rescue work going on bulldozers there removing rubble looking for survivors going through the rubble of the flattened buildings in the search for anybody may still be alive amongst all of that. for a force that has this report from western swing on the latest destruction. in a moment with a phone call from the israeli army another gaza highrise became a condemned building minutes ticking down on a one hour warning this the office of the associated press as it staff made instant decisions about what they needed to salvage to keep on working across the lift lobby staff from the al-jazeera bureau were doing the very same thing on the street outside the building's owner pleading for a stay of execution how about at that level we need 10 minutes as you can see there all around the press not people who are going in to get weapons out. but there was no arguing but even about the timing. of.

the. al-jazeera gaza journalist software was live on air as he watched his workplace of 11 years vanish in front of him we find a frankly everybody i'll believe wouldn't believe what they want to roll these on like that which underpants thing that you would think of when something like that happened this building was home to families as well as media companies more to add to the list of homeless and besieged and played during days of intensive attacks from the sky. in a statement al-jazeera said it condemned in the strongest terms the bombing and destruction of its offices by the israeli military viewing it as a clear act to stop journalists from conducting their duty to inform the world and report events and vowing to pursue every available route to hold the israeli government responsible israeli military said how must operatives were using the

building and media companies like al-jazeera and the associated press with human shields. i want to remind the world that in firing on our cities hamas is committing a double war crime they're targeting our civilians and hiding behind palestinian civilians we've heard that from the israelis i can tell you that we've been in that building for 50 about 15 years with our bureau we certainly had no sense that hamas was there we would like to see the evidence we're not sure whether hamas was there or not we don't know but i can tell you the impact will be that the world will know less about what's going on in gaza because that building was leveled hamas has top gaza political leader issued this message during a visit to the qatari capital doha look. that has been besieged for 15 years 15 years under siege from every

a child in the city of prophet in southern gaza i'm a woman in shock said only children playing with their toys mothers grandmothers and families left inconsolable. innocent victims the days of heavy israeli airstrikes and artillery fire that destroyed homes and neighborhoods. what is this baby done it we were sitting safely at hide we didn't hear a warning rocket our house got hit violently why why why do they bomb houses in their residence. in the northern beit hanoun neighborhood people search through rubble for their belongings. gaza is home to about 2000000 people in an enclave under israeli blockade there are few places to escape the bomb glass that is probably the most densely populated spot on earth it has been under 14 years of air or

sea and land blockade it is the place where the spare is extremely high and were civilians are trapped. to throw the bombs many children as sheltering in schools but they still don't feel safe. and i'm not that we ran out of a house after the air attacks and our house was bombed we fled to the school we're told at the smoke from the bombs poisonous we don't know what the poison is and we only know that the thick smoke after the explosion was very choking for what purpose in the united states on thursday house democrat rashida to play up made the motional statement to congress reading the words of a palestinian mother. i want to read something a mother named the man and has a wrote 2 days ago she said quote tonight i put the kids to sleep in our bedroom so that when we die we die together. as al-jazeera spoke to him on about the message it was interrupted as bombs exploded nearby you can hear it actually while we're

speaking there is loud sounds of bumping the. people who are living refined grains. every single day. we wake up to reply to messages like are you a lie. worse here every single night we are names. hamas and its allies have responded to the attacks by firing a barrage of rockets from inside gaza. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the bombardment will not end soon. as bombs fall rescue workers dig for survivors after a house was hit an all shouty refugee camp on friday killing 10 members of a family funerals are taking place throughout gaza for those killed which includes dozens of children for those who survived the bombs they're now left traumatized

and terrified of further attacks. nor about a man the al-jazeera. well israel's bombardment of gaza has sponsored global outcry people have rallied in solidarity from iraq to the united states 100 reports now from washington d.c. . from the washington monument to the u.s. capitol thousands swarmed the national mall in a show of propellants stinney in support we have a voice and our voices being heard and we this to have some politicians doing something about what's going on the crimes that's that's are taken place in palestine today as not get a pass without punishment this time. across the u.s. demonstrations took place in washington new york chicago and at the state capital in colorado where even pros really voices joined the call for peace but nice new

press are our men and are your or he or all inhabitants of the region. the protests coming on the day of nakba meaning catastrophe or exit is in arabic spanned the globe. thousands of palestinian flag waving supporters also emerged in london rome and madrid. in the german cities of cologne and berlin protesters clashed with police. in paris 2 there were confrontations and in baghdad demonstrators burned israeli and american flags here in washington an unusually large crowd of propellants tinian demonstrators came to express their disappointment that by not pressuring israel more the united states was essentially buying time for them to consolidate military gains and exact an even higher cost in gaza i make a memory. as the conflict continues the growing protest

