and the the, [000:00:00;00] the, you're watching the news, our life or my headquarters in delphi and teddy. you navigate the coming up in the next 60 minutes. armed functions across syria agreed to nights under the ministry of defense,

part of the new administration was restructuring the christians of the cities and syria celebrates the 1st christmas mass. since the fall of the stopper is really dro strikes target. the headquarters of draws us civil defense, killing 4 people with no let up in a siege up in north the u. n's, hunger monitoring, roof warns that it has detected regions of some done. let's face in minutes from the off. is this what the most of the calls for nationwide protocol, software or high court confirmed the governing part is when in october disputed election. the welcome to the news, our serious new administration has shown its 1st major sign of unity. after armed

factions reached an agreement to disband, its leader from inside s. as 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 curtis floods and us back syrian democratic force is not part of that deal. the arm group has been in conflict with the turkish back syria national army in north eastern syria. meanwhile, christians have been holding mass and celebrations and parts of syria ahead of christmas day. then you would ministration has promised minority groups will be protected in the country. that's across the us all have been job aids whose life for us from the syrian capital, damascus to tell us more about the statements on the factions, which will be joining the new military or some when it is a real, to move from

a lot of these people who we've been speaking to in the last few days, who say that they are, they want to be part of a unified chain of come on, especially the fighters in the north because they feel that a so syria which can only be united under one unified change of commodities announcement, dr. meeting with i'm of the shut off of various functions we saw in the last 24 hours, multiple functions individually meeting him. and now this one, the grand meeting in which it was decided that all of these functions would come under one umbrella of the shuttle has already declared that the only groups frequently allowed to carry on should be the ones which come under this unified chain of somebody it is worth noting that certain democratic forces, the kurdish, cuz they fight is backed by the united states in the northwest are not part of this the we still haven't heard in an explanation from them. why they don't want to be part of this unified chain of command, but we've heard from the key and we've heard forever. the shuttle has been that even in the northwest, the only people who will be under this a minute the ministry of defense will be able to carry the rep. and then there's

a lot of concern in the kurdish communities because there's, there seems to be some gearing up of forces. the rest of the euphrates river ends in combining it and the love i've been, it's don't care. the turkey might use force against these groups, which it called stairs, but a bulk of move for most parts of the country. because this is what this administration has been. think wants to do a unified chain of command, a united city, a city a for all to speak. and where you are, you're speaking to us from a church and damascus. were christians are celebrating christmas eve. what is the means like that? but it is been a day of celebration. anything of separation rather be saw, the mass said the rich of uh we saw people from all over as damascus gather here at the state. doing church, which is built during the and then fast and be thinking of speaking to people about hopes and dreams and fears. and they feel that this is

a new christmas for them because they're under this administration, which does not for them on the 5th. uh with us to discuss it is i'm gonna try writing trying who is the one of the members who attended boss. how was it different from other christmas eve that you attended here at the started church actually this evening. so bringing the bar of jesus please. in music on church, he and the things he's going to rim. and the of the things these come, we are not afraid the full, its own as a condition was living hearing discounts. we how is it different? how was it different from last year? uh, there shouldn't be anything new on the most. we don't any program. we don't do anything . so there is a, i think we are looking for new future and you see now and those things are be okay, as we go, i've been speaking to somebody and young people here who tells me that they have at home. but they also have fear about what will happen to minorities such as

christians in this country. i think no, i'm not afraid to, for a to own. and we are looking to, to have that the piece is syria, as we do easily. so going forward, what is this area that look for you? the figure that should have looked like uh, under this new administration, the student must leave knowing fees without any programs. so we hope we hope always, and i think we are very close to, to be in the bees and good evening everybody together instead of working together or the union and the festival. if you were speaking to the people who are in charge now, what will you tell them? don't be afraid. the adult must own instead of bates or the events. there is no program that's on a studio room. jane. thank you very much. sure, thank you. this is the, this is what more or less what we've been hearing from people because as the hit that he was shot and fighters have taken over this country,

