4:02 pm
it's refuge account has come on the intense bombing campaign. and the 7 people were killed and several others injured. the palestinians have been moaning the victims of another attack. also at the, um, is there a count on friday in which 36 people from the same family were killed? most of them women and children, and a short while ago is ready for us, is talking to the house in move in gauze as shake, read one neighborhood. at least 3 people injured in that tack to. let's go straight to round. is there as tired a boy zoom? he's on the phone from southern gaza tart. tell us about these latest attacks that have hit various positive gaus of night. is where the forces targeting areas near the news. eric comp. yes, smelly. and in fact, a is a pressing on till now with this ministry of offensive, which difference groups and also with high, intense bombardment. and can we be seeing that the main concentration is now one of the say right for if you do come specifically also in the past few hours of
4:03 pm
a night strikes up to $36.00 posted in for from the same family. and we'd be seeing also tuesday morning, how big did bodies of those family members have been bottled up on the commercial truck in order to be transferred for burial? and this is absolutely absolutely saying that palestinians have been used to since the beginning of the conflict. and also earlier today i'm the so right procedure time had been hit again where a southern palestinians are both killed while others are still wanted to see the truth. detroit now in a box, a hospice, a in the past, i'll exactly, we have more res, i own democrats or for the counselor. i agree, coach for love, have be talking to people that as be helping contracting them is quite inc. situation being completely kessick expressing the very deep sense of on safety. if you have been saying that the tax to have been tired of and times of the breakfast of them and the same time, they are also unsafe to work on the streets of the town,
4:04 pm
which is right now, very densely populated. and according to the ministry pills, thoughts with these ongoing attacks, the struggling numbers of victims will continue to boys, as there was never any potential a possibility or hope even for ceasefire to now. okay, thank you for those updates tart about doing that for us in the southern guns that i mean while many countries have voiced the concern about these rarely governments approval of plans for ground invasion of rafa. about 1500000 palestinians have sold shelter. that the city is struggling to cope with the influx of displaced families . it was home to an estimate of 275000 people before the war. the united nations has warned against any is randy, ministry offensive, and rough as the spokesman for the un secretary general says he's hopeful that the reason negotiations will lead to
4:05 pm
a lawsuit against the supply. i think the consequences of a ground operation in rough uh, in the current circumstances, will be catastrophic for the people of gaza, for the palestinians. it will be catastrophic for the humanitarian situation. it would be catastrophic all around. we very much hope that all of this can be avoided. we understand there's negotiations or still going on. and we continue to hope that we will find that the parties will find a way to a cease fire in to ensure the greatest humanitarian access to ensure the release of all the hostages held by hamas and others in gaza. and frankly, to open up a way forward for the people of palestine, the people of israel or us secretary of state anthony blinking says israel needs to present
4:06 pm
a clear unworkable plan to relocate civilians before invading rough present in 5 minutes. been very clear that given the large number of civilians in, in rafa about 1400000, many of whom is the farm ministers that have been displaced from other parts of gaza. we have to see as a clear and implementable plan not only to get siblings out of harm's way, but also to make sure that once out of his way, there appropriately cared for with shelter, with food, with medicine, with clothing. and we've not yet seen such a plan. on this writing delegation is due to visit capital to continue negotiations for the release of captives held in gaza. that is, despite prime minister benjamin netanyahu dismissing the latest cease, find a plan for post by homeless. let's talk through what, how much it says he, they want they, they describe it is a 3 stage see spot each stage would last $42.00 days. in the 1st is reading troops would withdrawal be on slide dean, right?
4:07 pm
that's the main route linking the north and south of the strip. how much as that would allow displace people to return home? how much also once a permanent cease fire to be announced before release is any caption soldiers off to that it says it will release female is where any reserve is held captive in gaza, in exchange for palestinian christmas 50 inmates for each captive. and in the final stage, how much propose is the end of israel siege and the beginning of reconstruction efforts in gaza? that's time to more one to sorry is on. is there a senior finance, glamorous? he joins us now live from paris marrow and good to see you again. so today we hit as well, plans to send a delegation to kept off of seatbar tools that are due to begin tomorrow. we think and this comes on the heels of nursing y'all, describing those how much spot proposal, which i've just outlined as the news. you know, what is israel's thinking here? do you think they all serious about negotiating?
