Pope Francis was resting Monday morning after a quiet night, on the 10th day of his hospitalisation for a complex lung infection that has provoked the early stages of kidney failure, the Vatican said.

The one-line statement didn't say if Francis, 88, had woken up.

“The night passed well, the pope slept and is resting,” it said.
