situation in ukraine's ne, at the moment um, from what we know fighting is still very fierce fighting is continuing at the north northern border with, with russia. the russian forces were able to advance 5 to 10 kilometers into ukrainian territory in different parts. fighting continues, the russians were able to take some villages and fighting in the city of both chance is still continuing outside and inside the city. the ukrainians were put to react. they were able to re deployed and bring in forces from other parts of the front line and slow that advance. and until now we're able to prevent a breakthrough through their lines of defense. however, the situation still remains very, very serious. the printing present as ward, that's the fighting that could intensify in the upcoming in the, in the near future that the multiple waves could follow. and also that the,
11:05 pm
there are worries that perhaps in other parts of the northern border with russia. for example, i'm assuming a region where russia has a mass troops on the russian side of the border. there could be a following attack. in addition to that, the situation here in the city of harkey for we are right now us remains very, very difficult. a rush, a keeps continuing, attacking with rockets with guided bonds keeps attacking civilian infrastructure and industrial facilities, as well as residential areas that was due to police next end of the reporting from hockey. now no front line has apparently reopened in the wall between his body forces and how to spot his in gaza. witnesses describe heavy fighting, a of a not and in and around the town of jamalia in the north of the gaza strip. is ralph army describes the classes as some of the 5th since the hemisphere attacks on israel, on october 7th. and it comes as these wiley, bull cabinet members, any guns as threatened to resign,
11:06 pm
if the government files to put forward postwar plans for gaza with now 3 weeks should. so what effect will this renewed, heavy fighting have on the count is where the government strategy and policy i'm at least unless johnny was honest, is here to talk about it. good to see if any of that has been a rather dramatic statement, but i will cabinet minister penny guns once he had to say yes, well, he joined the got the comment shortly after october 7th to strength. and the government is a emergency unity government. he is a former general in these really armies are considered to be a surface politician. and what he's saying tonight to annette to now is basically he setting an ultimatum. he's saying the country has been hijacked by the most extreme parts of the right coalition. we need to do a complete re, re how of our strategy. he's demanding several of the things, but the 2 most important ones are demons rising, gaza in, in the civil way. sort of like making sure that these realize how can only operate
11:07 pm
when needed for the daily conduct of what's happening. goals or whoever takes care of gaza. and the guys on a population need would not be israel, but rather a joint alliance that is headed and led by the americans. and he also talks about israel publicly announcing and making active steps in order to get into this normalization packed with saudi arabia. something the americans have been promoting for the last months that will bring, you know, americans, saudis, alliance together with israel. and along with that, also a lot of many other moderate sunni countries in hopes to sort of re shape the balance of power in the least against iran. and so these are some of his ultimatums tonight, and we're seeing basically in the statement at all that we've been hearing quietly whispered by anonymous sources of last month is actually out in the open, the very open wrist. a very open and disagreement between the most leading of figures. it is really a government these days. like i said, there's lot packed in the, the, the going left, his brain light down and ultimatum as you say. what then has benjamin netanyahu had
11:08 pm
to say in response? so he wants to imitate, pushes back. he says, well, let a know alternators not be set to me, but rather to come off and dances. boys will bring the seat to israel. his attitude will not help us when and guns is trying to push back against that. we see a lot of these back and forth. and interestingly enough, you would wonder, well that's, and you know, as a prime minister who could just, you know, if you want and who could fire many guns? no right now, why is he not doing it? or why is many guns pun actively saying immediately i'm withdrawing from the government. and so what we're seeing here, this political bands for both sides are trying to put the blame on the other. because there's an understanding that the minute the benny guns and his party are out of the coalition. the 3 i was still technically has a numbers, but he doesn't have the public legitimacy. and that might be the 1st break in the domino effect of, of mass protest in israel. that might actually shake governments in the,
11:09 pm
our political stability for the 1st time in real, in real circumstance. is that possible for him? first time since october, this was asking the obvious question, where does this leave the bull cabinet? where does this leave the government? right? it's a very good question. that's what happens when it comes to handling the war and making decisions. you think of the families of the hostages, they look at this and they're completely in despair because they don't feel like that anybody has their interest in has, you know, top of his agenda. and of course, that's not a good position for as well to be. and i'm sure it's very satisfying to for him, us to see this, we will subject sullivan, the american national security advisor coming to as well tomorrow, from recharge from saudi arabia. still trying to make maybe something out of this mess and, and try to get as well, to move into some sort of a strategic horizon. it's a task. so the americans have been trying to get into how to agree on for a couple of months already. maybe now with this public, you know, outing of administer guns. something will change up in his real easy leadership.
