1:02 pm
appearance at augusta since twenty fifteen. welcome to the program bereaved family members of the ten palestinians killed in friday's protests are preparing for their funerals israeli forces have killed at least thirty protesters since last week there been mass demonstrations along the israel gaza border since last friday thousands of people have been camping there to demand the right of return for palestinian refugees and the biggest hospital in gaza has declared a state of emergency because of a severe shortage of supplies since last friday no medical aid has been delivered to the besieged coastal strip and that's because the key crossing to get goods in has been closed by the israelis to observe the jewish holiday of passover is due to reopen on sunday well this year only one hundred forty five truckloads of medical supplies have made it into gaza which has been under crippling israeli land and sea
1:03 pm
blockade for twelve years well those supplies are not enough to treat about thirteen hundred palestinians have been injured by live fire from israeli forces over the past week and thirty three of them are in critical condition. well momma jump jim is live for us in ramallah in the occupied west bank but first let's go to hud who's outside a hospital in gaza all the reports of the hospitals are struggling to cope with the sheer numbers of palestinians injured and killed in these clashes what more can you tell us. is absolutely it's not only the sheer number i mean you have since the first day of the protests at about one thousand three hundred people who were hit by live ammunition it's also the fact that they all arrive at the hospital more or less at the same time i mean yesterday the protests there were very few casualties in the morning but india afternoon you had hundreds of casualties so
1:04 pm
that so you had hundreds of people pouring into the hospitals in that span about two to three hours are very difficult situation for doctors here for the medical staff here and also you have to bear in mind that there is shortages really spoke to do world health organization it. told us that two million dollars of between drugs and. disposable that are urgently needed but they're not able to get it into the gaza strip because of as you said earlier the jewish passover holiday that is supposed to end tomorrow or sunday but also because of the complications of getting anything into the gaza strip and how to just stood talk us through how the health system in gaza actually works. it is a very complicated system so what just bear in mind that under normal circumstances of that can you define that here in gaza doctors would tell you that they're
1:05 pm
already missing about forty five percent of what they need in drugs and about twenty seven percent of what they need in equipment so that's not during crisis time now for anything to come into the gaza strip where health officials here do put a forward a request to the palestinian authority in ramallah once that is approved it has to that request has to go to the israeli to the israeli coordinator of the crossings and it's only when you have that prior approval and prior coordination with the israeli side that everything can come into gaza and most of the time as according to what the conversations we had with doctors they can't get or what they need now there's also another issue there's some of the wounded here who do need to go elsewhere for treatment i was speaking for example earlier just a few minutes ago a patient who doctors told me might have to have his leg cut off dated
1:06 pm
simply because they can't treated me and now he has a paper that allows him to go to a nother hospital outside of the gaza strip in nablus in the occupied west bank well the regardless of the permit and that approval from the palestinian authority to pay for his medical treatment he still has to ask for permission to go through the crossing that permission is not only for do wounded but also for whoever a relative or friend whoever is going with him to that hospital where he's been waiting he didn't get that permit and that happens a lot another way to get out is through the rough across it was egypt and even if they do get. the paper from any hospital whether it's in egypt or even overseas that that hospital will it will take them in and will give them the treatment needed well the that border crossing is also closed so
1:07 pm
a lot of times you have ambulances that go through those crossings and then come back to the hospital of origin so certainly a very complicated situation not only to get the medicine in but also to get the the wounded out or it's a hot day in gaza thank you for that let's cross over now to mohammad jump june he's in ramallah in the occupied west bank mohammed one person who was hit and killed by israeli gunfire was a well known palestinian journalist what more can you tell us. there in the acid was a thirty year old palestinian journalist very well known here in this area he had a wife and a two year old child he was killed while he was covering the great march of return protests in gaza yesterday now he was wearing a blue bulletproof vest that was clearly marked with the word fresca on it that's one of the reasons this is drawing so much condemnation and outrage here we are in downtown in a model a dog fighting west bank and the last hour there was
1:08 pm
