Pope suffering from 'complex' lung infection, 'mild' kidney failure


Listen Later

Pope Francis is spending another night in a Rome hospital, suffering from a complex lung infection and what the Vatican describes as mild kidney failure. Still, the Pope’s condition has not significantly worsened. Exit polls in Germany show the centre-right Christian Democratic Union party will come out on top in today’s snap federal election, with almost 30 per cent of the vote. Conservative leader Friedrich Merz is poised to become the new German Chancellor, but he will need to form a coalition, possibly with outgoing chancellor Olaf Scholz’s third place Social Democrats. As the world marks the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to arrive in the besieged country for a summit of world leaders. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the meeting as the U.S. signals a shift in its support of Kyiv. Plus, Israel and Hamas are accusing each other of violating the fragile Gaza ceasefire. Israel delayed the previously agreed upon release of over 600 Palestinian prisoners. Israel says it did so after the coffins of four deceased hostages were paraded through the streets of Gaza.
