9:01 am
a russian border region as ukrainian shelling intensive, thoughts authorities release images. so the latest attack one failed on road a region now being swept up in russia's war with ukraine, the hello m. terry martin, thanks for joining us. united states has circulated a draft un security council resolution calling for an immediate cease fire linked to the release of hostages in the gaza strip. during a visit, the saudi arabia, us secretary of state anthony blinking. emphasize the need to protect guys and civilians and provide humanitarian aid. the draft resolution isn't about face for the us, which last month, vito to call you in for such a truce. lincoln is now on to egypt and then on friday we'll continue on to israel
9:02 am
. here's what lincoln had to say to a saudi media outlet. so we actually have a resolution. he said that we put forward right now that does call for an immediate cease fire tied to the release of hostages. and we hope very much that countries will support that or more of this, we can talk now to journalists by like sliding entail a beef. and katarina l. y in kyra green to you. first, this shift in the us position on a ceasefire and gaza. how is that likely to be seen in the region, particularly in egypt, where anthony blinking his holding thoughts the so what i think the hope is that this will give some input. this is the way to boost the seas. probably need restrictions that are going on because in the background. and we know that there's a basic agreement of
9:03 am
a 6 week ceasefire in exchange for using hostages 40 hostages. and then in exchange, releasing at the 20 to start the fault of for understanding prison. this is from, is there a presence, but they have cost a lot of disagreements and that this is the help that this new you and, and us the initiative really push this. that is the difference is the difference. one of them is like how much as they binding this to with hostages, that the student, a lifetime license refusing it how much on the other side is asking for him to pick the names for the policy. that's where he's from. the prison said they ask for at least a 100 and then and was nice sent this, this is where it is refusing. that is, and it's the other end is asking the possibly to the ports some of the release for this, the business to search the countries. and finally, there's, of course, the hope that that would be for the ceasefire and sort the reviews as well as how mazda is connecting this to like in
9:04 am
a permanent ceasefire to an end of the void that this, of course, something they said y'all is refusing because of his objective to destroy how much so despite of this is change with you guys because issues this to not know the work, spend a lot of disagreements in this negotiations. now polish in tel aviv uh, what about is real? how is, is real likely to react to this push by the us is making a huge deal of this statement by blinking here in israel. i do understand why. well, we have, for now is a statement by blinking in an interview with the saudi media saying that the u. s. issue to propose up with us to go to the gulf of the state on the basis of an immediate cease fire target to the release of the hostages within the scene of the details of the proposal. yes, the issue is less about the seas by the immediate or not, but whether it's a permanency or something that wouldn't be acceptable and it's ro,
9:05 am
i honestly don't think that the u. s. would ever quote for such a thing. secondly, when blake and saying it's tied to the leaves of the hostages, does he mean that these far would be an a conditional release of the hostages? because if that's the case and isn't oh, there will be a 100 percent for somebody that i don't imagine how much extra thing, even if the us to go to causal proposal passes. and leslie link is saying that this is a, you have a resolution proposal will send this drug message here. i see 3 options here. getting this message. the 1st 2 are for homeless and to show that you use right now, the troops in dover, and such a proposal would put pressure on them to accept the terms of the negotiations. but thirdly, and maybe i'm not here just talking about the us politics, but it's definitely a message also to be democratic walters ahead of the election. say, here we are, we are pushing for these far as your demand. and you know, in got korea, tell us more about the situation in gaza right now. it sounds like the need for
9:06 am
food assistance. there has become absolutely critical. i was, i mean, let's not stay was uninterrupted evidence. i mean, we have a key is statement by wsp, the words organization that the timing is payment and so between now and me and they don't say this like you this can, you indicate this wednesday, your end is announcing the money this time in or offending and to some of it is the insecurity of it's for dissertations. basically we do a full in gaza. the other one is the management solution of children. so wsp decided that it's the time now to announce that the in the mean it's, it's, it's an assignment in people in gaza starting to test right now. the wsp, which is direct, assumed the mccain is saying, meant by a man made on the mileage sushi crisis. it. she is saying that there's
9:07 am
a very small window left to prevent and outright hammond ends to do that. we need immediately for the excess to the north. so that means what is right. and if you wait until this payment has been declared, it's too late. sounds more would it be that says the heads of the wsp kareem. thank you very much. that was kareem, l, g, y, and cairo. and in tel aviv we were speaking with bali sliding. thank you very much . the bus now in the cranium, capital t, several explosions have been heard in the city center. it follows an error alert prompted by a series of missiles and drones launched by russia, the largest attack of its kind in recent weeks. keats mayer metallic, let's go says that. 8 people have been injured and 10 that rock in fragments, damage several buildings, including a kindergarten residence or sheltering in the subway as air defense units engage in repelling the assault. earlier i spoke to our corresponded max son turned
