to avoid a wider conflict in the region. we will take all necessary actions to defend the united states, our interests and our people. and we will respond when we choose, where we choose, and how we choose. earlier i asked our north america correspondent would any us attack may take place? we don t know us attack may take place? - don t know exactly when this military action will be lost, it apparently depends on the weather and on intelligence, but we understand that these strikes will take place over a number of days and today will include a range of targets. they include iranian personnel and facilities in iraq and syria. now, it is those two countries from where these militant groups, the iran backed militant groups have been operating and it is those groups that washington has accused of being responsible for the deadly drone attack on the us base injordan on sunday. that was when as you said, three us service members were killed, dozens more were injured and ever sinc
yeah, you can hear. this is the beat with ari melber, where one week at official voting of 2024, launch of these presidential primaries. candidates already barnstorming iowa this weekend. you re seeing just some of what happened on your screen. and for many reasons, these first few primary states at the pivotal and possibly last test of the republican party deciding whether to bring its trump passed into the future. nikki haley, trying to emerge as the one alternative to trump, arguing voters can get mugshot without trump chaos. by just picking her. i agree with a lot of his policies. he was really good at breaking things. he just wasn t good at fixing them. and now, we look at the fact, rightly or wrongly, chaos follows him. chaos follows him. and that may sound like a pretty team contrast that she s drawing, but trump views haley now as his main possible threat. an establishment hack of sorts. trump s pivot toaley after months of unrelenting attacks against desantis
hello, i m sally bundock. the un has renewed calls for both sides in sudan to fully abide by a three day ceasefire and to allow access to humanitarian workers. but renewed fighting is threatening the 72 hour truce. violence broke out on the western outskirts omdurman, a city across the nile from the capital, khartoum. but much of central khartoum remains calm, and thousands of sudanese and foreign nationals are still trying to get out of the country. as they flee, they re making treacherous journeys. residents are struggling to get clean water and other vital supplies, and warplanes are still flying overheard. tens of thousands of sudanese are trying to reach neighbouring chad, egypt and south sudan. and those left behind say they fear the world is abandoning them. meanwhile, britons are being told to go to an airbase about 20 miles outside of the capital khartoum from where they re being flown to safety in cyprus. thousands of other people have left on other flights or by ro
us and eu officials are meeting today to discuss energy cooperation. the focus? according to the us, joint efforts to blunt russia s attempts to weaponize energy, bolstering energy supplies for the coming winters. this comes as eu member states consider extending restrictions, or even outright banning, russian natural gas imports. the bloc has also imposed a $60 a barrel cap on purchases of russian crude oil, something that the us has supported. joining me now is olga khakova, deputy director for european energy security at the atlantic council s global energy center. on the committee that looked into their trade relationships. has russia been able to weather the international sanctions issued against its energy exports? i think overall, the price caps have been a win, a lot of analysts actually were hesitant to implement or support but anything and the overall goal was achieved. key pressure on energy supplies on the market while minimising how much money russia is making

While up the east coast and actual trial of an actual former president was Going Forward and the republic did not crumble.
