palestinians in gauze on in the west bank. people say it is the least they can do that sentiment. it goes here to introduce to them. kindest indians have close shop and gone on strikes to show that i support some of the realities enclosure. seen again in 11 on. yeah, i know they all, this is the day in solidarity with the palestinian people because there's nothing we can do but seriously stand in solver there. see with them via financially, psychologically or socially. and how is the now you the solid devotee this because is against, is rarely as strikes pounding gauze a day of to day. so far from us around has ministry speaks of more than 18000 people can i was watching the news and all of
8:03 am
a sudden i feel every thing k been on top of me. the children assessing. i couldn't see the thing, the many among the dead. and wounded children the river, a large number of children who arrived with amputations to the upper and lower limits. the number of boxes are in the 10s. they've been sent to the monitors tense . they're still a number of them beneath the rubble at my goals and camp and other areas in the central province, american israel saves that is targeting him off infrastructure to ensure that a ton of attack like the one on october 7 can never happen again. prime minister benjamin netanyahu claims many how most spite those have some render to the is randy. all mean seen in this with you may say that it is for how much money from
8:04 am
the beginning of the end. that's why i'm the dental. how many people we show like i spoke with our special corresponded abraham in jerusalem. she told me more about israel's plans to start a new inspection. so of a going into casa cam shalom crossing, which was actually prior to the war, responsible for about 60 percent of all the in the goods coming in and out of the gaza strip has been closed completely since october, 7th. and so far for a to go through the rough crossing a it between gaza and egypt it, it has to still be inspected by israel. because even though his real maintains it does not occupies the guy's a strip and that it has withdrawn since 2005, it's still maintains, according to the un effective security control. so nothing can go in the strip without israel's permission. and so the commercial i'm crossing will be open for inspection as an additional spot to inspect goods and be approved by israel before
8:05 am
they can then be routed to go in through egypt the impact. so it will certainly, you know, levy the bottleneck that has a, that is an age group say has, is now happening in the china. but at the same time we're again talking just about inspection is real, still maintains that no aid will be coming directly from israel into gaza. and of course, they're the logistical challenges of distributing that age effectively, that having to be secure within the guise of strip again can not be emphasized enough. one of the most densely populated spots on earth for the under bombing from air since 2 months more than 2 months and with an ongoing ground operation. 90 percent of the guys districts population has been displaced. virtually everybody there is in desperate need of humanitarian aid. so the challenges still, you know, will still continue,
8:06 am
but at least there is that hope on the horizon with the inspection bottlenecks. you know, hopefully being slightly alleviated in the coming days. that was our special correspond to abraham. there in jerusalem. the funding in gaza is being closely watched by israel's era of neighbors, though relations with countries like syria or 11 on maybe hostile. there has been a long slow fall, the 1st to establish diplomatic ties with egypt, israel's neighbor to the south, the to a fault, several better wars, but in 1979 with us mediation, they signed a peace treaty, and egypt became the 1st aram country to recognize israel's right to exist. it's one of israel's most strategically vital allies, especially when it comes to gaza. egypt helps israel and forces blockade and coordinates on security. in 1994 jordan israel's neighbor to the east side, the peace treaty as well. in 2020 is real science agreements,
8:07 am
also known as the abraham accords with the united arab emirates. and by raid with a blessing of the middle east, powerhouse saudi arabia. those were later followed by normalization agreements with morocco and sudan in 2021. the biggest win for israel would be normalizing relations with saudi arabia. the u. s. has been encouraging that to, to engage and tox, one benefit for the saudis, as well as for other gulf states, they would gain and ally against arch rival iran, which is one of a mazda, is prime sponsors secret negotiations for reportedly going on. and then came home officers, terror attack on october 7th, how much described the impending saturday is really diplomatic agreement as one of its main reasons for the assault. now, no matter how the war ends, it's difficult to see a pass for is real making major diplomatic progress in the region without some kind of sustainable long term solution for the palestinians. now to the comp
8:08 am
$28.00 summit in dubai and climate advocates or warning that there could that the, the whole summit could be on the verge of failure because of disagreements over the last draft text where all references to a phase out of fossil fuels have now been deleted instead of the most recent version of the draft tax calls for a reduction of fossil fuels seen as a concession to oil producing states and including russia and saudi arabia. the us and you have both rejected the revised draft saying it doesn't go far enough. the conference is due to end today, but could be extended to port i just wanted or germany is one of the countries that has criticize the draft agreement for watering down its wording on fossil fuels. here's what for administer, and the bad luck at the say, this text is clearly insufficient and disappointing. the text is far away from what
8:09 am
the world needs for 20 points. so as we, as a european union, outstanding for, for you and assessable energy for, or in this road, we cannot support these text dw corresponded julia so daily is in do by julia. several countries say they cannot support the text in its current form. what are the main objections of the? well, the lack of wording on a fit, complete phase out of fossil fuels is obviously a big issues for groups of countries like the e u, but also some of the most vulnerable countries to climate change. like some of the small island nations and the term used in the current draft tax reduction is clearly not enough for them, but also the timeline for this reduction pointing to 2050. that is very much in the long term, and they want to see more concrete pads towards
