Discover unpublished and rarely seen photographs from the Battle of Berlin in 1945, brought together in an exclusive collection for history enthusiasts. More than 200 historical photographs take you through the final days of the Third Reich and reveal scenes rarely shown in documentaries. During World War II, Adolf Hitler was not merely Germany's political leader: he also intervened increasingly in military decisions, eventually exercising direct control over operations that would normally have belonged to his generals. Commanders such as Heinz Guderian, Erich von Manstein, Gerd von Rundstedt, or Erwin Rommel clashed at various points with his orders and his refusal to permit strategic withdrawals. This poses one of the great alternative scenarios of the war: what would have happened if Hitler had granted greater freedom to his professional commanders? Could Germany have altered the outcome of the conflict, or would it simply have delayed a defeat that, after a certain point, was practically inevitable? ​One of the most critical cases unfolded on the Eastern Front. Hitler repeatedly insisted on holding positions even when large formations faced the imminent danger

Whether in schools, hospitals, factories or homes, these robots are ever more present in our lives. But what will robots of the future look like? How will they help to improve our standard of living? Will they change our habits? Renaud Didier is taking on the challenge of using robotics to enable users to be anywhere, at any time… Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Introduction ▷ 01:56 - Telepresence Robots, Awabot ▷ 09:28 - CRASAR, Center for Robot-Assisted Search and Rescue ▷ 17:55 - Cobots, Akeo+ ▷ 23:57 - Exoskeleton Herkules ▷ 26:55 - Chatbots, AI ▷ 35:34 - Virtual Humans ▷ 41:10 - Robot Companions, Robosoft ▷ 50:16 - End Credits ------- ------- From new technologies to great discoveries, today, we leave for a trip in the Future.

With a common desire to revolutionize our societies, they all work on innovations that will have real consequences on our daily lives.

An undercover team hears Hamas leaders describe an apocalyptic war they believe will begin at Al-Aqsa. What they say off camera, and what unfolded on the ground, is far more revealing than official statements. From claims about Jesus returning to Jerusalem to a hadith invoking Lod, this investigation connects theology to tactics: over 4,000 rockets launched from dense neighborhoods, tunnel warfare under Gaza, and civilians trapped between evacuation warnings and militant orders. Journalists describe intimidation in Gaza, from a threatened AP bureau to expulsions and delayed reporting of misfires that killed children. Inside the Palestinian split, we hear about executions without trial and why 80% of local reporters self-censor. The story widens to ISIS in Sinai, Egyptian tunnel crackdowns, and a frontline where Assyrian Christians in Al-Qosh refuse to leave. This is a rare look at ideology, propaganda, and pressure on the press that you won’t get from podiums. Watch to see how beliefs shape battlefields, and why so many witnesses waited to speak until they were safely out.

For over three years, Sudan has been caught up in a devastating civil war. Both the Sudanese Armed Forces and their opponents, the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), have been accused of committing war crimes in their struggle for power. It's the world's worst humanitarian crisis. Millions of Sudanese have been forced to flee their homes; hundreds of thousands have lost their lives. The RSF's capture of the city of El-Fasher in the Darfur region in October 2025 marked one of the bloodiest chapters in this ongoing conflict. In just a few weeks, the militias are believed to have massacred over 60-thousand residents. A few of the survivors that managed to flee tell their stories in this documentary. They recount the atrocities: rapes, murders, bombardments, hunger and the death march to the displacement camp. Sudan's civil war would likely have ended already if both sides weren't being backed by foreign powers. The RSF has the support of the United Arab Emirates, who are thought to be providing its fighters with military assistance. Meanwhile, Egypt is supplying the Sudanese army with

Discover the technology that could transform the battlefield of the future, from drones capable of creating highly accurate 3D maps and autonomous combat aircraft to cyber warfare and advanced surveillance. The episode also investigates a lifesaving device that can return a wounded soldier’s own blood and a compact submarine designed for covert missions deep beneath the ocean.
