colleague, our middle lease analyst shawnee was honest, is here with me, but she's been following the story all evening for us or johnny list. let's talk through this meeting between by then yahoo, what was on the agenda and who likes whom the least. that's a tough competition there, brent, that you know, but there's several things on the agenda. the 1st one for new for an engineering is people is amunition. they want and not just regular bombs, which some of them we know we've been stalling, but also they want more sophisticated weapons weapons to be delivered by the us. and they have the fear that either don't know what happens after november who's going to be taking over the white house. they just want to secure a big enough supply because on the agenda other than cause that is really is also looking to the north, to the clashes with hezbollah, the proxy of your on. and of course the who these another book see a proxy of iran in the south on board border. and israel would like to have the possibility to tech a lease once because that is coming to an end. so they're trying to get this uh,

the hands on more and more weapons to speaking because there are still hostages in jobs. i understand that at this hour, the u. s. president and these really prime minister are meeting with families, correct? the hostages in the us. correct, this problem is a hostages, some of them came with us and you know, on his plane, others have been invited by other american legislatures because they have dual american and is really citizenship and they're in the white house. and this was an initiative of president biden, who was very clear in his commitment to bringing back to hostage from day one. and he has met hostages families throughout the last month in the white house, also in his historic visit in israel. and he wanted to have them there and it was clear that if he has them there and he also hasn't them. now there, he's gonna have to make that to now part of that visit i think that's in the i would not have volunteered to be there. ideally, because there's a lot of tensions between antonio and the families, they have very much frustrated that they do not seal the deal yet. and that he's not do it on time before leaving to washington. he seems to be taking his time. the last discussion on it and these are the cabinet was sunday before he left and

nothing has changed since, and it's not clear if and when. and it's really that addition to the talks is going to be sent next. the is really prime minister. it will also be meeting, as we said earlier, the vice president and then flying down to forwarded to meet with a former president donald trumpet. i assume that the talking points in these 2 meetings will be slightly different. well, slightly different, mostly for talk about the tone, and we talked about the posture because i think camera harris has been very clear in her dismay of israel actions in the last month. he, she, she was cute and her criticism for the immense, that's all. and the death of civilians and girls and she, she was clear about that so far. but she also is found it important enough to be part of this meeting. she wants to establish herself as a maybe next president. she wants to show that she's part of that, you know, she has a stature. she has the ability to do with that to now that's on the one hand on the other. trump, you know, they have had some bad luck because she had trump presents nothing. you know, for congratulating by them for his victory back then however, you know,

what do we have in common for both harris and trump? that could not be more a part. and so many topics, what they do have together is the understanding that, that is really topic is big enough that because of what needs to come to an end. and this is what he will hear from both sides. and it's an, you know, sealed a deal move on. sean is always good to have you hear the studio. we appreciate your anal 0, not right. thank you. as well. it sounded like the beginning of a presidential farewell us president joe biden on wednesday night addressed the american people for the 1st time since announcing that he will not seek re election in november ever since the presidential debates last month biting has been dog by growing doubts over his mental fitness and his ability to be donald trump, review back in front of the cameras for the 1st time since biling out of the race to be re elected for joe biden, laid out the reasons for his decision. democracy. you know, a racial weeks has become clear to me. i need you to 9 my party in this critical

endeavor. i believe i recognize presence, my leadership in the world. i vision for america's future. all marriage of the 2nd term. nothing. nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy. that includes personal ambition. so i've decided the best way for it is a past the tours from new generation. as the best way to, you know, in our nation pressure on biden, to step aside, had been growing since lots many democrats felt was a disastrous, amazing performance against the republican nominee. donald trump, in june, in the days and weeks that followed very public gaffes by biting boot in tooting coating presidents savanski of ukraine. president putin led to more calls for him to buy lived of the race attempts by biden and his staff to allay fears about his

age and cognitive ability. the little to quell the cold for a new democratic candidate. and to know that he's out of the race fight and made it clear who he wants to see, winning the white house in november, just a few months. as the american people choose the course of america's future. i made my choice. i made my views now. how am i to thank our great vice president? come wires she experienced she's tough, she's capable. she's been an incredible partner me laser for our country. one of several important endorsements for coming to harris. the vice president is already busy campaigning to win the presidency, despite having not yet officially being named the democratic nominee. the parties convention is expected to decide that next month. all right, let's go down to washington, my colleagues different siemens he's following the story for us. step on i

