Pope Leo XIV, history’s first American pope, vowed Sunday to work for unity so that the Catholic Church becomes a sign of peace in the world, offering a message of communion during an inaugural Mass in St. Peter’s Square before an estimated 200,000 pilgrims, presidents, patriarchs and princes.

Among the people gathered in the square were a group of faithful from Peru, where Pope Leo XIV lived for years as a missionary first and then as archbishop, obtaining Peruvian citizenship.

"We are a Peruvian community that has come to shout and express our love for this Pope who is also Peruvian and really fills us with joy," said Yul Tito, a faithful from the Ancash region of Peru.

Leo officially opened his pontificate by taking his first popemobile tour through the piazza, a rite of passage that has become synonymous with the papacy’s global reach and mediatic draw.

RESTRICTION SUMMARY:

London, Kentucky – 17 May 2025

1. Various aerial shots of destroyed home and neighborhood ++MUTE++

STORYLINE:

Residents in Kentucky and Missouri were left to dig through wreckage and seek temporary housing Sunday after tornadoes and severe storms swept through parts of the Midwest and South and left dozens of people dead.

Kentucky was hardest hit as a devastating tornado damaged hundreds of homes, tossed vehicles and left many people homeless. At least 18 people were killed, most of them in southeastern Kentucky's Laurel County, and 10 more were critically injured.

Parts of two dozen state roads were closed, and some could take days to reopen, according to Gov. Andy Beshear, who said the death toll could still rise.

The latest Kentucky storms were part of a weather system Friday that killed seven in Missouri and two in northern Virginia, authorities said.

The system also spawned tornadoes in Wisconsin, brought punishing heat to Texas and temporarily enveloped parts of Illinois — including Chicago — in a pall of dust on an otherwise sunny day.

A smattering of flood warnings were issued Sunday for parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and other southern states, according to the National Weather Service.

"I collect wood and sell it to get the fee for the (animal-drawn) cart that we will travel in. I am thrown here between the Twam area and area 17 in a tent. I don’t have money for transportation. We collect some wood along with some plastic, and sell it to leave (with the money of the sales.) When the Jews (referring to Israel) want a truce, Hamas refuses it. And when Hamas wants a truce, the Jews refuse it. Both sides are in agreement on exterminating the Palestinian people. For God's sake, have mercy on us. We are tired of displacement. We sold (We sold - AUDIO DROPS OUT) our cell phones, we sold our clothes (we sold our clothes - AUDIO DROPS OUT). We have nothing left to sell. For God's sake, we want mercy. Enough displacement." ++AUDIO AS INCOMING++

3. Various of Yassin pulling cart of wood UPSOUND (Arabic) "A kilo of flour costs 95 shekels. It is not enough for two people. May God punish whoever is behind this..."

4. Various of people carrying belongings and fleeing on foot, carts and vehicles

STORYLINE:

Families were fleeing Jabaliya, in northern Gaza, on Sunday after Israel launched “extensive” new ground operations in the territory.

Travelling on foot, in donkey carts, or in the few cars still running, residents carried whatever belongings they could.

“I don’t have money for transportation. We collect a little wood and plastic and sell it to use money for evacuation,” one resident, Abu Mohammad Yassin, a said.

“When the Jews want a truce, Hamas refuses, and when Hamas wants a truce, the Jews refuse it. Both sides agree to exterminate the Palestinian people. For God’s sake, have mercy on us.”

Israel launched the offensive on Saturday with the aims of seizing territory, displacing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to Gaza's south and taking greater control of aid distribution.

Airstrikes in the new offensive have killed at least 103 people, including dozens of children, overnight and into Sunday, hospitals and medics said, and forced northern Gaza's main hospital to close.

Israel's military had no immediate comment, but its statement announcing the ground operations said that preliminary strikes over the past week killed dozens of militants and struck more than 670 targets.

Israel blames civilian casualties on Hamas because the militant group operates from civilian areas.

Meanwhile, an Israeli blockade on food, medicine and other supplies is now in its third month, with global food security experts warning of famine across the territory of more than 2 million people.

Israel has said it is pressuring Hamas to agree to a temporary ceasefire on Israel's terms - one that would free Israeli hostages held in Gaza, but wouldn't necessarily end the war.

Hamas says it wants a full withdrawal of Israeli forces and a pathway to ending the war as part of any new ceasefire deal.

