welcome to the news i will begin with for the coverage while breaking news story. this friday, the unexpected, inconsequential announcement by saudi arabia and iran that there resuming diplomatic ties. diplomatic cooper, china, the deal was struck in beijing after 4 days of secret talks. it follows 7 years of hostilities since the regional rivals broke off official relations during which they clashed on major foreign policy issues. while in a joint communique, both countries pledged to reopen their embassies. within the next 2 months are difficult to get to jane's basis. standing by force that the united nations headquarters in new york professors cross over to alhashan are corresponded into her on and just begin what we about what we know about what's been agreed. yes, i'll n b gene. the secretary of iran says supreme national security council and his counterpart from saudi arabia met over the past few days. and they agreed on

exchanging ambassadors between to had on andrea. this is a breakthrough, and this is big news in this region because on one side it's going to help this escalate the escalate, the tension on the other. it's kind of a result of a 2 years off meetings between delegations from iran and south, yet have yeah, there was a mediation before and in by that that or didn't really go a lot of forward and there was a small on the standings. what thrive now? that is a big agreement. the 2 countries are going back to a 2 exchange ambassadors that have to provide the thighs and also they will put in action the 2001 security back between them. that means no, none of none of them is going to interfere in any other countries interests and they will try to have good relations. how this is going to be reflected on the region. many say this is going to have yes, the escalade,

as we said in the beginning, but the important thing here. so hale is the chinese role. this region has been known for years to be under the u. s. influenced, this is the 1st time that china is playing, sought should, all, and this means that the chinese are having more leverage in the middle east. indeed, we'll look into that as the news our progresses. but as you said, alley de escalation in the region is very important. so from bay route to muscat, from baghdad to doha, regional capitols will be wondering what this means, especially santa, in yemen. that's right. mainly sunshine yemen because of the crisis, the water in yemen that has been going on for the past 9 years. now maybe this is a chance for the yemen. he's to see a solution. maybe it's also a chance for that of any is to see a new president. it shines for the rockies for the syrians, because both countries had conflicting and clashing interests in many capitals in the region. and with them agree. we're not saying that this is going to be as

smooth fast, but at least with them having a table to sit on with them, having diplomatic ties. this means many of the problems in the region could be talked between the main rivals and at least things are not going to go to the level of tension that was during the past years and the hush from integra for us. thank you. let's go to james bay's now. diplomatic, today at the united nations changed the reaction from washington. whatever it is to this announcement may well indicate whether they were actually informed or knew about these negotiations on. so they did at some level, but what the reaction will be will be very interesting how they said anything yet. so on the, the reaction is broadly a welcome. and i'll come to that in a moment. but just so the 1st some news i just got in the last few minutes here at the united nations on the 38th floor of the united nations headquarters of the

tower block here that i'm inside. i can tell you that there, there has been a briefing in the last hour with the un secretary general. i've spoken to someone who was in that meeting and i'm told there was a very positive reaction. indeed from the un secretary general. he's been talking about some sort of process or in the gulf region. i. he said it should be similar, perhaps towards the end of the cold war. the helsinki process is been talking about that for years. and perhaps he's now seeing what his long hoped for are in this region. with regard to the u. s. they certainly are saying this is positive. and in some ways it is for u. s. interests because particularly the war in yemen, as ali was saying, this could, i think only be good news. it in just a few days time going to be the anniversary of the saudis intervening in yemen. 8 years ago. yes, the war is now reached a stage where it's in some sort of truce,

although there's still a violence, but no sign of of final settlement, some diplomatic resolution that now looks more positive. and of course, the tensions between saudi arabia and iran, ah, other places, important other places in the region like lebanon, like iraq, like syria. so all sorts of important changes could happen here at with regard to iran's nuclear program, though i wonder what the u. s. is real view is there are certainly the u. s. is very close as are ally. israel will not like this. israel wants to see iran completely isolated. and remember, you've had the head of the i. e, a, the international atomic agent energy agency are in iran in recent days with concerning reports that iran, some, some nuclear material in iran had been found, had been enriched up to 84 percent. now we believe that was just a very small sample of, of uranium, but

