Pope Francis criticised Israeli attacks in Lebanon that go "beyond morality" on Sunday. His comments came in response to questions about Israeli air strikes that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, along with civilians.
On his flight back to Rome from Belgium, the pope said countries must not go "over the top" in using military force.
"Even in war, there is a morality to safeguard," he said. "War is immoral. But the rules of war give it some morality."
