the v building and reconnecting, what they can, and many parts of the country which are offered are using alternative solutions like solar panels. the government says it is by other ties in development of the solar potential by attracting investors and turning logic in solar projects. but how much can not afford it and has to keep her children out of school and continue to button garbage to stay warm. as the sun goes down, entire neighborhoods in fayetteville, dar exhibit trimmers of light that you see this are from solar panels and thought that people have put together. the new administration says that it wants to get people to get explicit be 247 times from a freshman drone, a tax of sparked a flyer and ukraine's capital key overnight into monday. she's may or as, as no one was injured as the drone hit, a non residential building. ukraine says moscow also latasha northeastern city of

sumi where one women was injured and several homes damaged us. president donald trump says he's held a phone call with the russian leader of vladimir putin on ending the war and ukraine. but the kremlin says if counts confirm or deny that call took place, you'll get shop of all of us as a moscow with more on why the 2 sites have something different to say. as the russian side has neither confirmed nor denied the coal crumley, the spokesman to the trip, it's called retrace or that today. so that means that we can only speculate about the rest of it when the sun that the from p 10 very much into the page of negotiations will not happen immediately. and they wouldn't be easy 1st and foremost, because once you have pacing there's no, it needs to pass since indigo sage with. and he's definitely not the, the one who's going to make concessions at the same time where hearing from deputy

foreign minister gave you a call today. he's saying that most cuz he's ready for dialogue with washington, according to have called the administration of us present. donald trump is demonstrating a interest and resuming dialogue with russia. so most is ready to discuss the settlement in ukraine, but only on equal tons of cove has said that russia and the united states have set and contacts us through that foreign policy developments. but he refused to disclose any detail saying that they do not make sense. so according to the pope communication channels existence the what is in progress and there is but there is no shad you of contacts between preaching and trump kids. but i mean, no body is rooting out. that's as the situation becomes clearer, they will be agreements on that particular mindset. and that there are so many talks about the uh, uh, tools coming unix security conference would be ukrainian supplement will be discussed, of course, but a live representative for ukraine and russia case kind of said that the us peace

plants we prayed wouldn't be presented at the conference world leaders and tech executives are in the french capital for an international summit on artificial intelligence that meeting in paris aims to discuss the ethical, political, and economic challenges of a i president's mind around. my cro has unveiled plans to invest more than a $110000000000.00 and the technology in france. natasha butler reports from parent us. the french style top that is europe's big also official intelligence hope less than 2 years since its creation. we stroll a lie has secured multibillion dollar funding partners with microsoft and gain global detection. but unlike most of its american competitors, we stroll is best thing on open source technology and says it aims to make a life more accessible and diverse as a european access company. we've been focused on bringing a mentor for language is to do now to be a systems we've also been focused on bringing chico,

access to the technology for the open source. but he's been mentioning what he approaches very important to investigate on what is wrong with that spanish to do that, to a gentleman and, and they are a specifically a tune for having new teachers to all buddies. a mistrial, maybe leading europe's a. i push bought the continent is still lagging behind for now, silicon valley's take firms dominate the industry, but that could be changes. in january, chinese, still a top deep seeks done the world by releasing a low cost, high performing chat to model. the sure gets us rivals and send tech stokes, tumbling. the timing was approved for washington, just the week off the us president. donald trump unveiled the hall for trading and all of our infrastructure plans. the release of deep chic, hey i from a chinese company should be a wake up call for our industries that we need to be laser focused on competing to

in the challenges for your pin governments as to catch up with the us and china in the a i race, i'm also convinced that citizens the a like doesn't have to be scary. we can actually change their lives. the pressure probably concerns a wide spread fee is of job loss is to worries that a i could destroy to minus the one on the list says that you need to increase investment and change the narrative to stay competitive. i think the glazing is very much, maybe, but there has been an over discussion of the risks of a i, i think we need to be doesn't more about ai opportunities in europe as well in order to dig, start the bodies, the changes that they need to make you that's out to the others, the use the term and to avoid dependence on us in chinese, a or a technology box, unless the book accelerates some freshmen and innovation, it's risk being left behind in the context that is rapidly re shaping the world. patasha, butler, ultra 0, paris, the columbia as president, gustavo,

