5:01 pm
a new coalition. support is one of the most states in last week's elections defying expectations the i made visible and welcome. first, the us senate has approved the $95000000000.00 a package more than half of which will go to ukraine. the funding is a as helping key restock defenses incident. those it's 3rd year for the package also includes military support for you as well. and taiwan and strategic ally, the bill will now proceed to the republican laid house of representatives, which is set to reject it. is the most of the state always been, you mean, as i school by is in washington, he has more on what happened in the senate. this was an all nighter that the us senate had it before this vote. that happened month of political discussions between democrats, between republic, and there is
5:02 pm
a growing division also within the republican part of, of the role that the u. s. a wants to play abroad. this was priced by both democrats and republicans in the senate where this bill was passed with age for israel, for taiwan, and also a for a ukraine senate majority leader tech who move from the democrats. he said, the senate, the class that american leadership will not wave will not falter, will not fail. this is not just a winful, the democrats, but also for the republicans. there is mitch mcconnell from the republicans who has been pushing and who has been making aid for a ukraine also has top priority. also considering that there is and not everyone within the republican party also wants to support a you just said. the important thing now is what will happen in the house of representatives? we have the speaker from the republicans to mike, a johnson cost adults on this. what if this will actually pass because there's nothing sad on a tougher immigration laws in the us, in this new package, and use that. that is not even clear if the house will vote on this. there was
5:03 pm
a previous view from the senate last week and but it, republicans in the house of representatives said that it was not tackling it. and now, so we can expect a showed in the house because there's a growing number of republicans. the said, the 1st, the border in the us needs to be secure before sending 8 to other parts of the world. the double use an economy has more on how the news is being received in ukraine from keith. what we've already had was addressed to from presidents zalinski. and obviously people are trying to see the positives and notice they are looking at the fact that the by parts of majority was bigger than expected than it had been, for instance, earlier in the week when this bill passed 1st procedural hurdles. but as benjamin said, that no clear pos to this being paused in the of the in the house and to speak at johnston. so lots of question marks. there was a sense that in terms of finance for ukraine's government to keep the machinery of ukraine's government working pensions paid salaries,
5:04 pm
especially with measurable paid. that is something that you can can find alternative for in japan and the other nations. suppose in ukraine with cash that when it comes to military hardware, when it comes to restocking ukraine's picture missile systems that are so crucial to keeping the city where i am now key of safe, there is really no offense to us. so this is kind of near endless psycho drama people here and you find trying to understand all the procedural bits. all the kind of complexities of us politics are basically oscar themselves is the us to in this is the us willing to carry through or is the us i'm more concerned with its internal issues that take the internal struggles then about keeping vitamin, which is troops of a hearing ukraine. oh, us president joe biden has urged israel to protect the palestinian civilians at any ground. invasion of the cousins city of rafa. i've met with jordan's king, i've been there on monday at the white house. they 1st face to face meeting. since these are as well with homeless began, bible says they discussed a possible 6 week break and the funny thing jordan has been pushing for permanency
5:05 pm
is fine. washington is the king's 1st jump on a tool that includes canada, france and germany. so there were some of what by the said in the joint use conference and the major military operation, robert robert, should not proceed without a credible plan, a credible plan for ensuring the safety and supports more than 1000000 people. shelburne, germany's foreign minister and the battle banks, biden's comment saying as well as a judy to provide safe car doors for civilians in profit, the number of palestinian civilians taking refuge, their own guns as southern border has increased fine fold. the city was declared a safe, so the palestinians by israel's miller trade, during its ground defensive in other parts of the strip. thousands of palestinians of raffle though we've been killed and injured, biased by the strikes. he's bolt from the german foreign minister. yeah, because in that's one of 2000. if i may have seen hundreds of thousands of people lose the homes in the past months, of course they need show to ease into and then they went to the south where they
5:06 pm
will already several refugee camps being happy. so that's why we made it clear that the over 1000000 people in the area conte just disappear into santa so not as often as they need safe car doors to get to safety like they did in the beginning. cutting so would be that's not as our responsibility, but definitely i've made it as clear as possible. the cannot just be safe places, inquiry tools and theory division they have to exist. in reality, richard will want to switch school window of the game was on an open to see i need to to this sarah davies is with the international committee of the red cross. i asked her if is wells ever managed to facilitate the safe movement of people in gallons or with the population displaced multiple times? what we've seen over the last couple months isn't, as you've said, is placement multiple times. some people choose 3 full or more times. i don't think a civilian in dogs has felt safe since this conflict began in earnest since these.
