00:00Russian President Vladimir Putin says the Kremlin will consider any foreign troop deployment on Ukrainian soil as legitimate targets for destruction.
00:10Protests by the families of the remaining hostages are planned across Israel on Saturday, marking 700 days since Hamas' attack on October 7th.
00:21The city of Lisbon has demanded an external investigation into the funicular crash that killed 16 on Wednesday.
00:30Bulgaria's Prime Minister Rosenzelietskov says investigations show no Russian foul play in a jamming incident of a plane carrying Ursula von der Leyen.
00:40Russian President Vladimir Putin says it's practically impossible to reach an agreement with Ukraine on key issues to end the war.
00:49Delivering a keynote address at the Eastern Economic Forum, Putin said that Moscow will consider any foreign troop deployment on Ukrainian soil as a legitimate target.
00:58Putin added that he sees no sense in the presence of a foreign military contingent in Ukraine, so long as appropriate decisions are made to build a foundation for lasting peace.
01:09He also stressed that he'll not permit Western countries to instate any security guarantees that threaten Russia's national security.
01:17Putin argued that his country's security considerations must also be acknowledged and guaranteed to open a path for meaningful progress in the U.S.-led truce efforts.
01:26The Russian President reiterated the Kremlin's resolute objection to a Ukrainian-NATO membership,
01:32but noted that Moscow does not reject the premise of Kiev in the EU, which he says is Ukraine's legitimate choice.
01:40His comments came after Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky and France's Emmanuel Macron announced on Thursday that 26 European states
01:47were prepared to deploy a reassurance force to Ukraine post-war.
01:51The two leaders spoke after a meeting of the Coalition of the Willing, noting that the plan must have the backing of the United States to move forward.
02:00U.S. President Donald Trump did not comment on the European proposal, but said on Thursday that he plans to hold further talks with Putin soon,
02:08with whom he keeps a very good dialogue.
02:11Protests organized by the families of the remaining hostages are planned across Israel on Saturday,
02:21marking 700 days since Hamas' attack on October 7th.
02:26Demonstrations marking the attack, which killed 1,200 people and took 251 hostages into the Gaza Strip,
02:34are set to take place in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
02:36At least 48 are still believed to be held in the Strip, with 20 understood to still be alive.
02:45The Hostages and Missing Families Forum, which campaigns for the release of hostages,
02:50called for Israel and Hamas to sit down at the negotiating table.
02:55It has campaigned against Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu's plan to take over Gaza City,
03:01where Israel says Hamas have created a vast tunnel network.
03:04Netanyahu has called up at least 60,000 reservists to support the plan,
03:10which has sparked criticism both home and abroad.
03:14Meanwhile, cease-fire efforts between Hamas and Israel have stalled,
03:17with both sides sticking to conflicting demands.
03:22Talks on a temporary cease-fire, which would have seen at least some hostages returned,
03:27broke down when U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff walked away from the deal blaming Hamas.
03:32Israel has stuck to its plan to take over Gaza City until all hostages are returned and Hamas surrenders.
03:41With no peace deal in sight,
03:44Kyiv's allies have gathered on Thursday in Paris to discuss security guarantees,
03:49with U.S. President Donald Trump dialing in.
03:52French President Emmanuel Macron said that 35 nations are now part of the so-called Coalition of the Willing,
04:00and 26 of them have pledged to help Ukraine post-war by sending either troops or equipment.
04:08Not on the front lines, he said, but in deterrence roles on land, at sea or in the air,
04:14once a cease-fire is reached.
04:17Macron also insisted that there should be no limit to the support that Ukraine receives,
04:23not just to defend itself, but to also stop Russia from ever striking again.
04:29He also confirmed that this is no longer just talk.
04:32There's now an official military planning document.
04:35And Germany, Italy and Poland, once skeptical of this whole idea,
04:40have also pledged to participate.
04:41But the French leader refused to reveal any more details,
04:46saying that he refuses to hand Russia any strategic information.
04:51And finally, the leaders have also agreed to launch more sanctions along with the U.S.
04:56if Moscow keeps rejecting any peace deal.
05:03Portugal is mourning the death of 16 people
05:06after the Gloria Funicular in Lisbon derailed and crashed on Wednesday.
05:11Earlier, it was reported 17 people had died.
05:15This number has now been corrected to 16 fatalities.
05:19Prime Minister Luís Montenegro said the crash was one of the greatest human tragedies in the country's history.
