00:00Thousands of people participated in nationwide protests against U.S. President Donald Trump
00:06and Tesla boss Elon Musk.
00:08Protests took place across major cities from Washington, D.C. to Boston, New York and San
00:13Francisco.
00:14The protest movement, so-called Hands Off, was organized for more than 1,200 locations
00:19in all 50 states by more than 150 groups.
00:22Demonstrators voiced their objection to the Trump administration's approach and policies,
00:27which they've labeled as damaging.
00:29Critics rallied against Trump tariff policies, which have sent global stock markets into
00:33a frenzy.
00:34Protesters also demonstrated against Musk, who runs the newly created Department of Government
00:39Efficiency, or DOGE.
00:41Musk has courted controversy for DOGE's aggressive cost-cutting measures, which have laid off
00:45thousands of federal employees and effectively shuttered entire agencies.
00:50Protests also spilled over beyond the borders, with various Hands Off marches taking place
00:54across European capitals.
00:57U.S. citizens living abroad, as well as foreign nationals critical of Trump, participated
01:01in protests from London to Berlin.
01:03Protesters rallied against U.S. foreign policy and advocated for Ukraine.
01:11The death toll from a Russian strike on the central Ukrainian city of Krivori has risen
01:15to 18.
01:17At least nine children were among those dead in the attack, with the youngest aged only
01:213.
01:22Ukrainian authorities say the Kremlin targeted a residential neighborhood with a ballistic
01:27missile.
01:28Moscow says it targeted a restaurant in the city where a meeting between military officers
01:32and Western instructors was taking place.
01:35At least 72 others were injured in the attack, about half remain in the hospital, 17 of which
01:41are still in critical condition.
01:43Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky says doctors are working around the clock to save
01:47as many lives as possible.
01:49The Ukrainian leader says the Kremlin's continuing attacks highlight their unwillingness to end
01:54the war, as he accuses Putin of stalling ceasefire efforts.
01:58He called on allies to exert more pressure on Moscow to force them into striking a peace
02:02deal, and pleaded for more military support to bolster air defenses.
02:10Austria has closed 24 small border crossings with Hungary and Slovakia in an effort to
02:15prevent foot and mouth disease from entering the country.
02:18Slovakia declared an emergency situation on Tuesday after the disease, commonly known
02:22as FMD, was detected on three farms.
02:25Hungary had its first outbreak of the highly infectious disease in 50 years on Wednesday.
02:31The disease, which poses no danger to humans, mostly affects cattle and other cloven-hoofed
02:35animals, like swine, sheep and goats, causing fever and mouth blisters.
02:41Outbreaks often lead to trade restrictions and culls of some livestock.
02:45Austrian health authorities are conducting rigorous checks at the few open border crossings.
02:50Cars and pedestrians crossing on foot have to pass over an epidemic rug to prevent the
02:54virus from spreading.
02:56Police are also searching vehicles at border points for meat products, which are restricted
03:00while this emergency persists.
03:03Authorities are also preparing contingencies in the case FMD is detected at an Austrian
03:07farm.
03:09Russia continues its Black Sea clean-up operation in the Kerch Strait after last December's
03:18oil spill from two storm-stricken Russian tankers, according to footage released by
03:24Russian authorities.
03:26The fuel oil spill of at least 3,700 tonnes happened in mid-December in the strait, which
03:33separates Russia and Ukraine's Russian-occupied Crimea.
03:38Two Russian oil tankers were caught in a storm.
03:41One broke in half and sank, while the other ran aground and also leaked oil.
03:46Russia's Ministry of Emergency Situations reported that more than 418 kilometers of
03:53shoreline have been cleared, over 154,000 tons of polluted sand and oil have been collected
04:00and an estimated €913 million has been spent on the clean-up.
04:10Thomas Müller will end his incredible journey with Bayern Munich this summer after 25 years
04:16at his boyhood club, but says he wasn't ready to leave.

04:25announcement on Saturday in a joint statement with Bayern.
