it can be the generation, the ends that so good. malaria must die. so millions can live the, this is the w news live from the serious 2nd largest city now, mostly in rebel had, is the most fun to celebrate their advance into a laptop. and the biggest challenge can be, is to the regime of basha. i saw also coming up georgia as prime minister says the state will not allow or revolution off the 10s of thousands joint anti government protest. demonstrates the angry at the suspension of talks to join. you are paying the

us, i'm anthony. how, thanks for joining us. we begin with the biggest challenge in years to the regime of syrian president bashar assad. thousands of rebel is list 5 has of taken out of a much of the 2nd city, a level. also facing control of the airport in thousands of towns and villages, syria and its l. i. russia has carried out a strikes against the rebels. assad has vowed to defeat the insurgents. rebel fighters celebrate in the central town square in the heart of a level the fire of victory shots some even get down on their knees and kissed the ground upon them for the hosp, the happiness as indescribable. the happiness of liberating the city of an echo. but we're now in the main square, we've been waiting for this for 10 years. it's an indescribable feeling. while the brother was mounted here and the left boat, 13 years ago, praise to go to bed. praise to god, allow me to go, hunt,

allow me to go home. this video reportedly shows armed gunman in trucks seizing control of the cities. civilian airport. the syrian army admit sits loss control of much of a level which had held for 8 years. and dozens of its soldiers were killed when a coalition of rebel groups launched a surprise attack. a few days ago, they seized a military base weapons and even tanks from syrian government forces. the lightning offensive is led by the islamic group, hyatt, terry shawn or h t. s, which used to be outside his branch in syria before severing ties. the coalition consists of multiple groups with differing ideologies. what unites them is their opposition to syrian president charlotte side. this assault is the biggest challenge in new years to his regime and his jolted the front lines of the syrian

civil war that have largely remained frozen since 2020. the rebels have also taken control of dozens of strategic towns and how about an inland provinces. russia launched a series of overnight strikes across the city in a bid to stop the rebels. it was the 1st time in 8 years, russian war planes hit a level the alright, let's bring in air and so then the fellow at the washington institute for near east policy and the founder of g had all the g dot net a good that'd be with us one day ring of what serious president bella, special al assad. a said that the government will do everything to beat the terrorist. do you believe at this point the syrian army is indeed strong enough to repel rebel forces? i think in the areas that it's the court territory is where you have minority

groups like the lights, which is what the regime is from as well as others like the smileys and she even the working with christians and sort of the coastal areas. a sir, as well as around damascus, it will be useful, but in terms of those outlying areas that we've seen them quickly on take from the regime, it's gonna be very difficult. it's important to remember that the areas that the regime took from the insurgency back in the, you know, 2015 to 2020 was mainly done by russian air power as well as ronnie and proxy networks in the ground. right, so what do we know aaron? adapt the militants, h t s, and what we know specifically about the foreign backend. i mean for the most part they primarily rely upon their own governance locally within northwest syria via text ation. as well as commerce. of course, there's cross border trade with turkey because it's on the turkish border. but unlike you know, other rebel groups in series such as the syrian national army,

which is backed by turkey, h, she has, has been mainly independent and declared. uh, so they pot still seems to be gaining ground taking grounds. we've seen even some reports about classes in the capital of damascus. and ken the rebels, realistically, gain control are the major areas in the country. well, we've already seen them take a level as well as how my city, which is unprecedented. we didn't even take this when, when the rebels took a lot of areas a decade ago. so we're seeing has never happened before in the history of the steering conflict over the last 14 years. however, now they're starting to get into sort of the chord territories of words. there seems strong hold is on the coastal regions and we'll talk in our two's uh, parts of homes that are from a, as well as damascus. and that will be a bit tougher because that's where a lot of the security forces and intelligence agencies are in

a way that maybe there weren't in other areas in northern syria, which was primarily being propped up by iranian proxy molar show. and what options do assad's back is? you mentioned russia earlier. russia in a run have right now. or they're definitely in a more difficult position now, compared to when russia 1st enter the conflict a decade ago, as well as iran because of russia's involvement in the morning crane as was recently runs backing. and both from us and his bola, in the word that israel's been conducting against them. and therefore both of them had been weakened on some level or have other priorities right now. and that's one of the ways that h t s, as well as hodge podge of other groups had been able to take advantage. i imagine that over the next week or so that you know, there will be a ton of meetings between the russian through team iranians, different c, a militia from a rock from love in on. even possibly even bringing in the who is these now because

