00:02:22A catastrophic earthquake hit Colombia. The Syrian War Crimes Court
00:02:26handed down a historic verdict. Donald Trump is seeking
00:02:30damages, and Tehran claims America is backed into a corner. The Washington
00:02:34Post reveals how Trump secretly left Turkey after the NATO
00:02:38summit. Welcome to
00:02:39Global.
00:02:47At least 132 people were killed, more than 570
00:02:51were injured in the devastating earthquake of magnitude
00:02:537.4 that struck western Colombia. A state
00:02:57of national disaster has been declared in the country, due to... a curfew
00:03:00has been imposed in the most vulnerable cities.
00:03:04into rubble after the US
00:03:08geological survey says a
00:03:117.4 magnitude earthquake struck
00:03:14Colombia. The epicenter was in
00:03:17us the good in people. San Jose del Pomar, about 150 miles or 240 km
00:03:21west of the capital of Bogata, but tremors were felt in several
00:03:25cities, setting off alarms and sending people scrambling. Today
00:03:29it's a really scary day and I
00:03:33was at the office so I felt a strong
00:03:37sound coming from the floor.
00:03:40Survivors say they are fortunate to have gotten
00:03:43out. This video shows family including the
00:03:47family dogs bolting for cover inside an apartment
00:03:50bathroom while the building shakes around
00:03:52them.
00:03:55The mayor of Cali reported at least 30 buildings collapsed when the
00:03:58ground shook. Previous president says upwards of
00:04:0260 buildings toppled across the country with more than 100
00:04:05killed, dozens injured, over 1500 homes
00:04:09damaged and six airports with infrastructure
00:04:12damage. The death toll is expected to
00:04:15rise. We have a one and three chance that we could
00:04:19experience over a thousand fatalities just
00:04:21because of the severity of the shaking. Over 8
00:04:25million people felt strong shaking. According to
00:04:29officials, the...
00:04:44Former Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, his brother Maher,
00:04:47and cousin Hatef Najib were sentenced to death by the Damascus court
00:04:51for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The court found that
00:04:54Assad was the main perpetrator of mass murders, torture, chemical
00:04:58attacks during the conflict in which about half
00:05:01a million people died, while Assad and his brother have been on the run in
00:05:05Russia since the fall of the regime in December 2024. Najib heard
00:05:09the verdict in the courtroom. This is the first death sentence by the transitional
00:05:12authorities against the leaders of the former
00:05:14regime.
00:05:19The judicial panel unanimously at the end of the trial made the following decision
00:05:23on behalf of the Arab people in Syria. The court unanimously
00:05:26decides the following: first, the accused in absentia Bashar al-Assad, son
00:05:29of Hafez, mother Anise, born
00:05:32in 1965, is found guilty of the criminal act of murder with
00:05:36premeditation, the criminal act of murder with intent of multiple persons, murder with
00:05:40intent of children under 15 years of age, murder with intent accompanied by acts
00:05:44of torture and cruelty, and the criminal act of incitement to murder with
00:05:48premeditation and murder with intent on multiple occasions, which qualifies
00:05:52as a crime against humanity, war crimes, and for the criminal act
00:05:55of torture, torture with fatal outcome, as well as the criminal act
00:05:58of deprivation of liberty on multiple occasions, which qualifies as a crime against
00:06:02humanity, war crimes, committed from
00:06:04February 15, 2011 and henceforth, and is therefore
00:06:08sentenced to the death penalty. The accused Atef Najib, son of
00:06:12Najib, is also found guilty of the criminal act of assault with the aim of causing
00:06:15civil war and inter-ethnic conflict, punishable under Article
00:06:18298 of the General Criminal Code, the sentences of
00:06:22deprivation of liberty shall be combined and the harshest penalty shall be
00:06:25executed, which is the death penalty in accordance with Article
00:06:29204 of the General Criminal Code, with the aggregation of all
00:06:32fines and their full execution.
00:06:40The American president has toughened his rhetoric towards Tehran,
00:06:43demanding that Iran pay compensation for those killed in wars, attacks and
00:06:47protests. The demand came as a response to Tehran's conditions for reopening
00:06:51Hormuz, in which Iran demands the lifting of the American naval
00:06:55blockade and sanctions. Due to the new escalation of relations and the reduced
00:06:59number of ships in the Strait, oil prices jumped by
00:07:015%. And while Trump claims that Washington controls this key
00:07:05waterway, Tehran says that the US is forced to
00:07:09negotiate.
