a change of policy by the un security council on the fact that the us up spain the from both thing and let everybody else of both and to pass the resolution. the timeframe is still very tied. we're talking about 2 weeks that is not enough to risk on to the human interior gets has to be re created by this genocide, the work as well as not the not to coordinate and to secure the delivery of a, to the northern parts. and ga, the city overall, we're looking at the situations which is really military and it's political leaders are in defiance to the you that it's resolution as the foreign minister. but it, it clearly said that the resolution has no operational significance on the way the war is conducted, as well as continue or will continue its operations across the goddess trip and honey, the usb resolution also hold for a to be allowed into the entire strip. what is the humanitarian situation across
4:06 pm
the ground, specifically in the north of the world? right now, we're looking at a very catastrophic human humanitarian situation is going on in the northern part. there is literally an acute famine going on. that is pretty much at causing the death of people because of the in for is the hydrogen is star vision. so far we have documented cases of $27.00. it's still doing side of the enforce, the hide ration on a day and for us to start vision. those with critical health conditions are unable to get the, the not necessary food supplies and user ends and the medical supplies to help them survive these difficult conditions in overcrowded rough activity in the central area. only a certain amount of a being allowed to respond to this, the greater need that every one right now is suffering from. there's depletion of resources,
4:07 pm
it's causative basic supplies and needs. and just within the past 24 hours of visit by the, the united nations, the chief of the other side of the board is where he's talking about the not stop, but he's off allowing the trucks to do the gaza strip as there are miles of them on the other side of the borders haven't been able to cross and delivered much needed aid supplies and food supplies. that survival goods either for people who need them the most right now at these difficult conditions. okay, honey, my mood uh will leave it that i need that for us in rafa in southern gaza. meanwhile, as riley strikes have sent more injured palestinians to the already overwhelmed l acts. the hospital in central garza, i'll just there is heading to diary reports from darrell about us. of course the size,

4:12 pm
a report that says they are reasonable grounds as well as committing genocide in gaza. or just galban easy says israel has violated 3 of the 5 acts listed under the un genocide convention, including killing members of a specific group causing serious bodily or mental home and deliberately inflicting conditions of life. calculated to bring about as physical destruction in whole or impulse. she also found that genocidal acts were approved and given the effects of the statements of genocidal intent by senior is riley minute treat. and government officials of these acts all been easy. all these uh, parts of a settler colonial process of a ratio which has been underway for more than 70 years. now she recommends, amongst all the things and immediate alms and ball, go to as on israel and the member states to support south africa. and it's attempt to prosecute israel at the international court of justice. i would join the volleyball diplomatic editor at james bass. easy in the studio with us. so james, quite
4:13 pm
a lot of information in that report. you have it in front of you took us through the key highlights the report. well, i think the 1st thing to say about the report has been released already, although we're going to hear from the special russell to who's an independent experts pointed by the un human rights council going to hit from over to bus. now because she, she presents a oral version of this report to the human rights council. the 1st thing to say is that these are presented always like the in the same format, these you and reports. but she's actually added a title to this report. normally just as reported, the special rep or to the title is and that to me and that so many anatomy of a genocide and that is how it reads. she's made many of these points before, but the only one place she looks at the legal definition of what is a jump, genocide. i mean goes to it page by page explaining why she says this is a genocide. the 1st category is coming members of the group, the group being palestinians,
4:14 pm
and she talks about the death of the over 30000 policy is, is we know she estimates 12000 more dad. missing under the rubble, she says the amount of explosives has been dropped on garza in her estimation is the equivalent to new, clear bombs. and she goes through the line by line explaining all the, all the aspects of why she thinks this is a genocide, including genocidal intent because you have to prove intent for this crime. and she quotes very specifically, all of these is riley officials who she says, have shown genocidal intent, including the defense minnes. i'm the prime minister benjamin netanyahu himself, as you say, she's, she's making out this case for genocide. i mean, took us through some of the key key points. i mean, how did, how is she just to find that? well, let's just say that the 3 areas are killing members of the group, which is of the sheep. she gives all of all the details of how many people have been killed about the right, the 70 percent that were quoted this a women and children. she says,
4:15 pm
