send food and jersey. oh. yeah, sharper below, has moved for most go on rushes, involvements and assets movement. that was to say, when president bush on the side of his family members have arrived at most of the rational somewhere he's gone to the police, the asylum assembled allegedly about 2 inches biography plain from a russian base in the top here. the see we're in a position as opposed to the guarantees the security over from issue basis in natasha and talked to as well as diploma technicians in the country. so while the opposition is series fully a transitional source, he rushes requested emergency consultations with the july security council, the situation see where we should take place. on monday, december, the 9th. the rational source is considered necessary to resume negotiations on a supplements in syria under the one supervision. now, as life has been removed from this, you are an embassy in moscow, and russia has the best old policies to manage should peaceful transitional power

using political means. curious as well as see where it was. russia's thomas, i want to release the pressure to have a naval base and talk to and the patient's, my media laptops here in exchange for breakfast clips. so under the tree support, i'm actually mostly use it's naval base and tom sees would trust. sorry, it's masters to previous to the non and central african republic. according to to the statement by before and ministry, the ministry personnel at diversity bases and see where our honda. but the reason i see where the trip to the safety and there is no money at the base, is either, you know, all of the, i'll just be wrapped. most of the united states has held before the present of a shuttle assets regime and called for him to be held accountable. president j finding says washington will work with certain groups to establish a transition box once as possible. risks ahead. long last shot or james phone. this regime brutalized and tortured and killed. literally hundreds of

thousands of innocent series of fathers is a fundamental lack of justice. some moment of historic opportunity for long suffering people, sir, to build a better future for the proud country is also going to risk and assert. as were all turn to the question of what comes next. united states will work with our partners and stakeholders in syria. talk them sees an opportunity to manage the risk to meanwhile us some of the tree forces of car adults strikes on his lubbock state. targets in syria central come on says it has thousands of ice will targets including comes and operatives, general my cool corolla ones, the country will continue its mission to defeat the group and still fit from taking advantage of the current situation. right, well for more on this let's go to highs each or castro who's my 1st and washing

sent d. c. we had a some of what do binds and how to say hi to what more was he saying and not statement. right, well you heard him call the fall of a sort of fundamental act of justice, but he also highlighted that this is an opportunity of this, the moment of those opportunity and risk. one of those risks are too serious neighbors which the us, which funding has of the you as well support as a threat or to arise from within syria, those words, referencing a possible resurgence of iso and that is a main concern of the u. s. a. there $900.00 us service members in syria, they will remain on that mission to try to counter any i so and by then said that he would also, that the us would also support the transition into a democratic syria is what the us would like to see but all of us, of course, must be taken with a grain of salt, given that by them has just about

a month left in the white house before his successor. donald trump will then take office and trump has so far been very hands off with this issue. he has said he wants the us to stay out of syria. i'm sure it's social today. he talked more about what this may be an impact for russia for putting but as far as what the us is, commitment is to the syrian people or any sorts of promises of humanitarian 8th at 5 and has promised it would be up to trump to see whether or not he actually follows through. and of course, a little of this, as the central combined also has more to say, can you update us on that? right in this, it goes right to the heart of the us, concerned about an eyesore resurgence in this power vacuum on today is the day that our side left syria, the us made its message very clear by targeting 75 i sold targets, central finance, as these were i saw camps and offer it is in a targeted air strikes,

damage assessments are still ongoing. there's no word of any civilian casualties according to the us military. but again, the messages loud and clear and said specifically from general carrillo the central command commander to those parties in syria. now that have to determine what happens next. he says, all organizations in syria should know that the us will hold them accountable. if they partner or support i so in any way and again, $900.00 us service members remain in the country and are still dedicated to that mission of countering i. so. okay, thank you very much, heidi. so that's on site. well, the syrian civil war was spots in 2011 off the anti government protests levels and to close version change what followed was a lovely crack down on position health areas. stephanie deco looks back on serious long road to regime change. how it all began, almost 14 years ago, peaceful protests against the shuttle. i said to me in serious southern city,

delta vine and government crackdown institute and protest spread across the country. the 2nd phase would change and the anti government movement weapons flowed in. and the more organized arms, insurgency took shape. countries took sides and funded various different groups. in 2012, the borrower's will move to a level, dividing the city into the government, west, and revel health east. the same year, the group dropped with almost at all. now the re branded high at the feet ocean and the one that has led the fight from the old way to damascus, announced that it had become a kite as syria franchise. while the iranian backed hezbollah also entered the syrian conflict on the side of the government, 2013, impossible to forget the syrian governments chemical weapons attack on eastern utah

