6:00 pm
it could lead to some cleaning the pressure that the lives of seduce who much of a button the the on several venue. it's good to have you with it. this is the news our life from don't coming up in the program today. the opposition fighters in syria and make major events is saying they are now just outside the campus of damascus. israel target's more residential buildings in the air strikes across garza, at least 23 people have been killed since dawn on saturday. the south korea's president avoids impeachment, but another pop out of office could be on the horizon and voters in gun or
6:01 pm
choosing their next president's in a close race, overshadowed by a struggling economy. that on piece of statements with useful tools including the fosters 16 year old ever over 200 meters sensation delta gulf briggs, civil record for fuel stadium, schools championships and is quicker than you st. paul for his at the same age. the . so we start with this breaking news out of syria, all positions fighters advancing from the south have reached the country side around the capital for the serial army says is not withdrawn from areas near damascus, and the syrian government has dismissed room is that the president has left the capital opposition forces launched an unexpected defensive last week, taking major cities and towns in quick succession. the government has lost control of major cities, including on a level comma,
6:02 pm
and there are themselves opposition fighters say that they are determined to take the capital, which i do not do much. why did it move to how we are heading for damascus? and we will meet density on my up square today. a total of national liberation is being lifted by syrians. the spark of revolution was ignited and hold on. those bless to this on the must join forces with assuming under pollution aries, on the collective national umbrella. we must a complete throughout position and 6, the end of tourney, reinforcing justice, equality and dignity. as and opposition fighters. the northern syria have been advancing south and they have reached our respect that is near the city of homes known as the capital of the revolution. government forces say they are carrying out air strikes in that area to hold that advance houses here as well, sort ours and goes against it that's on the turkish border with syria. we're so how close to the capital are the opposition fighters at the moment?
6:03 pm
well as a positional fight, as organized, or physician fighters, 60 kilometers. so it is center main account that's known sent. i mean from this to defer to the souls of the capital, the mask. so officially that down has been taken by the opposition. however, if you are asking about whether now the government is losing the controls at the tone that are extremely close to it, damascus, yes, that's also correct because there are times of the cold, the quote german jeremiah and then also did i. yeah. so one of them is just painted on because the weight and the other is 12 to the weight. so the opposing forces as not taking the couple of these locations, but the people, seeing that the government is losing the control across the country, are now going up and going against the government, taking over this, the facilities, the government buildings and public don't do that. the speakers that are
6:04 pm
representing the, the sub famously and particularly now the service of the president of syria and his father. half of that, that's just seen injured amount of people that have doubled his spaces. and so, so know there are security measures very much close to the capital damascus, roughly around the tank to them of the given use someplace as 5 kilometers. however, that doesn't mean that the position forces on know 510 kilometers away from the capital. but rather, people are authorizing and taking these small towns around the capital. but the method is, is, is that in some of the neighborhoods for, for 2 topics of the mass before given that the sofa and the depth of the mass, cuz you're seeing some of the government soldiers troops on the stock and they're leaving the pools. so when you look at that, then you will see that the government is losing the control and not only from the cell from the use you have seen that to
6:05 pm
a position forces have to pay can tell me the problem is. so let me pull that one because in 2014, you remember when i says as taking the control off or tells me that they have destroyed several historical monuments. no, that is under the control of the position. and the practically means the government is disconnected. from the, for the entirely, from the old used to parts of the country. and when it comes to the no, no, the position on engaging in a fight in the city of homes that is roughly around 12180 kilometer. so when you look at this picture, you will see that the government is mostly squeeze into the capital, damascus, and it's been a circle from the north east and the cell is the army fighting back. and if so, what does that look like? well, in some places, yes, particularly when they are backed by a russian a strikes such as we have seen that today,
6:06 pm
they have conducted heavy as tribes this one in, in the russ span. uh and in tell these uh, these 2 towns are between the city of how much that has been just taken on the go to the physician a couple of days ago and, and between the, the, the. busy hold the city of homes, the 3rd largest, the do of serial where the position actually is trying to take over. so we have seen expensive russian is folks over there. yeah. yeah. in the sense they are fighting back. but practically, if you're talking about the government of the, the government troops engage in many fully, i guess the position forces, particularly on the ground and face to face. no, not that much so far because there is a fee fact and now in place, wherever the opposition forces are engaging with originally with the government forces you're seeing that easily if they are to position. if the government forces, i'm not receiving the support, they are easily leaving, they're leaving the force. but in some of the places like for example,
6:07 pm
