5:03 pm
a 10 killed and a large number of injured it seems including some seriously injured. do we have any details on how many people were injured while there are no injury numbers? yes, but what i can tell you also is that is, this is highly unusual for the check republic. we're not used to seeing images like this. there are happy no us style school shootings here that i'm aware of over the decades. and this was the work, it seems of a lone gunman, and there are some reports about him. he seems to be so being a student, perhaps at the faculty, best about entirely clear in his twenties. and they were also reports that he may have told his own father earlier today, but i have not seen that confirmed. i've only seen that on social media to well just to remind all zeros that this thing lies. pictures from prague or heavy police presence over the you and can you confirm if this incident is still ongoing?
5:04 pm
so the incident is over, say the police said that they were not looking for anybody else in connection with the shooting that they were. they were certain that the, the silence who they shot dead was the only dumb, but there are a lot of, as you can see from those images, there are lots of rescue services there. the minister of health side recently are in the last few minutes, i meant to say that the hospitals and pride were ready to take in the injured. also, they've been sending some kind of trauma experts to speak to survivors of this troubleshooting, which as i say for and check the public is very shocking and unusual events have oldest off and students that were at the university, have they organ evacuated from the university. all this to people that are inside the building. i couldn't couldn't throw that there. oh, evacuated, but they definitely were told to stay in their office is to barricade themselves
5:05 pm
and their offices. also people in the area were told not to leave there. their building's, this was done for, i guess about 45 minutes before the news came. the the prize place had managed to shoot up the sailors who appeared on the roof of the faculty. there were some photos of him. shortly after this all began on the roof, evidently turning a gun. and uh, but that has all been uh the, the incident is over now, but of course many people will be receiving treatment. and as i say, they are also sending some from it experts to help the survivors of visit the dentist and it will it be in product. thanks very much for that update a move. and of course, the update of us as a member, you have more information on this incident. these shooting in central prod about moving on. now, president joe biden has signaled the us may sign up to
5:06 pm
a new united nations resolution aimed at holding the fighting in gaza. but you want to go to council, just trying to secure us back in for the initiative. put forward by out of states. a vote has been repeatedly, de doesn't go see if those haggling over the wedding. the latest draft goals for suspension of facilities between isabella and her mas, which many countries classify as a terrace group and around fonts. and you can and germany have joined the goals for cease fire. bees around has vowed to press on with his operation and gaza onto him how mazda is eliminated. these rarely ministry has released pictures, which it says show a network of homos tunnels, these red flames. the network is used by the groups. c'mon does including those accused of planning. the october 7 to $10.00 our techs is really soldiers inspect buildings. said to be in gaza city. they say they've uncovered entrances to what they allege or secret rooms use by him. us commanders at several
5:07 pm
locations. a complex with books of the koran. you can see there is this area i see graffiti and there are carpets on the floor, but maybe some kind of front area. round metal type. the military says its soldiers also discovered shafts to a quote, vast network of tunnels. there isn't electricity books here. this opens, it was close. this is actually a door, not the back of a box to reach the space that leads to the tunnel shop below. perhaps the most important discovery of this they believe was used by the hamas leader and gaza himself. yes, yes. and who are pictured here in an old video? what was behind a brother?