9:08 am
into you. he told us more about the latest about last night's attacks. that's right, terry. so the city right now is recovering from a large scale attack, one of the kind that it has an experience for many weeks now. last night at about 3 o'clock in the morning, um, every sirens were, could be heard here and across the capital at a rate alert that was last for about 3 hours. and in that time, residents in the city could hear air defense going to work. air defense rockets being launched into the air flashes in the sky and explosions. that being sounded all across the city. um, from what the trinity air force is saying 31 missiles were launched at the crating capitol, all of which were intercepted according to them. these miss houses are different
9:09 am
types of missiles, i'm cruise missiles, but also the listing this house, including the the decor misheard of change on this. so which is very difficult to intercept that according to the trainings and ralph taken out of the year. now there were no direct tips in the city, but falling debris came down, hit the residential buildings. kindergarten was impacted, businesses were impacted as well as powered infrastructure. and the numbers you just mentioned regarding people injured have been corrected. as of now, it seems that 13 people were injured, at least 2 of them being children. and this attack is, is that already that this, at this scale hasn't happened and quite to the number of weeks. now, the ukranian authorities to say that this was the 1st time and more than a months that russian strategic pharmacy was deployed and 11 aircraft are said to have been taking parts in this attack on, on the crate and capital,
9:10 am
stella was much turned reporting from the granite capital k, a meanwhile ukrainian shells had been pounding rushes belgrade border region for several days. authorities there say thousands of children ought to be moved to safety as they expand the major evacuation plan. the regents capital city sits just 40 kilometers from the ukranian border. the area has come under increasing attack in recent months with russia is present. vladimir putin, boeing to protect civilians from long range, ukrainian strikes and cross border rates. this kindergarten in belgrade is one of many buildings damaged and showing. as the kindergarten principal witnessed the blast firsthand, it was loud, the glass was ringing. all the doors were shaking after the last and the loudest bang. we understood that it was somewhere nearby, but didn't even suspect that it was at our place. we thought it was close,
9:11 am
but not at our place. then when everything come down, we saw the aftermath. no children were injured. but in another part of belgrade, a man was killed when shrapnel from the showing hit. his car. rushes military says the attack is aimed at the stabilizing the country after its recent election. can use the cause, we kinda respond to the same way you can play for guarding civilian infrastructure and all the other objects. you know the enemy attacks or what we have our own views on this matter. and our own plans we will fall like once we have outlined so far, west has plans include restricting entry to nearby cities in the belgrade region and evacuating around $1200.00 children. but with the war in ukraine now and russia's doorstep, the border region is feeling the effect and the source of enemy fire is getting harder to detect. the phillip bus you left ski is a former c, i,
9:12 am
a parent military case officer. and now director of the center for intelligence and non traditional warfare at the foreign policy research institute in the us. he gave us his assessment of the situation in around belgrade. or i would say that you have to look at these attacks and 2 contacts. one is a tactical operation of design, probably to really pressure from ukraine forces under attack. and the done boss is operation areas to the of the south east of the country. but also as a psychological operation to discredit during the elections which have just passed . and also to show that the promise that this war is not going to affect the average russian is not true. it also undermines the kremlin is claim that all russians support this war. because of we have a lease of taxes, 3 russian volunteer military units. fighting for on the side of you, praying against pollutants regime and there's other people who are undertaking this attacks right now. these 3 groups have been around for a few years,
9:13 am
and they're generally made up of either the sectors threats centers of war who come over the ukraine side, or also ethnic russians who had immigrated earlier to ukraine and are also fine. uh for ukraine. they're part of the many, a national group within the, the international fighters were fighting for ukraine. besides this, these rush groups, you also have group 2 dealers. chechnya, georgians and, and many others of the 3 that we know are taking part of this are known as the freedom of russian legion or the russian volunteer corps and the siberian battalion, which is one of the newer ones. but it recently been in combat in the of discovery of a number, maybe a few 1000 or not large. but again, it's a great psychological impair. shows russians fighting against russians on russian soil, against, against losing and against it for are here in europe. most leaders continue to
9:14 am
