Maria corina machado in venezuela, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you very much, stephen. It s a pleasure to be with you again. It s great to talk to you. It s two months now since venezuelans voted in the presidential election. Just tell me what has happened to you since that vote. Well, our victory by a landslide was something the regime didn t expect. As well as the fact that in less than 2a hours, we were able to collect, digitalise and put on a robust web page over 83% of the tally sheets, the official tally sheets that actually demonstrated our victory. It was a 70 over 30 victory, but if it had been a freer election, believe me, we would have won at least by 90 10. So this was a huge defeat for the regime. Maduro is naked in front of the whole world and his followers. So his decision was to get surrounded and entrenched around the top brass of the military and in fact, unleash terror. This has reached to thousands of venezuelans that have been detained, and everybody that was direct
Must be avoided. Died aged 88. Must be avoided. He said he plans to speak the operation directed by israel s defence minister. Translation: we have no i interest in expanding the war. We have no interest in looking for additionalfronts. But if somebody attacks israel, as the houthis have recently done, with missiles and throughout the war with cruise missiles and drones, anyone who carries out such an attack, we will settle the account with them, and we know how to do it. Israel is not holding back, its air force releasing footage as they set off for the raid. And earlier today, it says it shot down another drone launched from yemen. For the past year, the yemeni houthis have been trying to influence the conflict in the middle east. This is their commandos seizing a british owned ship in the red sea last november. They have long range missiles, are supported by iran and are fiercely opposed to israel. Speaking yesterday, the houthis military spokesperson yahya saree said they wouldn t
Trey: good evening thank you for joining us i m trey gowdy, sunday night in america, parts of the south are devastated, there has been death and millions there without power people waiting in line for gas, water and food and power may take weeks to restore, i have witnessed the devastation firsthand trees board long before i was are now on top of houses, in south carolina it looks like a ghost town we were nowhere near the eye of the storm, even in the dark of night without power you can still see light, not only our neighbors taking care of neighbors but strangers are taking care of strangers, a glimpse of beauty in the wake of devastation, there is unity and survival. I wonder if we can ever have that unity without the devastation. If you have the chance to help those in need with the basics of life, please do so in the special word of thanks to those working aroundtheclock to get life back to some semblance of normalcy for a region that is reeling right now.

Now looking like a ghost town. Thousands have left, many more are still trying to leave. Driving through dahieh this morning, we saw cars packed with mattresses and bags. Some people seemed to be leaving on foot. Israeli Air Strikes destroyed this building yesterday. The smell of the explosives was still hanging in the air and we could hear the sound of drones flying overhead. Israel says it will continue to target hezbollah, even after killing the groups leader, Hassan Nasrallah. Dahieh is no longer safe. There is a tense and anxious wait in lebanon following the killing of Hassan Nasrallah. The wait for a possible response from hezbollah. For 30 years, Hassan Nasrallah led A Group often described as a state within a state. Hezbollah has been weakened but it has not been defeated. There is a trail of destruction in dahieh and across the country. A Ground Invasion of Southern Lebanon feels more imminent. But here, the impact on those caught up by the violence.
