00:00Two Ukrainian cities attempted to sweep away the rubble on Friday after repeated Russian

00:08attacks.

00:09This includes the bombed community of Pokrovsk in the Donetsk Oblast region.

00:15One resident says he was injured because of Moscow's overnight shelling.

00:19We spent the night in the basement, in a two-story house, until the morning.

00:26In the morning I came in and everything was like this.

00:29Well, in general, I don't know, it was such a mess, you couldn't lie down, you couldn't

00:33rest.

00:34There was an ambulance.

00:35I showed it.

00:36They said, look, look, there seems to be no shrapnel.

00:40Roughly 55 kilometres northeast, residents boarded up windows and cleared away broken

00:45glass in the Ukrainian city of Kostya-Yenivka.

00:48At 6.30 in the morning, as it lit up, like welding, with such fire, and bang, bang, and

00:59it started to fly, and we were next to it, on the roof, I heard, bang, bang, bang, bang.

01:05Everything calmed down.

01:07The attacks on Ukraine's east comes as Russia continues to push further into Donetsk Oblast.

01:13Donetsk is one of four Ukrainian regions Moscow recently claimed to annex in its 2022

01:19full-scale invasion, an allegation Kyiv rejects and says is illegal.

01:28European member states have failed to agree on whether the EU should apply steeper tariffs

01:33on China-made electric vehicles.

01:35Now the decision goes back to the EU Commission, who can implement its proposal.

01:40This means that the tariffs can be imposed.

01:43The vote in council revealed clear divisions.

01:46Ten countries voted in favour of the tariffs, with France and Italy amongst them, Germany

01:50and four more countries voted against.

01:52However, the abstention of 12 countries meant that there was no result.

02:00Germany's car manufacturers operate largely at the higher end, it's mostly premium cars,

02:06and they invested heavily within China.

02:08Given that they're premium branding, they're not too worried about competition on the lower

02:13end of the markets from Chinese imports, whereas French and Italian producers have

02:17not invested as heavily in China, and they compete much more directly on the lower end

02:21of the market, and they're therefore much more worried about the effect that Chinese

02:25competition would have for the European market.

02:30The high number of abstentions reflects long-standing concerns about how Europe should stand up

02:36to China.

02:37Even though there is agreement about the fact that Beijing's unfair trade practices merit

02:41a forceful united response, fears of commercial retaliation appear to have dampened the resolve

02:47of many capitals, especially with a make-or-break date approaching.

02:55I think what is clear is that the Chinese government would retaliate, that is what they

02:58normally do, and they already signalled where they will do this, which would be agricultural

03:03exports.

03:04Now, compared to the EV market, the agricultural market, even though it's politically very

03:08important, is economically not that big.

03:10So the question is basically, will that be enough for an escalation on the European side,

03:14and basically to which extent the Chinese side will escalate in more and more bigger

03:18sectors.

03:19Friday's vote marked a victory for the President of the Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.

03:25In its statement, the EU Commission still left the door open for a different outcome,

03:30stating that the EU and China would continue to work hard to explore an alternative solution.

03:40Certain FIFA rules on international player transfers are in breach of EU law, the EU's

03:46top court said on Friday.

03:48The Court of Justice of the European Union handed down its ruling following a decade-long

03:53legal challenge spearheaded by former footballer Lassana Diarra.

03:58According to the ECJ, certain FIFA rules impede the free movement of footballers wanting to

04:04progress their careers by working for new clubs.

04:07In 2013, Diarra signed a four-year contract with Russian team Lokomotiv Moscow, but the

04:13deal was terminated after Diarra was allegedly unhappy with pay cuts.

04:17Lokomotiv Moscow applied to FIFA for compensation, with its arbitration court finding Diarra's

04:23sacking was based on just cause.

04:25The player was ordered to pay the club millions of euros.

04:29Diarra claimed his search for a new club was hampered by FIFA rules, stating any new side

04:34would be jointly responsible for paying Lokomotiv compensation.

04:38FIFPRO, the union representing footballers, celebrated the recent ECJ ruling, saying it

04:44would change the EU's sporting labour market.

04:51Leader of the far-right Austria Freedom Party, Herbert Kickl, has met with Austria's federal

04:56president for talks on the formation of a new government.

05:01The Austria Freedom Party won nearly 29% of the vote in last week's national election,

05:07giving it the highest vote share but leaving it far short of a majority.

05:11And Kickl may struggle to form a government, as no other party is willing to work with

05:16him.

05:17Asked what he expected from the talks, Kickl only said he had positive expectations.

05:26Thousands have staged a march through central Vienna to urge the country's political parties

05:31not to join a coalition with the far-right.

05:35It comes as the FPO, for the first time in its history, won national elections on Sunday

05:40with 29% of the vote.

05:43Protesters held signs that read, it's Thursday again, alluding to demonstrations that broke

05:48out on Thursdays in the 2000s against the centre-right OVP entering into a coalition

05:55with the FPO.

05:57According to the organisers, over 25,000 people took part in the protest on Thursday evening.

06:04The largely Euro-sceptic party campaigned in an anti-immigration platform, promising

06:09voters measures to boost Austria's economy.

06:13Without a full majority, the party would need to form a coalition government in order to

06:18govern, which would mark the first time that Austria has been ruled by the far-right since

06:24World War II.

06:26At least 15 people have been killed in floods and landslides after a severe rainstorm hit

06:38Bosnia overnight.

06:41Several people are still reported missing, and the army has been dispatched to help with

06:46rescue operations.

06:48I woke up around 6.30 in the morning and heard the rain.

06:57I went out on the terrace and saw the flood.

07:04I went down, I was down at around 6.15, it was horrible.

07:09People were damaged, the buildings were flooded.

07:14So I've been walking around since morning to see where I can go, and it's really horrible

07:23what happened.

07:26Authorities in the towns of Jablonica and Kiselyuk say the power stopped working overnight

07:32and mobile phones lost their signal.

07:36Jablonica fire station also says the town is completely inaccessible because roads and

07:42train lines are closed.

07:45Heavy rains and strong winds are also reported in neighbouring Croatia, where several roads

07:51are closed and the capital, Zagreb, is preparing for the Sava River to bust its banks.

08:00A census for the homeless has begun in Budapest. Authorities in the city estimate that between

08:061,000 and 1,500 people spent nights on the streets and around 5,000 in hostels in the

08:13Hungarian capital.

08:15Several of the homeless found at this park say they had a stable life before things took

08:19a turn for the worse.

08:21The Shelter Foundation's homeless shelter on Van der Hunyard Street has been in operation

08:52since 1990.

09:01PET's jury, chairman of the Foundation's board of trustees, said that they are trying to

09:06find out how many people actually sleep without shelter in the inner districts of Budapest.

09:22According to a 2023 report, an estimated 890,000 people sleep rough or in a homeless shelter

09:41across the EU.

09:51We are using traditional machine learning and can enhance the capabilities of this robot.

10:13Modern robots nowadays learn a lot with artificial intelligence. They can learn walking, they

10:19can learn walking stairs and all of this is part of a modern robot.

10:49My mother was using artificial intelligence to help her write letters and she was 85.

11:02But there are also fears of people losing their jobs of course and artificial intelligence

11:07taking over everything. We must also consider what is it good for, what can we use it for

11:13and how do we apply it. We use it wisely I would say. We consider where it makes sense,

11:19where it can improve our work but not use it blindly. So we want to understand what's

11:25going on.
