00:00I have a message for our American friends.
00:03Denmark's foreign minister has scolded the Trump administration for its tone in criticising
00:07Denmark and Greenland, saying his country is investing more in Arctic security.
00:12Las Luge Rasmussen made the remarks in a video posted to social media after a visit to Greenland
00:18on Friday by US Vice President J.D.
00:21Vance.
00:22Rasmussen said Denmark is open to criticism but added he didn't appreciate the tone.
00:27He also pointed out that in January, Denmark had committed to a 1.9 billion euro investment
00:33for Arctic security.
00:35During his visit to the Pitterfix space base, Vance accused Denmark of under-investment
00:40in Greenland's security.
00:42Trump's repeated threats to annex Greenland have been met with anger both on the island
00:46and in Denmark.
00:48On Saturday, hundreds of protesters demonstrated outside the US embassy in Copenhagen, with
00:53some holding signs saying Greenland is not for sale.
01:01Italy approves a new decree to use Albanian migration centres as repatriation hubs.
01:08Under the new decree, two centres in Albania will now also house migrants who arrived in
01:14Italy had their asylum request rejected and received a deportation order.
01:20The Albanian centres have barely been used since opening in October because of legal
01:26issues and strong opposition from human rights groups who say they break international laws
01:31and endanger migrants' rights.
01:35The centres were originally intended for processing non-vulnerable migrants rescued in international
01:41waters.
01:43The project, led by Prime Minister Giorgio Meloni's conservative government, has cost
01:48nearly 800 million euros over a five-year investment.
02:01Hundreds are feared dead after a powerful earthquake rocked Myanmar's second-largest
02:05city, Mandalay.
02:07A 7.7-magnitude quake struck around midday local time.
02:11It was followed by a series of more than 50 aftershocks, with the strongest measuring
02:15in at 6.4 magnitude.
02:18Myanmar's military-run government says almost 700 people have been killed, but warned
02:22the death toll could still continue to rise.
02:25Hundreds are reported missing and close to 1,700 people sustained injuries of varying
02:30degrees.
02:31Aftershocks were felt in the capital of neighbouring Thailand, some 1,300 kilometres southeast
02:36of the epicentre.
02:38A high-rise building under construction in Bangkok collapsed, claiming the lives of 10
02:42people and injuring more than a dozen.
02:45The U.S. Geological Survey predicts the death toll from the quakes could top 10,000.
02:50The U.N. has allocated $5 million to help the civil war-embroiled country start relief
02:55efforts.
02:56U.S. President Donald Trump also offered Washington's assistance to help Myanmar with its response.
03:06Russia launched a massive overnight attack on Ukraine, killing at least four people and
03:10injuring 36, according to local authorities.
03:14Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials have said Russia is preparing to launch a fresh military offensive
03:20in the coming weeks to increase pressure on Ukraine and bolster the Kremlin's position
03:25in ceasefire talks.
03:27The attack on the eastern town of Dnipro killed four people and injured 21 others, causing
03:33a large-scale fire to break out in a restaurant complex, according to authorities.
03:39Ukraine's air force reported that Moscow launched 172 drone attacks, 94 of which were
03:45shot down.
03:46Separately, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed Kyiv had reached an agreement
03:52with some EU countries on expanding intelligence access.
03:56On the other hand, Russia said that overnight Ukrainian attacks were carried out on its
04:01energy infrastructure.
04:06A partial solar eclipse was visible across Europe on Saturday, as well as western Africa,
04:12eastern North America and northern Asia.
04:17In London, spectators watched from the Royal Observatory in Greenwich.
04:22During a partial solar eclipse, the moon passes between the sun and Earth.

04:32a crescent.
04:35Solar and lunar eclipses happen anywhere from four to seven times a year, according to NASA.
