consecutive friday of palestinian demonstrations the protests. have returned for refugees at least forty one people have been killed over the past few weeks let's go live to gaza israel border to tell us what's been happening stephanie. a lot of tear gas jane in the last two hours or so the crowds aren't as big as we've seen in the last couple of fridays and that's because many people would tell you that they're preparing for the bigger protest so not so what they call the catastrophe seventieth anniversary of the start as operation of the state of israel that will be on monday but certainly you've been seeing a lot of tear gas being thrown not just to that crowd as opposed to the fence but also to the positions where we are there is a sort of protest tent area set up from behind we are they've been throwing it over our heads and around this area but no one is deterred you'll see people run back from the tear gas and then they'll run back towards the fence we've also counted

probably at least ten a gunshot wound sniper fire. on mostly young men who are close to the fence but again that doesn't deter them jane you've seen people come here that were shot before and that will come back again and go right up to the fence and that's because they will tell you that they really have nothing less left to lose situation here in gaza living here under blockade for eleven years has become that desperate and that difficult and what's the plan stephanie in the lead up to knock bonnano you've been speaking to members of hamas as well what have they told you. yes well there isn't no one will tell you exactly what the plan is but i think there is a sense that it's going to be huge not only because of course it is in the interest of hamas to have that real show of an armed protesters at the border but the people here and you will speak to them and whether it's the youth jane who are angry and frustrated whether it's the elderly who are you know having four or five of their

children some of them in their forty's living who can't afford to pay their own rent you can't afford younger ones who can't afford to get married there is a sort of momentum that's been building up here over the last seven fridays and really everyone it seems to that we've been speaking to promote ever side of society will be coming here during month not by not just here jane they are intending to really protest all along this fence and again we heard from with just in you are the head of hamas yesterday said this is reminding people this is not an internationally established border this is a fence that israel has created so he was also we were in a press conference with him yesterday the first army he had a sort of q. and a with the foreign media and one journalist also well what do you expect and what are you going to do to ensure the safety of your own people and he said well hey they are on armed they have the right to protest they have a right for this kind of activity but be said what would be wrong with you know tens of thousands of people breaking on a border fence that is an internationally recognized i think we're going to have to

wait and see some of the youth we spoke to here said we're not going to tell you what we're going to do but i think it is something to march we are expecting tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people to show up along this border on monday at seven a day thank you. the rain in foreign ministry has responded to israel's the biggest attacks in syria for decades a spokesman described wednesday night strikes on dozens of targets as an illegal act of aggression based on a fabrication excuse the israeli prime minister hasn't ruled out further action he-man tains iranian forces in syria have fired rockets at israeli positions in the occupied golan heights. russia's leading global calls for deescalation and iran's foreign minister will travel to moscow for talks on monday then has more reaction from to her. in perhaps the harshest words we've heard so far a senior iranian cleric warned that israeli cities face destruction if that country continues to act quote foolishly ayatollah cut to me was speaking at friday prayers

that on university regarding israeli strikes on syria he had this warning that in august we will expand our missile capabilities despite western pressure to curb it to let israel know that if it acts foolishly tell of even hafer would be totally destroyed hatami is a member of the council of experts an eighty eight member body that elects iran's supreme leader he's also a political hard liner and has been a harsh critic of the two thousand and fifteen nuclear deal he also gave his view of the u.s. pullout from that agreement embodies america cannot do it thing they have always been after toppling of iran's regime and they say it is in line with that aims these european signatories also cannot be trusted iran's enemies cannot be trusted them use words come as a ron's foreign minister zarif prepares to embark on a diplomatic tour to meet with the remaining signatories of the nuclear agreement

in an effort to in some form preserve that deal the clerics words are a sign that hardliners have been emboldened here in iran and that moderates the government of president hassan rouhani are not only in a fight to try and preserve the nuclear agreement abroad they're also in a fight here at home to try and maintain the political futures and back talking about the new kid deal european leaders are scrambling to save the agreement germany france and britain are vying to keep the twenty fifteen agreement alive following the u.s. decision to walk away as some of europe's biggest companies have billions of dollars on the line in france airbus agreed a twenty five billion dollars deal to supply more than one hundred aircraft oil giant total was said to invest five b. . dollars in south park the world's largest gas field carmakers rainer and persian made deals worth around five hundred million each german companies with interests

include the mercedes own a dime daimler and fox wagon siemens was in talks to develop iran's rail network and if it was set to explore fields the u.k. has less on the line but royal dutch shell and british petroleum were in talks to develop the oil industry telecoms company vodafone wanted to invest in the mobile network attach a bottle has more from paris. or french government ministers have been working very hard on a plan to try and reduce minimize or even get rid of the impact of u.s. sanctions on french companies working in iran there's a sense of urgency here certainly a sense of frustration we heard from the french foreign minister a bit earlier saying europeans should not be made to pay for the fact the united states has decided to pull out of the iran deal now we have a host of french multinationals that have been working with iran ever since sanctions were lifted in twenty sixteen we're talking about companies like car

makers renault citron drug companies sanity and of course energy giant hotel that has invested very heavily in gas fields in iran french finance minister bruno lemaire has been very busy trying to rally people around he says europe needs to step up and do more and he says france is going to try and present some measures to block these sanctions the impact of them on french companies to the european commission in the next few days now that. it's high time for europe to move from words to actions in terms of economic sovereignty its hard time it develops the same instruments that the u.s. has to defend its economic interest. well only on friday we heard from one iranian minister who said that the european plane maker airbus is going to give a decision in the coming days on whether or not it will continue with its deal with

iran and i basically signed a deal with iran they're back in twenty sixteen to deliver one hundred planes it was a deal worth billions of dollars but in this climate of uncertainty nobody knows what is going to happen next singapore will host the first meeting between the u.s. and north korean leaders on june the twelve president donald trump announced the date and location on twitter he previously said he wanted to meet kim jong un in the demilitarized zone on the border between north and south korea the u.s. wants pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons program. so the relationship was good and hopefully i mean for all of us for the world hopefully something very good is going to happen and they understand it's very important for them it's important for everybody so japan south korea china everybody i think it's going to be a very big success but my attitude is and it isn't it isn't ok if it
