the last monday, a fragile ceasefire, and garza was holding this monday. the war has returned and israel doesn't have plans to hold his forces back. in fact, the finding is expanding, moving from north gaza to south gauze. what does this mean and for some 2000000, god's sins crowded into the southern part of the territory many flight israel's attacks in the north hoping the south would be safer. tonight, trapped among the target's palestinians in southern gaza. the war is approaching and the people they have nowhere left to go abroad. golf and berlin. this is the day the re pursued them in northern gauze. were now pursuing from us in 1000 guys of to we have been urging, causing civilians inside because of strep to evacuate. designated 6 months later,

they went to a safe area. but the reason, though safe area and all that the cause of strip we are giving this size instructions to guzman residents near some us centers of gravity urging it there to temporarily away from that denture that from us. that means there is no safe area of not profit, not from you and is not god. so nope, no the are we we operate is we have done on seeing now towards include the national culture coming up at venezuela. says the country has voted overwhelmingly in favor of its claim on territory belonging to neighboring dion up yonder, calling this an attempt to land re up to get at what's below a better level. but as we expect to retrieve an average that for so long has been desolate as if it didn't have any own a while. but now in this way, that has said,

this is our into our viewers watching on cbs in the united states. and to all of you around the world, welcome, we begin the day with israel's war against them off heading south. these really military says it's ground. defensive is now expanding across all of gods and after weeks and strikes across the northern half of the gauze and strip the focus and the fighting is moving to the south. a senior is rarely commander says, troops are close to completing their were aims. in northern gossip is really tanks have been senior of the southern city of hong units where tens of thousands of displays, palestinians have sought refuge. the army has told civilians to evacuate further selves to the town of bravo, or to a safe zone along the southern coast. israel says this latest expansion is needed to destroy him ox, which is classified by many countries as a terrorist organization. tonight israel's plan to take out the threat from

a mos remains. along with the reality that more civilians will have to dine 2 victims of overnighted tax i brought to this hospital in central garza. there are almost no medical supplies to treat them relative to survived. the attacks are in shop. what can i say? it's a catastrophe. districts are coming down on us. have my 4 year old daughter is under the rubble. i don't know if she's dead or alive. as more civilians are being killed in the gaza strip, israel says it has heat more how much targets across the territory. and this is the latest video published by these really are me. it claims these buildings were being used by him, us it and says it's trying to avoid civilian casualties. we are giving, besides, instructions to govern residents near from us centers of gravity urging them to

temporarily move away from the dinner that some us put them in. we're dropping leaflets with q r codes. that opens a met, guiding cousins to say for areas. in rough uh, a southern gaza. people tried to pull survivors from under the rubble. the claim is rarely, authorities told them it would be safe in the see. to look on the we were a sleep and say they told us were off or was a safe area. but a 20 past 10. they struck it, destroying all the block. there were children and women in martyrs. there is no safe area of neither rafa nor fine eunice nor gaza, nor there is a month ago. no, no for a whole front of me. one is for the israel expands it so probations and gaza.

the barely function hospitals, there are expecting more arrivals in the coming hours and days. well, i'm joined now by oliver mc turn. it needs the director of forward thinking he has been working on mediation and conflict resolution in the middle east for decades. supposed to be turning this good to have you with this you are in jerusalem at the moment. i'm speaking to rose is reading these and palestinians and assessing the chances for peace. there we say peace right now. what are you hearing as well, i think we always have to keep the whole piece, but at present i think the immediate situation is extremely through to me. this collective trauma that i think talked to transcend and spoke to people's understandably so. um, the events of october, the 7 followed by the as rated compartment of concept as truly traumatized people

and people are living in fear. so it's not an easy time to see be on the immediate and i think not square. israel, in particular at this moment, needs good friends who can speak to to them and can always learn them. that if you're in a traumatized state, you don't always see what's going to happen tomorrow or the consequences of your actions today. yeah, and of course you're, you're referring there to the expansion of this war now into the southern part of the gaza strip. you know, the territory. well, do you think that there is any chance that the is really army, can keep the civilians out of harm's way in the south better than they were able to do in the north. the risk of tends to families at being killed in order to perhaps get one target. that's the reality. i mean, this is

a very densely populated area. the homeless guy say is, i think it's all unrealistic to expect the population of 10 units now to move into an over populated area for asset because of route to receive main people from the north earlier on this floor. i think truly unless we have a ceasefire, we're going to see breaks or horrors. and remember the one that the objective so called familiar emanating how not one of the objectives is to free the rest of the hostages. no, i don't see that being a realistic proposition. if you're going to use military means to do it, i really can see that i think the remaining hostages will be a great risk. and i think that has to be said, well, what is realistic at this point in time? keeping channels of communication opened and how does that, how does that work?

