everywhere in what used to be a potato chip factory. on the outskirts of duma, north of damascus of omar shows us how these bound pills were hidden for export. and one of the ways was to put them in plastic fruits, it cut off to store them on. this used to be a factory that made potato chips aside, took it by force and turned it into a cap to go on for. so let's see. that was run by businessman and a member of parliament. this was a multi $1000000000.00 business vessel, shows us up to 3 kilos at a time. are being found in fact, and these electrical inverters of a financial lifeline for a nearly bankrupt state. that became with many calls on our coast state. western officials long said the revenues allowed the regime to withstand strict sanctions that were meant to hold officials responsible for war crimes and pressure. a said to end the conflict. us sanctions also target that the drug trade and its alleged sponsors. many of them close to the said family in the us, we knew,

in the way. the area including the one you see right behind me, the village of how many do you easily um, you know, keep by is the headquarters of when they part govern middleton. how many did each tax this call is that when they come to the site, i need to pauses and i take a few off enough. i've had the support of the body of us to be honest. we couldn't enjoy the full of the dictates of a chart because immediately on the following morning is riley tags rolled into our streets of wood. you had says he's great to see a is to see a petition of 1967 when he's people with forced from most of the goat on heights the on the annual solar june the and is ready sold. you asked me an arabic, if i'm the village chief i said, yes. he asked if he could come over. i said, for what purpose have you come here? this is outlined to which he replied, no, this is the land of israel. i said, no, your coming isn't occupied, but we're not going to move from here. the shadow of which i live here to either be a to would you had says he has amenities published in line of communication with

these lady ami in order to coordinate safety for his people. but if the heart of the active any were upset with the new lady is failing to be with us withhold during the less hama homes and so on, will count that at least send someone to meet with us. they simply nowhere to be seen. look, the is really tank. so right here, they're destroying the trees. if there's a coordination between them and al government, we're not aware of, it's not running out of, i'm not sure if no, serious new leadership says it is not looking for new conflicts. the task called on the international community to intervene to issue a serious sovereignty. but without any city and forces here, i just need a fee of what lies ahead for that area and its population. how much fun does 0 coordinate on the golan heights. the, the

400 and the 38 days of genocide in gaza has claimed the lives of more than 45000 palestinians. israel has repeatedly targeted every part of the street. at least 14 protest indians have been killed and is rarely strikes in the north. the strikes talks at the homes and to bother and guns. a city children among the dead is where the forces of again attacks the barely functioning come out at one hospital. the hospital director says dozens of people were injured in israel's data strikes, intensive care unit court 5. even the only i see you in northern garza out of service. a home that show from displaced people was heads just outside the hospital, at least a palestinian to killed northern gauze. the husband under is ready siege for more than 2 months. hundreds of thousands of palestinians have been subjected to unrelenting foaming. international organizations have been urgent as well to end its blockade and out

a deliveries to the area is just running off on the not everyone knows that our hospital is being appealing to the world for more than 75 days. that we need capabilities, supplies, and tools in our hospital as barely providing humanitarian assistance. but we have no choice but to appeal again. perhaps there will be a listening ear and meet the needs of kamala one hospital, so that we can provide a humanitarian service. honey mountain mood has more now from there out the line, central gossett of the religious things. besides that, the director of the hospital has been made and these appeals and statements for the past 75 days. and since the beginning of the ground defense that in the northern part of district leave an entire population, a travel to population of civilians, a tribe in the northern part of the district without the proper access to foods, water, medical supplies, and other lives. saving restores his life saving items for them without any food.

the w. a jo and other organizations have attempted many times to provide much needed medical supplies in a do the hospital and the northern part of the city. but the only succeeded fuel time just took it amount, been deliver, including the fuel tanks that was bomb 2 days later after it's a ride, as well as the other supplies that were bumped as well. on the 3rd floor of gun i'd want hospital is really military after it started, it's a ground offensive. at the beginning of october of this year. it is storm the hospital on the 25th of october, a rush thing, everyone inside the house, including patients, an injuries removing them from cubes or from any of the medical equipments and through gated them and detain others into unknown areas. release the director of the hospital and some of the medical staff were the only one in the hospice. so a knowledge of who is inside the hospital who gets in, who gets out how many patients i'm injured. a role not to judge really monitor is

