Summary

It's Day 5 in Africa for Pope Leo XIV. In the midst of a pause in the ongoing violence in Cameroon, the pontiff headed to Douala to celebrate a mass. Also, it's now more than 48 hours since journalist Million Beyene disappeared without a trace in Ethiopia. Plus literature takes centre stage in the French capital as Paris hosts the fifth edition of its Book Festival. Among the standout voices is Cameroonian writer Djaïli Amadou Amal. She gave us a message to pass on to young women.
