🇳🇱 💍Dutch couple get married at train station in second-hand clothes
Lara Peters and Mathijs Dordregter chose sustainability as the theme of their wedding. They and their guests all wore second-hand outfits, travelled to the ceremony by bike or public transport, and the meal was vegetarian. The celebration took place in the busiest train station in the Netherlands

Max Verstappen pulled a Pete Hegseth? Come on. 👎 It was a legit question. And why do drivers have any say in journalists’ access or questions? Sports reporting plays by different rules, we know, but this is a bad look for @f1.

Max Verstappen ejected a journalist from his news conference at the Japanese Grand Prix. It's because of a row that dates back to last year's season finale in Abu Dhabi.

Some great lines from @Emilylgoodin's pool report on this event:
"A robot led her into the room, to great applause."
"The robot departed after its remarks."

Afgelopen nacht is er een explosie geweest bij een synagoge in #RotterdamBlijdorp. Gelukkig raakte er niemand gewond. De politie is een groot onderzoek gestart. Het incident roept veel vragen en emoties op. Politiechef Tolga Koklu reageert in deze video op het incident.

This is the reaction you get from most Japanese when trying just a few words. They really appreciate the effort and it goes a long way. Well done Prime Minister!

Watch the Prime Minister of Japan react to Prime Minister Carney. Shock and delight as Carney surprises her speaking Japanese. It turns out Carney lived in Japan and picked up some language. In just over 60 seconds Carney speaks 3 languages! Thanks to Carney Japan is now a much closer ally!

I confirm this system is brilliant. I have a bin about 1 min walk from my front door!

In the Netherlands, an interesting technology is being used to maintain cleanliness on the streets: large trash containers are hidden underground. This not only helps preserve the urban landscape but also prevents overflowing bins, keeping the streets neat and tidy.

It's always funny to me how the Dutch dominate speed skating and do nothing else at the Winter Olympics. Not even other skating sports. Hockey? No thanks. Figure skating? Don't think so. Just here to skate faster than everyone else.
