pro freezing temperatures. also children compound to reduce the humanitarian price as well. right now, families who are living and make ship shelters come some even homes out buildings like pro cost installations and even appropriate thing to keep themselves room due to the lack of sense of wins at closing. the, the vast majority of families as we have been during the day has been really expressing their deep pain that they have completely been flooded today by hip range. that time the vast majority of their mixture, time sensitive to unload the vast majority. now we're talking about 90 percent of doctors population has been intentionally just placed on right now. they're leaving an open ended commitment on to them when stuff used to be at a time of public gathering assemblies are some of the main things and even for beautiful moments, but now tend to be annoyed with them as they write for rain. just talk immediately
1:04 pm
due to the very c b implications that has resulted from the ongoing photo of rain that i sent across. because this trip that is one of the some but realities that this trip has been going on. i'm. this is even compounded by the as cost it to you of humanitarian aid supplies that to have been prevented to be inside to the gods, including the lack of blankets and even a $1.00 set clothes and a few that is a critically folding short. i saw it a couple i assume reporting for us from dated by the center of the gaza strip. thank you so much. well, not bringing months. wish i'm on. who's the palestinian journalist on humanitarian worker who lived in gauze out until march of this year months. so sure, i'm on welcome back to elgin 0 the headphone are saying this, quote, the horrors continue unabated under the world's watch. this, of course, 15 months after israel's one gaza. how do you reflect on the past 15 months? and when you look at these live pictures from gaza and see the rain pouring down and displays, palestinians, what do you thinks?
1:05 pm
so it was exactly a year ago that i did the live without a 0 from the top of loss of hospital and con eunice. and at that time we saw things good and couldn't get to worse then it has a life now, but unfortunately, and under being witnessed by the entire world. so as, as you can see, we have 2000000 civilians that are left vulnerable in the winter in the cold their children dying because of the lack of foods, alaska forms a lot of clean water, the lack of hygiene products. in the north. they have been on the siege and close they, they've been on their seats for almost 3 months now. and everyone has seen and witnessed what is happening has come out. and as long as one is learning even more about the details of what's happening to during the school around and the humanitarian workers that are defined on or off to being called to get it everywhere. only 2
1:06 pm
days ago, humanitarian workers in the north, in the city that i work directly with have been targeted. they were trying to give aid to around 3000 orphans in the city of us. they had bags, they had to close, they have the cash in envelopes. they were targeted, most of them have been killed. and that a, the right now was being of the coverage and they're still trying to get it to the orphans in needs. what is happening now is a genocide. what is happening now? is this car on the modern world? and the big shouts out, so i'll just see it off. it's leadership, it's stuff. people like you that and we'll keep talking about because we need to keep talking about because we cannot get used to what is happening. it is getting worse day by day. and we all need to work towards ensuring that for the students get every reasonable that i, that they deem necessary. well, it looks, speaking of the humanitarian aid. and of course, you rightly mentioned that the north of the strip has been under seats for nearly 3
1:07 pm
months. i mean, the un says israel is systematically hindering a to gaza. we see you, this is your it, and your monetary and situation. but this is something that is real pushes back against. it says, we are not deliberately blossomgate and we're not walking 8. i think it's the same, but today that they've been repeating for the last year and 3 months i was talking to on, on the official yesterday for told me that there is only now 2 hospitals in the north. that is providing any kind of support to hundreds of thousands of palestinians, but are still residing there. i think that these are, these are systematically flying to an x that has the strip bits by bit starting with the north and slowly into the south and then into the middle region. as we are hoping that this is temporary because president trump said that he would not allow such thing to happen while he is in office. we think that a split a scene,
1:08 pm
and this is the last strike from the danielle and his government, trying to take in as much land as possible, trying to kill the spirit of the philistines as much as possible before trump comes into the office and hopefully a permanent, stay at a ceasefire comes into place. right now the nathaniel government is still trying to break the foot of skinny and spirits. however, every day as you witness through social media. but as teens are remaining strong together with the rest of the city world, like many other countries around the world's achieve the freedom, the latest being syria and before the north and africa, south africa and many other countries. palestine will be free and hopefully we will witness this within our lifetime when sort of shown on uh, thank you so much for speaking to us, 1020. thank you. the
1:09 pm
well, syria is gearing up for a critical national conference this week that aims to shape the future of the country. monday saw a more high level talks in the capital with delegations from the region and ukraine meeting in damascus for so far as our reports from damascus. quits for the minister is the 1st for the minister from a golf country to visit damascus says the phone on the ceiling of a gene. the difference is contra support for cd is 30 total integrity and 70 models for guys guys. we reject all forms of forwarding 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 are assured efforts will be beneficial to our people. and we remind them that we had been on the side of the sea when people since the start of the cedar and revolution 13 years ago. surely as new for the minister endorsed his counterpart by stating
