a threatening any one to remain inside the hospital wanted everyone to evacuate immediately. similar to what happened to the agent huffman, and now that concerning part of this, as many of the people inside these 2 health facilities are in fact people who were forcibly it's made to leave a come out one hospital when it was going by the is really monitors, we really talk about people in, in, in critical divisions and terminal in terms of their health. uh, do you need it to be attacked and medical equipment. some of the injuries is suffered and sustained and critical injuries that they needed to be inside a hospital or health disparity should receive a proper medical care. a lot of them are on patches because of all the injuries in their more lives. so it's hard for them to walk for a long distance, particularly if we think of these the factors in order to ridiculous of from asian hospital or allow that for the northern part all the way through western. 4 of the
2:04 am
of golf and city wiley is really a military blocking deliberately, any sort of for the nation with the red cross with other organizations that are always at toward the dating. the valuation of patients and injuries admitted goes up from the huffman. as of this moment, no one has left the hospital and the pressure is increasing on the health facility . the repeated attacks by the artillery is the, the, the intimidation it created by the drones and by the, the glass top does that cover at a very low level just created a, a level of fear and terror, particularly with, with the children. many of the people have their children with them, their families, it shows during inside the hospital as they could not evacuated to what springs golf in the city it's, it's the freight of everyone inside allowed. and then did he get hosted with us is unknown right now. we don't know if the i will actually make it out of the hospital
2:05 am
out of this moment. or if there's any sort of coordination. but we know for a box that is really military has cut off these 2 facilities for the past week, from any sort of connection or communication with the outside world, as well as cutting them off or from receiving any proper supplies necessitated including water fluids and medical supplies since the beginning of the war, hospitals and other vice little medical facilities have been repeatedly targeted by is rarely forces a recent un before it said that is really strikes on and near hospitals have pushed the health care system to the brink of title collapse. the world health organization has documented $654.00 attacks on health care facilities in gaza since october of 2023, leaving many of them completely out of service. the un says only 17 of gauze us assess the 6 hospitals are still functioning and only partially with non providing

full service is due to a shortage of stuff and equipment. the w h a is representative for the occupied palestinian territory said that out of hospital in the north is the only remaining partially functioning hospital. and as we mentioned, the un security council has held a meeting to discuss the is ready evacuation order. the meeting was cooled off, the israel destroyed the come on hospital after a siege that lost it weeks, and it's direct to it was apprehended by is rarely forces out to zeros. gabriel, as on de reports from new york during an emergency un security council meeting, the world health organization urge is real. to resend its evacuation demands about allowed to a hospital in indonesian hospital all are, which is the last remaining minimal functional scope in north casa, is struggling to stay all food in water. if you are depleting fast,

2:08 am
and precautions still apply. made it very opperation must always distinguish between military targets and civilians. the use of heavy weapons against hospitals is difficult to reconcile with that principle, most council members agreed. there is no justification under any circumstances for harm and civilians and medical personnel cling, bahamas and other groups haven't misused the facility. simply does not less than the burden of these royal serv. it's legal obligation on the issue. there was evidence here at the security council that the international community has growing concerns about the dangerous precedent of being set by israel's continued bombardment of hospitals, places that are supposed to help the sick and wounded, but increasingly becoming targets themselves. gabriel's on, i'll just say to united nations in new york,

