4:02 pm
doesn't step down. all re, is still in puerto rico. unable to return home, a violence has surged in the past week since he left the country seeking international support. 80 is in a state of emergency. the international airport in for the prince remains closed, and most businesses have shut down. the neighboring dominican republic says that it is reinforcing its border extra troops have been deployed. the government says that it wouldn't allow haitian refugee camp on its territory. dominican authorities deported tens of thousands of patients last year or for more on this were joined by teresa boat, who's in does up on the border of haiti and the dominican republic. theresa, can you describe for us the scene, what i'm seeing behind you and everything that's happening at the border between these 2 countries, the well, that's correct. what you can see right behind me is the border between the dominican republic and the hate to this border has been completely closed for the
4:03 pm
past few days. however, we're seeing today that the security forces are allowing some patients to pass to the side of the border to get some supplies, medical supplies, food, among other things that you were mentioning. but this border has been closed, but also the airport in puerto prints is completely shutting down the air. the aerospace in haiti, mostly because tags have been attacking the air for the no control. the northern part of the airport i've been told. and that's definitely the complicated situation on the ground, because it's extremely difficult to evacuated. the united states has said that they would like to evacuate. american citizens were being told also that some us citizens have been allowed to leave the country. however, both stations that we've been seeing on the other side are not being allowed to come to the side of the border. what do you know about the the haitian prime minister ariel honory? he, we know earlier this week he tried to return to haiti. he wasn't able to do so what's happening with him now as well. what we do know is
4:04 pm
that he is in puerto rico. he was not allowed to land here in the dominican republic, and he's there apparently he's trying to make it back into haiti's. this is an extremely complicated situation. we're hearing reports of the united states is pushing for him to resign. and however, this has not been confirmed and away and we are no bad guy and the doors do me. shakespeare also known as barbecue. he said that if he's allowed to return to a hate to right now, that would be a fit of award in the contra, which complicates the situation even further. there's been lots of talks between us officials, apparently a members of the opposition in hey pete's wants to set up a transition of government that would lead to election. however, the situation on the wrong, the security situation on the ground, extremely complicated. what's important to note however, is that for many, many patients at prime minister areas and we is not suddenly just embed peter,
4:05 pm
he was not elected. he was designated by a former presses on an invoice with an estimate of back in 2021. and that's why many do not want him to return outside from whatever the guns are saying right now, because they say that prime minister are really good and we have been unable to resolve this ongoing situation that has been called the escalade kind. of course, a situation on the ground with people half of the population struggling for food and also struggling with the violence that they're seeing every day. so there's a political crisis on top of a security crisis. what more can you tell us about what's going on inside the country? and i appreciate, of course, that you haven't been able to make it across the border yet. but it sounds from the information that we're getting and from what you told us as well, it sounds like state authorities have almost collapsed. well, that's correct, cuz i mean, i was in, in haiti i last year and already guys controlled at least 80 sense of haiti's
4:06 pm
capitals would be seeing, you know, prime minister ariel and we are requesting international assistance. we've been seeing the united nations requesting internet processes. and now guys, you know, we have taken advantage that the prime minister area and we traveled to kenya. so request assistance for our police force in a way to help the police forces in the haitian capital. and he's now unable to return, so what we do know is that shooting our goal is going on. the thing is going on are some ways to torture. the capital right now is completely controlled by gains. there's tales. so if you don't already live for most patients is extremely complicated with half of the population struggling to find food and those who have been injured, struggling to find medical assistance, so forth. what we are hearing is that there's a desperate attempt to put in place what is known here as an international i moved to a national support mission to try to bring some type of stability to hey, did that this will lead to some type of election that will put
4:07 pm
a legitimate leader in place that will help solve the situation. the chaotic situation that we're hearing is happening right now. theresa bo, thank you very much for your reporting there. from the border between haiti and the dominican republic. that's the desktop on board or thank you teresa. the now it's a garza where israel's war has entered in 6 months and attempts to bring about a ceasefire. installed. a mouse says that is real 4th at all, attempts by mediators to reach an agreement. but it also says that negotiations will continue. $30800.00 palestinians have been killed since october the 7th, including more than $13000.00 children by collab for reports. as a woman's scream, pierced as the chaos of the sun lost most can jamalia, northern garza,
4:08 pm
