9:03 pm
have taken part for them is they make their way through the city and on the sides you can see 1000 suspect types of some 300000 people all watching on the banks of the sudden many of them parisians, who are given these tickets and an opportunity to take part in this traditional, unusual and daring open sermon. and then we just saw the american superstar sing and lady ga. gov as well as singing a little early performing on a piano with note for them in the background say so far, it is spectacular as the artistic director of the evening. so many said it will be full of surprises and look is gonna last more than 3 hours. so i think we're gonna see a lot of exciting things to come. all right, fantastic. and we started off with lady yaga, so it only can get better and tell me give me an update on the weather. well look, i mean the days we've had bright sunshine, blue skies, and clearly the organizes were hoping it would stay that way, but sadly can pull the seat behind me. it is pretty gloomy, pretty grey,
9:04 pm
but that has no dump and spirits people still come out there makes so many. there's still looks amazing as you watch these after these going down the river, or through the center of the city to 6 columbia to route the 1st time and opening ceremonies that were being held outside of the stage. and people are delighted that taken thoughts in something really different and you can feel that a lot of good energy and yes, a lot of good energy in the air because the thing didn't really start to very well . it started off on a, on a bad note. so there was an attack on francis railway system. what type of impact has it have on the opening of ceremony if any well, so far, hopefully not. and although of course earlier today, i mean people were feeling well at the anxious because it was just a few hours before this evening. so many that we have that a multi august and attack on the phone. so is a railway system where cables were caught on fire as late as 3 key locations. now
9:05 pm
that caused a major disruption more than a 100000 people were impacted some people traveling. so there's some holidays. others moving around for the and then picks not french. authorities have said that an investigation has been a long they are going to look for the perpetrators. they're trying to pay down any links with even pick games. but clearly coming just before the evening started reading it field, a lot of anxiety below the ceremony is on the way things so far going smoothly. we know that security is of the whole time high and the see 45000 police officers on petrol and everyone is just hoping that it continues to be safe and people enjoy what is supposed to be a festive moment. all right, and the pressure of butler enjoy a catch up with you later. thank you. the donald trump has met with is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu at his mar
9:06 pm
alonzo home in florida. the former us president called for a swift and to the war and gauze on the immediate return of captives. netanyahu said israel would be sending a negotiating team to cease fire talks in room. at the beginning of the week, the 2 leaders forged a close alliance during trump tiers in the white house. but they fell out when y'all congratulated by on his victory in the 2020 election. now trump has falsely claimed the election was stolen from him by voter fraud. or let's say go to a phil laval for details. he is in charlotte, north carolina. that's where our donald trump has been speaking. so what, what do we know about this meeting? any career agenda going into this? yeah, just so you actually have moved a few miles south. i'm actually in west palm beach in florida. this is where my logo is and this says donald trump. so that's why it's not too far away. it's not too far away, but this was an ext uh,
9:07 pm
an invitation that was extended by donald trump to nothing you want him to come here because this is a meeting, but he needs to all intents and purposes right now donald trump is effectively a civilian right. he's a nominee, but he's not in office and he has seen nothing. yahoo! meet the current president. he's seen that yahoo meet carmella harris who strive stands a strong chance of being the nominate, maybe even the president in january and she met netanyahu yesterday. she said that she had cold. uh, she would not be silence on the issue of gaza. were told that the conversation was very frank, which usually means testy. so donald trump had to have this phase of opportunity to project the fact that he could also be the man in the white house, dealing with probably a prime minister netanyahu it just a few months time. and he described those comments by couple of harris has probably you would expect as disrespectful. and he said, what we've heard him, i'd say it is rallies that we're on, the precipice of wells will free the only he can save us because he says, and i quote, we have incompetent people running our country. now why prime minister netanyahu
9:08 pm
a right here just before lunch time with his wife, they were greeted warmly on the steps of mar logo. donald trump actually referred to, sorry, his wife, mister netanyahu, his wife as his secret weapon, and then they go straight down to business. and we have been told that this would be a close meeting, but obviously because it's such a big pay off which pay all opportunity for donald trump. i'm from mister netanyahu . those images, those videos have been coming through where we saw them at the table talking. remember, donald trump is trying to project himself as the man who will bring about, well, peace and peace in the middle east. he revealed the other day on his platform, treat social, but he received a letter from the palestinian president, mack, me the boss in which mister abbas had said that he was very sorry that he was horrified. somebody had tried to kill don't, will trump donald trump put that on line, he put his signature on it and he wrote everything will be okay. and obviously for nothing yahoo, this is a very strong relationship that he needs to bring back online. because if donald
