problems these a lot, while the government in the hague is trying to limit the democratic rights they, i'm here to define a protest that they say we need to speak out against the genocide and got them after allowing them to protest for our police doctor to detain more than 200 demonstrators by one, the advancing south proposition fighters in syria see the vented parts of how my city is just 200 kilometers north of the capitol, damascus. the army and fish fish repelling the attacks. the syrian government launches s y x on the left for a day after opposition sizes captured the 2nd largest, the

. so i'm fully back to where you're watching l g 0 live from to ha. also coming up, i saw a charity suspenses operations in casa, after 3 of his workers accusing on is ready as strike and counting the votes in islands national. he mentions the initial results, suggest a close race between the 3 biggest parties. the thank you for joining us. it's 19 gmc and we start with fast moving developments in syria with president bush on the side is facing the biggest challenge to his role in years. opposition side is i've made significant gains in just a few days if they can control of the country. second biggest city level, including is that board. and now they say they have reached another important city on the way to the capital damascus. the fight is of interest, some neighborhoods of how my city and troops have withdrawn from the positions,

but the government has rejected those claim, say its forces deployed in the home, a countryside and ready to repel any attack. meanwhile, has been as strikes on the north western city of a level, the escalation has led to a flurry of diplomatic activity. the rainy interrogation russian foreign ministers have held phone talk. the talks on the phone and the ron for administer is set to travel to syria on sunday, and then to to a key. i'll just hear a sit in kosovo begins i coverage from had paid yet turkey's border with sir in a surprising move on saturday, the opposition factions locked by the h. d, as a, a tough or a some are addressing towards hama after they took control of the city of elect people. and it's a conference size. also the position sections to control of many other places in it live. and they announce that they have full control of the province along with important a ports like a default, a port in northwest syria. and where is

a report and it's an alaska? no one was expecting that the opposition would advance on the ground so quickly. and again, so made the territories but given the weakness of the syrian army and the lack of russian assistance and other part of military factions to affections and find that they are trying to benefit from this. on the other hand, diplomacy is under way to support administered how come for them. it help phone conversations with his russian country and lebanese counterparts. and it, what we are hearing from inside syria is that turkish backed us and they factions, pre syrian army factions, are advancing towards tell her thoughts and to liberate the city. as they say from the syrian curtis groups. how things are going to develop on the ground is full of surprises, as villages and towns are changing,

hands by the hour. see now because sol houses here outside on the 2 kids syria border. let's look at who controls want in syria. the syrian government forces backed by russia and yvonne regained control of most of the country during the 13 years civil war. while opposition forces backed by took it remained in charge of areas across the north with high at terry. alshaun dominating in the province in the northwest. the syrian democratic forces or the s d f made up of main b y, p g. curtis, fines is and batch by the us control, much of northeastern syria, particularly of rock house. okay. and parts of verizon. this area is home to significant oil reserves. take a conducted 3 major incursions into northern syria between 201620192 create what it called a save. so no long it's 7 border. and it now wants to code is dominated as the forces to leave ta refund and mon jeep, my beach and move east. so the euphrates river, joining us now is to heat a sadie,

who is a writer, especially as any reading and affairs. he is live from table on thank you to wait for being with us, a lot of different medic activity as we heard as the situation on the ground in syria, evolves rapidly. we have yvonne's foreign minister heading to syria on sunday and then to turkey table and we know has been a storm child. i of the drawbridge game during the war. how worried easy waiting government right now about these fast moving developments in syria, and what can we expect from the ford mr. has visit to take a well actually let me see here into ron is an active line of diplomacy actor to tasha this year. we started to search and with that we see several important developments, uranian foreign minister is going to pay a visit to damascus and later to turkey. and the 3rd destination, which has yet to be and now these are old and they can types of how concerned iran has got pertaining to the latest developments. but if you look at different to statements, including the one coming out of the phone,