petro has ordered his entire cabinet to resign. it comes days after a heated cabinet meeting that was televised. life during which gustavo petro accused his ministers of under performing. petro says he has made the decision to ensure greater compliance. 3 government ministers have quit so far, in ecuador, as presidential election is headed for a run off the incumbent. daniel no, no book is narrowly ahead of his main rival. the left his lawyer, louisa gonzalez, by less than one percent. the election is seen as a referendum on the struggling economy and criminal violence on asunder and future reports are tighter than expected race equis, there's presidential election is set for a run of a month and there's a lot then things yeah, if this trends is maintained, ecuadorian war tons of the poles on april, the 13 incumbent president then ya know, blah will again face to left. these to be that gonzales who lost immuno snap

election 18 months ago. 37 year old son of a banana. they come to the office. but how in the hard line crack down in ecuador spiraling drug related crime. during a short term in office, he declared state of emergency multiple times, deployed the military to fight gangs, and started building a maximum security prison. the government says violent crime is down 15 percent with create exec use, the military of human rights violations, including extra judicial killings. his rival appreciate a popular but to advise the former president that i find good today. i called the result of the victory to get the bill and it was said, is this trial is for you because daniel nova represent fit and we represent hope and change. these results came through a day of peaceful voting across the country. under strict security measures. many

voters said they were disillusioned with the political system after years of economic crisis invoice ending in security. when i looked over, there was no one that is about to say, all problems will not disappear. whoever wins, because we are in the crisis, the effects of stability and security and economy devastated by corrupt government and we have seen no progress the next of months. we love to watch very hard to fix these issues. and so before the elections, bullets suggested, new boy had strong support for a full term to push that agenda. but instead, the results only deepen equities, political divide, i just have to be at the under the a log fire is spreading rapidly in the, our own connie region of central chalet firefighters are trying to contain the blaze which is approaching the outskirts of the city of coley pooley feel for it is a emergency crews are struggling with physical exhaustion as they try to tackle the

fire and the curfew in the region has been extended to help. all forward is manage that situation. okay, we're returning to our top uh, breaking news story, and the spokesperson for the military, when you're from mazda, of cassandra gauge says that the group will delay the next is really captive release until further notice. in a statement the spokesperson says they have been monitoring violations committed by israel. and these include delaying the return of displaced persons to northern gaza targeting them with shelling and gunfire and various areas of the gaza strip. and failing to allow the entry of release materials in all forms as agreed upon. well bringing or goldberg because it is really a political commentator joining us from tel aviv mister goldberg. thanks for your time. what's the reaction to 1st tell me your reaction to this? and then we'll talk about the wider sort of is really reaction that you may be hearing at this hour. so i think somebody else is attempting to call listen,

yell and trump slough. is there a certainly been violating the agreement over the past several weeks? denied entry of tense and other equipment that's part of humanitarian. hey, shooting and killing us could have done this earlier. they choose to do this now i think because everybody's still enchanted with the trump plan from us is the 1st to make a stand. so i think this is not acting out, but these are negotiations tactics. i am fairly certain of, excuse me, i'm fairly certain that a solution could be worked out by the mediators and the parties in the ha. but right now everybody is very much just at arms about everything. what, what makes you so sure. what makes you so confident that a solution will be worked out because at this hour we've also just gotten reaction from the is really defense minister who's saying this. i have instructed the

military to prepare at the highest level of read his readiness and gaza. and to defense communities costs also saying that how much does announcements it will stop releasing. the hostages is a violation of the ceasefire. deal. a he is or the defense minister has been providing a vacuous instructions for weeks. now, staying in syria, occupying janine, he is completely of no relevance to any kind of larger picture. so i put, i put no importance on anything. he says, at the moment, the reason i am cautiously optimistic that the deal will indeed go through even if there is some delay, has to do with israel weakness. and particularly when it's in the house political weakness. it has become extremely apparent over the past few days. that and it's a now finds himself in dire political straits. he has nowhere to go. despite the seemingly ringing endorsement from the trunk administration,

