for us. this being reaction under i understand us reaction to these really operation at all to find and in roughly tell us more as well. there's been a lot of us reaction in the last 12 hours, not only to israel's rate on as ship fund, but also about the potential round invasion into that fox. the us national security advisor jake sullivan, expressing a lot of concern is saying that it is really invasion instead of us would be quote, a mistake just because of how many civilians are thinking refuge bear. you're talking about more than a 1000000 and a half palestinians. and the americans say they haven't seen any is rarely plans for these military move that these really say is immune. and now when it comes to the attack on as ship while the americans are saying, but perhaps these really need to re strategize, need to re thread, rethink exactly how they are maneuvering and operating in this war. remember months
4:07 pm
ago, these rarely army had said that they had full operational control of the northern part of guns. but that is seemingly untrue, given just how much military activity has been going on there since they made that announcement. nearing the end of 2023. so the american say there is widespread concern across the board, especially when it comes to firefights and hospitals and this potential invasion into that. and what is the, is really a government saying about the intelligence chief visit to doha, as part of these ongoing efforts to reach a sci fi or what we do know that his roles were calvin. it will convene this evening to discuss the matter about the head of israel's negotiating team that david barney of the head of israel's most sub. that's the external security services is back in israel after meeting with negotiators in don't. huh. no,
4:08 pm
not him. is really sources meeting to is really media who are familiar with the matter. have said that the negotiations are not exactly heading in the right direction, giving more of a pessimistic outlook on the entire situation. meaning that they are not yet nearing the deal. but remember, there have been sticking points and non negotiable from both side with that. how about wanting to see a total end to the. busy and these rallies have been saying, even if there is a pause in the fighting that the war will continue. so negotiators are still meeting in doha, even though these really delegation is back in israel. thank you for that. have the son who's by for his day now q 5, east jerusalem. and as hum to mentioned in direct talks between each route and her mouth continuing here in doha, they're discussing him off his latest proposal for a present cap to exchange. and to end of the war guthrie media to say they remain hopeful and file has relate to some of the, a slit term used by the spokes mount of the foreign ministry. here was that they
4:09 pm
are cautiously optimistic about the results of the talks. but he said that it is very good that the talk stopped taking place in doha. that to me is cutoff can monitor these talks better, can facilitate them better. and he talked about the technical team from, from both sides working on the details. these are indicted talks, we have to notify and the is really is don't tell these readers here. they don't have many prerogative for decision making and so on. so that's why the chief of the most, are they but they, it has already left with for consultations with is that i need to ship. and basically the categories are saying that this is going to take time. i don't think we're out at the moment now where we can say that you are close to the, to a deal. we are, as i said, we are cautious. we have the mistake because the ducks have it at the end and that is a good thing. and we hope that that to continue, then you help to build upon that and becoming an days, but it's still too early to to announce any any successes. so we remain,
4:10 pm
as i said, we made hopefully the for the ministry spokes man or so made it clear the top to condense. these are the actions during the last couple of days, particularly the, the attack on the chief a hospital. he said that those talks have to step on the international committee, has to do something to prevent these ladies from continuing to commit those violations against medical facilities in causal and also against civility. as he said, that's a cup of has already sent that 86 cargo planes. uh, with the humanitarian a to goes entities goes to contribute, logistically and financially to any efforts to bring more aid at 2005, i'm just gonna go and i'll just sarah journalist, it's my logo has now been released by is really forces off to being held for 12 hours he described his time held captive by the certainly media chair. like in

4:12 pm
you had that it may then was it not? and the photos name and a little for let be looking at be a and i did ask you what better, what was that, what would be anybody to have it? so i'm a company at a deal not fully at all, but that it's not showing that i have yet had to do an assignment for that because i know have to go to the bottom of a heads up. i'm gonna have to look as about 9 o'clock job to keep them above a block in a way and just i'm in middle block and picking. i know i need that in. see an outside to have the horseman because i don't want them. they have the need, the scape, what kind of commit george eh, heavy on it, but i'm at bonham alignment at that level and a little for about, well let's go to collect the connecticut. should it could be difficult. how much a month or not it's funny for that kind of me been answered if you don't want. and now these really military has launched and not a series of res, across the occupied westbank,
4:13 pm