following is rarely shown. rescue teams rushed to the side. several bodies are paid from under the rubble. some are like the doctors can do nothing for several children brought along confirming the parents with nice me the minutes is the center of the sound. the most good jamalia was directly targeted without warning. children were playing the the most because they normally do suddenly the most coast bombarding, killing people and into another's. this is the enemy's talking. children's dates comes in many forms in god's palestinians dying from bombardment and from starvation. the desperation evidence is they scoop up what's the aid they can find amongst the debt to the model. we are collecting this food from the prompt. we are unable to get to kind of solve dns or anything which supplies is not reaching us
4:09 pm
without picking the bins. from the ground, i have no idea how we can run my thought makes them delinquent this stuff to where we are. on the other one, the old food programs his wide spread hung a is a nice history, but he's real is blocking the aid convoys and several countries. a dropping food into gaza cannot meet the needs on the ground. we have food enough to feed 2200000 people and just outside guys. we just need to make sure that we are able to negotiate the access into the different parts of cars, north and the south to make sure that the trucks are able to get it to the people that they the air drops would never be able to replace the oh yeah, the she hugs their door to for the is likes this body and things. you're a piece of my heart. it's a broken one. like so many others in gaza. like level old is there
4:10 pm
a israel has return to the bodies of 47 palestinians killed in its war on gaza. the bodies were transferred via the care i'm. i will sell them crossing and they've been buried, as you can see here in a mass grave. they had been withheld by these really forces houses here as honey mountain road is with us over the phone from rossa honey. why has this real been keeping palestinian bodies and do we know whose bodies they have now returned? yes, sir. well, so far, according to a statement by that is really mandatory that those bodies were collected from the city of on unit or from the courtyard of nozzler hospital when the hospital is formed. but it is really military and it's been waiting for that. and from the surrounding area, there is a cemetery and some parts they close to the do not the hospital and palestinian and they're putting display as family. the brown, the northern part does it have been using the cemetery around davidson. he does not have to bury their loved ones, the relative, the family member being killed,
4:11 pm
a b as a result of the intense bombing campaign ends in hon unit city. and actually those are where transferred from sheep a hospital and did not. and the care necessary to save them at not that have to get a guide at a later date. and then we are buried in the hospital. there's really monitors that be collected these bodies because they were searching for bodies of and really hosted here in 5. not there have to go on it. there's going to be and so far the, those allegations are not supported by any sort of special evidence. as they said they did not identify any of the bodies to be as really or to be from a, the hop. again, this is not the 1st time we see an action like there, there are the past 2 times at least 8080 the bodies and they were returned by and bringing another 3. and the reason for that was under that allegation. now there are the reports by the medical staff and the health history that,
4:12 pm
that the rear reason for taking these bodies and holding in for so long as the is largely because there's really monetary is interested in what the mystery describing. the statement has the a d or again, this is very the process that been taken in place not only of this war, but it from passed around the violence and, and atrocities committed by the name of the withering java or to give by, with thank the scene of the graveyard was heart breaking out. some family members remaining family members were able to identify some of the bodies because their names were still attached to their rent. they're the author and where longitude, deacons. oh. and then beyond. and we're just mission. so those i, this is our last and people were unable to identify those bodies belong to as people gathered, trying desperately to look at the body of that included bodies of children and one
4:13 pm
in an elderly and young man at the 40. and then the $77.00 bought it are fully parts of, of the $450.00 voters collected by the tragedy that the tragedy. in fact, for the people here the they are unable to do, to be sure whether they are their loved ones. and the relatives are buried to travel robert or the end of induced the graveyard in the coming days. honey, my mood uh, reporting from rasa and the southern part of garza. thank you very much for that honey. the latest round of talks to reach a ceasefire dealing gaza has now ended and how much delegates have left egypt. there has been no breakthrough on a deal, but negotiations are expected to resume next week. honda so who does it occupied? east jerusalem monitoring this home, that what are you learning the? well, this latest round of talks in cairo has ended without any sort of conclusion. but
4:14 pm
we also know that these realities did not send their own delegation to this round of negotiations with mediators. and that's because they had demanded a list of names of captives who are still alive and got a request that have mass head refuse. now, there are still some non negotiable from both sides that need to be ironed out. how mazda saying they want not only comprehensive ceasefire, but an end to the war, something they say has not changed in their position. but these rarely say, even if there is a pause in the fight, and even if it is as long as 6 weeks, they are going to return to military activities. once that period is over. now how much has released the statement as well as confirmed to engines, the, the that they have left cairo and there will be, will be another round of talks sometime next week. but at this point is rarely as have said that these negotiations are stalled. right. honda, so who's importing from occupied east jerusalem? thank you very much for the latest on that in the spring and some very on this.
