It's unclear when the vehicle would be on the ground in Gaza, as Israel blocked humanitarian aid from entering Gaza beginning on March 2, 2025.

One of the late Pope Francis’ vehicles – otherwise known as “popemobiles” – is set to be sent to the Gaza strip and converted into a mobile healthcare unit, per Holy See-sanctioned media.

Before he died, Pope Francis donated one of his popemobiles to be converted into a mobile health unit to serve the children of Gaza, officials said Monday.The Jerusalem and Sweden branches of the Vatican’s Caritas charitable federation released photos of the repurposed vehicle on Monday.
