00:00:00Anja was born here, but left very young. At that
00:00:04time, the place seemed cramped, boring to her, she lived
00:00:07in the Czech Republic and France, then near Munich, she did
00:00:11not expect
00:00:12to return.
00:00:18There are more people here, it feels like, more people who are eager to do something,
00:00:22more young people, it's actually almost every weekend there's
00:00:24something going on. And Anja wanted to give back to the
00:00:27community, so she founded an organization.
00:00:47recently next to Asada from Afghanistan and then they realized, oh, we live on the same
00:00:51street, we are neighbors and yes,
00:00:53she needed someone to help the children a bit with homework, he
00:00:58surface, on needed someone to help her with shopping and...
00:01:08Alternative for Germany convincingly won the state elections and
00:01:13almost won an absolute majority. If it came to power, it would be the first time in post-war
00:01:17Germany
00:01:19that a far-right party would lead a state.
00:01:23Anja Reismann and Thomas Haberkorn perceive this as
00:01:26a danger.
00:01:30uh the breaking of the neck for all those last over 10 years that we
00:01:34have invested in personal commitment in the city, in
00:01:37the place, in the country and that really makes me
00:01:41angry. I know, um, people who
00:01:44then, um, really want to move away, yes, so they
00:01:48clearly say, okay, if um, if that's an
00:01:51AfD for the federal state, then I don't want to live here, not here,
00:01:55there are people especially from the migrant community,
00:01:59um, who here um, see a
00:02:03professional perspective, maybe also have a job offer, who think very carefully,
00:02:07should I come to Saxony? and one
00:02:09scientific study shows that a rightward shift deters
00:02:13skilled labor. Thomas and Anja
00:02:15certainly remain in Zeitz, although dissatisfied with
00:02:19the shift to the right, they notice that people are closing ranks.
00:02:23Those who were engaged in the community are now even more
00:02:26dedicated to making Zeitz an even better place.
00:02:33channel DV Focus where you can also watch The Black Sea has become the front line of the war between Russia and Ukraine,
00:02:37your attention, goodbye. a battleground where food is destroyed,
00:02:40especially for the poorer regions
00:02:43of the world. The Black Sea route for grain transport from
00:02:47Ukrainian and Russian fields is a burden for the warring
00:02:50parties who deliberately attack ships with
00:02:53grain. Damaged vessels end up in
00:02:56Turkey, where a new business has flourished.
00:03:00At the Istanbul shipyard, there is a new, growing
00:03:04business: repairing cargo ships damaged by
00:03:07Russian or Ukrainian forces. This grain carrier
00:03:10was the latest target, one of several
00:03:14hundred ships hit in the Black Sea in recent
00:03:17months. Assistant Manager Omer Butun
00:03:21says that the extent of the damage shows that the ship was attacked with
00:03:24the aim of killing
00:03:26the crew.
00:03:30the accommodation part of the vessel was hit by the drones because
00:03:33they want to hit the captain or the
00:03:36crew, not transportation means
00:03:39no earnings for the country, this is a
00:03:43big repair works and it is
00:03:46difficult for ship owners to repair the vessel or
00:03:49maybe scrap the vessel, depends of the
00:03:53situation. button is already preparing to welcome
00:03:56the next damaged ship on...
00:04:31In recent months, Ukraine and Russia have intensified attacks on
00:04:35cargo ships, targeting crucial
00:04:38grain exports. The Turkish Chamber of Shipping
00:04:42estimates that over 160 ships have been targeted this year,
00:04:45while around one hundred ships are currently seeking
00:04:49safety in Black Sea ports. Russia and Ukraine
00:04:52together account for more than a quarter of the world's
00:04:56wheat exports, a large portion of which goes to ports on the Black
00:05:00Sea. Reckless attacks on ships and ports
00:05:04have almost completely paralyzed this trade
00:05:07route. While Moscow and Kyiv try
00:05:10to find alternative routes. International grain broker
00:05:14John Atpasoglu notes that prices are
00:05:18rising. Chicago wheat
00:05:21prices reached mul multi-year
00:05:25highs on Friday, so it
00:05:28is, it is being effective. It is not
00:05:31quite like a jump like doubling like it happened
00:05:34in the first year of the war, but it we
00:05:38can say it increased like
00:05:41almost 30% of.
00:06:09this struggle over grain, on which the countries of the Middle East and Africa depend, some of the most
00:06:14impoverished in the world, thus paying the price of conflict are those who absolutely
00:06:17cannot afford it.
00:06:20They are masters of their craft, coming from the roof of the world, from
00:06:24the Himalayas, in Norway they build stairs to
00:06:28heaven, well, towards heaven, not quite to
00:06:32heaven. They are the famous Sherpas, Nepalese
00:06:35builders known for their skill in building
00:06:38stone staircases, but how did they end up
00:06:41in...
