[00:00:00] uh, as you can see, there should be cars bumper to bumper, but the movement [00:00:04] is very weak. uh, this road ties between [00:00:07] the north and the center [00:00:09] of the occupied west bank with Jerusalem and the south, so the fact that they [00:00:13] are blocking the movement here means that they are affecting tens [00:00:17] of thousands of people who move through here every day for work, for [00:00:20] healthcare, for other, their own businesses. [00:00:23] in addition to that, the Israeli military has been demolishing palestinian [00:00:27] businesses, they've been ' carrying [00:00:31] out demolitions of Palestinian car washes, clothes, [00:00:35] stores and other businesses here in [00:00:38] around the Colandia refugee camp and near the Collandia military [00:00:42] checkpoint. And the last note is very important to make, [00:00:46] there [00:00:47] are no, I mean the Israeli military is talking about this being a military [00:00:51] of operation, but there are no armed elements inside these camps that are [00:00:55] organized [00:00:55] in any way that would put up a front or to [00:00:58] in resist Israel's military. [00:00:59] cursion. [00:01:05] of [00:01:14] Ukraine says it's hit two oil refineries in Russia as it [00:01:18] continues to target the country's energy infrastructure. Russian [00:01:22] a confirmed [00:01:23] a refinery [00:01:23] in the Yadoslav region was on fire after a Ukrainian drone [00:01:27] strike and said emergency crews were working to put. out the [00:01:30] blaze, the regional governor said the refineries storage tanks had been [00:01:34] struck by falling drone debri. he described it as the [00:01:38] biggest attack so far on Yaroslav, which had been targeted [00:01:42] by Ukraine in the past. well, [00:01:46] meanwhile, two people have been killed and five others wounded in a [00:01:49] Ukrainian drone attack on Russia's Brayansk region. it comes [00:01:53] after the Russian army said its air defense systems shot down [00:01:57] 605 Ukrainian drones over. tonight, falling Debry [00:02:01] from one [00:02:01] of the drones hit a logistics center belonging to Russian [00:02:05] a e-commerce giant Wild Berries. This is the latest attack [00:02:09] against this online retailer, which keive accuses of [00:02:13] aiding Russia's war effort. Dasha Chinishova [00:02:16] reports. For thousands of small [00:02:20] businesses, online shops are the center [00:02:22] of their entire operation, from warehousing and logistics to [00:02:25] deliveries. Maxim papov sells a wide range of goods through wildburies. [00:02:30] which is widely seen as Russia's answer to Amazon. He says drone [00:02:33] attacks have exposed how vulnerable small businesses can be when they [00:02:37] depend heavily a single logistics [00:02:39] of network, although he expects the company to [00:02:42] recover. We are lucky that we [00:02:46] stored only a small share of our goods at marketplace [00:02:49] warehouses. We know how to adapt, plus we don't have heavy [00:02:52] credit burden, that will help us lot. Those who had 80 to [00:02:56] 90% [00:02:57] of their goods destroyed and bought that inventory. [00:03:03] of For many businesses, even a brief disruption can create [00:03:06] serious cash flow problems with inventory trapped inside damaged [00:03:10] warehouses, sales stop while storage fees, supplier payments [00:03:14] and other operating costs continue to bill [00:03:16] up. Small and medium sized [00:03:20] businesses could suffer the most because their entire [00:03:23] business model depends on infantry turnover. [00:03:27] Many bought their goods using borrowed money. and if they can't [00:03:30] maintain the sales volumes they originally planned, they may [00:03:34] struggle to repay those loans. the impact extends [00:03:38] beyond sellaries. re-rooted shipments means thousands of independently [00:03:42] operated pickup points are seen fewer deliveries and lower customer [00:03:45] traffic, but there are now plans to build additional warehouses in neighboring [00:03:49] in Kazakhstan and Belarus [00:03:51] of and strengthen security to make supply chains more [00:03:54] resilient. this could affect the range of products [00:03:57] of available on the marketplaces and push. prices for some goods, but [00:04:01] it won't [00:04:02] of fundamentally change the platform economy. online marketplaces remain [00:04:06] Russia's dominant retail sales channel, and so [00:04:10] we're more