Pope Francis 'Defies Doctors' to Bless Crowds at Vatican | First Appearance Since near-death Battle

In a powerful and emotional moment, 88-year-old Pope Francis made his first public appearance since battling a life-threatening case of pneumonia.

Just two weeks after being discharged from Gemelli Hospital, the pontiff surprised thousands as he was wheeled through Saint Peter’s Square following a special mass dedicated to the sick.

Despite doctors advising strict rest, Pope Francis chose to connect with the faithful, delivering a fragile yet moving message just ahead of Easter.

Witness the resilience, faith, and spirit of a leader who refuses to stay silent in the face of adversity.

ā€˜It Was A Mistake…’ Israel ADMITS ā€œMistakeā€ After Gaza Church Strikes | Trump BLASTS Netanyahu [Video]

ā€˜It Was A Mistake…’ Israel ADMITS ā€œMistakeā€ After Gaza Church Strikes | Trump BLASTS Netanyahu

Gaza Church Strike: In a rare public rebuke, President Trump personally phoned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address the Israeli strike on Gaza's only Catholic Church, the Holy Family Church. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Trump’s reaction was "not positive," and said Netanyahu agreed the strike was a mistake. Israel has expressed deep regret, stating stray ammunition hit the church, killing three civilians and injuring nine, including the parish priest. The incident, which has drawn international condemnation—from the Vatican to Italy and France—adds fresh strain to U.S.–Israel relations. Netanyahu pledged a full investigation, emphasizing Israel’s commitment to protecting civilians and holy sites. As global outrage mounts over one of Gaza's most sacred landmarks being struck, Trump's demand for accountability signals growing U.S. intolerance of collateral harm amidst the Gaza conflict. #TrumpNetanyahuCall #GazaChurchStrike #HolyFamilyChurch #IsraelMistake #UScallsForJustice #CollateralDamage #GazaConflict #CatholicChurchGaza #TrumpRebukesIsrael #NetanyahuRegrets #InternationalCondemnation #VaticanResponse #ProtectCivilians #HumanitarianCrisis #MiddleEastDiplomacy #WarEthics #ReligiousSiteSafety #GazaWar #TrumpDiplomacy #GlobalOutrage ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~
