threats. we are with children, the old people and women. i beg you not to bomb us. and she and her family are among the 1800000 people who work internally displaced at 80 percent of the population. places to seek shelter, ever shrinking. those who are able to escape bombings with their lives are barely living at all. food, water and other basics are scarce. seen as i'm a quick game here. what am i in? as you see, there is no shelters, i have no dent. i'm not seeing anyone, water, tyler, nor toilet margaret long look at our children, how they look. there is no place to shop for them. but that today there were fights with people because of the smaller places. you know, we cannot set up dense northern we cover our children.
12:08 pm
this is the milwaukee camp in southern gaza. this really military has designated it as a safe so, but there is no aid. it's undeveloped land we're already desperate people are living in squalid conditions and strikes and ross, i near the rejection border have soon fear in those who have fled their homes to seek safety in the cities camp despite international calls for a ceasefire, heavy urban combat intensive, i don't even same be the best has been fighting along the entire trip rather than 2nd stages of calling. lots of them in 19 terrorists including senior combines, is hiding an underground tunnels. i mean, not working, and also destroying terrorist infrastructure, the steel table, the un has warrant that casa, is teetering on a humanitarian catastrophe, with hospitals and able to care for the injured and the growing threat of disease.
12:09 pm
sweeping through refugee camp. and i never spoke to steve and ryan from the international committee for the red cross in southern gaza in aust about the situation for civilians as heavy fighting continues. ok, well thank you for having me on this morning. firstly, and as our listeners will have just seen and heard the situation in gaza is in describes of, of the condition for civilians are facing a loss of life, the continued soften. and they, they extreme challenges that organization touches the international community at the right cost, the i c, or if you're facing and bringing aging together and being able to distribute it safely. under the current conditions, we've reached the limits of humanitarian action, an environment like this. right now people are without many people are without food, water, and you've seen people are without shelter people or would i, i would as kind of taishan facilities. and these conditions are obviously key in
12:10 pm
new maine. but along with additionally coming in was some aid is trickling in as a need for more. but there's also the need to be able to distribute, to take me and to make sure that we're able to do this in an organized way. and these kinds of conditions, while people are moving, leading phasing from wherever they can go to wherever they can at least imagine that they might be safe. this makes humanitarian operations extremely difficult. certainly we have a great challenges and they getting the relief in regards to security conditions on the ground are not conducive to being able to provide humanitarian assistance. and this is utterly unacceptable. stephen ran there from the international committee of the red cross. he has a quick look now at some of the above news headlines about $0.25 with the soldiers are withdrawn from goma in the democratic republic of congo. they are the latest group from an east african community regional force to pull out from the strife though, on eastern region of taking shots,
12:11 pm
i refused to renew its mandate. the withdrawal comes as far as and continues between revenue groups and the company's ami or enter government for testers took to the streets of pebbles, capital lima, to mark the 1st and government of president dina baldwin to she took office following the impeachment of federal castillo, who attempted to dissolve congress, endured by decree, fed who has had 6 presidents in 5 years and a trained drive was in germany on a 24 stripe onto friday evening. the full effect bessengers across the country. the driver's union is in an ongoing dispute, but the employers are working on as they are in the union says that this wouldn't be the last strike of the yeah. but they plan to up the onto with more action in the new yeah. as well. leaders discuss climate action at the us department conference in the united alabama. that's one time comes up a lot, one and a half degrees. in 2015,
12:12 pm
hundreds of countries agreed to ramp up efforts to limit the global warming to hit the target time to take stock and look at the board is forecast to happen if the limit is exceeded. wildfires and canada floods in libya, sweltering heat in brazil and extreme drought and the horn of africa. this is a world 1.2 degrees hotter than the early 19 hundreds. a world that is edging closer to the temperature limit leaders agreed would avoid the worst impacts of climate change. 1.5 degree celsius compared to pre industrial levels. that's like a 1st line of defense where we want to tell the humans the need to change our behavior in order to save the planet in order to keep the planet for future generation. as we keep, the app disappeared by burning fossil fuels. scientists say it will lead to even more extreme, whether or drought and the disappearance of more animal and plant species. people
12:13 pm
already at risk will suffer 1st and more like this family in southern iraq and intense drought force to, to leave behind the countryside and settled for poverty in the city. during the night, when there was water, we used to grow everything on our land, including vegetables, as we lived on that agriculture. but when the water started to dwindle, it would be available for 2 months for a month until it's stopped to complete. so in more, by the end of the parts of the middle east, africa, or asia, it may be some of the hardest hit right now. but the risk for extreme weather is increasing everywhere. different parts of the world are going to be affected in different way. but what we also know that those big stream events, the pads are both extremely advanced, is also going to shift. and in the places where currently you may feel, well, we're not going to experience as much. i'm sure that's not true. or to keep the
12:14 pm
planet habitable plants and animals the to work with their environment. but key eco systems like these are already starting to break down. i sheets are melting permafrost of storing. and cro reese are dying off. going above 1.5 degrees doesn't mean complete disaster, but any fraction of a degree makes a big difference in people's lives and the environment. according to climate scientists, we need to stop burning fossil fuels, the pump greenhouse gases into the atmosphere by 2050 to keep to the 1.5 degree target. very, very close to $1.00, but at the same time, uh, it shouldn't be a signal to give up a call and do nothing. on the contrary, the need to do more in order to prevent even bigger increases in temperature. the closer we stick to the target, the more we can hope to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. meanwhile, negotiators at the top 28th climate conference in the by i scrambling to find
12:15 pm