when you've got a more going on? i think the only way, the only way you secure the release of hostages and the only way you can do it without really risk to them is through serious negotiations. what the guitar is of achieve so far, i greatly admire because it's being a torture. it's process, you know, where they've gone through 4 or 5 different channels to be able to reach a decision. so it's not possible to continue like that. i think we need complete sation of finance. the moment focus on the release of the hostages, focusing on preventing governance. it'd be coming up to the q amount of cherry catastrophe, where the dick send room attract the general secretary of the un. describe it as an ethnic catastrophe. i think it's likely to become worse and an environmental disaster. so i think really and truly, as i say,

is really needs good friends to say, look, the consequences of this will go far into the future. now is the time to stop recollect, and there's no security, i think found military means security, realistic purity, jordan security, has to come through a process, a political negotiation. and that's going to be inclusive in order for it to be durable. that's where we should be putting our focus, know enough people on both sides as last are nice. so i think now is the time to see beyond the heart of us to present and, and sort of difficult because it will be given the same. so trauma, people have the sense of fear people have, but we have defined a way to act as human beings. one to the other. mister maintaining you say that certainly is need friends and then they can talk to, then they will listen to the you're talking about the united states is,

do you think the united states is pressuring is real enough to pull back if need be? that's one question. the other question, what about a mouse? where are the, where are the peaceful forces? they are that it should perhaps be listening to. i was wondering if its america is telling me um privately, as well. you know, to hold it back. um, they're saying it publicly, but they've the same message is being transferred privately. it's clear that either that they're not hearing it or not listening to it because we wouldn't see the continuation of the violence on the levels we've witnessed in the last couple of days. moving on from that with a mouse, i think they to need friend stay to need to recognize what's happened on october. the 7th was deplorable and it has consequences and whatever explanation the games but the taking the killing of civilians,

the taking him civilian the hostages can never be justified. now there are no countries that accept and see a, just a resistance, but they built the tow truck 9 which as well and get the message across because it was going to move on in a political way. we have to have recognition of what went wrong. we john just dream that something would be different. we have to fully recognize now this to me is the 5th floor. i witness. it's, i think a clear indication that military action doesn't solve this problem. it has to be serious negotiation. and with the help of sides, both parties can be encouraged to into that process sooner than later. yeah, i think that there are many forces around the world that are rooting for piece just like you are mr. victoria and we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us tonight. oliver, i'm returning the director of a forward thinking. thank this is the

south american country of gone. it says it's remaining vigilant, especially along its border with been its way. look on sunday venezuelan voters approved the government's plan to lay claim to part of the on his territory. it's a border dispute that goes back more than a century, but this new chapter apparently has little to do with love of the land. and rather more to do with desire to take what is beneath it, celebrations, bro, accounts of venice. where does capital correct us? when the results were announced, president nicholas madura, his government has been aggressively promoting the votes for weeks. now he's claiming its being an overwhelming success. today the people spoke loudly and clearly we are going to start a new powerful phase because now we carry them in dates of the people. we carried the voice of the people the non binding referendum on sunday,

reportedly headed low turnouts. but it's what is what asked if i support that i could use claim on the dispute to tablet tree and it's a better level, but we expect to retrieve an area that for so long has been desolate as if it didn't have an owner. but now when you say, well it has said this is our so move ahead with the keyboard love they're going to do in 18. 99, an international tribunal transferred ownership of s the key both to great britain . after it left the region state under the control of britain's former colony, diana, for this, what is government saves the tree belongs to it. as it was within the board is during the earliest spanish who will correct a step to pitts campaign after oil was discovered. in that's the key bose of show walters in 2015 the guy on the government validate support his

president fund lead down plate the vote in venezuela saying that people who must have a tree have nothing to say, but he couldn't hide his indignation. but ignoring the heart of the principles of justice, it is unclear what madura his next move will be following the votes. but many inc, i on, i were afraid this could be the 1st step in an attempt to annex for region. well i'm joined now by feel guns and he's a senior analyst with the international crisis group in geo and specializes has been us when the politics. he's covered latin america as a journalist for more than 3 decades. it's good to have you with us this evening. lawmakers in the ana say that this is a text book case of an illegal annexation. how is been this way of justifying its

policy to it's public? i mean, how did the government convince voters to give their stamp of approval? well, venezuelans, um, almost all of them believe that the cable region does belong to that and they base it on an argument that the tribunal in the international tribunal, in $1899.00, the settled the boundary was actually fixed rate. the then as well, it wasn't present to that meeting, that the boundary was insight moved by the position with the colonial power at the time. and that is why that is entitled to every last square inch of the as a keep a read still, the dispute it is, it's over a region with rich mineral in oil reserves. and that's where you, as we know it has what the 3rd largest proven oil reserves in the world. so is oil . is that really fueling this dispute

