am he to stay within bo, how with your sport man said he's earling, harlan baghdad. try to help his team. same wolves, 3 know at league leaders also will overcome manchester. you i had for you to get a thoroughly premier league encounter. ah, we begin in california where police of surrounded a suspect following a mass shooting. it happened during luna new year's celebrations near the city of los angeles. an image of the suspect has also been released. officers have been investigating whether the suspected gunman fled the crime scene in a white cargo van. at least 10 people were killed at a ballroom dance, hold in monterey park. 10 others were injured. police say some are in a critical condition. monterey park is home to a lodge asian community and thousands of people had gathered near by for
12:03 am
a lunar new year festival. he had a vehicle that was described as a white glove box van, i guess you'd say van of interest. and there's a van that looks just like what we was described to us in the city of torrance. it's a barricaded suspect situation. we are working with one of our partner agencies, a torrence police department to resolve that. ah, we believe there is a person inside of that vehicle. we don't know their condition, but we're going to handle that in the safest manner. rob rentals joins us live from the scene of the shooting in monterey park, california and rob. not too far away from where you're standing in a place called torrance. i understand it is where these live pictures have been coming from that we've been watching all a police swat squad entering. in fact,
12:04 am
the white transit van bring us up to date with what's been going on there. ha. that's right. jonah torrance is 48 kilometers a south west of of where we are now in monterey park. a for several hours police vehicles had surrounded this white van that police said was believed to be linked to the mass shooting of 10 people. fatalities, 10 fatalities here on saturday night. and now things are moving very, very quickly. at this moment. police have just entered the van. ah, they do not appear to be um, ah, acting defensively. oh, and earlier pictures that we saw of the van taken from the drivers side showed what appeared to be a figure slumped over the steering wheel and a bullet hole in the driver's side window. so it looks quite possible that we will
12:05 am
find out shortly officially from the police that if this was indeed the suspect which police have not said it was and they have not named him. but if this was the person who carried out this crime, ah, he may have taken his own life and then, and thus, the man hunt that was under way across southern california has come to an end again . we don't know that for sure. this is all happening right now, so hopefully we'll get some more information from the los angeles county sheriff's department that's taken the lead on this. just to give you a little background on what happened. i last night, saturday night late around 1030 ballroom dancing studio. right behind me here, full of people, most of them, elderly people of asian heritage. they were, they were dancing and someone came in with a weapon that so far police have not described. 10 people died on the scene and
12:06 am
were pronounced dead shortly thereafter. 5 men, 5 women, 10 people taken to hospital in varying condition, some a gravely wounded shortly after that at another dance studio. in another town that's not far from here. a man entered there with a weapon, but patrons disarmed him. he fled and, and the man hunt was on. so these all seem to be related. police do believe that they are related and as for motive, this is the big question. there are a lot of rumors flying around in the community on social media and in whatsapp groups and, and then facebook groups and so forth. and people that i have spoken with who believe that this must have been some kind of a domestic incident. someone who was upset, oh, with someone at the ball room. ah, but we don't have that confirmed at this point. what seems to be less likely
12:07 am
is this as is that this was an anti asian hate crime. something that it's targeting asian american residence because of course the man himself was of the same ethnic group. so we will find out where shortly. i think once the police have gathered enough information to tell us what they know and then we'll be able to bring you that information as soon as we possibly can. rob, thanks for all that. i appreciate. there isn't an awful lot more that you can probably tell us, but we're looking still at 5 pictures coming from torrance, where armed police are still gathered around to the police vehicles heading in that white transit van. but i must say the so the air of urgency seems to have passed compared to what we've been looking at for the last hour and a half or so as they prepared to store that vehicle. they have now entered the vehicle and as a say, it no longer looks like
12:08 am
a situation of the threat. rob for now appreciate that. there isn't an awful lot more that you can tell us. i'm sure we'll talk to you very shortly when you hear more from the police. now to somalia, where 6 civilians have been killed in an al chabarise attack. targeting the mayor's office in the capitol, mogadishu, police say all the attackers were killed. the attackers set off the bomb, then stormed the building, leading to a fire fight with security forces. at least 19 other people were injured. in the assault on the offices, will journalist mohammed garbo b was close to the blast in mogadishu? a block or so away, and then one or 2 explosions that follow one after another. then followed by gunfire. after going fire, as you can assume that it can chaos. and then the situation began to unfold the kind of a response to the attack. and they were attacking the municipality,
12:09 am
of course, which is equivalent to be sure city all the whole of the office for the mayor, the district officials meet their local security official, reside, meet there. so, and what many people believe is that the reason that place was attacked was because it's a high value. it's hard because it's a government building. i think that should address still a factor is still a factor that exists. and i think we need to be honest about because the government has been launching a full blown military offensive. and different part of the country is to shout. but the ship are still able to strike targets and will be sure will inside of government. as you see what i'm holding today, i believe is that what the government is doing today, i think they over estimated their capabilities in the war and because they've
