Thousands march with candlelight praying for health of Pope Francis

Thousands of people attended a candlelight vigil and pray for the health of Pope Francis as they march to the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral and Plaza de Mayo in Argentina.

Pope Francis's condition remained stable but complex on March 7, as he battles pneumonia in hospital a day after releasing an audio message in which the 88-year-old sounded weak and breathless. The message broadcast to pilgrims in St Peter's Square on Thursday evening was the first time the world had heard the pope's voice since he was admitted to Rome's Gemelli hospital on February 14.