the wine and smoke out over nice eyes on as vehicles and photos as was used to storm the ballasa, the campus of novice. there were also raids in hebron and got always ready to have search homes and patrol streets. palestinian during this war last hunting is among those of rest, advise ready forces, nor a con has more on the race from us a spring to live. what happens in the early hours of choose a morning, ruta house, and then she's a policy and jonas, very well known in the occupied westbank, writing about these right of your patients and human rights issues. so the is rated, sold is not to that to around 2 30 in the morning. she was with her 9 month old daughter. she's still nursing her. they then said that to be taking her away to administrative detention. her husband took a daughter, they also confiscate his head laptop and her phone. so he says he doesn't know
4:14 pm
where she is or when she'll be back. but i just wanted to bring to light some the statistics. there are 35 posting and journalists behind phones at the moment. 22 have no criminal convictions. that being held in arbitrary detention as compared to last year between january the 1st on october, the 6th only 8 policy. and during this one arrested. so that has been the big optic . now. earlier i spoke to oma nestled, he's the deputy director of the policy, and john was sent because here's what he had say. i took it and i believe that the main objective behind the tense. and then this intense campaign counted out by this very proficient process as of today, 62000 and this had been arrested. this is where many polls the number come before october 7. the main objective is to detect or done notice. and to steve them away from cutting the voices of the palestinians. and these ladies are adamant to
4:15 pm
continue to maintain the narrative and to muzzle any other voices. another objective is that did threatens this strategy. adopted by it is a commission process is until and timmy date that was done is not only the done that is detained, but also to intimidate any other dentist by way of creating a, the image that any one who tries to speak will be then x was the targets of this is the strategy i'm policies adopted by this lady, a probation forces. all of this fold within the media, as in the side again, is dependent senior journalists as oma. and that's all explained is becoming increasingly more dangerous for the policy in tennessee. arrested and move on to the against them in the occupied west spine. and of course so many more of being killed in gaza. north on al jazeera ramallah, the occupied westbank,
4:16 pm
the concern to out of well use. now and legislators in hong kong have passed a new national security law with tougher penalties for treason, espionage, and disclosing state secrets. chief executive john lee says new powers a needed to protect hong kong status. critics say they're too vague and will be used to for the finance dissent. jessica washington bayport's in hong kong legislators meet to discuss propose national security legislation known as article 23. while you talk on launch, it is home combs, constitutional responsibility to enact the article 23 legislation under the basic law to safeguard national security. i believe everyone here the legislative council bill on the be able to take part in this historical mission. we go and talk at some deep, it covers acts of treason, sedition,
4:17 pm
and more includes provisions which allow for the last to detain suspects for up to 2 weeks. we don't charge compared to 2 days. now. it would also give police the power to deny some suspects access to lawyer and create making is ones to cancel the passports, a so called eps going to is it makes the national security risk a much more comprehensive. so it includes a whole raft of things that were not crimes before or that were colonial crimes, but they've updated the crime is the increased the amount of penalty some human rights organizations and foreign governments have criticized the vagueness of article 23 and said it may be used to silence critics. a previous attempt to post the bill in 2003. so more than half a 1000000 people protest before it was withdrawn. now there are no indications of
4:18 pm
descent. the same punk with demonstrations assembled more than 20 years ago is no hosting a flo exhibition. this situation has changed a lot. you also people here actually it will ask them they did not tell you because they would not obviously you. but as i said, there are no demonstrations, no protests, no public assembly. it's very quiet here, really quiet, 2020 paging and post and national security, you know, in home. com for months of pro democracy protests. since then opposition politicians have been jailed. and many news outlets and civil society organizations shut down. * china as president, she just being has repeatedly stated his commitment to the one country to assistance policy, which is intended to allow home calm to be governed with a high degree of autonomy in the legislative council. building legislative say the change is necessary to protect hong kong status as an international hub. one
4:19 pm
politician like into the low to a front case gutting hong kong as people from danger. jessica washington to 0. 1 is getting more from laura westbrook, who's in hong kong for his story to tell us more about what changes now for hong kong with this feels faster. yeah. how comes lead to john lee has a dress little makers and a rad visit to the legislative council. which is hong kong was many parliament when this law was law was passed and he called an historic moment. he said that he was proud that hong kong had finally for spelled it's constitutional g, c, 2 and not its own national security legislation. he says that this lo will sits alongside the aging, impose national security little in 2020. that came off to months of an anti government protests in 2019. and the government says that it is necessary to pass
4:20 pm
