The Pope prays for the victims of the attack in Nice: may no man spill his brother's blood, 17.07.2016

Vatican City, 17 July 2016 – "The pain in our hearts is still raw following the attack that, last Thursday night, claimed many innocent lives, including those of many children", said the Pope after today's Angelus prayer. "I am close to every family and to the entire French nation in mourning. May God, the good Father, welcome all the victims in His peace and console their relatives. May He dispel every plan of terror and death, so that no many many ever dare spill the blood of his brother. A paternal and fraternal embrace to all the French nation. And now, all together, thinking of this massacre, of the victims and their families, let us pray in silence: 'Hail Mary'".
