1:03 pm
that there is still an ambulance here. obviously the file, the motion see services are here. the size of these crates that would suggest that it was, in fact, one of the cruisers that had been intersected. we've been speaking to locals in this neighborhood. they said that they heard the siren. go at around, you know, so 6 o'clock this morning. and then they said that it was around about 10 o'clock this morning that they heard at least 2 explosions. and there are a number of other houses that have obviously been damage by the force of this blog post. and they said that when they heard the sirens, they ran to the shelters that are available, have basements of private homes. one man saying that he had around about 35 people that run into the base. and when the sirens went off, we understand that this is one of a number of places in cave or surrounding cave that of suffered damage. we don't
1:04 pm
have any solid information get on what in fact was being targeted. and what, in fact, whether in fact these targets were hit, but what we do know is that all indications would suggest that this is part of most goes campaign, targeting the country's energy infrastructure. and if indeed this is an intercepted missile, it is evidence of the kind of pressures that ukrainian sources are under in trying to win to set these me selves with, with, with their defense system. and it shows you just how vulnerable civilians are across the country. as these attacks continue, we've heard from the kids mer baton, which co, he says only about an hour ago that around 40 percent of the capital city was without electricity. he's told people to charge their devices and store as much water as they can, and we expected expected power cuts already millions of people across this country,

1:06 pm
another person trapped under the rubble here. so yeah, you can imagine the level of fear amongst the people who live in neighborhoods like this. and just to put some white, a context on it these this, this latest barrel just how it places, right, the way across the country. so we look in as far away as live in the west the, the officials in the said that to 2 hours ago at least around 90 percent of lives, electricity was down of also been strikes on parisha, denise pro or desa also. so yeah, this is certainly one of the largest, if not the largest of, of the biology that we've seen over the last 2 and a half months. and we'll just turn around here and leave you with some of the show to some of the locals coming back to, to inspect what we understand of their homes or their friends home checking on

1:09 pm
long been raised over the regions lacks health and safety regulations. barbara anger per hour to sarah. several people have been escorted out of israel's parliament after they disrupted an address by prime minister designate benjamin the yahoo. it happened shortly after the kinetic convened. that's where the new government is set to be sworn in later on thursday. now, some protested, tried to drown out netanyahu speech, but were removed from the building. is block one the november election and formed a coalition government that's in the are who has picked to embezzle? small rich as the finance minister, the leader of the far right religious design as parties, both israeli settlements and occupied palestinian territory even though the illegal under international law. it's a mob been given who was convicted of incitement to racism in 2007 will be security minister law pass this week will give him unprecedented power over the police force
1:10 pm
of remote says a religious nationalist known for anti l g b t q views will hold the deputy post in the education ministry, and natalie himself is still on trial for alleged bribery fraud and breach of trust . while he has always maintained his innocence, we have 2 reporters on this story. human outside is in garza. she'll bring us the palestinian reaction to the new government and just a few minutes before that's considered cyber kyra, who's outside the connected in west jerusalem. good. see this morning. so let's just start with the timeline of what has been happening and what will continue to happen through the day. yeah, well today is a big day because it's the swearing in of the new israeli government. it's the formation of this government is very much different to any of the other governments before. it's the most ultra orthodox, ultra jewish, ultra nationalist coalition with a recruit policy which has sent as a seats in the government. now the author of the day is that the incoming prime
1:11 pm
minister benjamin netanyahu has also been the longest serving prime minister in israeli history, is bought, keys may come back. he'll be born in, along with the new ministers and new coalition members. he's already been speaking just he didn't really talk about some of the controversial policies, new policies that have been outlines in the last 24 hours now. missing yahoo mostly focused on social problems or social issues such as the high cost of living. he said that he promises that he will bring down prices and help israelis who are facing a tough time economically. and also he focused on some of his achievements his previous achievements as prime minister. then we also heard. c from the outgoing prime minister who is also going to be now the opposition. he was talking as well about his achievements, especially during the current of ours pandemic. so not really touching on also the
1:12 pm
