Pope Leo leaves Beirut after Lebanon go to

A farewell ceremony is held at Beirut International Airport for Pope Leo XIV, who’s concluding a go to to Turkey and Lebanon.

The Pope celebrated Lebanon’s custom of interfaith coexistence on Monday as a beacon of hope for a conflict-torn area, as he requested for “the divine gift of peace” alongside the nation’s Christian and Muslim spiritual leaders.

Leo acquired a raucous, ululating welcome from the crowds and a honest welcome from its religious leaders on his first full day in Lebanon, the place billboards along with his picture dotted highways across the capital.

Thousands of extraordinary Lebanese braved a gentle rain within the morning to line his motorcade route, some throwing flower petals and rice on his automobile in a gesture of welcome.
