the hello. i'm clear, richards and welcome. we start in bangladesh, where the country is chief justice has submitted his resignation after an ultimatum from student protesters. the protest, but also the prime minister, shaken scene are now widening to target. more officials appointed during her administration. chief justice, a wydell, how sign is one of several judges viewed as being loyal to the former leader, students are said to have warrant him of dire consequences if he did not step down well, david bergman's, an investigative journalist who has worked for several banquet, dashing newspapers, here is his take on those resignations. i don't think this is the right approach. i think it is important obviously to recognize that the people within the civil
8:02 pm
service in the police, in the cold system and then other institutions have worked locally for the you want me, but you can't get to remove them. you create a huge amount of problems. if you do that, you get a situation of the country, me on a, i don't know which ones for anybody with a warming, the cleanings. i'm in the pot. it was people in the b and b who was treated like this. it was not correct. not right. for people in you want me to be treated and his passion. it's important for the interim government to get ahold of us. that may be some appointments that they do need to change, but they should try to work with the existing system as far as they can try to persuade them to. there's a new, a new dispos dispensation in town. and they must move away from the largest to the breed of the previous regime. otherwise, i think it was a pretty much any of these thoughts or seem to remove of, of so many people in the existing system. and it'd be very difficult to replace them. we're going to replace, so these judges, we're going to replace with the civil 7th,
8:03 pm
if they try to do that. that was investigative journalist and david bars. man, russian state media is reporting that more than 76000 people have been evacuated from the course region after the biggest ukranian advanced into russia during the war. so far. moscow is rushing military equipment to the border region where a state of emergency is in force. hundreds of ukrainian troops poured over the border on tuesday, ukrainian presents, let them use the lensky has acknowledged. he has said they are pushing the war into russian territory. let's get more on this from the frank lead wedges lectures in the strategic studies at portsmouth university and was a british military intelligence officer frank, welcome. i'd like to ask you 1st about this acknowledgement we've just heard from. is a lensky, are you surprised that it took so long to hear from ukraine, authorities confirming that they have in fact, on this a good evening, sir? no, not really. i think it was a small move,
8:04 pm
not to acknowledge this until now. the mistakes i've made before, particularly concerning other major military operations, specifically the counter offensive last year that the bike 5 was a very poor expectation management, sorry, say. and now there is a logic caution into, into russia. it's, it's not just a few 100 troops. i would assess say we're talking elements, at least a full brigade, so we're looking way up way north of 5, maybe $10000.00 troops. and the situation is stabilizing now, which may also impact on the lenses announcement, otherwise have not been driven back up very quickly. so, so now it's officially announced and that, that will buy stabilizing. what exactly do you mean there, that ukrainian troops are digging in to where they've pushed toward us? probably to exactly that the goal. so i think stopped on a, on a, on a major scale expanding out to, to establish presence and i always outside the defended territory. so you have to
8:05 pm
understand that there is somebody to update, whether there is a distinction between the as well you have a presence in areas that are defended the way you have control. so it's just about your practice as you say. now i'll be getting to digging too into defensive positions, awaiting the inevitable counter attack, which i think will be, will come over the next week or 2 weeks. it will take a while because i still suffer from huge disadvantages and not, not defensive roll. save disadvantages else elsewhere except now they won't have prepared positions and rushes defense ministry has said reinforcements are being sent to the region to counter this incursion. where do you think these reinforcements are coming from? oh, that's a great question. i think there's been quite a few people saying that one of the purposes of this and caution o x or reinforced right, something i might call it, has been to drool troops from the south. whether you print these or under severe pressure. i think it, this operation does have relationship with this really said,
8:06 pm
just such a diversion for not, but i don't think it would be foolish to, for the russians to draw a come back to some nice area. they've done sort of things in the past. of course, i think it's much more likely they will go to it's and that results already national guard units are moving in. they will, i think, apply considerable strength, a considerable force not to dislodge this. right now notice to contain this incursion. they don't need launch forces, they simply need forces in place and they're beginning to get those that now and you expect we will continue to see things develop here or will folks eventually shift back toward the self they will be developed as come back will start off as he said, 17000 people have been us go bit and they've got to make it very wise. there's going to be this going to be tense. come back to this area and we'll see what happens. we don't really know enough about the forced balance yet, but look, the main fight is in the south. it's does not. russia is not making slow,
8:07 pm
