lives as they hurry through this. his largest bottles own high the tank is behind the classrooms and the schools go, does all save you and decide are of all state we did not want to leave until we saw it with our and i know how to sing using basel are again being pushed force to feed from anywhere, they found refuge. we don't know where to go. we have been displaced from one place to the next and know we have left. we don't know where to go. we are running industries. i thought with my own eyes, i saw the tank and the bulldozer is on that street. a desperate movement after another round of warranty or fire interior. is there a defense minister? how spoken to the us secretary of state, updating him on his armies operation and drop off and the take over of the nearby border crossing into egypt. but there appears to be no end inside the months long

suffering here. war policy and use are being killed, injured or just faced with each passing day. and the pull that is added by gaza palestine, united nation stuff, and that has been killed in an attack in the eastern rafa. u. n has confirmed this is the 1st international stuff casualty in gaza. so extra journal, i'm trying to guitar, which has condemned the attack and called for further investigation. i'll just here is gabriel at his own. the reports from you in headquarters in new york. bullet holes through the back window of a vehicle. clearly mark united nations, the driver of the vehicle, an international un worker for the department of safety and security was killed. and another one was injured while writing and a convoy headed to the european hospital in rafa. while a 190 un staff had been killed and guys in the past 7 months, it was the 1st time in international stafford and not palestinian was killed. the

secretary general condemns all the tax on you and personnel, and calls for a full investigation. he sent his condolences to the family of the fall and staff member with the conflict and gaza, continuing to take a heavy tool not only on civilians, but also on humanitarian workers. the secretary general reiterates has urgent appeal for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. and for the release of all hostages, is it fair to characterize this as an attack? so yes, the head of the u. n. relief and works agency for palestinian refugees posted on the social platform x. no one is safe and gaza, including aid workers, are teams, and gods are grieving the loss of their friends and colleagues, 8 workers, and you and staff or not and never should be a target. the secretary general has called for an investigation into all of the killings of every un staffer in gaza. the last 7 months. he's also called for

an investigation into the mass graves or recently discovered as well. but in order for there to be an independent inquiry, it requires access for the investigators to get to the locations for the crimes took place and israel controls access in and out of gaza. so far, israel has failed to cooperate gabriel's on don't. i'll just say to united nations, new york, the white house says the us doesn't believe genocide is taking place and goes up. it's the national security advisor, jake sullivan was question, while whitehouse correspondence. kimberly, how could the more, the 35000 palestinians have been killed as a result of israel's war on gaza? still national security advisor j sullivan says the biden administration does not see the killing of palestinians. but israel as genocide,

even as the us report presented back in march, says there are reasonable grounds to believe that israel is committing genocide as defined under international law. how can you say genocide? it's not being committed, as i just told you, i think the best way for me to answer that question is actually to ask you to look at the lay down that we gave, which st. louis and how are you saying that she's a liar? the united states is laid down at the international court of justice in writing in detail. it's position on this issue and i'd ask you to read it. the national security adviser also said there could be a cease fire in israel's war and gaza is home us. release is the hostages. he's calling on the international community to pressure him us to return to the negotiating table and accept a deal. kimberly help you out to 0. the white house,

and rode out. but you still when you do it most kindly, apple is the most know the cranium. presidents has the flight and is more intense on another part of the front line. and the beast. last name is that the if the idea behind the attacks and the hockey region is displayed on forces than an on demand, the motivation for ukrainians to defend themselves. the pol, crossing direction is the most difficult to spot everything to the line that has been susie combat engagements, the metix, they were pulling out wounded troops. the soldier was concussed. officer of russia moved to attack ship sometimes on the desk. we are coaching, but it is difficult. we keep up the defense and that's it was one of the to do the tech from multiple directions on the move. the 1000 moments of front line means the ukraine. you know me just trying to plug symbols time easily, a number of gaps, an army outgunned in outland for u. s. t, the secretary of state and to be blinked and said that there's been

a cost in the months long delay in getting a $61000000000.00 us military. a package approved it was held up in the republican majority. congress lincoln said defense equipment with $400000000.00 had now been prioritized with weapons already beginning to arrive here more or expected to be delivered next month, including a 16 flight to jets. the cranes is desperately needs, but some of the items will take many months to get in until the front line. it means a significant window for russia to press home its advantage. and that's exactly what it stood, gentleman out to say to keith. still ahead on alex's here, the test isn't police back on the streets in georgia as parliament prepares for controversial sites

