cold and heavy rains as well. how will people coping well just to kind the internally displaced in tunnels instead of displace some of these are holes in the grid of the schools with us? that's enough for us to go to fred, leaving them quite fun level to cope with the current situation. we understand that families are living and make ship 10 starts quite like whole source of basic mississippi's and without prop installation and teaching systems, they are enduring freezing temperatures. that's completely affect on them negatively in a very on imaginable by the children of the most vulnerable. in fact, uh they were left. she brings under their in blankets as their buddies to not with the found this child. many of them are really suffering from a respite rotary. so this is as the, the as parents are trying to shield their,

their children by old pulse of means left, including their gathering around their make shipped uh, fires as the collect. anything that a big can use for binding, including a wood, plastic sheets or even scraps of the priest just to provide their children with a sense of form that even sometimes the cost of their health conditions are due to the toxic fumes. the result of the, from such a fight is being made so absolutely, the situation for them is incredibly chaotic and many of them right now are trying to shield their make shift tons with blankets. and sometimes they are unable to keep pulled out of the make shift shelters the due to the floods of hipaa rains. that storm. these make shift tens, turning them quite to pools of water a month in fact. and to eric, meanwhile, is rarely strikes dogs in several areas across the street on wednesday. talk us

through these latest strikes as well. this situation has been quite precarious. but let me 1st to start with the latest developments coming from the 60 off con units. we've got reports that 2 civilians were confirmed, killed the one of the latest provides of attacks launch by use by the tribes on a group of civilians in a month. all right, neighborhoods do big since how big and targeted without any warning of the parties have been transported to an officer hospital to be prepared for burial. but elsewhere, we have continued to get reports of new types taking place on the facility of commodities, while hospital as the military operation that is still ongoing with a very remarkable search. up to the trade show peroration by ground forces, binding residential buildings can be north of the strip, but the desktop has been quite staggering since don't hours today was 17 post indians have been confirmed due in 2 separate strikes. one has took place in the

value of the town and the 2nd one is on a bridge, which is far columbus has a way from where we are in the seventy's civilians white tubes including children and the bus majority of those who weren't killed with, from the same family, which could be a very tragic scene. the palestinians have been going through over the, over the course of the past 14 months, up to now each by the trends are quite seen a christmas kind of the central area which could be assigned or the potential attacks that could take place within the coming hours time thank you. that's type of a as in reporting from data by the in central concept of the united nations and agencies . a warning as alarming rates of contamination in guns as water supply and emergency water quality survey was conducted between december 1st and 23rd. if phones at nearly 73 percent of drinking water and to move in 97 percent of domestic

water samples did not contain the minimum amount of corey needed to make it safe. 19 percent of the samples collected were contaminated with sewage in health care facilities. this range was more than 21 percent. the pool water quality is caused by israel's blockade. does cut off access to water testing, equipment, and disinfectants. israel has also destroyed guns as water quality control system. samuel audion is the director of the sense of what is mom and global affairs is symbols in university. he says there's notion of international pressure on israel. just jump acts of genocide in gaza. the international community hasn't been doing anything treated to solicit, they don't have any needs, any thoughts. the force is to do anything they have 0 leverage is always been concerning the situation for a long time because none of the actors with very few exceptions like that. how is any of them, are willing to actually force is for him to give up any kind of concession on this

area. so you need to concession it's international law. what is, what is it being done is violating international law, left and right. and it hasn't been, any method is able to bring it to a to under control. and that's the problem because i say, so those are the whether it's the, you know, the other pilots are not willing to do anything about it. so they just, you know, shrug and, and, and look the other way and the, the, the, the victims of this genocide, the victims of these word problems are the for this thing. it's a pain heavy price because of this simply, that's the word order. this is a national was the, as, as, as lost its meaning. and i think that would be the huge price of the word would have to pay after the end of this genocide, the new year in damascus and a new administration. serious leaders have been working to build relations with the

outside world. less than a month onto the side regime fell in an exclusive interview with the 0. the foreign minister said shavani outlined to the goals of the administration. this was how damascus i should in 2025, giovanni told elda 0. he's hoping for a united syria and stability in the region. us up at the end of the level, we have met with the us delegation several times and decent. they have an interest in violence against my notice was a may not part of the discussions. we have proven that we have seen a rational approach may be the 1st time in history, a rational but through us being weak, calculated politically, and avoided a descent into civil war. just as we celebrate the deliberation of damascus, we've also relief to prevent our country from slipping into civil uh we have overcome to how despond. underwrote had which focus under consideration and so