use the province of data sort, which is a strategic place i'd have to. additionally, been under the courts were mostly been under the control of the senior government since the beginning of the city in crisis in 2011. we have seen that the government forces just to be thrown from the city. they withdrawn from the city where they withdrawn from alba come on board the gate, and in that uh, used to wait for them to sold as well in the places they are not engaging the fight against do a position right. i'll sure 0 saw so dar in guess the entity near the board with syria. thank you very much. and nor day has more now from another border crossing between jordan and syria, the standing of the job that border crossing between jordan and syria, the jordanian authorities have closed the borders between the 2 countries wanting to shut away any spillover of the events transpiring in syria but they have allowed
6:08 pm
jordanian nationals to come into the country and every now and again, those gates open and jordanian nationals are able to cross back home. hold on, seattle. we were visiting family in syria. first. we were told the voters were closed and then we were told to dining and national was can go home. also on the border, dozens of syrians who didn't anticipate things would develop so fast. they're stuck now when jordan trying to get back to their families, begun, which we want to get back to our families. just select a loud jordanians to return. we want them to let us go to our homeless moment. oh good. i'm passengers have completely stopped here. so the syrians wanting to go home the door, dania is trying to get back home, will continue to struggle to achieve their goals. but the jordanian authorities don't want to repeat, being touched and affected by the conflict in syria until there are clear answers of who is in control of the syrian side of the border. situation here would remain
6:09 pm
as is all the address data on the job, but border between jordan and syria in the fighting in syria is one of the main topics being discussed here at the doha for. and the number of leaders are inc. atara for this conference. the foreign ministers of iran, turkey and russia, have met to discuss the developments in syria on the sidelines of the meeting. a russian foreign minister, so again elaborate off has condemned recent advances by opposition groups in northern syria. during his interview without the zeros diplomatic editor james base, he called opposition fighters terrorists and said their capture of territory was illegal. the seats in the visible, but they allow that there is a group to take control of the lens in violation of agreements which exist starting . it was the un security council resolution $2254.00 which strongly read the rates . it's $72.00 total integrity and unit 2 over the cedar and they're pretty popular
6:10 pm
. which can them in yet them spike better is to disturb the life of syrians and reach goal for direct dialogue between the government. then the position and the position group were listed in the present. this underway, bucklin off as the deputy chairman of the board of the association of russian diplomats. you're also a former russian diplomats are joining us from moscow. thank you. in recent years, russia has been absolutely committed to keeping the charlotte out in power. is that still the case? actually we were trying to do in both directions for us to we best of course we could as a better team and of course isn't actually the same time we'll try and do that is right, the situation and do oh sure. uh, the shortest concern to phil's deal that is a little due to. busy history for. busy including the organizing of the day
6:11 pm
a little oh we must come 1st of the. busy not the big, big some, some of the grounds they gave for the position. but you, you mentioned that the russian military assets, naval and air assets came into play in 2015. so some 9 years ago. and in a pretty major way, i would add to keep our sharla side in power could rush to do that again a well actually i. busy left 3 months a week after to just before because of the international terrorist organization. the. busy of the so please let me. busy just. busy get started so we're starting to look at all the she really. busy uh government and we extract against immeasurable that is book instead of the read i'm, here's the plumber right out so that we are so blind to publish
6:12 pm
a page uh in the uh these. busy middle east portals uh between the product and service building. she there but it's the neighbor. so we were matching up money land because there was a danger is that the. busy the uh, the. busy most. busy of all looks good review being present and so the international we're dreaming. oh much. ringback rational ted or something is i should, should that towards discharge. that's it, hold on one, let me ask for, and i know i'm circling around the same sort of topic here. but let me ask the question this way. if it becomes clear as it could very well be the case in the coming days, that really the only thing standing between a side and a complete route by the opposition fighters. if the only thing is russian intervention would rush or intervene. that is my question or would russia accept
6:13 pm
a post aside syria it's difficult to say that. busy this generation or we don't want to have any. busy you know, i mean very, very limited. the months for the, for when she georgia, we have started or happens no more. the forgive you for, for political, for give you rooms. we are for g, u o over the original fan or so look, we'll see, we'll see that there's been a big chunk, she'd give it to do with that. and with the back and then the, the president of the we had an examining was a wrong thing. the rest of the situation, the 1st literally political element of our became her and the problem. okay. andre bagley not deputy chairman of the board of the association of russian diplomats. thank you for joining us on the else as the renews are
6:14 pm
