9:03 pm
happened? you know, the, i think maybe the important part is actually the fact that the israel, the defense forces and they admitted opening a fire at the crowd. they said that there was a tank and soldiers that opened fire at the palestinians. they were unarmed, if they would have been armed, who would have heard about it? so we're talking about opening fire a towards a group of about a student. and they say that the distance between this force and these palestinians was tens of meters. so they weren't that close nevertheless, the idea of said that they posed a threat as so these, the soldiers were talking about the around 4 o'clock a, it was dark, it was the night conditions. they felt that they were under a thread. they opened the fire and they. busy they claim that they only have
9:04 pm
been but a when we go to a she for hospital, we see that the numbers, of course, are my share higher. so i think if you would want to investigate, you would have to go to she far and, and the see how many were wounded from the, from that the shoot, the and we are just looking now what footage released by the idea of the events for you is i mean, how much does this underscore what the white house has called? the diary humanitarian needs in gauze. can you tell us what the situation is like there currently it was. the situation is not less than the catastrophe. ready we have the account of a 6 incident to die for mer, mountain nutrition, and, and the diarrhea. we know that people have been living for the animal seed in some
9:05 pm
places. there is food, but the prices are so high because of the shortage. so people couldn't afford buying the basic food. and the no doubt that a food has to reach the gaza strip and not only from the south like these trucks, but also from the north. and the since as early as now occupying the northern part of the gaza strip for a few months, it should be taking responsibility for the well being of they said population. i did differently as the possibility to let the in of food to these areas. and this latest incidents in gaza, city and joe biden, the west president has said that this will further complicate efforts to reach a ceasefire in your view. have the prospects of a deal deteriorated here? once again. yes, the for sure. because as well,
9:06 pm
the mid the least, the images as a come from a she felt house, but the from the bodies that were carried away from the sea on don't keep cards, are circulating a on all the media, all the television, this stations. there's a lot of angry in the arab, the world. we've heard a very strong language from the jordan. and egypt is saying that they condemned these really massacre. also saudi arabia as use very, very strong language. and in these circumstances, there is a lot of anger towards the israel, and this will definitely make these a talks in, in the how and cut the more difficult the active this year has become a polluted by the distance. so that's all, thank you so much for,
9:07 pm
for providing us with that context. that is some results with joining us from jerusalem. so to me is riley's have been killed and a shooting or a settlement in the occupied west bank as well as military's that'd be a legit gunman was killed by security forces after opening fire at a gas station violence between palestinians, settlers and these really army has spiked in the west bank since the start of the war and gaza. we do want to bring you up to speed now with some other world news headlines. the editor in chief of the independent russian newspaper know via gazette, has been detained and find in moscow. the paper said survey sako off has been accused of discrediting russia's military circle of took charge of the paper in september 2023. when his predecessor was named a foreign agents by the russian authorities wouldn't move a new pro. as a prominent opposition, politician has been killed and the central african nation of chad. the country state prosecutors, as guy zillow, died on wednesday during an army assault on his parties. headquarters. there has
9:08 pm
been unrest in shadow ahead of the presidential election set for may and june. and allies of alexei novalis say russian authorities are blocking their efforts to bury him. the opposition leader died in prison on february 16. and his funeral is that for friday, the volley supporters, a funeral directors have received threats. and if they cannot hire a hers to transport his body. russian president vladimir putin has warranted nato countries that they risk nuclear war if they sent troops to ukraine. they made the threat as he delivered his annual state of the nation, addressed the head of an election in which he is the only serious candidate and boots and went on to say that he would be stationing more soldiers and rushes west close to new nato members. finland and sweden, excuse me, for the flat demand, puts in his given his annual state of the union address just 2 weeks before the
9:09 pm
presidential election. despite facing no meaningful position via the announce social reform under 10000000000 euro over the whole process health care system. but the war and ukraine still dominates. earlier this week, the french president emanuel mackerel refused to roll out the west, sending troops to ukraine from taking a stop warning from boots in the minneapolis one second. so when you more they should eventually understand that we also have wave fitness and they know it's really tight just city now myself in weapons that can hit targets on their territory. a pretty doing everything that the waste is coming out. you know what they threaten the world with. it can result in a conflict with the use of nuclear waste in some good idea. and they for the destruction of civilization. i'm not sure, but when you're searching and civil is that some of the nato countries including lift to a new product, the french position,
9:10 pm
but the german chancellor or left. charles has rejected any idea of direct nato involvement in the war, and ukraine not to east of nato is not, and will not be party to the will. that remains the case. we do not want to rush as war against ukraine was to become a war between russia and nato and feel we agree on this was own all allies. this also means no german participation in the war and with no sign of any laptop in the war. and boots in heading for a quarter of a century and power relations between russia and the west are likely to remain tense for the foreseeable future. how seriously should we take proof into the threats of nuclear war? i asked the w is eastern europe edit or roman contract though, as well. i think we should take everything that comes from blog demand pointing seriously, especially when it comes to flips like today. i'm on the other hand,
9:11 pm
