Global National: May 7, 2025 | No pope elected on first day of conclave
More than 130 cardinals from around the world are now taking part in a conclave to elect the successor to Pope Francis. Redmond Shannon looks at how Vatican City’s Sistine Chapel signalled no new pope was chosen after the first ballot, and the anticipation for a decision.
The female complainant in the high-profile world junior sexual assault trial was grilled by defence lawyers Wednesday over what they allege are “inaccuracies” in her statements. Seán O’Shea reports on the testimony.
Pakistan’s military says civilians were among at least 30 killed after an Indian missile attack in the Pakistani side of the disputed Kashmir region. As Redmond Shannon explains, it’s retaliation against a terrorist attack in Indian-administered Kashmir and has stoked fears both nations are headed toward a nuclear war.
Plus, dozens of cardinals who were relatively unknown before Pope Francis’ death became the centre of international media ahead of the conclave, mostly because of the 2024 film ‘Conclave.’ Jeff Semple hears from the experts about how the film compares to real life.
