11:02 am
the national weather service has predicted that the winds are going to pick up and get worse. we're going to have the most significant wind event between 10 pm this evening, and 5 am tomorrow morning. so it's incumbent that everybody have a wildfire action plan for their home to brush fire broke house on tuesday morning in the coastal pacific palisades neighborhoods. strong dry winds used it spread into other areas in the foothills in north east los angeles. some residents did the best to try to extinguish the flames. tens of thousands flat that hey, adams, causing traffic jams on the narrow roads. some escaped just in time. i have never seen the fires with this close to the cars. people left their cars and
11:03 am
policies drive burning up the hillside, palm trees, everything's going and the wind and the firemen are great, but property damage is property, damage losing lives, dogs, animals, horses, a lot of horses in the neighborhood. so. yeah, so that's, that's really the blazes raged across thousands of acres in a matter of hours of $2.00 to $5.00 fi to is being called in to help the colleagues on the ground who are now facing a special on several fronts. jason confidently, i'm this a journalist with nbc and i hauled radio and los angeles and he gave us an update on these files right now. the palisades fire just north of los angeles is about $3000.00 acres. but when guys are about to about a 100 miles an hour,
11:04 am
our caring embers further out. so tomorrow morning when were able to get a better look at the fire. uh, through some of the brakes we firefighting the aircraft, is they have some helicopters that they have, and serve in the area. i mean, i'm guessing we're going to be in the 10 to maybe $15000.00 acre range. it's really bad, and overnight embers are flying all over the place. dozens of structures has been laws, multi $1000000.00 homes have been burned to the ground. and now in southern california, there's actually 2 more fires that started. and this stretching resources buried in by just got off the phone with the la county firefighters. and they told me it's a war zone out there. they're doing their best they can. but the winds are so strong, even when they're standing next to a house that's burning and they're trying to spray it with water at full force,
11:05 am
the winds are just pushing the water around, so they have to get so close to the fire, which is making a firefighting, extremely dangerous. jason, can you put it into prospectors perspective, the severity of these fires? is this unusual even for california, as it is, we haven't seen wind gusts of a 100 miles an hour in decades. you tie that with the fact that there hasn't been any significant rain here in southern california in very many years. so now you've got extremely dry and conditions. very hot winds coming in from the, the top of the hills and making their way down into the basin. and this is what's creating a fire storm, a wind storm, if you will. and i mean right now, even in my, my area, which i'm about 20 miles south of the palisades fire, and you can hear it outside. and it sounds like it's raining,
11:06 am
but it's just the way that's blowing at such high speed. it's, it's really an odd time here in southern california. now it runs $30000.00 residents on the evacuation orders the holiday being helped. so there's a back, you ation centers that are being open in places in the safe places around the pacific palisades. but i'll tell you the fire crews i've had to say, you gotta listen to us. when we tell you it's time to go, it's time to go. and we're starting to hear stories of people who stayed in their home too late. and may have gotten hurt. there's other people that have had to, they were driving down the very narrow roads outside of the pacific palisades and had the dips, their car, they receive running down the street carrying a suitcase of their belongings. just trying to get the safely. so what fire fire and what firefighters are doing now is they're using bulldozers to clear the road
11:07 am
so people can get out and get the safe briefly what the cost of what the full cost . so for the next 2 days. well that's the tough part. it looks like it's going to be a red flag warning, so wind gusts of over 50 miles an hour, for at least the next 3 days. and possibly over night, wind goes up over an 80 to a 100 miles an hour. it's not good. and again, no rain in the foreseeable future. the gentlest eyes, some type of doing here, they're talking to us from los angeles. thank you very much. after show it's freezing conditions and difficult to write a complicating rescue efforts into best buy. and as quake has killed at least 126 people, chinese officials say hundreds of people have been trapped. tuesdays, the quaker, and the trim is that followed reduced thousands of homes to revel. this is the moment the quake struck just 75 kilometers from mount everest.
