Crosses are placed outside Brazil's National Congress in Brasilia in a tribute to the victims of the Brumadinho dam collapse on the fifth anniversary of the tragedy. January 25 marks five years of the rupture of the dam at the Corrego do Feijao Mine, owned by the mining company Vale. It was holding more than 11 million cubic meters (nearly three billion gallons) of mining waste when it collapsed, unleashing a brown sea of sludge. IMAGES
The EU's top foreign policy official Josep Borrell calls for an extension of the truce in the Gaza Strip, which is due to end on Tuesday. "The pause should be extended to make it sustainable and long lasting while working for a political solution," he says on Monday, at the start of a meeting of the Union for the Mediterranean in Barcelona. The pause in fighting is the first since the October 7 attack in which Hamas gunmen killed 1,200 people in Israel and took 240 hostages. Israel's response, a sustained air and ground campaign in the Gaza Strip, has killed nearly 15,000 people, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. SOUNDBITE
