says little competition from within the democratic party, despite concerns about the popularity of the aging presidents as the formalities of phenomena, nation contests begin does by didn't have what it takes for another 4 year. us election 2024 analysis the the ron's revolutionary god says it's target sage. what's it called anti iran groups in the code? this region of northern iraq and syria, the uncanny johnston. this is alex, is there a lot from the also coming out of mass release is a new video of a cap. said he says to other, capt is what kills buys very. but it tree strikes in guns. children in shock code

from the run off to israel. latest attacks on central and southern guns that thousands of palestinians had been killed in the past day. plus i'm john 100 in iowa were the 1st votes in the republican primary will be cash at conditions as close as negative 20 degrees celsius. but we begin with breaking news out, so the rock and traffic cut bills airport has been stopped off in number explosions nearby. and it runs revelation. we got his claims responsibility saying it was targeting a spying center. also it had to have some serious and it was retaliation for bombings in iran earlier this month for my food, the wife joins us from that. that nice on my mood that tell us more about what's happened. a well, multiple explosions were heard in a bill according to security. so,

so the explosions happened as a fee. a main at facilities have been targeted by what was drones and missiles the at the american comes with the, according to the security resources. you know, it'd be the heavy ministry bees and also it'd be lit airport with their drones and the, the how database was targeted with the missiles. now it 5 people were killed in these attacks. a number of a wounded is not identified. how many but the security so as to say that there is a number of a one that people look at for only that to attack most of the dead are it civilians . now we do not know for certain how many military individuals at the number of ministry casualties and these attacks brought to the governor of it'd be la,

told the lucas media the that is this is the attack on the city is a tourist and inhumane act. and it'll be, is not afraid, and it will not be a shake. now, what is interesting is that this is the 1st time the what is so called the slattich resistance, the line aligned with groups in a rock. i do not claim responsibility for an attack targeting us and coalition forces ministry facilities in iraq. the iranian revolution of the gods, claiming get us possibility for these attacks. and in, in a statement says literally says that introduce pulse to the recent tourist. a crimes committed by the enemies of the sla, make it on and the screen as headquarters and gathering goals and t around to is to groups and parts of the region at midnight, those headquarters were funded with ballistic missiles and destroyed. okay,

so now with that top that not good, thanks very much indeed. or join now by correspondence i have some who spends a significant amount of time in iraq. i break this down for us that most the possible significance of what's happening well, for the past 3 months, there's a context of each in the context that we have to take into consideration. that is a water in the region for the past few months. see it on has been distancing itself from any kind of tension and allies of your lawn, at least and 11 on and yet many new rock. we're the ones who are engaging in this region of the tension at the time when i know the allow for it on some us wasn't water with this right now, this is the 1st time the 3 i've seen it on engaging in attention. aside from this tension being unrelated, a relatively, to the main war that's going on because of because one of the,

the ations you ask for the i r g c statement is a targeting the groups responsible for the multiple suicide the docs and cut them up. which happened a few days ago, i don't maybe 10 days ago, and 100 the ring is worth cuz we covered that phone from here on. now this is one this i talk wasn't city probably i left was we are receiving now reports. the 2nd attack is inc, anyway on all the, to the wall that's going on in vasa and it's in retaliation. us for the i r g c statement to the us, the nation of our dc commander and all the what the wrong cause, resistance axis come on has on here. i think the radians are mainly a talking about the killing of say it was the most so in damascus. and also another 2 iranian offices senior officers in syria just about 2 months ago. and

also the sensation of, uh the how much the, the, a couple of times the last 2 months. so given what you say then, what's the background to this when it comes to some of the responses in the recent past, what that's talking, it'd be asked for the range in a position in the god. they're saying that they attacked a massage center or headquarters. now what the food was mentioning right now, the, the, the, the attack on the us call. so it's actually the attack was on there, and you're on a what the ring and say, most thoughts center or the building, regardless of, of, of what it is that so close to the u. s. consulate done. this is the 1st time. now, if we go back in and now what archives to 2020, to march 2022. there was a similar attack on the same building or maybe a building that's close to it at that time. also many saw that this is an attack on

