either way, there's cause for concern the slots in the curve investigate on l g 0 the serious presidency announces a deal to merge the us back syrian democratic forces within state institutions. the color of the bulk of this lobster life also coming in the state just said in saudi arabia, for crunch torques and ended the war between ukraine and russia. a collective punishment to the u. n. warranty, as well as the terms of located on the food horse at 8 ad. now electricity is rationing,

palestinian lives in garza that fee is of an environmental disaster. after a ton code used by the u. s. navy out of container ship collide off the coast of england, spearing jet fuel into the north sea, the facts of joining a serious government to strike a deal to merge the kurdish lead soon. democratic forces into state institutions. the deal comes off the weeks of the go sions, between damascus and s, the fleet is implemented, they would mock a significant shift in the countries power dynamics following use of civil war. the us bank s t f, controls the northern part of syria, including key oil producing regions. well, how does your categories in washington d. c, i prefer to speak to wrestle, says a who's in the syrian capital, damascus, or russell? what do we understand to be the backbone of this possible agreement and how, of course of both sides being able to foster this new found trust as

well as the busy is perhaps the biggest development seems to fall off, especially unless ad on december 8th may before the 1st time in the last 14 years, the hopes are so high, the syria could be a really, i need to rate the stage with curves with different activities, with different sacks here. and finally, quote, achieve the territorial integrity. this was quite unexpected. and so we know that now for them, some sources that actually do united states was encouraging the s yes. in the last 2 weeks to science such a deal. so it just breaks down. it's seen that well, the division of o sybil and ministry institution in northeastern syria into the administration of city and state, including more of the costing

a port and oil and gas pills. so that means that the s. yeah. see that? well, it is given up on some of information, the alternatives on the 8 boards. well, some of the facilities, buildings, prisons, oil and gas seals. so here's our city of law, just oil and gas fuel. just just remember where the app is in control. starting from the northeast of the company, the truck is border all the way down to the solid data zoar rocky border. so conversely, how stick it back up data. so all these major cities are under is difficult, right? it is wrong turn of city and territories. now this do you have seen that is ready to hand over the administrative duties to the need government here? i mean, be now the, the, the, the, the, the security forces here and the minister of defense has confirmed 12. does either that's according way of the city and the minister of defense is we have had to have

2nd in coordination with us. yes, i did. is this um, uh, delegation convolt is going to take uh, the control of the premiums from the web. the s yes is in control. so this is quite true just now happening. and the other you, the major thing is the cold noise in the kurdish comenity as an integral part of the city and state with the city and state guarantee and the rights of citizenship and on constitutional rights. this is major for menu of companies. this could be simply the basic provide the one would have by birth, but the, and still, yeah. remember to all the 61 years, a virus of the gene and 54 years of a soft. some of these rules codes did not have the full citizenship. they were given the permanent residency in discovery entities. that was one of the reason that the 1st hand, when the out of a part of the spring started in syria codes are bound against the gas,

damascus. now, the new ministration, seeing the crew is all going to have the full citizenship prices for citizenship and also all the constitutional right. so here it's not could be however, what this is going to be an autonomy, a somebody autonomy or a special special status. however, you understand that now they're going to have a constitutional status. it's not clear whether this going to be a model that is resembling off the the, the, the dakota state is in the north of new york or not have it. but this is still a major, major challenge and also no s. yep. he's got an team that is going to join to fight against the members of the older team with, with the cdn and stations here. and now the saying that the comedy comedy is formed and that comedy is going to implement the agreement may no later than the end of the current year. so it means that within 9 months, these agreement is going to be implemented gradually. this is quite significant,

maybe a new chapter for syria. a new chapter indeed rustled many sikes that vessels set them in damascus. the. let's go to heidi to a customer now who's in washington, d. c. for us and heidi and the agreement potential, at least it still needs to be able to find it, not without consequences for the united states who have been barking, the s t f in that fight against also for many years. and that's right. and we're still waiting for an official response from the us government, but all signs are pointing that this will be a very welcome development here in washington. because as you said, the us has been the s d f is a c, a c has major back or a since the groups formation. and even now the us send. com commander michael corella was in the region meeting with sd of leaders and touting a series of progress that they, they are making as the to continue to fight against iso, announcing the capture of an eyesore cell leader. recently,

