Pope Francis condemned Friday night’s Paris massacre, calling the attacks a part of a disorganized World War III.

“I am close to the people of France, to the families of the victims, and I am praying for all of them,” the pontiff said Saturday, according to the Vatican Radio. “I am moved and I am saddened. I do not understand — these things hard to understand.”

Francis called the wave of terrorist violence that killed at least 129 people “a piece” of the “piecemeal Third World War” and said the bloody rampage was “not human.”

“There is no religious or human justification for it,” he said when asked about the aforementioned war. “This is a piece of it.”The Friday night attacks — at a soccer stadium, a concert hall and a row of trendy cafes — left at least 350 more wounded and marked the deadliest violence to strike France since World War II.

French President Francois Hollande said Saturday that ISIS was behind the carnage.
The wave of bombing and gun attacks was an “act of war committed by a terrorist army, the Islamic State group, a jihadist army, against France, against the values that we defend everywhere in the world, against what we are: A free country that means something to the whole planet,” he said Saturday.

ISIS also took responsibility for the bloodshed and vowed to keep France “at the top of the list” of its targets.

“The stench of death will not leave their noses as long as they remain at the forefront of the Crusaders’ campaign, dare to curse our prophet, boast of a war on Islam in France, and strike Muslims in the lands of the caliphate with warplanes that were of no use to them in the streets and rotten alleys of Paris,” ISIS said in a statement.
