The Philippines faces a growing crisis of fake news and disinformation, a problem an analyst warns “can get worse” amid the upcoming #Halalan2025 (midterm) elections. This surge of online falsehoods is not only destroying public trust in traditional media but also actively dividing Filipinos and potentially influencing the political landscape.
The ease with which fake news is produced and disseminated through modern communication tools, especially social media, amplifies its dangers, leading to a polarized nation.

Dopo il suo soggiorno in ospedale, Papa Francesco è finalmente rientrato a Santa Marta per la convalescenza. E la domenica scorsa, si è trattato della sua prima apparizione pubblica dopo le dimissioni dal policlinico Agostino Gemelli due settimane fa, dove è stato ricoverato per 38 giorni a causa di una polmonite bilaterale.
Il Pontefice, seduto su una sedia a rotelle e con i naselli per la respirazione, ha alzato le mani per salutare la folla, che si è alzata in piedi e ha applaudito, mentre veniva portato davanti all’altare della piazza. “Buona domenica a tutti”, ha detto il Papa alla folla. “Grazie di cuore”.
Una tale apparizione è stata un messaggio confortante per gli ammalati e del mondo della sanità che celebravano il loro giubileo quella domenica. Fosse un momento di grande gioia per tutti che si trovavano alla pizza San Pietro.

The war between Israel and Hamas which began on October 7, 2023 has resulted in many deaths and suffering of the innocents in Gaza. The brutal killing of children, women and men and taking civilians as hostages has created chaos till date. The Holy Family Parish in Gaza has become a refuge for the Christian Minorities in war-torn Gaza. The parish catered to 500 people mostly orthodox, protestant, and catholics but also some Muslim children and their families. It is interesting to know that Pope Francis, has remained in constant touch with the suffering Holy Family Parish of Gaza.

Dos publicaciones recientes han hecho que la palabra “Cónclave” sea tema de conversación en muchos ambientes, seculares y eclesiales: el estreno del largometraje “Cónclave”, del director austriaco Edward Berge, y el libro del escritor español Javier Martínez Brocal y del sacerdote mexicano P. José de Jesús Aguilar, titulado igualmente “Cónclave. Las reglas para elegir al próximo Papa”. ¿Será una coincidencia o el reflejo de una inquietud más profunda?

“Guardare meno gli schermi e guardarci di più negli occhi”: con queste parole, Papa Francesco ha iniziato il messaggio con cui invita il mondo intero, mese dopo mese, a unirsi in preghiera con la stessa intenzione; questa volta, in aprile, “per l’uso delle nuove tecnologie”.

One of the important issues currently being discussed in the Church in Kerala, one of India’s southern states, is youth migration. The phenomenon of migration is not new. However, the number of young migrants has increased significantly in recent years. In the Catholic Church in particular, and in the area of faith formation, the analysis of youth migration brings not only opportunities but also challenges. Youth migration is mainly driven by the desire for a better standard of living, stability, and a better life for the family. It often includes remittances, which are an important source of income for many households.
