10:03 pm
children in that part of the territory i have been seeing within the last couple of days. a clean increase of the military strikes. so rough i especially that these really forces are expanding the military attacks to reach the southern lost areas in a con, eunice work today, only in the city, at least 16 palestinians have been killed. and the number of palestinians also have been ended were taken in terms pointed to the rep and hospital and to not to our hospital in a rough off um its ongoing button and the on the ground that he by exchange with the palm city in flight is an easy way to sewage is another day which seems to be very bloody as well for the middle court for nights were just in the last hour. he is very forces targeted, a residential building in derek by town for at least 7 palestinians have to report a cute in the air strikes that completely. uh, led to a mass destruction in the neighborhood that had been targeted by these really military and some product you've touched on that,
10:04 pm
but what are people who stayed in the north and gaza city over town to say, hollins, what are they facing? their well people generally and then other parts of the cars are really desperate. they have no food. no. what's that new sufficient amount of medicine? especially as well as restricting the movement of a delivery to the nother at part of cause. or they have been shooting the residence as a waiting for humanitarian supplies to be delivered to the north spot. the fact on the ground that battles that have been resumed again between the palestinian fighters and he's ready all me as the bottles have been taking place in central neighborhoods 1000 since the hours of today's morning, at least in kansas city. and 11 palestinians have been killed, including 7 of them had been shot, which is very sniper by a pull. so that's the situation that is completely done as people afraid to move on to send to the public streets simply because as well had deployed the military to
10:05 pm
o'clock hope to drones that had opened the fire again. is that from time to another, work different signs of, of suffering, and hardships, palestinians as to facing and struggling on daily basis to have access to food as they are right now. completely struggling to have one mean even to feed their children out of the women. again, where those people's pardon continue to isolated from having a safe, cordial to get too rough or is very full control over that the main to linking growth that link between the northern part with the southern part of the territory . and of course there was little safety if they can get to it off of itself product . thank you very much for that. that is thought of was in joining us live from alpha. it is rarely snipers have killed at least one person near all ship a hospital in northern gaza. is there any forces? have again besieged areas around the compounds and hundreds of people have tracked . and under attack,
10:06 pm
the and develop, oh the good the the, the, the had the too much. you put the, you had the, the last my name have with the highly bumble really to the have i've been with a and this who do i have them small just through the, the, the low sugar levels of gum, the little icon to you between all soft but also top, do you do over domini i just up
10:07 pm
the la hey more it's more unenrolled or how i missed the my business. um, it has to be in my name and the shop statement on, on and on the top of the shot of home and a lot of a lot of men blue the, the, the, the, the, the, the, are the,
10:08 pm
is there any, let me says one of its soldiers has been killed in gaza. the 24 year old was of as died and fighting in the south at least $225.00. is there any soldiers have been killed since the military launch described defensive in october? and it was ready cabinet. is missing right now, let's speak to mohammed jump, juwan correspondent, and tennessee event, as well as the military campaign continues. it sounds like prominence to me, nothing y'all who is under pressure from all sides. politically mohammed yeah, elizabeth knox is under increasing amounts of pressure also in what many would describe as a politically untenable situation right now uh, nets and yahoo with the prime minister in israel. well, he's facing pressure from the far right. we members of his own coalition, he's also facing pressure from the opposition. now when it comes to the right wing
10:09 pm
of his coalition, you have those far right wing ministers like the minister of national security. it's more been give you your and the minister of finance, but as well as smart rich. and they, on many occasions over the course of the past week have said publicly that they are willing to walk away from the government. that's cause the government's collapse. if that's in yahoo were to enter into an agreement regarding this potential cessation of hostilities and gaza that they were to perceive as one that was disadvantageous to israel's. so that's a lot of pressure from the right wing. members of his own coalition venue have growing pressure from the opposition. people like many gods, a former defense minister, a political rival. and that's and yeah, who also a member of the work cabinet and over the course of the last 48 hours or so, he's let it be known publicly that he would be willing to walk away from the government and essentially then cause its collapse if nothing yeah, who were to, on the one hand say that he would declared military rule in gaza after the war's end. but also if, if nets and yahoo were to not just enter into
