1:04 pm
somebody used to live on the 1st floor. the lower floor was a kind of storage. now on the other side, on this is a warehouse. this is the warehouse for the metal factory. i'll just read these are saying that this was kind of an arms warehouse, which i love. some of the claims that these were his belie width and depots actually false. we are well known family in the area. we have no political affiliation, and then also aligned to any political parties, we're concerned only with our business, m livelihood on man. so that's not the issue is that his will, has been always warning that any targeting for civilians is going to be faced with retaliation with a similar return. and that's why everyone's life. how is watching the board, the what's going to happen health is, was going to respond to this talk and how such
1:05 pm
a situation is going to contribute to the escalation them to the tension. the hyperlink tension, especially that uh, call into the re on the situation here. 11 on that, everyone is anticipating that his beloved retaliation to the beginning of its, its commander. and the water for the media war is high to me. between is rather inches below. we saw yesterday the faulty showing a showcasing that a miss size and then on the ground facility and they, what they call them inside the city. and this was kind of, uh, uh, wanting to these reviews that the next step could be very difficult from what i did before, novelty, i'd ask you about to you a secretary of state anthony blinking is due to travel to israel on saturday to continue diplomatic efforts. for a gauze a ceasefire. the white house as a deal is ready to close. lincoln is expected to meet prime minister benjamin netanyahu on monday. and then yahoo says israel's fundamental principles are well
1:06 pm
known to the mediators. and he hopes that a mouse will accept the deal, the us egypt and guitar presented a proposal to hum us and israel on friday and don't they say bridges. the remaining gaps between the 2 sides fox are set to resume in cairo next week. says is realize again, trying to obstruct in agreements by adding new conditions. it's also added that any deal must ensure the end of aggression against palestinians and a full is really withdrawal from gaza. and us president joe biden is warning no one in the middle east should undermine efforts to reach an agreement. i'm optimistic or optimistic now, then you have been in months past why the bi mohammad junction has been following developments in doha mohammed. so we've heard from the mediators,
1:07 pm
we've heard from israel from us. what happens now of the world 0 at the moment, you still have a technical team from israel in doha, trying again to work through these details before. there is another meeting that's going to happen in cairo before the end of next week. and the statement that was released last night at the conclusion of these 2 days of ceasefire talks and how you had the mediators, the us of egypt. all saying that they believed that these, these gaps could be, could be narrowed more, could be bridge, hopefully with in the coming week. that's where expectations lie at this particular hour. and it's very interesting because before the talk started indoor, how a lot of diplomats close to the talks expressed reservations. they, they express skepticism as to how much exactly could be accomplished. that's
1:08 pm
because every and coordination, integration of the talks in the last few months has not led any where a but if you looked at the language and the statement that was released about this proposal that was presented by the us and supported by about that in egypt. and it was presented to israel and how much the mediators felt confident that enough had been done, but perhaps these gaps could be narrowed even more of the days ahead. so there's also going to be a technical team traveling to cairo. and the days ahead, you're going to have officials from the mediating countries be traveling as well to cairo before the end of next week. the hope the expectation is that within the next week that the gaps can be narrowed even further and hopefully they can reach this very elusive cease fire deal. now we should also mention that after the statement by the 3 mediators was released last night. you also had a separate statement released by the ministry of foreign affairs in athletics, the foreign minister, a part of the prime minister of cooperation from hamilton. i put him on assigning. he spoke with his iranian counterpart, the taxi, foreign minister of iran,
1:09 pm
yesterday to brief him on developments when it came to this mediation. all of this, of course, against the backdrop of a very tense time in this region, a lot of volatility. when the mediators are really thinking, this is a final push, this is a final chance to effect a ceasefire deal before there could be a wider regional war and everybody wants to try and prevent that. so even though going into the talks, expectations seemed to be on the low side. this was high stakes diplomacy. this was done at a crucial time. and right now, indications are that the mediating countries believe that potentially within the coming week, they could narrow these gaps even further. and maybe finally reach some kind of ceasefire deal. 0 ok, mom and thank you very much for laying out all of that. that's mohammed junction reporting from dough ha, dance solve it says the founder of the european office for the october 7th hostages . your, with joining us live from brussels and thank you for your time today. as someone who has laser focused on getting captives out of gaza,
1:10 pm
