2. SOUNDBITE (English) Sal Mercogliano, a former merchant mariner who has powered multiple ships through the New York harbor:

"Again, prudent would have been hey leave two hours earlier. Come out in the slack or when the tide is going out. That would have been obviously the ideal time to do. But again, I don't think they ever envisioned the idea that their engine would have been engaged and propel them into the bridge like it did. So this is, I mean, you have a series of worst-case scenarios here. You had wind setting. You had about 10 mile an hour wind and you can see that from the Mexican flag that was on the stern. You could see how it was setting in. Even without the sail set, she has a big sail area. So, I mean, those masts and rigging is gonna catch a lot. You have the tide bringing you in. And then you had your engine kick in. And obviously, by the time they started realizing probably what was happening, they couldn't disengage the engine fast enough to get it off. You don't want to call the crew out of the masts because that would involve them unhooking. I mean the thing that saved all those crew members up in the masts were they were hooked in. So yeah, we had two die and a lot of injured, but if they were scrambling down the rat lines, that would have been worse, because they would have came tumbling out of there and that would've been a horrific moment there."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Sal Mercogliano, a former merchant mariner who has powered multiple ships through the New York harbor:

"The worst case scenario, if that was wooden masts, like on traditional sailing vessels, those masts are actually tied in together. So they don't stand just independently, they're actually rigged into each other. And they provide what are called stays and shrouds. They hold in place and so it's kind of a coherent structure. And if you start toppling a mast, it's almost like a domino effect. All the masts start coming down. And what you didn't have was that. What we saw was just a very, kind of, two sets of sails on top, the top sails are the ones that collapse. So we didn't have a catastrophic, and if that rig had gone in the ocean or in the river, you could have had guys strapped in drowning in the river. I mean, this could have been. This could have been a lot worse than.. I don't mean to minimize this obviously with as many two people dead and wounded. But if this wasn't steel masts and the crew harnessed in, that was it."

STORYLINE:

When a Mexican navy tall ship crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge, it was maneuvering in turbulent waters. The tide had just turned, and a fast current was heading up the East River as a 10 mph wind set in.

While such hazards are easily handled by an experienced captain, mistakes can be costly in the heavily transited New York harbor, where narrow, curvy channels, winds howling off the jagged Manhattan skyline and whirlpool-like eddies can combine to make for difficult passage.

2. Wide of Isabel Soares, daughter of historic leader Mario Soares who founded the Socialist Party, and other supporters

3. SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Isabel Soares, daughter of historic leader Mario Soares who founded the Socialist Party:

“I react with astonishment and with a lot of concern, it is the rise of the far-right in our country, something that hadn’t happened until now even if we had seen this around Europe and the United States. So I see this with a lot of apprehension, 50 years after the 25th April, I was part of those who lived under dictatorship and who fought for democracy and freedom, now we see the rise of the far-right, it is frightening.”

4. Socialist supporters

5.SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Olga Raposo, Socialist Party supporter:

“I feel ok because I did my best, I feel bad for the country that votes for these results. Not regarding AD (Democratic Alliance) that is a party that has its seat on this country, the party projected for second place makes no sense, because I'm 68 and I lived before the 25th April.”

6. Socialist Party supporter Rajib Mamun with supporters

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Rajib Mamun, Bangladeshi-Portuguese Socialist Party supporter, living in Portugal since 2013:

“When I came here in 2012, sorry, end of 2012, beginning of 2013, in that time I couldn’t realize things but after one year or two I can remember, that Portugal was more friendly to new immigrants, even to different people like Asians and others, now people are a little bit, like less tolerant about us. Even though I’m Portuguese but in many places, when I face things, I realize that things change a lot and this is very much alarming.”

8. Various of people watching exit polls

STORYLINE:

Sunday's election in Portugal was poised to deliver yet another minority government, an exit poll suggested, as the increasingly fragmented political landscape defies efforts to unite behind policies on issues such as immigration, housing and the cost of living.

The centre-right Democratic Alliance captured between 29% and 34% of the votes in the country's third general election in three years, according to the exit poll by Portugal’s Catholic University for public broadcaster Radiotelevisao Portuguesa.

The centre-left Socialist Party got between 21% and 26% while the hard-right populist party Chega (Enough) had between 20% and 24%, the poll indicated.

At the headquarters of the Socialists the atmosphere was heavy, supporters looking at one another and processing the results that bring their party down, so close to the radical-right with a possible historic result.

With that tally, the Democratic Alliance could get between 85 and 96 seats, short of the 116 needed for a majority in Portugal’s 230-seat parliament. It could form a minority government or forge partnerships with smaller parties to obtain a majority.

Most official results are expected by midnight (2300 GMT).

The Socialist headquarters was largely silent as the party faced what could be its worst result since 1987.

A second consecutive minority government in Portugal would dash hopes for an end to the worst spell of political instability in decades for the European Union country of 10.6 million people.

For the past 50 years, two parties have dominated politics, with the Social Democrats, who head the Democratic Alliance, and the Socialist Party alternating in power.

STORYLINE:

A general election in Portugal on Sunday was poised to deliver yet another minority government, an exit poll suggested, as the country's increasingly fragmented political landscape defies efforts to unite behind policies on issues such as immigration, housing and the cost of living.

The centre-right Democratic Alliance captured between 29% and 34% of the votes in the country's third general election in three years, according to the exit poll by Portugal’s Catholic University for public broadcaster Radiotelevisao Portuguesa.

