Pope Francis, the 266th leader of the Roman Catholic Church, has died at the age of 88. The Vatican confirmed that he passed away at 7:35 a.m. local time on Monday, April 21, following a lengthy battle with pneumonia and related complications.
Born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Pope Francis was the first Jesuit, first Latin American, and first non-European pontiff in over 1,200 years. Elected in 2013, his papacy was marked by a bold push for reform, social justice, environmental advocacy, and efforts to make the Church more inclusive.
The world now mourns a historic and transformative figure whose legacy will shape the Church for decades to come.