1:10 pm
that syria is not the threat, but the source of peacefulness, neighbors, and the outer world, either from the necessity who added them a whole or 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 serious coming back on it's feet quickly. syrian people deserve to lead a normal way of life among the regional and global neighbors. totally, a serious new leader. i'm of the shut up met, ukrainian, 40 minutes to the end of this via animal as a strategic partnership between ukraine and syria. so the safety of you sending $500.00 tons of green to syria, 12 is to him in italian crisis. we'll have to read the from a have to cities going on. we are ready to help the syrian people because ukraine is interested in a staple, syria. we will be certainly be of flesh to support fruit security as soon as possible. russia, which is fighting a war. these do green was one of the main back us up to see the gym and has have
1:11 pm
a phone troubles for nearly a decade. a submitted to the basis our students, syria, and the future of remains on certain you planning for administer tied to can be a city as new administration. and the russians made it to be present in syria. but stratasys who wants to maintain ties with most call, soon as me read this patient wants to be seen as the less than that the representative of sylvia and syrians does it seem to cover on december 8th. those are for the medications have visited damascus. but the top because of the new ones vision included is lee, that i've set up. i still on the sections by many countries on this, they are lifted. who lives? tennessee will remain in question. this is ed. how did you read damascus? ok, we have a salma been job aids standing by for us in syria's 3rd largest city homes. but 1st, let's cross over to the capital, damascus us where hash them had about a is going to join us from so has. and there is quite a flurry of diplomatic activity in the past 24 hours. give us the take away lines and the take away messages, what,
1:12 pm
what we should know about this. what significant developments that diplomatically hit in damascus when i 1st arrived here. and i was talking to people close to the new administration. the biggest concern was whether they is going to be a recognition of this new government or whether it's a national response, would it be muted on, within a few days. but the ticket of the last few days, we've seen that it goes from everywhere coming to damascus. and providing significant political support for the new administration, but particularly the facade is inviting the c a for him, and it's set to travel to the yeah, we should definitely go to government dates for the pro magic recognition from the out of the and also from the gcc, the medicaid, a mess with the new administration lead to twice this week and they've voiced some concerns, but particularly about the violence which is by aging and tough to send. let's talk
1:13 pm
you know, targeting what the government disc lives as the remnants of a former regime beach national community of the about because in particular, i think we need to protect the minorities the otherwise in particular. so if it isn't momentum, which is building up for this new administration, which is going to be why the pacific to be a significant step that could favor the way for the seller to further consider the consider dates his grip on power and expand his political influence. in the near future, how somewhat more we learning at this hour on the preparations in place to form a committee to draft the new syrian constitution as well as it is now this k take, a government has been data ends by march. in the meantime, this is why the trying to do very inviting people for the national conference and the moment they have a consensus, they will appoint a,
1:14 pm
a so cold constituent gathering, which is committed, which is going to be the task with drafting the new constitution of the sun, i made it clear that this is going to take full years, the transitional period in syria, and his rationale behind this. the timeline is basically the need for stability of the logistics of their basements. we'd have to take some time and wait for the so you have to come back home to be able to ensure that you have an audit. a toll co code which is put into place though some cd and members of the opposition, particularly those who lived abroad, said they were concerned about the positions that last for 4 years. and that if i'm at a saw, it was genuine about democracy. it has to be no less than a year and a half maximum 2 years. the, the most important thing here is that you have a transition for 4 years. within that time i'm on the side, we continue to be the defect to the, to in syria. but he's likely to save the outcome of what happens best,
1:15 pm
but particularly that now he seems to be having more of international backend for his own status and for his new administration. okay, thank you so much hash i had about a reporting from damascus in syria. well now bringing osama bon jovi, joining us from some of your and homes, which is of course, serious 3rd largest city. what are the challenges there in terms of maintaining security a theory, let me just show you because as there's a lot of focus on the diplomatic activities and the consolidation of power and, and how to maintain relations with other countries. most parts of this country in syria looks like this the, the. busy entire blocks, and if i could take you from my left all the way to that and a, this is the 60 feet in homes, a major thoroughfare which used to be full of people. and because of mazda
1:16 pm