9:09 pm
trump does come back to the white house, he is going to be a israel may protect made of supply. and while the democrats are in this position right now, without having to struggle, lot line between the they flights of the people on gauze and being aware of it. and so those words from kind of a high risk, but also being seen, to support israel, to support israel is right to defend itself. donald trump is got a the other way. he is progressing himself as a friend of israel, as you said, joining his time and office. he was a strong is really i like, remember he moved the us embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem. he recognized is writing software and see over the golden heights. he was hard line on a run, but of course they did full allowance because nothing yahoo recognized that set bite and had won the election. donald trump was not happy about that. but if he is back in office, if he's going to bring about peace in the middle east, as he said he's going to do, it's very difficult unless the 2 men are on friendly terms. and that is why most of
9:10 pm
them need this meeting as much as they all that right. they seem to have hit the reset button to fill lavelle a reporting from palm beach, florida. thank you. like to welcome now, richard. the good thing. no, he's the democratic strategist and served as an advisor to former president bill clinton and he comes to his life from washington dc. a very good day, sir. welcome to alger 0. mr. newton yeah, was visit tomorrow logo. what do you think his objective is? was pretty clear in his own country. uh, maybe not yahoo. i was not very popular. you see these rally is i'm calling for new elections and frankly for him to step down the people do, i think in israel, remember the years that donald trump was president as ones where trump basically let yahoo do whatever he wants to be on the settlements. that's fine,
9:11 pm
with the embassy. sure. you called for a muslim band. right. and so far he is. you have to call for a 2 state solution which we know a lot of this really is one, but netanyahu does not want. so netanyahu's, obviously trying to get in the good graces of trump, who as you just heard, might be back in the white house. and if so, israel is obviously quite relying on the us, but the fact is joe biden to catch himself as i is. i don't think donald trump knows what that means, but israel does have a good friend in the white house now, but obviously trouble is looking for way to a distance himself a little bit from the current administration. mm hm. uh and i wonder, uh sir, can uh, trump seal uh the ceasefire agreement that's on the table right now. we're now give him that when that break through, that he has denied bite and it's possible. i think if i was
9:12 pm
netanyahu, i would think twice about that it would be such a laugh at the current administration on who he is quite reliance for military and non military assistance set for netanyahu to put trump in that position, i think would be our belief bad judgment, and i think that yahoo displaced that judgement often. i don't think even his judgement would be that bad. and what's not kid ourselves with trump says he's a man of peace. i don't really know who assigns weight to what donald trump has to say about pretty much anything. and the look he said israel should finish the job in god's that that sounds like he means level god entirely. so and he says, israel has a public relations problem, isn't like everything is going fine, it's just the public relations that are bad. so again i, i would kind of think twice before i would put too much weight in anything the
9:13 pm
donald trump has to say about the peace process. now as you know, trump has been described by many people as transactional. what possibly could newton yahoo give him in return for his support as well? again, supporters or why i, you know, i don't know that from frankly at this stage. and he's already given netanyahu everything he wants. rhetorically. again, supplements as much as you want, moving the embassy um, a total green light to quote finish the job because i don't really know what more trump clinic give netanyahu at this point. you're right. if there's anything that trump is, it's transactional, but i think netanyahu is trying to kind of combine his way back. he obviously alienated trunk by god forbid saying good job. i'm had won the election and trying to return that favor by saying he thought that that the i wouldn't some response in respects was responsible for what happened on october 7. so i think you're trying
9:14 pm
to both to keel, that's kind of bad blood. but i don't really know that there is much the trunk again, netanyahu at this stage of the game. yes, surely netanyahu could say you, mr. come to be the one to announce. i'll sign this piece deal. i'm skeptical about that. and now, you know, we're 9 months in to this war which is turning into we're one of the most are consequential, you know, to monetary and catastrophe of the country. you find yourself in a quagmire. doug in the trump administration, as you so eloquently pointed out, was aligned and a tune to israel's wants. and it's also the major architect of abraham of courts, something that the current white house also has followed suit and tried to will it into existence. and i'm talking about the saudi israel normalization that they want to get off the ground. where do you see that the standing right now?
