gaza's fighting factions are a force that al-jazeera southern israel have sought to al-jazeera as neda abraham who joins us now live from ramallah what's happening where you are in the occupied west bank. 35 palestinians were injured in confrontations with these radio army in different cities in the occupied west bank most of the injuries were in hebron in the south of the west bank and the majority of them were hit by live ammunition it is an exceptionally high number of injuries a by live fire was just showing us that the situation could be escalating rather quickly and joining me here to talk about the situation in the occupied west bank is media but who is the she is a researcher and a writer and you have been at the protests here to any of the legal israeli settlement of bet el the same time there was a leadership meeting by the p.l.o.

fatah committee members what is your view what did you think protesters there thought about that meeting and i think no one really paid attention to it i think the only people that were paying attention to that meeting were those in the meeting the leadership itself which is common and normal and it's exclusionary practices of the youth the youth are never really included in this so those that were on the street were mostly use those that were in the meeting are veterans of the p.l.o. movement arafat there who don't really who have lost touch with the palestinian demands who have lost touch with the streets right now palestinians are not even speaking about the leadership they're speaking what can we do for each other and we've seen violence unfold in israel also followed by a crackdown by these radio police against palestinian israelis and also the tension that is going on between palestinian israelis and jewish israelis what is different

about what's going on this time well palestinians with israeli citizenship are right now being met with brutal violence and it shows israel's discriminatory practices but more than this it reminds us that we are palestinians we are saying hey if i. this one we are no longer saying is divided the border lines that have been drawn for us are completely blurred by palestinians and the complete and violent repression of the israeli police in places like haiti is showing how no colonizer no colonizer will ever give equal rights or will ever give the rights of the people who are native to the land and in a few days we are expecting the neck but anniversary which is the memory as far as israelis are concerned that is the creation of the state of israel and for palestinians it is it reminds them of their displacement that hundreds of thousands of people who became refugees how do you expect this anniversary to be commemorated

this year i don't think it's going to be commemorated as much as it is going to be confronted this is ongoing and that does ongoing is displacement is displacement what israel is doing is it's trying to complete what it started in 1908 let's remember the palestinians that remained within the cities that is now considered israel are ones that have been fighting for their lives are treated as 2nd 3rd class citizens so next of is not going to be command married it was going to be confronted i think this year and we've seen a lot of support by many influencers on social media we've seen the attorney campaign have a more impact this time how are you viewing this in light of also some restrictions from certain platforms right so the certain platforms are censoring palestinians and palestinians are confronting it by reaching out to the international community telling them will decide what you can do you can amplify the voices right now

palestinians on on social media are changing the narrative it is not an occupation in a settler colonialism and they're being brave enough to say that publicly now thank you so much madame but of all things she's a right. and they're researcher and she is part of the young generation and a lot of us have told us over the past days that they've lost hope that their palestinian authority standing by them that they're taking measures on their own hands and they feel like they've also been left alone by the arabs and that they are left fighting the occupation now in their own hands how does this need to abraham reporting live from ramallah in the occupied west bank need to thanks u.s. president joe biden a spoke at their israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu biden said that he was optimistic the violence wouldn't last much longer. my expectation hope is that. this will be. closing down sooner than later but israel has

a right to defend itself when you have thousands of rockets lined indeed your territory but i had a conversation for a while with with the. prime minister of israel and i think. my hope is that we'll see this coming to a conclusion sooner than later more now from mike hanna in washington. well president biden saying that his administration is constantly engaging with various parties from various sides in this conflict saying as well but it's not only that his officers are talking to israelis and palestinians they are also talking to other countries in the region such as cutter and egypt which have particular influence in an area in gaza in particular but president biden clearly walking a tightrope walk here he has said he wants to recalibrate the u.s.

relationship with israel given the exceedingly close relationship that evolved under the previous administration as yet though he has not done so his administration continuing to look at ways in which it is going to reestablish the relationship and those changes that were made under the trump administration still in place for example the u.s. embassy remains in jerusalem having been moved from tel aviv so a president biden clearly saying he wants to recalibrate the relationship at the same time using the phrase used by u.s. politicians for decades and that is that israel has a right to defend himself that is a statement being made by politicians in congress on both sides of the aisle. we're going to weather update next here on al jazeera than ultra surging violence in recent weeks afghanistan is it the islamic aid holiday with a 3 day cease fire. taking matters into their own hands and tell you about cuba's