10:10 pm
a deal that he for seems to be bad. but also if and that's and yahoo was to say that they were going to try and control gaza. so that's the kind of pressure that he's facing right now from members. the opposition as well as members of the right wing. and it's just growing on him at a time when you have very important talks right now. right now we're going into about the 2nd hour of the war cabinet meeting. and it's probably going to be contentious if it's any indication what's happened in the past. but also, it's very unclear how he's going to be navigating all of this going forward. yeah, it sounds like those divisions on what happens and guys, and militarily extend very much to the view on any future sci fi deal with what that sees 5 did with him, i should look like or yeah, that's right. and there are these red lines that have emerged now. nothing really
10:11 pm
official because a lot of this is based on leaks that are being provided to the israeli media. also anonymous sources speaking to various is rarely media outlets. but when we know that there had been talks about the framework of this potential deal, there has been a lot of opposition with regards to, to key points. the 1st is most of those involved did not want to see these really army, fully withdraw from gods. and they do not want to see an end to the war without what they perceive to be the main objective, which is the elimination of how much. but beyond that, especially from members of his right flank, you have many of them that have said they are opposed to any deal that would see the release of potentially thousands of palestinian prisoners or as these right wing members of the government called in terrorist in exchange for the remaining is really captives that are being held in gaza. and what's interesting there is that we've also heard this in some form or fashion from the prime minister as well over
10:12 pm
the course of the past few days. he has, he has vocalize his opposition to a deal that would see thousands of palestinian prisoners eventually released. and he's also continued to maintain that he wants to ensure that the israeli army continues in gaza and that the war does not come to an end until they have fully eliminated how much. so it was a bit well i'm and thank you very much for that for now. that as mohammed junction with the latest live and kind of age fonts has gone and needs to prepare for the return of the palestinian authority is governance that's according to the french foreign minister stefan decision. he's in egypt where he's been mason, the foreign minister and president fonts in egypt have held talks on achieving the seas font and gaza and deliver an issue mandatory in a on his way. any massages landed near hundreds of mourners at a funeral and southern 11 on the explosion was at a cemetery. any of the town of lita? 2 fights is from the amalgam, which is allied to his butler were killed and then his riley strike on friday as

10:14 pm
you have any government was according to some of your statements. they respect started with the cab results on and the government rates of sun. i also had the i have targeted the whole data to as a beta had inside the southern explained that the data strikes targeted the capital . so now and it's govern grids, also 9 or strikes targeted for data and live in slides. dogwood size 7 is twice targeted by the and also another 7. it was nice talking to head guy that this into one is, is try on the so side of side the so yeah, from that base it strikes will not deter them from supporting the palestinian people. and guys that stressing that they will not go unpunished. so the thing that they will add is probably a to these areas twice according to his words and his foot and response to these are the spikes, which uh, how do you need the audio code describe as an offer more o c political council, as a member of the police because of the hammer, the height,
10:15 pm

10:16 pm
but that is not the end of it. we intend to take additional strikes and additional action to continue to send a clear message that the united states will respond when our forces are attacked or people are killed. rosalyn jordan has moved from washington dc, the national security advisor dig sullivan, did appear on some of the sunday public affairs shows, in which he talked about the need not just to try to reduce the risk of an escalation in security crises across the middle east. but also about the fact that the security that the secretary of state anthony blinking is on his way to the region to deal with the war in gaza. the secretary of state is leaving on sunday in order to carry out our talks with the partners and with interlocutors in called her in egypt and saudi arabia, in israel,
10:17 pm
and in the occupied west bank. now this is of course, a complicated situation that the body to ministration is trying to manage. one point that sold and kept stressing was that the us is not working for direct confrontation with a ron, which is something that many republicans in the us congress have been calling for the us. the by the administration is trying to underscore that it's trying to reduce tensions because it wants to see ultimately and, and to the war in gaza, overturn of the captives back to israel, and to try to establish the groundwork for an independent palestinian state. it's a lot to juggle, a lot could go wrong. that's according to a lot of military observers here in washington. the as get some of the news now and security forces,

