good, advantage terrace extremes, etc. but we'll be talking and we already talked talking to others about the way it has back of the white house national security specs. when jerome coby insisted that in keeping with lincoln's message to regional pals to stay out of the syrian power vacuum, the us will stick to it stated mission of fighting. i. so us military presence in the, in syria is predominantly in the east and is designed solely to help us with the counter isis missions. and we're working with this or, and democratic forces to that. and that's why they're there. and that's the only reason that they're, they're the us of the system. it's only which is for an inclusive serial of transition to an accountable and representative government that poses no threat to its neighbors. she, every time, see alger 0. it is already sold as authorizing in syria and territory in the buses

or near the golden heights to protect civilians. that's according to a statement by prime minister benjamin netanyahu. he says the collapse of assets, government created a vacuum on the border. he also confirmed his troops have taken control of what he calls strategic sites in syria. the syrian observatory for human rights says, is there any soldiers have seized form, a syrian army positions on mountain time, and at 2800 meters, it's the highest peak and syria and just 40 kilometers from the capitol. and is there any presence that puts damascus within range of its artillery? it also enables israel to monitor, has bloss strongholds in east and lebanon, and conduct surveillance in syria. israel has carried out hundreds of ass drives across syria since sunday. the united nations has condemned israel's actions. the secretary general spokesman told alex 0 is gabriel and his own go there,

a violation of serious territorial integrity and sovereignty for you and says one point. 1000000 people are newly displaced across syria. since opposition forces began their offensive in late november to our, the side regime, the u. n says they've delivered food assistance to about 700000 people, but is real as continued a tax on syria or making the situation dangerous. the secretary general is deeply concerned by the resend, an extensive violations of serious sovereignty and territorial integrity. the secretary journalist, particularly concerned over the hundreds of is really airstrikes on several locations in syria. stressing the need the urgent need to de escalate violence on all fronts. throughout the country, israel is claiming that the reason they're continuing this strikes on syria is to prevent weapons getting in the wrong hands. is that any sort of justification for

their continued attacks on syria? look, a lot of countries give justification for violating the sovereignty of others. what is clear is that we are concerned about these repeated violations of a serious sovereignty, sort of serious territorial integrity. at this point, syria needs support from its neighbors in order to move towards a, a form of governance that is inclusive, that is democratic, that protects the rights of, of minorities. it is also imperative that those in control in syria ensure that all of all weapons and everything comes under control and is not open to loading or disappearance. and to be clear, the secretary general's message to israel right now is stop the attacks on syria. that's correct. and to other countries that may also be using this opportunity. the situation along that is real syria border remains vala tile as well as is really

forces continue to operate beyond the buffer zone that is monitored by the un disengagement observer force known as and off. that to is something that you and officials are concerned and watching closely. and the security council received a closed door briefing about that late on thursday gabriel's onto. i'll just see it at united nations in new york. stephen, as soon as he's a professor of politics at the university of san francisco and found him chapman of its middle eastern studies program, he says, is rose taking advantage of serious vulnerability. one can argue about whether his rules should bomb weapons, facilities that could get into the wrong hands as a se, but the aggressive ground or invasion has no logic to it whatsoever. no strategic ration. now, i mean, this is clearly taking advantage of the fact that syria is not in

a position to defend themselves in more with the most the, they're in the navy and air force destroyed over the leadership and an influx with the government trying to desperately all things together the seem to be the perfect opportunity for further expansion is already there are um, uh tweets from is really is looking forward to building a ski resort on mount herman. and yeah, and, and just uh, and, and talking about the holding onto this area for an extended period. i mean, they clearly feel they can get away with this, especially since the united states has defied the united nations security council and others, by recognizing israel's illegal acts, ation of the territory they already held and with and even more strident pro israel administration developed to come in perhaps they feel they can get away with expanding even further. i saw many members of tens of thousands of missing syrians, a searching for their relatives believe to have been detained in prisons run by the

asset administration. some have been looking through id cards, got to the cost of them as a, as a is near the capital damascus. as i also served as a detention center since 2011, about 158000 people have been forced to be disappeared or still in prison. that's according to estimates by the syrian network for human rights. the newest member of based group, i have 3 missing people, but i didn't find anything at all. we just want a hint of where they are one percent. and now they're saying they've released the prisoners, but we haven't seen anything. well, i went to sudden i a prison 3 or 4 times in the end we lost hope and came here. and they told us their presence on the ground, but no one is showing us where they are. if someone had a device to show where they might be, there are people on the ground and no one can get out. and god said the political security bronze prison in damascus, also known as i'll fire when a torres for abusing the detainees out of there as corresponding oh my,