the us of the number of us troops in syria after the fall of a saw that when from 900 troops to now to 1000 who are still currently in the country. and the question really has been, how much longer the us will maintain its troops given that now president trump has said he is considering withdrawing and that that could be a timeline of some time between 30 to 90 days. what does this most recent development with the s do you have now agreed to join the syrian government? need to all of that? those are the questions that the us will be asking, as well as, as a us is really focused on the continued fight against. i sold and it certainly will be wondering whether the staff will continue to partner with the us. not wanting to give ground to a research in device. so in the region caught a jay castro, the in washington d. c. bodies. thanks for that. well, let's take

a look at the areas the curtis lab series and democratic forces o s t f actually control that stronghold in east and syria includes large oil fields and us spaces. the s t f, dismantled ice was final stronghold and rock a city in eastern syria in 2017 that with us packing us troops hoping and station to the region ever since to help prevent the resurgence of iso. but to key a can see this, the steps co distractions to be terrorist groups. these are alleged ties with the co design work as a pot to, to buy them. colorado is a political and listing, joins us from. and chris talked about this a bit more detail. welcome to algebra. so how might space merger curtis side forces the control? as i said, lots ways of ne serial work within the context of this new fledgling syrian leadership. thanks for amelia. show this very good question. and one of the advantage of this deal is that it gets the pressure off of the sds,

and it's the so called economist ministration, order of ne, serious that it's been running with us backing as you and the previous commentators mentioned. uh, but it's also removes the some pressure off of, uh on cuz back for years and the s d f was with some, some good cause was perceived as the continuation of the treasure arms. the militant group, p k, k, a large part because the leader of the, the mazda of combining muslims of the was something of an honorary charlotte, an honorary son of the founder of the p. k. of the large, on whom, as you mention, as you alluded to a call before laying down a arms of the p k. k. be called on his organization to lay down and its arms against the truck is stage with no conditions with out any conditions. and there's been some debate since then. it's been almost 2 weeks, is allow me to just cut off

a weather. uh, not only the p k k, but what they, what us terms perceived as a peak, a syrian branch. the staff should also be laying down its arms against the turkish state. this agreement with the central government and damascus between us to confront the central government in damascus. ledford by a president, i had a shot of a really gets the pressure off. now, the 2 sides of the many sides actually can sit down and actually work on some of the finer details of what the new syria will look like. how to kit will be approaching northern northeastern syria. okay, let me, let me, let me jump in because you've, you've been to the oil. sol, solved concessions that are being made by curtis groups both and took a and syria in recent months. you mentioned the little or chill on the in prison leader of the coast. i'm working spotty, calling on forces to lay down their arms. now you called the s t f in syria saying

that the work together with the emerging syrian leadership. we must be talking about huge concessions compensation, economic military territorial when it comes to goods across the reason for doing something, not initially actually your partner, i believe in damascus. mentioned this uh they, they alluded to, he alluded to the kennesaw regional governments overall where i lived for almost 8 years and a previous life. and one of the arrangements that in 2005, with the church and the new administration and but the other, the new constitution, what's the city up of the countries? oil and gas resources among the different provinces, but specifically between the federal government and bugs. and the kurdish region at a similar arrangement, the i believe has been in the works between the interim government and syria under present a shout of and v s p f and the syrian church. and i believe that quite

a few of those issues at least have been resolved, or at least they have agreed on a framework in which they can actually work out these differences. of course, that needs to have political framework 1000 uh as well, if any of this is going to be working successfully within the context of a fully functioning democracy. if that is indeed the direction that syria is going . some have talked about the political model of, of level, possibly being something that we may, we may well see a much inferior as well. would you make it that ah, yes, there's been some talk. although i don't think, either serious, i should say quite a few lebanese would agree with the logic behind it because i mentioned, there are one of the part, one of the governors problems that both iraq and logan on have been facing in the last decades is, is the notion of crucial ca shows, which is that certain of the religious groups are located the certain government