so there was clear indication of an intent to target members of the group. and she then talks about how, how the group are being affected. by all of this, she talks about the trauma facing all of all of the people of garza. she talks about the injuries that are being suffered by people in gaza. it is a line by line, i think a combination of what is rel is done very well matches also. i think what we've heard in the international court of justice, west south africa made its case. if you read this report, i think you'll see some of the same elements in that, and it certainly backs that case by south africa because we saw this, the international court of justice coming up with its into, in a verdict is provisional measures. but that case is still going on. hey, you know, i think this is, this is powerful, a powerful addition to that. she makes uh, also some strong recommendations on what should happen next. what are those recommendations? well, i don't think it's likely given the international political climate,
4:16 pm
many of these are going to be accepted, but they are powerful. she says that they should be a total opposite ball. go off on these route. she says that countries should support south africa with that case. of the i c j and then take the case off off to what dakota's already started with these provisional meshes to the un security council. she says the international criminal court and that's doesn't deal with states. it deals with individuals. but that she gets involved and should be a, the old countries should refer to the international criminal court to make sure they bring action to. she says, is role should pay for what is done, talking about rapid reparations. all the cost of all the damage should be paid by israel. she says as a short term measure. that should be an international protection for us to put in place and goes up. and she says on road that you an agency that is around is now stopping from count. now it is active, it is. she says that should be properly funded. i should add. israel has already
4:17 pm
seen this report and has already responded. it says, this is the scene in version of reality. when james, as we said, she is expected to be making this case in front of the human rights council in the next hour. so we will be indeed taking it live and discussing it further. thank you for now, james phase. i'll definitely get into this big now. so jeffrey, nice. he's a human rights lawyer. he prosecuted fullness. the latest slope of done, most of which is chair of the china tribunal at the we get tribunal, which investigates which human rights abuses in china. he joins us from time to bring in the united kingdom. thank you so much for your time on al jazeera. so i want to stop with the united nation 600 hearing voices. i'm afraid. thank you. can you ask the question again? yeah, i want, i wanted to, i, i've just said thank you for joining the program. but let me start with my question . um, i wanted to ask uh,
4:18 pm
get your take on the u. n. s. the ruling that took place yesterday cooling 1st. these find garza which israel says it rejects despite it being binding on the international. no. do you think there was much point to having this votes given it's not being did to by as well. and in fact, many previous votes by the u. n. c. have also been ignored. this finding this dead. kevin nation by the security council makes it much. honda, so israel not to deal with allegations of crime this have been being made against, isn't that going to be made against it with greater force today by the special wrap or to or knowing the opinion and the need for a see saw expressed by it all states with any one extension, makes it impossible for israel to say it is outside of the law. even if it's able to say that the resolution itself does not constitute black and white black or low
4:19 pm
. what does that resolution one having the effect is a matching more for your diplomatic correspondent, james than familiar oil cars, political correspondence, but the general public drive the opinion, and therefore the policies of those they elect will be a pull. in my view, if this resolution is not prospected by israel, well so far it is not the will is continuing, the fighting is ongoing, more people have died. so in terms of the album easy, a report that we expecting by the un rapid to do you find that to be significant. the report is interesting detail. when you james, is already pulled up some of the most interesting and important points. and it is a document of the kind the would be reflected in the questions that would be
4:20 pm
awesome is read or data is if they were prepared to present themselves to either the international court of justice as a state or as individuals to the international criminal quote because it's all heading off for them simply to say their report is rubbish or whatever term they've used. francesca of an id who is both respected and controversial, that has being detailed in her work for 10 years. supports everything she says by either a factual reference or a legal reference. and each one of those points needs to be understood. and the, one of the most important things that the united states and the united kingdom could do right now, that would help the physician is to tell israel as well as the how much lead to this. but once this is over, there will be an accountability process of the i, c, c, the c j,
4:21 pm
or maybe by some separate tribunal. and most important to those countries and who we are, the congress bronson, jeremy. and so we will support that legal process and will hand over for trial, anyone against whom evidence has shown to exist. so the report is of great value in setting the scene for what should happen. no more. no country should not be supporting the announcement of accountability in due course. the report is also important for that very difficult back. ceasar is an exercise that the big countries refused to do. which is to look at the history and to separate out the 2 incompatible problems for assigned problems that are being dealt with. because the terrible things that happened on the 7th of october last year is do not
