new homes or on the streets in search of safety. the serious search a mass grades the codes contain the remains of thousands of people is found outside to master. i'm going over there and protect for we're human rights groups and the locals here believe the regime. it's very prisoners in mass graves, the, you're watching all the 0 life, i'm a headquarters and don't find any you navigate to also coming off. i am seriously concerned about the reports of military escalation. then he went on going to serial warrants the security council, the countries conflict is far from over. most so ahead we report from northern

draws us come out one hospital where is really forces upfront with exclusive robots around the facility. and the moments an earthquake, magnitude 7.3 hits a garage and trying to watch off. we're looking at the damage across the south pacific nation. the 10 days after the fall of a shot. and i saw the search is on for tens of thousands of syrians who went missing under his regina mass. graves believed to contain the remains of thousands of bodies are being uncovered across syria. the when says it's made contact with the countries new administration and is hoping to send teams to investigate mass grave sites. zayna hood went to what's believe to be one of those sites north of

the capital, damascus, a. hi, some alice sad says the truth about some of the 10s of thousands of missing syrians lives here underneath what used to be a regime base and could take far north of damascus. i saw him owned a construction company. he says the chart said security agencies used his machinery to bury tortured prisoners here and houses. we show the name of suited exactly and have a bad feeling every time i come here and it brings back memories of what i saw for years, refrigerated truck sees to dump bodies in cables on a regular basis. if it was very ugly, it's done. i some witnessed a parent for crimes. he wasn't the only one in this town. the writing on the wall documents the date of the burial, of an an identified man. there are others. and in this corner of the town cemetery, others were buried. but there are no tombstones, no names of their stories,

only to be told by the graveyards keeper, who can only say for sure that they were not from the town and were likely involved in opposition protests at the start of the uprising them of a new of them the regime buried around 100 people here. they buried them in batches . i prayed over their bodies, they were innocent civilians, and so they were our syrian brothers. could tie fall was over shame, stronghold it's outskirts. we're a close military's own that residents were not allowed to access. for years, families waited for news about their loved ones who disappeared in regime prisons, arbitrary and unlawful arrests were part of the regime strategy to silence the sent . now syrians need to find those who are still missing, right? scoop, say there are at least 100000 accounted, 400 the gun example. the refrigerator had trucks used to come at least twice a week. they used to use employees of government institutions and think as to the

graves. not one of us could say with at the time, answers mainly beneath the ground. people here are calling for experts to start digging. mass graves have already been on earth and other regime controlled areas. evidence of a long suspected pattern of organized states, violence center for their own shows, the good type of damascus country side. story is prime minister mohammed and associate has told elders 0 the country is running very low on foreign currency reserves, 13 years of war crippled, serious economy. but obviously it also blames to stomach corruption by the government. the prime minister is calling for the international community to help retrieve some of the money. a lisa, a set of software started that said, it wasn't just put shuttle. i said there was a whole system of plundering the results of the wealth of the syrian people. that money should have been used to fund the reconstruction of syria. and we should seek help to this from the international community. because that money is the money of

the syrian people. okay, let's go straight to the syrian capital demoss coast. that's where it's on. i've been, you have a, the standing by for us and tell us more about what the prime minister has to say. and also how his comments are being received the well, this is something that the 2nd people would want to hear because we've been speaking to people on the street. so are now beginning to question very is the next paycheck going to come from. if the people who are employed by governments difference, they continue to show up what will be paid at the end of the month. although it's just 11 days, 10 days into this new administration. but people are asking those questions and that is why the we've heard from the this administration's prime minister, we're talking about how lucky he has to work with it is estimated according to some rewards. there's only $200000000.00 that are left in the reserves of this country and about a few $100000000.00 in us dollars. so it is going to be difficult to run an entire country run. all of the services provide water and electricity and food and fuel