do you have any inside track on where the negotiations are right now? unfortunately, they are not around the usually good table the hostages through all the different organizations, civil society that they're engaging around the world are putting a pretty refresher we possibly can. both of these very different man isn't actual actors. and so that is just for to, to be able to see issues. now finally use the results we've been looking for all along. and then finally see the hostages really well. so let me ask you the sort of sorry, go ahead. go ahead. yeah. and i just wanted to say that i think that this hall just, i think he said he will just that's the never should have been the take him to begin with. i don't think any calls and i'm a supervisor. i don't know that kind of been calls going to the city and state, but i think that's uh, october 2nd atrocities. and the reason is i can not think of these hostages is the
1:11 pm
kind of thing you call and just requested. and the data there is just the only data as we can find during the page and stop the properties. the mediators as you've read and heard or projecting some amount of optimism about a deal. but i'm us in israel or already back to blaming each other. so are you at this stage optimistic to the fact the support of the deal more than it has now we're talking about 72 percent of these really probably most of the ones that deal i think it's very clear that it seemed to the interest of poor partners to have a deal. this does not mean that there's really government. no hello, we're fine. there's a lot of citizens and this is gay. and i hope that these really leadership will listen to it. so i think opinion. and i hope that somebody would also show like submitted to think it's ignored, but his interest. but if we fail to pass the moms as far as i can see, i've seen the lowest point of this minute,
1:12 pm
but has been incomplete or never have there's been so much stuff or even both sides . now we're at the critical crossing the crossroads because if there's no deal now we're going to zip good much much worse as you're drawing, as just as i might be. but if this is 0 now fails, we will see more time on the wrong. and he's actually just by law, the worms against that then you know, and in the shifting law, probably the given by the judge has into a gas uh, what's left of it was even more destruction, more accurate, even more disease has been more of a starvation and the also just will be killed and then see how best in the interest of 21 years of holes that if they do sign, now, we can finally see the beginning of the escalation that could bring us back the hostages. the data for very open ended thing started implementation, the people of coughing desperately need to start rebuilding and receiving that aid . that they're craving, particularly because there are people on both sides to finally turn
1:13 pm
a page on what happened on the 7th to start rebuilding their life and both dental and collective levels. you pay that. but if i tell you, if i can jump in there, you told her team before the show you made that point that this war has been the lowest point in is really palestinian relations ever. you also said that it could be a turning point though. can you expand on that? this is what it was, like i said, it's the most dramatic across rows in the, in the, in the complex either now as, as bad as it is published, but it can get to much worse. but we know that the piece on happens after after more is that what happens between the confusion between it's been ages? i think both these varies are kind of similar from what happened in the past, and most that financed is not going to gain this really security and not going to gain that a city and state now is applying for reason to stop the war to release the hostages as a starting building day after the start of these specimens of who's going to go from
1:14 pm
guys on the day after what kind of international forces and start building the future of can give both that a significant is very it looks a whole right now as to what it was fair and all science because it's not hung in the horizon of the vendors deal. finally, the find a den, some of its founder of the european office to the october 7 hostages. thank you very much. you for having. well, there's plenty more ahead on this news hour, including ukraine saying it has destroyed cambridge is and it's incursion into rushes course, screeching. the concern about the impulse virus is rising. often new cases were found in pakistan. it's health department says at least 2 people have contract of the infectious disease. they're in isolation in peshawar, the outbreak started last year in the democratic republic of congo. if this i'm
1:15 pm
getting food reports of feverish, disfigured and struggling to eat, beatrice and did not know what was happening to her son when the symptoms appeared a look for go for me, i was with the child a time. he started having a fever and i thought he had malaria. so i bought medicine for that. but it was impacts and infectious disease in the same family as the virus that causes smoke pumped children and pregnant women. i'm more valuable than any other age groups. thankfully, it wasn't too late for beatrice, this child to pick up. and then a friend came by the house and when she saw the child, she told me he could die and i should bring him to the hospital. that's how i came here. nearly 500 people has died from and box this year, nearly all of them in the democratic republic of congo. and more than 14000 cases have been reported across the 10 african countries. doctors and researchers say the
