Not yet, the Italian press releaced it at the time of your posting...it has since been cleared up as untrue, it was press confusion. The pope is still with us for a short while yet. I hope he doesn't suffer and passes away soon

Same thing on Sky News over here. However they said that a lot of conflicting news reports are going out from people concerned. He won't last more than a few hours...

Hmm, I think that they should just let him pass away in peace, in whatever ways possible...

^^ live streaming from the press boot in vatican city used by serveral news agencies for reporting the news live...

(...)
19:55 GMT Dutch news reporter
20:02 GMT Italian news reporter for ETB
20:09 GMT ----
20:17 GMT Dutch news reporter
21:17 GMT ----
21:31 GMT French news reporter for TSR
21:39 GMT ----
(...)
22:41 GMT live stream from Vatican City ended => Switched back to backstage live streaming of Dutch TMF Concert.

notes on the confusing and conflicting press reports earlier:
* the pope isn't dead yet. But it is very very critical and he is dying.
The moment he dies:
  - will be confirmed by a doctor
  - some other stuff will be done
  - after +-15 minutes an official news bulletin from Cardinal (forgot name) will be spread.
* first press bulletin from TAS that the pope has died is untrue
* press bulletins from other agencies that the pope is brain dead is untrue
* as of yet no new news is available
