and individuals was hit by that live fi. they've said that in the last, uh, the troops are continuing to operate in the area of the hospital and them. how unusual is this for these writings to discuss an ongoing operation in such detail of the it is unusual and what is so interesting about the statement they put out in the last couple of hours is talking about the idea that troops were instructed on the importance of operating cautiously, as well as on the measures to be taken to avoid farm to the patient civilians, medical stuff and medical equipment starting to get to the last few months whenever it is ready. so it does have been involved in operations in and around hospitals as being huge, huge discontent among the local palestinians, but also the into that screen, etc. concerns about the violation of international don't forget medical facilities, have it protected status on the international. and just in the last few minutes, how much is government information office but in gaza has released his own
7:04 am
statement talking about what they call a flagrant violation of international crimes against humanity. cooling on the international community is trying to prevent any further harm to those inside the hosp. the complex, like i've been amongst life for 7, occupied east rosen from frontier. meanwhile, another company of trucks is arriving in northern gauze, loaded with desperately needed $819.00 trucks, accounting essentials, including the rice, sugar and flour. they made their way from the rough crossing in the south of the strep to northern garza, by the central. it's allowed in road 6 trucks coming. finally arrived in the north on saturday. it was the 1st time in months and a delivery has arrived there without incident. i'll just, there was probably a couple assume has been following the latest developments from russell in southern gaza. a humanitarian talk starts off loaded with slo royce, she'll get, i'm come suit are right now heading to the another at pot until goes a strip where hundreds of thousands of palestinians are eagerly waiting for such
7:05 am
humanitarian supplies in order to a feats on, as they had been completely cut off from all humanitarian assistance off to the isabel military leadership decisions to cost of all kinds of a humanitarian, a deliveries to another part of the a robinson of this round of the conflict. no boost people have been cut off from start cheats for more than 5 months. and recently, a very, the relative amount of humanitarian supplies being dropped and also being sent by the mary time co rebuild that had been recently established and being set in the gulf coast of rhodes. and this is absolutely a part of the ongoing efforts maids in order to help palestinians to mitigate that verbatim humanitarian crisis that they have been going through since the beginning of the conflict. yet these amounts of humanitarian supplies is because it, it to be a truck in the ocean of leads of boost desperate people in order to recover from
7:06 am
the different signs of famine that they have been going through within the past few weeks. of specifically that some families recently started to flee from now the pontiff garza to the south because of hunger and the incredible rates of permanent deformation. people have been living in the past few weeks. exactly. now the german chancellor shows as well and is there any prime minister benjamin netanyahu against his plans for ground? defensive and rough are the 2 liters have been meeting in west jerusalem. sholtes has always been yahoo to protect civilians and guns up on these highlighted the need for humanitarian aid. said the world cannot stand by us palestinians, risk salvation. and the longer the war last, the higher the number of civilian casualties rises. the more desperate the situation of the paper and does have become the more this backs the question, no matter how important the goals kind of justifies,
7:07 am
that's totally be high costs or are there other ways to achieve? you'll go take the ground to assess them safe in level the very to we logic is one consideration, but there is a few minutes having logic as well. house with more than 1500000 people be protected. where they go. we've just had uh i think a very serious conversation, an important conversation among friends. you express your concern for your 2 things, one, protecting civilians and 2nd, provision of the humanitarian it. and i explained that these are concerns as well because we agree with both goals or written, recognize i, profess of european studies at stanford university. and he says, israel ministry strategy and gaza is short sighted and it doesn't take into account the humanitarian costs a given the current situation in which the new time jo government is colliding plus
7:08 am
the bible with the support of the divided. so citing as well, he probably doesn't care about the trade relations or access to the european single market. this used to be leverage and peas times, but at the moment i don't really see that there is much leverage. so all sorts can do is naming and shaming if things go in the wrong direction and it clearly goes in the wrong direction. because a military solution, a military strategy that is so short sighted stuff that it doesn't have a plan. what to do afterwards, i bought the humanitarian costs. so this is, is simply a political loss that will last much longer than any potential victory. but one can claim, like mission accomplished, leverage from the europeans is very, very limited compared with what the united states theoretically can do. but by den is under pressure because his country is divided between strong supporters of the