conversation between your baby and foreign minister and his russian concert part, there are at least 4 messages that could be received throughout the message to do 2 of these. the statements. first, iran is not happy with the situation iranian farm mister condemned. this attacks attributed to a group reactivate of terrorist, according to the foreign minister, and also the spokesperson for funding farm industry, condemned, and the other part of the attack to maintenance costs. let in. i'll let follow, this is in charge of insurance. and then the 2nd point in this regard is that iran seized and perceive it as a sort of is really us client of action that tries to destabilize the situation. you can see it again in the same statement from the foreign ministry and from other you gaining off the shows yesterday from the uranium, the speaker, for the parliament and uranian heads for our g. c. they have the same echo that

this is going to be a scenario that has been devised by the americans. and by these really is there is a serious concern in this regard. as though also, there is a search point in disregard, which is related to the continuation of ross and they bring support for the is really for the actually a syrian government. there are several reasons for that. the importance of bilateral relations, it goes with the fake and the courtney door that the wrong be choirs to get connected to a resident front. and this is critically important that the role of syria becomes highly important in this regard site. and the last point to find me is the joint action that the one is looking for. that's why they had, that's why we see this active line of diplomacy rang and far mr. told to sir gay law growth part. he had similar conversations with with others. that's are that they are all indicative of the very fact that the wrong is looking for building

a consensus in the region in order to secure it's nationally, it's red shirt and active line of diplomacy. and indeed there is, um, you know, in some quarters the defense that off to what's happened with has a lot in, in lebanon. and thomas and guys are, there is a sense that he won, could be losing control. some control in the region will tell, ron, intervene to have in the ways done in the past to help prop up syria's government a vote. uh, it seems that from the states moves and from the course of action that the c a tear on is closely following the developments and is trying to balance. it's joe political objectives with respect to the realities on the ground. of course, we can expect any course of action by you are wrong in case the national interest of the country is under jeopardy. and we know that under this highly tension stitch

ration we can expect such a scenario that goes without saying that the ronnie is, are saying that they are not interested in full fledged old out. busy scenarios but in case there's a c. busy or national interest under any kind of jeopardy, there would be a possibility of any sort of action as i told you. so with that, so i think we have to wait for the couple of next weeks from the rang and perspective. these really is have lost their war in gaza. they have lost it. busy and 11 on, and they're trying to open up dispatch on the field each a new area as into new spaces. and that is the complex to be that becomes further and further. and iran is getting ready to deal with this complex the under that 6 circumstance, i think how future could unfroze remains to be seen. thank you. to huge for the, for speaking to us about this toyota savvy, any reading and writing especially so be renewed of has joining us at frontier bye

. hello mia. we spoke to holland omen, who is a senior advisor of the atlantic council and chairman of the kilbourne group of government advisory firm. he says it's too early to assess the effectiveness of the fighters, military advancements. but the syrian government may be in difficulty of the opposition could amount to at least a $150000.00 fighters. and as you pointed out, the leadership and the mixture of people who are in support of the opposition are very, very barry from the united states. there's real concern that there may be too many solid fish, but people think that the united states may be overly sensitive to that. but this, the answers to really my thinking is that the opposition has the administration in the sit on it. i saw this on the run, the russians have been very, very frustrated, not being able to train of the syrian army and the reports of the syrian military retreating and running away from the fight. i think a fairly accurate uh the diplomacy is going to be very complicated as you point out . and there is a likelihood that the assad regime for the 1st time in

a long time is under great track. now, what this means will be worked out the next couple of days, but you already have the crisis and casa, perhaps the, as will. our truth with israel has been put in place for the time being iran, his book, the book party here. what's gonna happen between the foreign minister of turkey and the foreign minister rusher, remained to be seen the soonest of the situation is at best flexible. but there's a real chance here that the assad administration is under great, great difficulty and the supporting parties, namely russia really do not have enough military equipment to be fully supported, simply because you're locked in and then you create the . now within the last hour, we're getting reports that are at least 40 palestinians have been killed in northern guys after these really striking a residential building. official say the attack happen in the tell as con,

