prisoners after years of detention under a said they now walk free and people swarms the presidential palace in west or damascus, an image that was only thinkable just a few days ago. after taking over se television opposition forces have this message for the syrian people. out of the city of damascus has been liberated the tyrant, the shar alyssa has been toppled. all the prisoners have been released from the prison of damascus. we wished that all our fighters and citizens preserve and maintain the property of the state of syria. long live syria. on sunday, syria's prime minister address the nation from his home, urging the opposition to ensure an orderly transition on number 3. and then we're extending our hands even to the opposition who are ready, reach out to us and gave us assurances they will not cause any harm to any citizen

who belongs to the cereal of ours. to dislike the historic series of events, the world is now left wondering what's next for the syrian people from this includes and just ego over. so sort of joins us now from the syrian captain, damascus, and resolution can just to get through the latest attending of this morning is reality now sitting in of the celebrations that we've seen over the last 24 hours of the. well, no, we are, you know, maybe you square in the central of damascus. and here you can see that the position fighters are in charge over here from time to time. you see it in the celebrated 3 shootings in the air. this region on one hand is the center weights. we bought the steel times as well because they're saying that they have taken the full control of the city center and some of these diffusions. but still,

they are keeping getting the control of some of the solutions or facilities at the power steering off the city itself. so now here which i see that this squared actually was one of the main squares you've ever lost. so sleepy institutions are just spread around. now here over there, you can see that that is the city and ready to be. uh it is the government's on tv over there. and then right next to that you see that the smoke source, the rise in that because that has been on these really try over there. they have see that place just yesterday and still the smoke is rising yesterday and through the night is rep has conducted over 180 strikes a pose and around damascus. and they saying that the reason that there was a size is to destroy some of the weapon, the production of houses, or to prevent the weapon. reason i'm a nation to that, to pay,

to get into the hands of the or position fight this year. now. so that's why that's still the most of the there, and the 5 is, are not intervening, trying to extinguish it because they do love, the weather is secure. yeah, for not that is the iconic moment monument off of the image williams. the cool with that is cool. this sort of off the mass, cuz i'm just right over there, which i see that is the headquarter. that is this ministry. how it costs are off the syrian government. let's say the former student government, when be a stop day and it was really over the country that has been simply the central decision making of the company to the last 15 years of the civil war. but now that is also under the control of the opposition. now you can see that still there are some set of read 3 shootings in the air when he a celebrated issue with his i've asked to death to the supposed to be,

get to the fight. those here, and they say, well those who are shooting in the air on either the city national army or the position that's coming from the south but not a h t as so if someone is shooting, this means that there's not a surprise there is just saying that we need an orderly transition likely yesterday when the position of the so to over the city that has do some things and them is twice as something know they um, for the civic and they to the cultural now dominant for me. they are the ones that are now in charge and i was talking to them to say the know of the could lead in the most cuz they will have to talk to us and look back. yeah. for them come on through the through the along side the lebanese border. they are now preparing to initiate the defensive. on the a side, sort of the government's loss stronghold at the cost of $70.00. i was off syria,

but, but the rest of all, i don't know if you can still hear me a bit too. can you just talk us through what you've seen since you arrived? i understand that you came through yesterday morning. giselle was off to the full of the regime. can you just to cut through exactly what you saw or, and who you were able to speak to in that time? well, we got through the north 10 province of it live and all the way down to the city of hama and then phones, and then directly to the mass. cuz on our way, the scenes that i have seen, the cities that have been taken by the, by the physician, just recently, most of them were destroyed, were simply, i'm the man the, the pounds, like i'm out of a new, a new a mind like she's like wants and she's like when, when the that the city know position has used to tell me to weapons in 2013. and

also we have seen in some of the outskirts of how much the other places. so see me . they were zabel zones. there were no people leaving there, but you have seen tons of car was, is off people. i will say even maybe more people are now coming down further south going to the lands boring to see day and homes. and what happened to that, it is that was a lot of people from the north to the south. and while people were marching toward the south, how seen most amount of illusion that's left by the, by the city of the gene when the, when it's falls, i'm talking about the power was done of the moving honda is a function of jeremy is times all kinds of times you're talking about the artillery systems that were sticking, including the drugs and how you cop those as well. so this is quite huge. there is