1:16 pm
fast proud of the disease which is transmitted through close contact could be prevented. taking a lot of actually national golf vaccination against smallpox also protects against impacts. it's across protection, and we have a vaccination against smallpox has been discontinued since almost the end of the seventy's. and in some countries since 77 to 80. while surveillance of highly infectious diseases has increased across the world since the coven 19 pandemic, many african countries lack appropriate health care systems. with those displaced by conflict, most vulnerable the most, the base a law, the risk is so high for all the populations are in the comes the condition in which the displaced live in the different types already we have more than 10 cases that have been recorded, which means that if it's not made in this area of most key view, it will spread like wildfire of as the virus is now spreading. outside the continent,
1:17 pm
pakistan and sweden have both confirmed cases. the world health organization has declared a global health emergency and you are p and health authorities are raising the risk level from low to moderate warning. that would be more cases if to some good food. i'll just 0. let's take a closer look at the spread of inbox and parts of africa. at least 14250 impulse cases have been reported in 10 countries across africa this year. and more than 456 people have died. the democratic republic of congo accounts for more than 96 percent of all cases in 97 percent of all debts. initial symptoms are similar to the flu and they can include ex, fever and swollen glands. they're followed by a painful rash that forms blisters. and pucks spreads through physical contact with infected people or contaminated surfaces and objects. it can also spread through contact with infected animals or you while the tomorrow is a viral logistics. redeemer is university and
1:18 pm
a he's with his life from ever done in nigeria. it's good to have you on the program. what's the impact situation in nigeria? how much has it spread? thank you very much. at the office, you have to go. we haven't had you guys not set your neck pieces since the beginning of the year, but the that's probably the get keep of the eyes that we've been having that problem. fences. 20. 15. 50. 17. anything going on? very yes. so yeah i, the number that we have is to me is a small number, but i think this is, jay was much worse than that. so with m fox making the news or people worried about it in nigeria, what's the level of awareness of the spread of this virus? and i do assume they're gonna see something on the side that i mean we've had before. 2017 on the mean on is starting to use or what do i do to kind of if he used to read on like on, which is where they are. in fact one pages on funding and crisis with the cdw neck
1:19 pm
is yeah. as well. so want to lose no margins that the world would be that'd be at least half the world health organization and the african center for disease control of both declared and fox and health emergency right globally. and for the continent of africa, nigeria, on a national level, has not declared this an emergency. do these labels matter to you at all as a biologist, and is the nigerian government taking this seriously enough? i mean, you've got to show that get me, i mean, but with the activities i didn't read, you know, the value on your, my country with what we're having, we're already, but obviously, yeah, government is what do you have? i don't, i think you said this is a, by the way, is something i didn't but, but which is die. and i think we need to hook you graduation. but both the african government and the vision will make a defense on we do need something that was there to 43 days ago. when you all know that wrapped his neck,
1:20 pm
his body's not his time talking about that was 70 talking about that don't. can we go now? we see that already we see on up with a, i'm sorry to say, but that's different. okay, well that it's into the next question. there are 2 paths to fight a virus as i understand it. prevention and vaccination. are those things happening in that julia? so that's it isn't forget. you just don't have the any way you have it that way to attempt to be me. so this which is what you do, what you before. so we've got the resources for when i, when do we need, i mean this way was not puppy zone to civilians without going to use that on the maybe i'll be as i'll be down by minute with several guys going here. i think was thinking or what your so vince, so what about the prevention part then you know, raising awareness, telling people about the symptoms, what to do if they get them installation, when they do contract the virus, etc, that they're part of civilians. we should be focusing on reaching the people and making them that where abuse freddy,
1:21 pm
how do you get you to watch those that are going on and does them say now, so they don't use right? read on get back. but then i think i'm time worried about you because there would you be, you know, just to get to go, look, i need to go, we were doing today's, you know, she'll be out there. d 913 before. nor did read with that because we had a program for me. it turned on me just checking and i'll do this on with you. maybe don't the explosion, i would probably won't do anything about are you while the tomorrow biologist at redeem is university at a thank you so much for your time. my pleasure. thank you. medical staff are on a nationwide strike in india, protesting against the rape and murder of a training doctor. they say the government has failed to keep people safe. image and kemper has more in these medical professionals, their own strike. c indian medical association, the country's largest doctors, you name is cool faction. of course,

