mh370. nine years on, an inquiry of a former russian spy accusing the russian president of ordering the killing. >> i'm lee wilings wellings summer and winter games beijing is the first, and agony for almati. >> hudges >> hundreds of palestinians attended the funeral of an 18 month old baby who died, the baby answer parents and four-year-old brother are in critical condition. in hospital in israel. what happened was condemned as an act of terrorism. more from stefanie dekker who is there.

>> the family shared the only bedroom. they would have been fast asleep when the window was smashed and the small space set on fire. ibrahim heard screams and parents were lying outside with clothes on fire. when they came back, the two men were gone. >> translator: smoke was coming from inside i saw the four-year-old and pulled him out. they said there was another one inside. the flames were so big there was no way to save the baby. >> this was the room where 18-year-old allie was found. the way he described what was left of the baby was as a lump of coal. relatives have laid the picture of allie on the floor of the bedroom, he hadn't finished his milk yet. the attackers left behind a message, it says revenge in

hebrew. allie's parents and his four-year-old brother have been taken to a hospital. >> the government unequivocally condemns this heinous crime. we will fight and defeat terrorism no matter who the perpetrators are. >> reporter: mahmoud abbas blames the terrorism. they have never had such an outcome. hundreds showed up for baby allie's funeral. his parents in too critical a condition to lay that are son to rest. israeli government says it will bring what they call terrorists to justice but not many here believe that promised justice will come.

>> let's go to stefanie outside the boy's home. she sent us this not so very long ago. >> occupied east jerusalem in response to what happened here, here in hebron and east jerusalem. we're not seeing huge numbers what that means is there is a real sense that they are helpless to try and change anything, certainly when it comes to trying to change this israeli government settlement expansion settlement which has been active over the past few years. >> what is the stefanie dekker. the israeli prime minister has been to see the baby's family. the israeli government he says is responsible for finding whoever is responsible. >> we have to calm the spirits and we commit our joint battle against terrorism. something that all parts of the israeli government and all parts

of israeli society agree on. it's important that we make common cause with our palestinian neighbors to give ourselves a better future, a future free of violence free of terror for the future of peace. >> let's bring in london-based palestinian over-the-counter sharifjournalist sharif.what do you take from what was said we condemn this as an act of terror, kinding standing back doing nothing at this point? >> i think they can't because a toddler has been killed so this is something they have to condemn. three things, firstly this is not an isolated incident. palestinians are subjected to israeli violence on nearly daily basis. and a society of austerity and

impunity, something like this was only a matter of time given the sense of impunity. and the third thing is that the israeli army doesn't act any differently. it targets civilians. if you look at the next gaza war, israeli citizens said their direction was to deliberate target citizens and ask questions afterwards. palestinian citizens as settlers. >> what does israel need to do other than i'm sure you would say this is probably priority, other than stop building these settlements, demolish them, what to do to take heat out of all this? >> israel has shown itself unwilling to do anything exempt except

expand. except the boycott in expansionist movement, the israeli government itself is not going to do what's necessary. >> in terms of the attacks on palestinian settlements let's look at the figures in 2006, casualties 56. it then went up to a height in 2011. now number of casualties has actually been falling since then. is there a reason for that? >> it's difficult to say. the number of violence acts has not fallen. so -- >> these are official figures and it suggests that they have. >> whose official figures are they? >> they come from one of the human rights groups that has actually pulled everything together 134 so it's falling but not enormously. is there a reason this you can think? >> not that i can think of. i at this point settler violence

that is continued unabated, israeli groups in particular have been very vocal about the extent of settler violence. this is not surprising given that there are more and more settlers. the israeli government continues to expand. the last settlement of israeli settlements has been just two days ago. the geneva convention forbids the expansion of settlements. >> taken to a court of law sentenced and perhaps incarcerated. >> of all the complaints lodged to palestinians to the israelis almost 93% go without any charge. so nothing is done, 93% of cases. and where there is a punishment of settlers it is symbolic, it is a slap on the wrist.

external palestinians are subject to military courts whereas the settlers are subjected to civilian courts. if you compare that to palestinians they can face a jail sentence of 20 years for throwing a stone. >> thank you for coming to talk to us on this newshour. well they are getting ready to move a bit of debris, maybe from mh370 from a french island. fremple investigators are going to try this weekend to see whether it is what they think it is. the latest from reunion. >> this rocky beach people watch from the sky. perhaps there's more to find.

philippe's find, now he thinks this bottle made in indonesia could be another clue. so he's taking it to the police. >> translator: i have 30 walkers and every morning before we start we will check the sea and if we find something we will call the police. >> the discovery of wreckage has made the small island nltd indianin theindian ocean an important link. the flight disappeared between kuala lumpur and beijing in the fall of last year. the part found is the same as was mh370. >> i'm happy for the families. now they know for sure they perished. >> reporter: while the wreckage is wrapped for transportation for investigators to examine it, the deep sea

search continues. it may not reveal why the plane changed course less than an hour after takeoff or anything else that happened on board. but thousands of kilometers to the east of reunion island. looking out of the vast indian ocean, it's something of a miracle any debris could have made it this far. but if that piece of wreckage is proven to come from mh370 it could be the only part of it ever found. now beach is attracting curious locals. they watch and speculate. the wreckage may reveal some answers but the mystery is far from solved. tanya page, al jazeera reunion island. >> they're going to be looking at all this in a french city near toulouse. charles stratford is waiting to see what happens next. >> reporter: that piece of debris is going to be brought here to this aeronautical

investigation center, trying to firm up and get some confirmation as to indeed whether it was attached to a boeing 777 or mh370. they are going to be looking for what is broadly described as data tags, any kind of markings that would suggest previous repairs, repairs of the plane that they can trace back to a particular aircraft. they are also going to be looking at the age of the material, at how long it has spent in the ocean. now already oceanographers are stating it's not inconceivable this piece of debris could have floated from the area authorities believe the plane may have come down. now already the malasian authorities are saying that they have confirmation that indeed this piece of metal this debris is from a boeing 777.

but it's highly unlikely that the friends and loved ones of the victims of this tragedy are going to believe that. they want to see proof. we've heard this before, we've heard this a number of occasions last year so it's very much hoped that for the first time in more than a year since this tragedy happened we're looking at the beginnings of getting some closure for the victims of mh370. >> 11 soldiers have been killed in a suicide bombing in anbar province in iraq. suicide bomber from the islamic state of iraq and the levant, i.s.i.l, used a military vehicle on an attack on an army and police convoy which was on its way to el sacra near haditha. fighting on the iraqi government, continues near the country's biggest oil refinery

central government nor from the u.s. the americans have only trained 200 sunni recruits with live weapons so far. we need at least 20,000 well trained fighters to defeat i.s.i.l. >> reporter: getting the sunni tribes in iraq to join the fight against i.s.i.l. has been tough. there is a precedent to all of this. it was the sawahs the american backed sunni fighters that defeated al qaeda in iraq and they say they can do the same again against i.s.i.l. in iraq. they do say they need money weapons and training, that they say they're not getting from the u.s. or the central government. imran khan, al jazeera anbar. >> back seat for eebl, which ebola 100% effective on the cases it's
