00:01Russian forces launched a massive overnight bombardment of Kiev using strike drones and
00:06missiles, killing at least 10 people and wounding at least 56, including children,
00:12as explosions echoed across the capital. The heavy barrage affected five districts
00:17of the wider region, with regional governor Mikola Kalashnik confirming coordinated strikes
00:22involving a wave of ballistic missiles and drones. The assault followed President Vladimir Zelensky
00:29cutting short an official diplomatic visit to Dublin on Wednesday, after intelligence reports
00:34explicitly warned that Moscow was preparing an impending large-scale strike on the capital.
00:40The latest escalation comes as Kiev steps up its own long-range drone campaign deep inside Russian
00:46territory, increasingly targeting energy infrastructure and border sector military installations.
00:52Moscow also said its air defenses had intercepted hundreds of drones from Ukraine in recent days.
01:05It is important that no further cuts are done to cohesion policy. Bulgaria's Deputy Prime Minister
01:11Atanas Pekanoff told Euronews ahead of the annual EU budget conference in Brussels, where member states
01:18are set to fight for cash. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz called the EU long-term budget unaffordable
01:24and demanded a €400 billion cut, particularly for fundings of cohesion and agriculture.
01:30Cohesion policy is not a gift from some member states to others. It is an investment in a functioning
01:35single market. It makes the infrastructure that then enables firms across Europe to extend,
01:41to get new markets, to get new consumers. It also creates new opportunities for European industries.
01:47On another note, Pekanoff gave an assessment of his country's economic outlook six months after
01:53Bulgaria joined the eurozone on the 1st of January. In the longer term, the euro will bring benefits to
01:59Bulgaria, strengthen credit worthiness and strengthen credit ratings, more trust in our country on
02:05financial markets. In the short run, however, there have been some, I would say, pressures, pressures on the
02:11inflation side. Unfortunately, with the start of the war in Iran, this also contributed. One could say
02:17that some firms coordinated and increased their prices. This is something we are worried about.
02:22He said Sofia is investigating whether there have been malpractices in some sectors
02:26and is finalizing the recovery and resilience plan.
02:34At the World Cup, England, Belgium and the United States all have made it through to the next round.
02:40In Atlanta, England came close to making an early exit against the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
02:46With the DRC scoring at the start of the game, England was behind for much of it. That was until
02:52striker Harry Kane scored twice to turn the game around.
02:57Also, Belgium produced a dramatic comeback. In Seattle, they faced Senegal and found themselves 2-0 down.
03:05With just a few minutes remaining during regular time, Belgium scored twice. With the game going to
03:10extra time, Jurit Tilleman scored the winning goal from a penalty, completing the 3-2 victory.
03:18And in Santa Clara, the World Cup co-host secured a 2-0 win from Bosnia-Herzegovina.
03:23Follarin Balogun opened the scoring before being sent off in the second half, but Malik Tilleman
03:30sealed the win with a free-kick goal.
03:32We will be here!
03:40In France, following a record-breaking heat wave linked to nearly 1,000 excess deaths,
03:46hospitals are preparing for another spike in temperatures, forecast for the middle of next week.
03:52During the previous heat wave, healthcare facilities were under severe strain, facing a major surge in
03:57admissions and a lack of equipment suited for extreme temperatures, a senior at Paris-Saclay hospital.
04:04It's been a horrible week for the whole staff of the hospital, not only for nurses and physicians,
04:12but everyone who was working at the hospital was working on a 7-24 hours a day basis,
04:19because we had to find new solutions in a very short delay.
04:28We thought we were ready, we were not actually.
04:31We have already earned some lessons from the event, which is first, of course, to adapt the buildings.
04:41So we start with climateization. We start with changing in the way we are keeping some of our
04:50medications in low temperature areas. So that's what we did last week. We also changed some services,
05:01which were not, which were very open to these high temperatures. So it starts today.
05:10For instance, we are moving services for elderly people in this new hospital.