a commemoration service for yassir and there were members of the palestinian journalists and the kid who came out to show their solidarity with allison and journalist they say are at so much risk when ever they're covering anything in gaza now the journalist syndicate issued a statement earlier in which they accused the israeli army of continuing to commit deliberate crimes against palestinian journalists with the knowledge that they are journalists now what's interesting about what happened yesterday is it was nonviolent these protests now the people we spoke with here today say that even when palestinian journalists are covering on violent protests they are still made deliberately a target by israeli security forces and yesterday while protests were going on we were outside of the illegal israeli settlement in the occupied west bank now when we were there we spoke with many people who said how proud they were of the fact
1:09 pm
that these nonviolent protests were going on and that it reminded them of tactics that were used during the first intifada here's our report. in gaza palestinian demonstrators did what they could to frustrate israeli security forces. burning tires to obscure the view of soldiers using mirrors in an attempt to blind snipers tactics that reminded many of an earlier era of resistance and i'm so proud of the fact that now all palestinian groups. didn't come out you had thought that everybody i don't think this up which of peaceful nonviolent resistance which has proven to be the most effective way of dealing with patients with dealing with those that are a little bit ashamed of the palestinian people and this definitively brings us back to thirty principles said for the alliance and for going to a station and defiance of. these exactly what are the three principles that govern the feds and the fatah and that led to changing the balance of power. in the first
1:10 pm
intifada which began in december one thousand nine hundred seven marked the first time that palestinians from all parts of society began such an intense resistance to israeli occupation. in the beginning boys threw rocks and people marched later fighters began attacking israeli soldiers and military targets it ended in one thousand nine hundred three and by the time it was over more than one thousand one hundred people had died tires were also burned in the occupied west bank just outside the illegal israeli settlement of beit el where a small crowd of palestinian protesters gathered. throughout the day it was a game of cat and mouse that has become almost a regular occurrence on fridays after prayer incoming tear gas from israeli security forces would force them to run only to return a short time later hurling rocks activists say palestinian officials need more than ever to build trust one of the main things is just like to show them. met
1:11 pm
honestly away from the situation to tell exactly the people what are we can go out of the situation to see to people who want to see an end to twenty five years of useless. but hectic negotiations that has been the dust of the situation while officials may be disappointed at the dearth of demonstrators outside gaza they also feel their message this time will resonate with the international community what helps us a lot is the social media that ability of young palestinians to use social media and that on some it. actually. objectivity ality on the ground the fact that israel is a ruthless lee shooting civilians shooting peaceful demonstrate that this is unacceptable the expectations are high the great march of return will inspire more unity for the moment at least there is a small semblance of hope that seems to be rising above the usual political divisions. there and we are told that there are more demonstrations that will be
1:12 pm
held in other areas in the occupied west bank to commemorate the life of yassin more culture throughout the day among the journalist we spoke with here not just sadness that they were expressing not just the fact that they were mourning but also they were very much clearly calling on the u.n. to do more to protect journalists there in the right amount of jumping there in ramallah in the occupied west bank mohammed thank you. well on friday the u.s. blocked a u.n. security council statement endorsing calls for an independent investigation into the deaths of palestinian protesters the other fourteen security council members had agreed to the statement which also supported the right of palestinians to demonstrate peacefully the u.s. which is israel's closest ally blocked a statement last week as well. but more to come here on the news hour including under attack someone is caught between an escalating dispute over fishing rights between barra tenure and senegal. and colombia attempts to register the hundreds of thousands of venezuelans who fled from the economic and political turmoil back home
1:13 pm
and its board a milestone for women's football in the middle east details coming up without. not least forty civilians including eight children have been killed in the syrian government has trikes on the rebel held city of duma the raids ended a ceasefire that had been in place for almost two weeks while the government defended the shelling of do my saying it was in response to rebels killing civilians in neighboring damascus but it's reports. the skies over duma had been quiet for two weeks until friday residents counted more than fifty is strikes and say twenty barrel bombs were dropped on the city. it continued through dusk and into saturday. syrian state you said the assault was in retaliation for jaish al islam or the army of islam shelling recent chill areas of neighboring damascus it said four civilians were killed and twenty two injured. tonight the attack.
