journalist mad hunt is at court, and it joins us live now. thank you so much for taking the time. first of all, we're just as ruling leave the parties. members. claire, that's a great question here. the constitutional court is mostly empty, but just one hour ago, it was packed full of people who were wondering just the same thing. and so this is not the 1st party dissolution in thailand. it's actually one of the 30 and approximately the last 30 years. and so this party has actually spent the last few weeks telling people that they should be prepared for this to happen, that they were expecting it. mister p. todd and jollin rob being the one who was really leading those costs for people to accept that this was probably what was going to happen. and so although people are mad and people are upset and they would like to have seen this not be the case, it was a bit expected. however, here at the court, there was actually a group of people who were cheering people who were here to support and defend the
12:03 pm
as my, just a law and not reforming it. and they wanted to see him go. and so it came from here to the streets and now they will conduct some speeches and, and try to perhaps talk more about the future reincarnations of the move forward party. you can put this into a wider context for us. what does this decision and the kind of reactions that we're seeing to it tell us about the state of hi democracy today? yeah, certainly, i think that the state of tie democracy is trouble, but stronger than ever. and in my opinion, because although this party has just been disbanded one again, it's not the 1st time this has happened before, but they won the election in 2023 in a landslide, which was unheard of may 114000000 votes. and so as they de tie himself as well as many people within the party had said, they believed that this just means that they will come back stronger. and that the next election will be there for the taking though. it may not be this exact party
12:04 pm
because they've received the band. they believe that the pro democracy movement is stronger than ever and will most definitely take the next election. is it too soon to say exactly what that might look like? what kind of strategies are coming up ahead? would it be a matter of the pro democracy movements and coalescing around a different party? the pro democracy movement will have to call us around a different party because all those, many of the parties in the current government say that they are pro democracy. there's a lot of issues that the general public or people who would have been move forward party voters are taken with it. so i think that they will definitely put all of their strength behind whichever party is created from this. but the damn piece of the move, our party will also have 60 days to switch parties. um and so its at that time that will see if they move to another party or if they create one enjoying amongst themselves, which is most likely to happen in my opinion. well, thank you so much for joining us with that update. that is journalist not hunt in

12:15 pm
a big reason why people want him because we are tired all of the, the main street village, both parties and the way that the have been governing the country for the last many years. and the last time we had a public uprising of this nature wasn't 1919, which gave rise to the parliamentary democracy. that'd be great if we have we want a fresh start. that's what we want to india has reportedly evacuated all non essential staff and their families from its diplomatic missions in neighboring banquet dash that after the weeks of unrest of that forest prime minister shake has she has seen that to quit and flee. reuters quoted to indian government source as the saying that all indian diplomats remain in bangladesh or earlier, dw correspondent charlotte yard off in deli, gave me an update on that story. okay, then what about 19000 and then so who resided in bangladesh? uh before all of this, so on, forwarded over the last 3 days. uh and the form and its still opened yesterday and

12:17 pm
while replaces, is my attorney who was assassinated in or wrong last week and an attack complaint on israel as well believes in our plans the october 7th terror attacks. and it's been pursuing him ever since. yes, yes. and what is how mazda is taught, both in gaza, born in the con eunice refugee camp. he had been with the militant group since it's beginnings in the late 19 eighties around the time that the 1st intifada, or palestinian uprising against is riley occupation. back then he laid a security mit with which tracks down palestinians accused of collaboration with israel. and while was jailed by israel in 1988 for planning the abduction in mood or of to his riley soldiers and the mood of for palestinians. it was locked up for 23 years. eventually released in 2011. he was one of more than 1000 palestinian prison is exchanged for one is right,
12:18 pm
and the soldier as having served as a commander of how most his military wing sin one was elected. as the groups gauze, alida in 2017, he issued this threats while speaking to crowd some jobs in december 2022. we will come to you god willing in a rolling slot. we will come to you with an endless number of rockets. we will come to you in a flood of soldiers without limit. we will come to you with millions of foundation tide after the tide is ran to choose this. and while it was being the chief plan or of the october 7th terror attacks, which killed $1200.00 people and took more than $250.00 others hostage in gaza. i don't need to confirm it. do i have it?
12:19 pm
the one who decided on this despicable attack was here as in law, the suffering of the gaza strip. and therefore he and the whole system under him are as good as dead. we will attack them, we will dismantle them. we will dismantle the system to get them out of your set. your name is riley forces have hunted him relentlessly targeting gases underground tunnel network, where he is believed to be hiding from israel's attacks, which have killed tens of thousands of palestinians. earlier i asked her correspondence to rebecca renters whether the appointment of a new weight or could bring about a change in i'm also strategy. when it comes to strategy, i think it's unlikely we're going to see major changes in how about the strategy of anything. it's likely the appointment to be i got some more as likely to lead him us in a more hotline direction, but yeah, guessing what was already seen as the most powerful leader of the organization.
12:20 pm
he's considered a shrewd operative having spent years in it is rarely present. he was released in 2011 and a prisoner swamped with israel. and he quickly rose the ranks to become the leader of how some goals are in 2017 who's seen is of secretive, elusive, and having close links to iran. but most recently, he was definitely considered the major mazda mind if you will, behind the october 7 attacks. and really, since then, has been, has had the final word on decisions made by the organization when it comes to strategy. and of course, when it comes to those say fired hostage negotiations. now regarding those negotiations, of course, i think the appointment of seymour is not going to have any positive effects on on them. when is now honey, is a political leader of the mass with assassinated. you know, it was lots the sort of a lot of the big spoken hearing around by pundits analyst and the like that the negotiations were all but data in the war to now with this
12:21 pm
a confirmation of saying want as the ultimate leader of hamas, i don't think we're likely to see any positive steps towards i say sign it goes, she, agents and not least of all to mention the logistical issues. and why is, of course, a thought to be living on the ground on the gaza in the tunnel network, making it very difficult to even enter into these negotiations messages, getting to and from him being very, very difficult. so it definitely not a positive positive step forward with the negotiations back over here as far as their now a rescue operation is underway. in western germany where crusade, the death toll has risen to to after a hotel collapsed, emergency surfaces have rescued 4 people with 3 more still trapped under the russell in the town of a crew of police, as he saw may be seriously injured. nearby homes have been evacuated in around 250 rescue workers are on the scene. police say the risk of further collapse has made the rescue operation. extremely demanding must bring. indeed,