. it shocked the world. and the rise of the stomach state a very walk and an event racing across north eastern syria, under all leading killings, kidnappings and horror in its wake. the formal announcement of the creation of the slum estate across syria and iraq came in 2014. it imposes proof of rule on nearly 8000000 people. here later with damascus, hanging by a thread, russia entered the folds, unleashing intense and devastating airstrikes. crucial in undoing revel. gains the americans together with a courtesy fled 0 in democratic forces were s t s took on iceland and both syria and iraq to kia, to come to more visible role in 2016. deploying along with the board with syria and launching attacks on iso. but also, what was an is anchor as main concern, the kurdish y p g, which now holds largest waves of territory along to kias border. over the next

years, positions became entrenched and the guns so much fun, mostly silent. millions of syrians displaced outside their country and internally to then the region started to undergo momentous change following israel on october, the 7th and the start of the war on gauze of the day off to receipts why it was declared 11 on the world when pushed by rebel groups from their strong hold and it began city after cities fell. i didn't less than 2 weeks. the rule of the shadow aside decades, cuz the aside dynasty was over. definitely decor, which is 0. so it can hoist the largest number of syrian refugees, many sort safety barrels to favor the civil war in 2011. the full of president, bashar to us as regime is a turning point, a sponsoring you debate about the future of refugees and whether they can return home. and i'm concealed reports from has high nutrikids bordeaux with syria.

they chanted freedom outside the syrian consulate and assemble syrians into kia had just learned a news cruise and push. the wireless out had been now said in damascus was now in the hands of the opposition sliders. sealants poured into the squares of his stumble and cities across to kit, celebrating the long awaited victory they had dreamed of for more than a decade. today is a day of joy. i don't know how to express this feeling. there was fear inside us. now there's no more fear we are knowing. and you'll say, speaking at the donor form and guitar, the circus for in this, or how confidence representing the country hosting, the largest number of syrian refugees that millions of display series can now return to their country. and he called for unity. it is time to unite and

reconstruct the country. today we call on all actors in and outside the region to act with prudence and come and to refrain from steps desktop for the beast of allies, the region as the territorial integrity and unity of syria must be preserved system to one to, to, into 3 more than 160000 syrians living in to get, have returned to serial on a voluntary basis. we are in a neighbor who's in outside were syrians for salt refuge after the civil war in 2011. having and during the years of conflict of the station of the 2023 earthquake many years say they're willing to go back home. or they will so worried about the future after the full of a set up drop on from it that has lived in turkey for 11 years. it has a reason for return, the killing joelyn lose. my father has been in jail in syria for 13 years. we don't

know his crime or if he's even alive, his prison has been stormed in. all the inmates were let go. syria improves us. we may return. i don't know, but also i was raised in turkey, syria is still my home. so what's the thought originally from a level runs a business in this neighborhood is moved by the capture of the capital damascus. he says he's determined to go no. yeah, hold on. we will let turn soon may be in weeks. the key was come to us and we are great. but we want to go back. city is unstable and officers must we establish old syrian opposition may have asked for the salt, but for to kid the presence of curtis wipers you fighters in northeast and syria poses an immediate threat to its territory. your integrity to fuel by us. support for potential on i mean the future of syria will not depend on it. so young generation and see you in reference, you see, even took you will want to have

a part in that scene up to solar l to 0, outside on to, to syria border. still ahead on now does they're shifting political landscape and them at least we'll take a look at how the phone of assigns and times it runs. and so it's in the regions and as damascus forced opposition forces, thousands of prisoners are released from prison across the 16th. the is going to be significant rain in the red center of australia, all the shares really forecast to be from west australia across to southern queens and the staying in the her for the science is warming up in victoria. it's nice and warm in adelaide and personal property golf into the middle fifties quite happily in the next day or so. so that will be some flooding around. and they may snare,

