    abstract = "This paper tackles SemEval{\textasciitilde}2025 Task{\textasciitilde}10, ``Multilingual Characterization and Extraction of Narratives from Online News,'' focusing on the Ukraine-Russia War and Climate Change domains. Our approach covers three subtasks: (1) {\{}textbf{\{}Entity Framing{\}}{\}}, assigning protagonist-antagonist-innocent roles with a prompt-based Llama{\textasciitilde}3.1{\textasciitilde}(8B) method; (2) {\{}textbf{\{}Narrative Classification{\}}{\}}, a multi-label classification using XLM-RoBERTa-base; and (3) {\{}textbf{\{}Narrative Extraction{\}}{\}}, generating concise, text-grounded explanations via FLAN-T5. Results show a unified multilingual transformer pipeline, combined with targeted preprocessing and fine-tuning, achieves substantial gains over baselines while effectively capturing complex narrative structures despite data imbalance and varied label distributions."
