sort of carbon credits essential, committed to being fine mental protection and has an investment climate to digital licensing. your better tomorrow the of the days of delay, the un security council approves a watered down resolution for more humanitarian 8 to gaza. but the us veto, as a russian quote, for an urgent cessation of hostilities. this resolution is a step in the right direction. it must be implemented and must be accompanied by massive pressure for an immediate supply. i repeat the media, the
2:01 am
problems because this is, i just need a life from the also coming up phone into a war. we speak to a family with a new born who are living in a cam 4 and kind of displaced people for the past 4 months. 416. soon as you evaluate wisdom teeth, can garza updates really s strikes. we've been train of destruction. bodies of those killed are left decaying inside people and we report from a veteran village in the occupied west banquet palestinians facing daily attacks and threats from his rating settlers and sold the . the un security council has passed a resolution demanding an increase in a deliveries to palestine using gaza with the world health organization say are facing the risk of starvation. the resolution asks both israel and how much to
2:02 am
provide the safe and the delivery of supplies. but it did not cool for suspension of hostilities. how much does the resolution is insufficient? that does not address the catastrophic situation created by israel. the us and russia of stain, and all other members of the council voted in favor. just yesterday, he manage area and groups released the report on the darn food security crisis in gaza. and the word famine has started to enter the vocabulary of humanitarian leaders. i've met with surgeries are being performed without anesthesia. people huddled in overcrowded you and shelters. others are sleeping in the streets . this resolution speaks to the severity of this crisis, and it calls on us all to do more. any of the us vetoed a russian coal for an urgent and sustain so sation of hostilities,
2:03 am
the russian ambassador to the un accuse the us of sabotaging the security council's decisions on gaza. was good news, be good news. so if there's a postage to me in the last few days, the security council i'm the entire world has been witness to will type, then don't hesitate to describe that shameful, cynical, and irresponsible conduct by the united states. the efforts to evade responsibility for further use of the veto resulting to various means to sabotage this occurs, the council's decision on gaza has become apparent the global media public have been left wondering. why is the votes and the you? a propos dropped repeatedly delayed. the answer is very simple. under various pre tax, the us is drawing out the negotiation process. good. with the security council resolution came off the days of delays and back room negotiations. it calls for the immediate appointment of a un humanitarian coordinator to lead the task of increasing the present flow of
2:04 am
supplies into garza. it also the month full cooperation from o involve policies. the us also asked for the removal of a clause granting to you and exclusive control of the humanitarian deliveries. instead of the appeal only for the creation of quotes, conditions for sustainable cessation of hostilities, the policy united baset to the un expressed disappointment at the security council for the delayed response to the flight of civilians. in garza, it took this concept $75.00 days to finally i thought of the succession of hostilities to opt out of the session will possibilities for the days of the general assembly fast. but if they had to that objective and tens of thousands of palestinians can, later i gave her, alexander has more front of us
2:05 am
a security council. i was hoping that this means some help to for the people of guys in the form of an increase of humanitarian aid at a very large scale. that was the point of this resolution from the very beginning of resolution that was written in sponsored by the united arab emirates. they pushed very hard for this over several days, but ultimately had to make concessions based on what the united states wanted changes in it. or else the us potentially threatened to veto it. but the bottom line is, even though not everyone got what they want it out of this resolution, it has certainly been watered down that is without question. there is still some hope that it is focused on humanitarian issues and it will at least get potentially more 8 into gaza and have some account ability for, for, for, for the international community really to get that in. so that is what the main focus was here. on this resolution,
2:06 am
so even people that did not get everything they wanted or at least glad in part that something got through. oh, in an emotional speech to the un security council, the palestinian, i invested a recount of the killing of a young palestinian go by his right of shelling on the nozzler hospital in southern garza, the 12 year old palestinian give with the most beautiful of names during yet which means during yeah, not a big it means the old or most both her parents as assistive and their brother old kid is that a is shooting over that house. she also lost her leg. and don't you know,
2:07 am
said that was she will never forget their loved ones. she has to continue living that she wouldn't become a doctor. i do have children as luck as headed to but don't you did not leave to become a doctor. or to remember all eyes the family she was killed a few days ago that in the psych in the maternity ward of an us faucet with a thought apple i zoom is in southern gaza and has more on the reaction there to the un security council resolution palestinians, see there was a notion that had been a shit today, very significant sometimes of the important role that took place in terms of