displacement because of the fusion, because of attacks on the hospitals, because of most in reinforce uh, info. uh, disappearance is uh, because of incarceration is because of torture. hundreds of thousands of people from the city of homes uh were just based uh, this is uh they divided by one of the destroyed neighborhoods in homes. and it gives you an idea of what life used to be. its a 4 lane highways where there's barely any traffic and now that people are beginning to come home on the other sides where you see some structures coming back up is essentially that people have tried to been brick and mortar. they have tried to building, they had tried rebuilding their lives in one of those homes is a man who returned after the 7th of december and the in the window next door is a woman who's lost a son who's other son is missing. and that is the story of every single street, every single city that you go to, we have been to
1:17 pm
a level of you've been to the left have been to homes. they've been to that tech. you ever been to talk to us and everywhere you go. it is the same story and the security challenges that you've talked about is that there are remnants of the form of government tools just done build fee fatigues and to come to areas like this on the outskirts at night harassing people. and it is a major security challenge for the of the shuttle government who are trying to consolidate power. if i bring all the boxes together. but in terms of security policing disputes also means high or not just on the people's minds, but also a challenge for the service. so i'm a, just on that note of the extent of the destruction that you were showing us just a moment ago. how wide spread is it? of course homes was the, the 1st area where, uh, where people, uh, took off the revolution way back in 2011. was
1:18 pm
absolutely, so this was the cavity, all of that evolution. this was, this was called the capital of the resistance. and that is why it is being pummeled street after street to building after building neighborhood after a neighborhood you will see and complete this, right? there is very little signs of life there. there are some people who come back, essentially, people who, who are living in camps as well. but it is very difficult for people to come back to because there are no services. there is, uh, there's barely any structure left and there are no signs of life. so even if they have to pull themselves back up, it is going to be a challenge and it is a real contrast between what you see here and what you see in areas which are controlled by the government. because buildings are left in tax, there, people can go about ottoman about in the streets. the shots are not like this can be vacant and void of life. so it, it is, is stark contrast to which this country is living in between the areas headed by
1:19 pm
the opposition and headed by the previous version. and it is going to take some time before people can come back to cities like homes, to places. i'd rather there was more than half a 1000000 people who used to live here. this is a very diverse area in the city. you're good christians because i love you as you go to muslims sundays and she has and they are going to have to rebuild themselves away from this activity and an ethnic divisions which have divided this country for tony, for so long. and people here at children here who we've been speaking to say that they're ready to move on. they're ready to turn the chapter, but they need help to rebuild themselves. okay, thank you so much of summer. been driving reporting from holmes in syria. okay, well now bring and still talking about accounts as a professor public policy, it's kind of been kind of a university joining us here on search. welcome back to the phone, but i got so we can see, i mean the challenges are immense for a serial. let's talk about the diploma. see for just a moment everyone is visiting syria, right. so you had the torch, the americans, the categories, the ukrainians. um, what is your a sort of take away message from all of that? i mean,
1:20 pm
how important is that for syria to have international legitimacy at this point? while it is, it is very important. but what's, what we're seeing now is that all these countries are coming to give encouraging signs pressure to demonstrate their form as fast as possible. and this is phase for the number of challenges and the personal sort of level, and that is h t t s level. he has to make a huge transition from what was seen as a tyra's group into now as a states states man and a group that can govern at the very important signal to him was given, i think, by the americans before any of those have visited the ignited states visited 1st and they may and they have given him the sign that he's got the time to work out of tentative. what is in common with everyone. is there a they're all very happy to have a culture of us that they're all would like to have
1:21 pm
a stable sylvia at all size minus maybe one or 2 would like to have as a software and state that is in control or had surgery. and i think the intention committees trying to give its best support within the confinement of, of the rules. and the biggest confinement now is the listing we heard earlier about . so the inviting a shut out to come and visit. now he cannot travel without him being d listed from the terrace. this is very easy to add people to the list is very complicated to take people of the list and it requires security council resolution which may or may not be stopped by rush. we don't know yet frank, but to the actual recognition of the state, i think i think there is some time to go and maybe things will become fear after he holds the 1st national dialogue. what about? we'll talk about the national dialogue, but just on the points you're making, what about the listing of the sanctions? because we know that is urgent for syria to rebuild. i think the sanctions in one
1:22 pm
