10:02 pm
that the proposal builds on the points of agreement achieved over the past week and closes the remaining gaps in a manner that allows for the rapid implementation of the agreement. the statement goes on to say that technical teams will be meeting over the course of the next several days, and it also states that officials will be meeting in cairo before the end of next week. now, also of note on friday, a statement issued by customers, ministry of foreign affairs that announced that got those 4, administer, and prime minister ship them. how many not that i am on a sandy, that he held a phone call with the acting iranian foreign minister in which both men discussed, among other things, those joint mediation efforts that took place in costa. how much improvement just need for the us state department is not released a statement. it says secretary of state and to be blanking is going to travel to

10:04 pm
this lasers, right? of talks that was a certain amount of skepticism about what they could achieve, but joe biden clearly believes that this could get done of the yeah. and the reason he feels that is shortly after making those comments to reporters. he then went and held a phone call, according to the senior administration. official with the leaders of both cuts are and egypt. and what we understand is that uh, from the emerging of that call, he felt even more positive telling a senior administration officials that to really the feeling is, is that the last 48 hours has been some of the most productive in terms of getting this cease fire deal, and these discussions i have been the most productive in the last 48 hours. now, the reason for that, and the feeling of optimism really comes down to this as well. have a jump to with. it's amazing is that there is in terms of these gaps that has been outstanding for many weeks. there's now what they're calling a final bridging proposal for every single one of these obstacles. in other words,
10:05 pm
they've overcome the solution and now the final are fine. point details just need to be worked out in terms of the implementation. whether it be clear in russell, whether it be medical service, whether it be the release of captives and exchange for policy, prisoners and as really jails. in other words, things are ready to implement and go ahead on day one ad. there's no risk to israel security. in fact, the administration official says is real security isn't has. and that's why there's a belief that this is really ready to go ahead. so there's a lot of optimism on the us side in terms of moving forward with this as these parties go ahead and meet in cairo next week. kimberly it does, of course, um, it seemed as though there is reason to be positive here, but of course there's the possibility that this could all go off the rails. what is the us fear could the rail, the whole process?
10:06 pm
yeah, there's only one thing and one thing only that the united states says is looming like a dark shadow. and that is the thread of iran watching some sort of retaliatory attack, i guess, is real. and in a word, the united states to say don't, now the united states does not have direct relations with iran, but it certainly has communicated through other allies. don't we mean it? the consequences for ron shouldn't decide to do that in the words of the united states would be cataclysmic. still the united states says is prepared for all contingencies and has full 3rd is 4th in the region, just in case iran decides to ignore the warnings of the united states as his allies . kimberly, thank you. kimberly how good at the whitehouse, honda so who has motor on the is there any reaction to the chalks from jordan's capital? and let me just remind you that the reason that our teams there is because these
10:07 pm
really governments bind. i'll just go from reporting inside israel is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu is off, is releasing a statement saying that his role appreciates the efforts that mediators are doing in order to dissuade him, us from rejecting a ceasefire deal altogether. israel says that their views and terms are known to mediators, and they hope that the mediators can put pressure on him us in order to accept the framework that was outlined by you as president joe biden. back in may. now i must have said that they did not want to enter new negotiations, but they did want to work off of the framework that was presented by bite and at the end of may. but anonymous source is speaking to is really media have said that while there has been some progress, there are still gaps that needs to be filled. and among those gaps, our conditions that were outlined by is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu. back in july, when he released essentially a list of red lines and non negotiable that his role was not willing to compromise
10:08 pm
on us secretary of state anthony blinking is set to arrive in israel on sunday and meet with these rarely prime minister in the us has confirmed that's to put pressure on that's and you also in order to get him to accept the deal and according to his really media as well, at this hour, we're hearing that there will be in his really delegation that's dispatched to cairo on sunday. i'm to send fluids, as you know, i'm on the policy. any health minister says it is confirmed the 1st case of polio and the gaza strip for 25 years. the virus has been detected in a 10 month old baby and dental bother you and is urgency calling for a 7 day pause in fighting and gaza. so it can vaccinate 640000 children against polio. you're in chief, i'm telling you of the tat. it says the world health organization wants to send 1200000 vaccines to the strip officer. the virus was detected in waste water last months. the successful vaccine nations campaign need safety. a
10:09 pm