9:15 pm
it's interesting, i think much is trump townsley abraham accords. one could make the case that it was the cost of the abraham accords. um a mazda and the palestinian generally felt like nobody was paying attention to them . and indeed, if you listen to trump and his son in law who helped negotiate this deal, they almost said that, oh, we don't have to concern ourselves with the palestinians anymore. it all these countries in the region, respect, israel of commerce with israel, that really will solve many of the problems. and here we are, as you say, 9 months into this horrible loss of life on both sides. and i just think it speaks to an injury. transactional aspect of trumps. he states he thought as a business person, oh yes, they can do business with each other. whatever has happened to me for palestinians won't matter. guess what it did and does. and i think in contrast, um by didn't sees that the stories really do have an opportunity to weigh in
9:16 pm
perhaps to the brain, things with the mouse and maybe with the pelting authority to a different point than they are. now. obviously it's predicated on the defensive b is israel, but us would provide that studies and a recognition of the studies of israel as israel accepting a 2 state solution, which i think is really going to be very hard so long as donald trump might be present today. it's a queen to us. i think netanyahu is going to hold out because it does not want that . you've made that perfectly clear. richard a good stay. thank you for joining us. my pleasure. thank you. meanwhile, on the ground in gaza is really fighter jets have carried out a new wave of air strikes, targeting various areas across the strip, at least $21.00 people were killed and one person was killed in an attack on the residential building. and the say that refugee camp and central garza, while
9:17 pm
a raid on a house and gaza city killed at least 2 people and in hon. eunice in the south, at least 18 palestinians have been killed. i'm off says it's fighters. have been targeting is really tanks using rocket propelled grenades. meanwhile, thousands of displays, people have been forced to flee to estimate where see in the south west. but the palestine red crescent says there's no space there is real initially declared and my where c 8 so called save so but has attacked it repeatedly with nowhere else to go. many families have been forced to move into cemeteries and holiday reports from there's been a of the living now lives alongside the dead display several times . but is there any talks and evacuation orders? these palestinians are forced to pitch tense in the symmetry,
9:18 pm
sometimes sleeping next to the grave of a person very thought they will live in john berman law shut off. i swear that i have seen a lot of dead people. i live here in the cemetery and i see dozens of bodies every day. i suffer too much on life is non stop suffering. but even the grim accommodation may be temporary, with israel's worth showing, no sign of ending, they could be forced to move again at any moment. the gods we move every day from one place to another displacement has almost killed us. we don't have money moving is expensive. we urge fire of countries and muslim nations to help us to stand with us. we need a solution. con unice has been completely destroyed. we ended up living with the dead in the cemetery all day and i'm kept. god only knows how we survived. shells were coming towards us from everywhere. we live in a graveyard. we shared the space with good people. the living conditions here are
9:19 pm
only fits for the dead. there is no running water, no toilets, nothing that can being a little comfort cemetery is supposed to be a final resting place. perhaps the lucky ones will be forced to move once again and survive. the lucky ones will be buried with their tents, ones too. and just for the odyssey to the cause of palestine, us and the united kingdom will no longer try to stop the international criminal court from issuing arrest warrants for is rarely leaders. the deadline for it to submit a challenge has passed. the previous conservative governments had been considering its legal options. you might remember in may or i c. c prosecutor or karen kerry. my con said he was applying for arrest forms for is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and defense minister you'll have to lots for alleged war crimes committed and got
9:20 pm
some con, also sort warrants for 3. i'm us leaders. the former us president brock obama and michelle obama. have endorsed cala harris's bit to be the next president obama's phone, the presumptive democratic or party nominate while she was out campaigning to offer their support to take lessons. i am proud of you. this is going to be historic. we called to say, michelle and i couldn't be prouder to endorse here and to do everything we can to get you through the selection of and into the oval office. oh, my goodness, michelle practice mean so much to me. i am looking forward to doing this with the 2 of you. all right, so we can talk to alan fisher now, who's alive from the white house. alan, how much does the endorsement of the obama is help? and what kind of roles could they potentially play while they came inevitable? the question was, why didn't they do on sunday?
