6:04 pm
some reports they were forced to act like animals or even you related on here are some of the testament is the 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 genitals, they pulled us beat us. they took us into boss to the demon present up to 5 base and male soldiers took off or had 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 spaces with them. female palestinian detainees described being psychologically abused, reported inappropriate touch, and during 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 off to being released. detainees also testified the idea of confiscated, therapist sessions, 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's this, who's best, 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, our society says is relative fuses to disclose the number of gallons a detained over the past 6 months after the warrant guys and started on their whereabouts. several is rarely n g, as travels through geneva or earlier this week to the alarm before the un about the
6:06 pm
serious crisis inside is really jails in terms of a number of inmates. and that's richmond. one of the law says it 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 israel. it led to another while a major donor 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, the deputy spokesperson said the us now vows to press israel to conduct the full investigation. the big question however,
6:07 pm
is whether israel will listen and even if there is a pro, will those responsible be brought to justice rushes password or to the un has lost out of washington after it vetoed on thursday? paula signs paid for a full membership off the world body. it saves so much for it, but the goal of the us resolution is to break the will lift palestinians to make them unconditionally submit to the occupying power, to turn them into servants. and 2nd class citizens, or perhaps even eradicate and expelled them from their native territory. such a policy only produces the opposite effect. today the vast majority of the global community supports palestine application for a full membership in the world organization. the sufferings of peaceful palestinians resonates in the hearts and souls of millions of people worldwide. the
6:08 pm
current use of a veto, right by the us delegation, is a futile attempt to hold the relentless march of history, the voting results, where washington, the found itself almost completely isolated, speak for themselves each while speaking it had all thursday session of the un security console where paula spines, potential full membership of the united nations was, as we heard, voted on unblocked after the u. s. veto did. the russian and boy also slammed washington. for instance, on the conflict of the whole, the committee comes, the colored thing is, can 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
6:09 pm
of v towing their fine product. yet our veto serves as an example of why the veto tool is needed and single tediously answers those who are demanding it's abolition . it is needed to prevent the adoption of unbalanced and deceitful decisions pushed by washington. well, we heard the russian envoys speaking before the 15 member body that leads the united nations and before the security council, russian ambassador nipple bands the highlighted, the double standards and hypocrisy of western countries that are constantly lecturing the world about human rights. so the protections of civilians, civil liberties, and so many issues, but then conveniently turning a blind eye to his railey crimes and across cities. now at this point, there over 240 united nations workers who have been killed. israel has attacked humanitarian envoys and western countries continued to protect israel at the un
6:10 pm
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 in the band z a said before, the council, at the meeting for the new unless it was up and the girl agreement was 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 iranian conflict in damascus on here pro. first of this failure undermines the very foundation of international relations. the invoice liability covered 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. we did hear the palestinian authority take to the floor and may
6:11 pm
complete that they be recognized. and not simply observers, the united nations, but be given full united nations member state status. and we heard israel thunderously condemned such a possibility. yours, the war of words on the floor of the un security council. several members expressed the view that the admission of the state of palestine to membership in the united nation was a political matter rather than a technical or legal requirement. in other words, you on charter, be damned international law, be damned. they're just m 2 words on paper rights, do you and is no longer a both multilateralism. sadly, it is now committed to multi terrorism and 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,
6:12 pm
and the council has exposed to expose itself yolanda and samuel philip to see how good granting the state of palestine from membership of the united nations. similar to other countries around the world damaged the prospects of peace between palestinians and israelis. how could this recognition and this membership and international peace and security? this question, ladies and gentlemen, we ask specifically to be united states and other countries that oppose grand in the state of palestine full membership at a time when they recognize israel, which is the other party and is really boasting and conflict and has granted easily a full membership of united nations and to those to say that the recognizing the palestinian state must happen through negotiations and not through un resolution. we want to once again our, the state of israel establishment. how was it recognized? wasn't that down through a un resolution, which is the resolution $181.00. and while they're now trying to is robin handed the adoption of such
6:13 pm
a resolution. by this time the international community cannot stand idly by while the countries of both international law enjoys impunity. is real shoulders full responsibility for the mass of destruction, of guys as self informants continued to aggression. it is also the responsibility of countries that have supported easement with weapons and funds and provided israel with political protection for us to a political level that sadie smith to this washington's vito. in his view as denied by less than easy access to basic human rights. i think you will provide palestine with the same protections that, that other countries are provided at the you and that would allow hopefully international law to actually be enforced. cuz right now is real is essentially been allowed to bomb the palestinians with near impunity. so it would provide palestine with protections and it would set them on the road to become a state. washington does support is real ethnic cleansing and palestine. washington, well,
6:14 pm