of how successful they seemed in their campaign and you know, in the, i'm in, over the last year. so, and how that they might be able to push back. the question is, if they have enough manpower, as well as military capabilities, as they did a decade ago, just because the context has changed so much in the past that, you know, especially the last 4 years. yeah. the syrian conflict had subsided fully. some years with these, when this rebels loudly confined to one area around did it live? now this flare up, can this you think lead to a full blown conflict? again? i think some of the places to look for in the future is in the south in region, which is just south of damascus. that's the cradle of the revolution, where the 1st protests happen in 2011. if they're able to get things going in the province next door and swayed, has been actively protesting against the regime, which is from dominantly drew's. um for the last year. so. so there's definitely

a lot of points where the regime is, is we can not able to control different parts of the country beyond just what we're seeing in the north. and one more before we go to the us involvement or potential involvement here. um, how do you say that unfolding? it's been quite surprising that the us government actually hasn't said one thing about what's been going on yet, and it's been 4 days now. obviously it's thanksgiving in the united states, but still, this is a monumental event in syria. i suspect that for the most part it will stay out of it. there might be some diplomatic um, you know, meetings and trying to work out things. but the reality is, is a lot of the players in the ground that are forcing these events and what's going on there really doesn't have to do in the united states, at least for now, unless it gets into eastern syria, where the us presence is in its fight against islamic state. and so on. many thanks for your time. thank you. no crowds have gathered for

a 3rd. not a protest in the georgian capital, tennessee. after the rolling georgia dream potty suspended talks to join the european union, administer it actually come back to, to says the state will not allow a revolutions take place. tens of thousands demonstrate that the other, the last 2 not more than a 100. the rest of us georgians want to join the a you some polls show as much as 80 percent public support. it definitely is. maria mata is covering the protests into policing. she told us the purchases now to keep turning up to spot the police box. yes, the protests to say that it's a, a, a what they call russian style or dispatch so, and they say that they're here protesting, right? because the government is using those sort of russian tactics. the and the introducing russian laws and the decision to suspend you the discussion of use

that is also sort of playing right into the kremlin. you put in the times. and that's why people are protesting this sort of general political safety that the georgia dream government is taking now. um, eliminating many pro west to do a georgia's from the west. and the people say that, you know, despite the violence they use to protest because they saw these sites up very high, their future now is being decided and they cannot a lot the, the government, which many actually here i see as a legitimate government, given the contested elections and election irregularities that were documented by local and national examiners. so it's quite, it's still developing here. we don't know where the protests will leads from here, but it's quite a serious development on the ground. all right, let's take a look now. some of the other stories making headlines around the world. the so

this is randy forces have intensified their results on pods and gaza. thank showing course multiple explosions, east of yeah, by law in the central casa. and while thousands of people were killed or wounded in an abstract or multi story building in the north, according to the emergency services office for released, a video of an american is riley hostage is the 1st time the militant group has shown living hostage in several months and the content suggest the video is recorded in recent dice. it's rarely, authorities believe around 50 hostages could still be alive guys. now 3rd in the maybe where the opposition later says he's probably will not recognize the results of an election that was not by chaos. and accusations of foul play of the engine any a toilet has accused the electro commission, the trying buses. presidential election began last wednesday, and i have to be extended until today as technical problems prevented many from

costing they've ballots. opposition is hoping to ins, 34 he is approved by the south west african paper organizations for the deputy reporter, yes. conversed as the latest from the capital when the official election date on the 27th of november was mob with logistical issues ranging from a local public papers to electronic devices overheating and a lot of movie. and voters was simply not able to cost the votes on the official election date. there was an outcry by the public. there was an outcry by oppositional policies. and this has led to the electoral commission of new movies taking a unique decision in the history of this country. and they extend the voting period for another 2 days. this period has no lips to officially as of 2100 local time to night. and we are awaiting the official results. meanwhile, we already have statements by an oppositional candidates stopped bundling the 2

