4:08 pm
closer to 4 kinds of you and the solve to 14. yes. and this is unusual, but the person who meets video might be open might be us. so it's hard to say that the us and accepts it while that's just common sense. and the cycle he didn't top wounded pride, it between himself and the marsh. when did practically himself with this, i took the deal. i must say i'm so please let you know, it seems to be on his way to illustrate my to under this. thank you very much for talking with this stuff. was human rights were up in a we apologize for the quality of the line we had there. now let's take a quick look at a few other stories making headlines around the world. today. the international criminal cortez issued arrest warrants for the former russian defense minister, sergey sugar, and the military's chief of general staff bodily. good, awesome. all the warrants are for alleged more crimes in ukraine. they joined

4:10 pm
around $63000.00 men are correspondent in jerusalem. tanya cramer told us more about this landlord court ruling as well. i think it's, it's unique and uh for many different reasons. uh, it is, uh, it has been years years of political and legal battle. and now the high court of justice has made the decisions on 9 judges. where for them made an actually decisions not just a temporary arrangement, but you've seen in the past years. and they have basically said that the policy of allow orthodoxy, shiva students of not a being drafted to the armies actually illegal discrimination and that should not be allowed. they also said that she was that would, that these are religious schools should not receive cause government funding if the students are not in listing. so this is not an actual ruling that we are seeing.
4:11 pm
also, the conservative a judges on the panel was in favor of this. and this of course comes at a time of more and there is a consensus here in israel that the burden should be shared and that everybody here should be drafted to the army. now this morning also says however, that because it's very complex, it give some time to the government to actually implement this ruling. speaking of the government. so we're saying that this ruling could lead to the collapse. so the ness and yahoo government, uh, how likely is that as well? absolutely. because um, you know, if the government now goes ahead to implement this, we could expect that you will get a run into problems with the us or orthodox parties, office coordination, or government as well as you might see, it must protest by you. she's a students that are certainly don't want to go to the army, and this is of course, no also especially problematic for
4:12 pm
a prime minister benjamin netanyahu after the centrist benny dunn's left, also the a will covenant, and the government. however, he would also run into trouble if he doesn't to implement it because it's not just a secular liberal is really is who want to see the us for orthodox of being a drafted. it's also part of his face, the national nationalist, religious writing that might want to see uh, the also orthodox drafted. so uh, you know, so whatever happens next, i mean the government could also, uh try to, uh, put some that just listening to overview this ruling by the high court of justice. but it's not quite clear if that would then go back to the high court of justice and then whether this could then satisfy, you know, the high court and also they also also talks parties. 20, thank you very much. our correspondent tony kramer there in jerusalem. meanwhile,

4:17 pm
here. this time we see a opposite. it's a policy. we understand that this government eh, sees a conflagration, not as a risk. it's an opportunity to allows it to carry out more and more violence and drastic measures. she says that's because this tied for right nationalist each more thing here is minister of national security in charge of the police force needed to force demolitions to jerusalem, deputy mayor or a king mr. bank. if you're is doing the right thing, we are not demolishing enough in east to the center. as you wait for the bulldozer to come and demolish his home, tells me what his plans are. if they demolish the house we will pitch attend and sit here. we will not leave, i'll have them. so i handed to chris in the what the name dorothy us now to kenya,
