the, the 5th or the, the news life from berlin, 2 months after the mazda tags, on the 7th of october, is there any soldiers broken from us, militants, and southern because of main city, hon eunice? they say they are hunting the gaza ahead of that. you saw mister organization, who is believe to be hiding there. being rhyme is red marks the painful milestone at home. mazda thoughts, left, 1200 people killed and 240 of hostages. abducted many are full of statements. pink,

17 plus the european union and china get back down to business. b. u leaders hold their 1st thoughts with china's changing faith in yes, for the hold side saying they're hoping to find common ground on a number of issues. the management of you're welcome, the fighting has intensified in and around the southern guns as main city of con eunice. as the is rarely military pursuits. it's goal of eliminated. come us a militant organization designated a 10 risk group by multiple countries. isabel released footage of its troops operating in various parts of the city, which they believed to be a strong hold of islamist militant group. as is rarely expand, it's offensive into the south of goes up on the stadiums are being forced to flee the fighting. and on going from bob meant thousands,

i heading daily to shelters in the south, where they still know get them to of safety. a no senior international correspondent, funny if i try to is monitoring developments from jerusalem funding. the fighting in hon. eunice is being described as the most intense of the water sofa. why it's intense for several reasons. first and foremost, this is who the main strong cool that's just pointed out is police to be from us many things, but not only then also several other implements militant groups. so it's really is really for us as a pushing in the past to the city. the 2nd biggest city of the gaza strip because in the boston or system that stretches across the entire gauze, the strip. they are believing that there's thousands of fighters, but also that they are the remaining hostages. believe to be more than a $130.00 people that are cap, says israel says and it twice to goes,

released the hostages. they say, but also make sure that the yeah, the entire minutes and full stay off the homeless group is eliminated. they have that zooming, zooming in on one particular, officially here the main commas leader who's presumably the main architect or the main mos the mind of the october 7th attack. and he says yes, yes. involved. now, is there a place that his house has been surrounded? it is unclear how this would be sustained by is, or his family or drew about. so as is of a say should is ongoing though the recession that the people that the civilians are exposed to is also growing big a, not just intensity. the do go to the fights. and finally, today's also uh, 2 months since the, i'm us attack against the israel. how would you describe the mood in the country to the mode is different from what it would be normally because in fact today, uh how do you guys going to solve which is of a jewish

a festival of lights. this is when people are actually gathering at home, exchanging presence in various traditions of being a celebrated to you. but then what if anything, then a celebration. in fact, it is tension looking i had because in fact a few rallies are being analysed for today at one main demonstration. in fact, a pro government demonstration is supposed to take place in the behind those walls behind me, which is the old city of jerusalem. and the people that will participate allows me those there, echoing the voices of the rights and government. and that is to continue with the rules and know ceasefire is being a cold and supported by these protests. but then again, the also voices to you on the ground to say they must be an end to the cycle of violence. they must be an end to suffering on both sides. so likely then there's going to be also a, uh, a pro government process. but at this point, it's really just unclear how that's going to play out what we are seeing. in fact

that there's more security here in jerusalem and then already and everybody's just bracing off for poor to us. and we have to see how that's going to play out tonight really with their, for the time being funny for try introducing them. thanks so much i and as we just mentioned, it's been 2 months. thousands from us launched it's terrorist attack on israel is rarely grieving the loss of 1200 people, mostly civilians who are killed by him, most militants, but with more than a 100 hostages, still being held by a mouse. the ordeal is far from over. back shoes and stories. many of the people who own these belongings working and there would be more nickel, strong music, down into nightmare. come on spite this storm the festival. just let me do the we from the goes the border. and gun don't. as many people as the good,

the organizers of the festival have recreated the brand new incentives for them. each item displayed here is a reminder of fit that it is strict ality. that is the vision and then memory for all our friends, we lost all the people from the community that have died and on the 7 am. and our purpose for this exhibition is it's not only for our country to say it's for the whole world to see is and it's right. a strong sense of photo is supposed to been everywhere. more than $130.00 cost to to austin and garza. and his riley's want all of them back feeling you must be released. the number one car should be one more