05:19Shower stretchers usually used to bathe people with physical disabilities have also been requisitioned.
05:27Shower stretchers usually used to be in the hospital.
05:28We have recovered it for the canicule, if there is a need.
05:30Absolutely. Like the bath we have also recovered, for the SMUR,
05:37we put the patient in the hospital, which is in hyperthermia.
05:41Sébastien Lecornu announced an investment of 100 million euros starting this summer,
05:46earmarked for healthcare facilities most vulnerable to the heat.
05:50The French Prime Minister has also promised 30,000 air conditioners with the first delivery
05:55scheduled for early next week. The Green Party, which considers these measures too late,
06:01plans to file a motion of no-confidence against the government soon.
06:05Government spokesperson Maude Berejean responded on Wednesday,
06:09stating that such a measure will not stop the climate change.
06:16The Portuguese Institute of the Sea and the Atmosphere has placed 12 of the 18 districts of mainland
06:22Portugal under a red warning from Thursday until at least Sunday due to persistently extremely high
06:30temperatures, both maximum and minimum. A further six districts on the mainland will be under an orange
06:37warning. The IPMA states that a prolonged period of very hot and dry weather is forecast with maximum
06:45temperatures reaching between 35 and 41 degrees Celsius across most of the country. Minimum temperatures
06:51will exceed 20 degrees Celsius, with some regions, including Greater Lisbon, expected to see temperatures
06:57remain between 24 and 28 degrees Celsius for several nights. The spell of extreme heat is expected to last
07:04for at least a week. The authorities advise against exposure to the sun and recommend wearing sunglasses,
07:11a hat and sun cream, as well as drinking plenty of water.
07:25This year has been filled with so many really meaningful moments, not just in my career, but in my
07:34life and I think it's so aligned that this is the time that I am announcing this Barbie because my
07:41Barbie really represents
07:43my career in entirety and specifically this moment from Something Beautiful, my latest album.
07:53We spent so much time really digging into the details. That's something that wasn't just important for me in designing
07:59the Barbie,
08:00but that's something that's very important to my own creativity in the way that I represent myself.
08:05And she did not miss any marks when it came down to the design of the custom alaya, the hair,
08:13the accessories,
08:13the makeup, structure. Every detail was purposeful and we spent a lot of time perfecting her, not to be perfect,
08:21because that wouldn't be representative of me.
08:23We did not miss any magic.
08:23We did not miss any magic.
08:24We did not miss anything, that would make anything to me
08:52when we opened up.
08:52We did not miss any miracles.
08:55Your man, on which side are you?
09:00Stalin or Mickey Mouse?
09:09You and your father make a great double act.
09:16They have written so wonderful about the music of our grandparents like anyone else.
09:19He's the most famous Wagnerianer of the world.
09:22I mean, after the life of a certain Adolf Hitler.
09:28A soul trope was a terrible idea.
09:31There was one moment, Thomas Mann's return to Germany in 1949,
09:36which seemed like a good context for a film.
09:39Especially given the family things that happened in the Mann family.
09:45The love triangle with Klaus, Erika and Thomas.
09:51And it kind of coincided with this amazing moment in history.
09:56So I thought, okay, maybe that could be an interesting film.
10:00I didn't know so much about Erika Mann.
10:03But the fact that she was writing and acting and racing, those were the things that were very important to
10:12me.
10:12The many languages she spoke, that she really was a citizen of the world.
10:19That she was very much in a deep connection to her brother, that she was capable of love.
10:27And that she decided to leave everything she did behind after the death of her brother,
10:33in order to be with her father and to help him fulfill his, I don't know, chosen duty in life.
10:42That was enough for me.
10:47It's maybe your last trip.
10:54I want to go home.
10:55Dad.
10:57Where is that?
10:58Where is that?
11:11Where is that?
11:22Where is that?
11:24Where is that?
11:25How is that?
11:28to set this fate.
11:31Now...
11:35I'll set myself.
11:39Good.
