Pope Leo tells faithful in St . Peter Square he will gradually resume duties after cancer surgery

Pope Leo addressed the faithful gathered in St. Peter's Square, announcing that he will gradually resume his duties following cancer surgery. The crowd responded with cheers as the pontiff appeared in the window overlooking the square to deliver his traditional blessing.

This appearance follows an announcement made by the Pope one week prior during the same occasion, where he revealed that a nodule had been located on his lung and would require surgical removal.