4:15 pm
you're joining us or of course with us in the studio here in doha. you are a professor of international affairs at guitar university. i wanted your thoughts on where we are because we seem to be in this great area where we have spent so much time in the last 2 months where there is no breakthrough on a deal. but there's also no breakdown of the negotiations while, you know, this is the, what do we expect from these and go sure, since we kind of truly expect that everything would be sorted out in a when meetings or end of it in a week, you know, if you look at the previous one a lot more than a week though, you know, i know that if you look at the previous was, you know, when they talk about sees by out and especially the exchange of hostages and prisoners. and you know, these way it is tend to drag negotiations for a really long time because they assume that with that uh they can, we can how much and have from us maybe uh, compromise or offer a lot of concession that they don't think of offering them right now, so i think this is, this is really negotiate is think the time is on their side. they, yes, nothing. you always think that, you know, the more hateful to medicine pressure,
4:16 pm
the more how much would be weaker and this, you want to transfer you this into negotiating, gab, shipping, cost of $0.04 a bag and chip on the table. so what do i, what are the, what is this? yeah, sorry, good. yeah, yeah, you've noticed this like in, in a previous phones. and if the app to this busy also put a ticket dimension to that, i don't think that it's nothing. he was genuinely interested in a ceasefire or even a choice because he wanted to drag just as much as he can. and he assumed that he can also win in trinity because there's a different dimension to what is taking place in cairo now with nothing else is always eyes on trinity under tennessee because he wanted to survive politically. the um, the earlier point that you made is something i wanted to ask you specifically about this is really argument that they've been making since day one of the war. the military pressure on her mazda is the best way for them to secure the release of, of captives and gaza. there's no evidence that this works absolutely right. mean
4:17 pm
that they have come up with this argument, but they failed to back it up with any um, any achievements. and the only time that they release prisoners which wouldn't go stations, i mean there's one incident which is really minor. one, a couple of, or 3 people that they manage to release about, you know, after 55 months into the war. and this thousands and thousands of people come from both sites. and then you still think that you kind of re people and i think this is a kind of i was thinking going to find them to of and if any help but listen, we have to take into account that nothing you i was using the, the hostages as an excuse to continue the war. yeah. you were say you were saying it might not actually be his priority isn't having to release the captive. so you're saying he stalling in other words using these negotiate ations to stall a deal. exactly. because he assumes that you know, by the given to appear and that he's interested in it too, is because they want to satisfy the americans. and but at the same time,
4:18 pm
as he's trying to undermine these tools and make it very difficult for how much even to offer any concessions, because how much we should not accept that suppose to release the hostages. and then nothing else, resumed oregon would with the intention to declare the intention to destroy this month and how much destroyed the government. and even some of his cabinet members took about to explore the policy is from guys. so how much has nothing to gain from this negotiation unless there's a comprehensive deal, which is probably why they're sticking to their, their guns on this? yeah, that's why i'm that. so who was saying there are red lines on both sides though, and for almost a red line is we want to permanency sponsor to assemble. all right, thank you so much for joining us in the studio. this out. the turning to some other world news now pakistan is expelling thousands of on documented afghans across the border. according to the united nations,
4:19 pm
pakistani authorities have forced more than 450000 to return home. and human rights watch organization says that more than 20000 have been directly deported. they include women, human rights, defenders, journalists, and former government employees who fled afghanistan after the taliban took over. in august 2021. they are at risk of persecution when they return pakistan estimates more than one point. 7000000 afghans have been living in the country without documents for years. most arrived in waves following the soviet invasion of afghanistan in 1979. the deadline to leave voluntarily has now passed, and those who have overstayed are facing monthly fines of a 100 us dollars. the sullivan surveyed reports from thought hom on the f can pakistan border. a lot for spending 40 years and focused on this on the law because back in nevada, son, he stayed there to set a business phase. and the 1st deadline for undocumented oftentimes to leave expired
