Pope Leo XIV appeared at St. Peter’s Square on Sunday to deliver a blessing, marking his return to the Vatican following surgery. The 71-year-old pontiff underwent a procedure last Tuesday to remove a tumor from the lower lobe of his right lung.

Catholic faithful gathered in large numbers at the Vatican to welcome the Pope back following the medical intervention. The event served as the pontiff's first public appearance since the operation.