a weapons grade is 90 percent. so i think that's the concern for the israelis, and i think for it to it, to a degree of, for the united states. although the biden administration, of course, their state of view is still that they want to resolve the iran nuclear issue diplomatically and just perhaps this could help that indeed and, but washington won't be and ignoring the fact that perhaps their influence in the region is slightly not much diminishing but being pushed to one side slightly if china come involved in that you might say this an equation of diplomacy, they'll be trying to fathom out what china's role is in all of the short term and long term. yeah. because saudi traditionally had a very, very close relationship with the us in many ways, all its eggs were in the u. s. basket. they had a deal for protection from the u. s. for saudi arabia and energy from saudi arabia

for the united states. and that has been the deal since the end of the 2nd world war. now it seems saudi arabia is looking at a much more multi polar existence looking to the power of china in terms of trade and diplomacy in the region. all. so don't forget the war in ukraine as well, because of the saudi foreign minister in recent days has been in russia and saying reasonably good things about russian ties with saudi arabia. although i should add that the saudi farmers. that was also in the last couple of weeks in ukraine and saudi arabia, st potentially could see itself as, as a mediator in the war in ukraine. but remember, the u. s. position is they want total isolation of russia. and remember also that iran who saudi arabia is now going to restore diplomatic relations with is one of the few countries that is directly supplying russia with weapons. it's,

it's alleged. and drones and missiles are certainly many countries say are coming from iran to russia. jim's laser diplomatic editor there for us in the united nations in new york. iran and saudi arabia have long had an adversarial history. let's take look back at some of those recent events will in 2011, the arab springs or protest movements against the status quo and several countries in the middle east, sadie arabia accused her on of inciting protests in bahrain against the royal family. iran deny the accusation. well, as the civil war in yemen began in 2015, saudi arabia, back the internationally recognized government and targeted who the rebels strongholds. iran was widely accused of a king who sees militarily, is that it provides a political support. and in 2016, saudi arabia executed a prominent shiite leader who supported dissent against the kingdom. there was a pro in the wrong when protested burn parts of the saudi embassy. and in 2019

saudi arabia state for an oil company was hit by a who's the driving attack. 5000000 barrels a day of crude production was effected close to half of the kingdoms output. iran denied any involvement of joiner bias 0 senior political and his mom shara, and we could help you with this. restoring relations means a direct line of communication between re added to ron. does it also mean that the 2 regional rivals are going to be friends again? it's possible there's a sense that a lot of countries in the region are going hybrids. they are having more than one nation with one country, sometimes having to relations with 2 very opposing countries, such as the u. e. having relations with syria and israel, or turkey having relations with israel and iran, and most of them now are having relations with russia and the united states as well

as china. so we're seeing more and more of that kind of relations that we have not seen during the cold war. and we have not seen in the uni, paula rolled after the cold war. this is a new phenomena. it's almost like politics is falling with business. we have hybrid cars and we're going to have hybrid politics, right? so none of these countries is going to be satisfied by simply pursuing one particular path. when a number of paths is open to them, i think this will turn out to be at least in the immediate run into a marriage of inconvenience, why inconvenience and why marriage? because these are 2 important neighbors and they're, both of them are important regional powers. and they've had some difficult times. but they've also tried that's at certain, rare times to actually engage and what we know for a fact. so it is that they're animosity,

their conflict has reflected terribly on the region, as you said, on lebanon on syria. anya men, especially in yemen and on iraq. so whenever they forced whenever they conflicted in the region, arabs notably suffered. so what you hope now is that they would develop relationship if they don't improve situations, at least they will mitigate more of the same damages that happened before in terms of see whether this relationship as you say, is the marriage of inconvenience. when do you think, or if do you think that the relationship can be physically seen to be improving in the for malls, the situation in yemen, the relationship with damascus and the influence that both sides tried to exert in lebanon is causing political calles in any of these countries, what should we be looking for in the short term in the long term, in terms of what we would perceive pat's as a viewer, as improvement?

