8:01 am
dealing with stress on ukraine's front lines team is now deploying psychologists to the boston field to keep its troops fit to fight in those for the floods that hit back in san just over a year ago. wiped out what list whole this families had. we look at how the recently established climate change loss of damaged funds could help them rebuild their lives the time and youtube is making and thank you for being with us. israel says that its troops have entered the southern garza's largest city. the military says its forces have now reached the heart of han eunice, and have the city surrounded following what it describes as the most intense day of slicing. so far, israel says it has expanded its offensive into southern gaza to illuminate hamas,
8:02 am
which is classified as a terrorist group by many countries speaking on choose day nice as well as prime minister benjamin netanyahu said his country's forces have sofa killed around hoff of hamas come on those in the gaza strip. well, how many, most of you know a fight is are expanding the ground operation against thomas in every place industry, including the south. i will show him tonight. we operate today with a massive for some of our that'd be fun. you want the circuit, hon, eunice, some of that. but you, by you, the sure can to bother you. we besiege both of them, a little mcgee, but there is no place beyond our reach. we took control of the general security amount of how much time you mom exemption our brave soldiers are fighting powerfully against the kid is not in trouble. they are conducting close quarters. battle this assume they are eliminating terrace around the clock when we have the behind and every battle. then while you know. meanwhile, the world health organization says the security situation and gaza is guessing was
8:03 am
by the hour, as is really troops, storm, con eunice and pursuits of hamas. there's little hope for the hundreds of thousands of palestinian civilians who shop in the crossfire. 10 cities. i'm now will come inside and come eunice. many palestinians set up a camp in the city of to, for the and gets really strikes and not on golf zone. but being here hasn't been safe either. and it's getting worse. it's even difficult for people to speak safely to report the popular the and the dead of finding out outside the moles. the oh good. all the out of one is looking on and cannot stop them not send the
8:04 am
half day done. why are they being killed? what crime that they committed to die the step the, the market is really the tree has released footage that it saves shows its fighters pushing deeper into southern gall them. but if she shoot me, i mean 60 days since the beginning of the law, offices of surrounding con eunice in southern casa, we are operating with professionalism clearing the population ahead of time from the combat areas is the lack of what gods have been told to move for the south to russell, what awaits them there is molten cities and the lone queue to get drinking water. and i'm not going to get the thing about the only decently nation planned and rascal that that is providing inhabitants with clean water. it's powered by solar energy and when in winter, so if that stops and we will not be able to provide people with any water and i
8:05 am
haven't got enough. and then that's a little of my the united nations sees more than 80 percent of golf. those population have been driven from the homes and space on the small coastal strip is running out. many simply don't know where they can find refuge. enjoying me now from boys marina. marilyn and military analyst and research fellow at the defense studies department at kings college london. welcome marina is really full, says said yes to day they've been engaged in the heaviest day of fighting since the stats of the military operation. and gaza, is this a new phase of as well as military operation that we're seeing here? a good morning on your yes, it is a new face after the cease fire or off or is it set? does the end of see this? he's fire is a military operation, has to be recalibrated then now, it seems like the noise and parts of the city is under control and clear. it's so this new phase, even more destructive than the previous one is about one of the strongholds of,
8:06 am
from us, according to the east ro side, which is con eunice. and so is the operation here is very similar to wasn't seen was a guy is a city a, namely this, the troops are trying to surround and control the area control access to the city. is, is say that this is even more disruptive then the 1st phase we know is, riley force is all now in the house of hon. you next. can you give us a sense of what facing and in such a dense an area would be, would be like not to mention the number of civilians who reflect that from the knolls. as it is an absolute nightmare for any military to fight in urban fight against a force that doesn't wear any insignia. so essentially you don't know who the enemy is and you have a lot of civilians. as you correctly stated, they are so the risk of collateral damage or shooting the wrong person is very high
8:07 am