safety foot elsewhere goods to do that jobs, safety for children and families to get to the health facilities and safety for those else facilities to be protected from bombardments. i am appealing to all part of this to provide concrete, the short of the seas right away, get emptying humanitarian pauses for the campaign. let's be clear is the payments vaccine for paulding the space and then the media to manufacturing ceasefire. that is really all i mean is, this is several new displacement orders affecting the north and central and southern parts of garza and effectively reduce the size of a so called safe zone. and con eunice to less than 20 square kilometers. palestinians have been forcibly displaced numerous times have little option, but to move again with reduced access to water. a serious concern. i'll just say
10:10 pm
there's probably a couple of assume has more from dental balance in the central guys and those a so called humanitarian zones on getting smaller and with it the opportunity to access something as basic but critical as well to hundreds of thousands forcefully displaced, posting ends up being pushed out of dairy, bella, and central goza, and the from the slip, 2nd largest city, han eunice in the south, is very forced to say how most has used these areas to fully. a moses and rockets at israel civilians have an option to pick up and go a button that's played out repeatedly, to have received warnings to evacuate this area. we're collecting mold and carry. you tell me where should i go? all the people of gauze have been crammed into a tiny spot, and with being pounded from all directions,
10:11 pm
dary bella has 18 root to wells. 10 of them located in the east. now the scene of fierce fighting. in con eunice, the population is being squeezed into a smaller parcels of land on sit to live in the low low. you'll see it uh about 85 percent of the entire province of con, you designed to see only 18 of the $108.00 squared killing me since i left for the population as tiny areas, crammed with people who it is almost impossible, more than 80000 palestinians are crammed here without the basic necessities of life . this defies logic to panic and see to the smooth colleagues people forced to flee again. the explosions on not far away. where the bottom line is that there is no safe space and gaza, no sheltered,
10:12 pm
no food or water, nothing at all. the whole world is watching us in silence view and says about 84 percent of the strip has been placed on the evacuation order is by the is really military. that's one point. knowing middle, you know, has been forcibly displaced. the goal is a strip of everything, so that offer more than 10 months of unrelenting attacks. there's no response. families here are struggling to this is only been only a humanitarian conditions, especially with is relevant to, since it's so cold, humanitarian. so that's has led to less access to media by which the services are recognized, which is 0 the showing the customer credit presidential candidate capital. how does is outlined her broad plans for the us economy for the 1st time. she's been speaking at an event in
10:13 pm
raleigh, in north carolina. she's been talking about pond somebody agenda for the 1st 100 days in office. if she's elected president. we know that many americans don't yet feel that progress in their daily lives. costs are still too high and on a deeper level, for too many people, no matter how much they work, it feels so hard to just be able to get ahead. as president, i will be laser focused on creating opportunities for the middle class that advanced their economic security, stability, and dignity. together, we will build what i call an opportunity economy. and that's uh, the democratic presidential candidate counselor house has been talking as we were saying in raleigh, north carolina. she was outlining several points that she was making,
10:14 pm
particularly in relation to how she was going to do with the elements of the economy should should be elected. the president in a laser on elections in november might be might be still ahead of knowledge is either japan's major logical agency lists as mega quake warning. we're going to tell you why aspects of questioning that decision, the the hello again, outbreaks of rain moving west to east spell cutting across a bigger swath of europe. so let's pick up the weather story there. we're starting to see it in central europe. dropping down into the balkans and this is really helping to freshen up the air. the kids are at 25 degrees on saturday. watch what happens on sundays. roamed down to 26th. some heavier burst of rain towards the top
10:15 pm
end of the adria attic, around gracious sylvania, austria of the czech republic, pushing into germany. and by this point, zurich, just 20 degrees for you, let's go back to the here and now on saturday. temperature is also going down up and down. portugal shooting for a height of 31 degrees in lisbon. other end of the mediterranean. it's super easy picture for a stumble on saturday, but you're up to 31 degrees, a few showers here and there, but nothing really major. so let's go to africa right now, and we do have major brain fall pushing out of molly in to send a goal. and again, be a dark, the blue and the yellow. the more intense that rain is falling, and one is in south africa where a weak little disturbance brushes in. so there's going to give us a few showers for cape town, pick up those winds just a bit, go 16 degrees there, but we're still dealing with weather hotter than it should be at this time of the year for places like habit, roney, and my put so 29 degrees for you see the
10:16 pm
african stories from african perspectives really, but i need to do more. we've mainly to short document raise by african filmmakers from morocco. and kenya, colorado pieces can cut that into your one with the customers. it's, can you move them into the echoes of unity and canyon on mars? a new series of african direct on i'll just sierra of the the you watching, i'll just say to remind you of our top story is this our 2nd day of guys
10:17 pm