it will support is real unconditionally because they protect our oil interests in the region. oil, interest and other economic interest is not just oil but and, and gaza is an important spot. economically. there's natural gas off the coast of guys. it would allow them easier trade and easier access to the sea. so i think there are economic reasons that the us supports the ethnic cleansing of the palestinian people and the seizure of land and gaza. and while publicly they'll say that they're reprimanding is real. they're asking israel to show restraint. in reality, behind the scenes they don't care, they'll support is real unconditionally, so long as israel continues to act as a neo colonial outpost in the middle east. in a matter of hours, india will begin the largest exercise of democracy in the world. it's parliamentary elections, part of which will also see the countries next leader elected early voting has already started in some parts of the nation. nearly
6:15 pm
a 1000000000 people are eligible to have their say in a 6 week long ballad. the 1st phase of which begins on friday and r t will bring you special coverage of the major event. the, the will the indian a common me i'm the money in their pockets is a key issue. of course for voters stay prepared to choose their next parliament and prime minister. the main parties contesting the pole or the ruling b, j. p. and the indian national congress, here's what they've said ahead of the photo. we are committed to so the law came to transform it just for time, so of manufacturing to create employment opportunities and drive economic expansion will ensure that into everybody's the worlds fastest growing major economy in

6:18 pm
live in the lodge metropolitan cities i've, i've seen amazing highway is like we would see in most of other parts of a developer. what i do believe that some more work needs to be done to be able to take infrastructure and make it more accessible in our router areas. so many the things we have not yet started moving is that i so as far as the making up, it's becoming to the energy the products are in the pipeline and some of the video was states. i know these 6 of it was very, very distinct. available problem is the input of human societies. as soon as we get off of achieving the kind of for, for, you know, sense proficiency that the beautiful country has been to, you know, looking at, are they located a thing remote in the hub? it has the highest degree 3 in mind club. so it will be produced 30 folding to
6:19 pm
50 loc continuously to get we have that you don't mind far required for taking the country forward. we have some vision, though, also to match the profit of doing what the, what has happened in the past. no speed. the future will be much faster. i'm going to be in the thoughts quite to fully viewed up, become the 3rd largest economy. i don't have any doubt about it while it's almost underway and will ensure you don't miss any of the moments that mount her as india heads to the pools or special coverage of the country's parliamentary elections, which will run until june against this friday. the china has slum the upcoming joint military drills between the us and the philippines in the southeast asian countries waters badging,

6:21 pm
almost 3 weeks are due to start on monday on china isn't the only country raising the alarm. single pores foreign minister has expressed his concerns to the moment you have an escalation of tension or collisions or military action in the south china sea. it will immediately impair an m p. trade. single par is interested in maintaining peace and stability in one of the world's busiest waterways, which is what the south china sea is. leisha 1st commented, or nelson, one told r t. the us keeps wading into a far away region. instead of minding its own business to us, it is always trying to pull the nose into affairs of our region, despite the repeated roaming of. i'm trying to add that all disputes that should be solved amicably from friendly negotiations among the countries in the region. the us as far apart and then not parts of this region. so of course, i mean they,
6:22 pm
that the, they're everywhere they try to, to pose that knows at every way around the world to, to correct some trouble. let's don't forget that when president macos 1st came into power, and he went to the us for a state visit. and i believe quite clearly, and i remember quite clearly he said that the state, when he opened up 4 or 5 on the basis ministry basis for the us. he said quite clear that they were not supposed to be used to, to, to facilitate anything against china. but now, quite recently he said quite to the country, you said yes, they are against china. so that's quite bothering actually, and i believe chinese government has now made it very clear and the position is very firm. the european union must aim for a quote,
6:23 pm
a single market with teeth to keep its economy competitive. that's according to a plan that former italian prime minister and rico let to those present is of the meeting of the leaders of the gap between the union with us into a silver they cannot. performance is, is becoming bigger and bigger and, and the possibility to reinforce the single market to eliminate defragmentation starting from the 3 left to verse of the door periods and the 3 main leftovers where energy, telecom and financial markets with a not time member states decide it's not to give to the lord the possibility to integrate them and we are losing competitiveness on the city. this is why the main proposal is to integrate them. let's expand on it, mr. let his report suggest expanding the idea of a single european market to lift tangible areas such as telecommunication,
6:24 pm
to energy finance. currently those spears are fragmented by different national rules that make it difficult to scale up. but the italian wants to see a savings on investment, union release trillions of euro from private accounts in order to subsidize initiatives across the u. however, while politicians from brussels are not favoring state 8, essentially, just last year they cried, filed over china, doing the same thing, but global markets and also loved it was cheaper chinese electric cars. and the price is kept artificially low by huge states subsidies. this is a distorting our market and as we do not accept this distortion from the inside in our market, we do not accept this from the outside. so i can announce today that
6:25 pm
the commission is launching an empty subsidy investigation into electric vehicles coming from china. we discussed the discrepancy with geo political, a specialist on entrepreneur angelo juliano essays. the you clearly has 2 sets of rules on the issue as well. this is a typical of west tennessee bulky. it's the the stand that we can do it. but when you do it it's, it's not ok. now we're looking at subsidies. uh, i think it's because the use of losing market share as chinese more competitive stuff. i was reason, actually the chinese more competitive. there's a, they high level over, but these ation, chinese name is also cheap, cheaper. and i think we need to keep into account that the, because of the energy that the u. s. to purchase in the us, which is much more expensive. what china has a cheapest source of energy, especially when he comes to russia?