now on the shore itself. is there a senior political analyst who are joining us from london more one as ever? it's good to talk to you. look, certain government forces are retreating across the country, sometimes without a fight, often without a fight. how do you think? and we just spoke to our russian guest there, how do you think syria's main backers, russia and iran are processing all of this? let me give you one of the reading to the next $48.00 to $72.00. maybe a few days more as to where russia will you be. i think we are reaching a moment of uh, the front of side on uh for russia, the front of damascus. if you remember the photo site gun and 75, that's when the americans had the fleet vietnam, a problem that will stop of their embassies inside on. and i think we might be approaching the moment when the russians are going to be fleeing from their invest
6:15 pm
in damascus is the situation continues and assess speed uh, to work against russia, iran, and it's all i, i saw that all. i awesome. and i think this is really becoming quite a um you know, a possibly a probable scenario at this point in time. it's actually not just, you know, i defeat the humiliation for the russians in syria, but could also be a major disaster because i think that's what the rushes into. the runners are trying to work out with the turks in door how this week. they tried to find out, i think if they could organize their defeat because if they just defeated in humiliation or humiliated and defeat, then we got c major. i'm not coming through in damascus within
6:16 pm
the next few weeks and months. i think if and if anyone's interested seems that they need to organize the defeat device that they need to organize the withdrawal of russians from syria and they need to organize the transitional process. moving forward a post i said, i think these are that kind of thing. they probably are thinking about, i am not sure any one of them at this point in time at this point time thinking about how they going to save aside and recover syria from the, from better of those that are basically taking every other city as we speak okay, best interest and you're saying at this point russia, iran, assad's backers, and probably thinking of how to organize post aside rather than whether there is going to be a post aside just so you know what we're seeing and the story is good. yeah, go ahead. the just making you aware that the of the footage that we're seeing um, just so you know what the words are seeing when you're talking to them. it's a footage of syrian troops retreating into iraq,
6:17 pm
syrian troops that have left syria a supposedly. okay. we'll confirm this as soon as we can, leaving the battlefield in syria and have retreated to iraq. sorry, go ahead. more one is just old breathtaking stories. i mean, we watch these images and just over the past few days just since last week, and it's really broad clicking in every possible way. anyone who's been looking at this, i've written, you know, part of the whole book about this back in, in 2012, the idea that a dozen years of some of the, uh, serial producing 1st broke out from that. all that we see the front of the machine in the centralized today's it's just, it's just an amazing development and decision in the history of c or the me what i was telling me about actually organizing busy. because really at this point in time, we don't know what the long term is going to break. so i think clearly the city is don't want to have a sense in the future. so i think you're wrong on rush. i could probably need to
6:18 pm
start talking about that. the thing is with the one, and that's a bit of the unknown scenario, right? because i think for the options, there's definitely, so i'm going to wait for the ring is the disagreements to me. it seems to me, or rather i'm convinced that they are windows, are not in agreement amongst themselves about what to do next and see. i think the next, the new person in the one and his answer wise is not exactly on the same page as that of reason and guards about what to do about syria or would have to intervene or not is here. and i think this thing going on for a few days now and the fact that they have not done anything except call me in the hall that was made that they are not about to sage. they're all. i said this is a major set back for one. so you're starting to answer my next question and i was hoping you could give our viewers a little bit of a, of a guide to the next few hours the next few days because things are moving. so fast,
6:19 pm
militarily, diplomatically, i wonder what your watching specifically, you know, that you think is, is relevant and, and, and telling about where this is all going. so i think the best thing this is happening, although i don't have, i'm reading the minutes of the meeting of the 3 for our ministers in the i think that's the i think it was also key to see that 3040 minutes says nothing about that . but i think more importantly, the 3 stakeholders, therapeutic iran and russia meeting a door, how under the auspices of the country for the ministry, i think that's huge. and i think that hopefully should start now producing some results. i think the dogs probably wouldn't be existing in their conditions because they are setting the or they're all eyes or so it can be winning in celia. i think russia and the one, as i said, would try to organize the sheet because they don't want to leave in the human. the
6:20 pm
issue, i think for us are, there is no future answer that question is what sex? i think that's what everyone needs to come and talking about. oh, now the regional stakeholders, including those who can't afford to have for those who can financially, politically extra subjects able to stay by syria because it's just a question of sides. on 75, i said supporting and all the various levels going in this is going to be, i know this is not going to be a smooth transition. that's why they're throwing up to the room. all those responsible, the neighbors on all those needs to step in and try to organize a post as an error. whereby it, we'd be clear with the vision, whether or not what most people who are now part of the nation instead of out of course to have a say. and it's a no. meaning they just have to give celia back to the syrians. i went from this uh, default policy as well, by the way, this is a kind of as the weekly work of the year,
6:21 pm