no, it says this here is not perfectly orderly, although as of this moment is, has not been shown as well. so now we can see that, so you're going to be screening your calls and off an area for a diagnosis fee that has moved this stage here for you for years. and now it is gone. and the fighters that have been fighting, i guess, is individually for 15 years now in charge of the major cities for, for, for, for this country we are at the presidential palace in damascus, where somebody has ruled over syria for becky. this is the political gate off the palace, so somebody has been receiving the ip guess the state dignitaries through this gate . and now this palace of the present bishop sad or for syria and leaving the

company and going to moscow. and often the position 5 is taken over the capital. they have rushed into this palace and now it is fully under the control. i was just the, just in the protocol whole and seen the fights are still being here. now they do not want to be shown on the camera due to the, the security concerns. now you can see that there are still of the broken glasses over here that happen when they have stormed into the palace on 7th or off of december. but on the other hand, we see that there is hardly measures in the mass cuz the security forces of the position is on everywhere. there are several check points and of course, the power to cause the electricity, the lights are turned off. and it's not just because of the lack of the resources, but they're seeing that as well as being some all scores or 4 of the captive, damascus. and due to the security reasons, they are keeping the, the, the,

the lice off. so this is the protocol whole, you can see that the rad carpet over here. so for decades, the said the, the thought somebody had been receiving the, uh, the ip. yes, we have an the here. yes it is. one of the menus actually have just seen it is from 2009 when the philippines president with the mass, cuz this is the menu for, for, for, for, for the dinner. well, this is how this was happening. or 7th of december the, the, the leader of the issue. yes, level position that has taken over the control of the mask is mohammed drum. and it has was to damascus. and that, that was the historic moment he directly went to may of most. and you also delivered us the page and calling on to city mc, and that is a historic moment and not only for syria, but for the whole region. indeed, when you are coming to the mass, because you're feeling that this is a storage moment. you've seen that syrians, i know, leaving in

a different reality. there is no pressure unless there is no opposite. i said, there is no assad, somebody who has ruled over syria for 54 years, but the rather the position fights is coming from all across the country. this is said that i'll just go to the masks, to withdrawing but shallow sobs rolled tens of thousands of people who oppose the government were in prison, and some forcibly disappeared. at the end, atoria said, now a prison in damascus. minnie would take into underground cells known as the red wing . people are taking by flashlight and order to free and nights held on the ground. a specialized teams from the white helmets organization has now arrived at cigna in search of detainees who might be held in hidden sellers. the

base with the scenes and the prisoners inmates were allowed to move free. prison isn't moved from over crowded cells, some an shock up the use of imprisonment, excels on the which has more to the they run is free man for the 1st time in years escaping the confines of serious prisoners. the across syria scenes of liberation as thousands emerge from detention centers, leaving facilities that have been described as human slaughter houses address thoughts. 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 obviously 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 goals, level hama, and homes, ultimately capture and damascus. and the assaults rule. for years, the un documented systematic torture and abuse in more than 100 detention centers among them sitting by 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 both 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 0. i'm. i'll show greg was arrested for protesting when he was 15 years old. he says he experienced brute tell us he trying to survive in prison for 3 years. a well under torture, i was forced to get the false confessions that was that i killed officers and have weapons in ice fight to the us enough tied to and these ram. but that's, you know, false confessions you've given it to you because you want to paint this stuff. however, when i met the judge for around 3 to 4 seconds, with my eyes blindfolded and my hands tied behind my back and not seeing the judge, he asked me, what's your name? how many have you killed by said none. and he said,

leave the room then i was sentenced execution. luckily he i was smuggled on makes occasion day because i had the most wonderful mother you could ask for a name in the story of the system doesn't exist. it's an intelligent services that run every corner of the country. there is no such thing as justice. if the judge doesn't like your hair color to get something, see the execution. you're talking about the system. when the machine has to give a 1000000 people what women who are raved and they give birth to children in so under the ground that the kids live for a few years without seeing the sun or the light or a tree or a bird. there is no such thing as just as when it comes to that to the regime of the show side. so when i go to, when they took me to the judge, i didn't expect anything else. i didn't expect him to hear my story. he gave me 34 seconds to say my name and say the word. no. and he didn't even care about that, because under my false confession, under torture, i was forced to say that i killed and list number of officers, even though it's

