7:03 pm
the taking hostages and other crimes alleged you're not applications. well, thing goes, is there a fee? is that the i c c application were changes, nothing is this or as a salt from north to south, intensifies late, probably late is on the ground, the gaza in just a moment. the 1st step voss and joins us now live from the hague. step your outside the international criminal court, who lives clearly on this decision to request arrest warrants for these incredibly high profile figures. put this into context for us. how significant is this announcements? a very significant that we can easily say this is one of the most high profile cases that the the licensee has ever taken off. we know of cause that in 2020 suite they also issue the arrest for when the guns press, the president of flooding inputs in from a russia. but now this is a, a case against an ally, a very close ally,
7:04 pm
ally to one of the powerful nations on, on the planet to the united states. and this is very unheard of. so there was a lot of pressure from both sides on the ice. you see the protests of demanding to prosecute the time time to x more swiftly as to issue these or to request these a rest florence for the oil. so there was also a pressure from senator, from the united states, also on the ice to see, to stop this case and not the issue arrest warrants. and they were threatening with rep of caution. so in the middle of all this was to prosecute the car, and he has done this investigation over a period of months and has now issued these very 5 significant arrest warrants. and there's a lot, a lot of pressure already, even since this announcement has been made here in the hague, from the political life leaders across the globe, either support and or some that may the case. so it will be a fairly politically sensitive please. step torcous through if you may,
7:05 pm
what is the next? because this is mainly at this stage. the 1st step, a request for arrest warrants to be made. yes, this is the 1st step of very important significant step. now the next step will be that the pre trial chamber here at the international criminal court will have to decide if this request for these arrest warrants is a valid request and that they should be issued. so basically what they are testing is this is this case, the, that's the court has jurisdiction in this case. and we know that it has the jurisdiction on the palestinian territories. and also a, one of the questions i have to answer is, are these a soft aspects so important to be brought to the trial and are these for, i'm still continuing and the got them con, has said that what's happening now and guy. so it clearly shows that the crime says he says, nathan, y'all and guidelines are
7:06 pm
a suspected of are still continuing. so the, the answer from the pre, twice as the chamber, we are expecting in a few weeks in the case of president of vladimir both. and it's happened the 3 weeks after the requests for the arrest warrant, so it could be a similar period. and then of course, the arrest warrants will be issued if, if the chamber a ways and then the $124.00 nations that are signatories to the rome statute are obliged to hand over the suspect if they're in their countries. so the eyes to see here in the hague, where they can be detained and be brought to justice. all right, many things for that step. voss into the i. c. c in the hague. all right, let's go to mama jump june with the is ready reaction. just to remind you, of course, since i was there was binding for reporting within israel itself. we have been forced to do on to elizabeth outside of the country, which is why i'm, it's in a mom for us. so i'm and please talk us through the reaction though from israel. so
7:07 pm
fall from both the government and the opposition so now you've unsurprising. what we've heard thus far is outrage from across the political spectrum in israel. let me just walk you and our viewers through a few of the reactions we've heard from top political leaders in israel thus far. there was a statement from benny gans, he's a former defense minister and member of the war cabinet. he said placing the leaders of a country who went into battle to protect its citizens in the same line with blood thirsty terrorist is moral blindness and a violation of its duty and ability to protect its citizens. that's been against. we also heard from, yeah, your la pete, he's the head of the opposition and is real. he put out a tweet in which he said, the i c, c. arrest warrants are a complete moral failure. we cannot accept the outrages comparison between that and yahoo ends and walks between the leaders of israel and the leaders of how much beyond that. we've also got a statement from isaac hertzog. he's the president of israel. that statement. very
7:08 pm
blunt saying the announcement of the prosecutor at the i c. c is beyond outrageous and shows the extent to which the international judicial system is in danger of collapsing. we expect all leaders in the free world to condemn outright this step and firmly rejected. beyond that, we saw a lot of a name just really officially, being quoted throughout these really media landscape, saying that this announcement was hypocritical, that it was outrages. they said that it was embarrassing and disgraceful and insolent what we know at this hour is that there isn't as really brain trust a lot of top legal scholars, as well as members of the national security council that are meeting they have set up a war room in order to try to figure out how to deal with this going forward may have sensors that could well be some sort of legal challenge in the pipeline. i wonder though, in the immediate or whether it's possible to say these developments of the i c. c will have any impact on the way in which as well as wages for as well, that's the key question. the, you know, to, to judge by how is real
