Vatican City, Apr 14 (Sputnik) Pope Francis has called on the crowd that gathered at the St. Peter's Square in the Vatican City on Palm Sunday to pray for peace in the Holy Land and the Middle East.

"I once again appeal to the young people and to all to pray for peace in the world, but especially for peace in the Holy Land and the Middle East," the pope said.

Palm Sunday marks the start of Holy Week leading to Easter Sunday, and commemorates the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem.
