Pope Francis is evicting US Cardinal Raymond Burke, an outspoken critic, from his Vatican apartment and revoking his salary.

Cardinal Burke is part of a group of American conservatives who have long opposed the Pope's plans for reforming the Catholic Church.

A Vatican source told the BBC that Pope Francis has not yet carried out his intention to evict the 75-year-old.

And the decision is not meant as a personal punishment, the source added.

Instead, it comes from the belief that a person should not enjoy cardinal privileges while criticising the head of the church.

Still, the move is "unprecedented in the Francis era", Christopher White, a Vatican observer who writes for the National Catholic Reporter, told the BBC.

"Typically, retired cardinals continue to reside in Rome after stepping down from their positions, often remaining active in papal liturgies and ceremonial duties," he said. "Evicting someone from their Vatican apartment sets a new precedent."

Mr White warned that the decision could "provoke significant backlash" and deepen divides between the Vatican and the US church, where there is already "fragmentation".

Cardinal Burke has yet to respond to the news and the BBC has reached out to his office for comment.

Mayor's house burnt down in Libya flood protests

September 19, 2023

The mayor's home in the Libyan city of Derna has been burnt to the ground, as hundreds of protesters demanded answers for last week's catastrophic flood. They gathered on Monday evening at the city's landmark Sahaba Mosque, some crying and chanting for top officials in Libya's eastern government to be sacked. More than 10,000 people are officially missing after two old and dilapidated dams burst, flooding the city. At least 4,000 people have died. The home of Derna's mayor, Abdulmenam al-Ghaithi, has become a focal point for people's anger. Residents say they were not sufficiently warned by officials, who they believe must have known a huge amount of rainfall was coming. They say they were also given a stay-at-home warning rather than told to evacuate, although officials deny this. the purvanchal files full movie download the purvanchal files full movie download the purvanchal files full movie download expend4bles movie online expend4bles movie online

Germany's far-right AfD wins first city mayor poll

December 18, 2023

The far-right Alternative for Germany, or AfD, has won its first mayoral election in a city. AfD leader Alice Weidel described the result in Pirna, Saxony, as "historic". Tim Lochner, a former carpenter, won 38.5 per cent after a run-off vote against two right-wing candidates on Sunday. The party's victory is being seen across Germany as a bellwether before key state and local elections next year. The victory also came days after the party in Saxony was officially labelled "extremist" by the country's intelligence services. While at the local level it has previously won seats on councils, it has repeatedly lost mayoral elections in large towns and cities. dunki movie online dunki movie online dunki movie online dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie download dunki full movie down
