00:01A French soldier was killed in Iraq as strikes continue to engulf the Middle East in war.
00:10EU leaders called out President Donald Trump's decision to lift sanctions on Russian oil
00:15as fueling the war machine against Ukraine.
00:21A French soldier was killed in an attack in Iraq's autonomous Kurdistan region,
00:26President Emmanuel Macron said on Friday, confirming the first French military death in the Middle East war.
00:33Macron said several soldiers were wounded but did not say who was behind the attack.
00:39Since U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran last month engulfed the Middle East in war,
00:44multiple attacks attributed to pro-Iranian factions have targeted the region where foreign forces are based.
00:50Iranian media reported fresh explosions in the capital Tehran,
00:54while Israel also came under attack,
00:57with the conflict showing no signs of slowing despite growing economic fears and the rising death toll.
01:04Iran has also unleashed waves of drone and missile strikes against neighboring states hosting U.S. military assets,
01:10including Saudi Arabia, whose defense ministry said Friday its forces had intercepted a total of 28 drones.
01:19Retaliatory Iranian missile strikes and drone attacks have brought shipping through the Strait of Hormuz to a halt,
01:25as Iran vowed to disrupt global energy markets in response to the U.S. and Israeli strikes.
01:36European Union leaders called out President Donald Trump's decision to lift sanctions on Russian oil
01:41as fueling the war machine against Ukraine,
01:44as Washington tries to ease energy prices after a second week of conflict in the Middle East.
01:59The German Chancellor's comment was echoed by President of the European Council, Antony Košta.
02:16While on a visit to Paris, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the U.S. decision to lift sanctions does
02:25not help peace in Ukraine.
02:28Zelensky said this move alone could provide Russia with 10 billion U.S. dollars to support its war effort.
02:39A U.S. military aircraft has crashed in western Iraq, killing the entire crew of six.
02:45U.S. Central Command disclosed in a social media post that the downed aircraft was a KC-135, an aerial
02:51refueling plane.
02:53The military command, which is responsible for U.S. forces in the Middle East,
02:57stated the loss of the aircraft was not caused by hostile or friendly fire.
03:03The exact circumstances of the incident are now under investigation.
03:07This brings the total of confirmed U.S. deaths in the ongoing military operation against Iran to 13.
03:18Poland's President Karol Nawrowski has vetoed legislation that would have enabled the country to access nearly 44 billion euros in
03:27EU defense loans.
03:28The move escalates a political clash with the government of Prime Minister Donald Tusk over how to finance the country's
03:36defense spending.
03:37The bill would have allowed Warsaw to access funds from the EU's SAFE program.
03:41The 150 billion euros initiative aims at strengthening Europe's defense industry.
03:47Poland was set to receive around 44 billion euros in loans under the scheme, making it the largest potential beneficiary.
03:55Donald Tusk's pro-EU coalition argued the loans would accelerate Poland's military modernization
04:01at a time of heightened security concerns following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
04:08Nawrowski, who is aligned with the conservative opposition,
04:11argued that relying on EU loans would increase Poland's dependence on Brussels.
04:16Instead, he has proposed using domestic resources to finance defense investments.
04:23U.S. President Donald Trump is trying to replace federal revenue lost after the Supreme Court struck down his biggest
04:31tariffs,
04:31but a report released Friday by congressional Democrats says the administration's import taxes could cost American households just over $2
04:41,500 this year.
04:43The increase, 44% from $1,745 last year, comes as U.S. consumers are already grappling with the high
04:53cost of living and rising energy.
04:55According to an analysis from the Congressional Budget Office,
04:59importers pass most tariff costs onto consumers,
05:03while domestic producers can also raise prices because of reduced foreign competition.
05:09Last year, Trump invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977
05:16to impose double-digit tariffs on almost every country in the world.
05:22But the Supreme Court ruled on 20 February that the law did not give the president the authority to levy
05:29tariffs.
05:30The Trump administration must now refund importers who paid tariffs,
05:35a sum expected to total about $175 billion.
05:42Berlin's central station is one of the largest and newest transit train stations in Europe,
05:48but it's plagued by problems.
05:5035 of the 52 escalators are out of service.
05:54Now, even Berlin's mayor, Kai Wegener, has intervened.
05:58Wegener has told railway company Deutsche Bahn that he expects the problem,
06:02which has been going on for around three weeks, to be resolved as soon as possible.
06:07Until then, passengers will have to carry their suitcases and walk up the stairs,
06:12much to the chagrin of the approximately 300,000 travelers who have to get from one platform to another.
06:17It's difficult, especially for the people who can't barriere-free, who can't help,
06:22who can't help, who can't help.
06:22I had already heard of it before and I'm surprised, especially when we see it again live,
06:29how it can actually be, that more or less everything is suddenly broken.
06:32I have already imagined that I hope that the train will be placed on a different path again.
06:49Deutsche Bahn has hired specialists from Finland to repair the escalators this week.
06:54Spare parts have been ordered from all over the world to restore a normal operation as soon as possible.
06:59But it's still unclear how long this will take.
07:03Offenbar sind die Rolltreppen wegen eines Herstellerfehlers defekt.
07:06Die Bahn versucht sie so schnell wie möglich zu reparieren.
07:09Doch dass so viele gleichzeitig ausfallen ist für die Fahrgäste trotzdem ärgerlich.

07:19NASA has cleared its moon rocket for a possible April launch with four astronauts
07:24after completing a fresh round of repairs,
07:27marking what could be humanity's first trip to the moon in more than 50 years.
07:32The 98-meter rocket will roll out of the hangar and back to the pad next week
07:38at Florida's Kennedy Space Center, leading to a launch attempt as early as April 1st.
07:43According to NASA, the Artemis II crew should have blasted off a lunar flyer round earlier this year,
07:50but fuel leaks and other problems with the Space Launch System rocket interfered.
07:55Although NASA managed to plug the hydrogen fuel leaks at the pad in February,
08:00a helium flow issue forced the space agency to return the rocket to the Vehicle Assembly building for repairs,
08:07bumping the mission to April.
08:09The space agency says it has a six-day launch window at the start of April
08:13and if it misses that opportunity, it must stand down until 30 April or early May.
08:20In February, NASA announced a major hoverhaul of the Artemis program to speed things up
08:25and by doing so reduce risk.
08:40You can roll your eyes up to the skies, my profile, but you're still here, all you need is me.
08:55There's so much destruction all over the world
09:01And all you can do is complain about me
09:07You bang your head against the wall and say you're sick of it all
09:15to your eyes into the sky
09:16You bang your head against the sky
09:32Using the bird's red stones
09:32Amazing, you burn your head against the wall
09:43reducing humanity
09:50What we're trying to do is to expose for the first time permanently what makes Pompeii so special and it's
10:01ultimately the tragedy of destruction and of many human lives that were lost.
10:36We are the victims of the eruption.
10:42We are the result of their bodies that allow us to regain the real image of the moment in which
10:50life is tragically finished.
10:52They can have a strong emotional impact on visitors.
10:55They can have a strong emotional impact.
11:27They can have a strong emotional impact on people.
11:38They can have a strong emotional impact.
