ASSOCIATED PRESS

Rome - 12 June 2025

1. SOUNDBITE (English) Kaja Kallas, EU High Representative:

++ZOOMS IN FROM WIDE++

“When the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) was negotiated, we worked very closely with the U.S. Now the U.S. is negotiating separately, but we also have our contacts, because we have much larger concerns with Iran than just the nuclear. Their support to Russia in this war, also detention of EU citizens in Iran, also the cyber attacks and hybrid attacks that they have against European countries. So we have the snap back mechanism and the deadlines are approaching. So we are in contact with Iran expressing all these worries and also to really come to the decision regarding the deadlines and the mechanisms in JCPOA. We have to do this by the end of this summer and of course E3 has a very special role in this. But eventually also the European Union has to agree, all the 27, to fully lift the sanctions or put the sanctions back.”

STORYLINE:

The EU's top diplomat Kaja Kallas said Europe will decide this summer whether or not to continue imposing sanctions against Iran.

Kallas maintained that although the U.S. is negotiating with Iran separately, "we also have our contacts."

"We have much larger concerns with Iran than just the nuclear," she added, citing Iran's support to Russia in its invasion of Ukraine, the detentions of E.U. citizens in Iran, as well as the country's cyber and hybrid attacks against European countries.

By the end of the summer, she said, "the European Union has to agree, all the 27, to fully lift the sanctions or put the sanctions back," against the country.

++SOUNDBITES SEPARATED BY WHITE FLASH++

++EDIT ENDS ON SOUNDBITE++

ASSOCIATED PRESS

New York - 12 June 2025

1. Alvin Bragg walking in to briefing room

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Alvin Bragg, Manhattan District Attorney:

"Yesterday, a New York State Supreme Court jury convicted Harvey Weinstein of criminal sexual act in the first degree for sexually assaulting Miriam Haley. And this morning, after the judge declared the jury could not reach a verdict on rape in the third degree, we immediately informed the court that we are ready to go forward to trial again on that charge after conferring with Jessica Mann."

++WHITE FLASH++

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Alvin Bragg, Manhattan District Attorney:

"This is a case about an immense power imbalance. Harvey Weinstein was a wealthy Hollywood gatekeeper. A titan of movies and television for decades. These hopeful young women were trying to follow their dreams in a world that he controlled."

++WHITE FLASH++

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Alvin Bragg, Manhattan District Attorney:

"Miriam Haley, Jessica Mann and Kaja Sokola each spent days on the witness stand, sharing the most traumatic moments of their lives in a room full of strangers. Their credibility and character were attacked during lengthy cross examinations. They were accused of being money hungry. They were called liars. They were even told that they in fact were the abusers. But they stood their ground. And for that I am extraordinarily grateful."

++EDIT ENDS ON SOUNDBITE++

STORYLINE:

Harvey Weinstein’s sex crimes retrial came to a disjointed end Thursday as the jury foreperson declined to deliberate and the judge declared a mistrial on a remaining rape charge, a day after a split verdict on the other charges in a case that has been seen as a bellwether of the #MeToo era.

The outcome positions the ex-studio boss for a third New York trial — prosecutors said they're ready to retry the rape count — even as he faces a new sentencing on his sexual assault conviction.

Weinstein, 73, denies all the charges and had complained to the judge before Wednesday's partial verdict that it was unfair to continue amid jury tensions.

He has been behind bars since his initial conviction in 2020, and he later also was sentenced to prison in a separate California case, which he’s appealing.

He's due back in court July 2 for discussion of retrial and sentencing dates.

His first-degree criminal sex act conviction carries the potential for up to 25 years in prison, while the unresolved third-degree rape charge is punishable by up to four years — less than he already has served.

In Wednesday's partial verdict, Weinstein was convicted of one of the top charges but acquitted of another. Both of those charges concerned accusations of forcing oral sex on women in 2006. Those verdicts still stand.

