Details: As he concluded services in St Peter's Square in the Vatican on Sunday (24 March), Pope Francis urged people to pray for "martyred Ukraine" and those who have been cut off from power supply due to the latest Russian attack on civilian infrastructure.

Quote: "Let us pray for all our brothers and sisters who are suffering because of the war; in a special way, I have in mind the martyred Ukraine, where so many people are without electricity due to intense attacks against infrastructure, which, besides causing death and suffering, raise the risk of an even-greater humanitarian catastrophe. Let us not forget martyred Ukraine, and let us also think of Gaza which is suffering greatly, along with other places of war."