understand the meeting between binding and yahoo has ended. i mean what have you heard about the meeting from the white house this? nothing's whitehouse is very tight lipped for now. at least about the meeting. there will be something we call a read out happening is to give some information what was discussed, but i mean, we kind of already knew what was discussed and shiny, already referred to that it's all about the ceasefire. deal that by ministration. once benjamin, it's a you know, to agree to he is the obstacle in all of this, and of course the, by the administration, joe, by and personally the president as well as kamala hours they would love and, and really yeah, well come this a ceasefire deal. so they can have a different vibe if you will. and the, regarding that topic regarding the warren guys are in the upcoming a democratic national convention in chicago in about almost 3 weeks time now. well, before he leaves washington dc, benjamin netanyahu was scheduled to meet vice president campbell,

a harris. does she fall in line when it comes to the war and gaza? or do we know, is she already kind of feeling the feeling or way through to maybe pursue a different path if she is indeed elected you as president? it's i think she's going to be very much in line with new orleans is may be different about the there is no doubt in couple hours is never left. anybody in doubt about her strong support started support. an iron clad support for is are all in that regard. she is like on the bottom line. yes, it was joe biden who called themselves the irish american scientists, and from liars hasn't gone that far. however, there is no american president, in modern or recent history. you would ever did ever or will ever say that he is not supporting israel when it comes to israel, security posture and so on. however,

it's a little bit more difficult and complicated and complex for her and when it comes to the war. and guys are, of course, as i said, they want to pete the ceasefire here and come out of harris has now the pressure the president doesn't have any more. she is running presumptive candidate for the democratic party or not running for president. that means she has to look out for voters segments who are really, really, really having a keen eye on how she is presenting herself and what she wants. an s, benjamin, it's on you how to do and how this will all affect the war in gaza. this is 750000 votes that and that's just one movement. the uncommitted movement which, you know, came up in the last few months that those borders are valuable for her kamala harris and she wants them back. or reporters defines emails with the latest from washington today, a busy day for you, stuff on. thank you. or or just a quick look now some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. these really military has released further into the operation that recovered

hurts is becoming hot and more dangerous for everyone. everyone is on tony. oh, good. yeah there's, there's speaking type, fluid, k, we have slammed into mainland china where residents are bracing for strong winds and heavy rainfall. the storm is about the trill of devastation killing. at least 3 people as it swept across taiwan or in the philippines. authorities are raising to contain an oil spill that is threatening the capital manila. the storm is triggered, floods in mud slides across the archipelago, killing at least 20 people and injuring hundreds more. a philippine tanker carrying nearly one and a half 1000000 liters of fuel sank after encountering huge waves in manila bank. the accident caused an oil slick stretching for several kilometers. the philippine coast guard launched an operation to contain this bill with floating barriers to stop anymore fuel lifting and prevent a major environmental disaster close to the capital. official said they rescued all,

but one of the crew members in a risky nighttime operation oil spill experts are concerned at the possible implications of a spill in such choppy waters. now what we know about the oil is that it's a really sick or it is what they call bunker from the bunk of fuel on and, and especially if it might not spread some of the other lights organs, but uh, but the problem with it is that it can stick to everything, its very sticky one the, you know, the, the sink or the more it sticks. meanwhile, taiwan said 5 frasers were stranded off the island. and one more had sunk search efforts were ongoing for its missing crew. a tie soon, tammy has left a trail of destruction and several deaths across the philippines. and taiwan. torrential rains have cost severe flooding. residents in the southern city of

calcium scrambled to salvage their belongings, as flood water inundated their homes. it's the strongest tropical storm to hit taiwan and 8 years. now the ty, food is battering mainland china is eastern for john province with strong winds in torrential rain. fixing this home is preparations for the deluge were already well underway and food. yeah. the national marine forecasts are issued. it's 1st red alert of the year plots on the it's the latest storm in a summer of unrelenting weather extremes in china. i want to bring in now monford designs and he is with green piece. mr. johnson is good to have you with this. what are your colleagues in the philippines? what are they telling you about this oil spill? yes. hello, good evening. uh, yeah. what our colleagues say is that, uh, this oil spill could be one of the biggest best uh, we know in the philippine since many, many years. it's almost 1500000 inches off,

or in the tanka, we don't know how much has been released already to the water. but as i mentioned in the report, euflexa visibility, you st westlakes are visible already. i understand this. spill is taking place in manila bay and so it's not out on the open waters of the ocean. talk to me about the implications of that in terms of environmental destruction. uh, it depends on on curtains and, uh, and whether off costs where, where the oil they go to. so if it stays in many lab a, then uh, the effect will be on the environment and that's watches. but us health of money to pay for the top of us, one of the most beautiful underwater equal systems you can imagine. so, but we don't know if the oil even impact that us with. what we can say, of course,

