Pope Francis’s funeral to be held at St Peter’s Basilica on Saturday

Pope Francis’s funeral, held at St Peter's Square in Vatican City on Saturday, attracted a host of world leaders, including Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and Prince William. The pope, who had suffered from severe complications after a stroke earlier that week, died quickly without suffering, attended by his team of medical staff before succumbing to heart failure. His body will be placed in a single wooden coffin at the basilica for a more modest burial than traditional poper funerals, which typically involved three coffins.