1:31 pm
the, [000:00:00;00] the, you're watching else 0 reminder of our headlines this hour. at least 16 palestinians have been killed. it is really strikes on owls a way to a town near the bala and central gaza. the attacks come hours after mediators wrapped up see splintered fox and tara, which the us is calling promising. at least 50 rockets have been launched by hezbollah, from southern lebanon towards northern israel, or no reports of debts or casualties. as the law says, the attack is retaliation for israel, striking another ca on friday, killing 10 people. hundreds of thousands of health care workers in india have begun a national strike. this is in response to the rape and murder of
1:32 pm
a 31 year old training doctor, and which was for protests across the country. returning to our top story, garza ceasefire mediators, guitar egypt, in the united states, or projecting optimism after 2 days of talks into the white house. as the discussions were the most productive in months and will resume again in cairo next week. so let's bring in still time back out, professor of public policy at, i mean, been felicia university. you joining us from new york in the u. k. um, so the time it's got to talk to you, how do you feel about where we are in these parks given what we have right statements from the mediators. it's always a little hard to know what's really behind those statements. yeah, i mean the fact that they're talking about a bridge, a proposal, me is that the original proposal has not been accepted bible, the sites and they were not able to close the gap between us and israel in fact and still today is, are,
1:33 pm
has not publicly accepted that road the framework that was made out by binding on the 31st of may. ready during the, to the john was made in the most made ministry into i know through the united nation security concerned with bad resolution to 735. right? so the bridging, i think, is, is intended to give it a great to have the time more time and allow the process to continue. and maybe add one or 2 more components that were not part of the original equation. when by doing analysis is done, the most important i think, is the potential of diffusing that retaliation from there on in return for a cease fire in gaza. this must be something that's not being talked about. and it could be added to that mix for israel to consider. also important for me is i was perspective is the fact that now they know their captives. all right, great, that's right. not to, not just from their own bombing campaign,
1:34 pm
but they can actually be killed by those that are daunting them as happened a few days ago with one guy who need actually getting one of the captives simply because he goes to is on the, you know, what is it also about that they say that that captive was killed back in november just as a point of information. israel doesn't actually accept from us as version of events or well, i mean the way they, if they know so much that they have such a good intelligence, they would have found the captives on time ago and got them out. and i think is right, is very good and, you know, building up stories around these issues. i think where we are now. and the thing you know, who is, is it a very difficult position? he knows that the united states administration is in a critical stage and in terms of the elections and biden would be like to have us to use fire as soon as possible to allow harris and her campaign to regain some support for them to send data vote and he's trying to extend the confidence as much
1:35 pm
as possible. so of course, publicly he would like to look like he is supporting biden, and he is grateful for all the help that by the has given to him. but privately he must be laughing all the way to terms of ministration is taking his survival really able to be with the trump coming in. just trying to make it as difficult as possible to reach pen agreement. and you could see this by the level of acceleration and the way they stepped up and that i'd like some guys of this is a puts in there with the thing you know, has been for the last few months, every time that need for tools. they the, they increase their attacks on civilians. they make it very, very difficult for the policy is to even accept to consider an end to this war. given the scale of the vine is, uh, is there it is subjective to and what's been pretty noticeable in the last few days is israel has increased the pace of the force displacements. they are increasing
1:36 pm
what they call the evacuation zones. the palestinians have to flee. and in, in a way that's been pretty noticeable these last few days and the areas of the so called safe zones have been shrinking a still time back outside professor of public policy at 2nd towards home. i've been felicia university. thank you very much. thank you. so of the ukrainian military says it destroyed 2 bridges in russia's course region. the ukrainian armed forces released the video of one of the attacks in gustavo, on friday. russia's foreign ministry says ukrainian troops use western rockets keeps as its forces are moving further into western russia. the clinic uses the us of helping to plan this incursion. something which washington denies. ukrainian authorities say a russian airstrikes instead of car parking. so me that's in ukraine near the border with rushes course, the region,
1:37 pm
