The US and Iran exchange fresh strikes as the Gulf crisis escalates. Europe Today also looks at the EU’s security role in the Horn of Africa, the bloc’s annual Rule of Law Report, Spain’s amnesty ruling, and anticipation builds ahead of the World Cup final.
Euronews’ Aadel Haleem brings us the latest from the Middle East after six consecutive days of US strikes and Iranian retaliation, as both sides abandon their June ceasefire understanding and regional tensions continue to rise.
Toby Gregory reports from the Horn of Africa, where EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas visited Ethiopia and Djibouti to strengthen the bloc’s security partnerships and support EU naval operations in the Red Sea.
Angela Skujins previews the European Commission’s annual Rule of Law Report, assessing democracy, judicial independence and media freedom across the European Union.
We also examine the Court of Justice of the European Union’s ruling backing Spain’s amnesty law, a decision that could have implications for the legal case of former Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont.
On the sporting front, Maria Tadeo reports from Madrid as Spain counts down to Sunday’s World Cup final against Argentina, before EU Sport Commissioner Glenn Micallef joins the programme to discuss the tournament, its global impact and the future of football.