8:10 am
a phase out of fossil fuels closer to where we stand now. but also the wording itself in the draft, they say, is completely noncommittal. there are a lot of sentences that use the word countries could enact measures to fight climate change and they say this leads to a lot of freedom movements for countries. so not really commit to taking on any measures, but also wording on coal. coal is the most polluting fossil fuel that we see in the world. and according to this draft, we are again not seeing a complete phase out of coal, but just a reduction. and the draft also sees the possibility to continue to construct new coal power plants. if they manage to reduce their emissions and this is something that the countries like the e u r many others, others find absolutely unacceptable. scientists say our whole eco system may collapse if we don't, we know ourselves off fossil fuels,
8:11 am
given that why are some countries against phasing them out? so we have uh, oil producing countries like saudi arabia, for example, or gas producing countries like russia or a ron. they do not want to stop selling fossil fuels because they are a strong base for their economy. and they don't even want a reduction of them in the tech. so they're really pushing back then we have other countries, for example, india, but also many countries from the least least developed countries group. they don't produce fossil fuels, but they use them to power their energy system and their electrical grid. they use coal, they use oil, and they also say we cannot keep our country going and economic development going. if we do not use these fossil fuels, they also say some of them at least that they wants to push forward with the transformation of their energy systems towards more renewable energy use. but there is a not, not enough funding in this tax coming from the most develop industrialized countries
8:12 am
to support them in that transformation. now i understand that representatives, they're due by our back at the negotiating table. julia will, can we expect a last minute agreements? well, according to the goal in the plan of the you a presidency of the cop this year, right now, we already should have been finished with with assigned agreements. but we are far from that. since many countries find the current text really bad, there is still a lot of work to be done on their front to try to bring back in the kind of language and wording they want to see. and we also have to remember that agreeing here at cop has to be a consensus based decision. all countries up to almost 200 countries have to all agree on the final text. and given the big disagreements and the big difference is that we see here right now that could really take some time. julia,
8:13 am
thank you very much. that was our correspondent, julia so that the in dubai let's take a look at a few other stories making headlines around the world today. ukraine's president below them is wednesday, has called on the us to continue its military aid to his country. so landscape has travelled to washington and is due to meet present jo button later on today. the latest us aid package for ukraine is in danger of failing due to opposition from republicans in congress. allies of russian opposition, politician alexia bony. say he has been removed from the prison colony where he had been imprisoned. of all these lawyers have been unable to contact him for almost a week. his current whereabouts are known as a fear he has been moved to a harsher penal colony. ready the turkish football federation has indefinitely suspended all league games. after a top club official attacked a referee,

8:15 am
democracy, we've won freedom. we've won back our beloved poland to squeeze prime minister from 2007 to 2014. he left polish politics to take on the presidency of the european council, which he held until $3019.00 william ties with a you have been central to his election campaign that those run to the right wing populist law and just as potty relations between was sore and brussels of salad, the you, his voice concerned over the rule of law and for those funds you marked for poland . k election promises from 26 coalition have included reversing policies that undermine the independence of poland, courts and media. for brussels to excuse a welcome and familiar face almost 10 years ago. who in my 1st speech of the president of the council, i said that too,
8:16 am
i came to brussels with a strong sense of purpose. and i think i can repeat these words also. today, this, this purpose today is to rebuild the position of my country in europe and to strengthen that you as a whole to school laid a broad coalition that has found common ground in ousting the conservative government. policy. promises include introducing a bill on same sex, civil partnerships, and relaxing some of europe's most restrictive abortion laws. but to school faith, vocal opposition, president andre duda was the law and just as potty candidates when he 1st one office due to could use his visa or to stole legislative reforms until the end of his time at the next presidential election in 2025, impala ment, law. injustice is still the biggest single party and they've used the last weeks in

8:19 am
european cards. concrete is which criticized the violation of some sort of a in poland. so tasks, the task huge task is to unplug this money. many people all over the country are waiting for this because many projects cash has to be passive or stop because of the lack of this money. so this is one of the more most important tasks you mentioned that the outgoing government was quite euro skeptic to us. meanwhile, is a former president of the european council. what place will poland have in the you with him in charge? yes, the strength and ties with the european union is one of the office most important goals. of course. um, poland is one of the biggest countries in the european union. and in the last 20 years they are being member membership. it has become huge amounts of money for
