going to continue these measures no matter how long it takes. okay. i have the son who is reporting from armand jordan. thank to of the is really military has once again launched air attacks on northern gauze as last partially functioning, hospital and air striking near the medical facility and its a big smoke billowing into the air. the hospital has been repeatedly targeted by is really for assistance. the siege and the north began about 3 months ago, aiden medical supplies have been cut off severely limiting its ability to treat injury. the palestinians will go to central garza hands with fidelity standing by for us and dated by the hands. what are you hearing about the situation and the northern part of this trip right now? well, we just received the statesman from dr. december, sophia, and he's the director of the hospital. he's set up last night with one of the most difficult knights and command at one end of the surrounding area where the is ready

for says approximately 10 robot bombs were didn't do not aged. but it's not only that. there has been a lot of incidents in the past couple of weeks, especially in commodities one and in the area surrounding where are the year to date 2 incidents happen? where one woman was killed by a drone, where the see what, what does she was need to minus one and the drone out fired to strike and killed her. and there was another incident where another man has been killed by a watch cops or where the plots comforter dropped a grenade at the gates of one. but not only that, the fact that there are no, no one is being able to retrieve their bodies, no one is being able to transfer those who have been killed or shots around noon come on. i was inside the hospital and also the fact that people are on able to very those kind of thing is the, are being killed every single day. 5 is really forces in the, another,

in gauze through we know in the past couple of hours that there was a building a jason to come on. it was that was targeted. we know so that there are people inside this building, but no one is able to reach the area because there's no sort of defense seams. and also the fact that there and then is really watch hopped or targeting in choosing any palestinian who tries to go and rescue or to stay as a live of any of those products. and you, the footage of the surroundings of my dad, one is actually the shop. can you either see a house is completely collapsed to the ground or you'd see houses completely burned and becoming on livable for policy news. but also the situation is very hard. we're talking about more than 18 days of a complete seeds on basically i have a tenuous big guy here with no food watch or aids or medical supplies have been received to that area. okay,

thank you. and then for the reporting from dated by in central gaza the, the movie camp used to be home to the largest palestinian refugee population in syria. much of it is now in ruins on some palestinians are worried that their plates might not be high on the agenda of a new governments facing many challenges. but despite those concerns, some palestinians are coming back or some of in job aid reports from the move camp . scraping the suit from a boat out whole may seem like a daunting task. but for people returning after a long exile, it's simply a necessity. so this engineer does not want us to identify him speak with my recognize him doing manual labor. he says syrians are power people,

and they dignity and perseverance are inc declined. so to our palestinians, according to the residents of the boot camp, which is home to both established in 1957, the small city was home to more than half a 1000000 syrians, the largest kind of city and refugee community in the country. this image meant by those nearly a decade ago when suffering here was described as worse than that because it after years of bombardment by your thoughts forces, most people are gone. walls are peppered with the tools and concrete stairwells seem designed by a trip. 4040 years old. mamma doesn't remember you to move this way. she used to go to school here, take part in drummond on festivities. and last but there's probably, she doesn't know much about politics, but says the shuttle aside light when he said he was pro palestinian and the i'm from all name

a and my husband was from hyphen in palestine. abdul got their mosque was targeted during the bombing, and my husband was killed on his way home. the streets were filled with bodies. people were terrified and it was the most horrifying experience of my life. in my opinion, our moot camp was the finest area in syria. i've spent my entire life and you are moving and it stated my heart, even during displacement. i can't imagine living anywhere else, even though my husband was killed to. i will remain but remaining here isn't easy, and there's no water or electricity as most infrastructure has been destroyed, as i'm sitting in what used to be someone's hold. people coming back to the move comp will have to deal with destruction like this and to be able to convert this into living quarters like that is going to require time and patience and resources and keys again. with that so many challenges facing emma,

the shut off government palestinians are concerned about being neglected, featured on the cell and due to poor health care. she can no longer walk or farther one's government help, but doesn't door who to turn to the somebody's family has been displaced from is really occupied going on. and i also receive bed. he's still hopes things will change and the city is new rulers. my 100 to come by, but of that and i lost my shop which was our primary source of income. now i work for others. the situation is on the barrel. some schools are functioning and people here are getting used to the new reality. but there are limited prospects for young people since december, the only a few families have come here. many others want to, but like much of devastated syria that isn't much left to return to. so i'm, i'm a job identity to get moved for a few decals, damascus. okay, and well, now bringing us on a been job aid once again, joining us from the syrian capital to him. ask us to look at the wider picture

