What happened
Coverage highlights chants of ‘revenge’ among mourners, while the designated successor was not present at the proceedings. Euronews reports a eulogist explicitly called for the death of former U.S.
President Donald Trump during the service. The New York Times and Le Monde note the scale of attendance, with prayers continuing into a second day, while NPR frames the event as a rare public display of national unity under grief.