yes. i think probably the rational explanation in this case, we're probably me the best explanations. i think a lot of times in the middle east and beyond, the rational expressions is not always the best explanation. so i will explain it from what i think is the best interest of iran in saudi arabia. but so i will ask the following questions, and our viewers around the world may be, could help me answer the question. what have saudi arabia iran benefited the last 8 years from their conflict and proxy wars in the middle east? my answer is nothing. not only have these countries them, at least like yemen, totally destroyed, like syria, totally destroyed, like iraq, terribly hurt, like lebanon, totally paralyzed. all of these countries and others have suffered enormously because of the proxy conflict between iran has already been. but the question again, what have irena sodium again, i think not much or the most nothing. what happened is that not only they did not

benefit much of those, they could claim to have projected influence here and there. but really, i don't see you aren't benefiting from syria. i don't see you on benefiting from lebanon. what i see is both countries bleeding money, bleeding, finance, bleeding credibility, and certainly having to buy a non stop arms, especially saudi arabia, from all kinds of different powers on the world. their, their finances have been drained by this continuous armed race in the region. did it serve them? no, it did not, did it make them more secure? no, it did not. so then the rational answer is any or a push more between iran and so you maybe it would be great for the region, but also would be great for them. what happened domestically in saudi arabia and iran? that's the business of so dear if anyone will be picking this in the coming hauser, not just with emo but with guess from saudi arabia and yemen. but thanks very much

for the moment. barbara charlotte, plenty more had here on the news or including trying to parliament fine so called an unprecedented term for president teaching thing plus australia build a formidable lead against india. and the final test master will have all of the actions for later ah will pay for $577000000.00 over the next 3 years. in an effort to cut the number of asylum seekers crossing the english channel in small boats, the british and french leaders have been meeting paris with migration top of the agenda. as the u. k. government pushes a controversial current down on illegal crossings. now, the 2 liters hailed the summit has a nice start. and french, british relations were announcing

a new detention center in northern from and you command center, bringing out enforcement teams together in one place for the 1st time. and an extra 500 new offices patrolling french beaches all underpinned by more drone and other surveillance technologies that will help ramp up the interception right. and the legislation, the u. k, is introduced this week, supports it. because it's designed to break the business model of the criminal gangs and remove the poll factors, bringing them to the channel coast. now we will always comply with our international treaty obligations, but i am convinced that within them that we can do what is necessary to solve the shared problem and stop the boat in a city gascon was on this. what we've decided is heightened coordination on our activities, new initiatives. we compel each other and we must act together in a fully shared framework. but also to be able to do this with all the europeans who

are concerned with the transit and crossings. yasandra, that is all that i sure butler is joining us now, live from the ally, se paris, in a lease a palace in paris at the tongue twisted our natasha out of course, are these 2 countries as they say, harbor a joint problem. and that is at the migrants crossing the channel. i mean, obviously it's a huge issue for different reasons. both countries. what else are they going to try and solve? in this case? no, when it comes to cross channel migration, it is long been a source of great tension between britain and france. britain as always, felt that france doesn't do enough to stop people crossing the english channel on small boats and arriving illegally in the u. k. fronds has long felt that britain should do more to help it if he really wants to try and reduce the number of asylum seekers that are leaving. our friend shows are what he thought to day was emmanuel

macro and richie soon ack. at least looking as if they had come to some form of agreement over how to move forward. we have britain pledging $577000000.00 a to francis for the next 3 years to help bolster security operations on the northern french k. so you had a very c, like talking about things like another did a detention center that will be run by our british and french. oh, officers police officers more are patrolling police officers on the beaches are northern france cuz the 2 countries already have an important relationship. but to it's an or the relationship itself or has been dealing with those issues or of migrant crossings. i'm and they want to try to reset that as well. how interesting is this meeting in terms of you might say people watching as mean great over the last few years. oh no. the very fact

that there some it was taken place is significant in itself because there hasn't been a franco british summit for 5 years because relations between london and paris if he is extremely strain deficit begs with disputes, are the things like fishing rights conveyed an eoc as submarine contract, but this, what we saw here today between mac on scene that was all about resetting those ties, reviving past alliances and relations. the 2 leaders very adamant that they are united in working together. look, macros clearly got of a different working relationship with soon act than he did with the next predecessors, boys, johnson or less trust. this is a new chapter. now lots of talk about turning a page and i think it's clear that that has been done and achieved for this meeting the such a butler for us. there is a palace in paris. thanks very much. well, let's bring in camille, the cause from mexico city. she's a senior policy analyst at the migration policy institute. good. have you at the,

