[000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the, the farms factions across syria agreed to unites under the ministry of defense. part of the new administration is restructuring. find the, you're watching all do 0 life or my headquarters in delphi. i'm data you navigate is also coming off. i'm how much bought in the historic city of putting me on

central city coming up with tell you who's in control here. and what's that state in this part of the country in gaza is really true and strikes target the headquarters of the civil defense killing for people with no light up. and it's see justin or christians and they occupied westbank celebrate m usage christmas eve and the shadow of israel's devastating hor on garza, the hello, syria is new administration, has shown its 1st major sign of unit c. hoster armed factions reached an agreement to disband its leader for the shudder or says the groups across the country will form one army under the administrative defense. they all gathered at a special meeting in damascus on sunday to discuss the proposal. but the critter slides on us back the syrian democratic forces is not part of the deal. the arm

group has been in conflict with a turkish bacteria, national army in north eastern syria. meanwhile christians, so beholding mass and celebrations and ports of syria ahead of christmas day, the new with ministration has promised minority groups will be protected or correspondent as some of in java. joining us from the syrian capital of the masters to fort 1st. tell us about the armed forces a proposal of us now on the table, but the, the for reportedly not joining in why is that or was that is the big question, isn't it? because a large chunk of this country is controlled by curtis. net forces, which are backed by the united states forces register. kid sees the direct threats forces which time of the shut off and is meeting with the turkish foreign minister said, we'll have to lay down their weapons and only the people who are part of this united defense ministry will be able to tell you. um,

so that is going to be something that we still don't know the exact details from their side on why they're not part of it, but it is something which is which is going to raise a lot of concern here and say, because we've been hearing reports that took the plans to clear, not just the rest of the way to the east of the euphrates river, all the way to the turkish border so that it has, it does not face any threats. and this is something that i'm of the shuttle has also agreed upon that it will be the case. so it is good news for the large parts of this country because as this new administration has been saying its top priority is unity is to hold this country together and make sure that the rep and that it's had been seeing all over the streets all over the country are under one chain of command, so that is good news for them. but again, the question and the large question, which is not just goods concern for this administration, but to p has been, is the as the and we will have to wait and see on why are they not joining this

administration on another note to us um are you are standing by for us at a church. it is of course, christmas eve. what is the mood like where you are? well, this is the historic because they to church, which was billed until the autumn and empire. and people here have been telling us that this is a different christmas and i wouldn't tell you myself, i bought a couple of people here who can speak to us about to drill and, and do you thank you very much for taking the time. you told me that this is a different christmas from what it was last year. explain to our view is why this is miss to see you mean task for see you. because the we was in very difficult situation because of the presence, the show that we don't to with no, there is no the shuttle uh,

what does that the whole to become a new fence country as soon as hold on just the beautiful beautiful life. and you, you were telling me that you have the fear and you have explained to us, why do you have sir? and what gives you hope we say yeah, i like to do that to we uh oh, interesting. we met to in the new government, we out. i don't like this. i like to be together to build syria and the new government is how i like syria all the time and more and more and

more and more important from the the other countries. thank you very much and that is the view here. as many people have been coming, actually let me get out of the way so that you can actually see the mass that is happening inside the historic cause. a tune church where people have been gathering god, celebrating with the german people from all the fates. here he met emerson family. i've had actually bringing people in and inviting them into the church. so this is the view from damascus of damascus, where people are celebrating people, they're happy, and the christian community says that they want this area to be a united se, okay. or some of them john hay is reporting from damascus, syria, thank you. the and is really drone strike is at the headquarters of gaza, civil defense. that's the group responsible for emergency services and rescue

operations across the strip. the drones striking garza city shoulder rescue worker along with his son and the group already struggles with a lot of fuel and machinery needed to conduct rescue operations in the rubble following is really bombardments. also in the northeast, one of the last partially functioning hospitals is under renewed results. at least 20 patients and medical staff have been injured by explosions around come out on the run hospital and based law here the director of the hospital war. and that the building sustained damage in that of time because some of the just now one of the explosives planted by the israeli army designated, it caused a shockwave that shot to the hospital doors and windows on the west side. it also ended some of the patient and the very few medical staff left of the hospital, roughly 20 people. they had a 2nd stronger explosion followed. it caused a massive damage to the hospitals, west wing, and more patients were ended. the entire west swings,