neighborhood as the latest in a series of relentless is really attacks across this trip since don, which of kills thousands of people. people say there's no safe place to go and gas . i'm hungry for some of those early as strikes kind of feeds into schiffwood one neighborhood or does a city be venturing out unlike the intense is really bombardment a how much as a to your son on these approximate pieces? what's left of it now? several civilians working in these the us strike very so we're not going to come out and speak with them. there was no safe place. residents are being bombarded, explosive barrows are thrown down at them at the houses, mac, its streets, shelters, schools. there is no safe place. where should these displaced people go? there was no safe place for se problem. the compartments of continued across the besieged because the street more than 44000 palestinians of been killed

in the is there any genocide in god's that those who survived relentless attacks were starving and seeking 40 from the community. and groups comes from pete's own research and seldom does insight targeted palestinians teen so food 8, you can use killing at least a dozen to these people who are receiving a know to one of them was part of that as they were just getting a den 1st of the civilians were targeted. everyone is at the top of the book, kate and bones. district defeated the meanings communicating agencies stop overwhelm and keep watching a huge cost. 48 was sent to kitchen, has suspended operations. and because of the, the it staff members walk you by and these are you struck in con eunice on saturday? it was that, that time to try and targeted believe the see it look on most other places. he was

driving his car on cellar, how the road as he normally does every day when he's going to work to the stores in the kitchens without any problem. today he went out to work as usual and took cell outing road and was targeted without prior warning and without any reason. more than a yell if there is war and guns of feelings, a wondering when to when we see a debt crisis will help him him to live in on his health ministry says and is really striking a car in the southern village of my child zone has enjoy injured 3 people, including a child, sees 511 on his now and it's for the day displace residence in 711 on have begun to clear out the rumble left by is really strikes and several cities. these are the air force. i also targeted what it says was hezbollah, military infrastructure, near the border with syria that was being used to trying to weapons into 11 on how the, how shim is following developments, from tire in 711 on the vin, uh,

many violations of these, this will deliver these off complaining golf, especially with the latest strike, the upside doing in the area of the base every year. and also they've been up to an attack on a call close to tie it in most as on what a child was injured alongside with others. and of course they, the artillery over time kept shutting on several villages, incursions into ad. yes, that is really ami was in, in still ahead on algae 0. the another so defines in george's capital, the government says it won't get into the protesters. your demands and arrests have been made in an attack on a key come out in cost of a vital release. energy and water supply. the

pod came in to be used could be interim head for 4 years, which is pretty much an electrical terms. now i didn't say that that will be for 40 years facing realities. what does donald trump's re election mean? pretty tough. it is most important that we focus on how to work with president trump thought provoking on self. and your wife is dealing with the climate crisis is a crisis of crisis good times. but there's not just one prices up via the story on talk to how does era a full year of war in gaza. and now with this really troops invading lebanon, are the us in israel working to reshape the entire region. now with trump back in the white house. ready ready in america expect, and what can the world expand? so quickly to look at us politics. the bottom line here is from,

i'll just on the go and meet tonight out is there is only mobile app. is that the, this is where we just fix allies from out is there is a mobile app available in your favorites apps to just set for it and typed on a new app from out to 0 new at you think? is it the or the you're watching out your 0 life? i'm to high a reminder about top stories, syrian opposition by the state of interest, some neighborhoods of how much 5200 kilometers from the capital, damascus forcing government troops to withdraw. the government rejects the claim,

saying its forces destroyed in the hama countryside ready to repel any attack. the russian defense minister in the law says it's carried out as attacks on syria and opposition fighters. with all the government forces the vince rights on the northwest and to be of a nipple. the attacks come a day after opposition fighters captured serious, 2nd largest, and in guys of the agency, world central kitchen has suspended this operations. after coming under is really attack the fed, 3 members of its team were killed in an hash rides on a car in and out of wells news. islands election appears to have delivered a return to power for centers coordination partners. initial results indicate that the main opposition party champagne is naturally leading with 21 point one percent of the votes. that's less than a one percent difference was seen a gap peanut fall is 3rd with 19.5 percent of the volts during the hallway for some documents. the counting of votes in island will go on through the weekend with one

