The Christian world mourns Pope Francis, who passed away in the Vatican. The Catholic Church leader was recently released from a five -week hospital following severe pneumonia from which he suffered, and died this morning at the age of 88.
His funeral is expected to be prepared within four to six days. Usually, we are violinists in the underground complex of the Holy Peter, where more than 100 of the past leaders of the Catholic Church are buried, but Francis has previously stated that he chose Santa Maria Magura Basilica in Rome, one of his favorite churches, as his burial. If he is buried there, he will be the first pope this 100 years to be buried outside the Vatican.

Vatican announces the death of the Pope
As part of his demand to humble his testimony ceremonies, he also ordered him to bury him in one closet and not in three, the terms within each other, as used to be in the past. Another testimony to Francis' modesty is the fact that during his tenure he refused to live in a palace designed for the Pope, and lived in a humble residence, "Santa Marta", within the Vatican complex.
In AP's article after Francis's death, the news agency described the Pope as a man "who fascinated the world with his modesty and concern for the poor, and on the other hand, he angered the conservatives when criticizing the capitalism and referring to the climate crisis." In relation to the built -in conservatism of the Vatican, Francis brought a new spirit, led liberal reforms in the church and a relatively open approach to the LGBTs considered a breakthrough.