5:07 pm
* possibilities intensified and we have unfortunately watched unfold the v a n a 20. that way hearings, mount teens on the ground right now is over the describe. it will be at the speed of civilian display civilians. all currently living through is terrific and they wake up every single morning. no, no way do they will have a safe way to evacuate a safe path. there is the south indicted cigar, then russell. so i know that i feel a lot of civilians are really terrified of what the future my home. so if either side isn't facilitating or neither side is facilitating safe car doors for the civilians. how, what else is there a back you ation from or off it because we're talking about over a 1000000 civilians. how is that even thinkable
5:08 pm
the cost a lot of report circulating and i've been to the start as you and all the information, all the to be on the international, humanitarian bull is the responsibility of the coffee through the complex to install it. i should say all the documentation, so there's the orders be given to the civilian population of a passage must be of the may and they must be sold out without food and shelter are provided for civilian race. it will only be evaluation or not, must be temporary. this is all what international humanitarian law says is, but we all reiterating constantly to the policies to the conflict, as well as out concerns about the nearly catastrophic situation that our teams are seeing on the ground. right now, so rough or is also where most aide gets through to guys. and so i don't need to tell you that. but if the crossing is close to getting, what's your plan be right now out by proceeds on providing
5:09 pm
assistance where possible. we have continued to be able to provide assistance in a, including 3 out what surgery team at the european dollar hospital. this is what we will continue to see all the needs of the 80 is needed to come for not less right now. the a that is entering is not sufficient to meet the needs of the one point. 5000000 people who are currently in southern dogs are barely this, but we need stresses rollers involved in these calls, which from the policies to the humanitarian organizations, like the international committee of the red cross, kind of actively and safely distributed a to where it is really desperately need. so the other thing is that i will talk around the way to discuss and you cease 5 between his round and how us having facilitated the release of over a 100 hostages is your organization and both in preparations are waiting for
5:10 pm
another release. so all the freedom of the hostages, by any chance we would have caused a welcome to any agreement. so loud for the release of hostages, who would that be fully be unconditional? release of since day one. as well as more a is room, does a lot of these agreements, i don't know totally equal level. and our role is to step in once disagreement has been reached, we all prayed to play as a role. we're ready to facilitate the release and transfer all of us. did you should any agreement be reached? it? can i ask you just one more thing b i c aussies mandate is to protect the lives and dignity of victims of bond conflicts you fulfilling that mandate in gaza. we are absolutely working to the best of our ability to provide aid to civilians who have been impacted involved. the situation is unprecedented in this area. one of my
5:11 pm
colleagues yesterday says to me that my babies have been born and buried during this conflict. this is the scale of this is off the humanitarian disaster that we are dealing with to monitoring organizations. why the international committee of the red cross will continue to west to ensure that disney can be provided to the civilian population, but as well on the international humanitarian? well, it does remain the responsibility and obligation all the top easy involved to the complete to ensure they apply. i respect these rules outside of civilian lives can be protected every day. these joining us from the international committee of the red cross in jerusalem there. thank you so much for your time today. thanks for letting me look down what some of the other stories making news south africa has asked the international court of justice to consider whether israel's actions in rough, a breach showed as headed down by the court. last month,
5:12 pm
south africa brought the case against israel. of aging genocide, and if we live in rebuilding last month, the court ordered israel to do everything possible to prevent the death of palestinians and concepts of land slide is trapped at least 9 workers in a gold mine in eastern turkey. it swept across the valley where the workers were thought to be at the time. officials say, rescue efforts are ongoing. russia has declared to stony and private as the colors of wanted person must go, was accusing her of taking hostile actions against russia and articles. the desecration of historical memory must go as long criticize the stony of for a moving soviet era. monuments call us as being a vocal supporter of ukraine since roches invasion. the presidential candid in pakistan, the party of full, the prime minister in wrong con, has announced plans to try to form a government following dispute with elections. the chairman of his p t, i says it's time for me and alliance with a small
5:13 pm
a pi on himself is in prison. his party is accused the states of a crack down against its members and a vote breaking allegations. the state denied despite being banned candidates ran his independence and won the most states seem up yet had lost the award in their constituency, in the city of south india. but she refuses to accept that event. she campaign with the backing of 5950. i thought d, no, she's mobilizing her supporters and protesting against what she believes was evict, both count the police disperse, but at least the police cases fight against hard and other supporters for disrupting public or do see might be a is just one of the many b b, i back independent candidates who said they were not allowed and level blank fee
