east jerusalem but on monday the situation took a dangerous turn when israeli police stormed the mosque compound injuring hundreds of palestinians they armed group hamas responded by firing rockets into israel which in turn spock the strikes on gaza more than 2 dozen palestinians were killed among them and 9 children in these rarely attacks and at least 2 israeli women were killed by the rockets how mass had warned it would. be when israeli police used rubber bullets stun grenades and tear gas occupied east jerusalem had been on anyway because palestinian families are being threatened with eviction from their homes israeli settlers have waged legal battles in an attempt to force the palestinians from the neighborhood. correspondents have been following the
8:35 pm
developments on both sides of the conflict will start with the faucet from damascus gate in occupied east jerusalem. lilly's simmering tensions this violence it all really began with the situation here at the beginning of the muslim holy month of ramadan on the steps of damascus gate the decision by the israeli security forces to block it off to the usual kind of gatherings that we see mike lee during ramadan it was a real source of anger a source of protest and skirmishes between palestinians and israeli security forces all of that fueled and magnified by what was taking place in a nearby neighborhood. where there was the imminent threat of evictions on palestinian families who've been living there for generations and all of that boiling over on monday those scenes we saw on the locks of mosque compound courtyards those very violent scenes with israeli security forces moving in in great numbers and of course leading to that deadline given by hamas for
8:36 pm
a complete withdrawal by the israeli forces by 6 pm local time on monday just after that the launching of 7 long range rockets on the jerusalem area for israel the prime minister benjamin netanyahu said that that was crossing a red line and required a forceful response we're seeing that forceful response now and the israeli government is promising that it will last for days as well as that as the death toll mounts inside gaza wave after wave of rocket rocket fire coming out from inside the territory itself so it's an extremely volatile situation and also worth mentioning something that's being less reported the spread of violent protest to palestinian israeli and mixed towns there is a real danger of that violence continuing to spread throughout israel. turning into potential into community violence we've seen one instance of that already with a palestinian killed by gunfire by
8:37 pm
a jew we're talking about civilian against civilian inside an israeli town overnight that's an extremely dangerous and volatile situation itself harry's force at the inside story in occupied east jerusalem. deborah him reports from ramallah in the occupied west bank. there have been several calls for protests in different cities in the occupied west bank and we've seen some of them had to confrontation points with the israeli army such as israeli military checkpoints in the occupied west bank we know that east jerusalem and gaza are separated from the occupied west bank by israeli military checkpoints that palestinians would need permits to be able to go to say that they wanted to show their anger and say that even though they can't be with their fellow palestinians physically they are doing what they can because they believe that they are living in the same plight under the same israeli occupation and its measures we've seen
8:38 pm
a lot of frustration among palestinians when it comes to how the past in authority is dealing with the latest escalation they believe they've given their very soft stance and this is why this position was manifested in some of the protests we've seen in one of the protests we've seen officials holding hands and walking in the protest was the younger generation was needing a gap between them it was a deliberate gap to show that they are not following their leadership when we asked some of the palestinians if they know that there is an arab league meeting on tuesday many of them told us that they don't even care to know because they believe that the arabs have failed them and they are left to fight the israeli occupation on their own. countries worldwide have appealed for deescalation of tensions why western capitals have called for the violence to stop the. rocket attacks the u.n. held an emergency meeting but no statement was issued that. the violence by israel
8:39 pm
against palestinians and its attacks on jordan described jerusalem as quote a red line and called for an end to provoke a to of measures turkey called on world leaders to take effect to. action against what is called is rarely terror. let's bring in our guests in a lama la salla his jersey is deputy regional director for the middle east and north africa at amnesty international in tel aviv yeah i mean they're all former national security adviser to the prime minister of israel and former major general also a lama law nor order political and some founding member of the democratic national assembly welcome to the program. the events which continue to unfold at this particular moment is this something that could be contained by all the parties or