the us close to that, and by the way, this is also close to that will be is out of port. so these are these really things that know if it's close to an american base ministry base. these made these centers all close to each other, so at that time it on was the retailing a thing to the beginning of 2 uranian offices all associated. so that time, also iran launched ballistic massages and this time period is launching by bodies sickness. that's what i think is significant to you is the proximity of this building to the u. s. consulate. and here we might put this in the context of if possible message, send that to the americans. okay. with the, with the audi hash. and thanks so much indeed for joining us the, the bus to enter the war in dallas. and now how mess has released a new video that's apparently shows the dead bodies of 2 is really captive the

footage image. this is rose defense minister said the only way to secure the release of more captives will be through maintaining literally pressure on him as well. the video shows a 3rd captive, and he says the to a killed by his ready strikes on garza. she continues to plead for the war to end. the captives to be returned home while they're still alive, is where the army has denied the claims calling its a brutal use of innocent captives di loan to uh, live there. it was not shocked by or forced it assume show, this is a lie, but how much the building on which the walk kept was not a talk to you. i'm gonna send it to us, not a toggle of our forces. so what do we have done with this money method? pretty cool mom. we didn't know the patient and really the time when we do not talk a place where we know there may be hostages. in retrospect, we know that we hit the targets near the location where they were held like to. we are investigating the incident on the 2nd side of it and sleep examining the

pictures the how much is simulating alongside additional information that we have with our hierarchies. following developments now from tennessee is another hiring videos for the families of those held captive still in the gaza strip as how mosse now is claims that 2 of them have been killed in strikes. it's clear to the families the, the plan for the government and the military to continue with this will isn't working. they've said they wanted and brought back as soon as possible. one of those features in this video, a 26 year old female, her mother spoke on stage a hostage square. it's a mock $100.00 days since they were held captive. she suffers from cancer and said, but she hopes, adults a will be back before she dies from the illness. now just is not video was released . we also saw a statement from you all good along the defense minister. he said that the minute

to a probation must continue to bring back all the hostages. this up to time when a ceasefire conversation between cats, all the us, egypt that involves how much is ro, seems to have come to a complete halt for the families. that's a white thing. they say time is running out and this lights is videos will be incredibly painful and distressing for them. so to fight out, i'll just there are some of these. this is where else military is continuing to expand its ground operations and concepts. at least 67 percent of students have been killed in the past 24 miles. let's take a look at the areas where the troops off position it's tanks and troops are present in all these areas in the north and south of the strip and knocked in intense bottles of how does it in fights is in northern causing it. but law here and i talked to him and there was intense gun 5 and con eunice open items, southern guns,

the bottles are taking place between protest in finances and has really forces is ready troops. so advancing towards the la honey must make reports not from rough. i have some list as the rest of your workers are searching for survivors in a pile of concrete is really is try to get a residential building. and some told garza, a girl and her brother are the sole survivors. and this attack that killed dozens of house in these really army has been ramping up its military action in the besieged southern city of tanya and paving the way for times and armies vehicle to move deeper into the area. there has been a common occasion of black outing garza for days and its hindering rescue effort. so have you any about the heavy heating, the move them we are not even able to receive emergency calls from citizens. we are

not even able to use their navigation tools. we rely on our audio and visual skills to reach the targeted areas. on some occasions we take light vehicles to reach hospitals and ask victims about locations of the affected areas of, you know, it's a really difficult for families to stay in touch with the whether you've done that, i'm separated from my parents and i can't reach out to them i do not know how or where i can re unite with them. busy apart from this, i have not been able to reach my son for 2 days, and i'm not able to call him and i don't know where he is. i can't rest. i can't even sleep because i'm not able to get in touch with many of my family members. that's a negative balance. refugee camp is across the strip ruins. after is really air strikes from the center, the number of palestinians through the refuge in the south is rising out of my