likely to see [00:04:12] a redistribution of sales than a collapse [00:04:14] of the system. analys say Russia's well established trade links [00:04:18] with China could help replace many low cost imported goods, [00:04:22] limiting longer term disruption for consumers. recent drone [00:04:26] strikes come a time when companies are already facing high boring. cost [00:04:30] in higher taxes, so any prolong disruption could add further pressure [00:04:34] to one of Russia's fastest growing sectors. [00:04:38] that world, [00:04:39] moscow. well, in [00:04:42] Ukraine, three people have been killed in overnight strikes by Russia [00:04:46] on settlements in the northern sumi region. three more were killed [00:04:50] in strikes on the eastern city of bakila in the hard [00:04:54] region. it comes after barrage of Russian missiles and drones were launched [00:04:58] at Keet and the surrounding region. on Wednesday, killing at least [00:05:01] 17 people. [00:05:05] Well, soon after these attacks, Ukraine's president spoke with the NATO [00:05:09] calling for more support. Vladimir Zelensky has also... been hosting [00:05:13] the UK's defense secretary in Kive telling him that Moscow wants [00:05:17] to further escalate the conflict, we [00:05:20] think that we need the unanimity and we need strong support [00:05:24] from from your country and from all other European [00:05:27] France, that it this is a signal also that Russia [00:05:31] gives us and to the world that they don't want to stop, [00:05:35] and I think that they want to continue and [00:05:38] I mean increase escalation, yes using them. [00:05:42] missiles and we have our estimation, i want to share with [00:05:46] you, we have estimation that they will have, they will increase the [00:05:49] production of such ballistic [00:05:52] miss. but he was, Joel [00:05:55] Flynn has more from Kiev. overnight saw [00:05:59] few casualties in places, including in [00:06:03] the the eastern part the the frontline, but also in the north insumi as well, russian glide bombs there [00:06:07] hitting sumi city, injuring number of people and also resulting [00:06:10] a couple of deaths, it is, normal evening, normal night for [00:06:14] Ukraine, but one that is increasingly concerning of course, in the context the [00:06:18] ballistic missiles and the lack of air defenses that Ukraine currently has, [00:06:21] Vladimir Zelinski there talking to uh the UK defense minister where's streating, [00:06:25] we know that he has been having conversations yesterday too with Mark Rutter [00:06:29] about how Ukraine can accelerate access to [00:06:33] European partners, interceptors, things that are actually able to [00:06:36] shoot down these ballistic missiles because currently Ukraine basically [00:06:40] has nothing, the key element of... this is the US Patriot system, [00:06:44] there are conversations between Kiev and Washington DC [00:06:48] over both access to patriot systems to patriot interceptor missiles [00:06:51] themselves, but also about Ukraine's ability to manufacture patriots [00:06:55] in the future. The key fact in all of this is the lead [00:06:59] time that it would take to to do so. Even with Patriot systems getting [00:07:03] green lit today, we would still be looking at the middle of next year before those will be able to come on [00:07:07] stream and possibly even later before they're actually able to be integrated [00:07:10] into Ukrainian defense. in the meantime, Ukraine [00:07:14] is working incredibly hard to try and boost its own [00:07:17] defensive um domestic manufacturing [00:07:20] capabilities. Defense firms here that we've been talking to over the last couple of days and that we are [00:07:24] talking to uh in [00:07:26] the the coming days as well are are really trying to move forward quickly [00:07:29] tandem with their European partners, but there are significant road [00:07:33] blocks, chief among them is how they pay for it, and those are [00:07:37] conversations too that both NATO and Vladimir Zelinski will trying to [00:07:40] have in European capitals. [00:07:49] At least 100 people died in the mass storming the Spanish [00:07:52] North African enclave of filtat last week, that's according to the city's [00:07:56] mayor, tens of thousands of migrants cross the land border from [00:08:00] Morocco last Thursday and Friday, between 3 and 5,00 are [00:08:04] still in filter with local authorities struggling to [00:08:07] cope. [00:08:12] turn to normal