People walk on the Via della Conciliazione street with St Peter's Basilica in the background ahead of late Pope Francis' funeral near the Vatican, in Rome on April 26, 2025. Pope Francis, champion of the poor and the Church's first Latin American leader, will be honoured April 26 with a funeral attended by world leaders and tens of thousands of Catholic faithful. The Argentine pontiff, who died on April 21, 2025, aged 88, sought to create a more open-minded Church during his 12-year papacy, and many emotional tributes have been made -- with 250,000 people paying respects at his coffin in St Peter's Basilica.
