countries. the a very warm welcome to you. this is on the international with the latest world news update, as always is great to have you with us. we start the, our in gaza. where are these 15 people have reportedly been killed in thousands, more wounded, and an overnight strike by as well on the enclaves. a southern most city of rough uh, with us as the id has changed to have hit a 150 targets in 24 hours, mostly in territory to the south. now these emotional stains are from a hospital in rafa. when moon is a bidding of final farewell to the loved ones, is where the strike hit and apartment building which house displays palestinians. eye witnesses say the residence shows at 14 families some with newborn children. is rarely forces she before course and

a few floors which are full of people more than $100.00. inside the building. they struck it without any advance warning. people will turn upon children, women, and others. every one will skills, people with the color. i saw the apartment was on fire and we risk those we could, but there are still many people under the rubble of the hospital. in rafa is overwhelmed with the arrival of schools of dead and wounded, including many children palestinian health ministries, the conflicts death toll has risen to over 23000 people, highlighting that 70 percent and solve the victims a women and children. joining us tums that turn on reports from my phone yesterday around 11 p. m. and it strikes targeted uh, a residential house specifically uh, 2 apartments belongs to uh that belongs to northland family. and we witnessed the arrival of tim casualties here at our community hospital. and the other 5

casualties arrived uh after we use of the luxury on the job hospital. all sort of no varsity. uh look for lot, far away from here. and uh, there's dozens of the injuries as well. these are family was a sheltering inside this apartment. and many of these palestinians are actually forced to go there and show to the inside of a dangerous area. for example, it was a very quiet and yesterday it was empty. of the sky was empty of drones. is there any war plains, but suddenly around 11 pm, as i told you, i'm there. so i targeted this residential apartment. it's 10 to

a bloody day. suddenly an essential gauze. the safety of the red crescent seems a busy transferring. wounded to hospital is off to another is ready as to like many of the patients, the children who fed the greatest burden eskoville. one of the reasons is where he strikes on gauze. a killed the coach of the palestinian olympics soccer team. honey, almost uh, was a towering figure on the nation's football scene for over 2 decades. and one play i had to say about the top sports manager. i don't have a certain that the sort of honey was a very kind and peaceful personally for you. central guys, i'm well i remember he had so many goals he wanted to achieve with the some more tools, the dreams of guidance. and finally, it was among them pony lost his father in 2014 the back when every palestinian family was harmed by the occupation atrocities is really don't care about anything . schools shelters, hospital is mos in churches, the palm,

everything that the palestinians and gaza are facing of genocide with the whole world simply watching. it's not about how funny were any other guys on was killed. these relays have very clear methods of killing innocent people like targeting buildings and residential houses and see if this is a cowardly occupation for us. they are hitting on arm to people and they looked at all of the children and shelters as we try to play sports like football. we're just trying to live a normal childhood there, deprived them of that, right. i've witnessed 2 orders in the guys. i'm to and they were not as real as this one, but my sisters are in, gosh, are now. and when i talked to them on the phone, they say the situation is unimaginable. the middle and hundreds of thousands rushed to was a trucks carrying flour and tons food and the imbedded and today's capital bounce as the wells health organization goldens its ability to provide aid and support

hosp hospitals as the administrator facing millions of palestinians in jeopardy. but just proposing fundable to an enclave can be a deadly and does a in itself according to the n g o committee to protect journalists. 179 media work hasn't been confirmed, killed in gaza since october the 7th. and he's 32 palestinian journalists had been arrested by the idea during that period, the new arabic press office direct in garza was recently released from detention and said his overdue. i had an adjustment on the display, even though i was arrested by these bailey on me. from my family home and by law here, they did not charge me with anything, but i was held for the to 3 days in prison. and i think it was the prison now that cut themselves crossing their off thousands of prisoners that these rarely ship, that told us they have arrested $20000.00 prison. those separately, the conditions,

the side of very difficult the detainees in prison, all various cats. they are being tortured, tragic circumstances. the red cross told us that from october the 7th, they've been unable to reach the posting of prison. those are all digits i nice hoped to be released live was really such as we am headed down. i arrived at the posting out of crossing were held in oliver and shackle supervisor's movements, and who it was put all the i'll i so we could not see anything 24 hours. but tom is from 11 pm to 4 am. they gave us school, but it was bad because other than food and everyday life of the situation inside the prison is very difficult. there is systematic torture on a daily basis. they told us with me for 25 days, just sitting on my knees, 16 hours torture every day. the conditions, good, difficult, but i was really the, the mo, the namibia on pakistan of joined the list of countries. supposing the genocide