a tiny little boy by shallow side is now in the russian capital must go where he has been ground to the side and by russian authorities, especially, was this the one shall i of us on, during serious civil boy and intervene militarily to keep them in power. of more than this, we joined now by lexi murphy is who is an associate professor of national security in strategic studies at kirsten university. he joins us from buffington in australia. thank you very much for being with us here on al jazeera visual. as we mentioned, to solving this family been given to solomon moscow. can you just explain what value he still holds to russia now, if any? well, i don't, i don't think it's a bother. i'm there and hand, and then the value of the is the last. the, the, the political way, the strategic way. and i think it's more of the symbolism of, of how for them effectively a research to, to those who are personally loyalty and clearly homicide was you must rage in the

us know, loyalty, the, we didn't over many years include in support, getting russians invasion on the brand, so this is a signal to high, the a rush was blind, some brands in the region in the gulf region and abroad, the middle east, the as well as the never great names yet, that as long as you remain loyal, we're not going to a bad then you'll win on going to do what the americans doing something in some places we will low cost to you. pause pushed back to them and so it's, it's part of the rushes damage control, which obviously more school have to now engage due on the drum edge. it doesn't around in syria, you, before we get to that, can you just give us an idea of how far you think person will actually go to press, protect, decide. i mean, do you think that his head could face any sort of justice at all? a while i think it would be the best of all. the 1st question would be whether, you know, you would remain for a monthly in russia or where the been ground and asylum in russia easily is

a couple. it's almost like in transit, they're not solve my me right. like a, it's elsewhere so that, that needs to be done in the secondly, it would very much out for negotiations because at this point in time i don't see that we're getting, we'll give him up last week, may become part of, he is a good bargain in agreement with the new governments in syria, which would then allow russia to remain uh, physically on, on the ground. so at the end of the day of russia, we'll look up the, it's interesting on the side. okay. as you say, yeah, there are plenty of russian strategic gas, it's uh, still within syria. what happens now to those russian vices in military installations? a look. i mean, i don't think the russians want to leave the menu fine. so they invested several 1000000000 rubles in modernize and leasing for us back to the it's not the mile, just having boots on the ground in serious about our projection. it's about airplanes and not just across the middle east,

but also in to every it goes. so russia will hold onto this facility as far as long as it can uh, its a they, they still have a lease agreement um, which was signed back in 2017, which would allow russia to, to control those bases for 49 years, for as long as there is no propaganda in place of not moscow's disagreement. there's likely to all the russians as far as i understand, i know insults with different parts of she are in a position, obviously that would be a force as we should. they wouldn't be prepared to negotiate. but i think that will, they will try to hold on to those bases. then i'm going to be in there how ready to leaving it there. and so if anything i can expect some reinforcements to be sent to these also because i put you on hold on and wants to see these being can see that as a form of collegiate via doors. bridget, they feed them, then come back to us. i'm abrupt withdraw a little from of gauge is found by contingent when your wife,

we just hearing that uh, the opposition has full control control of a many of the provinces. now, along the coast, the armed forces of the opposition do not intend to storm any of the russian military bases. and they are still up writing normally at this stage. just in regards to negotiations, i mean will most go, try and work alongside jolanda. now, in the of the opposition forces and will, will there be an negotiation of such how do you say, applying out a look, i think the russians will have no choice by to negotiate. i think they realize they, they probably made a strategic mistake as a result combined in the come on the freshman forces in see where it has been sec the days before and, and, and it hasn't been replaced. the russians have about $7000.00 troops on, on, on the ground. so even if the position will try to storm and that would be a different story to come back to try to take on the elements of the set them aside

regime. but we also need to remember that the russians have been working with sherry and security services, or where they see right in military of quite some time. and i think they, if they choose, they can form elements of resistance and which i don't think they would probably want to do it because that's what makes them to take sides and not necessarily a wing and side. but they will be prepared to work with a position clearly a that's already been taken place and the reference also talking to principal sponsor is of see are in a position for assessment that was uh, the more give off rushman for him. you know, the serial number of meet you in, in, in the, with representatives of casa and, and, and cherokee and the uranium so as well. so i think the restaurants will as engage as many representatives of the very diagnosis. i have a 4 song positions that was once united by adult plan. this i bridge him, but now we'll stop scandal by just board for its own interest. plus the russians

