Lampedusa benennt Pier nach Papst Franziskus

The article reports that Pope Francis has been honored by having a pier on the Italian island of Lampedusa renamed after him. The pier, previously called Molo Favaloro, will now be known as Molo Papa Francesco. This renaming aims to commemorate Pope Francis' advocacy for refugees. The papal visit included a ceremony where he blessed a memorial plaque dedicated to his predecessor, Pope Francis. During his visit, the pope greeted migrants who had been brought to the pier from a reception center on the island. He also visited a cemetery where many migrants lost their lives at sea and paid respects at a monument marking the gateway to Europe.