there is no immediate. so that's always a new class conflict between russia and nato. so what he was saying is just be careful of what you do. but he's been saying this before. the russian position is like the former president executive has been threatening that nearly just every couple of weeks. why it's important it's, it's important because this signal came from a chrome. the suggestion of this is something new or i should probably didn't expect it. but i think most important is the signaling off site and then the west with a new cable. there are some preston brushing authorities are trying to stop the device from helping ukraine. and this, this intimidation, each box to a certain extent, becomes there are set of sudden types of weapons like long range missiles. the device is not ready to deliver. so it sounds like using face and does indeed raise the stakes for the west as it considers how much support to continue providing ukraine as well. it's really hard to tell if it, if it's really right,
9:12 pm
it raises the stakes. i'm skeptical about it because it's not really new of what he has been has saying. um, what is new is the suggestion of my chrome, but this is present my chromebook. this is a theoretical question of the moment. nobody's talking about sending troops to ukraine in the near future. so when the conditions remain, as they are in this war, will be probably no need for the western countries to do that. but they might change a few grains, thoughts losing. um, anyway, the stakes are relatively high as well. um at this moment anyway, because russia is waging a conventional with an open end and is not going to stop and this was the signal by president put in. so if no one is talking about about this seriously at this point, why did we then hear german chancellor all our faults there? i go out of his way to make it very clear that no german troops would participate in fighting in ukraine as well. um, the obvious reason is because brandon, my grand brought the top uh salt,
9:13 pm
had to respond. there is an unofficial rivalry between germany and france in europe as to major economic and military power as um, so charles had to respond, but he's not the only one. i just remember prison by the end of the united states also has to roll out several times sending troops to ukraine. so why schultz and barton do this, and i'll be your pin partition as well. uh because um this is dangerous and can't jump. so salts have to set it up as well, so many times. so nobody wants a direct confrontation between russia and nato. so everybody's very, very careful. but that's why and i'm some experts also believed that a sholtes remarks might have something to do with the coming elections in germany and in europe to the european parliament and some original elections in germany. and um this, this uh idea or shoulds, no troops. this, of course, resonates with parts of german public, not only in germany, but in other parts of europe and the world. so nobody wants these more to escalate
9:14 pm
and some experts believe that this could be an attempt to buy solves also to maybe use it in the future elections induction campaign because his policy is not doing well in the polls. well, thank you so much for, for providing that context for us. that is our eastern europe editor run and gosh, ranko and ukraine is warning against, quote, destructive external interference in mole, dove as break way of region of trends. and this trio, that is, after pro russia separate, has their ask most count for so called protection. the self proclaimed republic is a tiny sliver of land located between ukraine, angel, dover and broke away from all drove i during the collapse of the soviet union in the early 19 ninety's. most of the territory is russian speaking and many hold russian citizenship tensions between moldova and russia have been rising. ever since moscow launched is full scale invasion of ukraine. a terrace pole, the capital of trans new stream on the surface all appears calm. this despite
9:15 pm
appeals from officials here for protection from russia. meanwhile, in the mold oven capital, there's nervousness your new material to. i'm afraid that the will, will start to see a tutoring or a low diverse, a weak country from the point of view is the military. we have no resources my tech who we probably will receive help from other countries, but i don't think it will help us at all. because when not even in the european union founders speak with others who product the authorities in transmission area, approximately deciding the fate of old over architect by addressing coaching and the state duma, with the request to be accepted into russia. and if you put anything called this in fact, is a declaration of war against the republic of moldova. i see there is both parts of
9:16 pm
the republic i'm a little in russia, president vladimir putin made no mention of transitory street in his annual state of the nation. addressed, however, his foreign ministry, spokes person indeed comment on speculation. russia was planning to an ex, the territory inside. although nothing whatever needs a stubborn need trying to turn to republican to return the 2nd ukraine country to the most of the majority of them will. jovan population, and in general, what apparently without thinking about the consequences of this for the country and for the region as a whole unit. so, but nato insists russia is modeling. it was yeah. so i was, there seems like they put, pressure is using all the leave was of influence of its disposal to stop the european parts of the republic of mold over it is obvious from trans history is a form of pressure on mold. the autocratic, it is a political declaration to inflame the pre electro climate to know the speaking at
9:17 pm
a summit of leaders from south eastern europe, the mold open president tried to reassure her fellow citizens and called for solidarity with neighboring ukraine. most of the ladies safe today, ukraine needs to be supported. ukraine is keeping us to day, peaceful and safe. hopeful message in a country overshadowed by the proximity of its neighbour russia. i spoke earlier to mitchell barber, a freelance journalist in moldova, who was in france, ministry up today. he spoke to people there about these latest events, the people interest, the st express, their feelings of hold up until this morning up until the speech from law school. they were quite excited about yesterday's vote and they feel as they call, isaac will say, quote, harassed and oppressed by the regime in case you know,
9:18 pm
