Italian post office sorts hundreds of letters arriving for new pope every day | AFP

In a vast hangar near Rome’s Fiumicino airport, piles of letters addressed to Pope Leo XIV are being sorted, sent by faithful all over the world to the head of the Catholic Church. "We receive hundreds of letters per day addressed to the pope with peaks of 100 kg per day, so we are talking about 500-550 kg per week on average," says Antonello Chidichimo, director of the sorting centre.