on the program in terms of sort of policy already in place to help boats coming from france. i mean, the british government feels it's just not working. so what do they think will work? yes, the question, and we're talking about resenting the policy between friends in the u. k. but what we really seeing is more of the same. it's more money to majors in terms of border control, but still lacking best comprehensive approach is that, but he's really what is needed and many other companies that just trying to invest in border control and trying to prevent people from leaving here. i think it's been interesting to see this some is this, the more money you know, but this is really similar to what happened. you know, what happened at the very end of the year. and what you really want, which is to be able to return people to friends and not be read by the french and will be, you know, won't be something that they will agree on. because as mike was it just it over and

over the french, i'm going to you response to this. you obviously, as you say, has been pushing the french and tried to restrict the, the crisis that the channel is experiencing in terms of migration. front disposition is incredibly clear, but what else can they do? well, what are they willing to do in your opinion? that would be the point at which london would be happy. yeah, i think the french, i'm already given in latin, tim of agree to corporate on the border. and i think this has a lot to do is a new relationship. and that we're seeing between the and the prime minister b, u, k, and, and france. now what needs to happen is my partner, she froze between franklin k friends as you can and the you as a whole. and, but then also with a partner country with your country, the country of origin, the trends that country and that this migrants are coming from, including to create staging legal pathways for these people. and we're seeing this

dimensions still missing from, from many of the conversations day of the logic conversation not pops are international viewers will not be aware of as at britain's opposition parties. a talking about the agreements that are not signed or in place to deal with this post bricks it's scenario. i mean, why is migration policy so difficult to deal with now for london and the rest do when it's really what it's dealing with europe. because the perception may be in the you, that london just aren't friendly enough to work some think out, is that justified? i mean, isn't just france and the u. k. having this problem, italy has had thousands of migrants arriving over the mediterranean, and they're having the same issue to absolutely, but i think the difference was easily that they are still working within the framework of the you. so it's been extremely challenging for easily for grief for spain, but what we're seeing is feel a willingness to engage and common frameworks for the you cannot is different. and i think that's why the friendly as it and you're in the bilaterally and hobbies agreement, retreat with the u. k. because you're not part of the you anymore. and,

you know, income in the country to what about the been state by the proposed by the support of the bank that does not support the u. k. regaining control of the border. and it's really make cooperation with other, you partner much more complicated than it used to be just what, what comes out of a law communication by paris and london in the next few days. camila was thank you so much for joining us from mexico city. police in germany say a gunman who killed 6 adult, signed an unborn baby to jehovah. witness hall was a former member of the community. they say he shut himself data. please enter the building in the northern city of humbug, trying to hold poles. mobile footage records. a gunman, firing many rooms inside a building where a weekly bible study meeting a pitcher hoses witnesses, was taking place outside

a stream of police vehicles and ambulances were quickly on the scene. armed police stormed the building, finding dead bodies, and many injured and escorting survivors to safety. habit police had confirmed the gunman was among the dead, shooting himself on an upper floor as police entered below. they described him as philip f, a 35 year old german citizen, and former member of the job is witnesses who left the community on bad terms 18 months ago, possibly suffering from mental ill health. the motive remains unclear, but terrorism has been ruled out of often by lee dish leap he appeared to be unmarried, lived and worked in hamburg since 2014 philip philip f. had a gun license for sports purposes and was in legal possession of a weapon type of heckler and cockpit 30, which was the weapon found next to the perpetrator. o. overnight eye witnesses

described a frenzied scene. yeah, no, it's been unwilling to you me. i'm a resident up here and i heard loud gunshots, so i went to the window to get an idea of the situation. then i saw that a man was shooting out of the window with a fire on it will people being carried out and they will probably 25 shots at least than i heard. and after the police got there, there was no gunfire for a long time, but then after 5 minutes or so, there was a single shot as forensic work continued. police said the gunman at $59.00 back as edes of munitions during the rampage. the coincidental presence at the time of highly trained officers near the jehovah, witness building they said, had saved many lives. joe, the whole al jazeera or producer william peacock is in hamburg. it says of last night, very keen to stress the authorities. how quickly police react, it just a 4 minutes. we said before the 1st ones arrived and very soon we were almost a 1000 officers at a point where they did think that might be a 2nd command somewhere in the area,