. and israel try to get the civilian side. but the problem is, of course, where it is a go. and so they have now to operate the monkey civilians going literally house by house trying to clear it because her mazda also enjoys very expensive tunnel network, which is believed to be beneath, on eunice. and so this is a very important stronghold for home off, and this will be very difficult because how much will be using the tunnels and is able to surprise the through the military at any point. therefore, the each rally molar tree is trying to eliminate as many tools as possible, but it's not a very precise science in the sense that they are trying to bomb the tunnels. on the one hand, on the other hand, they are filling them with liquid explosive. so it's, it's a very cumbersome operation which carries a very big humanitarian risk. i mean,
8:08 am
speaking of the tunnels, we've been hearing reports, the israel is considering flooding the how much tunnels and running on the gaza with see was, i mean, is this something that's like cnn? and what do we know about the idea of strategy for the coming days? going forward. i know there are indeed considerations to use see water to floods the tunnels. now the us hasn't clearly positioned itself towards this idea. it's still not clear what is this operation will be conducted or not. on the one hand, you have to humanitarian considerations and we have heard in the report how little drinking water is opposed to unions have and that's good for us or undermine water supply. if the idea for to use a strategy to florida titles and the as a problem is the luxury because nobody knows the extent of the tunnels and water
8:09 am
fact see water will have on them was a strategy will work. so the communitarian risk is huge and you don't know if you will get a military advantage from using that. so i assume. com, but the engineers will be busy um, trying different technologies and how to best literally slot out some us and possibly the hostages because they're also hostages. somewhere in those panels about 100 of them. so you are risking killing the hostages, which was of course, and damage is ris reputation on the international stage. so it is quite a tricky operation. i don't know if they are going to go ahead, was it? we'll proceed further with liquid explosives and compartments during the thank so much for that analysis, that's marina moran from king's college london. thank you so much. his look at some of the other stories making news around the world today and rescue
8:10 am
is in indonesia. i have recovered the remains of 10 more, climb is killed in a volcanic eruption. this takes the official number of the 22 emergency team say 75, climb as were on the morrow, p. okay, no. when it a rough to 2 days ago, a and a russian not hillary strike on the southern ukrainian city of his son has killed at least 2 people as well sir, as he's released this was it showing the optimal, including crates is caused by the shelling out rushes will on ukraine is in its 22nd month now, and it is showing no sign of lessing up the front lines as barely moved in months. it's still stretches across southern and east and ukraine. keeps hopes of an efficient counter offensive. have been tasked with troops making only limited gains through russians lines, the training and soldiers on the front lines. the stress is on relenting, on the on a has now started deploying psychologists to the battlefield,
8:11 am
to help troops cope w's, mateo spelling. i visited one therapy session and you cranes dumbass sizes to the soldiers on the training grounds behind the front lines. it's not just fighting on the schedule today right here on the shooting range, for lack of course, keep the big psychologist, test scheduling, session on mental health. let me look on that. it gives us the soldiers practice fighting here. so the nervous system is already had an elevated excitement level imaging and that always has and that is a good environment to train certain habits with the money. chelsea, mostly the sticker of the mileage. cool. one last shot, fired. then the unit moves to a spot of the shooting range for some physical moves. the item is that i thought a little bit more. let's do a few exercises of self regulation. midland couple jump lightly on the spot and
8:12 am
shake your body. just move and relax your body unless you every brigade in the ukranian army is supposed to have a psychological support that would be made to stand it. many of the posts have remained unfilled. there are many specialist in the country who coffee was a practicing psychiatrist and therapist before the war. now you have so just deal with exhaustion and stress the existing for a long exhale comes down the nervous system. it tells the body that it's time to relax and then everything is fine over to monday, when i had kind of good tags, i found that breathing exercises really helped you feel, and inexplicable inflicts of stress estimate. you don't understand what's happening . but when you manage to brief calmly passes or, or even held ex help, who went back to fighting the, let's say, the cost of the started working with the army in 2014,
8:13 am
when he was rehabilitating traumatized soldiers as a return to civil law. he does offer individual sessions here, but it's very different from what you did before in your way of club. i had this or could have buds, look it up. so if you have thought about that, about the 2 young men use, i don't work here as a trauma therapist, i'm you think if i don't dig out trauma as to why to hospital some of the p t s, the symptoms are actually just combat habits to the middle of waiting is a sudden rise of stress. maybe it's excessive vigilance is even nightmares or superficial sleep. these help you not to forget where you are. they might be painful, but they also motivate you most. but i'll do that. you have to be in the box here is a mr. have the so just to continue to function to give them as you put the resources to step below the water, soft acceptance of the program. batteries. when it's google, munitions, not a movie. we don't receive out jump emotionally suitable to me. we
