00:02Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky has announced that his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump had told him he would grant Ukraine
00:10a license to build Patriot missiles.
00:12There is a concrete confidence that President Trump at the last meeting with me said that yes, I took the
00:23final decision. The license for the rocket Patriot is that Ukraine will receive.
00:29Zelensky and Trump met on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York earlier this week.
00:35Kiev has long asked allies to supply more interceptors and has been pushing for a license to produce Patriot missiles
00:42domestically to counter Russian ballistic missile attacks.
00:46At a NATO summit in Ankara in July, Trump had said he would grant Ukraine the right to make Patriot
00:52missiles.
00:53We're going to give a license to you to make Patriots. That's pretty cool, right?
00:58This way you can't complain that we're not giving them enough.
01:00He said, make them yourself. We haven't informed the company of that yet, but that'll work out all right. Sure,
01:09they'll be thrilled.
01:11He appeared to walk back at Promise in late July, telling a cabinet meeting he had not agreed to it.
01:20Saudi Arabia says it has intercepted ballistic missiles fired by the Houthis in Yemen after issuing warnings for several regions,
01:29including Mecca.
01:30According to the Saudi-led coalition supporting Yemen's government since 2015 against the Houthis, six ballistic missiles had been intercepted,
01:4014 attacks on Taif and Yambu.
01:43The attacks came as fighting raged in Yemen between the Houthis and Riyadh-backed government forces, killing dozens of people
01:52on both sides.
01:53They are also the latest in a series of escalating Houthi attacks since July, when renewed hostilities shattered a years
02:02-long truce and embroiled Yemen in the wider Middle East war.
02:06Meanwhile, Iran's President Masoud Peshik-Skan denied that Tehran was directing Houthi battle plans, and with pressure mounting on Saudi
02:16Arabia,
02:17French President Emmanuel Macron said Paris planned to, quote, send military assets, raiders and defense systems to protect the Saudi
02:27oil terminal of Yambu.
02:29The infrastructure around Yambu, which serves as Saudi Arabia's primary crude export terminal on the Red Sea,
02:37is connected to its oil-producing regions near the Gulf Coast by the East-West pipeline,
02:43and forms a key node in the kingdom's vast network of energy installations.
02:52French President Emmanuel Macron has denied claims that the CIA had informed France of a possible Russian drone operation targeting
03:01southern Europe.
03:03It comes after Spanish newspaper El Mundo reported that the CIA had warned of such an attack against Spain, France
03:10or Italy,
03:11launched from ships in the Mediterranean.
03:14This information, we can deny it. The CIA has not informed the French services of a such attack.
03:21And the minister of the Italian defense has done the same thing. So I can say no.
03:28However, yes, there is a situation that falls in tension, which is inquiet for, of course, Ukraine,
03:35which is under the direct war of Russia since February 2022, and in fact, since 2014,
03:41and for us, Europeans, because these last weeks, especially, the hostile acts, a little bit everywhere in Europe,
03:48have been multiplied.
03:49Addressing Russia's ongoing and intensifying hybrid campaign against Europe,
03:54Macron referred to the drone attack on Leipzig-Halle airport early in August,
03:59which German authorities have attributed to Russia.
04:01Macron said France had not experienced a comparable attack so far, but warned that one remained possible.
04:14The summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping
04:18was largely about symbolism and finding ways to manage rivalry between the two leaders.
04:24Ian Lesser, a political scientist at the German Marshall Fund of the United States, told Jeroen News.
04:30It was all about the symbolism. And the symbolism really, in a sense, is the substance to manage rivalry.
04:38China, you know, can come away from this perceiving that it was treated as an equal.
04:43And President Trump can also come away with what he could describe as a success,
04:48but also, you know, looking over his shoulder at the American political scene,
04:52where, you know, tougher attitudes on China are there on both sides of the aisle, Democrats and Republicans.
04:59Lesser also said that despite the seemingly positive climate,
05:02Xi Jinping's first visit to the U.S. in a decade leaves a lot of unresolved issues,
05:08including on technology and trade.
05:09He sees the extension of the trade war truce for another few months as something of a success,
05:15while acknowledging it also leaves a lot of work to be done.
05:22Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a defiant speech
05:26at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Thursday,
05:30as planned protests broke out in the city against him.
