12:01 am
maimed hundreds of palestinian protesters along the fence between gaza and israel well netanyahu has also approved new illegal settlements he's also expanded existing ones and then there's the nation state law which defines israel as a jewish state's effectively downgrading non jews to second class citizenship harry force that has more from west jerusalem she's going to. remain become a four years ago benjamin netanyahu pushed the responsible to the goose in a facebook video on polling day he used fears of the palestinian israeli vote to mobilize his own core support. for that but in this campaign israel's prime minister has deployed race as an issue unapologetically and much earlier in the piece is most controversial move drink criticism from moderates at home and jewish organizations in the u.s. has been to engineer a coalition of smaller right wing parties that. includes the supremacist jewish
12:02 am
power one of whose candidates has been barred from standing for inciting racism against palestinians from all parties incitement to racism against the palestinians in general and the palestinian minority in particular against the leadership of the pristina minority clear statements that they are not part of the political pratik game in israel. one of the tim yahoos lines of attack against his main rival blue and white party has been that they would need the support of palestinian israeli parties to block him from forming a coalition that was taken up by israeli model lawyer and t.v. presenter returned salah who used her instagram page to ask and what's the problem with the arabs calling on the government to tell people they lived in a country of all its citizens and all people are born equal israel's prime minister engaged telling his own six million strong social media following an important correction israel is not a country of all its citizens adding israel is the nation state of the jewish
12:03 am
nation and it's alone israeli jews are concerned and in some cases with good reason about the attitudes to israel of the duly elected arab leadership and therefore he's tapping into something that you know has some that exists and has some basis i would say for lots of israelis but he's taking it into. very disharmonious directions netanyahu denies a few division insisting his likud party has served the interests of palestinian israelis benjamin netanyahu is throwing everything he can at this campaign as he battles to stay in office face down corruption charges and cement his legacy but his opponents say that legacy will be permanently tainted by the way he's chosen to fight this election are a force of al-jazeera westerners. a quarter century on from the day it began rwanda is remembering the more than eight
12:04 am
hundred thousand victims of the genocide the campaign of killing targeted the tutsi people most were beaten or hacked with. i. oh. president began the commemorations by lighting a flame at the could galley genocide memorial war than two hundred fifty thousand of the victims are believed to be burry the at the site it's the only a conclusion. for all but one does a story is profound hope. no community. is beyond repair and the dignity of the people is never fully extinguished and the prime minister of belgium rwanda's former colonial rulers said his country is willing to confront the past so as you see.
12:05 am
this genocide represents the failure of the international community which couldn't war which couldn't prevent which couldn't stop this crime against humanity i stand before you in the name of a country that also wants to take responsibility for its part in history anderson means joining us from golly to talk us through the coming my race and andrew and how the day has panned out. well but the tone set by those two excerpts from the speeches gives you an idea of what sort of mood there is it has to be said that despite the the lights from the flame of remembrance there is such darkness still hanging over a window specially for the victims who recall the events so much more vividly every time there's an anniversary but the relevance of this twenty fifth's this quarter century landmark is being pushed in
12:06 am
a certain direction that is the new generation the generation that didn't experience the horrors of the nine hundred ninety four what hope for them there is a there is a bold new bright future in many ways in terms of the economy for this country and the way the poca gummi is running things although he does have his critics obviously because he's been in power of his since that whole genocide was over and he has extended his term controversially again after three terms effected through the rule he is seems to be an indefinite. sort of mileage to this presidency but the point is this that as he pointed out later in his speech that sixty percent of the population of have had no experience of the genocide that there has been so many people now looking back on it not through the eyes of horror of experience but
12:07 am
through the eyes of their loved ones who experienced the worst the losses engage the injuries engage so that has been a theme that's very much being put to the fore and he did actually say that it's really not forgiven don't forgive and forget but forgive and remember that was the emphasis he put on all of this and of course internationally there is an acceptance there was being beefed up what you heard from the belgian prime minister there there is this acknowledgement now that the massive mistakes made not only by the united nations but by belgium france has admitted in the past in twenty ten nicolas sarkozy visited this country and said that france which obviously was on the side of the hutus ahead of the genocide it politically was of a line to the hutus he had said that there were mistakes made the women states although there's always been a denial by the french that there was any involvement in training the entire harm
12:08 am
