The Vatican says Pope Francis has been forced to use an oxygen mask for the first time, due to an “isolated” breathing crisis.

Sources say a coughing fit caused the 88-year-old to have a setback last night.

However the Vatican says the Pontiff went on to have a peaceful night and is resting this morning.
