the kind of injured the kind of patients inside the house with their own made of civilian population of being bombed inside their homes or around the vicinity of the house. because the united nations says israel continues to obstruct its efforts to get aid into northern gaza. that's despise repeated warnings from humana. terry, in groups of semen in the area, is imminent. gabriel elizondo has moved from the united nation of pure un headquarters in new york. it's almost a daily occurrence now for us to hear from you and officials lamenting the fact. they are having a very hard time getting aid in to guys a w n and their partners have to coordinate with is really officials. and the un tells us that israel continues to deny most of their requests. yet again, this really authorities denied the request from the united nations to reach the besieged parts of the north. today. that's based on noon, basically, uh,

and the east of jamalia. yesterday we underscored how the vast majority of our efforts to reach north guys like governor. it's, since he is really siege began 10 weeks ago, have been blocked. most requests are denied out right. now listen to these numbers that were provided to us by the us. and they said in the 1st 2 weeks of december, they planned 339. 8. movements throughout the entire gaza strip is real facilitated. fewer than a 3rd of those. and when it comes to the north of guys are the numbers are even worse. the un says in the last couple of weeks, they had planned 96 humanitarian movements in the north of waddy gaza. but just 16 of those were facilitated by israeli authorities. gabriel santo, i was just either at united nations in new york to send a head on out to 0. the economy is strong overall and has made significant progress toward our, our goals over the past 2 years. the us costs interest rates,

across small central areas for places like alice springs and full tough. we have a look out the 3 day. well, we've got a big jump in the days ahead. it is going to be very hot and breezy on saturday. not as hot as cross and cross new zealand has been a little bit cooler here. thanks to cold air blowing and it does look like a shower picture of the next 2 days. that rain continuing, folding heavily on the south island on friday and heavy rain is still the story across the southeast asia. it's not as was the indo china for places like southern thailand, heavy rain continues for malaysia of a single pole and southern parts of the philippines. on thursday the news

. ringback the, the, [000:00:00;00] the hello again, this is a reminder of our top stories, the sound domestic science have resumed for the 1st time in serious since the toppling of the outside regime for the crossings of rome. so reopening as life gradually returns to normal,

but the new administration is facing many challenges as the regime's atrocities continue to be uncovered. several mass graves have been found across syria containing bodies of those killed on the us, on through at least 14 pena city, and zip in kills. in his rally strengths in the north. the strikes targeted homes in jamalia and gauze, and cities. children are among the occupied westbank palestinian authority forces on continuing rates in the janine refugee camp. there has been gun battles there for several days. at least 3 palestinians have been killed, including a senior jeanine for games come on to the area has been a strong hold. society has opposing israel's occupation. the palestinian authority says it's trying to root out what it calls lola's elements in the can. i don't think the team we use, there's no electricity or water. the water tanks right now,

there is no water left for us to drink. the tanks were punctured by bullets. we have to collect water from the street to bonham. the so right now i've been sitting here since the morning. i haven't dare to enter the house. the windows of the 3 rooms were broken and one of the rooms has several bullets. holes this size there from the weapons of the palestinian authority because their position opposite us. they are in a compound up there. if we were inside, we would have been killed the palestinian interior. minnesota has described the situation engineer and as unacceptable. and we're still in mcdonough in the day, not to have the so we have challenges, an old governor rates, especially engineering challenges related to drugs and gangs that engage and rubbery. we also have a gap that must be addressed through dialogue with the leadership and not through expressions on the ground at the expense of the palestinian national issue. politically, the situation is unacceptable and therefore we seeks around meetings with all levels of the palestinian people to unify the position and put pressure on those

who represent this case and apply the palestinian law that is based on a program that unites the peoples, you know, all day has more from jordan's capital online, and to remind her that she's reporting from there because he is really government has bend over to 0 from operating in israel and the occupied westbank hello study and civil society has presented an initiative to stop the gun battles. now raging in the jeanie and refuge account between palestinian authorities, security forces and the janine battalion, an arm group. and that is based in the comp. what is at issue here is the palestinian authority trying to assert its control. it says that it's pursuing armed elements. lawless elements of the statements say, and they want to empower, impose the rule of law, the residents of janine and say that this is an issue that should be resolved by dialogue that these are fighters who confront the israeli occupation and are not

implicated in a breaking palestinian law, but for now these battles have already caused bloodshed. a senior member of the janine brigade has been killed. a child in the jeanie and refuge account has also been killed. and people really are traumatized engine in by the transpiring events, waiting for calmer heads and cooler heads. to finish this, this dropped dramatic event in the city and to prevent it from spilling over to other towns in the occupied westbank. not all the angels either. i'm not, israel's prime minister has appeared in quote, intel of eve to resume testimony in his corruption trial. benjamin netanyahu is accused of bribery fraud and a breach of trust. if convicted he faces up to 10 years in prison as neil who denies any wrong doing. and has described the challenges as upset

a c. u. s. federal reserve has lower interest rates by a quarter point. the 3rd cons this year. however, jerome polled offense chapman war and they made the fuel costs to interest rates than expected in 2025. that's is, inflation rises, president elect donald trump, has threatened to introduce trade tariffs when he takes office, which could, was an inflation in the us. like kind of has moved from washington dc. the quoted percent comp to in rates was not unexpected. throughout the whole of 2020 for the 1st 6 months, the rate remain static, then the 1st rate came in september. and now this is the 3rd consecutive rates cut, showing the confidence that the reserve has in the nature of the country's economy . inflation is taking over just over 2 point one percent. the unemployment rate is in the region of 4.2 percent. these are because of that. the federal reserve lights . however, what is interesting is the golf,

the plots that it's revealed. now this is the number of rate cuts civics, fixed in the next year in 2025 that had been set at full rate cuts. but now the fitness indicating is, were introduced only to rate cuts in the next year, and possibly another 2 in 2026. this is revealing that the fed, although confidence in the strength of the economy, is going to proceed with caution. we know that reducing policy or strength too fast or too much could hinder progress on inflation. at the same time, reducing policy restraint too slowly or too little could unduly weaken economic activity and employment. and considering the extent and timing of additional adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate, the committee will assess incoming data, the evolving, i would look in the balance of risks. the next time the federal reserve sits will be

a week off to the inauguration of donald trump. a new administration coming in and the federal reserve is well aware about some of the things that might emerge from this. the president elect has already made clear that he's intent on introducing tariffs. now he claims that these tire of so paid for by be exposed to is, this is incorrect. the tire ups are in fact, paid by the american import is the costs of post onto the american consumer, which is obviously going to have an impact on that information to good. that's a said wants to keep down. at the same time though, the fed does not want to get into any form of conflict with the new administration . the administration, as we know from the past, does not like any form of rate increases. it once rate cuts, the fed does not want to drop rate so much that the economy is intending it to increase the rates. the administration is saying, do not increase the rates. it does not once that's kind of conflict. now, of course, the originally,

the administration has no influence whatsoever over the fed. however, from past experience, we know that this is not necessarily the case. my kind of, i'll just the era, washington ukrainian president, a lot of busy lensky has met with nato secretary general macro to in brussels. they're discussing future security guarantees for ukraine, including the provision of ad defense systems and of the military aid, or is a, has stressed the importance of laying the groundwork for keep head of any potential piece talks with russia. russian authorities say they've detained a suspect over the killing of a senior general in most go on tuesday. the 29 year old from las vegas, john has reportedly confessed to collaborating with ukrainian intelligence services in the attack on a go to kid at a loss. he wants to come onto of russia's nuclear chemical with chemical and biological defense to vision,