5:14 pm
for campaigning before elections. they were forced to do door to door campaigns. the complaint, the values for disrupted, and members of the state. the fact they headed into elections with the leader in von calling, jean and the electorate of symbols removed, forcing the candidates to run as independence with the election over b t. i backed candidates. no, i think the courts would, would freaking indications something. the buckets on the state continues to deny. yet, despite the many hurt as b t, i backed candidates fields on the most seats of performance that shocked many in focused on leaders hold on the phone of the bumper for the military really fine and the student's success. the candidates likes him up yet though his c they, we continue to fight leak and back and bill to get on. so it's from the buckets on the part of these are for the meanest job. it just returned from pakistan. biggers,
5:15 pm
tell us more about the p t i and it's a if it's too full of some sort of government, it's a 2 d, b t i headed $5.00. and the former prime minister and run hom has announced that the reform and alliance with the small party in the center. this will give them legitimacy. this will allow them to have access to dissolve seat score in the parliament. it will also stop the practice of horse trading, because once the speed the i back independent can it's become part of an alliance of a party. then by, by, as we, they can not switch sides. um, so this also gives the d i a, a some sort of trends that there's a p p i back candidates, but not a leaf the party. but this is just an announcement to form a government. this still need a lot of numbers beat the i still claims that they have enough numbers to form a government. they have challenged the results of several of the seats. they are
5:16 pm
going to the quotes to the election commission are focused on, and they said that they have evidence and their hopeful that the results will feel by them. and that they will be able to eventually form the government on that on. but there's also a high possibility that the been not be able to form the government and they will probably beat and sit in the opposition. it sounds like a whole lot of p, uh, work to me. but what about other bodies? so i thought about these are b, m a n a that got the 2nd highest sport and b p that got the 3rd highest sport. and today beat that the a 5 digit announced that got the 3rd highest sport and is headed by beloved daddy, whose son, the fuckers, and former prime minister benefit portal. they have announced that they will support the 2nd party. that's one of the most. what's the midland informing the government? so basically they have sort of announce that they will not be in the equation government, which means that the 5 d, that ones the 2nd highest for them and,
5:17 pm
and as us now, it looks like they will eventually form of minority government. this all sounds like it's going to end up being some sort of uh, watered down coalition. i mean, what package that needs of the volume. it is a strong government with the legitimacy to tackle such huge problems like the economy, security and the inside election acted would be was to end. but it because in stability in focused on like to have a strong stable government. but in that enough to election one party p t, i completely accused of a complete a sidelining from the political process that accused of i'm being thought of familiar to the drive down and then after elections we saw that this because no party was able to gain majority, and there's still a lot of public support and sentiment towards bpi. it seems like the it's going to
5:18 pm
be a very weak government, a government that's not credible a government that's being formed with accusations of vote rigging. and what is they collected these and therefore i see political deals and the in the future. i see. but it, because uncertainty in the future, a very weak government when focus on needs of very strong government. but the kind of challenges that focused on has right now in his job. it thank you very much for breaking it down for us. police and india has located highways, leading incidentally from india's northern provinces, in an attempt to stop thousands of angry farm is from reaching the capital pharmacy unions say the government has failed to meet that demand on pricing and income guarantees. authorities and daily of gone into overdrive to try to cut the unrest, applying the maximum number of police and restricting public gatherings of building fine. the good as farm is in the supporters gather around 200 kilometers his
5:19 pm
newest of delhi to much on the capital. the police of the to stop them using to gas firing war to cannons and making arrests because i'm not pleased to see how peacefully the farm was a marching. yep. the police are dropping. the deal got shows from the drones. how bringing this guy got it draws it draws it, but the psalm is, will not be deterred from heading to delhi, bringing the concerns to a government they feel has let them down. the current situation is that we have removed a layer of body gets that the police had put in place to stop us from crossing the border. everybody's hope you're doing. we have removed the rest as well. the
5:20 pm
firm is unions cool. these protests today often negotiations with ministers to secure a minimum prices for that pro 2 stools. they say the government also failed on its promise to double the income by 2022. found this protest like these new, these frustrations began several years ago. but this current unrest comes just months ahead of national elections. sandwich 2 sides of india is population employed in agriculture. the government cannot afford to ignore that. and 10000 migraines have arrived on spain, canary islands this year, most crossing for more atanya last week. the european union in spain, plates 210000000 euros to help the country clamp down on smugglers and at a time like them. but they couldn't re islands their final destination for people trying to reach continental europe. now because of those attempting, the dangerous atlanta crossing,
