sides of the conflict of violating international humanitarian law. violence breaks out in the occupied west bank between israeli forces and supporters of jailed palestinian teenager had a meaning marching into the future then you had the south africa's ruling party promises to stamp out corruption and restore nelson mandela's mission. the u.s. pacific command has detected a missile threat to hawaii. and the moment hawaiian television was interrupted by a false alarm over an impending missile strike. and i'm peter sims in doha with all the day's sports news as the twenty eighteen african nations championship kicks off in morocco the host to playing mauritania in the opening game mormeck later this news hour.
12:02 am
for starters there has been given access to an unpublished u.n. report that chronicles the extent of human rights violations and documents possible war crimes in yemen the findings presented to the security council are shocked a critical of saudi led coalition airstrikes which of course is the majority of civilian deaths in the war the report also bolsters kids ations by the us that iranian weapons have been just for supplies to hooty rebels which breaks a u.n. embargo the united arab emirates is accused of running torture camps in yemen where people have allegedly been beaten and given electric shocks the report paints a devastating picture of a conflict which has left more than ten thousand people dead and led to widespread famine and displacement diplomatic editor james face who saw the report has more. this is a report to the u.n. security council has not been made public it's only been given to the fifteen
12:03 am
members of the security council but i've been allowed to read a copy and it's very hard hitting and very critical of all of the parties in the war in yemen it questions whether yemen can continue to be one country it says in the south because of the length of the war in the divisions that have emerged there is the real possibility of secession into a separate south yemen it says in the south of the country people displaying the flag of the old country of south yemen and are not loyal to president had he although they're formally under his command it says that president heidi has no longer effective command and control of the military and security forces in the south of yemen it says one of the reasons that there is this lack of stability in yemen is actually the forces that have been built up by the saudi led coalition it says that there are proxy units that they have drawn up but it says that these units will do more to further the fragility of yemen then they will do to hold the
12:04 am
state together it says they pose a threat to peace and stability in yemen it is also very critical of the coalition for civilian casualties in yemen it says that it appears that the saudi led coalition has not been following international humanitarian law and it says it's likely that some of those who are responsible for planning and executing airstrikes fall under the designation of the security council as people who should be subject to sanctions again the another damning part of the report is about the u.n. a part of the coalition in the camps there running inside yemen it says that there has been torture in these camps it talks about beatings electrocution constrain suspension the use of what it. the cage which is confinement in a cage in the sunlight and the denial of medical treatment it says working with the
12:05 am
government of yemen gives the u.a.e. plausible deniability so it is a possibility are now now given this report by the panel of experts that the security council must consider whether there should be sanctions against members of the coalition and also sanctions against iran because the who these sides are also criticized it says that there have been military remnants of military equipment and drone that are of raney an origin and were introduced in yemen after the security council adopted an arms embargo. while peter sounds very as a senior consulting fellow with the middle east and north africa program at chatham house he says their report shows yemen is fragmenting into several regional conflicts and a fresh approach to peace may be necessary the issue that we have right now if we have is we have a un the peace process which is really fixed focused on the idea of
12:06 am
a single conflict a binary conflict between who these formerly the who the seller alliance on one side and the government of yemen backed by saudi arabia on the other and when in reality what you have is multiple interlinked sort of overlapping conflicts going on and rivalries going on so that if a peace deal is reached simply between the who is on the one hand and the government of yemen on the other hand that means that you're excluding a lot of different groups who are very involved in the conflict who have control over different areas and that in turn creates incentives for them to generate new conflict again in the future so we might see that the big war the big conflict that we're looking at from the outside ending descend into a series of smaller conflicts for for regional autonomy. and dozens of pro hoofy women have demonstrated in a protest in yemen's capital sana'a who feel leaders called on female supporters to
12:07 am

12:22 am
of religion in contrast created by israeli settlers she's witnessed attacks of israeli settlers and then always she has become a symbol for symbol of things that she is a symbol of children who are oppressed. and children who are put in jail in this very deviance in violation of international law she is also representing palestinian news in addition of those who believe in our of nonviolent resistance and the power of popular nonviolent resistance. movement is growing during the last fifteen years. very good the struggle of the first palestinian intifada which was very widely used all over the palestinian to test of course because frankly i think she is she had a presence the palestinian struggle against the violations of our human rights