12:10 am
decided to take the warranty and the rule, countryside, southern and central, somebody here. but they're struggling to protect key infrastructure in the shoot. gotta tell you, there is something wrong with the government policy. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has fired a key ally and cabinet minister dairy after the supreme court ruled he couldn't serve because of a tax fraud. conviction dairy was appointed health and interior minister last month as part of a coalition deal. his leader of the ultra orthodox shots party, which is the 3rd largest member of the coalition. nathan, yahoo has promised to find a legal way for his key ally to retain some influence in israeli politics. it's being reported that there will retain his title of vice premier and his ministerial roles will go to members of his party. while israel's opposition is called on netanyahu to respect the court's decision, former prime minister year law, p warned that not doing so would be breaking the law. marcia williams,
12:11 am
the lawman shall always say, he's not a government as a circus. netanyahu is weak and he needs to appoint a full time help and interior minister, the cabinet meeting today, minister dairy was quiet because of corruption. because well, nathan, yahoo has described the ruling to 5 very as regrettable and indifferent to the public will. in 1999, there was sentence to 3 years in jail for taking bribes. he returned to politics in 2012. last year he was convicted of tax fraud as part of a plea bargain. he agreed to leave the connecticut in return for a lighter sentence, but he then ran again in november's election and his party joined. nathan, the whose coalition there is appointment, went ahead after the new government passed legislation allowing anyone convicted but not given a custodial sentence to become a minister. critic said this could also help nathan yahoo with his ongoing criminal cases. he's currently standing trial for bribery fraud and breach of trust charges
12:12 am
. he denies. the rifling government has also laid out plans to overhaul the judiciary, which of sparked mass protests. they include handing more powers to politicians, to appoint judges, and override supreme court decisions. or iran con has more now from west jerusalem . what we're hearing is that prime minister benjamin netanyahu had a stage manage the firing of aria dairy. he's a very crucial ally. he's part of the coalition shas or his party have by 11 lawmakers within the coalition. if they in anger had actually pulled out, he would have been a killer blow to the government and potentially another election in israel. so that all of that had to be staged mileage and this is why we're hearing that it took a 4 days to actually get round to firing, but the firing actually did take place today. however, pri, mr. benjamin netanyahu was a fuson. he actually said that he was fight, trying to find a way back for area dairy to get back into the government. now the deal,
12:13 am
the likely deal has been made between charles and natalia, who will include shaft taking a shelf politician taking over aria dairies of position. he's the chairman of the shells party, so it will be one person replacing the other. it is a very big blow to him to, to benjamin netanyahu, though, because he is trying to currently via the justice minister or strip the courts of this kind of power, the power to reverse parliamentary decisions. now it was a 10 to one ruling by the supreme court, or did litty gritty of it? is it? there were lots of various different decisions. but overarching decision was in a year ago when ari dory was convicted of tax violations. he act, he said to the court, i will not pursue a career in politics. the court agreed on that and it was on that basis that you know, he had a reduced sentence when he stepped back into the court remains found to be into politics. rather, he's found to be in contempt of that deal and that's why it was such an
12:14 am
overwhelming ruling whether kiva elder is a political analyst and author, he joins us live from tel aviv good to happy with us. it's a pretty an edifying spectacle. this isn't it? around the sort of start of an already controversial government or senior minister sacked because of fraud. convictions, promises to allow him to retain some political influence and indeed his title. or how important is this in terms of the trajectory of this new government and what happens next? i believe that the interest so for our dairy queen, sideways on those on it and you know, and they will find a way as jerry himself said. and if you look at the door, i will come through the window and if you close the window, i will find
12:15 am
a way to come back from the roof. and, and even if for dairy will not carry the title of minister. he will be there as the p which you leave there as the chief rabbi owe for a shot of his quality and he will call the shots. so and in the meantime day, we'll try to find a way to, wow, this are what they call the reform the judiciary reform, which is actually, or what it has that in colon is wizard. pollution is the letters are indeed, ah, and the year government will try to tailor the and you lost his israel. doesn't have a constitution in europe that will fit the interest offer and i'm afraid
12:16 am
serial criminals. you seem to be suggesting or describing a scenario there in which politicians in israel, in this new government consider themselves to be above the law. and if not, they'll change the law to fit yeah. actually join and their interpretation of the low and if you will, democracy is we there thinks it all. if dairy argues that $400000.00 is re lease voted for him, who are they? 10 out of 11 supreme court judges. true that he doesn't fit to be a minister. and what day ending now is to rock the boat and change the balance of power off the democratic pillars.