suppose it edges towards brisbin and he's not far away from sydney. that's the news . even and surprisingly, the most the rate is going to be on the west coast as brought the warmer on the east coast. so christ church is looking quite nice. no file is rather disappointing on monday, particularly if you're in the oakland or wait day for you. answer right, indonesia, you can pick up some pretty big from the stove, mostly is going to be east java lace in days. probably born here as well as the central and southern philippines, clint symbolize. yes, this is seasonal, right? the less of it. now despite the on the show breeze, which is the system took over this time the for the now. and that of course is also part of assistance bringing code. i don't know if he's in china. some snow is already folded in her car there. it'll be little less of it. i think that later on monday or on tuesday, if you share was a likely in how does she like training? i was way across towards shanghai for disappointing mid week. the

author a decade of honoring individuals and institutions working and translation between arabic and faulty. all the world languages. shay come odd award for translation and international understanding is hosting its 10 towards serve. on the 10th of december 2024 in doha guitar, shea come on the award for translation and international understanding from the arabic language to mankind. the welcome back here watching out. is there a reminder about some stories this out?

the chart assets 24 year old of the syria is over position fights and took over the west coast and all the major cities. and i have not cuss you has been imposed in the capsule as the opposition begins to work on forming a transitional aspect on his family have left syria and they own now in most cases where they've been granted this, find them supports, is it the permanent has secure to deal with the serial position to ensure the safety refresh. facebook you as president jury biden has helped the phone of the regime and says outside must be held accountable things kind of us says it has kind of astride some ice will sites in syria. stephen soonest, as a professor of politics at the university of san francisco, he's also the founding chair, the university's middle eastern studies and explains what happens next to serious opposition. the fire keys, i believe, of the new government, however, it forms is

a solidifying control over territories that they are currently operate in. trying to restore a government institutions of free, the prisoners help repatriate exiles and displace peoples. i don't think the high priority will be necessarily controlling every meter of syrian territory, though certainly that would be their goal in the long term. i think that the united states, of course, wilkinson can continue to assert it's an interest primarily which is a trying to cross the remnants of dash. well, certainly you will have uh, any number of actors. so that will try to influence of what the government looks like. a turkey obviously has their interest of the saudis, the radians others. but i think that what this, what the collapse of the machine has shown is that it's not outside the forces that

lead to a sides downfall. but the syrian people and my strong impression is that for good or for l, the syrians will try to form a government that reflects what they believe is their best interest. now obviously, there are many different factions there, like any country. it is a broad gap of political opinion and when all opposition was suppressed, all these years of these voices were not uh, not, not heard in the halls of government. now they're gonna try to assert to their, um, you know, their interest, the iran farm is assessed says it was surprising that the steering army couldn't count. so the opposition and foxes, in serious speaking to rainy and me, the bus at all. she said to her own was a way of developments inside syria, but says this government was never authorized to help the regime to start him on that system. how are you? it's a lot of our friends and the intelligence and security systems are both iran and syria. were fully aware of ongoing movements in and around it live in the old, relevant information had been transferred to the syrian government and the syrian

army, or they themselves, that information which we also received from them along with photos and other details of what was surprising was the inability of the syrian army to account of these moves and the speed of developments, powell, i'm one of them all fall in hom bus. our interaction with the serial position depends on the behavior. what policy will they adopts towards the run? what policy will they have to watch? c, as in syria, what will be the distance between them and israel? the distance between them and terrace groups, all of this, we will consider it with the full of a shot and a sub serious crisis ally. iran will now be forced to reconsider its position in the middle east, so her on has called for syrians to decide the country's future. it says without for an intervention to sit. jabari has more in the long standing relationship between both countries. the outside regime in syria has been errands consistent allies since the 1979 revolution. as such, tyrone has seen the survival of the syrian government as being crucial to its interests. since syria provides a vital thoroughfare to hezbollah, 11 altima iran,

so revolutionary guard has described syria as their owns 35th province. that recent events which led to the downfall of the outside regime show a remarkable shift. in this longstanding relationship, syria was once you're on the closest air of ally, but now it appears everything tyrone had built and fought to preserve for 40 years to make it its main foothold in the air of world has been lost. last may, the late or radian president abraham ray, you see made a rare visit to damascus during which he reiterate to its r. ron's continuing support for us on promises were made to help rebuild the country after 13 years of civil war. but now the axis of resistance that iran has formed with its allies 11 on the palestinian territories, syria, iraq, again, and has been weakened, making israel, the dominant force in the region. iran to other p ally,