movement in the us marks a noticeable shift in public sentiment if not in government policy john hendren al jazeera washington. well israeli media is reporting the u.s. envoy heidi i'm out is meeting israeli defense minister minister benny gantz to discuss the conflict i'm arrived on friday sent by the u.s. president joe biden effort to calm hostilities biden has called for a deescalation but in a phone call with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu expressed strong support for israel's campaign by north spoke with the palestinian president mahmoud abbas. or phyllis bennis is a fellow at the institute for policy studies and author of the book understanding the palestinian israeli conflict and she says the u.s. isn't pressuring israel to stop the attacks and explains why what we know about the conversation between president biden and the israeli prime minister and mahmoud

abbas is that he has not called for a cease fire he has not put any pressure on israel to stop the slaughter that's underway in gaza and that this is a very familiar situation in which it appears that the u.s. is taking the lead from israel on when they are ready for a cease fire and netanyahu has made clear he is not ready for a cease fire he said that our aim is to send hemis a message that it's not worth sending these rockets he is still sending that message and this is very reminiscent of earlier situations in 2006 with the the israeli war on lebanon connelly's or rice then the secretary of state to to george bush said we aren't we don't want a ceasefire yet implying presumably there were not enough dead people yet we see is something similar here it's quite dangerous. still ahead here in al-jazeera a vote that will give women more say in rewriting chillis constitution that dates

back decades to its military dictatorship. bodies of suspected covert 9000 victims of dumped in india who is rivers' a coronavirus ripped through worst thing. all of a sudden there's no shortage of rain this is spring rain if you want to be generous it's fairly heavy rain unfortunately quite a few particularly where you get these 3 things coming together so that's a place to watch the south of france not all end up going through northern italy eventually towards slovakia and poland are just focusing on what's particularly heavy in the spring snow and that as well everywhere else most likely you'll see rain rather than not right and less sheer in spain or portugal a good part of italy albania in greece now you should stay generally speaking find

that darker blue is the heavier rain through the east of austria most say slovakia and then poland beyond it well well behind it it's just more showers and frayed and typically innsbrook showing the difference the average temps in this time of year should be about $21.00 that's fairly typical throughout the middle part of europe and it's going down if anything about how to get to wednesday was frequent showers or thunderstorms it is this thing a moment whereas in the south especially in the southwest and to counter the syria where there's a record of 41 you're not far off and you're well above the average and it's going to stick as well that's true of the west and south it's quite hot here too not record breaking but hot all the same and it continues. for. frank assessments. that you have and want to measure never taking for a situation like

a man not to be if you ever get informed opinions is the u.s. with thinking the military positioning of the middle east wasn't just a simple act of reorganizing ministry assets this is a message to the region the united states years are rethinking its military posture in-depth analysis of the day school ople headlines inside story on al-jazeera. but again you're watching al-jazeera a reminder of our top stories this hour and violence in gaza has entered a 7th consecutive day it follows hundreds of air strikes overnight the most intense a barrage from israel since the offensive began on monday more than 158

palestinians have not been killed in the end claimed. israel has destroyed an 11 story building housing international media that includes al-jazeera and the associated press both companies have condemned the attack and failed to continue reporting from garza. u.s. president joe biden has called for a deescalation hostilities and has shared concern about the civilian deaths with palestinian president mahmoud abbas but he expressed strong support for israel's campaign in a phone call with prime minister benjamin you're. on to chile now where voters are choosing delegates who will rewrite its dictatorship era constitution many hope the new draft will address the social inequality that led to violent protests nearly 2 years ago a lot in america to see in human reports now from santiago. it's a historic election in more ways than one. it's the 1st time chileans will have a say in the formal rate a new constitution and document that will determine the country's economic

political and social roadmap. beddes and her husband believe it's no small feat if he had put this will define our future that's why this day is so special and the court appointed in order to make the necessary changes the social changes that we've been waiting for for so long that if the chileans are also electing mayors governors and city council members but the constitutional vote is regarded as the most significant. the current constitution written 40 years ago under the pinochet dictatorship is regarded by a great many as illegitimate and the source of many of chile's ills for the 1st time anywhere in the world 50 percent of delegates to a constitutional convention will be women 17 of the $155.00 delegates will also represent choose indigenous people their existence isn't even recognized in the

current constitution. and another 1st to prevent long lines because of the pandemic the election is taking place over 2 rather than one day that means these votes won't be counted until sunday the end of the 2nd day in the meantime these bins will be taped completely covered with seals that according to electoral authorities will break of anybody tries to tamper with the votes and then there will be taken to a special security area and kept under guard by the army even so a lot of people don't trust the system this is a leader that you that's why daniel who works in front of his designated polling station is staying out for now but along with only have a common way to vote but more of us will go tomorrow because we've seen in many countries that when they leave the votes of a night's someone changes them. while chile doesn't have a reputation for vote tampering it's a reflection of how discredited political institutions and politicians have become