00:07:15No one thought that Iran could resist America in this way, with
00:07:18the support of the Israeli regime and many other countries,
00:07:21including all Western countries and some others that we all know, and that
00:07:25they would not bow their heads, but that they would eventually force the enemy to
00:07:28seek negotiations. The American president wrote two words at the beginning of the war:
00:07:32"Unconditional surrender," that's what they asked
00:07:35of us, and that same enemy after about 20 days begged for
00:07:39negotiations. In diplomacy, the Iranian nation... has shown that
00:07:43it knows very well how to defend its rights. I heard this from various
00:07:47officials, exactly these words: you won the war, in
00:07:50diplomacy.
00:07:58Due to Iran's assassination threat, Donald Trump was secretly transferred from
00:08:02Turkey to Great Britain by a small military plane, as reported by
00:08:05the Washington Post, to throw off the trail, the president boarded
00:08:09Air Force One in front of the cameras, which served as a decoy, and then
00:08:13was transported by food truck to another aircraft.
00:08:17We do start with breaking news tonight and some stunning new reporting on an
00:08:20elaborate ruse to conceal the secret plane that President Trump used
00:08:24to fly out of Turkey last month. The Washington Post
00:08:28reports this tonight, saying quote, an Iranian assassination threat
00:08:31against President Trump prompted an extraordinary operation in
00:08:35which he flew secretly from Turkey on an alternate
00:08:39military aircraft while the White House said he was a for
00:08:42Air Force 1. If you look back at the video from
00:08:46that day now, you can see how this clandestine mission played
00:08:49out. President Trump was seen boarding Air Force 1 at
00:08:538:24 p.m. local time on July 8th,
00:08:56but actually, according to the post, and you can see here, Trump
00:09:00and several of his aids were secretly shuttled minutes later onto
00:09:04this airport catering truck, which was elevated and
00:09:07positioned a door out of the view of the
00:09:10cameras. now the post report, that the president was on that
00:09:13catering truck when it pulled away from Air Force 1 at 8:30
00:09:17p.m. secretly bringing him to a smaller plane and Air
00:09:21Force C32A,
00:09:23making the air force one that everyone thought he was on,
00:09:26decoy, that still had the reporters who thought the president had boarded
00:09:30that plane, and who you see boarding right here on the right, and some white
00:09:33house staff aboard. The Washington Post reports and I
00:09:37quote, the maneuver meant that the president's actual location was
00:09:41concealed from the... American public and many senior US
00:09:44officials for hours. Air Force
00:09:47One then landed in the UK hours later. Now, it's
00:09:51still not clear as the post notes tonight, how the president was
00:09:54transported from that other secret plane back onto Air
00:09:58Force One, after it landed. You see here, the
00:10:01reporters captured the president getting off the plane that they
00:10:04thought he had just flown on with them to the UK, and he's seen
00:10:08coming down the stairs just before 11 p.m. After greeting
00:10:12America. service members on the tarmac Trump got on the new Air Force
00:10:16One jet, that's the one that was given to the president by the Qatari
00:10:19government and then he flew back to Washington. Now the plane that
00:10:23he's getting on here is not to be confused with the old air force 1
00:10:27decoy or the military plane that he flew on
00:10:29secretly, but it was when the president got back on this plane
00:10:33to fly home to the US that he was asked by reporters why they
00:10:37had been told to lower their window shades on that first flight
00:10:41which is extremely unusual and not typically something that happens for the press
00:10:45that sits on the right side of the plane, which is where that airport
00:10:48catering truck was now that you look back at that other video, but given
00:10:52what we know now, given the pictures that you can't see now, it makes what the
00:10:56president told reporters in that gaggle afterward, all the more
00:11:00noteworthy. You're saying there wasn't a security
00:11:04concern? No, no. Do you know why they had us close our
00:11:07window blinds? That was not usually. Well, yeah,
00:11:11because, uh, you're
00:11:14probably in a dangerous sleep because of the sleaze bags that
00:11:18we have to think that Iran was possibly
00:11:21thinking, I mean, if they ask you to close your windows, probably they felt the way they did.
00:11:25Asked me to close mine, but if they did, I would have done it. Were you aware of any credible threat
00:11:29by Iran against your first one? Well, I have a threat all the time. I'm number one on their
00:11:33list before you, but if I go, you go,
00:11:36right? But was there specifics perhaps someday you want to change
00:11:40professions?
00:11:43If I go, you go, though the president
00:11:46wasn't actually on the same plane as the reporters who were asking him that
00:11:50question, and when they asked him about why they had to lower their own shades,
00:11:54the president said he wasn't told to lower his. Well, he was on a
00:11:58secret plane, he was not on the same plane that those reporters
00:12:02and some White House staffers were flying
00:12:04on.
