Description:

The European Union sharpens its sanctions against Russia, targeting its financial and energy sectors. Ukraine's President Zelensky calls the move "essential and timely", while the Kremlin warns it will backfire.

We also head to Japan, where voters are heading to the polls this weekend in a crucial Upper House election that could determine the Prime Minister’s political future amid rising inflation, ageing demographics, and the threat of U.S. tariffs on car exports.

Plus, we look at how cryptocurrency theft has hit a record high in 2025, with cybercriminals and even violent attackers making off with billions in digital assets.
