The pope fell down on the steps of the Vatican.
Infact verdict: Mostly True (60/100).
There is no evidence supporting the claim that Pope Francis fell on the steps of the Vatican. Instead, reports indicate that Pope Francis experienced a fall at his Vatican residence, leading to a bruise on his forearm. He did not suffer any fractures but did use a sling as a precautionary measure. These incidents highlight his ongoing health challenges, particularly with mobility.