4:20 pm

4:21 pm
many who are born in pockets on must lead. give just maybe the illusion or about all of the illegal migrants are being sent back. they have no rights to be part of any activities in pakistan. those citizens who i hear legally with us can civilian cods or refugee spaces, focused on the policy, is that they cannot take part in political activities in the country. many of guns believe the exposure is a pressure tactic to push the kind of bond government to kind of the people who pockets phone calls terrace. the bikes, signing the bundle, t t p carries out the tax inside pocket sun. while its leadership is based in have gone to sun, a spark hassan says the measures of the curved, illegal migrants. what a burden and some are involved in criminal activities. near the border with pockets on this to kind of meet the long comp is ready to deal with tens of thousands of new arrivals. those who arrive here are registered, provided with the temporary shelter, and given

4:23 pm
a surprise to you. there are many afghans currently in pakistan who fear persecution at the hands of the taliban expire with turn to their country. what do you say to them? so thank you very much for this opportunity. with regards to the refugee up upon refugee that box on for us who would like to send to government of pox done for hosting of funds that have been a lot of pain and difficulties over the last 40 years. and would like to express our appreciation and also for the warm hospitality shown by the people of pucks on to the outcomes we have resided there for many decades. and with regards to the return of the offline refugees. um, they uh, any insinuations that the government off of on this ton is looking for any form of retribution or persecution of its own citizens is fear mongering
4:24 pm
and certain narrative from a certain part of the world. and that has absolutely no foundation and bases well, well, okay, well, let me be clear, sir, i'm not insinuating, i am saying that there are people in pakistan because i know some who fear a potential return to afghanistan. the reason being that they have been persecuted and this has been documented, persecuted by the taliban and when they were in their country. so i'm not insinuating i am saying. and my question remains. what do you say to those people who are afraid of the taliban? well again, i don't know where you got your documentation from and how from help in the province in southern afghanistan, when i reported nearest and to again, i don't know where you get the confidence to say that the government of avalon hassan is looking to persecute its own citizens, especially
4:25 pm
a government that for an occupation to free its country and liberate its country. and its peoples from foreign influence is an informed powers that it is looking for any form of retribution or any form of persecution of its own citizens. if there is any documentations that you allegedly possess, the government off of one hassan is more than happy to look into it and hold people accountable for engaging in such behavior. sorry, sorry, your kind of side stepping my question. yes, i have reported on this in afghanistan on the ground and i know that there are people who fled the country because they had taliban knocking at their door because their cars were blown up and because they received threats from the taliban. this was pre 2021. and by the way, this is not just my reporting. this has been well documented by other rights groups as well. i am not saying that the taliban now intend to harm these people. i am
4:26 pm
asking you and giving you the opportunity to respond to this question into their affairs. and again, i'm going to repeat myself the government off on the line this time liberated its country to protect its citizens and give them the liberties that they deserve. we are in no shape way all form i have ever engaged in or looking to persecuting our own citizens. they have equal rights. every single offline has equal rights and has accountable uh to law. okay. and so that includes, for instance, i've got interpreters who worked with us forces that were fighting the taliban. that would include also judges, policemen in afghanistan, who also found themselves on the wrong side of the taliban. all those people you're saying can come back to afghanistan and be safe. is that correct? oh,
4:27 pm
we have maintained policy of general m. s t. we are muslims of humbler. and unlike certain powers that are killed and suffocated prisoners and containers of thousands of them, we declared a general amnesty. and we have shown that in our deeds that the journal and this to stands for anyone that collaborated with foreign powers. there are hundreds of thousands that are currently working shoulder to shoulder with the government off of line this town and government bodies. and there are millions of others of who are living peacefully and enjoying their lice. okay, and i was wondering, has there been coordination between your government and the pakistani authorities for essentially deporting tens of thousands of asked hands back to back to your country backed up against this. sadly,
4:28 pm