assignment and tell us about the security challenges that the country is facing and how the administration is dealing with them. of the. well, you've seen the demonstrations that have been happening in the last 24 hours and the often month of the. ready demonstrations with thousands of security personnel and have been sent to various pods, 2 homes to a level 2 laptop a to talk to us where they are going to now impose a curfew. they're going to go and go off with those elements of which were involved in those clashes with the security forces. and as you mentioned, divide the picture. it goes to show how delicate this balance is. as this a few weeks old government have to maintain, not just internally, but extend leave with other powers as been. so it has said that it is going to be the paramount priority to make sure that this competes stays united. the fabric of the society which has been divided for so many years, remains intact,

and it wants to ensure that the life and property of people to secure so in the last 48 hours, you heard in statements from iran, which was seen as incitement by this government, and today you've seen more activity on the diplomatic front with a government close to it there on. i'm now trying to close to be serious, iraq, these were as well to try and venture all of these gaps. but as you can imagine, that this is going to take time and didn't really require patients on the body to people. and also understanding on the bottom internationally active. because these people who are now taking charge who used to be a fighting force, i know a governing body, and they say that they are going to do whatever it takes to make sure that figure out what it means. united and the room and government according to the aspirations of the city and people. okay. that's i'm, i've been driving. thank you for that update from damascus here. yeah. marco, which is, he knows that geo political analysts and director of global strategy project. and

he says, for the new administration and syria to succeed, it will need to carefully balance the interest of 4 and countries as security. as keith we've ended, i think the current term government issued us transitional government. it's honeymoon period is over. okay, we're entering a new phase of uncertainty and that new face that the entire government is facing up to the challenges of establishing political, political order internally. and also the secure 30 factor, which also involves diplomatic the foreign players, the parts of the country that i would say most it's critical right now is the northeast of the country, particularly we have the syrian national army against the us back. i see we're in the democratic forces and those, the areas with the central government does not control. and it's largely one part being charged back. the other part b, us back the a foreign powers pursuing their own interest inside syria and in the area where the

government doesn't control. obviously you also have these, so i'll make state factor, and then you have remnants of the former regime of the form ross on regime in different parts in the western part of the countries, particularly in the coastal regions. but i would say the most complicated one right now wasn't the ne, the country because in the northeast also is we have the oil fields. and it's important that in order to finance reconstruction, you will need access to funds from those oil fields eventually. and then also the fact that when you talk about that turkish us element side, the diplomatic element would form palace pursuing their own interest in order for the transitional government to get off the terrell list and to have sanctions lifted in to finance its reconstruction. it needs to play a play, a very capital game with external powers. still ahead on algebra 0. israel target's palestinian journalist and the gaza strip again. at least 5 are killed

with very clearly marked vehicle is hits in an attract the the, there is going to be yet more rain in some vietnam and it continues in east, in the vietnam. however, for some time the readings not as heavy that we shouldn't be there. and introducing the lazy, localize shells, right, make calls and use syncing called up at the see much as much drive. and it was including invited to actually the heaviest, right, and sees more likely to be in the philippines and possibly in java. now if you follow the winter front up, that's it. the, the snow that's coming across to see if your part of the next couple days is really potentially quite tremendous. so i suspect, believe it will be reports in places they will be disruption because of the snow. it's only for japan everywhere else behind it. the air is cold immensely, but mostly sunny and quiet. and the snow doesn't get across the high drying to type

here, but the windows you'll have a cold feeling window, very strong. one on the sides of a dying dime started the time you get to monday. wind is not the story really. in india, we've got more channels coming into the south china, across to bangalore to possibly even reaching carol. but this is an interesting thing to look at this thing to refund the storms or even persistent right in stretching up to the gotten genetic play. and you'd think fine to improve a quality sampling, it hasn't done so it doesn't look like it will do folk or small return by sunday the to. but nature's biological rhythms heat, the percentage ultimate but this is not to, it's countless kilowatts of ality official light, allowing industrialized agriculture defies seasonal and geographic constrains