but very steady and important advances towards the town of per cross. i'm looking to hear a lot more about us over the next 2 or 3 months. well, thank you. as always for sharing your insights with us, that is military expert, frank lead wedge. thank you. or turning out or some other news at the top e. u officials have joined a growing course of condemnation after and is rarely airstrike when a school compound killed dozens in casa city. the use top diplomatic, joseph morales expressed his horror at the attack, which a gauze and officials say, has killed more than 90 people who were sheltering in the school. egypt and guitar are demanding an urgent investigation, and united states has said it is quote, deeply concerned about the strike. israel has repeatedly claimed that homeless use of schools as cover in the wake of the october 7th. the terror attacks tampa in school reduced to ruins after news. rarely err striking browser. according to an
8:08 pm
official from dancers from us run government around $6000.00 displaced. people were seeking shelter in the compound. at the time. witnesses say the school came under attack while people were offering don prayers. hey, i just love talk to for that is true. as usual, didn't get a warning on approval. it strikes regardless of whether they're children, women, young, or older adults only imagine that these were peaceful people with the most kindly illness. people were praying when i was washing the some were sleeping upstairs, including children, women and older people and on the missile, hit them without any warning. the 1st one missile. and then another one was the we were covered them as body part. danny, we, i mean for a lot of them as that the is really military has confirmed the strike thing into the homeless command and control center embedded within the site. it says numerous
8:09 pm
steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians. many of the casualties were rushed to gaza. cities, all ali hospital be dropped to messiah on while we were just pre the fear. god people feared, god. arabs, fear, god, destroyed comes at a time when mediators, egypt guitar and saudi arabia are pushing to resume ceasefire talks. but egypt foreign ministry says that quote, the deliberate killing of cause of civilians shows israel has no intention of ending the war or correspondents tonya cramer. it has more now from jerusalem about what israel has said about this strike. as well as military maintains that advise
8:10 pm
a place for hum austin or to its allow me to operatives where using basically as the command center, the school and moscow compound where people were forced to shelter. many people have been displaced so many times and they're so doing in the schools no statement this morning already said that the idea of the military had struck with position guy dismiss size. it also claimed have you heard this also repeatedly in other strikes a hum us for operating was in a civilian showed us basically taking people as human shields and a military spokes person also questioned the numbers that were given outside the house of socrates and goes about the number of casualties. now having said that, this is not the 1st strike since we're seeing the un human rights office reduced the statement today and said they have recorded over 20 strikes on schools and in the last month alone since july of 4th. and they also have said, you know,
8:11 pm
why that is, of course, would be a great foundation if, according to international you many turn know if i'm groups use, the schools also is what has an obligation to international humanitarian know. and they have to look at questions like proportionality and taking precautions. so what we're hearing from eye witnesses down the ground, there are these casualties that many injured the they have burns, many have lost limbs. and this comes, of course, on the backs, top off a very difficult situation and goes as hospitals that have difficulties to deal with us as such. a mass casualty events. just as a egypt said that as well as quote, deliberate killing of an armed palestinians. it shows that it's lackley political will to end the war in gaza. what impact do you think the stripe will have on the cease fire talked we are expecting a new round this thursday as well. i'm not so sure what difference this strikes
8:12 pm
we make as, as we seen, other strikes on schools in recent weeks. but of course, it underlines the need for sci fi, and we've heard these condemnations, especially also here in the region from egypt, from jordan, from the united arab emirates, but also from the you. but of course, with people in gaza, these are mainly words. it doesn't really change the situation for them. so last week we heard from the mediators from colorado, from egypt, uh, also from united states that they have rescheduled talks uh or scheduled talks for next thursday. we also got a confirmation from the is really side from the prime minister's office that they will send a delegation. but we also hearing from prime minister benjamin netanyahu, that the war will only end a when hum us is removed from power the also year from sources with in homicide. they're also studying a proposal, but it's very difficult at this point to understand where those talks spend uh,
8:13 pm
where you know whether they have any chance of success. also given the situation in the region where the region is waiting for some sort of or possible retaliation by husband or a round against israel, but it's all connected. of course, what is going on in garza so it's very hard to understand where those talks will be going. well, thank you so much for bringing us up to speed there. that is tanya kramer, our correspondent, reporting today from traverse around to now jerry inbox, or a mind how he's has won a gold medal at the paris olympics emerging as a champion after a controversial run at the games. we've endured intense scrutiny in the ring and online abuse for misconceptions about her gender. we've beat a young view of china of 5 to 0 in the final of the women's well to wait division. fans embrace away from paris even as she faced extraordinary scrutiny from tom to questioned her eligibility or falsely claims that she was
