the manuscript. thanks so much for joining us. back as don has hits alleged to millison hyde outs, inside iran, in a series of retaliatory as strikes as on the about says it targeted bases of a below cheese set persists. now, iran had earlier attacked what it called terrorist targets in pakistan on each side is accusing the of the hovering set persist faces and the attacks of res, tensions between pakistan and neighboring iran villagers assessing the damage. this footage appears to show the aftermath of the pakistani strike on the rounds border region. your ran in state medias say at least 9 people were killed there on thursday. is lama but has confirmed carried out the attacks.

i this morning, focused on and it took a series of highly coordinated and specifically targeted precision. military strikes against detritus, towing high adults and says donald, but it was just on probing all feet on a number of total risk or killed during the intelligence space to oppression the strikes in the ran in border region offices down in baluchistan. our a response to a runs attacks inside pac is down early this week. take run, said he to separate his group, which threatens its security, us history. it has a spot, none of the nationals as a friendly and brotherly country. of fact, it's done with targeted by themselves and drones of iran. there is this group id on the so called gish out of which is an iranian terrorist group ticket and they have taken shelter in some provinces. but that inside pack is done as mental

a tip i purchased on that as you did on the exchange of strikes has sparked a diplomatic crisis. islam about we called it some fast so they were to run and stopped to use a rainy encounter. part from returning to pack has done like his down scared ticket prime minister and bar all hot cut car cut shorts. his visit to the world economic forum and davos is advanced on fold. regional powers have ers to come from both sides. both gave me that off as a sort of our region does not need more problems and conflicts. we see that the war in gaza unfortunately escalates regional tensions. we sold this tension reflected in 11 on yeah, syria, iraq, young and the persian gulf and of the red sea. in addition to all this, unfortunately, we have been closely following developments between pakistan and iran over the last 2 days with consent approval. i get it submitted today, and it said that you all can, that's how it can be viewed as well. officials trade accusations protests or is

have taken to the streets of islam about to denounce the strikes on pakistan's territory. there. say an attack in nuclear arms buck is done, would be dangerous for the whole world. and we can get more on this. i speaking to the full amount for administer of pakistan who narrow bonnie har. welcome to dw ms. ross. thank you so much for your time. can i ask you, do you think pockets done to the right thing and responding to iran strike? or i just suddenly say around to do the keys. stupid wrong thing. as far as i don't think by the time has been the options, i'm not gonna go, i'm gonna try it out and speak with me. i think when you know, we all walk by the establish law, we look under the international, the board. well, according to the center is the concept of civility and control of what you are, what is what you got to put the name. and now here's a neighbor with,

with which we have $900.00. normally just the border and the list is on the list or introduce the range bar including going to turn them does know, you know, the you doing uh, for the commissions and all of this was the ongoing of despite the big and then the explanation given. so that's what, that's not a small into your godaddy. imagine from that being inside, you get it as a whole. we thought there was somebody over there and you'd like to limit or our kids to children, but it just us protecting on us and security. it doesn't work that way of focused on your, on what's the concerns about what has been happening from the other side of the border. you have made those mechanisms rule, but we didn't already discussed but to find a solution for that. so me, i think what happened yesterday, it was a reaction to domestic combustion. this domestic demand for reaction, but you don't do what was happening, but in the wrong. unfortunately,

iran decided drug office on the, to the theater, which i hope is not the biggest fusion i see. and i can only quote, the address 90 the slide under the form it says. and so do you think we just going to be and do we need to come back to the magic thoughts? as you say, there is cooperation between practiced on air in the wrong day on neighbors and iran carried out the striking practice done just hours off of the rainy and foreign minister met talk of stones. can i take a prime minister in dev us? what does the say about the level of trust between the 2 countries? as you know, i think the creator of distrust that has been created by this computer unprecedented . the goal interests not strive, but you're on is going to be around the big one and a some are a member of the buckets on people, spite the other part to use the vision and others uses. and by the time who has

invested deeply in, in, in building trust between focused on the wrong to be able to look at the support of terrorism as appointments for it. and be able to do some of it with a common strategy on this destructive going to be very, very deep and, and yes or no, i'm sorry, i'm sorry to interrupt, but i did want to mention i'm in the radiance a cold for action to be taken against millicent groups or pricing on the border for years. why didn't practiced on take action? as i thought to give you the long list of action that the sun has deepened as i can only give you the wrong midst of i've seen that you're wrong perhaps. and not taking a good, but not just on debrief and on the high adults, didn't you done these things going to happen on the under counterterrorism. died of something you're getting some success. sometimes you get some something you take the right, we have ensured them and we have that during the time that we were in dublin with

all the new stuff. i pretty much just on the box and came up with the robust mechanism with the foot board a b as each other's concerns. and this mechanism was indeed, i don't give you the details of that, but what time that's nothing uh to the nation. the radius of dr. defeats coming to that i, i just think that under the, if these are really dense relations between the sun perhaps not justified, but part us understand. this is a dime, as you mentioned, it says the bottom, this will be on demand for the pond together or brandon is through a process on that same dimension and nothing about the concerns of i told us about there is nothing but nothing before that student before the battle, so it's rather unique, it's unique and explainable as to why this would suddenly something to see it. and this one's president didn't this much of, you know,

