Pope Leo XIV's Christmas Homily on Gaza and Ukraine
6,000 attended Mass inside St. Peter's Basilica and 5,000 outside.
He compared God's word to 'a fragile tent' and linked it to Jesus' human fragility.
He called for peace through dialogue and prayed for Ukraine, addressing defenseless populations and young people forced to take arms.
He delivered the Urbi et Orbi blessing, summarizing the year's challenges.
The Holy Year closes on Jan 6 after his May election.
