Pope Leo greeted thousands of worshippers on Tuesday as he arrived at Beirut’s waterfront to lead a major Catholic Mass expected to draw nearly 100,000 people. The first U.S. pope concluded his three-day visit to Lebanon with a powerful appeal for peace, warning that humanity’s future is threatened by the relentless wars shaking the Middle East. His visit came as Lebanon continues to feel the impact of the Israel–Hezbollah conflict and the wider Gaza war, deepening concerns in a country with the region’s largest Christian population. #popeleo #beirut #apt
