the 10 days onto the full of special on the side. the searches on for tens of thousands of syrians went missing under his regime mass graves believes to contain the remains of thousands of forties of being uncovered across syria. the un says it's made contact with the country's new administration and is hoping to send teams to investigate the sides containing mass graves. say the whole of the went to once believed to be one of them. north of the capital, damascus. a 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 the north of damascus. i saw owned

a construction company. he says the chart i said security agencies used his machinery to bury tortured prisoners here and houses. we show the name the fluid. exactly, and i have a bad feeling every time i come here and it brings back memories of what i saw for years refrigerated truck seized to dump bodies in ships on a regular basis. if it was very ugly, then 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 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 osha zeta. good type of damascus countryside. a serious prime minister mohammed elva she had, has told of 0 of the country is running very low on foreign currency reserves. 13 years of civil war crippled, serious economy for the she had also blamed systemic corruption within the us and regime. the prime minister is cooling on the international community to help retrieve some this for money. or lisa set it up with started. i said it wasn't just bush auto said. there was a whole system of plundering the results of the wealth of the syrian people. but now that money should have been used to fund the reconstruction of syria and we should seek help. so this from the international community, because that money is the money of the syrian people that m to some of the engines aid has moved from the syrian capital, damascus. well, the prime minister was talking to algebra 2 on a very number of issues with the most important being the economic condition of

this country that this administration has inherited. this is a fighting force which had a chance to run the provincial government, the salvation government in the golden pots. and so yeah, and this is the prime minister who let the government. and there's a lot of expectation from the people of syria that these people who come to power are from them and are going to solve their problems. and that is why it is important for them to continue this line of communication to the people and to the outside world has been. remember, students being poor for the last 13 years, the assad government used up most of its money on food and fuel and continuing this war against the opposition, which is now in charge. so the problem is to talking about how dire this situation is, how there is no money left. and it is going to further questions from the people of syria on whether they adopted their engineers or cleaners, or if they're coming into the jobs or that they're going to be paid at the end of the month. how is that money going to come? there is that big money going to come from, and this is also an appeal to the friends of syria. those uh, within a,

around its board is and beyond has been do not just arrange for those funds that are exist in the, the outside world to be rip, actually it, it just area. but also, and it being for help. because if the international community wants a stable syria, the city and administration will need some money to make sure that it remains that way. you and envoy just syria has warned that the conflict in the country is fall from over addressing the security council from damascus. petterson said he was concerned about the reports of military escalation in the news, pointing to classes between turkish backed and curtis groups. 0 to 0 is gabriel and was under reports from the un headquarters in new york. us the 1st security council meeting on serious since the fall of a side were council members got updates on the political and humanitarian situation . on the political front gear petterson, the un special envoy for syria spoke to the counsel via video conference from

damascus. he's been meeting top officials of the new administration and says there's growing support to recognize and assist the new leaders steering transition concrete movement on them inclusive political transition, really big t and ensuring so you're going to receive states along support in needs. so it is clear and the master willingness to engage the needs or the mens. i'm for the only be address with broad support including a screws and to sanctions prompted action on designations to i'm for reconstruction. petterson told the counsel a roadmap to a syrian lead political transition should have 4 key elements and orderly transition and preservation of state institutions. it should be inclusive of the broadest spectrum of syrian society and political parties. there must be a new constitution and free and fair elections. petterson also told is real and to

stop. it's a tax on syria is right, and let's see is oil supplement activity and they don't provide ceiling going all rich are any your attacks on serial silver entity, uncoated, tony and then tell you are the most stop on a humanitarian front. tom fletcher of the newly appointed emergency relief coordinator also brief. the council from damascus. he said before the fall of the assad regime, 17000000 syrians, 82 men of terry and support. 1000000 new people have been displaced in less than 2 weeks, but he also came to the council with a rare good news. the situation has begun to stabilize. as i've seen this week, markets rose health facilities are reopening children and going back to school age operations advisory resuming across most of our hops in the security council.

