slow me, cleaned up debris around their houses after the area was hit by multiple rockets on thursday. since i most is tara town on october 7th, israel and has been out, have been trading fire across live in on southern border. it has glass shows that support for him us. both groups are considered terrorist organizations by multiple countries as well as defense minister saying this is a term for me is role defending against has block you pursuing has belong. i spoke to did have these correspondent rebecca rivers in jerusalem to ask her how serious of a shift in strategy this is. and my suddenly is a shift in strategy. and it could have very serious ramifications. up until now from the 8th of october, when his blood started to sheep rockets into israel and get involved in this conflict. israel has played a more or less passive retaliatory role. they obviously a said a lot of a personnel and hardware to show up that northern border and they have

a retaliating to any cross fire from his block into his ready territory. they have targets, then they retaliate on those targets. we have seen them also target some us operatives inside lebanese territory, even a one e b route. now there it has to be the shift. as you just heard, you have clump, the defense minister saying that they are going to go from this passive role to a more active role on the offensive. and target has been a, a late is a and command is inside the lebanese territory. further up in the north, in to be rude to maybe bomb back and also into syria potentially. now that is a shift and it will see if they start doing that, it will say a response from his lot. and then we could see you probably likely if that is to happen, see an escalation on that northern border. this is the strategy that you'll have gallano discussed with his us counterpart in america when he was in washington last

week. it's something that he has now publicly been up into the north and told his northern commanders that this is a change in strategy. we've been hearing from analyst for some days and weeks now that you know, we should potentially prepare to expect some complication, some, some further conflict in that, in the north, potentially in the summer or as when they, if and when a rafa incursion, that southern city of gauze of israel, the main threatening to go into on the ground where even when that is successful, we could expect perhaps, for things to shift into the north with this change in policy that could potentially be so now rebecca rivers there. let's turn from the west city of baltimore now where work is getting underway to clear the wreckage of the francis scott key bridge, which collapsed after being rammed by a freighter earlier this week. heavy lift, floating cranes have now arrived in the harbor to begin what local officials say will be a dante, clean up operation. this massive green,

the biggest on the us east coast capable of lifting a 1000 tons is part of the heavy duty equipment being brought in to clear the wreckage of the baltimore cambridge the process is expected to take several months and one of the challenges is that the key bridge, which sits on top of the vessel right now, that that weight is somewhere between $3.40 tons. so our team meets a cut that trust in the sections in a safe and responsible and in an efficient way before can lift those pieces out of the water. this crane that we're looking at is massive. the thing we also know was this. so it was a challenge ahead of us. more than a 1000 engineers have been deployed to assess the wreckage piece by piece and to

figure out how to remove it. so far, the bodies of 2 construction workers have been recovered. so jeff, let's continue to retrieve 4. are those still missing and presumed dead? all 6 men will flatten the american heritage and can see the immigrant advocacy groups have one of the victims. instead, the critical role of immigrant workers in the us, new country where you meet, runs our offering demo, not from the floor of the general assembly to the house of congress. here we are remind once again about the not most contribution that they meet runs make to this country how together we us more workforce. we build this country on top of the human tragedy is the financial impact of this disaster

experts, it a new bridge would take us to complete and cost hundreds of millions of dollars. let's bring you up to speed with some other world news stories. jeffrey donaldson, the leader of northern ireland main pro u k party, the d u p. has stepped down after he was charged with rate and other quotes, non recent sex offences. the news has done the region just 2 months after a deal, restoring the regions power, sharing executive police a rated the home of peruse president dina was the last day at the request of the attorney general's office. they're searching for an undisclosed collection of luxury watchers as part of an ongoing corruption investigation for the watch that has been criticized by officials for attempting to delay and appearance before ports. turkey goes to the polls on sunday and nationwide local elections that are

being seen as a barometer of political sentiments. present, rush up, a type of air to one is seeking to recapture the economic powerhouse of a stumble, which has justice and development party. last 5 years ago to the off position, or there is an old saying and talk is politics. who wins a stumbling winds, tucking the country's largest city and commercial heart is home to nearly 16000000 people about a fish for photography, select or 5 years ago. president ridge autonomy of ad one and is moving is allow me conservative ac last eastern boots of your position. now they want to say good. we will work hard, day and night and god willing on april 1st. december will be reunited with its owners. our goal is to add one isn't even running into selection,

but you wouldn't know we'd listening to his support as i am would try a better one until i die, god willing we will win the leader of the entire world. he stands up to everyone. ad one has been using his own popularity to support the a key piece candidate for my environment minister more that called them a symbols elections are not just about who will be the next man. the outcome is also possible for president ad one. this is the city where he grew up and where he launched his political career as mayor in the 1990. it's also where he sold a west political defeats office to decade room because of this man, a crim email blew from the secular opposition. c h p is stumbles, incumbent me back in 2019

a managed ssl team possible. he won the city hall and a heavily contested repeat election against ad one's candidate. the so tante mano, into an instance vigorous hope for the opposition today. he's why he sees as the main line of credit and add one political scientist back, as some tells me. where were, when is the metal seats in the stumble has access to enormous amounts of public resources, employees, tens of thousands of people and gains, a national platform to conduct politics. so e mal can win this election, most likely he's had that for becoming the main contented for the presidency against as long she, mammals, re election campaign has been focused on easing the cities, chronic traffic problems. it's making it simple safer, given the major earthquake risk in the region. but he's also faced with growing

poverty among the cities rather than mainly because of the government's failure to bring sewing inflation on the controller. although the elections are local, the stakes are high. for the main o position party, this is really a crucial election because if they were to lose a stumble and quite possibly own cut out, then they are, voters are going to be the motor life and probably lose much hope of uh on see think are gone through the ballot box, and that is really going to almost coordinate add on for the foreseeable future, and that he will remain as the president of the country until he basically quits pulled ethics. polls suggest the vote in houston bull will be a close run, the fast a consequential race, not just for the city but fatalities future. and just before we go, you may or may not be surprised to hear this, but it turns out that dogs are smarter than most people, thought researchers and hungry have put some pups to the test to see how their

brains react to familiar words. and the study found that dogs can identify a lot more words than most owners ever realized. that suggest maybe we should be giving them a little more credits. as many dog owners have the sense that their pets come, speak their language. if you say to adopt, bring me your ball that probably fitted, but do they have the picture in mind before retrieving it? of techs are external to the dogs and dogs get has to learn those words referred. they stand for something that is external to them. and it seems that this is a difficulty and it has been a very long debate in language evolution, comparative science. whether not humans can do that. this study involved 18 border collies, researches place census on the dogs heads to measure their brain activity. then the ducks know would name and toy the dog knew. but sometimes,

and this is where it gets interesting. they wouldn't show the actual tale. we expected that they have dogs, so we, they understand the meaning of the word of the object words. if we expect to see that object, and if the owner shows a different one, there will be a sub, a so called surprise reaction in the brain. and this is exactly what they found. so the se suggests that dogs have a mental image of the object when they hear the word. so well, i think the, these results, the results of the, the study might a line to what's most of the owners think of all the, their adults. so i think it's very nice is very super interesting and i think that is, that is my yes. like make our support the shows may be stronger. so dogs can connect words with real world objects. why then do some dogs refuse to do what we want? maybe they do understand, but simply choose not to act. and that is your news update f as our coming