doors and windows were all smashed, and the full ceiling collapsed. we talked about them joining us from jayden by the hand central because i taught x. so the civil defense was already overwhelmed and struggling with a lot of fuel and machinery as we've been reporting. what's been the impact of the latest strife on their headquarters? well, uh, yeah, these attacks have made a very remarkable filtering of the abrasions on the ground. and they're made their teams are unable to continue providing essential, essential risk corporations and even to provide the 1st emergency response to cases of destruction that have been reported to them even have been also uh existing in these areas of confrontations. but we know that there has been a very remarkable subject course and traction for that is really mandatory on targeting the main headquarters. we're talking about 14 sentences for gods and

civil defense have been wide open to treated alongside with 66 at viet codes, including fight engine. and i'm sure lenses. but what we see right now is a to a completely diminished, is civil defense, emergency response, and even capabilities on the ground at civil defense was unable to effectively operate in northern casa, where the services of witnessing some sorts of the near total relapse due to the is value repeated attacks on that then based on the ground and the vehicles that have been using for transportation and also on the equipment. and now what we see in the north is that civilians are taking the responsibility on banding together to conduct trust corporations and even to victims of from under the remnants of destroyed houses. and even, for example, during the last hour we have been getting reports coming from northern causes, suggesting the destruction of a 4 story building into a valley as well. it sounds to now civilians who are right now in the cycle. the

strike managed to recover the palestinians who have been killed and the number is expected to rise within the coming hours of these civil risk corporations are still taking place on ongoing, on the ground and the value of the product. but he, in the central area, we can say that the civil defense was barely functional and the are also what came under the constant of threats, of being attacked by used by the trends that have a very constant visible existence in the skies. of course, the skies of the central regions and one of the lakes, the strikes that took place within the past hour was exactly as a right refuge account. and it's very true and has dropped the grenades at the gates of one of these actuation centers in northern. and is that right? tricky discount. we have seen impedances rushed to the science of the strike 100 coverage to injuries, including 3 women. one of them is visibly pregnant, and this is the adult career. let's see and do some for one here. course the strip

that the entire gaza strip is subjected to intense minute trip apartments and even rescue operational choked by the ongoing is very restrictive menu on the side with the repeated attacks that have no end in sight. of course the entire goal. distribute factory, tara combined zone reporting from data and by the hand. garza thank you. bethlehem is preparing for the 2nd christmas and the shadow of israel's war on gossum christians believe the city is the birthplace of jesus christ. there will be no large christmas tree in bethlehem's main square and no festive lights. the 4 interest that usually visit the palestinian city are also absence. only religious ceremonies will be held in solidarity with palestinians in garza. i'm afraid that this please most is the ends of terrible periods of darkness. and you're beginning to turn the page start writing and these new page something with the words of hope or future and for 10 needs. because what we need enough with diffusion insiders,

let's fix into that. but i am, she's a journalist. and in bethlehem to tell us how palestinians there are marking this christmas eve of the new city. and as you can see behind me, there's no large christmas tree. no lights, but there are a current to the masses over bethlehem, marking a christmas eve that usually paused sidney and say, all eyes turned to bethlehem on december 24th. people look at the place where it's all started, but this year they feel that they've been left alone by the world as their fellow palestinians to linger under bombardment. they and, and they out to speak more about this. i'm joins, you know, but as of yet a boy eve, he's a researcher and he's an old sort of a book called rooted in palestine. it talks about modern palestinian christians and

as a palestinian and as a passing in christian, could you tell us a bit more how do you compare this year to the previous christmas season? is a pa. busy fine, for me, there is no comparison. we cannot compare these with any other year. we can talk about palestine having $0.03, so excuse me. not sorry, it's on one side, jerusalem, and bubble him. in 1948, we bought a steeple from us right. in 19, now with the occupation we're being steve of jerusalem. and now even palestinians in general and protestant increases in particular from elsewhere in the west bank. i've always, it's coming to back with him because of the set, the thoughts because of the media types of points. there are people that have been waiting on the took points are on bethlehem with for 3 hours. so it's not just by chance, if we don't have people, there is a clear policy from the start your commission to isolate our cities and particularly the birthplace of different crisis. isolates if these from one another and you are, they are in the last year's christmas, a math and this year as well. and you were telling me that you even saw the less

