5:07 am
really military says it is targeting strategic military sites. israel has hit syria with more than 500 airstrikes since the us under his name was toppled last week. the turkish government has offered to provide military training for the new syrian administration. if such, help is required. defense minister, yes, you are good. there says the new leadership should be given an opportunity to prove itself. he also said there was no sign of a complete russian withdrawal from syria thus far. an exclusive footage obtained by all da 0 shows large crowds of former syrian regime soldiers gathering outside the how about police headquarters there trying to begin the process of settling their legal and military status, habits and heard reports. former soldiers of bush auto as his army search for answers a week after his regime was toppled. a video obtained exclusively by adjust the shows hundreds of men gathering outside the have a police headquarters seeking information about what's next for them. vision
5:08 am
problem, hold on. uh, i can task the free so you know, i, me have set us free. i was a soldier and effective. now i have registered the adjustment bureau as a step to restore our normal way of life. all those ex military men outside and willing to return the welcome. there is nothing a tool, nothing but safety and security on us for many of them had already surrendered. after the new syrian administration announced its plans to help reintegrate soldiers from s as army. it's now issuing temporary identification cards to those seeking clarification on their status. the new administration has said that any person who has not committed a war crime is welcome to rejoining society. but those accused of committing torture will be prosecuted and brought to justice. waged yes. will be trying to do is to try and accommodate former regime members who don't have blood on the hands whilst at the same time making sure that they can put loyalists in that people whom
5:09 am
they can trust. it is a delicate balance. after all, positions lenders capture damascus in a lightning offensive. last sunday, thousands of former syrian army soldiers crossed into neighboring idle, surrendering and giving up their weapons. would many still remain in the country looking to the new administration for answers on what role bill play in the new syria and the how does that quote? just so you don't, the, israel's government is approved the plan to expand settlements in the occupied goal on heights. it comes a week after the army invaded the un buffer zone between the territory and the southern syria. prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the government acted in light of the new front facing syria and wants to double the israeli population on the goal on heights. but says israel's policy towards syria is still undetermined. and the only information soon we have no interest in confronting syria. we will determine is williams policy towards so yeah,
5:10 am
according to the emotional reality on the ground, i remind you of thoughts for decades. city i was an active and a mistake to israel. it attacked us again and again, it's allows us to attack us from its territory. it's allowed to run through, i'm says will last through. star 3. chatham clements is a former diplomat and former pentagon official. you joins us from washington, dc. adam, thanks for being with us. since the us it was name was pop up last week. israel has hit syria with more than 500 airstrikes. the latest ones were near the coastal city of talk to us. and israel says it's targeting strategic military sites and insist the threats posed by syria remain significant. what from your vantage point is israel's ultimate intention here and how long do you think this is going to go on? or thank you mohammed. i think we don't have, of course, access to the intelligence that the israelites are using to base their strikes off of. we also don't know what others in the us intelligence community, for example, know about these. but i would right now speculate to think that we looked in the
5:11 am
lens of iran and what's been going on for decades through syria and do has the law and the context slightly of the conflict. it's ongoing, there has been in the past that at least has each fire and loving on a is fruitful. but also i think, is, will probably would want to try to target these, these infiltration lines that has below and iran of use for many decades. and so from that vantage point, i think it's hard to see when these would stop. i think that also that we have to look at a few different categories of these weapons. i think one, you can look at chemical weapons that have been used in the past, the solar strategic missile research and development sites. i think those would be the obvious ones that would also be in the interest of the region. and not only that, it's vital interest, and then the 3rd ones as well. we don't know about some of these farmers gene,
5:12 am
a conventional weapon stocks. and so those are ones where i begin to question, i think it gets a little gray as far as i would question, as far as what real spread, some of those oral conventional weapons stores can be the israel and final, i'd say is, well, we don't know as well, how well are going to have a uh, any other groups in the ground, not just h d s, or protecting, or trying to invest some of these sites being rated. and the munition are things being used elsewhere in syria. adam, let me also ask you about the fact that as we mentioned just a minute ago, israel's government has approved a plan to expand settlements in the occupied goal on heights. the announcement of this plan comes a week after the army innovated the un buffer zone between the territory and southern syria. how much might this inflame things going forward? what kind of impact do you think it will have? well i think that all sides are trying to understand each other's motors and
5:13 am
objectives, aside from what is said in the public space. and i think that given the context of the war that in gaza and in between as a law and israel's, i think that for the is really defense, establish whether they would want to try to prevent some type of october 7th attack . and what's happened previously. they said that said that publicly increased some of that buffer zone, but also we know as well that there are institutions in the u. n. as the un forces that have been there, the us and other nations that have supported the resolution that took place, at least after the 1967, more of trying to find some type of a piece to an actually an ongoing still on the conflict as an officially ended, but the i said the resume is left and so i think that's the question right now for