seats, in the case of love it on, you know, the presidents to be america. christian department is supposed to be a sunday. most of the apartment speakers she uh, mobile, so on and so forth. thank you. have similar arrangements in iraq? i don't know if they really would like maybe in a, in a brief transitional, 510 year period. yes. but in the long term, i'm not sure of serious a what would be for that sort of a system. because a lot of these folks themselves often complain about reserved seats and, and not really having a full, equal before the law of citizenship type of political legal arrangements in their countries. but you know, certain things can definitely be worked out. and obviously as a reporter in damascus, mentioned there's a sense about that for years on. so really the civil war, the aside, the regime had the 9th church, nevermind passports, and what, but even the recognition, right, of issuing id cards to them. so even overcoming those sorts of

obstacles would go a huge way then, you know which ministers going to be from, which echo sector a group i believe having proper citizenship is it, is the more important, the harder step. honestly, it is a hugely important moment and the next step of this emerging serial power and call you lou, pleasure to have your knowledge there. thank you. thanks for having on the ice like folks own and people when you create a set to begin to saudi arabia, ukrainian president for them is a lensky as arrived in jetta and is expected to meet with the crown prince mohammed bin simon. in the next few hours, yes, actually was state marco rubio has also arrived the red sea port city. he set the whole talks with ukrainian delegation on choose day, although that won't include zelinski becomes 10 days off,

the zalinski and president trump part of the all jude in the oval office over how to end the war. child strive for report, some key from one ukraine hopes to achieve from tuesday's tooks a grant. and then us officials scheduled for tolts and the saudi capital re, uh, told. so that being described by many is absolutely critical. and potentially the beginnings of a long and difficult road towards peace. a lot of analysts will say that zalinski and his team will those and excuse not participating in these discussions will be came to show that ukraine is serious about taking on board discussion, sewage and eventually piece framework ukrainians. also keen to get to a listing of these a suspension temporary suspension of us, a, an access to us intelligence sharing which is also being suspended in the last few days. and there was

a general feeling that it is important for the ukrainians to put the bull in, rushes cooled by offering potentially a partial see spot receive spar that would stop the attack. so strikes deep into each other's respective territory. although fighting on the ground along the front line would continue already, russia has said that it would reject any such proposal. but as i say, money analysts say it's important for russia to be pressured by the ukrainians to relieve ukraine from the kind of pressure that it is suffered over the last few weeks by the us. then of course, there is this minerals deal to us minerals deal. zalinski ukrainian lead is reiterated that he is prepared to sign that steel, but really stepped back from asking for more security guarantees from the us. security guarantees that already trump, the us president. a said full squarely on the shoulders of your test drive it out

to 0. keep still a head allows you to say, well, that's right. my work is in germany's major airports leaves thousands of passenger strand, the to data. welcome to tons of the national lobby. often pushes out the permits reputable for system thoughts for kept the everyone. let's start with an update on tropical storm, jude it is now cutting in so that eastern size of zimbabwe so expects and big pulses of rain in the forecast here on tuesday. also what picture for north west africa, the rain keeps coming out, you in response. so we go in here for a closer look. keep in mind the dark or the color, the more intense that rain is falling. so over 48 hours we bought could scoop up to

about a months worth of rain. this is a cool rain as well. just 15 degrees on tuesday when you should be 20 for this time of year, across the street of europe or alter their pain, still swirling around portugal and spain coming up into the south of france and monaco. so the weather continues on tuesday. rain has hopped over the adria attic into croatia, bosnia and montenegro, places like the prostate could scoop up to a 100 millimeters of rain in a short period of time. now east of this, it's fine. it's looking good in greece and turkey a assemble 18 degrees and ok are coming in at 22 on tuesday. well, in this weather report in the northwest square, less your shower swirling around the u. k. friends, belgium and the netherlands. so let's go 14 degrees in paris on tuesday. that's it . that's all of the connecting community. what would you like to see happen for a new syria to emerge?