which of course turned out not to be the case. but included, in fact, a special unit trained in exactly was kind of situation who happened to be very close by. so, but all went very well. what is going to draw attention? i think in what we heard is this issue of a gun license. so this man held a gun legally reported to say he wasn't going to remove sensor no charges had ever been made against him. but this gun license, someone had complained about anonymously saying before, he might have an undiagnosed mental illness with very angry religious people. in particular and his ex community of james witnesses here, they investigated in the center. they went to his house, they found a very minor infraction, but some ammunition wasn't properly locked up. and that was that of are going to be questions about where the german gun laws are really fit. for purpose isn't the 1st time it's been my shooting her. it's not the 1st time has been done with a legally owned weapon. and people are going to ask, what do we need to do to stop happening again? the georgia parliament has dropped a bill that protests to say it would silence the media and opposition. the bill

would have forced meet your organisations on angie's. he received more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad to register as foreign agents nor tens of thousands of protesters were out on the streets for 3 days. they had warned the bill was a move towards russia and away from the west. and smith has more from tbilisi. there's a little relief here outside parliament, the popular protest seems to forced georgia the government to back down and kill this bill. the ruling party, georgia. dream said it would conditionally withdraw the bill. it supported without any reservation, but it accused what it called the radical opposition of spreading lies about the bill. how many people here in the hands of russia, the bill was called an agent of foreign influence. bill was a very similar sort of law was passed in russia and it was used to crack down on opposition groups and human rights watch says that here in georgia organizations

and jose would have faith owners reporting requirements and inspection that includes electron monitoring groups, corruption, monitoring group independent media, anyone who got source more than 20 percent of the funding from overseas, the government, but simply that this law was necessary to route out foreign agents and spies the kremlin when a civically about this law that that they had no influence. i'm not involved in this. lauren, georgia. let's bring in union of alova from moscow on the program. me what the russian foreign minister has been speaking. what has to get love to say? yes. sad. there are some reactions from the russian official side here and a mr. lover of said that the process that broke out in georgia very similar to the ukranian, my dont of 20132014. he said that earlier on on the russian

federal television channel. and he emphasized that the events taking place in georgia these days have been orchestrated from abroad and their goal is to crate and it's haitian zone me and the road is with the russian federation. and the actually, he said that there is no doubt that the trot of the registration of non government organizations was used as an excuse to start jerry speaking, an attempt to change the government by force that was according to the russian foreign minister. also, dmitri pest called the russian presidential spikes passed and said that the g to the crows has taken place in georgia. the russians living that should stay away from places where riots on taking place and also stay do mystique and that you love the lord in previous previously said just a little bit earlier said that if a doctor before an agency law would limit washington's influence on the internal college life of georgia, and as the draft has been, was drawn,

he said that the country lost a chance for so ring tape and that the george and authorities were full start bay, but not to the will of the people but to the will of the united states and that's according to they speak of the law house over russian parliament. but on the other side, on the other hand, rather, he forgot to mention that there are quite a lot of those in the kremlin. he wouldn't mind to continue that influence on georgia, and the absence of the law will untied a hands there. so that is the reaction from some russian officials here. it either, either the russian relationship with georgia has been strained for some years, really since the 2008 war and that sort of overshadows any sort of reproach ma, between the 2 in the future. yes, indeed, just to remind you, the russian of course narrative. he is that in early august 29th of august, 2008 rather children,

president middlesex really sent troops into the rebellious provinces of coffee. and some for cynthia and russia came to the defense, the beginning, a 5 day long walk conflict father, that ended with russian peacekeeping troops being deploy that of course, the georgians consider russia an aggressive here. and they keep saying that russia has a next set of sentence of the julian territory. so the anti russian sentiment on that in georgia is still quite strong, of course, of course. and that he at once again, we hear that a protest is called in ish. so i'm in detroit, so before an agent drops at rush low, and in that opinion, the introduce bill repeats the main regulations of the russian foreign agents loan . so according to their protests, the bill contradicts the european shores of georgia for the moment. thanks so much for the up that you the shop of alova from oscar. thank you.