wants to keep their presence. they are the control because one of the more gifts for them to move in english area of the best place was to reduce terrorism raised in central asia in the pharma so, and it's based edmond russia itself. and for, i'm going to proceed the whole of a terrorist so that they've been quite successful about that. just on that. i mean, can you just give us an idea of some context around just how significant syria is for rusher and how important it is for them to remain with a significant presence there while he disagree, if it goes, i'll give you the number of reasons best of all, it's the politics on pipeline for as long as russia controls of the, as part of syria. it's showing me it has on, off by hand in, in bland, the g. apologies on pipelines across the many of the range in as well as a, as well as in europe we've, on the amount of the situation is the, from that a rush of naval presence and bar. those allow it to apply. but the actual pressure

on this way it's canal in times of prices. and it's a form of our projection across the middle east and into every gap. so there is too much for us to, to lose your brush, or it will have to withdraw from syria that will lose massive investments. they will also be blame the cards of forgiven. i see around that. so the soviet union and, and to russia on the side. so i think they will try to negotiate or bring it into the negotiations with a new regime and to your account for russia to lose presence here in union. it, they have the invoice across the middle east and the effort bill will be got sale. so it's no no option for most people. okay. fascinating. just say how this will plays out. thank you so much for your time and your insight into this. thank you. thank good to kia, how is the largest number of 3 and refugees, many sort of safety there off the thing. the civil war in 2011, the full of president bushel sounds. regime is

a turning point that has spawn to renew debate about the future of refugees and with us. i can return hon. send them clearly. proponents from hot time near to key is bored with syria, as they chanted freedom outside to see you in concert and assemble syrians into a que i had just learned a news prison push. the wireless out had been ousted 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 no one and you'll say, speaking at the donor form and cuts are the circus for in this or how confident representing the country hosting, the largest number of syrian refugees set. 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 does go further. the stop lies the region as the territorial integrity and unity of syria must be preserved. system to one to, to, into 3 more than 100. 60000 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 please 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,

killing to 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 strong and 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 phone or originally from a level runs a business in this neighborhood. 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 officials must re establish order. the serial position 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 color, speak to, nor does she joins us live now from a boat across in between jordan and there yet no festival. and since you've been speaking to refugees there, how is a feeling about potentially returning to syria? well, time over the past few days we've seen the trickle. we've seen the joy of those refugees today. of instead of of, of cars, we've seen buses, buses full of syrians returning to syria despite all the questions that remain. in fact, i saw a few who, you know, they couldn't find any transport into the border crossing. so they asked to be let in on foot. people are eager to return, especially those who are originally from their height,

which is right across the board. they have family there, they just want to go back to syria. now that the fear of the outside there's him, has gone and the new understanding didn't yahoo was cancelled a 50 year old agreement with syria during his visit to the occupied golden hinds. can you just explain exactly what the agreement and what that agreement is and, and how significant it is that these cancel this of the yeah, i mean, this, this was very unilateral on the part of israel, the, this engagement agreement came after the 1974 war and essentially what it did is it the mark, the temporary borders as real still occupies, like you said, part of the syrian goal on heights. but then there was this buffer zone that the un administered between the is really blue line. and the syrian line of the border

and it that in that agreement has basically enabled a state of, you know, no conflict or no war, but no, no peace to persist between the 2 countries. and it explains why there wasn't a lot of outright attacks between the 2 states. now that this agreement is gone, canceled unilaterally by israel shortly, or almost immediately after the announcement is ready to launch the series of air strikes against is the, the, the bases, the military bases. the air force base is the intelligence headquarters and research for to the facilities of the syrian army of the side, the regime. and essentially what, what the is really site is saying is that they want to strip syria. and whatever formation political formation takes control of it. of the assets that the outside, the regime had just in case whoever takes control of syria is not favorable to the

is really side from it is really perspective. so israel taking those steps in advance in just in case that things turn don't turn, not the way they want them to. and it is really part of the, is really pattern of behavior in the region, taking matters into their own hands, unilaterally deciding what works and doesn't work for them. regardless the sovereign rights of a neighboring states and date. thank you so much in or explaining all of that for us know a day for us at a border crossing between jordan and syria, or it will still a hit hit ronelle just there. the areas around this time have seen some of the most intense fighting eastern crane and russian forces are getting closer and closer, but the ukrainians are struggling, struggling with months. however, i munition,

