01:09buildings, fueling fears of potential clashes with protesters.
01:14Vucic himself made claims that violence was planned at the rally and threatened arrests

01:26huge crowds.
01:31UK Prime Minister Kirstjana calls Ukraine the party of peace and says Putin is trying
01:37to delay a ceasefire during a press conference which followed a virtual meeting with allies
01:43on Saturday.
01:44Starmer clarified what allies had discussed that morning.
01:48We agreed we will keep increasing the pressure on Russia, keep the military aid flowing to
01:54Ukraine and keep tightening the restrictions on Russia's economy to weaken Putin's war
02:01machine and bring him to the table.
02:04During his virtual meeting, Starmer said Putin will sooner or later have to come to the table,
02:10calling allies to keep the pressure on Putin to back a ceasefire in Ukraine.
02:16On Thursday, allied militaries will meet in the UK to discuss what part they shall play
02:22in the peace deal and how they will guarantee Ukraine's future and security.
02:33Russia announced that its forces had recaptured the Suja settlement in the Kursk region from
02:37Ukraine.
02:39Suja was the biggest town seized by Ukrainian forces as part of their surprise cross-border
02:44offensive last year.
02:47The Kremlin carried out an intense aerial campaign to reclaim land ceded to Kiev.
02:54Russia's defense ministry say they've recaptured close to 30 settlements and freed them from
02:58Ukrainian control over the past week.
03:02They added that their operations have destroyed many of Kiev's key military assets, including
03:06armored combat vehicles and UAV control points.
03:12Ukraine's top military commander says the Russian operations on Kursk have almost completely
03:16destroyed Suja.

03:24that troops were shifting to more advantageous positions.

03:53the move, calling it a serious violation of the Dayton Peace Accord and warning of

04:06a final vote in the assembly.

04:17the dark.
04:19The outage left 42 percent of the national energy system shut down, according to the
04:24Electric Union.
04:26Power outages are not unusual in Cuba and are primarily caused by fuel shortages and
04:31aging infrastructure.
04:33Authorities on the island have begun a program to install photovoltaic parks and promise
04:38that dozens of them will be ready this year.