a ceasefire. adults has ended in deluxe, the white house, as those discussions have been the most productive in months. and the resume in cairo next week is reduce the size of a so called state. so in the southern city of con eunice, displacing fires. and so palestinians, once again, the orders are forcing civilians away from fights on board for reservoirs, which hundreds of thousands of people have been relying tony go bags and is really political commentator. he's as a ceasefire, could be a wind for ness and yahoo and the increased pressure from us and domestic politics . and israel could mean a deal is close. i am assuming that the time is ripe and bases is not on it. and the i was change of heart non changing conditions on your ons, restraint. and on the the, the general sort of sense of urgency that seems to have taken the region of these early tubs. ready at this moment is exhausted, and while they cannot see
10:18 pm
a better solution, other than war for their quote unquote security problems, i've absolutely no doubt that the momentum of a few weeks of disease fire will change, transform the public mood in israel and radical sanctions. i still remember the last ceasefire months ago that was only 2 weeks and the country changed completely . people looked different, they spoke differently about everything. there was a sense of hope. if there's, if a sense of hope is kendall the rekindles here in israel for even a few weeks. i know gotten it to me. i will fine. he has the political count. they don't including even the possibility of winning a snap election. people here are very, very eager for the work and they have just not been presented with any sort of viable solution. but our leadership that includes an end to the war and also some
10:19 pm
sort of handling of security issues. all this is, is framing is missing out of science, a deal those to the is really me and says, this is the best solutions are, is i've gotten, you know, the wrong amount of taxes, but i will not have to, we will no longer be fighting a pointless war and guys i have no doubt the great mate. ready the of the. ready public will support the going to return to the us democratic presidential candidate capital house has made her 1st major economic policies b type speech highly. jo castro is in raleigh where the event has been taking place . i'm hiding. it was covering a lot of ground, but there wasn't a great deal of depth to what she was talking about. what has she been saying of the that's right. she went, why, but she didn't go very deep, but many are saying this is what she was supposed to do. she was laying out the wider vision of her economic agenda if she were elected president. and we know that
10:20 pm
this has been a weakness for democrats with american voters have time and time again, believe that donald trump would perform better on the economy than a democrat. well, here is try to tackle that straight on by talking about her, her fight to lower the cost of living for americans. she said for grocery prices, which have been up at least 20 percent. and since by didn't took office, she would try to nafta federal ban on the price gouging among the brochures. she talked about housing and the lack of that, she said that $3000000.00 new homes would be built by the time she and her 1st term as president. and she said that the government would have inactive. this ambitious plan of getting $25000.00 of down payment assistance to 1st time home buyers. she also talked about tax cuts across the board for middle class americans and giving a $6000.00 tax credit for the parents of newborns that got a big applause here among the her supporters. and then she contrast to that to what
10:21 pm
she says or the from tax. that's what she's calling the chair of that. former president trump has proposed in the past on imports saying that that price would be passed on to consumers. ultimately what she was trying to accomplish here today, 0 was to draw a contrast between herself and trump, what voters out there know these are campaign promises. a lot of them do not materialize. however, she was trying to create that relationship, highlighting her own background, being raised in the middle class family working at mcdonalds when she was in college and saying that in contrast to that, trump was born into a wealthy family. and now only fights for billionaires. the obvious question is, hasn't been any reaction from the the trump come to this the right. we know that they are proactively. it's trying to attack these points, calling them pine, the sky achievements, calling her labeling her a liberal,
10:22 pm
let the trump campaign. trump, himself was here in north carolina just a few days ago, knowing how important this is of a swing states for him. but now the latest poll shows that harris has pulled ahead here in north carolina, leading by about 2 percentage points. and that is in keeping with national polls and pulls of other battleground states, showing that her entrance into this race about a month ago has dramatically shifted the landscape. she is leading now by 4 percent in national polls, as well as, and a number of other battle ground states. so many are saying at this point, she just has to continue writing this momentum, not make any mistakes, but there are still many weeks ahead until the election and a lot for change 0. how do you, thanks very much, if you decided to cost to talking to some raleigh in north carolina, you cases of importance have been detected in pakistan. the health department there is has at least 2 people. so right now i solution in for shotwell, of consent to the virus. they say the patients flew in from the u,
10:23 pm
a e suite and look forward to the 1st case on thursday. the reason the influx outbreak of the more deadly variant started in democratic republic of congo last year and it spreads to neighboring countries. the world health organization has declared a global public health emergency come a hide or has more from this lemma, but a 3 passenger were coming from the united arab emirates were stopped. godfrey showered at board afterwards, the head of the cartridge that issued a statement saying that the 3 were carrying the same dems through of god's have been confirmed. do have the and bulked wider. the 3rd one, i've got the rating. that the dollars which i've been sent to the nation is geared over here and it's all about. so the national, combined and operation center i have gloss has already issued. i know why is it a, to ensure all preparedness in the face of this new thread?