the storm dial that major with installments, cause damage to the way since gotten back to the south of france with guests over a 150. could it be surprised still with us. it's not quite suspicious that it was, and it's, it's boned a new lo, somewhere around about north of a to a. so it was quite a big change to the weather threatened to europe, but the biggest is probably still going to be found in the mediterranean, from snow falling in the parent. these and some positively to some of the storms of persistent writing west eventually and down the coast of the drastic. this is all the way from albania, down to was greece. now there's obviously an awful lot more klatera and it's going to feel rather cold or from any as well. not so much in, for example, sicily, or it's silly, but coming down to the bit, genevas max is about for the fact the heart of the know if your p m find is disappointing, the gray with that east to the breeze. so it came across new germany. some snow is going to fall in places like australia, but the concentration of really heavy falls is going to be further south with the system slightly following

a problem that are in the central mediterranean. that some of that is going to affect our jerry into needs in the form of cheryl's and strong winds. otherwise, no af, after remains dry. the, how much in the seasonal wind isn't that strong, but it is enough to carry dust all the way towards the west. and beyond of the one 3rd of all, the food for you is wasted with tens of thousands of food outlets installed in south korea has been transformed from west to offend, to is to build a leader. and for the recycling i, the reporting on how new technology is making this possible. and can you, i mean the form of incentives, what do you have? do you think just for the labor? no, it's depends on a new place, a phrase,

or just the, [000:00:00;00] the the you're watching, you'll just hear a reminder about top stories. the salad risk is still trying to free people from sidney prison, near damascus,

where use of torture and abuse of being expose specialized chains from the wide helmets organization are at the prison in search of detainees who might be held in hidden sellers. posada is now in the russian capital must go where he has been ground to the side and by rational pharmacies. prussia was a storage ally of assad's during the serious civil war a and it's a beans militarily, to keep them in power and opposition. forces in syria taking control of state institutions like captioning, kevin of damascus on sunday, ending for shotwell sounds 24 year room. the 5 isn't now pushing towards the stronghold and the tide kia and talk to the united sides has held the full of prison shiloh solves regime and cold for him to be held accountable. president joe biden says, washington bulwark with syrian groups to establish

a transition. but wound of possible risks ahead. long last shot or james fall. this regime brutalized and tortured and killed. literally hundreds of thousands of innocent series of fathers is a fundamental lack of justice to moment of historic opportunity. long suffering people with syria to build a better future for the proud country. it's also going to risk and assert, as we're all turn as 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 as well. meanwhile, the us as a, carry down thousands of the strikes on the iso targets in syria. the us central come on says the strong, so aimed at ensuring iceland does not take advantage of the full of all sides regime. how does your castro has more from washington dc? president joe biden addressed the situation from the white house saying that this

was a moment of both opportunity and risk in syria. he said that the us is at harton, that opposition leaders are saying the right words at this moment promising a future government that is inclusive, that this perhaps even water it however, the us will be watching to see if those words turn into action and bite in saying that if this is a peaceful transfer of power led by the syrian people, eventually us could pledge humanitarian aid to rebuild the country. but of course, this is all taken with a grain of salt, because biden is leading office in just over a months time. an incoming president elect donald trump, has said that he wants the us to be hands off of syria. but in the meantime, you are secretary of state antony blinking, promising that the us would stand in support of the searing people saying that they finally have a reason for hope. knew well, as we're hearing these words of encouragement,

we're also seeing acts of military strength from the us, of course, or 900 us troops stationed in syria. and on the same day that assad fled the country, the u. s. air force launched as a targeted air strikes against 75 targets linked to ice. so this is according to a statement from us central command. these were iso camps and offered as was damage assessments underway. no reports of civilian casualties involved and the timing of the strikes on the same day that aside felt cannot be more stark. with the message directly given as a warning to the new a leaders potential leaders of syria. at coming as a statement from the sent cut commander sent com, commander michael carrillo saying, all organizations in syria should know that we the us will hold them accountable if they partner or support i. so in any way maintaining my i soul and containing its influence is

