#UK - Brexit family divide: BBC News

Published on 29 Jun 2016
The Hannons are just one of many families in the UK dealing with the fallout from the EU referendum. They are seven people divided by the outcome they backed last week. Connor, 20, is the middle child of five and like most of his siblings he wanted to remain. But his parents Anne and Mike disagreed and the debate goes on.
According to YouGov data, 75% of young people aged 18-24 voted to remain, but only 39% of those over 65 did the same. We joined the Hannons in their home in Salford to find out why their age seems to divide them.

#Ukraine - Opera Singer Shot Dead in Donbas: Vasyl Slipak quit French opera to fight for Ukraine: UKRAINE TODAY

Published on 29 Jun 2016
Famous Ukrainian opera singer Vasyl Slipak died in the eastern Ukraine. Local media report Slipak was killed on June 29th in a warzone, shot by a sniper using a full-bore rifle near the village of Luhanske at about 6 am.

He returned back in Ukraine two years ago. Having live in France for nearly two decades, Slipak became at first the voice of Ukrainian local Maidan in Paris. 2,500 km from home, he sang the national anthem of Ukraine symbolizing the unbreakable spirit of his compatriots and trying to show his homeland is suffering from invasion.

This is already a charitable concert, Slipak performing in a T-shirt with a trident and a specific Ukrainian patriot's haircut. The money he gets for singing opera artist gives to the children of the killed soldiers and finances the army.

In 2015 Vasyl Slipak told in the interview he has no moral right to remain in France, since Ukraine has to struggle with outer enemies. Before departing to the frontline he was awarded with a medal.

Vasyl Slipak was shot close to the occupied town of Debaltseve, while the Russian-backed separatist forces started advancing using the heavy weapon and mortars. The blood brothers of Vasyl' Slipak say his songs about courageous warriors have become his final prophecy

#Turkey - targeted: Islamic State Group blamed for Istanbul attack: FRANCE 24 English

Published on 29 Jun 2016
Once again, Turkey's a target for blind terror. At least 41 killed at Istanbul's Atatürk Airport in a carefully-staged attack blamed on Isis. If that's confirmed, it's the fourth major bombing attributed to Islamic State militants in the past year. Why Turkey? Why now? The attack may be long-planned but they come the same week the government restored ties with Israel, apologized for downing a Russian fighter jet, and is now reaching out to Egypt and possibly Syria.

WTI Crude Oil and Natural Gas Forecast June 30, 2016: DailyForex

Published on 29 Jun 2016
The WTI Crude Oil markets rallied during the course of the session on Wednesday, testing the $50 level. By doing so, it looks as if the market is going to try to break out to the upside but we didn’t close above it. If we can break out above the most recent high, the market then will continue to go much higher. Ultimately, at this point in time it looks quite a bit like we are consolidating, so I feel that we very well could pull back towards the 50 day exponential moving average, which is shown as red on this chart. The market does look as if there is quite a bit of bullish pressure underneath though, so ultimately we very well could breakout. With this, I think that the short-term pullback could very well end up being more of a buying opportunity than anything else.
