5:01 pm
from the car as would be presidential candidates, take dear case to court. why? why about because this is the most important thing that happened in the history of the world. and oppenheimer sweeps the oscars, the blockbuster about the race to build the 1st atomic bomb is be the winner on hollywood. biggest nice, the palestinians in gaza, or experiencing of ramadan like no other this year. and mostly month of fasting is being observed in the face of famine. israel is restricting with food medicine and life saving supplies can get into gaza. instead of spending time together with family in their homes, palestinians who have already been displaced multiple times, are under constant attack explosion and struck the southern city of rafa. shortly after dawn, camps shelters and homes or targeted and separate attacks across the entire strip. leaving survivors to sift through the rubble is really forces have killed more than
5:02 pm
$31000.00 palestinians since october. well, earlier i spoke with mel without casually, he's an english teacher in gaza and he told me that celebrating ramadan in the current circumstances and rossa is desperately difficult. this is very gloomy and miserable. situations housed within the senses and we find difficult as in house to get food because, you know, even when we get to this, the prices are in the sky. it's very expensive. it's a double life 10 times then before the war. and actually i'm nowadays working as a volunteer for many uh, kitchens. uh, free actually 60 it serviceable kitchen or soup kitchens. and one of them is the or how they, you know, it, schools well, how they know. and in this kitchen, uh, they provide food hook meals for tens of thousands of this was families were now suffering in the accounts in the show. 3rd, around this area,
5:03 pm
i was going to ask you, where do you pray, give them that. so many of the mosques across the gaza strip has been either badly damaged or completely destroyed. actually, there are still some laws that we kind of freight out. but when we want to take the decision to go to the last, the free, actually a lot of people are afraid to go to the most. because you know that a lot of most our attacks. so it's like a difficult situation to go through freight as you know that they make a sacrifice situation. a lot of rockets may destroy everything around. so it's of, it's a little bit difficult on some trainers. we pray at home and even for people to learn . now, you can imagine that in a small things and it's very crowded. at least 10 or 15 persons in a small fan with no food, no clothes, uh no money, no job. so they are wondering if, where they, how can they get fluids? so this puts more pressure upon the father who is responsible for his family.
5:04 pm
actually this happens every day. so we try our best to provide food for these people on to that with you. the pay and to relieve the pain. but actually all of our attempts, not one of them are, has been bought. it's not enough at all. soon occupied east jerusalem is really forces and blocked the entrance to the locks. a must compound. some worshippers preyed outside. others were trying to enter the compound were beat science really. soldiers at the gate entrance at jordan's foreign minister has condemned restrictions on the worship of deluxe a most compound, during ramadan, a months society criticized israel. so the worst thing humanitarian situation in gaza. items somebody came suddenly in the north allowing worship as to perform their religious duties and rituals during this holy month and restricting access to alex and most of all of these pushes towards an explosion in the situation. and this is what we are warning about and the heads up that the key dollars for an
5:05 pm
investor, israel has to open the door, is completely and widely for the entrance of humanitarian night. there's a finding goals of right now. the figures of the united nations talk about sales and just people who call and find food for living children dying because of the unavailability of food and milk. therefore, this humanitarian crises, content except through the ending of aggression. as you said, entrance have enough. i to old thoughts of the gaza straight and the allowance of distributing the site or live it goes. what site enters gauze and now is not enough for 4 percent of goals as needs. it's putting them aside. let's go to honda saw who would join us from damascus gate and occupied east jerusalem. it's one of the main entrances into the old city palestinians, a gathering for evening. prayers. home the what's the situation like there at the moment as well, sir, as you can see behind me limited movement among palestinians. some of them just getting out of the hall said prayers. these are mid afternoon prayers,
5:06 pm
but typically before the sun goes down before it is time for most of them to break their fast, this area is not really filled with a lot of people because people are usually indoors in their homes. but there is some sort of movement behind me a little, but now usually after if broad, which is after sundown, after the month of the prayers. this area is typically filled with thousands of palestinians who sit here on these steps typically all night long. so as you can see, while the situation is a little bit empty behind me, that's because they are simply preparing themselves for this 1st night of the month on at sundown, which is just about 2 hours from now. all right, how does that include reporting from just outside damascus gate at the one of the, um, uh, entrance points to the old city in occupied east jerusalem. thank you. honda, a spring and some yellow. yeah. and you direct the center for islam in global affairs that is stumbles. i'm university because it's they one of ramadan. i think
5:07 pm
we need a little bit of a reminder here that is really control of access to it. locks, a mosque for muslims is one of the thing that creates the most resentment of israel really throughout the muslim world. correct. and it's been happening now since 1967 . not only that, but they also an extra slim to israel, and now they're restricted, given access to the lots of mosque, and they want it to diff to have a division between certain places and time between jews and muslims. and of course, most times i insist of this is a holy aside just from a sense. so what do you expect during this month of ramadan when i expect more problems? because this is the way it's been for the past, you know, many years is and always will have some kind of instigation for people. right now we are even at the highest level of, of, of tension because of what's going on and gaza. so people are trying to think calm things down particular that made it comes to they don't want the insight or more
5:08 pm
insight meant to enter so well that yeah, we seem to have no interest up until right now in coming things down. however, on this specific issue of access to it locks and most by muslim worshippers he, he, um, he chose to de escalate his national security minister. it's more been vera was saying let's restrict very heavily access deluxe a mosque and that yeah. who said no, actually outside with the advice of shouldn't based on this what you're saying, keep it the way it's been when say because what it's trying to do is not it's time, not sort of sick to artificial aids from someone's to the most. that's what it might be if you want it. yeah. but in terms of the west bank, there are still many restrictions on males, particularly between the ages of 18 and 45. yeah, and i was speaking to uh, a member of the walks of the jordanian custodian of this holy site of this religious site. and he was telling me, if you're in your twenties or thirties in the west bank, there's no way you're getting access to to access. that's too. and that's the way it's been for the past few years since it's danielle who came to power. now even be
5:09 pm
more restrictive than then before it talk to us about the ceasefire negotiations. if i can get you to pivot to that in the run up the ramadan, there was some hope primarily really hope expressed by the americans that, that could generate some momentum towards a ceasefire. clearly that did not happen where the americans have been pushing pretty hard. the sky director william burns was here in the past few days trying to push for this. but the, the, the, the differences between the 2 parties are very, very wide. uh, on one hand is what it is. do not want to commit to any kind of ceasefire. they're willing to stop the cessation of hostilities for 6 weeks in order to get whatever captives they can get during that time and of course, the other party, the existence of movements. don't want to concede this because this is the strongest card that it have. so that has been a sticking point. the major sticking point about the, the, the commitment to, to cease fire, but also on the terms of the withdrawal. these really don't want to withdraw.
