the thing for now i asked them when generation now on the computer screen is kind of funny. i feel like the this is the, the way it is live from berlin holds for a truce, then the war between israel and has lost us. officials say there is progress in peace negotiations, but for now there is no let up in the conflict this 11 on reports more than 3500 people killed. also in the program reports that a green fires, british storm shadow cruise missiles into russia for the 1st time believe as long range western web and launch by key a day after it's 1st use of us made attack up and a bomb cycle and batteries the pacific coast of the us and canada,

closing schools and knocking out power to more than half a 1000000 homes. at least 2 people have been killed by falling trees. the welcome to the show on the co, fairly hits gretchen have you with us. we started in the middle east where a top us diplomat hoping to seal a deal to hold. israel's military operations in lebanon is holding talks. you is on the almost hawks. i met with top lebanese officials in beirut on wednesday, fueling optimism overseas fire between the militant group has the law and israel, but hochstein still has to convince, is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu to go along with the truth proposal. fresh hope of breakthrough to end the fighting between israel and has been loc

could be within reach us envoy game is hochstein reported progress after more talks with lebanon's, parliament speaker who is leading mediation efforts on behalf of the militant group . so i just concluded another meeting with speaker barry the meeting today built on the meeting yesterday and made additional progress. so i will travel from here in a couple hours to israel, to try to bring this to a close. if we can, if we can is real as more with hezbollah escalated in september. its military ramped up air strikes and launch the ground incursion into lebanon in a bit to put an end to relentless rockett. far from the a ran fact militant group. since then, celebrities health ministry says more than 3500 people have been killed, has been law, has seen its leadership decimated, and its supply of arms greatly reduced to us back to peace proposal would create

a un buffer zone in southern lebanon, with both is really troops and has beloved fighters withdrawing, has been lost as it has reviewed the plan, but that its success depends on these rarely prime minister. a look on thursdays heavy, what do we expect these negotiations to produce a cease fire and a halt to aggression? quickly shut the city yet. no one can guarantee that because the issue is linked to these really responds, i really wasn't and nothing else was of serious. yes, i left the the phone and nothing young. israel has demanded that the freedom to respond to violations by hezbollah, be part of any potentials these fire deal us envoy hochstein is due to discuss the proposal with prime minister benjamin netanyahu on thursday. british media are reporting that for the 1st time, ukraine has fired the u. k. supplied storm shadow missiles into russia. either

ukraine or britain have confirmed those reports which say 12 of the missiles were fired into curse. a border region partially held by you framing and forces, a storm shadows or a long range cruise and the south developed jointly 5 and you pay and france their launch from fighter jets and have a range of more than 250 kilometers. earlier i spoke to military analyst and former british army officer, simon diggins, and you told me how storm shadow missiles could boost you creams war effort? i don't make a difference fussing. would you be careful to assume that this started going to transform your credit is worth it? why doesn't they do is to attack targets within russia itself? no, certainly still shut. the french version scope has been used against russian targets in occupied territories. and also in that case, for example, the area of crime in which restaurant quite in 2014, but most of the, the russian weapon systems took you the acronym. and then based on that,

which is something based on gusher. so, and that's those have been use case of the crate. now with these 2, these weapon systems are talking to us system and storm shadow scout, the friction french system. the ukraine cannot check those systems before the state the price, so they will make a difference. and they will have to deal with russia, for example, i have to replace them as a defense is newest terms of 2nd. they are important for the not necessarily gonna transfer me over the balance of forces. you buy a calculus forces in this, but this is jumped by the by the administration is also given. keep the go ahead to use american and type personnel land mines. let's listen to the us defense secretary lloyd austin, who said that that is a positive step. there, fabricating their own personal landmines right now. the land mines that we would look to, to provide them with the land mines that, that are not persistent. you know, we can, we can control when they would as a self self activate, self designate in the and that makes it, uh, you know,

far more safer eventually than the things that they are creating on their own that's, i mean, this is an interesting one because ukraine is a signatory to the mine bend treaty while the us and russia are not. how do you think he will justify using these us applied and type personnel landlines? i think there is an old with these are these portfolio because of a lot of people who are very supportive of ukraine. no less to be worried about long. so sex a bunch of press no much. and also if that's with a breach in a, in, in the use of i 2nd country to, to them are the only will be around the threat that rush suppose to is, particularly the need to create a strong defensive belt the rush. it couldn't probably try to in the future perhaps by way of comparison though they're not using much. we can look at what the pose of the power is not looking to build effectively as a strong defensive belford on their time. the eastern border with the arisen and

russia base each to slow down and to china loop from that i think what present cements we wanted to be used across now mind in much the same way. we do know, for example, at the moment, there are lots of the attacks that the russians are pretty and against a few trains kind of human wave type attack. i could be as personnel guns. what happened? i'll tell you a cast, reduce that to them, but psychologically as well, mine's are a very use the weapon system. they are often designed to wound roth to, but they have a real psychological effect on on. i'm sure i wasn't able to remember that he is, because if you comp trust the ground which you stand, and i say that has a clear psychological site on a particular entity. so i can say the but you all can sort of of but there's also that i think on the psychological barrier for the rest of the world in terms porch is, is that scatter pool the support for, for the defense. and it may make a lot of people just a little bit crazy about that supports in the future. as military analysts,

simon dickins. thank you so much for your time and all those insights. my pleasure to look now and some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. the united states has vetoed a un security council resolution calling for an immediate cease fire and gone though, because it did not call for the release of the hostages. the council voted 14 to one in favor for the us veto meant the resolution was not adopted. the result against former members of boy a bad one direction were among mourners. at the funeral of their band made liam paid. they joined, pains, family and friends for private service and bucking, i'm sure in england, when pain was found dead after falling from a hotel balcony and born to cyrus last month. the international criminal court has sentenced a key figure in an armed islam is group and malia to 10 years in jail. oh ha, son abdulla z served as a police chief in terms of to after has all kind of link groups seized power in

