Firefighters are searching for survivors and the Prime Minister says officials will, quote, do everything they can to help those affected by the sad incident. Salma abdelaziz is following developments here in london. What more are we learning from authorities and eyewitness accounts over what unfolded . This is very much still ongoing. But what we do know is last night there was this huge Wedding Celebration for this young couple. Eyewitnesses say 1,000 people gathered in this one venue, this one huge hall. Again according to eyewitness accounts that ive heard, in a moment where the couple were slow dancing, spark lers and fireworks were going off inside the hall and that caught the ceiling on fire that was decorated with highly Flammable Materials and Xt Tthe Exterior The Building was covered in material that was highly inflammable and illegal. It essentially made it a continuti tind tinderbox. And according to iraq civil defense, in a matter of moments the whole building was on fire, parts of it collapsed. And people trapped behind these portions unable to escape. That is why you are hearing from the Health Ministry that some of those who died, died due to suffocation, unable to get out of that building. We do have very preliminary reports here i think on the death toll and injuries. At least 100 killed, at least 150 people wounded. They are being spread out across multiple hospitals. This is a massive tragedy. No single hospital can take all of the victims. Iraqs Prime Minister is on the way to the region. Emergency services have been activated. But again, just a massive tragedy and one that some guests will feel could have been avoided if the Building Code was followed, if this flammable material wasnt coating the exterior of this building. The area is no stranger for tragedy and you know that firsthand because you visited. Yes, this is an area that in 2014 was taken over by isis. Of course it has a predominantly christian population. As you can imagine that forced many of those families to flee. The area was slightly definite invest absolutely devastated. And when we went into the area, you just saw the devastation again. So this is very much a place that has tried to find life again in the last few years since the isis period and a place that is also rebuilding. So there will be a question mark over corruption. Allegations of corruption have long plagued iraqi officials. Many of these guests will ask why is illegal Building Material used on this wedding hall venue that led to the deaths of at least 100 people. Salma abdelaziz, thank you so much. Another legal loss for donald trump. A new york judge has found the former u. S. President and his adult sons liable for fraud after providing false Financial Statements for roug ss for roug. They are accused of inflating values by up to 270 million. The judge also canceled the Trump OrganizationBusiness Certification in the state. The a. G. Is also trying to stop them from doing business in new york for five years. The judge said a discrepancy of this order of magnitude by Real Estate Developer sizing up his own living space of decades can only be considered fraud. Here is what one cnn legal analyst had to say about the decision. This was a Summary Judgment motion which was in effect the judge saying there is no reasonable question of fact even viewing the facts of this case in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party. So lets just assess it from trumps perspective, that is what the judge is doing in the motion, saying even under those circumstances, there is no question of fact, it is not out of the question that this gets appealed, gets affirmed exactly as you know, in the form that it was released here. Cakara scannell has more details. Reporter this is a huge loss for donald trump and his family and his family business. The judge finding that he engaged in fraud for a decade by inflating the value of some of his Marquee Properties on Financial Statements that were provided in a number of business transactions. And the judge saying that Donald Trumps explanation for how he came up with the values for some of his assets, he called it a fantasy world, not the real world. Specifically he singled out trumps apartment at trump tower here in manhattan. Trump inflated the value of that property including just the mere Square Footage by three times. Something that he did acknowledge and the judge saying that that massive discrepancy could only mean fraud. Now, he also said that he was ordering certificates of business to operate in New York State be canceled and that he would put in Place A Receiver to dissolve the business. Exactly what that will look like remains unclear at this point. There is a lot of confusion even among the parties about how that will play out, but it could significantly reshape what the Trump Organization looks like and whether it has a footprint in new york city. His son eric trump who essentially leads the company on a day to day basis said that both the judge and the Attorney General are trying to destroy their company. Trumps attorney in this action said todays outrageous decision is completely disconnected from the facts and governing law. While the full impact of the decision remains unclear, what is clear is that President Trump and his trump willappealate rem. They think the judge has not implemented correctly what claims would be covered. So they are hoping that the Appellate Court will narrow the scope of what the judge can look at saying that certain claims fell outside the statute of limitations. Were expecting a ruling on that this week. So right now the trial in limbo, but currently scheduled to start on monday. Donald trump posted his own response to the judges ruling online, accusing the judge of, doing the bidding of the new y York Attorney general. And trump is calling on help from the highest courts in new york and the federal level for help. Michael cohen his former Attorney Says the ruling was effective because it hit donald trump where it hurt the most, his wallet. If you really want to get to donald, the way to do it is through his bank book, not by saying hes a narcicisstic so he is i dsociopath, he is not 63d he is not 215 pounds. You go after the wallet. Once you start hitting the bank book, that is what really gets to him. One trumps most yoit spoken critic is a former staffer and shes warning that another Trump Presidency would be a danger to democracy. Cassidy hutchinson worked as an aide to thumprumps chief of s. And she spoke to jake tapper about the threat that trump is now posing. For years we have not held donald trump accountable to the things that he says. When he strokes those vitriol comments like general milley, we need to take a them seriously. People have been holding him accountable for the past year, but obviously not accountable enough because were in a position right now where it is looking more likely than not that he could be the republican nominee. And he has also been indicted four times. To me it is sad that were in this place where were looking at somebody who has executed this horrible assault on our democracy and we are continuing to give this person a platform. That is not what with we should stand for as americans. Donald trump is the most grave threat that we will face to our democracy in our lifetime. And potentially in american history. When he says things like he wants to use the Department Of Justice to go after his enemies and like he did on truth social the other day that he wants to curtail Freedom Of The Press for certain channels and that sort of thing, you take him literally. You think he actually means it and in a second term he would do it that. I think donald trump in a second term would not have guard rails. I think we saw that at the end of the first term with how things played out after he lost the election. He violated our constitution in multiple ways. It is completely fine to wage or to file lawsuits, but what is not okay is when you threaten and assault the constitution and our institutions of government. I would not put it past donald trump, jake, to put those institutions of government in a worse position than they were in in the first term. Cassidy hutchinson speaking there to jake tapper.