10:24 pm
and i did gm fox. uh. why did it go at the moment? uh, doors, the case is being reported from the type of pop robin. it said what? remembering that back in 2023, they were 11 going from the cases of m fox and focused on one of them died. so indeed, what has happened is that the nation is to do it of head has now issue precautionary measures. that'd be by target job. that includes a routine and watching the game, as well as a clean environment and reading model red, portable. and they have caused relatively looking at incoming passengers to ensure that they're able to timely detect any symptoms of this wider given the fact that they, what it has the organization has already raised the alarm. and the focused on, you know, toddler data of cause really be cognizant of that fact you absolves are concerned
10:25 pm
about in bulk, some, some countries say they want to make more people aware of the risks. jonah hall has more from london as well. one imagines the countries across europe, and indeed more widely than that, probably hardly pulling out and dusting off their viral prevention programs. remember that post code all those measures that are in place in airports and elsewhere, mosse squaring hand washing, screening, and so on. have launched a full in a way and one of the main purposes of the world health organizations decision to, to care a global public health emergency of and fox is to encourage countries to release funding for us that funding for boosting public health systems. and for accelerating the rollout of those measures, testing, screening and so at the biologist saying that, look, while they may be very few identified cases so far outside of the sort of epi center in the democratic republic, a neighboring countries, that probably means there are other cases more cases that are on the identified
10:26 pm
leading to at least the possibility of some sort of rapid global spread. go back to 202223. the 1st time this happened, it was a strain of influx monkey boxes as well as it was to include play too. that was responsible, considered less dangerous, less transmissible, certainly less deadly than the current strain. played one or played one be specifically at thought to be more infectious, deadly in some 10 percent of the cases. ready there's some evidence apparently that children in adolescence might be particularly vulnerable. so certainly there is widespread concern. this will be watched extremely close to the european center for disease control that has raised it's at risk awareness level from low to moderate as far as impacts is concerned. and these kind of the urging or countries to maintain high levels of a lift shows o l g 0 number means national federation, red cross as one to what is coming up. critical shortage of treatment for and fox
10:27 pm
across the african continent. there is a critical shortage of testing treatment and vaccines across the continent. the shortages are, are severely hampering the ability to contain the outbreak. we are calling for urgent international support to increase access to vaccine stocks and treatment options and to scale up testing and alert investigation. as i'm talking is a, is from i am a world health and democratic republic of congo. peace as the risk of influx transmission is higher in refugee camps where health care access is limited. the res bose uh, one thing that we're seeing on did robins dot b this transmission and things like. ready man, and being of the human being more subject to the cops, and these come stuff, you know who to montes interrupted, which is fine you there. so the think the new website has been the college. just watch what that community is. aaliyah hold their wrists around the people,
10:28 pm
so we need to get to minutes. meanwhile, the government isn't this. isaac is, you know, holding for the soft ones, and you can ship in salt resources to make sure that we have enough pups. they actually, we have the country is, you know, i'm looking around 3 meals is about seems to fight against impulse y axis. on the grounds, all these holdings have ended up the what it together to make sure that one side was put into somebody else to get aside the tickets. but also making sure that the student is able to provide needed supports you know, to the most up to, to compliment of its russian officials say at least 11 people have been injured and then ukrainian attack on last whole controlled. and yet the local governors search, the shelling, hit a shopping center on the outskirts of the city, sparkling or fire crushing telegram channels say at least a 100 people inside the center. at the time it comes on a,

10:31 pm
buying as people try to assess the danger we're all concerned but don't know how to prepare in our neighborhood all the rice. we look.
