[00:00:01] A Mayor's Summit called Sarajevo Majors [00:00:05] Summit 2026 was held today in the Sarajevo [00:00:08] City Hall. Under the motto "From Sarajevo to Future," mayors of [00:00:12] Zagreb, Ljubljana, Podgorica, Priština, Ankara, Istanbul, Brussels [00:00:15] discussed key challenges and opportunities for the development of modern [00:00:19] cities, including sustainable urban development, green and digital [00:00:22] transition, preservation of peace and multiculturalism, [00:00:26] strengthening regional cooperation and development of joint projects through [00:00:29] European funds and international partnerships. [00:00:32] Experiences were exchanged, guidelines for future cooperation were given, and the Sarajevo [00:00:36] Declaration 2026 [00:00:38] was signed and adopted, which emphasizes the important role of cities [00:00:42] in building a more stable, connected, and sustainable [00:00:45] region. First of all, [00:00:48] we want to have [00:00:51] satisfied citizens, but also [00:00:55] to make sure that they [00:00:57] permanently live comfortably and with quality. to live, to be able to satisfy their [00:01:01] existential needs, that is the part that [00:01:04] concerns urban sustainable [00:01:07] development, of course climate change that absolutely [00:01:11] does not bypass us today we witnessed [00:01:14] and mayors who had the opportunity to [00:01:18] address and share their experiences, [00:01:21] thoughts, and even certain recommendations on how to behave in [00:01:25] critical situations, they did [00:01:27] so. [00:01:30] "The key thing is to improve public transport, but we also [00:01:33] discussed at the summit the use of modern [00:01:37] technologies for smart city management, specifically when it comes to [00:01:40] traffic, meaning central traffic management through [00:01:44] automated cameras, and in the second phase [00:01:47] through artificial intelligence. What is the idea is that [00:01:51] our experiences in improving traffic should be shared [00:01:55] with each other, because it seems to me that we have similar problems [00:01:58] for, for example, Sarajevo, rather than Zagreb and [00:02:01] Amsterdam. [00:02:07] For the European Union, of course, it is clear that support is very important [00:02:11] because we believe that cities and local communities truly play a very important [00:02:14] role when it comes to integration into the European Union. So, not only here [00:02:18] in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also for some other countries, some of which [00:02:21] have already become members of the European Union. Therefore, our [00:02:25] support is truly very important in this role, as [00:02:29] these are... [00:02:39] the bridge and ships in the Stay tuned for the news. In the continuation, we bring you news from [00:02:40] around the world. [00:02:44] At least six people died in floods caused by heavy rains [00:02:48] in Japan, traffic [00:02:50] paralyzed. [00:02:55] Russia rejected the idea of a ceasefire with Ukraine in the Black Sea, which was [00:02:59] proposed by Turkey. The spokeswoman of the Ministry of Foreign [00:03:02] Affairs of Russia, Maria Zakharova, said that it is a half-hearted [00:03:05] solution and that there is no basis to enable a respite in Ukraine [00:03:09] in that way. Russia and Ukraine have been more intensely shelling [00:03:12] ships and ports in the Black Sea in recent weeks, which has disrupted grain trade and led [00:03:16] to a rise in grain prices. At the same time, the Minister of Foreign Affairs [00:03:20] of Russia stated that Moscow has requested an official explanation [00:03:24] from the US for helping Ukraine target Russian [00:03:27] territory. [00:03:30] We have sent a series of questions to the US State Department demanding [00:03:33] a comment. This includes the question of intelligence data and the fact that [00:03:37] America is deeply involved in both planning and executing attacks on [00:03:41] civilian targets deep within Russian territory. We are waiting [00:03:45] for a response. [00:03:47] US President Donald Trump announced the imposition of 100% tariffs [00:03:50] on drone imports and drone components. For [00:03:54] allied countries such as European Union countries, Japan, South [00:03:57] Korea, Switzerland, and Taiwan, tariffs of [00:04:00] 15% will apply. Drones and drone components from Great Britain [00:04:04] will be tariffed at a rate of 10%, the White [00:04:07] House announced. The US President stated that the US is too [00:04:11] dependent on foreign companies and foreign drone [00:04:14] components. The tariffs will take effect in 21 [00:04:17] days. [00:04:21] At least six people died in floods caused by heavy rains [00:04:24] in Japan. Dozens of homes and roads were flooded. [00:04:28] Heavy rain and floods left 20,000 households without [00:04:31] electricity. Around 7,000 people were stranded at [00:04:34] Tokyo airport because railway traffic [00:04:37] was suspended. Trains have been partially running since this morning, while flights [00:04:40] are operating normally. In eastern Japan, more than 100 mm of [00:04:44] rain fell in just one hour on Thursday, which is 100 liters per [00:04:48] square meter. [00:04:52] Rescue teams continued the search for survivors after [00:04:55] the devastating earthquake that hit Colombia, while the death toll continues [00:04:59] to rise. According to the latest data, 281 people [00:05:01] lost their lives, while about 4,000 people were injured. [00:05:05] The National Unit for Disaster Risk Management in Colombia [00:05:09] warned that time is running out to find survivors. [00:05:17] 10,067 [00:05:21] houses were destroyed, and over 65,000 were damaged. Damage was [00:05:24] also reported on about 200 roads, dozens of [00:05:28] bridges, and five [00:05:29] airports were destroyed. We have [00:05:33] 3,971 injured people. The number of people [00:05:37] reported missing has unfortunately risen to [00:05:39] 379. Our priority is to continue the search for people [00:05:43] trapped in the [00:05:44] rubble. [00:10:54] Trebinje had 35 and 37 degrees [00:10:57] today, and tomorrow in all of Bosnia and Herzegovina, sunny weather [00:11:01] in more detail in the forecast. [00:11:04] The weekend in Bosnia and Herzegovina brings sunny, very warm [00:11:07] weather. At the beginning of next week, a change in weather arrives, [00:11:10] rain, showers, and a drop in temperature. During the weekend, [00:11:14] it remains stable and warm, locally intensified wind on [00:11:18] Monday, then cloudiness increases, scattered showers and [00:11:21] thunderstorms are possible. From Tuesday, a cooler air mass [00:11:25] arrives, with clouds, rain in Bosnia, and a drop [00:11:28] in temperature. The weather on Saturday will be sunny, with light to moderate wind in the [00:11:32] south and southwest, and in the rest of the country, eastern and [00:11:35] northeastern. The morning minimum temperature in Bosnia will be from [00:11:39] 10 to 16 degrees Celsius, in Herzegovina up to 25, while the [00:11:43] highest daily temperature will be from 32 to 34 [00:11:46] degrees, in the south up to 37. Sunny [00:11:49] and warm will remain for another week, with temperatures still over [00:11:53] 35°. On Monday, there will be a gradual increase in clouds, [00:11:57] with rain and showers, and some thunderstorms, although it will still be warm on Monday. [00:12:01] From Tuesday, it will be mostly cloudy, rainy, [00:12:05] followed by a drop in temperature, so the highest daily temperature will be from [00:12:08] 24 to 33 [00:12:10] degrees. [00:12:13] And that would be all for this edition of the daily news, dear viewers, please stay with N1, [00:12:17] at 9 PM do not miss the special broadcast dedicated [00:12:20] to the 32nd Sarajevo Film Festival, presented by [00:12:23] our colleague Adrijana Gavrić. Thank you for your attention, goodbye. [00:13:09] Israeli settlers are causing problems for Palestinians in the West [00:13:12] Bank, Russia and Ukraine continue fierce attacks on each [00:13:16] other, and Zelensky says after his presidential term, he [00:13:19] wants a break. Welcome to [00:13:21] Global. [00:13:30] On the occupied West Bank, tensions are not easing. [00:13:33] Palestinian families in the village of Kusra have been under [00:13:36] siege by extremist Israeli settlers for days. Their goal is [00:13:40] clear: to force residents to leave so they can take over their [00:13:43] homes. Water and electricity have been cut off to the families, [00:13:47] and access to homes is blocked. Although these are [00:13:50] illegal actions, the Israeli army on the ground, instead of protecting them, [00:13:54] often does nothing. Access is denied to news crews, [00:13:57] claiming it is a closed military zone. [00:14:01] The view from this Palestinian home is the same from every [00:14:05] angle, Israeli settlers everywhere you [00:14:08] look. For days now, they've set up camp and [00:14:11] surrounded three homes on this hilltop in the occupied West Bank [00:14:15] in a bid to force the residents out and take [00:14:18] over. They've cut water and power lines and have [00:14:22] tried to stop anyone from approaching. All of [00:14:25] this is illegal, and yet this is what happened when Palestinian [00:14:29] residents first called the Israeli military. The soldiers [00:14:33] joined the settlers in prayer. They start hugging [00:14:36] the settlers and they start praying with the [00:14:40] settlers and absolutely did nothing to protect [00:14:44] my brother and his son. Louie Reddi [00:14:47] owns one of those houses. A Palestinian American, he's [00:14:51] watched all of this unfold from Ohio. [00:14:55] And this is what he