8:14 am
just fight to save. you know, this is of war. everybody need support. all your many high, their emotions. they say that they're not afraid so, so you put in the end where humans, you can hide this emotions forever and the get the get you know, many of them would have to deal with their trauma off to the low. for now, their task is to carry on i cannot stop now to the w special correspondent, i mean a c who is in t. hi, i'm in. so a very clear picture. the of the, the stress that the soldiers on the front line on the can you give us a sense of the situation at the front line right now of the law for a year. now it's been a bloody work but was very little to show for it. about 1500 square kilometers have changed hands in the past year to give you an idea of how small it is about the size of los angeles. but meanwhile, thousands and thousands of people on both sides soldiers have been dying. so it's
8:15 am
a very bleak picture. they are, the russian efforts have been focusing on places like of div ca, that's in don't yet. not so far from bach mood, if you remember at the beginning of last year, that was very bloody campaign and they're still fighting to go going on there right now. so that tells you a lot about how little frontline has moved over the past year. ukrainian efforts are large and focused in the south on here so, and they've made some progress there. crossing the deep real river into rushing controlled territory, but they've described it soldiers there as hell on earth. something of a day situation crossing a body of water into hospital territory where they're constantly under fire russians throwing everything in the at them, including shells, motors and even flame throwers. and they've only captured a few square kilometers there. so really a big picture of that represents what's happening all across the frontline. entrenched, nothing much happening,
8:16 am
but thousands and thousands of people dying. okay. now we know that there of the pay is that the us government funding fee ukraine might soon run out how worried all ukrainians the west and support financial support may be waiting. let's be clear. the us will never run out of money to support ukraine with money in weapons. it's the world's only superpower. it can physically do that and definitely uh, but what the white house is talking about is money that was approved before the war between israel come us. that is a key factor here. ukrainians know it ever since october 7th, the news this ship it towards israel's how much more. and that's a very big problem for ukraine. a coming from the united states of republicans who are historically very pro, is real, have had mixed feelings about supporting ukraine, mixed feelings about spending money in general. and they said that they would
8:17 am
approve more aid to ukraine. but then these tied into political issues, domestic political issues, so the ukrainians are very aware that there's a lot of money being put into the question that wasn't being put in the question for. and also let's be clear. ukraine has known from the beginning, but it's, they just keep getting the same amount of a they've been getting. uh, since the rest of it invaded their country on october, on february 24th 2022. then they will not be able to push russia out of their territory. they need more weapons and it's really unlikely they're going to get that. and the koreans are aware of that. and it's quite a depressing picture from many people here. i mean, thanks so much the update. that's the w special correspondent. i mean e says in keith, thank you. now industrialized countries have pledged around hoff, a 1000000000 us dollars to help the world's most vulnerable nations cope with the
8:18 am
impacts of climate change, an agreement on the new loss and damage from the 1st day of the cop 28 climate conference was met with a standing ovation. the money will help pay for damage caused by slow onset as often as things like rising sea levels on the extreme weather events, heavy rain flooding, droughts and wall tires. but many say the money pledged is simply not enough impact us down. for example, families are still struggling off to deadly floods made was by climate change swept through send provence in mid 2022 or do i need to do to godaddy? and to about these award this from me, it's most space. so it's not a very tight and not really need to shift, but it school is big enough for 20 to a year to work with my lives and this month house with her husband, her 2 children and several other relatives. she was 8 months pregnant when they had
8:19 am
to run for the life last year. feeling the flooding that hit their village. the waters left her home in the southern sense, robbins and dated for months. their life stock, a source of food and income on baptist. even though they are back in their home and that trying to make ends meet, the family hasn't fully recovered panic and it wouldn't, they were struggling to get food, even though. yeah, my husband can find work out there. so sometimes we can only afford to feed the children. we adults go to bed hungry. when we have the money, we buy some potatoes to feed the children. this period was one of the worst effected, the waters destroyed 4000000 acres. a factory goes to the land to i've bought this done. large parts spins gone, be worked. that's left many farming communities without food and