controversial issues which a lot of israelis are here just behind me at the can. that's the processing already because some of those policies have been brought in with new knows that are giving a sweeping powers to individuals. that at some point was the fringe leaders of parties, whether it's the ultra nationalist parties or the jewish orthodox. very right wing policies and that being given sleeping power. for example, the been given law which was passed yesterday, give him more authority over the police. now the police has always been an entity in its own policy. at the end of the day, the government has the final say, but it's never had a civilian effectively overseas, such a big department. and then you have other laws that has come in, you for the very know as well as this much rich know which both as well give people that have had past convictions, the ability to become ministers. of course that also might potentially pay way for
1:13 pm
someone likeness and yahoo, who has an ongoing corruption case, even though he is coming in as prime minister perhaps that may change the course of the judiciary system in israel. now there, all those concerns i've been discussing with decisions that will pass through in the last 48 hours as part of an agreement with the coalition. that these stipulations needed to be done ahead of the swearing and, and even this morning some of those decisions were still being formed. now we're going to be seeing the naming of the new minister, some of them off from the posse, not all of them, but we'll just see what happens ahead. is this a different lesson, yahoo that was saying this time round hops. he says that that is going to be a red line drawn on certain issues that he has to be consulted 1st and foremost and for people not to be concerned. but they're all concerns. for example, when it comes to the palestinians, one of the top policies that was outlines yesterday was. 6 what the situation is
1:14 pm
with the excitement of israeli settlements, especially in the history some in the west bank. so a lot remains to be seen and as the wearing and will be taking place in a few hours time. so retired force in west response cars over to you now said he's in garza and obviously people that will be watching, i'm sure, and listening very intently as to what is being said in the connected. but what's the reaction of the ruling? how much party the, where you are here. so we got to read a reaction from hammers, sir, on the, on the tongue of its senior political leaders. as the 100, he said, that hammers believes that this government is the far right extreme government that adopts a lot of criminal, our ideas and plans to extend the occupy, occupying of for the west bank by confiscating further policy. and lands and estate
1:15 pm
are changing the status co of jerusalem and dicing, jerusalem outputs. he also said that a mass expects the international community to state its position from this extremist government, especially that it holds or includes some of those extremist members that are known under international law to be against international law and against the international community positions at all. so as you have it stated, that hamis is ready to confront all kind of aggression that will be possessed by this new extremist, a government towards the policy. and people for their part here are political analysts, see godsa have seen the situation that you believe that this new government is going to be extending or carrying further military,
1:16 pm
our confrontations and escalations in the west bank. it is also going to change or are going to be working on the changing of the status quo of jerusalem. and mostly what they think according to these analysts here, is that the netanyahu's new government won't be looking forward to us. a prisoners swapped deal with hammers, and this is in order to guarantee see long term fees fire in order to also guarantee or exclude garza from any israeli confrontation in the near future. ok. but they also said that if this prisoner trapped deal did not happen very soon, this might actually cause an upcoming confrontation. you now said that 4th in gaza . thank you. 2 more had here on the news are including we look at the worst thing
1:17 pm
coming situation level and home place to make it harder to get the basic necessities and dramatic video out of south career after a traffic accident sets a highway a blade. ah, the u. s has joined a growing list of countries imposing restrictions on travelers from china as facing eases corona virus policies. as of january, the 5th all passengers coming from china even via 3rd country, will have to produce a negative cobra. 1900 test. similar measures have been announced in italy, taiwan, india, malaysia, and japan. american health officials are concerned the beijing isn't sharing data on possible evolving strains or whitehouse corresponding can be health that has more although by new ministration is concerned that the chinese government is not being fully transparent with regard to the number of infections that are occurring
1:18 pm
in china with the lifting of those restrictions and so as a result is putting in place strict measures for those who are traveling from china as well as macau and hong kong and what those measures are going to look like is effective midnight on january 5th. all travelers are going to need to show a negative code 19 tests. this is either a p c r or an average, a test within 48 hours of departure. and this is regardless of vaccination status. and this is for all travelers above the age of 2 years. now the reason for this is not only because of the concern that the chinese government is not being fully transparent in terms of the data is providing to the united states. but also because the united states feels in the absence of the day that it is not fully able to monitor sort of the, i'm a crime, very attendance sub variance that are already present in the united states. and the
1:19 pm