there's no way we could nip into country again where i see it is for this basement is part of our presence opening up the conversation representation methods. we haven't had the best representation of african. so for us, it's about solving that putting to representation for our kids with fresh perspectives from lesser heard voices. the stream explores the key issues of our time on algebra. the, [000:00:00;00] the new without. is there a mindful top stores this out? serious government has struck

a deal to verse the condition of city and democratic forces into state institutions . video comes after weeks of negotiations between damascus and s. t. f. leaders. the group controls the knolls and passive syria, including cheat oil producing regions. you're a section of site marco rubio has arrived in saudi arabia for talks with ukrainian officials. the president brought him, is a lensky officer labs and shut up for a separate meeting with crime principle. haven't been selling the off the 17 months of israel's genocide policies and guys had already started to return to the shaft of homes and more all that they've lost. but it's real suspension of the ceasefire with a mouse and a touch of brocade on garza is now fueling more hungry in desperation. for 9 days, no, a trucks are being allowed and to in by is routing to cars and trucks. the contain

food, fuel live saving, aid and shelter. do you an agency for policy? new refugee says israel's decision to block aid is progressing palestinian lives as it has been almost 10 days since the state of his way to bind the entry of him into an aid unconscious applied into the depths of treat somehow situation similar to the one which prevailed in october 2023. these decision for it tends to life and survive. and obviously they didn't. garza will have had only a brief respite from 16 months of bits and war. it is critical that the surrounding 2 guys have been to maintain the progress made during the 1st phase of the ceasefire and meet the people's basic neat. lizard was also cut off electricity. the power is one of causes main, de salivation, planned supplying fresh drinking water around how for 1000000 people in central and southern gaza. the masters quote, to move cheap,

unacceptable blackmail as the head of sea. so i took some dough to move, is also drawn international condemnation. with both u. k and germany aging is around to restore pilot immediately. i'm just it was my honey, my mood report. some guys to see the only impact these are the blockade is having for the 9th day in a row, a to trucks have not been allowed into the gaza strip. the other side of the border of the law had been of karma, was silent. crossing many of the critical supplies and aided trucks are stuck because these really military decided not to allow any of the trucks. for the past . nineties, imposing more restrictions, making it difficult for people to sustain their life and to survive. the difficult conditions are created by months and months of devastation and destruction. the blockade on 8 and the restrictions on the crossings have really pushed the population already on a brink of capacity. we really desperate for many of the much needed supplies and aids for them to survive these difficult conditions of use fluids,

medicine and if fuel and other critical supplies are running out of the market here, it's just as simple walk into the market. you would realize how depleted it is as of now with many of the basic supplies are not available or whatever is left is either an affordable because it's too expensive for people or available at a small amount that is not enough to meet and satisfy the greater demands of created by months of devastation. this is already been going on. hand the use of food and other aid as a weapon of work. according to many organizations that describe what's going on as a collective punishment of an entire population, accusing israel of using starvation as a weapon of war against an entire population in the gaza strip. ideally, these a trucks parked here on our rashid's roads in western ga, the city. the coastal road of garza city would be filled with much needed a critical supplies in humanitarian aid, water, fluid,

fuel and other basic necessity. but not anymore, because they are not allowed to get to the crossings and to bring much needed a honeymoon. how does your data from gaza city, how this time a high level is or the delegations expects it and cuts off capital. doha, for tools to be the a to so in extending the federal ceasefire and garza, the 1st phase off, the truce ended 10 days ago. and it'd be no agreement on how to implement the 2nd phase, which involves a complete end to the whole. and the withdrawal of israeli troops from the strip as well as cold for extending the 1st rays, the sea spa. while i'm asked once immediate negotiations on the next phase, same as for avi. has this update from the stephen whether uh, arrivals into parts is, are happening of the different various groups. even that is something that is difficult to nail down because things are so chaotic and moving. so of ad hoc it has to be said. but one thing that is clear is a task for steve woodcock. trump's special envoy to the middle east is definitely

