Pope Francis had two private meetings: one with the family members of victims in Gaza, Palestine, suffering from the war in Gaza. And another with relatives of those kidnapped in Israel.
The Pope greeted each family member but spoke very little.
The Vatican defined these two meetings as "humanitarian" to avoid any criticism from one side or the other. Pope Francis met with simple people from different groups who are united by their suffering.