it is rolled by divorced delia has been ruled by the worst for the past 60. busy it's time to go beyond that. i was a 0 senior diplomatic editor, mironda shar, thank you very much. the is really force is killed at least $63.00 palestinians across the strip since dawn on friday. and that includes at least $23.00 people were killed by strike on the house. and on this, they rock the refugee camp in the center of the strip. women and children are among the victims. many bodies remain buried under the rubble of the destroyed building and speak. now is a tar couple, a zoom. who was in there about on central gaza. sorry. what were you learning about what happened in the se, rocks? it was a very close the tax that took place yesterday evening getting under the rocks and
6:22 pm
the refuge account in one of the neighborhoods that was very densely populated with displaced a multiple story moving in fact through loss targeted without any prior warnings based and high witnesses accounts and they have stated that at least a 23 palestinians were confirmed to we just look back at the solid to the side. we'd like to find out the she magnitude of destruction took place for the neighborhood for even neighboring areas that has been widely impact submissively from the attack. and today they've, there has been a new, significant development of the place within the past. our civil defense. what does, who were left racing in? the area of the site managed to recover full of us to 1000000000 for weren't killed in the attack. and they weren't transferred out for an airport and i was a hospital voted to be a provide lights of full burial. this is what happened just now i go, wow, this has been one of the significance off the mouth of the attack. people have been
6:23 pm
buried under tons of victories without being properly rescued. um, so now the process of rescue is still taking place west fully involve banding together with civil defense. 2 what, cuz to look for anyone who could be a lot or even be killed in order to prevent having the burial, the dinners erupt with you to compass one of the areas that has seen in the stability for more than over a year post. it's very significant geographical location too, and it's very important. it's one of the closest area to and it's very included whether it is what a military now is heavily exist. and basically you, they have been a fumbling at all areas that are located in the north. even if the central hope that's a move on is that right? so if you come that, sorry to stay with this because i want to share some new video with our viewers. and then i'm hoping you can flush that out. exclusive video obtained by offices 0 shows is really forces firing and people who are attempting to rescue those who've been injured near the come all had one hospital in northern garza. so this is the
6:24 pm
video one, palestinian who was wounded later died. there are a large number of bodies and wounded on the streets near the hospital, but no one is able to retrieve them. the barely functioning medical facility has been targeted repeatedly in this war. northern gauze, it has been under military siege for more than 60 days. now, it's all right back to you, i know you've seen the video. what more can you tell us about what happened? the circumstances, anything you can tell us about this event? so let, let us just switch them back to ground 0 and go to to at least straight to all of us. what happened? did you spend a minute 3 during the past couple of days, how as conduct to some so which is the precise information a to a tech come out at one hospital in which they have to obtain your things? office had multiple residential buildings and course white suppressed level of destruction and the percentage of the hospital the later the started to alter the
6:25 pm
director of come out of the hospital to evacuate people for the career. let's just that they weren't targeting something else on the ground. looks like talking about those of palestinians have been killed during this precise minutes. we can pain based on the description of the is very military. and this video was captured by one of the medical watchers inside somebody had one hospital because nobody was able to get out from the gate of the hospital because of the remarkable deployments of the smaller office around the area who have continued to shoot through step tele, city is what we're trying to give some sort of key assistance for into people who left leading without proper medical intervention or do you do that very untenable? security condition civilians were trying but old means to rescue that bond who was left on the middle of the rose up finally wrote that was the last for dial solution in order to carry on to food him from the position in which they civilians have come unto i think he's very smart the fires. uh, this is a very at for messic,
6:26 pm

6:27 pm
administration or the presidents, by the end cut on to administer session, the, i'll go in front of the incoming run. of course, there will be some differences in the themes in the prospect and way they are pushing things. but i don't, we didn't see or recognize any disagreement in uh, on the goal itself to and the, and that's basically was very important for us to understand after, especially after the election. because you know, whether we like it or not. it has an impact on the decisions and what's happening on, on that good. on done. that was the contrary. we have seen lots of encouragement from being cut and incoming administration in order to achieve a deal even before the president. a come to the office is still a head on alpha 0. remembering the dead of last sunday's football stampede in guinea, which claimed the lives of dozens of spectators. australia is cricket through his
6:28 pm

6:31 pm
you watching else 0 reminder of our headlines this our in syria opposition side or is advancing from the south. they've reached the country side around the capital, damascus. syrian army says it has not withdrawn from the areas near the capital, and the syrian government has dismissed rumors if the president has left damascus. opposition forces launched an unexpected offensive last week in gaza. is really forces have killed 23 people in a strike on the, on the say around the refugee camp. the attack, talking to the house, women and children are among the dead. lack of basic supplies and for sanitation have made it difficult for medical teams to treat patients in a lovely hospital in northern garza, the hospital has run out of a central medicines and basic equipment. houses here as a boy e mail holiday has visited the emergency department where the situation is