there was some concern. but fortunately happened to the minorities of this country . and we've heard from the leadership time and again that they want to have a united city of it. all the syrians from all shades of life, from all walks from all the sections from on sex and religions are represented leading up to this church. there's a lot of security which is being provided by have beggars from the group that has been charged out. and they see that they want to see the serial living piece. and they want to have a united country with all of its syrians, all of its people are free to express how they feel and how they want to send it. okay, some of and drive and report it from damascus, syria. thank you. so let's take a closer look at the groups that are part of this new deal. there's hey, up to date, and she plays a central role in syria's new with ministration. after leading the offensive, the top of the government, the syrian national army, back by turkey. this group operates mainly in the north and has a lot of influence and circus controlled areas,

free syrian army back by the us. this group is based in turn off and operates in the syrian deserts. the 8th brigade of the 5th corps is made up of a group of ex rebels in southern syria, working in collaboration with russia. the syrian front is a coalition of moderate opposition groups united to oppose what they consider extremist factions. ization is them once controlled, eastern hoops on year, damascus. it's known for its strict ideology and military strength. but not everyone is on board. the curtis lead and us back syrian democratic forces, which control eastern syria have not joined the steel, rob guy spin folders, lecture and peace and security at durham university. he says that the deal aims to create a unified army representing syria as diverse ethnic and religious groups. and i think this deal is actually an attempt to put pressure on the staff. now we often speak of the as the, as a courtesy stroop. that's not technically true,

valid code is dominated group, but there are actually more out vices. for example of yes, the f, then they're all could each fight is i took, the main issue is not with the sds per se, but with the y p g, a different subdivision of the sds, which they see is basically the same thing as the p k. k, at which i consider of course a terrorist organization. so i think this is an attempt to get defections from dc. those are of units within the the now remember the time such as mount paige danner, i was old. those were formerly s the facility ages, but they slipped not because of a particular fighting or offensive, but mainly because the, our as the affiliation groups that switched and placed that loyalty to aged yet. so i think this is an attempt to cut down the sds territory without actually officially or practically go to war against the staff. and on the other hand is

also important for syria because it needs to actually have one army representing many different ethnic groups. religious groups and then for us, the demo as you say, is very much in the detail because we'll have to see exactly how, what to what extent of these groups will be integrated. whether hedge diaz can do it without actually creating so much tension. a bureau to bureaucratic and basically resistance that these groups will resist that challenge with the same. so i know being so hands off that these groups remain autonomous. but on the government's pay you the u. s. military has kill 2, i saw fighters and airstrikes in eastern syria as part of its ongoing efforts to eliminate the group entirely. the group had a wider presence in syria, seizing and partially destroying parts of the ancient city of palmera and 2015. it's a strategical location as a unesco world heritage site, which was later recaptured by the syrian army. how much all reports from palmera,

as 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 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 that to the country has one of the source. that's why there is a huge importance. uh, based on this, based on the government, then you will go from that is a very much aware of that. the visibility of the person of, of the army unit is much more than anything we saw along the road from damascus to displace. so basically, uh, probably, mira is also, 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. and they know that almost everyone. everyone of those boxes, once or countries want to have access to the space. if they kind of particularly the, the city and functions, the city, democratic forces side to push to was this based on they were, they were prevented just they all tool before the form of the shape of the shuttle is that the face of tens of thousands of prisoners and missing people from syria, civil war remains on known between 20112024 more than half a 1000000 people were killed. the syrian network for human rights believes another 150 thousands are missing. in comparison, roughly 40000 people disappeared during the war in bosnia herzegovina. the international commission on missing persons at the hague says there may be as many as 66 mass grave sites in syria rubber petite as the head of the us international impartial and independence mechanism investigating serious crimes in syria. i don't