and blasting away back into baltimore. demolition crews remove the remains of a bridge that's was rammed by containers. the this is a front line where there is little life after more than half a year of hostilities that began when hezbollah opened up a front to help its allies from us in casa, we are traveling with members of the united nations peace keeping force there on patrol with lebanon's army, we are here to support them and these government to take control of the situation. but the army is not the dominant force here. has the law has a strong presence even before this late, this confrontation, nearly 100000 lebanese, have left their homes and livelihoods. it's a similar situation on the other side of the border, who says the cost of or official say last that are already in the billions of

dollars. although the concert this still larger contain and confined to the, for the region, as well as says, the conflict won't end until there's a ceasefire in casa, but possibly not even then. because isabel is threatening a wider war, if border security doesn't improve. on counting, the cost is real installation defense as tech, a whole trade for the nation. so one of the economic costs of buying on how to send in watkins in as well as pending labor, as livelihoods and can popular new weight loss trucks reshape the industry. counting the cost on alex's era, the or the us out to remind of the main stories. now israel has car that multiple attacks and

central guns shooting at least 14 palestinians and even many more trucks. under the rubble, the tax targeted a home and the school has been housing displaced. people not to nations has confirmed that one of its employees has been killed in dallas office vehicles came on the flyer you and the secretary general has condemned monday's attack for food investigation. donald trump's former lawyer, michael cohen has testified that he goes to approval from trump to pay hush money for the adult films to us. to mcdaniel's, prosecutors choose the former us president of concealing the investment to may to come in as a business expense. okay. and took the stand at trump's criminal trial in new york, which is examining the alleged payments made to doug, goes to hide in the fair when they run up to the 2016 presidential election. cohen told the quotes that trump wasn't thinking about trying to protect his wife,

and that it was one about the campaign. trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records. christmas, letting the reports from outside the courts in new york. michael cohen is a lawyer by trade, but on the stand he described himself as donald trump's former fixed, or someone who was willing to lie and bully people to please his former boss, particularly in the run up to the 2016 election when a lot of bad news was surfacing about donald trump that in then this access hollywood tape that came out where donald trump was overheard making very disparaging comments about women. michael cohen's description of his the efforts on the sand included working with the publisher of a national tabloid. david tucker and donald trump, to allegedly buried these stories, in some cases, paying money for them not to be published at the heart of this case is the

$130000.00 payment that michael college says he made to stormy daniels, the adult film star whose testimony is key to the prosecution proving that donald trump hit that payment describing it as a legal fee, despite knowing that it was being used to pay off someone for bearing this bad news . now, the defense is expected to focus on the fact that michael cohen is someone of questionable credibility given that he has pleaded guilty to several times themselves. federal crimes, back in 2018, including lying to congress. it is a theme that was taken up outside of the court house by republican politicians who showed up to support the former president. donald trump is a convicted, convicted felon. i mean this guy, he's up there given an acting same. and all of

a sudden he comes out and says, oh i have recorded president trump on my telephone, my this, this guy, i work for present trip. i mean, how can you be convinced by somebody that is a serial lar, the prosecution is expected to finish presenting its case by the end of this week, unknown at this time whether or not the defense will call former president donald trump, to testify in his own behalf christian salumi, i'll just hear a new york know every time is a physical analyst and officer of the g. p. a civil war inside the battle for the soul of the republican party. he joins us from washington, dc. welcome to the program. so what did you make of michael cohen's testimony then? did he deliver as it was? well, i think he deliberate booth a big question mark. we actually heard from michael cohen about the falsification of the business records because he took that document that is already been verified

to have alan. why so work signature that shows the plus up of the money and shows how the falsification was actually going to work. and he tells blow by blow detail by detail how they went to donald trump's office and spoke to donald trump about this. now where the question comes in is, well, the jury actually believe this because there is no one to corroborate what michael michael cohen actually said, but we have the corroboration and how but sure the checks themselves were actually made out and present it to michael cohen as well as the information on the piece of paper by alan, why so burke and so this will now be where the jury is going to have to either put this information together for themselves because there is no smoking gun or no one that is painted like michael cohen was actually telling this story one, of course michael, kevin has already been to prison on the federal charges. so does that make it more

