0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:21.200
<v Speaker 2>which is sexual abuse of a student while he was

<v Speaker 2>was sentenced to an additional three years in prison in

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty three over the abuse of a student. Dawson

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:39.559
<v Speaker 2>has not denied the sexual abuse, park claims it did

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.280
<v Speaker 2>not happen over the time span that the student alleges.

0:00:42.840 --> 0:00:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Dawson's appeal of his murder sentence failed in June of

0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:48.159
<v Speaker 2>this year. He will remain in prison until he is

0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 2>in his nineties.

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 1>Human rights group Amnesty International has accused the Israeli government

0:00:55.440 --> 0:00:59.680
<v Speaker 1>of perpetrating genocide on Palestinians in Gaza. In a new

0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:03.000
<v Speaker 1>report bought, the organization alleges that since Hummas's attack on

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:06.919
<v Speaker 1>Israel on the seventh of October last year, Israeli authorities

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 1>have intentionally quote inflicted conditions of life calculated to bring

0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:15.320
<v Speaker 1>about the physical destruction of the Palestinian people, as defined

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 1>by the United Nations Genocide Convention. This includes widespread and

0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:23.560
<v Speaker 1>ongoing displacements and the alleged destruction of quote homes and

0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>life sustaining infrastructure, and direct attacks on civilians. In a

0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 1>statement to media, Israel's Foreign ministry denied the reports and

0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:34.399
<v Speaker 1>said that it was entirely false and based on lies.

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Francis Prime Minister Michelle Barnier has resigned after three months

0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 2>in the job after a majority of MPs in the

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:46.240
<v Speaker 2>country's parliament passed a vote of no confidence in his

0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.560
<v Speaker 2>leadership and his government. It comes after Barnier used a

0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 2>special power to push a budget bill through parliament. Parties

0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 2>across the political spectrum opposed Barnier's move with a no

0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 2>confidence vote proposed by left wing coalition New Popular Front

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 2>HUNT and supported by far right party National Rally. France

<v Speaker 2>last went to a parliamentary election in July, where no

0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:10.800
<v Speaker 2>party won a majority. The country cannot go to another

0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:12.839
<v Speaker 2>parliamentary election until next year.

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:18.320
<v Speaker 1>And today's good news, nearly seven hundred and fifty new

0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:21.840
<v Speaker 1>species have been discovered in Central Africa. Over the last decades.

0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:24.919
<v Speaker 1>That's according to a new report from the World Wildlife Fund.

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:29.240

<v Speaker 1>all been discovered in the Congo Basin, which is a

0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:35.919
<v Speaker 1>biodiversity hotspot. The organization has called for greater protections for

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:39.079
<v Speaker 1>the region and for authorities to work with indigenous communities

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:39.960