think any one group can do it alone. i think it should be a concerted efforts between the authorities and civil societies and international organizations such as ours, which are specifically mandated to preserve the evidence and certainly can help with that. some of that evidence has already been lost, some of it through weld, intended families wanting to know what happened to their loved ones, which is a perfectly understandable emotion and an action. but nonetheless, we need that, that evidence to be preserved and as quickly as possible in time is running out. nobody needs to be going in there. uh certainly, you know, not media, not, not anybody. it should be uh, preserved, sealed, and secured. and then a plan should be put into into the, into, into effect, to how to have the right uh, interveners come in and preserve the evidence. first of all, assess the the, the issue and preserve the evidence. we are mandated by the us of the general

assembly of the united nations to do just that. i've expressed to the care degree with are, these are our desire to come back. i formally requested access and we are waiting to get a response from them to quickly deployed and start assisting on this project. the and is really drawn. strike is hit the headquarters of gaza civil defense, the group responsible for emergency services and rescue operations across the strip . it's, it's really striking. garza city killed a member of the civil defense along with his son. the group already struggles with a lot of fuel and machinery needed to conduct rescue operations in the rubble following is really bombardments. but of human honey is off the scene. so i'm right now stand at the, at the entrance of the headquarters of civil defense in the gaza strip,

where these were easy rows of progress of say that this is members, 30, this members have been killed and one critically injured. by this, we can see here the blood spilled on the ground. you see the shrapnel on the wall here. this is this little bit as target in this place. and i get to determine, we received an imagined distress message quoting for help to extinguish a fire that broke out on the results of funds that are you the strike on the residential building. we rushed to the scene simply to fulfill ownership on the way we received a call pending us gotten the site we were heading to, i've just been pounded again. we went on the phone doesn't scale, including our federal civil defense team members and shred it to pieces. this was targeted for the 2nd time in the role we're doing going is where you targeted. similarly, just cruise the situation is getting much more desire was most of them use being

targeted. they need to the to services, but now which is getting much more value in the life of a snack in target in these suited defense rules. the live servers who wish to the civilians lives brain. so you need a 0 and only thing causal. how does fine also in the norris, one of the last partially functioning hospitals is under renewed assaults. at least 20 patients on medical staff have been injured by explosions around the combined online hospital. and basically i am the director of the hospital warren that the building sustained damage in the time the because this is the outside of the just now one of the explosives planted by these really on the designated it caused the 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 at the hospital,

roughly 20 people with that. a 2nd stronger explosion followed. it caused a massive damage to the hospitalized west wing and more patients waiting, just the entire west swings, doors and windows, what old smashed and the full scene and collapsed as early forces have had a 4 story building in japan. yeah. in gauze as norris taught, a couple of zoom has more from the latest strikes, from dated by it has been a very 10 sought since the early hours of this morning is of course, different locations in district 5 during the past and recent hours the has been a very notable surge of attacks on and is it right for to, to count what reports coming from allowed the hospitals suggesting that these valley 12 and had talked to grenades in one of the gates of a key evacuation centers in the number of possible values that right, tricity can based on their reports that at least 12 palestinians have been injured, including children, the women move fluids. the reports are coming from northern causal with this area

has been one of the areas that had witnessed some sort of instability for more than a year. so far, well for story building in the valley as well, it town has been slots into the ground. the initial report that we managed to exclusively get is that 4 civilians were killed in the strike. a civilians that have been taking the responsibility to start evacuating and even to both victims from under the remnants of these uh, destroyed eh, buildings and the fluids. so basically the entire strip is still effectively under these violates strikes and to now there is a very constant invisible existence of east valley terms of this kind of the central regions of this trip with no wind inside for that tax on the ground charge of as a very by palestine dam periods, the former chairman of the 4 impressed association of israel, he says, as rules, 2 main goals remain, eradicating us and the release of captives despite attempts by the far right to go

