how being subjected to brutal abuse, allegedly including sexual violence and torture. while in this really military detention. that is, according to a new report from the u. n. refugee agency from palestine, which has released some hardaway, testimonies of survivors. and they made me sits on something like a hot metal. so it kind of feels like fire his bones into a notice the soul just hit me with the shoes on my chest and use something like a muscle stick that had a small nail on the side. they asked us to drink from the toilets and made the dogs attack us. there were people who were detained until maybe 9 of them. one of them died after they put the electric stick off his anus. he got so sick with. so one's coming out of his body and then he died. well, oh no, i says it based. it's report on testimonies of palestinians freed from is really the tension between november last year. and this april. the agency documented the

release of more than $1500.00 detainees from guys on including $43.00 children and 80 for women. and on those released were of the agencies, employees and their relatives. they were also old and sick people, them on the tanny's injured people. those with disabilities and with mental problems, they testified being held incommunicado between interrogations and also appear to be, make shift military barracks, housing, up to 120 people, sometimes for several weeks. transported their by trucks. palestinians reported while in detention they were beaten up, forced to lie on the mattresses on top of rubble for hours without food, water access to toilet with their legs and hands tied. several detainees reported being forced to into cages and attacked by dogs. some of them including one child, had dulled by tones on their body,

the report states. detainees also said they were forced to sit on their knees for 12 to 16 hours a day blindfolded with their hands tied. some, one of our staff members reported they experienced tool to bolting a form of torture, simulating drowning france of rape and electrocution, were forced to stripped naked or film till photographed while without clothes. some reports they were forced to act like animals or even you related on. here are some of the testimonies. they ask the soldiers to speed on me saying she's a, she's from gaza. they would bid and us as we moved in saying they would put 5 owners sensitive parts. janet, else they pulled us beat us. they took us into boss to the demon, present of to 5 base and male soldiers to go far ahead jobs and they pinched us and touched all bodies, including our breasts. we were blindfolded and we were feeling them touching us, pushing our hats to the bus. we started to squeeze together to try to protect

ourselves from detection. they said they told the soldiers to take all their shoes and slip or faces with them. female palestinian detains described being psychologically abused, reported inappropriate touch, enduring searches. and both men and women reported threats and incidents that may amount to sexual violence and harassment by the idea of several people were admitted to hospitals straight after being released. detainees also testified the idea of confiscated their professions, including ideas and money. and generally, it was never returned to after the release, many testified about various threats, the idea of use to get information they needed. do you run into allegations that's taken? listen, siobhan showed me my whole neighborhood on a computer screen and asked me to tell them about old persons they pointed to who is this, who is this, etc? if i didn't recognize someone, the soldiers threatened to bull my home. she asked me when my home didn't evacuated

itself. i told her my brothers and my father stayed at home. she said, if you don't confess with own formation, will bomb your home and kill your family. the valet stayed in prison in our society says base relative fuses to disclose the number of gallons a detained over the past 6 months after the war and guys and started all their whereabouts. several is rarely n g, as travels through geneva or earlier this week to alarm before the un about the serious crisis inside is really jails in terms of a number of inmates. and that's richmond. one of the law says it's sent official requests to israel off to the report about ill treatment was published. these really military denied the allegations as you remember, e's real believes another one is links to have mass. milton, whoops, earlier, is accused a number of their, when these agencies stuff of been involved in the 7th of october, have mass attacks on age ro. it led to another while a major don't. there is cutting their funds before any investigation. later,

most of them returned, but the reputation of agency known for providing a to palestinian refugees for decades was of course as boiled. washington is deeply concerned by claims in the most with some underwater ford state department deputies spokesperson said the us now vows to press israel to conduct the full investigation . the big question, however, is whether israel will listen and even if there is a pro, will those responsible be brought to justice? now our people in guns are protected by the geneva conventions on the rules of war interior. yes, they aren't. everyone is. but take a look at the following exchange on not between the us state department spokesman, i'm a drink and do you recognize the geneva conventions apply either emphasize your questions or you have to have the they did it and your colleagues deceitfully

responded to a do you record so i can either conventions, it's a simple question, go, how do you recognize the geneva conventions which are fine to guys when you interrupt me and it's not, it's not a matter of you. i'm not good at a simple tank. additional combined is a simple question. go ahead, you got 2 questions. i literally concert. no, i didn't get to you. did you, as you asked a question about why report and you asked to follow on, please go ahead and other your number from new york easy to answer. go ahead. so the geneva conventions apply that to us or not get by the everywhere on the planet except for the palestinians. isn't that right v. i continue to stress everywhere. and everywhere that the international humanitarian law needs to be abided by in respect that governs the geneva conventions apply. you are now interrupting your colleagues. and you are not insisting on an answer to a critical question. go ahead, full of background to that. um the smoke persons refusal to answer centers on the report published by the euro med monitor, human rights group alleging of some gaskins hurts watts appears to be signed of