RESTRICTION SUMMARY:

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Lisbon, Portugal - 18 May 2025

1. Various of Socialist Party leader, Pedro Nuno Santos, arriving, casting vote and leaving

2. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Pedro Nuno Santos, Socialist Party leader:

“What I wish for is a peaceful day, but with high electoral participation and respect for everyone, so that episodes like the ones we had this morning, of violence towards a socialist, can be avoided. (Socialist party politician was allegedly hit in the face by alleged supporter of far-right Chega party) I think we have to respond firmly against any type of violence and aggression, defend democracy and civic participation. And I believe that the overwhelming majority of Portuguese people do not identify with acts of violence, on the contrary, they respect the choices of others, even if they are different from ours.”

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Pedro Nuno Santos, Socialist Party leader:

“As you can imagine, my expectations are good, but at this moment, I can only wait for the participation of the Portuguese people in this vote, nothing more than that. I can say nothing more than that, as you can imagine, at this moment. But I hope the best for my country.”

++ENDS ON SOUNDBITE++

STORYLINE:

Socialist leader Pedro Nuno Santos, his party’s candidate for prime minister, cast his vote on Sunday in Portugal's general election.

Voters are returning to the polls for a third general election in three years, as the country’s increasingly fragmented political landscape defies efforts to unite behind policies on pressing national issues such as immigration, housing and the cost of living.

Hopes that the ballot might end the worst spell of political instability in decades for the European Union country of 10.6 million people could be dashed, however.

Polls suggest the election is poised to deliver yet another minority government, leaving the Portuguese back where they started.

For the past 50 years two parties have dominated politics in Portugal, with the centre-right Social Democrats and the centre-left Socialist Party alternating in power.

They are likely to come out on top in this ballot, too.

But public frustration with their record in government has fuelled the growth of new alternatives in recent years.

That has denied the bigger parties enough seats in Parliament to snare a majority needed to ensure they serve a full four-year term.

2. Camera

3. Simion walking away from podium

4. SOUNDBITE (English) George Simion, AUR party leader, Romanian presidential candidate:

“If the elections are fair and free... I repeat, we have two members in each voting station, so there are witnesses there... if the result will be switched in any voting station, we will contest. If the result will not be switched, and we have fair and free elections there's no point in contesting, I think, no?"

5. Wide of statement

6. Wide of palace of parliament

STORYLINE:

Far-right Romanian AUR party leader George Simion said in Bucharest on Sunday that he was confident of a "landslide victory" if the country's election was "free and fair".

Simion's rhetoric leading up to Sunday's vote had led to concerns among some observers that he would not respect the result of the election if he lost.

On Sunday afternoon, Simion appeared on the steps of Romania’s Communist-era parliament building and told reporters his team was confident of a “landslide victory” if the election was “free and fair” — but repeated allegations of voting irregularities among Romanian citizens in neighbouring Moldova.

Members of his party would conduct a parallel vote count after polls close, he added.

Speaking to The Associated Press, Simion vowed to contest the election “if the result will be switched in any voting stations,” but added that he thought the ballot so far had proceeded properly.

Romanians were voting on Sunday in a tense presidential runoff between a hard-right nationalist and a pro-Western centrist in a high-stakes election rerun that could determine the geopolitical direction of the European Union and NATO member country.

The race pits front-runner Simion, the hard-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians, or AUR, against incumbent Bucharest Mayor Nicusor Dan. It comes months after the cancelation of the previous election plunged Romania into its worst political crisis in decades.

Polls opened at 7 a.m. local time and were to close at 9 p.m.

By 3:00 p.m., more than 7.6 million people — or about 42% of eligible voters — had cast ballots, according to official electoral data.

Vatican City - 18 May 2025

1.Wide of faithful at edge of St. Peter’s Square

2. Nun holding copy of Osservatore Romano with Pope Leo XIV

3. Piece to camera (English) Trisha Thomas, The Associated Press:

"Political and religious leaders from around the world joined about 200,000 faithful here in St. Peter's Square this morning for the inaugural mass for Pope Leo XIV. Pope Leo XIV is the first United States citizen ever to become Pope. He is the 267th successor of St. Peter. I should add that he's also a Peruvian citizen after living 20 years in Peru, and there were Peruvian faithful in the crowd waving flags and thrilled to see a Peruvian pope as well. Pope Leo XIV started off the mass taking a spin in the Popemobile. He went around the piazza and down Via della Conciliazione all the way to the Tiber River to greet the faithful along the route. Then it was back on the altar for some of the more serious moments of the mass when he got two very important symbols of his papacy. The Pallium, which is a wool stole, Y-shaped, that is to symbolize a sheep, that he carries on his shoulders, a lost sheep, because he is the shepherd of the world. He also received the fisherman's ring, something that every pope has received and ages ago, they used to use it to seal documents and it had to be destroyed when a pope dies. They still destroy the fishermen's ring when the pope dies. During the mass and the homily, he spoke about peace and unity, which are clearly going to be priorities of his papacy. Now, among all the dignitaries here today, there was J.D. Vance, the Vice President of the United States, the U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine. There were also kings and queens from around the world. According to Vatican protocol, only Catholic queens are allowed to wear white, so we saw Queen Letizia of Spain, for example, in white, and Charlene of Monaco in white. At the end of the ceremony, the Pope went back into the Basilica where all the dignitaries lined up to greet him personally."