further. now in pursuit of these 2 goals, which i think are both legitimate, are they, are they committing actions that some of it shouldn't be quite possible quite possible. the argument for ethnic cleansing would involve the idea, the israel's, a subliminal gl. uh would be to render a northern gauze on habitable. so that's, let's do this kind of return. i don't have it is that those are go. but i do know that some far right people. oh my god, and would certainly like uh for um or cause it to pay a territorial price in as a consequence of having basically wage war on israel and in those barbaric fashion possible. on october suns, there is a not, not ridiculous idea that it is really, is a buffer zone inside gone to protect you any further of a button. but then of course,

cause is so small that it seems impractical. i think i think i hope the cooler has will prevail and what will emerge from what isn't ultimately a nightmare is for gaza to be led to by force that israel does look fear. and therefore such, such thoughts disappear because because as long as i say that it's not a good way for it most guarantees, more cost about a 3rd of the of the governing coalition really does want is they want to restore us, which is they want permanent occupation that's a yahoo! i don't think does, but they did bring down the government him because he is a maniac who assists unclear power. he may be thrown in the bone and at the very least prolonging a war in order to cut off the issue. because if he were to end the war, done his government, a new report by a un back monitoring group is warning,

the famine has spread across so done. according to the i p. c, the conflict has worse ends on already dire situation. with more than $24000000.00 people in urgent need of food age, the group says it's protected famine and at least 5 areas on projects and projects rather that 5 additional areas will face famine between december 2024 and may 2025 . when the conflict started 20 months ago has displaced more than 11 and a half 1000000 people. that's 25 percent of 2 jobs population will now speak to justin lynch was a lead analyst at this with don conflict observatory. joining us from nairobi. justin lynch. welcome back. to alger 0, how alarming is this escalation of hunger and malnutrition during what's typically the harvest season? and so dawn, when food availability should be at its highest you know, i figure it's incredibly alarming. and your, i guess is really, you know, i'm shocking. sedan used to be a bread basket, not only for east africa,

but for countries in the middle east. could you a um, you know, other cartridge isn't the goal and i think forth through day i'm going to be facing a fan and as it is right now, it really kind of speaks to the horrible nature of the civil war has been going on over the past year and a half plus and so i, some of these numbers are extremely devastating and, and that is really shocking human rights experts working for the you and had said back on june the 26 the both sides in the war are using starvation as a weapon a for how much worst hasn't gotten since then? do you think of a yeah, i think what's really happening is that both sides are using hunger as to what happened of war. that kind of logic is that if they allow food into parts that gave us control by the opposition or controlled by the army. and then they do that as a waiting for that other side. and so what you see that what assume use on forces.

they're not allowed of food to entering the into door for them. emails that they need to and just email it. also with rep support forces where all of the areas where there has been declared by examine and where the project examines are under their control as well. and they are not allowing food aid into those areas that are really under the but they're not relations. who are um, who is the part the other side, support the army tom. so there's kind of a strategic, this horrible logic that both sides are using to try to use this as a weapon of war, which is a violation under international law. but we're really seeing this just in community continue without any stopping right now. and calls for an immediate cessation of hostilities by some international organizations or the willing sides any closer to a cease fire today. you know,

i think that when i speak with both sides, it's really shocking, right? how that can be. so i think detached from the real horrors that you can use that are facing, i speak with many people who are still ensued and pallets, it's hard to listen to the stories. and then it's hard to, um, uh, then have to speak with members of the soonest on, for us as an architect to understand. okay, you know, what is your kind of logic to your, what do you try to gain from this and the disregard that both sides have for the populations is really, really striking. and so i think that and this is a real time for the trash or community and the regional state is that support both sides. i think there's type that those the states that are really held accountable, particularly the d u, a supported rep support forces. and then

a coalition countries support industries onforce including egypt bounds. uh actually why the printer's, what do they need to be doing right now or? well, i think the 1st thing that these regional nations, they just stop doing is arming both sides of the conflict. right. you know, i think that this war is really an international one, and it is fuel by international arms is fueled by goals that are sold on, you know, in, in the goals. and that it is fueling this famine. and that is fueling this bloodshed right now. and so i think that's what's really striking is if there has been no action of the security council and this, this kind of speech is broader prices. so would you see that we're having international law and how do you know after you investigated counsel in general, where there's things up there, there are these proliferation of crises without any real solution. and you know, i think for countries in the west it is very uncomfortable. right. because one of