4:22 pm
justify treatment of the palestinian people. in garza, you decide to be shown separately and independently to be criminal. and she looks at that aspect of the history with the longer history. and that long history includes, of course, great responsibility and many would say high culpability by great britain. and by the united states, right, right. and i be is, yes i, i, and i totally understand your point. i understand that the, this report and many others from the un saying some of the things set the scene very well. a telling us what israel has been doing, what other countries happened to i guess the question i'm asking is, what else did they do? do they actually result in anything else tangible because we have international institutions organizations do they serve any purpose? because more often the notes when it comes to that recommendations they are ignored and there is, is, there is no body that can enforce them. yes,
4:23 pm
they do have consequences. for example, the very important recommendation about no longer for supplying homes is one of the countries will find it very difficult to resist or they should find it difficult to resist. they also have consequences, for example, the international criminal code. and it's prosecute the car in con, who should get on with the business of making clear what he's going to be doing about holding those responsible to account. of course, in conflict a rule if warren policy decides not to take any account of an outside opinion or legal opinion or even occupations. opinions for the time being things will carry on is that policy intends. but with every day that passes, that policy builds up against itself a grim a future. and since it knows that it will ultimately affect the way they would ultimately change the way it behaves. israel cannot go on on this side of the conflict. of course the 7th of october also has to be dumped. we put on this part
4:24 pm
of the country, the improper treatment. the criminal infrequent has so many people decide the palestinian people is something that israel has to be made to recognize. it will be helped will be held accountable for adolfo and secretary cameron, the president of the united states of america and britain come the secretary of state, have to tell israel, but that's gonna happen because one thing that probably frightens leaders who engage in crime is the source of loss of their liberty. so you guess these things kind of have effect, but from the on the supply side, i'm not a prize to businesses as well as the state. it's engaged. you know, i'm surprised, but also in respect to me activating the process is that what home is read? honestly? does to account about how much leads is there are for me, i'll be kidding. how much lead is on side. it does to be
4:25 pm
a rest of them. teaching them properly as prisoners of war. i'm presenting them for external international adjudication. okay. i really appreciate your perspective jeffrey nice joining us by human rights lawyer. most of well, how about this top political leda as male on a is in the rain in capital. it's wilks, he has met with the foreign minister jose and amir of the law here. in the past few hours, ron maintains close ties with thomas on the 2 sides have held several meetings since israel's foreign garza began to appear on his cold. how much does attack on israel, on october, the 7th, a success unless man above his, despite the heavy prices and huge sacrifice, he's paid by the palestinian people whose namely goes in was designed to extend the file to chief any of the military objectives of strategic goals they are now losing their political umbrella, if not the protection,
4:26 pm
as seen in the resolution handed down by the security council. the resolution full of it came lights and with some gaps that need to be filled. is an indication that these riley occupation, he's on the unprecedented political i selection. yes. yeah. what the say the united states now with 1st responders in baltimore and dealing with what they're describing as a diet emergency. 2 people have been rescued off their vehicles, plunged off the collapsing bridge when to contain a ship rammed into with smoke fe, yet how many are still missing? now the ship was heading out of port when the crash to place just before 1 30 in the morning, like on time investigate as a questioning the cruise of the single pool flagged vessel. i don't know how many vehicles yet. i know that we have detected the presence of vehicles as far
4:27 pm
as a number between the 7 and 20. that's been a dynamic town throughout the morning. just given the fact that we haven't yet nailed that number down. we do believe that at least 7 are involved in that at least 7 at this point. or let's go to our corresponding mike counter. he is near the collapse bridge in baltimore. mike, so it's been a number of hours since this incident took place. one more week. can you tell us about what happened? both searches going on for anybody who might have survived the collapse of that bridge. the whole problem compounded by this is essentially a title based, and the type is on its way out at the moment, but the all very strong carbons here. now we've heard that several vehicles have been identified on the bottom of the river, but the exact count of the number of people who fell into the wall to following the collapse of the bridge that sunset. and we heard at least 7 people. but it is
4:28 pm