this law because of those protests in. but i think what has taken people by surprise here is the speed at which this law has passed. the government publish the law and much the 8th. it was debated by make is the 6 days they went through a 181 closes. how math and sessions they had special needs things, including on tuesday, when it was passed unanimously by old or may. cuz now let's co is dominated by the probate and comp. since the aging of a whole ton comes electrical system. the only patriots those deeds patriots could run for government. and this is all quite different to what happened in 2003 when this bill was last proposed the backs and about half a 1000000 people took to the streets to protest against this bill today. so there
4:21 pm
was a police presence outside the legislative council, but that was that with no protest. yeah. and so what you see today, what, what's been the reaction then to the legislation from, you know, the next 5 community and business leaders and local to well, the government set, the in its public consultation out of set seems 1000 submissions about 98 percent. was supportive of this legislation and we have had some reaction tonight. so a couple of a business tycoon, so will say, came out in support of this little but one, the human rights lawyer i spoke to said that's the haste he what he called the extreme haste, which this little was past caused him some concern. he said that that perhaps did not allow for proper scrutiny. and we've also had some the gentlest association in hong kong, the whole generalist association. they've raised concerns that this could impact
4:22 pm
journalists, why king here? hands on what they decide to report on, on some legal aspects of also called i have also said that it might have a chilling impact in hong kong. it might impact diplomatic meetings or even meetings between local journalists and foreign media organizations. and then the business community summit said some foreign business groups have expressed concern about some times they said were vague, such as state secrets and for an interference. they said that because of the quite heavy penalties that it could make businesses out on the side of caution and stats some business. so some investment that could have come to hong kong might go elsewhere. that could impact tompkins states as, as an international city government though, says it's necessary and it will bring stability. thank you very much for that. nora nora westbrook lived there in hong now the time it is something which affects the
4:23 pm
soul and the will meet you. it onto a organization is describing the state of the climate as off the charts following the odyssey on wreckage. its latest global report shows that breakers last year where again broken 4 temperatures, ocean heat and glacial retreat is i've seen you and it's urologist evident fox explained since the 1980s each decade has been warmer than the previous one. with the past 9 years being the warmest since records began. now 2023 has officially been confirmed as the hottest on the record by a huge margin as the average annual global temperature, a priced 1.5 degrees celsius above pre industrial levels. and i symbolic because it means the world is edging ever closer to the limits set in the powers agreement. the shift from the cooling, natalie, india, to the woman el nino 5 the middle of last year, feel the hate and 2024 is expected to be even hotter. and of course,
4:24 pm
that affects our oceans. sea surface temperatures were exceptionally high for much of 2023, and in particular in the north atlantic or august. so a new record for some time which is beating the previous high setting 2016. in addition, nearly a 3rd of a global ocean was gripped by marine, his wife every day last year. well, the 90 percent of our c's experience, he why conditions at some point in 2023 class, he has suffered. the logic smells on record since 1950, and the global sea level reached a 30 year record high until it takes the ice was by far the lowest on record with a loss the size of france and germany combined. the number of people across the world who are acutely food insecure, has more than doubled from a 149000000 before the type of 19 pandemic to 333000000. how the report
4:25 pm
size, although weather and climate x rays may not be the root cause, they are aggravating factors, and continued to force people from their homes. joining us now analogy 0 is chris q 8, who's director of the crime of climate as the world major logical organization. thank you very much for being with us on. i'll just there mr. hewett. so we heard the record heat record, sea levels and record ocean temperatures. the holy grail set of paris in 2015 was to ensure that temperatures do not rise more than 1.5 degrees celsius above the pre industrial levels. 2023. so i was pretty much at $1.00 degrees celsius. is it not time to have knowledge that we will not achieve the target and should be any for something more realistic? oh, yes i see. so we all know yes at that low of $1.00, the limits we oxide. so she's saying we're getting closer with each passing decade
4:26 pm
as will correspond to just set them to 60 the recent years and 2023 being a 1.45 degrees above pre industrial level. was the power supreme and refer to longer term than one year. so 20 will set to use the site. well, individual we is getting close to 1.5, we've not yet got to the, the long term. so for example, the most recent decade was about $1.00 degrees above pre industrial level. so we're not that $1.00 yet, so we come to probably come up that low power limits, but we are eager to get any filter getting close to the page. so what are the expectations and for 2024. and what does that mean in terms of extreme climate impacts? yes, so as your corresponding said, we, we've currently in the new states and so this is on the back of a rob alone the landing. yep. we have about 3 years of learning and you would finish this time last year. and typically that in your attempts to suppress the global average temperature slightly my brother to be true votes in the pacific. so