his beloved has been battered after an intense period of fighting with israel and 11 on syria. was a crucial passage way for a wrong to supply hezbollah with money, weapons, and trading. political, diplomatic and logistical support that is no longer the case. the iran deployed commanders and troops to syria in 2012. the start of the anti government uprising, helping to defeat both the opponents of the outside regime. and these lumnick state group, according to officials into her on the costs, was hard with thousands of members of the revolutionary guard killed a new, the $50000000000.00 spent to ensure assets, survival error owns for administer, a boss out of she who is traveled to damascus baghdad and doha, for consultations on syria. and although he at 1st struck, the fire towed, he later set the short list that's page would be left to god's will. he was one of the last officials to see a side during his final days and power. yet another concern for iran was israel's

threat to, to attack any mobilization of arabian troops in syria to flights by private, radiant airline on route to damascus. were turned around this past week after warnings by israel, that it would shoot them down if they entered steering airspace according to arrange an ad is really official. israel said the flights were transferring weapons as well on the side regime had been described as their rounds, right? and left wings with both now having been clipped. it's not clear how to iran will deal with the new reality of which we can position in the region door. so jabari alpha 0 there is political on territory. a landscape has been transformed by the leader of hired to heidi this month. and shudder is also known as of them. how much is yolande as well as his finances, barbara, and go for looks at his aims and what's it cause me for the future of syria? he's unmatched as the man leading the charge of 5 t as in syria, but nicholas noon,

a bunch of them are hammered. alto lani is no stranger to the position the. he's the leader of hyatt target a shot, became prominent as in 2016 when he announced the re branding of his group. i'm a jump out on the stress and it spits from al qaeda the other. his go to create what he said was an add to a shame front in syria, a phone in damascus. in 1982, i'm at a loss track. gilani took a suit and then one he says, references family history of expulsion from the now pied girl and heights after the creation of israel in 2003 up to the us. inflation of the rock gilani left syria. joining alcala in iraq, which left to her subsequent interest, and in 2011, to return to syria as the fond of on this row, to take part in the revolution against president bush, allison. and most recently,

been trying to present a more moderate view of the revolution to take back syria from decades of assets. brit for rule. the a below that evolution that he's began entering the city of how much to send it ties up, the wound that has to be left in city of for 40 years as good. that it might be that it to be a conk listed in which there is no event, but for such an offensive by opposition spice. as in syria, quote, much of the world by surprise. and giovanni is now trying to send the message to allies of the syrian government that this time, things are different. the good news in the same way it all can prime minister them how much she asked with any distance his country late keep from the water between it on the end. that agent we attempt to distance it ok from entering the new furnace. so what's happening in syria fuel to and how to do the wisdom off because

now under the control of a position 5 tests and talk to more than a decade of conflict. the well to be look into upper mohammed l giovanni to see what type of transition it brings to syria. barbara, and out to sarah. sarah, no, position fighters have released prisoners since covering the capitol to moscow sends, announcing the full of the assad government opposition fights to say the freed all of the to and just need to change on the a subs rules ourselves on the which reports for the they run is free man for the 1st time in years escaping the confines of serious prisons. the across serious scenes of liberation as thousands emerged from detention centers, leaving facilities that have been described as human slaughter, houses address sites. becky, as long rule that many activists have called

a kingdom of sidelines they are among thousands of individuals, arrested for opposing president assad during and since the 2011 uprising embassy was just the number, i have been missing my family, things i'm dead, they don't know anything about me, there are many people who have been missing for many years. they were prisoners with me who were 60 and 70 years old. the mass release follows us with defense, that by opposition groups will cease control of government, strong coals level, hama, and homes, ultimately capturing damascus and, and the assaults rule for years. the un documented systematic torture and abuse in more than $100.00 detention centers. among them said i a prison. the most notorious then of the am this, the international says thousands were killed there in the mess. hangings and secret executions. survivors report overcrowded cells in widespread torture with pipes and

electric shocks. many died from preventable medical conditions and their families never learned their face. i know he was up too much. we are in the middle of damascus. i swear to god. our execution was supposed to be today just half an hour ago. 54 of us were going to be excused today for kansas families who have waited years for use that they're missing loved ones. they are released, springs, bold hope and anguish with the present gates. finally, open sea road will have to come to terms with some of the darkest secrets of their machines, brutality. and with the ones that mean, never hill axles. i much out is there a number of syrians who were imprisoned inventory, a sudden i a prison in damascus. remain on, accounted for during the shorter license rule. many people who oppose the government ended up in underground cells known as the red wing. but since i saw it's full, many of those who disappeared and was sent to the votes.