reports as well that there were a number of construction workers on the bridge at the time that it went down. now the sequence of events uh, the container ship was on its way from baltimore hava out to chesapeake bay. ive been for the field towards the sri lanka. however, the bridge behind me here is a stretches across the river b as a government intelligence agency report and then classified report says that the vessel lost propulsion. as the crew members contacted the show, saying that a collision was immune and so how soon before the actual collision, that's the message occurred. we simply do not know, but the focus at the moment is obviously the search for survivors. the people who went into the. busy to when the bridge went down, we're going to be having hearing a news conference with the governor of navy land within the next few minutes. maybe
4:29 pm
we will get more details and, but at the moment, the whole focus is on finding survivors. the cause of the incident, the cost of the collision. well, that is something that several government agencies will be looking to in the days and indeed weeks ahead. now the whole of votes away here behind me has been closed as to traffic. i'm. this is obviously a major impact on the port of baltimore, which is the 6 that comes largest port on the atlantic basin. so this would obviously have an impact on the massive movement of goods that come in and out of the baltimore hall. but as i keep on saying, the focus at the moment is on finding any survivors. coast guard is out there. we've got to helicopters, flying overhead, dive team. so the, so that is the absolute focus at present for mike, a wonder if you could tell us a bit more about the challenges involved in this search and rescue. obviously it is
4:30 pm
now getting a lot like this. so uh, the ability to, to see is now is, is now best uh, uh, but the warsaw understand is, is incredibly cold and, uh, the site itself is supposed to be quite dangerous. uh, as a result of, of this collision. what, what are you hearing from officials? well, once again, these, this challenges off the search are immense. because once again, you're looking at a boss of expense. so 40 here. you also have those title conditions, as i say, the tide was coming in early, and now it is on its way out of the cartons to contend with. all of these elements together, do make full and exceedingly has of the search. now, for example, at this particular stage, we understand that the ship itself has not been voted yet because they are still trying to ascertain the condition of the shipment to ensure that it is completely safe. before going a board,
4:31 pm
what do we do know and what we are told is that old $22.00 members of the ship, all accounted for not also and bold. that ship is a pilot. this is a regular routine here we'll beat vessels leaving the boat. this is a very big vessel, indeed. it's in the region of 300 meters long, but there's always a pilot to or to guide the vessel along the waterway out into the open ocean. we understand that pilot is still, it's also accounted for on board the vessel, as i said above the $22.00 crew members. but the conditions of the search very difficult indeed, not least because of the mass of expense of water. that is the focus of the search . ok, thank you for that. mike. kind of that for us in baltimore, reco dates in eastern mexico is creating dangerous conditions. his jeff, with a check of the weather, supercharged temperatures in parts of south america. however, once so we've been sitting records hottest march days, georgetown in diana. 35 degrees colors are on dark to the right. the higher the
4:32 pm
temperature you're down a bit on wednesday, but it's been hot. it's been dry here. so that heat will continue plenty of storms through the amazon jungle to be expected and still some showers into the mix for the southeast corner of brazil, but not as bad as it has been warm breeze, but likely to see some storms around by blanca. so also been hot in central america, hot and dry. and when do so, we see these wildfire is erupt in eastern mexico and very crew stayed quite stock images. bear again, all has to do with the heat. we've seen it through hundreds, nicaragua, temperatures into low to mid thirties, and with this warrant coming in to the us call fall, it's triggering the storms around northern florida pushing right through to the carolinas, but no hurts if this we are talking about snow from the upper midwest, pushing into northwestern ontario, it's starting to wind down, but by the time is setting down 30 centimeters and warmer air, coming into the great lakes and the us northeast. to the west. we go. another pacific storm, so rain for western canada, the pacific northwest. and that what,
4:33 pm
whether drops down to northern california, but likely just some showers and stuff. oh, okay. so it has on this news. uh, we'll have more on which needs found a dirty and a solve this fight against his expedition to the united states and australia and move a step closer to quote a fine to the 202612. the places that now which asian lead did heavy rain storms, those storms are likely to be effective. if we don't get the problem under control, we'll just have help coming soon. unique perspective. everything is political. you cannot stay out of politics and everything is a feminist issue. to on hud voices, we see our literacy destroying the ability to have
4:34 pm
a normal life in god. and that the stories that really feel us having a normal life is a, connects with our community and tap into conversations you weren't find elsewhere. there is no over there and it's all not, it's right here. and right now the stream on out to the around is in an increasingly complex world. it's paramount to be direct instruction was there should be this month on sort of discussions that come through the norm upfront on how to 0 the you're watching out. is there a mind if i told the story?