is that birds will be affected, that people will be effective, that the fisherman business will be affected. so it's, it's needs to be cut off. so i know that the climate active is complained that oil companies often do not take responsibility for disasters like this. what can be done in your opinion, to make sure that these oil companies that they pay the bill now that's, that's a very good question. so what, what can be done for all colleagues and, but also not only green people, also many communities called on the government in the philippines to, uh, to the whole, to the, the biggest oil and gas companies responsible and accountable for the conflict frances of touch, boyd spirits, so they have to have to clean up this for you soon, but they also have to pay for the losses and damages. this is one of the of the most important demands that we have right now. yeah. well,

we will certainly stay on the story and see if they do foot the bill here. monitored johnson with greenpeace. mr. johnson, we appreciate your time tonight. thank you. thank you very much. and we're gonna stay in asia to bangladesh. now where restrictions are being lifted after weeks in violent protests over a quote, a system for civil service jobs. and students claim that the quote is discriminate and the scars of this dispute and the reasons for it. they remain very roll as it appears to be business, as usual in the bangladesh. she capital duyka, the temporary lifting of a curfew as a live people back on the street. but the scars of last week's anti government protests can still be found. like here at bangladesh of state television channels, the building was burned down during the week long demonstrations with the information minister,

blaming the opposition for instigating the protesters using the students out got it . that's what the government decides to say. we can sense innovation off a 3rd party who got into it and started attacking the government establishment. many of the government on the public properties this started attacking and also killing rights groups say to bangladesh. the government's response to the demonstrations was heavy handed, as the international cit, bangladesh had witnessed, quote, the deadliest crack down against the protesters in the countries post independence, history, and quote. this has resulted in the depths of close to 200 students, journalists, and bystanders. the government says an investigation will take place. the protests began after quotas and government jobs were reinstated. most of these have now been scrapped on the orders of bangladesh of supreme court. but the demonstrators are

demanding the government to provide answers for the blood. chat of the final countdown to the parents olympics is well and truly on with just hours to go into the opening ceremony behind the excitement locals as well as torres say that they're frustrated by the strict security measures in the french capital. police say the security is necessary for public safety is just ahead of the olympic games . opening ceremony in paris, there's a norm is anticipation and excitement in the french capital. many are looking forward to an atmosphere of celebration way probably a few years. parents is more festive, hectic with lots of tours, but there's also some frustration as locals and tories to like have to deal with the inconvenient security measures are the

authorities, the district security measures are an absolute necessity to protect both spectators and athletes. and many locals agree there with the sellers so much that they're raising here. and friends, friends is of the country of officers along with tens of thousands of soldiers and police patrolling the streets. the french air force is also playing a major part by securing this kinds during the games. finder jets surveillance, drones helicopters that can carry sharp shooters and equipment to disable drones will all be deployed. we have to protect against some commercial laptop that could be used like a weapon low to, to, to reach, to have tried to reach or so it could be used, liked with events and come tell you if these receive up to date. but the free media on, so you a, these are in france and we know of a to a can be a real,

a real or frightful searching events for fridays opening ceremony. a no fly zone, extending some 150 kilometers will be in place around the french capital. and cameras. twins with artificial intelligence software will flag potential security risk, such as abandon packages securing these olympic games is a massive undertaking and comes at an enormous cost. but france has spent the last several years preparing for this moment. any visitors say the appreciate all the efforts to keep them safe. so coming here to paris in seeing the gendarmes, the national police, the presence, it's impressive. it's impressive. so it's something you always have to be concerned about. but knowing, you know, knowing how prepared they are and stuff now i feel i feel safe repairs walking around,

enjoying the city by doing my own kind of chicago. the hope is that all the security efforts will pay off and result in season successful, summer gains for everyone. avoiding the squad to watch the various olympics is the basketball team from south sudan. it's the 1st time the country's team is qualified and these players are the only basketball players from an african nation at the olympics. the team is hoping that this will be a slam dunk for the sport back home. it's the only basketball stadium in south through time coach spa, one of the country's national players is that to watch a local game sound sedan currently has the most successful team in africa. it made headlines at the world cup and it's now qualified for the olympics to compete with the best in the world. around play the why they don't play the or the big never play this or why not play that because that is something that i just, you know, be proud. so supposing sensation and one of africa's poorest countries