saw on Wednesday, the [00:14:58] Israeli military trying and ultimately failing to remove the [00:15:02] settlers from the area. [00:15:05] Hours later, we drive up the hill to see if anything has changed. [00:15:09] So these are actually the three homes that have been [00:15:12] besieged by these settlers for four days now. Uh, we're going to try [00:15:16] and climb up this hill, see if we can get past the [00:15:19] settlers. We are blocking the area. The settlers [00:15:23] are still there, and so are two Israeli soldiers who order us [00:15:27] to stop and turn off our vehicle. The [00:15:30] soldier tells me this is now a closed military area, and that we're [00:15:33] interfering with military activity. [00:15:46] an IDF spokesperson said the order does apply to the settlers, but it's clearly not being enforced. They're telling us that it's a closed military zone that we're not allowed to [00:15:50] be here, but at the same time we're seeing multiple Israeli settlers who are [00:15:54] here, are not being made to leave and who are continuing to block the [00:15:57] access to these homes. Down the hill, we [00:16:00] call Louie's brother Kusai who's been staying in his [00:16:03] home. Kusai, this is the closest we're able to get to your home. [00:16:07] Unfortunately, how are you doing? Do you still have [00:16:10] supplies? [00:16:12] The food I have is going to run out in two to three days, beyond that I have no [00:16:16] food, nothing, he says, but at the same time, even if I run out of [00:16:20] food, I will not leave the house. So do you have any [00:16:23] hope that these settlers are actually going to be kicked out of this [00:16:27] area? Honestly, from what I saw today, the [00:16:30] settlers were monstrous, he explains. They even attacked the [00:16:33] Israeli army forcing them to fire sound grenades and tear gas. [00:16:37] have their eyes set on the house in this hilltop, they want to take [00:16:40] it. The Israeli military says it is stepping up its [00:16:44] efforts to rout the settlers, deploying an infantry battalion [00:16:47] to the area to quote protect the residents and maintain [00:16:51] security. But Kusai's fears aren't [00:16:54] abstract. In recent weeks, settlers in this area have set [00:16:58] fire to a mosque and besieged this home. [00:17:01] This right here is why those families are afraid to leave their [00:17:05] homes. You can see Israeli settlers on the rooftop of [00:17:08] this house here, three weeks ago. Palestinians were living in that [00:17:12] house, but it's been taken over by Israeli settlers, with a [00:17:15] messianic flag now flying above it. These settlers want [00:17:19] their presence known from one hilltop to the [00:17:22] next. Jeremy Diamond, CNN, [00:17:26] Kusra, the West [00:17:27] Bank. [00:17:36] For that to Ukraine. Geopolitical analyst Božo Kovačević spoke to N1 about [00:17:39] achieving a truce. Well, it is obvious that [00:17:43] Russia cannot defend Crimea, there is a crisis of [00:17:47] food supply and water [00:17:50] in Crimea, uh, fuel, uh, [00:17:53] fuel is distributed only to state services and [00:17:57] the army, tourists, Russian tourists [00:18:00] are massively leaving Crimea and we know that that [00:18:04] bridge, traffic over the bridge that Russia connected [00:18:08] with the Russian mainland, is not functioning because [00:18:11] the Ukrainians are successfully attacking [00:18:16] Black Sea and that is why Ukraine put forward that [00:18:20] proposal, we will not attack you, do not attack [00:18:23] us. So now, if Moscow accepted [00:18:27] such an agreement, could [00:18:29] a model of limited agreements be reached, sea, [00:18:33] energy, infrastructure, that is, uh, maybe [00:18:36] to start arranging different [00:18:40] sectors in relationships that could [00:18:43] then perhaps long-term lead to some concrete [00:18:45] solutions? Well, I think it would be reasonable to [00:18:49] start that way if it doesn't work otherwise, [00:18:52] but for now from the Russian side [00:18:55] there are no clearly visible signals that [00:18:58] Russia is ready for such kind of negotiations [00:19:02] on ceasefires in limited parts of the [00:19:05] front, likewise. Russia actually [00:19:09] still refuses to agree to negotiations [00:19:12] on a ceasefire or to implement a ceasefire before [00:19:16] the start of negotiations on peace, in fact Russia [00:19:19] prejudges the outcome of negotiations on peace in order to [00:19:23] agree to a ceasefire. Why? Well, [00:19:27] because President Putin does not want to give up [00:19:30] achieving his war goals, he does not want [00:19:33] to admit that Russia has actually lost that [00:19:44] war. CNN's Payton Walsh had a rare opportunity to talk with [00:19:48] the President of Ukraine in a relaxed atmosphere about future [00:19:52] work and life after the