a spokesperson for the group has now denied any involvement. we get more from our reporter danish java dot, welcome danish festival. talk us through what happened. and so fil a few fade bomba blew himself in a moss that was backed with more than $300.00 worshippers eye witness. a fear that he said bombard wasn't the 1st roar, went up a prayer, so this was going on. and the impact of the blast was so high that the roof collapsed. a lot of people were gushed under the debris. we know yesterday the dead told was 59. ah, but a lot of injured couldn't survive. and a lot of people crushed under the debris, couldn't survive, and that door has now crossed more than 80. there were frantic themes at the hospital. our people rushed to the hospitals to find information about their loved ones that were called for blood donation. i'm so there is a lot of a sadness,

a shock, but also anger because this mosque was in a very secured protected environment or protected a part of the, of the city of fish other for there is definitely a lot of sadness, but also a lot of anger and the seems to be confusion about who actually carried out. visitor initially at the attack was claimed by a faction of bacchus, any valuable or d t p r. but the mean group d, t b has a distance itself from the attack, but d t p has been attacking back if any states specially security officials in the border region of pakistan and afghanistan. i think last 2 years and their attacks on security officials has significantly increased beliefs that affects sure that more than 100 police officials were killed just last year instead of related incidence. but they're also other groups such as the so called islam extend an affiliate of the islamic state. claim responsibility offer attack in

a mosque in the theme city of fish our last year in which more than 60 people were killed. so there are many don't like different drops operating in the region, but ttp is one of the most like the strongest enemy that barcus and state is fair thing when it comes to desert of them, right? a white house, the government been unable to crush this insurgency. ah, that have been military at that they have been military operations to trust insurgency, especially after 2014. when a school was attacked by d. d. p in which more than 120 children were killed. and after that there was kind of a consensus in the government that they have to go and attack these militants. and briefly, from 2015 to 2020. there was a decrease in debt related incidents and pakistan, but since of gone taliban took over in afghanistan. number of attacks have

increased inbox done on. and the current government also blamed the former government of emron, hung back as only form of a minister immigrant. hon. initiated these talks with barca, funny balaban and afghan taliban were facilitating these dogs. and now the critic feared that these dogs, emboldened to pakistani dial upon because during his dogs at the comp and fish and the former prime minister asked many of the fighters of bikers on it, either bound to come to pakistan and beat it. and they were there with the plan duty had they had them as long as they lay down at arms. but it didn't happen that it was a choice sign between the 2 parties, august only that lip on also brooked act agreement and govern government also glimpse the $9.00 bond in afghanistan for facilitating arcus on a dollar bond for providing them safe heaven. so it's a complicated situation. thank you for talking to syria. did we report abuse job and thank you. the secretary of

state antony blinkin is in the middle east. he'll speak with palestinian and present mahmoud abbas that later today on monday saw him make river israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu in jerusalem. this was their 1st meeting since the formation of the country's far right, governing coalition. this month, the long planned visit to follow the recent spike in violence between his riders and palestinians. the u. s. official say is concerning. antony blanket visit was planned for a long time, but its timing amid violence that has rattled israelis and palestinians has given it a sense of urgency. moments after landing blink and urged for com. it's the responsibility of everyone to take steps to content rather than claim them to work or to day when people no longer feel afraid in their communities, in their homes and their places of worship. that is the only way the halt,

the rising tide of eyeless that is taken too many lives. too many israelis, to many palestinians almost every day in the week leading up to the trip had brought fresh violence. hours before lincoln landed, people in the west bank mourned a young man who was shot by israeli soldiers in the early morning. oh. and in jerusalem, crowds paid respects to victims of a mass shooting outside a synagogue. 7 people, including a child, were killed by a palestinian gunman. i his really prime minister benjamin netanyahu didn't mentioned the violence after his meeting with blinking. focusing instead on threats from hiram's marta to normalize relations with several arab countries working blank and applauded those efforts. but said the u. s. wanted to see more progress on the easing of the

decades long conflict between israelis, cable and palestinians. that's crucial. moving toward our enduring goal of palestinians and israelis enjoying equal measures of freedom, security, opportunity, justice and dignity. present bind remains fully committed that goal. we continue to believe that the best way to achieve it is through preserving and then realizing the vision of 2 states. a poll from december shows support for the 2 state solution in both israel and the palestinian territories is lower than it has been in decades for blinking. and u. s. president joe biden. the trip may reveal a lot about their influence, or lack thereof, with netanyahu's new right when government and with palestinian president mahmoud abbas, whom lincoln is set to meet with next. will i asked. i correspondent rebecca, written in jerusalem was expected from today's meeting with the palestinian president, mood abbas. well, you heard