ducks, the state to the selections can be called fee free and credible. and he won't recognize the official result. well, that actually means we'll have to wait and see, but i am sure that the discussions around the selections will continue long after the official election results have been published. state of the report, a yes go list. the individual of thousands have gathered in the eastern spanish city of valencia to protest the handling of catastrophic floods that devastated the bridge and a month ago, instead of the chance of slogans calling for original leaders to resign. the jail and the candles and memory of the victims. expense west floods in a generation killed 230 people, lift straits homes. and businesses was in much the deputy corresponds. nicole bridges has this update now from the late one months after the

oh you lost on the run start station. the a c d w. the can remember the mechanics, the guy has dedicated his life to becoming a foot bonus, but he's had to face some of the toughest challenges imaginable. since arriving in england from if he up here in 2021 has been moved around the country and in and out of temporary housing has twice been forced out on to the streets as anything in the box and looking cause they have. but i'm not the only one, many young people who assigned them the king cause in manufacturers waiting, causing this very frustrating. and if we had a, a name in this, how does the system work?

so you have to wait. and then once they give you take that down, scratch, it's more, it has to be the message. despite being a partial may assembly and living with constant uncertainty that kinda keeps the sport at the heart of his life. worried my eyes, i see my everything making me focus on things. that's what makes me focus on my life. his determination is clear, but can someone without a home really makes football his life? because he is still think so and will soon travel to the homeless wills come. he has become used to other coming the toughest challenges. the in 2020 his home city of ad, but came on the seats in the civil rule between the c o. p and national defense forces on the cheek ry people's liberation front mckayla and his family were bystanders. when the will reach the hometown where we were not ready

for this industry within the city, we just do our daily lives. and then suddenly they come shooting me, kid, my friends, it can. hello my friends kid was they did this even? whoops. come to me to my mind. so when i remember i couldn't even sleep an estimate. it's 600000 people, died in the war including let, if mckayla is brothers and some of his cousins, millions more were displaced. mckinney was one of those. he took, apparently, is crossing from if he up here to europe on the smugglers boat before ending up in the infamous, kindly refuge account, known as the jungle. eventually of the countess attempts to cross the channel to england. it was uh, really scary. i never thought that were gonna be out from this that, you know, he explained for this. i can tell you how i would just so it's

a big got protection that he felt he had to take any chance to leave. mccain is still loans for his homeland. yeah, let me say so much so much. yeah, i, i missed my friends. i missed my from the everything is i can say like, my city that i, i, i really miss the 3 years on from his departure and with assigned them. finally granted. mckayla is now looking forward. he has a room and a suppose to commendation house in north london and his enjoying life in england. he has been welcomed into these here in community in the city and found plenty of friends to football. 55, you must be kind. the other states of the head to the best, if you want to support someone's indication, this kind of system is very helpful for benefits. you like me. this is why i really

appreciate that one of us can see. even in the tough times he never stopped following history. mckayla was in the youth team of one of the of his top clubs for me is for 20 is not my life since i was kid. and it's less it was and then might adjust my coaches. they would respond to my father don't, don't live and stuff is to tell him to tease. we had a good the big stadium of the city is, draws our house scores foot from my back and then go play the stadium. and then yeah, it was like easy for me to play for foot since coming to england he has been in and out of lowering the flux. but now i think jones has come his way. he's been selected to play for england at the homeless world cup, and so south korea, the tournament gathers hundreds of homeless people from all over the globe for weeks on the street soccer tournament. every year. i'm heading now. i'm doing what i love plain support approaching and, and

a huge in preparation has been training every day at a local punk soon his talent was noticed. coach semi so mccain a training alone and now trains and advises him on how to get a professional contract for semi the way mckayla deals with such challenging circumstances makes in stand out. it takes resilience. it thanks. i for some days it comes to know, so i mean, each you said, well then that empty, you know, so okay, don't worry, we'll take care. few after that. after the 20, sometimes i see like it wants to drop and it's always that. okay, so let's, let's call it today. so, no, no, no, i have to good just right. it just something especially something unique that i was sending a lot of players and other people, so i don't have the so i cannot come to training. i'm cold. no, no matter what, he's racing outside, it doesn't affect somebody sees real potential in mckinney ability wise,