case filed against as well by south africa at the international court of justice and it is. 7 evidence representative to the un code as well as auctions, quote tons similar to genocide, by intents and by number the actions carried off by israel a tend to mount to genocide and the international community is bound by principles that do not afford us. the luxury of complacency, while lives the last and critical infrastructure is destroyed. the rema kit ramifications of this crisis will reverberate for generations to come. for this reason, we welcome the support and action by the government of south africa at the international court of justice. and it may be a both identifies and aligns with the arguments put forward by the republic of south africa and reiterates to long standing support for the inalienable rights of the palestinian people. to self determination, independence and freedom. the garza health ministry size of a $23000.00 palestinians have been killed and is really

a tax since october. the 7th and a number of wounded exceed 60000. and the face of these still king numbers. and his way to the cook policy member calls for donovan to be and i still say that garza must be built and the terrorist will not think that they are beautiful. i was in front of them. i don't apologize and i have no, no see for those who stayed the take corresponded delivery icon gave brings us the details of south africa's international low sees against as well. and so that's what god has put together a formidable document outlining its evidence off of what it says is a genocide taking place in because a strip it says that as well has to send it into a new level of criminality. and that's the magnitude of the a plus which is committed by as well as a see that the threshold of the 1948 convincing off to prevention and punishment of tennis side. it says that these are actually intended to bring about the

destruction of a substantial part of a policy, new, national, racial, and ethnic group. all of this has come together in this particular document. and so that's because voice is not alone and saying what is happening in god's eyes in humane but because no one wants to take up the mental. so africa did say i didn't applies would walk the police team use according to the acts in question. include killing police students and gaza, causing them serious bodily and mental home and inflicting on them conditions of life calculated to bring about the physical destruction the ad. so oh, i see feasible to israel, which has failed to prevent genocide and is coming in genocide and manifesto violation of the genocide convention and which has also while it is continuing to, wiley, it's all the fundamental obligations under the genocide convention. it is not obvious that wisdom governments onto not having to address crimes committed by as well, and i'm not willing to stop the war. many of those countries,

a former colonial as themselves who in practice continue to colonize many parts of the african continent. so holding is while accountable for its crimes could bring attention to the phone, controversial cost this admission merit list counterproductive and completely without any basis. in fact, whatsoever. instead of simply seeing the loose lock made in mind of the states accused, the full crimes of each one is the entity by its willingness to defend itself at the you in court. smell is really present as a catalog, as it describes, sought after, because lawsuit, as a choices and preposterous with some of these wells at the top of fits of things. so of africa is collaborating with give us the self efficacies claim, lex, both effectual and the legal basis and custody. choose despicable and a contemptuous explanation of the court. south africa, east co periods and for the terrace organization that this call in for the destruction of the state of israel sub africa side,

and also includes concerns relating to e as well as conduct towards. but the scene is during the close of the 75 year long, the cottage, an occupation of palestine integrity. however, as the mainstream media news of this group on the global directive, more and more people are signing petitions around the world and beginning to realize that they have been lied to. so that because requests to the international court of justice who have very significant consequences, whitney as well. and it is yet another test of geo political alignment, west versus the wrist. now to the west bank, why doesn't so take into the streets, protesting against the us secretary of state's visit to ramallah, because honestly blinking to guest house of the palestinian territory on to stop supporting the genocide the

as america's top diplomats arrived on the tide security in the west bank he met with paula city and presidents, mahmoud abbas, but to discuss the escalation in the west bank. because what is the future of the post? will garza just bought the much art to media reports. the main thing was brace the palestinian presidents has left for talks with godaddy and king on the gyptian precedence. the stop sending signals expressing taiwanese set portez sentiments. that's the words from the chinese foreign ministry . spokes person, mile name was on boston. washington for meeting with the island. suspicion was behind the aging spike to shoot you a ways the united states just kind of a bind. by the way, i'm trying to principal and the provisions of the 3 china us drawing communicate has been handled taiwan related issues improved on play and properly stop official

exchanges between the united states and i one stop sending any wrong signals to the taiwan independence. separate this forces, i should not interfere in taiwan elections in any form. without taiwan approaches, local parliamentary as governments and elections are set to stop on saturday. the break away islands blames mainland china seize, using old means necessary to make prob, aging candidates with all the chinese officials war and the us from back. hang any tie with a set for to assess, discuss these tensions with all contributed calls on now. call good to see you. thanks for joining us. now. we've seen many chinese warnings to be us throughout the year. is there any signs that these diplomatic close working on washington's policy towards taiwan? well, i think these are routine statement. if a strong china,

the china is reiterating, is position on tie one because sovereignty on tie one is one issue that china will not compromise. and this a year is a very special year because tie one is running a very contested election. there's a, there's a candidate fund that will occur a ruling party which has a platform for taiwan independence, but there's also the opposition, but the opposition is feuding. 3 candidates, so now we have a 4 way election that's hotly contested. and the ruling party despite is on popularity because the opposition is divided. the ruling party candidate is running with a very narrow margin of victory. so, so now, so these are getting very few days in the coming couple weeks. china is sending a clear signal to the united states tongue, which china views as a back in the mask or social current high whenever the attrition telling washington not to do something rash. so basically what we have right now is talking with the

