While a fire that erupted in sydneys northern suburbs late in the afternoon immediately cut off exit routes for a number of residents one local fire chief saying conditions are so bad that when a fire takes hold were not able to stop and. Protect life. Protect property. And sure everybody is a safe as possible. These are the principles guiding austerities honest trail yes east coast bracing themselves for the worst bushfires in the nations history more than 50 blazes are burning across the state of New South Wales authorities are expecting conditions to get even worse. And out of almost doing all of developing and one of those which was really means to follow the drilling in the direction all that was already in there was about it and thats what you know if you havent already done so now is the site just on to the fires are expected to spread quickly due to high temperatures and strong winds all stories are warning of catastrophic fire danger for to city of sydney to. About 6000000 people are affected by the fires people involved or both communities have been urged to stay away from bushland and to flee their homes before the fires escalate weve had the history for 27 use never had this before we live in the Blue Mountains where it was forced to but weve never had to destroy our public all this is unbelievable ive seen the fries and the. Jump rugs and thats just i mean thats even more than catastrophic because watching them in this you know you can do and always find a reason everybody just worked. 3 people have been confirmed dead and at least 150 properties have been lost so far authorities have to clear a 7 day state of emergency in the area. And was today said to be the most dangerous so far lets go straight to sydney and journalist Roger Maynards there standing by for us good morning to you roger what more can you tell us. Well its a very serious and fast moving situation where the authorities have listed a little new Emergency Fund warnings are in New South Wales yourself was the courses were to people treat you with the weekend and there were nearly 200 homes destroyed in the flames now this afternoon or early this morning fire chiefs warned the worst is still to come as fierce winds threaten to blow fires in multiple directions leaving. Fighters almost powerless to control the Rural Fire Service commissioner change that sims for cars that conditions would only deteriorate as the strong winds continued or became more consistent at least 3 properties have been destroyed in New South Wales in the past few hours tare New South Wales mid north coast thats north of sydney meanwhile a huge army of Emergency Personnel remain on standby with some 20000 Firefighters Police and soldiers as world ready to move in if necessary ok for sally hope as a result of what i want to jump in there and and talk about these multiple directions the fires could be taking this area has 6000000 people at the affected area sydney of course a huge city its under threat can you tell us more you started talking about the precautions being taken whats being done for the rural areas and could this affect sydney. Well thats the big question at the moment so far it appears to be mine to still call it so to speak but now. There was a bush on the outskirts of sydney a report of an hour or 2 ago that was quickly extinguished as you said city is a big city its got 5000000 People Living there and a lot of people are very very concerned about the well the possibility of fires moving in from the Blue Mountains where theres a lot of a lot of forest also from the north in the celt where there are vast areas of National Park and if those fires all of those parts of the city will be out of line in areas were ignited then the danger is that those fires could be blown into urban areas and as many as 100000 homes at risk ok were seeing images here of the smoke already covering sydney and these fires of course already have a political dimension with the Australian Government coming in for some Harsh Criticism for its policies on Climate Change lets listen to a mare of one town in New South Wales. Not a political thing its a scientific fact that we are going through Climate Change and of course its not relevant at the moment when papers houses a burning and weve lost lives but they are overall thing is we are sorry draw in this country we havent had rain for 4 years in some places. All the dams and creeks and rivers are dry and we need to look at what were going to do about that in the future and to deny Climate Change is to me a very. Ill informed and educated way of looking at things roger how much criticism is the government facing right now that has failed to address the conditions that are contributing to these catastrophic fires. Would certainly created a war of words doing a politicians of all political work colors the governments been accused of ignoring Climate Change one green senator said in Parliament Earlier today but some politicians were a little more than assonance because of the way they supported the coal industry in recent years the Prime Minister Scott Morrison refuses to pin the crisis directly on Climate Change and there are some on the other side who claim that greenlit council this might also be contributing to the problem by refusing to a low Hazard Reduction program to take place during the winter months thereby clearing their situation which might be ignited during the summer but others say its not its really not the time to make political points. Mythos coleman its government minister here said it wasnt appropriate to bring politics into the debate when people were losing their lives and thats a good point and the police are reiterated by the New South Wales premier Gladys Berejiklian who said she was quite willing to discuss the issue of Climate Change not of the moment when people were dying and many people were also a losing their homes and the emphasis is on evacuation right now as well Roger Maynard thanks so much for that from sydney. Well a former bolivian president a former all of us is on his way to mexico where hes been given asylum are also resigned sunday in this protest against led Election Fraud as resignations left a power vacuum in bolivia where unrest is continuing on the streets of la paz the police and the army are threatening a crackdown. Ever morale is heading to mexico into exile the Mexican Foreign minister car found it in a tweet he assured the ousted believin leader your life and integrity are safe. While many believe ians accused morale is of growing increasingly autocratic in his 14 year rule across latin america hes still often viewed as a champion of the poor who brought Economic Growth to one of the regions most impoverished countries like these supporters who gathered outside the believe an embassy in mexico city they claim rallies resignation was prompted by a coup. Will morales was a democratically elected president but well follow him are measures that are brutal exploitation measures against workers and farmers. Morale is ousting has left a power vacuum the deputy head of the senate says she is willing to take over as interim president until new elections are held to help the country get through the crisis but the decision is up to the believe in congress. This is just to provide some certainty for the