Pope Leo XIV has been discharged from Rome’s Gemelli Hospital, just four days after an operation to remove a cancerous growth from his lung.
The 71-year-old walked unaided to his waiting car, stopping to speak to well-wishers.
The Vatican said the Pope will give the traditional Angelus prayer and blessing to a crowd in St Peter’s Square on Sunday, as he did last week when he surprised the world by announcing the surgery.