7:09 am
palestinian and point of view and a very strong jewish lobbying group. and it's an election year. so theoretically you to quit too much more than anyone else. practically, it goes by a back end, we both have a high cost. if you only takes one side, the punishment puts in has declared victory and russians. presidential election with pulling station is now closed and more than 2 thirds of ballots counted. heavy results show he's taken at least 87 percent of the vote and election has been seen as a full gone conclusion. the 3rd and final day of voting has seen us on a protest staged across russia. you're the shop of oliver ripples. it was the result, but didn't surprise anyone. the patient will stay rushes presidents for at least
7:10 am
another 6 years, which is due to will. i'd like to thank all of russian citizens. we are old 110 year old russian citizens who came to voters. it's very important to say this is not a legal formality. just the russian people have a source of power in this country. they were few ways russians could demonstrate that discontent and this selection and not guess arrested for it. but at noon on sunday, thousands did it silently. people came to cause the balance of the same every time at the 10s of thousands of putting stations in 11 time zones and abroad after so can represent them a good. it's clear that the president will be elected without us, but at least we will show ourselves. i came personally to show that i disagree and to show that there are many of them there. could you always be like, i guess i would like to expect change? i don't know if that will happen or not, but i believe my voice can make a difference. this action was endorsed by late opposition leader unexplained the phone the shortly before he died and optic penal colony. what else about his
7:11 am
desperation, replied. it was sad as claims nevada and he was close to being released except to go. it was not a few days before an invalid. he passed away. i was told that there was an idea to exchange him for out people in prisons in western countries. you may believe me or not, the person who was speaking to me, hadn't even finished his sentence when i already said yes, i rate. but unfortunately, what's happened has happened. there was only one condition that he would not come back to russia. he's, we do usually it was chad on as x on both his keaton violin, this process campaign was going to change the outcome of the election. like even the patient is overwhelmingly populated russia. i want to continue ation of the policy as it is now in all the country. that's why i bought this while president president page and was running against 3 of the candidates who never spoke out against him. what he called the special miniature operation and ukraine version of
7:12 am
the selection was also held in the next territories of ukraine and even crime. yet, that's just by defining that and shunning of both the territories and russia. anybody voting good participation that has the majority is something that makes itself to vote. and i, i know there are controversies of this point to these would be sold to the sound system in the future, especially the economy has proven launch the resilience despite the severe west and sanctions imposed of the ukraine. and that's likely to help present in the weeks and months ahead, which lead to reprise of securing another 6 years as president. there's little expectations that russia's domestic or foreign policies will change, unit should pop out of the ultra 0 most will voting has also been taking place and ukrainian territories under russian control, ukraine's calling those votes, illegal, and void environmental pollutants. victory was announced. your claims president,
7:13 am
brother minister lensky, a vista se shield now to mcgill, man, these days, the russian dictators imitating another election, which is clear to everyone in the walls that this figure out how this happens. so often in history is simply sick from how long it'll be and is doing everything not comfortable for as long as there is no evil, he will not commit to prolonged his personal power. well, so i'll just here as well. mcbride has moved from teeth. this election is widely regarded here in ukraine is a facile be. it wants that according to ukraine, is accompanied by a threats, intimidation and bribery in the russian control, territories of ukraine, where this pilot is being held according to ukrainian intelligence and election officials in places like for louisiana and kind of some have been going door to door with ballot boxes accompanied by on soldiers and also agents from russia's security service, the f s b apparently to explain to voters who to vote for. and also apparently
7:14 am