cycled heating, welcome. this has been under we over the past week. we had several meetings with all 6 cd, 3 of funding units, you'll see the antenna and the unity of the ceiling and people. we usually just label us having minorities and city are. there are no minorities here. they are only the city and people. obviously, i'm concerned that the american focus on these issues and what might be an unbuttoned people enforcing the vision from things eating and society and actually contribute to its frequent patients as a city. and we know our interest and health and live together over the past month. under the most difficult circumstances, and we have demonstrated us patients while in unified and equitable country where everyone leave equality and justice just had let spring. and how minute 100 saloon, who is an assistant professor and critical security studies at the don't institute for graduate studies. thank you for joining us on, on out a 0. let's begin with this interview. and what was said,

the message that was reiterated a few times that the reason for sanctions has already been result that syria is already taking meaningful steps towards having these governance structures. how do you perceive that this, this month has actually been, have we seen successful reforms in that sense? well, judging by only a few weeks old administration, they have been doing really well. and they have been sending the wi signals originally and internationally. and i think it is about tying the sanctions be lifted, the us government as well. they're sent the signals that they are satisfied, at least with the administration's performance. so far, the last night the same administration met with minorities, the christian minorities are they are trying to send signals to the international community that they are going to be a stabilizing force in a volatile region. so i think they have made progress, but it is, you know, we're looking forward to the coming weeks and see what they are going to do. because the big challenge in front of the new administration is how they can

integrate all the different sections on a non, on the position of fractions into one meaningful structure of governors. this is going to be the major challenge, but to do that they would need all the resources available, including lifting the sanctions even lifted. the sanctions is not the magical one and that way to resolve all the issues, but at least it would leave the challenges they have had. and i think it's about time the sections are listed on the message of unity of a unified syria was reiterated a few times in the interview without a 0. is this something that right now seems quite promising because we also had, we have were of course looking ahead to the national dialogue conference with her that that will involve various sectors of the community. it will involve women, women, and use, and also minorities as well. what action actually needs to be taken so that this becomes not just about words in what's being said and the right things being said,

but actually the right things being done. mm hm. so that would have to be consolidated with policies later. but for the time being, the messaging behind unified syria is both local and regional because the countries in the region they have voice, their concerns that they would not support a divide to syria. they don't want to see syria divided, and this is included in iran. surprisingly, not only a regional or a countries. so the signal is that we will have a unified syria both internally. that would be inclusive of all minorities can include in the codes because, you know, because issues your issue is still hanging up there. but also, you know, other minorities, they have their own fields and we're talking about, you know, sidney. she lights, christians and other minorities. so i think the messaging is that we will have the unified syria that is inclusive and ruled, you know, under a pro,

for the type of a governess. because there are a few years in the region that the new administration has a certain color. they have a such an ideology and this is, i think, the new administration sending messages to collin to the few like the perceptions of the, the regional international perceptions of the new administration saying that no, we're going to have a different type of governance that is inclusive as send and uh, you know, messages to countries such as the united states, the united kingdom and also out of countries in the region that we will be cooperating to stabilize the region. not only syria. thank you so much for your analysis of the honda saloon. from the doha institute for graduate studies. thank you. the still ahead on, i'll just and you would ministration brings home for serious cultural heritage. we look at assets to renovate the ancient level. it's a down and ukraine says it's drunk,

an oil demco in western russia. we'll have all the details on the drone attacks from both sides. the not much of a heavy rain that was headed for vietnam is just off congress, but it is still potentially pretty wet all the way from central viet and around the corner. now admittedly, this is the time the where you might expect to see seasonal writing, but it should be moving south and it's just reluctant. so it's a do, however, it steady drawing are in thailand shall return, independent, simulates your hands to monitor and particularly that's your java. they're reading tropical plants. awful started. in fact, the concentration of sherry stuff. it's on the stones, obviously, mostly are in queensland, south of that is much drive the wind coming off shore means temperatures have dropped here. $21.00 in melbourne towards done in adelaide in paris. in contrast,

as round about the city mark, it might get tulsa and then, and you can see the doc red straight from the west, then tails off in the back of new south wales. wait, wait and stay there. usually you find the bones goes from west to east, so allies up to 35 all the time. you get to friday now, but it's listed to $29.00. not they'll be any change in the weather. target have to say no buttons. weather does get hotter, but nothing else happens. approximate breeze actually interior maybe some evening, sunday late in the day, but most of the range is going to be fairly knowles. you're facing the new zealand . your rain is going away for 50 of the we are going to see the series 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 and the again this is a reminder of our top stories. this our thousands of tents in guns over main, flooded as severe weather continues. most of the population has been displaced by relentless, rarely bombardments. the u. n. is warning about the spread of preventable diseases is rarely forces have killed at least 17 people in gaza since dawn on wednesday as

