Pope Francis has been seen leaving hospital, 10 days after undergoing planned surgery to remove half his colon.
Witnesses said a car carrying Francis, 84, was seen leaving Rome’s Gemelli Polytechnic hospital on Wednesday morning.
It was a planned procedure, scheduled for early July when the pope’s audiences are suspended anyway and Francis would normally take some time off.