the premier, she plans that i see, you know, there's no different that you have to prove it. the only if it's paid off himself, korean mckinney was top score as england qualified through the group stage, then helped his team b. so usa and indonesia and the knockouts his teammate, certainly appreciated his contribution. i liked him as a person as a moodle. why? even so big time i put in the clinic to finish off these get into a professional team. we can also gained a lot from the bonus, foamed in korea. i made many fan to die and gauge is a lot of mission. this is the wonder for it's wonderful. it can hear me stories the about the plan as they pass space here. they have amazing background. you know,

they made it this far so you're really proud of them. and, and i love many things from this terms. i can face a huge experience them and so i'm very excited on the pitch. it all came down to the final against mexico, the most successful nation of all time in the tournament. the mexicans got off to a fly before dabbling. indeed soon off to england, recruit as mechanic got them up and running his gold chains. the momentum with england suddenly dominance, the equalizes soon followed tool. the men in watch were suddenly brimming with confidence. taking the lead for the 1st time lost their opinions would not lie down spell, oppression have finally bringing it to 3. 0, then it must be intense. physical bass will also bull incident change everything the

mckinney was sent out the, the england for to the end. but just couldn't hold on mexico. eventually one maybe starts with a 65 when that is so i couldn't get over the line, the experience of a different culture and city and the chance to meet people from all over the world was invaluable to mckinney. stuck in london, the pain of the defeats and still stings the base of the mazda fina. i was expecting the window to the one week and very half. so it was like then the session i couldn't think unfortunately, was,

was to come soon after landing. mckinney was told he'd been evicted because his landlord wanted to sell the house. it was a bishop blow at the moment. uh before me, it's hot, but i'm just starting from scratch now. yeah, it's hot for me on the move. he's bought from a loan in this struggle. there are an estimated 350000 homeless people in england from a population of 58000000. and in london, the situation is even worse. one in $53.00 people in the capital, a homeless and nearly $5000.00 people sleep rough across the city every night of 18 percent on the previous year. i think we're facing unprecedented numbers of people coming to the streets. jenny, to best us as the director of housing and services at london homeless chevy see the passage from my professional experience, the worst i've ever seen. that because there are ways to move people up the street or to prevent people from becoming homeless. we just don't have the accommodation

available. so it is a constant struggle. in her view, young people like mikaela a have been hit particularly hard by government policies. but the ousting of the countries conservative governments monday the earlier this year office some shoots of hi. my impression is this government is going to look at water harden's us, and for as much as we can say, the government policy will build will build $1500000.00 additional hines. they didn't get billed overnight. so it's the between now and then. and one that says doing the same thing over and over again, it's just not working. so i say, i think there is hope, and i think there is a need for part radical change. we can assess and lead never lost his home. and so nowadays that has been remote in the management of his old house has changed and he's got a new room really. i can do my own thing. so i can think i can do i once. i think

the 2nd thing, you know, when you don't have house is this hot. so by now i can do my own things. evans, because of my support a medication was yeah, things are looking up fast having been through the london housing system before because it knows it's unlikely to last put in the secure pass by london. there's a lot of house things such and in the, in the minutes we always have to, the cost of the furnace is i left, you know, you tell me the time, the homeless tomorrow. you don't know. i'm anyways, i left on this, but for now i can say i'm say 10. i'm focused, i'm happy with the place to sleep suicide. he can once again dedicate all his energy to fulfilling the dreams he's carried with him on his journey from otwell. yeah, i'm going to pay for that this semester to me. i'm really for the day if i'm going to looking for was in my life now. next now is a bank to sign any club,

any forklift, so which i'm working on. it's my, what is my quotes with people. i don't know me, i don't me so that helping me i'm also looking for us as you know, i'm just doing what it has to do and then we'll see what's uh what's, what's the help of finding a home and finding ix not one a human necessity and the other, a lifelong passion. the 2 main forces in mikaela is life rarely compliment each other. but he's made at this fall by boxing the arts and he shows no signs of stopping now the on the show, a ride road

guides know the way around the is strictly scientific truth system, pretty cheap places. curiosity is we tried tomorrow today next on d, w. we see sick animals, genetically deformed animals dying animals. we witness so much suffering. there's more than you could ever imagine bringing criminals, happy traitors to heal. dump trafficking market is west 1000000000 euros. most of the animals undocumented. and i'll often mistreated, sort of the activision shining lines in 30 minutes. on the d. w.