8:40 pm
do you see the situation spinning art of control now. well it's going to be able to and it begin break the circle of impunity that has been existing in israel or our doors for many years we have a great a portraitist or alternative international community or organ investigation into the street should not consider this could be a new chapter for what happens in israel not by the authorities where by international law and respect for human rights can be front and center into how things go on the ground and our international community deals with this situation. recent events are very worrying because they're around in a sense of what happened in 2014 in gaza. which group i do believe is the most devastating indestructible israeli military operation in the uk i was in it or is really in measure have a month civilian life and the population there it is extremely worrying going to be
8:41 pm
in this will happen and we can see the violations continue is because there is inherently there's no accountability for the continuous human rights and international obligations yacov by storming of a mosque compound firing rubber bullets stun grenades to gas inside the mosque what was is west trying to achieve when you know these are very important religiously speaking moments for muslims all over the world and for palestinians in particular. as you know this is the earliest race druce it's that simple man it's the bill of the jewish temple was there almost. 700 years before the the one came to jerusalem so on from the jewish point of view it is the only of all us and we'll if
8:42 pm
the palestinians would not begin right. throwing stones into the womb wall trying to prevent jews from 'd visiting a holy place for the jews the police would not come in it's a very quiet place many days during the year and if the palestinians do not initiate such rioting such an attitude towards the jews who are praying down near their warning wall i don't see the police doing anything so been patient of all this event was banned by the palestinians against the jews in jerusalem and the rules alone is the capital. and was jewish city 2000 years before islam came to the police area ok i see your point nor is the potus is author of lame. well of course if you're the colonizer and you root
8:43 pm
allies in palestinian in and day out for over 50 years sure there's no way you're going to frank holt with the brutality of his rented police on a daily basis much less an attack on a large sum compound having said that i think it was very clear to the entire world what was happening and that's why we saw a blanket condemnation of these israeli measures we saw a blanket come condemnation as well the racist marchers of israeli settlers who are completely unhinged and protected by israeli soldiers marching through occupy traversal and chanting that do arabs so the provocation is the sparks of this escalation have you know that they were there they were at accumulating over days specifically throughout the month of ramadan when even the access of palestinian jerusalemites to areas they traditionally go to after breaking their
8:44 pm
fast like the the mask was restricted the writing was on her all over the wall but because of very petty political calculus it was allowed to continue these are the allies of benjamin netanyahu and he wanted to show them that he's still their friend and now we are now where we are where we are because of all. the focal point of the discontent which soon degenerated into a wider confrontation was shifted a lot where thumb it is facing evictions now there is a hearing which is expected by the surprise ready supreme court do you see an outcome that could potentially change because of the latest developments on the ground. unless israel smothers that's for nervous system that imposes on palestinians who are coming because. there's been continuous dispossession of innocence for example shows us a great story this is not the 1st time the palestinians are evicted from their
8:45 pm
homes to make place for starters is reducing them is an occupied city its population a bus in population there is protected under international humanitarian law and since $97.00 when israel illegally antics gargle the city it has pursued policies of them graphic engineering which translated into force displacement of assyrians expansion and building of illegal settlements on horses basement means that the mission office informs restricting on much of the implant bill and their residence eradication. basically pushing them out of. there so a less international law human rights are front and center joe how israel and the international community deals with us in population there and our city though at least roussillon we will see a continuous by omission of present continuing potent. continuous force