stress their long term commitment to supporting ukraine, but increasingly there are risk sort of just how far that support should go. the divisions have become even more pronounced since brands is present in mind. while my call went out total limb with an idea she floated earlier this month. still he got his phones on have him to stay on the face of things. the french president and the german chancellor are aligned to both committed pro europeans who also both explicitly support to crate. but it's starting to become clear, they might not be getting on. related to how your credit background started talking about sending european grind treatment to ukraine's kind to adopt. schoultz said no, my crumbs suggested gemini, should be sending long range taurus besides jokes was forced to say no. i mccormick shelton, a very difficult position. and in some ways, schultz shouldn't have shot,
9:15 am
but he should have stuck to a message and it should have been true and consistent. and because he have full, but we're getting around the place and changing things. it doesn't look very effective once he's responding to my. com dw, his head speculation by some senior you did. some of the showcases refusal to send the tourist missiles to ukraine. is personal on his part. that having being pressured into sending to that the tongues, he mounted ones to be seen to stand firm on something. the president of the chancellor. nothing but in last week, commercial smiles and friendship, but no public expression of change in political positions. the reality is the germany has actually become ukraine's 2nd biggest supplier of military aid, off to the u. s. a. mine seem to 17700000000. your ex it's significantly move and not have friends, which has committed 635000000 years of military age,
9:16 am
according to the ukraine support track studies ukrainians with the austin. well uh, you know, they call talks a big game. but is he willing to back that up by a significant increase in military assistance to ukraine funds in germany guessing along with each other is fundamental for the european union? not much happens in less the 2 can agree. and ukraine is just one of the issues you lead is a discussing during that brussel summit as well. your leaders are gathering in paris today for the start of a 2 day summit with ukraine high on the agenda without about to kick off. let's bring in or read them alone from the european council on foreign relations. she joined just from pears. right. what do you make of this friction between the french and german leaders on how best to help you crane defend itself?
9:17 am
i think, as was reminded in your report, there is an overall agreement on the necessity to continue supporting ukraine over the long term in this war and beyond this war. but there is a more and more visible disagreement on the way to do this with my co trying to play on what he called strategic and think we t signaling russia that the europeans would be ready to grow the consequences office. so folks and the necessity not to let russia when wire shows is probably more cautious on the communications and also more cautious on not going be on what the us i'll doing in the us as everyone. those are currently not doing as much as they used to, which increases divergences within the u. a transfer shouts, hullstead,
9:18 am
possibly refuse to deliberate german cruise missiles to ukraine. when we know francis position on that house viewed by the by germany's other counterparts in the as well, there are 2 elements to this question. the 1st one is um the use ukrainians could make from long range move size. and that is a general consensus that this would help ukrainians hipped russian supply lines be on the front line, not necessarily in russian terrace rate. um, but it could, it could contribute to basically saying you've training and nice um the 2nd element is the fact that many you were up in saying that the german chancellor has been saying no to the left that tanks to the variety of
9:19 am
things and that accepted so i think there is an expectation that the same kind of discussion will happen on the taurus at the ultimately, germany will deliver these on range me size. okay, no, as we heard in our report, frances military support for ukraine announced only a fraction of what germany is providing. why is friends not doing more? so that's a very good question. um, the 1st thing is if the french government is fantastic, the figures that you quoted and contesting the figures provided by the q institute and has provided different figures and is also emphasizing the fact that it's not communicating about everything it is doing. and that certain things like intelligence or training kind of be expressed in figures. the
9:20 am
2nd thing is probably the model that full has failed over the past 30 years, which was very much focused on projecting it's ministry in all the theaters, especially in africa and not so much on the defense of its directory, which was dealt with with nuclear deterrence so that are sort of them weapons, that troll basically doesn't have and it stops because it didn't need them. the last element is the budgetary constraints. a false has much more public debt than germany, obviously. and us much less fiscal margins then germany which is also why falls has been pushing on the you inventing
9:21 am
what it calls in order to ways of financing the support to ukraine. because it obviously doesn't have so much of fiscal margin to do that. i'm into my biological way. really thank you very much for talking with us today. that was my regional lunch. she is the director of the water. you're a program at european council on foreign relations. and that you some of getting underway today, of course, is in brussels. not parents, as i said earlier, thank you very much. very thank you. are now for weeks farmers across europe have been protesting against what they say is too much red tape and too much government interference in their sector. farmers are also upset about the cheaper ukrainian imports flooding the market. their protests again blocked roads in several countries ahead of thursday's e u summit, which they hope will address their concerns. building fires in the middle of the roads. polish farmers are once again blocking traffic in nationwide protests.