10:28 pm
scotlands. that's thanks to the front. it's taking rain across into denmark and further afield. we are expecting things to ton wintery for the baltics and pots of scandinavia on tuesday, below the so much dry a gusty winds, however, still blowing across the czech republic. well, in the way of sunshine coming in and a lot of women, that's southeast corner. so while we see temperature is coming down across from weston area, is that on monday we'll see them picking up and places like where mania as well as the sub. yes, we have a look at the 3 day for bell grade. well, lots of sunshine and temperatures. well above the average 3 to wednesday, the, this is the 1st one i saw that we see in the real time it's the victims themselves along the surface disconnect between what we are witnessing on social media versus what we're seeing on mainstream. it is always an attempt to frame
10:29 pm
a true side of them, but there is no 2 sides to this. the western media does have a western bias. understand what they are looking to get out and raise. the listening post covers how the news is covered. neil's ring far as some of the world's oldest, but they are no match for the deadly fires that increasingly rip through them. in the face of mind made deforestation an unforgiving climate change. a young indigenous leader makes all the plans to protect or village fire beneath a witness documentary on that. just the
10:30 pm
watching knowledge of the of, of me elizabeth problem and don't ha, reminder of on top stories the ssl is, are all defensive in gaza is moving for the south for at least 2 children were killed in rafa. the city housing 1600000 pal estimates has been repeatedly shelves . is there any attacks that kills more than a 120 people since saturday is where the snipers have killed at least one person near all ship a hospital in north and gaza is ready for us as have again the siege areas around the compound with hundreds of people, the tract and security forces, instead of going to have detained opposition, presidential candidates on some public out and go. and police have frontier gas. it demonstrates is condemning president lucky sounds, decision to postpone this month's election. members of a palestinian bedouin community have lived in the hills of the occupied westbank
10:31 pm
for decades. so they are being attacked repeatedly by israeli settlers. they have complained to the police, but the settlers keep coming back. child stratford visited one community, antony, and jericho. these 3 little holes in the ground meant to be graves. these ladies settlers who taught them even late flowers, they were a palestinian better when school. and i'm a call been disturbing warning. so this policy and in community occupies was spend putting your mind in. i just moved to the want to kill us. the message is clear, they wouldn't even know that i would children, it's intimidation. they want this out during the interview to um settlers wearing military uniform approach in a small off road vehicle. we stop and film us with weak film them. oh, the attacks chapel going to the found assuming community save you a tech to lead by this man scene here. um,
10:32 pm
and seemingly being protected by his ready soldiers up for you will seem to the better ones go pens lives. here are the settler outpost a couple of kilometers away. i mean, well i give her ellen as well. have she beat me? and another woman, she asked us to give you my phones. the other woman was holding her baby when her lily had faded, when he lifted for more than 50 years. a livelihood depends on these green pulses for their animals way of life. to put you in a ration is barely changed for decades. the better when we're able to her, they go down into this field close to an illegal is way the settlement of the settlement. they tell us is expanding in this direction. it would have been a couple of weeks ago, the better when say that a group of these really secular is all wearing military uniform, came and put the steel stakes in the ground. now, the line of the stakes runs around full color on which is in that direction. it's
10:33 pm
clear evidence that the settlers tried to take more land. we had companies slowly move on to the local is ready police station. he and 2 of his friends want to make full complaints. silly mountain says the secular leader, purposely run over and killed 10 of his goats and stolen carcasses. the police demanded we stopped building, raised the footage and insist if we leave. the next day we return to the village to hear what the police said. layman says, you spend 9 hours at the police station. he says it opens, felt like they were investigating. you know the legs crime he was repulsing me. john, if no matter the police only can't come. when the settlers lie complaining about the box. i filed an official complaint to protect myself. it's like we have no rights in the eyes of these rated police. it's like we don't exist in his really
10:34 pm
