00:00Five. Several men have been arrested on suspected explosive offences after police declared a major incident in a rural air
00:08force base.
00:09Russia's foreign minister rejected Germany's calls to ease off its dangerous path of escalation and criticized the West during his
00:18UN General Assembly speech.
00:20At least 27 people are dead in South Africa after two separate mass shootings over the weekend.
00:30A protest against the housing crisis in Madrid has turned into a sit-in against the government as demonstrators wait
00:36for a bill which would freeze rent prices to be approved.
00:41Five men have been arrested on suspected explosives offences after British police declared a major incident near a rural air
00:50force base in the UK on Sunday, leading to the evacuation of local residents.
00:55Gloucestershire police said in a statement that residents from the Welford area were being evacuated.
01:01Welford is close to Raff Fairford, a military base that hosts the United States Air Force.
01:07The statement added that an Army Specialist Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team was examining multiple vehicles, although they believe the incident
01:17to be contained.
01:18According to the U.S. Air Force, the base is home to two military units, while also serving as the
01:24preferred bomber forge operating location in Europe for YUSAF Global Strike Command.
01:30In July, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards issued a warning to the UK against allowing the U.S. to operate bombers
01:38from Raff Fairford.
01:39Any base that is used to invade Iran's territory is our legitimate goal, the IRGC said in a statement.
01:51Russia's Sergei Lavrov rejected Germany's calls to ease off its dangerous path of escalation toward the country,
01:59instead accusing Germany of being Ukraine's main sponsor during the first meeting between the two foreign ministers since Russia's 2022
02:07full-skill invasion.
02:09Tensions rose in September after Berlin accused Russia of being behind a drone attack in Leipzig Hall Airport.
02:17Lavrov later defended Russia's war in Ukraine and criticized the West during his UN General Assembly speech.
02:46Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Saturday that it was clear the Kremlin was not preparing.
02:53To bring the war to an end any time soon.
03:01At least two people have been killed and 19 are in hospital after a bus crashed in Germany with Filipino
03:08tourists on board,
03:10who were heading to Munich's beer festival, according to local authorities.
03:15The bus, carrying approximately 35 people traveling from Milan, veered off the highway west of Munich and overturned.
03:23Investigators were looking into the cause of the crash, which was not immediately clear.
03:28The crash comes just weeks after a Dutch tour bus crashed in eastern Switzerland, killing five people.
03:40At least 27 people are dead in South Africa after two separate mass shootings over the weekend.
03:4710 people were killed and 11 injured in Luandul, near Cape Town, when gunmen opened fire at an outdoor grill
03:54and entertainment venue in the early hours of Sunday,
03:57while police say 17 people were killed Saturday night at a turban west of Johannesburg.
04:04It's unfortunate that we have the loss of life.
04:09Yes, 17 people who have lost their life is too many.
04:1315, they got admitted to the hospital.
04:17As you can see, there are two cars, which really have been bent down to ashes.
04:24Authorities say the attackers were armed with AK-47s and pistols and robbed some victims of their phones before escaping
04:31in two vehicles.
04:33Local police say they have launched an investigation into the incident with detectives and specialized units deployed to track down
04:41the suspects.
04:42No arrests have so far been made.
04:49Madrid's square of Puerta del Sol awoke this Sunday transformed into a makeshift camp with nearly 150 tents set up
04:57after Saturday's demonstration against Spain's housing crisis.
05:02The protest, organized by the Tenants' Union, followed the eviction of 87-year-old Mari Carmen Abascal, who was forced
05:10to leave the rental home where she had lived for 70 years.
05:14Her case, known as the Mari Carmen effect, sparked demonstrations in 40 cities under the slogan, Not One More Mari
05:22Carmen.
05:23In Madrid, turnout estimates ranged from 25,000 to 300,000, depending on where the organizers or the government figures
05:32are used.
05:33The night passed peacefully as protesters organized food, water and sleeping bags to remain for several days.
05:40Their demand is clear for the government to approve the so-called Mari Carmen Decree this Tuesday, freezing rent prices.
05:48Left-wing groups warn that if the measure fails, they could reconsider their support for the government.