explaining that a boat not full vladimir putin might be considered to be anti russians as also to. busy of pressure being placed on business owners and public employees such as teachers to turn out and vote. meanwhile, ukraine's parliament has condemned this whole exercise and cools upon the international community to do the same. and there's also be in a timely reminder, as has been issued previously when russian occupies, is a on known here of how these type of ballots in the elections in these controlled areas of ukraine that any ukrainian citizens helping them do. it may well be held accountable, legally for legal action at some point in the future. run mcbride, i'll just say era keith as well russians abroad. i've also been focusing in the election and they've been able to express their opposition to president food in. i'll just, here's how the force that has been that the russian embassy in london were ex pats, most of them dissidence cost the balance. so here in west london,
7:15 am
outside the russian embassy, this has been the same throughout the day. people waiting patiently in this line, having to wait patiently this line, taking more than 3 hours sometimes before people get the chance to vote. some pizza inverts has to be overwhelming. majority of people here, certainly those we've spoken to in time to vote against the russian president. i don't support the war. i don't support the ark option and fix it to be changed. we were talking about this with my friends, and yet none of us have voters in the presidential election record. and i think it's because partly because we didn't trust it. and we still don't trust that. you know, nothing has changed, no sense. but we just decided it's time to come out as you do to be counted in and sadly locked down. no, it won't be counted, but it will signal people inside the system produce even 3 numbers. what the numbers are, this has been happening for many years. and thanks to, alex said, she put us back together. a russian embassies around the way for testers have
7:16 am
organized process. midday again is not to me and puts in that was a saying invalid where we saw the widow all the election of all the helium, not on the joined the 2 votes as the invalid. i'm just going to similar scene here in london, just across the road from the embassy. i protest it's been going on throughout the day. the organizers have, as far as i say, it's vital, it's even common vote, even if they are a dissolution by russian democracy in order to keep politically active and to make their voices heard. i suppose that i'll just say around london, start starts off right here, and i'll just here, when we come back, some authority in spain protest isn't the best conference stage and less tribute to the people of palestine. a cool front end to the genesis mana state. the the,
7:17 am
it's a stormy picture in northern saudi arabia. everyone will pick up the weather story there. the winds really feeling the storm system. they're colliding, and that's producing the spine of storms over. no other in saudi arabia. it hops into equates into iraq as well. we just had flooding in bus, ryan, southern iraq just a little while ago. and certainly we could see some more on tuesday. is hop soon to this address, mountains of iran, so that will produce a mountain snow. but as it comes eastward, it's going to introduce some showers and put her on and keep back your temperatures for 15 degrees. but ahead of it, we're pumping in quite a bit of hits in the head all it up to 27 degrees. it's looking at unsettled for that eastern side circuit, or we talked about the flooding risk for southern iraq. also, northern iraq could see the risk of flooding moles, so could pick up on months worth of rain or the span of 24 hours. wins are finally shifting, so we're going to see
7:18 am
a big dropping those temperatures in hard to down by about 10 degrees here. so you're actually below average. and there is also some relief coming for bundle in the gambia with that breeze off the see. so that's going to kick back your temperature as a tots in northern nigeria. rain in the cells and for a huge swath of south africa, heat wave conditions. on monday of the east timor, it's a story to the catholic nation, but scandals involving high profile priests. plague the church, all of us goes back. we were all abused. it's almost the country's talk. the just openly stopped by the clerics, even after one was sent to prison. 101 east investigate. east t most priest candles on out. just sierra reporting from the extra 3. when i'm hearing the facts arabic content has been removed or restricted, i'll just say it was teams across the world. bring you closer to the hosp to the
7:19 am
store. the, the welcome back here watching out. is there a quick reminder? lots of stories here. this hour is ready, forces us around and they'll ship a hospital in kansas city video uploaded online shows dozens of contents, demands, fling the compound hundreds of patients and medical stuff. and display people sheltering. another comes way of trucks is arriving in northern gauze and noted with desperately needed a 19 trucks economy essentially giving rise chavez and flower follows early at delivery on saturday was the 1st one in months to arrive in the north without, in some kind of effort to investigate victory in russia's presidential election following stations not closed on more than 2 thirds of balance counted any result.