palestinians or attending churches this year. you think that the check points are getting even worse for christmas is itself a cvt that this course we celebrate the method to pull from a christian perspective, but it's also a facility for families. and this place is where we have been gathering for almost 2000 years to sort of varied christmas. we are the oldest christian community or quite an a. so this is happening here in palestine around the conflicts musters our family schedule to meet with each other either because of this really well either because i'll be starting the policy in general because there are rates as low as a separate that were families. today there are more kind of speed increases in exile. so i'm kind of student christians here. they people may be watching this from live on from it, but you have refugee come from my mind from george then from the u. s. most train the people that are roots here, but they cannot come here. no, because of any sort of books and extremism like some people have tried to say. but because of the starting in the occupational part of finding the,

the when we talk about palestinian christians who immigrate, they tell us that the main reason is the continued is radio occupation and the restrictions against palestinians is an officer. and if someone was deep, you, ruth is also in the community. how do you see this the mass exodus? let's say that the pos to me and the people leaving their homes, that i would also like to focus on people that are fighting to pay in palestine. now we have now people under a general flight in gaza, 600 kind of thing. and christians left in gaza and they are saying we're here to stay, no matter what's going on around them. i don't want to a month besides what's happening. it's a general side. people have been killed over there. but, but it's a message that we're delivering, we never saw last year that the world would allow for a general flight to take place for another year. and we're now with this very sub cpo, bethlehem every day, a smaller. so the immigration, it's a reality. but there are also people fighting to stay there. also people have been telling thing that you still have controls in the palestinian population,

but history not just our land, lots of our access. and that's a very important point to understand. but if we're fighting to say, we're also waiting for christmas worldwide to support this. thank you so much. the theater. but he didn't, i want to quote something of what you said, you know, today we are talking about more christians outside of palestine, then they are inside. and it is as many would tell us because of the restrictions and the policies of these radio occupation, many people have been speaking to today say that christmas is all about hope and the fear that this whole is fading away. okay. and that the him a speaking of us from bethlehem, thank to still ahead on algae 0. a call to shut down was i'm b protest or is are back on the streets after a top court confirmed the results of a disputed presidential election. the

in depth analysis of the days headlines. what are we supposed to read painting through the game. so 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, life cop, 29, and others make a difference on how to 0 home counseling. the cost of global trade is transforming foot wide. how will the move for the goods across the board as be we shaped in the future, to terrace hikes on to the 2nd, the trump administration sponsored international trade will include technology play, a role in restructuring supply chains, counting the cost on i will just be around a meeting of minds unless we do deeper and ask people questions of what spanish stations of identity and social

ideals of life, we're going to always have the same model architects and may have valley and iowa 100 ravenna talked to. we may contribute us all good things to create conditions, to the level of the fields. because indian cities are shortcuts, thoughts of quality studios be unscripted analogies, era the the again, this web stories on how to 0, a serious and it was ministration, says arms opposition groups have agreed to dispatch and form one army. from other sutter says, the factions will join forces under the ministry of defense is where the forces hit the headquarters of casa civil defense, killing a rescue worker. along with his son,

the civil defense plays of fights with roland garza leading emergency and rescue operations across the strip. and one of the last partially functioning hospitals under renewed assault and garza's, or at least 20 patients and medical staff have been injured by exclusions around come out on one hospital in basic not. yeah. so with syria enters a new era, wonder if it's most ancient cities is embracing the change. palmera is the unesco world heritage sites, but it's also a strategic location seized by iso fighters in 2015 and partially destroyed. it was later recaptured by the syrian army. the new with ministration is now reinforcing its presence in palmera. how much vol reports from palmera, of all the city and governments have been facing a high value on these treasures. they wanted this place to be safe. actually, this is

a place that has 5000 years of history. this was the size of the an uptake them to the kingdom of queens and know before it was invaded by the romans. so i mean, it has the same value probably even economically speaking as oil or any other treasure to the country has one of the source. that's why there is a huge importance uh, based on this, based on the government. the new government is a very much aware of that the visibility of their pets than of, of the army units here is much more than anything we saw along the road from damascus to displace. so basically, uh, pardon me. uh is oh so you know, so typically located in the center york is only about a 100 kilometers from where i stand here. uh, the place is of control of the uh, see the democratic forces also they need a space is only 200 kilometers from here at the know that almost everyone, everyone of those boxes, once or countries one to have access to the space, if they can particularly the, the city and functions,