8:46 pm
displacement of the us in population living yacov the expression of land for the settlers has been denounced by the un by the international institutions this see the next government in israel changing course. israel is a statement look like many countries in the middle east. they appealed to the supreme court and the supreme court really make a decision i don't know where and i'm not working because the city and of to call and he'll then we have very little if the decision of the supreme court will be that we should let the palestinians to continue to believe in these hours as the real decision of the supreme court to review the ever to leave the baby because it belongs to our other people who apply protocol they will have to leave it's a little peace deal between the 2 groups why are you saying it's mine and the other
8:47 pm
one saying well it's my name and bull's appeal to be cool and then it will be decided by the court if there is a state in which when the court made a decision and you never know who for the call made to make the decision what the big. bet will be obeyed by at least by the authorities in israel no question about it i don't know and it's very much depends what will happen in the in the court i must say that one remark about the issue or thermal settlers' of taking place of our of its abuse the rules that ironically and it's almost impossible by nature the number of palestinians in jerusalem is a beagle not much more porous feelings are leaving you know in east jerusalem then 67 if those people who spoke will round about the
8:48 pm
policy of you know taking the places of the palestinians by settlers so and so of course always accuse issues were not connected to the area. how it is that the number of palestinians in jerusalem is growing all the. palestinians from the on the west bank want to move into jerusalem situational the listening to all of their own bad while so many palestinians are immigrating from the west bank into jerusalem and ask to have. israel. so the reason you know our right to john i just want to react i feel like that story. book these level guides are going to stop me please go ahead i read that what they describe is against the reality on the ground yes but i just have to remind you that the housing projects in chertoff was started in 1956 and then there was an agreement
8:49 pm
between jordan and the un to hand over ownership of those places to other palestinians back in the sixty's coming 67 and things changed on the ground. or you risk asked me a question and i answer and you didn't answer you didn't ask and then you ask me i know why you don't know a stimulus in jerusalem is growing old i because it is in any great broadcast thank into europe there right the point is if you're allegedly so bad why don't they immigrating from the west bank into jerusalem nor is this going to be a purely legal or a political battle particular as far as the case of shots or has concerned. no this is this is that i mean anyways these wretched ports are parcel of the regime of colonial occupation and report after report study after study proves that they are no more than tools to provide cover for the dispossession of palestinians and the
8:50 pm
systematic discrimination against palestinians we have yet to see a court rule in favor of palestinian families fighting for their property israel legislates laws to ensure that they are palestinians are discriminated against why the israelis kepler's and settler organizations can claim a land and property belonging to palestinians palestinians will actually have a legitimate claim and deeds of their property cannot do the same. in the in what is now recognized as israel proper so the argument is a bit upside down but again that's not surprising given the fact we're talking about you know a colonial regime trying to. market itself when it is so clearly exposed for what it is. the issue in jerusalem is not one of the real estate disputes it's one of
8:51 pm
the occupation there is occupier and occupying denying that fact making it look otherwise doesn't change the fact that is the fact that less than his are in jerusalem of course their numbers are increasing well you know we have families just like all other humans but at the end of the day we're not in jerusalem because life is good and israel is treating us well we're in jerusalem because that's our homeland and we have every right to stay and we have every right to move freely in jerusalem and the palestinian cities it's not immigration it's the right to freedom of mormon less move forward because we have different angles to cover the muted international response when it comes to this particular confrontation could be an indication that the world would like to see the palestinians making compromises for them to be able to move forward to cannot just be stuck in a mindset about the past.