The centre-left Socialist Party got between 21% and 26% while the hard-right populist party Chega (Enough) had between 20% and 24%, the poll indicated.

With that tally, the Democratic Alliance could get between 85 and 96 seats, short of the 116 needed for a majority in Portugal’s 230-seat parliament. It could form a minority government or forge partnerships with smaller parties to obtain a majority.

Most official results are expected by midnight (2300 GMT).

Cheers and applause broke out at the Democratic Alliance campaign headquarters when the exit poll was broadcast. The Socialist headquarters was largely silent as the party faced what could be its worst result since 1987.

Chega’s possible count was a surprise, potentially putting it close to a level footing with the Socialist Party. Chega competed in its first election six years ago, when it won one seat. Sunday's exit poll gave it as many as 61, up from 50 in last year’s election as it fed off discontentment with the traditional main parties.

A second consecutive minority government in Portugal would dash hopes for an end to the worst spell of political instability in decades for the European Union country of 10.6 million people.

For the past 50 years, two parties have dominated politics, with the Social Democrats, who head the Democratic Alliance, and the Socialist Party alternating in power.

But public frustration with their record in government has fuelled the growth of new alternatives in recent years. That has denied the bigger parties enough seats in parliament for a majority needed to ensure that they serve a full four-year term.

STORYLINE:

Romanians were celebrating, Sunday, after the pro-European Union candidate in the country's critical presidential runoff won the closely watched race against a hard-right nationalist, nearly complete electoral data shows, in a tense election rerun that many viewed as a geopolitical choice between East or West.

The race pitted front-runner George Simion, the 38-year-old leader of the hard-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians, or AUR, against incumbent Bucharest Mayor Nicusor Dan.

It was held months after the cancellation of the previous election plunged Romania into its worst political crisis in decades.

After 10.5 million of 11.6 million votes had been counted, Dan was ahead with 54.32%, while votes for Simion stood at 45.68%, according to official data.

Ruxandra Gheorghiu, out celebrating on the streets, said: ”To be honest, I think I never felt this happy in a long time. I was so scared that our European course is near the end."

Lisbon, Portugal - 18 May 2025

STORYLINE:

An exit poll suggested that Sunday's election in Portugal was poised to deliver yet another minority government, as the increasingly fragmented political landscape defies efforts to unite behind policies on pressing national issues such as immigration, housing and the cost of living.

The Democratic Alliance captured between 29% and 34% of the votes in the country's third general election in three years, according to an exit poll by Portugal’s Catholic University for public broadcaster Radiotelevisao Portuguesa.

STORYLINE:

Residents in Kentucky and Missouri are digging through tornado-stricken neighborhoods and clearing debris after severe storms swept through parts of the Midwest and South and left more than two dozen people dead.

Kentucky was hardest hit in the storm system that began Friday. A devastating tornado damaged hundreds of homes, tossed vehicles and left many people homeless.

By Sunday, state officials said at least 19 people in Kentucky had died, most of them in southeastern Laurel County–which includes the city of London. Several more people were critically injured with state leaders saying the death toll could still rise.

In St. Louis, city officials say five people died and thousands of homes were damaged.

Bucharest, Romania - 18 May 2025

1 SOUNDBITE (Romanian) Nicusor Dan, presidential candidate:

"Elections are not about politicians. Elections are about communities. And in today's elections, a community of Romanians who want a profound change in Romania won. A community that wants the functioning of state institutions. A community that wants to reduce corruption. A community that wants a prosperous economic environment for Romanians. A community that wants a society of dialogue and not a society of hate."

4. SOUNDBITE (Romanian) George Simion, AUR party leader:

“I'm the new president of Romania and I ask you to allow all Romanians who are now queuing democratically to cast their ballots. We are clearly the winners of these elections and we claim victory in the name of the Romanian people.”

5. Media

6. SImion leaving

STORYLINE:

The two candidates in Romania’s presidential election runoff are neck and neck, early preliminary electoral data shows, in a high-stakes vote between a hard-right nationalist and a pro-European Union centrist that determine the geopolitical direction of the NATO member country.

The race pitted front-runner George Simion, the 38-year-old leader of the hard-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians, or AUR, against incumbent Bucharest Mayor Nicusor Dan.

It was held months after the cancellation of the previous election plunged Romania into its worst political crisis in decades.

After 2.8 million votes had been counted, Simion was ahead by a whisker with 50.09%, while votes for Dan stood at 49.91%, according to official data.

After polls closed Sunday, Dan told the media that “elections are not about politicians” but about communities and that in Sunday's vote, “a community of Romanians has won, a community that wants a profound change in Romania.”

Meanwhile, Simion predicted a significant victory over his opponent, which he called a “victory of the Romanian people.”

Standing on the steps of Romania’s colossal Communist-era parliament building after polls closed, he said "we are clearly the winners of these elections."

When voting closed at 9 p.m. (1800 GMT), 11.6 million people — or about 64% of eligible voters — had cast ballots, according to official electoral data. About 1.64 million Romanians abroad, who have been able to vote since Friday at specially set-up polling stations, participated in the vote.

Romania’s political landscape was upended last year when a top court voided the previous election in which far-right outsider Calin Georgescu topped first-round polls, following allegations of electoral violations and Russian interference, which Moscow denied.
