of our comments, all of our red lines were time and time disregarded, as were the proposals of number of other delegations. this was some kind of empty rhetorical. exercise rather than normal work document, the american product is exceedingly politicized, the sole purpose of which is to help to uh play into play to the voters, to throw them a bone in the form of some kind of a mention of a cease fire in gaza, and to establish the us's political ambitions in the region through the establish. ment of terrorist labels and to ensure the impunity of israel whose crimes in the draft are not even assessed. i wish to draw attention to the following: the us draft contains an effective green light for israel to mount a

military operation in rafah. at the very least, the authors try to make it to such that nothing would prevent. western jerusalem from continuing their brutal cleansing of the south of the gaza strip, and what is washington actually trying to achieve? we have already stated that we will no longer tolerate pointless resolutions which do not contain a call for a ceasefire which lead us to nowhere. this draft should not pass with the majority of the membership. iran's foreign minister says the tragedy in gaza has demonstrated to the world that the issue of human rights including those of women and children is mere political plaything for the west. in a phone call with leader of the palestinian islamic jihad movement said

south africans have held events throughout the country, marking national human rights day with a particular focus on the plight of the palestinians of gaza. in cape town, people from different walks of life participated in a pilgrimage depicting the track that gozans have had to make as israel's war machine has swept through the strip, hasan syria reports. hundreds of people have engaged in a 41 kilometer pilgrimage, symbolically depicting the length the gaza strip and a track that scores of palestinians have been forced to make due to the us-backed daily campaign of genocide against them. the event has been organized by a collective of christian bodies. the organizers say it is important. to demonstrate that christian zinism does not represent them, the church has been very complicit within this genocide and within um

palestinian suppression more generally, and because of that is not condemning what they're doing, is not recognizing what they're doing as ethnic cleansing and genocide and not speaking out, and we wanted to challenge that narrative and challenge that stance and show an expression of solidarity, show that that... not the only thing coming out of the church. the demonstration also coincides with south africa's commemoration of the sharpfall massacre when the apartite regime gun down 69 protesters in what is recognized as a turning point in the struggle for liberation. for those who participated, the palestinian suffering resonates deeply. and what i saw today in my own as i walked you, because it's a pilgrimage, reflecting, i said to myself, um, you know, i, i, i feel... my feet you know burning, i feel uh this this old legs not, not not not moving as it should, but it's nothing in comparison what what people

are experiencing. the south african public is still sleep and they must start waking up to see what israel is doing, but what they do there, they can also come and do anywhere else in the world. i'm a proud jew, i'm not a zionist and never have. have been and i think that what the the betnyahu government is doing is actually moral genocide, whether they call it legal, i don't whether it fits legally, but it's morally a genocide and i'm appled, i'm heartbroken as somebody who's lived through apart, we have seen this before, we should know better. the gaza seesfire pilgrimage coincided with the somber christian period of length and sacrifice and resilience were recurring themes programs pointed to as they attempted to... symbolically walk in the footsteps of gazens. the gaza cease fire march is another example the human desolve for justice, and as palestinians endure the latest israeli

aggression for almost six months now, the people of the world will only intensify their commitment for palestinian liberation. passan city, press tv, cape town. the worst terror attack in russia in years, at least 60. people are killed and 145 wounded in a shooting attack claimed by daesh terrorists. now the death tool is expected to rise as dozens are in serious condition. attack took place when gumman in combat fatigues opened fire and detonated explosives a major concert hall on outskirts of moscow. in a telegram post, the day terrorist group said its gunmen