the more we look at the trump plan, the less nice israel has within it. and i think it is all has no option, but a complete resumption of the war which to the best of my understanding comforter man. it's the instruction slash request made by donald trump to and it anyhow. so i don't see is all going back to the war and it says ok, good. can go back to the war. the only place to which it can return is did you talk to us about the sort of is really dynamics play here in terms of where do you think the, the how do you think the opposition is going to react to this or apparently a lucky who is the leader of the opposition is on his way to an ass demonstration, either at the hostage square or very nearby. uh, they're definitely going to be demonstrations. i think it's worth just for a 2nd. trying to look at it from a broader perspective, the same people who only yesterday were up in arms of the i'm not seeing the modern

coordination of the nazis. and we would never talk to them. and we would need to wipe goes to austin that are suddenly called in for an intense negotiations from us to save the deal. so i would say that the state, so these are the politics, is at the very least chaotic. i doubt we can see any kind of concentrated movement towards one end or another, but i think it's safe to say that the great majority of these early support, the continuation of the deal. and these are the media has been publishing reports over the past few days. the government to me as intentional desire to obstruct a deal. so i think we're going to see a lot of public pressure for the deal. despite all the hate directed it from us and nothing else is pastoring, but i have serious doubts whether he will be able to follow through and instruct the army to resume the war. speaking of the day is really public. how much pressure do you think those, that those families of the as really captives will be able to,

to put on? that's when you well, i think they can apply a lot of pressure and they already are, but it's important to know that that pressure still remains as sort of a human interest story. because far as the collect is early psyche goes, a lot of energy was directed towards a saying that the images we saw of the 3 may, you may see a to the captives returning from gaza were reminiscent of the holocaust. and now this isn't a central thread, no one is ro, effectively country amended the call to release the hostages. now this based on parents really crying with the distress regarding their children or their relatives or their loved ones. so it's a very moving story. i think a lot of is, or at least feel a connection to the families of the hostages, but the whole movement, if you'll permit me still lacks the unifying thread. that is political in earnest. nothing. yeah. is a politician. he has no politicians against him,

which is why don't i think she is trying to play both hands against the middle and, and she has some kind of workable compromise. i very much doubt he will resume to work, but of course i may be wrong. okay, thank you. ok, goldberg? thank you for joining us from tel aviv this hour. we'll cross over piece of gauze, i'll speak to our corresponding topic about as soon joining us from there. so the statement was put out by the assign brigades project. just talk us through the statement and give us any details that you're hearing at this hour. well, yes, they're reading the books 1st and of the military wing of how much of a bite that has stated that the leadership was supposed to be a resistance. has been closely monitoring all the latest developments regarding this east of quiet deal implementation. and the scale of commitment made by a israel regarding the deal. and they have seen that israel completely did not

commit to the terms of the agreement. as they have recorded, the number of violations were present sits in the delay over the re tubs of the displaced families to the north of the strip, the deliberate shooting and bump bump made during the spot time against palestinian residents, who tried to return back to the houses and the systematic obstruction made regarding the insufficient amounts of 8 trucks that have been to the gaza strip since these, these spy. it took effect on the ground. and based on these developments, they have decided to delay the hand of the is really captive all scheduled to be released next saturday. another currency spot agreement. and this has been completely put to the funds and noticed until they can see the practical implementation of the a toilet agreement by israel as a part of the a greed oh, as

a part of the deal that has been recently broker. so this is what the, as folks buy some of the military wing of homeless as a states that and this has to get a significant consensus among palestinians regarding victor ribbon that you of the ceasefire to read civilians believe that the numbers of h ropes and the patient's will have been evacuated from cause a wellness done. what has been widely promised bites you spell and regional mediate says and this comes under sometimes security. busy is security free text as a sort of progressive procedures made, but as long as there is going to be some significant disagreements regarding these points civilians believe that the deal could collapse. and we need to remodel view is that under the current sci fi agreements, a fraction of the human at terry nate supplies have inside the gaza strip with united nations humanitarian office reports that over 12600 humanitarian 8 trucks into 'cause. i just used to say to that the conditions and goes all still very