screaming women and children during nighttime idea strikes. when the civilian stepped outside their shelters to investigate the noises, they were reportedly killed by his really drones and snipers of the signs where apparently designed to are the mode. some residents also reported hearing songs being played an automatic of hebrew. will some audio file circulating on social media appear to play the same distressing sides heard by locals, and then this around refuge account. think of, of the, for the full and i'm afraid you, me for the small better solution. but other stages of the saw some of the for the long, unless it's a lot of what we discussed all about with veteran war journalist and political

level as the eliza mag me a who said it's likely the idea is using psychological war for to target goals. it's one of the most on at the co pay. yeah. all these really a more on that prove 3 said to be the most in more in the what? because all the violation of human rights, the, the commit to committing will crimes. the crimes against you by the so these really on the piece try kind of doing side to kids and wait for this thing and they make disobedience because nobody is not the minutes is was rushing outside and they tend to have it just doing for women and they also get used to the offices, 2300000. everybody is living god and the they would come out and try to have children and we may be in distress. so taking advantage of

the who monday see all differently, seeing it is something that is on the in the un security council is expected to vote on palestine speed to become a fully fledged member of the world. bobby, speaking a head all about the session rushes on, voice slum the us for it stands on the is really tell us to be in conflict on the use, particularly a veto powers on the council. the committee comes, the good thing is good. our american colleagues did not hide the fact that they see the security council as an obstacle, one that should not interfere with their effective diplomacy on the ground. in reality, this was to grant their main middle eastern ally a free hand in clearing the enclave. the us hypocritically accuses russia and china of v towing their fine product. yet our veto serves as an example of why the veto

tool is needed. and simple tediously answers. those who are demanding it's abolition. it is needed to prevent the adoption of unbalanced and deceitful decisions pushed by washington. the silly and they've been, jeff, well, let's go live now towards us. corresponding kilowatt been in new york, he'll have things certainly come off of south world body ahead of the landmark votes on pablo signs membership, which i think i'm right in saying it is expected to happen today at some stage. what else is know, and at right now, as well, we heard the russian envoys speaking before the 15 member body that leads the united nations and before the security council, russian ambassador and the ben z, a highlighted the double standards and hypocrisy of western countries that are constantly lecturing the world about human rights, the protections of civilians, civil liberties, and so many issues, but then conveniently turning

a blind eye to is really crimes and atrocities. now at this point, there over 240 united nations workers who have been killed. israel has attacked, humanitarian envoys and western countries continue to protect israel at the un security council. and at this point, uh, they seem to be allowing israel to carry out further escalations in the region. this is what russian ambassador and eventually is said before the council at the meeting to renew unless it was up at the gulf, gave me, was it due to the fault of our western colleagues, specifically the united states, the u. k. and friends of the council cannot condemn these 3 at least strikes on the korean conflict in damascus on here pro. first of this failure undermines the very foundation of international relations, the in the viability of diplomatic and consular premises and personnel, and such neglect from the west and towards individual states and their rights.

dividing the world into those above the law. and those whose legitimate interests can be ignored and has brought the middle east to the brink of a major war. this is your so called effective diplomacy. dear western colleagues each time and bears fruit do you get results in new victims and destruction? the international community effectively failed to protect the palestinians from these rarely massacre due to the stands of one state is blocking all our efforts. these really representative has long have been making offensive statements against the un and its staff and even the secretary general today, he did not hesitate to label the security council aid from terror, chance slurry users, people of students who would now the meeting, which is discussing the issue of a possible recognition of both statehood by the united nations member status for the palestinian state. that meeting is expected to continue in

a few hours. uh there will be a continuation and possibly a vote on the matter by the security council. because on caleb own box, i believe the policy at any vendor is really on voice also took to the floor to exchange some fresh verbal blows at the un security console. indeed, as the issue being discussed is the possibility of palestine becoming a member states. we did hear the palestinian authority take to the floor and make a play that they be recognized and not simply observers of the united nations, but be given full united nations and member state status. and we heard israel thunderously condemned such a possibility. here's the war of words on the floor of the un security council. and several members express the view. the admission of the state of palestine to membership in the united nation was a political matter rather than

a technical or legal requirements. in other words, you and charter be damned international law, be damned. they're just em 2 words on paper rights. do you and is no longer a boat to multilateralism. sadly, it is no committed to multi terrorism or the security council. terror pays off its shameful. as i have always pulled out the political rocks within the un that sadly nothing here is based on truth and justice, but toxic politicized station. and today the mask is finally folded and the council has exposed to expose itself. and for samuel philip to see how could brad looked into the state of the palace design, the full membership. i do not to the nation similar to other countries around the world. how could this damage to the prospects, the space between palestinians and his radio? do you my house and this recognition and this membership,

