Pope Francis, the Pope of Vatican, will lead special prayers for peace.

The prayers will take place in St. Peter's Basilica, and that day was described as "a day of fasting, prayers, penance".

Yesterday, Pope Francis called once again for the release of hostages held in Gaza and the allowance of providing Gaza strip with.

He said during his weekly engagements: "I am always thinking about the grave situation in Palestine and Israel. I encourage the release of hostages and the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza."