a scale not seen in decades broke out between palestinian israelis and jewish residents in several cities it's. a 3 day ceasefire has begun in afghanistan to coincide with the muslim eat holiday the deal between the taliban and government follows a surge in violence in recent weeks afghan officials say the taliban fighters captured the key not district near kabul on wednesday earlier in the week more than 80 people were killed in the bombing of a school the taliban's tonight claims by the government that it was behind the attack if you know contrary has more now from kabul. this ceasefire comes after an extremely violent month of ramadan here in afghanistan so even though like you mentioned it will be very short only 3 days it will be like a huge breath of air for all afghans who have been literally suffocating from all the violence that has been engulfing the country from what we've seen in past ceasefires even though it's still very early it has been in effect for only 12

hours since midnight local time last time it should hold according to past experience except for isolated incidents of violence has been really surging in afghanistan and we're not talking just about fighting between the taliban and government forces across the country we're fighting has been ongoing had been ongoing in several provinces that has been in the south where last got the provincial capital of helmand has been under siege from the taliban the government forces were able to push them away and if you mentioned yesterday in wired dot which is only 40 kilometers from from kabul according to local sources the taliban were able to capture the district of new york but according to the government and this is a quote they said that the afghan forces only made a tactical retreat of the taliban did not hold the district muslims in pakistan are marking the holiday in mosques and open fields as cases of covert brian team

continue to search for mr imran khan sometime message to worshipers on twitter asking them to celebrate responsibly. to ensure social distancing a partial lockdown was introduced last week to prevent people from crumbling ahead of the holiday. india's hospitals have become so overwhelmed by coronavirus patients that some states are now administering a drug against world health organization advice goa and with a count of announced plans to use the anti parasitic drug i have a mech to in to protect against severe covert 19 infections w.h.o. has recently said the evidence of the drug working is inconclusive and recommends its use only in clinical trials live down to new delhi poverty metallica's forest probably i suppose another sign of desperation with hospitals clearly under

pressure with numbers continuing to rise in towns and cities and spreading into rural areas to. no the numbers are simply staggering internationally more than 360000 fresh cases were officially recorded on wednesday and more than 4000 people officially again succumb to the virus and why keep saying officially is because health experts and other experts have been saying that both the numbers are severely undercounted and so what you're seeing on the ground is states really struggling to stem you know this rising tsunami of cases and one of the latest examples is the use the approval of the drug ivermectin ivermectin is an anti parasitic drug it is taken orally and w.h.o. the f.d.a. in the u.s. as well as the makers of this drug have said that the that the drug has there's no

scientific evidence to use this and have actually warned against the use of this drug but the government of go out one of the 2 states that has approved this drug has said that panels in export panels in italy in spain u.k. and japan have actually found evidence that this walks and reduces mortality in cover $900.00 patients and so they are going ahead with using this drug it's also worth mentioning that the health minister himself has come under a lot of fire and criticism and frankly a lot of mockery for promoting you know drugs and suggestions that have no scientific basis a few awhile ago the indian medical association slammed him for of for indorsing a drug called coronet that is manufactured locally saying that this has no scientific evidence at all for helping coburn 1000 patients just a day ago he was mocked incessantly on social media for suggesting that people take jock chocolate specifically 70 percent dock chocolate to boost immunity and reduce

stress during these times. the opposition a piling on the pressure on the government to martyred. a lot of criticism a lot of pressure on the government to do more coming from exports and now also political parties the opposition has signed a letter asking the government to do more to stem the squire says a lot of the demands are around various aspects of the crisis but specifically they focus a lot on vaccinations they want the government the modi government to set aside 350000000000 rupees to vaccinate the people it's also asking the government to start importing vaccines at the same time 5 asking and allowing a pharmaceutical companies in the country to help produce the 2 vaccines been administered in the nation and finally 7 they want them or the government to

undertake a free vast vaccination drive nationally because right now what we're seeing is states really struggling with dozers many of them have actually stalled vaccination saying they simply don't have enough jobs probably maternal reporting live from new delhi many thanks to. cuba starting its 1st mass vaccination rollout using 2 that's locally produced jobs shot on a 0 to a dollar vaccines still in clinical trials but they'll be used for an ocular $780000.00 people in the fast phase cuba has a total of 5 vaccines in different stages of development and augusta reports now from have a. cuba has begun a mass vaccination campaign here in the capital the plan is to vaccinate all adults with 2 cuban developed cuban manufactured vaccines but those vaccines still undergoing clinical trials there in phase 3 and the state is only fast track that