way the militias involved in the awful hacking to death and raping of of the civilians of rwanda so there is a really. several a multi multi factional aspect to all of this but the most needy the most moving in the most strongest aspects really you see in the faces in the eyes of the survivors who marched walked a remembrance walk from the government buildings the parliament of rwanda now arriving here in the national stadium and filling it this is a thirty thousand seater stadium and it's already you know it's already. at least three quarters full and we're still a least an hour away from proceedings start taking place here we'll see some community. events you're seeing the young people at the white t. shirts we're expecting a performance from them we're expecting some sort of. lighting show there are
12:09 am
a number of other community spirited events to give people a feeling of unity a feeling of strengths for the future our writer and or simmons reporter from the thank you so our sunday is mostly about honoring the many who were killed it's also a time to reflect on stories of survival including this man who was just a child when the killings began in one thousand nine hundred four. a marine named dinners are. thirty four years. tina said roland inside a survivor. i was in to carry him out when the genocide started. the law is a member of the family between one hundred people and one fifteen people the genocide was like ten years because one day you can you can't like one month because every time they hear how way to kill tutsis and you say today is
12:10 am
my last day. i got. a chance because one of my neighbor. was also. the two. muslim. us. and. god the one who had a plan to survive the genocide or remember one of my uncle. was good. at that like my father to give. sometimes. a gift in the christmas in the new year and there we used to dance with me he went to see we don't know really where you please but his skill . you know about the young generation you don't think about what or to attend to his wonder because we don't have it's nick now just speak the same language we have
12:11 am
the same character. we have to some food have we seen these a wonder you don't think about what to and to see sometimes i have my dreams by the genocide. they put it in because. i have to tell the people is to have a hope for their life because even your prayer your family members are day is not the end of life. you have to walk think positively. and to give the love for everybody. it's a simple life. let's go back to the protests in sudan we were telling you about and speak to. the sudanese american journalist he is joining us via skype from virginia thanks for speaking to us on the al-jazeera news hour so we are reporting that
12:12 am
sudan's president has met with army leaders to discuss the latest anti-government protests going on saturday saw the largest protests in front of the army headquarters what do you think is going on behind the scenes. i think the government is looking into ways to deal with it you ation what happened on saturday april sixth i think is a game changer in this wave of protest i personally did not expect that large number of people. make a sit in right in front of the army's headquarters and stay that long in the party not to intervene in the ways that it has done in the past so i think the the government is really assessing how it will handle the coming weeks and with with the appeal of the entry of this wave of protests and any indication that the army is going to side with the protesters and how seriously do you think the army takes the protesters demands and calling for a best see it and in fact the entire regime to go. well what we're seeing i mean
12:13 am
some of the images that are coming out of cartoon show that soldiers even. middle and somewhat high ranking. merging with the protesters dressing them you know not firing on them i think that tells you something whether you know there's been suggestions that there is seems to be some thing of a division between the army and security and intelligence forces and how to deal with this whether the army actually will respond to the demand. that they. help in removing the president i think that remains to be seen there's nothing that indicates. decisively that that will happen but i think definitely in how the government is dealing with the code test that shows you that
12:14 am
there is seriously serious. divisions or or or a different strategy at least in how to deal with and beyond some countries who have reportedly off for the best seed safe haven how would you assess the reaction from the international community and speak to us from virginia what kind of support would you like to see from the u.s. government. i think the international community and regionally are looking at the sudan station very carefully i think one thing that will be sure successfully has done is to make themselves to various interests in the region and globally the u.s. is main concern so that is. our issues of security the u.s. does not want to see sudan become another libya or yemen and i think at the moment it seems that these governments globally or better have interests in sudan like us what's your china. are going to waiting to see what exactly will happen now before
12:15 am
they take any decisive move. all right. we thank you for speaking to us. syrian government forces have killed at least fourteen people in the northwest that happens in the countryside that was the hardest hit as the last rebel held territory in syria it's supposed to be free of fighting under a deal negotiated by russia and turkey. we're getting reports from saudi state media that a security checkpoint has been attacked with explosives in. that's about five hundred kilometers northeast of the capital riyadh it's understood two people were killed and two others have been arrested and an airstrike by saudi u.a.e. coalition forces has hit a school in yemen killing at least five children dozens more were wounded in the attack on a residential area east of the capital sanaa witnesses described scenes of panic.