as implies the control that succeeded one another. it was 10 due to a faulty fight, a boat for kings on substance, time invasions unnatural origins. after you click on the add to to it, see studies value of a ton of colors. the cost a little of a lift is a special tourist attraction with great symbolism for syrians and now with needs repair and the rehabilitation of its basic infrastructure, including water, electricity communications, interest passages, we'll call them during the civil war. the said on the turn, the costs on the to an observation top and the launch pad full snipers, wireless airplanes. finally, the civilian areas on the place. the attacks destroyed some of the oldest historic buildings via the castle. the area became unsafe for 2 days. and instead of a 2023 to a squeeze suit the seat of then leaving cox on some of its walls,

including lemme d from you. we'd most probably say in las vegas, november the 4th 2010, syria used to receive up to 3000000 tourists a year. most of them would visit a level just to see the war has disrupted that. and what things have now changed, the border crossings in airports should reopen, so the tourists are going to return to syria when you come on. after the fall of the outside, the g. c thought that it has to bring back to life with a spontaneous festivities. and a rise in the number of local visitors handled in an optimal speed of hope for a state of syria. how much fun does 0. i look for the russian energy company goes problems as a natural gas exploits to your find. ukraine has been hold it. the flow stopped in

the early hours of new year's day when a transit deal expired. the european commission says men, the states have arranged alternative supplies. or meanwhile, russia's military has launched a drone strength on ukraine's capital cave. explosions were heard off to the air force wound up drones approaching the city. early on new year's day, the mayor of cave says at least 3 people have been injured and 2 buildings on damage. well, let's go live now to jonah ho who is in cave. jonah took us through the attack on the capital where you are well, just, i was off the presidency landscape, released a new a video message at probably the 2025 would bring it into the wall with russia door . and on the 1st of january, it was broken by the sound of air raid sirens,

going off around the capital here and defense is engaged. we're told that over a 110 russian aero drones were on their way to targets in ukraine. and how many of them were heading here, but a short while, a to 3 loud explosions. very close to where understanding this hotel and very close indeed to the heart of the government area. and i can tell you that just on the other side of this building now, there is a pretty substantial emergency response operation going on 2 buildings on file, the one known residential, the other, a residential building, and a little update on those casualties. because we understand that the last few moments, one body has been found in the rubble at 6 people injured in taken the hospital. we were told that these were caused by folding fragments. so debris of drugs that had been intercepted, but one of them, at least i can tell you, and i can tell you because we heard it very clearly. we filled that footage you've just seen. came down very much alive. it's engines screaming as it slammed into

that building. and jonah. meanwhile, the russian energy from gas from says exports through ukraine has been halted. what more do we know? yes, confirmed by that you cried inside this not unexpected president's landscape said, months ago, he had no intention of renewing the last remaining gas transit deal signed with russia in 2019 those supplies were due to stop. then on the 1st of january uh, heading towards the last remaining you customers for russian gas infinity hungry in slovakia. so lucky in particular, curious about all this is they've threatened to withhold emergency electricity supplies from you've tried, if you tried and went ahead with the shut down presidency. lensky warnings to the back arrow open, opening a new energy front in the war against russia. beside that boat, geopolitically significant, it brings to a final end. what was once russia's dominance of the e u energy market. and you'll recall that use that dominance in the past to

economically damaging effect when it would cause a high, a price is unexpectedly or threatened to turn off the types in the midst of winter . and of course, that has come with a price for the european union itself. diversifying supply would towards more expensive liquid natural gas products into an palming economic output of the block and causing really worries about its future. global competitiveness. doing a thank you. that's doing a whole reporting from case president vladimir putin has reassured russians for the country is doing well and on track to improve in 2025 in his annual new year speech codes and made promises of prosperity and eunice he moving forward. those to jabari has moved for most of the president's lateral citizens. new jersey is message to the russian people is rough task, across 11 time zones. now in his speech, he hales the nation's resilience, and pay tribute to the soldiers in ukraine, calling them to heroes. so he avoided discussing the wars trajectory where,

you know, we are confident that everything will be fine. we will only move forward. we know for sure that the absolute value for us was, is, and will be the fate of russia, the wellbeing of its citizens. the man that's been in charge of this country for a quarter of a century has declared 2025, the year of the defender of the fatherland. now, despite putting up freed message, the move here on the streets of the capital, remain sombre. many here are hoping the new year will bring an end to the conflict in ukraine and a better economic forecasts for our population that's facing unprecedented financial challenges. door safari, l g 0, moscow. conflict between sedans, army and the power military rapids support forces expanded to new areas in 2024. displacing hundreds of thousands of people. the army launched its 1st major
