SAN CRISTOBAL DE LA LAGUNA, Spain (AP) — Pope Leo XIV warned people smugglers on Friday that they will face God’s wrath for exploiting the desperation of migrants, demanding they stop and repent during his final day in this epicenter of the African migration route to Europe.
“Break those chains and free those you hold in bondage,” Leo said in a message to human traffickers during a meeting with humanitarian aid organizations in the Canary Islands that help migrants.