11:08 am
the world's highest mountain struggles the border between china. nicole, the quite kid, close to the, but is the city of sic got say, in the chinese autonomous region of tibet. the rescue is what quickly on the scene as china, as president g, mobilize them all out effort trim is also rattled the net police capital cut man, do 400 kilometers from the epi center and cause i was sleeping when it happened. what the back was shaking. you know, i felt my child was moving the bed, but then the windows tottered, moving a 9 stood. it was an earthquake about it. i took my child and went outside. i'm still in shock. the cost of what you, the freezing temperatures added to the misery for the injured in those left homeless as thousands of troops and firefighters was sent in to helps use a decent, we will strengthen seismic monitoring and early warning. we will spend no effort to
11:09 am
search for anyone trapped, provide medical care for the injured, for, for a sense, relief and provide for the basic needs of residents. so gotcha. so you mentioned who saw how strong the area or is vulnerable to size, make activity exp, but say there's no way to predict when a quick might strike. this disaster is not on the same scale as the of quake which killed nearly 9000 people in the pool in 2015. but it has coolest expensive damage and one of 2 bits. earliest cities. both are sama is a journalist in cub bundle. b has a more on the ongoing search and rescue efforts a way to search and just the boats are under way. so just curious way more relies to nothing to do. yeah. searcy up to the disaster. there were a week or 2 more to with up. i could hear you,
11:10 am
but i have heard is that the more than 20000 people on the low to means they are if you look at a problem effect in areas and internet because us use union the but i'll talk to the pony is being offered through the victims and lots of circuit by the arctics aren't being tier and what do we use to understand is that the so it is not easy to get any of the information in china. this is the information i have. no so far now the quake hit in a very remote region is that complicates and rescue and relief efforts. yeah, it seems so because the uh took off at the uh the, the more and most the, the mountainous reasons which means it's always difficult, has 30 south to the communities that was done las to barbara shaw. my income funded here in germany. political parties are launching the contains for the
11:11 am
election on february 23rd. the snap boat was cooled off to the collapse of the governing coalition. the opposition conservatives, the city you see su, maintaining a lead in the polls. fruitless masses, the chancellor candidates incumbent and sound. so that would have shots as positive as center lift. social democrats are behind and continued to lose ground. both men want to be in charge of the next government, and they're making their difference is quite clear. as one of these 2 men set to become germany's next tom slept. all i've sold is trying to defend his job against the police mats, the man whose party currently leads in the poles. the only thing they have in common. they cannot stand each other. as you are embarrassing gemini, the way you acted your these queens with puts and that's it, says freddy match likes to talk. rubbish well done. it's not the 1st time because
11:12 am
the vine boys i feel for hate losing to match would likely end on us sold his political career. and along with it, germany's resistance to supplying ukraine. we'd watch it once most from brandon towers, cruise missiles, just one week after salts headed to keys for the mats, made the same trip, and the sold ukraine's presidency. lensky, you're going, you must do everything to enable ukraine to make use of its right to defend itself . without any limitations, the stones full of souls condemns as an unnecessary provocation of lesser need, always play russian roulette with germany. security. the bustle is also about many a thing economy. while salts plans to take on new debt for investment politic mats wants to stimulate growth through tax breaks, less bureaucracy. when matt sees the need for a migration you ton including turning people away at the border. so since this,
11:13 am
his government has already implemented strict on migration rules and points to folding numbers. the 2 top contenders for top, select class and personality, and on e, key issues of this. the next in next month selections will fundamentally decide which direction europe's largest economy will take. it's earlier i spoke to the w search east visit the time is here that to snow fall the actually pull and she's in the tom of zailynn and bavaria and with frivolous maps is joining a conference office city use the value, insist upon the c s. u, she explained to me the most important issue for math going into this election campaign as well. the most important issue for him at this moment. his time is not making any mistakes. he has made gas in the past, and he wants to see the economy at his business plan for germany, his stimulation, klein, and a tax breaks as something that is why the debate is at the same time. migration is
11:14 am
an issue, particularly the bavarian says the see if you policy who is the host here in bavaria wants to talk about and wants to make clear that a conservative lead policies turn around. and that's what they're actually having a countdown clock here for as well. counting down those days to the election saying that will be a turnaround in policy across the board. but that must include a tougher line on migration, a phrase we've had many times before. and in the specific areas that would also mean potentially stripping dual citizens to also have government, but also another citizenship of the german citizenship if they are criminal offenders. here in germany, that's a very, very small group. but we have seen migration being debated again. so again, in the context of national security of the a for a national cross into that versus markets just before christmas. and although he is
11:15 am
