Pope Leo arrived in Lebanon on Sunday, where he is expected to appeal for peace in a country that is a continued target of Israeli air strikes, on the second and final leg of his first overseas trip as leader of the Catholic Church.
The first U.S. pope flew from Turkey, where he has been visiting for four days, and warned that humanity's future was at risk because of the world's unusual number of bloody conflicts and condemned violence in the name of religion.
