hashtag sorts of being hidden from people seize on friday and that's al aqsa now some including journalists have their accounts they said disabled for posts on protests in or tried them on friday nights where more as you heard earlier more than $200.00 palestinians were injured after israeli police stormed the compound using tear gas and stun grenades to disperse muslim wash business starts of course protesting in support of shia gerano social media on other activism stories also disappeared on wednesday and thursday in fact colombian instagram users revealed instagram removed posts on protests they said against tax reforms and police repression but also on red dress day now that's what raises awareness on missing and murdered indigenous women and girls in canada they have also had their posts removed. the reason why this is such an issue is because there is a continued genocide against indigenous people but specifically in canada in

2019 a report found that over a 1000 indigenous women girls and 2 spirit folks have gone missing in canada but indigenous communities know that the number is much closer to 5000 a magic 5000 women girls and 2 spirit folks that just disappeared by instagram or moving our post they're doing the same thing silencing us and are raising the continued genocide against our people so i ask you why she also why well and scream has in the last few hours issued an apology saying it was a bug which to lead to posts and it wasn't deliberate now it's heads. also wrote on to it so people around the world from colombia to is jerusalem used form to share what's happening he also went on to say we apologize to all those who felt they could not bring attention to these incredibly important causes and many others around the world so here is director of the international journalism masters program at city university of london she has more on how social media are

approaching what's happening in occupied east jerusalem. we really need to address the 2 aspects here that social media platforms in general to are are lacking and falling behind and these 2 things on transparency of their policies insensitive content on that platforms and accountability for actions such as as has the actions that we've seen in the last 24 hours and in the last few days and mainly in relation to social media platforms concern miti with governments asking or putting requests to social media platforms to sense that continents and users of of this tend to these government policies and actions social media platforms are conferring with or or has has as you know an element of confirmatory when when governments actually pressured them illegally in many you know contacts and many national

contacts to sunset users and contents without the knowledge of the individual users so i think this is worse social media platform needs to revisit their own actions and their own way of operating and i think the activists in the cases that you're dualist have just highlighted and the report was successful in making these social media platform giants you know going back and kind of like me stating the fact that we didn't need to do this it was a technical glitch dozens of people mostly schoolgirls have been killed in multiple bloss outside the school in the afghan capital kabul president bush afghani says the taliban will behind the attack but the armed group says eisel is to blame for their call to foley has more from kabul let me give you

a family members checked to see they'd lost their loved ones concerned people to donate blood. but there were a lot of casualties there were a few male victims but most of them with school students the victims were female school students the bodies were everywhere and some of the bodies were missing here . took place in. predominately shia. neighborhoods 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 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

criticism months over the government's response to the covert 1000 surge several states are now going into lockdown as officials try to bring the spiraling outbreak under control. ok let's stay with our top story then the violence in occupied east jerusalem must have a bug is secretary general of the palestinian national in political party he says this is just the latest example of years of oppression. what you see here is this lection of system of racism and discrimination against palestinians not only we have been under occupation for more than 64 years but on top of that israel has established a system of apartheid and additional discrimination and the vast majority of palestinians for the article if it's somebody to visit it but it's a bit in period and most as much as the christians would also prevent it from participating in the eastern. during the easter time period to be in the church.

this is a discriminatory system and of course what you see here is protest against this discrimination and on top of that israel as you have indicated is trying to conduct ethnic cleansing in one of the major neighborhood cheers of that as much as they do that also in other neighborhoods in jerusalem so basically this is the evolution of a strong struggle against racism against apartheid and against the occupation that has lasted longer than anybody cunto that fighting has resumed in ethiopia's tikker a region preventing international aid from reaching civilians caught up in the conflict between degree and rebels and the ethiopian government sporadic shelling could be had north of the town of a girl as ethiopia has military blocks of the road to aid convoys including the un world food program doctors without borders and world vision the military says it

smuggled out of other suburb. he accuses the government of creating carnage wanting to destroy the northern tigray region and censoring his earlier attempts to speak out. and my other message to the people of to great who live in the country and out of the country is this may god give you strength may he give you his strength and power everything passes and this might pass away this might pass away don't be demoralized don't be fearful or anxious the government has condemned atrocities in the conflict but has denied claims of ethnic cleansing and the targeting of civilians members of parliament choose the country senior leaders and as 40 percent of its estimated 110000000 people are orthodox christian mathias his message is likely to resonate with voters ahead of parliamentary elections in
