The video shows a Muslim climbing onto the altar, which is used for major liturgical celebrations presided over by Pope Francis.
He’s seen pulling off the altar cloth before being stopped by security in front of stunned tourists.
The altar is located just under the basilica’s famous stone canopy, designed by Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, which was recently restored.
The incident takes place during the Catholic Church’s jubilee year, with 32 million pilgrims expected to come to Rome in 2025.
The basilica has been preparing for an influx of visitors, given it’s a destination point for those coming to Rome for the jubilee.