likely result, beginning to emerge. the major parties on neck and neck, putting the currently governing fee to go and see on the floor in line to continue their center right coalition. i think it is important that we are in a position to form a coherent, stable government after the selection that can meet the very serious challenges that fits to school. that would leave the left wing nationalist shouldn't fame, promising change, but locked out and, you know, position the policies century old goal of uniting the republic of ireland with the north receding. for now, i would stress the way that argues an outlier here in europe. it's, it's, it's not voting for a change. the government has been returned and the opposition is quite fragmented. champagne every, nothing on the door now for a long time. and this was supposed to be their big opportunity if you'd asked me a year ago, i would have said it shouldn't. fingerprint was a certainty because they were 36 percent of the opinion polls. they were more or

less eclipse and clean the fault of their, their time is not your come, the likely results in a continuation of the state. this quote with significant support for the 2 main center ride crossings with many now c as one see to guarantee on a fall in coalition since 2020 have speed to become one of the richest countries per capita in the european union. and those who campaigned for change complaining that hardworking irish families be left behind. well, there's not much change to be found here. during the whole elder 0 dublin, the usaa suspended is strategic partnership with georgia. the following ongoing protests against the government's decision to suspend talks to join the european union tension has been growing since the governing georgian dream party, one last, once legislative elections. so near day a report, another evening gathered in front of the judge in parliament defiant, displayed the heavy track down by police the night before or the message to the

government. but they would stand firm in the face of the actions and continue to stand by plans for georgia to join the european union which is enshrined in its constitution. people of georgia is trying to protect their constitution, trying to protect their country and the state. and they are trying to tell our government that we work low means everything and integration into the european union and use our future. this was the see the night before thousands of people furious for the government's decision to turn away from inclusive ties with the youth. met by police. he just passed the crowd with a voice, a cannon despise to base the government double down valley and to prevent any kind of revolution from taking place. give us hopes on the thompson that is going to put so there will be no more than in georgia. today's georgia is in no sense you created with 2013 and that's why the item scenario will not be realized.

and the youngest, held by pro e u supporters has been bubbling away since the populace pro russian governing georgia dream. one last month's parliamentary elections, a vote that was mode white accusations of rigging and intimidation. you has questioned the results and calls for the election to be held again on the international supervision and appeal supported by the countries president. he said she would not leave office when had time ends next month, couldn't squared the water. we are entirely by you side. and we will remain united until georgia achieves that schools to return to its european pos via secure new elections and ensure that it's few chaise protected once. and for all of our protest is may face a long and difficult road with a government that has a different vision for that country. the anger may keep them on the streets, but the hope that god and will come around and listen to that to months. soon as i

eval elders era because of his prime minister, say several suspects have been arrested in relation to an explosion at a key. can all wish supplies water to 2 major pol science. i've been coach. he blamed what he called guns control by serbia. a soviet has denied any involvement so, so these are working to repair the canal which is vital to cost of those electricity supply. me. i made a very for simplicity. now, the explosion of them is the canal in north uncomfortable left, more than 200000 people without drinking water in that region. and the risk interrupting the water supply to, to cold fire follower plans that generate nearly all of the electricity and costs of them comfortable prime minister being 40 blames neighboring. so it'd be a 4 as he said, a criminal. and 3rd, was the fact aimed at destroying comfortable proof of infrastructure. soviet officials have denied the accusations of only yesterday comfortable decided to

increase if you with the measure of solve. there's 2 recent attacks in which hand grenades were thrown at the police station. the end of municipal building the north in cost of over ethnic serfs are still reluctant to integrate into kosovo institutions, comfortable pride. and that's what i've been posting, believes that these 3 effects, which took place in north, uncomfortable during 72 hours, are linked and that sylvia aims to the civilized costs of. oh, so security has to be stuffed up. why left wants to are under way to repair the damage to the canal? the water supply for power plants has to be restored and the explosion did not affect the electricity production directly. while i left for the restore, regular drinking water supplies in the north of costs of oak continue of the of may, they also see the fish, the south african police ministers place to rescue old miners dropped in a disuse gold. mine is police. some of them are being held against their will by