a top priority for the us reporting from washington. heidi to castro al jazeera well, samuel romani joins us. he's a military and geo political analyst. he's also an associated fellow at the royal united services institute. thank you very much for being here with us. uh, once again, samuel, the series, obviously a country very much in influx right now. but just from a military point of view, how would a transition would come in? we're going to say assad's forces basically hand over to the opposition groups. and do you think that is t as can so transition into a more traditional military force? is that something that we could see happening in the next few dies while in terms of the position of a science for us as to the us government. it's important to keep in mind that the 3 and prime minister of a side was appointed in september mohammed guys, the al jolie is going to be playing a key role in the transition process. and that was quite surprising because just 24 hours before us as fall. he was talking about how this war against us as a war and

a battle for serious national identity. and now suddenly he's peer heading part of the transition. so logical alleys that conversion is somewhat sincere and he is a aligning with them then that could help bring some of the syrian government assets into the falls and the new government. but the issue don't just have to worry about that. they also have to worry about integrating with other opposition groups in particular, the 3 national army because it was just in 2020 q at the end of a range. you and they're actually fatal clashes between the 3 national army and the issue as far as that. so those groups have a long history of under cutting each other. a long history of mistrust, as can be pretty hard to organize them into a. so he says add new. yeah, that's yeah, i mean, in july and he's tried to convince the international community over a number of years of its commitment to motivation and intolerance. that's really going to be tested now as it tries to government. and so that there's some sort of governance, will there be any major clashes? do you see it with, with like, with the kurdish forces that we've seen before? do you, do you see that continuing body?

that's a great question. i think the probably will be some classes with the courage horses . they're still going to come, will come along. we saw them clashing and tell her a fight in other areas, even as they were launching this lightning fast defensive against the side. and the staff is obviously very wary of having any kind of experience of being under the rule of a group that seem to be an ally of turkey because of their experience with operation piece, spring and operation olive branch in 20192018 when cards are displaced to create a safe zone by the turkish forces. so that mistrust is extremely deep, even deeper than the mistress that i mentioned between the different levels actions . so getting occurs in line is going to be hard. the hers might actually push for the syrian constitution, some kind of federalism, some kind of autonomy, that was something that was previously discussed and some of the a san, if he's presences. and maybe that's something that could come up in a new constitutional arrangement. in this, obviously, russia has been given a solemn there with his family. how is this going to play out? i mean,

obviously they want to keep the military installations and keep the power base there. will they be able to or? well, i mean, the russians obviously are in the state of panic right now because they didn't see this coming. in fact, in the days leading up to the defensive part of the rebels, they were not fortifying forces in the laboratory live. they're actually sending observation posts, the golan heights all the way in the south. so they were completely hot off guard. and now they're panicking because the last, the tardies base would be crippling for their fuel political power projection in both mediterranean and africa. because the reason applied facility for the african quarter forces there. so they're going to try to do whatever they can strike a deal with the july, the, and the opposition. and that might mean that aside becomes of guardianship. and besides presence and rush, it becomes to toxic and is useless to the russians. they may try to found them off somewhere else. some of the families gone to the united arab emirates, of course, or on the other ally. so maybe as how it is going to be in moscow just as a holding glass and that he's gonna find it on their home. if that it becomes to

toxic to have them there. but yet, the other development that we're seeing is the serial that israel and demanding a withdrawal from series golden heights. i mean, is there a fear that this power vacuum could lead to more lots of syrian land with, with, as well going and, and basically taking the golden hans while these are at least half day taking the size of interactions, the goal and heights immediately after the fall of a side in the, you know, and as people have said, and this is going to be a temporary measure, it's not meant to be a long term occupation. so we have to wait and see what happens. but yes, obviously that concern is very much there, especially given the times that donald trump is coming in as president and trump was the person who back in 2019 recognizes really sovereignty over the goal and has to begin with. and so that could uh, allow israel to keep that land with little pressure coming from its biggest ally. so i think that there is, i'm concerned about that. okay, thank you so much similar stimuli. we really appreciate you taking us through so

many developments that we've seen over the last few hours, samuel, remind me of it for us. thank you very much. the. the to 1000 down is rouse bombing campaign continues 9 people, including women and children, were killed in an attack on a residential home in the east of alber. i used refugee can elsewhere, 10 pallets, indians were killed in northern rasa when they were trying to buy flour. food is scarce and palestinians continue to risk their lives to feed themselves and their families in the north of this trip. ellison and have no access to food was on medicine. many continue to die of mel nutrition, a sophomore and all of this. honey mike, mood isn't the algola and central gaza honey. another daily morning there in the strip. can you just talk us through these?

