a task force to ensure the delivery of medical oxygen across the country as criticism months of the government's response to the covert 19 crisis. and the scottish national party values to push for a 2nd independence referendum after winning a 4th consecutive victory in parliamentary elections. it's been another violent night in occupied east jerusalem with israeli forces cracking down on palestinian protesters the palestinian red crescent says at least 80 people have been injured as armed police try to clear groups gathering in the city police have also blocked muslim pilgrims heading to the compound and comes after more than $200.00 people were injured in friday's violence that included the use of rubber coated steel bullets and stun grenades tension. have been running

high over a court order to forcibly evict palestinian families from their homes and in east jerusalem suburb forces live for us in occupied east jerusalem what's the situation now. well it's calmed down a little bit in the last 30 or 40 minutes the israeli security forces have pretty much cleared a great deal of the square here close to damascus gate they are filtering people who are allowing access into the old city itself but this follows several hours of pretty continuous. patterns of skirmishes where there would be brief respite ites before again they would either be bottles thrown plastic bottles thrown by palestinian protesters or seemingly without immediate provocation israeli security forces would move in and use stun grenades. some tear gas limited

the chemically laced skunk water as it's known from a truck to clear protesters we also saw a pretty. full on physical violence at close quarters being used as well as people wrestled to the ground beaten and then in many instances just sent away again without being arrested or or processed processed in any kind of a way so that has been the patent throughout the night it hasn't been potentially quite the level of violence that we saw on friday but it is another indication of just how tense the situation remains and it certainly has not calmed down yet ari is there any indication how this all began. well i mean the start of the most recent round of of tensions really was the start of the muslim holy month of ramadan and it's worth saying as well that this is the holiest night of ramadan. and that is why so many people. 90000 has been reported

made their way to the mosque for prayers but since the beginning of ramadan when the decision was taken by security forces to barricade off this area where people come and meet after prayers to have drinks and snacks and talk this was barricaded off for many days of course protests there were counter protest by who are right israeli racist activists and as well as that there is this continuing issue of sir we're just seeing if there is any further action minus this continuing issue of the looming evictions of several families from a palestinian neighborhood in occupied east jerusalem which is going through a court process which is june to have another hearing in the supreme court on monday. that's the same day that jews mark what they call jerusalem day the start of the occupation in $167.00 so this is all coming together these multifarious

factors all part of a very longstanding grievances and after as well it must be said 15 months of severe coronavirus restrictions but all of this seeming to come together in a perfect storm of tension that we haven't seen the likes of for several years in this city thanks very much that's how the fossa talking to us from damascus gates in occupied east jerusalem let's bring in. secretary-general of the palestinian national initiative political party is joining us by skype from ramallah thanks very much indeed for being with us ari was saying that this has been described as a perfect storm how bad do you think this could get. it's a bad idea because what you see here is this lection of a system of racism and discrimination against palestinians not only we have been under occupation for more than 54 years but on top of that is there and has established a system of apartheid and additional discrimination that the vast majority of

palestinians today are the prohibited somebody changes a live man but it's a bit in the in the period in the mosque as much as the christians would also put it that don't participate in the east doesn't. do it in the easter time it will be in the church of the holy supplicant this is a discriminatory system and of course what you see here is protest against this discrimination now on top of that israel as you have indicated is trying to conduct ethnic cleansing gooden one of the major neighborhoods and cheers of that as much as they do that also in other neighborhoods in jerusalem so basically this is over lucian of 1st wrong struggle against racism against apartheid and against the occupation that has lasted longer than anybody can to do it this is coming at a time when the israeli government is weakened because it's in the process of

trying to to form a government and of course the palestinian authority is yet to hold elections elections which have been postponed who is there if indeed there is anybody at all that is able to hold negotiations or talks at a high level between the 2 to be able to try to find some sort of solution that doesn't involve violence to the situation does it require a 3rd party and if so who could that possibly be. well since not daniel came to poet he and we're talking about more than 16 years years he has blocked any possibility for peaceful negotiations and practically has killed and eliminated or slow at the moment. in the ality nonnegotiable produce anything as long as the balance of power between palestinians and israel is the source q. dinner's their interest the problem is they do it in the last 20 years the whole israeli society has shifted sore much to the extreme right wing side and that now

you have fascists in the israeli parliament like smart to ditch on the other sort of present israeli elite that settlers in my opinion only thing that would change the situation is a combination of palestinian popular nonviolent resistance as you can see to dangers and one with a strong unit of acts against israeli occupation and a part of the international community has to do its duty of punishing system of apartheid and discrimination and will now see apartheid this is what human rights watch to say is that this is what even israeli human rights organizations are saying that salem and others there has to be sanctions and be unit of actions against israel so that we can have a possibility of peace process and yet we have seen responses to the violence the most recent violence from certain foreign governments but again we're in the situation that we've been in before where there is an international response to it

but very little seems to be done how confident can people be that actually the rest of the world is interested in stepping in to actually find some sort of solution or some sort of way forward from the situation. we as palestinians do not rely on others we rely on our sense pierced and i think if it wasn't for the palestinian struggle on the ground nobody would pay attention to what's happening in palestine on the other hand i think what we need is not just. declare nations and issue should condemn not is that in this day this doing good just criticizing we need actions and the last thing we can accept is to equate between those who are occupying us and the occupied people between those who are pressing us than the people who are hope rest this is unacceptable and unfortunately the international community most of that up to now is still afraid of criticizing as if israel is