4:08 pm
you know, they're not very serious, but they are under pressure by segment of the public, but also by the united states. uh, but they are also delusional for they are delusional about what to expect. moving forward. it seems they said that everything can be done uh, by starting people to the account. i mean, yes, to be to destroy it guys. so, but that doesn't mean that the 1st thing is outside of the product on how much has set under. and i think they have a long way to go on that. what the space the, the right place that's been going on now for a month, 4 weeks for most of the time. i thought pauses and the to citizen series fires and sustainable ceasefire immediate ceasefire or permanency as far as from us and such . so oh, i think you're gonna see more of the same uh,
4:09 pm
hold on shop. i think moving forward until her mouse believes that that is right after a number of polls is ready for something that's useful. i mean, we've had again, the americans make clear that invading rasa is the red line, at least not while the 1000000 plus refugees and living the do you think israel will cross america on this is, will this postering to put pressure on him us? you know, it would be good to take a moment and think about that. so what does that really mean? let's say is that i provided a plan. it's so then what, what, why are we for jewish? the talking about a ceasefire and investigators and captors, i'm prisoners and swap. so why do we keep on your fire? that's a warrant. it's to wind down and visit the general side. so you don't care if there is a 2 or 300000 people. that's why is that okay, it's
4:10 pm
a good then. i thought didn't destroy them. ok, today there is 1300000. so that was that's what the seal done. where i'm over a 1000000. evacuated again. again, misplaced again. sorry. again, destruction of larger products have guys up again. so how does it really work out that the american plans, some of the sounds like this, the rational model, the thing to do? it's not. it is not america simply paying to wait for his right to continue with this more. why pretending to wants to enter more. it talks about the humanitarian situation. that puts pressure on that. then you know what to continuously providing is read with arms and find them. so the projection in getting to bed window so, so if you look at cisco junior, what she talk to, i don't both sides of the, it's a spokesperson just maps, right?
4:11 pm
in a sense that we continuously see a support for that is really wor, work is some of the same time speaking directly or piece. and you might have a bunch. i mean, you talk about the pressure, how much pressure is the prime minister netanyahu really on the, from the americans. i mean, we had joe bought in public publicly express his support for senate majority needed talk stream off to the senate, the cold for new elections in israel with that of upset promise to mess and yahoo, you know, generally speaking say has in 19911992 when the bush administration put pressure under shamira government, then it did succeed in for setting and you election thinking again that liberally then at the time is tucker, being on social and since 1999 now is also a pressure by or the americans he also had to confront an action he lost the
4:12 pm
direction to buy. so i think he learned the lesson. i'm not sure he's going to be stepping down or slipping aside anytime soon. so despite the political pressure coming down in washington, and you know, when, when, when, when the white house starts putting that pressure, it comes in various forms right. suddenly, the congressional leaders should be made to test the menus to present the united states. some of the for shows a neuro, even part of india. now here, you know, people say know something that i guess. so with the white house, much pressure, that's what a lot of pressure wherever. nothing you know, believes that he's on the way to survive. this is the only way to continue the. ready war on your way can start to have a political future is up if he persists around acquisition of 64 out of 120 members of the fundamental document. this is for addition that he doesn't operate investment quote, funding reduction. this is the best way. this is more important for her then how
4:13 pm
might have support. he would only wish that he can run the clock one by do. all things are to become suppressed in january next year. my one always got to speaking to mar one, the charles, is there a senior political analyst? a bunch of more hands on the news out, including a nation and turmoil on gags room. the streets of hayes council, with the government, unable to control much of the country and find out why 12 people have been sent to prison in hong kong and what it means for the cities pro democracy and support at pain in the next, the gold swelled number one gave us his rivals a chance at the players championship the every day. hundreds of people from mister dawn on making their way to neighboring
4:14 pm