us just accusing each other. i've been to say right in saying that the 10 type ones elections. do you think that the island states as the future is so dependent on the results of these elections? no, because ultimately what her mean to fade a pipe one is a sign the american issue. it's an issue just to be decided between bathing and washington the island local election um at the end of the day that ministration. all entire one, no matter which party come to the office. they currently officer to washington, the washington says, joe, they say hi a fall i so. so this is really not a big issue between ty, one and page. and this is a issue between page and, and washington to resolve the west. and the main stream media seemed to say things differently. they have that coating the elections in taiwan crucial. so why do they have this different perspective as well?

you know, well, one reason is united states is waging the intense media campaign to rach up tensions in the eastern, in the western pacific to justify the continue us military presence in the region. and this applies to taiwan as well. so it's showing that see a japan korea and us just recently issue a joint statement on the south china sea a issue. but the, the irony is not all of these countries border south china sea, neither korea, taiwan nor united states. ready motors i was trying to see so, so it's more of a case us is looking for excuse to get involved and to maintains military presence in the, in the region. and again, i don't see any immediate change even post kyle when you lecture and because it's ultimately the tie when the election is is a local issue, is a local issue,

pertinent to the voters on taiwan. they're voting on how their life leave it to be improved ultimately, that the status of tie one, even the current and the ruling party candidate on the high when even he has said he's not seeking to officially declare independence. so i don't see the status quote, change any time soon. many thanks for speaking to us today or say contribute to college. i appreciated this or to now to our story about the new countries. joining south africa is opposing a case against, as well as the international court of justice. we came across live too heavy, strongly to profess evans. and i shall know at the university of john his bag when he, thanks for joining us on the program. it's very good to see. i'd like to was good for your opinion on south africa's decision to pursue this little stage against as well as the international court of justice. the whole thing,

the importance of the case life and the following facts um it is fixed. therefore we have the south africa's application. the successful not really of the quotes might play a significant role in understanding the obligations of member states under the genocide convention. first of all and secondly, what the mission is that i should say keen circumstances of this kind in a little bit event. uh, you know, home done to the civilian population by acts of this kind which i'm age, qualify as x of genocide. and i think it might contribute to the development of international law in this because furthermore, i also think is that the may also be cavity on the kinds of internal measures that the state is state. may an applicant to this matter could be entitled to or could be successful in obtaining from the quote. because we need some chatted to you,

especially in this case on the nitrogen scope. all seem to of the informations that the code may consider with the hearing due to start tomorrow. we've seen what people it seems to be a matter rush of countries in the last few minutes, joining the south african uh those do, do you expect to move countries to join in the coming else we could be and i think that is it a good thing because it may broaden the scope of facts and the information that the rules slip side the, the code to come to a conclusion, the saw the side august side. and so we have seen the preceded solve this in the case of ukraine. this is russia, we're quite a good number of states joined in the proceedings and i think um, because of the importance of the gaza will match the the, the critics fix

a good number of states joining. i think that's uh, that is a good sign. and it can be of great assistance in determining the outcome of the also proceedings of concerning the outcome of time at the international court of justice effectively address a result of such complex to a political complex. i have to sort of this sounds a sort of warning yet about expecting too much of a v i c j this in god we must always keep in mind that even especially the kind so in some business that they sustain in seattle states not to comply with those intern places and that to especially be the case where the, the stay to is on the wrong side of the quotes. routing may decide that $18.00 to

fee is too much with each, solve it in solving and write some policy. so it may be that even if this the case goes against us for all that us, all the sides, not to follow the big waste of the quote. and i mentioned this specifically for one reason which i think we have to consider and it relates to the, the net and right of self self defense in terms of quality of 51 of the you in charge of, of the circumstances of such and continuing as such that allows this while to uh, to claim that it is still acting in self defense. he may decide that into a major austin as well to cc. so some of these will interfere unjustifiably with each other. like yourself to self defense. some of you in charge,

thank you for speaking to us today is really great to, to get your inside and expertise on the mazda head east wide and profess of international at the university of donovan on his bag. thank you so much for your time. thank you. and now to south america, where these 10 people have been killed in a series of attacks by criminal groups across the equitable president's dining. a bo has declared to quote, states of internal conflict in the country, and say it's his military is fighting against narconi terrorist guns. the. the exchange tale succeeds in several cities in ecuador, with a glimpse have been fine interrupting in the streets. schools have been just being rushed to hospital as well. guns fine, so taking place in broad daylight as criminals attack and kids not seemingly random people. and that's a dory and tv studio was stormed by hoops of on demand well,