a walkable onset to the question of how to say goodbye to fossil fuels. scientists say it is critical of climate warming for the gas and coal. a phased out soon to prevent is reversible. ecological damage. $200.00 nations will go to step up. does a go find to do the events taking place in one of the most oil rich regions in the world? on any, a correspondence named shaun bag joins me from the call 28th in the by team. the big topic this here is the global stock take. what is it exactly? yeah, the stock take is kind of an inventory. it's kind of a guideline which is given to the countries coming up in the next year. so it's looking back what has been achieved in the past is or not as we just heard in the, in the report and what is necessary in the us to come. so it's not a new pledge, it's kind of a guidebook that's countries can use or should use in the us to come when they need
12:16 pm
to define the new climate target. and this will be from next year. these new climate targets will define these countries and climate policies, mitigation targets until 2035. and this is critical. we're early. we're already talking about 2035. but this is a critical moment to give them the guidelines and to, to give them include our direction where it should go into importantly here as it's not about emissions only, it's about the entire topic of climate change. it's about a patient, it's about where the finest needs to go, how the people can prepare, countries can prepare it, cetera, et cetera. so it's not limited to the discussion of fossil fuels. here. we also are here uh, toms like phase down and phase out when it comes to fossil fuels. what's the difference and why is it important? yeah, exactly. as you're saying of phasing out and all phasing down the fossil fuels is
12:17 pm
the hot topic. you pop from the, from the stock take and phasing out of fossil fuels, essentially as we just had a that's what scientists say to limits a global warming. what's the difference between a phase down in the phase out? the mind obviously, to phase out you need to face down, but what this conference is trying to do is giving long term targets and long term commitments to more than $190.00 countries. so we know that we need to phase out at some points. why should we then agree on a face down only? that's what scientists and active a say. also the phase down from formulation. and the final declaration would be much more vague because every country would have to define, okay, what is phasing out was of what is facing down, excuse me, and to what extent to be face down. so there's a bit much more wishy washy if it's clear from the science to prevent extreme weather events, to preventive, devastating impacts on humanity, on nature and all economies. then we should face out among the thousands of
12:18 pm
delegates of this conference. them that i'm more than 2000 fossil fuel representatives, what are they doing there now where they are trying to push the narrative of their business model and try to be part of a climate debate. active is very critical against is obviously what we can say. many of these lobbyists are in delegations that advising, for example, the italian government. that's what we, what we know, at least that's what the angles are saying. and then what we know is what we see. that especially the common catching narrative is pushed by gulf states and the lobby, which is trying to sell that it's possible to keep doing keep burning fossil fuels without a face out in a more environmentally friendly manner. but this is not the case with this technology, and that's what we see. this narrative is trying to be pushed. alright,
12:19 pm
we leave it there for the time being drawn back and divide. thanks so much. i to involve tensions ratcheting up in the strait of taiwan. so for the taiwan says, a suspected military surveillance balloon across the highly sensitive media in line, dividing it from mainland china tie when he's been entry, official said the balloon passed southwest of the 4th city of ki noon. before disappearing. there had also been a large k movement of matriarch often ships that pays on jaila for chinese efforts to interfere and it's presidential election shall do. and for the 13th of january, next year. and recent is china has the ramp, top military and political pressure on taiwan, which it claims as its territory from all its spring into the eastern shore correspondent james j to james. what more do we know about this balloon detected over the taiwan strait as well as far as we know so far there. so
12:20 pm
a fair number of questions about the, the specimen, the specifics of this pollutant when when is this information was 1st distribution by the defense ministry? um it was, it was described as a surveillance balloon. later in the day here in taipei, we heard from the defense minister who then kind of seemed to imply that there was a bit of a correction there. a bit of a clarification into that this was in fact a weather balloon. as for the details, you mentioned some of them the this was a blue and the response of crossing the median line of this high one straighten this is a body of water. this separates taiwan from china and has previously solved as an unofficial buffer between the minute trees of taiwan and china. it was flying as an altitude of 21000 feet. and the defense ministry says, an arrow to it was the tech said it quote disappeared somewhere. we not quite sure exactly what that's really all the detail that we have so far. reports have been pressing as high ones defense ministry throughout the day on this. i've been in touch with the defense industry myself to offer some clarification on the details of this. and they say that no brings the issue any more information about this. we
12:21 pm
also have other kind of clarification about where this disability might have disappeared, but there was no further information about this sort of business, of course, bringing back memories of um the electronic bible and it was shut down of the united states. so it is here that timeline is also set to hold the general election in january. james, is this incident on the ministry jets crossing the media in line connected to the upcoming fold to well, i think it's fair to say this is all positive important strategy that china has been applying to taiwan for, for years. now this, this type of activity of mid attractive, etc, also include grades and more of that is something that is high one experiences on a daily basis as it relates to this building. this is a fairly rare, rare experience to give you a sense of how this kind of information is usually distributed in taiwan. is defense ministry, daily issues, information to journalist, about the number of chinese jets fighter jets that have been cut into time. ones that defend site, the identifications on this is the one of the 1st times that we seen something
12:22 pm
about the building. but as he mentioned, the key context here is that where it with fast approaching a presidential election in taiwan just a few weeks away now. and that is concerned, the time was from minutes to even mentioned this today in a briefing with reports is that china will be trying to interfere without election and push flights as likely away from the routing policy that is under contract progressive policy, which is seeking, it's that time a policy which china views a separate test and refuses to communicate with. we'll leave it there for the time being does come up for joining us a, you know, because one game should have supporting some type thing. thanks so much. chad in germany, the chancellor's job approval rating is at a record know, according to a new survey, the monthly germany trend old found less than 20 percent of people either satisfied or very satisfied with the job or life sholtes. he's doing other policy leaders fed a better digging into the details around how said he was acting food in p one,