5:14 am
the national community. i think something that the united states could definitely look at and trying to make sure that israel is not overstepping its bounds. and that it's also respecting the international norms and standards. and i think it was something to us actually can help of helping shape this conversation. so adam, you mentioned the us role here going forward, and that's what i wanted to ask you about next. because we know that joe biden administration, in the waning days of his presidency, that it's been quite engaged when it comes to events on the ground in syria. us secretary of state anthony blake and confirmed that direct lines of dialogue with the mask as have been opened by the incoming president. donald trump has said that the us should not be involved in syria. so from your perspective, where does that leave things in? is it even realistic to think that the us would not be involved in some capacity going forward when it comes to syria? i don't think it's unrealistic to think that president elect trump would want to withdraw us forces from the east of syria. i think we know that from the past of
5:15 am
how he said he was going to do that and then he changed his mind. but i think the us has a very important role here. the us forces are in the east of syria, around the top, scarce than at the intersection of the borders of jordan, a rock and syria, a very important as far as that's a deterrent on itself. as far as some of in the past, some of the ways in which to iran or iranian proxies in the west of rock and try to use some logistical communications lines going across the country. so i think the us has a very big role here. admittedly, it hasn't had the biggest role in the west of syria. and so i think this is in the past week what you seen of secretary blank and traveling to on correct of traveling to jordan to engage with king abdullah. i think they also all important international lockers to engage us and try and help shake the situation positively
5:16 am
and try to continue to go that i think the us that so there's just current contextural factors. but looking at beyond that and, and the isis grass or conflict and what has happened over the past decade. there, i think it's so important. and the us has to remain engaged because a lot of these conditions still exist in the east of syria. a lot of for ice has fighters to imprison, is there so a lot of reasons for the us to remain engaged. all right, adam clement squared to get your perspective. thanks so much. we appreciate it. thank you. the you in special on way to syria is in damascus and a push to advance the political transition process. gear petterson has met with the head of the new administration of the shut up. they discussed the importance of uniting syria moving forward. petterson also called for justice and accountability rather than act of revenge. following the ousting of president bush shot of us as all events of age sat down with the syrian information minister to discuss the current situation in the country. you have to start from 0. so what kind of
5:17 am
challenges we, you face to restrict everything and if it help desk on the move on was an old a shot of a story actually up to 54 years of ruling the criminal regime left, the country almost completely destroyed. and this criminal regime destroyed all the villages and searching even destroyed civilian homes, rendering them on use of the company. and the economic reality in syria is very di . it's a legacy that needs a lot of work to rebuild a new economy from scratch origin of the criminal regime, dedicated serious economic resources to occupying countries which were invited to participate in the war against the syrian people and the salvation government. and starting with megan resources, i think, and we believe that are pointing qualified stuff in the right places within the upcoming government to ensure attending a new page and serious history. i need to build and develop bacon syria equal to the most develop civilization and build
5:18 am
a nation that lives up to the aspirations of the syrian people that i maintain, that social fabric hold on. the still ahead on out 0 o as in the as please for unity and an in the classes between palestinian authority forces and fighters image jeanine refugee camp. plus the chinese restaurants introduced price meals to brand customers. as the country struggles with the property down to the winters, what established out in east asia, the coldest. when coming out to the northeast of china, across the say, japan and giving started to her condo and home shrew. keeping the temperatures down even knocking them further down in the very place itself is the max of 3. but sunshine is predominant in china, as you can see, which it should be really most of the time during the winter just feels cold.
5:19 am
here's a change of scene. you wouldn't expect to see study again in something tyler, but there it is. the writing should be fair this afternoon to them. the lady's here, but in june probably in some site on there are still rescues going on because of this funding. so the readings bit for the north and it should be but otherwise indonesia and and, but i easier are covered in daily child sometimes stove this circulation he would suggest that the volume is at risk of some heavier writing the end of monday or tuesday, coming to cir lanka, more right, this circulation, the better bengal will catch in towards time. well, now they're giving the potential for floods in shanghai, the northern part of injury is still suffering from persistent fog. it's quite cold . no, a long way north and like drop off and you, denny ecology, is still suffering. and that's also reflected in the whole, despite the occasional move into the but this is there where, where the that'd be more funding once again in time will not do the
5:20 am
packing these democratic nations justify this kind of behaviors. collateral damage has collateral damage. that's why we all team is leading to what we're seeing that will allow me to push back for a moment is the you are systems corporate is real effective. it's a little bit branding from the impact to the us selections, the escalating conflict in the middle east. and the urgency of climate action upfront sets the stage for serious debate on out jersey or the the, you're watching out a 0 reminder of our top stories. this out,
