Pope Leo XIV sets off for Algeria to begin Africa tour | AFP

From AFP News Agency.

Pope Leo XIV heads to Algeria for the start of an 11-day tour of Africa, the first international trip of his papacy that riskes being overshadowed by criticism from US President Donald Trump. Leo will become the first ever leader of the world’s Catholics to visit the Muslim country of Algeria. Just hours before he left Rome, at around 0700 GMT, Leo became the target of criticism from Trump, who railed against the pope’s entreaties for an end to violence in the Iran war.