that harm would be the national peace and security document in jim b. as in this question, ladies and gentlemen, i see we ask it specifically, well moving here the united states and other countries. i saw that a lot of people are wanting, the state doesn't have to sign for membership at a time when they recognize israel, which is the other party in the and the colors, right? 80 minus the conflict and has positive israel membership and other united nations before shopping for the speed. now the meeting is proceeding and it is expected that there should be a vote on the issue of palestinian recognition in the next few hours. live from new york city ortiz caleb and killed. the thanks very much in less than 24 hours, india will begin the largest extra size of democracy in the world. it's parliamentary elections early voting, in fact has already started in some parts of the country,

nearly a 1000000000 people are eligible to have their say, we're a 6 week bullet process. the 1st phase of which begins on friday. we'll bring you special coverage of the, of the as well. the indian economy is a key issue that's taking center stage of citizens prepared to choose their next parliament and prime minister. the main parties contesting the potent are the ruling beach at p. m, the indian national congress. here's what they've said ahead of us. we are committed to so the last came to transform which is put on so of manufacturing to create employment opportunities. and dr. economic expansion will ensure all the things you have remains the worlds fastest growing, major economy and future, while maintaining mach crossed ability with pi a to be the wells,

the largest economy by 2030. what production is important because activities equal importance, any embezzlement, legal, administrative to logic production, ohio value will be removed. the congress has committed to rapid growth and generation of both. we have set a target of doubling budget to be in the next 10 years. we'll just to point out in the is the worlds fastest growing economy, the size of which was estimated a $3.00 trillion dollars last year. while the countries g d. p forecasts for the next 12 months. it's at 7 percent, making it the world's 5th largest economy. now the jump, 5 spots in the rankings over the past decades. well, india is use is of the forefront of the digital revolution. over the next few years, the nation plans to become a tech power horse and a major producer of sending conductors. other key goals include the fostering of

entrepreneurship and the removal of obstacles and business development. india, as foreign policy is also aimed at attracting significantly more foreign investment . we discussed the prospects with a panel of experts, a piano or a, a very, very large country. and therefore, i think one of the biggest obstacles of, well either you can call it up sticker loan, an opportunity is to be able to meet and manage the aspirations of a very, very large number of young people. 65 percent of india are under $35.00. we add about $2425000000.00 people to out of the population every year. so i think one challenge is going to be how do we make sure that we continue to provide opportunities of growth and prosperity for a very large number of people. number 2 is that why the data has been a very substantial amount of investment in infrastructure. and people like me who live in the lodge metropolitan cities i've,

i've seen amazing highway is likely we'll see in most of other parts of the developed was i do believe that some more work needs to be done to be able to take infrastructure and make it more accessible in our rural areas. so many things have not started moving is that i so as far as the you're making a tough, it's becoming to the energy the product fall into place. i mean, some of the video was states that these 6 to didn't very me to 6 to available apartments, but in human society, sooner we wouldn't be, you know, was a tv, the kind of for, for, you know, since proficiency, that the beautiful country has been to you know, looking at the remote in the hub simply because the highest degree 3 mand club, so it will be produced. 30 folding to 50, lack continuously to get we have that, you know,

man far required for taking the country forward. we have some vision though, also to match the profit of what has happened in the past. no speed, the future will be much plus steps and the thoughts quite so that you will not become the 3rd largest. you told me i don't have any doubt about it. no, the president of books, one that has a ques, europeans of quote prioritizing elephants over low cost and has threatened to send $13000.00 all the most to germany in the u. k. to demonstrate the dangers of living alongside them. the statement comes that made rising tensions over potential trophy hunting import funds proposed by berlin, unless i get the sense that they think these elephants are pets. i get the sense that many seeing these elephants are human beings, and the majority would perceive the value of these elephant says superior to human life. and what's one, why don't true for a moment, the experience leaving with them?