9:21 pm
and clearly, in the interim, no feasible candidate, i managed in many, many democrats, swung the weight by and come with how to see immediately i 900 endorsement by joe biden. and also by the clintons, that was imported by the obama still hold a bit of sweep, but no one was waiting to find out if are know, if they would endorse or not everyone else jump 10 and decided that camera was their, their candidate. and also we saw it had no real impact on a fundraising. she still managed to break barriers with the why was lot just didn't call on wednesday with people pledging support with many black voters. the nice thing that they to we're going to buy tamela house. so it's important from the democratic point of view because of course, obama was the last democratic president before joe by the so that's significant. the still are reasonably powerful figures in the democrats, but it's not going to make any difference. no one is now going to say, well, if the obama is a but i think i will,
9:22 pm
that it was the direction of travel for the democrats. no, allen, the democrats are riding high. they're all fired up. but i wonder how does all of this translate into, you know, convincing those voters we're still in the friends who are completely apathetic. when it comes to the election in november, a lot of the voters have decided what they're going to do. ready. and that look on both sides isn't going to move. you're either going to vote for donald trump or you're not going to vote for donald trump. and certainly donald trump got a bump after the convention, but it lasted a very short period because it disappeared very quickly on sunday, with joe biden and noticing he was out of the race and couple of how to essentially securing the democratic nomination. the 40 hours passed towards so that bodies which you normally get just simply disappeared. instead, tamela has go to bugs. she's going to bodies from a 9 saying a getting all these endorsements as well. now she's got to convince the undecided
9:23 pm
voters, and that's where the selection will be decided that she is a better choice. and if you go back to the beginning of this year, many poll said people didn't want either donald trump or joe biden to run. so now they're looking at common law. this is this, the difference that we were looking for is the, someone you, someone who perhaps aligns with my views. she's got a big job over between now and the election. she has got to convince those undecided voters that she is, the better choice, but she's go off to a good start. she's cutting momentum, and she's got to keep that going between now and november if she wants to win the white heads. alan fisher reporting. thank you. so much for your continued coverage and return our attention now to ethiopia, which has declared 3 days of morning after 2 alliance slides swept through a remote region in the south and heavy machinery. your cannot reach the area. so risk your teams and volunteers. i've been using their bare hands and shovels to dig
9:24 pm
through the month. well, the united nation says at least $257.00 bodies have been recovered. and the death toll could rise because many people are still unaccounted for. out you 0 is i'm a homage vol sent as this update from the sites of the land slide where a local villagers are still recovering bodies. i'm of the size of that on slide that killed hundreds of people here in southern ethiopia. behind me, you can see the mountain top from which a huge chunk team down doing a heavy duty in a don't on sunday, killing many people i'm betting homes under people here tell us about the initial on slide was limited and it killed only a few people but when a huge crowd came for us to another big one took place and that's the one the task . and so many at the bottom of the hill, 6 days so flocked to these last that took place. people out of them setting in the month for their loved ones feel for the keys. tell us not to move on to doesn't
9:25 pm
people are still missing. here. you see a new body has just been back up from, from the mother a few minutes later. they also told us that they have signs, but they might be able to do go and not have all the from here. so the families and the rescue workers are not getting up. many here might be too busy to express degrees, but that's a place not far. that's the decay to death to for that. not only the families of the deceased, but also hundreds of villages continue to come here to attend the funeral home and find out the live village. so i'm going to need to us and in the u. k. are police a police officer router is now under criminal investigation for assault. after he was filmed, checking and stamping on a man at manchester airport. the man's lawyer says he has assist on the brain, and his condition is getting worse. why not wrestling over it should have more