12:22 am
travelling on highways is becoming difficult to lift during an emergency but i couldn't reach my destination people a very scared. staying in indian administered kashmir where researchers say government's attempts at blocking the internet during protests have hurt the region's development burnouts reports. is reliant on the internet as most entrepreneurs anyway she sells the kashmiri addresses to customers worldwide but in india not administered kashmir this is central tool of modern business is cut sometimes several times a month without warning by the government i have. to. make us to move those and i have created. everything online only so far that i need in. and right now we are ingrained the first century and we have every day to use it in but we had

12:26 am
labeled operation liberty in actual fact it's an attempt to gauge just how successfully they can continue to bring supporters out onto the streets not just here but throughout than israela. they want to show that they have not grown tired or afraid despite increased threats from armed paramilitary groups loyal to the government who fire tear gas and he didn't bullets at protesters but put this if it is says she's not afraid. but you know is incompetent he talks about socialism but he lives like a millionaire like an imperialist but we haven't had any water in my neighborhood for more than a year. and the. opposition leader apologized for the improvised stage and the poor sound quality he said intelligence police operatives have confiscated for generators and two trucks for the rally and arrested the drivers are going to run in like they have. it's just not water and
12:27 am
electricity that we are demanding no we're here to demand freedom and democracy food education and a future and nothing until we achieve it. but nearly three months into the standoff is on the offensive tuesday the supreme court which is no oil to the government stripped of his legislative immunity which means he can be arrested at any moment despite warnings of retaliation from the united states the sign reads the next exit is meet a flautist meet a flood is the presidential palace but it is wishful thinking if these people believe that president nicolas maduro is going anywhere anytime soon and so the real task of the opposition leaders now is to try to keep these people out on the streets for the long haul. the large demonstration in caracas was. but in the northern city of by cable riot police fired tear gas and rubber bullets at
12:28 am
protesters why the lead needed that more sacrifices are needed. but it is most sobering message was directed at those who are calling for u.s. military intervention why those says it's up to the nines wayland's to lead the charge for regime change a clear reference to the trumpet ministrations recent admission that military action is not in the car the now. see in human and just. so a few moments ago we were telling you about all forty is an indian administered kashmir have banned the movement in civilian vehicles on an important highway in the region happy man jacob is the director of the conflict monitor and also professor of law and the her university is joining us via skype from new delhi thanks for speaking to us on the al-jazeera news hour so the order says that the ban was called to prevent any attacks by india rebels during india's general election starting on thursday how do you assess this move is this simply a precautionary measure the authorities are taking. and it is
12:29 am
important to understand better if i have been about forty four it is that lifeline call many of the fish it is living in this couple lives on even the fact that this man has no radio connectivity has no time for things that it is so you order to deny days you can eat this not to go higher being added i understand why the government is doing it that they both infected ready we had ever imagined that i said that if he did force that this be a part of who are you all this you know to be it was the fact that it was the apostle just waiting and absolutely government is taking precautions to make sure that that i'm not the actions that i'm no more at that that you give me you did it on the basis for the ways i think that is at least in the oddly good this is going to be. look at his book it is the state of divine. just said that this is the highways in fact the lifeline for many people that live in the area so what
12:30 am
impact is this already having on the rural population he just operative is so even back to east. do be very clear in the weeks to come in the days to come but clearly those wanting to access health care facilities it would be in that in the state capital in state that i would not be able to do that. those wanting to access education institutions and even say they're going to not be able to do that i'm generally probably examining on this road for example how we got the thousand a week it was like to be consumed one thousand cuts taking this in order on a daily basis all of them will be shut off on two days a week and remember this is a big heavy heavy militarized zone if it be at this meeting is one of the most militarized places in the in the world as it were and this is going to have an impact and not only on the livelihoods of people this would also have a negative negations for the upcoming elections because you have if
12:31 am
a nation that is this affected by what is happening in this beauty you have a population that is alienated from india for all practical purposes that this will put it there and this is a clearly. essence negatively guests for the water tower that you can nest in the upcoming national elections in india ok we'll leave it there we thank you for joining us from new delhi the speaker of iran's parliament has warned the u.s. that to han will respond if washington puts the revolutionary guard on a terror list on our zani has been speaking to al jazeera that i don't think that the united states has lost its mind to the sixten and it's a trump conducts business unusual way he's smart enough to know that if the united states tightly step it will mean that the u.s. military be considered a terrorist scrape the u.s. does it the name of ten they step the army and the pentagon will be considered terrorist groups. greece is trying to offer education to young refugees on the
12:32 am
islands but getting children into classes is proving difficult local say already scant resources are already being stretched so far refugee parents are concerned about greek schools. has more from. naveed ahmadi is a fifteen year old afghan who dreams of becoming a civil engineer he missed a year of school while his family made its way from iran to greece something he can ill afford if he has to and to university now he has enrolled in a high school on summers but some local parents don't want refugees like interviewed mingling with their children one reason appears to be that refugees live in squalor four thousand of them packed in and around a camp meant for six hundred fifty naveed is lucky to live in a mobile home for most there is no proper sewage no electricity and no washing facilities we try to have the same life as we have the best that's.