the main um the backers of the rep support for us is the man backer is the u. a which is a critical ally of the us, right? of, of a cage. and so this is a very uncomfortable conversation that diplomats have to navigate. okay, justin lynch, lead analyst at this to don conflict observatory, so we can just from i roby. thank you. the opposition of mozambique is calling on supporters to shut down the country. and also after the top court issued a ruling on monday, confirming the governing parties. when in october as contest the presidential election, y'all, physician has disputed the results saying that vote was riggs, or metallica has more from us. and so really hard to move around to my pluto 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've managed to get past that road block the several as is until you reach the airport, the way you plan to go added several of these real brows. you get a young man who are now starting to ask most of us to give them some money or they're willing to let them pause if you refuse to give them money. they sometimes stone you. busy vehicle so while these protest we have started off initially about the election is out, it seems some elements have come in and try to infill trade them. that says, people though are saying that those who are genuine here to protest are saying that they are here because they are tired of uh, yes, of corruption and unemployment here in mos on beach. and we've heard from the presidency, let daniel chapel and he's a units. he's called for these people to a. com. and he says, was he 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 days will $10.00. but as far as we know, we'll see protests here and they throughout the various parts of the pool. so in other parts of the country as well, a still a heads on the news, our phase 3 palestinians are killed and is really res, only occupied westbank and medical center is among the targets. plus i'm trying to reach out to the, i'll bring of the latest on rising tension between a valley and costs and the condition of the minorities in bangladesh. the once again, the east administrative provides the most active with the change of season, still locked a storm. this latest won't produce a huge amount of rain in 1st in western turkey and then in the cypress and look at the persistence. this is tuesday. okay?

here is wednesday. it's still reading right on top of the snow from the mountains, but this rain is the pacific, but likely flooding, causing rain. and the same is true when we get to thursday, but it's never really made it into the event. yes, child to briefly or touch 11 and maybe syria, but nothing much else happens. it's suffering took here is the place at risk of yet more flooding. that was, that is going on, but it certainly will. we felt the sand in northern egypt, a sandstone for risk here, but for the event dance with the baby and presents you and the drum. it's sunshine in the sky. the winds aren't particularly strong, attempt has already come down tomorrow. that's where they should be for this time. yeah, so this will change here. you'll notice the shaft to spread across into iraq in northern syria. but that's not a big surprise in africa, just the off of the crate to the roster channels around in uganda. for example and rewind, but they're not particularly big the near to below the same. the real big ones, the showing the self in most i was on be cuz it, by way,

i'm particularly botswana. i'm this northeastern part of south africa the, the latest news as it breaks, the lack of safe zones means that even when b sweating spot issued civilians are effectively trapped with no chance of survival with detailed coverage. somebody watch all kind of lawyer wants to the hospital carrying, so nothing's on blanket as it's officially winter. here from the heart of the story is what your planes have targeted. this school, which is silver and thousands of cal for years, will have been forcibly this place from there is a bit lazy life as you can we are going to see the agencies of legend some clothes and the stories of

civilizations that market history wants. this is where the story of savannah do you have any stories to tell the the the, the top storms and the houses are and these are this really forces at the headquarters of jobs or civil defense killing a rescue worker along with his son, the civil defense plays a vital role in gaza, leading emergency and rescue operations across the strip and is really forces of a 4 story building and giovanni and also towards killingsworth. people. seriously with ministration says, armed opposition groups have agreed to dis,

