Weve lost matches throughout the season. But our goal is to have a game where we are better than dortmund. Were into the quarterfinals of the madrid 0pen, Andrey Rublev saw off carlos alcaraz. Losing streak. The russian rublev headed into the tournament on a four match losing streak. He has had a rich vein of form, beating alcaraz.

Shes also into. Red bull have confirmed their design chief adrian newey will leave the team in early 2025. Newey is widely regarded as the greatest designer in f1 history, but last week told red bull that he wanted to leave.

All this work on the us really had to make your us really had to make your assistance in moving and flowing to gaza, and we have got a deal on that israeli side. We had the senior Un Court Nader with us, who is playing in his role, along with many un agencies, so the progress is real, but given the need, given the immense need in gaza, it needs to be accelerated, it needs to be sustained, and as we focus on all of the necessary inputs, the number of trucks, what matters the most is the impact. And we are focused on measuring that, making sure the people are actually getting what they need, that its being delivered to them. One of the remaining challenges is making sure that when assistance gets through, it can be effectively distributed within the gaza, and we have to make sure that its not interfered with or impeded by hamas. So these are remaining challenges and there are a number of others. Particular making sure that we have effective de conflicted and coronation with the humanitarians. Its been a significant improvement there as well. But it has to, we have to make sure thats happening right down to the unit level, so that everyone in the chain knows when shipment moving through a gaza, and it can make its way through efficiently, effectively and get his way through to people who need it. There are number of other things with we want to see continued progress on. I left a list of items with the Prime Minister and with other officials in the government. Theres one other aspect to this thatis theres one other aspect to this that is critical, and i mentioned this yesterday. Besides the food, its usually important that everything, people need for their basic well being, is provided effectively. Safe water to drink, medicine when youre sick, access to hospitals and Health Care Facilities if you need urgent care, all of these things are absolutely vital, and again we are seeing progress. The Water Pipelines that had been cut off or had been destroyed or had other challenges are being restored. Thats good, but then once within gaza, we have to make sure the distribution works, and that require some work inside of gaza itself, including with the palestinian water authority. So, this entire ecosystem of care, of support for the people in gaza needs to be front and centre in our minds, and its very much for an in centre and President Biden cosmic mind. This is what he has been focused on from day one front and centre in President Biden� s mine. We are seeing results, but got to see more, faster and as effectively and efficiently as possible.

On rafah itself, look, our position is clear. It has not changed. It wont change. We cannot, will not support a Major Military operation in rafah, absent an effective plan to make sure that civilians are not harmed, and no, we have not seen such a plan, and at the same time, there are other ways, and in ourjudgment better ways, of dealing with the real ongoing challenge of hamas, that does not involve or require a Major Military operation in rafah.

I can tell you what we discussed today, among other things, was getting this agreement, which involves an immediate cease fire, hostages home and then working to build on it, and thats what we talked about today. Lets see if we can get this done. Look, i think this is something that the whole world is watching, and if hamas actually purports to care about the palestinian people, and wants to see an immediate alleviation of their suffering, it will take the deal. If it doesnt, i think thats further proof that it does not care a bit about the palestinian people. I think, again, all i can tell you is what we are focused on is giving a deal and understanding that thats something that will give us an opportunity to build on. Hamas will have to make its ownjudgements, but build on. Hamas will have to make its own judgements, but the build on. Hamas will have to make its ownjudgements, but the most immediate thing that can happen to actually improve the situation for palestinians and also create a dynamic that moves this in a different direction is the cease fire, the hostage deal.

He was sitting the port of ashdod, but said that progress on aid had been real, but given the immense needin been real, but given the immense need in gaza, it needs to be accelerated, he said it needed to be sustained, he said, watching the impact of the changes, that was the critical thing. Very interesting, some of the questions towards the end. He was asked, has the Israeli Government provided a viable plan about going into rafah . You may rememberfrom the about going into rafah . You may remember from the americans demanding to see a plan from israel and their plans for rafah. The way he answered that was saying that they were concentrating, in terms of they were concentrating, in terms of the discussion with benjamin netanyahu, on the Hostage Releases and, if that was successful, it was something to actually build on, going on to say, the us cannot support a Military Operation in rafah absence of a humanitarian plan, so those the key lines from the us Secretary Of State after his latest trip to the middle east absent of a.