2:10 am
and skeptical european officials. oh paul, good. when tested to europe is prepared to offer support. europe will not be a sponsor if you knew as long as structures. this is not only an all or an interest, but it is also everything that i've had time. and again, from the many, many people from syria in germany, but also from the many syrians here in the region. earlier in the day, the german diplomat met the white helmets. the search and rescue teams hope break danger and battle bones. during the war, the bulk was later joined by her friends. going to box joe new with bottle. this is the desk of what assets opponents were detained. thousands were executed. families are still looking for the missing. as the counter tells the top to on the talk, let's see, the west, the is serial remains vulnerable and i still remains a may just about
2:11 am
a sovereign and secure serial. cannot leave any place for is not mist terrorism. terrorism has struck you. terrorism has struck us, you know, flesh that's why we fought side by side. alongside the codes in the northwest of syria against is not mist terrorism. the french would reopen that embassy to seize the full of us as a growing number of regional and international delegations have reached out to the authorities here to help the country and it's transitional process. so we as new need as were hoping for sanctions to be lifted by the french and german ministers, told them that won't happen. now. the french and german ministers say they are here to show support for the syrian people. first and foremost of the path to full diplomatic recognition, they take some time. they want to just then you administration based on what happens during the transition and see how it goes. but there is
2:12 am
a recognition among the europeans that there's a new political reality that they would have to deal with passion about. but i just the right domestic us satellite images have revealed the is ready, is moving beyond the occupied guideline heights and reinforcing its presence in the syrian town of to nature says the voice of the asset regime last month. these are the army has also shots that protest is on deployed soldiers in the city. israel began expanding its occupation of the sierra and gallon heights off the bottle. i said will still fold on december. the 8th. the un says israel's me violates the 1974 agreement with syria to disengage its forces as on a bench of 8 is into nature and southwest in syria. and he reports on the multiple is reading cousins and phone things across the country. the dot is, it is really time consuming and so it is there any forces have continued to expand the occupation of city integrity in the last few weeks. this is valid on the
2:13 am
outskirts of this town is the village of having the which has been cut off by is really forces. and people here see, telling us of how difficult life has been under the is really occupation forces these, this place here, that there is contracts all around. this is go into the streets towards this either side. and people say that they are living in fear because these night patrols have become bolder and deeper satellite images have shown is really forces digging upfront is, is really bulldozers and ministry vehicles coming deeper into the territory. and it feels that it is being set up for a longer presence in contravention of the 1974 convention, and according to which after the occupied golan heights, there is a buffer zone, which would mean it didn't mean to try zone. but that is not the case, and is really forced, is continued to come deeper. and people here say that be afraid off is really all condition expanding to more areas and then being forced out of their homes. i've
2:14 am
done some of the machine. these riley colonizers started an attack on us from deliberate to the area that was between us and across the distance of 13 kilometer . as i said, they are still terrorizing us with that time they in might for how and in addition to the government versions is really forces have also continued the indian attacks into city and 3rd street level. the latest place which are being had the guarding to is really forces a rep in the manufacturing research center. in the last $24.00 or 48 hours, damascus can decide there's also be met. you've seen that they often mazda of districts which are being carried out against all of the targets which belong to the. busy the military of a uh, air defenses, the naval capabilities, minifee, hardware and depots, have all been struck. and there seems to be anger here of amongst the people because they feel that is really his head thing. what was built by the taxpayers money, it wasn't the person,
2:15 am
the property of either diminishes or the aside the regime. and this feel that they seem to be abandoned by the international community as well. they just continue. there's plenty of activity in and out of damascus, but nobody seems to be talking about the occupation. is there any forces coming deeper into their tired feed? people have been showing this images of what just discrete looked like with trees of been uprooted, and homes have been destroyed and people have been displaced. so it is, uh, it comes with, with warnings that have you been hearing from the jordanians, and the church about how is really needs to respect serious sovereignty and territorial integrity. so here in coordinator, people continue to live in fear and the expect to from the government. do it please do something to try and protect their lives because they feel that the, the shot of the subdivision has not been replaced by israel. so i'm going to have it as a data when i of the
2:16 am
date has been said for you as president elect donald trump, to be sentenced in his hush money. criminal conviction is scheduled for next friday . 10 days before his integration, the president elect was convicted of the c full council, falsifying business statements in relation to a harsh money payment made during his 2016 presidential campaign. let's cross now to heidi to a castro in washington dc. hi, be very good to see if i could speak to you. now. we've come to expect the unexpected by now when it comes to donald trump, but even now he's on close to be the 1st president to take office convicted of felony crimes. can you tell us what else the judge said to? yes, elena, the judge said that not only will this sentencing take place one week from today, but that he expects not to be sentencing donald trump to any jail time. he said,
2:17 am
rather he would likely sentenced the president love to unconditional discharge, which essentially means no severe punishment. but those felony convictions, all $34.00 of them will be in trumps record. and so he would, in fact, become the 1st us president was selling not only convicted, but also sentenced. now the judge and his ruling today about the sentencing call. trump's con condos. for what she was convicted pre meditated in continuous deception by the leader of the free world. but equally strong words were given back by trump spokesperson, who quickly responded to the sentencing hearing being set, saying there shouldn't be no sentencing. calling this political, which one along with the other cases that trump once faced. and heidi, can you just remind of us about the context of this case and how it came about a yeah, well this is just one of the 4 criminal cases that trump space leading up to this
2:18 am
last election. but this was the only one that went to trial and for what she was found guilty. but then he did go on to when in november. and so both sides, in fact, had argued that likely there would be no sentencing. before inoculation day trumps teen wanted this case to be dismissed altogether. arguing that the us supreme court issued an opinion saying that trump would be have presidential immunity. now that he's going back to the white house, well, the judge dismissed that argument in his a ruling today. but surprisingly, he also dismissed what prosecutors had asked where, which was to push back the center, the thing to after trump finishes the 2nd term in the white house. that was a surprise to all the reasoning the judge gave, as he said that this rapid sentencing would allow trump then to file an appeal of his conviction, which he has indicated he wants to do. but in fact, his team has already indicated they would likely can appeal that this sentence even
2:19 am
takes place at all on january 10th. so whether or not this happens is really all up in the air and a case that the judge himself described in his ruling today as i'm president, it and likely never should be repeated legal scenario. all right, thank you so much for that. heidi, heidi drug house throw live for us from washington dc. i still had the knowledge a 0 no. and fisher on capitol hill in washington. what donald trump is secure a big sick today. even before he gets to the white house, the had a low they, let's have a look at the weather across north america and we've got another optic blast coming in. we're going to see a cold spell sweep across more eastern areas of the us,