and everything to run as smooth as possibly can without any money. and this is why the city and up, but the interim government has been appealing not just to its allies without being divided. international community is what you've heard in the last few days or from the georgia indian foreign minister from the turkish part of mr. from the turkish president from the positive you fissions that this is going to be a transition which is going to require a lot of help from everyone who can help the country. we've also heard from diplomats, uh, you know, uh from since it's the latest country to open its embassy after a more than a decade of a breakdown between the on of diplomatic ties. you've seen the 2 key and the 3 m busy are open events. so it is now a wanted to stake and say, who are affected by the refugee crisis, who want to have it stability in syria. and according to this new administration don't just sending its own people to the outside world as well. that unless it has

the money and that does have the funds, it doesn't matter how good intentioned it is, it would not be able to provide for what the people need. okay, thank you. so i'm up in job aide is reporting from damascus and syria for the you and special of you and envoy to syria has warned that the conflict in the country is far from over addressing the security council from damascus. dear peterson said he was concerned about reports of military escalation in the north, pointing to classes between turkish backed and curtis groups. the 1st major challenge is of course, that the conflict has not ended. yes, we are seeing, i figured out that is stable at present in many parts, many in damascus tells me that the weather improvements that the new one in order to improve significantly up to 2 emission days. i mean stability but stability can very fragile and in many parts of syria,

i'm in the northeast. there are staying front lines on open hostilities in which civilians are being injured and displaced civilians. most people text it wherever they are. there must be the escalations towards the nationwide ceasefire, as well as efforts to address tensions between military factions. patterson also said is really strikes on syria and that's incursion into a u. n. buffer zone. next to the occupied goal on heights was putting the country's political transition at risk. it is on has occurs all more than $300.00 and fixed this strikes on may the 31st and it is that correct most and supplies across syria . since the folder seem printed, and these continue including lower minnesota and thought of tools.

but i'm president. such a tax play sped back a simple operation as further is on the mind, the prospect of an orderly political translation. we have also seen the reports of these are alex having his plan to expand supplements in the going on is right and let's see is oil supplement activity and the occupied searing glove. rich are illegal attacks on syria, silver entity unto to tony, and then tell you, are the most stop to ok. joining us here as rob guy's been sold as a lecture on peace and security and durham university. welcome back. thanks for your time. so, you know, the goal of the international community, when it comes to syria, a stability, then what israel is doing is quite the stabilizing, isn't it? yes, absolutely. i think it is rouse and responds to instability and uncertainty the actually having to the instability, as you say is ro, fee is power vacuums. recently,

they don't like having own govern spaces on that board is now after october, the 7th, and the current war that's changed. you know, we've seen his ro, kind of go towards creating those ongoing spaces on his bordering concept with, without applying for the day after, for example, and then lebanon. but in syria, because it is written, know israel, that's been basically doing the fighting on biggest israel, was taken by surprise just as much as everyone else is. i think and there is this going to return to this feel of on govern spaces. and there's also a fear that turkey would be the new key play in syria to if he still has definitely resident taking his route. i have been at logan heads in the past. so i think what israel is trying to do is to launch has many strikes that account for the time being lost. it still has operational freedom to do so. and that will then basically give an operational freedom in the future. not stacked and syria, but also to possibly strike over the border in iraq. what do you make of the international communities response to what is real is doing and see, i mean,

you speak of this operational freedom, the israel claims to have yes. as the response from the international community, but been strong enough. well, i think it's been and you know, look at the, by the ministration, in terms of the response, the in the cash international community to buy them ministration has a very poor track record. i think it's fair to say of guessing israel to change his behavior in gaza on the lebanon. in this case, we're not really seeing anything like depression that they existed in gaza for example. so yes, the entire media's response has certainly been lat. cluster is ro, initially sold the same way going after the chemical weapons size and the long range missiles. and i think the in special for the community said, okay, you know, we can, we can see the logic and not. but what we're seeing here is some think fault the on that, you know, it's clear the is what has now taller thing. basically any piece of regime and infrastructure it sees and also needs it doing that is expanding is occupation. you'll actually abrogating the 1974 disagreement at a disengagement agreement,