because between 300 and 500 the people who [00:08:16] entered during July the 30th and 31st still remain in [00:08:20] the city because the reception centers for adults and minors are [00:08:24] overwhelmed and have reached a state of collapse, meaning the influx has [00:08:27] developed into humanitarian emergency of enormous [00:08:30] proportions. do understand [00:08:34] the concerns and the need also to respond [00:08:38] maybe from some member states, but internal border checks should [00:08:42] definitely to be um, I would say the last resort [00:08:45] measures where only where necessary and and where it's [00:08:49] proportionate. Well, in the Democratic Republic of [00:08:53] Congo, the number of confirmed Ebola cases has now risen to nearly [00:08:57] 4,000 with just over 1800 deaths, the [00:09:00] outbreak is concentrated in the eastern part the country where health [00:09:04] officials say cuts to aid services are hampering their efforts to contain [00:09:08] it. It's been described as the fastest spreading ebola epidemic. [00:09:12] on record, a visit to kingsha, the head the world health [00:09:16] organization said it was very worrying [00:09:18] situation. i think one thing [00:09:22] that's different about [00:09:25] this outbreak is the [00:09:29] unprecedented speed, [00:09:32] um, it's moving really, really fast, and [00:09:36] i can't think it from you, my feelings, maybe [00:09:40] expressing my feelings properly would be better. I'm deeply, deeply [00:09:44] concerned by how the situation is on the [00:09:47] ground, Thailand is hosting [00:09:51] Myanmar's hunter chief turn president on [00:09:55] his first official visit, he's seeking to end Myanmar's [00:09:58] diplomatic isolation since he overthrew the elected government in [00:10:02] 2021 in that coup. Christina Shimic [00:10:06] reports. Since swapping his [00:10:09] military uniform for civilian clothing. [00:10:17] has been a diplomatic drive to pull his price state [00:10:21] back to the diplomacy table now 5ive years after. He led [00:10:25] a coup against the elected government in Myanmar, [00:10:28] neighboring Thailand has rolled out the red carpet for [00:10:32] men on land's first official state [00:10:35] tour. Myanmar is on the path of democracy and [00:10:39] heading towards a better future. As new government, we are currently working on [00:10:43] prioritizing stability, peace and national [00:10:45] reconciliation. In 2021, then [00:10:49] general Min on Land launched a military coup [00:10:52] overthrowing the democratic leader. On Sansuchi, it [00:10:56] triggered a civil war that has killed at least [00:11:00] 100,000 people from both sides. Since [00:11:04] then, the Association of Southeast Asian nations banned [00:11:08] Myanmar's leaders from attending summits. In [00:11:12] April this year though, Min on Land was named president [00:11:15] after staged elections. Democracy watchdogs called it [00:11:19] a sham. Thailand has led the efforts to [00:11:23] normalize tires between me and and [00:11:26] the other 11 asean nations. political [00:11:30] analysts say if Myanmar was invited back to ASEAN, it could [00:11:33] also open pathway to western countries that [00:11:37] oppose Minlan's military [00:11:40] regime. A peaceful and stable Myanmar is [00:11:44] not only in Thailand's interest as close [00:11:47] neighbor, it is essential to ASEAN's [00:11:51] unity and regional stability. [00:11:55] also visited India, China and ASEAN Member [00:11:58] Layos and last month he met with Malaysia's prime [00:12:02] minister and promised to accept the return of [00:12:05] 300,00 Rohinga refugees from [00:12:08] Bangladesh. The timeline remains unclear. [00:12:12] He also marked his 100th day as president on [00:12:16] Monday and addressed his administration accusing [00:12:19] Azian's five-point consensus peace plan of [00:12:23] discrimination and said they would pursue their own [00:12:26] solution to the country's conflict issue [00:12:29] of Myanmar is clear test, the five [00:12:33] point consensus remains ASEAN's [00:12:37] guiding framework. In Bangkok, Myanmar and Thailand [00:12:41] signed labor cooperation memorandum of understanding. [00:12:45] Min on land is also expected a business forum and [00:12:49] government dinner, but human rights campaigners say [00:12:52] Bangkok shouldn't be warmly welcoming men. on LAN who has [00:12:56] been sanctioned by several western nations for crimes [00:13:00] against humanity.