00:12:11That would be all for this edition of Global, as always, the latest
00:12:14world news can be found on our social networks and our
00:12:18web portals. Goodbye until
00:12:20tomorrow.
00:13:18The happiness we seek eludes us, the happiness we
00:13:21give returns to us, as for
00:13:25the steps as an organization, we actually arose very
00:13:28spontaneously, a few months ago when the
00:13:32epidemic was spreading through Serbia and when the hospitals
00:13:35in Sandžak really ran out
00:13:39of materials, equipment, hygiene
00:13:42products, that is, everything that was necessary, our friends
00:13:46activists from Sandžak contacted us, people from
00:13:49hospitals contacted us, we then launched the first action,
00:13:52thanks to the support of the then fund. B92,
00:13:56our friends, activists from the recently founded Belgrade,
00:13:59we managed to collect the first contingent of aid
00:14:02after that we said, well, since this is going
00:14:06as it should, so more than 30,000 euros were collected then,
00:14:10let's work on supporting all those who
00:14:13need that support during the epidemic, the school year
00:14:17has started, just before the very beginning of the school
00:14:20year, the ministry announced that the recommendations
00:14:23of our crisis staff... international
00:14:26organizations that deal with suppressing the pandemic
00:14:30and students wear masks, the decision
00:14:33was made to deal with that issue, we quickly
00:14:37realized, of course, that not all parents would be able to continuously
00:14:41buy masks, and this is the first action that actually
00:14:44collects masks for boys and girls whose
00:14:48families are numerous, a little poorer than others
00:14:52for whom a mask is welcome as part of our... campaign
00:14:55"Support Students, Support Schools," where our goal is to collect
00:14:59funds for the purchase of masks, reusable masks for children
00:15:03from socially vulnerable families, according to some estimates, there are about
00:15:0770,000
00:15:09such children in Serbia, so the Ministry
00:15:12of Education has prescribed the obligation of wearing masks in schools, on the
00:15:16other hand, funds have not been provided
00:15:19for these masks, and we have a quite
00:15:23large number of children who practically fall out of that
00:15:26system, this is the second action we
00:15:29are doing to promote donation as an idea,
00:15:33Marko Somborac helps us, who draws people on the streets
00:15:36of cities, smaller and larger, hopefully, of Serbia,
00:15:40they donate funds, we buy
00:15:43masks for boys and girls
00:15:46disinfectant for schools, and that's how it
00:15:50grows, meaning we have already managed to provide 1600
00:15:53reusable masks, on Monday, those
00:15:57masks go to seven elementary schools in the municipality
00:16:00of Prijepolje, to one school in Novi Sad, Jože
00:16:03Fatila, with the masks we also have
00:16:06a coloring book which was inspired by Corona
00:16:10and made by Marko Somborac, we also
00:16:14send that to children in lower elementary school grades, as well as
00:16:17a class schedule which Marko Somborac also
00:16:20made, so we tried, I would say, in addition to that, we have
00:16:24a didactic material which is
00:16:27interesting, when they asked me, when they
00:16:30told me what it was about, that we needed to raise funds
00:16:34for uh for families and
00:16:37schools that have difficulty in obtaining
00:16:40masks and, well, disinfectant funds,
00:16:43it seemed obvious
00:16:46to me to agree, and
00:16:49I always suggest that when there's an
00:16:53action, I can participate by drawing passers-by
00:16:57and they donate,
00:16:59so it's obvious to me to
00:17:03accept it, I don't know how to answer why, because
00:17:06that's how it should be. "On a personal level, it actually
00:17:09brings a special kind of satisfaction, I would say,
00:17:13when unknown people
00:17:16you don't know,
00:17:19you don't know you helped them, contact you with a nice message,
00:17:23so that's, I would say, on a personal level, it might
00:17:26be that, I would say, but that is still
00:17:29a secondary motive, the primary motive is actually to
00:17:33make our society as a whole, to try to make it better
00:17:37together." That's what I would
00:17:39say, what our, I would say,
00:17:42principled and practical aspirations are, there are many people
00:17:46who need help, whoever can
00:17:49give time or some of their
00:17:52resources, is welcome,
00:17:55so problems like that cannot
00:17:59be solved differently without solidarity, so
00:18:02that's why it's important, it brings
00:18:05the satisfaction of giving, I... "I completely follow,
00:18:09I follow the maxim that whoever gives
00:18:13gains, that is, thanks should be given by the one who
00:18:16gives, that's how I conduct myself in everyday life and
00:18:20I often join such actions, whether they are organized by
00:18:23my friends or complete strangers, so
00:18:27I often donate as much as I can, I often
00:18:30help with my unpaid work, that
00:18:33is also something we can give, which is not
00:18:36material." But it is important because a lot of work is needed to
00:18:40successfully carry out
00:18:41an action.