fear is that this is something that could be on the rise as a result. and so this is something that the united states is doing as a precaution. and we should point out that this is also going to affect travelers coming from canada as well. because a lot of these travelers are transiting through canada. officially, china recorded only one caveat. 19 related death on wednesday, despite reports of hospitals and funeral homes being overwhelmed should get good children. you can, fisher, all countries go through the stations when they adjust their coffee, the policy, china is no exception. currently china, the p w tuition is all predictable and under control. beijing is the 1st city to pause the peak of infections. work and life are going back to normal. now. chinese authorities have also conducted scientific assessments and made necessary preparations for a possible search. in other provinces. we have full confidence in ensuring a smooth and orderly transition. global inflation has rocketed in 2022 level
1:20 pm
rank 2nd in a world bank assessment of countries hardest hit by global food price inflation, that's been driven partly by the war in ukraine. but even before this is economy and currency were in free, full in order explains many lebanese now use motorcycle and the absence of a well organized public transport system and the rise in global fuel prices. it's the most affordable way to get around. the sharp evaluation of the local currency has made the situation worth a tank of fuel costs more than the minimum wage, which used to be the equivalent of $450.00. now it's not even worth $20.00. basic necessities are out of reach for many, especially since the nearly bankrupt state lifted subsidies on food and medicine last year. which is no work. we try to sell whichever we can so that we can eat and
1:21 pm
drink. life is unbearable. authorities blame global inflation and the fall out from russia's invasion of ukraine. but levon on also has its own problems. while we have inflation living on the f, 160 percent as recent figures, so you have 90 percent related to the live and use inflation while 10 percent maybe related to the worldwide efficient. this is mainly because of the collapse of the new phone. we have been thinking just to cover for the government expenses. the government is hoping to increase revenues by hiking customer taxes. but economists warn the decision will cause a 5 to 10 percent spike in inflation in a country that relies heavily on imports. food prices have already increased by 700 percent since 2019 lebanon is one of the country is worth affected by the rise in global food prices. according to the world bank, it is 2nd,
1:22 pm
the only system bob boyd. the situation has deteriorated so much that the world food program says it is planning to feed up to 2000000 people. that's a 3rd of the population, including $1000000.00 refugees from syria. other agencies say they now provide cash assistance instead of focusing on development. a lot of families are not having to or female per day anymore, so having only one means per day to be able to afford this one meal per day. they have to sacrifice or the rest. it means they cannot access health care and estimated 15 to 30 percent of families receive help from relatives abroad. nearly $7000000000.00 entered the country this year, but just does little to address a crisis that has already made for out of every 5 lebanese poor santa who they are osha theater. they root well as the cost of living rises, in most cases it's the pull who pay the biggest price. the cost of living increased
1:23 pm
by just less than 5 percent in 2021. this year the international monetary fund says it will average nearly 9 percent economists are pointing to the impact of the war with crane and supply issues. but there is some light at the end of the tunnel. the i m f expect simulation to drop slightly to 6.5 percent next year. as partly because central banks are increasing interest rates. we should curb spending. however, higher rates are also making borrowing more expensive. the downward trend looks set to continue in 2024 with prices climbing above 4 percent. william really is a chief economist at milken institute to join me now via skype from los angeles. could help you with us on the program. the global crisis itself, countries in the populations of facing 1st began in recent times, you might say at the start of the cobra pandemic. and then that was the fiscal stimulus needed to get out of it and help businesses and employees recover enter
1:24 pm
inflation, which has been the phone in the side all that recovery. oh absolutely, and in fact, i think you use characterize the quite well we have a global inflation problem, but it manifests itself very differently in different countries in united states. yes, it was mostly because people had so much money because of their stimulus checks. during coven, that and, and the supplies are so constrained by broken, global supply chains that people just had one more stuff than there was available to buy by around the world, especially in the emerging market, especially lebanon. it has really been manifest as a shortage of food, a very expensive energy prices, mainly due to the war ukraine and in lebanon in particular, because it's infrastructure has somewhat collapsed and the food storage areas have totally disappeared. so, so many emerging market countries are now suffering from what's not just inflation, which is truly the cruelest tax on the poor. what is also suffering from food
1:25 pm
safety and energy shortage crises are the very different characteristics we have that brings me very neat, contort. you've already mentioned was, is the war in ukraine and its consequences, you know, the restriction of fuel now to certain countries, certainly those that have embargoed to a certain extent, russian fuel. the rise in commodities, the price rising commodities of sunflower oil. as we saw the big debate about grain exports, which have begun back out of ukraine. but only just these are all impacting. you might say in, in various ways because you don't have the energy. you don't have the chance to run factories which process other types of food stuffs and products that people need. hence, the vicious circle is continuing, but not just in the food area. oh absolutely, and it's not just that, but also the production of food, the because of the price, high price of energy is also a shortage of potash, which is basic ingredient in all fertilizers. so even when, when we have
