00:00BRICS condemned the increase of tariffs and attacks on Iran, but refrained from naming U.S. President Donald Trump director.

00:10Some parts of Western Europe cool off after days of extreme heat, but weather authorities warn risk remains.

00:22The BRICS block of developing economies condemned the increase of tariffs and attacks on Iran,

00:27but refrained from naming U.S. President Donald Trump directly at their summit in Brazil.

00:34The bloc issued a declaration in which they raised serious concerns about the rise of tariffs,

00:39which it said threatened to reduce global trade, disrupt global supply chains and introduce uncertainty.

00:46In their 31-page declaration, the group took aim at Israeli military actions in the Middle East,

00:52spared its founding member Russia from criticism and mentioned war-torn Ukraine only once.

00:57If the international governance does not reflect the new multiple reality of the 21st century,

01:06it is necessary to contribute to its actualization.

01:12Its representation and diversity make it a force capable of promoting peace and prevent conflicts.

01:20Despite Brazilian President Luís Inácio Lula da Silva's push to spotlight issues such as artificial intelligence

01:30and climate change at the summit, it has been marked by the absence of several key leaders.

01:34This includes its two most powerful members, Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

01:44Poland reinstated border controls with Germany and Lithuania in response to similar measures imposed by Berlin.

01:59The Polish Interior Ministry said the checks were aimed at those involved in illegally smuggling migrants across the border.

02:06They are scheduled to last for a period of 30 days, but the Polish government has not ruled out extending them.

02:11It is important, and let me add that, that neighboring countries with temporary border controls coordinate closely with each other

02:20to limit the impact of these border controls to a minimum, including as regards smooth traffic flows.

02:28The Commission stands ready to facilitate cooperation and coordination as necessary,

02:32and the Schengen coordinator of the Commission is already in close contact at technical level

02:37with authorities of all Schengen member states concerned.

02:41The EU legislation states that member states are allowed to introduce temporary internal border controls

02:47under certain conditions, such as in times of serious threat.

02:52Poland's decision comes after Germany first imposed controls on its borders in 2023

02:57to combat human trafficking and curb irregular migration.

03:05Relief from extreme heat began to reach areas of Western Europe during the weekend,

03:11bringing cooler temperatures and thunderstorms after days of record-breaking heatwaves.

03:17Germany reported a maximum daytime temperature of 24 degrees Celsius on Sunday,

03:23while Spain and Italy also saw temperatures averaging around 27 degrees Celsius and 30 degrees Celsius.

03:32In Belgium and Luxembourg, buckets of rain fell as temperatures took a deep,

03:37and clouds dominated the sky.

03:40The cool-off came as a big relief to many,

03:43as severe heatwaves in southern Europe have caused temperatures to rise above 40 degrees Celsius.

03:49As the deadly heatwave moved east,

03:53meteorologists warned that the danger is, however, far from over.

03:58On Sunday, officials in Germany issued warnings of spreading forest fires

04:02on the border between Saxony and Brandenburg

04:05as firefighters battered flames that broke out last week.

04:10While in Portugal, authorities put two-thirds of the country on high alert

04:15for extreme heat and wildfires.

04:17According to the World Meteorological Organization, WMO,

04:21we will have to learn to live with more frequent and intense heatwaves

04:26as a result of climate change.

04:33Authorities said that the death toll had risen to 82

04:35following flash floods in central Texas,

04:38which ripped apart the area and washed homes off of their foundations.

04:42Texas' governor said at least 41 people are confirmed to be missing.

04:50This includes 10 campers and a councillor from a Christian summer camp.

04:55He also warned that more heavy rainfall expected to last until Tuesday

05:00could lead to more dangerous conditions in the area.

05:05U.S. President Donald Trump signed a major disaster declaration

05:09for the affected region, saying the families had endured

05:13an unimaginable tragedy.

05:16The Guadalupe River surged more than eight metres

05:18in just 45 minutes on Friday,

05:21destroying homes, camps and vehicles.

