00:00Russian forces struck Kiev with three ballistic missiles carrying cluster warheads,
00:05Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed.
00:10A federal judge ordered U.S. President Donald Trump to sit for a deposition by the 11th of
00:16December in his defamation lawsuit against the BBC.
00:20The European Parliament awarded the International Criminal Court the Sakharov Prize,
00:25signaling opposition to U.S. sanctions threatening the court.
00:31Russian forces struck Kiev overnight with three ballistic missiles carrying cluster warheads
00:38designed to inflict maximum casualties across densely populated areas,
00:43Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed on Thursday.
00:48One of the missiles hit Ukrainian capital's historic center, damaging religious buildings,
00:53homes, shops, cafes and other civilian infrastructure.
00:56The missiles were designed to detonate in the air as they approached their targets,
01:01dispersing explosive submunitions across an area 400 meters in diameter, Zelenskyy explained.
01:08The choice of weapon was deliberate, the choice of target area was deliberate,
01:13and so was the intent to inflict as much loss and damage on civilians as possible, Zelenskyy added.
01:19At least two people were killed and 34 others injured, including five children across the affected areas,
01:26according to the Ukrainian president.
01:28The overnight bombardment came just hours after U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff
01:34met Russian President Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg
01:37as Washington sought to revive negotiations to end the war.
01:46A federal judge ordered U.S. President Donald Trump to sit for a deposition by the 11th of December
01:53in his multi-billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC.
01:57If Trump fails to do so, he could face sanctions, including the possible dismissal of the lawsuit.
02:03A deposition is a legal procedure where Trump is required to answer questions under oath before the trial begins.
02:11An attorney representing the BBC said Trump had initially agreed to be deposed earlier in October,
02:16but he cancelled.
02:18Trump had said he had done so due to a matter of national importance.
02:22However, the president was then seen campaigning in Georgia that day.
02:27Trump filed a lawsuit against the British broadcaster in December of 2025,
02:32accusing the BBC of defamation because of a documentary they produced and aired.
02:38The BBC admitted to editing together parts of one of Trump's speeches,
02:42making it appear as if he had encouraged violence at the U.S. Capitol.
02:46The broadcaster apologized and two senior executives resigned,
02:51but the BBC denied defamation.
02:58The European Parliament on Thursday awarded the International Criminal Court,
03:03the ICC, the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought,
03:07signalling opposition to U.S. sanctions threatening the court's work.
03:11The annual prize recognizes individuals and organizations defending human rights and fundamental freedoms.
03:20The European Union is built on respect for multilateralism and international institutions,
03:26and this prize recognizes the important work of the court in upholding international law and justice.
03:35U.S. President Donald Trump's administration announced sanctions against the ICC on October the 9th,
03:42following repeated criticism of its arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
03:48and its investigation into the conduct of U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
03:52Parliament's political group leaders choose the ICC over two other shortlisted candidates,
03:58Tanzanian lawyer Tundu Lissou, who faces political persecution,
04:02and Iranian sisters Taraneh and Romina Rahimi,
04:06nominated on behalf of those persecuted by Iran's authorities.
04:10Last week, MEPs from across the political spectrum urged European Commission President Osirah von der Leyen
04:17to protect the Netherlands-based court from U.S. sanctions.
04:25Following last weekend's violence and looting,
04:28the French government wants to prevent another outbreak of unrest
04:31during the protests scheduled for Saturday.
04:34French President Emmanuel Macron convened intelligence officials
04:38to review the failures and prepare the authorities' response.
04:42The President wants to tighten restrictions on protests,
04:45those not organized by labor unions will therefore be banned.
04:49Thank you very much.
04:50The general recommendation is that there is no manifestation in the coming days.
04:53People who want to continue to manifest.
04:55When it's a syndical organization, the presidents will propose alternative traces.
04:59When it's not a syndical organization, everywhere where we can, we will be banned.
05:03So that the calm is there, so that we can protect the commerce,
05:06so that we can also protect the public buildings.
05:08The government wants to prevent further outbreaks of violence,
05:12such as those in Limoges, where a fire at City Hall devastated a large portion of the building.
05:17Two men have been arrested, the first a 34-year-old on the S-List
05:22and described as a far-left activist, and a second suspect, age 66.
05:26For the third consecutive night, curfews were imposed in several French cities,
05:31including Lyon, Marseille, Nice, Bordeaux and Paris,
05:34where Les Halles and Place de la République areas are cordoned off from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.