1:26 pm
a resolution to the war in russia and ukraine, you don't take a while for the supply chain to be restored. covian has made the situation even worse. manufacturing supply chains are so closely tied to china that the fate of the chinese recovery is also a very important element in whether or not we have an easy of inflation going forward. and we'll have to see about that. but in the middle east, particular that is so dependent upon import, so of both manufacturing and agricultural produce, the importing countries will be suffering quite tremendously. but of course, there are some countries in the least them doing quite well to what the energy exporters, the people who can export in dollars on top dollar denominated commodities. those structures actually will do quite well. yeah. cost you about that because dollar a finance is a is quite important. is the impulse to next bull, because i say if you're an energy producing company and you're dealing in dollars, you know, you'll, you'll mentoring it to a certain extent. but if you're
1:27 pm
a country like lebanon, which has to import food in dollars than you really do have a problem. so is this impacting in certain parts of the world more so than others? oh, absolutely. the emerging market countries, the i m f, devised the world that emerge of american markets into essentially dollar exporters and dollar importers. that the highly indebted countries, especially the border heavily in euro's or in dollars. they have to pay their debt, service in foreign currency. it's earned the foreign currency, they really have to be able to earn through exports. but if they are exporting in, in products that are not denominated dollars, then they're going to have a very hard time making ends meet. and these are the countries in particular that are going to the i m f and getting aid from the i m f as well as the world bank. interesting time, certainly it willingly. really good to get your insight on the subject. we can invite you back again in the not too distant future. thanks for joining us from los

angeles. phil had here on the news on just a fraction of young native americans are going to college. many call to thought it, but some say they don't trust the system after history of colonial abuse. ah, the, who's the here's her headlines for europe in africa. nice to have you long let starting iberia, where this band of rain is feeding in some warmer air. but steady and heavier abouts of rain, north of lisbon, also across areas of france, including paris. ok, temperatures have come down a bit across ireland and britain. so that means it's those temperatures dipped down through the overnight certainly could see as some ice accumulate here, after central europe, exceptional warm sears and showers along the eastern shores of the adria exceed. let's take a look at the 3 day forecast for crecia capitals that grab we shoot up to 16

1:31 pm
a book about, you're watching over, lisa, rama, reminder of all the top stories here on the news i'll forward season ukraine's a. russia has struck several regions and a major missile attack. 3 people are reported to have been wounded in the capitol. keith, the man of leave says 90 percent of the city is without power. several people are being killed in a fire in cambodia as a hotel casino on the board with thailand, dozens of been injured and taken to hospital for treatments. several people have been sorted out as well, parliament after they disrupted an address by the prime minister designate benjamin netanyahu. it happened shortly after the committee convened. that's where the new government is set to be sworn in later on. thursday, subs who's been protesting in northern kosovo,
1:32 pm
have agreed to remove road barricades. now they've been demonstrating for weeks against the detention of a former police officer. roads have been blocked with trucks and tractors, and some of the protests, 10 violent serbian president alexander church. many members of the cost of a community on wednesday hoping to ease those tensions to the very latest from missiles southern joins us now from pristina and russell tension 10th negotiation. should i say, between the president and protested which, who had hoped to resolve the impasse. i mean, cultivated seems to what seems to have happened during the last few hours in that area. well, as of now that this, this distribution here is still quite town so that the roads are blog, their, the barricades are racked it. andy, the gates are a steel or close here. so a yesterday, there was an attempt between the parties here,
1:33 pm
the president of serbia and asunder woodridge came to the border and mad the that the leaders of the serbian community in kosovo. and i was later here announced that they have agreed to, to remove the barricades and to open the the roads here. however, later in the night around 3 am in the morning or some one or some people have set fire on some trucks. and that process has reversed the da da da da da piece false between their parties. and so the cause of an authority is here, are see that they are still investigating to find out who was behind this. i did this set in fire on the trucks and they said that as of now the initial findings are showing that some pro caterers were behind at this act, but we can see that as of now, none of the barricades are removed. the at the roads are still blocked and did the gates are still closed. so we see that situation is still tant, here, every tin is steal, fragile, and any time it can escalate again, it is. i mean,
