00:00In early July, a 46-year-old Hungarian man died in the Ukrainian region of Transcarpathia.
00:08His relatives anonymously told Hungarian pro-government media that he had been beaten to death by Ukrainian conscription officers.
00:15The claim was echoed by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban on all his social media platforms.
00:30According to unconfirmed allegations circulating in the pro-government press and on social media,
00:49Josef Sebastian was beaten with iron rods by recruiters and was in a coma for days before succumbing to his injuries in hospital.
00:55Your News traveled to Transcarpathia to find out the facts and whether atrocities against Hungarians are a daily occurrence.
01:25This is a man who works in the hospital where Josef Sebastian died.
01:29Zoltán Rázsó is proud of being Hungarian, but as a Ukrainian national he's also proud of having served 27 months on the front lines near Bahmut.
01:38He said he met the deceased in the street at a time when based on claims in Hungarian media,
01:43he should have already been in a coma, and later also met him in the hospital.
01:46Rázsó has also seen the videos circulated on the internet,
02:15but he says if you understand Ukrainian, you'll hear that they don't abuse Sebastian.
02:20Hospital tests showed nothing to suggest that he had been beaten.
02:45One of the most popular Hungarian-born bloggers in Transcarpathia, Sándor Lengiak,
02:53told Euronews that the conscription officers, the so-called TCKs,
02:57treat Roma and Hungarians in exactly the same way they do Ukrainians.
03:01Euronews spoke to dozens of locals and found no sign of tensions between ethnic Hungarians and Ukrainians,
03:27which is inconsistent with the recurring diplomatic spats between Budapest and Kyiv.
03:36Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has announced the creation of two new marine parks in the Aionian and South Aegean Sea.
03:44The Greek government said the aim of the marine parks is to protect and manage ecosystems and species,
03:51while also reintroducing human activities compatible with environmental protection.
03:55These parks will be among the largest marine protected areas in the entire Mediterranean.
04:05They will allow us to meet the target of protecting 30% of our territorial waters by 2030,
04:11way ahead of schedule.
04:14And perhaps, most importantly, inside these marine zones,
04:18the hugely damaging practice of bottom trawling will be banned.
04:22Working with local communities, local fishermen, scientists, but also global partners,
04:27we will make these parks examples of what is possible.
04:31By doing this, Greece can be a voice for the sea,
04:35in Europe, but also beyond.
04:37Because when we protect our ocean, we protect our own future.
04:41The two parks include and integrate scattered protected areas
04:46that are in the European Natura 2000 network or in the process of being included.
04:55According to the latest Eurostat data,
04:58only 26.6% of Romanians could afford a one-week holiday last year,
05:03whether in the country or abroad.
05:05In Europe, only Bulgaria comes close to this figure,
05:08while in Sweden, Luxembourg or the Netherlands,
05:11more than 85% of their citizens can afford a one-week annual holiday.
05:16The tourist numbers decrease is clearly seen in Mamaya Resort,
05:19where hundreds of sunbeds are now empty.
05:21You can see it with a liberate.
05:23You don't have to be an expert to know.
05:25You look at how many of the last year you've been in the last year.
05:28You look at how many of the last year you've been in the last year.
05:30It's about 30-35%.
05:32The decline in the value of holiday vouchers
05:35seems to be one of the reasons why sales have decreased in recent months.
05:39According to travel agents,
05:41tickets worth 95 million euros were purchased in May last year.
05:45Those figures dramatically dropped this year,
05:47with only roughly 9 million euros worth of holiday vouchers having been sold.
05:52We don't have to leave a reservation for more than two days or three,
05:55because tourists are more than less than less.
05:57In our unit, a small flight camera arrives in the month of July.
06:02It's about 350-400 lei per night with a small dejuns and 6 longs included.
06:07And for a package with all-inclusive,
06:09from 700 to 850 lei per night with all-inclusive and 6 longs included on the beach,
06:15and all-day.
06:16Two- and three-star hotels are the most affected by this decline,
06:20as most stays there are paid for using holiday vouchers.
06:23Very small, very small, very small,
06:25very small for the other people.
06:26And what are you doing?
06:28Absolutely everything.
06:28From the postage,
06:29from the postage to the celebru pahar of beer.
06:33And how are you going to pay for a day for a day?
06:37With a day and with what are you going to pay for it?
06:39I don't know if I'm going to pay for it,
06:41Last month, most bookings at the beach resorts were made for the weekends,
06:58and most were booked on last-minute offers and deals.
07:11At first, we use the deep learning model
07:23to translate the brain signals into the intended words.
07:28And then we use the large language model
07:30to make the match of the decoded words
07:34and make up for the errors in the EEG decoding.
07:41As scientists, we look at a medical condition
07:46and we look at what function has been affected by that medical condition.
07:51What is the need of the patient?
07:54We then address that unmet need through technology
07:58to restore that function back to what it was.
08:04After that, the sky's the limit.
08:11So I'm Professor Naomi Allen,
08:39Professor of Epidemiology at the University of Oxford,
08:42and I'm also Chief Scientist for UK Biobank,
08:47which is a health study of half a million British volunteers
08:52who joined the study 15 to 20 years ago.
08:57They gave us lots of information about their lifestyle,
09:00their physical health, their biological samples,
09:03and we followed their health over time
09:07to find out what happens to them as they get older.
09:11And now we've also undertaken imaging
09:14of 100,000 of those half a million participants.
09:20It really enables researchers
09:23to look inside our bodies
09:26and to see how our organs change
09:30as we get older
09:32and as we develop disease
09:34in incredible detail
09:36and at a massive scale,
09:38which just is not possible with other studies.
09:43So we now have over 22,000 researchers
09:46accessing these data from around the world
09:49to do health research
09:51that's in the public good.
09:53These scans can identify the early warning signs of disease,
09:57subtle changes in the way our organs are structured
10:01and function
10:02that can signal that something's going wrong.
10:04So for example,
10:06it turns out that the amount of fat around our heart
10:10is a really good indicator
10:12of if someone's going to go on to develop heart failure.
10:16So you can use that almost as a biomarker
10:20to identify people who will go on to develop heart failure
10:24and then give them treatment before it's too late.
10:27I am recording this.
10:38Fair warning.
10:39Is that really necessary?
10:42Look.
10:43Joe.
10:44Six feet.
10:49Is that praying?
10:50I wrote this film in a state of fear and anxiety
11:11about the world
11:12and I wanted to try to pull back
11:15and show what it feels like
11:20to live in a world
11:22where nobody can agree on what is real anymore.
11:27I wanted to make a film
11:28about just what America feels like to me
11:31and what it felt like to me at that time
11:33and it felt bad.
11:35We need to free each other's hearts.
11:38We need to do that.
11:41We need to fill up our hearts.
11:46.