9:26 pm
friday prizes just finished at this most in rochdale. it's the most that the family of the center of this incident usually attends, but they have not been here today. we understand they've been a while and by the events of the last few days, but we have spoken to the members of the community and to be reassured by the fact that there is now an independent investigation into what has happened. good. how much is the police have said that they're gonna cut out the investigation, so we'll wait and see what the investigation finds out. we don't need to be alarmed . we trust in the system. we have to just trust in the system. i'm sure g and people do a sort of job and whatever action is appropriate and necessary, they will take those appropriate actions. i'm not really sure to feel a little bit. so i'm going to say, i'm thinking of going lot of the way because you get scared about going out at night time going out and i work on the id because you're unsure of what there is a head. now the representatives from the independent police watch,
9:27 pm
those have actually met with the family to reassure them that their inquiry will be truly independent and also just explain the escape of the investigation. now, it is important also to know that you may take some time until those conclusions are reached. mean out of a scenario out 0 barksdale and so had here on alger 0 to the world's most wanted fugitive. a legislator is in mexico's, it's in a lower drug cartel, are arrested in texas and the philippine coast guard to force floating barriers in an effort to contain an oil spill from a cap size tanker. and in sports, a warm welcome for asia is vegas sports star, as he returns to the continents, details later in the show, the

the d. a and other us agencies ended up in an airplane together. i think we'll have more information on in the coming days of rumors are pointing towards a, you know, there having been some sort of set up. in the case of maya, somebody that his lawyer in the u. s. has said that she did not go to the us willingly, that he was basically set up and that he did not know that he was of you know, he who was not planning to hand himself it and put this into context for us. so julia, what does this mean for the cartel and the wider campaign against drug traffic? and i'm thinking specifically about fentanyl we're heading north as well. you know, always been speaking to journalists in the state of c, l o, where these men are from and where the, you know, i've got to tell was born and that operates me. it operates and all of mexico and obviously the us, but like people their journal this, they're specifically who follow the story closely. are they're, they're very, you know,
9:40 pm
they're concerned for the immediate aftermath of this arrest history in mexico. shows that when some of these big drug lords are captured, even though it is to some extent, expected in these organizations, that the leaders would be, you know, captured or killed. and they know how to adjust to this. but there's usually an immediate time immediately after it happens, where the power, you know, the power vacuum creates violence. so in seen, a lot of people are kind of, you know, everyone's working from home today. there's, you know, the, the mexican government has sent a special troops over there in case there is any kind of flare up of violence and the immediate aftermath. but i think it would be nice to think in the long term that these, these arrests are going to really, you know, make any difference in the amount of fentanyl, for instance, that reaches the us or in the amount of violence that these organizations caused in mexico. as i mentioned before, you know, the, these groups are, they're very um, horizontal organizations. they're,
9:41 pm
they don't depend entirely on one leader and they're very much used to their top leaders being taken out. uh so they, they know how to adjust. so i don't think anyone certainly in mexico is expecting for there to be any radical change in, in, in the amount of fentanyl entering the us. and you know, we start when a top of this month, the former leader of the scenario effect that was arrested in 2017 uh, ever since. and even though he was trying to us court and sentenced to life in prison, the numbers of violence in this country have not gone down. and the number of the, the amount of fentanyl going into the u. s. has not decreased. so i think history speaks for itself in that sense. julia are going on where reporting from mexico city, julia, thank you. i to turn our attention out to south africa where police have arrested 95 libya. nationals on suspicion of receiving training at a secret and military camp. police re to the camp in white river area in the