difficult for the julie to believe it? well, i don't know if it makes it more difficult for them to believe them, because what we also heard from michael cohen today is michael cohen was corroborating and filling in a lot of blanks in terms of what i think was a very strong foundation in terms of how the prosecution we this narrative together over the course of 4 weeks. and also the fact that the defense did not object very much to what michael cohen was actually saying today. i think what we got from michael cohen was someone who did not bring a lot of the bluster a lot of the defensive nets and rancor that many expected. and of course, the way he was described by many of those witnesses who have been on the stand today, i think we saw a very different michael cohen and it's unclear what the jury will think of michael cohen. but he's certainly came across as credible the question is,

will it actually stand up on cross examination on in the why the sense then politically, does this make any difference a tool when it comes to donald trump's popularity, especially when he consider a coming us election is the only way that this case is going to have an impact. politically, is it, donald trump is actually found guilty and i think of donald trump is found guilty. i think it will be the beginning of the end of his presidential run because he, it's something that he simply will not be able to come back from. now, polls are continuing to show that donald trump is leading particularly, and those all important battle round states. but when you drill down in those numbers and start speaking directly to likely voters, meaning those who are certainly going to vote, they overwhelmingly are moving more more towards joe biden. and so i think a guilty verdict will hang like a scarlet letter around donald trump's neck. and so i think that is the only place where this is actually want to have an impact if he's found guilty that so donald

trump and his lawyers have to make sure that he does not actually get a guilty verdict because that could be problematic for the right, time, we very much appreciate your time here. thank you. my protest continuing georgia ever proposed and all that aims to reduce the phone influence in the country parliament is set to hold a final vote in the coming hours. opponent save cost, it could be used to crack down on descent and could end the georgian bids to join the european union to meet your resident reports from the capital tbilisi. a sporadic scuffles as thousands of georgians gathered me upon them and demanding the so called for an agent's bill be dropped. several people injured dozens to take many staying through the nights to make a stand. they were met with a large police force sealing off the building. i have never seen the some of the police and i, i think that all the policemen are here now. and i, i really think like there's some of the might be some problems the other side of

the city or the country because everyone is you mobilized. i've been here all night to defend my constitutional rights and to, to nice, not flush our ruling party to possibly a russian law and to, for georgia to not become right to protest, to say it's similar to a law adopted in russia 12 years ago now used to crack down on the sense demonstrate as expected, a long stand off during the reading of the motor. so maybe at the parliament's traditional committee cleared it in under 2 minutes or so to get the kids have only up the ruling georgia dream policy and its allies have enough seats to win the vote on tuesday. yeah, well maybe close some kind of the is a member and the head of parliament's for an offense committee. he explained why the party wants this vote now because the elections are upcoming. and we see that the forwarding interference into elections in any country has become a standard practice. and the funding interference is done not through

a political parties on leave, but also through a non governmental organizations. therefore, we need the transparency of funding or for any or for non governmental organizations. you officials continue to apply pressure saying the bill could and george's bid to join the you. instead of making general comments. they, you should tell us which article on the law is not compatible with the european centers with the final vote on this bill taking place at noon on tuesday. these people here say that's definitely going to come. they're gonna skip work. they're going to skip classes in order to make themselves to meet them at that go out to 0 . so it's, it's in southern brazil that are considering relocating in time neighborhoods to higher ground of to weeks of devastating floods. at least 147 people have died in the floods and then slides. more than half a 1000000 people are sleeping in temporary shelters in the 4th grade, neighboring occupancy, and there was also suffering from heavy flooding. while the 500 people have been

government for such a long time on hub voices. tick tock has been a place for organizing politically, for getting people to vote for getting people to protest, connect with our community and tap into conversations you weren't find elsewhere. why is our government taking us to work on the basis of live? we? the public has to get out there and do something about it. the stream announces era . the laura kyle, this is counting the cost on al jazeera. you'll week you look at the, well, the business and economics this week. as well as i selection deepens as tequila, holts, trade with the nation. what will that cost of their economies? a lot of the countries also have punished as well as what's more ongoing. so as
