Pope Francis has marked the New Year by presiding over Mass in St. Peter's Basilica and praying for Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, a day after his retired predecessor's death.
Benedict is 95. In 2013, he became the first pontiff to resign in six centuries, and he has withdrawn almost entirely from public view.