7:20 am
so he's taken 87 percent of the folks were moving around the war on gauze and the head of the you and the agency for palestinian refugees for the plaza. really, as described as rails invasion, a will on children and the future hold on. 13000 promised to me and children have been killed, advise ready forces, and guns of or at least 23 have died from simply hung up the hydration because as well, isn't allowing enough a into the strip. many have been permanently disabled unicef estimates, but a 1000 children have looms amputated in the 1st 2 months of the war alone. and the accounting extreme psychological format from the war. unrest as more than a 1000000 children need mental health support. what's the subsidy is president and the founder of an a group called he will palestine and helps to take hundreds of injured and sick children from gaza to the united states for free care. he says 8 organizations are frustrated because they're not able to provide enough health or
7:21 am
operations in gaza or addressing the urgent needs on the ground. they're obviously we're in a acute phase of survival for the palestinian people, particularly the children. so the basic necessities are absolutely required. at this time we're talking about food. for starving people were talking about shelter for those who had their homes destroyed. or talking about medical care and access to medical services which were at one time available, but no longer available on the ground. and garza because of the collapse health system so that we're trying to address all of the urgent needs on the ground there . in addition to the long term rebuilding of the lives of these children in gaza, which will take place after the dis, acute phase is over. but right now we're just trying to address the urgent needs, which so many aid organizations are going through and on. the difficulty of doing this work to all of us face is having access. we have literally the trucks that are waiting to get in from egypt, and we're also doing our work through services that are available are supplies that are available in the local marketing and gaza. and therefore,
7:22 am
i think all of us in the 8 organizations are very frustrated by having the resources available to do this work, but not having the access. and they be able to be the availability to the people who are in dire need of this senator. in a meanwhile, the palace to be a music teacher is helping children and gaza to try to forget about the war. even if it's just for an hour or 2, mike laughed with referrals from the sounds of it. it's just the music less of that could be taking place anywhere in the world. except it isn't. and it's not. tell us the new music teacher mohammed. oh, how bush has an ego audience here in central gaza at a saint, a housing displaced, palestinians, even gifts and excited sums up and outcomes. they moved by and then many lumens per cent. it's one of our goals and the music centers to reach kids in the display centers all over the gaza strip. we want to entertain them either
7:23 am
through music or to teach them something that gets to them now sells out of this out must be of war. smiles already these days, but music can do that. sometimes positivity can be contagious. am live between india and the shop. when i have an activity i bring my 2 daughters with me to the display centers. we make activities to the children. the atmosphere is very nice and they count and wait for us to get here. whenever i come, they run towards me and asked me, why did i take so long for dina. the music lessons a suit. a welcome change from the sounds of numbness. i came to learn how to sing and play music. i love to sing. i used to hear bombing sounds and become scared. but now that i've started the music class, i can feel more comfortable. and my heart is called mohammed says
7:24 am
he'll continue going to display some incentives, giving gods as children, an opportunity to escape the reality just for a while. and that's something like level which is their, of hundreds of people in spain that held a demonstration to pay tribute to the victims of the war on gaza. the that took place and the best, the city of san sebastian, unless stage by a group of artists and activists. they say they denounce what they call israel genocidal x on the palestinian people today. ok. i think that it really is a genocide, a genocide. however, the international priest televisions might talk of more, i know dictionary as well, and for me it's not more. it's genocide the
7:25 am
all the time about as well come. the extension of the monday to the un mission in afghanistan, they've been massive 8 cox since i seized power back in 2021. but since then, millions of i've gotten this, i've been going hungry every day. the you and says women and girls of worst affected some of them. debate has moved from comp. aiden violence have been perhaps the only consistent things in the sun in the last 4 decades. remote and rude and communities have been cut off for years. as humanitarian agencies found it too dangerous to venture into donavon control and penetrate a lot has changed. the problem is now the government. and this a drive is also different. using technology to minimize costs and corruption of gone, entrepreneurs are trying to reach people in need. this truck has returned to we're going to stop. when many of those have left to say we provide identification using only the id cards. we have what we call a proof of delivery,