moment. i'm feeling frightened. skids aggravated angry, angry with my government useless government. and i'm hoping that this situation will be results quickly and peacefully as much as possible as the fighting continues is dry and has also been doing tools in this family this morning. and also for the young soldier, didn't gauze on my legs. i hope that my friend saw jupiter. i know i love to have a low price of soldiers. the soldier for the son of someone,

the friend of some, the human beings in this war is the price of this boy. it's really, really high, quite a one to many from using his right has been is gaza at overprint by grief, and with no signs the fees, the ward, if like you to bring more something suitable. sorry. oh lou. these rarely ami says its goal is the destruction of homos, but most specifically tempting the leaders of the militant organization. hun eunice is the home of how mazda is god's. our chief. yeah, yes, involved. and although he is not being seen publicly since the beginning of the war is right and believes he's hiding somewhere in the city, they thought sort of seeing, wow, so same wise in the area, hon units. you have tara infrastructure and come on centers that in, well, seen, was not above ground, he's on the ground. no,

i don't want to elaborate where and how and what we know in terms of intelligence, this is not the place to talk about such things. and the media, all job is to find send while and kill him. you have seen a lot of video over to are looked at more on this. i'm joined by hunter yuk option law senior director of the counter extremism project. and to should left is around, wants to find and q. yeah, yes. involved. can it of course this is an extraordinary difficult endeavor because because that is this still functioning underground system in particular, in the southern part of cause i thought seemed really is the key need to to get yeah, he was from the very beginning part of setting up the power structure of from us from 199898 on rich. he was also the found out the guy i'm us, intelligence organization, but homes, what they call collaborators. those who i corporate with this route and executes

them. so it's really an important target to take us involved is also that the mazda mind of the october 7, 10, attacked in israel. and can you tell us a bit more about what we do know about him as well? he was born in for numerous in 1962, he joined us from the very beginning. as i said, he was the one who set up the terrace infrastructure. he's a hob lineup, if you can say that within a terraced organization who always argued for taking hostages to exchange for ballasting prisoners, he's the one who really strongly argued when he came up to the leadership in 2017, for a stronger relationship with iran and to really build, how must, his ability not only to conduct smaller scale tara talk to me as well, but what you have seen, you know, to by 7. so he really is the brains behind, over all of this. and in his 22 years that he's spending his rated prisons before

he was exchanged in 2011 as part of the deluxe charlotte deal. he also seemed to have learned people. and he, according to many of the hostages that actually talked to him in that particular type, david t as the saloon keeper, is what it wants to find and kill this man. you called at the extraordinary, difficult, uh, uh, operation. we're talking about a hon unit, which is a strong hold of a mazda. shortly her mazda is ready and waiting for is rarely troops, and these rarely operations. how likely is if i ask you again, that is rarely even be able to catch him as well. it's not a 100 percent guarantee because there is, of course, also channels that stretch into the sinai, which means day is a possibility for individuals to leave class assignment does up. however, if israel is going to do in the south, what based on the north, i. e, great, a cordon off military control around the borders of cause up and then escaping

through those tunnels is going to be very difficult for mr. thing. while he will definitely try his, i survival is key for how much so they will do whatever they can to prevent these raise from killing or capturing. sorry, for the survival is key for how much is right or where to find and kill seen. what would that spell the end from us in gaza? it wouldn't spend in of end of 5 months, but to replace indeed that has been, you know, key to the tires operations from the onset of the establishment of the group is going to be very difficult and is going to take a long time to get someone again, with this kind of experience on how to do tires, in fact, not only in the organization but also back into cause. so taking him out is really a valuable target, you know, but uh, this uh, this argument about the place and experience lead to this has been made in the past decade. there was since the late eighty's when i'm us was set up yet. i'm us

