  • Syrians welcome easing of US sanctions, hope for country's economic recovery
    (24 May 2025)
    RESTRICTION SUMMARY:
    ++CLIENTS: PLEASE SEE UPDATED EDIT SENT AT 1600G WITH ADDITIONAL SOUNDBITE FROM INTERIOR MINISTRY BRIEFING++
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Damascus, Syria - 24 May 2025
    1. Various drone shots of Sabaa Bahrat Square and the Central Bank of Syria ++MUTE++
    2. Wide of Sabaa Bahrat square
    3. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Zeina Shahla, local resident:
    “Yesterday, when I read the news that the Caesar sanctions are actually being lifted, especially after the reports we heard in recent weeks, I honestly cried. I felt like it was still hard to believe that after all these years, we’re finally seeing real steps toward the country’s recovery.”
    4. Wide of the Central Bank of Syria building
    5. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Zeina Shahla, local resident:
    “ Today, the first step has begun. At the very least, we hope to see a country with less corruption, greater inclusiveness, more transparency, and accountability, so that we can truly benefit from the lifting of the sanctions. It’s a very historic opportunity for Syria today.”
    6. Various of street scenes in Damascus
    7. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Jassem Houweidi, local resident:
    “The sanctions have devastated the people and exhausted the Syrian population. It’s been 12, 13, even 14 years of hardship. We have truly suffered, but today our hope is in God and in those officials who are working to lift these sanctions. I believe that everyone is feeling optimistic, and I imagine that Syria will once again become the cradle of civilizations.”
    8. Wide of the Central Bank of Syria
    9. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Adeeb Abdel Kader, taxi driver:
    “The old sanctions affected us a lot. A liter of gasoline reached 25 (25,000 Syrian pounds, about $2.5). We couldn’t work. We simply couldn’t work. We used to end up arguing with the citizens, trying to explain that these were the prices. We couldn’t transport people, and they couldn’t afford to go anywhere or pay. They couldn’t move, and we couldn’t do our jobs.”
    10.Taxi
    11. Non-operational ATM
    12. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Nael Kaddah, local resident:
    “With the lifting of sanctions, including those on the Central Bank and other key banks, Syrians have now broken free from the exploitation that was happening at some money transfer and exchange offices, which used to take a very large cut from their incoming transfers. We all know that a significant portion of Syrian youth are living abroad, and they are often the sole providers for their families back home.”
    13. Various of street vendors
    14. Syrian Interior Ministry news briefing
    15. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Noureddine al-Baba, Syrian Interior Ministry spokesperson:
    “Today’s general lifting of sanctions, thanks to God Almighty and as a result of the efforts and patience of all Syrians, especially the work of the Foreign Affairs Ministry, will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the Interior Ministry, other ministries, and the entire Syrian domestic landscape.”
    16. Journalists leaving briefing room
    17. Drone shot of Damascus ++MUTE++
    STORYLINE:
    Syrians on the streets of Damascus Saturday welcomed the move by the Trump administration to ease sanctions imposed on the war-torn country.
    US President Donald Trump granted Syria sweeping exemptions from sanctions in a major first step toward fulfilling his pledge to lift a half-century of penalties on a country shattered by 14 years of civil war.
    “Yesterday, when I read the news that the Caesar sanctions are actually being lifted, especially after the reports we heard in recent weeks, I honestly cried," local resident Zeina Shahla, told The Associated Press.

I always tell folks that DC was the perfect place to have World Pride because we have so many different identity prides here in DC. From Black Pride to Trans Pride to API Pride, Latinx Pride, Military Pride, Women's Pride, Silver Pride, we have so many groups of people that have their own pride celebration. This is finally the one time that everybody's gonna be able to get resources and attention to showcase what it's like to live in DC.”

    War-weary Palestinains - mostly women and children - gathered Friday outside a charity kitchen that distributes hot meals to displaced families in Gaza City.

    “We don’t have any other option," said Um Imad Afifi, who was displaced from the northern town of Beit Hanoun.
    She said that many people didn’t receive meals because food at the kitchen, known as Tekiya, was not sufficient for the number of people in need.
    "There is nothing to eat, there is no food, there is no flour, no food, no rice, and there are none of the necessities of life. What is this life?", she said as she waited by the kitchen.
    Even the United States, a staunch ally, has voiced concerns over the hunger crisis.