While the jury of seven women and five men was unanimous on those decisions, it got stuck on the rape charge involving another wo... [truncated]

New York - 12 June 2025

1. Cutaway of Harvey Weinstein's attorneys coming out of courthouse

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Arthur Aidala, One of Harvey Weinstein's attorneys:

"So this is not over. However, however, Mr. Weinstein started out with a 23 year prison term when we left here on March 11th of 2000, those numbers are now out the window. Of course, Mr. Weinstein's disappointed. He has maintained his innocence from the day I met him in 2019. In 2020, when I sat next to him, when the verdict came in of guilty on Mimi, he said to me, how could this happen? I'm innocent. I'm innocent. He basically said the same thing yesterday to Mr. Sabella, who sat next to him."

++SEPARATED BY BLACK++

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Arthur Aidala, One of Harvey Weinstein's attorneys:

"Today I would use the word exhaustion about Mr. Weinstein. I can tell you, for this team who I absolutely love and adore our emotional roller coaster ride over the last two months. But we all knew we were going home to our families. This was his life. This is the first death penalty case I've ever tried because Mr. Weinstein is 73 years old, and if he got convicted of everything here, there would be a substantial sentence and he would die in prison. So that's why I missed everything. And we all did, everything in our personal lives and invested everything in this case over the last three months. But for Mr. Weinstein, it is his life."

STORYLINE:

Attorney for Harvey Weinstein says his client's fight is not over after a judge declares mistrial on remaining rape charge as jury foreperson won’t deliberate.

This after Weinstein’s New York sex crimes retrial has come to a disjointed end.

The jury foreperson declined to deliberate Thursday, and the judge declared a mistrial on a remaining rape charge.

RESTRICTION SUMMARY:

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Jerusalem - 12 June 2025

1. SOUNDBITE (English) Joe Federman, Associated Press:

"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has survived an attempt to topple his government in Israel's parliament. Opposition parties had submitted legislation seeking to dissolve the parliament, but in a late night vote Netanyahu's coalition lined up behind him and defeated the measure. The vote was triggered by an ongoing controversy over Israel's military draft. Most Jewish men in Israel are required to join the army but under a long-standing agreement ultra-orthodox religious men are largely exempt from this requirement. This system has led to widespread anger in Israel's secular majority, and that anger has only grown during the ongoing war in Gaza. Hundreds of Israeli soldiers have been killed and thousands of others have been forced to do weeks and even months of reserve duty. Israel's Supreme Court has ordered Netanyahu to end this system of exemptions, but Netanyahu's governing partners, his ultra-orthodox partners in the coalition had threatened to vote against him and join the opposition in this latest vote to topple the government if he went too far. In the end he was able to persuade them to give him more time to seek some sort of compromise. So in the short-term this shores up Netanyahu's coalition, but in the longer term this issue, this controversy over sharing the burden over the military draft will continue to dog Netanyahu, especially as long as this war in Gaza rages on."

++ENDS ON SOUNDBITE++

STORYLINE:

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government survived an attempt to dissolve Israel's parliament early Thursday morning, with most of his ultra-Orthodox coalition partners joining him in voting against a bill that would have forced them to register for military service while the country is at war.

The vote was the most serious challenge to Netanyahu’s government since the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, which was the biggest security failure in Israel’s history and triggered the ongoing war in Gaza.

The bill’s failure means that no other piece of legislation to dissolve parliament, called the Knesset, can be submitted for at least six months, shoring up Netanyahu’s embattled coalition.

The ultra-Orthodox parties are furious that the government has failed to pass a law exempting their community from mandatory military service.

The issue has long divided the Jewish Israeli public, especially during the 20-month war in the Gaza Strip.

Israel's opposition had hoped that the public anger over the exemptions would help topple the government.

But just two of the 18 ultra-Orthodox members of the Knesset supported the bill.

Most ultra-Orthodox legislators agreed to vote against the bill after Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee Chairman Yuli Edelstein said that he and the ultra-Orthodox parties had reached an understanding on the basis of a new dr... [truncated]

1. Family of Yair Yaakov standing together near his picture

2. SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Meirav Tal, captivity survivor and Yair Yaakov’s partner:

"With endless heartbreak, I still cannot believe I am speaking here about the return of Yaya, my beloved partner, to his homeland, after being brutally murdered during captivity. His body was returned to Israel as part of a complex rescue operation, which allowed us to bring him to eternal rest, surrounded by the love of his family and loved ones. My Yaya, my partner, my best friend. We had a loving, flourishing, and happy home. Just the evening before, we celebrated Yaya's 59th birthday.”

