The Vatican, December 9 (RHC)-- Pope Francis has repeated his call for a ceasefire in Gaza. 

On Saturday, the pope unveiled this year’s nativity scene at the Vatican.  It portrays baby Jesus in a crib lined with a Palestinian keffiyeh.

At the ceremony, a top Palestinian official praised the pope for his “ongoing efforts to end the genocide in Gaza and his steadfast support for the Palestinian cause.” Over the weekend, Pope Francis also called on U.S. authorities to commute the sentences of prisoners on death row.