yet. these really monitor continues with the narrative that the hospital houses militants houses, those who are wanted. but when we look at the ground, we look at these, the kind of injury, the kind of visions inside the hospital, all made of civilian population of being bombed inside their homes or around the vicinity of the hospitals. it's not a nation. so is israel continues to obstruct its efforts to get aiden to northern gauze. that's despite repeated warnings from humanitarian groups. that finding in the area is imminent. gabriel is on the as more from united nations here 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 into guys a l u 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,

these really authorities denied the request from the united nations to reach the besieged parts of the north. today that's based on noun bait, like a 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 weeks, they had planned 96 humanitarian movements in the north of why the gods. but just 16 of those were facilitated by israeli authorities. gabriel santo, ouch is here at united nations in new york. so the head on al jazeera of

the economy, a strong overall and has made significant progress toward our, our goals over the past 2 years. us cuts interest rates once again, the markets react with caution, varying fuel cards in the year. the an alliance of ethnic i'm groups is posing the biggest challenge to me in most countries since the 2021 with the exclusive access to remote camps in front line battles. people in power shops, the progress of an idealist. the young generation of rebels was a pivotal moment in the last 60 years of the countries trouble of history on the phones, me and my on the, on the ropes on al jazeera, his 1st trip out of because i'm sick. and when i met with, as voters are sealed,

then israel isolates because of a palestinian filmmaker become status in no way. i felt i'm just going to go for one month and go back again, separate from his family and homeland and denied the right to work. the bottles for acceptance in a foreign land, with dakota forums, i believe so. know how to explain the situation to them. you're going to fight for me because uh to the arctic witness on just 1620. yes, he was, you know, me on the record struck country election. and these are just for like an estimated, 230000 people again joined us as we speak just a 5 isn't victims 20 years on the the

watson. i'll just say a reminder about top stores, the saw, the subdivisions atrocities are continued to be on commons across the syria. more bodies have been found on this either in i'm trying to capital damascus. the area was under the control of your veins, back groups is really strikes of killed 14 palestinians in northern garza. that size the u. n says as well as the 9 it's requests to get a into the besieged area agencies. a warning of and pending for monetary into sales to california has declared a state of emergency of an outbreak of bed sleep. the governor said more assistance is needed for funds of to the virus, but to cattle. around 61 cases of bad food and people have been recorded in the us so far this year with more than half of them in california, most have been miles,

but the 1st severe case has not been recorded in louisiana. the us federal reserve as low as the interest rates by cause a point. the 3rd caught this. yeah. with the german powell, the fed chairman, the one that there may be fewer cuts the interest rates and expected in 2025. if inflation rises are present, elect donald trump has threatened to introduce the trade tires when he takes office, which could west inflation in the us, 100. now we have seen in the past when the trump was in power before he was deeply opposed to any rate rate increases. now the bid is clearly looking towards us in the future. that perhaps is why it is only introducing to a rate cuts in the coming year. it does not want to get into a position where it cuts too much. and then all of a sudden you've got the economy saying, what do you've got to increase rates? and administration saying, no, you do not increase rates,

we do not like that at all. so this is perhaps part of the reason why the fed is slowing down, why it is acting more cautiously in terms of future projected rate cuts. and this could be a point of conflict with the trump administration, and with the fed showed the fed go ahead and increase a rates against the wishes of the administration. should the economy dictate that it needs to do so? what's left itself some wiggle room by introducing only 2 rate cuts or proposing only 2 rate rate cuts in the next 12 months, rather than full democratic republic of congo. it was filed criminal complaints against the tech john apple fusing conflict minerals and its supply chain. apple has disputed the claims filed in france and belgium. you are an ex, but so the rights group say some minds run by i'm groups involved in all crimes. and then why connie has more on this now from the democratic republican congress in

100 groups and the majority of them. 7 as they hand on, on different to me, and it was in this rich area of the north east on of the, of the country. and then while you, connie was 0 goma, the democratic republic of coal fired has engulfed live. there is parliament building in the capital one the road at destroying offices and find all kinds of thoughts. you say they suspect austin. the incident has happened to mid political time. all surrounding the government's decision to move the speaker of the house of representatives. it was hot reports, the cards from the like 0 last raging to the halls of power firefighters, attempt to save light beer as capital building the dose, the joint chamber where just days ago heated debates between the majority in the opposition consume the room. the local tv reporter describes the sea salt city. this is as dreamless carrie was covered up building this on file folks. the entire