way or the other have be not being now avoided in that human intent assistance continues to, to floyd to syria, much with comes to turkey. now jordan has also allowed a to flow from jordan into syria, so they're working around the sanctions, but they're not gonna be lifting the major sanctions that were based on the national assets of syria outside. because i think they will tie that to the idea of this article. nice visiting with the government eh, taking hold of powered syria. okay. and just give me your reading. if you look ahead to the national dialogue conference, what sort of challenges do you are for see with that conference and what are some of the shutter says the elections can take up to 4 years? why so long is the providing enough clarity on what the electoral process look like, i think is reflecting on the experiences of other countries. what's happened in egypt. what's happening to me is in terms of transition to democracy, what took place and i've gotten this done all the experience to show that the rushing into elections is not the right solution. when you have
1:23 pm
a country that's divided on secure 6 or lines. it's very, very difficult to implement a fair elections and if anything gets has led to further divisions. so it is reasonable and it is not advisable. in fact, to take more time to stabilize the situation before you start talking about elections and democratic processes. now where he has to work hard, i think isn't this national dialogue. his understanding of the nations at all does not match the uh, international or the coalition of syrian at free forces that exist outside syria. he's trying to ensure that most of the people attending the dialogue with from within syria, maybe some people will come from outside. but the names may not be the ones that we all expect. those that are outside of the country have now been for under, for years accused of being under the sound of one country,
1:24 pm
all the other. and they're all being operated as a proxy by different sources. so we're trying to make sure that this is genuine domestic. i think effort, right? a lot of times on this, i mean if he's able to leave a few years of minorities within syria, then that's be a good step. he also has done a lot to try and reassure neighboring countries. the syria is not going to be a threat to its neighbors, including israel. and so all of those steps are in the right direction. ok, so somebody costs professor public policy. it's kind of been funny for university. thank you so much for the lawyers of south korea's and peach president to use that, you'll say they will fights and a rest warrant issued by court on tuesday. investigators requested that warrants after you and failed to appear for questioning several times. una was suspended from office after he attempted to impose martial law earlier this month,
1:25 pm
and he's facing potential charges of insurrection. rob mcbride reports from sol. for prosecutors investigating impeach president june took jo. this move was unprecedented, but necessary on 3 separate occasions. they have summons june, for questioning on charges of insurrection. arising from his short lived in possession of martial law. and the has like no, the more the opposition successfully impeached him in the national assembly. and now want to see him criminally punished that on so got you is how you use. so your, the leader of the interaction must be arrested immediately. you issued an order to the martial law forces to open fire. you also instructed them to break down the doors of the national assembly with axes and arrest lawmakers. but you know, the ruling party accused the opposition of making the country ungovernable. they say the marshal, lord declaration was within the president's powers, rejecting the arrest warrant. uh,
1:26 pm
people know that this illegal and unwarranted request for a warrant being approved raises serious concerns about whether it's alliance with the principles of the rules of more opposition is that such an unlawful warrant request is invalid. and without legal effect, it's on clear how you would be arrested with his official residents, still protected by presidential security. and now the focus for more of his conservative support is turning out in protest with a vibrant tradition of street protests. this pay with the political turmoil has stood up both sides that are on mass demonstrations by those who want to see you punished, but also by his supporters who seem equally determined to prevent his arrest. rob mcbride, i'll just say era. so we'll staying in south korea on the acting president. choice on mark has ordered emergency safety checks on the national airline operating system. after sundays crash that killed
1:27 pm
a 179 people. investigators are now focus on possible mechanical issues. communication failures on the airport barrier design. a bird strike has not been ruled out. sundays crashes south korea's worst aviation disaster in decades. the flight data recorder from an, as are based on airlines jet. they've crashed last week, and kazakhstan is now on its way to the plains manufacturer and brazil for examination. 38 people were killed in the crash on christmas day, including the 2 pilots of the embry, or aircraft, as are based on the official say that plane was hit by russian air defenses over gross me, where it was scheduled to land. the russian president, vladimir putin has issued an apology, but without admitting responsibility. the us treasury department has accused chinese state sponsored hackers of stealing documents from its workstations. treasury officials have declared the breach to be
1:28 pm
a major incidents and have informed congress. they say the hack only involved on classified documents and has been, contains on sunday, the government's upon them. i will host a ceremony to celebrate the 25th anniversary for cover and control over the panama canal. but it comes up to us, present it to like, as the us presented to elect donald trump is threatening to re gain control of that canal. let's explore one of the world's crucial waterways. so the panama canal was built by the us and spend 82 kilometers connecting the pacific and the atlantic oceans. it saves ships, weeks of travel by avoiding the longer journey around south america. the canal shortens the los angeles to new york trip to $22.00 days instead of a month. in 1977, the us and panama signed a treated grants in panama control over the canal starting on december 31st 1999.
