those still being held by him us and that the release of american hostages is his top priority. so this tells us that there are indeed more hostages, more us talk to just being held by him as a group designated as a tear group by the us. and the you and notably can you think is real. but he also sent a cutoff for its efforts in a, in the release of these hostages. this is not the 1st time that we're seeing cuts her take this role of a mediator between the united states and adversary just in september. because there was also the mediator in a now very controversial prisoner exchange agreement between the united states a and e, ron. and so, as of this story continues to develop, i mean there are over 200 hostages being held and we've heard from the us government and these really government of course,

that they will try everything to get them released. we can expect the contact to continue playing an important role in mediating these offers. that was dw special correspondent at abraham and un secretary general. antonio gutierrez has visited the roof of border crossing between egypt and gaza. he's calling for it to be opened to a live 8 to reach palestinians is real, has confirmed it will allow a limited number of shots carrying humanitarian aids to enter gaza, which is facing acute shortages, few food and medicines. last thoughts of the gaza strip has been reduced to rubble by israel's retaliatory. air strikes. the need for humanitarian aid is becoming desperate. the strikes have taken a heavy toll on families like use of his sister was skilled in the bomb being. he and 2 other family members suffered serious injuries. you know,

i don't even saw the on the issue that why did this really is randomly bump my house is what i use the vacancy. we have civilians, and it is clear that there is no one here but us. my father is with us and us disability, so that's a little bit and what his eyes on was. let me know if that doesn't cost liaison just over the border in egypt, trucks filled with 8 or waiting to cross into garza, the head of the united nation says the board and must be opened as a matter of urgency. behind these walls, we have 2000000 people, the that the sufferings in our mosley that says, no water, no food, no magazine, no flow is or it has persisted in bumping the directory, including this neighborhood in garza city. many hoping to escape before an

anticipated ground offensive, including use of the father and his family could not secure safe passage near how why, so we went to the crossing but they told us it would open but it didn't think, i don't know. we tried to find shelter in the south and cousins, so we decided to return home when the mag, unfortunately, a house was found while we were inside because of plus, but these are already 4. 18 is expected to arrive soon. many fear it will be too lucky and too late. the conflict has prompted pro palestinian protest across the world. here in berlin and they've been banned. i met for years for public safety, but some riley's in support. health palestinians have gone ahead with put police arresting hundreds of people. that's raise questions about free speech and the right to demonstrate the d seems like this have played out your tongue. bell lane

spanish speaking, that's a jewish school in the capital, the head of a center, right, cd. your party said he box, the bond is good to go. so that will have to be a band on activities against certain people on this. we have not turn this off, and of course it will also have to be a band on demonstrations machine. so if what happens is what we have seen often enough or too often in the last 10 days, numerous namely that that has been violent demonstrations here to that an echo of the political mainstream for gemini, the focus know very much on 0 tolerance of anti semitism let's take a look at some other stories making headlines. next month's mtv. your music awards in paris has been cancelled organizers site to the volatility of world events and meant the ongoing conflict in israel and gaza. a spokesman said it does not feel

they're worried about his involvement in trump's attempts to overturn his election 2020 election defeat in congress. so he's failed. so now they are looking for someone else. okay, so what's the plan for what, how are they gonna figure all of the site? well, the going back to the drawing board, they're looking for new candidates at the moment. there's a deadline on sunday for when people can put the names forward as already half a dozen different republicans who signal very interested probably in the most prominent is a house majority whip tom m a. he's the 3rd most senior publican, but there's no clear front runner, there's no one candidate who can get the. it seems clear it could get these unimportant, $217.00 votes. some more motor republicans have such the idea of giving more power to the interim speak of patrick henry at the moment old mchenry can do is call votes to get a permanence because they saying maybe if we gave him the power to bring for legislation, while we look, someone will permanent that what kind of break up the grid block, but others are opposed. mckinney himself said he wouldn't be agreed to this kind of

plan if there was a vote in the house rep sanders on it. so there's no clear path forward for now. okay, so talk me through the worst case scenario. how well it's actually at stake here if they can't elect the speaker. well, it's the worst case scenario is quite bad. it's essentially, everything is at stake for the time being, if nothing changes the house of representatives comp low to anything that comp pos, any laws. that means congress comp policy laws. that means in this instance, like bivens request of age, israel, that means no new age of israel. that means no new a few cranes. it baffles the recommendation as well. so kind of ticking time bomb element here where government funding is going to run out within a month. and that means that if they haven't both on you speak by then and they've done policy and you spending bill by then tell the government shut down with hundreds of thousands of government employees will go without pay with the us. his credit rating can be put at risk. so what's at stake? almost everything is this daycare. this is an urgent situation that needs to be

fixed up to 5 days later. we. well let's hope that they manage to find a solution within the next few days or weeks. thank you so much, dw. refer to our ben dorman for some sports news night. and the inaugural season of the new african football league has kicked off. intends in. yeah, with fee for the president, johnny and fund to, you know, joining $60000.00 funds for the 1st game. the 18 know kind of competition is set to run for 17 days with millions and prize money up for grabs the confederation of african football and visa. or hoping the new league will boost the quality of africa's pub football and bring it to a wider audience. and the opening game home sites, in the se, drew to all, with the continents, most successful team egypt, out ali. you're watching the, the news live from bartlett. and here's a quick reminder of our top story. come off says it has released to american hostages for what it calls humanitarian reasons they've been named as judith and