this affair was conducted uh one sided and there was no coordination. there was no warnings. there was no sense of the following practices, international practices, and it was a forced expulsion of funds, both documented and, and documented. we've shared our concerns with international bodies and also with the government of pucks on the uh we, we continue to see this as a concern and development and we hope as we move forward, that we can address the mutual concerns of each other and find a better pathway forward that uh, uh, safeguards the goodwill that the government off of the pucks on and the people have taxed on has shown towards the offline refugees for a force,

important, he's got to li, just not the agenda for the next 12 months, but essentially, for the next 5 years, he's got to tell the american people how he thinks he can make their lives better. now he will talk about the success is that he's had an office. the fact that inflation is done, that unemployment is dying, that we do the up the, the economy seems to be taking a lot. but the reality is, most people don't feel as if they're better off not with the new where under donald trump, and that's be played in almost every single pole that we see. so 205 and has got to lay out his agenda of how he's going to make things better for ordinary americans. one of the things he's going to talk about is the tax button. and again, he will repeat that anyone ending under $400000.00 a year will not be of any any more than tax under joe biden. but he is going to make corporations pay more money. he is going to go after the high honors who are not involved in tax avoidance,
4:40 pm
but certainly knew where the tax breaks are and could exploit them far better than ordinary people. it will talk about his success in driving down pharmaceutical prices, but ultimately people and what he's going to do to keep pushing along. and you'll also talk about what's happening in ukraine and the importance of us support. you will talk about israel and the importance of us support, but he's also likely to talk about getting more age into gaza as soon as possible. and then he will talk about the threat to democracy that he believes that donald trump presents. because of course, this is unusual for a president in an election year in february and march to know who he's going to face at the polls. and so he's going to hammer home the next election could be important. particularly if donald trump full was off with many of the things the sick. so it's a big night for joe biden, and of course he's got to avoid any stumbles because that would feed into the image
4:41 pm
that joe biden isn't quite the joe bite. and everyone used to remember ellen fisher reporting from the white house, thank you very much. in columbia, thousands of protesters have vented their anger against president gustavo petros, push for economic and social reforms. the presidents attempts to overall health care pension and labor laws are facing widespread opposition. alexander empty, se reports from colombia as capital, but without or the suite a p 3 out to become the rallying cry for those who express a deep discontent with the response back by the left. the government of gustavo pay through thousands took to the streets in the capital battalion across major cities, even the largest rallies since paid through a former rebel fight. during this youth took power 2 years ago, promising to fight public. do you mean the quality they'd be div over holding health care, pensions,
4:42 pm
and labor laws put them in the come to the risk for the middle part of the to do it all. and i'm here for the future of my children for the use because they will not have one otherwise because i'm afraid to lose my health services. yes, we need to fix some things, but not destroy the system that we have to prove test. there's also march the gain, stay through his attempt at reaching piece deals with remaining on groups in the country, which they say we can, the military, some flu is the rails flag in support of its war and gaza, which pits are open. we criticize the protest. there's also believe that the return of a former parent military commander side of authority, mancuso is a political move up target their leader, former president. i don't even would. he was accused of having links to men cause group. does he don't know what that is? clearly what is happening, that's why they went looking for mancuso in prison and offering him benefits to attack others. the president and his political party,
4:43 pm
a full of resentment and hatred. what can you expect from the person there was a gave the left side to the approved test as it took to the streets and wednesday, william general whites are older. and richard and the average colombian representatives of a portion of the country that has long been in power and is supposed to be getting it soon. if they want to grow, they need to diversify the number of parts that protest against the federal government. and they need to draw out a stronger reaction from the administration. having said that, you know, i think the opposition still relies on very polarizing figures, such as i'm about to leave with a list to as, as their main sort of standard bears. and that could bring out a huge weak weakness about them. and this was a major success for opposition park days in columbia. it shows that their base is motivated than willing to come out and protest against policies they believe could hurt the country. and for many here, this is also the 1st step of