5:08 pm
he's alleged to be one of the chief planners of the october 7 terror attacks. and cin wise elimination is among israel's top objectives in gaza. while israel's ground troops advance and bombardment continues. israel has now issued new evacuation orders for hon. eunice, in the service where it claims and war is hiding at the plight of palestinians has led to growing international pressure for a pause in the fighting. but israel is standing firm the whole month. we continue the war until the end of it will continue until how much is eliminated on until victory. let me, it's a whole those you think we will start. so a not connected to reality by them to and despite holding talks in egypt, how mosse is also refusing to budge? in a statement, it said it will reject any talks about prisoner and hostage swaps until quote is
5:09 pm
really aggression is ended. might of i'm trying to use a john list, i'm seeing them, at least i'm list with the international crisis group. i asked her for her reaction to that statement by benjamin netanyahu. right, well we've heard from them yahoo and from most of these really leadership that this war will take months and months and months and that it will take a very long time because they are dedicated to what they say is the destruction of come us military objective is something that almost 3 months into this war, it is hard to see. and i just don't, i don't think that israel is able to really build the victory narrative at this point. and it's in yahoo as many on know and understand is interested in political survival. he's already in a re election campaign, as he knows that most israelis are interested in an election or in some kind of removal of him from power once this war for ends. and so the question of is how in when's world was and remains very obscure. the victory remains completely elusive
5:10 pm
and as such, and it to me, i who continues to talk about unless, unless we're model. meanwhile, the us also say is go to very serious negotiation that taking place on a new seas for god's us, he's 5. but the prospect for the day and demand on something where it is right, and as we just saw, and how mazda bought, standing firm and the bonds, what do you think is needed now in your view to break these deadlock as well, we certainly need a ceasefire. but what's on the table currently from israel is some kind of pause. the type of pause that we saw in late november in order to release hostages. there is great public pressure from the families of the hostages in israel to 1st get the hostages out. and then continue on with the war as israel sees fit. you know, so that what's, what's on the table currently, both in the u. n. n. and the is really proposal is something that a mouse has officially rejected him off once a complete stop to the war, something that is rel rejects. but you know, as far as the crisis group is concerned,
5:11 pm
and certainly many humanitarian agencies because of the disaster in gaza. starvation, the disease, the outbreak, and the fact that we don't really see an end to hum us rule there yet. we need a ceasefire. now there's also a regional escalation to worry about. and these are all reasons to stop the war and then enter into some kind of diplomatic and political process, which is really the only way that will bring security to his release. about the un security council, the draft because that as a new from the us, as marketing over the wedding, that as well. what do you think needs to change for the us to beckett's as well? i think the u. s. is already trip, you know, it's already made it clear that it's not interested in a ceasefire or what, what they've been calling a sustainable. i think the station they want to pause. i'm hoping that that's something that the us can agree to. but you know, the us has made, it stands, she very, very clear. and even though it's trying to limit maybe in some ways, the way israel is waging this war, the us is 100 percent behind his rel,
5:12 pm
it is not calling for a cease fire. and so any human resolution that alludes to cease fire is not going to be supported by the us. if it's some kind of pause then, maybe that's something that the us can get behind. we were talking about the name and up now who are the and i'd like to bring him back into the conversation. how much do think there is a sense that uh benjamin netanyahu and his government are getting frustrated and even angry. and the way israel is closest allies and now talking about its actions and goes up well, i mean, i think the israel has been able to act with impunity for it, for decades with regarding its treatment of the palestinians. and so, you know, i, i don't, i think israel is aware that there's a big problem with the number of people it has killed. and the fact that it's really, instead of destroying somebody seems to just be destroying gaza. so, you know, nothing, yahoo is also showing to be a, be confronting biden on his, you know, so called pressure because he things, but we'll get him
5:13 pm
a points with his base here in israel. so, you know, i don't really sense that israel feels pressure from the world. obviously there's major protests in the western capitals, but otherwise is rose continues to operate as it, as it pleases, pretty much where you live with them. thanks so much for joining us today. might i was on trying to now list at the international crisis group in talary. thanks so much. i or she has a question about some of the other headlines making news around the world. russian foreign minister, such a lovely dog, has called the german leaders, a bunch of thieves over to german proposal to confiscate frozen russian assets. prosecutors, one to 720000000 euro has to be seized from the russian financial institution in frankfort. love role long to come to measure as an unexpected, struck by french black, cuz at the auto autonomy operate to get the link has disrupted training. finally, between london and continental europe. the walk out the length of the cancellation
5:14 pm
of the auto stock train service. it's reckoning the holiday plans of many travelers . trade unions of object to the bonus payment of a $1000.00 euros, demanding the amount be tripled. and the world for the program has suspended assistance and thoughts of so done. but human agency says the civil war has been over into the southern region where it has been feeding 800000 people. the conflict has gained 12000 people and displaced 1000000 small. and the protests have had opted in good as honors, often new ogden time president harvey and the name announced a major economic deregulation. thousands mazda gains, drumstick tots, to public spending plans to sell off a state owned companies and the valuation of to pay. so, mean i'd say is that of things needed to get the economy moving again? voting in the democratic republic of congo has been extended into a 2nd day because of the names and the election process. many of the 40000000
5:15 pm
