Pope Francis releases first audio message since hospitalisation

Pope Francis' voice has been heard for the first time since being admitted to hospital last month in a newly released audio message.

In the recording, shared with worshippers at the start of the evening Rosary prayer in St Peter's Square, he said: "I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers for my health from the Square, I am with you from here.

"May God bless you and the Virgin protect you. Thank you."

The audio message was recorded from Rome's Gemelli Hospital, where the 88-year-old has been receiving treatment for double pneumonia since being admitted last month.
