people matter just as much as you need to connect with our community and be part of the conversation, we feel very unsafe because of the 2nd 12 presidency, they don't see the need and then trying to appease the people on social media. the stream on out to 0, the, the a temporary reprieve, and prove when conditions are helping firefighters especially huge well funds across besides this county of left a trail destruction i rob reynolds in malibu, california awhile. flyers have reduced each side homes to smoking will have enough the on the clock. this is out 0 life and also coming up is randy strikes hit to the

targets in yeah, men including a power station and 2 poles. these 2 denise of loss. nearly everything the ongoing war, including the will bring you the story from an internally displaced and defying international tools to step aside because we did our thoughts at the time this venezuela's prison. the police are enforcing coughing to prevent looting from properties destroyed by wild fires in those sciences. thus the door and restriction applies to monday to evacuation areas firefighters are starting to make headway in the bathroom to contain 2 major $15.00. as well as several smaller 1. 11 people have been killed, more than 10000 structures destroyed since tuesday. here's some of the worst affected areas in los angeles. the fire in the pacific palisades remains the largest and most destructive in the counties history. it spread across to $8000.00

hector's. i'm sorry to say is now 8 percent contained the ken of fi, just north of color. besides is the, is one of the latest to ignite firefighters of matters to containment. police arrested an individual suspects the starting, mis 5 related to of, to interviewing him. there was no probable cause to hold him on suspicion of allison. i mean it's and find the pasadena is the deadliest 6 of the 10 victims died, the, the areas in orange on the evacuation notice because there is an immediate threat to life. rob reynolds has moved now from malibu. i'm standing by the edge of the pacific ocean in malibu. this is a place that is so well know worldwide is the for its features, surfing its celebrities. it's mansions, the scene of so many television programs and movies and now just look at what's left of this section of this famous flight. nothing

charged racket, smouldering roofs, black and palm trees. this truly is paradise lost. there's no other word for it. as far as the death toll from this horrible outbreak of wildfires that battered los angeles, it stands right now in the double digits, but it is expected to go much higher. the sheriff of los angeles county, robert luna, quoted as saying the, we don't know that half of it yet as teams, 1st responders go from door to door in ravaged neighborhood some with the advert dogs searching for human remains, hoping not to find them, but knowing almost certainly that the total is going to be much higher as far as the material disruption. it's incalculable,

certainly in the hundreds and hundreds of billions and the emotional toll on the city of los angeles as a whole, even for those who were not directly affected for those who didn't lose their homes or their friends homes or possessions. it's, it's a very, very heavy, a heart breaking situation and now firefighters say that they are gaining some containment on the major fires. that's really good news. but with this very dry weather that we've been having 8 months of route and the forecasts for more winds on their way. los angeles unfortunately, is not yet out of danger. rob reynolds, l, just the euro. malibu california as well as a backdrop to this series of reports. so from that 2024 was the health this year on record scientist for the world meter illogical organizations and the use copernicus, climate change service found temperature as well as yet far exceeded the $1.00

degrees target. not any, was it the woman's here on record some of the months with the wellness? today, the health is 10 years on record going back to 18. 50 will be the past 10 years. ok . viruses will meet your logical organizations, deputy secretary general, and she says, greenhouse gas emissions just needs because to address the rising temperatures, it is every fraction of a degree of warming, we are seeing an increased risk from climate change and the kinds of things that we're seeing that's just devastating right now and less the los angeles is unfortunately more and more the kinds of things that we scientists have predicted we would see and that we are seeing. there's really no substitute for reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. that's the core driver for climate change, and that is the key solution to as addressing this problem. of course, you know, right now we also have to start adapting to climate change. so we need to,

you know, recognize that we are seeing increased risk so fires where i come from in western north carolina. we just experienced a major flood with hurricane helene. and increasingly, all across the globe were seeing the impacts of climate change manifest right now that we have to adapt to their needs to be major changes that are driven from the top down in terms of governmental policies, etc, investments, and new technologies, etc. but each of us has the ability to change, make some changes in our life that can make a difference. and those differences can expand out to our communities and actually play a pretty significant role. the judge has ruled to unconditionally discharge president elect. donald trump favor his hush money conviction. trump made a virtual parents during his sentencing in the new york court room. he was convicted for fortunately, manipulating business, reckless to cover up in the lead centurylink counter with an adult film stuff ahead

