Leo urged an end to the ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. "I carry in my heart the suffering of the beloved Ukrainian people," he said. "Let us do everything possible to reach a genuine, just and lasting peace as soon as possible. May all prisoners be freed and children be able to return to their families."

It was the first time that Leo had returned to the loggia since he first appeared to the world on Thursday evening following his remarkable election as pope. (CBS)