found and form one army and sutter says the factions will join forces under the ministry of defense. and consumers have been celebrating mass and many parts of syria ahead of christmas say or suffice. were able to carry out full services and damascus on tuesday night. after the promise of protection by the new administration and the occupied westbank, the city of bethlehem was preparing for the 2nd christmas and the shadow of israel's war. on garza the there will be no large christmas tree and bethlehem's main square and no festive lights before enters that usually visit a palestinian city are also absent. only religious ceremonies will be held in solidarity with palestinians in garza earlier the latin patriarchs of jerusalem called for an end to israel's war. on garza,

i'm afraid that this priest must use the hands of terrible periods of darkness. and you're beginning to turn to page start writing these new page, something with the words of hope or future and for 10 needs, because what we need enough with diffusion and silence it. okay, well now, so i send it over to him. she's a journalist joining us from bethlehem to talk us through what people there have been telling you what the, what the mood is like this christmas eve. well during this is the 2nd year in a row that palestinians are not celebrating christmas the way they usually do this is proud the they call it the capital of christmas because they believe that in the church behind me is where it's all started. christmas is celebrated all over the world, but posted in here feel that they've been left out by the world under so much

suffering. you know, we were talking about the effects of the war on economy, but also on tourism. here in bethlehem, a city that depends heavily on us and we have not been seeing foreigners, international is here in the mean, just square since we came, but we run into an ice lun big tourist. mr. ben room there. who's joining us here today, and we'd like to ask you because we've been, you know, wondering around seeing how um the bath lab is, uh, and now we see you, what brings you here. lot of hold upon this thing. i'm gonna say is that's sweet from here. i am my wife fish, and this is for the spirits of christmas for the message of christmas. but to also to be a we have many friends to be with and they have such terrible times as we are

living now. and this city is selected by the emptiness. and in bethlehem it's like a horse. if you wouldn't be no different from us before it is time to be with your friends to stand by them in this time. let them know that we fit your message to them is that people in the world are the some of them care about what's happening to boston is, is that true or not? is something new through nights. and by far that big my to to see in iceland, but i from, from, i think actually, i believe i just, we've seen these demonstrations all over, never, never picked this. none that are bigger. and there's no question about that in my mind that the whole world stands with palestine, maybe not the government's or the military allies like natal or the or the the, the people's do you think that because you've been visiting palestine as you told me for many,

many years do you think that has shaved your view of what's happening here? is it important for people to cross and, and visit palestine? yes, because of course, and that has influenced me a lot. and i haven't gone from this as often you understanding of so many things every day i'm here are also talking with, you know, it has really made some effects. and therefore it says, always be my point to the 15th of to come view the people to the time of year. that is so important. and i even see when they go with it, you said your daughters. so this and that they can, those are voice. yeah. the realities when they're home swanson, with city all it is of occupation they. they, they are in for us, mr. vin. so then you told me that you've been to garza before and now the hospital that you visited and the hospital in gaza is now subjected to all of these

difficult scenes. how was it for you watching that you are coming into a variety of different procedures for me is certainly so that since 1990, i have been visiting palestine and coming to vasa on asi odda, opposed to be something that can, most pits are or factors, was the trust hosp until i came to us last time, 1990. to me that had been a chilling by a 1000030 of understand young versus you know, use on that you on i never reaction by the people you saw it on the days that came into the streets and you have some more of our show angel. and now it's happening again, it has fits on the floor to form. no excess to the same is happening, but then it should know 1000 times mode. but to that, this was already under the then and for me it's, it's not totally out of hospital a to watch the main hospital then,

because people do like to go to sheet by then of course i of also being a law in sci fi. and one of my favorite places for go to has to be giovanni a and that all out of all the hospitals there, which is supposed to be. so it's very important. and the other mode i would mention that there are many that was show we have time for that. thank you. and merry christmas do you we know it's not so mary, here in pa this time, but at least people have been talking a lot about hope. thank you for says veney's and things from iceland to tourist. and we've been speaking to people a lot here and they've been saying that yes, there is so much pain. yes, they are in solidarity and grievance of what's happening to their fellow palestinians is the besieged cause it's true, but they keep reminding us that christmas has a strong message and it's all about who they fear that it's fading away, but they're still clinging to it. okay, thank you so much than that,