1:29 pm
the waterway handles 5 percent of global trade transporting vital goods like metals, fuel and greens. us is by far it's biggest user with about 74 percent of cargo volume followed by china and japan. and the canal which was expanded recently, turns around $5000000000.00 in revenue for the panamanian government. asunder and can't see, it looks at the history of this vital transportation channel of my city. they've been working hard on the preparation too much 25 years have been a manual control over its iconic canal. but the anniversary is clouded by the threats afraid seduce elect donald trump, to return it to us control, or kind of the, the panama canal. as i was phones over empty just because he won, he cannot automatically pretend that the cannot is his and that our tweet, these means nothing the good. the canals history is one of resilience, engineering, and politics. in the late 19th century,
1:30 pm
a french effort to build the canals failed when tropical diseases killed 20000 workers. the united states took over the project in 19 o 4 and managed to build it in 10 years, connecting the atlantic and the pacific ocean, transforming maritime trades. the us control the canal until president jimmy carter signed a series of treaties, which meant there was joined the controller until december 1999. then it was formerly handed over to panama. we shall receive back because i always, uh, believe that uh, the canal was moved on. part of my story. oh, yeah. and therefore you, you always belong to panama, and the opinion is administration. the canal has remains vital to global trades and now trumpets suggesting the us got a bad deal arguing without proof that us ships are being charged higher fees and that chinese soldiers are controlling at navient. com,
1:31 pm
or as have been treated in very unfair and in your dishes way of the fees being charged by panama ridiculous, highly unfair. the treaties allow the us to intervene militarily, if the canals neutrality is tristan's. but don't give washington any right to take it back. this trinity was signed and by 2 pressures. it was rather 5 by the senate. and it was implemented by the house of representatives and it became a law. it was a law. so he has to for the law. i was a minister the front of i can uh for, for uh, 7 years and i never got any instructions for any strategies to do anything over 70 percent of the canal traffic is linked to the us and with growing chinese involvement. what's clear is that the canal will remain central to both global trade and geo political tensions. allison that i've been to adjust the uta still
1:32 pm
adds on the al jazeera news hour of cimbawe place, deepening water crisis, how pollution is contaminating. the capitals main freaking supplies and find out why there's much to celebrate for fans of the cleveland cavaliers. that's on the way. the forecast is stormy weather to end this year and bringing the next is not the good news for those who wants to send fireworks into the sky. is the strength is when this the problem is already cancelled. certain celebrations for scotland and the strength of wind and change of wind direction will happen throughout scotland and north, not whales, finding the entire coal spread further afield. and the following weather is a definite change in things is a noisily cold. normally that's just the front that introduces that change. of course you follow it to it. so use that means it's introducing
1:33 pm
a lot of snow to something sweeping and quite possibly windy rather to denmark. the low countries, not wind itself, will stop to make things change. this is tuesday, then bigger picture, quiet for most of southern europe and central europe. fucked. has been a problem and power in germany, that's about so you want to weigh it because the wind stopped to pick up. and that following cold will spread all the way down south to us the out about time you get to late says the friday. the, the insurance to change from 9 degrees in grey cloud, the weather increasing, wind down to plus one is a max, but we snow chairs full sunshine. there's the last few days. we've seen some heavy right in the, at this moment, is there more shares to coming out? you have you? but the pictures of the dusty wouldn't be one from much of north africa as the this is the, my book kenyon and she lives in these mountains. it's spring here,
1:34 pm
but come summer this mountain valley will become a desert. right now. this looks very lush in green, but in about a month it's going to be yellow and totally dry because of the drought and ongoing drug that's last and more than 15 years here. what if the moisture released by snow and glaciers in spring could be prolonged to the critical summer months? that's the goal of the news project to build artificial glaciers, cold ice to pass for these middle structures. the magic begins in winter. temperatures dropped well below 0 to water from the stream of the mountain glaciers harnessed moves up a hose and releases a light spray that eventually turns into a rock hard structure. 2 years, it's hope they'll be at least 50 i supers in this area countering advancing climate change. one drop at
1:35 pm