i'll who ronnie was previously imprisoned. that himself, he recounted his experience in solitary confinement and spoke to other former detainees. so why are you, hey, with your family now? i'm with my family so they can see where i was health and torture. despite not committing any crime or doing anything against the law and the security forces arrested me while i was walking in the street and brought me here for you to beat me and tortured me at all for i stayed in the cell number 7. 0 dear. they used to call my number, not my name was my number was 16 and someone would show you number 16 because the amount was over not like the hold up and above in full. then i would come up, make this from such a small opening near the end of the door. the 1st thing i would receive a slap in my face. i was only allowed to look at the ground

in the interrogation room. i stayed in this position for one or 2 hours, so they start questioning me. if i move a little bit, the stuff beating, move it up, my see anything because of the blindfold a box that they might to solve out of this one the after one or 2 or even sometimes 3 hours. they asked me to stay in this for deposition, to start investigation of somebody to smoke. they asked what my full name and my family, and why i was broke there. they said a police and dotius insult scroll the time. oh my god, this was the plastic rod which the investigator used to beat me with this one is number 14 where i was held for 40 days and the

to that could come up here. i've seen the worst moments of my entire life years. and i used to always come to this whole just a brief update and of course my neighbor in the other cell was always in pain. and it's difficult way of breathing used to hurt me and used to break my heart. i'm sure so many people have been here in this solitary confinement. so the an overnight is there any striking central gods that has killed at least $33.00 palestinians, including several children, another 50 people were injured? the seas, some of the themes inside deluxe, a hospital. when medical stuff assessed,

people as possible from the rubble of multi story residential blocks and on the se, rucker if you do come on south today, politicians in georgia, a set to hold a presidential election body members of the public wouldn't be fighting, and there's only one candidates. the election is expected to father on girl position support as they have staged. and think of them in practice every night for more than 2 weeks to meet. remember that and go has moved from the capital. bbc of george's government is preparing to elect a new president, even as protest as out demanding a re run of parliamentary elections held in october. and this time, the public won't be voting. following changes to the constitution and 2017 candidates ought to be elected by a committee of 300 government officials, politicians and regional authorities. and this committee is controlled by the governing jordan dream party, something that's the angry people to say the last election was rigged with the help of russia. presidential should be elected, advise the people in the,

to elected by colleagues. so, you know, it's a, it's not the way that he's my pleasure too much because he's elected by non legitimate government. and now there's some at the bottom. i mean, we are inside the quote you out of the georgia in parliament. it's quite the fortress here, behind these layers of reinforced gates and barricades. this is where the 10s of thousands of protesters gather every night. and the opposition policies have refused to take their seats in these full since the october 26th election. because there was such a significant difference between the official results, 38 percent exit polls, which gave them over 50 percent. so they're not taking part in this presidential election. and there's only one candidates. it's his name is mikhail covey. less really, a foreman striker for george's national football team also briefly played in the premier league in the 19 ninety's. he's been a politician for the past day. he is not shying away from a broil and pushing forward a controversial for an agents low in may. that lead to talks with you on georgia

joining the block being frozen. the country is richest man and honorary chairman of the georgia dream party. that's, you know, you've honestly picked him before the post a lot using some of the on the bottom of the fair and it's patriotism and loyalty to principles are the qualities that distinctly defined. mikhail kevin, actually he represents the finest embodiment of the george and man opposition leaders. see kevin was really in a different light. the only thing she has on hand just type football. tea has no experience and no education and nothing that connects into i don't know to diplomacy or international relations and likely opposition. outgoing. president solomon's that obviously has called georgia as government illegitimate. she said that she will not leave her post when have time expires at the end of the month and has called for the west to impose sanctions against the government. as georgia, dream titans,

it's great on the country's political system. opposition. policy say they will continue supporting is that obviously as the legitimate president, even if she's forced into exile to meet you met but then go out to 0. been easy. the us has announced an additional half a $1000000000.00 in military aid for ukraine. secretary of state on to me, blink and says the package includes new types of munitions rocketing launches on drones. it comes days off to the defense department announced a separate aid package with $1000000000.00. since russia invaded in 2022, washington has provided key with more than $62000000000.00 in ministry assistance. outgoing us president joe biden has commuted the sentences of nearly 1500 people is the biggest single day act of clemency in modern us. history is also a pause and $39.00 americans convicted of non violent crimes. the move comes just a week after up more controversial pods and by the president which was handed out