shuttle or the thing we can hardly survive. my house was bombed and levelled my family. and i and now homeless my sister, 10 of my cousins were code. we were forced to take shelves until i was out to school ourselves, that my niece and nephew was killed. then we were forced to leave to another shelter, which was rated by the as ready soldiers. i'm penny less. how can i feed them and we've lost our livelihood? you mistake? there's been more than a 100 days since is really a launch. it's more on god. but there's no into the humanitarian. a crisis. palestinians are facing hunger and paying on a daily basis. their suffering is a growing homeless. this is on the rise to. many of them are living in tents, braving the cold and the rain because they have nowhere else to go. honey, my mode. i'll just get a rough southern gauze. in this route, at least one person has been killed and 18 off is injured in a car rounding and stabbing attack happening in the city are not just north of tel

aviv. please say they have arrested at least 2 suspects if identified them as residents of hebron in the occupied westbank and investigation is on the way on the cell who joins us now from occupied at easter. we spend a 100. what else do we know about those? have been accused, this is really police say that a 44 year old man and his nephew, a man in his twenties, are from the village. but when your name is just outside of hebron and the is really a store, it is saying that there was a raid on their house in that village. local say that many of the family members were interrogated and some of them even arrested. these really army then math down both of those homes of the 1st man who is the uncle and the 2nd man, the 24 year old palestinian mapping out both of those homes for demolition. this

has a policy. these really army carries out regularly, though it is incredibly controversial. now, residents of villages like this one say that the collective punishment that comes after there is someone from their village or a neighboring one that carries out an attack. that punishment is severe and effects everyone who is a resident of that village or community. now the families of these 2 men say that prior to october, the 7th, they were allowed to work in israel because they had work permits. but after october, the 7th, no palestinians were allowed to come from the occupied west bank too was really territory to work. and not about a month ago, these 2 men were able to find their way back into his really territory though legally, and were working at a car wash. the is really authority say that both of them are in custody of his really police. but how do we understand that is really a lead to the sort of in fights in dogs that have been really, kate said, what more can tell us to me is really army

says that it is certainly a loss for these units. so we've deciding in gaza, i have to head back to the occupied west bank, but they're saying it's order to in order to prevent a situation from spiraling out of control, there has been an uptick across the occupied west bank and is really military raids in an effort they say to crack down on all the words posted in resistance, but that's not the only thing that's plaguing palestinians. you have more than 700000 is really settlers living in illegal settlements, many of them who were already armed, but even more of them have been armed by the countries national security minister each more ben, very often times, the settlers using their weapons against innocent palestinians under the protection of these really military and often facing no repercussions or consequences even if it, it results in depth of the palestinians. so there are

a series of other issues like the economic downturn, thousands of workers, not able to go into israel to work. that money is no longer going into the west banks. economy. trade is not going through the occupied westbank. tens of thousands of people are unemployed. these nightly rates now claiming the lives of 355 post indians. 94 of them are minors. you're looking at it, we 6000 other arrest around that number. so the situation has been escalating, but it was escalating even before the war throughout the entirety of 2023, which before october, the 7th was on track to be the deadliest year for palestinians. and after the fact, a record high for the number of deaths among palestinians across the occupied west bank from the so who'd for us and occupied histories. and thanks very much i as well. so to come on else is there. you estimate it tree size humans. lucy rebels of gates and the american own container ship with a miss off in the red sea. trust me in new york,

where demonstrators are hitting the street marching to the united nations, forgot the the, brought to you by visit the cutoff. date has been the coldest for 60 years in western canada, as i'm sure you know, in the state of iowa, the code is caucus, on record. well, this is the extent of the code on tuesday morning. it still looks pretty nice the old way down to the gulf coast for that coast of the walmart, and that attempt is, will start to rise by day. additionally, it is still looking cold, but that blue is extending into the pink, which means the southern states almost as cold as they were. indeed, the cold air was giving stow to the northeast of the u. s. or eastern canada,

