On Saturday night, delegations began arriving at the Vatican for the Pope's funeral.
A long convoy of escorted executive cars drove through one of the streets of Rome around midnight local time: delegations began to arrive at the Vatican, where the funeral of Pope Francis will be held on Saturday, April 26.
According to Vedomosti, citing a statement from the Vatican, Francis' funeral ceremony will begin at 10 a.m. local time (11:00 a.m. Moscow time) in St. Peter's Cathedral.
Since April 23, the coffin with the body of the pontiff has been on display in St. Peter's Cathedral and anyone could say goodbye to the deceased Pope. As the journalist reports Newsler.ru from Rome, during all three days when the coffin with the body of Pope Francis was displayed in St. Peter's Cathedral, there were huge queues: people occupied the place from the night to have time to go to the body of the pontiff and say goodbye to him.
US President Donald Trump, French President Emmanuel Macron, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, and Argentine President Javier Miley are planning to attend the funeral of Pope Francis. Olga Lyubimova, Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation, is expected to attend the funeral of the pontiff from Russia.
The passage of one of the motorcades was captured Newsler.ru . Our correspondent from Rome reports that the streets are constantly being cleaned along the route of the motorcades, which is not very typical for Rome. Garbage was also regularly taken out here, to the delight of local residents.
