critics choose is relative exploit to me up here. instead we had to make a land grab the in the besieged, north of garza is really war planes of bottom and homes and the city will be here. at least 8 people have been killed in a tackle or residential building. the strike happened sitting there that come out of on hospital residents are struggling to reach those still trumped under the rumble. it will come out as well and hospital has come under repeated attack since the stones of israel, a siege of northern gauze. some of the latest attacks by these very minutes for the car without using remote control vehicles carrying explosives, explosions of devastated nearby buildings and terrified patients. all just there was muff calculated has been to the hospital and says more about the ongoing attacks. central panics, tools, medical staff,

patients and one of the people asked these way to on the key this tony ramos, 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 and to this says on the window of the i see you to box me to keep themselves saved from the is via text 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 you can clearly see in the picture. so this is the limit of destruction inflicting the hospital as you can see and

allow me to show you one more thing, which is the ceiling department and the color chart 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 talking and shooting the hospital itself, doctors and the patients here, i'll be to everybody to stop this genocide also to save this fully operational health facility in the besieged nothing goes to it wasn't as easy to find a sign. a mass says a ceasefire. deal in garza is possible. if israel stops, that's a new conditions. it's very defense, but it still says

a deal is close. going to have a lots. he's also made comments. pushing for the defeats of from us and continued control that goes well, talks are on the way in colorado and go off to multiple rounds collapse without an agreement. no day has more now from the georgia any and capital. i'm not, nor is there because these many governments has bound balances here from operating in israel and the occupied westbank. 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 has 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 agreement. 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 detains would also be released. so the details are being ironed out. egypt and i thought 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. it's nothing. yeah. who doesn't introduce new conditions? no, to all the data on ukraine's security services. it's was behind the killing of a high ranking russian general in most good ego could rid of who was in charge of

russia's nuclear, chemical and biological defense was killed by a bomb hidden in an electric scooter. he's the most senior russian office to be killed in the war and you probably know something about of the reports now from us getting said in the morning a parcel bloss shakes, a quiet smile. screw neighborhoods shot 3 windows in nearby buildings filled with the before books, but the, there was some kind of a bank we warehouse to sleep, didn't understand anything. there was no fire. 15 minutes later special surfaces begin to gather bill us as 5 departments emergency services for the gardening, blue cross, there was a strong shudder like a tower crane had fallen. for some reason the blast wave broke the inner bloss and my window. the firefighters arrived 1st because the fire alarm went off. that's hawk code 54 year old lift 10, a general eagle, q, reload the head of rushes, and you click chemical and biological defense. and he's such

a 3 year old assistant rational source whose side the bone was hayden on the handle of an electric screws up pucks near the entrance to the building. it was designated using a radio signal or recall from a mobile phone. it sold those behind that talk, the monitoring the general, remotely vot a timer left in aconia by which is being evacuated now. the lens was pointing at the entrance to the building rocks in the rod to keep it hayton, the ukrainians, say carry loops. killing was a special operation by the security services. they accused him of organizing chemical attacks on ukrainian soil, calling him a legitimate target. the russian authorities have described the bowman tied as terrorism. while souls as close to can relive say that shortly before his death the general has said he was a target for the ukrainians. also he uncovered data on biological laboratories in ukraine on plans for toxic chemicals, publications against russia. u dash above oliver ultra 0 most k. so the head on als

is here at the moment to magnitude 7 of us quite kids. funny want to we look at the damage across the south pacific nation, the in depth analysis of the days headlines. what are we supposed to read pins through the use of basically you miss all by russian informed opinions. finally, after over a year of genocide, the i c. c has come to this decision, critical debate. the difference between china and most of the rest of the world is a china plans long term inside story do conferences and meetings like cop $29.00 and others make a difference on how to 0 over 27000 harrowing photographs as kimberly until they can do that to us, the evidence in this case is frankly even stronger than that that we had against

the nazis in their under. in the 1st of a 2 part series. out to 0 photos, powerful cases of all crimes against civilians allegedly kills by the syrian government. with photographic evidence from the seas of files lost souls of syria, on outages, era, the mood and untold stories from asia and the pacific. on would you say era the without just a reminder of the main stories. now, a search is under way in serious

a tens of thousands of people when missing ones of the sun's regime is reported that thousands were buried in a mess, great north of the capital of damascus. you ins invoices. serious says there's growing international consensus to recognize new administration petterson to address the security council for an inclusive, difficult transition. free and fair elections. a mass says a cease fire task that is possible if israel stop setting new conditions. so any defense minister says the deal is closer than that, the source to make comments pushing for the street from us continue to control guns a suspect to the high profile. kidding of a us health insurance executive has been charged with murder as an act of terrorism . we g monday and he is accused of shooting dash united health care chief executive braun thompson the your 2 weeks ago when jenny was arrested in pennsylvania after 5

day man hunt. the case attracted worldwide attention with many online criticizing insurance industry and on the affordable health care. this was a frightening, well planned, targeted murder that was intended to cause shock and attention and intimidation. it occurred in one of the most bustling parts of our city, straining the safety of local residents, interest the legs, commuters, and business people just starting out on their day. let me say this plainly. there is no heroism in what men gianni did. this was a senseless act of violence. it was a cold and calculated crime that stole a life and putting new yorkers at risk. we don't celebrate murders and we don't lie and ice the killing of any one and any attempt to rationalize this is a vile,

