Rome, 17 May (LaPresse) – ‘Tomorrow I will attend the Mass marking the start of Leone's pontificate. I intend to convey a sincere message of friendship, respect and dialogue. And I want to invite him to the Holy Land, here with us. To meet the Israeli people.’ This was stated by Israeli President Isaac Herzog in an interview with Avvenire. ‘The pain of my people on 7 October has not really been understood,’ Herzog added. ‘It was not “just” a massacre of people who lived with those who killed, burned and raped them. We feel the pain of the Palestinians as our own. There is only one key: the return of the hostages.’
