Pope Francis delivers Easter plea for peace


Pope Francis has delivered a passionate plea for peace in his first Easter Sunday message since being elected.
Francis used his "Urbi et Orbi" address to call for peace in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and across the globe.
He singled out "dear Syria", saying: "How much blood has been shed! And how much suffering must there still be before a political solution is found?"
Easter is the most important festival in the Christian calendar and pilgrims have attended church across the world.