a time. the the the how are we going to the top stories on the how to 0 news? our ok, 7 palestinians, and garza including 6 babies have died of hypothermia in the past week, and that includes a 20 day old newborn temperatures are plummeting and hundreds of thousands of for severe displays. people are struggling to keep warm and make surface, and syria is gearing up for a critical national dialogue conference this week that aims to shape the future of the country. monday saw more fi level talks in the capital with regional and you've free in delegations. a south korean court has issued an arrest warrant for each president used to kill you and was suspended from office after he declared martial law. earlier this month,
1:36 pm
the warrant was requested by investigators after you've sailed several times to if your 1st question is returning to our top story in the whereabouts of the director of come out, antoine hospital, doctor, northern gauze, all there's still a known doctor for some of us i feel was the change by is really forces on friday. his family are pleading for his immediate release and say that is really military as denying him medical care. no, that's and that's totally judging the appeal 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 famous treatment in states, a my 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 serve his people with unwavering dedication inside of somebody else, cuz externally citizenship and we call them that cause externally government
1:37 pm
international organizations like the w h o. and i'm at global and all phone governments to intervene and secure his release before it is too late. so software to out and think of some of the former ambassador in consul general if is really new york. joining us from tel aviv mr. pinterest, thanks for your time with us. what else is real trying to achieve by detaining the director of the come out online hospital and by really just simply decimating the health care system across the gaza strip of violation of course of international law? yeah. okay. the, let's start with the 2nd question during the operation, according to the military and according to the governments, official line was intelligence driven because there was nothing evidence intelligence evidence that over 250 hamas people or gathered him in the hospital. and so it was encircled,
1:38 pm
put under siege and then israel went in and according to official reports apprehended over $250.00 people. even if that is the case that does not justify rendering the hospital in operational, meaning that it cannot function and it's just one of 2 or 3 or 4 hospitals that have seen the same fate. now ask for the director of visit with the on the hospital . he again officially has been detained for questioning whether or not he was completed in activity. whether he knew that they were coming again. this is the official like i, i happen to think that no matter who is in the hospital no matter what is hidden or stashed in that hospital hospital should be out of bounds to the military. but a lot of it, the reason if we agree, if we look at the broader context and the, at a slightly broader perspective, a lot of this has to do with the fact that the war has no objective. right. i mean,
1:39 pm
the war did not the warheads, military objectives that were never line with political meaning when president binding back in january of 2023, this is our year ago. and then again in january and february and march presented a post war framework. israel rejected it for us to deny the never existed, then it says it's not interested in band and then uh, repudiated the entire type z a and refused to enter into and to engage in any thoughts on that. because there are no political goals aligned with military, with the military goals, the war is just calling on people are getting killed. it was protracted to begin with the uh, for mr. an attorney, i was political purposes. even the military has said more than once and the outgoing defense minister was fired among other reasons for this. so that the war
1:40 pm
exhausted its usefulness and it seemed to the t. okay, let me have the allow me to jump in there. my apologies for the sake of time, even on that point that you make about the official lines coming out of israel when it comes to the hospitals. we've seen this before. remember of shift way back in the war. i mean, israel claims that they're being used by him as fighters, but they never provide any evidence right to support these claims. how do you explain though, that it continues to get away with basically floating international law? it is not a very that's a very good question. look, i don't know this both and she find them the indonesian hospital and then i'm out of the hospital and now this hospital that we're talking about, i don't know who exactly was apprehended there. i don't know who was arrested. i don't know who was shot dead in terms of wanted from us on the board repairs. i do know, however, that there is a discrepancy and you described correctly. there is
1:41 pm
a discrepancy between the uh uh, you know, the, the, the big sick headlines of, uh, over 250 and they were all armed explosives and it was this and it was but, and then the failure to uh, come up with the evidence to support this, um it says this digital is assuming that this, this is justified because israel says it's justified, right? no one is no one is pushing or leaning, more pressuring to provide that, the incriminating information or evidence, or prove and, and then everyone forgets about it until we, we need a new crisis of this time. okay, we'll leave it there. alan. think us former ambassador and console general of israel in new york. joining us from tel aviv. thank you so much. thank you very. as well as diplomatic efforts continue in syria, the country's economic and industrial capital. a level is facing challenges if its own. so it's one of the cities that suffered most during the civil war. now a month after sides ousting,