05:41While some business owners hope these measures will protect them,
05:44others doubt their effectiveness, deeming them too limited.
05:47As the weekend approaches, these curfews are expected to continue,
05:51but it is Saturday that could be a turning point,
05:53a decisive day for gauging the authorities' ability to regain control.
06:02Italy and Spain have agreed to end border checks,
06:05which were temporarily introduced in August.
06:07The decision followed a phone call between the interior ministers of both countries.
06:12Last week, Prime Ministers Giorgia Meloni and Pedro Sanchez
06:15had already signaled their intention to end the checks.
06:18In August, Italy temporarily reintroduced border checks with Spain,
06:23suspending Schengen rules and screening travellers at ports and airports.
06:28The checks were announced immediately after the massive border breach at Ceuta,
06:32a Spanish autonomous city located on the North African coast.
06:36The Italian Interior Ministry said the targeted checks focused mainly on non-EU nationals
06:42to strengthen border security and prevent potential terrorist threats.
06:47Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Alvarez denounced the decision
06:51and Spain introduced reciprocal checks on travellers arriving from Italy.
06:56In identical statements, the two governments have now said the decision
07:00followed a careful assessment of the situation
07:03and that the current suspensions would not be extended.
07:11UNICEF estimates that 412 million children live in extreme poverty.
07:16At a summit in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, representatives from more than 100 countries
07:21are discussing how to better connect the services children need.
07:25We should invest not sector by sector, but we should complement each other
07:32and this will give a better result for the change.
07:36That coordination also matters when protecting children from violence
07:40at home, in conflict zones and online.
07:43I think violence against children is happening everywhere and increasingly online.
07:48I think that we're seeing more and more children affected by violence.
07:51But preventing harm is only part of well-being, as Turkey's first lady, Emine Ordogan, stressed it.
07:57Fakat okula gitmek her zaman nitelikte eğitim almak, aç olmamak, doğru beslenmek,
08:06şiddete maruz kalmamak, sevgi ve değer görmek anlamına gelmez.
08:12The difference between excess and effective care is stark in childhood cancer.
08:17At a parallel congress, experts highlighted survival rates above 80% in wealthy countries,
08:24but below 30% in many poorer ones.
08:27It's usually delayed diagnosis or underdiagnosis in many countries.
08:32The only way to address childhood cancer is by a comprehensive package.
08:38The congress also launched an international network supporting seriously ill children,
08:43cheered for two years by Uzbekistan's first lady, Zerohat Mirzuayva.
08:48She also proposed an international mechanism to improve access to medicines.
08:52Visiting first ladies also opened an impkan center and toured an exhibition
08:56showcasing Uzbekistan's child protection initiatives.
08:59We have to protect our children all over the world and we have to learn from each other.
09:05The initiatives presented here offer examples of how child protection policies are being put into practice.
09:12The Samarkand Declaration takes these priorities to an international level,
09:15calling for greater investment in children's well-being, stronger social services
09:20and measurable national targets to track progress.
09:23Delbar Primva, Euronews, Samarkand.
09:28Covered over in the 18th century, these paintings were once considered outdated.
09:33A four-year restoration was unveiled in September to mark the 800th anniversary of St. Francis' death.
09:40Inside Basilica of Santa Croce, Giotto's scenes follow Francis from his rejection of wealth to his death.
09:47These paintings are frescoes.
09:49As the plaster dries, the color becomes part of the wall.
09:53Removing deposits and later additions has made the figure's expressions and gestures easier to read.
10:02What allows us to see this restoration, which is almost a revelation,
10:10because it has eliminated, because it has eliminated superfetations,
10:18which has taken out of the paintings that ottundevano le inventions giottesche,
10:24it allows us to read the extraordinary knowledge of a master who changed the French painting,
10:34which is an ancient world to find a way of playing.
10:38He took a lot of effort to playing in the past.
10:42An moment, in the past is the game of a master's voice,
10:42Noi oggi leggiamo bene gli sguardi.
10:45Se passa in rassegna i gruppi di figure,
10:49nelle diverse scene c'è un gioco muto, ma eloquentissimo.
10:55and he could orchestrate them in spaces that underline the sense of the scenes,
11:04which are paralleled in more, and we read this with great clarity,
11:11from an impressive detail ability.
11:25Covering also harmed the paintings. Further restoration followed in the 1950s.
11:32Restorers have now digitally the paintings to help study how the paintings were made
11:36and guide future work to preserve them.
