Pope Francis on Wednesday at the Vatican met a group of 15 young refugees - nine boys and six girls - from several different countries.

The youngsters, who are being cared for by the Vatican, greeted Francis at its Santa Marta hotel, where he lives.

They do not yet have documents allowing them to travel to other countries, but wanted to wish Francis a safe journey to Poland, where he was due to begin a 5-day visit later on Wednesday, the Vatican said.

During the visit, the Pope will attend the World Youth Day celebrations taking place in the southern city of Krakow from 26-31 July.

A group of young Syrian refugees travelled to Poland on Monday for World Youth Day with a delegation from the Community of Saint Egidio, the Catholic charity said in a statement.