4:44 pm
a campaign to retake power in 2 years time. i listened that i did. i just see that both the railing, the airport workers in germany, a walking off the job and a new round of strikes. employees are demanding a pay rise to be able to manage the rising cost of living. hundreds of thousands of passengers and facing disruption to train stations and reports across the country. airports in frankfort, that's germany's busiest and hamburg or cancelling departure flights, stomach in his life for us from berlin. dominic, you're at a, a b main if i'm not mistaken. berlin train station, which looks very empty of the. yeah, this is spelling helped on hope. the central station fans, the platform that i'm sending with the 2 platforms where i am there on trains and what few people are all who caught the escalate has suddenly realized, oh no trains. what are we going to do? and that's the scenario is being played out in many stations,
4:45 pm
up and down the country. there are some trains coming through this functions, but where they would normally be schools, dozens of trains every hour or perhaps 9 or 10 a skeleton service. that sort of principle applies also in so far as apple. it's a concern to frank, for example, we know about also hamburg west, no departures going and the real serious amount of as it will disturbance to passengers potential plans and that sort of thing. once it's all about when it's all about pay and conditions in a general sense, pay most unions demanding a pay rise specifically and so far as the trains are concerned, that union demanding schultz the working hours. so in effect, a de facto pay rise because they want to work less for the same money. the consistent refrain from management is not to allow that management saying, well, you've been trained driver's situation. well, yes, you can work less, but then you have to be through, we paid less. and so that's the central theme. yes,
4:46 pm
the interesting thing is that this is not happening in isolation. the reality here is this social markets economy as germany is why unions and management normally it's like a conceptual approach to pay rise and working conditions while they're not doing that right now. but is, as it were, a winter of discontent that has been unfolding with loads of different unions from different sectors, full advertising, some will pay and not receiving its dominant came speaking at a decidedly mt train station, not a training site. there's dominic, thank you very much. they are reporting from berlin, the finish time for all your sports news. now it's not. our motions joined us in the studio, sauna. thank you very much. is there a while? a and you have coaches a have put themselves in a strong position in the 5th test against england. cool. the yeah. the start with the will spend a bag of himself a 5 wicket hole as india dismissed the tories for just $218.00. run, it also impressed it with the back at sunset, the trail england by just

4:48 pm
the only problem i have is that the team needs to perform better. the tendency of hold as much as the city completed the comfortable victory over copenhagen to advance of the last 8 of the goals for manual accounting and to hand on fridays and strikes just before half time from airline column for them complete 31 victory at the it's a has and when 6 to on aggregate, not just the city manager of pep squad deal, i was expecting a tough challenge in the next round. but just this week by munich around the grades and investigation. so so i know that, but we are there for 7 times in a row. hope consistency. i had the feeling when we arrive, arrive from a club, lay bustling by munich with the demanding is always the winning being there and i failed to clap, clap. no, the players didn't feel it, didn't fade, we could go through the open cloth, present contention to any european trophy and his final season. this live

actual that marine life is used to a certain temperature range, and these temperatures are shooting up going to to much higher levels than we expected. i mean, it's a, there's only in your line in your cycles, but we know that a global warming is pushing these temperatures up. but i think even so, even though we've been projecting this woman for decades now, the rate of only out of the last couple of years as cool as good as i've got a little bit anthropogenic climate change. if you look at a temperature series over the last 50 to a 100 years, you can see is progressive warming. it jumps above that they're real nino year and dips below for low nino, but superimposed on those short term cycles is a very clear warming trend. and we know that that warming is due to after per genic emissions of carbon dioxide. so the burning of fossil fuels and a little bit of warming from deforestation. so yeah, it's definitely a human footprint in columbus system. i'm not warming at the surface is potentially
