11:03 am
lot of the bodies were insult room is with very low temperatures. we kind of identify the dates of death until we finish all the tests. there's some torture marks, some signs of surgical operations. we cannot determine yet organs was stolen. they were put holes in somebody's, they could be from field execution. so that's not a problem. i've done made dining while these families search for their dad, the city is slowly returning to normality. markets in damascus are open again. they are an optimistic mood profiles because of the support here's um, i did not expect this. people are really happy. they're really happy on video. i heard the everyone comes to sylvia. of the situation is excellent. the time they say today is chaos. but there's nothing on the situation is excellent. we're in a transitional phase. we must ensure this pressure is
11:04 am
a transitional phase that we hope will pass well and we will be back to them before on wednesday, the interim leaders also lifted the curfew in the capital to encourage people to go back to work and help rebuild syria, the w stella mana is following developments for us in damascus. and they asked her what the interim governments next steps are going to be in to room government as well as i was, you know, i need the need of h t as are making a lot of promises at the moment. they are saying that they will grant rights to ok, so you're in also the minorities that nobody has to worry. they said that they will connect the syrian market again to the global market as to end syria's ice of nation and kind of as a nation that has been there over the last the years. they also say that there will
11:05 am
be justice for the people who have be tortured and that all these uh presents will be closed. um, they also told russia that they can even uh, keep the military bases and sierra if they stop bumping their country and, and stick to that. uh so you, they are a lot of big promises. uh, and it is also a little bit, of course, what people here are wanting to hear, but also what the international community is looking forward to here. certainly is for a minister as cautions that all acts of revenge needs to be avoided. how big is that desire for vengeance against members of the former system as well? we hear this all over again. uh, the rebel 5 says do say that that wouldn't be any revenge. everything is safe. that it was the one that really spread this message of everything is under control.
11:06 am
nobody has to worry. i also experience that myself when i am on the streets. and when i encounter some of the rebel fighters who are here to, to kind of establish a new order, they're really friendly and they really want to spread this message of everything is under control. but of course, a fuse massive that's uh the other we, when as a group now especially the consequences of, uh, the regime of the site. and it's also always the question what the need to say and, and how people behave. because we clearly can see that there's a lot of anger to a set. susie meant that a lot of people, one at that the old regime will be held accountable for older crimes that has been committed as the w, stella mina in the syrian capital, damascus. thank you for that update. so serious that's up for the post aside era. the countries desperate armed factions are looking to cement their own interests.
11:07 am
among them are curtis lead sirian democratic forces. the s p. s has held large parts of syria, east of the euphrates rivers in here in yellow l, when government troops withdrew, they pushed westward. but the victories, as long as the rebels have pushed back, leaving curtis forces and the people they protect, fearing the worst. a theory and kids wasted no time and destroying remnants of a subs room. they are among the many syrian minorities to have suffered under his link. the regime of we've been waiting for 13 years and today is our day it's the cubs incurred the stones day. and god willing it will be full of joy and happiness . this is, nick could make up about 10 percent of serious population along with sizable minorities in iran, iraq, and took a set protest have long baffled for an independent state, making them
11:08 am
a target for various governments. during 30 is civil war. the kurdish lead democratic forces fought to create a c, me or thomas area in the countries north, east us troops, faxed them, and slicing the rise of i use in the region. and in controlling the oil rich areas . but neighboring turkey has long fought against the syrian kids. it has back renewed attacks and recent days bearing kurdish, that partizan within its own board is key, has also supported the h t. s. rebels who toppled the aside regime and will now help shape serious future . many kids fluid low just hours of to the rebels took control of the city while they've tried to assure minorities and knows at risk. not everyone
11:09 am
is convinced given that's how the lotion of the minorities are worried about how they will be treated to the equal in the heart that those who have taken over well now have come out with positive slogans and statements. if you need to go to see how it goes, but in practice, everyone is hopeful and expect the cause of the union. people are waiting to see if these positive statements will materialize in practice so that they have the full of the aside. regime could present many risks to syrian kids, but as the country begins to rebuild, they may also be opportunities for the long held goal of self governance. earlier i asked, middle east analysts spend to show what curtis civilians experience and the days after the fall of the regime. but i think mainly it was joy because they have separate under the asset machine and that's 300000 syrian codes. never got the
11:10 am
searing nationality because it was also not allowed for them to have their rights to celebrate their fees. so to have their language is cetera. it was a repressive regime against them. services, right. i think the feeling of joy was fair because they knew now on your ears, i could start for them and possibly autonomy. however, they also were a friend that this might not last that there might be incursion of error interest h to s and others. and so i think it was mixed meetings. so now i think what matters for them is to see how can they get into a strong negotiating position and stay really a valid part of furniture go stations for this. the international backing up, the kurds would be quite crucial, and this is mainly materializing in the presence of us american troops. john formerly said that he would withdraw all us soldiers. this would be a game changer and we don't know what happens if then in january he takes over