that's why this offer was made to yourselves to have them in hyde park or responding to the proposed import restrictions in the u. k. in germany, the southern african countries officials stress that any bond would mean they already, $130000.00 strong ellison population would only grow, which in turn will pose a threat to look goes on worse than poverty in botswana. less girls like no to the customs, don't speak to global affairs. animal is victor ok. hi, you're most welcome. what is your take then on this very direct i would say reaction in gap our own a to the proposed trophy. i don't think import funds in germany in the u. k. i mean this, there is a risk 1st of a strong precedent. no one knows your program like she is 6 to rarely out of the ticket position and my wife should dirt from the stern

office. it doesn't make sense. and like i said, i mean live with the phone so you know what it means. you can imagine you hurry, your props, you're out there from my radio. you're already county. randy area. as far as i know about what you expect, the nice farming range of the big capital farming are you expecting to meet a certain how this process of students living. i'm going to be a be, have is period. i'm in a row from just walk into your file and then destroy it every day. i mean, not you do you have to leave it to understand it. you know, i don't know. it's one of them tomorrow, so you can look at, we just become a pull down cheese account, pulled down, step on how's the culture, little level and destruction. so i think that you would take decisions such as seems right at try me to journal. i might write something or is it is important to

put things in proper context. antoine understand, you know, how it affects the beautiful god like, do you want to understand exactly what people that ways if you sit, for instance, i'm a veteran, is a portal or you and for to nancy is fine with i know that, but it's really been a pleasure to access to gas, you don't have access to all the new forms of energy to put your media. i know a lot of just the prototype of human being, which means that you dance, i 90 miles desperately. you want to be able to transform, ma'am? yes or you won't be stuck between mazda or mac is, 1st of all, you want to be doing, so it be like yours, right? it's a but it's, it's um, below better products, more than us. the good guy from apple vision. i'm not going to be

there right and then see what it is. this is this almost, i can't help but thinking sir, that this is a lot of the west view on africa in my crow. you know, it starts off with something at maybe good and pure protecting, protecting allison's beautiful out of those. but then it goes into forgetting about the locals, what they need to prioritize, how they feed shelter, etc. and then subsequently, the lecturing begins exactly exactly where the situation is. i mean, can you imagine having uh, why adult service shoots or birthdays, or long during the, or any of these uh, are you, this is riley. uh, well, definitely. now i am hire oop here with this or what did you do this of our busy truck. oh, you are. i mean to, to, to,

to get rid of the fact that if you have ideas on the lose you, um, on the one with the news on the street so barely on the streets of london prairies . so brussels by themselves. no beauty should them do this, for instance, i have the right amount of rights, you know, you know? sure they just sit down and talk this things are going to give you the comfort of at homes or wherever they are because it is okay. for instance, of some of these fine was like, do you see their mouse things for some body feelings to be to be a hotmail? my got to be honest with you, it would do. they would say we'd use that for drop here and all the way there, my laptop to the people who do the wide. this is just live works, but you use you basically be, is histories,

a huge population. all states which also come on in new york, for instance, let's just do the mattress and they will come again to the conversation and see what happens in a very interesting day. thank you for your time today, dr. victor, i'll kind of global the 1st list, live from lagos. thank you for everything. now and the latest that sam to get a controversial foreign aid package past us, lawmakers have decided to break it all down into several separate bills, including a $60000000000.00 deal for ukraine, high speaker republican mike johnson as volley to support the laughter. despite his previous tough stuffs, against even considering what i'm doing here, what i believed to be the right thing, i think for providing legal aid, do you agree in right now is critically important. before we even talk about ukraine, i'm going to tell the president when i'm telling all of you and we've told the american people border border border, we need

a clarity on what we're doing in ukraine and how will have proper oversight of the spending of precious taxpayer dollars and american citizens, the republican warehouse will not be jammed or forced into passing or for an aid bill that was opposed by most republican senators. and does nothing to secure our own board. this time for washington to start showing some love to americans for this new you creating a to bill proposed by the house speaker, mike johnson is a real 180 turn for the republican. so we're just recently criticizing joe biden, for having the stance of unconditional support for ukraine. this new proposal sees to send ukraine long range tactical ballistic missiles and also allocate another $61000000000.00 for purposes connected to the ukraine. conflicts $23000000000.00 of that going to replenishing us arsenals that have been depleted as a result of sending weapons ukraine. it seems like such a bizarre turnaround, the full mike johnson does. and that because as we saw in the ground that he was

the one about folders for his board is he never put his thoughts. i spend on money at home and not abroad. and now here is um, with this degree a very different to support changed. yeah, well there is actually a catch to all this 8 if we can even call it that. it might even be better to call it just that because part of the terms of this proposal is that ukraine is going to have to pay this back down the line under the terms of the proposal. ukraine has the opportunity to negotiate with the white house in terms of just how much it's going to be expected to pay back, but that's going to be done before november 15th of this year. so really at the end of the day, if you read between the lines this proposal looks like a great opportunity for washington to make some money and also turn ukraine into a debt slave state. now effective or not effective as long as the west send something, then it feels that it's holding up it's side of the bargain. after all the waste oldenburg sees it. it's up to the west to supply the weapons and it's up to the key ever seem to as a.
