00:00Up to a million people faced displacement as Israeli bombardment continues in Lebanon,

00:05including in the country's capital of Beirut.

00:10The far-right anti-immigrant Freedom Party won the most votes in Austria's national elections

00:15according to exit polls.

00:20Several people were injured after guided aerial bombs hit Zaporizhia, with the city's regional

00:25head saying more may still be trapped under the rubble.

00:30Around 39,000 people attended Pope Francis' farewell mass on the final day of the pontiff's

00:36visit to Belgium.

00:42Israel continued its non-stop bombardment across Lebanon, including suburbs of the capital

00:47city Beirut.

00:49More than 20 Hezbollah members were killed alongside the group's chief Hassan Nasrallah

00:53on Friday, according to the IDF.

00:57Hezbollah confirmed that a strike killed top official Nabil Kaouk, the seventh such death

01:01in recent days.

01:03However, they released a statement rejecting Israeli media claims that Abu Ali Raida was

01:09killed.

01:10The killing of several top Hezbollah commanders in recent weeks has dealt a huge blow to the

01:14group engaged in cross-border fighting with Israel since last October.

01:19Hundreds of thousands of people have been driven from their homes in Lebanon by the

01:23latest strikes.

01:25The government estimates around a quarter of a million are in shelters and the prime

01:28minister said up to a million face displacement.

01:32The Lebanese health ministry says over 1,000 people have been killed in less than two weeks

01:37by Israeli airstrikes.

01:43The far right won the most votes in Austria's national elections, according to preliminary

01:47exit polls.

01:50Anti-immigrant Freedom Party headed by Herbert Kickl could win the biggest share of votes

01:54with polls predicting they have around 29%.

01:59While the party has been in government several times before, it has never topped a national

02:03parliamentary vote.

02:06Polls put the conservative Austrian People's Party led by Chancellor Carl Neihammer in

02:10second place with about 26%.

02:14The far right and conservatives haven't ruled out working together, but Neihammer has said

02:19he refuses to work with Kickl.

02:24Centre-left Social Democrats are polling at around 20%.

02:29The Greens are currently in a ruling coalition with the conservatives and analysts say even

02:34if the Freedom Party win the most votes, it will likely not have enough seats or partners

02:38to form a government.

02:44At least 13 people were injured after Russia attacked the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhia

02:48with guided bombs overnight.

02:51The aerial bombs reportedly hit the city 13 times, with one of the strikes hitting and

02:56partially destroying a residential high-rise building.

02:59The head of the city's regional military administration said more people may still be trapped under

03:04the rubble.

03:05Meanwhile, the death toll has risen to 10 after Russia attacked a hospital in Ukraine's

03:10city of Sumy on Saturday, with another 22 injured.

03:14Russia reportedly hit the hospital twice.

03:17Most of the fatalities occurred during the second strike, which hit as emergency services

03:21arrived at the scene and as patients evacuated.

03:24125 Ukrainian drones were shot down over Russia on Sunday, the country's defence ministry

03:30said, sparking a wildfire and setting an apartment block on fire.

03:34A local governor in the Russian city of Voronezh said a residential apartment was hit.

03:39No casualties were reported.

04:10And once again, he referred to the marketplace in relation to the impact it has on social

04:15injustice and social inequality.

04:18But for all this adoring crowd here today, it's undoubted that the visit of Pope Francis

04:22to Belgium has been dominated by the legacy of child sexual abuse, both here and across

04:28the world.

04:29He was called upon by Prime Minister Ducroix, by the King of Belgium and by survivors themselves

04:34to compensate those who have suffered and to do more.
