hello sunshine it's Tuesday January 16th
let's make this a terrific teacher
Tuesday shout out to all those inspiring
uplifting and informing us go on and
give a Dap handshake or high five let
them know we see you welcome to the best
10 minutes in news where I give you the
what letting you decide what to think
I'm Coy wire this is CNN 10 we start
this week with a somber update and
Milestone regarding the ongoing war in
the Middle East it's been 100 days since
Hamas militants killed around 1,200
people and took more than 200 people
hostage Israel subsequently began a
military offensive into the Gaza Strip
and according to the Hamas run Health
Ministry more than 24,000 people in the
region have been killed as a result it's
important to note that CNN cannot
independently confirm those numbers due
to the difficulty of reporting from the
war zone just last week Israel defended
itself from accusations of genocide in
the United Nations court and as Israel
continues its military action there's
mounting concern the conflict could
spread across the region there's a lot
to unpack here so let's turn to CNN's
Jeremy Diamond who helps explain the
latest in this
conflict well 100 days after the October
7th terrorist attacks that sparked this
Israel Hamas War Israel is facing
mounting International pressure as the
death toll in Gaza reaches near nearly
24,000 people killed a majority of those
women and children but amid that
International pressure the Israeli Prime
Minister is defiant for his part he says
nobody will stop us from continuing to
carry out this war from destroying Hamas
and securing the release of those more
than 100 hostages still held hostage in
the Gaza Strip the Israeli Prime
Minister promising total Victory and
warning that this war will take many
more months but it's clear amid those
defined combats ments that there are
still concerns that this war between
Israel and Hamas could erupt into a
broader Regional War that's as we look
to the south in Yemen houthi Rebels
there are vowing to continue their
attacks on that critical shipping Lane
in the Red Sea following strikes by the
United States and the United Kingdom aim
directly at houthi capabilities in Yemen
if you look to the north at the Israel
Lebanese border there are continuing
crossb clashes between the Israeli
military and Hezbollah an anti-tank
missile fired by Hezbollah hitting a
residential home in Northern Israel
killing a 76-year-old woman and her
40-year-old son uh the Israeli military
meanwhile uh firing strikes uh in
southern Lebanon at Hezbollah targets
Hassan asala the head of Hezbollah says
that only a ceasefire in Gaza could see
the end of those crossborder clashes uh
meanwhile in Israel as we hit this 100
day Mark many people across the country
are marking 100 days of captivity for
those more than 100 hostages who still
remain uh in captivity held by Hamas in
the Gaza Strip uh tens of thousands of
people flocking to what's become known
as hostages Plaza in Tel Aviv where a
24-hour rally was held to Mark those 100
days of captivity messages recorded by
leaders across the world flowing in uh
during uh that ceremony and as people
Mark those 100 days of captivity we're
now learning that negotiators have
struck a deal to allow for the entry of
medication to uh the Gaza Strip for some
of those 40 hostages who are being held
hostage who the Israeli government
believes are in need of medication uh
that medicine will be coming from cutter
delivered to Egyptian officials and then
to members of the Palestinian Ministry
of Health uh in Gaza more international
news now from one of the oldest
monarchies in the world thousands
gathered in the Danish capital of
Copenhagen on Sunday to celebrate their
new king Frederick VI 10th his mother
Queen margara second decided to step
down abdicating the throne after 52
years she was Europe's longest reigning
monarch so it's a new era for Denmark
for King Frederick I 10th and his wife
the new Queen who now lays claim to a
historic first the new queen of Denmark
is actually from a country almost 9,000
miles away Queen Mary is the first ever
australian-born queen of any monarchy in
history her husband King Frederick VI
10th became king of Denmark on Sunday
after his mother Queen margara II
officially left the throne marg's
abdication announcement came during her
annual New Year's message and was a
shock to many were just like what uh
cancel New Year's Eve but it also meant
that a new page in the fairy tale like
romance between the now king and queen
of Denmark was about to be
written it all started over two decades
ago in an unusual spot this Pub in
Sydney she was an Australian sales
executive and he was in town for the
2000 Olympics and The Story Goes that at
first she didn't know he was a prince
four years later the couple got married
in a lavish ceremony at Copenhagen
Cathedral and she became the Crown
Princess Denmark has since embraced Mary
who's been praise for her Poise and
commitment to social causes I feel very
confident in her and I think we've got a
a very good relationship indeed last
year rumors of an alleged romance
between the then Prince Frederick and
actress genev viiva Casanova rocked the
royal family Casanova denied the claims
and the Royal House never commented now

king and queen are stepping into their
new role and although Danish Royals have
a limited power under the country's
Constitution they will play an important
ambassadorial role 10c trivia before
Queen margara II when was the last time
a monarch abdicated the throne in
Denmark 52 years ago 160 years 452 years
or 87 78 years
ago if you said 878 ding ding ding you

Monarch to voluntarily step down was
King Eric III in the year 1146 he
entered a monastery let's turn now to
