say drowns, will continue to become more frequent and severe than already told us he hasn't heard of climate science, but he and his neighbors expect more tough times before long. and that would come over at home. it'll be better prepared to keep the sound of these fed the diplomacy overcharged in damascus. high level talks of health to h phone ministers. in the head of the gulf corporation counts the don kerry dumpster. this is out from the hospital in the program. syria is new administration for just close to kaiser ukraine. mix bill what it means for russia's mitchie presence in the country. israel keeps up. it's a tax across the cause. the strength of the family of detained hospital director

feels his immediate release of the us treasury departments accuses chinese state sponsored hackers of stealing documents. permit systems, the 282, searching syria to reject all forms of foreign intervention. as diplomatic efforts continue in the country. since the form of the south regime negotiations to determine the future of serious foreign policy have been on the way ahead of its new governments. how much i'll shut off as meta senior delegation from q 8 along with the head of the gulf corporation council model for guys guys. we reject all forms of forward interventions which will have an impact on serious domestic affairs. the gcc believes that the security and stability of syria is part and parcel of the region, stability and security. our shared efforts will be beneficial to our people and we

remind them that we have been on the side of the syrian people. since the start of the cedar and revolution, 13 years ago, i see how the associate who added the whole world. one of our main objective is to restore peace and harmony among all the art states. and also to speed up serious recovery and provide all means conceivable. towards achieving the speedy recovery, we also wish to demonstrate to the whole world theory is coming back on it's feet quickly. siri and people deserve to lead a normal way of life from under regional and global neighbors, syria as a source of peace. and this is not a trash muscle cell has the latest from the syrian capital, damascus. the new administration in sylvia is really enjoying this with us because when it came to cover on december 8th. so that's one of the priority is to have the international commission and says that based on we have seen delegations of the, of delegations arriving in damascus and expressing their support for the name of

administration. so one of the latest of was it was that from the gulf and the put a minister of crates. then the secretary general off the g, c. c. they were in damascus to be meeting on a shot at the defect and the, the of syria. and of course the for the minister shabani and the navy appointed chief of the packages and it's got tab as well. so the delegation, sir, uh, what, what would be making it clear to be a here look on the, on behalf of, of course, great, but on behalf of all the gulf countries and the same that they are ready to invest in syria and welcoming celia back to the out of world and indeed we see that that has resonated with the city and for the minister as well. saying that now city is back and is reclaiming is for india out of world. so one of the things that is making this was a particularly important is because both with the force gc,

see these are the, the standards of each companies and unions and see if that's what if it needs that investment is energy effective because it was mostly this floyd by the 15 years of the civil war. so now that uses the 2nd, the general of jesus, and the for the minister of quade, seeing that they are ready to invest in every possible still, if there is a demand, is significantly important. and a good news for the need and space and as well. yes sir, i met the ukrainian a foreign minister in damascus and announced a new strategic partnership. interest of the 1st says keith is sending 500 tons of grain to serve you to help easily come on a tyrant crosses. though such a bar in moscow has the rushing reaction to the craning delegation in damascus. the kremlin has arranged silence so far about the rapidly developing situation in damascus with the new administration,

they're taking power in the syrian capital. let's what we have heard from russian officials over the past few weeks since the fall of last year on the side is that the russians are in communication with the new leaders in syria. and they're going to continue the dialogue that they have started between both sides in the future of the russian military and its presence and serial remains unclear. but for the most part, we russians are keen to continue their presence inside syria. and this is a very strategically important as base and a naval base and tar tooth as well for russia. and it's unlikely that a kremlin will give that up very easily. what russian president brought to move, a lot of we're putting, has said in the past is that the fall of last year at the side is no, it's, it's a speech for russia. and even though the former and leader of syria is currently

residing in russia, after being granted political asylum along with his family and early december, this flights the changes that we have seen unfold. uh, in the past months in syria, the russians are keen to maintain a foothold in that country and also established relations within your administration. it is clear that this diplomatic dance is going to continue, and the visits of the printing for minister will likely enforce the urgency as that is the situation of the moment in syria for russian officials to try to establish some stronger contacts within the new administration. in damascus, dosage of worry, i'll just 0 moscow. well, the future of russia's ministry, present sincere areas now and doubts. let's take a look at 2 of its main operations. that is my main base and the talk here which play the crucial role in helping to change the cost of assuming that civil war in

favor of assets forces is offered. most of the support logistics and ground troops and this the russian naval base. that's all to smaller than the talk you facility. but it served as a critical logistical help. you can show the flow of supplies from bushes, black, see ports into syria solving traffic reports from the russian base at who many the fighters here tell us that this base at the time, i mean in syria, is a thorn in their hearts. because so much of destruction they were subjected to was from this space. there's so many strikes and attacks that are being tired out against the opposition from the space inside the base. uh, there is a heavy number off russian troops who are present inside the the scene from the area of the pictures that there's more than a dozen 5 digits which are here. they're helicopters there. there's a huge ministry presence inside their troops that are patrolling. it's not care what is the exact number of the tools, but according to