south sea dawn and such a safety. you an estimate, smooth and half a 1000000 student needs have arrived since conflict between the army and the power military rock and support forces began last year. many come to the board, a town of rank where un run transit, kansas struggling to accommodate new arrivals. conflict has killed a thousands and displaced millions more. let's go to mountain web. he is in rank in south see don malcolm. what is the situation where he was the transit can where in the transit gum, which was built nearly a year ago, it has a capacity for just over 3000 people. but there were more than 15000 people staying here at the moment. about 1500 more people arriving here in rank everyday. now with me is so i can be from the you and the refugee agency is coordinating over the
4:15 pm
humanitarian agencies working here. just how serious is this displacement crisis? this is quite a serious starting from the 1st day of the waters to dining opera. 2023. we have more than 600000. you arrive every time you have refugee. mostly they are the tell me who are so that, so somebody's coming back home, we have a daily drive, but 1500 and the starting from the sun. but we start to see a change in the trend where we start to see more if you're coming to seek safety in south to down and what kinds of conditions that people playing from. and of course, it starts with the water because of the conflict. and so then, but also after that, we know this when we talk to the people that they are the weeds, like they are going through more than one displacement. so they say they go from her tool to my they need to more than one places. so this lead 1st is to seek safety in another place that's also that you can come to they are facing in the, for the security and other charges which make them also 3 out of so of to down is
4:16 pm
the well paying enough attention and providing enough help unfortunately, we can say this is one of the somehow forgot to an emergency. it was all what's happening around the globe nowadays. it's not a, you know what we are receiving. we know that the don't that are doing their best, the human setting and thought about doing their best, the government, ourselves for them, they were still supportive. they opened the door for all of us that needs to seek asylum here and be a few g. but still, the needs are massive. as you see that we have must have number of you 30100 because you would need assistance. but our capacity and funds are very limited. and what was going to happen to the people who arrived here, they've fled from what was it relatively stable and relatively after the neighbors to one of the poorest countries on us was the future. a yeah, unfortunately, even during the day is to to assure himself. so don, is not strong, the capacity is limited, and for the 30 for the self. so then these, because the rank is drawn to the center, so they need to go through that or edit, oh,
4:17 pm
it isn't. and this is what the he went and bought. now trying to assist for that if he, if they don't need the him to the system, they are free to go wherever they want. but they won't, they haven't said a system. they need to go to that a few decals or such as months where they were received and it could be to fit the system because in the sense of that sustains very limited. thank you. so we're a cafe and the you ends refugee agency is coordinating all of these. you've on a saturday agent that you've had a terrier that is working here in rank in south suite on facts, even though. huh. thank you for that. not from web that for us in south sea, don't. the human rights groups have criticize the democratic republic of congo for reinstating the death penalty. the government says it wants to to tough people from working with the m 23 and on group operating in the east victoria gates. and we have the story in congestive people taking the news that the government is lifting
4:18 pm
a 21 year moratorium or death penalty executions. hoping to to come the lease from working with m 23 flights as long as on the mom was i'd say it's a good decision to bring back to the death penalty because it means they'll be no more treason in our country. the conflict in the d o. c has been going on for years, but in 2022 to revel groups joint forces to launch a new offensive. the rapid advance in north keyvi provence has led to what keys ations. the soldiers are collaborating with m. 23 fights as members of the army as well as politicians and business leaders have been arrested. i pay the most and no money to death penalty is acceptable because we have to stop people between our country. they do it for money and it's not good. the u. n says almost 8000000 people have been displaced in one of the world's largest humanitarian crises. human
4:19 pm
rights groups say reinstating capital punishment will not stabilize the country. and then thought your move out on the model of the government of the democratic republic of congo has just violated its international commitments to protect human rights. but at the same time, it's also violating the constitution. article. $61.00 prohibits the application of the death penalty since 2003 death sentences into d. o. c. have been committed to life imprisonment. now report suggest the government is planning public executions. the soldiers convicted of treason, victoria gates and b l. g 0 has been more sporadic street fighting and hate these capital poor to for instance, the outgoing prime minister ariel henry's office extended open on curfew to sunday . negotiations for transitional governing body is still on the way which would allow the deployment of canyon police in 18 ariel, henry resigned. but we are still facing political distress. i want to tell the