a little bit there in the report at very much so as it was with benjamin at yahoo. when the 2 met yesterday, antony blinking will be urging the palestinians were urging mackwood, abbas for calm, trying to de escalate the situation of recent days. the spiraling out of control of violence in both the west bank and here in israel. a. this was a long planned trip, but given the violence of recent days and a severing of a security coordination between israel and the palestinians, that is likely to be high on the agenda as well as the bank and is going to urge math with a bus to reinstate that security coordination and no doubt due to discuss it and give way to the fact that it's important for both sides. but as i mentioned, it has been a long plan visit and the original gender agenda will, of course, still be on the table that will be the strengthening of ties between the

palestinians and the u. s. that were severed under the trump administration, as well as looking at the economy and talking about economic support, bolstering the palestinian economy. you tell us more about the relationship between the palestinians and washington, which is always traditionally had this firm commitment to israel. where's that left for the past 10 years? well, i don't think it will be any surprise to palestinians that you know, the trip here. this time was for the u. s. government to, to see, to find out a little bit more about just bought this new israeli government are going to be doing at what their plans are moving forward. i think it's, they've had a long israel and the us have had a long standing relationship. of course that goes back decades. the palestinians are well aware of that. although you, the u. s. has traditionally also very much supported and the palestinian side as

well. the person you authority will be placed by some of the things that came out yesterday that lincoln said after the meeting with benjamin netanyahu. namely, the fact that the status quo of the holy site, the alex, a mosque and known as temple mount to the jews. that status quo must be maintained and also that the u. s. re affirming its commitment to pe, saying that the abraham record that the normalization of israel's relationship with its neighbors is, is not enough is not alone enough. that piece with the palestinians. and a 2 state solution must also still remain on the table. for rebecca d w, correspond rebecca ritters in jerusalem let's go through a quick look at some more stores making headlines around the world. and i will start in peru where lawmakers are considering bringing forward the election to try to end weeks a violent protest if approved polls plan for 2026 could be held this year.

faster and they're much more precise. so it will not have been a bother with english newsome. jessica rama the technology is good, but it does break down when it comes to germany. that was great. i liked it. that was they trained as well. i'm very happy that i was there and i got some experience that's helped us a lot. he had was youth judging. um, either one of the soldiers have to bring the gun into an open field to use it. they're targeting russian tank units along with their artillery only about 8 kilometers from here. the soldiers warn us that it's about to get extremely loud. in the knee pro, we meet the spokesman for ukraine's military commands in the east. sadie shepherd of archie with china than us viola. we think it would be ideal if we had aircraft to our military. helicopters are more like, you know,

we're very grateful for everything we receive and we use what we get quicker for. we are more, it's an investment, not only in our national security, but also in the whole of europe, was where, where sadly, losing very many human lives with messiah but a child is a jar. the same day we see 1st hand just how dramatic the situation and the don it's grecian has become. russian rockets struck the city of constantine nava in the middle of a residential area, killing 3 people. the destruction continues. on the edge of the forest, the soldiers moved the how it's a back into its hiding spot. one of their biggest concerns is that it will be discovered by the russian military. we can't stay long, but before we go, we're allowed to a quick glimpse inside the how it's a genius says it's particularly dangerous here. um we're supposed to love because we're very close to back. moot where defending buck moot. it's the focal point

right now. basically as we leave the site, we can already hear the russian artillery in the distance again. their assault on the city continues straight to the craning capital than where we find a correspondent, misuse of bullying at welcome mathias. let's start with an update on the fighting in easton ukraine. the. it's pretty much what we've seen throughout the past few weeks. attacks repeated attacks by russian small units onto ukranian positions are on this town of buff more. um these attacks were repelled yesterday. there was a bit of confusion about one village that the russians claim to have taken, and they also posted photos standing at the entrance at the sign of this village and then the ukrainians are claiming that they have repelled them from there. so it's going back and forth and very small steps, but was

a very high casualties. and the group, the fighting remains very fierce in that area. these attacks continue, and it's clearly the russian aim to take that town of buttonwood, that they have been attacking for several months now. and they're throwing a lot of manpower and also fire power at this home. meanwhile, a ukraine's calling on its allies to speed up arms deliveries or what of asking for well, and 1st of all, they're asking for more of the same or for these tanks that have just been committed that the west has committed to, to be delivered as swiftly as possible because they would be needed in an offensive operation that ukraine might likely undertake in a few months in the beginning of spring. there is some kind of a right race to whose 1st because russia seems to be preparing also an offensive

operation. and of course, the one who is 1st sets the tone and it will be much more you cram, wouldn't need much more a resources to fight back a possible russian attack and will have less resources for its own counter attack. so it's about speed, it's about quantity of what has already been committed. ukraine, also one fighter jets, the most likely model would be vs 16, which exists in quite big numbers in a number of countries. um that ukraine says they would be needed in case of a bigger offensive in order to, for example, a bomba positions behind the lines, et cetera. this is the biggest discussion for, of course, at the moment with western countries, especially in the u. s. still being hesitant about these hydrogen. i thank you for
