The Albanian Orthodox Church, headed by His Beatitude Archbishop Anastasios, issued a statement on the war in Gaza on Tuesday.
The warring parties must give up repeated retaliations and work for an immediate ceasefire, the Church states:
The atrocities in Gaza, with tens of thousands of victims, mostly innocent civilians, children, the elderly, the sick, are causing deep suffering. There is a need to achieve an immediate ceasefire. The parties involved must show prudence and reasoning, prioritizing the value of each human being and peaceful coexistence over continued violence with incalculable consequences. Repeated retaliation does not solve the problem. All major powers must contribute to the way out of this catastrophic human and ecological tragedy.
