Reaction from North Korea

About 100 North Korean Catholics have attended Mass in the capital, Pyongyang, to mourn the death of the Pope.

The Church where the Mass was said was built in 1988 but there are no resident clergy. Estimates say there are about 3,000 Catholics in North Korea.

Kathy Zelleweger works with Caritas - the Catholic Aid and Development Agency - and regularly visits North Korea. She spoke to Philippa Hitchen about the importance of this Mass.