continues and now it is a defect or in government, in the gaza strip, showing me how mazda is other leaders that are waiting. absolutely. so here is the, the key difference. so how much as an ongoing concern, and how much as a major factor is. so what the military operations can definitely take, and cheese is to set back. i must have ability get from the causes of strep to threaten israel in any way, shape or form on the size that it did in october 7th. however, eradicating how much as an ongoing terrace group and consent will take it much longer. because of course, as i'll try it out as these, let me state have done once they were military defeated in i've promised on any rock and syria, as they simply devolved into a network organization with smaller scale terror attacks. i'm. this is of course, then a very long time in denver and river quite a more than just me to operate and international cooperation. but also social

economic development in the policy and intelligence. do you want to hazard a guess as to how long it will take? and the reason i asked this is because the hand of israel's domestic care intelligence agency wants to eliminate from us entirely including in the region. what is the time frame we are looking at? is that even possible? well, i mean, there is a military timeline and then there's a political timeline for as well right now. and that seems very clear that israel has a couple of weeks maybe a month or 2 left for his military operations. and guys of the for international pressure comes, becomes too heavy for it to continue any major military operations. that doesn't mean that everything is going to stop. it's not on the scale at the scene right now . so this is the timeline that this ran has to destroy as much as possible. the tunnel system, find the weapons, thumbs destroyed the rock and launching facilities. right. and then stops to view the long term work on eradicating how much as i do already. and for that is where i

cannot do this alone. it needs international cooperation to really leave it there for the time being. thanks so much for joining us today. how do you, i've of similar, seen a director over the counter extremism project. thank you. so thank you one and he has a quick look now at some of the stories from around the world of what his investigation into the depth of one of his john list in lebanon on the 13th of october has concluded. but he was keen to bind is of a lead time shuttle. 6 of the reporters were worn during the incident, a kilometer from the is rarely border. reuters assessed multiple video sources and other evidence from the scene. the se shows the african american, comprising a 115 islands in the indian ocean, has declared the state of emergency after the last as an explosives depo the explosion on my island home to the capital. victoria damage the surrounding industrial area. people were told to stay at home, and schools were closed. and in the united states,

3 people had been killed and another is in critical condition off of the shooting on the university campus in las vegas. police said the suspect professor turned down for a job at the school was also found dead at the site. so your opinion union and china holding their 1st face to face summer since the cove at 19 pandemic. e, you leaders also from the line and shot of michelle unengaging adults with chinese president sheets and being the relationship has grown increasingly rocky and recent chairs with the geo political attentions heightened by differences over human rights toward in ukraine and the use bid to diversify its trade off the ships underline less on china. both sides say they are hoping to find common ground of the to detox wherever they can. despite that many differences, for the last time they held a summit, pandemic prevented

a real meeting of different interests, prevented real results. as i said, there was not the exec to that dialogue, maybe a dialogue with the deaf since then, the european union has been racing to reduce dependence on china, seeking your resources for the rarest metals needed to power clean technology, investigating chinese electric vehicle subsidies to try and keep your of competitive and mulling export controls on critical technologies as plans all summed up in brussel new favorites password plans through de risk did escape the risk in e, risking. and yet your china trade reached record levels last year. we say diversification, but to the question is where the you already had a big red us a strategy, but to in the end the they depend the 10 years later they depend the more on china a sweat us impulse. in 2020 the 2 sites and i assume investment agreement which

brussels hoped would help even though to trade in balances bought. it's frozen after european disquiet about the chinese treatments of michelin since enjoying led to an exchange of sanctions and hold to the deals during the dialogue with asian denies wrongdoing. but campaigners in europe and says, the book should to do more when you're having assignments with the government responsible, responsible for crimes against the money to you want to address them. you want to announce that business as usual. it's not a possibility. you want to announce that you are committed to accountability. then there's the biggest political bone of contention, rushes more in ukraine. china says it wants peace, but does basically stop by. it's close all i most go. 12 you once hoped beijing would pressure russia to end its invasion? no, i think you has very uh, soberly, uh, acknowledge that the perspective of china being an constructive mediator is not really on the cards. are objective as the european side should be about trying to