of the 2016 and that she trump will not face any jail time or fines. she called the hearing a despicable shirad. patrick o haines has moved out from washington. he was very much clearly unhappy to be there, appearing virtually indeed to the near court room scowling. crossing his arms, he really went to great lengths with his lawyers to try and keep today from happening even going all the way to the supreme court, which just hours before, in the sense they were supposed to take place said no, we're not going to intervene. so why was he so worried about this happening? because now he is a convicted felon. you can't call him that yet until it's actually entered into the record. even though he'll have no punishment, he will always have that title of a convicted felon. and that we've never had a president who's been a convicted felon. so what's this all about? remember was just about the 2016 election. and his team got word that this adult

film actor as it goes by the screen name of stormy daniels was gonna sell her story to the tablets. a legend unless she had had a fair with donald trump, who was married at the time. now just remember the context of this donald trump had a huge following with evangelical christians, who might not one who voted for him. if they thought he had an affair with an adult film actress again, well married. so the jury found the trump directed michael cohen, his fixer, who did serve time for it, but partially for his role. and this to pay stormy daniels a $130000.00. they found trump guilty of that and also falsifying records to try and keep it quiet. so there are a couple of options for the judge going into today. he could have sentenced him to 4 years in jail, obviously, very unlikely parole a fine. but no, he chose just basically clear the conviction. so what does that mean? it means that he's a felon won't be punished for, but he is now

a convicted felon. a freight environment is a professor emeritus at the university of missouri school of little. he's also a former federal and state prosecutor and says the ruling was not surprised. i think that had he not been elected president, i think one might have expected. he would have gotten some jail time. not so much for the severity of the offense, which was always based on the conviction was always based on something of an imaginative legal theory. but his behavior before, during and after the case was extraordinarily contemptuous of the judge and jury. the prosecutors, the entire system and customarily, if you behave that way and you were convicted of a felony and the result is that you are going to do some time. but the judge, i think, recognize the reality, which is it would be functionally impossible to try to impose any kind of custodial sentence on a guy who is about to be president the united states. arguably, it wouldn't be legal, but he said he certainly couldn't compel a trump to report for any such and such sentence. so it's hardly surprising that

this happened. and the one thing that is worth mentioning here is that although this non punishment and a sense is disappointing for those who are particularly critical of mr. trump's behavior, what happened today does finalize the conviction up to this point, one could not legally have said the donald trump was a convicted felon. the thing that makes somebody convicted felon is the entry up to the judgment of the sentence that occurred today. so although he's going to appeal this guys, he is now officially, uh, a convicted felon. is there any military has conducted new bras tanks across the yemen, saying it was targeting me? see infrastructure prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the army will continue to hit the admin in retaliation for the who is these drugs on israel? how much, how g, as this report now?

those guys will city the attacking. i'll change the neighborhood also, i shop a refuge account and as a to a neighborhood, but gosh, enjoy your neighborhood has, what are we on a solution? why that is, why the army on his radio tax, at this moment, the casualties, as long as the people are arriving for the hosting fee, which suffering from a sufficient stage of where they can supplies as a specialist to the situation. and the scenario is the same in the northern doesn't sweat because we are diverse concepts. oh, really kind of stuff in the engine ages hospital was these right. all make a decision to the hospital and the all the choir director, the hospital. right. and there is no, i need water also that which far as the dumpsters that to use the method kills a solution. understood. oh, well, so this is the overall situation at the moment seeing causes and the northern goes with the web and the z and the directors of the, uh,

hospitals are told and gets old and it's a national community to afford the hospitals with the medical supplies and the specialist they'll close to will until the way, if really as the 1st law here cannot deal with it, what to kill a case is as the case is, is arriving to all the hospital is really a cortico as really a multi trauma. that's why the director of the hospital here is going to total into nursing communities to afford the needed medical supplies and they needed a specialist and to allow also the medical convoys to arrive to go to the city here in central draws. and it's really driven strike targeted gathering in the bridge a refugee camp, at least 5 palestinians were killed in the top target, i presume, has more details from there about in central 1000 the natalie top pennies for that tax. and because of strep since the early hours of this morning,

and the situation has been excessive painting as to some set here in the spread, what we understand that the concentration has pretty much on the central areas. we have had huge explosions just chattering the science of night. i was the rock took huge account and we have to go more imagined reports come and go from the administer off to the communication. suggesting that we that because a stripe is expected to witness a gradual drop down with communications and internet services due to the deflection of the q. and this will be another gradual escalation, also is taking place um it uh no sorts of slowing in terms of the deluxe that to you as well. yeah. attached in the central area and on the uh, the other part of the gaza strip, which has been a very active military cl for the latest confrontations will mountains of dep raised i've been left behind. these is rarely a tax in buddha,