gone are the days of division and disagreements over syria, at least right now within the counsel and the wider international community. there is consensus that there's a real opportunity to help syria through this transition gabriel's onto, i'll just either at the united nations in new york. and anchor on the president of the you commission, us live on july and has met with the turkish president just to discuss the situation in syria, which of type other one says to q will not allow syria to become a base for um, dakota, san purchase system cuz typically it has more, the lands, visits on colorado is the 1st visit, said rolled in her 2nd monday and she gave a lot of importance to the visits um it'd before she met with the circus presence. i just, i dont, she stated that your acknowledges that add on is an influential key regional

player when it comes to syria. so today during a drawing press conference by add on and from the land a we with miss a new beginning, new page open for to kit you and relations. and also for the future of syrian people. both sides try to cooperate in the best way for the continuation of the syrian assistance and assistance and rebuilding life and reconstruction in syria. along with establishing tours in between the european union countries and the new administration in syria. that's a, that's over through the bashar assad government to kia, has a very defense full knowledge about the local groups inside syria has a military presence for a couple of years. and that the to have a trade or the syrian rebels factions. and that's why the european countries are

twice to benefit from this expose as they see the feature of syria, the path to serious feature actually goes through to keep checking is foreign minister is refusing a claim. it has taken over syria. on monday us president elect, donald trump said uncle row was behind the collapse of the outside regime, speaking exclusively geologist era. in his 1st english interview. how can feed and told sammy's a done? the us backing of syrian curtis groups amounts to support of terrorism. in the us president says to kia has conducted and what he called an unfriendly takeover of syria. something he says took it has wanted for thousands of years. how do you respond to that? that took it, conduct an unfriendly takeover of sodium. while i think, 1st of all, let me say this, we will then call it a tit quoted because it will be a great mistake to present what's been happening in syria for seating people

is not to take quote. i think if there is any k quote is the real of the proceeding people which is taking over now, do you, do you consider in that scenario for example, that the us is backing a total group by supporting the y p g? yes. and, and we've told, told this openly many times, and if that policy doesn't change, does that put you on a collision course with the united states, especially with the new administration that's coming into pal? well, this is exactly what we've been trying to avoid for some years. watch the full interview with the turkish foreign minister on till $12.00 to 0. on wednesday, december 18th of 2013, gmc, the, the

israel is close, closer than ever to closing a c spy, a deal with him us that will free the captives held in gaza. that's according to its defense vista. israel cons. november 2023. so the 1st and only deal that led to the release of more than a 100 captives in garza and exchange for a $150.00 palestinian prisoners no day has moved from the jordanian capital, amman. and reminder, that new is reporting from there because these rarely government has bad of a 0 from operating in israel and the occupied west bank. so there is a lot of optimism in is really media reports about possibly reaching a ceasefire deal that would see the release of at least some is really captives from gaza. now this optimism is cautious because we've been here before. and the efforts were startled at the last minute because of new conditions because of different considerations. but what is at stake here?

the situation that humanitarian situation in the gaza strip is beyond catastrophic and how mouse wants to see the entry of humanitarian assistance. as soon as possible that is being tied to phase one of the cease fire agreements. and right now, as we understand, the discussions are down to the details to the names of who would be released. what, who, who among the palestinian detailing is would also be released? so the details are being ironed out. egypt and pots are playing, of course, an important role. and the united states has its eyes on this. the outgoing and incoming un administrations have a vested interest in a ceasefire deal being announced, even if it doesn't lead to an end to the war. some managed expectations, and in the meantime, how must issued a statement saying that a cease fire deal is within reach. if nothing, yeah, who doesn't introduce new conditions? no, to all the data. i'm on the ground in gaza,

its been another day of bloodshed. at least 10 people have been killed in as many as strikes in guns of switching rescue workers searched for the bodies in the ruins of a destroyed home in the northwest of the cities. full members of the same family believed to have died in that strike. any of these many ami from tones housing displaced, people in big law. here in northern garza, at least 15 people were killed in a single and striking several others died in an early morning striking near the cum . i'll add one hospital will become a loud one. hospital has come under repeated attack. since the stones of israel siege of northern garza, these really military has used exploding robots near its grounds designating them at night. the explosions have devastated nearby buildings and terrorized patients out of here as most carlos has been to the hospital, it has more about the ongoing attacks federal products to some of the medical stuff

. patients and one of the people asked because way the army keep this toning trouble with the photo explosives near to come out of the hospital. we are talking here about streets away from the medical stuff. that's why fragments keep hitting directly the hospital itself. and that's why doctors here are installing this at to this says the window of the i see you, the boss meant to keep themselves safe from the attacks and a love 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 the show when will think, which is the ceiling or the i c u department. and the father chose 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 keep attacking and shooting the hospital itself. doctors and the patients here, everybody to stop this genocide, also to save this only operational health facility in the besieged nothing cause threat clause because you just eat a page that you found a sign in the head on. i'll just say right, ukraine says it was behind
