  • Before his death, Pope Francis asked that the vehicle be used to help injured and malnourished children in the war-torn Palestinian enclave.

Pope Francis's former popemobile, a white, open-air vehicle used during his visit to the Holy Land in 2014, is being transformed into a mobile health clinic to serve children in Gaza. The initiative, led by the U.S.-based charity Caritas Baby Hospital, aims to provide essential medical services to children in the region, where access to healthcare has been severely impacted by ongoing conflicts.