7:09 pm
a has reacted to even you in resolutions against israel in the past. well, you would expect that it's not going to change israel's behavior because in the past we've seen that you in security council, the u. n. g a. they have voted against israel and resolutions, some of which should be legally binding. and israel has ignored them, not only ignore them, but they have responded in a way that they've responded today saying that it was disgraceful, and that these are bodies that are against israel. so that's kind of what we expect in the short term. what's interesting is that it would be hard to expect the israel would actually feel pressure from the icy seats when they're not even responding to pressure from the us right now. case in point being the fact that the us national security advisor jake sullivan has been 2 days and is really yesterday he was meeting with his really prime minister benjamin at yahoo. today he was meeting with you off the lot, the defense minister in israel, and the in fact um yeah, what we've seen any of really media thus far is that in those meetings mr. sullivan press to the is really officials not to expand the operational drop off time. but
7:10 pm
essentially he was told that israel was going to go ahead and expand its operation to drop by this after months of pressure from the us on israel to try to get them to limit the scope of their operations that are of course the us is, israel's biggest military ally is their biggest ally and the fact is, israel isn't even adhering to pressure from the us so that i think gives you some sense of how they will continue to respond when it comes to the eyes. you see at least in the short term need, all right, many things. so that might have been challenging reporting from a mom just to remind to we are reporting from outside israel after being banned by these radio authorities from working that a now to hendo could have a who's in the out balance in central gaza. and he and obviously there are immediate safety concerns for many, many people in the gaza strip. but is there any reaction, a tool to these developments of the international criminal court?
7:11 pm
well unfortunately, no, because the policies are not even know that this is the prosecution arrest war. were even issued today because they were out of the internet and they had been disconnected for more than 7 months. but how much responded, and they were very strict about the fact that at this comes very late, 7 months later, as the is ready at voices have been committing thousands of crimes against the policy news in the past. some been months. how must also the nouns and condemn the equalization of the palestinians and the is there any forces? they also stressed on the fact that there should be more arrest warrants against a more is there a new face? it shows and all the is ready. officials on the ground, but when it comes to the palestinians surrounding me in a box of courtyards, they don't really care about anything because they do not trust the i c,
7:12 pm
c. they have very bad experience and they believe that there's nothing going to change anything on the ground and talking a hand about what's happening on the ground while you are talking. we are looking on our screens that seems of off to the devastation again in the law here. can you shed some light on what's happening on the ground to remind me the well, what we have is 14 members of the fluid family were killed in the past. our as the is there any air strikes where you're targeting a home in the body of refuge account? nothing of the godless trip upon his tending baby died. ways in the nursery department and come out and do on hospitalized due to the oxygen system failure. posing grades, danger to the hospital is really cypress, fired the another in go, it's of come out edwin's hospital and out to the target to the 5th floor of the hospital. also, a pa does to mean girl was killed in it and is right in the are tell her you after
7:13 pm
the targeted us who is a bad yes. and is there any forces that has deepens or it in ground invasion, reaching the fall and the bar is the neighborhood which is a little bit into the center of rough or, and the is ready strikes. i'm targeted, a group of people in yep. not comp and not interrupt law and slides policy means were injured from the class cop to the end of all of this happened in the past hour, and it's very obvious that it's escalating and air strikes. and is there any art under it did not stop targeting the policy renews across the godless trip from the north to this house. and all of that, of course, happening despite the threats of arrest ones being issued for benjamin netanyahu and other senior figures. we didn't have mass as well. and oh, could we live in debt? how about money? thanks for your update. let's go to the new at the, the u. n. rather in new york. and gabriel is on the joins us from the office. the
7:14 pm
gabriel, a huge amount of diplomatic interest of what might to transpire the international criminal. cool, but has there been any reaction from officials? a a very little to almost done quite frankly. and i can't, i can tell you, it's not for lack of trying on our end. it's just simply that investors simply do not want to touch this complicated issue right now. and we know that as a fact, because the security council met to 10 am local time is a issue about ukraine and related to the i. c. c. unrelated to kaiser. we waited outside the security council chambers as diplomats from the 15. a security council members came in and almost all of them simply ignored or shouted questions about the reaction to the i. c. c decision, whether be china, japan or other u. k as well. now, the motors ambassador to the un, they are a,