low so to sir, so layman's complaint to these way the police seemingly made no difference on the next morning sunday, the secularism back. how do you spell that for me? so the next time this happens when you play the game of the shots, one most of the mind carrying a rifle or call the police and they will take it with your sheep away. it's better we community living on palestinian land is being terror is by all means man, apparently immune or indifferent to these really cool international child stratford, l just a at a model of a shot in the occupied westbank to china now with firefighters and trying to contain thousands of wall files that have killed at least 64 people, strong ones, a scorching heat, have been feeling the flames and the close to involve body. so region president gabriel barge has declared a state of emergency and says the death toll will likely vive. thousands of people
10:35 pm
have been evacuated. laughter, america, editor lucy, a newman is joining us from vienna that might involve thought a so lucy, it took us through what you've been seeing and hearing since you've arrived there. we've been seeing smoke everywhere, claims blowing, smoke on areas that like the when i'm on right now, you can see that the firefighters on our dozing, the native stuff, hundreds and hundreds of, of small fires just in this area alone that this morning we're a blaze, but they, they are going to be here for at least 3 or 4 more hours. they say because underneath the surface the, the roots of the tree is main and mainly pine trees. and you can lift his trees, are still on fire. they tell me. so this is a very, very dangerous and a very fluid situation. indeed, we've also been to the areas where people have lost everything, their houses, they,
10:36 pm
they told us that they were cinders, a rain of cinders, sort of flier flow through the air and lift their homes in a matter of minutes, forcing them to flee. many people died and those who managed to get away with their lives did so with just the clothes on their back. it's very dramatic. the situation here, there are tens of thousands of people that now have nowhere to live, had been evacuated or at least up to 6000 homes, has been completely or partially destroyed. and the government has that even just hasn't even begun to figure out exactly how it's going to help them right now. the main priority is to save lives. the president says he was here this morning, right? well, we are right now in fact, and that he says that the a curfew that has been put in place from 9 p. m to 10 am in this whole region, will continue not only to allow for firefighters in the ambulances to get through
10:37 pm
because they have been traffic jams everywhere. believe it or not, this is the middle of the summer season. a lot of people were trying to get to the, to the beach with just a stone's throw from here as i run it because it may seem we're right next to the ocean. and that explains why the winds were so so strong. right now. they've died down par, truly is that there has been a risk bite in that sense, but the, both of the temperature and the winds could go up again at any moment. so it is a race against time. okay. you see lots of questions. what happens to those, you know, thousands of people who have lost a hollins. what does president bar, which is announcing a state of emergency? how will that, how know. hi, lucy, i can you still can you still hear me? hi, i got, i got you. yes, i just got you back. i'm sorry. and the communications are very dicey right now. yeah. a lot of the repeaters for the cell phones and for other communication powers have been burnt. so it's, it's really difficult. yeah. let's see what happens to the thousands of people who
10:38 pm
are being evacuated in what does president bar, which announcing the state of emergency? what does that mean for the response to the fires when it means that the government has access to emergency funds immediately, it doesn't have to go through congress. it doesn't have to do anything. it's not facilitate. certainly the portion of aid and the people who have been evacuated have been taked into shelters all around the cities here. this is a very that where i am right now. it looks like a very, very far away sort of a cultural area. but we're actually very, very near to the large urban centers and that's where the homes were burned down, as i say, thousands of homeless. so there's been a lot of people, there, lot of cities here. we know that in mind while find that useful and other very populated areas of exec they are going to need help though in the, in the middle and in the medium rather, and long term to rebuild their homes to see if they can go back to their homes,
10:39 pm
most of them have been left in center is nothing. they have nothing. so it's going to be a very, very difficult and long process. and they are certainly looking towards the government to help the see a thank you very much for that. that's all latin america editing. do see a newman joining us live from bob, buddy. so the washing is on the way in the presidential and legislative elections in el salvador. president 9, canada is expecting a land slide re election. victory as popular housing in the polls is largely attributed to his crack, donald criminal gangs on 70000 suspected gang members have been arrested since he declared the state of emergency 2 years ago. let's go to our correspondent manuel dropping to his life. whereas in the capital san salvador and many night because it is wildly popular, he is expected to win by land slide the bet said, what is on the minds of bushes as they cost me about this. that