05:25Texas authorities used helicopters, boats and drones

05:28to look for victims and missing people.

05:31Officials said over 850 people were rescued

05:34in the first 36 hours.

05:36authorities faced growing scrutiny

05:40over whether enough warnings were issued

05:43in an area vulnerable to flooding.

05:47They defended their actions,

05:49stating they had not expected such an intense downpour,

05:53which was equivalent to months' worth of rain for the area.

05:56Young Polish director Korek Bożanowski

06:05has just been to Shanghai and Brussels,

06:08showcasing his directorial debut,

06:10Loss of Balance.

06:12I'm talking about the group of students

06:13who are preparing for a diplomatic show,

06:17on their way there is a new director

06:18and there is a play between them.

06:20The filmmaker takes inspiration from the early cinema

06:25of Roman Polanski, which inspired his debut.

06:29The story follows a group of students

06:30at a Polish acting school

06:32and draws inspiration from real-life scandals

06:34that came to light in Polish film schools in 2020.

06:37The director says he wanted to bring those stories to life.

06:58In 2024, Bożanowski's debut film

07:08first started gaining traction.

07:11A major milestone for the Loss of Balance team

07:13was the film's selection as the closing screening

07:15for Poland's presidency of the European Union.

07:18Most recently, the world premiere took place in Shanghai,

07:22where Loss of Balance was honored

07:24with the award for best screenplay.

07:25Bożanowski hopes his next film

07:34will enter the shooting phase this year.

07:52The director's second film

07:54is set to be a black comedy.

08:12A court is for couples and families

08:14who simply want less stress

08:16and more harmony in their day-to-day lives.

08:19And there's a really interesting sociology study

08:23showing that when families divide chores more fairly,

08:29each family member's stress levels reduce drastically

08:34and communication improves.

08:38And this eventually leads to happier relationships

08:41and better relationships.

08:42We've already seen among Accord users

09:05that the gap has shrunk dramatically

09:08for the people using the app.

09:10So before Accord,

09:13these women were generally doing twice as much

09:16as men did.

09:18And with Accord,

09:19the gap has been reduced by 60%

09:21if we look at the gender balance.

09:25So it's not like all the way there,

09:27but we see a huge improvement there,

09:31which is really fun for us.

09:34I think that it has been a really great skillet.

09:51Now it's a really good job.

09:52Now it's a really good job.

09:53Now it's a really good job.

09:54Now it's a really good job.

09:55Now it's a really good job.

09:56Alla har självtagit ansvar

09:58för att de ska ta det här.

10:01Jag slipper ju vara projektledaren

10:04och vara den som initierar hela tiden.

10:06Kan du plocka i diskmaskinen?

10:08Kan du göra det?

10:09Kan du göra det?

10:11Så nu kan barnen och min sambo göra saker

10:13utan att jag behöver vara den som initierar det.

10:17Pärisians on Saturday jumped into the River Seine

10:37legally for the first time in more than 100 years.

10:41It came as public swimming was allowed

10:43in designated areas of the Seine,

10:45including two newly built wooden decks

10:48near the Eiffel Tower

10:49and Île Saint-Louis in central Paris.

10:53Before sunrise,

10:54a municipal officer skimed away

10:56the last few patches of alga

10:57with a fishnet.

10:59Soon after,

11:00a line of eager Parisians formed,

11:03towers in hand,

11:04waiting for their chance to jump in.

11:07The return to swimming

11:09follows a 1.4 billion euro cleanup project

11:13tied to last year's Olympics.

11:15Officials,

11:16including the mayor of Paris,

11:17now say the Seine

11:18meets European water quality standards

11:21on most days.

11:23Swimming in the Seine

11:24had been illegal since 1923,

11:26with a few exceptions

11:28due to pollution

11:29and risk posed by river navigation.

11:32Taking a dip outside bathing areas

11:34is still banned for safety reasons.

11:36No!

11:37No!
