(LifeSiteNews) — On Tuesday, Christian leaders in the Lebanese city of Tyre called on the international community to take immediate action after the Israeli military issued an evacuation warning for the city’s Christian district. The evacuation warning marked a significant escalation for the Christian area, which had largely avoided the fighting up to that point, AP News reports. Leaders from the Melkite Greek Catholic Church, Greek Orthodox, and Maronite Catholic Churches all petitioned neighboring countries, as well as the Lebanese government, to “take immediate and serious action to spare the old quarter of Tyre from destruction and human tragedies.” Israel issued the evacuation warning after carrying out airstrikes on nearby cities the previous week — attacks that left eight people dead and several others injured. In a statement posted to Facebook, Metropolitan Archbishop George Iskandar of Tyre, who leads the Melkite Greek Catholic Church in southern Lebanon, said he intended …

Lyhanna The outcry sparked by the murder of 11-year-old Lyhanna in France shows no sign of abating. More than a week after the girl’s body was found, the case has taken on a national dimension, fuelled by a series of revelations about the past of the main suspect, Jérôme Barella, as well as the alleged failings of the institutions responsible for protecting minors. Across France, rallies have been held outside courthouses. In Paris, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Marseille, Lille, and Lyon, thousands of people have gathered to pay tribute to the victim and demand answers. In many cities, participants have condemned what they see as a series of failures that allowed a man who had already been reported on several occasions to evade the justice system for several years. As the days have passed, revelations about Jérôme Barella’s history have reinforced this sense of bewilderment. Several proceedings against him for sexual offences against minors were reportedly known to the authorities before the …

Worse than Germany: On 3 June, as part of the events surrounding the homosexual march of Turin, the "Catholic" homosex group La Tenda di Gionata supported a discussion on polyamory. In September 2025, Leo XIV permitted this group a march into St Peter's basilica. The recent event in Turin featured the decadent films 'The Sex of Angels' by Xavier Villaverde and 'Polyamory Explained to Mothers and Grandmothers' by Roberto Pérez Toledo. La Tenda di Gionata has also published a number of articles and testimonies on polyamory on its website, including interviews with members of the group 'Polifamiglie', reflections by self-described polyamorous Catholics, and discussions on family life, faith, and participation in the Church by people in polyamorous relationships. #newsInsrpmeofk

In his homily in Madrid on June 7, Leo XIV used the phrase that “the risen Lord [...] becomes bread to satiate our hunger for life.” Catholic theology rejects the idea that Christ is changed into bread (the heresy commonly called impanation). At the Transubstantiation, the opposite happens: the substance of bread becomes the Body of Christ. Read in a literal sense, the phrase “becomes bread” is at least ambiguous. Such language can only be understood in some poetic sense. A normal formulation for a pope or even simple Catholic theologian would be: “The sacrifice of Christ is made sacramentally present under the appearance of bread.” #newsRuzriacybc

French prosecutors have dropped all cases against six Catholics arrested after the June 6 incident at Saint-Laurent Church in Paris during the controversial Nuit Blanche event. The six Catholics spent up to 44 hours in police custody. In the end, prosecutors found that “no offence was sufficiently established.” Video footage showed a general scuffle, but investigators could not identify any active wrongdoing by those arrested. Many Catholics say they were simply praying in their church before being removed to make way for an event they viewed as disrespectful to a sacred place.
New Vatican Lay-Prefect Sides with Israel: On 24 October 2023, during a conference at the Catholic University of Steubenville, Montse Alvardo, the new - civilly divorced - Zionist Prefect of the Vatican Dicastery of Communication, spoke about "antisemitism". She expressed sympathy for the Jewish experience, stating that, biblically, "we're called to pick a side", describing the victims of 7 October as "martyrs", and arguing that some contemporary protest movements are driven by hatred of Jews. She also criticised the combination of Palestinian and homosexual activism within the same protest coalitions. Key quotes: - 'We teach [the Holocaust] to our children. We fight for people to understand that it is part of our story too.” - 'I would add those I call martyrs from 7 October to that.' - 'Rabbi Soloveitchik talked about the flag of reproductive justice alongside the Palestinian flag and Hamas. At a protest, I saw the LGBTQ+ flag alongside them. Those people would be stoned and lynched …More