STORYLINE:

Pope Leo XIV, history’s first American pope, vowed Sunday to work for unity so that the Catholic Church becomes a sign of peace in the world, offering a message of communion during an inaugural Mass in St. Peter’s Square before an estimated 200,000 pilgrims, presidents, patriarchs and princes.

Leo officially opened his pontificate by taking his first popemobile tour through the piazza, a rite of passage that has become synonymous with the papacy’s global reach and mediatic draw. The 69-year-old Augustinian missionary smiled and waved from the back of the truck, but didn’t appear to stop to kiss babies and the crowd.

During the Mass, Leo appeared to choke up when the two potent symbols of the papacy were placed on him — the lambswool stole over his shoulders and the fisherman’s ring on his finger — as if the weight of responsibility of leading the 1.4-billion strong church had just sunk in.

He turned his hand to look at the ring and seal and then clasped his hands in front of him in prayer.

U.S. Vice President JD Vance, one of the last foreign officials to see Pope Francis before he died, led the U.S. delegation honoring the Chicago-born Leo after paying his respects at the Argentine pope's tomb upon arriving in Rome late Saturday.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, every election is a celebration of democracy. The elections for the President of the Republic of Poland are incredibly important because we are choosing a person who will represent all Polish women and men. I am very happy that we were able to take part in these elections and vote, as we do every year. And of course, we encourage everyone to vote."

5. Trzaskowski leaving

STORYLINE:

Polish presidential frontrunner Rafał Trzaskowski cast his vote Sunday morning at a polling station in the Polish capital as voters across the country turned out for a pivotal election.

Trzaskowski, who is the Mayor of Warsaw, is running for the centrist and pro-European Union party of Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

He told reporters after he voted that he was pleased to participate in the vote and encouraged others to do the same, saying "every election is a celebration of democracy."

The presidential election comes at a time of heightened security concerns stemming from the ongoing war in neighboring Ukraine and growing worry that the U.S. commitment to Europe’s security could be weakening under President Donald Trump.

The top two front-runners are Trzaskowski, a liberal allied with Prime Minister Donald Tusk, and Karol Nawrocki, a conservative historian with no prior political experience who is supported by the national conservative Law and Justice party.

Recent opinion polls show Trzaskowski with around 30% support and Nawrocki in the mid-20s. A second round between the two is widely expected to take place on June 1.

Polling stations opened at 7 a.m. (0500GMT) and close at 9 p.m. (1900GMT). Exit polls will be released when voting ends, with results expected by Tuesday, possibly Monday.

STORYLINE:

Israeli strikes across the Gaza Strip killed at least 103 people overnight and into Sunday, hospitals and medics said, and prompted the main hospital in northern Gaza to close as Israel intensifies its war in the territory that, after more than 19 months, shows no signs of abating.

In Gaza City, Um Mahmoud al-Aloul sat by the body of her daughter Nour al-Aloul who was killed in Israeli airstrike.

"My daughter, you are my soul. You took my soul with you, my daughter. You took my soul with you," she said as she mourned.

More than 48 people were killed in airstrikes in and around the southern city of Khan Younis, some of which hit houses and tents sheltering displaced people, according to Nasser Hospital.

Among the dead were 18 children and 13 women, hospital spokesperson Weam Fares said.

In northern Gaza, a strike on a home in the built-up Jabaliya refugee camp killed nine people from a single family, according to the Gaza health ministry’s emergency services.

Another strike on a family’s residence, also in Jabaliya, killed 10, including seven children and a woman, according to the civil defense, which operates under the Hamas-run government.

The Israeli military had no immediate comment on the overnight strikes. Israel blames civilian casualties from its operations on Hamas because the militant group operates from civilian areas.

The bloodshed comes as Israel ramps up its war in Gaza with a new offensive named “Gideon’s Chariots,” in which Israel says it plans to seize territory, displace hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to Gaza’s south and take greater control over the distribution of aid.

The war in Gaza began on Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas-led militants attacked southern Israel, killing 1,200 people and abducting 251 others. Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed more than 53,000 Palestinians, many of them women and children, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, which doesn’t differentiate between civilians and combatants.