towns and villages such as devali a bank. not yet a bait tunnel and along with a very sol ring desktop also continues to rise up by the 5, but by the minutes old areas of confrontation areas. also that web is ignited to be safe for palestinians tire companies, and i'll just do their posts on the head here. now this area will look at the potential impact of new us sanctions against russia, targeting its energy sector the . so hello that let's have a look at the weather across north america. and the story has been about those devastating wild fires across the west coast in california with west wald, 5 and history reported in lay. now the good news is on saturday,

the winds offset to die down, but we aren't seeing much in the way of west. so whether that could help with containment. instead we've seen some very nasty weather weather move across the southeast of the us towards the eastern seaboard that went to school. now please out to see behind it. it is looking a lot clearer. there's more winter weather to come across to know the rockies. with some heavy snow moving across the midwest and the great lake, so it remains bitterly cold. and you can see that the arctic sweeping down is not just being felt across the south west of the us, but also into northern mexico. we have a monterey where on the 8 degrees celsius on fact today, the good news is though that temperature gets kicked right up to 20 degrees celsius . will see you subscribe to the showers from mexico city, but it is a long while for the you can time financial a y as well for costa rica and panama. and there's a sunshine dominating across the caribbean.

hidden insides and communities across india. is it definitely fine, especially the world's largest importance in the uses, especially in new products, from roosting to call leaving work is with a dangerous one on the east investigate, especially in just sign in on out. is there a showcase of the best document? truth films from across the network on al jazeera, the, or the

you watching out 0 reminder about top stories is an easy windsor helping 55, just to make headway as a try to contain several well, 5 in los angeles county, at least 11 people have been killed in thousands of buildings destroyed since choose these really mean latrice conducted numerous times across the m and say it was taught to increase the infrastructure. a prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the army will continue to hit him and in retaliation to the rebels, strikes on israel. know millions of suited needs to be forced to flee the homes because of escalating finance more than a year for more than a year and a half. the army and the power military rapids support forces have been fighting many of those who have been internally displaced, to seeking refuge and the blue nile state. and southern to don. officials say tens of thousands of people were forced to escape to the city about them as private calls, as this of these camps and altima z and are being over whelmed with people.

searching for safety officials say more than 100000 people have come to this part of sudan, swing violence across the blue nile states. how uh escaped on foot with her children, but she lost her husband in the fighting. but when he got that, when my husband was killed in our house, i heard gunshots. when i went back in, i found him did. he was still bleeding. but we'll have, if we don't die from gunfire, hunger will get us. but we left my elderly step mother behind. we don't know what's happened to her. if she's dead or alive is not. she's not the only one here who's paid a high price in this war. many have lost loved ones and everything they own. why did he say center? it's now been

a year since i've been back home to my home. i heard it was robbed. what was left was thankfully saved by my neighbors. my husband was renovating the house. now the situation was very bad. we were beaten, but we survived thanks to god. he may be on these rows of tends our home to some 24000 people. now it's the largest of about $120.00 centers. but despite the aid coming in student needs, officials say the disaster is outpacing scarce resources. a minute, i'm a good the we are currently providing super options through the work program. we offer organized directions on a month to month basis, and we have organizations work in the health sector as well. harbor the need, it's graded as a number of displaced. people continues to increase. the influx of displaced people into the city of al dema zene. the capital of the blue nile state has put intense pressure on services in the city. those who find themselves having to flee to

safety also find themselves in increasingly desperate conditions with no end in sight. the conflict that brought them here rarely carlson algebra. united states has hit russia with the broad as package of sanctions so far with the officials say it will cost most given millions of dollars per month. us officials say that targeting oil and gas companies label all prices jump more than 3 percent ahead of the treasury announcement, which also science is a $183.00 oil tank because the criminal accused the white house of leaving a toxic legacy days before president joe biden leads office, mike kind of has more from washington, dc by the ministration. officials say these are the most stringent sanctions, yet imposed on russia. they have focused on 2 of russia's biggest energy companies . and very importantly, have also focused on more than $180.00 vessels. now the significance of this is that these were what are called