the straight cause 10 cars to catch fire and damaged residential buildings. ukraine immediate say at least 2 people interest. but we've got to correspondence standing by on this dorset. jabbar is in moscow 1st though, let's talk to alex could top a list or defense editor in keith. so you're monitoring developments on the various front lines. alex, what's on your radar right now? so it has to be the bridges over the same river. so in the final, the one of the bridges was destroyed on thursday, but the main attack, the main bridge across the same river, was in groups google. this is a large road bridge that was used by russia as a main supply route, also bring bringing reinforcements in you will have worse and you this for stump against the river as the ukrainians that funds. now busher has accused ukraine of using high mobs. precision guided rockets against the bridge itself. and
1:38 pm
it looks from what we've seen from the video evidence that the most indeed hit by a highly mas, unfortunately, for the ukrainians, is a high most over precise as a very small warheads. not big enough to destroy somebody as large as a concrete bridge. and they have to bring in another what looks like a large, delightful, possibly in the tech comes of all kids as well, with a much logical has to actually finish off the job. now this really complicates things for russia. they be building of home to bridge across the river in order to try and get men across and also supplies for the sake of the cold supplies of rushes that the russians will be forced to retreat, giving up significant amounts of territory to ukraine. alex, thank you very much for that. let's go to dorothy who is live for us for most the most go door. so what a russian official saying about the ukrainian incursion in the course region as well. so real, it's clear that there is not just about all that is taking place on the ground in the curse creature. and there's also the battle of the narrative for narratives.
1:39 pm
the russian side, adamant that they are preventing the ukrainian columns from advancing further into the cursed screech. and we have heard from local officials in that area saying that they continue to put up the fights against the ukrainian forces. and calling this incursion, a terrorist attack onto a russian soil. of course, this is the 1st time in the 80 years that rush, i seen a foreign troops enter its territory. so it's quite significant for the officials and they're adamant that they are putting up a fights and they're slowly we taking territory. we haven't had any specific on the ground updates from the defense ministry since thursday about any villages that they may have re taken from the ukrainians. but for now, we're being told that to the continued to repel attacks by you creating and forces elsewhere along the border. we have had another drone attack in it ship aquino, in belgrade region. and 2 people have been injured there. belgrade is now in
1:40 pm
a state of emergency as of thursday, that is just south of cross region. what is clear is that this battle is ongoing and it doesn't appear to be stopping from the crate inside. they continue to try and push forward, but the russians are adamant that there is reinforcements on the way and they will continue to put up a fight and try to repel any further advancements by the ukrainians. what is also interesting is that there is now a very strong narrative coming from various officials and analysts here that the weapons that are being used are american weapons that are being used by the quite new. so there seems to be a lot of blame being put on the americans up to now by the russians endorse the jewelry reporting from moscow. thank you very much door. so to a meeting of leaders of the south african, the southern african development community are static is underway in zimbabwe is capital herrera. fighting in the democratic republic of congo regional food
1:41 pm

1:42 pm
main thrust of this summit? the well i say the drought is a big issue. if the dry conditions continue, they will be serious. please sort of just in the region about in peace and security, it was a high on the agenda. official state of the substitutes in the democratic republic of congo have gained some job. but the challenge is a ceasefire. a recently the go straight to recently by and go a test for and the pods and fight to get still continuing. so just not being killed . so we could see with the some of this over lead is saying they'll say more troops to the d. c. mozambique is a bit more complicated, static tooth pulled out of that area. they put up, they've some kind of a back to you. we've been told that uh, forces some of the ones that will come in into those areas has a 2 of those areas. but security and those are concerned that the, if, if the is indeed some condos that can be on groups in northern mozambique. we take advantage of that, come in, continue fighting, and then displays thousands of people. and looks in bob way is hosting this summit,
1:43 pm
but also has to defend itself against serious accusations of human rights violations. to activists who were arrested recently have, according to a you and expert, been tortured, while in detention. how much attention is that getting into and by way as well in the private media is getting a lot of attention in the state and media and not so much when somebody being present an image. and then that will open the some a t fact. the ability to for coming you says thank you so much for not buying down to pressure from outside forces. he says, people, what did the summit moved away from somebody because of these alleged human rights abuses. what's been interesting is that the government says that they have intelligence, that the people who would come to the jail, i was planning, protest putting to disrupt the site, much embarrass above the so that the summit wouldn't go ahead and that's why they thing they are in jail, they say they committed a crime and they have to go to the whole court, pro se says that we don't know whether human rights to be discussed on the agenda. it's very, really does ask,