reckless and offensive to our deeply held principles of justice around these other and is a criminal defense attorney. and former prosecutor is also adjunct professor of laura cornell low school. he joins us from new york, welcome to the program. so what do you make of the nature and seriousness of these challenges? i think like a lot of my colleagues there was a bit of a surprise and a bit of hey, wait a 2nd um and there was certainly a pause for reflection in new york just about every murder that is committed is murder in the 2nd degree murder in the 1st degree is reserved uh, typically for the killing of a police officer, the killing of a judge. i don't know that many of us, particularly in the legal community, expected mr. mann, joan, to be charged with murder. in the 1st degree. i think we all assume that would be

murdering the 2nd degree is a very interesting analysis that the district attorney has undertaken by looking at the killing and saying, well, it intimidated the population of new york city. therefore, it would sit within the definition of murder in the 1st degree, and that's why we have an indictment for murder in the 1st degree as opposed to the typical murder in the 2nd degree is found guilty and obviously we don't know that's um how much these kinds of uh, charges counts that affect the nature of any sentencing. certainly murder in the 1st degree. and again, it's so rarely charged in new york. murder in the 1st degree does carry with it a penalty over and above the usual murder and the secondary break. and what we're talking about here is the difference in the minimum and the mandatory side of the sentencing with a murder in the 1st degree. there is the possibility on the maximum and of life

without the possibility of parole in new york, typically with murder. in the 2nd degree, you have the top end of it is the possibility of life, but not life without the possibility of parole. conversely, on the minimum and on murder, in the 2nd degree, you're talking about $15.00 to $25.00 as opposed to the minimum it with murder in the 1st degree being 20. so there was an enhancement of penalty. there is that possibility of life without the possibility of parole, which is certainly a bit of a scary proposition. so that's where we see the difference, the differences in the penalty when we talk about the difference between your usual murder in the 2nd degree. and here the a typical murder in the 1st degree. right. and what about this description of an act of terrorism? uh, how much that was the right for other cases in the future. it's hard to say

how. 7 charging mister man g only dieting him on murder in the 1st degree will affect the future of his case. or really any other case, i can tell you that certain way. um, it was a creative charging decision at a creative decision by the district attorney's office to present the grand jury with the option of been guiding for murder in the 1st degree. and again, this notion of the way the murder was committed. it was done so brazenly, it was done in a method and in a manner that would have intimidated the population of new york city. and that's exactly what the statute calls for. whether we're talking about intimidating the population or intimidating the government, the way that the model was carried out

a certain way on a busy street 6th avenue. yes, it was 6 45 in the morning, but lots of people are out in manhattan at 6 45 in the morning. that degree of planning and the degree of doing it in the open. the termination factor is what elevates it from 2nd degree to 1st degree. okay, around the southern, thanks so much indeed for your insights that thank you. thank you. kind of the governing pots is internal of the deputy prime minister, resigned, and an active defense against. just ensure that christopher freeland was also a finance minister and considered should as mostly oil. i'm not in a statement. the feeling says she found a self at all. and so the prime minister and criticize today for political gimmicks . she says they also disagreed on how to handle terrace, threatened by incoming us present. and next, donald trump today, who is left the country for nearly

a decade is facing growing calls from the opposition to step down. the hi minister has lost the confidence of canadians, lost the confidence of many of us embassies. and yesterday he lost the confidence of his finance minister and no one because after 9 years was prime minister has broken everything. he's broken our borders, broken, immigration, broken, housing, and broken budget. so when he's the prime minister, just stop breaking things, acknowledgement, he doesn't have a mandate to continue to government and call a carpet to have somebody or at least 22 people are known to have died following one of the strongest storms and many a century to hit the french overseas temperature of my own government has imposed a night time, a few on the indian ocean island. ahead of a visit by president of my own. the con, it's for the final death toll could be in the hundreds

did. at least 14 people have been killed and hundreds injured off to a 7.3 magnitude. earthquake struck the south pacific on a nation of venue onto i just wanted to buzz has more than this. now, the disaster strikes value out to this is the moment, the 7.3 magnitude earthquake, exploded deep under water near the coast of the capital port v last one of the most powerful quakes to hit the region in decades. it's a stronger quick than i've ever experienced in my 21 years living in bonnie walter . and i've seen quite a few and quite a few large ones. my wife said it was the largest one she had seen in her life. i assure you, of course, is born in baltimore for at least 6 aftershocks followed the initial quake, which flashes buildings throughout the city. like this one, housing, the american, british,

and french embassies. all staff are safe and accounted for. but communications are down in power and water cut in most of the capital roads to the port destroyed by land slides with the hospital to damage to function. injured people are being treated outside. nearby australia is deploying emergency teams to help. we will provide whatever assistance is required. i'd say i say to the people have been a while to you. our family and australia is here to help donna watts who lives within the pacific ring of fire. and 1st quakes are common here. un says more than 100000 people have been affected by this one. witnesses report bodies laying in the streets as rescuers work to help survivors and find those missing. the death toll is expected to rise. alexandra buyers al jazeera. you can find more information