7:15 pm
an elected 10 member, a non permanent member, if you will. she did stop. she basically said, we support the i, c. c, we support cream cod. let's let the process play out before we make any pronunciations on this. so for, but the bottom line is that i think is but you're probably getting the sense of most people here at the un, but few are wanting to speak about it. probably because of the arrest warrants have not officially been announced yet. it's just a matter of cream con, uh, putting in the application to the judges for potential arrest warrants. and so that's why i think you see a lot of diplomats simply not wanting to touch this yet. because of that now we haven't heard from the un officially as well. the press secretary for the secretary general, the spokesperson for the secretary general is about to do his daily noon briefing in the next few minutes. but it's unlikely you'll hear any official announcements on this from the u. n. given the i,
7:16 pm
c. c is not officially part of the un while the un works and collaborates with the i, c. c. it's a totally separate judicial body. all right, gabriel. many thanks explaining all of that gabriel is on the of the un. is still a hit on al jazeera lighting tay is sworn in, is the new president of taiwan, the hello. we will say some lovely weather coming in across the korean peninsula. and japan clear skies coming for him. a little heavier of high pressure, just starting to nestle this way for you. so this low just remedies the side of haunt you. i will pull out to the pipe of follow the line of cloud, right. the way down across taiwan into southern china was a more, very heavy rain full here. and there are further heavy in front of the showers as

7:20 pm
you see is fine. allow, is attending the integration of 2 dams. on sunday, near the border with us a by john, along with that countries, presidents yolanda leah shaw, seattle. this damn can provide very safe transit for goods for passengers and taurus, given how seriously the work is being carried out. i think it will take less time than originally estimated, which was almost 3 years then reports began to emerge that the president's helicopter had to make what was referred to as a hard landing that they'd been an incident. finally, it was confirmed via croft had crashed in bad weather. the on board president tri easy foreign minister who's saying a meat of the lucky on a provincial governor and the security details about the helicopter went down in a forest in a remote mountainous region. near the village of ozi in the east as

7:22 pm
the issue is when you're taking off and the weather was clear and then you would mount, when this rugged uh forest liked rain. uh, there could be farmed developing areas that you don't expect far to develop, but the age of the helicopter may also have quite a role. the us manufactured bell helicopter had been in service since 1971. wasted and sanctions have made it difficult for a run to obtain spirit pots or new aircraft, is already what i'm the is the supreme leader, ayatollah ali. how many has declared 5 days of moaning? according to runs constitution? a council comprised of the speaker of parliament chief justice and 1st vice president has 50 days to cool elections for the next president. mike, level l g 0. i'll expect your ass is an independent aviation. i have a list of consultants. he says it runs aging fleet, weather conditions and all the fights has led to the fatal crash. as is often the
7:23 pm
case, the net cost accidents, it is a variety of different contributors that come together ultimately to pulling that final outcome rather than just $1.00 single thing. so it is likely that when you combine something like deteriorating, all direct costing needs of maintenance with something like poll web, which can of course complicate even the much origin area flight. nevermind that in a region that is mountainous for example. then then you quickly begin to see how it get and that risk level is increasing. helicopter and trouble by helicopter is a generally less se. then traveling on a fixed wing, the commercial aircraft, or private across. so ready, you go to a slightly increased risk that and as i say with the backdrop of having the all just fleet across, under the us sanctions, they only were able to import new across into iran during that brief period in the fall and rec ministration. whether you're on euclid, you was asked to add,
7:24 pm
boss managed to get some new jets and some of the stakeholders. and then of course, donald trump at the present time, pulled the plug and new ron's that and across the street it continues to the chair right now. so as i say, it's likely to be a contributor, every one of these things, the and that's what the investigation will probably be focused on. ukraine's coffee city and its surrounding villages have been hit by a series of ariel strikes as russian forces pushed into the region. john holman, was in the village of drug test, got loads of just off to a russian missile attack. to catch good lives of was a quiet village, just know for par keith, where people came to fish until 11. am this sunday the me so ripped through the country club home the like sure. as we run into valentina wondering the road outside we book what's happening in the hole for a fragment. he's my head here a little bit my blog congealed. it smells at that. then i called my husband,
