    Pope Francis condemns bombing of Aleppo

    (AFP) - Pope Francis on Wednesday said those behind the bombing of Aleppo, where Syrian and Russian forces have conducted
    days of deadly airstrikes, will have to "answer before God."

    "I appeal to the conscience of those responsible for the bombardment, who will have to answer before God," the pope said at his weekly address in St
    Peter's square, without naming Syria or Russia.