the city democratic forces stikes to push to was this based on they were, they were prevented just they all tool before the form of the shape of the shot as it is really troops of storm baton or beach, 40 east of knob less and they occupied westbank and are conducting raids and the to cut them refugee camp and bait for the soldiers stopped ambulances and search them before reading one of the medical centers. and at least 3 palestinians, including a woman, had been killed and the assault on to cut him from this one who was host more from online. or at least 2 palestinians have been killed. values really forces on a raid in the occupied westbank city of to come in and the new to sions refuge account. residents say it's started overnight when it's really forces came in with bulldozers tearing up roads and other critical infrastructure leading to the city. and it's refugee camp. now, local medical officials are saying that they're having a hard time evacuating those who been injured and killed that because these really army is blocking off roads. this is

a theme we have been seeing over the last 14 months since these really military stepped up. it's res, across the occupied west bank, but elsewhere in the palestinian territory, the palestinian authority is actually conducting its own rates in jeanine, or at least 7 palestinians has been killed in the last 2 weeks. the fighters engineer and say that they are not going to lit up against the p a. and the p a itself says it wants to crack down on armed resistance fighters and places like nablus. and you need to send who does eat on a month. there has been a powerful blast that an explosives factory answer key. it happens in the north western city of la casita, or at least 12 people have been killed. 5 others are injured. a section of the factory has collapsed, according to local officials, emergency services are on the scene. so of course the roku has this update from his stumble. this is one of the probably most fatal, a last the intricate in defense industry. a complex is within the last couple of

years. this is a huge industrial complex word. the. there are more than $650.00 workers actually are employed. and according to the initial reports and initial information given by the office shows this explosion occurred in just one building inside that facility, which it was actually a place where they produced bill it's cap sales. the officials are being to asked about whether there are people trapped inside some part of this building where they produce the bullets capsules have collapse, apparently due to the electricity in the powers. it cuts after the explosion and they are not able to identify the a id card readings at the entrance about the initial information given by the people in charge is that there is no one left under the collapse part of the

building. there was no one trapped, there's a huge rescue team out there. the turkish disaster management agency, the firefighters, the rescue groups are there and the prosecutor launched an investigation that the governor said they currently ruled out the risk of sabotage. and uh, that's why if it now currently they are working on the possible reasons that's good . i've left to such a big explosion. you went back to hunger monitoring groups, as famine has spread across through dawn, with refugee camps and displaced communities. hardest hits. the integrated food security phase classification has detected simon and at least 5 areas. it says 5 additional areas will face famine between december this year and may next year. according to the group, the 20 months conflict between the sudanese army and the parent military rapids support forces has displaced a quarter of the population for the officer center mozambique is calling on

supporters to shut down the country. that's off to the top court issue to really on monday, confirming the governing parties when in october's contested presidential election . the opposition has disputed the result saying that vote was riggs harem, which also has more from the pluto really hard to move around to my poor to and part of the reason uh, things like that, that fire and all that black smoke, that is a road block pro chases, have been burning, ties and blocking roads is a, this is a way of shutting down mozambique. this is the road to the airport. and if you manage to get past that drug block, there are several others until you reach the airport. the way you plan to go added several of these real brows. you get the young man who are now starting to ask most of us to give them some money or they won't let them toss. is you refuse to give them money? they sometimes stone your vehicle. so while these protests may have started,

or if you miss me about the election is out, it seems some elements have come in and tried to instill trace them. that says um people though are saying that those who are genuine here to protest are saying that they are here because they are tired of years of corruption and unemployment here in mos on beach. and we've heard from the presidency, let daniel chapel, and he's a unit. he's called for these people to have a. com. and he says once he's sworn in as president in january, he'll work very hard to unite the entire country. the main opposition, even more atlanta, is still pulling on his quotations to take to the slick. so who, who knows how the day is? well, $10.00. but as far as we know, we'll see protests here and they, it's rod various parts of the pool. so and other parts of the country as well. all american airlines, i've heard a brief technical outage on tuesday, the ground at all. it's flights in the us for about an hour. that problem happens in the middle of the busy christmas holiday travel season and a post on x and i will sing the resumption of flights. american airlines describe
