**以色列捣毁绑架嫌疑人的住宅**

以色列军队捣毁了涉嫌于6月绑架并杀害3名以色列少年的两名巴勒斯坦人的家。绑架和杀害以色列少年事件触发了一场导致2000多人死亡的战争。

以色列军方说，星期一捣毁了两名嫌疑人的家，并封锁了第3名嫌疑人的住宅。

嫌疑人卡瓦斯马7月被拘留，另两名嫌疑人目前仍在在逃。

在以色列军队捣毁嫌疑人住宅之际，以色列和哈马斯的5天停火临近期满，双方在停火期间未能就持久结束战斗达成一致。

停火将于星期一午夜结束。

以色列要求加沙地带的哈马斯激进分子解除武装，而巴勒斯坦人则要求以色列结束对加沙地带的8年封锁。

**Israeli Troops Demolish Homes of Kidnapping Suspects**

Israeli troops have demolished the homes of two Palestinians suspected in the kidnapping and killing of three Israeli teens in June, which helped sparked a war that has left more than 2,000 people dead.

The army said it demolished the homes Monday and sealed off the home of a third suspect.

One of the men, Hussam Kawasma, was taken into custody in July, while the other two remain at large.

The demolitions come as the two sides near the end of a five-day cease-fire during which negotiators have not been able to agree on a lasting end to the fighting.

The truce runs out at the end of the day Monday.

Israel has been seeking the demilitarization of Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip, while Palestinians want Israel to end its eight-year blockade of Gaza.

**教宗方济各呼吁韩朝和解**

教宗方济各星期一在结束对亚洲的首次访问之际，呼吁韩国与充满仇恨的共产主义对手朝鲜实现和解。

教宗在首尔的明洞教堂主持弥撒，呼吁在动荡不定的朝鲜半岛实现和平。韩国总统朴槿惠也在场聆听。教宗说，只有通过原谅才能实现和解，尽管原谅可能看上去是“不可能、不现实甚至有时是令人反感的”。

韩国天主教人士敦促平壤派遣官方操控的朝鲜天主教协会代表团到首尔参加弥撒，但平壤拒绝了这一邀请，理由是韩国和美国将举行年度联合军事演习。美韩军演于星期一开始。

朝鲜曾经誓言，如果美韩进行军演，朝鲜就将对韩国进行“无情的”、先发制人的打击。

Pope Francis Issues Farewell Message of Peace on Korean Peninsula

Pope Francis ended his first visit to Asia Monday with a call for reconciliation between South Korea and its bitter communist rival, North Korea.

The pontiff issued his call for peace on the troubled Korean peninsula at a Mass at Seoul's Myeongdong cathedral that was attended by South Korean President Park Geun-hye. He said reconciliation would only come through forgiveness, even though it may seem "impossible, impractical and even at times repugnant."

Catholic officials in South Korea urged Pyongyang to send a delegation from the state-run Korean Catholic Association to Seoul for the Mass, but the regime rejected the invitation, citing the annual joint military drills between South Korea and the United States, which also began Monday.

The North has vowed to launch a "merciless" preemptive strike against the South if the drills take place.
