Pope Francis has died early this morning at the age of 88. He was the first Latin American Pope. The Vatican said his life had been dedicated to the service of the Lord. Francis's body will tonight be placed in a coffin, which could be moved to St Peter's Basilica as early as Wednesday. The funeral will take place within a week. We hear tributes and reactions from those who knew him.(Photo: Pope Francis waves to people during his weekly general audience in St Peter's Square, Vatican City, 20 November 2024 (reissued 21 April 2025) Credit: Photo by Fabio Frustaci/ EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock)
