What the coverage shows

Both outlets center the federal appeals court blocking Christa Pike’s execution at the last minute. The Washington Post frames it as a federal court intervention “with hours to spare,” while France 24 says the order came “less than two hours before” the lethal injection. France 24 alone adds that Pike would have been the first woman executed in Tennessee in more than two centuries and notes the stay was to give the court time to consider her claims.
