Pope Francis on Sunday prayed for victims of the stampede in Seoul that killed more than 150 people during a Halloween event.
Following his traditional Angelus address at Saint Peter's Square, Francis asked the faithful to pray "for the so many, especially young people, who died last night in Seoul, the tragic consequence of the sudden crush of the crowd." (AFP)