terrible and people that are still hungry, the humanitarian chief of the united nations have stated also that if the ceasefire affords the more quickly the funding like conditions will come back again, which can really trigger fusion skepticism about the next phase of the ceasefire and the possibility of the resumption of which means that the devastation but in the site, the x will be committed box to billions. believe that within the coming days and hours, the original mediation as well, try to do show assets of order to bridge. the gap between both paused and to be sure that these 2, spite deals will smoothly continue. and if not, people here believe that the crisis will for an escalating. so again, with more high staggering scales which could really but lead the get your ration in the humanitarian and maybe called crisis. and expose noting that what has been

delivered to the gaza strip in terms of the humanitarian. they can not really touch the surface of the humanitarian needs. as people believe that it's completely dropping the oceans of palestinian needs that have been widely resulted from the east. very military, devastating effect till the ongoing military operations in gauze over the course of the past 15 months. okay. taught a couple of us over 40 for us from guys, from kind of help us out in a particular topic. thank you so much for the time being assembled some foods. joining us not from online because the is really government and the power of sending a 40 head band delta 0 from reporting inside israel and from inside the occupied westbank. and there has been some reaction now coming through and i'm particularly thinking of the is really defense minister. how does that tell us what you're hearing about this significant development? the best right that he knows we've been reporting and the last hour this is not

going to be received well within these really political and security landscape. and that's exactly what we've heard from the countries defense minister, israel caps, who said, but he's now instructed. these really are me to be on the highest level of alert, meaning, preparing for any possible scenario, including a return to full scale war. he's accusing him us of completely and outright violating the ceasefire agreement, but it's worth mentioning that throughout the last several weeks, there been a lot of accusations pointing the finger from both sides about different things is that each side is accusing the other a violating throughout the deal throughout the 1st several weeks. you had israel, who's that have mass, wasn't meeting their end of the deal with the release of the captive, that they wanted assurances that their hostages wouldn't be released in large crowds mediators gave them those assurances. i must have accused israel of not giving enough humanitarian aid as part of the agreement, which we do know on the ground is true. only 2 percent of tens and other sort of

temporary structures have been allowed in. we've heard this not just from palestinians, not just from leadership, but also from humanitarian organizations on the ground floor saying that's the level is catastrophic for those who have nowhere to live. returning to live on the rubble of their homes. but it's also worth mentioning that israel says that it is upholding incentive to deal the same way how mass says that it's upholding. it's end of the deal as well. but you also have this school of thought within israel's far right government, but they want to return to full scale fighting to an all out war, which is what some members of the far right say. and this and young promised them, even though they voted no to this deal, they say that nothing y'all offer them assurances that it wouldn't last after phase one, even though there's been in his really delegation indo had to negotiate phase 2, even though and it's in young signed onto this deal, knowing that it was in 3 par is ultimately leading to an end to the war and to the reconstruction of gaza. so there's a lot of moving parts here,

but to be greater is really public and to bring them back. now movement supports this deal is behind this deal and says, these really government should give anything in return in order to bring back the remaining captives randazzo. okay, i'm that. thank you so much on this one from the reporting from my mon, my, the one beside us. i was a 0 senior political analyst joining us from del, how so model one, how mass accuse is israel a violating the cease fire agreement? and b is really defense minister has just come out and he's blank time us for violating the ceasefire agreement as a result of this announcement that they'll be delaying the release of the next batch of captives. where do things stand? do you think i hate to say it's about it's almost expected before the last uh, exchange of the 1st phase of a ceasefire. this is especially note the. busy these writers have been telling us

publicly, but they don't like phase 2, but they're going to try to escape stage 2. but then they all have just delivered a speech to these early part of a, after his visit to washington telling gal position how correct he has been. how unconditionally american, a new president supports the strategy position and why there's nothing. and if it's about to move them to 2nd to face to i'm probably, there are other ways of doing it are. and as these rays are echoing the new position from the white house, i bought definitely good friends and guys. and they can give you a far more unreasonable. i think the is rainy since nothing else to put in washington. been making it more difficult for the pedestal audience just at home or to rebuild the their lives. that's how long their houses and residential business or support the tense. i'm not going to again,

