whichever one sent earlier to deny on al jazeera, a diverse range of stories from across the globe. from the perspective of networks journalist on al jazeera, the story is new. prime minister says people need stability and calm is the nation, moves forward off to the full on the bus, out on the side, the road office. and this is obviously, are life from jo. how most of the coming up here in general assembly demands an immediate cease fire and gas and says it continues to support the agents for palestinian refugee ukraine. boost is recruitment drive is beyond me to is the pressure and the war against russia. no regret such because he is president strict

by his decision to declare martial law as it fights to hold onto the tough job. the city is new administration is plunging to secure potential chemical weapons sites with the help of international partners. the prime minister has also promised to get state institutions back up and running opposition and fighters, auto ready dismantling symbols of the past. they've destroyed the tomb of the father of i was did president bush at all us side? very, a car begins our coverage as an end of an era of oppression. syria and the opposition creek. now in charge of much of the country says it wants to signal a new beginning, an usher and change for syrians and emotionally and,

and car down the tomb of as the president, bashar other sites follow their houses with symbolically destroyed. let's just not the one that we so it's burnt and destroyed by the people of his village because he started for them because they hated him. and because he destroyed us, he displaced them and placed the new administration in syria says its main priority is restoring security and stability across the country. searching for those who took part in the torture and killing of the change of prisons and morgan, damascus, syrians wait an agony, hoping for information about loved ones who have been missing for years. the what did, by charlottesville, due to these people, if he had imprisoned them, try them. we wouldn't have said no, but to cut them like that. it's some just serious new administration says it plans to rebuild for the assets finally destroyed for more than 50 years. an exclusive

interview without a 0 serious inter and prime minister said government institutions are already going back to work for that purpose. the board, many former employees will have to face justice and i'm not what i can about not to meet. and so at the, the door remains open for all employees, except for those whose hands stained with blood from military institutions who would load the once employees took up and forward against the syrian people. displacing them, these individuals will be referred to quotes the trial before being allowed to return to their roles. the means to chew sions is that the new administration says it hopes the millions of records for the flight the country during the civil war will return syrians in the middle east and abroad, anxiously wait to see what happens next. for the a car, how to 0 and the times are gone is cautious about the new syrian administration's

commitments to secure chemical weapons sides of saying it will be judged by its actions. what this leader is saying on the ground about chemical weapons. i mean, these are good things we want to we, we welcome this type of rhetoric, but we have, you know, actions have to meet words as well. so we're going to continue to work with the groups that we have relationships with. again, our focus is that these chemical weapons do not fall into the wrong hands. with these early miller trees being carrying as a major error offensive across city. as long as nearly 500 strikes in sunday, many on the capital of damascus, others had to naval facilities for 15 vessels were docked, as all said, is destroyed 80 percent of cities managing capabilities, including buildings, linked to chemical weapons, is running ground forces are also moving deeper into the goal on heights, effectively expanding israel's occupation troops of sinews. what was previously a demilitarized zone. the un says that's a violation of the 1974, this engagement agreement between israel and syria. county. and we spoke to david

the hall. she is a professor at the national defense university, and he says israel's being targeting chemical weapons stockpiles to eliminate any threats to a security in 2013, the french estimator that there were about a 1000 tons of chemical weapons in syria. there was supposed to be un supervisor process that led to the destruction of all chemical weapons. the syrians declared that completed in 2014 but they clearly had the they conducted a chemical attack against the civilians in 2017 or another one in 2018. so there's nothing an open source that indicates how many there are, but i'm pretty sure that these are at least have a good idea of what they're doing and they're working your way down the list. i think they were afraid that some bosher last so i might use chemical weapons against israel. so, um, in the, in the interim, what you've seen is, of course, aside as fallen is relative, also targeted syrian,

the syrian air force which no longer exists and their missile launch facility. so the syrian, the opposition, even if you get a bad actor, you know, like, dash coming out of the central desert, they don't have the ability to deliver chemical weapons. and also there's on certain they've just released kind of how to move a smooth m d with a side where they knew how to keep them from doing certain things. they don't know what the government's going to be like in syria, and they don't want to take a chance of us as brokers at source between 2 groups of fighters in northern syria, the tuckers back to 70 and national army set. it had taken control of minds, beach, my knees and from the city in democratic forces. i just think that has been shown the local hospital or fighters are getting medical help, as well as once being fund underneath that are some of the things are valid reports from men beach, the hours of the kurdish, as the of forces agreed to leave the pollution city of palm beach in the syria