11:11 am
whether this is still valid or whether he might change cost. me. where do you see at this point in time? curtis aspirations for self governance and autonomy as well when very relevant point is the control of resources because in a south 0, the areas that they controlled or in which they were present, served uh, also for the which provision, for example, it's very fertile areas, which was a that is lacking in many other areas of syria. so they felt that they always had to gift towards damascus and they would be kept in a and b 9 situation. i think now that you really want to make sure that they can control their resources, that they are recognized as an entity that has a self governance, which they established over the past years. and i think they might be, i, it's something similar to rock rid, this is already kind of the arrangement that rocky curds have with the rest of the
11:12 am
state. that was middle east, expert ben, to show up from the highly spread the foundation. here in germany. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. a fellow standing health officials say more than 2 dozen people have been killed and the latest round of is really airstrikes and gaza. medics said one of the buildings hit with sheltering a large number of displaced people in hon. eunice, a funeral was held for 7 stadiums. workers said or guarding a truck. us president elect donald trump has reported the inviting chinese president changing ping to attend his inauguration ceremony. washington, next month, invitation was sent out in early november, soon after trump won the presidential election on those on clear at this point whether the chinese president has accepted the number of the invitation by getting in the city, you must really, as government says it plans to force tech times to pay for news content. officials say they will tax digital platforms like google and facebook's parents company
11:13 am
mehta, if they don't share revenue with local media outlets. the government says the move is aimed at supporting quality journalists. in south korea opposition lawmakers have submitted a new motion to impeach president young. so you all over his shock decision to declare martial law. last week, this as the police again, rate of the presidential compound and soul, where they see several boxes of material and connection with an investigation into use actions. security guards locked in attempt on wednesday to get into his office . the president, for his part is vowing to quote our fights move to the end. as efforts to remove him from office intensify. the chair of the president's governing party now says he supports i'm teaching hebrew muscle. he's more of what the south room president had to say. to you about care or how we're on a constitutional decision and active for governance, vice president coaching and sorta is the only option of good there on the an active
11:14 am
rebellion as a president of the declaration of emergency, a martial law has an active governance to dislike executive clement, ego and diplomatic. right? so i'm not subject to legal judgments. young, punchy hanging journalist from young catchment isn't sole. and i asked him about he used to find the address. yeah. and he basically went back into full technology, sounded very detailed, and he sounded even very confident and he said, people's tied to the end. i think that was the most important message because it indicates that he has no intention whatsoever to resign lee. but that he really wants to stay impala and he is a very blatantly defendant, this decision to impose my mazda law. he said that the opposition, they are anti state forces, that they would paralyze activities of the state. and that he had to protect the
11:15 am
constitutional order of freedom. so he basically repeated the stance that he's at a already use when he impulse the muscle. so i would say he really went on in and um yeah, basically the text uh, the position. he also has the key was not really taking the national election commission and there was no a policy or anything like that. prosecutors have, again trying to rate the president's office as part of their investigation. what's going on there? of the yeah, actually there was some confusion in the confusion, so i'm the presidential compound boss, right. it today again, but i cannot use office itself but only the office of the joint chief of stop that the so the military office, which is also located within the presidential compound and then they actually agreed to cooperate with the rate and with a police. however, yesterday, when the police went to the presidential office itself and tried to enter the
11:16 am
building and tried to get the documents, there was a very limited corporation. they could not get into the office, but they were only handed a limited amount of documents. so they was really very disappointing and also outraged a lot of a south koreans because a a wondering why the police cannot. yeah. and forced air. right. that was beside it before the legislators are going to attempt to impeach the president again, we're could this crisis be headed of the yes, the public pressure against you this growing by the day. i mean, just and now i'm, when i'm talking, they are just a couple of 100 meters away from me. um, several demonstrations by labor unions, by the opposition party. they all as a month. uh, president in june to be in peach. and actually the next attempt to both the boat and impeachment motion, i think it has higher chances of being successful because you need 200 volts. they
11:17 am
are in total of $300.00 seats in the parliament. so you need 2 sorts of them to vote for it. 192 seats are in the power up all the opposition parties. and then you have already several ruling pocky lawmakers who was who promised that they would also vote and pay off the book. and even the pocket save of the hooting khaki itself said that he this time supports the impeachment motion that he wants a president dean. so if you wanted to get out of paula as soon as possible, journalists, bobby, and test button. sol, thanks so much. nearly 3 years into russia's full scale invasion experts and you crane has become the most mind country in the world. they are an estimate of $2000000.00 landlines contaminating 40 percent of the country's territory. unexploded ordnance is another problem even near the capital t as the w's. rebecca renters reports. it's painstaking and dangerous