4:35 pm
is this our a defined israel says a un security council cease fire resolution will have no operational significance for its ministry. and office resolution demands an immediate see spot in the strip during the remainder of ramadan and also calls for the unconditional release the you and the special wrapper to set to release the report that finds there is a reasonable grounds to believe as well is committing genocide in gaza, francesca albany, he says israel, his bought age of 3 of the 5 ad listed on the, the un genocide convention. and in the us city of baltimore, 2 people have been rescued off the vehicles plunged, also collapsing fridge when the container ship rammed its waves report say the ship lost power, and the crew warned. most of the elections of the pending commission, the
4:36 pm
a mass grave containing the bodies of dozens of migrants has been discovered in libya. and so at least 65 died as they were smuggled through the does it pro 750000 refugees and migrants in libya, many a daylight laborers and depend on what for their families back home. the jobs discussed during ramadan is malik trainer reports from mr. asa a boy, you know how old and her family recently arrived in the slot from sudan. she says it was a long and dangerous journey. they spent their life savings paying people traffickers to get here. but that then how do you, after the fighting started in sudan, things became horrible and it was no longer possible to live there. our neighborhood was a war zone and was being showed. there was no more work. getting food or water was a huge problem. we had no choice but to leave with their savings depleted, and that's the says putting food on the table for
4:37 pm
a month on this year is difficult to do. you ins. migration agency says around 6500 student needs refugees have arrived in libya since fighting started last april . but libyan officials say the number is much higher. according to united nations, more than $700000.00 migrants in libya, while some of them are flood violence, the vast majority, 86 percent cited economic reasons for coming to it. so yeah, and from niger supports his parents, 3 siblings and the wife and so on. the deck, so like in montgomery, i sent my family what little money i have. they need basic food supplies for them of them. but i didn't have much money. i started watching it on his very slowly. i went to the round about to day, but there was no way god willing it will get back to me because i have to send the money fight the as good out a round about him. as rod is usually busy with hundreds of migrants looking for work, what during the whole,
4:38 pm
the months of troubles on things slow down and work is hard to come by. many migrants find it difficult to feed themselves and provide for their families back home. during the whole, the month of ramadan, a time for helping those less fortunate donation centers are scattered across the city, such as the small either send it to help, we usually feed $250.00 to $300.00 people every day. we've been doing this every ramadan for many years, and some people donate food where they bring money and we buy the food can do for libya has long been effected by conflict and political divisions, but migrants still risk coming here. although challenging and at times dangerous. for many it's their only hope to provide for their families far away. now, trina elder 0 as well to. busy well, the international organizations migration has recorded and alarming increase the number of people dying while trying to migrate. in a recent reports,
4:39 pm
it found that move an ace and a whole 1000 people either died or disappeared last year as the highest figure in the past decade. the vast majority of dying in the mediterranean, i have a 45 percent of migrant debt secured on that route. while most victims are not identified, if those who are one in 3 come from a country that's in conflict, as usual. i don't think that the least of because we close a 15 minute. okay, let's take a live now to geneva, where the un special rapids to francesca alban easy is speaking about as well as will on golf at the human rights council. let's have a listen in. it is with a heavy,

4:47 pm
t routinely called on soldiers to nicely to the people of gaza is compelling evidence of explicit and probably consignment to commit genocide. evidence further indicates that this journal solid inside sprint has been internalized inducted up owned by soldiers on the ground. one of my key findings is that israel's executive immediate, already leadership and soldiers have intentionally the store to the rules of the international humanitarian law. distinction, proportionality and precaution, in an attempt to legitimize genocide, the violence against the policy and people by deliberately stretching the definitions of human shields, evacuation orders, warnings safe, so and collateral damage and medical protection. he's well as use their protective function as you might need talk to him, come a flash with the effect of concealing factor until a conduct from which the only inference can rest reasonably be drawing is a state policy of genocidal violence against the palestinians,