but i am joining us from bethlehem in the occupied. westbank is where they troops a storm. the china beach, 40 east of knob, low city, occupied westbank, and have conducted raids in the total cut and refugee camp in bay till the ex soldiers stopped ambulances and search them before reading one of the medical centers and at least 3 palestinians, including a women, have been killed and the assaults onto to cut him. i'm the son who's has more from a man, because all to 0 has bands out is a because israel has bands. i was a 0 from forwarding inside israel and the occupied by spring for at least 2 palestinians have been killed. values really forces on a raid in the occupied westbank city of tooth got in and the new defense refuge account. residents say it 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 raised across the occupied west bank, but elsewhere in the palestinian territory. the palestinian authority is actually conducting its own rates in jeanine, where at least 7 palestinians has been killed in the last 2 weeks. the fighters in janine 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 tons of central jersey to a man. a court in the netherlands has convicted 5 man for their involvement. and last month's violence with is really football fans. the men were found guilty for a range of crimes including inciting violence and the souls. heavy a sentence impose was 6 months in prison. the incidents occurred 2 days after is really fans attacked taxi drivers and transit racial slurs of supporters of

palestine before being attacked themselves or any wrong. the government has listed it to your band on what's up and google play, taking the 1st step towards easing the country strict internet censorship. the decision has been unanimously approved by the cyber space council. iran has some of the toughest internet restrictions in the world. some popular apps like telegram and instagram were banned in 2022 following nationwide protest sparked by the death of mass. i'm in the in custody president, my 3rd position, john who came to power in july, had plans to ease these restrictions as part of his campaign. so hate us are the writer and specialist in a rainy and affair says this is part of the president strategy to open up internet access. any ron and everything today around the supreme costs of cyberspace. and also decision to lift the bands on popular international platforms, including walks up and google play. the decision was mad in a meeting,

attended by uranium presidents message position john, and reportedly was focused on revising yvonne's internet controlling policies. after that, uh, meeting we saw uranian minister for enter information technology and communications that are harsh. i mean, writing on his x account that this is going to be a 1st step to lift the restrictions on the internet. that 1st as that might indicate a sort of broader shift in new raw's policies of controlling and restricting the internet access. and we have to keep in mind that uranian president message because this guy who came to the office earlier this year in july says that it's looking kids looking for. busy or new strategies in this regard, and he's going to be an advocate of lifting bands on the internet. so under this circumstance, be marked respect expects further opening up the internet, especially with respect to the fact that there is

a public dissatisfaction pertaining to the ongoing restrictive. busy overseas in iran, but at the same time the meeting was focused on another aspect which is to support the domestic platforms as well. so it seems that there is a balanced strategy in this regard to both opened up the internet internationally and support the domestic private sector as well. the diplomatic route between bangladesh and india shows no signs of settling down at the height of unrest across bangladesh. in august, the former prime minister shift has seen a fled to new delhi, now caught once india to return has seen up a request by officials in new jelly seemed to have been ignored despite an existing extradition, treaty time for a child's re reports from dhaka, the analysts say entering the of sentiment in band with this existed long before

check has been as far as an add new daily support for years. despite our government's use of force corruption and election fraud. after our removal by student protest earlier this year, writers targeted supporters of her automatic party and in some cases in those leaving another day. in the early days of august, there were numerous texts on homes, temples and hindus, including women which occurred in various area those for him with of all some targeted allow me, lee, and elliptical affiliates, most victims. what ordinary people, the situation has since improved them. the government is now cloud pricing to put some money here, blaine, some media and social media and india for spreading fake news, unfurling tensions, and done mainstream media lay out. but that was largely state level media, not the indian mainstream media. that's sensationalized, but it's such a news without the proper investigation. and that created to shut off. similarly, or media spreads and verified the reports,

