cited states to demand an end to the world. gosh, many of the students would have spoken to are saying that whatever happens next, the students of columbia university have already made history. the, the more is really destruction in gaza. nice. these 5 talks between how much and custody addiction and us mediators continue entitled the time about this. and this is obviously a life from don't have also coming up. the positive is really, is protest in tennessee calling for a cease fire. and the release of captains being held in god's attorney cheng and east to me. and my website is in the military struggling for control. one of the

country's most important trade highway voters in panama, going to the polls on sunday to decide on a new president. many are worried about corruption and a poorly performing economy. the auto months of is ready bombardments and gaza. diplomatic efforts to reach a ceasefire. deal between israel and thomas are getting more intense hans delegation is in cairo to meet mediators from egypt and called r c. i, a director william burns is also there. these writings have yet to send their delegation and it's not clear. find that's going to happen. sticking points remain with homeless, demanding an end. israel's war on garza. and that's something prime minister benjamin netanyahu, whose government is refusing to do. and it, israel, the governments under months and pressure. thousands of people have gathered tel aviv to attend a weekly demonstration to supply ministers kindly move the more their calling on

prime minister benjamin netanyahu to sign the cease fire deal with how much that would include the release of the counselors and confrontations have also been taking place between the police and believed families, the prime minister's office in west jerusalem, they've been demanding entry to a government meeting to call for the to continue. going to get more of the correspondence, stephanie decker in occupied east jerusalem. i understand that these are in a cabinet meetings got on the way out there are the ceasefire. adults likely has to have being discussed and that slower waiting for that cabinet meeting. this is the weekly cabinet meeting that happens here all the time, whatever the political situation is being disrupted, some 15, those pictures that you are playing earlier, families of the bereaved. these are families of soldiers that were killed in gauze of these families. once the russell operation to continue, it shows you that you do have various different voices. it is really society, but overwhelmingly the message from the people from his race is to bring the

captives home at this point and that means making a deal whatever the cost they do support the war. uh, pretty much categorically, but it's time to bring the captives home. i'm briefly going back to the cabinet meeting. you were asking me about yes, of course i'll be discussing the the tools, the tools that seem to be at a very complicated but critical point. the reality is that the moment israel doesn't have a delegation in cairo, how mass has the delegation. of course, the egyptians called on and also the americans, the head of the c i. a remains very arrived on friday. so despite all the back and forth of complications, the fact that tools continue is an indication that nothing has really been pushed aside as of yet. we've just todd well, so leaks quoting egyptian sources saying that the talks are positive despite all the negative leeks that we are hearing about. and the, the details being reported in the media are inaccurate. i think, you know,

there's so much speculation around these tools. what we do know is this, the critical and if there isn't an agreement at some point on this particular deal, that israel has made it very clear, it will go into the ha. mm. and the guys were saying, these are the protests that are on calling for benjamin netanyahu to sign a cx, 5 deal that are also protests from families and saying that they want the war to continue. is there any sign that the government is listening to why the side or well, we've had these weekly protests and tele beads for months on and they were huge in the beginning they have gotten smaller, some was their pool is for there to be a deal for there to be also many quitting for new elections and for an attorney, i'll just stand down at the moment. none of that is being listened to, but again, we're at a critical point and i think it's very difficult for benjamin netanyahu. everything he has said publicly in the last couple of days has indicated that he doesn't want this deal. why? because he says that there's not going to be an enter the war,

and then i'll fight is going to happen either way, whether there is a deal or north. and of course, how mass has made it very clear again. and again, as clear as yesterday saying that we're not going to agree on anything that doesn't end the war. so 2 sides that seem irreconcilable, but negotiate or say there is a deal they're continuing to talk. what we understand just briefly is the 1st phase of this potential deal for today's fire surgery. 3 captives at full, under the 2 mediterranean umbrella. that's women injured, sick, um and then you have almost a 1000 promising and prisoners being reduced by these res. he's ready forces withdrawing somewhat from certain positions inside goals on palestinians, some of them being able to return to whatever is left of their homes in the north, the bigger picture of the deal. there are 2 more phases. and the 3rd phase does talk about reconstruction, talks about the day after. so what is being discussed in colorado at the moment is

