‘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.
In a dramatic turn of events, French President Emmanuel Macron’s announcement to recognise Palestine as a state at the upcoming United Nations General Assembly has triggered unrest in the French capital. As public sentiment intensifies, Paris witnessed targeted vandalism against the Israeli airline El Al’s office. While Macron's move has been praised by pro-Palestinian voices, it has also deepened political fault lines across Europe. This exclusive ground report brings you voices from France, reactions from legal experts and students, footage from protests across the continent, and the growing debate over Europe's shifting stance on Palestine.

Inside a peaceful Parisian park lies a powerful story of faith, exile, and identity. Every year, Tibetans gather at the Pagoda of Vincennes for the Sakya Monlam prayer—thousands of kilometers from their homeland. As tensions rise with China over the Dalai Lama’s successor, refugees like Tenzing and Lobsang share their fears, hopes, and ties to India—whom they call their “second homeland.” This is more than a spiritual gathering—it's a silent resistance for a forgotten people.

Gaza Church Strike: In a rare public rebuke, President Trump personally phoned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address the Israeli strike on Gaza's only Catholic Church, the Holy Family Church. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Trump’s reaction was "not positive," and said Netanyahu agreed the strike was a mistake. Israel has expressed deep regret, stating stray ammunition hit the church, killing three civilians and injuring nine, including the parish priest.
The incident, which has drawn international condemnation—from the Vatican to Italy and France—adds fresh strain to U.S.–Israel relations. Netanyahu pledged a full investigation, emphasizing Israel’s commitment to protecting civilians and holy sites. As global outrage mounts over one of Gaza's most sacred landmarks being struck, Trump's demand for accountability signals growing U.S. intolerance of collateral harm amidst the Gaza conflict.

An Israeli airstrike on the Holy Family Church compound in Gaza has killed three civilians and injured several others, including children and a parish priest. The Latin Patriarchate called it a "morally unjustified tragedy" as the church sheltered women, children, and the elderly. France, Italy, and the Vatican condemned the attack, demanding accountability. Pope Leo XIV expressed sorrow and urged a ceasefire. Israel has apologized and launched an investigation, stating religious sites are not intentionally targeted despite growing criticism.
