‘Pope Francis’ Death a Shock…’: Notre-Dame Bells Toll 88 Times as Believers Mourn Pope’s Passing
As news of Pope Francis’ death at the age of 88 spread around the world, the iconic bells of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris tolled 88 times in a powerful tribute to the late pontiff.
Tourists and locals alike gathered in solemn reflection on Easter Monday, expressing shock, grief, and admiration for a pope remembered for his humility and humanity.
In this emotional report, hear from visitors moved to tears outside the cathedral — including a Canadian tourist who called him "so human," and an Argentinian traveler still in disbelief.
Watch exclusive visuals of candle-lit crowds, breaking news alerts being read on phones, and voices reflecting on the legacy of a pope who changed the Catholic Church.
President Trump has signed a landmark U.S.–Ukraine minerals deal, granting Washington priority access to Kyiv’s natural resources while backing post-war rebuilding. Just moments after the agreement, Trump approved $50 million in aid to Ukraine, signaling a major policy shift. Critics point to his earlier boasts of ending the war in “one day,” contrasting with rising tensions and a stalled peace process. A Vatican meeting with Zelensky followed Pope Francis’ funeral, marking Trump’s first real defiance of Putin. The move has stunned Russia and could reshape the war’s diplomatic landscape.

Cardinal Angelo Becciu has officially withdrawn from the May 7 papal conclave under intense legal and ethical scrutiny. Once a top Vatican official, Becciu was convicted of embezzlement and now steps aside “for the good of the Church,” following Pope Francis’ private instructions barring his vote. His dramatic exit reshapes the high-stakes race to succeed Pope Francis. With 135 electors under 80 years old set to vote in the Sistine Chapel, Cardinals Parolin, Tagle, Zuppi, and Turkson emerge as key contenders to lead 1.4 billion Catholics worldwide.
