flying goes by the other election candidates who'd been allowed to stand against him. he sang his supporters for when most had predicted earlier, he claimed his victory was rooted in democratic principles and you most, it's for them when the, the source of authority in the nation, which is the russian people that i knew you would a, it's a, i see scheme that will well, most most divides willing to, to express the support for peace and there was some public discontent. i miss you is my hope that the other candidates would have better results or i don't expect any particular changes near bulletin about there are, there are no candidates my life more. so i voted against them all. i would like you trained to be free and the troops to be withdrawn from their germany called the vote. a pseudo election with voting, taking place and occupied ukraine, violating international law. the vinyl in the election in russia was an election

with our choice. the election process not only shows hooton's nefarious behavior towards his own people, but also violates the charter of the united nations. i try to find nazi when washington also pointed out the lack of democratic choice state to it would not congratulate food to this was an incredibly un democratic process. and certainly him being president of russia. it does not excuse him, of is of his talk or see the outlines including china, north korea and venice. a beta did congratulate the russian president with the victory crossing putin and not the 6th year to his net quarter century in deva, towards the top proceed. seems and stuff will you know, the news. israel has named the how most command it says it killed during

a ride at gaza cds all c for hospital science out of my pool was head of the militant islam is groups. internal security department is rouse, intelligent services. he was responsible for coordinating terror attacks and had been hiding in a building in the hospital. complex is around released these images of the ride, the army claims how must militants find that them from the hospital causes how must run hills industry is reporting multiple casualties. many people have been seeking sell to add al, seeing so since the start of the war began in response to the how most of the terror attacks last opportunity about a journalist, somebody still called in jerusalem told us earlier more about the is riley hospital . right? yeah, 1st of all, this is the, she saw hospitality that these really military rated already 4 months ago, took over those hosp, but the way she can pay the games to how mazda the fighters,

and then we drew from this place. so now it seems that even though is really losing control, so it says of the safety of the northern part of the street. how much has managed to come back to this a complex and indeed well can even see 2 30 in the morning. he's really forces entering the house, but the complex i, the there was the exchange of fire, and the is really, is up talking about more than a plugged a mazda in a fight or killed one is really soldier to, and i, i can tell you that also a journalist from a judge 0 who was covering these events was arrested and taken by these really forces together with many others who are in this a complex. and they've been taken to the question a by these are in the military, a semi circle there where you as president, joy biden has off is rile,

to send a delegation to washington. to discuss is rouse plans for a ground defensive on rough in southern gaza. bought in his war and prime minister benjamin netanyahu. you got an assault on rough on would be a mistake. roughly one and a half 1000000 people at sheltering day is us national security advisor jake sullivan. our position is that how i should not be allowed to safe haven in rafa or anywhere else. but a major ground operation, there would be a mistake. it would lead to more innocent civilian deaths, worse in the already dire humanitarian crisis. deep in the, in our key and gaza and further isolate israel internationally. more importantly, the key goals israel wants to achieve in rasa can be done by other meats. on the call today present and 5 and asked the prime minister to send the senior interagency team composed of military intelligence and to mandatory and officials to washington in the coming days to hear us concerns about israel's current wrap up planning and the layout and alternative approach that would target tea home us

elements in rafa, and secure the egypt cause of border without a major ground impatient jack solomon did so enjoy binding ease, requesting daddy's riley officials travel to washington. as benjamin netanyahu doubles down on his plans for a ground defensive and rough. uh. hi, aust, former us ambassador gerald fire. stine, how much pressure the us would be putting on these riley later? i think that clearly the administration is extremely concerned about the potential. uh, you might have to her and catastrophe if the as rallies follow through on those rights to go in. it's a rough of, they've been sick knowing consistently for weeks now that they don't believe that the as roy's have put in place the means to protect the civilian population there. uh and to uh, to target. hum us operative so that are still in the rough area until

they do that until there is some clear understanding between washington and jerusalem about how to go forward. i think that we're going to see the administration continuing to emphasize the risks. and there is an increasing view of, particularly among the democratic members of congress that you review, i semester ations needs to be more explicit and telling israel to stand back. let's talk about that as the us is pushing for what's being described as an alternative approach. and you're saying it will probably be more explicit. what do you think this alternative approach could mean? well, i think that as, as we heard from from j sullivan, the alternative approach would be not a major ground, defensive and rasa. but something more targeted, more,

more precise and try to identify where her modest leadership may be hiding. add to add to use other kinds of military means to achieve those targets without the threatening as security of the civilian population. and both of their as someone with many years of diplomatic experience, particularly in the middle east, i'd like to ask you, what do you make of where things stand right now in this conflict as well. i think that increasingly there is a great deal of frustration over the failure of diplomacy to achieve even eliminated ceasefire. we have seen that there's going to be another is really delegation going to continue the negotiations. uh, but uh, but the administration i think is very frustrated that they haven't been able to

impress on either the as rallies or home us or the need to take steps. now that would address the amount of terry crisis and bring this funding to a hall. and i think that again, as the, uh, the days of the weeks go by, the pressure on the, by the administration to do something more. uh, to bring this conflict to an end is only going to increase. that was phone that us ambassador gerald firestone and busta. thank you very much for your time and your insights today. it's a pleasure is look now at some of the other stories making headlines today. in spain, hundreds of people have taken part in a protest against the killing of civilians and gaza. the event in the city of son, son, sebastian, culminated in protest is lying on the ground to symbolize the dead around a band are inspired by a famous painting by picasso. policing nigeria says say