1:34 pm
beyond the immediate flash point that we're discussing there, i, we assume there has been intense diplomatic communication between both casa though and serbia. what are you hearing about that? if anything at all while did, did the whole crisis started the wrong 2 months ago, when did the did the, the course of an authority of the government year issued a decision saying that any cod licensed place shall be issued by the course of an authorities and that they are going to cancel those will be in there, which has been issued by the serbian authority. and that created a huge fuss among did the serbian community here. so after that, you have seen that the protest erupted, and that was, had been blog barricades have been sat up there, sees that want to force a start at the will initiated, particularly by the european union and the united states. so yesterday there had been cause between the officials from the, you know, european union, their serbian president, alexander woodridge,
1:35 pm
and also the american officials. they have agreed that they gave guarantees to their serbian government that none of this served a member of the 7 community cor. so are going to be arrest based on dad. so they have agree to, to, to read sure, to remove the barricades. but as i said, it didn't work so far. so now the germany and france, they're seeing that they're going to send a special envoys by the 1st of january to co. so we're to, to, to, to, to start to, to initiate the diplomacy between the serbian and co sovereign sides. here of m a, one of the other important player is russia, russia starting from south start of the, the crisis on, has expressed is support to the serbian government. and the fear here is that russia might be who'd be at disrupt that in this whole process. but the nash could it that the creation of a 2nd frond in that's a front of the war in europe after the war in you can. and that definitely is something that the international committee is very much afraid of. seen the source
1:36 pm
of the forest sin pristine. a thanks very much for that update that's bringing some more on israel's new coalition government. our top story that said to be sworn in later on thursday. so now several policy guidelines stating that the jewish people have an exclusive right to all land. and this means it'll continue to develop settlements in occupied palestinian territory. the government plans to retroactively legalize illegal posts in the occupied westbank and the coalition says it will restore what it calls the proper balance between the legislature, executive and you discovery which critic see as an attempt to undermine the supreme court. it also wants to preserve the heritage and jewish character of the state, but as pledge to respect the practices and traditions of all religions. and that it says that means a status quo on religion and state,
1:37 pm
including holy sites will remain off because this is a classic member and also member of the dash to long list. he joins us now from jerusalem. good talk with us on the program. so from your point of view, what direction is israel heading into a very denture direction? i'd be very plans going today. why me coming to the old isn't going to be a community must be a level that is this one, but the public will force to choose after successive coalition. governments couldn't really last to the course again.
1:38 pm
sorry, did anyone sick coalition governments have not managed to stay the course unstable in government long enough to make appropriate you might say, moves and changes to what israel should be. do you think the public only had this choice left and the latest election? no, actually i think the last government, the so called changed on it was almost any form of money. i think part of the blame it blame, but the county governments will be good. they're really not function was due to the patient that will be out the last should be the
1:39 pm
way to live in a book if you don't do it just don't support. ready any of the nation will never change on that. i never got shocked. have to look into your mistakes and does it. so it gets got down the bottom of the muscle here. now, you can still keep patient in order kind of and they understand that it go, but you cannot, you know, between going up your ration of the way down the under the what's going on with you. and everybody has to understand the dimensions of the community,
1:40 pm
particularly the so called west given most so do. and i will demonstrate ation success of we will not need because it doesn't do anything against the government the this mission and whether it's the time for the community your won't teach religion you me to do battle with your body. if you want to relax, you must do something to i don't to patient. and of course, you bet you said very eloquently right now, but that we have to ask the question, has the messaging from the liberal side of israeli politics? did the messaging go wrong during the election? because you obviously have an argument that should be listened to. you will obviously as, as a, as, as the left wing,
1:41 pm
part of politics and israeli life and listened to by the americans and the west. but you weren't heard by the israeli people when it came to the ballot box. do you have to look towards yourselves as well as the how you going to improve that situation with the israeli public? absolutely. so and again, i don't see them even as long as he's not then he'll against the page and say your patient, they won't be paid for the and that's one. i'm going to fight another week. the 3 be now not so called, then they succeeded in those elections very much,
1:42 pm