will the discovery of large amounts of oil in, in guy, and he's waters including waters disputed by then his way of a sudden you raise the states over the us, the cable territory and right in reality, venezuela. under would chavez and, and under my daughter had kind of show this issue, they put it aside in the interest of international or international relations, particularly with the caribbean and with an online movement. and so the oil, the discovery of oil certainly makes it a hotter issue in that as well. on the other hand, i think the holding of the referendum has more to do with internal affairs with them politics. the fact that that my daughter needs this kind of nationalist or in order to try and improve his own standing with his electorate because he faces a very difficult presidential re election campaign next year. the united nations top court last friday ordered venezuela not to take any action,

but then his way to is ignoring the international court of justice. the way you see things there, do you think that there is a legal solution to this that would satisfy both countries or no, unfortunately, i don't think there is um, the, i think the international court of justice whatever its eventually. but it turns out to be a will be the last word. it's obligatory for both parties to respect the results as well as the words. but diana, of course, is in possession of the surgery and i think it would be very unwise. so that is whether to make any move in a military sense against the as a cable region, because it really doesn't have the diplomatic simple to do that. despite the fact that militarily is always in a much stronger position than, than it small neighbor. what was you said until what would be the worst case outcome in your opinion, if someone who knows this area and you know the political dynamics there. mean if

this does no go in the wrong direction, what would that look like? so i don't to, this is certainly not for the time being an attempt by that as well. so if it's a move in and take over the whole 16 regions, i'm a little more worried to down the road. as the election campaign you gather speed and my daughter probably finds himself a still mild in you know, unpopularity, that at some point it might prove expedient for, for him to best like create a bonus, good initial to with guy on the try. the same thing that he would try with the referendum really, which is to interrupt himself with the fly and get to get more public support behind to based on the notion of a nice to let. i mean, i don't think that would go very far, but certainly the problem with that kind of approach that kind of sca

a nation and flashes on the border is that nobody could really guarantee that it wouldn't get out of hand. yeah. yeah. and then there are clear examples of annexations and skirmishes at the border all over the board right now that we could point to feel gunston with the international crisis group. so we appreciate your time and your valuable insights tonight. thank you for your as delegates to the you in climate talks, discuss how the mitigate manmade climate change. ukraine is looking to hold russia accountable for environmental devastation calls by nearly 2 years of war. ukrainian prosecutors are building a landmark case against moscow, accusing it of carrying out war crimes against ukraine's environment. much of the country side there has been ruined by showing and man made flooding. and the worldwide populations designate so you know, the casualty of rushes, when you create

a black seed often washed up dead on the beach. it's one of hundreds that have been found so far. fix that suspect that so not activity of submarines disrupt the defects, own orientation system so badly that they start off. such environmental casualties are growing. yup, sure. cause that the problem, if we really count the damage that has been done to the environment, we see that in some cases it has reached the level or even exceeded the damage done to the infrastructure of it. but we sure what to do, but tickets of the 10, 1st of all has the environment in many ways funding already people was released, carbon dioxide and toxic smoke. i'm finding of mine's damaged for us and wildlife. the biggest single environmental disaster of this for the destruction of the cutoff, cut them in southern ukraine. it flooded hundreds of square culum. it is destroying not only the livelihoods of thousands of people, but also large forests and metro costs. ukraine wants to prosecute damage to the

environment as a war, crime in october organize the conference to help is to take the grant department as us sending these with an environmental experts to take stock of the damage the noise. these people must be sent to. they need to be funded and we need to measure what can be measured. we won't be able to record every thing, but an estimate will certainly be possible. international law does recognize environmental destruction as war crime. but no international court has a very rude and such a case. crane is entering you the good territory land. when we start with that, we have to present an invoice to the occupier. for every inch of destroyed ukrainian gland. aggressors around the world need to understand the words that costly and that the environment also has its price. looking that there's my, i swear to the ukraine says 2900 cases of environmental war crimes have been

registered so far. i'm counting every day that war does new damage to the environment. a hong kong court has once again, given china is highly indebted, real estate group every grand, more time to organize the restructuring plant. the courts to postpone legal proceedings until january 29th of next year. the real estate giant now has more time to gain backing forwards, restructuring plant. last year, a creditor suit ever granted the fund concord to begin the process of liquidation. but the case has dragged on by parties tried to broker a deal outside a court. for grant's troubles have become a symbol of the property crisis. real estate prices in china. experts fear the fall of the company could trigger massive economic shock wage withholding $300000000000.00 in liabilities. epigrams that one was worried, chinese authorities with the company teetering on the verge of collapse,
