Beijing: In a dramatic scene in a Chinese courtroom, a man named Li made an unusual attempt to stop his 20-year marriage from ending. He picked up his wife, Chen, and tried to carry her out of the courtroom during divorce proceedings.
The incident occurred after Chen filed for divorce, citing accusations of abuse and domestic violence. The couple’s initial case was dismissed by the court, which believed that there was still hope for reconciliation due to the "deep emotional bond" between them. However, Chen brought the case back to court, determined to seek a separation.
As the legal proceedings resumed, Li, unwilling to accept the divorce, attempted to flee with his wife on his back. Chen's cries for help drew the attention of courtroom officials, who quickly intervened.
Following the incident, Li was asked to write an apology letter and make a commitment to avoid such actions in the future. "I now realize the seriousness of my mistake and its negative impact. I guarantee that I will never repeat this behavior again," Li stated in a public apology.

Rome AP: In his strongest words yet, Pope Leo XIV on Saturday denounced the “delusion of omnipotence” that is fueling the US-Israel war in Iran and demanded political leaders stop and negotiate peace.
Leo presided over an evening prayer service in St. Peter's Basilica on the same day the United States and Iran began face-to-face negotiations in Pakistan and as a fragile ceasefire held.
History's first US-born pope didn't mention the United States or President Donald Trump in his prayer, which was planned before the talks were announced. But Leo's tone and message appeared directed at Trump and US officials, who have boasted of US military superiority and justified the war in religious terms.
“Enough of the idolatry of self and money!” Leo demanded. “Enough of the display of power! Enough of war!”