turkish backed as an a fight, as were being treated in the local hospital there. here it's fighters told us that the hospital was also being used as a detention center. our turn of blood can be seen going through this quarter door towards a network of tunnels, according to f in a fight, as there are multiple networks of tunnels that they have found under the city of men. beach through here is the tunnel and they say these toes have continued throughout this city. this prices have gone through the caird it and they say that this actually continues for, if you could let me just in multiple directions. the us back to the fight ended beats of intense fighting between the 2 groups, the dirty back as an a fight. those who are now in control took out the data on a tour of some of the hidden subterranean chambers which daisy was used as a prison. so as this fight is explaining to us when they found this place,

there were no prisoners in fine. but they found places been visited, would have been taken, and we found mazda full settled here. but as you can see, these are quite small cells. and any, every single one of them that we've been either inscriptions on the wall, there's some messages that they've written off or they have relatives for their mothers. some of them driving up to the, to my beach. millions of syrians are celebrating the fall of last time, but the weak economy means many are finding it difficult to make ends meet vegetable, some bread to become a luxury. for some, there's no commerce has been finding out in damascus. we are here and one of the local and traditional and marcus and the city of damascus. and as you can see now shops, the vegetable shots of the grocery stops, jobs are now open in the markets of the city of damascus. however, we've talked to the shop owners as they told us, that even though the prices of gone down a bit,

but the ability for the people to buy their basic necessities to buy the groceries and vegetables are somehow absence after the fall of the assad, redeem and old uh the country uh, as they say is going through a sort of a paralysis of phase. now that they don't have. busy jobs and the jobs oper, oper, today's are now a absolutely absence of a people are a basically don't have any source of income amount at them and how that people could no longer afford to move. we must have access to bread, diesel rice, sugar and t prices. have become very expensive, you don't have enough money that we hope the new government will provide enough support and work hard to reduce this crazy rise in price is the mother basically the if you see what are the people don't have extra cash in the hands and salaries of very long, for example, it can cost your entire salary just to pay the electricity bill and nothing else will be left for the family. people my age can't even afford to get married. they

told us that the people are trying to sustain themselves with the most basic necessities on the thing of importance and an important items from their shop list . and they told us also that the provided the pro but providing bread and electricity and the also the region to health care services is also very challenging with these times. and they told us that the really hope so that the situation will get better in the upcoming a future look or much from damascus city progress era. the view and general assembly has passed a resolution demanding an immediate cease fire in gaza. members held a special emergency session on palestine on wednesday. they also voted in favor of

a motion that supports the work of the u. n. agency for palestinian refugees, condemning a new is really law that binds the organization. go alexandro has more from the u. n. in new york, at an emergency special session of the un general assembly, an over whelming show of support by the majority of the nations of the world. 158 member states of the un voting in favor of a ceasefire and gaza, notably italy and germany 2 countries that have previously abstained phones in favor of draft research and 159 voting to support and defend the un relief and works agency for palestinian refugees known as unreal israel is trying to destroy. while both resolutions are non binding, they send a powerful message. justice must be subbed and improving the t must and israel is continuing with the genocide. nevertheless,

it is continuing to use this tabulation of i'm assuming and see the ends is refundable, all guys are doesn't exist anymore. it is destroyed palestinian instead of facing hunger despair and death. we have studied before, histories, the harshest critic of connections and histories being written as receive here today. the votes here in the general assembly become a little over 2 weeks since the united states blocked a gaza cease fire resolution in the security council. it was the 4th time the united states blocked a guys a ceasefire resolution. that's something that was not lost on many member states. history. phil, remember who failed to act on who's to do on the side of peace. the us again voted against both

a ceasefire and the resolution supporting unrra. both of these resolutions have significant problems. one rewards from us and down place the need to release the hostages. and the other integrates israel without providing a path forward to increasing humanitarian assistance to palestinian civilians. but the u. s. stands almost alone after the vote, ambassadors, upper hand shakes and hugs to the palestinian envoy. a clear victory for palestine in the halls of diplomacy. gabriel's on 2 elders, either at the united nations in new york. meanwhile, m guys, at least 37 palestinians, have been killed since dawn on thursday. these rarely military stock homes in the north getting 22 members of the same family on wednesday. i would have tax them is a bali, a refugee camp for israel has maintained a 2 month seems the area, but that's all from 14 months of war. and gaza stands at more than 44800,

with more than 800000 wounded attacks have also continued in central gaza. is there any air strikes? killed at least 7 palestinians, and the owner said it's refuge account. many children were injured in this drawing, or there's been a shooting attack overnight during the time of age, outline near bethlehem, and the occupied westbank abbas county is released, athens was attacked. a 12 year old boy was killed and 3 of them were injured. is really armies says searching the area for the gun still ahead and order 0 mysterious drone sightings in new york in new jersey are prompting local concerns on christmas salumi in new york. i'll tell you what the pedagogy to say and making the desert bloom, how savvy, or maybe just trying to stop starts on land disappearing. i don't know alarming rate. the