00:18:45Good deeds must not go unnoticed.

00:19:46It might sound like science fiction, but in the Swiss Alps, it may
00:19:50soon become reality. In the
00:19:52Gotthard Massif, researchers at the University of Zurich
00:19:56hope to trigger a small earthquake. If it
00:19:59works, it could reveal more about how earthquakes
00:20:02start, and whether they can be
00:20:04predicted.
00:20:08All this and more groundbreaking stories on DW's Science
00:20:12Show. Welcome to Tomorrow
00:20:14Today.
00:20:21The big moment is just days away. Researchers at
00:20:24ETH Zurich University are hoping to do something that's never been
00:20:28done in quite this way before, deliberately triggering a small
00:20:32earthquake.
00:20:34But first, there's still plenty of work to do.
00:20:39A narrow road leads two and a half kilometers deep into the Gotthard
00:20:43Massif. The Badretto tunnel underneath the mountain
00:20:46range is more than 50 years old and no longer in
00:20:50use. And now it's a perfect natural laboratory. Here the
00:20:54team hopes to make ancient fault deep inside the rock slip ever so
00:20:58slightly. We're here because of this fault
00:21:02zone. You can see the boundary here clearly, a thin
00:21:05line. In the middle, there's this very brittle
00:21:08material called fault gouge.
00:21:12That's evidence that the rock has slipped along this fault line
00:21:14before. This is where we're hoping to trigger a magnitude
00:21:18one earthquake.
00:21:50The underlying physics better, perhaps one day we'll be able to make better
00:21:53forecasts.
00:21:56Men Andren Maya and his 70 member team have been planning and
00:21:59building this experiment for 5 years. They've installed
00:22:03more than 200 sensors inside the mountain, hoping to capture
00:22:07every moment of the earthquake as it
00:22:08unfolds.
00:22:12Here's how they plan to trigger it. The fault has
00:22:15slipped naturally before, producing tiny
00:22:17earthquakes.
00:22:23To reach it, the team has excavated new tunnel branching
00:22:26off from the Bagetta lab.
00:22:30From here, they'll pump water through three bore holes directly
00:22:34into the fault.
00:22:37As water pressure increases, the rock begins to shift. The
00:22:41existing stresses in the rock are released, triggering micro
00:22:45earthquake.
00:22:48Using six high pressure pumps, they'll inject around
00:22:512 cubic meters of water into the bore holes to bring the
00:22:55fault to the point where it slips.
00:22:59The pump system operates at pressures approaching 200 bar,
00:23:03a demanding test for the equipment and a potential
00:23:06hazard for anyone inside the
00:23:07tunnel.
00:23:10These are the anchoring systems. They're
00:23:13secured with chains and anchor pins in case the pressure becomes too
00:23:17high and part of the pipe work comes loose.
00:24:20Everything looks good and we're ready to
00:24:21go. The researchers are
00:24:25optimistic, the pumps are ready and the safety systems are in
00:24:29place.
00:24:32So this button is to manually stop the
00:24:35pump. So we can press this button. Once we have it pressed
00:24:38for about 8 seconds, the pumps in the tunnel will stop
00:24:41automatically. And this is a safety procedure that will allow
00:24:44to have a bit more control. The
00:24:47last members of the team have just left the
00:24:51steam to, and that's pressure up by one
00:24:54megapascal. Here we
00:24:56go.
00:25:02The pumps are starting up, forcing water deep into the bore
00:25:05holes.
00:25:09The data stream to Zurich is running smoothly. Just in
00:25:13case. Now comes the waiting
00:25:16game, watching the instruments and waiting for the...
00:25:30to slip. Pressure inside the fault continues to rise, approaching 100 bar. Then suddenly a flood of new data
00:25:33appears. Deep inside the mountain, something has
00:25:36begun to
00:25:37move.
00:25:41We've already detected and located more than a thousand quakes since we started
00:25:45the simulation. They're almost certainly induced by us given
00:25:48their number and size.
00:26:32But the thousands of microquakes are already providing valuable
00:26:36clues about how earthquakes
00:26:38begin.
00:26:40Soon they'll try again, hoping to make one tiny part of the
00:26:43Gotthard Massif slip, just enough to trigger the mini
00:26:47earthquake they've been waiting
00:26:48for.