7:26 am
which can be in form of video and photos and documents. if there is potential fraud, you will catch that with every time you interact with the family efforts like this paid in comparison to the magnitude of the humanitarian crisis. the economy was essentially built on foreign aid, and much of it has dried up for lack of a fewer jobs and financial restrictions are full and taking a tool in the last few to know more than 2 dozen hospitals have lost their international funding. the board approved program has stopped providing health to more than $10000000.00 afghans and the us $3200000000.00 appeal has only received less than a 3rd of its funding. well, that means increased suffering for the port of i've got to fight. so unfortunately, we've had to make sweeping cuts across the country and there is not one district that hasn't been affected. and of course,
7:27 am
the most impacted are women and children. people with disabilities and the elderly because they're a catch have been so drastic. but some of guns believe it cuts might force positive change. they will only affect the largest and the biggest to entity and agencies, which we know for the last 20 years have not had the kind of results with the, the bigger amount of funding that they did receive. so i looked at it as an opportunity to bring in the efficiencies that are overdue for a long time. something corruption in the last 2 decades means basic facilities for health and education are lacking. and after the bonds band and demons go in society . although women are not allowed back in education and health, depends on the profession and go secondary education, remain kind of unofficial to say. they inherited a broken system despite trillions of dollars spent and upfront of found by donors
7:28 am
insisting they won't let a to be used as a pressure tool. they call the latest cups and financial restrictions collective punishment of the outcome people. so i'm going to drop it down to 0 cub, nope, career has thought a number of short range, ballistic missiles. south korea's military says young young 5 themselves into the waters between the korean peninsula and japan. the japanese coast guard didn't miss owls fell into the sea minutes after launching the damage has been reported. just came as more from the capital. so the timing of this is quite interesting, given that we haven't seen north korea launch a ballistic missile in more than a month now. but we are here in confirmation from japan that they believe north korea launched 3 short range, ballistic missile as well, soles, joint chiefs of staff has stopped short of putting a number on it. just saying that it detected several slide. objects presumed to be short range, ballistic missiles within a 40 minute window from 745 this morning. those flying objects flying
7:29 am
from the county, an area into waters east of the korean peninsula, traveling some 300 kilometers. now analysis is ongoing. the criticism has been swift, including from depends prime minister for myoshi shita, who strongly condemned these latest ballistic missile launches, saying that they posed a threat not only to the region but also to the international community. now in the lead up to 2 today, we did see from north korea, it's leader, king john that overseeing several military drills this month, including an image on state media of him popping out of a new take on. and this comes, of course, as a us and south korea has been engaged in an annual large scale military drill called freedom shield, which ran for 11 days through last week, including a practice thing scenarios were put on young could use is nuclear missiles, again,
7:30 am
south korea columbia, it's government says it's a spending a cx. 5 deal with the countries biggest group of for my father rebels. the defense minister said the ministry with restock operations after the good car dealt attacks on civilians and local officials in the southwest. you said the deal with the start on their central group will end on wednesday and then because the petals administration has been holding piece told, with i'm groups having to end that case of on story populations have been ordered in iceland, where volcano has erupt is of the 4th time since december officials had wound interruption was imminent. interruptions have become more frequent on the wrecking has been insulin recent years. for them on a report, the sirens blaring items blue lagoon tourist bought warning of a volt kinda corruption. police declared a state of emergency more than 500 people were forced to leave the area. i've never experienced anything like that before. i'll be honest. i wasn't scared or anything
7:31 am
. i hope everybody got out. okay. but it really was the experience that i and i'm like.