and this is due to the economic dec station reforms imposed by case like you should know. so basically every transmission business now has to be wp to moldova, i think they haven't done for the past 3 decades. so this is basically the root of this problem, if you will. also, they feel like they have been neglected, like you should know. and the russian identity is not protected enough or not sustained enough in moldova. and are their concerns from a most opens about this appeal from pro russian separate tests to most go. and of course, everyone here in case you know that i spoke with throughout the day of express, the concern expressed the worries of that the possible succession from 1st missed ya. a possible declaration of independence or to join rochelle, or to ask for protection from russia as they voted yesterday could flare up the pension. now you have to remember the transmission areas and the mold opens for in
9:19 pm
the early ninety's in the very short but intense that emotionally deeply wounded uh cold, sick, pure 1991. 1992 when both sides fault and that's what truss needs to be on. the appear as a self proclaimed republic. so this village generation remembers that in another generation who grew up in the shuttle of that war. so obviously everyone is worried not to mention the fact that they see what's happening and you crate in the neighboring country. and the few that russia is getting closer and closer conditional with every day, with every declaration, with every intent of protecting as they say, the russian identity model. so in your view, what are the chances of a larger regional conflict here as well short term? i don't think what happened yesterday and russell could ignite a war if you asked me. that's because logistics is very hard. russia at the moment
9:20 pm
can not send more troops into moldova already, to transfer these to a better sense. so it's nice to has a board with ukraine that's been shot since month to month 3 of the war. and also the only way to gain access these through the airport, the gauge and some sort of special operation. but the model ones have already has the claim on for a couple of cool attends last last year. so at the moment we cannot, i cannot see myself a possibility of escalating into a full sledge war. but at the same time, you have to remember that interest in this area, you have almost 2000 russian troops of the so called peacekeepers weren't there. and we'll go but doesn't have a army that's well prepared, low train to face even a smoke on pigeon over russian troops at the moment. and that could ultimately expand wrong. also we see that you bring up with these pressure preferred method of
9:21 pm
engaging in this war and you crate these through the files and drones. and that's always the danger to move those off as a very little to no air defense system. at the moment here show barbara in moldova for us. thank you so much for that update. and we can take a look now what some other story is making headlines around the world. the west supreme court has agreed to decide whether donald trump is immune from prosecution . it is a victory for him as it delays his trial on charges that he conspired to overturn the 2020 election. trump lawyers argue he shouldn't be prosecuted for actions taken while he was president. a new law makers have been sworn into pockets. don's parliament is the 1st time the national assembly has met since an election 3 weeks ago. that was marred by allegations a vote breaking. a new government is facing an economic crisis and security concerns. and you vent a star paul plug buy has been banned from football for 4 years. a midfielder tested

9:23 pm
but it's key. 60 can't. how much is outside of wall? so people from this region like to think of it as your biggest orchard, mateusz, the policies family has been growing apples here for a century. here we go. is different though for bar it's probably a deal if i pose like gala golden, delicious, or something. but business is tough these days and mateusz is unhappy about e u roles and that's addressing climate change and the cheaper agricultural impulse from ukraine that will coming into the polish markets nicholas case, i don't need to as it polish pharma speaking for myself, but it comes to the green d a in the oldest book received the actions of the european officials. i'm certainly concerned i'm on could even say more than concern typically only, and i don't remember the bodies in was number of uses. and those of these issues has been growing in poland. it's seen from is block traffic from ukraine, that the board is. and this week they staged this big demonstration. and also
9:24 pm
one of our main point of this to try and stop the import of food products from ukraine. this is the 1st and the most important point. unfortunately, the government doesn't want to talk to us. that's why we came door. so we want to show the power of the polish farmers because the farming community has been mobilizing online limitations on facebook. groups with other farm is in his region and beyond. but the government says it is on into it as a possible russian infiltration in the process through social media. your social kilometers. uh, i'm sure that protein and as people react to it in europe, and they take advantage of such a protest along. yeah, it's enough to take your phone and start reading comments from the complex all facebook and phone see if it's before, even on my own phone. a see how many comments i made to the point by the fake accounts a month of on this use. the sort of concepts of sites on the independent observe is
9:25 pm
also concerned with russian propaganda doesn't know we're conscious pulling fluid is they are, is facing our novices, our social media, our public discussions and public debate. looking into it rather go statements, statements with play with our emotion authors. these are investigating some anti ukraine and prove russia slogans that have been spotted and recent demonstrations. but tell you save those on, not just say the form is not, there is no i didn't post it on. you certainly know polish fama who can, as well as i believe, is it over that they're going to run, you will make demands that directly attached to the ukraine and support team i think we own the best push it out and you know, uh okay, you know, just did i own a patina. poland has been one, a few cranes biggest back is in the us. but the issue with the farm is,
9:26 pm
is causing tensions between keys and also and changing gears. we have a success story from snow. we scans in navia scientists in norway have boosted the numbers of rare arctic foxes. climate change had left the endangered species struggling to find enough to eat in the wilds. the population was down to around just $40.00. feeding stations have lifted the account to more than 500. without the program, the animals were facing extinction, but the research was warm that it is still too early to say that this b c's has been saved. so just before we go, let's get a reminder of our top stories at this hour. how much are on health ministry and gaza says more than 100 people have been killed in a crowd waiting for an a delivery is rarely, officials say, most of those killed died and a crush to get 8, but they have also acknowledge that troops fired their weapons believing some of
