Pope Leo XIV Begins Africa Tour
The pontiff's tour includes stops in Cameroon, Angola, and Equatorial Guinea, covering nearly 18,000 kilometers over 18 flights.
In Algiers, he will honor St. Augustine, the locally born theologian who inspired his religious spirituality.
The visit comes at a time of global conflict, with the Pope using his platform to urge leaders to address poverty and displacement.
Despite the historic nature of the trip, it has been partially overshadowed by public criticism from President Donald Trump regarding the Pope's stance on the Iran war.
