Israel's military massed troops on the border with Gaza as airstrikes pummeled the Palestinian enclave in the wake of Saturday's attack by Hamas.
The Vatican said it was ready to mediate between Hamas and Israel to prevent further violence and facilitate the return of hostages held by Hamas. Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican secretary of state, told Vatican media on Friday that the attacks on Israel by Hamas were 'inhuman' and he echoed Pope Francis' call for the freeing of Israeli hostages held by the militant group.
But he also called for negotiations and for Israel to limit itself to a proportional response in Gaza. 'It is the right of those who are attacked to defend themselves, but even legitimate defense must respect the parameter of proportionality,' Parolin said. 'I do not know how much room for dialogue there can be between Israel and the Hamas militia, but if there is—and we hope there is—it should be pursued immediately and without delay.