  • Plume of smoke rises over Gaza as Israel continues its offensive
    (24 May 2025)
    RESTRICTION SUMMARY:
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Southern Israel, looking into Gaza Strip - 24 May 2025
    1. Smoke rising in northern Gaza +++MUTE+++
    STORYLINE:
    A large cloud of smoke spread over northern Gaza on Saturday as Israel continues its strikes and ground offensives in the enclave.
    At least 60 people were killed by Israeli strikes across Gaza in a 24-hour period, Gaza's health ministry said Friday, as Israel pressed ahead with its military offensive and let in minimal aid to the strip.
    Israel faces mounting international criticism for its offensive and pressure to let aid into Gaza amid a humanitarian crisis. Gaza has been under an Israeli blockade for nearly three months, with experts warning that many of its two million residents are at high risk of famine.
    The war began when Hamas-led militants attacked southern Israel on October 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting 251.
    Most of the hostages have since been released in ceasefire agreements or other deals. Israel has rescued eight and recovered dozens of bodies.
    Israel's offensive has killed over 53,800 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, which does not say how many of the dead were civilians or combatants.
    Israel says it has killed around 20-thousand militants, without providing evidence.
    The war has destroyed vast parts of Gaza and most of its food production capabilities. The war has displaced around 90% of the population, with hundreds of thousands of people living in tent camps and bombed-out buildings

  • Former heads of state call for action to stop the war and the Israeli offensive in Gaza
    (24 May 2025)
    RESTRICTION SUMMARY:
    ++EDIT STARTS AND ENDS ON A SOUNDBITE++
    ++SOUNDBITES ARE SEPARATED BY BLACK FRAMES++
    ++DIGITAL INTERVIEWS++
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Dublin, Ireland - 23 May 2025
    1. SOUNDBITE (English) Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland
    "We do know that the United States, Canada and the UK and France have targeted Putin expressly and some key Russian for what they've been doing in the war against Ukraine, and we feel it is important that there is no impunity for Israel. That's been part of the problem. It's had impunity from the beginning. And, you know, there has been no attempts to stop weapons supply, or very little attempt and now we're saying, really, this is so serious. The suffering is so appalling"
    ++BLACK FRAMES++
    2. SOUNDBITE (English) Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland
    "I'm finding a lot of people are suffering themselves, witnessing what's happening and being unable to do anything about it. They're suffering mental health problems. This is nothing to the suffering in Palestine itself. And, you know, it's just unconscionable that there has not been more attempt to stop the impunity, to provide sanctions, to stop arming, to take some real steps which are now beginning"
    ++BLACK FRAMES++
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Via Zoom from Bogota, Colombia - 23 May 2025
    3. SOUNDBITE (English) Juan Manuel Santos, former president of Colombia:
    ++INCLUDES A CUTAWAY++
    "President Trump has rightly chosen political dialog over military action for example on Iran but on Gaza, his Riviera Plan has emboldened Netanyahu's government to pursue a dangerous end game. We urge President Trump to change course and suspend U.S. Arms transfer to Israel now. I think that would help very much to push a solution, as Mary mentioned, a long-term solution"
    ++BLACK FRAMES++
    4. SOUNDBITE (English) Juan Manuel Santos, former president of Colombia:
    "In my case, and in the case of Northern Ireland, are examples of how non-state groups, armed groups, terrorist groups, can be disarmed as part of a political settlement. I know from my own experience that it can seem easier to wage war than to make peace. But such intangible conflicts can never be resolved by military means alone"
    ++BLACK FRAMES++
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Geneva, Switzerland - 23 May 2025
    ++VERTICAL FOOTAGE++
    5. SOUNDBITE (English) Helen Clark, former PM of New Zealand:
    "It is distressing beyond belief to see Gaza sort of systematically divided up, divided up again, divided up again. You know, completely helpless people being shuffled from one place to another, always in danger, to see the humanitarian crisis of people on the brink of starvation. And I think the frustration we have is that the world watches and there's denunciations now coming from, you know very powerful G7 countries, but nothing seems to stop the carnage"
    ++BLACK FRAMES++
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Dublin, Ireland - 23 May 2025
    6. SOUNDBITE (English) Mary Robinson, former president of Ireland:
    "The elders are slow, to use the word genocide. But we are seeing significant evidence, this blocking for so long of access to food, and then allowing a dribble of food. It's a dribble that's going in at the moment, nothing adequate. And babies are dying, elderly people are dying. People are starving with hunger that's man created. It is truly horrific. The bombardment, the constant killing that's going on. So we believe that it's courts that determine but as Juan Manuel said, we mustn't wait for that, we must stop possible genocide that's in the genocide convention.

