7:35 pm
anymore, it's only me and the children left of sitting here, and we don't know what will happen to us. do you want special? reporter on the right to food says those countries that are currently supplying weapons to israel are complicit in genocide and starvation in the besieg gaza strip. michael fakhly made the remarks in an interview with press tv website. he said that the israely regime not only declared a complete blockade on gaza, but restricted and denied humanitarian relief after waging a war there. the un official accused israel of intentionally starving gazans that has resulted in full-scale famin in the bessieg palestinian territory. fakri said is forces or israel regime forces have also been targeting aid seekers and convoys carrying humanitarian assistance. he called for a permanent sease fire to prevent famon and to ensure unhindered humanitarian aid into gaza. the restriction aid has created dire conditions in the territory that has been under crippling israelly sie for over 17
7:36 pm
years. the ship carrying almost 200 tons of food aid is making slow progress towards the besieg gaza strip. the mission is. part of pilot project open new sear out of aid to a population on the brink of famon. we discussed that issue in our news review program. let's take a listen. we're watching press tv's news review where we look deeper into some of the top stories of the day. on this segment of the program, a vessel loaded with food aid is gradually heading towards gaza amid growing calls to deal with. humanitarian conditions in a besieged palestinian stripped, the vessel sent by a spanish ngo was towing a barge with 200 tons of food aid, it set sail from a port in cyprus. on tuesday meanwhile cypriot foreign minister said, second aid ship with the
7:37 pm
bigger capacities being prepared in uh larnika port, israel's bombardment and ground offensive reduced much of gaz's infrastructure to rubble. the on continues unabated on wednesday. day the main agency in gaz is set an israeli strike hit one of its warehouses in the southern city of rafa killing at least one staff member, the dire food shortages causing malnutrition and dehydration and gas have already claimed 27 lives, most of them children. international aid agencies say the current aid entry cannot address the dire humanitarian situation in gaza. joining us on this edition of the news review we have uh journalist and geopolitics expert leila hatum joining us from the lebanese capital beirot and also we have journalist and podcaster esha krishna swami joining us from st. petersburg, welcome to the program to the both of you. let's start off with miss hatum in uh beirot, give us
7:38 pm
your perspective on this um vessel that has set sail from cyprus to uh get aid into gaza. of course we know the dire humanitarian situation there will not be uh handled in any way and will not be remedied by uh this means of aid delivery, international aid agencies have already said uh that even the current aid entry that is getting into gaza cannot address the dier humanitarian situation in gaza. unpack that for us please. well as you know basically uh there is total maritime siege imposed by the israelis against all of gaza, all of gaza strip and it's basically shoreline so i want how this ship will be able to get in and if it gets in the get the green light from the israelies to do so six months after this war had started after over 10000 victims between killed and or injured mostly women and children and then you have starving people in the dozens dying and now
7:39 pm
they decide to send a flotella why didn't they do it before that makes me question the matter however any aid that reaches gaza especially north gaza where the israel is ban the... of aid over there where they bombard the convoys of trucks of humanitarian aid coming in and they kill people in the hundreds doing so and recently they started bombarding the air the aid that's air dropped by the planes as well that makes me wonder why they would allow a ship to go in that's the first thing is it because of the port and why would those private entities move now i'm not questioning the intentions but after seeing all the mistakes that have been happening on the ground i have to draw a question mark absolutely uh miss chris. swami uh let's get your um perspective on this issue of aid why is uh aid delivery being impeded in the first place if the israelizes have stated that they want to uh in their words dismantle the hamas military machine and the capabilities of the resistance in
7:40 pm
gaza then why is aid not being allowed in uh to reach uh palestinian civilians in gaza women and children uh this is of course violation of the geneva convention and it is collective punishment of every single man, woman, innocent man, woman and child living in gaza. multiple statements by israeli government officials, their intention has nothing to do with hamas or hamas militants, their intention is to have settlers resettle in gaza, so um, what, so this is another form of israel using aid as a bargaining chip in order to get people cleared out of gaza so that more settlers can move in, so it is a form of ethnic cleansing, and top of it you have israeli settlers who are by the government who are also blocking the aid um, which shows that it is um the dehumanization
7:41 pm