not just about cause us it's geo political. it talks about saudi normalization, with israel, that comes with the pos way to a policy. and stated, comes also was talks about an hour of coalition against iran. this is why these tools are so complicated. it's not just about god. so you have the americans involved, you have huge options of all you have the saudis involved, the guitar is so or the other sources also saying that if there is a deal, it's not going to be soon. there's so much we'll just talk about again, despite the regulated the speculations, we're going to have to wait and see what the definitive answer is we're going to get from us. and then is stephanie. thank you very much. indeed. stephanie decker in occupied east jerusalem. apollo standings and gaza city on morning the canning of civilians and the latest wave of his randy bombings. 2 homes were destroyed by s strikes and eastern vasa as well as refugee camps in central garza on attack. and is that true neighborhood out of killed the mother? and her 2 children, what does it say the bones drunk while she was preparing

a meal for her family? no. they were just sitting in their homes. they should have been safe and sound. as you can see, they were simply sitting here. there was no need to bomb them. all of a sudden rockets targeted them. look at those children. they are just kids for god's sake. this woman, a mother who was cooking for her children. this is her daughter. that was her son who just died. the palestinians in johnson hoping that this time of running ceased far towards will grant them some rough spite. the gonna cost the honeymoon, who is joining us in the southern guns. and we're just seeing those pictures. they are all of at least optimism or at least hope among some of the people in the palestinians. and the guys about from one shot to the doctor was saying, it sounds as though things are becoming more protracted. it is very, very complicated. talk to us about what people they are telling you about how they

feel about a cease fire. the yes, rob us the different breast as we're getting more of the mixed reactions from people across the rough last city here. and people have been in, during this intense bombing campaign, all the tragedy is unfolding that the difficult and is it created by the ongoing genocide of the war, but of the same to, to keep an eye on detox. as more reports emerging from cairo confirmed that there it is, there are complications, their progress is being made, but it's still the reaction is somehow mixed. right now we end up being a cautious in their optimism. but at the same time, there is an overwhelming sense of desperation, depression, and it's routed with concern and fear. and either way, people are waiting to pack up their, their backs right now and, and to hit to wherever at the, the decision is going to be depending on whether there is a deal. the destination will be the indulgence of. busy all the homes that the hot

they were forced to evacuated from, or if the answer was there is no deals p r, thinking on the day evacuated. sion zones are designated by this rating military. now, despite the 5 is by raising the concern that these evacuations owns are not save at all. and the multiple is really military failures to ensure that these areas are safe, in fact and awards on it just makes them worry then. and it clearly shows that this trusts of the, of the 3 of the military narrative where there is more is going to and whether the same zones are going to be set up or not. people are hoping that this is going to happen and into the war a ceasefire. a meaningful see? it's hard because that's the only guarantee that they're going to be a safe in the future. other than that, do you think it's still concerning? it's still causing them. so much distressed. meanwhile, as we're saying, the attacks are continuing to homes are destroyed by air strikes and eastern ruffles that are being other strikes as well as brief as you can bring this up to

date with what's been happening with the latest attacks. yes, as though we were preparing for this record, we're getting news of from the central area as well as the eastern part of gauze is to do more renewed of pressure tax on, on remaining public facilities. the either bites or ongoing artillery ceiling or a drawing as part of residential buildings, infrastructure dates, and part of the obviously just central area earlier hours of this morning and not as a refuge. i'm a new site i got into the west prince part of the way. there were literally thousands of people that set up their tens. i've been filtering there since the initial a weeks of this genocide. the overnight a talk me in the, in dropbox to residential homes were targeted and destroyed. people were given as little as a few minutes to evacuated the left around for life without taking any of their belongings. and they just have to run and filter somewhere else. the destruction

and that caused by the mountains was intense, not only destroying these targeted homes, but also the vicinity to further internal displacements, something that has been feeding into defense of permanent displacement that's been going on for the past 7 months and gaza, mainly the northern part of the southern part of gauze and city, that's that they do neighborhood work. a residential homeless, targeted a mother and her 2 children were killed. and as we understood it from a people on the ground, i witness who described that. this is the mother with her 2 children who are ready to split from the center. part of the city been shouldering that residential home, only to get bomb and died inside that hobby lock on the in the rough are in southern gas. to be able to dad and at least 3 here been injured in and is really a strike and loving on these really my lovely target at the time of my social ball and the saws it comes a day after has apollo, set it at bomb several is rarely targets for us, more of fighting between 11 on baseball and is really forces as intensified since