the possibility of severely percussion. me. why? so give us fire. if we could talk about the time a having practiced on right now is facing a political and economic and a security crisis. of course, the country is also heading towards a controversial election. i mean, can pakistan on a ford an escalation with a ron right now? a book, i think every country would like, i mean, certainly focus on for the last many decades has been crying out loud. for these most ability. you have to try it on the best results every new. but i, i bought this on is going to do as much of a political price is, i guess, as they get a fund fee, which is going to an election process, we are, as, you know, in an election process the scheduled to be held on is on february, but so many of the country within the draft because both this is the only entity that has the right to use violence,

so to speak or do minutes reaction or any other action isn't going to be with us of entity. not if we start the guy this about it, and the board is indeed starting to become dentist about this one mechanism upset defense that you d. s that also this, this guy has nothing. this is, but do you know who is in this order? if you start doing that, if you start playing with that, there is no end to it, right? because they bought this on. so if you want to use the noisy the engine by the radians office on that. absolutely right. but a ducking elements which are separate just which way you can think of a new site, a good spot to some yeah. evidence in terms of use the who happens to be focused on ideas, right. and i'll give you what these points are and how you're on. so this is our best, let's do. we did it by 2 different magic tennis. and these things are best to be funky uses. all of these things can only be taken care of and trust a bit nothing to create the just for a new side across the board. is he not rabbani caught pack

a sounds full month for administer. i'd like to thank you so much for speaking to us. today, thank you for your time. for now, the is riley president, the isaac hutsel and has called iran an evil empire at the root of tensions in the middle east. speaking of the world economic forum and dabble, switzerland had folk said that homage was armed and financed by tyrone iran was using homos. he said to the rail stability, you know, certainly in the region, but in the entire world there on uh before i aust correspondence in douglas, ben cecilia and what the reaction to help folks comments was in double as a standing ovation. and you had the congress center, but a very different picture online as i was following the speech here from my hotel, many uses a angry cooling for the media to enter this one. use that questioning why

a posting an official didn't follow these riley president's speech, but had sold said his nation is still in shock from the barbarism ads sat ism of the october 7 attacks. he said, how much is just one element of what he called the empire, or the evil driven by a round, with its proxies across the region, spending billions on preventing pace. now billions have also been poured into the homeless organizations tunnel network at a city of tara, as isaac had. so put it built on the gaza and one is way the businessman put it to me last night. why aren't those tunnels being used by the homeless militants not ready to launch their attacks? they a surprise attacks on these rarely offensive, but to protect their own citizens to protect the civilians. the hundreds of thousands who had left their up in the open in an active was all to evacuate them

from the region altogether. now, when it comes to age for the civilians heads, hope says these right, these now have the capacity to scan some full 100 trucks of humanitarian a to date, but puts the blame on the organization of the board for only a maximum of 300 getting through a day at the bow, but he says he wants to enable a better future for his palestinian naples because as the hostages need to be released and normalization of relations needs to be reached. and a safety guaranteed needs to be made to the nation of israel. then the world economic forum seems to be an extremely political event this year, and there's also a lot of discussion that isn't there about the possibility of donald trump returning to the white house to see if yes, trump is a hot topic here. that's for sure. i was at a dinner last night where there were a lot of rumbles in the crowd when one senior advanced to say that

a trump return is a possibility of very high probability and said that that would mean a cut in 8 to ukraine. something that the russian president vladimir putin has been waiting out for that very prospect. he also said it would mean that climate change developing is when it comes to the spending here in davosto and a huge sum spent on new technologies and renewables that would come to know to a stop but or a standstill. but could even be, the brakes would be put on certainly, and as far as the future goes, with china, the top 2 economies in the world, the us in china, when you trade war could be spot by trump administration when it comes to more terrorists. now, the french president said last night in memo, my quote that we can't afford increased tensions at a time of increased conflict. and a panel this afternoon is looking at how to prepare for

a republican administration. the heritage foundation of conservative research institute is driving a $22000000.00 drive, or if it's over operation to train up stuff is on how to react to a republican administration and physician endeavors. thanks so much for bringing us up to date. thanks. and now a shipment of medicine has arrived in gauze are intended is randy hostages, held by hum us along with fresh shade full of the population and from help to arrange the deal between israel and the millis group. hum us, which is deemed a terrorist group by multiple countries. meanwhile, the home us run health ministry says fresh is really asked, likes as killed thousands of old people over the last 24 hours, including at least 16 people in one strike on a house in russia. united nations says golf is remaining, hospitals are overwhelmed by the number of casualties shown.