and propaganda of dehumanization runs very deep in israel's society, it's not just among the elites, but it seems to have trickle down to many people, causing them to actually block aid, food and water to people within gaza. all right, we're going to leave it there, allow me to thank my guest, journalist and geopolitic expert uh tom joining us from the lebanese capital beirot and thanks to journalist and podcaster esha krishna swami joining us from st. petersburg, with that it brings us to an end here on this edition of the news review, but stick around there's plenty more to come here on press tv. is climate change real? is smoking cigarettes really hazardous, do ddt insecticides really

7:43 pm

7:44 pm
neutralized mean that the man who carried out the stabbing was shot and killed, the identity of this palestinian man is still unknown, the israeli soldiers have killed since the 7th of october over 430 palestinians here in the occupied west bay and there are palestinian experts. warning that the situation might even might even go to very violent let's say turn especially that the israeli military is threatening the palestinians with more strict measures with more accurition and especially that it's the holy month of ramadan and palestinians from the occupied bank will not be allowed to enter al quods to pray in alaqamas. there are new reports of hisbollah resistance movement and the israeli military exchanging fire
7:45 pm
along the southern border of lebanon. according to reports, the israely military has targeted southern lebanese towns of nakura, tarharfa, among others. there are no reports of possible casualties so far. in return, reports suggest that hisbollah resistance movements has targeted the occupied sheba farms as well as israeli military sites south of the lebanese border. the resistance movements and the israel military. have been engaged in exchange of fire since the regime began on the gaza strip in october. hisballah has vo to support palestinian resistance fighters, battling israeli aggression by making the regime forces. fight at another front, thousands of iranian legal experts and attorneys have joined the global movement of lawyers who have volunteered to file a genocide complaint against israel at the international criminal court, referred to as the army of lawyers for palestine, the initiative has so far mobilized more than 200 thousand lawyers worldwide. gisumi shahmadi has the details.
7:46 pm
unprecedented global movement gaining momentum. initiated by veteran french lawyer and academic, the army of lawyers for palestine now has over 200 th00 lawyers of different nationalities on board and still counting as he travels from country to country to promote his grassroots campaign. we are witnessing new movement in the world. the atrocities committeed in gaza are no longer. only matter that concerns muslim countries, far from it. here we have a french lawyer that has started an initiative that brought together 300 lawyers from across the world in less than 10 days and that number grew rapidly to 100,000 and now with the mou that we have signed at the iran judiciary bar, that number will be rising to 50,000
7:47 pm
lawyers. with iran on board, you can also expect lawyers from iraq, syria and lebanon to join in... as well, and an optimistic gil de ver, who has already filed a complaint of genocide against israel with the international criminal court, demanding an arrest warrant for top israeli politicians, including prime minister benjamin netanyahu. this is going to be tough battle without a doubt, but in just few months, all these lawyers have joined us. this kind of solidarity is unprecedented. we have never seen so many lawyers join. for one purpose in history, so this is a great sign, because it won't be enough to tell a judge, look, there's no many of us, instead we have to be able to defend palestine with strong legal arguments and by the looks of things, we have solid base for that. a south african fellow companion, shedding light on the legal
7:48 pm
aspects of the matter, while explaining how the case brought to the international court of justice by south africa is all... also paving the way, the icj order specifically spoke about creating a humanitarian corridor and humanitarian assistance to the people of gaza. the united states and israel were saying that the word seesfire did not exist in the icj order, but this is not true because the humanitarian aid on the ground at scale cannot be delivered without an effective and immediatefire. it is very clear that we are witnessing a birth of new age, new movement of justice siking people from all over the world is emerging, and that is why while the south african government files a complaint, we see a grassroots movement also taking shape, very unique one that has brought together lawyers who are seeking justice in the battle between good and evil,
7:49 pm
and in the words of these legal experts, this goal is not far from reach, these lawyers believe. believe that we live in a new era in which this new global initiative will eventually lead to justice for palestinians. gisum shah ahmadi press tv, tehran. iran, china and russia have officially concluded the joint naval drills which were held in the iranian territorial waters in the sea of oman. our course, mon in the southeastern city of konarak had more details. um. there were different operations, it was uh shooting at night and then they practice rescue operations, rescuing uh captives in um a ship stolen by pirates um as well as uh extinguishing uh a ship that is under fire and uh various other uh let's say operations