end of his presidential career. [00:20:06] So you have said in the [00:20:09] past that when this war is over you just want to sit on the beach yeah and drink beer [00:20:13] yeah is that still your abiding feeling or do you know that there'll [00:20:17] be more work to do afterwards [00:20:19] I want, I want really need some [00:20:22] time, need some time with with my family and [00:20:26] and mean that's a key question because this must be for [00:20:30] you physically incredibly exhausting to deal with the [00:20:33] loss, the pressure. You say every morning phone calls about Patriot intercept. [00:20:41] Um, how you handle that particular stress. Do you get to talk to your kids every day or every day, [00:20:45] but but but sometimes by phone, of course, not every day I [00:20:49] can see them. But, uh, I mean, this, I'm very happy [00:20:52] with what you say to them, to them, morning, how are [00:20:56] you, how, how are things, yes, and [00:21:00] they they tell me what the dreams [00:21:04] they had, you miss them, miss [00:21:07] of course, of course miss and of course I [00:21:10] always say how I love them. And it's [00:21:14] like, like, you physically need to hate [00:21:17] them. You, so we understand this, like [00:21:20] big big support, big energy [00:21:23] support. Thank you, Mr. President. I have one last question. [00:21:27] What is that? This elephant, the elephant with the [00:21:30] cold, with what is it? You [00:21:33] know, this is very historic [00:21:36] building. [00:21:40] Thank you very much. Thank you. Gave me some moment [00:21:44] to relax. Please have it removed. Get time on the beach at some point, [00:21:47] somewhere, after the... [00:22:12] And that would be all for this week in Global. Until Monday, find the latest [00:22:16] world news on our web portals and social networks. [00:28:27] We do start with breaking news tonight and some stunning new reporting on an [00:28:30] elaborate ruse to conceal the secret plane that President Trump used [00:28:34] to fly out of Turkey last month. The Washington Post [00:28:38] reports this tonight, saying quote, "An Iranian assassination threat [00:28:42] against President Trump prompted an extraordinary operation in [00:28:45] which he flew secretly from Turkey on an alternate [00:28:49] military aircraft, while the White House said he was aboard [00:28:52] Air Force 1. If you look back at the video from that [00:28:56] day now, you can see how this clandestine mission played [00:28:59] out. President Trump was seen boarding..." air force one at [00:29:03] 8:24 p.m. local time on July 8th, [00:29:06] but actually, according to the post, and you can see here, Trump [00:29:10] and several of his aides were secretly shuttled minutes later onto [00:29:14] this airport catering truck, which was elevated and [00:29:17] positioned a door out of the view of the [00:29:20] cameras. now the post reports that the president was on that [00:29:24] catering truck when it pulled away from Air Force One at 8:30 [00:29:27] p.m., secretly bringing him to a smaller plane and Air [00:29:31] Force C3 2A, making the air force one [00:29:34] that everyone thought he was on, decoy, that still had the [00:29:38] reporters who thought the president had boarded that plane, and who you see boarding [00:29:42] right here on the right, and some white house staff aboard. [00:29:46] The Washington Post reports, and I quote, the maneuver meant that the [00:29:49] president's actual location was concealed from the American [00:29:53] public and many senior US officials for [00:29:55] hours. Air Force One then landed in the UK [00:29:59] hours later. Now, it's still not clear, as the post notes [00:30:03] tonight, how the president was transported from that [00:30:06] other secret plane back onto air force 1 after it [00:30:09] landed. you see here the reporters captured the president [00:30:13] getting off the plane that they thought he had just flown on with them [00:30:16] to the UK and he's seen coming down the stairs just before 11 [00:30:20] p.m. after greeting American service members on the [00:30:23] tarmac Trump got on the new Air Force One jet that's the one [00:30:27] that was given to the president by the Katari government and then he flew [00:30:31] back to Washington. now the plane that he's getting on here is not to be [00:30:35] confused with the old air force 1 decoy or the military [00:30:38] plane that he flew on secretly, but it was when the [00:30:42] president got back on this plane to fly home to the [00:30:44] US that he was asked by reporters why they had been [00:30:48] told to lower their window shades on that first [00:30:50] flight, which is extremely unusual and not typically something that [00:30:54] happens for the press that sits on the right side of the plane, which is where that [00:30:58] airport catering truck was,