12:23 am
before we idolise had too much she did break the law she did strike an israeli soldier which has gone obviously viral all over the world so she should be punished for that shouldn't she. your question is wrong i think the question that should be asked is what was the israeli soldier doing house what these israeli soldiers who were. on to their teeth with with guns with all kinds of weapons while you were inside the house. she was just defending their house against their violations against attacks against the violence if this has happened in the united states that would be justifying. the owner of the house with troops. so the problem is the soldiers were intruding into his house all she did was to slap one of them in response to their violence and they had arms and they've just
12:24 am
shot. seriously and critically her cousin who is one of the i'm not sure in the united states even in the even that you can you can strike a soldier even if he comes into your property but this kind of moving on if she is sent to prison and she could indeed get a lengthy prison sentence this in a way well well all my small to her want to and will end up making him even more popular. in the united states they shoot people even without them intruding into their houses and in the case of palestine and israel. israeli soldiers have been shooting though of children during the last the israeli army itself has admitted that during the last. two years they have killed two or two hundred and one palestinians. without trial so we are talking about very vicious behavior of the israeli army if she is put in jail she will she will stand fast and
12:25 am
she will come out more of a freedom fighter for palestine if she is not i mean i will not to really concentrate on the the attention on one person but to be honest with you there are now hundreds of palestinian children who have suffered and who are struggling to survive and it is a whole palestinian population that is under military occupation for a fifty years the longest to keep pushing a modern history and there are generations of palestinian children who have been displaced from their homeland this is our struggle for freedom and i think all the condemnation should go to the army that is creating the not when you keep patients but a system of racial discrimination and apartheid in palestine very good to get your thoughts mustapha go to thanks very much for joining us from ramallah thank you. and the artistic creative one of the best i can it depictions a shake of our air has also produced a likeness of

12:34 am
al-jazeera i mean quickly if you could just sum up your reaction when you saw these warnings that a missile strike was imminent. i was in it with my wife i thought we were going have a nice relaxing day you sure the emergency alert and in her way we get them there could be a tsunami threat it could be a hurricane although that would give you more time to prepare but when i checked my watch and then my phone processing that message i turned she why was my brain just froze i had no idea that i could see something like that now of course it took quite a few minutes for them to admit that it was a false alarm which i'm guessing as call some anger among stapling who i oh most definitely and of course that's still you know enough time to start bringing your family together i decided to let my youngest son sleep my middle son was freaking out and we were trying to find information you turn on the t.v. it's information infomercials and sports but then you get that automated message
12:35 am
that only reinforces that something is actually happening if i wasn't a twitter addict it probably would have been an even worse place because it was clear on twitter that it was a false alarm probably in about ten minutes but it took almost forty minutes for official word to come through the state channels that told us that it might happen now an investigation was launched was analysis it was going to be lois quite quickly are they any closer to realizing whether it was human error exactly what happened to make this this time must take mistake. there was a cross interview with our governor the head of the emergency manager association it was a shift change happens three times a day three hundred sixty five days a year somehow someone pushed the wrong button that it was how it would described fortunately bernie i.e. the head of the emergency department said this is on me it's my responsibility they're going to reassess how that happened but it's that with the recent argument over how big buttons are on people's desks i thought it was almost fitting that it was the wrong button that basically sent away into
12:36 am
a panic for those few minutes and how do people now trust the system that if that something else comes up how they're going to actually believe that what they're saying or herring is right whether it's a false alarm or a natural strong well we've had the possibility of a strike in the news for months there was coverage of us coming up with a plan here and false alarm or not new i mean we get a lot of tsunami alerts whenever there's an earthquake and we just have to sit in wait and see i think the bad news is that this was the first time like this and the timeframe is so small i mean ten minutes is barely enough time to kiss everybody and say goodbye text your coworkers and tell them how you feel and i think that level of panic is going to be something we have to be prepared for more i thought i was a prepared person that my ham radio operator i'm always into the news and suddenly i was even with panic so i can imagine what it was like for everybody oh well we have you know i have to go through that again ryan as al at thank you very much for joining us on al-jazeera my pleasure glad i'm here. the military in democratic