armed gangs, hiring latasha every for some sill. fontaine in the area is quoted. and also you can see this type of the police say this is still a crime scene, or would they buy those rugs? that's where the microsoft is, is believe that possibly how does have been, are still stuck on the ground. the police minister says the rescue team is ready to go in and get them possibly next week. communicate as a whole thing. the government is in c a. the side and the risk operation will actually take that. no, i don't believe. what do you kind of do now? i'd be like this friday does through that day each and every 3rd you're now is cheaper than someone wednesday underground. so i'm going say was, are the someone who's day you might be 5 flag you to describe the difference in recent days, hundreds of miles have emerged from the ground. they've come up on their own. it wasn't a police assistance or a government's recovery. they came up for them terribly. some of them are being

adults, and some of them had been children, teenagers, even mining has been a big problem. and so that's good for dick is the piece of struggle to contain and that's where they started operation. while i'm going to offer us and close the whole, but it's putting very challenging for the police to police this particular area and other parts of the country way the remaining is still taking place. harden with us, i'll just and i still think sought after the storms and flooding have to space hundreds of thousands of people across india, sri lanka, and thailand and cycling st. gone, made line for a short time ago in india with potentially devastating consequences for timing out of state. but i have a more step. it has more. these are the flooded streets of one of india's biggest cities tonight. it was caused by heavy rains even before sight one finger made landfill. people living in no line towns along india, south eastern coast, had been moved to temporary shelters. regional authorities say they were king

quickly to ensure safety. we have taken the precaution that emissions, including a recreation of the a little bit and model is coming, are designed to bring them to a safe window, sent them to please. the storm is affecting civil countries across the south asia in sri lanka, officials on higher loads of different goals, go to the island shows. earlier this week, several people were killed and thousands more displaced by torrential rains, which have also flooded a great cultural lands along the eastern coast. emergency cruise and the navy have been carrying a rescue operations and assisting those affected in how to reach areas. how the you with it is this where the system is moving away. its effect on the island will further reduce. however, relatively heavy rains will continue in the northern, and tru, and comedy areas. across the bay in thailand, rescue teams are delivering food and supplies to affected areas more than 4 days of severe flooding that has killed several and live thousands more homeless.

meteorologist say have human soon range boat slash flights and waves of up to 3 meters high. and they won't, the worst is not over yet. i haven't looked at the o g 0 has been used for now. stay with us for top to obviously or next. thanks on the the to tend to be just now will pile up in northern greece in dog area and will specify already and probably, albania over the next day or 2 running around this low here, which is also generating may just send to stones via from boston particularly in the g, them less than 30, we're ready to be more of a problem. the rest of europe is sitting area under these without increasing the sun, the scar, is it basically,

but it's very cold. the malware that's been spitting into northwest, we'll make some more progress. so it's a fear, maybe no venture, the snow gets, it's worse maybe on monday, but it's not typically heavy here. and then it all sort of drift slowly. science which was this is allowed to come in. so for friends from those in spain, on daughter and germany, you'll see a change to run a little lucky with a site for some of the opposite visit lee. and then a bit of a breeze coming on the low countries often will say nose calls, it was there for those oscar very crosses and i haven't heard back from the seasonal wind isn't very strong. if you're on the north coast of libya, or maybe each of you will be when do the few shares for the coastal shells in west africa. all very like very limited. maybe to gonna cause a seasonal range, taking that rain heavy stuff for this has to get them no longer in uganda, but probably what now in terms of the the,

the limit to how far dream continue to study in your own adventure. now, a counter and we only need the, the coming well, the one a true association of 56 nations, mostly for my british colonies, often highlights its shed values and desperation broad as well. faces mounting challenges from the climate crisis to economic inequality. questions about its relevance of growing louder demands for accountability and