seen as someone was psychologically unstable, but it's a very heated moments here and migration. once again, it seemed very much in connection with security that was to try and sort of shows for a moment. according to the polls of social democrats are not performing well. the way behind how does scholes intend to change that a by insisting that he will turn around the poles as he and that is true did last time in those last elections. but it's a huge difference that he doesn't want to talk about. is that back then? he was the face of changed despite the fact that he was going to macros. deputies hans the in the previous coalition. this time his face, his name stands for this spectacular failure of a 3 way to a lesson. and that is a pill bottles that he is very much feeling right now. and it just 6 weeks ahead of the elections. he's insisting he can turn this around his so he's
11:16 am
a democrat policy, had the choice between him is pretty much, it was the law spots, according to popularity of politicians. and the mine who's in 1st sports, he's the current defense and the symbol was to solely use what was the stories and says that he was not interested in the 2 job leaving, needing or sold in poll position. and if he doesn't perform a, what is close to a political miracle here, getting his policy from below double digits around 16 percent now or facing the conservative around 30 percent. then his political career pretty last finished here in 70. that's what he's applicant. now both parties, they sent a ride, christian democrats and the social democrats, ourselves who bought you've events unfolding in australia right now. we're far right potty is now leading. the coalition told that this happened in germany. this old answer is no. because no matter how strong the fall ride
11:17 am
a if the policy becomes in the upcoming elections, the other policies refuse to work with them. and this is something it described as a file. will it also, previous to see them existed in austria. it couldn't happen right now. but many politicians are pointing to the next selections of these 2029. what if the, if the continues will talk to becomes stronger and it's would become increasingly difficult not to corporate or top with that. so, and this is the very same thomas that germany faces on the much larger scale that is unfolding in neighboring ulcer behind me. right now. you don't see physicals that mission electives know that. thank you for this analysis. the us has accused saddam's are as f melisha of genocide saying it has systematically mode it. and right to members of certain ethnic groups in the, for the body and administration as imposed sanctions on, on our as
11:18 am
a freedom of how much harm done dog looks, saying he bears responsibility for the actions of his fights. tens of thousands have been killed in saddam since the war between the countries ami and the artist f broke out almost 2 years ago. that state control. so look at this now with, with talk to him, ali is a legal advisor at the role bottom. burke center for human rights and he joins us from come come product in uganda. now what difference does this make and saddam, that the us us physically at the hours of committing genocide? i thank you for the opportunity and i think uh, this determination is long overdue. uh, it was already in edwards when it went before we made the nation based on clear and convincing evidence that there was a support for us this. and it's a life malicious. i've engaged in um, you know, i trust that
11:19 am
a crimes specifically in genocide, we also identified for an access fueling the trust citizens with that. and so unfortunately, more often than not, the genocide determination will care when in a site is already complete. but i think um this, when it comes with uh you know, to measure it to you, it is a duty to prevent father genocide but also duty to punish this is based on their the genocide convention. and i think this is really what we, what is needed now. i think the 2nd part is it is a recognition to victims, grievances that people have done for people to. so then have been, you know, quiet for the last couple, you know, is about atrocities about genocide in particular. i think this is just
11:20 am
a commission to the suffering and grievances now frontier has been going on for close to 2 years. why did the buy that ministration only act now as many solely demonstration may have uh, you know, many considerations and one other things is that they have been trying to promote peace and, and dad negotiations to end the company. but i think one of the things that we've been demonstrating all along that the water in parties, you know, like genuine interest in father and face. and i think that there is a dad, you know, we have been demonstrating that there is a need for, you know, adopting sort of uh, you know, punitive measures such as imposing targeting sanctions such as these determinations . and i think what is needed about right now is that the, the international community must stimulate this so that the maximize the impact of
11:21 am
such as determination. and i think what is, what do you mean? and again, i repeat is the provision and punishing perpetrators plus implicit access, including the states and brought in supporting yard sale. so what role does the united arab emirates apply? you know this. so, as we establish elliot, you know, in an adverb 2024 of the united arab emirates, as the most responsible actor a in is, you know, in, in the accomplishments with ad, right. they uh, they continue to support the support for us is our numerous reporting, these from credible sources establishing that with it refutable evidence that the united advisors supporting dollars have. and i think that's part of the reason why they put the produce in effort doing it to and for focus primarily on for an access,
11:22 am
particularly on the way. and therefore uh, you know, that you a, is the most responsible actor in this, uh, this uh, conflict. and it must be held to account. and i think this is also another reason why this determination is so significant in a sense that it's uh, you know, yeah, signals, you know, in the states such as the way for what they do more testing by the health of all one and back sense of the human rights with us from come paula today. thank you very much for that analysis. thank you very much. that's have a look at a few more news headlines. south korea's impeach president june, so he all faces in new attempts to arrest him on insurrection charges. a top investigator says he will break the security barriers at the presidential compact. the presidential security service stopped authorities from taking you into custody