regulates your approval because of a surge in covert cases. in the state has always concerned itself with scientific and technological development and science has been developed to cuba it's the only country in latin america and one of the few countries in the 3rd world to have its own vaccine or not that many 1st world countries have their own vaccine removal given. yesterday i was summoned and tomorrow i'm getting vaccinated because this is cuba with or without the blockade. i think it's in the last stage of clinical trials people will take it up there are a risk but if they come and ask me if i want to get vaccinated i'll say yes. and i have and i'm glad i did my search though i didn't have any action getting vaccinated was employed to. cuba is the smallest country in the

world to have developed its own coronavirus vaccines and the government says that come august it hopes to have produced enough doses to cover the entire population but the economy is in terrible shape and right now there are bread shortages so a major question hanging over the government is if it simply got enough cash enough hard currency so import the things it needs like syringes for instance a successful vaccine rollout. thousands of health workers have been demonstrating on the streets of argentina's capital as part of efforts to mark international day that demanding better wages and recognition for their work especially during a pandemic today's a boat reports from us. at the center a one sided. on wednesday. they were carried by nurses from argentina capital to demand better salaries. says public health care workers are exhausted and underpaid. yet in my hospital there are patients on

every floor we have friends that got sick all salaried leaves us below the poverty line we have to work in several hospitals to make ends meet. health care workers are also victims of the economic crisis in argentina that's been exacerbated by the pandemic. purchasing power has been weakened by the double digit inflation rate that's been haunting argentina for years. but in this hospital in modern o. outside the capital the situation is even worse nurses say they haven't been paid in 6 months hospitals and health centers like this one in argentina have been struggling to cope with the rise of covert 19 infections doctors and nurses say that they've been working nonstop since the penn demick began and that they were summoned by the government to deal with a national emergency until now they've never been paid i know there. are malice

says they're desperate and that's why they started protesting outside the hospital to see. all of us continue to work even still we are not being paid we lug basic items like syringes but we are here trying to care for our patients we don't know when we are going to get it. there's about $120.00 people in a similar situation at the hospital some of them are about to be evicted from their homes because they're unable to pay rent. labor unions are distributing food to those struggling to make ends meet. most of the ones working here are the woman. lord how we are treated you had helping pollutions but also often reduce and revolt as we go to salary many are afraid to speak out because they are afraid to lose their jobs they're not paid this is how this very situation is argentina is battling an economic crisis and epidemic that has left more than 10000 people dead

down the f.b.i. says a group calling itself darkseid believed to be based in the former soviet union broke into the colonial pipeline computer network demanding ransom so the company shut the pipeline down with prices rising as a result 4 states have now declared a state of emergency in order to relax rules for transporting fuel on land and a government agency felt compelled to warn panic buyers not to put gas in a plastic bag or to port near an open flame complete with a video demonstration still the incident is raising questions about how vulnerable u.s. companies are to cyber attacks more than 350000000 dollars in losses are attributable to ransomware just this year an over 300 percent increase. over the last year. we have the capability to address and the dedication to address border security cyber security threats. the security. of our

homeland in all. dimensions but a government audit in 2001000 found the agency that is supposed to evaluate the security of those systems is severely understaffed it had just one employee in 2014 and just 6 intil 2018 and the united states does not have any cybersecurity requirements to protect the 4300000 kilometers of oil natural gas or hazardous liquid pipelines only voluntary suggestions infrastructure communities do historically lag other industries in terms of their spending on cybersecurity that was clear in february when hackers broke into a city's water treatment system in florida and sent a burst of a trading chemical into the water supply but the hacker changed the sodium hydroxide from about $100.00 purged from $1000000.00 211100 parts per 1000000 it was caught before it caused a risk but in washington d.c.

right now another example of the threat hackers have started releasing the personal information of police officers on the web the city is negotiating a ransom afraid that confidential informants could be next the by demonstration is expected to soon release new cyber security guidelines but that could take a lot of time and the nation's vulnerability is right now unclear display patty calling al-jazeera washington. it is good to have you with us hello adrian fitting in here in doha the headlines allow sara israel has renewed its aerial bombardment of gaza with raids on several locations 83 palestinians including 17 children have been killed since monday 7 people have been killed by strikes fired into israel by gaza's armed factions israel has found to continue its benefit campaign.