hello. we've got a child's have a shadow to around the goals over the next couple of days. but nothing too much to speak of you can say last the clear skies. maybe just a little chat was just creeping up here in the content. was it go through with this? they type of just around $25.00 degrees celsius says well the more of the web on several web up towards the caucuses from the black sea and the caspian right state in the snow. just slipping a little further south with an ice with northern pa solve or oxy and some of that open areas of iran as well. uh, we have got quite a weather coming back in as we go through uh friday for the visa side, off the mediterranean, and uh maybe one or 2 showers just into uh west composite. all serial northern areas of 11 on south is that it is general drive, a brisk breeze coming through. and that bridge breeze setting in somewhat more as we go on into friday, took the icing. some winfrey showers across the final of the country. there was the

black sea then it's also one of the 2 showers and olden areas of algeria. some went to whether the, just into know the positive morocco as well. much of both africa is dry and quiet. you might just see the old show. have you said that just around the gulf of kidney? meanwhile, as seasonal shelves continue across central africa. we have a psych land making his way to move to jessica of the in october 2023. these raising ministry of intelligence proposed the forcible and permanent transfer of palestinians from because the street, the people in power, those into the history of spinning and displacement. and explores whether clearing palestinians from because the occupied west bank is, is ready to transfer on and just

the the, you want to go to 0. reminder of our top story is this our series you administration says it's willing to work with international organizations to secure potential chemical weapons science. it's also progress to hold accountable anyone involved in torturing and killing the trainings in state prison. they run general assemblies passed a resolution calling for an immediate cease fire in gas members also cost a 2nd resolution expressive support for the you and the agents for palestinian refugees on resolutions are known by and efforts to shape serious political future have begun with his caretaker administration,

now running state affairs, it faces many challenges including uniting country. it's been a war for more than a decade, then a call to report some debt off the bus play. so the struggle that led to the overthrow of bush on the left side. so this is where, but charlotte subs downfall began in march 2011. that as old city, the almighty mosque was the gathering place for protesters demanding an end to autocratic rule. political change has now come, but i know i'm trying to hurry you. we took to the streets to demand freedom were now free. we rebelled against oppression. now we have security and peace. syria now has an interim administration, and it has a lot of work ahead. it's not just about drafting a new constitution and preparing for elections. this is an impoverished society. so with that, you liked to yourselves that syria needs a lot of services,

health education. we have long been marginalized. we hope that we will get out right, some and now new country. so much has been lost during years before the scars of conflict. a reminder of a dark time syria needs the help of the international community to rise again. but that is conditioned on the new authorities ability to come up with a credible, inclusive, and non sectarian governing body. there is hope, but there are also concerns. there are opportunities for syrians to come together to build a state that abides by the rule of law. but there are also risks. there appears to be a new found unity among the opposition forces have long failed to agree on a single vision and whatnot. uh, what is the comedy out there is a joint operations room in damascus, bringing together among others commanders from the north and south. we want to assure all people and the international community we are all in agreement. it's

been one of the worlds bloodiest conflicts and recent history. people here blame us said for factory and destroying a nation, who i remember seeing i and we need a differentiation between the muslim and a christian. i swear i'm 67 years old and i never knew the religion of the neighbors. it was the regime that created divisions between people and minorities. hundreds of thousands of people were killed in the struggle for a new syria. many hope it's a new break that will bury the divisions of the past. what's at stake is the future of millions. one of them is 8 year old. how much does that include there else you as a to the southern syria? european union is in the middle of a fierce political debate about the future of its refugees from syria. austria has already announced funds to port sevien, migraines, germany reckoning from time greece suspended all assign them applications from syria and people. the german 4 ministers calling for the return of refugees to

syria, to be coordinated across the e. u. and we'll see you at student. i don't do that haven't verified slips because of syrian saw protection worldwide, including here in germany, but also in their millions to neighboring countries. many of those who solve that protection can imagine to return to their home country. at the same time, the situation is so unclear that it's currently impossible to judge whether there will be another flow of refugees from down region or whether river turn to syria is actually possible. that is why a close coordination with neighboring countries or partners in europe and certainly with the un is the central, is going resistance in ukraine to a new law to boost military conscription that requires all night and age between 25 and 60 to register with an online database and potentially be caught up to fight your training and forces under pressure as the phase of rushes greater mine power and military resources are said. big reports from odessa dodging the draft

footage like this of men, apparently being confronted by military conscription offices or trying to escape them is being posted across social media and ukraine. with russian forces making gains in the front lines of the east pressure is going to find most soldiers to fight them the to the victor, not his real name is in height and he attempted to drive medical stuff to get an exemption from having to join the armed forces, but if that was exposed during the government come down on the practice, boys me to give you. 2 of my friends who are drafted are that on the months of their being conscripted to, one of my friends was deceived by the commanders. they told him he would be a mechanic and the driver or they sent him to the front line without even any protective equipment. he was injured and they still ordered him to go back to the