12:33 am
this is our situations don't we can't do anything. they can israel we don't. we can't do anything many refugees opt for informal education offered by private charities that also gives them a break from the difficulties of camp life formal education for refugees and asylum seekers is a recent development here for them. when a representative from the great center for disease control came to talk to parents he said we're looking at a public health timebomb to shop basically vaccinated they get a single shot for measles mumps and rubella that doesn't mean it's going moment requirements refugees who arrive on the aegean islands are kept here for much of their asylum process in case they have to be deported back to neighboring turkey so they've been seen by many as a temporary population when the government offered education to asylum seekers and
12:34 am
twenty sixteen refugees living on the islands were left out but the asylum process is so slow they are now stuck here for years last september the government extended education to island refugees about thirty haven't rolled so far here on some us but as many as a thousand a logical that's equal to two thirds of the local greek school population many of the people of south most and other reste agend islands consider that an unfair burden on the school system some of the ceiling some of us have shouldered all the refugee burden for europe's sake we've been left to our fate and people are worn out we don't have a problem with refugees we've got a problem with those who are responsible for the situation. greece and especially the islands of the east to jian act as europe's buffer against irregular migration from turkey most seem resigned to that fate but here at the border they want to europe to do a better job of demonstrating its humanitarian values. algis are some of us
12:35 am
we were talking earlier about rival rallies in venezuela by supporters of president mandela on the opposition leader. maduro on why though blamed each other for the electricity out insurance plaguing the country a style here from jamal shell who was with the president's supporters the president nicolas maduro put out the call to supporters and they heeded that will thousands of them taking to the streets of central correctness to show that them back to president still enjoys a lot of support amongst the people men and women young and old we've gathered here to show that not only they supports president nicolas maduro but they are them and three opposed to the u.s. sanctions imposed against venezuela let's speak to a couple of them house the first why why are you here today but. i must say we are gravy and we need to stand with president nicholas mother would and the socialist i want to show until the very end we want to mate they will grow at their out of
12:36 am
place and move. well that's one of the fuse obviously one of the things that hit us has been banking on is not the continuous power shortages and water cuts would make people turn against the president's charm or to ask this gentleman here with these weird touch shortages i'm an electricity cuts doesn't know made you lose faith in the government not through the mandate but again it's absolutely not we know disk tactics are meant to break us but we will resist we need achieve southam powermat we know that in paris is a reality so we must resist it. thank you now aside from showing their support to nicolas maduro the head. message that is also expressed by the people gathered these large crowds in caracas is that they want to support their revolution they believe that the foreign intervention as they've described that particular from the united states is an attempt to defeat the socialist revolution here and they say
12:37 am
that they are against any foreign intervention that they are in support of the president and that they are here to defend the revolution. has shut down an ethics body recently set up to review its work in artificial intelligence lead the says and follows concerns over some of the appointees including a petition from employees over the alleged anti-gay an anti immigrant views off one member the debate over the ethics panel has also prompted one member to resign still ahead on the al-jazeera news hour the sports news and oxford versus cambridge find out who won the university boat race. a city defined by military occupation there's never been an arab state here with the capital of jerusalem everyone is welcome but this depôt structure that meant is because only project that's what we defuse it was one of the founders of the