5:10 pm
they're willing to go around the outskirts of the guys or even within the website itself, but they're not willing to commit to the withdrawal. and then on the issue of, for that if you disease or if you choose to go back to their houses, particularly in the north of it, as they have been at the month that they will not allow. again, men between the ages of 18 and 60 to go back, which means it's a disaster because women cannot do it cannot take care of themselves, but also on the issue of the number of captives versus the number of the city and captives and prisoners that has also been a sticking point. the resistance has been asking for a 10 for one on the civilian side and 500 to one on the, on the soldiers. and the agreement the, the, the entered him agreement is to, to release 40 civilian is what it is. and for female soldiers. so this has been happening for 2400 these ways and this is not going to happen. so that make us trying to negotiate something some way or the is this the question of the ratio of how many policy and prisoners released versus how many the americans understand
5:11 pm
that the issue has to be different, particularly on soldiers. so there's gonna be somewhere between, let's say, 4052400 for the moment the, the, the 2 sides seem to remain as far apart as they ever have been on the issue of a new c spy. but will of course, continue to monitor that very closely. somebody ariano, thank you very much for joining us to. so thank you. a policy. it was in the west bank of struggling with a shortage of goods in the markets to prepare for if dar during ramadan. did abraham reports from ramallah? so this might be the busiest res seem to central vegetable market in the left since the beginning of the war. but it does not compare to the previous some of the on seasons in the previous years when it's would be hard to find a place to send really in the market, especially at this time of the day when palestinians are getting out of we're trying to gather and buy some vegetables to share the breakfast meal with the comedy amazon or amazon, use radio for patients,
5:12 pm
measures against palestinians continue with the extensive is really ways as well as the check point. that's our no doubt when things tell us simian, from realizing with their families in one table. so this is the worst remo dawn for us because of the war on gaza. how are we supposed to feel when our people can not find food there? our hearts are aching for our brothers and sisters. and because of that, how does the, the military check points have very difficult you never know when they put up a new one, they have that to complicate our lives. are academic situations already being difficult, but now with the closures and preventing workers from working in israel, it's become even more complicated to. 2 that's why the occupation, the war, the difficulties many people here were telling us that they were trying to find some sense of normalcy on older hearts and minds or
5:13 pm
so they were hoping that's why the beginning of this month, they would see if the fire know all of these hopes has been diminished. their prayers continue for a ceasefire for the war to as with the situation to get it is that when i came and just needed the occupied with the america's top diplomat is due at an emergency meeting on the crisis in haiti armed gangs of baffling security forces to complete control of the capital for the prince, bodies have been seen on the streets and the fighting has forced huge numbers of people from their homes. caribbean leader is from the caricom regional body or meeting in jamaica along with a us sector of state anthony blanket. let's talk about all of this with our correspondence. teresa bowed to reset your live in the hubble, and that's on the board of haiti and the dominican republic. so tell us what you

5:16 pm
becoming increasingly difficult. and that's exactly what many of the people with been talking to here are telling us events on the ground the seem to be far outpacing a diplomatic efforts to try and fix this crisis. no carry. com. leaders that's leaders of the caribbean. nations are meeting today about this, what can they do? what are they thinking of doing as well. there's much concerned in the region, especially a boy caribbean countries about what is happening in hate to because it has an impact in the region and has an impact. for example, with refugees. we're trying to leave hazy right now and are showing up in the for the 3rd some k cause of jamaica among other countries on over united states, of course, as people try to leave the country. so there's lots of concerns. there's going to be high level discussions about when i moved to national security support mission is going to be close to assist the haitian national police to fight against the gang visiting. talk about this multi national course for over
5:17 pm
a year. i was in for the prince last year, and already there were discussion asked the guys continue to go to control and increase their control over the capitals. but it's not clear yet when that is going to happen. there's also discussion with the members of the caribbean community with the members of the opposition in hazy they're trying to set up another transition. government set top of 5 of members, including for example, parties. that's fun, me, lab i last which is a party, a former president i received a very powerful party in that hate each and other members in court trying to create a transition government but will help in a way find a solution. however, the situation on the ground is dire, humanitarian crisis shortage is the food of medicine of walter. hundreds of thousands of people have been destroyed. so suddenly will you talk to people here? everyone is waiting that from today's meeting there's going to come out some type of resolution. right. teresa bow reporting from the hubble and on the border between haiti and the dominican republic. thank you very much,