the water and gaza began splitting. it turned out to the us for a protest against israel's watering gauze. are continuing on university campuses across the country. the university of michigan is one of the 1st major american colleges to hold a graduation ceremony, and that have been some minor disruptions from students so demanding the university that invests from israel don't engine begins are coverage from michigan's college time of on orbit the class of 2024 has carried a heavy burden down a hard road. their education has been paused for the pen, demik moved a virtual classroom. and now this a bittersweet celebration of a generation z college career. what this class knows is that what is normal in a sense is a world and a people and a future for them that is uncertain. for some graduates like this palestinian

american whose last family and gaza, the approaches go on even is the dawn cap and gown. it feels as though it is the only thing that i can do. i cannot operate as business as usual. i cannot engage in anything celebratory because we have all been under such events. greece, i'm for the last 7 months for their families, like this man who came from malaysia. does he, his son graduate to protests, left, some supportive, some conflicted. i'm not against the protest, but i actually should not be held integrity of us because protests while sometimes they can get by owner or not be right. i think that they're a great way for people to express how they really feel and what they truly believe to university professors, the protests that graduation or a learning opportunity for post pandemic students. and it's usually a running that in other institutions thus far, not here, but in other institutions. university administrators have take you to defend themselves with very little reason to shut down students voices,

to arrest and detain, and break up the cabinets. that is served. the purpose, really of enlivening campus to date, as opposed to placing it down more than 63000 spectators watched. 8000 students get their degrees and an arena called the big house michigan stadium. there was a curious screening and there were volunteers there to route out disruption. but the students didn't find opportunities to hold the university accountable for its investments in israel and its war and got it. they were palestinian flags in the big house. these students were briefly detained by police after interrupting a smaller graduation ceremony on campus across the country, students, and says that with the university term over many of them will return to their family homes. but the protests will go on until their demands are met. john henry and l g 0 ann arbor, michigan, place in new york and clear to and governments,

and the rest of the, at least for the student demonstrates, is very simple as more. and i'm here in front of a new school in new york city. and this is a place where over 20 students, where we're rested on friday in the building right across another, at least 20 students were detained right there. they were taken to a police station not far away from where we are. they have set up an in complement here. this is just one of the universities we're students have been protesting here in new york that spoke to some of the students who had been participating in this protest that we're seeing here in new york city and across the country. many of them have been detained. joining me now is north 30, i know which know you weren't detained because you were protesting, demanding a ceasefire, demanding, and then to investment the investments that the universities carry out, and companies profiting from the war. tell us what happened to you? yeah, so i was actually detained on um april 22nd. so not friday yesterday i was returning much early but ive been supporting the new school in came and every day since. and

it was really upsetting for me to come here and see that and what you had taken down the entire encampment and had arrested by at noon on friday of 43, peacefully protesting students. what happened to you, what was it like to be detained? it was, it was very fine for me. i mean, you know, the officers arresting, use a lot of violent force and i still have to march the show, always placed in metal parks though, put on so tight. i lost the feeling in my thumb and still have temporary nerve damage, which, you know, aside from what, what, how do you think this protest will continue? well, meaning compliments wherever he moves from here, students detains what happens next? i believe that there is a slight discouraging feeling with that, but there is a lot of hope and that you know, the students are united from columbia to and while you, to the new school, the students are united and we will continue to stand up for each other,

thank you very much. so this is the situation on the ground. students have been protesting all across new york city in different universities. they have been arrested many of them have been corrupt, harassed, but in spite of that they say that they will continue on the streets demanding an end to the war. them guys are very so we'll just see the new york going ahead and i'll just get a stories of last and longing. a palestinian phone steals attention of the applicant, women's film festival in senegal. the hello. it's raining in both the east end, the west of australia. let's hop into those details right now. is that some showers not too far away from pers at 21 degrees on monday, but really the most significant weather is around new south wales state. in fact, the rain has pretty much been parked here over the last little while around sidney