which by the way, our shara has said that his country wants to uphold. they weren't un monitors by that as soon as possible, right? so he's depriving, is relatively excuse to do these things. but we're not seeing any change on the ground from his route. we not seeing any conservation from the instructional community. okay. when it comes to other parts of the country. um the you on special envoy. i did say that a classes between circus backed. and kurt, as groups in the north i have resumed c c saying that the conflict has not in fact and yet what, what's going to be the impact of these classes on that area and the north and how, how was that all going to play out? yeah, if i had to pick one of the conflicts and problems and issues and syria is a, this is the one to watch for, you know, all of this kind of optimism breaking down. i think it would be that took a has a 100 me a 100 miles, sorry. post is that within syria documentation of syria with its proxy through the siri national long me that the whole point that is to push the codes the s d s. on

the curtis autonomous region. a way from toki is border. they've managed to do that in several places, but the one place they haven't is the town of co bonnie, which many of us will remember for being a pivotal and placed with the codes to expand the gains i so and also where they took his stand against the so now you last time could bonnie is on the board with took it splits, took us security zone into so is you know, you can see the strategic logic of took a needing to and basically exist it so far as you can control is a company but the codes are not going to let that happen. so this is the rest of a full size. things that can drag in all kinds of places within syria, even those without direct interest on the ground. like haste. yes. okay, we will leave it there. thank you. so much rob guys, folder lecture and peace and security at durham university. thanks for your time. thank you. the

israel is quote, closer than ever to closing a ceasefire. deal with him us that will free the captives held in gaza. and that's according to the defense minister as real caps, november 2023. so the 1st and only deal that led to the release of more than a $100.00, a captives and exchange for a $150000.00 in prisoners. let's bring a new to all day, joining us from the georgia in and capital online news reporting from there, because the is really government has banned elda 0 from israel, and from the occupied west bank as well, knew it. what are you hearing about how close a deal possibly is as well that in there's a flurry of diplomatic activity and a lot of people are on the phone from all corners of the world is really media reports that the optimism is unprecedented right now. and israel, not necessarily because this is going to be a comprehensive and the lower kind of deal. it won't be. but certainly because this

is the closest, the discussions i've gotten to a deal and the deal would be at a temporary it would be a ceasefire. not an end to the war, but the details that the sides are discussing are quite specific. a name leave, you know, the names, how many are captives would be released? how many of them would be alive? what, how much wants in return? all of these details are now on the table and that is a new development. certainly one we haven't seen in some time. okay, no, thank you so much for that. update me with all of the reporting from my mind in jordan are still a heads on alta 0. ukraine says it's behind the bomb attack in moscow that killed a senior russian general people in my office to pick up the pieces officer, a powerful psych phones harris and the french indian ocean territory.

the, there seems to be a never ending cascade of showers in vietnam. the 9 is about to get very good, very wet once again with the northeast mountains. so you know, it should be, what time do you have? it also, it should move size and the next belt of fairly heavy reading, which is affecting potentially more likely. and sometimes it's stover, probably south of the border, but we want to guarantee it is look a little bit driving java, but that's known as the last along with the sheriff's. we'll come back again from the west, feed your base and sometimes enhancing the share houses. these are the waves, well, big ways of call down the most recent one means, particularly cold is gonna produce that when hawkeye their home shoot for a time of thinking south korean. obviously you might have assembled the same on the cold and leaks the side of the sunshine to the rest of it was a bit of

a pull of kind of heading towards beijing. that's cause code is going to get one degree full colder than average admittedly, and that's, i think it will be felt also in taiwan, taught by dying to about 40 miles. how do you get to saturday if any, wouldn't be pictures? well, i have to say in the afternoon the 21 significant departure from the no just don't want to be cold in northern indeed, but this time the for the size of you would expect to be western channel. right. but this rate is edging up towards the end of the dash, and the addition will get quite heavy. i think on thursday, the century for june of this, it was a hey from from the war, i am shelter for civilian refugees. web ex got throwed into the garden during cam boat is bloody civil stuff. flooring us up to here and suddenly we have a ton of x on the canal, a ruler shed. take anything of value out of the hotel cambodia lip in no more