especially regarding s condo in late november tension goes father. after him, the monk and bangladesh was arrested for a sedition. restless to protest by him to groups and most of them lawyer was killed in the city of chuck to them. during down the rest of that followed. a week later protested attacked a bond with the should consulate in india as paper of state this spark to maintain the protest across bangladesh. last but it goes, it goes to the events of august, the 5th and beyond. we're mainly political kind of times the best hindus and muslims links to the why me leak were attacked. what i can put the article there tensions eased a political site to try to insight unrest recently for all the people who thankfully, the situation is now stable in does make up nearly 10 percent of burn with this total population of tax on him, new minorities in bangladesh didn't just begin with the fall of check. i've seen a during recent nears acts of land having local political conflict. even

a post on religion on social media have led to attacks on the community. the chief advisors office as reported 138 incidents of violence against minorities this year, most awkward in early august and were largely political during your recent visit to dock of the indian for on 2nd 3 on barn with a she officials promise to is tensions and improve relations. india decides a positive, constructive, and mutually beneficial relationship with bangladesh. we have always seen in the past and we continue to see in the future this relationship as a people centric people oriented relationship. so manual is accused from a prime minister has seen or facing charges of corruption and monitor here is running a misinformation campaign from exile where relations go from. here may depend on india's willingness to expedite or send me a job the, i'll just say the doctor. this high government is looking for investors for an ambitious projects,

a bridge connecting the indian on pacific oceans. the design calls for the d ports and rail link that would connect them. the idea has been discussed for centuries and will likely face many obstacles if it goes a head. tony trying has more from run on a pristine beecham, thailand, southern coast, unspoiled by tourism o trade. but the governments promoting a project that could turn this into one of the busiest trading routes in the world or the land bridge is a project that involves the construction of 2 deep sea pools. one knew the town or for know the other underneath jump on a high speed rail, which shuttle containers between the 2 and the pipeline for the transfer, the oil and gas. and then the by fishing village, the residents are concerned. they know very little about the project, but the local government has told them they'll have to move those without the right

deeds won't get any compensation. if that's what happens is that most of the people here are fishermen. they do traditional fishing with small boats. if the project goes ahead, our traditional life will be gone. everything in our village will disappear. the provincial capital reknown, a bustling board, a town name in uh, is famous mainly for its fish market. the device governor says they're ready to become a center of global trade, and investors from the u. a saudi arabia and china are already showing up. the chinese assessing if this is an opportunity that can connect time these trade and how they can put investment in this project. the idea is known as a new one. the crow is most, has historically been at the center of speculation about the channel linking the indian and pacific oceans. for centuries, thailand has toyed with the idea of using. this was the way that goes up between thailand to me and my to get across to the gulf of thailand,

which edits now was point would only need a canal of about 40 kilometers. but the technical capabilities, the cost and the diplomatic ramifications have always stilton. $94000.00 ships a year passed through the streets of malacca if the land bridge could come full days of that journey. but upset the 2 political balance of the region especially of china, takes an interest tire really rethink, southport through the oceans. and this could be another break through what china us, of course, would not countenance that they would maneuver to offset. and you know, push back against any chinese assertions. so this would be a complicated to, to help with co you question the proposed cost of the land bridge, a trillion us dollars may be enough to sink these ambitious plans. but the dream of joining 2 of the world's oceans through thailand will likely remain tony chung,

a barren desert plateau in the himalayas. using branches, sticks and logs, villages had been building i stupidly named after a cone shaped buddhist monument to access precious water in summer. their julian counterparts are using artificial intelligence, solar energy and satellite internet to improve their technique. but ultimately, it's the force of gravity that supplies water to the stoop, as if someone get a, these hoses, a price quote of 500 meters, a pill up stream with just the difference in altitude that pushes the water to the top of the super, where it comes out as a spray of droplets, a granger to newman, you'll says he's noticed a positive impact clinical. but if you have it's dining of the disappearing for years. so for most folks is i'm condos, all sort of dining to the natural and i'd be that 22 years. it's hope they'll be at