05:33As he made his way to the podium,
05:35dozens of delegates from around the world exited the venue as the speaker called for order.
05:41If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now.
05:48Netanyahu used the platform to take aim at critics of Israel's war in Gaza,
05:52as well as media outlets and international partners.
05:55Yet they accused Israel, tiny Israel, of colonialism, some colonialism.
06:03And who's accusing us?
06:05Well, among them are people in Britain and in France.
06:10For God's sakes, they invented the term.
06:13Hundreds of people held a sit-in outside the United Nations headquarters
06:17to protest Netanyahu's invitation to attend the General Assembly.
06:20He stands accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court,
06:26as multiple human rights organizations have labeled Israeli conduct against Palestinians in Gaza a genocide.
06:33What genocidal regime gives a million polo vaccinations to the enemy's population?
06:41What genocidal regime enables the distribution of two million tons of food into Gaza?
06:48That's a ton for every person.
06:52Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century.
06:58Netanyahu's brief visit demonstrated how isolated he is globally,
07:02as he faces re-election next month in polls widely seen as a referendum
07:06on his responsibility for the security failures surrounding the 7 October Hamas attacks
07:11and his ability to defend Israel's reputation on the world stage.
07:19At dawn, in his bakery in Saint-Ju's-en-chaussée,
07:23in the oil department of northern France, Kevin is already hard at work.
07:28To bake his baguettes, his two ovens run on fuel oil,
07:33a solution that used to be economical but is now particularly expensive.
07:49The last delivery was two days ago, some 1,200 litres for 2,200 euros.
07:58Six months earlier, the baker had paid 2,100 euros for 2,000 litres.
08:04The global energy crisis is directly impacting his finances.
08:21Martial, a food truck owner, has decided not to fill his tank for now.
08:43The price of diesel has forced him to scale back his business.
08:47He now turns down certain gigs that require long drives.
08:52There's always been a crisis.
08:55Since I was born, there's always been a crisis, even before.
08:59But now, it's more viable.
09:02In rural areas, this situation brings back memories of the yellow vest crisis,
09:08which began in 2018, triggered in part by rising fuel taxes.
09:18An alarm went off early Friday morning in the heart of Athens' historic centre,
09:23following a powerful explosion that occurred at 7.30 a.m.
09:27The explosion caused a building to collapse and the fire broke out.
09:30The fire broke out.
09:37It's not a disaster.
09:39It's a disaster.
09:40The fire broke out.
09:41We moved into the hospital.
09:42So, what I wanted to do is, I didn't want to get a building to do that.
09:47It shouldn't be the time to get good.
09:50The fire broke out.
09:53It's open to the hospital and you didn't see it,
09:56it's empty out of the house.
09:57We moved away on the hospital and we had a unit.
10:00Large contingents of the fire department and the special disaster response unit, police officers, ambulances and crews from the natural
10:07gas distribution company rush to the scene.
10:11Firefighters are searching through the rubble to determine whether anyone is trapped.
10:15Earlier, a team from the special disaster response unit managed to rescue two women from an adjacent building.
10:21The women, one elderly and one younger, were taken to the hospital as a precaution.
10:26In total, three people sustained minor injuries.
10:30The area was cordoned off by the police.
10:32Firefighters worked to extinguish the fire and conducted inspections of the damaged building while assessing the condition of the surrounding
10:40structures to determine whether there was a risk of further collapses.
10:48A broken screw could lead to steering failure in about 2.86 million Volkswagen and Audi vehicles worldwide, according to
10:57Germany's Federal Motor Transport Authority.
11:00Under certain conditions, corrosion could cause a bolt securing the steering gear to brake.
11:06In the worst case, this could lead to a loss of steering control and increase the risk of an accident.
11:11The models concerned include the Audi Q3, as well as the Volkswagen Golf, Golf Variant, Tiguan, Touran and Caddy.
11:20Audi said it has launched a precautionary recall after international inspections found that road salt and other environmental conditions could,
11:29over several years, corrode a screw securing the steering system in some vehicles.
11:34Globally, there are nearly 2.16 million potentially affected Volkswagen vehicles.
11:39More than 696,000 Audi vehicles are potentially affected worldwide.