hotels. oh no, just the chairs, a reminder up the top stories on how to 0. this, our, a search is underway in syria for tens of thousands of people who are missing under the servers in it's reported, the thousands were buried in a mass grave of north of the capital, damascus. the winds on void to syria has war. and this, the conflicts in the country has not ended yet. 0 periods peterson told a security council. he was concerned by reports of military escalation, pointing to classes between arms. groups in the north,

in the united nations refugee agency says about a 1000000 syrian refugees are expected to return to the country and the 1st 6 months of next year. it's middle east of north africa director is urging states to avoid forest returns. she says, it's just far too soon to make this determination on for the safety and stability of syria. and there are many questions that need to be answered. we have massive humanitarian needs on a scale that hasn't in any way diminished. stephanie tucker isn't going to happen. eastern search here. a city with a large syrian refugee population near the border with syria. she sent this updates . this is the country that's been crippled by war for 13 years. it is not in a state to receive such a mass influx so quickly. certainly everyone we've been speaking through here and goes beyond step of the on top of the 2nd biggest city in terms of hosting syrian refugees. most of the syrians here are from

a level and everybody we've been speaking to wants to return. what does that uh, you know, it is going to be a slow process in the sense that a lot of them have built their lives here over 13 years. they have children there in school, and so it is something that needs to take some planning. now turkey at the moment is not giving permits, in the sense of the people could go to a level and come back to turkey just to figure out what the situation is like on the ground, which is also why you're not seeing hundreds of thousands of people because you would, people want to go and see what the state of their homes is like. they want to go see relatives. they want to do that immediately. what they call it, move everything, and me just see of course, because you're operating 13 years of life, many with children, elderly, etc. so, i think it, of course not mis tossed the head, but certainly most people we've been speaking to here ones which are interestingly, a lot of the young people under 18, for example, that have grown up here. lot of those feel turkish, in fact they say some of them saying i'm scared about going back to syria because i

don't think i can even go to school in our back. so there's so many layers to this 13 years that people have been out of the country. it's been another day of blood sheds in the gaza strip. at least 10 people have been killed and is really air strikes and garza city rescue workers search for bodies and the ruins of a destroyed home and the northwest part of the city for members of the same family are believe to have died in that straight. most earlier that is really army bond homes. housing displays people in big law here in northern garza. but these 15 people were killed in a single era strike. several others died in an early morning striking. they were come out lodge on hospital children or among the injured. the northern part of the strip has been under siege and is really bombardments for more than 70 days. what come out loud one hospital has come under repeated attack. since the start of israel seen huge of northern garza, is really military has used exploding robots near its grounds,

designating them at nights. the explosions have devastated nearby buildings and terrorized patients all zero's more often to who it has been to the hospital. and has more about the ongoing attacks. the official panics, totally ridiculous task. patients and one to people as these were in the army, keep this toning trouble with the photo explosives near to come out of the hospital . we are talking here about the street away from the medical stuff. that's why the fragments keep hitting directly the hospital itself. and that's why doctors here are, is tolling this and that says on the window of the i see you to box me to keep themselves safe from the attacks and allow me to show you one more thing, which is the neighborhood near to come out of the hospital which is completely

destroyed, which is completely live in the ground as a calculator to say in the picture. so this is the limit of destruction inflicting in the hospital as you can see. and along with this one will think, which is the ceiling department and the product shots here. and also the tax directly shows the i c u department from this bought from this side. so we also can key about lucky scenes every night, every morning and every day as the army keeps tracking and shooting the hospital. it's those doctors and the patients here are everybody to stop this genocide also to save this only operational health facility in the

besieged, nothing cause threat. logic issue is, is the page that you found this time the, the ukraine security services. it was behind the killing of a high ranking russian military general in moscow. igor, kerry law of and his assistants were killed when a bomb hidden in an electric scooter was designated. it happens in the early hours of tuesday morning, outside an apartment building around 7 kilometers east of the kremlin, the bloss shattered windows up to the 4th floor and security cameras captured the moments of that explosion. under criminal investigation is underway. sure law of was commander of the nuclear, chemical and biological weapons division of the russian armed forces. on monday, ukraine security service charge him an up sent you with using bands chemical