a 2015 agreement with the state and government. this is a presence that russia have plans to and intends to keep for a very long time, a permanent presence, according to that agreement to as we've been with this thing. the importance of having, i mean basis the only air base, the largest of its nature, the dresser has inside syria on the outskirts are these fighters who are here to make sure that the base is protected from any untoward incident, but also to ensure that there are no aside noiseless so which come out with this base, they believe many of them are hold up inside and have taken production inside the russian base where we've been fighting for 13 years like and so then his ally, russia, they both killed women and children for many years they must not stay here anymore . i also saw a russian troops during the battles and l have the some of the country side and the code this mountain. according to the am of they shut out government, they want to ensure that there is a relationship with all countries and for governments including russia,

which is not of an adversity and receiving in nature. but it is going to be a difficult balance to maintain here in have, i mean very many of these fight is they've lost relative loved ones. friends fight is colleagues who were, who died because of russian bombings on on them. and they feel that it is about time that the russians which, according to fighters here, hold on the outskirts, they feel it's an occupation occupying force. and it must go. so i'm going to drive it as a 0. i have, i mean, base in the tech area. we spoke to georgia coffee or the ceo of golf state analytics. the us geopolitical risk consultancy firm. he says western powers have played a passive role in the recent negotiations. a bite in administration is really sort of in a wait and see mode of trying to assess the actions of the new syrian government. focusing on the actions more in the statements. the pledges and the rhetoric,

i think so far, the words from of sharra and others, and the new syrian government, some very good to officials here in washington. but like i said, it's going to be the actions that really result in. um, washington making on conciliatory moves toward damascus. but obviously what we really matter is not so much of the bite in administration positions itself, but really the policies of the trump administration and as reviewers know so much on certain the surrounding questions about how the trump team is going to address most are side. siri up nonetheless, i think the us um certainly appreciates the fact that its allies and partners in the gcc or engaging the new government in syria. obviously the gcc states want to seems to build in syria. they want to see syria pulled away from iran, brought closer to the gulf countries. that is something officials in washington. definitely appreciate. and i think in the event that the trump administration is

not going to be list h t s. i think it's safe to assume that some golf countries like suddenly re beyond cuts are, would be well positioned to sort of be a bridge between the trump administration and the new damascus government. the is ready for us as of killed at least $27.00 palestinians. the last 24 hours was thousands continue to flee northern guns that the strips, health care system has been crippled by these very siege and the north and relentless foaming of medical facilities. many people are heading to take show for the enter nation hospital, which is no the functioning for patients to should be able to do you have to do the task and support health care system. this is a pattern that we have been seeing over and over clicking ones. areas become

misused for a while with no access to the minutes or you know, access to those to access or you can suffice. meanwhile, the head of the come out as well in hospital is still missing. he was among dozens of medical stuff detained by it's read on friday, tara assume has more from down to the central council. heavy is really, really trip ration is, is still ongoing, and the north of this strep out from within 2 months, so fun which they have a put a be a come on a tron hospital out of service. i'm detained at the hospice. i was directed to prepare some of the fields and that really had to get to use concerns among international organizations about the sites of some of the stuff. and yet even medical teams for were detained to germans at military operation. and this has been one of the basic significant developments that we have witnessed in the course of the past 24 hours. and even to billy is of course the serve has been living quite human misery following the a sit and of with the

a winter conditions in the winter season. here in the strip. they have run out of blankets and they have even run out of heating supply splittings and quite vulnerable in this very windy and rainy weather conditions. a to rest by road 3 elements, especially among children and one that power. so those are algebra. there has been a while the family of detain come out as well in hospital direct to some other associates as issued please. his immediate release. you know, i, that's and that's totally urgently appealed to the international community to act immediately for his release, detained by israeli occupation forces well performing gets humanitarian due to you know, surface of the mistreatment in states, a mind detention center and that attitude. and kimberly ation exposure to freezing cold denial of medical care despite and using his son and being injured himself during this war. doctor has some continued to service people with unwavering dedication to the entire family holes because externally citizenship and we call

a 15 minute warning. the since is rental sage in the north beginning nearly 3 months ago, the specialist pediatrician defined countless as riley orders to close the hospital to to him and detroit engine palestinians. despite him being wounded in his way it takes to la here the 2. then you can then whatever they do that will never be able to prevent us from providing medical services to the palestinian people in october, as riley false has killed his son. abraham. he was just is only one. doctor sophia's family said he was used as a human shield when he was detained by his riley forces to find for the palestinian people until the moment his freedom was taken. k. callahan:

how does he at this very minute trace, as it has into set to the mist lost from human people? what seems to me then doing it for to silence was sounded across central. israel is where the army says the missile was shot down before crossing into its territory. however, every from the rocket stone that they just finish, which is west of jerusalem, whose face of notion this house repeatedly towards as well. since last october, what they say is, and at the sort of there are 2 kind of spins in garza as well area as well as on by so it's the you and that told them into the fights has to stop that. and you saw that tax will risk the same miserable fate as how much you'll say ones around that israel has the ability to strike anywhere in the middle east and it works. one of those attacks by runs proxies. un security council reiterated, concerned about an escalation, involve hundreds of texting is right. and then as well as in the red sea,