05:59Pope Leo XIV once again threw himself into the crowds during an open-air Mass in Lourdes on Sunday, where
06:07he addressed the issue of sexual abuse within the church and assisted dying.
06:12Around 150,000 people attended a homily of the Supreme Pontiff, many in wheelchairs on the prairie next to Lourdes'
06:21main basilica.
06:22Pope Leo said the church must have the courage to heal the deep wounds, the acts of infidelity, and the
06:30painful deviations committed in its midst.
06:34He added, acknowledging our own fault is essential to our spiritual progress.
06:41He also blasted the legalization of medically assisted death as immoral false compassion.
06:47Lourdes, a major pilgrimage destination after the Catholic Church officially recognized visions of the Virgin Mary, reported there by a
06:56young girl in 1858, is associated with miraculous cures of the sick.
07:01It has also become a place of healing for survivors of clergy sexual abuse.
07:07Pope Leo's visit to France, a once staunchly Catholic nation, will end on Monday in the city of Metz, close
07:14to the German border.
07:19Suisse voters overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to strengthen the country's neutrality in a referendum on Sunday with around 70%
07:28voting against the measure.
07:30The initiative would have allowed Switzerland to impose sanctions only with UN approval,
07:37effectively giving Russia, a permanent Security Council member with veto power, the ability to block such measures.
07:45Supporters, led by the right-wing Swiss People's Party, SVP, argued that Switzerland had moved too close to the EU
07:53and NATO since Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
07:57Switzerland has maintained a long-standing policy of neutrality.
08:01However, the interpretation of that has been the subject of political debate for years.
08:06While Swiss voters rejected the proposed restrictions, support for neutrality itself remains widespread.
08:14According to a latest survey, some 82% of respondents continue to support Switzerland's neutrality.
08:23The Azerbaijan International Investment Forum has resulted in 11 newly signed documents with foreign partners.
08:30They span renewable energy, digital technology, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, finance and investment.
08:38Azerbaijan's encouragement for international capital is not to simply invest in the country,
08:43but also to use it as a gateway to a much bigger market.
08:47And there are reasons why the country is attracting global investors.
08:52A growing focus to what connects Asia to Europe and a push towards diversification appears to be attractive.
08:58Connectivity, whether it's in the Gulf or ASEAN countries, which is really about the wider region in Asia or in
09:05the Middle East.
09:06But between China and Europe, there's a lot of business to do.
09:10And the Middle Corridor is a new network hub for that connection.
09:16The AIIF completed a full week of high-level events, including the Baku Security Forum,
09:21where over 100 countries attended to discuss new age threats.
09:25And F1 saw the city transform into the biggest motorsport event of the year.
09:29There are more in the pipeline over the following weeks.
09:32The F1 Grand Prix helps a lot in communicating Baku as a modern, active, fast city in the world.
09:43That's important.
09:44Secondly, you need to identify the specific sectors of opportunities and spot those specific investors.
09:52Again, renewable energies, transport and digital and innovation spaces.
09:57Energy remains important, but international capital is increasingly being invested into other industries,
10:04and the Middle Corridor considered to be a real logistical alternative.
10:07The World Bank estimates that with sufficient investment and greater efficiency,
10:11trade flows along the route could triple by 2030, while journey times could be cut in half.
10:17Nadira Tudor, Euronews.
10:34Online voting has begun for Fat Bear Week, the annual contest that pits the giant bears of Katzmai National Park
10:42and Preserve against each other for the title of the most oversized bear.
10:47Last year's 544-kilo winner, Chunk, known officially as Bear 32, is hungry to retain his victory.
10:56This year, I think it's pretty tough to predict.
11:00I mean, there's a few bears that are larger than others, but it's not necessarily about body mass alone.
11:08We want people to consider the bears' stories as well, because getting fat means different for a big adult male
11:14who's maybe trying to dominate access to the best fishing spots at Brooks Falls.
11:19The contest celebrates the resilience of the 2,200 brown bears that live in the preserve on the Alaska Peninsula,
11:27extending towards the Aleutian Islands.
11:31Fat Bear Week was started in 2014 as an interactive way to inform the public about brown bears,
11:38the coastal cousins of grizzlies.