2012 who was convicted of war crimes and crimes against humanity in june to the gravity of the crow. you've got us out position leader has appeared in court accused of compromising national security charges case visiting and denies. his lawyer says that he was abducted days earlier during a book lunch and neighboring kenya, and prompting outrage among rights groups. pays the latest politician put on trial and a government crackdown on the opposition. in this school book, keys of the c. j 2. a minute 3 cools in the uganda and capital component of the long time critic of uganda and president. you're wearing the 70 received resoundingly welcome from support. as inside he was accused of seeking logistical support, including weapons, with the aim of what cost that you just called compromising uganda. national security. besides kenya,

prosecute as the let she held meetings in switzerland and greece. it was the retired army colonel did not idle charges and said since he is now a civilian, he should not be tried by military tribunal. i think it ought to be honest. so you have to make it rolling before we have uh, how does the benefit of legal representation mean that in recent months you guns and also a cheese have wage to crack down on the opposition. arresting permanently doesn't putting thousands of people on trial, but it's a matter of the c, j. 's detention that has caused the biggest up rule. his lawyer says he was in kenya for a book lunch when he was not pretended. he was never to deal in office being a judge, guardian, his team so uh and the new king said to me, to put our teams we're curious,

coming you from your gun to. he stormed to the press to do for the approximate way . i had to go up to him and chris dealt with buck here you go and they're old. so concerns that can years colluding in the kid not being a foreign nationals on it. so the governmental video gun to fight it to the, to the, to, to you integrate, to solve for, can you and if they do not to raise the issue, are both to that. it was yesterday demands to be a complete stupor. what is up in the notes that is only able to put them to the task? the c j was once a key ally of president was 70 before the to how to put new to cove pulling out since 2001. the c j has run against him in full elections without success. the siege and his supporters have been repeatedly targeted by the regime most recently in july, when dozens of members of his former party,

the form for democratic change were deported from kenya and tried in use. and on terrorism challenges, the c j has now been reminded in custody until december, the 2nd. so you can't and government has didn't know i have done seeing him instead insisting he was legally arrested. we've can use knowledge, something can you says he's untrue? at least 2 people haven't killed after a powerful storm known as a bomb cycle and hit the pacific coast of the us and canada. the major storm batter the northwestern us down in trees and power lines. hundreds of thousands of residents in washington state were left without power. as another round of storms is expected in the coming days, authorities are issued. warnings were heavy mountain snows, dangers flash, flooding, and rock slides. earlier i spoke to meteorologist matthew poochie and he explained what exactly a bomb. psych loan is as long as i, as soon as a rapidly intensifying middle attitude,

the low pressure system. so all the stores we get, those are low pressure systems and they suck air in the water bottles i phone does is a rapidly lift air on the middle cost and like a back in the middle. and that in just those really strong winds force the power of a suction, and that's what you get gust over, say, a 100110 kilometers per hour. now for a bond, so it's going to occur the minimum pressure has to drop about 2 percent in about 24 hours. so you're lifting 2 percent of the air up in out the middle in today's time this thing nearly tripled that rate. so it's like a double or triple long, incredibly explosively straight then. and that's why the winds have been so strong . the other thing to this counter clockwise spinning storm tubs, a strip of moisture from near wine all the way towards california, getting them to a rachel, downpours in northern part of the state, with realistically like 20 to 35 centimeters with all said and done there in part of the climb up range in the northern part of state at this is being called by some

a ones and a decade phenomenon. you just explain how it comes into being. but what is so unusual about this bomb cycle. so the occur every winter, for the most part over the north atlantic, the north pacific. you guys occasionally get them in europe to what's happening this time is that it's a little farther south were ordinarily, should be there. really impressive thing is that the rate of strengthening is not only unprecedented in this part of the ocean, but how far it kind of bottom out, how load the pressure glass is also outside our sort of historical database for so far. so, i mean, is it the same latitude is like portland, oregon, and so that's why this storm is one of such a significant impact. really, how it so widespread. the fact even a blizzard conditions in the cascades of washington and serious snowfall in oregon, in the mountains they are and then all the way down to california with the original rape on a higher risk of last flooding. it goes to show you how big the storm system is. and even in the past hour, each juanita warning issue for coastal washington that hardly ever happens,

certainly not november. that was made her ologist matthew computers speaking to me earlier. and with that, we've reached the end of our show with sig, around, if you can, we have an interview coming up with columbus environment minister. i'll be back with more at the top of the next hour. hope see you there. the name is the calls back. said wow, thank you so much for joining in. welcome to don't hold bad. a lot of people do that. it's all about saying it's loud and mess with it being nosy bay like get everyone talking to me. check out the award winning called call. don't call back you might see me how much can we do simultaneously?