witness shed slice on the impact of emerging cultivation on the natural world to which we even know sleepless bags on tuesday era, the top stories on how to 0 this hour. at least 3 people have been killed and is really or strikes one on human according to local media. israel has the airport and humans capitol center, as well as the ford city of data. energy infrastructure was reportedly also attacked, syria and security forces for reinforcing their presidency. several cities following and its prospect killed. 14 police officers,

and 13 that happens is demonstrations. took place over an age video showing an allied shrine being just created. these really been the 3 is once again launched air attacks on northern gauze. those last partially functioning hospital elsewhere, and more than 30 pounds indians have been killed in attacks across the strip. the funerals have been held for 5 journalists. targeted in is where they are striking on central gaza. the group are sleeping in a satellite broadcasting van that was clearly marked as a press vehicle. israel's military claims that had links to what it's called a quote carousel. inside the say, dodge refugee, can honeywell hotels more from dayton about off where the funeral took place to this to? i'm going it's very goes just pulled up in the courtyard of a lot. so hospital transferring the bodies of the 5 journalists were killed in past midnight in a jerome is of inside their satellite of broadcasting van parked outside the

hospital. this the top right here, highlight the danger and the rest journalists are taking most of the time, covering these really atrocities the gathering here. this crowd inside the house with a mid of journalist colleagues and from the community who knew the 5 journals do work with them. to work their colleagues at some point they cooperated with them. they knew exactly what they were doing outside the hospital. one of the journalists, as we had that had been confirmed by an eye witness and a family member, was outside the hospital. just an hour before the attack happened, celebrating the news that his wife was inside the house could have given birth. his 1st born son, an hour later who is killed inside the van. these are not the 1st time we're seen delivered a tax on journalist happening this way. it's in fact there at least 200 journalists so far i've been killed deliberately,

as the word continues for the past 14 months. there's so much agony and sadness right now. the bodies are being loaded into the ambulance once again and taken to a burial inside is the these crying mother isn't collab father's recalling last moments with their sons as of last night talking to them and making plans them to see them to the next day. one of them congratulating his funds for waiting for the sun, for his grandson, that was going to be to be born in the hospital. but as you see, this has turned into much of it a tragedy where everyone will. so here's the frustration and the younger at people . here's this cry, there. what happened to them was the love red steward killed because they were telling the truth because they were documenting that process and submitted by this really monetary but it's all up for assistance. this is not going to stop,

they will continue this 5 z as positive isaac telling. and despite all the miserable situations and conditioning created for journalist, they will not stop telling the truth, honey, my hood, i was here from the hospital and the bus to the house is not the same as dooley is the assistant general secretary for the national union of journalists and the u. k . and ireland, he says, israel is blatantly attacking during the lessons to be any day. and indeed the international federation of journalists has gone. precious i used is rare for its attitude to towards journalists, and there has been an attempt to silence jarvis at the context here is that, as it has been stated, is that journalists are not allowed to go in with their for a really rely on the courage and commitment of punish, skinny and jarvis working in the most difficult circumstances at to try to break. so it was

a barrier and to tell the truth and what we have seen. we'll find you all committed journalist, one of whom became a father just i think maybe less than 2 hours before his death. and we have seen them just smoked out in a war on suit and issues your profile and the pricing at to a paint at one stage. there are talks of a cease fire, however difficult they may be quite similar. can you see a clearly marked marked media and the, you know, i'll be, i'll be guilty of, of this is attacked in this way by idea. and israel has claimed that there were carrying out and attack on is m. j had visit milligan's book. there was no evidence whatsoever to support this, or russia is warning against promoting what it calls hypotheses about what caused wednesday's crash if and as are based on an airline. 38 people were killed when

that plan went down well on route to the russian city of crosby. a national day of mourning was held and as of age on today, as investigation into the cause of the disaster begins and wrong con reports. i mean, it silence turns into a day of morning and as a buyer's on the whole country has observed it. the mid sized passage jet operated by as a, by john headlines left the capital bike, who heading for girls me in chechnya. but around 2 and a half hours later, a crash to act, to add ports and causing stone. these areas slower to use for the open an investigation set up. the reasons for the crash are not yet known to us. there are various theories, but i believe it is premature to discuss with them. the matter must be thoroughly investigated. a criminal case has been launched by the prosecutor general's office . this time as your video shows the plain coming into land, but at high speed and with

