5:03 pm
very hiring again because we're seeing the comparable levels of killings network in the initial space. so we've seen reports that people are being admitted. scores of people are being admitted with bullet injuries. so my sources underground still say that protests are remain armed with only stick, swing shots, and breaks. and we must remember that bundle. this is a country where the security forces enjoying almost total monopoly on the use of firearms. but there are reports suggesting that ruling party activists like to bundle the shop to lead have access to fly around to about story concerning as well . so we will of course, only know the extent to which unlawful force was used once we've had a chance to verify that for now, the reports suggest, again, uh, you know, an increase in the bloodshed that we've witnessed as earlier as well. and we urge an immediate end to the use of this unlawful force. understood, the government had promised to investigate the pass cracked down of police. has

5:05 pm
have now seen lots of students being arrested and you know, so, so, so there are, this is the match, the rest that we are currently seeing. also effects the people's lack of, you know, a trust in an independent investigation. what i'm hearing is there is not a reservoir of trust there at all. a prime minister shake has seen a requested protest or sit with, with, with her for constructive dialogue. is there a chance for reconciliation, or are we beyond that point? as well as stepped words of the protest? leaders are anything to go by. they've set the time for dialogue has ended. i mean so they are quite adamant under one time demand. in fact, reconciliation would probably only be possible if a neutral, you know, arbiter kind of oversaw the process does. in fact, just to date, as long as you never stick. a teacher's network published a demand for an in term of governance mechanism that would be comprised of the students,

5:10 pm
negotiation seemingly stalled intentions rising, that's looking increasingly unlikely for now the w's. tanya kramer is in jerusalem and joins us now, tonya, as israel readies itself, or retaliatory attacks from iran orange proxies. we understand that in a meeting today, probably ministry benjamin netanyahu told his cabinet that israel was prepared for any scenario, any sense what they're expecting as well. i mean, we don't know exactly what that valuation would look like. we know for certain that iran and has people have said that they have all to retaliate or we don't know the scope. we don't know the timing. we don't know what targets they're going to choose . but the different scenarios that are being discussed in is rather one of them. you can take it from statements from avon, you know, officials, but also from the speech from has the, has on us got along with said that, you know, indicated that strikes could reach much deeper into as well,

5:12 pm
a retaliation. so it's a very, very great moment of uncertainty here. antonia, at this point, it's clear israel has to worry about multiple friends. can they deal with that? i mean, probably minister benjamin netanyahu stated a send it over again. you know what he always says, that is where it is prepared for any scenario. and somehow with these strikes in the roots, but also into around all there is one has not taken officially responsibility for that last one. you know, it shows that somehow he is willing to intensify this conflict. i mean, we've seen those cross border attacks. it was some sort of equation or, and were sort of contained between has spell on israel. but this seems to have a change now. and it sends a message to iran and it's all eyes that is rather, is not afraid to open another front, but is what it needs its allies, especially the u. s. they have said they move some assets to the region,