4:27 pm
let me move tony, or we start to see, boom level, it's us in the pacific. and typically that's for the last last year. typically we then see the main effects of that to year offices. so in this case would be 2024. so we're on to supply to 20. 24. would indeed be another relatively more immediate . whether or not could be reco breaking. we'll have to wait and see, but we do anticipate 2024. it's a continued to be will right? the ve, i mean the thing is that since the 1980s each decade has been warm and then the last with particular implications for the pull our i sheets, for example, how concerned should we be about their vulnerability and what are the implications for all of us and, you know, i think nothing. the sheets are a very good example side of the toner. i streets the glasses, see us as well. sort of frozen pots about a box on that system as we will in the atmosphere. you would expect on average, that you would be melting the frozen pots of the climate system. and if we look at
4:28 pm
the long periods of the decades, we all seeing a wiring decrease in the the see us in the polar regions, the ice sheets agreements announce hops, codes, glasses around the world. and i have several rather worried consequences as we melt slaves. our sheets, the water runs off and then she finds its way to the ocean. so it's the fuel was the sea level rise of those other communities, the depending on fresh which are funding the change, the pressure on which results is yeah, huge implications. perhaps a, a bit more of a political question. now, mr. here with the reality is that the response of world leadership has been inadequate dangerously inadequate. some would say, what do you think can be done to fire up legislation that will force actual change? yes, so it is a very difficult challenge to, besides trying to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gas is, is a major challenge. and so there are lots of activities type of price. and the report doesn't know, these ones booms, glimmer of hope is renewable energy. we are producing
4:29 pm
a lot more renewable energy now. so 2023. we saw about 50 percent more renewable energy production than $20.00 to $22.00. so we carry on with those things. we do have some hope, but you're right. we do need to do a lot more and so as we move towards comp $29.00 and as a bunch of what i need to follow on from success as a complement, jason, to bind, bring the political leaders together to take action as soon as possible. transaction is needed, right, and some scientists have advocated for g o. engineering, for example, injecting solve for particles into the stratosphere to reflect the sunlight or capturing carbon dioxide that at the source. are we now at a time when we need such desperate measures and all those, those measures unknown as to what exactly was happening in terms of changing rain for happens or storms and things. so those are unknown interventions and so a sick or unclear one is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and then ultimately reduce the concentrations of the greenhouse gases. and you have to stay with your
4:30 pm
fuel and the woman. thank you. thank you very much for talking to us about this chris here at director of climate at the world meter launch co organization joining us there on the news. okay, thank you. we're fine. just in australia, concerned by another mass, bleaching of coral on the great value of re 5 o'clock before some town sale. the coral is vital to marine ecosystems and provides a habitat for much of the marine life. these are some of the 1st images in the aerial assessment of coal bleaching in the great barrier reef. bleaching occurs when will my ocean temperatures and pollution force cold to expel the algae that lead the mid to sheets. y'all to give the color range of color. scientists have declared 2020 full a mess, bleaching event. we call a mess carl bleaching when we see the majority of carls on many of the race that we survey across large areas of the marine park are bleaching. and that's the
4:31 pm
situation where and at the moment carl bleaching is just a stress reaction from karl. so you could compare it, for example, to heat stroke in a human until now called in the southern section of the 2002, let me just stretch a brief head loudly escapes the most severe consequences of bleaching the heat. stress caused by an extreme marine hate live over an extended period of time means some structures, hundreds of years old, have been severely damaged. it's disturbing to say the least it's, it's sad it's um, it's infuriating really because we know the cause. marine biologist. jodi rama has witness 5 mess bleaching events on the great barrier reef in the past 8 years, she says ocean temperatures are increasing at a rate never seen before. and that's an oven assigned to the biggest coal system in the world. we're seeing this back to back year upon year. the reef means
4:32 pm
many years to recover from these heat waves and it's just not getting it. what's happening here on the great, by our roof is also happening on rapes around the world. or the last 12 months warming see surface temperatures have caused bleaching events in the northern hemisphere. and the only near conditions in the pacific have amplified the situation. so to save widespread bleaching in both northern and southern hemisphere puts the will on the cost of a global bleaching event. so we certainly saying a year on the increase in temperatures and, and in many wise for us that's meant that we've, we've actually starting to recognize that every, uh, there's going to be some explanation of, of thermal stress for space these lot, carl's, you, this guy's world heritage committee will decide if the great barry should be listed as in danger when it meets in new delhi in july. sarah clock out to 0. townsville