    "The air alert started as usual, then the drones started to fly around as they constantly do. At first I just listened to their sound, then I went to sleep when it calmed down. Then I heard a boom, shattered glass flew around. My windows face both sides of the house.

    4. Various of emergency workers inside building
    5. SOUNDBITE (Ukrainian) Yurii Bondarchuk, local resident: ++PART OVERLAID BY SHOTS 6-8++
    “The neighbor who lives here on the 5th floor was in the hallway and survived. From his words, the drone hit the roof right above his flat, therefore their flat caught on fire. The firefighters put it out after some time."
    6. Emergency worker walking down stairs
    7. Woman watching outside building

    STORYLINE:
    A number of people were injured in Ukraine’s capital early on Saturday as Russia launched a massive combined drone and missile attack.
    Explosions were heard throughout Kyiv and many residents sought shelter in the underground subway stations.
    Mayor Vitalii Klitschko said drone debris fell on a shopping mall and a residential building in the Obolon district of the capital.
    He added that at least eight people had been injured, and that two of them needed hospitalisation.
    Debris of intercepted missiles and drones also fell in at least four districts of the capital, according to the acting head of the Kyiv military administration.
    Yurii Bondarchuk, local resident, described the air raid siren which "started as usual, then the drones started to fly around as they constantly do."
    "Then I heard a boom, shattered glass flew around," he said.
    As firefighters tried to extinguish the blazes, the buzzing noises of Shahed engines could be heard flying in the vicinity as air defences tried to intercept drones with machine gun fire and other weaponry.
    The nighttime Russian attack came hours after Russia and Ukraine began a major prisoner exchange, in the first phase of an exchange that was agreed on by the two sides at a meeting in Istanbul last week.

    6. SOUNDBITE (Ukrainian) Vladyslav (last name is not given due to safety reasons), medic:
    "The night was pretty bad, to put it politely, because there were constant explosions. I was in the corridor, constant shoot downs, the work of our forces (air defense forces). And, so, at the last moment, when I realized that the sound was very bad. I just laid down in the corridor and there was this bright flash and that was it. I didn't realize what was happening. The only thing was that everything was a blur. I immediately grabbed my backpack, threw a couple of respirators and gloves in there, because I didn't know where it was yet. And then somewhere in the window I saw flames. I ran out and saw what was happening here. So, the locals, who were residents, rushed to the entrance. There was a lot of smoke on the fifth floor. They were already going up there in spacers, but they were not helping. We took out as many people as we could. Then the State Emergency Service and the police worked and restricted access to the upper floors."

    STORYLINE:
    Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami has never been limited to one medium. The artist has created portraits and sculptures, luxury goods with fashion houses like Louis Vuitton, album covers and an exclusive merchandising collection with Major League Baseball.
    Now, he has filled a U.S. museum hall with portraits in every color as part of an exhibit opening Sunday at the Cleveland Museum of Art. “Takashi Murakami: Stepping on the Tail of a Rainbow,” an update of an exhibit first shown in Los Angeles, features more than 100 works ranging from paintings to sculptures.
    Curator Ed Schad said the art explores the impact of trauma on individuals and culture.
    The portraits "have historical roots and that they could actually tell you a lot about what a society is doing, how healthy a society is, what a society is responding to,” Schad said. “What society is responding to most often in this exhibition is the idea of trauma.”
    One sculpture depicts Murakami and his dog with half of their bodies in anatomical form, showing their bones and organs, while the other half is their outward appearances. The sculpture, Pom and Me, is described as Murakami's interpretation of his experience in the West through the lens of his Japanese identity.
    The art featured in the exhibit can be seen through the lens of three events in Japan’s history: the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the United States during World War II, the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, leading to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident and the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a statement from the Cleveland Museum of Art.
