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.

Trump Welcomes to 'White' Refugees After Harsh U.S Immigration Crackdown – Media Cries 'Hypocrisy'

U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls “genocide.” But the move has sparked outrage and raised questions about hypocrisy as Trump continues his tough stance on immigration, particularly toward Black and Hispanic migrants. As the media focuses on the controversial land expropriation in South Africa, many are now calling out the double standard in U.S. immigration policy. #Trump #WhiteRefugees #SouthAfrica #ImmigrationHypocrisy #USAsylum #WhiteGenocide #MediaBias #Trump2025 #LandSeizure #BlackImmigration #USPolitics #ImmigrationPolicy #AsylumSeekers Also Read Cyril Ramaphosa Extends Condolences on the Passing of Pope Francis at Age 88 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-african-president-ramaphosa-condolences-pope-francis-passing-011-4130473.html?ref=DMDesc South Africa Looks to Strengthen Trade Relations with India and China Amidst US Tariff Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-africa-increases-trade-india-china-us-tariffs-011-4117633.html?ref=DMDesc South Africa Issues Warning on Human Trafficking After 23 Citizens Rescued from Myanmar :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-africa-cautions-citizens-human-trafficking-myanmar-011-4109177.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.102~HT.336~

Pope Leo XIV Meets Zelensky at Inauguration Mass | 1st American Pope Vows to end Russian-Ukraine War

In a historic and politically charged moment at the Vatican, Pope Leo XIV, the first American pontiff, shook hands with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and First Lady Olena Zelenska as his inaugural Mass drew to a close. But the gesture was more than ceremonial. In his first global address, Pope Leo XIV vowed to make “every effort” to help end the war in Ukraine and later condemned the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, saying people had been “reduced to famine.” World leaders—including U.S. Vice President JD Vance, UK Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner, and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney—looked on as faith and geopolitics collided in St. Peter’s Square. Is the new pope signaling a bold new era of Vatican diplomacy? Can faith intervene where politics has failed? #PopeLeoXIV #Zelensky #Vatican2025 #PapalInauguration #UkraineWar #GazaCrisis #CatholicChurch #FaithAndPolitics #FirstAmericanPope #JDVance #StPetersSquare #VaticanNews #WorldLeaders #PopeAndPeace #HumanitarianCrisis #ReligionAndGeopolitics ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.102~GR.124~