4:20 pm
political play as the given what is happening of the country where this country is of. no one will decide for us. we must take our destiny into our own hands. i want the political players to rise to the tasks and commit themselves to organizing the country. one person who has not been allowed to take part in those talks is jimmy chairs. yeah. he's one of haiti's most powerful gang leaders. he's told out is era . he's ready to escalate his fight against the countries institutions all these weeks of bonus, which have triggered the humanitarian crisis. john home and reports from santo domingo in neighboring dominican republic. i hate the of the day use of relative calm looting. this is the guatemalan and salvador and consulates being run sacked. hospitals have been to it most of the kept to it's not the police in control, but hate sees ultra violent games. this is the most visible leader, jim. each of easy nick named bobby cute,
4:21 pm
a former police officer whose coalition rules boss why you support the prince. it's a tech police stations and government buildings to successfully our prime minister audio only. now the united states and countries in the caribbean, kelly comb, trading book, a pushing for a transitional council, made up of the country's political policies to appoint a new intern, prime minister and the roadmap for elections. but should easy a token $120.00 rejected that council will clear it up because of we're not going to recognize the decisions that carrot on takes going to site to the traditional politicians that are sitting down with carol. com. since they went with the families abroad. we who stayed in hygiene have to take the decisions. it's not just people with guns who have damage to the country. the politicians too. well, some political groups of putting names fluid for the council seeing is a way outs, hates his current power of that q should easy. a says he wants revolution love.
4:22 pm
you've also now find will into another face to over throw the whole system, the system that is 5 percent of people who control 95 percent of the country's wealth is and that's no idle threat. gains control more than 80 percent pull to prints right now. once a transitional government is in place that could paved the way for a multi national police force on the ground and hate to funded by the us in canada can use president william route. so i said that he's country will lead to easy on surprisingly, projects that to it gives us the can you on, i see the presence of kenyans and hygiene will be an irony because of the same people who gave weapons to people in poor neighborhoods to rise up against the form of government, they lost control of those groups and, and now appealing to a foreign force to safe things. it does a mission that's filed in advance. it's a shame that william brutal has to go in that direction to the games and never the less scared of it. the 2 main rival gang bolts in hate,
4:23 pm
see the g 9 and the g. pet of actually come together in an alliance group, vba on some like to try and prevent this forum, police force coming into the country. they know it would challenge the patients of suffolk immensely at the games. hines, with the power that they've accrued mean that they have to be taken into account and what is a largely low to stay on the home. and i would just say to the dominican republic, well, we can speak now live to john holman. he is in santo domingo in neighboring dominican republic, still on so there's been move vine and 7 night despite that cuff you. uh, what's the situation that now of the yeah, i think that the kind of cheese power is limited in a state where as we were talking about the gangs hold the majority of the power, particularly in the capital. but there were a few days of quiet and it was interpreted as that people were just trying to
4:24 pm
figure out what was going to go on and the gangs would keeping quite well that was happening as well. but uh, well, uh, local call. you can string it from vilios has been telling us, has been happening overnight, is lou thing, especially to call dealerships you sewing up. he said that there was a salute thing yesterday of consulates, an old sort of hospitals. and they were also attacked by games on heights. he's pool now, hates his pull, has been shot and then opened and shot again as base crisis has gone on. and as they blew to an attack, the i'm facing, the pool authorities has said that the conditions all that keep it open here is very important for the country because it makes hifi into even more of a bubble. so it just, airport. so as we close the roads around the capital, a lot to be in the hands of games. and if the poor, old story is not open and there's a real chunk code on that country, i'm food and the basic goods. ordinary people need to survive at getting it. what we will start heard is that the police were trying to hit back. they were trying to
4:25 pm