well, still had hill. the news of the rebels had killed 44 people in the increasingly volatile democratic republic of congo. and the last, last long out of stop motion animation will get a peek behind the curtain of the make you the latest oscar nominated version of connecticut and in sport the come back it strikes again. andy murray, digs deep to win at indian wells at story coming in it's got hot again, argentina. it's been a hot summer as you know in argentina in chile in particular. now increasingly you see the cloud building, but we've had another couple of records broken in recently an argentine and matching pitcher the out in cuz city up in per your high in the mountains. but it's

still broken record for march wall, and it's still pretty woman when it's area, there are shout ran just to the south and a line that stood the north or has been more significant recently through se, brazil and paraguay, and amazonia. it seems like he was he some pretty heavy, damp horse. same is probably true in ecuador, where we seen recent flooding from pretty heavy rain. but if you jumped north of the continent, it's a matter of lightest breezes. once again, that's just a few showers around, particularly i think in costa rica, not so much in mexico, attempts to stay on the high side for the most part with shout to boot. but the u. s. is where it's really gone city once more. this is the last winter storm taking significant snow through new england and maybe he's in canada with these thunderstorms going offshore. but i mean, look at the pacific coast. this is yet another winter storm. this one is more like the one that brings rain than snow. there is snow in the mountains, but rain will bring flooding again to california.

ah, brought forth the law a will. the law with, with neither side, willing to negotiate is the ukraine war becoming a forever war? is america's global leadership, increasingly fragile? what will us politics look like as we had to the presidential election of 2024. the quizzical look. us politics, the bottom line. this is the image of home comb dansville speeches, bustling glamorous city. but under ground, a different reality appears. official figures released in november show the number of people experiencing homelessness is the highest in a decade, and is shop rise in the number of women experiencing housing insecurity. that report also said there's need for better services and more funds the hosting accommodation. as the situation western, it's the middle of winter here in hong kong, and the temperature often drops below 10 degrees at night. people are nice,

underpass are preparing for another nice exposed to freezing conditions. lou ah, welcome back to what you built there and you saw with lisa l. robin, a reminder of all top stories. saudi arabia, under all of announced that resuming diplomatic ties. the deal was struck in beijing. the 2 countries released a joint communique with china, all the agreement, king to break off ties with rod in 2016. the u. k. will pay for arms $577000000.00 over the next 3 years. in an effort to cut the number of asylum seekers crossing the english channel into small boats,

the british and french leaders have meeting paris quality. it's a nice start and diplomatic relations. and at least 8 people are dead for government carried out to the tackle jehovah. witnesses hole in the job and city of humbug. javin media report suggest the shooter was a former member of the religious community. now these 44 people are being killed all the time. can eastern democratic republic of congo. the military says a village in north keyvi province was targeted by fighters, believed to be from the allied democratic forces. that's a uganda armed group that's pledged allegiance to iso malcolm where possible the people of the village of mac, candy berries, bodies of thousands of children, women and men killed in an attack by an armed group. it's not the 1st time they'd had to do this louisiana mother, even though it was evening, around 7 o'clock, i heard noises and children starting to flee suddenly,

the rebels were attacking in the direction of our health center that was shouting. the children shouted the adf rebels. are here, the army says the adf, or allied democratic forces is responsible. it's widely blamed for killing thousands of civilians in it's hillary province over the last decade for wave women . as you see in the country, it's always the same adf, which always has bad intentions towards the congo lease. so they showed up here in the village of mac, condie, last many of our brothers. 2 years ago the government declared a state of siege here a form of martial law. it said it would enable a crackdown on the armed groups that the attacks have only become more frequent and more bloody, you see in their bus bar. here 3 or 4 days don't go by without us recording death. the results of barbarity from adf terrorists. that is why once again, we repeat, we need considerable military force to come, that can contribute to the restoration of peace. the adf originally came from