voters found by the papers missing or pointing stations that feigns to open the election is also being overshadowed by the civil war in the east president felix, which is a kid, a is seen as likely to secure the 2nd term. some opposition challenges are already calling for a redrawn and as that unexpected 2nd day of working is on the way and congo, a correspondent, the jonah is getting sent us this update of the elections they were expected to be charging, but the degree of the k u was still stuck some by surprise yesterday voting materials. it is like really late so many people, they were only able to vote in the afternoon in the evening, some of the all the head of the electoral commission. he therefore said that it's okay that people continue to vote until they are so. and so today on thursdays, people that still standing in line and some of those voting stations. even though
5:16 pm
here in the city of contrasts of life, got pretty much back to normal. the reasoning behind all of this into just a was, it's a big thing to push through with the elections instead of risking the anger and pro just off of your position in the case of, along the lady, or that this will work all now. well, this will be going to be see some of the position members do. they have already ask for new elections. they don't accept it. but this is part of the political game that you see. the most decisive question is the time to find the results and whether there will be any irregularities. and this will be the most risky phase of to be selections. you have to come down to kind of spawning jones, getting reporting back from control. so now thailand spa lamont has overwhelmingly passed the 1st reading of full draft builds on same sex marriage. the legislation would mean more equality for thailand, sizable eligibility cube less. community rights activists have said existing laws
5:17 pm
do not reflect changes or from attitudes and discriminate against minority groups. the changes still leave the funding approval of the king. but if the boss to thailand would fall on the ball and taiwan in legalizing same sex marriage to the define cook gaiman's client is getting into the festive spirit. and they may soon have something else to celebrate the same sex marriage rights, et cetera, sexual couples. the majority of ty, parliamentarians approved full draft bills on same sex marriage off to the 1st reading whose number one day, i think we will legally be able to support our partners to them as many of the our lives that will be easier. how did you do that? my name and what am i the we,
5:18 pm
we won't have to hide anything from anyone. i couldn't do it because the lot will be behind us. i thought i name and a lot of what i mean, you don't get put on a bailout st. pete new off. what do we don't want to be privileges to apply to people misunderstand. that's something i think we're calling for special treatment that may be our community just wants to be treated fairly night and they live in every day lives out. now, thailand has one of the most open, invisible, gay communities in asia. but active a say this reputation is misleading because the country is known as an institution, still discriminate against l. g p t q plus people they say this allows the human stadia in all parts of society. previous attempts at posting loza marriage equality were blocked by the full a minute. treat government, but hoops, monks, the gate community will re ignited of the prime minister. se touch was in was elected
5:19 pm
in august this year. on the, his government's proposal. that was man and women and husband and wife would be replaced with agenda neutral terms. individuals and spouse and marriage laws, allowing for full equality for all of the bill still has a few hurdles to pause before it becomes low. but many l g p t q plus activists in thailand feel they're closer than ever before to having that cruise for quality onset and right has just been a long shot on john design and from bank all guy. awesome. whether this position means that this legislation is as good as a law now. well, it's so requires people. how do i was this before becoming blogs? what's happened today is that the bill, the bill was rather the principal. basically the full bill passed the 1st reading and the problem. and what that means is that it's for now after finally committed
5:20 pm
to bring the full bills together and then them to parliament again for the 2nd and started reading before it's a goal. so right, right endorsement before they come to me at least good because today we're seeing maces on all sides of the government and opposition. oh, well, mainly support the bill. and the bill says through the 1st reading, with only the voices of hosting in solomon with 361 and 360 lawmakers voted in stay. but for which i did want to talk to you about these 10 or 11 lawmakers who voted against the bills. and i wanted to know from you why there was a post to it. and what does that say about a position to same sex bills as well? so like, uh, nissan 3 is, uh, one of the key issues when i call the same sex marriage, that is a big because locks a call as
5:21 pm
a religious beliefs. and so in the shape that we have a sister in law makers are essentially it's mostly lawmakers from the southern part of the country. it's not thailand, it's overwhelmingly but is patterns this religious establishment hasn't really weighed in on this particular issue. but for some of the most little community that's i'm concerned, cause about the impact that such a load have on everything, just the name. and that will make us have made it very clear and solomon that they don't understand the way of change or progress. the change in the society, but they want to have a lot of discussion of the committee level to see how simple still a change can be integrated or how that belief, bravo status of the respective why this law is moving to watch his adoption. and i think it's an interesting debate because essentially you have the same and it's not many, i guess it's hard to say in principle,
5:22 pm
but they say that that needs to be afraid of discussion. and the great inclusivity events going forward to cause uh, you know, the details of this whole for most had put in all things like, allowing me to is lot make role is it's finally community format. replace apple elizabeth is appropriate to you in order to understand or want to own in bangkok. thanks so much for that. so major football, new style, do you open union stuff? golf has role that you're a 5 c 5 broke your law and blocking plans for the break of a super leak in 2021 involving 12 rebel clubs. the routing does not mean the super the project we'd be approved, but it does boost hoops. the thoughts or feedback on you, if i had no rights to make any new ink, the club football project, subject to that approval. chris huntington from the dap, as both is with us to help us understand things. chris, welcome. what does this really mean?