front lines. and what he is now in housing was mainly kimberly want to know the president is lugging is the density, has admitted that ukrainian force is a short of troops. many soldiers have been fighting since the start of the war in february 2022 with no time off. louis, save the seeing an increase of instances of physical force being used to detain men and pressed them into service. i may, but i can barely think useful. i've witness cases of illegal tension. so it conscription offices attempts to legally detain a colleague of mine during this attempt. they broke his call over and there was a case against those who tried to send them to my home phone numbers of reports of men being picked up off the street and bundled defense appear to be increasing. far to say these practices on the common you see what we have to do? we don't use force, we don't twist anyone's arms. we don't force them into minivans. we're against

these mason. i'm personally against the company. i believe that you trainings are a free people. it's been nearly 3 years since the russian invasion and the initial enthusiasm to 7 ukraine has dissipated. a service, attitudes of life on the front line have become more common known. and then you preserve, which is i know if i die, no one will take care of my family and the conditions are not good. if the conditions were different, i would surface assist your thoughts. the many men in odessa are afraid to venture out. yes, please. and the conscription offices set up checkpoints in the city. when you speak to people, there's a sense of 5th man on the family that are afraid that they may get picked up a sense of to fight. it was very little training for us. i suggested that ukraine low risk conscription, age 25 to 18. the society is already under the strain of all a sudden and off moment to flight. the prospect many want to avoid a side vague. i just did us with desa ukraine,

subcommittee as presidents vote to fight any bid to impeach of joseph shoulders defended his short lived martial law decrees last week as an act of government administration. he denies obligations he's committed to treason. it brings the opposition for pushing the country into a crisis, a high end to town. mean guess all who is in the midst of creating national paralysis and disorderly constitution in south korea. over the past 2 and a half years, large opposition parties had been trying to not acknowledge and bring down a nationally elected president. they did not stop calling for my resignation and impeachment. they did not accept the results of the presidential election on it. raul mcbride has moved from sol a legacy comparative address to the nation from am baffled president june took you all defending his actions by imposing martial law last week and also giving a lengthy explanation of why he did so. he has spoken before now making vague

references about attractions in south korea. that is sympathetic to north korea that was preventing him from governing properly. but this time he really outlined exactly why he said he carried out this martial lo declaration, saying that it was to defend the electoral system. it seems of south korea claiming that north korea was trying to hack into the computers of the election. want to talk to the national election committee, such as a question of national security. he and the now disgraced enrollment defense fitness stuff had what types of plans to try to protect that system. they weren't getting cooperation from the election commission and that they have to they said take this action to impose marshall, he is also outlines and repeated a lot of the previous accusations. but the opposition policies were preventing him from governing, vowing that he would fight any attempts to impeach him until he says the very last

moments. meanwhile, the governing party had the people's people's power party. the leader of that party has stated that it will now be the policy of his party to support impeachment until now the ruling party april, though they have differences with president you'd have stood by him last saturday in the impeachment vote, they boy accosted that vote. preventing the opposition parties from passing the impeachment motion, but this does not bode well. this withdrawal of support as president union space is a 2nd impeachment vote. this coming saturday, rob mcbride, al jazeera, so in the us, people in new york, new jersey, they're getting bought into about mysterious drones, the department of defense. it says it doesn't believe that from a foreign power, but it doesn't have an explanation. present. salumi has more. the more drones in the sky, it's become almost a nightly occurrence in the skies over new jersey. there are literally dozens of

drowned fire spotted by residents and shared on social media mysterious drones as large as a car would at 1st seemed a local anomaly. now capturing the attention of top military officials at this time, we have no evidence that these activities are coming from a foreign entity or the work of an adversary. we're going to continue to monitor what is happening, but um, you know, at no point where our installations threatened when this activity was occurring, dependent on spokes person denying reports, they were launched by around here since there is not any truth to that. there is no ronnie and ship off the coast of the united states and there's no so called mothership launching drones towards the united states or the f b i the f b i is leading the investigation. you're telling me we don't know what the hell these drones are in new jersey are. is that correct? that's right. since opening a tip line more than $3000.00 sidings have been found in the sightings began in new

jersey last month about the same time. drones were spotted around for us air bases in the united kingdom. now they're being reported here in new york and pennsylvania as well. in new jersey, local police have launched their own drugs in an attempt to get more information while local mirrors have called for a stronger state response. right now we just want then if i would, this is what concerns us mostly is that at this point, nobody seeing any of these units taking off or landing despite reassurances they're concerned that recivore is military bases. even president elect donald trump sped minster, golf club and home have been under surveillance or worst. the next one will come in the next one and next one. but so far there are more questions than answers. kristin salumi al jazeera new york drive. it's an intensive land use or devastating huge parts of the globe talks about detoxification,