1:42 pm
businesses are struggling to find solutions to problems inherited from the regina. for how much val, how's that story from a lot of the old district kinetic po, easier wins due to asset that seem seem disagreement attacks the city used to be the throbbing, economic cost of serious. but yeah. as of, as the bikes coupled with us sanctions of corruption, i've left the tool but to complete the lifeless with the a what your immediately after the full of the former regime, we remove the obstacles and regulations that used to handle the success of business . we ended the extortion system of on just text ation and finds on free trade has come. but we're still under the impact of sanctions and of problems inherited from the mafia that's being ruling. like the shape of business owners, brainstorm about plans to alleviate the causes, some of them suggested connecting individual contributions to buy fuel medicine and
1:43 pm
other edge and to assess it is the safety of other for both up to $20000.00 fox stories supply and going out on the city about also other countries with some of the finest products. but many of these box it is i'm not fully operational at the moment. due to severe fall shortages. i'm at 6953. when is the most modern and serious? he's only possibly a funny because of a week long outage. he's using identity to, to operate a few minutes more on that, the company. how do you? good? i was suffering before the liberation was difficult, so the war forced the closure of the factory at times with power crises were frequent on rule materials and accessible taxes. what me exorbitant, all of this is over the now it's the issue of energy that's disrupting our business . the impact of the war is basically everywhere. thousands of businesses are closed . so many skilled people who left the country still having 310. and yet
1:44 pm
life goes on here, says this man, as his income making items from local material ads. there was one things, the war has failed to destroy, ingenuity, and of the silliness of the people of i thought there was hope they would soon be able to attend the situation alone. how much fun, just you are. the people will not speak to our minot at 2 o'clock, john, who's a non resident scholar at the mountain age for carnegie middle east center, joining us from who the past. thank you for your time. so with the challenges are really huge when it comes to syria economy, of course being one of them. what needs to be done as a matter of urgency to start the process of rebooting the economy? i didn't, i didn't mention the problems are multi layers in terms of the 1st use that i
1:45 pm
think some of the, you know, heavy and good terms. the legacy is up to redeem, at already being a, be a result for us as the story shows the check point. you know, a lot of businesses connected to par, who people within the army or to security services. i think this a mean and it's all said is the network is all dr. asked us to call her power in damascus. but i think this is just the, you know, keep up the iceberg. some of the things that need to improve our services and economy in general, and that is tied to, to, you know, the, the early recovery winters, syria and then you decide to leaders will be able to pursue early recovery, stabilizing the situation, providing the minimum in need of services from electricity, water, but also larger issues, remain voice inspections. and there are manufacturers on syria. perhaps the 2 of the most relevant was, are a, was imposed on h t s,
1:46 pm
which is assumed that ignited taurus organization on many towers listened a role. so that has to be sold because no serious investor, i think will come and do a we. busy wait, syria, we down to removing those a section, but a bigger problem, i think is this caesar act, which is one of the most comprehensive section packages that human history has seen . and that needs to be, it that has been, had bring recovery and informed me of improvement in syria for some time and need continues to, to do so. so any, any serious recovery will have to, you know, without to be reassess. it will have to do so to what extent then are the sanctions hampering or what is the extent that the sanction sanctions are hampering the economy and, and how do you see that process of them being removed, taking place? i mean, is the west now taking a more of a wait and see approach or,
1:47 pm
or how is the west going to deal with this issue of lifting the sanctions a yeah, very timely question to the 1st part of your question. i did a did have personal in many ways, obviously on paper these sections target yes and regina model personalities and in the said, redeem day, present toys of the board of do we use goods to syria in a here that the origin could have used it for chemical weapons are all next type of what the, however they, the taxes are so comprehensive that they, they have massive trusting effect. this is called treating effect, whereby a lot of banks are over compliant in a for instance, money transfers, money transfers. the room from the individual to individualize syria was very difficult under sectional uh regina atlanta and all 4 large businesses. this also doesn't impact businesses, but also, you know, the rebuilding of a lot of key infrastructure for us, this broad term of ours, etc,