allowed to be in punitive and above international time has come to hold israeli government's responsibility for their violations of international law for their war crimes and ducting including the practice of 3 citizen apartheid and suppression of other people and that is what we want we want the world community to settle israel enough is enough so many other countries are punished subjected to sanctions even for things that are much less than what is the ends doing and time has come for the world community tool to do its new t. according to international we've seen the level of anger particularly amongst young palestinians certainly over the last 24 hours or so hamas the on group in charge of gaza its response is promising that israel will pay what it calls an expensive price what is the risk that that's kind of response is going to play into the hands of extremists on both sides. i think all palestinian groups have been very

careful on that issue and i'm proud of that because practically everybody sticking to a nonviolent approach demonstrations with nonviolent methods. actions of broad just use nonviolence mainly and that is is something that is the very effective it is good to continues and dismantle i think that is the only side is that going to provoke. more violence from our side and that it could feel about it and that's exactly what's happening in gaza i mean there people are abstaining from using military methods because we know exactly what is that it wants but it this has to sort of that approach to continue it also requires that involvement and attention from the side of the international community which means that the fact that palestinians are jews in nonviolence would be appreciated by the international

community and the last thing we can accept is do it quickly between our standard is old to use. different standards double standards was it comes to the israeli palestinian issue must of a body in secretary-general of the palestinian national initiative political party and we appreciate you joining us and al-jazeera thank you very much sir thank you thank you so much dozens of people mostly schoolgirls have been killed in multiple blasts outside the school in the afghan capital kabul president ashraf ghani says the taliban were behind the attack but the on group says eisel is to blame for the concert for he has more from kabul let me give you a warning this report contains some graphic images. children screaming for their mothers scattered notebooks and casualties strong across the ground in western. girls' school had been a place of safety education and hope for the future now the scene of an attack

intended to create maximum casualties 3 explosions at about 5 30 pm local time the same time young women and girls were finishing school and streaming out of the gate. dozens of wounded civilians were rushed to mohammad ali jinnah hospital many in a critical condition and. unfortunately during the time when students were coming out of the school a powerful explosion happened and the number of children will wind it and you can see that all the hospitals are full of victims. those who lost their lives lined up in the corridors a family members checked to see they'd lost their loved ones concerned people caked up to donate blood. but there were a lot of casualties there were a few male victims but most of them were female school students the victims were female school students the bodies were everywhere and some of the bodies were

missing here. took place in. a predominately and huzzaing neighborhood these groups have often been at the receiving end of violence by armed groups in afghanistan due to religious and political differences rights groups say there has been a recent surge in targeted killings of women and religious minorities no group has yet claimed responsibility for this attack but there is a circle of blame among officials and fighter groups the taliban condemned the attack and denied any responsibility blaming eisel but president blame the armed groups saying the taliban have once again shown their own willingness to resolve the crisis peacefully and fundamentally by escalating their legitimate war and violence in a country already torn apart by decades of war his attack will no doubt lead to

scotland's election has delivered a parliamentary majority which backs independence scottish national party leader nicholas sturgeon says she'll never fight for a 2nd referendum on leaving the united kingdom despite resistance from the british prime minister abbas johnson on a whole reports from edinburgh. it's not the outright majority the scottish national party had hoped for but the election has produced a majority for independence with the s.n.p. bolstered by the greens 1st minister and s.n.p. leader nicolas sturgeon made clear what she intends to do with it with the s.n.p. and the scottish greens stood in a clear commitment to an independence referendum within the next parliament shit here and both of eyes be clear that the timing over it for in them should be to say by a simple majority. in the scottish parliament pandemic recovery is the immediate priority after that the plan is for the scottish parliament to legislate

for a referendum to take place within the next 5 years it will be for the government in london in charge of u.k. constitutional affairs to agree negotiate or challenge it in the supreme court a spectacle that would risk inflaming separatist desires even further so right now polling suggests perhaps the slates and not support for independents in kind of 4849 percent and it's been 50 percent consistently over the last year one thing that makes it would make this referendum different though is that there's not a whole lot of people who are undecided there's not a whole lot of people who haven't made their mind up on independence so you would have to change their minds rather than rather than enlighten people i bring people together so you would have to have to change their entrenched positions which might be why did. prime minister boris johnson has consistently ruled out a 2nd referendum the 1st in 2014 was lost by a 10 point margin something he believes should have put the issue to bed for

a generation. but then bricks it happened which scotland voted against by a large margin in 2016 being taken out of the e.u. against their will as many see it as reinvigorated the drive to leave the united kingdom what it all serves to demonstrate this election intervening event since 2014 the declining influence of unionist party scottish labor look in services is just how divided this country now is split pretty much right down the middle there may well be a path to a 2nd referendum now but still no way of predicting the outcome if it happens and with its politics said to be defined by antagonism towards westminster and the pursuit of independence from it for years to come jonah how al-jazeera edinburgh london mayor said he can has been reelected for a 2nd term giving a boost to the opposition labor party after a disappointing run in local u.k.