5:21 pm
a soaring so to the number of those who die. dw is john phillip shots reports from last upon us. and mohan on grand canal area. a small cemetery on the canary islands, blank space of stand out between the other plaques, no name, no epitaph. these are the graves of unknown african migrants there. now, so many of these that the cemetery has had to expand mo, do often comes here. he survived the crossing from senegal, but many people he knows didn't. a good friend has been missing for 3 weeks. as the boy said to me, and this could be him, or anyone else around me who has died for this. that's why i always feel incredibly sad when i'm here. so the model may seem to submit to the state the number of migrants who have made it to the canaries. is that an all time high? but so 2 is the number of those who died attempting the crossing few carry any documents. so identifying them is difficult. the requires all recovered bodies to
5:22 pm
be identified and properly buried. but in reality, this rarely happens. franco, get a manager's the cemetery in this small community, he feels abandoned by his government. he says he gets no help in giving the migrants a dignified burial. it's just a number point in the let's finish when we take the phone and call some of the read or the to the very or government. they will say don't worry, we'll see. don't worry, we'll see it. but we don't have any solution. they're only a few experts on the island who can help it then to find the many dead heavy as happy as a pathologist, he and his team gather d. n. a samples, dental analyses and photos of the deceased their final report as often as far as they get through the p. s as the past months have been exceptionally hard
5:23 pm
to you. what are the needs? is that i'm not good, you must the worst are the autopsies of small children in your muscle. this is really difficult to process emotionally. you know, you feel terrible and you just want to cry for a day or 2. it's actually quite traumatic to be confronted with all the people in what's going on in mode, who continues to search for more information about his missing friend, his relatives, and send a go. keep asking him for news via what's up. they've given up hope of getting information through official channels. is the us out. but again, i'm at my wits and his wife and his young daughter are waiting for news speaking. no, he said on this and i don't know who to turn to. we just want to know if he's still alive, or if he died, when to maybe america will happen, says moto,
5:24 pm
but he knows that for all those unidentified people buried here on the island, there are many more unaccounted for. last, let's see. process cars, one object public has more details on the deal between the issue and more atanya. yeah, well, i mean this is how that trying to deal with this situation. as we just saw in the reports, the european commission president us of, on the line in the spanish prime minister, petra sanchez went to more atanya, which is where many of these boats are leaving to make that way to the canary islands. and basically what they offered was money, 250000000. your raise essentially 14000000 of that to try and help them or attain is deal with that border with molly where there's an ongoing conflict and many terrorist activity across that border and 210000000 yours to try and get into more attain is essentially to keep the migraines in more attain yet, and time prevented them from boarding both on the coast to make that dangerous
5:25 pm
johnny increasingly dangerous journey towards the canary islands. as we've seen in the report. hi devin, stating that is for so many people. now it sounds logical, brussels outsourcing responsibility for border control to other non e u countries, or at least getting them involved. but is a realistic it's yeah, i mean, this is the big question and this is really the thinking in brussels at the moment . it seems to clients in deals, financial deals to support the countries in north africa on different parts of the middle east as well to try and keep people that we saw it, for instance, with tramecia, where they signed a multi 1000000 your a deal. last year interestingly though, we saw that you knew the and government that was the key root in the last a positive last year. we saw that you knew the and government funds for 60000000 yours back into the account of the european union commission. they sold out money as does the rise and read. they didn't win the charity of the european union, so it's a really complicated position. so the, you at the moment,
5:26 pm
we're also seeing countries like it's leaks have agreed with albania, for instance, to set top low migration processing centers in albania, which is, i've saw you to, of the european union in order to try and get people to go to that rather than to stay in it to the so the situation at the moment is very clear, especially from e u. member states, especially from, from the line e. u. member states that people are entering that trying to keep the migraines outside of the you, trying to prevent them from entering the use board is the latest on that ongoing issue of migration and europe. jack packed in brussels. as a reminder about top story, this allen the u. s. senate as positive for an a bill that includes some $60000000000.00 and additional funding for ukraine. it now goes to the republican controlled house of representatives by faces an uncertain future of next saving africa's icon excel bump traits. my bank as well and on your christmas begin and