1:44 pm
you'll need his bill. the don't publicly criticize each other. they don't and just see any type of domestic issues, all that much. so it's a wait and see what happens. but sit through the active us to be watching to see what comes out of the stomach. if nothing does that will likely complain. that facility that i'm not taking these issues too seriously, and they'll put the as much as you need to and to push that to do more to get ask them to get us to protect freedom of expression, freedom of speech in a certain countries. however, with us are reporting from ari. thank you very much for that. our impulse purchase and bar as a development economist informed me. you and economic commission for africa consultants, thank you for joining us. so officially the summit is focused on spring economic growth in the region. how do these countries do that? what leverage do they have to achieve that? you know, so thank you so much say i obviously i think we have all which cut out for us is that agent in terms of spending fucked in the quote and say,
1:45 pm
as i said the little bit towards industrialize a subject region, it will get the world trajectory in a couple of minutes and most of all you call them is it's do quite a bit and i think and said it all it and we have not been able to find the box and inclusive brought all the time. it's we have a significant impact on or on pull that d a or 90 placement in or so or, or when any quality is so important that fremont this time it is on promoting you know, edition. and of course, we cannot totally look over what it is in terms of it, in short and trust in growth and development, weight height. that's what do you know? i'm trying to get to something concrete that they can do here because you've, you've presented the picture of the region. i understand it. what buttons can they press to try and unlock innovation to try and score it can only grow the other way . they look, that needs to be done the 1st and foremost out around the doing business environment. in most countries it's to a better way to challenging to set up
1:46 pm
a business to get a business license. and so you know the vision for that. what through that direction, all fit equipment, a government that can go a little way in terms of simplifying that and also even the techs in most countries inside the, it's the, on the very, i side bid on that. i saw obviously that this cottages investments so well definitely an investment, but even investment by other if i did, can count on it. so i think that the look that needs to be done out around the doing business environment. then the look that needs to be done, not around the strengthening institutions is a way of addressing a quarter auction for the mid jobs. it probably it most sudden caught them, use a it one time we did a study, it was the environment and we have had a found out that's a good auction, imposes that quite a bit and premium play or on the cost of doing business as photos spending institutions that can go a long way in terms of discouraging, quite often,
1:47 pm
including the listed financial rewards. so, and we're losing a little money, is it through it list advantage of the lowest point. but i've been able to type in a while since didn't all financial systems tighten all pulled up. and i think that it also does cottage elizabeth to floor. and that's what we hope in terms of ensuring that we retain a lot of water. and so it's a financial resources, it's really interesting prosper what you say, putting a number on the cost of corruption. i never heard that you're saying basically it's 40 percent more expensive to do business in this part of the world in the i beg your pardon. i miss for a 20 percent 20 percent more expensive to the business on account of corruption. you're also saying, um the leaders regional leaders could make it easier to set up a business. and if i heard right tech is too expensive as well. access to tech. is that right? yeah. no, i'm thing takes the to is this in the takes by jim that takes the regime. so the picture thinks is a problem with you that takes that beside the takes. that'd be that. so. oh,
1:48 pm
that's the that's, that's going to be a look up for me that the minutes. okay. and just don't want me to college both. so what me that challenge also is the, is the live was looking for money to phone average. how about a to defend or for the kids are totally implemented by the country is, is that clean for more improvements? it's all just so that basically it's charlotte and just for the governments in terms of domestic results, mobilization, but hopefully the people that it came out and leaving more that are living within the boy put on his old info. my date is associated number one with the low level of productivity, low levels of income, and i live with a full budget. so one of the key issues that we must address is the region, okay, is the i live in beaumont employment. okay. i have to run, but we hear you and we will remember that fight corruption, the size of the informal sector and the tax infrastructure of all of that or leave or is that these regional leaders can activate. thank you very much. cross bridget
