Pope Francis has postponed a trip to crisis-hit Lebanon initially planned for June over health concerns, Lebanon's Tourism Minister Walid Nassar said on Monday.

Nassar did not specify the reasons for the postponement, but the pope who has suffered from pain in his knee was seen using a wheelchair for the first time at a public event on Thursday.
