Pope Francis visits young Ukrainians being treated at Babin Jeju Children’s Hospital

Pope Francis wanted to visit the young Ukrainians admitted to the Babin Cezu Catholic Children’s Hospital this afternoon in Rome.

The pope had not announced this special visit. He wanted to greet 15 children and talk to their parents. In his well-known, direct and humane way, the pope caressed the little ones and cheered their parents.

These are children with neurological problems, oncological diseases, but also with serious injuries due to the bombings.

Since the beginning of the Russian offensive against Ukraine, 50 children have been taken to Babin Jeju Hospital. Most are accompanied by their parents, but there are also minors who, unfortunately, have been left orphaned and who can only seek the warmth of doctors, nurses and volunteers.