6:32 pm
getting worse. i'm right now inside the emergency department of the script. let me think you around of what's really going on here inside the emergency department, where the situation has been going from bad, from the why the injuries and this in the morning or on the hospital. this is the scene in front of your eyes, as you can see, the hospital if you're a web handle for those injuries, but now it is easier to be under under the web. and this is the which is much more dire. the limited max is to the central mitigation to add with basic supplies. i've made it nearly impossible for doctors to provide adequate treatment towards the video. sometimes doctors have to make the difficult decisions who will receive the treatment in the life in the life of the only one is really
6:33 pm
bad. i'm always on the medical supplies into the, into northern guys. i'm making this wish and doctors are working tirelessly with what literally have as they have their patients life, the emergency department has turned you on a place of recovery. and to us before our goal for survival. as you can see, you're moving guys on how to sign. we're taking you straight to the form that this is the un envoy to celia gear, pettus and speaking of assessment. following very closely the developments in syria . and the situation is changing by the minute. so while i'm addressing you, things that are changing inside how syria i am had quite a few meetings already today, and i really have
6:34 pm
a few more meetings and then also tomorrow. and there may be an opportunity to get back to you also tomorrow. so, but i would just know, read a statement and hopefully we're going to be able to communicate a little bit more. so i have just met the ministers of your own restaurant and talked to you together. and i've also had the consultation to say the representatives on united states from great britain, germany and european union. and i'm from team your extensive consultations. i have called for urgent political talks in geneva to implement security call center solution 2254. i'm pleased to say that the ministers and all i'm talking to unpacking this cold and i'm my
6:35 pm
hope is that if you'd be able to announce a date for this very soon, the need for an orderly, political conversation has never been more urgent. is starting with the urgent formation of inclusive and credible translational arrangements in syria. for this, we need an urgent, serious process. fundamentally different from what has gone on before. this must be the start of a process that leads to the realization of the legitimate aspirations of the suit and people and the restoration of the silver entity, independence and unity. and so the total integrity of syria. i re thread my coal for the escalation, for com, for the avoidance of blood should under protection of civilians in line with
6:36 pm
international humanitarian law. that is my message today i'm associated, i hope to see you again tomorrow. no questions for now. you've been listening to the un, special and void to syria is name is gear patterson. a very short statement there. as he said, things very, moving very rapidly on the ground in syria. but what he decided to share with the public for now is that he has met with a number of the stakeholders, the around russian turkey a being the main ones, but also western powers. the us france, u. k. germany the european union. and he called for a transition, the word he used was a transitional arrangement in syria. so he said there's going to be a meeting in geneva or rather he hopes there will be a meeting in geneva, but they don't have a date yet. and the framework for that is the un security council resolution $2254.00. so that's something to keep in mind and something to discuss. moving forward. seeing the living on the cap, the cabinets has met for
6:37 pm
a special session to discuss reconstructing towns and cities which were damaged during the conflict with israel. a rebuilding and repair budget has been approved. as english robbie reports from tyre, lebanese prime minister in the jeep mccarthy, church of meeting of his cabinet here in tier one of the worst effected cities in the south of the country during the war with israel. the military base for the meeting took place is right across the street. from this the aftermath of it is really missile strike. the completely destroyed a water treatment facility use for drinking water in the city. these are the kinds of infrastructure projects that they need to address. they know it, and they said, accordingly, they've approved a massive new rebuilding repair infrastructure budget for the country. they use the meeting as an opportunity to say they were committed to the role of the lebanese armed forces in taking the reins in the south of the country where his bullet has been such a powerful influence for so long. they say they also remain committed to getting people back into their towns and villages back into their homes. but many people
6:38 pm
here remain displaced in tier their villages are either no go areas where israel still has a presence or they're completely destroyed and there is nowhere to go back to. and these are still concerns for people here who are starting to feel more and more like a cease fire may not hold. and whereas it was hoped that it may lead to a cease fire in the conflict and gaza. the leaders here, the people with this community and tear loving these people are very keenly aware about what's happening in syria violence that threatens the government of president bush are all a side and they are very worried. that's the instability there, could yet lead over and to 11 on and then there are now 2 countries to neighbors 11 on has where instability threatens to continue to bleed over into a webinar. and that is a concern, not just for the national leadership, but for the people living in these bordering areas. same bus route. the old 0 to the head of south korea's ruling party, says president, you. and so if you'll will work with them to seek an orderly pop out of office that comes just hours after failed impeachment vote. so really are on saturday,