a shadow vessels. they would vessels with breaking existing sanctions by flying and the, and the other countries flags, and also older vessels that could not be easily categorized. they have now focused on these vessels, which the officials say could lead to a mess of financial loss for the russian government. now the question is whether these sanctions will remain in place when the trump administration takes over soon . we have heard from the man nominated to be the national security adviser. michael was saying that he welcome sanctions against russia because he believes they can be used as a liver to encourage encourage the negotiation that the president elect. donald trump says he wants to engage in with the russian lead to vladimir putin. so at this particular stage, given all these factors, given the fact too that a bite and administration officials say this little come back in terms of economy. economic could the united states, given that inflation is low,

given that is expected, they will be an oil black in coming months. so put all these factors together and it would appear that the sanctions will last into the trump administration. for how long will that is something that will have to watch and wait to see as the administration, the new administration plays out. it's new diplomatic agenda. my kind of, i'll just see era washington. well, adam adam smith is an international trade partner. the law firm gibson done in the culture and has also served as a sanctions official in the us treasury. he says, imposing sanctions on the russian energy produces this new charge treat for the us government until fairly recently, energy has been a 3rd rail. the us has been unwilling to really go after energy for fear of price hikes for gas, for gas users in the us and europe, especially in the winter. and so the idea of going after energy i in a very direct way here, which they started the little bit of november going up the gas problem bank. and

now actually going after actual energy producers is a very big, big new. and this could give rise to significant pain, a buy president put in if it's enforced as robustly as it could be. and so i do think that's really a question now of enforcement and whether or not the g 7, not just the us, not just the but the broader g 7 is willing to not just impose these sorts of restrictions, which of course are not self executing. and then make sure the parties who nonetheless engage with parties who are listed, get in trouble for doing so. so really is a question of enforcement and i think has been patchy and i, but i think that's one of the big questions with respect your president. trump is whether or not you will use these tools and not just impose more sections which enforce them if they're violated. because much of the russian government says that the sanctions are implemented. the impact of that's just not true. and they certainly want them to be removed and the characters having improved may be a very important part of any sort of negotiation with respect to mr pollutant. mr.

zaleski try to finally end this of the legal war that russian started. nicholas madera has been sworn in for a 3rd a 6 year time span, as well as president sermon. he went ahead despite international goals for him to start and decide after july's dispute to the election. the countries talked coats declared with during the winter, but detailed voting tallies have never been published. lots of america edited lucy and even has more now from santiago in chile to swimming into the 3rd consecutive terms. nicholas my little lashed out of critics at home and abroad . say there's credible evidence that he stole last july's presidential elections. vi they'll say won't, you won't do what you must. but this constitutional investiture could not be stopped. and as a great victory for democracy and venezuela. this was precisely the didn't missy of his election, which the opposition claims to have one violent side to do this refusal to present

tally sheets to prove that he won. as the law demands unleashed an uproar in the region and beyond half a dozen countries including the united states, formerly recognized it desired, the opposition candidate and wounded will silas, as when, as well as rightful president law. told yeah, washington to offered $25000000.00 for information leading to the risk and conviction on charges of alleged narco terrorism. the same applies to his close estates. d. u has also slapped sanctions on venezuela and officials, accused of human rights violations. and as never before, my google is isolated in his own region. this is why i went as well as embassy instead of capital jelly used to operate until after the elections when both countries virtually severed ties. in fact, all but to latin american countries in nicaragua and cuba have either caught their

diplomatic relations altogether or distance themselves from. however, venezuela's government has other more powerful allies restaurant and china sent top 2 leaders of the duma and the people's congress to the inauguration to underscore their support as well as a wrong india no peck. meanwhile, it wounded gonzales failed to make good on his vow to return to the in his way left to claim the presidential sash in the face of searching the rest in the suite at the moon, the will come to venezuela to be sworn in as constitutional president of venezuela at the right time when the conditions are right tensions remain very high, as evidenced by looters decision to close and as well as air space and border crossings with neighboring brazil and columbia to keep out those whom he says are

enemies of the government. to see a newman al jazeera santiago, this is for a minute sir, is called for sanctions on syria to be lifted during a visit to damascus. he met the leader of the new administration. i'm going to shut off, as well as the foreign minister said al shabani of mohammed has this report now from damascus. another you're paying for in minnesota, visiting damascus. this time, if there is chief diploma on tony with a johnny top up the agenda, the functions of seat of the chinese visit comes a day of that. you'll get a meeting with the secretary of state and tony blink it on your phone and ministers to discuss the situation in syria and normally the cat, the appropriate unaudited us during these talks last night. we concentrated on the importance of lifting the sanctions on it. the sanctions were imposed on the previous reaching the ousted routine and the sanctions hit. the syrian people they must be lifted.