1:48 pm
etc. so to the 2nd part of your question, i think this is largely related to us for a policy and to, to remind our old years back in a few weeks ago. busy the house of representatives, we use the cesar a call as sections i, however, it is technically not an action any is waiting the approval and the signature of president trump. uh so we at the moment we start really functioning. however, from my reading, i don't think us using any hurry and removing all of these sections, i think they are, you know, more where they want to 1st evaluate not just a, uh, not in the, you know, they want to evaluate the deeds and the actions of the new a new authorities, right. and that's because before they remove those. okay, it's a major fever, a major leverage on. thank you so much, or may not talk about john nonresident scholar at the amalgamate, kurt kind of get me at least center, thanks for joining us. from budapest, as well,

the color we got on for the sports in serious. peter very thank you very much. ruben amber and says it's a better thing to be the mattress. the united manager at the moment tend to have to answer questions about relegation. 3 levels would be some to get on monday. they slipped with to know home to feed against and you call. so in the frame you need it means you know, i, the full teams in the table it's, it's 70 points above the mitigation zone. since meeting man said he, they've lost 3 of these games and with enough out of the lease i think that the more he's not there is nothing to lose. um i think he's is so little bit lost
1:53 pm
in this moment. so it's, it's, it's really the between embarrassing to be addressing that the coaching to, to lose a lot of game. so what we have to cope with us difficult moments in the, in the life of everybody. so it's a joining us now from leads is neil squires who's the former chief sports rice at the daily express. you'll get to talk to you again, how much on man, just the united in danger of actually being dragged into a relegation battle. a bullet, the realities full of things, place is near the relegation zone. is your pin qualification. i mean that's, that's the situation the found themselves enough to the defects in new castle and they've switch exercises when over chelsea about about some point gap doesn't look a lot. i mean it's only thing couple a squad of months just united cost. and supposing quality shouldn't been in relegation. buffalo not yet,
1:54 pm
but it's only natural monitors united. so suppose that we'll be looking down instead of kind of mine and i'm a room is being very personable, especially in these news conferences. but how long does he actually have before he needs to start delivering i mean, i think we need to remember he's only been in the jump less than 2 months, maybe before that was a very successful manager at supposing lisbon bus united. so you'd have got was rather than bachelor since he's arrival these last 6 of a is a lot matches. and the system that he's brought in the formation he's tried, isn't working in defense the, the place he picked in front of the defense customer and erickson against new castle. look that rage and they, they look disjointed side. he's got to sold them out pretty quickly. he's not going
1:55 pm
to get any easy. the next couple of games. they've got some level poll coming up. and then also in the co, both away games. so the scrutiny is only gonna grow 10. you know, i had to learn something from perhaps level pool and also the rebuilds that they went through on the 12th and all types of for example. and that's an interesting comparison because they were, they were both following giants that were revived by uh, good managers. uh so it can be done. but um, i think the less than from both of those situations is the time and patients is required. um, which can be in short supply but um, you know, neither of those 2 mileage is made instant impacts of crisis as long walls and uh century sending out to be they both finished aids in that 1st seasons out those clubs. and uh, if i'm room can get united towards this season, they probably reflect on that as a, as
1:56 pm
a jump quite well. don't know why they're looking at indeed. now having said that, realistically, what do you think is the best match? and so you might have friends kind of hopeful the season possible. they care about cups or a gum, i think with the draw they've gotten this like upset around us in a way that will be going pretty soon as well. a champions league out of the window, it's the same, but some, i think the road league is probably the one hope of actually making something positive out of the season of that and staying safe and away from that relegation design. now squash, thank you for your time. appreciate it. thank you. can even kevin is have one they 7 game in a row in the n. b a on monday they took care of the golden state warriors 11395. that's when number 28 for the cabs, the season with just full loss of various gone and top schooling was 25 points on