where recently they've been flooding. so it's got cold if it's not released, otherwise expect the sunshine, but still, of course it remains cold. it's been quite warm in parts of the caribbean of the northern countries of south america, especially west to central america. but i think the wind direction and the increasing cabbage house will change that to some degree. for example, next, cuz it is down to 25. we will have of set, you know, about lower go. and as you know, they've been in floods recently. big rains in some parts of columbia. this whole area of the west an amazon basin still could be fairly wet. and where recently, damaging hailstones of folding the wine, growing area of option t to that could be a repeat performance, looks slightly further north and it does these movies towards the require. the weather brought to you by visit cuts on lock. so during lockdown, held in an infamous and us detention center, immigrants documents the whole vendors conditions during the corporate depend,

demik separated from their families and to 9 basic protections they fight to have their voices heard demanding their whites to release the facility with this documentary on august the the welcome back. reminder about top storage now in iraq had traffic of the bills. apple. it has been stalled top, the number of explosions nearby. at least 2 people had been injured. ron's revolution regard, it's claims responsibility saying it was targeting a spying sentence. it's also attacked groups and syria,

retaliation for bombings into ron earlier this month from us has released a new video that appears to show the dead bodies of 2 as many captives a 3rd captive in the video. it says to a kilobytes, very strikes on concepts and feeds as well to the 4th to end. and israel, one person has been chosen to 18 office, interested in the car, rounding and stabbing a side note. the tennessee police say they have the rest of the 2 suspects. iowa kicks off the race to the white house. on tuesday, the us states choosing its republican presidential nominees votes, is we'll need to brave some of the 0 temperatures today. those have form at present . donald trump is from one of his nearest rifles. the form back to the, to the un vicky haiti and florida governor run the census. trump had this message based support is and they run up to the right. and you,

40 me kid said how figure sick is a dog. you say don't even have your vote and then pass away. it's worth it. remember? well that's bringing jennifer victor in washington dc. she's a professor of political science at george mason university. welcome to the program . so winning the state doesn't guarantee the policies moment nation. does it, but to what extent does it give them a mentor them to a campaign? well, at this very early stage of the presidential campaign, it's all about expectations. and whether or not candidates will meet or beat or under perform what people expect to happen. it's a not much different than a market at this point. and donald trump is a former president. he's still very got a very loyal following, and he is expected to run away with this contest, perhaps by as many as 20 or 30 points. nikki haley is largely expected to come in 2nd place and the fantasy is expected to come in 3rd. so if we see results that are

largely different from that rough uh ordering. and then i think that that could shakes things up to going from here forward. but given the bizarre in this or the unusual last and the harshness of the weather, and that makes things a little bit harder to, to use as a forecasting tool. you mentioned donald trump, so loyal following the i mean, why is his support they so willing to look past his criminal indictments and questions over his role in the january, the 62021 capital attacked by his supporters. how is that happening? it's a, it's a, it's a really good question and i think the best way to understand it is that there are essentially 2 different media environments in 2 different world views that people have in the united states depending on what their diet of information consists of. um, and for unfortunately, there is a large segment of the population that pays attention to unreliable new sources

that doesn't provide accurate information and under plays january 6th events and under plays the threats of violence that come from the trump campaign and so forth . and so there is this, the little growing segment of the population. i don't know that it's a majority, but it's a sizable segment of the population that will probably propel trump to the nomination . that is more comfortable with less democratic, more sort of authoritarian style of politics. what about room desantis? and nikki haley. then what's the best they can helpful as well? i think nikki haley is hoping for 2nd place reports suggest that the next contest, which is a will be in new hampshire, which will be an election not a, not a, not a caucus, but she is well positions there may be to, to perform quite strongly. there are so she comes out of iowa with the 2nd place showing, even if it's, even if she's 20 points behind the drum. and she goes in to new hampshire with a little bit of that, you know, at least meeting or maybe even meeting some expectations. then that might give her