pooled costing life police the rest of the assailants who had taken stuff hostage, equity always president in a bow has supposedly gone into hiding beyond rest the rep to dr. a permanent drug contel needed disappeared from a maximum security present on sunday, which sparks riots at several other jails across the country. these disturbing images circulating on social media hardly so young members executes in prison, gods in the facility from which the cocktail, both flags and other drug done figures were supposedly escaped, submit the chaos, the country's president has promised to bring the jails back on the control of the scene in the congress prison sees the result of all decisions to confront them. that is why the government has taken actions that will allow us to regain control of the presence. as in response, these conservative groups are trying to intimidate us and believe that we will give in to them on secret and gets

a moment. i'll think it's fair while it is about it goes to remote goal to ecuador into this unprecedented crisis in the 1st place. and what we're seeing now is a civil conflict between the organized crime and the state. now this has been a long time brewing in ecuador, but this is all due to neil liberal policies influenced by the united states. now when i say a right wing type of he a liberal policy, i mean the us coming in there and dictating the country's foreign policy. now one former president russell for was an office and as he left in 2017 at border was the 2nd safest nation in latin america. it had a very low crime rate at about $5.00 homicides out of 800000 per 100000 people. and then when lending moreno, who was the following president replaced him, there came in a more western back type of policy and that also was followed with kia malott. so who was the president before daniel navarro?

and now this organized crime has come through those administrations leading and corruption because these former administrations did everything they could to expel for a small as was called raphael. whereas policies and they allowed bribery. they allowed corruption within the administrations and within the police forces as well . so ecuador had, eventually a homicide rate increase to 500 percent or around $25.00 out of 100000 people in 2022. now they've also reached high levels of prison violence, as you've seen, with 416 inmates actually brutally murdered since february of 2021. now, according to the ecuadorian media and former president for the current criminals to get these arms from police and from military forces within the government. because these weapons have gone missing. and when we're largely then found. now when we're

talking about the us as presence there, we're talking about multiple high level us as specials, coming in to ecuador traveling, and last so himself actually was given a warm welcome at the white house on the past december. and on the eve of that visit, the us congress passed the us ecuador, a partnership act. now this act was seeking to further increased bilateral relationships between the united states and uh, uh, ecuador, and in 2022. south. com was also there. with the south cons, laura richardson being present when hundreds of thousands of aids for the military in ecuador was given by the united states. now, this has largely hurt the country, instead of moving it forward, which is what the united states, as claim there is a mass exodus of people from ecuador, now coming into the united states. when we talk about immigration problems, it's very important to talk about the causes of these immigration problems and understand that i put doors that has also largely increased exponentially since

2014 to about 74900000000 dollars. so what we're seeing here is ecuador is a prime example of what happens when a country a band and ser sovereignty in favor of doing what the united states wants. so it has the service at this time, which most of the story that meets the i course, the exception. if i was looking at this chaos in saying that he should take full responsibility for all of a thomas more about, donna bow at the countries. the youngest of alexi leda. yeah, well he's 35 years old. he's very young. i mean, he hills from a billionaire uh oligarch background. his father is over a no boss who owns a new boy corporation. now he's a banana tycoon, export bananas and ecuador, and he was elected on october 15th of 2023. so he's barely been in office. he's extremely inexperienced. he doesn't really have a huge political background, but his father had warranted to run for office many times. and he was born in miami,

florida, so he has a us background as well. in fact, he was actually educated in the most pre see just universities instead of my daughter's bachelorhood m y you, you actually studied at harvard and got an m b a from northwestern university. so you know that he's definitely in step with the type of us foreign policy. uh that many people in ecuador have criticized, which is what led to this moment. now he also tried to secure immediately funds with the i a mass vista, something we've seen happen to countries like argentina that has led it to a downward spiral. and his policies, as far as of foreign affairs, had been largely pro west. now it seems like he is following in his father's footsteps in terms of cooperation and cozying up to the west. and it doesn't seem like this is gonna lead in a very good direction. because right now, recently, peru has actually launched a forces to its border with ecuador in order to secure its border because the

situation seems to be getting out of control and many are asking, what is the solution to this price as well? one of the things that the leader of being on the bullet has said is he's going to build prisons. but before he does that, he's got to get the police and the military to control these criminal gangs that have pretty much taken over and caused so much terror and chaos will make sure you stay with us and also you international as we continue to bring to the latest from ecuador, all the, and of course, online a website all see the account has more details about the shopping tv studio hostage crisis. as long as the government phone going, yes, it's the cross down on gun violence in the latin american country. make sure you do check that out. coming next on the tunnel is still keep century time with the truss full of clothes to look at the life of judy, the songs on the wiki likes control of a say. you can join me again for more news at the top. yeah.