like this just rarely strikes yes, tom and just the agony. keep on folding here in the hospital work, surviving family members of showed up at the early hour of this morning to collect the bodies from the hospital who arrived as was denied and starting from early hours of last night as will out past midnight. and the early hours of this morning, more of the bodies at some point, the more that the hospital was hot bodies that appointed was know enough room for more bodies to be stacked inside. they were digging inside the emergency department here, but 9 people to from one family. i displaced family in a bridge, refugee com, hello. targeted the early our last find in their residential homes. again, women and children are making up the vast majority of casualties being attack, and this is an indication of what we have been seeing so far for the past 4

months. deliberate attack directed at this place, families in some sort of a collective punishment. not only they've been displaced in a traumatized, but now they are being chased and targeted by the deadly ears price almost within the span of this a couple hours. a massacre in the, the northern part of it did it didn't people from 2 or 3 families from the northern part of robot for do are also displays it on last week of newness wins. do this particular area and run back to collect the flower because flower inverted crisis, the deepening for the past few weeks and has a really exacerbated the human and 3 in crisis across these things on the area and the southern part of this trip. and what seems to be a for loans or a price is giving the ongoing of traction on the flow of human and $3.80 from the crossing. old crossing are not smooth. the open the, they're always restrictions on the entry of humanitarian. either some one,

we've done it through a period of time where there was no trucks being allowed inside the central area or the southern part of the street. people are going hungry and being at the, on the top of the fact that you're being displayed and a traumatized as the work continues in, not a part of this trip. the situations remain very difficult, particularly in jeff valia vicinity of come out on the one hospital where for, for almost 65 days now. no proper access to water, food and medical supplies and other necessarily survival. the item and resources needed for people survey. 9 either in the northern part of this trip on top of that, the only it's in my operation on hospice that have gone out of service. now no oxygen supplies do, do, do the i do you and the, the on keeping the danger, vater, also know water available for the remaining injuries. and patients in the hospital,

the streets are the vicinity of come out of the hospitals have turned into a desolate the graveyards right now with many of the bodies is scattered and the street from the ongoing heavy artillery is and the diapers with no one has the ability to remove these body, most of the time people get shot and it bleed to death inside the vestry. honey, as always, thank you so much for giving us a some sort of sense of what it is like the uh in cause a honey mike move for us and to. ah, paula was still a heads here on that one to 0. south korea's justice ministry takes action against president june following his attempt to impose marshall more the,

the,

the, [000:00:00;00] the south korea's presidency. and so keel has been banned from foreign travel officer, an order from the chief of the corruption investigation office. for high ranking officials, the goal for the travel band was made during a pile of entry herring after an investigation into treason charges began related to use short lived declaration of martial law last week, where you just come joins us for more on this and sullen can you just explain, 1st of all, how significant this travel band would be the right. it is quite significant up for any head of state to be banned from leaving

the country to adjust his ministry. just very recently approving that request from the corruption investigation office to van if president used to ago from leaving the country. he's becoming a part of a growing list of top of specials linked to that bush. the marshall decree last week, including his ex defense minister and his ex interior administer as well. police and prosecutors also conducting parallel investigations into charges of trees, and these are very serious charges that was to proceed his presidential immunity. now president hughes office has essentially cleared his public duties since last week's martial law. it's have a so the country essentially has been in this diplomatic freeze if you will. for

example, us defense secretary lloyd austin is in the reason on a farewell tour. he's in japan currently and was to visit so, but he has scrapped that those plans as well as oppose heed up. police have also not ruled out emergency emergency arrest president. you talk a, according to local reports, i think i named officials and they are considering relevant conditions which likely refer to a flight risk or likelihood of damaging evidence in use. i mean, how much longer can prison unit actually hold on to power because it seems from the outside at least that his position is untenable almost at this point in time. that is the big question right now. tom in south korea, when can be really, uh, people, power party, try to maintain that. so this is steve, if you will, of,