country. For an end to the vandalism. So that there are no more deaths women who are raped. I dont think bolivians deserve this its urgent that there is some certainty for the people. So if civil organizations agree i will take up the task. The really even after morales departure tensions remain high on the streets of the capital. Police and the military are steeling themselves for more violence. Now to some of the other stories making the news and staying in the region Security Forces in chile a fired water cannon to Disperse Protesters that country has seen weeks of often violent antigovernment unrest so his government unveiled plans on sunday to draft a new constitution but the opposition says the proposals do not go far enough. On kongs chief executive kerry has condemned prodemocracy activists as tensions in the city run high activists back on the streets following some of the worst violence and 5 months there are new reports of Police Firing tear gas. In Northern Syria at least 6 people are reported dead more than 20 wounded after bombs exploded in the kurdish majority city commission. Theres been no immediate claim of responsibility but kurdish leaders have warned the socalled Islamic States sleeper cells pose a threat in the region. Well violence has been escalating on the israel gaza border that following the killing of a Top Commander of the Palestinian Militant Group Islamic Jihad israel says a top was behind a series of rocket attacks on its territory Israeli Forces killed him in a rare targeted strike on his home in the gaza strip calls to knowltons have responded by firing rockets at israeli cities including the commercial capital of tel aviv authorities of instructed citizens across southern and Central Israel to remain indoors. For the very latest lets bring in years tanya kramer following this for us in jerusalem good morning to you donna whats happening in the border area right now. Well since the Early Morning hours since this targeted strike on the Islamic Jihad leader there has been by the minute red sirens a learn so called direct alarms. Asking people to run for bomb shelters and thats not just happening and the sounds of it is about that also further up north towards the center and also in tel of the youth in the coastal cities of ashkelon and start as well and this is why we are seeing those very unprecedented measures being put in by the home front command in israel asking to schools to be closed today not just in the southern areas around the gaza strip but also in the televisa and the center area of the country and also for nonessential businesses to be closed usually dont see those measures so early on in such an operation it was a planned operation thats well of course the air defense. Does have been put in place but the Israeli Army Says they expect to. You know there are some coming in for the coming hours and days at least ok no telling what led to this Israeli Military operation which has been described as rare wife wise of being described as rare against Islamic Jihad inside gaza. But it has set a target to this military leader if its not make it hard. Hes responsible as they say for the Northern Gaza Strip but also in gaza and then he was responsible for the latest rocket high over the past year but also other terror activities theyre talking more here the army about a Surgical Strike rather than a targeted killing probably saying that it dont want to possibly go back to the policy of targeted killing that weve seen here in the past decade or so which we havent seen and the past years however now Islamic Jihad has vote already of revenge has said this crossed all red lines and that is or should be prepared for the worst ok prepared for the worst Palestinian Militant Groups now launching rocket attacks as far as tel aviv what kind of israeli response can we expect to that. Well this was a planned operation so the israeli army is expecting that the escalation will at least last for i mean when the middle of it right now will last for probably several days now people in gaza told me they are reminded of the days in 2012 when a at that time hamas military wing leader was also killed in an targeted strike and then followed an 8 day war between hamas and israel between gaza and israel so i think it also depends how hamas who is in control of gaza will react to that. They already also put out a statement of course condemning this and how this will play out in the coming hours its still too early to say time as i said very much on this ongoing military operation where you are in jerusalem and israel thanks very much. In the u. S. The Supreme Court begins hearings today to consider whether president Trumps Administration illegally ended the socalled Dreamers Program and this program allowed undocumented migrants brought to the u. S. As children to live and work there legally a program was introduced under the obama administration. Georgetown university in washington d. C. These were. Studies and lives. She was born in mexico but was brought up in arizona. Is an undocumented migrant but as a doctor recipient shes been able to make great leaps towards a Better Future now i have a better chance of getting more scholarships or attending university and getting a job like i had never had a job until i got to college and they were when i got my 1st paycheck and i i was able to fill out that Social Security box and i was like this feels so weird and it feels good and also like i was able to get us that i. D. But its Little Things like that that make it easier and just driving itself in arizona you know that if you do get stopped by a cop they cant like the port you. Dr recipients have not been afraid to protest theyve been organizing demonstrations like this one in washington d. C. In defense of the program the president ordered an end to 2017 but several federal courts challenge the president s move the final decision lies with the Supreme Court to 700000 people who were brought to the u. S. His children have been allowed to renewable 2 year authorizations to live study and work in the country the future despite having lived most of their lives in the u. S. Looks uncertain. Now weve seen courts all across the country side with our people our movement saying that the decision to end the 1st place was wrong if this case goes in a direction in which the program is ended or wound down in some. Way the lives of not just immigrant youth in this country but their families their networks their communities are put in immediate danger there is a lot at stake with the Supreme Court. Back in georgetown is nervous about what the future holds but remains hopeful im kind of numb to the whole point of this whats going to happen to that i was appears thats going to happen to dreamers. And just let me know because at this point im kind of like i need to make a plan and if that plan is going to the u. S. I need to know. But i am in a way i hope i dont go heartbroken by the decision and like every time i do get a bad decision is just grief over it for a few time for a few days and then getting back up in fear you know alternatives thats been my whole life and i think it will continue to be my whole life. And other doctor recipients will have to want a decision from the Supreme Court is expected some time before next summer.