limit the extent to which china is going to support washer in its invasion. the says 8 does want to work more with china on climate change and global public health issues. china's messaging is much more upbeat to shuffle, but china and the easier partners not rivals and our common interest far exceed differences. china hopes that the summit will play an important role in building on past achievements, kind of that. and we also thought we so many differences, it looks like the only real deliverable of this dialogue is the fact that it's happening a toll. all right, let's get more from goddess bonded father and credit by who is covering the story for us and aging and dw brussels correspondent, jack patrick, welcome to you both the gentleman a fabi on to you fast e, which is or set off on the line. and you order for and console the president shall . michelle have met the chinese president regent being what has been discussed. yeah, we know that pretty much in detail because the european side was quite transparent

when it came to the agenda, what they wanted to talk about. and they had basically 2 big topics. one was they wanted to fix the trait bed and switch from the european side is very uh, imbalance. why? because uh, they suffer from a big deficit a towards china. i mean, china is selling much more to europe than vice versa. which of course then has to do with market access. and the 2nd a big topic is political. the european side wants to pressure china more to use its influence over russia regarding the war and ukraine. and the chinese size has quite a different agenda in their remarks. they did not mention any of the problems. they were rather upbeat um the rhetoric into welcoming was very warm and they focused on the aspects of mutual cooperation. for example, seating things suggested to collaborate further on industrial supply chains and etc . and just very soon there will be

a press conference by the european side behind me in the european embassy. and then we would get to know more junk in brussels. we saw in the pulled up in display of the e. you wants to overall the risk with china. it's most important crate, bop. now, how does it do that? so yeah, is the big buzz where this de risk things and what exactly does that mean? well, what the european union is trying to do, essentially, is to find all the sources for the critical rule materials that it needs in its green transition. so using renewable energy use and then the digital transition and things like semi conduct says precious metals which go into batteries and electronics. a lot of those things come from china right now. so while it wants to reduce its dependency on china, if it wants to proceed with this on the plans, it needs to find other places. but the reality is that it's struggling to strike trade deals with all the upon those. for instance, a trade deal, negotiation with australia just fell apart. so in the meantime,

it needs to continue the trading relationship with china, but it wants it to be less risky, less dependent on the international. it's political changes and shifts what we've seen in the last few days, even if it's in the for instance, a prominent e u. member states, a big economy in new york in union has withdrawn from china as belt and road initiative. this is the, the plan that china is being running for the best for, for over a decade. where it basically invests and infrastructure products in order to encourage its expos into all the parts of the world. and many european countries have been signed up to this. but they're worried about it because it means that that reliance on china initially has baffled, pulled i to about now we do expect all the you countries might start thinking about the following, not the right. as we say, the european union, the european commission president said 2300000000, your raise of trade a day is the done between the you and china. so the relationship is still very

important for me on the you a wants to a de risk from china. what does china want from the u, sketch? china once it's prevent executive that. yeah, the, the biggest agenda for china is that they want to keep the close of a trait relationship with the europe. i mean, china is economies, investment driven has a high x puts up lessons. and um, so basically the european consumer right now is keeping the ends in going here from a chinese perspective and they want to keep it. and that's why they all post ado risking um, what, what's it up on the line has said, what, at the same time, an extra pointed out the european union criticized, puts a china for being the 1st one, who's the risk and it's uh, economy, but yet it china is really very concerned of losing europe towards the us. i mean they don't want to uh, trans atlantic um collaboration because the us side is perceived as trying to

contain china. and badging is really quite a freight that a brussel might a photo of washington and also join of washington's policy. where you live at the time being far beyond the crouch, my in badgering and the the brussels correspondent jack product. thank you both gentlemen for bringing us those details and there is a quick look at some more. i was news headlines. us republican senators have blocked a bill aimed at providing billions of dollars of industry a to ukraine and israel. they want to pay me a to ukraine, to be tied to a stronger integration control across the us border with mexico. president joe biden has signaled he's prepared to make compromises to get the aide approved. a russian president of letting mapleton concluded his visit to solve the day of the following. a meeting with the crown prince mohammed being sol, mom, they discussed cooperation in the old pack, plus group of boy producing countries. the strip to reality was put in 1st face to