00:06:45Nima Sherpa is almost 60 km away from his
00:06:49home in Nepal. Every year, he travels to Norway with
00:06:53a team of other Sherpas. Together,
00:06:56they manually build stone staircases on some of Norway's most famous
00:07:00hiking trails.
00:07:13For almost 20 years, the Sherpas, an indigenous people from
00:07:16the Himalayas, have been manually building these Sherpa
00:07:19stairs or Sherpa trappa, as the Norwegians
00:07:22call them.
00:07:25Today, these stairways to heaven have themselves become an attraction,
00:07:28bringing the mountains closer to hikers of all ages and
00:07:31abilities.
00:07:35So far, they have completed more than 200 staircases,
00:07:39ranging from 10 to more than 400 steps.
00:07:46How did the Sherpas from Nepal end up building stone staircases in
00:07:49Norway?
00:07:53More than 20 years ago, carpenter Geir Vetti
00:07:57was working on renovating a mountain farm, but the terrain was
00:08:00too steep for machinery, and the job was too demanding for most
00:08:03workers.
00:09:07From here, visitors can look across the Akrafjord
00:09:10and safely approach the edge of the mighty waterfall to
00:09:14take the perfect photograph.
00:09:25For Nima and his team, building these paths is more than
00:09:29a job. It is also a spiritual
00:09:30act.
00:09:33As Buddhists, above the stone paths they build, they place prayer
00:09:37flags, believing that the wind carries blessings and good
00:09:41wishes across the mountains.
00:09:43Bulgaria will be the center of the music world in a few months.
00:09:47With its victory at this year's Eurovision, the first in its history,
00:09:51Bulgaria automatically became the host of the next
00:09:54edition of the popular competition, specifically
00:09:57the city of Burgas, not Sofia, not Plovdiv, but
00:10:01Burgas, a tourist destination on the Black Sea coast
00:10:05which is facing an influx of fans of light music
00:10:08festivals. Is Burgas even ready for all
00:10:11of that? "After Dara won Eurovision this year
00:10:15with her song Bangaranga, the Eurovision
00:10:19Song Contest 2027
00:10:22is coming to Bulgaria for the first time in history. The world's biggest
00:10:26music competition will not be held in the capital Sofia
00:10:30but in Burgas on the Black Sea coast. The fact that the city managed
00:10:33to win against Sofia, Plovdiv, and Varna
00:10:37surprised many Bulgarians, but also the residents of Burgas.
00:10:41It didn't surprise us at all. From the very beginning, we were sure that
00:10:44Burgas would win. We have the sea, the airport is relatively
00:10:47close. A very nice hall, which was recently built,
00:10:51huge, a great hall,
00:10:54and it's suitable. The base is huge. The
00:10:57Eurovision Song Contest can bring significant economic benefits
00:11:00to host cities. For example, in
00:11:042026, Vienna hosted around
00:11:06320,000 people at events related to
00:11:10Eurovision. A similar number of visitors could arrive
00:11:13in Burgas via the city's international airport.
00:11:17However, once visitors arrive in Burgas, the situation
00:11:21becomes more complex. The city has no subway,
00:11:25nor trams, most additional passengers
00:11:28will therefore have to be transported by buses.
00:11:31Currently, city buses transport up to
00:11:3572,000 passengers daily.
00:11:38The Mayor of Burgas, Dimitar Nikolov, says that preparations
00:11:41for the additional influx of visitors are already
00:11:44underway. We are an exceptionally open European city,
00:11:48a seaside center, we have had
00:11:50the opportunity for many years to welcome
00:11:53nationalities, ethnicities. all kinds of people from all over
00:11:56the world, so with additional strengthening of
00:11:59transport logistics, even better connectivity between
00:12:03all settlements around Burgas, I am convinced that we will
00:12:06manage. The venue for Eurovision should
00:12:10be Burgas Arena. The hall opened in
00:12:132023.
00:12:15It has about 7,000 seats and a capacity of up to
00:12:1915,000 people.
00:12:23It is already clear that for the needs of the competition, the hall will need
00:12:26additional adaptation.
00:12:29The Eurovision Song Contest could now
00:12:33make Burgas famous worldwide. Until
00:12:36next May, there is still a lot of work ahead for
00:12:39the organizers. But already, a wave of
00:12:43enthusiasm is spreading through Burgas.
00:12:46That's all for today. More interesting stories from Europe or a free

00:13:40earth,
00:13:49under the slopes of Prenj and Čvrsnica, along the banks of the
00:13:53blue Neretva. Located there is one of the smaller
00:13:56municipalities in Bosnia and
00:13:58Herzegovina.