1:14 pm
the german duma is clearly visible syrian civil defense the white house descended on the rubble dodging the airstrikes. they risk you dozens of people this man was found under what was left of his heart. after the air attack tanks came down the road syrian soldiers tightening their grip on one of the last rebel strongholds in the country a defined judicial islam posted this photo after the u.s. strikes began the caption a commander and officer reinforce the city fronts of duma but the rebels territory is shrinking and the death toll climbing a deal between jaish al islam the russians and syrians have seen three waves of evacuations with more than four thousand fighters and their families leaving the city a fourth convoy was meant to leave on thursday but never did. many doctors and
1:15 pm
nurses have already left for those people pulled out of the rubble now treatment is becoming even more difficult to find challenge balance. doomer is in eastern guta the last remaining rebel stronghold near the syrian capital of damascus it's been under ferocious government air and ground offensive and that's dramatically altered the battle map well this was a state of play in eastern guta on the february eighteenth when there were nude military offensive began the rebels were firmly in control of the key towns and villages and this is how it looks now rebels have lost control of most of the territory except duma city is now the focus of the assad government's aerial bombardments and ground attacks. in the studio is my one on the director of policy analysis of the arab center for research at the institute marwan good to have you back this appears to be yet another major push by syrian and russian forces on the last rebel held area how significant is it what's the thinking behind it this is
1:16 pm
important because the capital of the eastern this is the most. borton the biggest city in the area and by capturing it actually they would be just finishing off all the presence of the opposition in this very important strategic area surrounding damascus not only that they would be evacuating the area from the most . position of course which is the army of islam the number of this army is i don't thin thousand fighters and by actually eliminating them or evacuating them from this area that would be actually securing the whole area and that's an important point you make about judicial islam because i mean does this final push now signal the collapse of this ten day cease fire deal that was supposed to evacuate the opposition fighters from last long well the original negotiations was. going from the very beginning to stay in the area under.
1:17 pm
agreement with the russians by saying we can administer the area and that of the flag of the regime but we'll keep our fighters inside there will police the area they will stay inside population will stay inside the city and we will accept the sovereignty of the regime on on the city or on the area this is something that seems to me not accepting that they are putting this pressure on the slum in order to evacuate the area and and just give it back to the government to see what happens now then to judge. because the russians as you say have been mediating between the group and the syrian government they say it's not an evacuation of force displacement well i think it is because if. the families of the. islam you have ten thousand fighters with you have like fifty to sixty thousand people are going to leave with them if they are actually accepted at the city this
1:18 pm
is why it's going to stay inside accepting the sovereignty of the sea. in government and under certain conditions they will be actually monitoring they would actually policing the area without actually having to evacuate don't forget that as i said before is that they were. and the population of the city actually is more one has more than one hundred thousand people so if you had this is a fourth of a huge portion of the of the area of pollution i mean that is something that is slowing actually with the russians by having some sort of an agreement with the russians not actually to do with mom but let's just look at the bigger picture if we can what's your overall assessment. now of the war in syria i mean how is president bashar al assad all but one this conflict and what happens now i think. i don't think we can talk about somebody some syrian winning this conflict because i think all the syrians have somehow lost you can talk about the russians winning the
1:19 pm
iranians winning the turks winning everybody might be winning actually but the syrians including the regime is not winning by because syria is almost intact as is destroyed it's divided the country the regime cannot actually have a hold on all the territories which used to be. before the regime now is controlling something like sixty percent of the size of syria so you still have forty percent of the regime controlled so i doubt it very much when when somebody says that he is winning is winning in the sense that it's the opposition could not actually bring it down if you are if you mean that winning it might be winning but when i talk about having control on the entire country of syria i think that he is not winning in this thank you very much thank you. now brazil's former president lula da silva is expected to hundred over to the police later on saturday to begin the twelve year jail term for corruption it's all his hours of negotiations after
1:20 pm
he missed a deadline set by a judge from reports. who learn his many supporters defied the oath or it is for as long as they could hear the metal workers union headquarters in sao paolo he missed the deadline to hand him self into the authorities he and his supporters maintaining his innocence of the corruption charges leveled against him. here we are here we are with the world looking at us everyone is accompanying us closely closely monitoring the situation that threatens our democracy. but lose options of run out the legal team has exhausted all appeals he will attend the ceremony to mark the birthday of his late wife and more trouble for the southern city of. a special jail cell awaits him to brazil is a country very much divided with many here believing that justice will only be done if his twelve year is one month sentence many others feel that he's the victim of
1:21 pm
a political prosecution to stop him running in october's presidential elections elections they fail he would almost certainly win. support for lula has also come from abroad from the left wing politicians in office across latin america what he led from two thousand and three to two thousand and. eight is an absurd trial that they have done to lula they have condemned him without any proof and the reality of what they're doing is outlawing the greatest political leader from being president . however many in brazil celebrating what they see is justice being done that even the once mighty must pay for their crimes. i came here just so i could see close up when these corrupt men lulac goes to prison guilty or innocent for him or against him the sight of lula being taken to prison is still one that will shake brazil. russia's foreign