11:18 am
move in 2 years off, the russian soldiers were forced out of keep the mind is a still working to clear unexploded ordnance from areas on the cities outskirts number 50, their husband ticket, that it's not only civilians who are at risk, but also the economy, how to familiar and they had many areas of far as the dangerous because of mines all the off them off the fighting dollars if you 3 are boy of with e. so those, that's the end of this. it's the economy hard if it's because how hector, as of land cannot believe fund the ocean, you know, over open expense from the halo trust. the world's biggest mind clearance organization is to make. there are many millions of explosive items and you can soil, including molding to many and land mines light by russia since the full scale invasion . the scale of this problem is immense. it's not just here in kids,
11:19 am
but right across the country, there are hundreds of sites like these. removing all the landlines and unexploded ordnance will take years. even though decades to bolster capabilities, the halo trust has been taking on war veterans with extensive battlefield experience. veterans like it was fun. yeah. so if there's a south k reminds for the military until he stepped on one himself with a couple of orders or believe we'd captured an enemy position and were ordered to clear rate of explosives and hazardous items. while we were securing the area, we came under artillery fire and had to seek cover. unfortunately, i stepped on a mine and was injured and you know what the most that to put on. and it's jack of hopes that when he recovered, he could go back to his battalion. but the challenges posed by his prosthesis made the rig is of the military to difficult. and he was the mobilized co,
11:20 am
approximately. the halo trust gives me the chance to keep on working for my country that's really important and contribute they do using the knowledge of welfare, the vets analyze these high resolution drone images. they identify with a skilled eye and determine where the other side might have placed explosives, a little of expertise in flying drones and analyzing humans, range and bringing dates together. but we are sort of missing some domain knowledge about the, the local context and the battlefield. i'm hoping to the veterans will help us understand a little bit better. it's a win win. they tell me, given the industrial scale of landline and explosive ordinance laying in ukraine, the role of the role that is invaluable. naomi cons managers, the u. n. d, p is lined action project and ukraine and told me more about the extent of the problem. um, what we're seeing in your training is that there is about
11:21 am
a 138000 square kilometers of land that has been exposed to conflict and remains to be certified to identify where the actual contamination lies within that area. most of the contamination that we are finding is across conflict affected areas. so this includes um, like a cultural lands and forest and other than areas and, and underwater locations. it's concentrated largely in liberated territories alone, front lines. but there is also bain extensive use of scatter, pl. mine's in ukraine. delivery to leave it on via actually won't catch all projectiles or driving. so this means that the contamination is buried and it includes anti personnel mines in today for mines, cluster munitions and unexploded ordnance and vote for these types of mines. they can remain armed for hours or days if,
11:22 am
if they are on that data by an electrical source old i can potentially remain there for decades. if they haven't mechanical fuses. yeah, this course is a long time threats. exactly. they're expected to far outlast the conflict. how long you know, in your experience, does it take to make contaminated area safe again? well, it depends what the contamination is and how the parts is being used. as i said at the beginning, it's really important that the area that has been exposed to a conflict is certified. it is the 1st step doing non technical. so by going out and actually looking at it to identify where we have suspected hazardous areas, open fans, hazardous areas. you know, through this already, ukraine has been able to reduce all of the 35000 square kilometers of land and have pads got taken away from the contaminated area and pulled back to a productive used by the community. the reason why the surveys are important is
11:23 am
because when your decline, the deadline is the real humorist out to the field they need to be going with is the real contamination because it is a common race on excuse to essentially process what will be the long term consequences of the contamination. oh, i'm, well that's got a couple of main on on. sometimes this, i mean already were saying uh, communities displaced and, and it disrupts daily life civilians face constant risk of injury or death. and by the end of august 2024, that was 1286 victims of mines and an explosive remnants of war and ukraine. the projections by the government save this number of potentially rising to 9000 by 2030. if this isn't addressed, and also we understand the impact of the global food security. you know, ukraine is in the top 10 wave produces in the world before the war about 90
11:24 am
percent of ukraine's weight exports bank to countries in africa and asia. so it has not only implications here, but also abroad. those may only cons uh from the u. n. d p. 's mine action project . thanks so much for your time. thank you. soccer's world's governing body fi. fi has confirmed that saudi arabia will host the 2034 world cup fee for us as hosting the men's soccer tournament. will encourage positive social change in the kingdom, including more rights for women and rights groups points to saudi arabia or recruit on human rights. it's also feared the construction of stadiums and transport networks, or the event will put migrant workers lives at risk. and finally, some cutting edge tech that's been pulled out to pasture. we've heard or is in australia are hard for us to find workers to look after some 30000000 cattle.