of a 2 person leadership, the leader of the people power party and as a prime minister that they just recently announced and are probably still in the process of figuring out who will do what. but we did hear from the defense ministry and a regular briefing this morning when asked who is the commander in chief at this point? and they did say it is the president as far as they're concerned, because that would a live with the law. but the pressure is still very much on and the president did in his last apology address, say that he would be the future of his office with the a ruling party. so it remains to be seen how all of that moving pieces, all of the moving parts can come to some sort of an agreement for right now. the opposite your block, preparing for an impeachment, so it's hard to come saturday. okay, thank you so much units for the units come for us in. so the type ones military is

on high alert house to china, st. warships around the time when east coast. the move is indicate the china is beginning a new round of military drills in the area. taiwan is ca, sconces. 7 chinese ships have been carrying out grey's own harassments since early on monday and have launched conduct readiness drill was in response to the actions by shooting has held 2 rounds of war games around taiwan this year. so russian forces launched and offensive to capture the strategic town of pope cross in eastern you cried in spring this year as of yet they have failed to capture it. so i thought have been making advances and the donate screeds and bringing them closer to the town. despite heavy losses, russia is unlikely to a band and it's offensive as it bake reports from across an eastern new crime. ties on the trucks because the mind, russian forces are determined to have jump across,

you'll see the minus sign converging on the time from the sides in 3 different directions. the result is the town is almost empty. there's no electricity. it's been shelled and drones talking vehicles for this couple. it's not too much they've decided to sleep. we there are a lot of explosions. it's an altima regional happening. drones are flying both kind of cause you ones. i'm to those that drop explosives and i'll come down with a lesson offensive happening towards the town and there's a lot of shedding. it puts our lives in danger. we stayed until the very last moment, but the front line isn't 6 kilometers as they officially claim. it's not further than 3 hours. there's no running water. these people break the freezing cold and the threat of being bumped to collect it through the 1st or just their shelling every day. i hear at least 20 explosions a day. people are worried about over the last 2 weeks,

the situation has gotten significantly worse with more powerful explosions. further inside the tent, the streets are deserted. only those that come up the floor refused to leave, remain that they safely deliveries cannot enter the town because of the showing and the shops have run out of cash. so what shall we do now? we will run out of cash. we have bank cards, but what are we supposed to do with them? without electricity is the the sometime these choose to stay with most, a sheltering from the fighting to pay grands remain empty and the pets roam the streets. ukraine forces are rushing to reinforce different lines. the areas around this time have seen some of the most intense fighting in eastern ukraine and russian forces are getting closer and closer,

but the ukrainians are struggling. the struggling with month power amunition, and it's not show how long that can hold off. russian forces a vague set up across the street, ukraine who as well from the so this is how i'll be back in just a moment with much more of the dies you stay with us. the in 1958 charles to go made a famous speech in algeria. but take a don't hold back the tide about jerry and independence in front of the companies in africa and the pacific. in the final episode of the series, which is their explorers, how the bits of fights for the french empire still resonates today. imagine tis french, the colonization on outages era, manipulated by those in power. and selection is unique and we've seen anything like

before, no pressure, they were instrumental in helping the president when the election, driven by still interested play as fast with their after non profits for people susceptible to government control. this type, again, is designed to inflame and defense the way that the story is being told, not right, and it's not accurate from social networks to legacy media. the listening post exposes the forces behind the headlight on which is era sundown lazara. he's a member of a community that sets aside 4600000 acres of land to restore this oil, while also making money from kabul and treating the managers of this project claim a increasing scores of copland by managing the grazing hutton's, of hearts of livestock, animals come to controls, areas like this, the heart is know each other, they take rack because of those will come from outside the north and arrange lines . trust runs

a program and is projected stream of $15000000.00 tons of carbon from the environment, and that will be traded for cash west 30. yes, that's worth about $300000000.00. his heart is, are some of the most marginalized people in kenya. they say they don't understand the politics around public trading. they just want a better life for their families. the goals for unity and syria opt opposition forces take damascus and top of the south regime, the ultimate cry, this is l, just their life from. so coming out the
