Pope Leo has arrived in Turkey at the start of the first foreign trip of his papacy.
During his visit he will mark an historic Christian anniversary, before heading to Lebanon days after Israeli airstrikes on its capital, Beirut.
Visits to both countries had originally been planned by the late Pope Francis.
Pope Leo said the message of his trip is to show that "all men (and) women can truly be brothers and sisters, in spite of differences, in spite of different religions, in spite of different beliefs".