prevent the lute saying by the part of the games. and it won't be as a string or in heights. he said that he saw one guy remember a guy in front of him shop by the police, so we're hearing a different that's coming out the noise violent. so a game, things escalating after a few days of relative calm in how you doing this is coming. just as the transitional counsel that we talked about in the pace apart the names of getting put forward and it's nearer to completion. and that's something that jimmy, too busy i said to us that he didn't want to have to. yeah, no, it was really interesting to hear from him out what uh, what is the latest in terms of these international efforts to, to bring about a transitional government of the so that transitional kind of so it's really stumbled on a little bit this week. the united states is hoping to be done by thursday for on saturday now, but apparently not names of slowly coming for the political lots you want to be
4:26 pm
part of it. but it is interesting that he's saying that he just rejects that out, right. so the question is, what is he going to do if that transitional counselor his name, particularly because at all, you can say that it's not the politicians that have the power on the haitian straits is this alliance between the 2 previously war and gang fractions that actually have control so how are they going to deal with that? now, one aspect of that is uh, this multi national police force led by 10. yeah. that the us is plowing $300000000.01 way or another into to try and bring security the united states for us sites as well. so i said that it's allocating $25000000.00 in terms of humanitarian assistance. and the european union has said that it's willing to give 20000000 heroes and assistance. the question is how he's not going to get into the country given the it's large me in this chunk code right now. hm. okay. i give you reporting john home in that 1st in son,
4:27 pm
so domingo in the dominican public during the 2 years of war, interested in ukraine's cultural identity has grown internationally. many was crazy media backgrounds have been offering the skills in the war efforts as an act of cultural resistance. let's see now from real mcbride. at home in cave, pablo and the read us sort through images from us. second life they have made for themselves on the front lines in the east, to both photographers and still retailers with successful commercial and freshman careers before the full scale invasion. they joined the same brigade to use their skills in will that as well for the, for the now we are feeling the crimes that have been committed in ukraine and to work with father arm a divorce, and purchase of, of our beautiful fight them themselves. and like many other ukrainian artists incense that rushes, a parent intention to destroy the culture,
4:28 pm
and the spare time is devoted to projects, the promot cultural identity, of course. and i'm cool on the dp, you go into ukrainian culture, the more interesting it becomes. and the more you want to delve into it, but also with, with, if it makes you received everything and realize your volume as a nation. and our cultural projects have become more meaningful. it helps keep you saying that work is also being used to help recruitment as the army struggles to find enough soldiers to count a recent russian success is like have div beyond the town that's now in russian hands. you trenches up being rapidly created to hold back for the responses. depending on the was progress of this could become a new defensive line for ukrainian soldiers. but in spite of such a setback, irina pub law would be at the side documenting that struggles. and knowing that some of the port rates of fellow soldiers could become the images that
4:29 pm
traditionally adult in the graves of those killed. this a, there's a testicle color. it is very difficult when someone to rise to you and say they're that. and therefore, this has been used on their grace, very difficult against the oldest unbearable burden of war. one couple seemingly finding strength in the love of a culture and of each other public broad. i'll just say a ref keith. it's time for the way that his of attend a hi. we'll see some rather large weather moving across the middle east over the next couple weeks within our cloud, sweeping across saudi arabia. further north is looking a little unsettled as well south is that band of plan. it is going to be tri woman's sunny here in doha. be getting up to such a such one celsius over the next dial to see that west. so whether vi pushing across central parts of saudi arabia, it becomes more expensive. as we go through monday, some heavy rain will call some localized flooding,

a lack of transparency and accused the prime minister of playing favoritism as well. indian chief election commissioner has warned against any violations of edits . electro rules in the run up to an during the elections, to mainly charges and muddy positive food. and the election commission faces foaming challenges the fall ends off muscle, money, misinformation, ad m. c. c. evaluations become a table essentially focus on these 4 key areas between now and the end of the elections. the election commission is focusing on how to control must have bob up, how to control money, thought, how to control the menace of misinformation, and how to control any violations against the model code of conduct rules. and let's get more in this. we can speak through survosity desktop does. she's a journalist, the why a non profit news and opinion websites. she joins a small i from new delhi. thank you so much for your time. there has been a lot of concern about how political parties are funded in india,