to his son. hunter biden was facing sentencing of to being convicted of tax and gun charges. a miss loan is a full mess. federal prosecutor with expertise and government ethics. she says it's common practice of presidents to issue pardons. near the end of that time, there was a lot of pressure on president biden after pardoning hunter bite into pardon and use his clemency powers for other people. and he did that and probably would have done it any way. because presidents very typically start issuing a lot of partners towards the end of their terms and around the holiday season. and in there's a lot of questions about obviously the 100 biden hardens, especially how brought it was they've pardon hunter for not just the specific things you've been convicted of by for anything he might have done in a 10 year period. and president biden did that. it seems largely because uh president trump has threatened to keep investigating hunter by it and then keep

going after him and 100 brighton is known to be a more fragile person. you've had addiction problems. president biden already has also lost 2 other children in the, in a 2 at early ages. and that has been very stressful for him as it would be for any parent. and i think he's been very worried about hunter. so all things considered any that's why he part, pardon hunter, now. uh, president trump has added some of the republicans have use that as a reason to pardon the people from january 6th. but it was really a matter of apples and oranges trumpet. talked about pardoning those people really since they started being convicted, he's always felt that they were unfairly treated in his interview with time. was he and he said he would be pardoning them. i think not just within the 1st hour, but maybe even in the 1st 9 minutes to. and donald trump has been named time magazines positive the yes. so the 2nd time he 1st received the title in 2016 when

he was 1st elected to the white house. as the announcement was made, trump was at the new york stock exchange to bring the opening. but since 1927 time magazine has recognized a pass and only meant the quote for better or less has done the most influence, the events of the around $3000.00 microns, a rushing to arrive to the united states before the integration of president elect trunk. most of them are from venezuela, hundreds hate and cuba. they settle from the southern mexican bull with just a few of the top, a tula, they making the journey despite trumps promise of deportations and to crack down on immigration. many of the modern say they were forced to leave the countries because of political upheaval and economic hardship. the, i ask republican president, donald trump, to think with his heart because he also has assemblies. we are only going in search of work to show him who we've and it's where it is our hardworking people. just

look up and say, i want to not be biased. i never thought i would leave my country. i never had the american dream, but i was forced by the situation at this moment because of the home during government. our basic food is the most expensive in central america. you can't survive anymore. the recalls for bangladesh energy deal to be scrapped. it was agreed to between indian business john and the, a donnie group as a government, a form of bangladesh. the prime minister shake casino that she fled to new delhi alta being ousted by a popular protest movement in august. tom baton, audrey has moved from dhaka, a fine with the same, puts nearly 10 percent off. it's electricity from india, most of it is supplied by the mountain. national identity group under 25 year purchase agreement, signed in 2017. but some believe bangladesh been ripped off, the agreement is unfair. on a crib,

it did not protect the interest of bangladesh. so i want the government to renegotiate the town suite fair, a quote, and that oppose the initial interest of bundle this, if other, any does not agree to it. let's cancel their agreement as a whole. to protect the interest of the energy costs are rising and growing demand due to the expanding economy is hard and consumers there are frequent power cuts despite paying high terrace. what happens to the electricity we're importing from india? where does it go? that's my question to the government. the india band with there's power data was signed in 2017 by prime minister check casino, who was off the during mess demonstration, early of this year. but bundle dish has current energy advisor phase. the arrangement was unnecessary as the country can make its power needs domestically. and the high cost of important energy is draining the government's resources. this part of you that we have a backyard. have we hired

a data for example i then he says at 50 percent higher than the average consumer debt is paid by people to as a result of this new project, an on any bob. and also this of the project that with preclude, without the competition, we have this huge subsidy required to pay and doing defend demand is high in bangladesh with many resenting new bill is decision to provide check custody. now, with a safe haven, the face of the and go through my down the, the indian building here at the head of identity group is facing fraud charges in the us. adding to the controversy. public pressure for an investigation is mounting . lots of the bottom or the shy goddaughter the committee to review the contract under which i, donnie supplies, power.