9:22 am
they brought their tractors, and even a coffin, they say symbolizes the death of agriculture. available that ought to be all subsequent breeding is coming. the document that will be expensive as well for the lives of the world and everything as it goes by these things are very expensive. i don't know how long i last set of interview, protesting high costs and low forward use prices. it's part of a 3 month action plan by farmers across the u. many of them blame there was on the use environmental regulations. they say they add more bureaucracy, leaving farmers with even larger bills. and they're fighting for the pollution of the green, the that's our top priority protests and the czech republic too. much of the farmers anger is also directed at cheaper ukrainian produce, making its way into the you tax free and without having to conform district. your
9:23 am
rules like maybe to problem is because of the problem of the ridiculous regulations . importing grading from you, craig would not be a problem. you don't have to. we don't under the same conditions as we have here, and we've a same taxes that we pay it on the market. you bought too many of the claim, those in ports are driving down the prices of their own produce. so far, the european commission has denied the imports have a quote, significant impact on prices. while the u has reached a provisional deal, that would continue allowing duty free ukrainian products until mid 2025, with new caps on some food and ports of like oats and corn. farmers are now waiting for the outcome from brussels, where the leaders are set to meet for to day summit to the us state of texas though on the ongoing legal fight over
9:24 am
a new migration law. it grad state officials, the power to arrest into port anyone suspected of crossing the border illegally from mexico until now enforcing immigration laws was the responsibility of federal not state authorities. the new law was suppose to go into force this month, but an appeals court has put the measure on hold, leading to confusion at the border. the final steps towards the american dream. thousands of my iphones try to reach us, showing in search for a better life. while on the other side, a legal battle shows confusion over who has the power to police the border for some of those who have made it true, texas as new immigration law is only adding to their concern. it's not difficult. now. immigration services keep endorsing us to keep trying. but if we
9:25 am
face this new law upon arrival, then everything becomes more complicated for us because we can't keep moving forward. i believe that they keep shutting goals and us every day. texas, the texas governor assess the us is facing an invasion of a legal migrant and the state has the right to defend itself. the immigration cases here are currently handled by the federal government, not the state. however, under the new law state, sheriffs would have the power to arrest anyone the suspect of entering the us. i legally with manufacturing the new legislation which could see my friends facing up to 20 years in prison. we're not going to be targeting minorities or anything like that. we have to have reasonably, somebody is here legally years committed before with the legs. so are good citizens don't need to be worried about the police waste but neighboring mexico says it's
9:26 am
worried about this new law. and even if texas is given the power to enforce it, the country has made clear it won't be accepting anyone deported by the state. we go, let's take a look at some 3 foot age from chester's it. when the u. k. where a 2 snow leopard zip just arrived. it's the 1st time is it was ever cared for the endangered big catch. the male and female will have room to room in an immersive habitat designed to recreate the rocky terrain of the himalayan mountains. zoo described the arrival as a huge milestone for the protection of these eye clinic cuts. so just reminder is the top story we're following for you. the us has called for an immediate cease fire link to the release of hostages and the gaza strip. washington circulated a draft un security council resolution after between previous such calls. secretary