4:40 pm
specifically the opaque nature of donations so much so that we now have these electrical bones being banned by the supreme court. so there's a lot audience was so familiar with this concept. can you explain what electrical bonds ah, and whether binding them will make the election farrah to? that's right. so these electron bones have been declared unconstitutional by the supreme court of india. just to give us a sense to our viewers watch these really eyes on the, on demand donations that can be made by private companies to political parties. this was brought in by law, by the government, back in 2018. and now the supreme court in february has struck down this law for the fact of the matter is that in the past 5 years, there's already been a general election that has already taken place in which the ruling party, the 5 digit, the 5 d, or the b g b, which is the monita private as those funding that fi do you have a gauge over 55 percent of the electrical ones that run into over
4:41 pm
600000000 new fees? and the fact is that the remaining opposition parties have to get the guard to the meeting. i will just say lecture one. now this has been strong doubts, but generally election has already taken place along with the executive and 6 successive stage elections over the past 5 years. so this money has already been in the system and it has all the great, the finance, separate elections with their ruling. 5, you already get the most hour to face. so that's, that's why questions of transparency are being raised at the moment because the b, g, b has already gained a lot out of it, right? i understand. and if i'm also correct in thinking, even going forward, people are still finding ways around this on the day. fi, for example, breaking up launch donations into small cash gifts. and that's right. so uh, as you mentioned earlier, a list has been published off to the supreme court ordered the feedback the same day, which is the largest public bank to publish these details and the election commission,
4:42 pm
which is the election conducting autonomic for me to publish these of their details on the website because it's been for to say that it is a violation of the board and the right to information the fact that these donations are anonymous. but um, once we haven't looked at the dw files that say really companies and that had the major corporations names were missing. but why don't you look into the details and even find the fees? most of these companies are small affinities, larger companies, for instance, reliance, which is a very big company in indiana. i wasn't the largest and richest corporations in the world and especially an issue that has been figured in this list to affiliate company for a small company in the shelf companies. so we all know independent, joined us in india and looking through this, do you done a lot of a button to of factor that is from how to set a central agency, central prob agencies like the income tax department and the enforcement director. it has been on the case of many of these companies that have been the cost of doing those. so in the sense,
4:43 pm
a quick pro cool has come out in rich behalf feast action from central government agencies. and often that to the dfcs show us that they donations have increased and we know that the donation was majority of these donations hadn't gotten to the ruling body. and that's very interesting. um and i mean there's, there's also this issue been raised about the election commission is who are in charge of conducting the election. what is the concern around that to? yeah, so as you mentioned earlier, the election commission has been teasing a lot of questions by mainly because under this week the 3 member of or the it's supposed to be a 3 member body. one of the members are resigned without giving any seated reasons . and consequently, the government is the deed went on to a point to other members, and this is coming just a day before elections, well known, so mutually on the evil collections of induct when you election commission has, has been announced. and the law under which the had been announced, as you mentioned, has been challenged in the supreme court. it says, because the challenge says that the committee which appointees election
4:44 pm
commissioner is um, has override in control by the executor, which is the government of the d. because it includes team members, which is the prime minister and a union administer along with the leader of the opposition and the mental vote by majority. so there is no way that they can be any see by the leader of the opposition. because the prime minister and his who he administered by the fee have decided to they want to avoid be i'm going to be applying to that side. that is, what has happened for the use of the opposition has gone on record and said that each was not the can into confidence. and the respect to st in was only said during the night before, and that included about $200.00 all names which is not possible for him to vote school. and um, and so now we have new election permissions. we have just stepped in to the commission to conduct these elections, to the largest democracy in the country, 2 days before elections one ounce. okay, really good to hear from you and thank you for breaking that down for us sort of us,
