1
00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: News when you want it. With Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: Brian Curtis in Hong Kong. Israeli force has stepped up

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 1: attacks in Gaza. They traded fire with Hesblah across the

4
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: Lebanese border and conducted an air strike in Syria. Israeli

5
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: Prime Minister Benumin Netanyahu says is one thing his nation

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: will not do.

7
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 2: Israel will not agree to a cessation of hoscilities with

8
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: Ramas after the horrific attacks of October seventh. Calls for

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 2: cease fire are calls for Israel to surrender to Haramas,

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 2: to surrender to terrorism, to surrender to barbarism. That will

11
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 2: not happen.

12
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: Netta Yaho also rejected calls that he resign over security lapses.

13
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: These would be lapses that led up to and were

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: during the October seventh Thamas attacks. He also defended his

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: decision to escalate the Israeli offensive with the ground push

16
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: in du Gazo aush. Republicans are taking their own path

17
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: on aid to is Bloomberg's Ed Baxter has the story.

18
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 3: The Republicans introducing a fourteen point three billion dollar aid plan.

19
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 3: The package separates Israel aid from a broader Biden emergency

20
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 3: funding request that include Ukraine and Taiwan AID. We'll have

21
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 3: to see what the Speaker will do. Now it pays

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 3: for the Israel AID by cutting the Biden Inflation Reduction Act,

23
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 3: calling for a fourteen point three billion dollar reduction in

24
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 3: funding for the IRS. This complicates the process to get

25
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 3: anything done on this, as Democrats in the Senate and

26
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 3: the President himself feel very strongly about that funding. Aed Baxter,

27
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Radio.

28
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: Apple has rolled out a new iMac laptops and the

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: third generation of its in house Mac processor line. The

30
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: announcement was part of what's dubbed a scary fast product unveiling.

31
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: Apple says the new chip lineup relies on advanced three

32
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: nanometers manufacturing technology and more efficiently handles graphics processing. To

33
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: get the story from Bloomberg's Tom Giles, what they're.

34
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 4: Trying to show is that the new line of chips

35
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 4: that they've just unveiled, the M three, is a kind

36
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 4: of chips that's faster, more powerful, and at the same

37
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 4: time more energy efficient. So what they're trying to do

38
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 4: is they're using this new ship to breathe life into

39
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 4: their Mac product line.

40
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: That's Bloomberg's Tom Giles. The new MacBook Pro models, also

41
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: unveiled at the event, will run Apple's new processors. A

42
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 1: government report shows the Departments of Defense and Justice were

43
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: among the federal agencies targeted in a global cyber attack.

44
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Ari Natter has more on the report from the

45
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: US Office of Personnel Management.

46
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 5: Over six hundred thousand employees at the Department of Justice

47
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 5: and the Department of Defense were affected by this hack.

48
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 5: It looks like the hackers got a trove of government

49
00:02:54,840 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 5: email addresses, also links to these federal surveys that the

50
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 5: Office of Personal Management puts that out, which is kind

51
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 5: of like a satisfaction survey of sorts for Threadero workers.

52
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 5: Going to report. They say it doesn't look like any

53
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 5: of those surveys were accessed, but still it's a little

54
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 5: alarming that they're able to get the hands on those.

55
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: As Bloomberg's are not er. The Russian hacking group CLOP

56
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: targeted numerous government agencies by exposing a flaw in the

57
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: vulnerability in the Movement file transfer program. The report says

58
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: the compromised data was quote generally of low sensitivity and

59
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: not classified. China's factory activity fell back into contraction in October.

60
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: An expansion of the services sector unexpectedly eased as well.

61
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: The reading suggests the economy remains fragile and is in

62
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: need of support. The official PMI felt to forty nine

63
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: point five. That compared to an estimate of fifty point two.

64
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: That's news when you wanted with Bloomberg News. Now, I'm

65
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: Brian Curtis. This is Bloomberg four
