Meanwhile, in Naples, before the celebrations of San Gennaro, a moved Cardinal Domenico Battaglia, Archbishop of Naples, played a dramatic video message from Father Gabriel Romanelli, parish priest of Gaza .

The situation remains dire throughout the Gaza Strip, with the bombings continuing. A war continues, and the deaths that have already claimed tens of thousands of lives continue: more than 18,000 children have been killed, and the hostages have yet to experience the right to live in freedom. The wounded and sick still have no access to treatment because the hospital lacks everything. Weapons have taken over .

"Peace," added Father Gabriel, "is a gift, and the Lord will give it to us if we continue with our sacrifices. We can all work together for peace; we must speak of peace with great sincerity and charity. We must truly be convinced that peace, as the fruit of justice, is possible, and convince everyone that it is possible, and that it is not a utopia. We continue to do good, the little we can to help people in spirit and in body."