2:08 am
mitigating the aggravating human at tearing crisis. insight garza, as people are mainly right now. all depending on the humanitarian aids are provided by the united nations and which are distributed throughout the united nation 8 since is inside the territory. and others of palestinians are seeing this as us please sign that it might be within a few days of finding that we'll be down the road as the palestinians are very in very desperate need for a resolution that would bring an end for the fighting on the ground targeted by zoom out just a rough, rough off in the south of the territory, a reaction to the un security council resolution votes has also been coming in from around the world. agency aux them is one of those that's been critical of it. it's regional direct uh for the middle east and ask north africa sally, i'd be highly and colby fabian, irresponsible,
2:09 am
and obsolete callous following what she called a deliberate delays. she'll just sort of describe the vote as a dereliction of duty by the united nations to say, god, the lives of civilians and added that an immediate and permanent sci fi is the only way to deliver aid at scale and speed. a lot of the insights is an international law professor at queen's university canada. he's also a former un official who what in gods enjoys is now from all to thank you for being with us. so 1st of all, your reaction to this resolution. well, thank you. as of yet again, the security council just failed to shoulder its responsibility to maintain international peace and security. and in this case, yet again, because of the options of one permanent member united states. 10 days ago, the international community declared overwhelmingly in resolution out of the general assembly overwhelmingly called for an immediate cease fire. and
2:10 am
today the united states and israel find themselves out on a limb against the whole of the international community and all of it at the expense of the civilian population and the gaza strip. defenseless, starved, chased out of their homes, subject to scorched or tactic. and so on, it is, it is astounding that this should be allowed to happen, but make no mistake, it's very clear for all to see. and so while the international community, as part of the general assembly resolution has made it clear that there with the palestinians victims that then with the people of palestine and the gaza strip. unfortunately, the powers that be in washington and tell of leave are having it their way. what did you make of the, the speech from the you and i'm baset or i can fit in that to resolution and then her whole take on it. yeah,
2:11 am
i mean it's political gymnastics. i'd heard her say that all of this was the result of the october 7th attacks and that her mass is solely to blame. and that to my mind is absurd. there's no question of the tax of 7 october. the more horrible and terrific for the victims and some of them clearly war crimes and so on. but they did not, and i'm quoting secretary general, happen in a vacuum. israel has been in foreign, military occupation of the state of palestine for 56 years. that's over half a century and the palestinian people have a right to exercise self determination in that territory. israel is an occupying power can never be solved in united territory. and not withstanding that is there has been imposing an apartheid regime on the people that territory has been settling and colonizing that territory with the intention of never relinquishing it . and so lead aside the fact that there was a 16 year and still is a 16 year blockade, and post by the occupying power israel on the people of gas or pre dated october,
2:12 am
the 7th starving, the people out creating an open air prison and making 90 percent of the water on drink level, 60 percent of the population use population on employed and so on. and so it was bound to erupt in some form of response. and when the palestinians use non violent resistance, as they did, and in great march of return in 2018, they were met with hail of bullets, killing some hundreds of people, the subject to the united nations commission of inquiry. and when they use force and violence, including legally, when they committed, war crimes and so on. now you have overwhelming force being deployed against them. and the occupying power has been very clear about what it's doing. its own ministry of the interior is set. the goal is to empty the gaza strip of the civilian population from gaz it. and so it's ethnic cleansing. and what we see today in the security council is it yet again. another example of the united states providing
2:13 am
diplomatic cover for it all. so as an international law scholar then, uh, and from what you said is there um, evidence here for a case a against that as well. and what's the likelihood of, of, of that actually happening, given as you said, the protection that he enjoys from the us? well, that's a big question. uh there certainly as individual criminal responsibility to the photos from what the occupying power is doing. not only in guys that today not only over the past 2 months, 10 weeks, but certainly over the course of the 56 year occupation. and indiscriminate attacks on civilian populations. they used to start ation as a tool of warfare. and i should say open decorations that are genocidal and intent followed by actions and so on from these really authorities. and so the office of the prosecutor of the insurance for criminal record is an obvious place to look.