out of grave concern, the sort of the military escalation could do. a part of dies between us. the ability with adverse political security economy can be many saturday, cushions, meals in yemen is read and throughout the region, which continue to bear the brunt of escalation. we have no and so the head hair without just hair medical breakthroughs, natural phenomenon and huge strides, and all sufficient intelligence, the back of the scientific progress made in 2020. the color of the weather does look quite mobile now across the good parts of north america. about it stalls thundered down, pulls them in the process of clearing away from the east, disable the next system. well,

that's gonna push this way across the plains. is this one just easy south across that eastern side of canada, right? this guy is coming back in behind the info. chase. sorry about that mix system, bringing some wet to weather up towards the northeast in cold phone, the save gen retry, i'm fine. i went towards the western pos for now. will i be? we'll see some right sweet and snow coming in with the cascades pushing across. so you heard about us as we go 13 way just a little bit of wet weather even think it's way into northern parts of california for new year's day. see that wintry weather the labor costs, the other side of the consummate, meanwhile, has sent me dry across the caravan, some lovely sunshine, beautiful tropical sunshine. coming through that she knew you as a full gulf losey settled and sunny west showers over towards the southern hall for central america, west and past. all of the reason is we go 13 and new year's day. they wanted to show us there may be a shout just creeping towards to make a cube the was his band. i also towards billy was at the stage, i think, pretty. then somebody could catch a shower too,

but losey fine. i have settled to the east, the mountains, the we are going to see the agencies of legend some gloves 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

watching. i'll just remind to of, of the top stories now this out to a, to searching syria, to reject all forms of falling into eventually stuff. and that's what kept this continued head of serious new administration. nothing else from has met a senior dedication from 28. along with the head of the gulf, the corporation council is rarely forces to 22nd to students in the last 24 hours. a silence has continued to fleet, norman gunston. the strips health care system has been trick pools bodies really siege of the dentist, only medical facilities and ministries such as intercepts with ms. some thoughts from getting the shot down before crossing into its territory through a scene actuated from 13 in april to tennessee. the us treasury department has a choose. the chinese state sponsored hackers were stealing documents for its workstations

. treasury officials have declared the bridge to be a major incident, live in phones congress, saying the hack only extended to unclassified documents and has been contained. in addition to financial regulation, the us treasury department is responsible for enforcement or sanctions measures around the world. will see hubbard, tennessee joins us now from washington. d. c. c. have. what can we make then on this latest occupation of the chinese state sponsored a cyber attack? and it's true. we do get them pretty regularly and because we can never really necessarily verify the veracity of all these these obligations. but obviously this one is making headlines today, monday in the us because the treasury center that is of the leadership of the senate banking committee. as it was in house to, in the sort of an occasion saying that based on the available indicators, the incidence is of an extreme intent to a china state sponsored advanced system press, abt act so, but in fact from the let's say what we understand is the treasury was notified on

december the 8th, the 3rd party vendor, to the treasury, and somehow managed to get hacked itself. so that the leap, the proper security key about vendor use in order to have remote access to treasury work stations at was somehow got the heck is going to hold hold of that. i'll definitely stay with that. a available to access remotely, treasury workstations. but as you say, the treasury says bad business costs are 5, it says it's no longer a threat. they work with the f, b i to salt this from being a threat. there's no evidence. there's tried that, but whoever back is where the trend frederick is, is china still has access to treasury information. we don't know when the actual breach of god or for how long it last. so those, we have another questions, but the treasury says within 30 days they will send more information to us on a banking committee. at least we understand that the chinese embassy is completely reject to the accusation. in a state of a chinese embassy fed. uh,

that's the rejection and responsibility for the hack. quite early and aging firmly opposes the us, is mere attacks against china without any factual basis and, and create a, that's pretty normal. we often get together with, with room upwards of hours. the accusations of chinese hacking, followed by chinese chinese denials, as a few weeks ago, was the so called soul tie food. the headquarters were told results and in us citizens having bad telecommunications that text messages us on voice calls apparently being intercepted by allegedly try these hackers. but yeah, otherwise it's very difficult for us to, to judge the truth of is, and there is a sumption that is sort of the sort of activity is widespread because we know they've been us pioneer of this kind of hacking into government. i'm fact, the citizenry of the world, and that's how the communications we do that from edward snowden, about just over 10 years ago. the wiki leaks the we can digs, revelations,

so there's an assumption that the, everyone's active. but it's, but it's rather difficult for us. i mean, it's all the information that we have right here to, to, to speak to the veracity of yonkers and so forth. and who is responsible. she help, thanks very much indeed for that. russia and ukraine, the say they have each freed admitted to repress know the coordinated swap, ro could buy united arab emirates, russian defense industries says it's $150.00 soldiers were released on the roof. and so now being transported back to russian tire trade. ukraine says some of its $189.00 personnel released include only fighters from other style and that might be helpful. so it's chris j. u a has ordered the inspection of what it spending 737800 feet off the sunday's crash that killed 179 people. the jet burst into flames, often emergency landing in the southern states of one. i'll just say of robert brides has this report from one. 2 at the an apple terminal,
