00:06in the Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv.
00:09Cyclone Chido batters the French overseas territory of Mayotte in what officials say
00:16is the worst storm in a century.
00:21At least two people were injured and an infrastructure facility damaged in the Ukrainian city of
00:26Mykolaiv.
00:27After Russian overnight drone and missile attack, regional authorities said on Sunday.
00:33Local media report that Russia had launched a total of 108 drones and an anti-aircraft
00:38missile during the night as part of the ongoing aerial campaign against Ukraine.
00:44Ukraine's air force said the military had successfully shot down 56 of these drones.
00:51Across the border in the Russian city of Belgorod, regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said
00:56the Ukrainian drone attack had killed a 9-year-old boy.
01:04Gladkov reported that 37 drones had been fired on the area within a 24-hour period.
01:10One of these attacks reportedly struck a residential building in the village of Metski, killing
01:15the boy and injuring his mother and sister.
01:23Two Russian oil tankers were badly damaged in a storm in the Kerch Strait, spilling oil
01:28and sparking an emergency rescue operation.
01:32One tanker ran aground and had its bow torn away, with Russian media saying one person
01:36on board was killed while the rest were saved by emergency services.
01:41The second tanker was also damaged in the storm and left drifting in the same area with
01:46its crew members aboard.
01:49Ukrainian officials accused Moscow of recklessness, saying the tankers were too old to go out
01:54in a storm.
01:59Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said the U.S. has been in direct contact with the
02:04Hayat Tahrir al-Sham rebel group in Syria.
02:08Blinken said he'd laid out the principles for ongoing support for Syria's political
02:12transition.
02:14He said it was important to work with HTS to build the inclusive, non-sectarian, peaceful
02:19and sovereign state the Syrian people want.
02:22Earlier in Jordan, he also urged Israel and Hamas to conclude a ceasefire and hostage
02:27return deal to bring an end to more than a year of war.
02:31Those comments come on the same day the Palestinian medical official said at least seven people
02:36were killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City.
02:39The strike hit a school which was sheltering displaced families.
02:43The hospital which received the casualty said at least 12 people had been injured.
02:48Among the dead was a woman and her two-day-old baby girl.
02:58Earlier this month, Islamist opposition rebels toppled al-Assad's regime.
03:03Many came out to the street to celebrate, but Syria's Kurds in the north worry for their
03:07future.
03:09Many fear the ascendance of the Turkish-backed Islamist group who overthrew al-Assad will
03:13make it hard for the Kurds to find a new place in Syria.
03:43Meanwhile, the Kurdish administration issued amnesty for prisoners to celebrate the fall
04:00of al-Assad's regime.
04:02It comes after the opening of prisons in areas of Syria that were previously controlled by
04:06the government.
04:14Clashes broke out between armed groups in the western Libyan city of Zawiya, trapping
04:20residents in their homes and causing fires in the country's second-largest oil refinery.
04:26Bullets reportedly hit oil tanks, leading to dangerous fires, but firefighters managed
04:31to control the blaze and gas leaks as clashes raged around the refinery.
04:37Oil-rich Libya has been divided for years between rival administrations in the east
04:41and west.
04:42It was plunged into chaos after a civil war which toppled the government of Muammar Gaddafi.