a difficult one, and that task is to make sure that this is far holes. now what we're hoping for what is expected is that these thoughts will lead to an extension of the ceasefire . now it has to be said that the seas far ended over a week ago, and there is no roadmap for how things move forward. and the risk is the longer that carries on the greater the chances of developing back into a war devolving back into the terrible conditions that the people in gauze are still trying to get over. so what is expected is that they will be in this really delegation, steve would call fluoride. the talks will be held and the sticking points are very clear. how mos wants to pursue terms that allows for a permanent end to the fighting. and a complete withdrawal of israel from all of causes territory in exchange for all remaining living captives being held by him are being held in gaza with israel wants, is to get all the captives back, gets back the remains of anyone that was killed, that are,

are still in the hands of homeless that are still in gaza without committing to an open ended ceasefire without committing to an all out and of the conflict. now the one thing that is clear is that the trump white house definitely wants to see this cease fire carry on. trump has said before that he does not like for he definitely wants to be seen as the president. that helps to negotiate the deals. that seems to cease fire in place and the hope is that over the course of the holy month of ramadan, over the course of the jewish holiday of passover for the next 60 days that that cease fire can be negotiated and that it will hold. but it will not be an easy task on the collision between a cargo ship and a chemical tank as triggered a major rescue operation and fees of an environmental disaster. it happened in the north sea of england's north east coast. the city of how is the largest the my

population center you are shipping from. crowley says it's 10 coast spilling jet fuel and all of his crew abandoned ship off to multiple explosions. so i think people would want to show one crew member still missing from the container ship hundreds of thousands of at passengers in germany, a grounded because of a one day strike of 13 major effort. the 24 hour strike was cooled over a dispute about pay and conditions for apple employees. thousands of inbound and outbound flights of being disrupted, or cancelled leaving travelers that you can imagine in limbo. it would only kane report, some buildings made apple in apple. it's across germany. it's a similar scene full on passengers arriving. looking at the katya adults or arrival bolts and seeing flights councils here in berlin. avery flight cancel. this is an airport that's on every day of january of this year. more than 50000 passengers

were coming through this terminal on the of the terminal here at this airport complex today. no. why? because the union that provides ground services here is on strike. it says that the management here must pay 8 percent more to every member of the union in order to prevent the threat of the strike action. the management has not made an offer to the union's and so the question for management right now is when they see things like this and to check in areas, how much do they want to see this continuing, that is the central question from management, from the point of view of passages where we know hundreds of thousands of passengers having their flights disrupted or canceled completely on this, having repercussions knock on effect in other countries to given the pre eminence that the gym and market tends to have. so a day of dislocation for passengers

a day for the unions to strike on a day from management to ru, perhaps the decision not so far to make an offer that would prevent future strikes, told me that came out to 0. i billings of really put on apple and other these major fuel shortage just sitting is yeah, people in the capital in the i'm a is struggling to find open petrol stations. the shepherd uses all but only refines a small amount, leaving domestic consumers vulnerable to fuel shortages and price hikes. this to them, so i mean, is expanding is control over parts of the capital cost to you. recently we come to the cities east now district of all the stronghold of the rifle power, ministry, rapids support forces, many who lived on the r s f rule. so they hope the armies return will bring an end to 2 years of death and destruction. it will work and report some call to this is what the eastern parts of men she a bridge looks like after the battle between the southern,

these army and the power military rapids. the board forces. one of the major bridges in this is denise capital for 2. it was on the rest of the control, giving them access to east smiles. one of the capitals largest sub, but it was recently recaptured by this to denise army. east lie. i was one of the cartoons most heavily populated areas. many of its residents flag when it came to our self control. this once bustling market now has little to offer to those who remain this. i wonder if the official with, when the army came here, i celebrated their arrival. it was like being in the dark and coming to light. the r a stuff used to climb walls and enter homes. they stole tea, flower sugar and even salt. they left us with nothing. this was once the areas main hospital. it was destroyed in the early days of the fighting, which began in april 2023. it's left to people struggling to get access to medical care with only one smaller hospital left to serve the whole of east miles. her name