10:40 pm
is going to be with you. and as you said, there's not a whole lot of expectation that there will be a surprise by the end of today here. and so, so in san salvador, right, a polling station where we have at the very least seen a quite a few folks that are critical that are uh, supportive, more of the opposition candidates in the selection that do have expressed their concerns. but even within those groups, there's little expectation that the outcome will be anything other than a landslide for president. now even kelley, and a lot of that has to do with the way that he's address the issue of crime. but with that, out of the way, with this large transformation that we've seen in el salvador, from one of the most dangerous places in the world, to one of the safest countries in latin america. people are hoping that the, that the 2nd term that's expected for president fulfill it will mean that the country can build on that and start tackling other very serious problems facing the country. problems like extreme poverty, we're sitting inflation. a serious step is it's when it comes to education and
10:41 pm
health care. and is that likely? do you think many, i mean, you've touched on this, but why is he so popular with the majority of people, despite his presidency, haven't been criticized as unconstitutional. right, so president, now you book a has faced criticisms from international civil rights organizations from human rights organizations all over the way that this is uh that the, the way that the president has been able to tackle crime. we're talking about thousands of gang members of these images, very sort of shocking images of prisoners being corralled through prison cells in one of the largest prisons in the world at this point, one of the largest incarceration rates in the world. so he's been the target of a lot of criticism, but the way that he's been able to accomplish this has been to a consolidation of power stack. the supreme court with more list that have allowed him to seek re election with,
10:42 pm
despite the constitutional ban against presidents seeking more than one consecutive term. when you speak to the average salvador and this is not something that seems to bother them much. you hear this more from outside sources. so the attitude that you hear from the government is where was the outrage from human rights organizations? when the games were controlling the streets, where was the outrage from civil society organizations? when the gangs were ruling the prisons? so that is that narrative very much resonates with salvador and people. that narrative very much resonates with people all over latin america that resonates with the leaders in latin america or struggling with to implement policies to current violence in those countries. so again, president able kill is not only wildly popular in el salvador, he's essentially reached rock star status as a model leader for latin america. many. thank you very much for that. that is a manuel russell are joining us live from sun south salvatore. thank you

[000:00:00;00] the social media john facebook has turned 20 over the past 2 decades. the platform owned by method has been credited with the revolution, lising, how we interact and share ideas online. but it's also raised major concerns of privacy, hate speech and misinformation, and want to hand reports mark sucker. burke was 19 years old when he started facebook as college dormitory room, now known as mehta. the company has grown into a global empire. originally a way for university students to keep in touch it quickly, expand it to the greater public. within a year it had a 1000000 users. by 2012, it had a 1000000000. today, 3000000000 people use the platform every month. a 3rd of the world's population on
10:48 pm
facebook was at the forefront of a social media revolution. the change that we share ideas, pictures, and videos online. during the spring uprisings, activists use it organized protests and spread the word about what was happening in real time. politicians use it to share their campaign messages, paying massive billions of dollars for advertising in the hopes of reaching voters . but methods phase controversies over the years. data privacy scandals have let the massive binds from regulators. i am proud to now and many say it doesn't do enough to suppress hate speech and this information. we want to hear more without delay about what facebook and other companies plan to do to take greater responsibility for what happens on their platform. is arkenberg has repeatedly been brought in to face tough questions from regulators and politicians. we didn't take
10:49 pm
a broad enough view of our responsibility and that was a big mistake. and it was my mistake. and i'm sorry, but through it all matter has been able to outlast or buy out most of its rivals, instagram and what's up or among the many surfaces now under the mental umbrella collaboration, which is really what this is focused on as to the future. mark sucker, burke said lies in the matter versus the olympic gold medalist on a virtual space. he believes to be the successor to the mobile internet center is an evolution of the business metal hopes will guarantee its continued success for another 20 years since monahan. l, just the euro, a laurie maggie to see or of connect safely dot org. that's an internet safety and security organization which advises companies including facebook on safety issues. and he's joining us live from palo alto and california. thank you very much for your time, mr. magazine, it is one of the most successful companies of all time, of course, but what's being the price of using this network critics,
