the question is, is this enough to get everyone on board in dubai? live now to our correspondent in dubai, carl nasman. it has been a long night, hasn't it? tell us the latest. it has been a long night for many, including journalists, but specifically delegates poring over this text, trying to come up with a new version that they think that all the parties here, some 200 nations could agree upon. this is that document, and this was supposed to be released yesterday afternoon, it finally came out around seven o'clock in the morning here in dubai, it is still 21 pages long so there are still people going over this line by line, word by word to see what is in it and to see if some of that language is stronger than in the last version. joining me now for some analysis on this, a bbc climate reporter. you have been looking over this text, bought over the last document and you have been taking a look at some of the differences. what are you seeing now in this updated version?

it is absolutely always a negative that the | always a negative that the companies in the fossil fuel producers have so much power at these international negotiations on an issue that is both so important to the globe, and yet also important to their own prophets, and so their ability to change language, to water down and which has been a problem for every one of the cops going back 28 years now. we are seeing a shift away from the power of those fossil fuel interests, partly because of the realisation that the global climate crisis is so severe and getting worse. that is why the language now says we are going to transition away from fossil fuels is a big improvement, the first—ever mention of that. we would have liked to have seen some of us phasing out fossil fuels as the language it, but that may have just been a bridge too far. in that may have 'ust been a bridge too far._ that may have 'ust been a bridge too far. in terms of those countries _ bridge too far. in terms of those countries who - bridge too far. in terms of those countries who are l bridge too far. in terms of - those countries who are saying part of the issue for us you are telling us to transition away from fossil fuels, that is away from fossil fuels, that is a huge income source for us, we just can't afford to do this stop that is part of the negotiation process for countries, the smaller developing nations who rely on the black gold and the money it brings in. {iii the black gold and the money it brines in. .., , the black gold and the money it brinesin. , , brings in. of course it is the bi aer brings in. of course it is the bigger and _ brings in. of course it is the bigger and richer _ brings in. of course it is the bigger and richer countries l bigger and richer countries that really rely on fossil fuels but there are provisions for trying to help all the developing countries with the economic challenges of getting off fossil fuels, but in building the renewable energy, the noncarbon energy that is going to be rid wired to replace them. another key bit of language in this draft agreement calls on tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030 and doubling energy efficiency by 2030 stop those are enormous steps forward, critical steps to getting off fossil fuels and that is i think another positive in the language. ultimately, it will require individual countries to act. a global agreement isn't enough. it will depend on what each country does.— enough. it will depend on what each country does. peter, thank ou. each country does. peter, thank yom good _ each country does. peter, thank yom good to — each country does. peter, thank you. good to get _ each country does. peter, thank you. good to get your _ each country does. peter, thank you. good to get your take - each country does. peter, thank you. good to get your take on . you. good to get your take on that. the clock is ticking. we expect news probably in the next hour as to whether people are on board or not. we will unpack this further. what does the business community think about this? that is in 20 minutes in this programme and we will be back to cop28 for more. in new york, the united nations general assembly has voted overwhelmingly for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in gaza. applause the palestinian envoy to the un called the vote an "historic" moment. israel said a ceasefire would only benefit hamas to the detriment of gazans. though it's non—binding, analysts say it acts as a powerful measure of international opinion. 23 countries including the uk abstained. israel and the united states are two ofjust ten countries that voted against the ceasefire. president biden earlier said that israel was losing international support because of what he called its indiscriminate bombing of gaza. live now to dan arbell from the center for israeli studies at the american university. dan is former senior israeli diplomat and represented the israeli government at the united nations 45th general assembly. thank you for being on the programme. let me get your reaction then to the outcome of this void. in reaction then to the outcome of this void. , ., ., this void. in terms of a declaration, _ this void. in terms of a declaration, it - this void. in terms of a declaration, it is - this void. in terms of a - declaration, it is important because you have more than 150 countries declaring that they are calling for a ceasefire immediately. operationally it does not impact the situation on the ground. israel's intention is to continue the fighting until it achieves its goals. declaratory importance but not really of operational importance at this point. bud importance at this point. and we understand _ importance at this point. and we understand that _ importance at this point. and we understand that prime minister netanyahu has made it very clear that he will continue with the military operations that are well under way and becoming more intense by the day, but what about president biden's pressure on benjamin netanyahu to change tack?