8:20 am
a sustainable source of income. local 8 drops had stepped in, and they're working with them in most in need. teaching them to farm selma has been trained to grow her own vegetables on a small piece of land. she manages to grow enough to feed her children and also some extra produce to make some money. what time all the time, but i'm glad we survived the flood. so the we lost a lot of her live stock, 12 goats and 2 goes we became poor. we couldn't buy enough vegetables to feed the whole family. my children were always getting sick. now i'm able to feed my children properly, the deals, but the slope at the dimensions are only a tiny fraction of what is needed. the buckets on the government sees it can not
8:21 am
provide large skid has. it was in one of the worst economic dresses in the country's history. when the flats hit, they were the worst on the car and have been directly linked to climate change. even though focused on image less than one percent of cooper, greenhouse gases. if people are suffering that direct consequences, that's why the implementation of federal damage fund at the un climate conference call 20. it offers some hip put these communities 6 months until the funding is released. millions will have to survive on their own. and decently assignment correspondent louise osborne joins me here in the studio for more. hi louise. we just sold the massive impact that the flooding had on people in, in pakistan. what specifically is making it so difficult now to,
8:22 am
to get life back to normal? i mean, these countries are incredibly vulnerable, so not only are they valuable to the impacts of climate change that they've done little to contribute to in terms of funding of fossil fuels. but they are also incredibly vulnerable when it comes to the infrastructure that they already have in place. these are developing countries that are still building up and so are not able to cope with the kind of, you know, delegations of water that we store. for example, with that, but those flooding, the extraordinary flooding was an extraordinary and i mean, thought flooding low cost around $40000000000.00 that was estimated by the pac study government. and so, you know, they just need help and, and money to be able to deal with those kinds of impacts that they're saying. so a huge need for help. let's talk about this lesson damage fund that's been struck a this is called the 28 climate conference. how significant potentially is that to
8:23 am
help people, for example, in the situation that we've just seen. i mean, it's really significant. island states have been bustling to have some kind of less than damage funds for the last 30 years. they obviously want money to help with the rising sea levels that are impacting their coastal communities. and this fund was set to or announce last year. and this year already um its been adopted the recommendations for it has been adopted. that was a huge step forward. and i think a big surprise for a lot of experts definitely for us as well. i'm and, and that's already through. so that is a big step forward. um, but had thought it would take years to set up, but it looks like it could be a lot sooner than that. okay, so, but, but let's put into perspective here, what it actually means for people affected by, by climate change, by extreme weather buttons made was by the changing climate. i mean, when will they actually see this money that's been pledged so far?
8:24 am
so it's really hard to know, you know, they're still at the beginning, there is supposed to be a board that a such help that will assess the kinds of damages. but does last as our core thing that will then see that the money is made to or sent to the countries that need it . but the problem is, is that the money is still not even slightly enough. i mean, as we helped before, it's about half a 1000000000 that has been pledged so far. less than damage is or estimated to, to cost around tougher trillion by 2030 every year in developing countries of learning. so, you know, if this is a dropped in the bucket in, in terms of what they're actually going to need. but, you know, experts have said it's a good step forward. it's a show of good, well, but there needs to be more done. suddenly, the w assignment correspondent louise osborne. thank you so much for that update.
8:25 am
now, a british research team has cross pulse with the world's biggest iceberg. scientists from the british and outtakes of a became the 1st to see. i'm film a $23.00 a which rises 400 meters above the surface of the sea. they will also able to test the waters around it to monitor the effects of climate change on the ocean. it extends as far as the i can see, the iceberg. a 23 a is estimated to be more than 3 times the size of new york city, or twice as big as greater london off to being fixed in position for some to to use . the iceberg broke free last month. scientists on board or research ship located near the tip of the antarctic peninsula that one has on the we are investigating how nutrients stored in the ice released into the ocean when the ice melts. and