3. Close up of picture of Yaakov

4. SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Meirav Tal, captivity survivor and Yair Yaakov’s partner:

“My heart is with the 53 hostages who are still rotting in Gaza. I think about them every moment, pray for their safety, and wish with all my heart that they all return home — to life, to hugs, to hope. Too many have been murdered in captivity; this must stop for them, for their loved ones, and for the State of Israel.”

5. Cutaway of camera operators

6. SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Yagil Yaakov, captivity survivor, Yair Yaakov's son:

“My father came home, but not as we dreamed. Dad was a simple man with a huge heart. He loved the land of our country, the fields, nature, and the small, simple things in life. He always taught us to appreciate what we have, to smile, to be happy, and to try to be content, even when it's hard. He was a father who was always there for us. Family was the most important thing in the world to him. All he wanted was to see us happy. Today we say goodbye to him with an aching heart. It's hard for us to think that we can no longer sit with him, talk, laugh.”

7. Wide shot of Renana Gome, mother of Yair’s children

8. SOUNDBITE (English) Renana Gome, mother of Yair’s children:

“Ask and urge the government of Israel please act now to bring everyone home, both the living and those who have died, in one agreement. This pain, this burden, felt by every Israeli no matter their views, will not end until each and every one of them is returned to their families now.”

9. Pan of family members

STORYLINE:

The family of Yair Yaakov held a press briefing on Thursday, a day after the Israeli army recovered and returned his body.

Yaakov was killed during the Oct. 7, 2023, attack and his body was taken into Gaza.

His partner and two children were also taken captive and released in a ceasefire deal early in the war.

His son, Yagil, remembered him as a man with a "huge heart."

“He loved the land of our country, the fields, nature, and the small, simple things in life. Today we say goodbye to him with an aching heart.”

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Yaakov's body along with the body of another unnamed hostage were retrieved in a “complex” operation without disclosing details.

POOL

Washington DC - 12 June 2025

1. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Tim Walz, (D) Minnesota:

"Americans deserve a sensible, humane and effective immigration policy that reduces illegal immigration while protecting fundamental rights. Meanwhile, the administration continues to make life worse for hardworking American Americans in a lot of other ways, trying to Medicaid, Social Security, Medicare, making basic household goods more expensive, and telling people they just need to do more with less. The American people deserve better. You all have the power to legislate, to investigate this administration's abuse and overreach and protect the American people. And I have to say, I'm disappointed at a crucial inflection point in our nation's history. Congress is choosing to spend its time trying to cast blame on states like Minnesota that have no hand in creating this crisis."

++SEPARATED BY WHITE FLASH++

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. JB Pritzker, (D) Illinois:

"Illinois follows the law. But let me be clear. We expect the federal government to follow the law too. We will not participate in abuses of power. We will not violate court orders. We will not ignore the Constitution. We will not defy the Supreme Court. We will not take away people's rights to peacefully protest. We also respect and expect this administration to respect the traditions and legal precedent that dictate how and when our national Guard and military are deployed."

++SEPARATED BY WHITE FLASH++

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Gov. Kathy Hochul, (D) New York:

"States like mine are doing our part, but we can't be expected to fix the broken immigration system. You know, in the very people go on cable news and rail about the border had the same ones who torpedo bipartisan legislation. Each and every time. So here's my message. If you truly care about public safety, if you truly care about the economy, if you truly care about human dignity, then sit down, negotiate. Have real reform."

++ENDS ON SOUNDBITE++

STORYLINE:

Republicans in Congress called several Democratic governors to Washington on Thursday to question them over policies limiting cooperation with federal immigration authorities.

The governors of Illinois, Minnesota and New York testified Thursday before the House Oversight Committee, which has been investigating sanctuary jurisdictions.

The hearing comes amid heightened tensions and protests over President Donald Trump's stepped-up enforcement of immigration laws.

Trump's administration recently listed Illinois, Minnesota and New York among hundreds of jurisdictions it says are defying federal immigration law.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz rejected the description of his state as a sanctuary jurisdiction but said immigration enforcement is not the role of state and local governments.