10:50 pm
they use this pay twice with the data and their attention span. well sure, it does take up time and you are giving information for them that they're using for targeting advertising. no question about it. i would say the price can be if you're spending too much time with it, it could be interfering with your other activities. some people say that that, that facebook can make them sad because they're seeing other people having what they think are great lives in their lives. don't feel it's good, but you know, that could happen with or without social media that happens in the physical world at all. as well, so, you know, i think you don't think social media has been enhanced that a feeling of it's hard to say, i mean it's been a lot of research. there's been a lot of research on that. and you know, you can point to examples where social media has, we call it, compare and despair, where you see something that you wouldn't, might not have seen like my friends at
10:51 pm
a party. but then there are many examples where people have you social media to enhance their mental health in your wellbeing, including, you know, putting out thoughts out there and getting support. so it works both ways. i mean, l g, b, teach you people to be able to make connections. it may be been living in areas where they wouldn't have those connections and core data cli so you can look at it in different ways. but i think on balance, it's probably helped a lot and it's, it's had some negative impacts as well. but that's true of all technology. okay, and when we talk about data as facebook address, the privacy issues that have allowed companies to harvest use this data without the knowledge you know, to influence crush the elections referendum such as back breakfast. that's been one of the biggest criticisms, hasn't had of the network. well, sure, if you go back historically to the 2016 election, there was that scandal and i think that they have addressed many of those abuses. so if misuses of their data, they are not giving up on data that's still part of how they make their money. but
10:52 pm
they put controls in place to at least minimize the ability for 3rd parties to exploit people of data without their, their prior knowledge. and one of them and those controls are very important this year. they 2024 major election year moving hospitable as population. and 64 countries going into the polls hasn't done enough, not just, you know, make sure uses docile. won't be used to manipulate them, but also to address new challenges that are rising from artificial intelligence such as big fakes. oh yeah, i'm glad you raised that. i was gonna bring up the generative a i that's the challenge because it's becoming easy now for somebody to put a deep fake on facebook or any other platform that could for example, depict a candidate being somewhere doing something that they had never done, which could embarrass them it's, it's, it's, it's, it's fraud for false information. so they do have a team dedicated to fighting misinformation, especially when it comes to elections. but it's a slippery slope as well because they also want to avoid being accused the
10:53 pm
censorship. so they get it from both sides here in united states. they're going to hear some people complaining that are over moderating, you know, report centering and other people claiming that they're not doing enough to keep the platform faith from misinformation and hate speech, etc. so they are caught in the middle of a broader social debate. yeah, it's going on around the world. and what is the maggot that you think it is about facebook that has made is one of the most successful companies in the world. do think that, you know, on balance that, that it, that it can be a forceful good. as i was around when facebook 1st came on the scene with one of the 1st users outside of the elite college. if it were the 1st people allowed in and i was comparing it with my space, which was chaotic and, and for an attic. facebook at that point just seemed calm and reasonable and any adult, even though it really started out with college students from in high school students . but eventually we all got to go on. and it just was
10:54 pm
a place where people could make connections, whether you're to exchanging recipes, organizing demonstrations and sharing family photos. it's simply become a place that people gather in as much as people complain about facebook. they don't leave it because it where their friends are, and that's the key to facebook right now is when you've got all of your friends on facebook, you may or may not like market dr. burge, but you love your friends and family, and that's the place that they're gathering most of meghan, it's great to get to your thoughts as always, that is a larry mag at the ceo of connect safely. dot org. joining us live from palo alto, california. thank you. the indonesians, again ring out for the presidential election and 10 days younger vote as a set to play a big role in choosing mandate. as, as jessica washington reports from jakarta, youth group say it's a non president of charles to highlight issues that are inclusion to them.