a steep angle of approach. gps flight monitor showed yeah, crafted frequently climbed undefended during its flight. and it was initially reported to been hit by buds or to strike, but nothing has been confirmed. however, some aviation experts say file will play, cannot be ruled out. all the who might be responsible is already contested. some say it was russia of the say ukrainian drones may be responsible. let's focus, let's, uh, get a sample of this point. but as for the vision regarding the use of the defense systems from russian territory, it should be noted that indeed during the morning of the 25th of december at woodrow and attacks from the criminal states against the russian territory on an airfield and civilian infrastructure. this video shows you inside of the aircraft. as his pilots prepare to make an emergency landing minutes late to a crashes. emergency services raised the same,

and people who survived along with the bodies of the dead, are pulled from the wreckage forces. russia has also st. rescue work is inc, has ex donnie officials say nationals from as a by john rush that cause x on care gets done. rumbled family members, desperately salt information about the loved ones at the local hospital, the sound of the cell. and there was some relief for those who discovered that they were alive. well, the piece that we had on tv that the pain had crashed. they said that people died just forgot i sort of survived. the sight of the crash is now a crime scene. investigators from aircraft and manufacture ambria and international experts of studying old of it to find nonsense and wrong count. how does that? okay, let's keep mackey who's an aircraft accident investigation and aviation consultant joining us now from florida by skype. thanks for your time. so obviously the investigation is still ongoing, but what does the footage of the crash or the perhaps the pattern of damage of that

air of craft indicate to you what may have happened? well, we're going to learn a great deal as we commence our investigation. they've already recovered what we call the blank boxes. these are the flight recorder and the cockpit voice recorder . so we can play back in a conversation amongst the crew members will learn a lot from that. it appears that there are bullet holes through the airplane. there's, i think a 112 of them have been counted holes that resemble rocket or bowed strikes. and that, of course, with down the aircraft. if that was the cause, the original speculation was that it was actually the bird strikes. but birds don't fly into the airplanes are as always, so i think we can rule out a while now. what we will do is uh the similar investigation of what was done with malaysians by 17,

which were shot down over ukraine in 2014. and it was a similar situation where no one knew exactly what had happened. but in the course of the investigation, they were able to determine not only the caliber and the make of the ammunition that was used, the sort of doubt, but the angle of each shot. and such a regard that they were able to pinpoint the location on the ground for which the rocket some bullets came. and they were even able to identify the person that gave the water to fire and the shots. so hopefully we'll have something if that turns out to be the case similar to that, then this crash you what's um, sort of history does as are based on airlines have, or this particular type of aircraft as well. this particular aircraft is use worldwide is made in brazil, and this computer type aircraft. i would thing website because the 2 passengers on

board, it was pretty well settled out. it has to turbo prop engines. that's a very good airplane, is very widely used. there's nothing striking about it that would cause a crash and that's the sort. so that's why the investigation will be important. and really when, if i always say until the investigation of this complaint is really speculation, right? that's just, that's, i mean, we don't really want to get into the realm of speculation, but how do you think the investigation is being handled so far? well, it remains to be say, what should happen is that the representatives of ambrey are the main, the aircraft, the cars that can stand aviation authority, and the airline will be parties as well as the russian. since they are ralph was going the dog's name, which was a russian city, and uh,

the trustworthy insect shall be able to participate. and this investigation is not going to be a quote. one is probably know, taking a couple years before we have our results. what makes you for giving me just a final brief thought from you, what, what makes you say it'll take a couple of years as they'll be a lot of, uh, uh, investigation engineering wise as to what could possibly have happened built unfortunately, they'll be politics involved in it, this is going to be a very sensitive subject. the actual investigation will take some time physically, not only examining the wreckage, but also the flight path. so the events that took place, the topic voice recorders, could these be done corner, they probably. ready good, but historically, within the air blind acts of like this, the types of period of time before we get results. okay, we'll leave it there. keith mackie, aircraft accidents, investigation and evasion, consulting. thanks for speaking to us from florida. you're very welcome. well the