2:14 am
and although he's been sitting on his hands for some years, he has all the information he needs now to issue indictments interest, lawrence member states that i remember state honors, that that is a 2nd charge. and the 4th geneva convention has an obligation to prosecute or extradite israelis and other persons who are responsible for war crimes. and domestically, so you have options domestically possible in the end, it's all going to come down to the will of those who are responsible for bringing cases forward. interestingly, the international court of justice is now seized have a question that will be beginning to be heard in february on the legality of israel's very presence in the occupied palestinian territory. and then we shall have to wait and see what the, what the world court says about that in the coming year. good to talk to you all the insights. thanks very much. thank you. as a goes, as health ministry says 390 palestinians have been killed in israel's ministry
2:15 am
operation in the territory. in the past 2 days, at least 18 people were killed in the new site at the refugee camp on friday. local media, same 4 of them were brothers. 2 other counts were also hit and there's been heavy boom. box is east and central fine units is very ministry says it is close to taking what it calls operational control of newton dawson. i just need his honey mood is that an evacuation zone and roughly in southern garza where displaced palestinians are living in constant fear of moore is right. he strikes a small pocket of largely sand area located in the western side of rough i city. we're 1000 of displaced, palestinians have arrived within the past a few weeks seeking shelters of, from the taylor, of the ongoing war across the gaza strip. but with no food and water and medical supplies, the hardship seems to be only mounting at each passing day. for these displays,
2:16 am
palestinians a settlement and we have been forced to move for more than one location since the beginning of the human we contract. the thing these rated ministry is saying that we arrived here, but there was no guarantee i had not even a little bit. it's class, it is a safe area for us to set something that had. and so there is a ceasefire. and then when it does not say face, at any point we could turn into a was, i mean, and will be old enough to say about the rates. again. i know a lot of the model solve the situation and living conditions are very difficult. i moved 3 times before coming to this evacuation zone one for the past 15 days that i haven't had anything, no mattress, no clothes, no food, no water. i have 4 children who are sick and i have arthritis, so no one is helping, offering us anything. and we're constantly miserable. i can provide for them personally, i really need help, especially on the displays hungry thursday at a profoundly terrorized palestinians. this family is trying to set up a town,
2:17 am
but with a shattered sense of safety and security, and constantly worried about evacuating. yet one more time, honey, my mode of data west run rough. i city a send a head on. i just need a 20 countries say they support a us coalition to protect shipping in the red sea, but it's not clear exactly what they'll do the the, the weather brought to you by visit, cut off. let's get going with your weather update across the americas. thank you so much for your time. so weather alerts now for a huge was of chilly as those temperatures begin to come up. santiago, $33.00 degrees and also weather alerts and play for the southeast corner of brazil . we're going to power up some rocking storms here. over the next little bit, so as always, roaring winds and the potential to drop, some hail there, quite
2:18 am
a bit of rain running through now. so we'll see some severe storms there in the forecast on saturday and for central america. okay. not too bad, not a lot going on. most of the activity contained toward the caribbean coast of central america, but we'll get striked with some showers and storms for the bahamas and that western side of cuba over the next little bit. while we've seen a lot of rain in los angeles that has transferred over into arizona, so flood alerts in phoenix and then we've got storms really starting to fire up in texas through arkansas, pushing into kentucky as well. with that breeze, that wind coming off the gulf of mexico, that's really going to add fuel to the storage. and then we're talking about blizzard warnings for the south west of alaska, with this storm in the gulf of alaska. and up to these i think one word we could use to describe the weather here is fairly tranquil but unsettled conditions across the great lakes. on saturdays here, the weather brought to you by visit castle on counting the costs of the global race

2:27 am
of the i spent the whole nights carrying my thoughts on like this sending to avoid the rain from all of these holes, and that's why you see the water. life is hot, the baby is congested and at night she keeps a thought. this grace is not fit for animals, certainly not fit for a new form of the. this is not only send human general dentist on many thousands and hundreds of thousands of palestinians who work internally displaced our living and going through the same harsh conditions. this is in the city. i just need a bit more than 20 countries have joined a us led coalition to protect ships in the red sea. the white house is it running? intelligence enabled gemini, who the to attacked vessels in the region. you booty south of the bab and mend up straight in africa, hoss military bases of several countries including the us and china. but i so said don, has more from there on the us,
2:28 am
late efforts account to the who these and keep the red sea open for ships. and then i have to say it has a noise. a vote is national naval addition to say it was red sea, but there is a lack of clarity about the details here. so whether each of these companies are going to contribute to this question, by sending the west sauls, the war ships and the person, now all the equipment is not clear as of this moment, united states, what visuals they're seeing that each company is going to contribute to this question, the way it can, however, it's not celebrating on the details. and also there are mixed messages, confusing messages coming from the companies that have been lost that are the part of this formation. for example, across the that is where you just send additional labels to the red sea. however, bronze forces are not going to produce on that these. it's not quite a sion, but rather on the difference command easily says that these forces are going to

2:30 am
but many companies are quite reluctant to join this. it's a national quality shop. there's some said that i'll just the right people to the that's all the news now in hundreds of 5 flights is battling several places near cape town in south africa, high windsor driving the fires and authorities of ordered the evacuation of homes in the past of the flames for me, the miller has all the wisdom tapes, 7 peninsula is blanketed in smoke as 3 major fires. but the largest started on tuesday within $300.00 firefighters and civil a croft, including drones, was the valence of being deployed thursday night. strong winds caused the blaze to spread from simon's down into neighboring scarborough and another fire broke out along the main highway. the joint deep merry society.