the forward is not coming in. they might just send it as far as not coming in as much as it's supposed to after the cease fire begun and hence clearly there is a bad intention on the. busy so these rate is to try to, uh, uh, you know, the, on the mind uh, the cx 5 because they don't want to start discussing phase 2 and the end of the war . so are you saying then that the is really is nothing yahoo himself is attempting to supper the next phase of this agreement on if so, what do you think is going to happen next? what will they negotiate or is be doing at this moment in time? because presumably this is a ring development for them. i think somebody enters the mediator. that's right. oh, yeah, definitely. the mediators are gonna have the right to step in and probably 6 the day before. so have to be in order for the last august of the 1st phase uh to go

through as promised. right. but that doesn't mean that after bad things are gonna. ready smoothly, so it is possible that, that the mediators will still save the day, comes after that. but after that all bets are off. and i'm just to, you know, to make my own set a bit more, i might, and that is a bit more. i don't know that's called in balance. i would say that also have mass being and the on and getting some momentum support from the readiness of course that sort of sticks in that position. because if you, uh, if you remember just a couple of days ago, uh, i was listening to how my spokes person on our channel and setup a complaining about drugs violation. i was actually running my eyes saying, here we go, you know how much stop stop, stop. so they're not gonna do anything about it. but what to do is wait to hear. they all do something about their saying, look, if you do need to violate the agreement,

we're just not gonna lose any more captives. that's a new development on the part of how much because it does feel empowered it because it has been a visitor directly. because like these ratings like another now like how, yeah, both sides have been declaring victory. and so the life of me, i can't imagine any sight winning actually winning winning as guys getting distorted as guy as far as getting under mine. but be that as it may clearly have miles, has decided that it's not going to take a plane down anymore and it's going to start making. it's also which on ultimate them such as if you don't deliver. busy on the agreement, good, just not bad. not to use any popped up. there's and you know that it's all rolled out and see what happens. i'm on one this of course. i mean, if we look at sort of the bigger picture here, somewhat this coming in shortly after the latest statements that were made by the us president donald trump, who himself raised concerns about the durability and the sustainability of the

ceasefire agreements. absolutely, options are very low. there's something about on the edge. so the 2 of the terms propose that there's something about the election now that each about the said this and by the end of the gallery. right. and it's stuck in the left. but it is just by the same degree, dangerous, it's dangerous. why? because it's not coming from your next door neighbor is coming from the president of the world super bowl. and he's quite adamant and he's been vomiting bound again and again. and again, it's becoming almost embarrassing. it's not to say that it's going to happen and he's going to get the $2000000.00. but a sydney is asking a good class or displaced by force or by other means out of that is that it is exactly the other way of looking at it. it's because he had nothing you know, clearly made. did you know i'll clear to determine to make does i'm livable and

he's this goes into the heart of his violation of the agreement. there's thought in the process of making it impossible for those kind of thing is determined to go back to even the distorted neighborhood, then distorted clinics on hospitals and destroying schools and stuff in the houses . and so, so for what the government just didn't make it life possible, nothing, you know, a company i'm going to try to make sure that it is short, miserable, but there is no learning and water. not only there is more, i think electricity, there's no running water, there's no running sures, there's no running anything. and it's making it impossible for people to live and it's making it possible for people wanting to leave. okay. model on the shadow, alta 0, senior political analysts. thank you so much for speaking to us from delta will not speak to mr for about who to who is the secretary general of the palestinian national initiative. joining us from drama let mr. but hopefully welcome to alj

a 0. are you surprised by this statement that was put out why they are assembling gates in? no way. i'm not surprised, but of course we are worried about what might happen. but i hope there's an eye on president tom. the president of the united states and responsible for this development is there anybody relate to the agreement in 3 ways? first of all, they did not fully fill out to us, indicated in the green meant in terms of providing humanitarian assistance to odessa. specifically providing defense that is for people the tense and fabricated homes that the $60000.00 to which should have started to come together. none of that happened. and more than that, a lot of the humanitarian, it was all protected by israel. so that's part of the agreement which is very essential, is obstructed. second is there and continue to hold that people in gaza. they have i related the ceasefire agreement so but other times on truck.