some campus her campaign, some momentum, but to be honest, here to be really fair. it is a highly likely that donald trump will be the republican nominee. and the 2024 election of the united states will wind up for all intents and purposes, being an incumbent versus incumbent election, which we haven't had in united states since 18. 92. when grover cleveland ran for a non consecutive a successful 2nd term as president, i'm briefly that, i mean, will the record cold temperatures that you mentioned earlier play a significant part in this? i would certainly think so. it seems quite dangerous. uh, a threat to human health should be outside in these negative temperatures that they have in iowa right now. i would certainly expect that to depress, turn out to some extent. these campaigns um, many of them have very strong ground operations in organized bands and transportation and so forth to try it. because it's all about turn out. it's all about getting as many physical bodies into a space to engage with one another. and the weather can certainly get in the way of

that, but ios both because the population is somewhat used to that weather and because the campaigns are very well organized to help people manage it, i think it's possible it won't affect things as much as you might expect so it's a vector, we appreciate your time. thank you. thank you. on this let me see on the group has hit us on containers, shape of the coast of human causing minimal damage. no injuries were reported on board the bill to equal and it continued, it's jenny and this comes off to us and british forces car without thousands of strikes on the targets in yemen. and it statements the who is, he said that all american and british ships involved in a tax on that you have any territory are considered hostile targets, might kind of has more now from washington dc. the news of the incidents was 1st reported by the united kingdom, a maritime trade operations, which issued a message in the early morning saying that the mazda of

a vessel had reported that he had been struck by a messiah from above. the vessel and crew are safe the vessel proceeding to the next port of call. now, a few hours later, the whole incident was confirmed by us central combined, which confirmed that they had been no injuries and that the vessel was carrying on . but central combined also reported a not the incident that had occurred earlier. this a massage applied at a us destroyer, which was destroyed mid flight by a us find to aircraft. so a number of incidents in the red sea of the recent hours. and very importantly, this is off to the us and the u. k. a taxable and 60 bases, they say in ponts of human control by the who, the militants, this appears to be a response to those attacks. now, over the weekend, us intelligence sources said that they believe that the who to use retains some 75

percent of the operational capacity to launch missiles and drones and the events. so the recent oz would appear to bear this out. now us, president biden has pledged that they will be a response. should attacks on shipping in the red sea continue? well, he's being at martin luther king celebrations in philadelphia in the course of the day he has returned to the white house. but despite shouted questions from the po, to still no comment from the white house on these recent events in the red sea. so everybody waiting now to see when or if there is a us response by kind of i'll just sierra washington to turn into the gauze and now he but remember that there's a displaced palestinian living in a destroyed school that was hit by and he's ready strike he but tells us what happened and, and what's a good one, had a whole thought and guess what was the 6 was the, was to raging these really been bulb and intensifying

a home was flattened. so normally we would displace to the un, ron alpha, quote, a score, but even this was not sped. it was constantly targeted. and on the last occasion, many people, including my in laws, were killed. we were forced to go to another school, but they had the sewage system flooded. so it was impossible for us to stay. it was also show several times. some of the many civilians guessing kills. no place is safe, and garza and we have nowhere to go on in the policy. i know, but none of those. yeah. we came to this to go to school building because there was nowhere else to go. nice must go on. what but destruction is everywhere and goals of every piece of goals that is destroyed. but we must find a way to live. we hope this norton that comes to an end on our own tools, open my husband, mind this daughter and i have come here to try and find a way to support this trust me. when my,

who knew my mobile mr lot more towards his childhood. many of those has been destroyed. children are living in fear. they've even lost the will to play. so you home by the in the album. i couldn't tell, i'm the i'm going through these ruins and hoping i would find something upon or spoon, or even a toy from my child like gosh, ok a what? i yes, i'm not going know this destroyed school. any of the place and goals are, is fit for living any more. we are not, it's not enough less than you. like inside just the god, the could not. look at us here. it is true that this place is destroyed from the cold weather. one cannot side side, but we must enjoy all these ruins and fill the. we're trying to take refuge from these ready bombardment. we are tired and i fear for my child in new york now for testers have been gathering in front of the united nations and support the protestant ends in god's christian salumi was the.
