Vatican Press Office Director Matteo Bruni announced that Pope Francis had a restful night, enjoyed his breakfast, and spent the morning reading newspapers.
The 88-year-old Pontiff has been receiving treatment at the Agostino Gemelli University Hospital in Rome for the past three days due to a multi-microbial respiratory infection.
According to Italian media reports, his condition remains stable. However, after a partial modification of his treatment, certain microbiological test results have shown signs of improvement.
Despite his hospitalization, Pope Francis remained engaged in humanitarian concerns. On both Saturday and Sunday, he reached out to a Catholic parish in the Gaza Strip to inquire about the well-being of the faithful and the civilian population amid the ongoing crisis.
