officials say the numbers will only rise if the fighting continues. you know, they are affecting civilians if that can premises this event areas, nobody knows what would happen in the coming few hours for that reason. this is an appealing fact to extend the helping hands immediately through. so pricing gets a sort of price now. and you know, of course, the electricity web truck shortly kristy it's declared. now that will be on me 4 hours a day, and 12 hours of electricity, which means that we would rely in the house, goes on generators, generators will consume, like half 1000000 liters every month. we do not have this bill right now. look at all our skies this what we have and nobody knows what will happen in the coming buildings. the last word has caused a wide spread of devastation. urine, because this trip a year later, almost no reconstruction has been made. the eyes, the late at coastal territory, is impoverished and the people are hardly recovery the fear of another round of

or is it saying that this will continue, that they're not the point of stopping yet these re be line on this is that they're going after islamic jihad at targets. within garza, they're also looking to hit at things like weapon storage. i'm rocket launchers, they say that they just here and gone after a rocket launcher at. and that's what's been happening throughout the night. so saying that they're not letting islamic jihad set. the agenda here is when you're ready to continue to cost the occupied westbank. israel says it has arrested 19 members of the islamic jihad group troops rated sites in the city of janine and the calendar area south of ramallah. the group has indicated it will retaliate. se, now is the time to resistance. not a truce. aah! taiwan. as china's show of force around its waters, is getting more menacing. a taiwanese defense ministry says after 2 days of

posturing, chinese aircraft and warships have now rehearsed an attack on the island. it also says the chinese fleet crossed the unofficial buffer in the taiwan strait, which separates the 2 sides. china has been staging its biggest ever military drills off taiwan coast for years. how speaker nancy pelosi as decision to visit the island. beijing, as it is taiwan, part of its territory, and as the trip violated its one china policy. typical pollen is the international editor of taiwan plus. she explains why there could be a wider security threat. those i thought outlying islands are the closest point you can get to mainland china. in fact, one of them can men is only about 10 kilometers away from poor john province. now they're used to seeing this kind of activity around a military activity from china and seeing that, that kind of intimidation in that area. but this time at china's also focusing,

as we know, it's military drills not just in those areas, but also on the main island. in fact, this morning, the ministry of defense said that the, china's cray to the scenario with his exercises, where it's simulating an attack on the main island of taiwan, which is where the capital is. and this all comes to ass. anthony blinkin has confirmed and the u. s has announced that china's broken off all communications on certain issues with the u. s. and those issues include military, that's of great worry, of course for taiwan. because the u. s. is time, once main ally, and in addition to that, the united states why law has to help tie one protect itself. should there be a war scenario. so having those communications broken at a time and these military exercises are taking place, it's of great concern right now. anti government protested in lanka, gathered in colombo, in defiance of a crackdown by security forces. it comes a day after one of their main camp sites was dismantled, the angry about an economic crisis that showing no signs of ending, despite

far. let's see how many more, but we won't give up the fight. this struggle is for a system change, and we will continue the fight. but at the protest, many told al jazeera, there won't let the crack down stop, then let me out. and actually i was hunger, i'm there. jag, behind and we will not give up the struggle. we won't stop till we when we're telling, ron neil roger pucks are very clearly we will not be scared by your repression. we will only get stronger and stronger in response to it. of the government is this islands them us that they also see it won't work. we are not having got rid of one president. they say they won't be intimidated by his replacement. so melendez, my other 0 is the law company. lightening has struck a crude oil storage facility in western cuba, sparking a huge blaze that's injured, at least 80 people and left 17 firefighters missing. emergency crews have been trying to extinguish the flames at the mountains. us super tanker base since friday

been training on virtual firing ranges on hanjin reports from keith. no, this is modern warfare, ukrainian style. it might look like a video game. in fact, it is made by a ukrainian gaming company, but is serious business. since july, ukraine's military has started setting up or keyed style centers to train its troops. soon they hope to have a virtual training center like this in every brigade shooting range has, has been targeted by russians, rockets, so, and these are very mug, while you can set them up in any other room or underground facility. and it saw a lot cheaper. this next generation light anti tank weapon, for example, cost more than $30000.00. and it's a single use item. use it once it's finished. when i was training that i it, it took me for shops to finally start getting into the target. ah,

which is a lot of money. it's not yours, expensive ukraine's army doesn't have that kind of ammunition to spare. so more time on this range means more accuracy down range. weapons designed to take out large targets like this tank are often expensive and require a lot of space to fire. so laser training makes sense, but when it comes to urban combat with close up, small arms fire, there's really no substitute for the real thing. live fire on a shooting range. these ukrainian territorial defense for soldiers are aiming for constant improvement because fall, but if i motivation this is civil in tears, all of them. ah, and this is not the conscript like taken from the street, but throws as a i every one came here ah, on zag good vill to protect our homeland. they are battle hardened,
