A hospitalised Pope Francis sent prayers Sunday to victims and survivors of a deadly fire in a North Macedonian nightclub, in a message sent by the Vatican's secretary of state.

The Holy Father wished "to convey to the families of the dead, mostly young people, the expression of his deep condolence, signifying spiritual closeness to the wounded," wrote Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin in a telegram addressed to the bishop of Skopje, Kiro Stojanov.