6:26 pm
i think in the meantime, in the initial term, if this is, these might be a solution for the you to shoot you to keep the industry to keep the market share. so because otherwise they are not completed, they need to, to buy, to buy those goods outside and, and probably the attendance ease of probably the us and especially china. so it's about my market protection. so, but it is going against the whole fundamentals of this liberal market, free market economy. okay, somebody else to tell you by today, the president of both swan a, how's the cues, europeans of, quote, prioritizing elephants over locals. less threatened, defend 30000 of the on the most of germany and the u. k. to demonstrate the dangers of living alongside another statement comes in mid rise intentions, over potential trophy hunting import funds, proposed by berlin and,
6:27 pm
and 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, a very complex value based policy problem since but so on, i is home to over a 3rd of the continents. alex is a management decisions have major consequences on the spaces as a whole, and it all started ada. this eob and germany is environmental ministry flow to the proposal to impose scripts and limits on the import of hunting tool feed into the country out of concern for poaching presidents and we'll put through my system believes that cause a vase and i have who is the local population to balloon, to nearly a 130000. and then hunting the mysterious sol component of population controlled before the diadem animal. at this point,
6:28 pm
the president says it is very easy to sit in berlin and have an opinion about apricots as well as between the phase, particularly plus one. and one possible solution not present must cease to flow to was that gemini must walk the walk instead of simply talking the tool because she proposed the germans should live together with the animals in the same way if they're trying to tell which one to do so, just move from the president, those europeans. if they lived among the funds like we do, they would respond exactly the same way. perhaps they might be more brutal because they have a much stronger gun culture than we do. imagine you try to gather your goats at night. when you stumble up on an elephant, any charges you cannot alter on an elephant, you get squashed like when you squash. but a to a when you mash it. number b, as in bob way, even so that freak i have old slide to reduce the number of a low facility, a tibbetts feed at certain points, but nearly all the methods and ways of doing so have been met with criticism, or rather,
6:29 pm
how do i turn the nation by you go to the and watch them in the or rather the europeans seem to not understand at this point is that the region that has a sustainable but a rather a tiring capacity of, of, and the food. and that to the overall population has resulted in several instances of conflict between the animals and the people. and in most cases, benefit have been going to, the village is causing damage to corrupt. feels especially in some districts in botswana with the a more animals than people. and african governments are often and good by the idea of wisdom. countries telling them that to the practice is an ethical, hence the 3 to 5 books, one as president at this moment. but at this point, the african countries, the standing, the ground and open b, calling the band, a neo colonial into fear is, would this suffering to ride to, to sustain the use of author? the services will just thing with the story. we got reaction from global affairs,
6:30 pm
i'm less than common tutor, dr. victor. archive who saves western countries either don't seem to care or know about the day to day priorities of the people of baltimore as long as your program likes you. um. switch to barely out the ticket position and my wife should direct from the stump of your fee will pay you the product types of humor, which means that you drugs, i 90 miles desperately. you want to be the 1st you dresser and man. yeah. so you won't be stuck between mazda or la fitness 1st to full juwan be 0. and so i think like here is riley said that it's, it's a little bit of bounce more than us the entire, from apple vision another me there. why that and see what it looks like and not just where we leave and use drop for another. but do keep right in the loop by