00:14:03Today we fly over
00:14:05Jablanica.
00:14:14In this municipality, about 10,000
00:14:17inhabitants live, and unfortunately, the situation is similar to
00:14:21a large number of Bosnian-Herzegovinian municipalities.
00:14:32Unemployment in Jablanica is high, and
00:14:35the employed part of the population is mostly
00:14:38engaged in agriculture, beekeeping, stone and wood processing,
00:14:41and
00:14:43hospitality.
00:14:50This small town abounds in significant
00:14:53natural and cultural heritage resources.
00:14:56There are numerous monuments located in the area of this
00:15:00city that have been declared national
00:15:03monuments of Bosnia and
00:15:05Herzegovina.
00:15:08One of the most famous such monuments is the memorial
00:15:12complex of the Battle for the Wounded on
00:15:15the Neretva.
00:15:22This memorial complex is related to the commemoration
00:15:25of the Battle of Neretva, and it was officially opened
00:15:29on November 12, 1978,
00:15:32on the occasion of the 35th anniversary
00:15:35of the Battle of Neretva, by
00:15:37Josip Broz
00:15:39Tito.
00:15:45The most important exhibit of this memorial complex
00:15:48is the destroyed bridge over the Neretva River, which
00:15:52also represents the symbol of the Battle for
00:15:54the Wounded.
00:15:59Within the complex are the remains
00:16:01of the narrow-gauge railway and a wagon with
00:16:05a locomotive.
00:16:44In the upper part of the Neretva's course, a dam was built,
00:16:47and thus in 1953,
00:16:51the Jablanica Lake was created.
00:17:12This artificial lake stretches from Konjic to Jablanica.
00:17:30During the summer season, it attracts a large number of
00:17:33visitors who come to swim and camp.
00:17:38But as it is rich in diverse fish, it is a frequent
00:17:41destination for fishermen.
00:18:10The Herzegovinian jewel, the River Neretva, carved the most beautiful
00:18:14part of its canyon in the area around Jablanica.
00:18:34Shady banks overgrown with coniferous and beech
00:18:37forest make this part of the Neretva's course enchanting.
00:19:46The indispensable natural wealth located in
00:19:49the area of Jablanica is the unique Prenj
00:19:53gorge.
00:20:02It is adorned with a large number of valleys and canyons with
00:20:05high peaks and cliffs.
00:20:16The highest peak, Zelena Glava, is as high as
00:20:192155 meters, while parts of
00:20:23Prenj towards the banks of the Neretva in steep
00:20:26sections are 700 to
00:20:29800
00:20:30meters high.
00:20:40A few kilometers away from the center of Jablanica,
00:20:43Blidinje Nature Park
00:20:45is located.
00:20:50This is an area where many endemic species of
00:20:53flora and fauna can be found, as well as a large
00:20:56number of sources of clean and
00:21:00potable
00:21:00water.
00:21:04Blidinje Nature Park is rich in archaeological
00:21:07sites, considering that here is a necropolis
00:21:10with 150 stećak tombstones in Dugo
00:21:13Polje, which now has the status of a national
00:21:17monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
00:21:22However, the most famous natural attraction is Blidinje
00:21:26Lake. This is also the largest
00:21:29mountain lake in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located at
00:21:33an altitude of 1184
00:21:36m,
00:21:41and during the winter period, it completely freezes
00:21:44and turns into a glassy
00:21:48which it is possible to see reflections of the peaks of
00:21:51Čvrsnica.
00:22:00Although Jablanica is perhaps best known for
00:22:04Jablanica Lamb, which Jablanica residents say
00:22:07is the best in all of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
00:22:10The richness with which this small municipality abounds will
00:22:14nonetheless retain every visitor in both summer
00:22:17and winter, and provide a complete experience
00:22:20for everyone. The mountains, Prenj and Čvrsnica, are
00:22:24known as attractive destinations for hunting and
00:22:27mountaineering. Jablanica Lake
00:22:30is ideal for swimming and fishing in summer, and Blidinje
00:22:34Nature Park is ideal in winter.

00:23:06and its beauties from another perspective.
00:30:24Dear viewers, good evening, welcome to
00:30:26the news.
00:30:30Farmers in the Federation are demanding the declaration of
00:30:33a natural disaster due to prolonged drought. If urgent aid is not provided, a significant drop
00:30:37in domestic production and mass closure of farms across
00:30:40the Federation, and new
00:30:42price increases for citizens,
00:30:46the situation is...
00:30:49I don't remember it ever being harder regarding
00:30:53these disasters
00:30:55like this.
00:30:58in the news.
