he says it will take time on wednesday. us secretary of state, actually blinking arrived in saudi arabia for further thoughts, a bit, securing a ceasefire between mazda and israel. beneficial say that he will travel to israel on friday. i was speaking earlier this week, blinking it said that 100 percent of guns as population are now in need of humanitarian assistance. you'll filter. mine is a middle east in north africa, expertise program director at the international crisis group. i asked him what needs to change for a ceasefire and a hosted release deal to become a reality as well. in order for us to fire to happen, unique's work has been lucky all along, which is us pressure on israel to to accept one. of course, there are differences between his role and how mass was ceasefire, should be a but regardless of those differences,

the fact that we're facing the imminent threat of feminine in gaza and we're close to 2000000 people. roommate. the space suggests that a ceasefire is a urgency needed and so united states is the only power that can help bring that about if it's were to use the leverage that a test. what about the library and what about the power of saudi arabia? what role do this, all these have to play in shaping an agreement here? sorry, it may be the case is to go back to united states to put pressure on israel to continue to cease fire. so you may be doesn't have to be any significant leverage piece of the israel, that's a month. i understand that the u. s. secretary and stage is traveling decry row. next, we know that egypt is already constructing a walden can in the side not peninsula to receive displace palestinians to be can

you walk us through what's at stake right now for egypt, leaders or yeah, of course the for egypt to the stress of understanding from god spinning into sign i in into egypt. therefore, it's, it's, it's a, you know, really yes, right, great. and they want to advice such a scenario. is there any pulse at the same time? if it's the situation in southern goddess phillips and such a way that the students will out of desperation, throw themselves across the fence into sign a. it would be very difficult for egypt to refuse them. uh, to adjust the entry. so it must make a combination for some of them anyway, and i think that's what they're do. it's a plan b, or can see certainly not all day long. and well, all of this is happening. at the same time, it is really delegation, if there's any washington to discuss the plan to solve on rafa. we know the united states oppose is that how might these 2 competing if you will diplomatic efforts

influence types of a ceasefire deal? so it's, it's permanent significant with better, but there's one thing that to us and is what agree on that it's a, the defeat of, from us. but there is one thing also that the disagree on that is how it is done and a, and that is the key question because it's for israel to, for you to come, asked me to destroy and god. and expanding its function ation. or just basically making such a way to grow, it's going to have no surfaces and can only stand, you know, starve to death. then that is the red flag for the united states. so that is why the united states also has a close invasion of that does not include a provision for the population that's currently living or displaced. now you'll still to enjoying us tonight from russell's this be helpful and we appreciate your time and your analysis tonight. thank you so much. i as well,

the opportunity that it, that it presents not any 4 runner as a species to di, risk or on it. but for the benefit of biodiversity, it, it definitely does motivate us to, to keep doing what we do. moving the babies will be lied to work. the real heavy lifting comes when the majority of the heard over 1900 rhinos must be transported. southern wide, reino can weigh between 2 and 3 tons. and transporting one across the board is, can cost over $50000.00 us dollars per rhino. so i'm sort of, i'll take a minute, is that these are on it has a, have a massive value. um, not necessarily talking about a financial value, but an ecological value that they need to play in open areas, you know, contributing to by diversity shaping shipping landscapes. romano often seen a sentinel spc. so generally a clear indication if you've got and how could,

how's the eco system that's well managed and well protected, ronald flyers, the rhinos will be relocated over a 10 year period with some $200.00 ryan those being moved each year. the southern wide ride know population is one of the best recorded examples of successful conservation. 100 years ago. they were less than a 100 of these reino, in the wild. today, they are an estimate of $16000.00 in protected areas across africa. and even if asked the own is executive director of the international rhino foundation, i asked her what significance, the reintroduction of 2000 rhinos will have for the future of this species, african parks, acquiring these rhinos is absolutely the best thing that could have happened to them. this rhino population represents almost 12 percent of the entire spaces, so ensuring that these white liners are integrated into key populations around

africa is incredibly significant for the space is i understand too that they are about 60000 southern white rind. news in africa, but only to female, northern white, why nose are left on the entire planet. i mean, it's not good numbers of what are the reasons for this dramatic difference in, in those numbers of the northern white rhino which is a sub population of the southern of the white rhino space, is with a southern white rhino being the other subspace is due to crash to these perilous numbers. the 2 females that you mentioned. there are a lot of smart scientists from around the world working to try to save that spc through artificial reproductive technologies. and we, there was a recent success or, or progress on that reproductive technology. effort and hopefully there will be more white rhino soon. so we hope that as well media that's shown executive director of the international winded foundation. we appreciate your time did not