05:25Estamos em contato com as famílias das vítimas nacionais e estrangeiras,
05:31nomeadamente através do Ministério dos Negócios Estrangeiros,
05:34sempre que haja lugar à identificação das pessoas e das nacionalidades que vão sendo confirmadas.
05:42The mayor of Lisbon, Carlos Moedas, assured that all efforts are in place to find the cause of the incident.
05:50The company that operates Lisbon streetcars and buses, Caris, said it has opened its own investigation.
05:57Pedi ao Presidente da Caris que não só abrisse uma investigação interna ontem à noite,
06:05mas também uma investigação externa independente,
06:10que apure todas as responsabilidades no mais curto espaço de tempo.
06:15Em relação a todos os outros funiculares da cidade,
06:17uma vistoria imediata está a ser feita e só voltarão a funcionar depois desta.
06:24The accident also resulted in more than two dozen injuries,
06:28five of whom are in critical condition.
06:31The injured were transported to various hospitals in Lisbon.
06:38Bulgarian officials have denied claims they suspect Moscow of jamming the GPS signal
06:43of a plane-carrying European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
06:48It comes just days after the Commission cited Bulgarian authorities
06:52as suggesting that the incident was due to blatant interference from Russia.
06:56Bulgarian Prime Minister Rosenzelietskov told Parliament on Thursday
07:00that von der Leyen's plane had not experienced prolonged interference or jamming.
07:06In a later statement, the Bulgarian Premier noted that although no jamming was detected by ground instruments,
07:11on-board devices could have detected it.
07:15Von der Leyen's plane, according to tracking data,
07:18appears to have circled around for nine minutes before landing at Plovdiv Airport.
07:23Some analysts believe the plane's GPS signal could have fallen victim to spoofing instead of jamming.
07:29Spoofing is a highly sophisticated practice largely accessible to state-level actors
07:34and is undetectable by conventional instruments.
07:37A telecommunications engineer told Euronews that a plane with a good signal,
07:42going around in circles, is usually an indicator of spoofing.
07:47Other analysts believe the aircraft's GPS could have simply been malfunctioning,
07:51which would also explain the incident.
07:54Zeletskov says he's ordered authorities to carry out further investigations into the issue.
07:59In July, sectarian clashes in Syria killed thousands and displaced many more.
08:09The leader of the Druze community in Israel recently visited Brussels to seek support from European officials.
08:15Euronews met with him.
08:17Of course, we came up with a voice in Syria, in the Arab world, in the Arab world, in the Druze,
08:24after the events that had happened to them and the events that had happened to them.
08:30We expect that the world, the European Union and the United States and the United States and all the world,

08:49According to Independent War Monitor, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights,
08:542,000 Druze were killed in Sowydain clashes with Sunni-Bedouin tribes backed by government militias.
08:59There was a lot of
09:17Among the deteriorating security situation in Syria, Israel launched strikes on government
09:36convoys in Damascus, saying it was acting to protect the Druze.
09:40We were here for the men of the Druze, but for the sake of the Druze, the world is Israeli, but I am in Druze.
09:55If there was an Israeli attack, the Druze will be used to the Druze.
10:00Is there any doubt that there was an Israeli attack, if there was an Israeli attack, the Druze will be used to the Druze?
10:10Aid agencies have urged the international community to send much-needed funding to Afghanistan
10:17after a major earthquake killed at least 1,400 people and injured thousands more.
10:25Only a handful of countries have committed money since the 6.0 magnitude quake struck several mountainous provinces,
10:32leaving villages trapped under rubble.
10:34The European Union and the United Kingdom are donating one million each to help with the cash going to aid organizations
10:44and sidestepping the Taliban government, which they do not recognize.
10:50Australia and South Korea have also donated one million each.
10:56Taliban authorities have appealed for international help, despite deep aid cuts that have befallen the government.
11:02International funding to Afghanistan has fallen dramatically since the Taliban took over,
11:10with only 28 percent of the humanitarian funding target met this year.
11:15Without aid, rescue teams have struggled to reach affected communities in the rugged Qunar region,
11:21where roads are blocked by landslides and rockfalls.
11:23The earthquake is the third major quake since the Taliban seized power in 2021
11:30and the latest crisis to beset the country.
11:34Afghanistan is reeling from deep cuts to aid funding,
11:38a weak economy and millions of people forcibly returned from Iran and Pakistan.