5:23 pm
well, it definitely marks a serious legal set back for you way for and fee for because the european union court says that they broke the law in threatening the clubs and the players that were involved in a super league. and that was one of the main reasons that, you know, it got quickly disbanded in 2021 after they announced the formation of it 48 hours later, after fans and teams, you know, expressed their opposition. it disbanded fairly quickly. but this, this particular ruling, it means that football could change in the future in regard to the super league. it could change the way football is run altogether. but it's important to note that the really did not endorse the super league. so the status of the super league whether or not, you know, move forward or not, it's kind of in limbo its, it's in somewhat of a great area right now. so what of the reactions being to this rolling? very interesting manchester united, one of the original 12 of the teams back in 2021. they came out and said they're fully committed to you wafer, which means they're not really driving with the idea of the super league. the
5:24 pm
premier league says that any of the clubs that are part of any future plan will, will be, will suffer a 30 point deduction, 30 points. so you're out of any kind of competition in the premier league. plus you'll be hit with a $25000000.00 pound fine. the german champions by munich said they support you wafer and the doors closed in regard to them for any super lee. but on the other side of that fence bar. so on one of the proponents for the super league, they are thrilled for the idea. they believe it pays the way for the formation of believe a 22, the promotion company behind it supporting the idea says that the monopoly, the way for it. and if it had is over, football is now free. so you know, it's 5050. what will happen moving forward, but it looks graham, you know, in my opinion, considering how many teams say they're not gonna, you know, support it, especially with the premier league putting down the, you know, their 5 and so forth. just to just remind us again,
5:25 pm
press what to solve the arguments that were given to create a super league in the 1st place. well, just to make a add a little bit of competition. you know, to the ingredient, you know, a television money has been considered a key ingredient and reason why the european super late would be formed in the 1st place. the people in support of the super league believe that it would give clubs or you know, their hands on the money to this to separate and basically allocate the funds. and it would have a trickle down effect that would make the game more entertaining to fans. and supporters, you know, abroad and so forth, of these clubs. and also they believe that it could strengthen the domestic leaves . but, but this argument has always been an argument for what the champions league is supposed to serve as well. um, i found it very interesting that a 22 the promotion company behind it and announced that a 64 club tournament there in the plans and making that right. and uh, they'll have be a woman's competition in advance competition. and what are the issues a gives us
5:26 pm
a believe was the idea that it would be a close tournament. it wouldn't be based on merit. well, a 22 this promotional company says that's not the case. it will be based on merit and uh, the figures right now, i'm looking at 400000000 year olds and plus, you know, to divvy up, you know, among the clubs, participating. so there seems to be, you know, quite the, the cared at the end of the stick, but i'm not sure if anyone's by the name of the chris addict. and thanks so much for breaking that down for us. thank you. i or you're watching do the news here as a quick reminder of our top stories of this uh, check. what do you say? 10 people have been killed in the shooting at the university building in the capital. the fraud, dozens of others have been injured. the area has been seen golf and police have also killed the shooter and diplomats of the you and have been working through the night on a resolution holding for a pause in the fighting and gaza. the us has signaled if may be willing to approve a new draft that's it for now,
