Reported on a court decision permitting a Protestant parade to pass through a Catholic area for the first time in nearly 30 years.
A court in Northern Ireland has allowed a Protestant parade to proceed through a controversial route in a Catholic area for the first time in nearly 30 years.
The claim is directly corroborated by two France 24 articles that report the court decision permitting the parade on the disputed route after a legal dispute, noting the 30‑year gap since the last such allowance.
Examine fact check →The Grotto of Massabielle is one of the Catholic Church’s major pilgrimage sites
Both excerpts from the France 24 article about Pope Leo's visit to Lourdes state that the Grotto of Massabielle is among the Catholic Church’s major pilgrimage sites. This aligns precisely with the claim, providing clear corroboration.
Examine fact check →Pope Leo XIV is the third pope to visit Lourdes
The evidence from France 24 directly supports the claim, confirming Pope Leo XIV's rank as the third papal visitor to Lourdes after Benedict XVI and John Paul II.
Examine fact check →No person-specific biblical assessments have been published.