blurring the distinction between protect that cvd and source to be the infrastructure and come back then sort legitimate to mediate, already targets. he's real how to effectively correct the right. so we'll see you then population in gaza as human shields or whatever is the accomplices. as a matter of like a policy those who manage to evacuate to areas that is well defined does save you money. sorry. and zones have been met with further attacks there. that's any injuries justified us collateral damage by making repeated claims which have been systematically discredited. the thomas use the hospitals as authoration centers is will appears to be over eating on the premises on the premise. that if you tell a lie long enough, people will believe it. he's really has use become a flash of your money tare on low to characterize the entire policy and people in life sustaining a life saving infrastructure of gaza, us target dable,
4:49 pm
key level destroy, you will see sort of attempted to legitimize, for example, the big for deliver stations of gods as medical infrastructure, which has led to potentially thousands of additional that's life, changing injuries and trauma. a huge sale as done as it has been distorted to justify a world by making nation the light of these i find that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the trash showed indicating the commission of the crime of genocide against palestinians as a grouping. guys as being met specifically is right. let's go meet the 3 acts of genocide, 330 presenting tent, causing seriously serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group. deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to, to bring about its physical destruction. the whole or impart and imposing measure as intended to prevent verse within the group. the dental siding guys, the most extreme stage of a long standing, subtler cooling a process over each are of the night and they to palestinians for over 76 years.
4:50 pm
this process has oppressed about his team and tons of people in every way imaginable. crushing their in then, you know, the animal right, to self determination, demographically, economically, territorially, culturally and politically. as he's real, as attempted to displace them, expropriate the land and other resources and ultimately replace them. the colonial needs of the west high school and don't israel's colonial settler project from the volume into story of the very birth of the state of israel to press the book to patient seems 1967 the creeping closure of gods. that seems 1993 and its mean. these are your thoughts on guys since 2007, the world now sees the bitter fruit of the impunity forwarded to israel. this was a tragedy for told what the international criminal court will have to deliberate international cream, sorry,
4:51 pm
what the international court of justice will have to deliberate the international criminal court will have to investigate. it is my responsibility to remind you that the genocide convention includes a use kogan snore. mendera g o missed so big ation to prevent the commission of genocide. reality. the international court of justice recognized as plausible exactly 2 months ago. the time for states to act was then and as they did not, the time is now in this darkest hour, the international community can not continue to ignore that. it's israel's project to read palestine of palestinians in defense of international law and the world's failure to go these road to account the tests led to, to genocide laid bare and gaza denial of the reality and the continuation of these real st puny and exceptionalism. he's no longer viable, especially in light of yesterday's binding security to cancel the resolution to
4:52 pm
find floor member states to abide by their tents, which start with imposing in arms embargo and sanctions on israel. and so ensure that the future does not continue to repeat itself. thank you. thank you. okay, do it. we're just joining us. we were just listening to the un special wrapper to a francesca, albany z, a, presenting her report to the human rights council, saying that they are reasonable grounds of israel is committing genocide in garza. let's discuss this further with all depth tabatchnik editor at james bass. it's a very impassioned dining reports i would say uh we, we discussed this a little earlier. that's cool. be an, an estimate of genocide which tells us a lot of what, what did you make of what she had to say that was very powerful testimony. her hood by the people that are in geneva, the pilot in the ceiling when the top floor of the wing that houses the human
4:53 pm
