Pope Leo recently visited the Italian port of Ostia, where a group of young people are celebrating with the performance of the dabke, an Arabic folk dance. The Bel Espoir, a schooner carrying individuals from Libya and Egypt, is part of a broader mission to promote peace across the Mediterranean Sea. Participants expressed gratitude for the Pope’s visit, noting the significance of the opportunity to connect with the spiritual leader and foster goodwill. Jesus Marro, a Spaniard, described the encounter as a moment of great significance for him. The mission continues to focus on collaborative efforts towards peaceful relations.