12:17 am
and now the next it, which is ruled by the majority, the coalition then the government, which is ruled by mister nathaniel and to override the law and in the supreme court as they did in the case of very a rule that it's illegal to what they did and it's not so to speak, constituent considering me. and then they have the power to change the law because in democratic elections they go to majority. actually, it's not even true because if you see what happens in the last few weeks into the more spacious, you will find that many people who voted for the code and want to know argues, is that they knew that i'm going to reform to democratic sister and actually to
12:18 am
turn it into a new regime. it's not true because it's a complete surprise even to people who voted to delete good. and yesterday you could even see a woman she was interviewed and television whole is observing shot box. and she said, 1st started in my life, i went on the bus because this is a time of emergency. all is normally david grossman said, this is the time of darkness. hockey vowed i will have to leave it there. thanks very much for your insights. thank you. john and coming up on this news out from london, france and germany's leaders seek to reset relations strained by ukraine. they celebrate the 60 of friendship between their countries. from seat belts to tax finds a difficult week for richie sudak, as the scandals plaguing britons,

12:22 am
al jazeera keith and there's been some encouraging news for ukraine about germany's tanks. german foreign minister and alina burbock has told french television. germany will not stand in the way if poland decides to send its leper 2 tanks to ukraine, french president emmanuel macro has been hosting german chancellor, all of sholtes in paris for the 1st face to face franco, german summit since 2019 several 100 politicians from both countries attended sundays gathering, which focused on security energy. and of course the war in ukraine and saw to pave over divisions between the 2 nations. bernard smith reports now from paris. the alliance between france and germany is often described as the engine of the european union. it had been sputtering since last year when emmanuel micron cancelled this meeting after a series of disagreements with berlin over defense and energy policy in the wake of
12:23 am
the war in ukraine. differences that affect policy making in the rest of the e. u. every time when there is a major decision to be taken, the 2 countries may have different approaches, but in the end, it's only when they agree that the 27th can agree. so we are in that process at the moment on different issues. one is obviously the ukraine war and how to support ukraine or, and we've seen in recent days that jennifer charles has been under a lot of criticism for his reluctance to send thanks to her to ukraine and from the german chancellor on sunday. still no commitment that he'll give you crane what it wants. it was out the us is doing a lot. germany is also doing a lot. we have constantly expanded our supplies with very effective weapons that are already available to day. and we've always closely coordinated all these decisions with all our important allies and friends with france, for example,
12:24 am
with the us with other major countries in europe. and of course, with all those who participate in this discussion about emanuel micron, says france is not ruled out sending its tanks, but needs to consider 3 criteria didn't bah, governance will be due. firstly, as we have been able to do since the beginning, that it does not escalate. secondly, data could bring will effective support our ukranian friends. yeah. and for this we must consider the capacity to maintain them in operational conditions and training . both leaders reaffirmed a commitment to support ukraine as long as necessary latvia lithuania, and estonia of added to the calls from other countries to send tanks to ukraine, piling the pressure on berlin. the new german defense minister says he'll visit keith soon. he can expect one subject to dominate the agenda. bernard smith, al jazeera paris. julian, however, is a european policy specialist editor of the french dispatch. and he's also
12:25 am
a member of president microns renee sans party. joining us live from brussels now the think back 1213 years or so to the last time the you are, the european union was in a, in real crisis. you had the anglo merkel nicholas or cozy partnership to very different politicians who got on and got on with the job pretty well now. crisis again, a war in europe and that power couple, well that's a rather different looking relationship. how serious are these are concerns about a rift or, or are they overblown? do you think? i think in many ways there are of a blend. when extends, i mean back in october last year there was a very real situation that could have spilled into a very dangerous situation. but now things have stabilized. and remember that there are lots of similarities and points in common between manual micro and all of schultz such as the wish to push for more southern europe and increasing the
12:26 am
investments in defense and european industry. so why do you think people talk about a rift and why do they highlight concerns about how important it is that france and germany and their 2 leaders, although sholpes and their manual macros in this case, are able to work in lock step together. i mean, just de you said it perfectly is because it's so important that when there's even the slightest tension, it becomes very newsworthy and very worrying too many people. i mean geopolitically, let's be honest. d s d p and the sides of things have very different ideas of how to go about achieving the common goals that we have in minds. and if we're entirely honest, oh, last angland nor could nicholas tacos. he had similarities in the ideologies. whereas emmanuel, my crime shows are different than their actual gees despite having common goals and also different temperaments. which means that any problems comes across far bigger
12:27 am
than it actually is. where is the common ground between them? where do they need to move towards dealing to portray an image? all the unity between this power couple at the front of the politics and actually get things done. so 1st of all, as i said, there's a lot of similarities and a lot of cohesion on the topics of increasing european sovereignty, dealing with d. r currents, economic plan of joe biden, the states and finding a european solution to this that combines all the efforts of european states investing fervor in defense and industries. so making sure that european defense is up to scratch and also that the european industry can compete on the global sale. however, one of the big things that has caused some issues is how to go about insuring a european sovereignty. and particularly st chick autonomy, for example, mccaul favors an u sovereignty fund that finances investments across the u, but olaf schultz and the s t p are against this because the fact that effectively
12:28 am
this would lead to more european debt, which has always been a german red line, no matter who the chancellor has been, and this is something where they don't have to work the ever. but if we are entirely honest, the role of the franco german engine is to lead the way, take on the tough discussions, find solutions, and also bring everybody to the table start the right solution can be found for everybody in the eel. okay, tuning how as europe in policy specialist, thanks for speaking to us. thank you much more still to come this news, our why even people with jobs unsteady incomes are turning to food banks in one of the world's richest countries. ah dragon, dancing crowded temples and big family gatherings as people in china celebrate a lunar new year free from coven restrictions. and the shock that held this goal