rights council. and i think the 1st thing say you just heard the end of it, that almost an echo of what we have the security counseling as they oppose it is very, very all to get applause in a un chain. but that's not how these official speeches are normally greeted, but she gave that speech and people delegate to that. i'm, they are on pass. it is of countries uploaded. her words which were very, very strong words, as you say, they don't normally put a title on these reports. just this was the oral presentation of a report, but not to me, of genocide is what she called this report. and that is what she says. she has discovered, she says that there are reasonable grounds to prove as a genocide, she looks, it was in the report on what the genocide is, what constitutes the genocide, the legal definition. and then she goes through it line by line saying that in it that, that, that was the genocide in her. and these are genocide in her estimation. for example, one of the key points clearly of a genocide is killing the targeted group. she says that has happened and you heard
4:54 pm
as s like not just the desk told that we know about. but the, probably a for the 1012, for the 12000 palestinians who are missing and all data as well under the rubble and saying that the israeli military had use 25000 tons of explosives. she said that is equivalent to the amount of exposes into nuclear bombs. she said that the grounds for genocide met in genocide is a crime where you have to show intent. and she said that the, the intent in the report, she quotes, all sort service, right. the officials, including the defense minister, your kalonde, to his comment about human animals. he talks about the prominence to nothing of benjamin that, you know, he's comments to it. so the side lots and so is that jayden taisha, sorry to interrupt you j. james? i because i thought that was quite interesting. have pointing out, specific ministry need is military figures. and then she also talks about the potential of, you know, bodies like the i c c having to take
4:55 pm
a closer look at this. but yeah, yeah, no sheep sheets, she name is specifically leaders in the report. and yes, she says the i c c should deal with this because she says, israel is not hiding it. she says it's ostentatious the genocide that's taking place. and she says, israel is perverting of the principles of international humanitarian law. ready or to justify what she said is more of an elation she says israel is working on the premise that if you tell a lie enough times people will believe it's. and she said the, israel's basic plan here is to read. these are how it was read, palestine of palestinians. the recommendations. yes. include the, the international criminal court because the international court of justice is already sitting in the hey, gets, how does provisional measures existing discussing this already in that case, continues among the other recommendations from that i c j. case in the hey, that south africa's case now should be taken to the un security council. she's saying that they should be an urgent arms embargo on israel,
4:56 pm
so that the us particularly, but lots of other european states that are providing the buttons and the money for the palms. they should not be able to do that anymore. she sang the damage in gaza . she said basically cause of the infrastructure in agriculture and everything and goals are being raised. the israel must pay full reparations for that damage. israel must put the bill for everything, but it is destroyed. she's also cooling in a temporary measure for an international protection, forced to go in on the ground in gaza. and she's saying that the us agency that is been doing the humanitarian relief in gaza, that israel has been pumping down on it. makes is claimed that they were involved in october the 7th and run this agency. and it was never flooded any evidence for that. she says the international community now must make sure that that is properly funded. james, i want the they may be people watching uh, this uh,
4:57 pm
watching uh what we've just had by a, a francesco been easy and, and watched yesterday when we had the voters by the u. n. c. and wondering what is the purpose of all this? because at the end of the day, we have israel continued to do what it wants to do. we've, we've had a israel come out today and, and reject the us the verge. they've also rejected the findings by francesca alban easy does. it actually matter when it comes to uh, anything like any, anything tangible. i think it matches in some ways. yes. you're right. she is a special russell to a that's an independent x. but a point about human rights council. there's always been one of those for many years decide to discussing the human rights situation. and if you wonder why she didn't talk about what happened in october, the 7th have mandate his own needs about us in the entire she she comp talk about things that go on inside israel because that's not her job to do so. okay,
4:58 pm
but i think what is important about this is that you saw yesterday at the security israel on its own. and here i think another attack on israel's global standing is what's not small on this at the top of the out for now. thank you. that's it. for me and james, for this new so and in 2018. john misled 40 days of civic action against the armenian government. i'm president soccer group on power. i'm going to liberate this where and documentary follows he's non violent campaign to bring down a car off prison. on this thing out with gun a democratic revolution. i am not alone on media as velvet resolution on our