8:52 pm
we're interrupting inside story which he can see again at midnight 30 g.m.t. to go back to the most intense exchange of fire since 2014 gathering pace as night falls as palestinian groups and israel exchange fire within the last few minutes we've seen a barrel of rockets leaving the gaza strip towards israel this one now as we speak just an hour ago that israeli airstrike hit a residential tower in gaza city. this was the moment the army says that it informed residents of the tower to evacuate before it was targeted it says that hamas has an office in that building in response to that attack the armed wing of the palestinian group hamas said that it would be retaliating and
8:53 pm
that tel of eve would be targeted by rockets and as we said within the last few minutes a barrier of rockets leaving the gaza strip we count we counted at least 7 or 8 rockets being fired from the gaza strip towards israel let's bring it out as here is a software. who is in gaza bring us up to speed with what's going on there stuff what. some brigades the medical wing of hamas just as we promised we fired 'd 130 rockets so would tell of you saw this is the 1st the action by the palestinian fighting groups and destruction of the building so as we expected that there will be more escalation and. this collision that range of this collision will be extended so now i look at it now without firing hundreds of thousands of rockets
8:54 pm
towards the sunset this is the biggest this is not the last same islamic jihad also they vote for her motivation and other smaller groups of this now well we are talking about firing. short range rockets towards them but the biggest the most significant and most serious escalation is targeting the building tens of people are left in the city it under 10 we saw the brigades. they fire their rockets towards the levy so we are expecting now more israeli. also the palestinian fighting groups are expected also to extend. the scale of their retaliation and the student the fire will be even stronger so tonight still if it's in the beginning we could you also. get a strike in different places in gaza city this night should be expected to be
8:55 pm
a hard night the gazans are into and their homes we had cheated from 'd someone's blood speaker expressing that happened is for the asian that the gates did which is firing rockets or television as you say. these this pair of rockets being launched towards southern israel now is that in direct response to that explosion we saw just under an hour ago when the israeli ministry targeted what looked like a residential building that. the short range rockets firing never stop since yesterday the palestinian. groups have been firing towards southern is that which is in the. range of fire let's say but what happened 5 minutes ago is that some brigades for the 1st time they fired rockets towards is that aisle and response to this section of the
8:56 pm
residential building so we said that the kaesong brigade said that is that of course that it lines and return we will also. tell of you mix just an issue and we are expecting more rockets to be fired to work. even if it could be extended to other areas so tel aviv is one of the areas that could be part. of the targets of the policy in fighting but it is not the last i know that al jazeera has staff on the ground among the rubble of that not fallen building the israeli military had given advance warning that it was a target and told residents to leave so we know if there's been any casualties in that destruction of that building. specifically in this. town most of the people either who lived in the building or the living next to the building they evacuated immediately their buildings because of fear that the
8:57 pm
building would destroy the neighbor's building so we have been not hearing about casualties. and the destruction of another building but since yesterday the minister of health saved $28.00 palestinians killed including. 2 women on killing children more than 100150 palestinians have been injured expectations. of those banks of the data bank of get. there could be the ministry of health said expecting even the was preparing food and sos for the largest number of casualties how are people feeling i can hear a lot of noise going on behind you now what is going on there. it's the more the know it's the time of the play out of the show but. suddenly we started to see people. getting out to destry to see. these the huge explosions that suddenly
8:58 pm
happen resulted from. the world state television we could all so he had to choose for them was then that she was over the loudspeakers and most of the mosques. in this for that he tell us and. before this i thought the streets of gaza were almost empty which is something unusual especially and the end of ramadan where people deploy. the seeds of gaza are overcrowded with people who are trying to buy the needs of the aid. which as we understood the old feature of the putting out of old us because of it had been constant because of the recent escalation and now we can see no more rockets fired. from gaza towards. could be towards syllabi because this kind of rockets which is very high towards. this could be towards syllabi because
8:59 pm
it's flying high over done. and that by going on. it's. high in durham trying to. leave for a moment many thanks indeed that could fire from gaza let's go to southern israel. is. what's happening there. well yes we've seen wave after wave of rockets in the last 10 or so minutes over a flying over our heads northwoods certainly in the direction of tel aviv at the same time as we were getting alerts on our phone that sirens will being sounded in tel aviv and indeed explosions heard you can hear potentially in the background iron dome apparent iron dome interceptions the interceptor missiles of the israeli military and so this is it seems more coming up here if we can turn the camera
9:00 pm
around turn to come around and above right above us here we're seeing a lot of. dome. interceptor missiles being launched very close to our location here. or there trying to head off another. darawshe i think we should probably. guys i think we should probably move to the shelter here i come up ok ok to harry well let's we'll actually go to we're going yeah we'll let you go to the shelter many thanks to you that's a force that there in southern israel earlier when hamas or the al qassam brigades brigade launched a barrel of of rockets towards southern israel the defense system had been overwhelmed and some of those projects off from gaza had managed to get through and land 2 israeli women killed in.
