00:00Palestinians in Gaza say aid delivered over the weekend is not enough and hasn't reached

00:08the population of over two million. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said minimal

00:17aid would be allowed to enter Gaza after images of starvation through international criticism.

00:23We didn't see anything. We didn't see any help from the outside or from the air or from any place.

00:33Here we are standing on the road and we don't see anything. Here we are standing here in the

00:40flames like the flames. We are waiting for the flames in the flames in our flames.

00:45There was a couple of times in the flames and they said they didn't see the flames, they didn't see the flames.

00:50They said they didn't see the flames, they didn't see the flames. The situation is very difficult.

00:56I'm not able to live, I'm not able to live our children.

00:58There's no doubt. They don't see us. It's not especially when we return to our house.

01:03These are the flames. The situation is a waste. There's no food or milk.

01:10Israel has implemented daily 10-hour tactical pauses in parts of Gaza to allow for limited humanitarian

01:17access. However, the UN said the measures would remain insufficient and the World Food Programme has

01:23called for reliable corridors and consistent access to deliver aid at scale.

01:32Thai and Cambodian leaders will meet in Malaysia on Monday afternoon for ceasefire negotiations.

01:38It comes as Clash has entered a fifth day, which has left hundreds of thousands of people displaced.

01:43They are desperate for an immediate ceasefire so that they can safely return home.

02:10Cambodia and Thailand have both blamed each other for starting the fighting which began on Thursday

02:30after five Thai soldiers were wounded following a landmine explosion. Since then, both countries

02:37have been facing widespread international pressure to stop the fighting. U.S. President Donald Trump

02:43threatened to halt trade deals with both countries if the hostilities didn't end.

02:50The European Union and the U.S. have struck a tentative trade deal to avert a potentially

02:56devastating tariff war between the two of the world's largest economies. Under the agreed terms

03:02finalized on Sunday between Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and U.S. President Donald

03:08Trump, the majority of EU exports bound for the U.S. market will be slapped with a 15 percent tariff.

03:15We've reached a deal on tariffs and trade with the United States. Today's deal creates certainty in

03:23uncertain times. It delivers stability and predictability for citizens and businesses

03:31on both sides of the Atlantic. This is a deal between the two largest economies in the world.

03:40We trade 1.7 trillion euros per year. Together we are a market of 800 million people and we're

03:50nearly 44 percent of global GDP. The preliminary deal struck in Scotland comes as a relief, especially

03:58as tensions mounted and the EU prepared several lists of retaliatory measures against U.S.

04:05products worth 93 billion euros.

04:12A regional passenger train derailed in southern Germany on Sunday, killing at least three people

04:18and injuring many others. It is unclear how many exactly were injured. However, around 100 people

04:25were on board the train. We have to be aware that there were several deaths, several thousands of

04:33injured, including very hard injured, who have been injured in the hospital in the area.

04:47Photos from the scene showed parts of the train on its side as rescuers climbed atop the

04:52carriages. Local media reported that search and rescue efforts continued through the night.

05:00The cause of the crash remains unknown. However, the region was hit by a heavy storm before the

05:05accident. Investigators are now looking into whether a landslide as a result of heavy rain could have been

05:11the cause of the crash. Germany's National Railway operator Deutsche Bahn said it was cooperating with

05:17authorities in their investigation. Meta said it will stop all advertisements about politics,

05:27elections and social issues on its platforms in the EU as of October due to incoming legislation

05:33on political advertising. The U.S. social media company, which owns Instagram, Facebook,

05:39threads and WhatsApp on Friday, said the EU's transparency and targeting of political

05:45advertising regulation, also known as TTPA, quote, introduces significant operational challenges

05:53and legal uncertainties. The EU's TTPA aimed at countering information manipulation and foreign

06:00interference in elections entered into force in April last year. But most of the provisions that Meta

06:06calls on workable requirements will apply fully from 10 October this year. The regulation comes amid

06:14several EU elections that have been targeted by disinformation. In December, Romania became the

06:20first EU country to cancel an election over foreign interference. Health civil society organizations are

06:33up in arms after the European Commission's 2025 health budget revealed significant funding cuts. After

06:40months of delay, the long-awaited health program was presented this week. According to the EU executive,

06:46multiple factors contributed to the delay. There was a transition to the new commission which took office,

06:53this commission that took office in December 24. There was also the need to integrate the mission letters

06:59of the commissioners into the priorities of this program. The delay has already taken a toll as many

07:06organizations were left unable to plan, leading to staff reductions and suspended operations. The lack or

07:12the absence of the operating grants have pushed many in our sector into a survival mode and especially

07:19ourselves as a big organization that has counted on these operating grants. And despite the drastic cost

07:25cutting measures, we have been forced to reduce our team by 40% this year. What worries civil society

07:33groups even more is a complete elimination of operating grants, the funds that support core

07:38organizational functions. It does not mean that NGOs will not be able to directly participate. It's just

07:45that we are doing the funding now differently. But for many NGOs this marks more than just a bureaucratic

07:54shift. Core work on long-term issues like air pollution or digital health doesn't easily fit into short-term

08:00projects. And I must say this goes way beyond health. Across Europe we see NGOs that are being deliberately

08:09weakened that are being which has really serious long-term consequences for democracy itself. We see

08:17it with the recipients of the life grants so the environmental NGOs but it happens across different

08:23sectors of civil society. Health NGOs warn that beyond the delays these cuts will now force layoffs and

08:30health vital activities.

08:39The European Commission is being secretive in not consulting properly in its scramble to approve

08:44projects to mine critical raw materials according to four green MEPs. The MEPs claim the Commission

08:52rebuffed requests for information about mining of critical raw materials.

08:56They told Euronews that they are mulling legal action against the Commission. Last year a new critical raw

09:04materials act empowered the EU to push for new mining projects. These critical materials are needed as

09:12components for electric vehicles and other clean tech products. The EU is trying to reduce its

09:19dependency on single suppliers such as China which is the world leader in raw materials production.

09:26The MEPs quizzed the Commission on six projects ranging from Spain to New Caledonia which they feared were

09:33being rushed through over local concerns asking to see what assessments had been done.

09:37MEPs Maria Oysalo, Sarah Mathieu and Magdalene Spai and Anna Miranda criticized the Commission for failing to

09:46respond properly claiming one response offered earlier this year was generic and evasive.

09:54The European Commission had not replied to a request by Euronews for comment up to now.

10:07This is a kind of a flying robot and when you are inside you just ask... Let's say you ask the machine to

10:27go somewhere. You feel like you pilot but the machine only executes what the computers want. So it's extremely easy.

10:37You need to be skilled to pilot an airplane, you need to be skilled to pilot an helicopter

11:01and it's very expensive to become a pilot, the machines are expensive and the price per

11:06hour is also expensive.
