Pope Francis was laid to rest in Rome following a solemn funeral at St Peter’s Basilica attended by hundreds of thousands of mourners, including world leaders and pilgrims from across the globe.
The service was led by Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re.
After the mass and a blessing of the coffin, the Pope’s body was carried through the streets of Rome, greeted by around 140,000 people lining the procession route.
He was buried at the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore near a revered icon of the Virgin Mary.

Filthy J3w$h cabal killed our pope! Erase them and wipe their satanic colonising Zionist state from the face of the earth!
He is an anti-pope, his election is invalid, Benedict did not resign in accordance with cannon law.