casey is an emergency medical team coordination with the world health organization, the w h o, he just returned to new york off the 5 weeks and gaza, where he was responsible for coordinating supplies and stuff to garza's hospitals. show him. thanks so much for joining us today. if you have had the access that you have had since this will began, can you describe what you witnessed and goals are in the last weeks? thanks for having me. i've seen a couple of things happening. one is the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding with very large scale displacement over 85 percent of the population displaced obviously as an enormous number of casualties. and at the same time, from a health perspective, watching the health system collapse in favor at a very rapid pace. so hospitals being forced to close reduced to the most minimal services alongside this increase in casualties. and it's brendan infectious

diseases and the normal care that people need the pregnant women who need dental care, the people who require kidney dialysis. so it's a, it's a really terrible situation where we see a huge level of suffering and a huge level of need and a quickly reducing capacity to meet those needs. i know that you've looks and in a variety of was owns before. is the situation in gaza compared to what you've seen in other places particularly difficult it's difficult to compare, you know, misery in one place to missouri and another. but there, what i've seen in in gaza is an enormous level of destruction, particularly in the north. i visited bows us 3 times during my time there were most buildings are destroyed in some just some areas of the city are actually unrecognizable even to locals. we've seen a huge number of casualties in

a short period of time. many of them children and women and 70 percent of children and women, and a very rapid displacement of almost the entire population including my own colleagues who had to flee alongside health workers and others. so in ruffin island, this of the southern part of gauze, others over 1000000 people displaced. and there are accounts absolutely everywhere in formal shelters, people sleeping under tops in the middle of winter. so it's, it's a, an enormous scale. a few minutes are in need, but it's also happened. i did an incredibly fast space on eunice residents. a saying that there's ongoing slicing close to the biggest hospital that's still functioning in garza, vanessa hospital. what would happen if that stopped functioning to the necessary or medical complex in finding us is one of the major hospitals in gaza. and it's one of the few remaining. a major trauma center is major hospitals. and

it's when i was there just over a week ago and they were at 200 percent of their normal bed capacity and already running with only about 30 percent of their stuff present and, and more of now slid. it has enormous consequences. it means that these people who were injured and the kinds of injuries that i saw included trouble injuries, gunshot injuries, crushed injury, is many children every, every time i visited the hospital with serious injuries, it means those people will not have access to care. and it also means that the, the hundreds or thousands of people who are in the hospital including patients and people who are displaced will have no place to go. many of those patients are surgical or they're postoperative patients who need to be in a clean environment. so i expect we'll see more postoperative infections and it just means that the population has less and less access to health services, shrinking access to health services and training humanitarian access phone k same

from the world health organization. thank you so much for telling us about your experiences. thank you. or to ecuador, now what 2 men have been arrested over the matter of a prosecute to tracking down illegal drug gangs. the prosecutor was investigating the storming of a tv station by narcotics traffickers last week. drug cartels have been waging a bloody campaign of kidnappings and killings. following a government crackdown on organized crime, the buttons began when in the tories gang leda escaped from prison. and joining us now is christopher savage, cna, he's an expert on less than america at the chatham house. think tank in london. welcome to the w. police. the saying that the prosecute is not a looks like an assassination. can you tell us what, what do you make of this latest escalation and violence and equitable? well, it certainly looks like an assassination. it was done in broad daylight to shop

multiple times in his car measure mentioned he was investigating the seizure of the television station in ecuador that i think this is the shape of things to come in the, the, the gangs of declared war on the government. and the government has said that this is an internal civil conflict. so i think we're going to see a lot more of this. and it indicates that the problem isn't just one of the military employees can handle as a, a democratic government tries to address issues and security and crime which would have to use the traditional system. it's going to have to do it. so under the rule of law and democracy and this is going to place judges and prosecutors usually risk . and so there's going to need to be a effort to protect these a civil servants and carrying out their duties to pursue justice. so the ecuadorian government is saying it's not going to back down and it's fight against gun related violence. the challenge seems to be guessing. honda,

you'll saying the judicial system needs to be involved. when can you tell us what else needs to change? fundamentally, to bring this to some kind of conclusion it's, there's a lot to be done there. let's just take, 1st of all the state capacity. ecuador is, as we all know, was an island, a piece for a long time, which between the very conflict of countries in columbia and peru, and never really develop the, the material, a human resource or institutional capacity and carry out security at the level that has to be done now. so 1st of all has to be separate, secured. second of is going to involve also establishing a presence in large areas of the jungle along the borders, as well as in a lot of parts of the city. and this will involve the are forces which are not necessarily quite to do police work, but then there's the issue of routing out corruption within the state. in the last couple of months, the attorney general deanna salazar, has actually lost a series of investigations into judges. and others, including prison guards,

accusing them of corruption and collaboration with the arm gains of that's what they need to continue. but for those judges and prosecutors and public officials that remain clean, it's going to, it will be involved in prosecuting investigative cases. they need to be protected, they require police protection and their families require police protection. these are very brutal, bloodthirsty, immoral things. and they will take as much as they can many prisoners and casualties that they can to protect their turf and protect their operations. christmas of insanity from cast them house in london. thank you so much for your insights. thank you. a darren gemini, thousands have turned out for a false nicest protest against the fall rights alternative to germany. policy, the demonstrations which triggered by reports that a, if the policy members and the others had discussed the plan to the port, millions of foreigners and germans with the migration background. the f. d has