in this country where millions are waiting for a new constitution to prioritise the social rights of the majority rather than the privileges of a minority you see in human al-jazeera santiago. now india is reporting a fall in daily corona virus infections but increase in deaths recorded more than 310000 cases and almost 4100 fatalities in the past day police are patrolling the ganges river after the bodies of about 2000 suspected covert 1000 victims were recovered families are being offered money to help them cremate all bury their loved ones federal health officials say the overall situation in india is stabilizing. the strain citizens of arrived in their home country from india are on the 1st flight since a controversial travel ban expired 70 other passengers were stopped from boarding

sentenced to death in the democratic republic of congo after violence between rival muslim groups protesters were fighting over the right to celebrate the end of ramadan at a sports stadium in the capital kinshasa 38 people have been arrested and face charges including criminal association to rebellion and attempted murder. now the oceans have been a powerful ally in combating global warming but mix of high temperatures and pollutants has created so-called dead zones that oxygen depleted areas measuring tens of thousands of square kilometers where plants and animals just can't survive pull reste reports now from sweden and the baltic sea. sweden's baltic coast a chilly spring has held back the tide of domestic tourists expected to hit these beaches due to foreign travel restrictions but it's not such a pretty picture under the water rising global temperatures and the impact of

fertilizer and sewage have caused huge areas with no over very little oxygen known as dead zones the baltic sea is the largest human and dead zone in the world and is somewhere around 70000 square kilometers and it can increase global warming rapid rate the baltic zone may be the biggest but the problem is worldwide increasing by millions of square kilometers in the past half century the so-called dead zones are either in small pockets where they lose or gain oxygen according to the seasons all that far out to sea where they can be pretty much permanent. they get worse the. seas like the baltic have been a buffer against climate change absorbing excess heat and carbon dioxide. but

tests have shown the to surface water heats up oxygen from the atmosphere can no longer get through creating the deadly out beneath so sea floors that should be full of vegetation and life. it's one of the reasons cited in cases where thousands of dead fish have been washed up on beaches. solutions have been tested in the baltic such as a wave powered device to pump oxygen down below. a more low tech solution is here in a unesco wetland near the city of christian start. for this wetland means we hold water on land for longer before it reaches the sea so the vegetation can absorb fertilizer and pollutants and prevent algae blooms in the baltic so it's one part of the puzzle in preventing dead zones. some hope emerged last month in the indian ocean where ecologists found a sea grass meadow the size of switzerland a vital site of carbon capture and supporting thousands of marine species but with

evidence that areas like this are receding it may not be enough to mitigate the ever increasing loss of oxygen from the world's oceans a number that stands at 77000000000 tonnes of o 2 in just 70 years paul reese al-jazeera on the baltic coast of sweden well let's take this on we can speak to wilma cullum who's head of oceans at greenpeace u.k. joins us from london by scott but will welcome to the program baltic may be the largest human induced dead zone in the world but it is by no means the only one absolutely we are seeing these dead so proliferate right the way across the global oceans both in coastal areas like the baltic but also right in the open ocean in areas of the northern indian ocean. so it's one of the most terrifying things that's going on in the ocean the idea of fish struggling to breathe is quite a grim one. thing is there are solutions out there and we know what those solutions

are yet before we get on to what degree does does climate changing increasing ocean temperatures which we're seeing across the board compound the problem. climate change is absolutely the cause of many of these dots and the warming water is it is one of the key reasons why we're seeing these jetsons expand in the open ocean but it's not the only cause and one of the other key causes is run of chemicals like nitrogen and phosphorus from agriculture and that's a problem which you know has as far easier solutions and as one of the key causes of these debts and the more coastal areas. in paul's package there from the baltic sea we saw 11 potential solution a manmade solution but i guess there's other means of dealing with this and that's by conserving areas of ocean. absolutely so there are the solutions we have back on land things like cutting our carbon emissions limiting our use of chemicals in

agriculture but there is plenty that we can do out there on the ocean as well one of the most remarkable things about the ocean is its ability to rebound to recover from a crisis when we just leave it alone so greenpeace along with scientists and civil society across the world is calling for at least 30 percent of the world's oceans be put off limits to human activities by 2030 this would allow bush populations to recover it would allow habitats like seagrass meadow that we were out there in the indian ocean studying to be more resilient to these problems like that zones but it's going to require a real international collaboration it means that countries have to work together one thing about dead zones is they prove to us yet again that the oceans are all connected you can't take action just in one corner of that blue planet that we're on and hope that it will solve everything right away of course and also oceans like i was agricultural runoff in in the baltic could be impacting right up to me arctic and what happens in the arctic impacts us all so the solutions have to be global

and they have to have minister they have to have heads of state coming together next year to agree a strong growth roshon treaty that might help these areas off limits to humans and well why is it so important how important to our own the ocean or is the ocean across the world in the planetary system and in protecting us from the worst effects of climate. well roughly 50 percent of our oxygen comes from the ocean so when we're talking about the oxygenation eventually this is something that could impact us all but in the shorter term over 3000000000 people worldwide depend on the notion of them both their food and their livelihood now we have to have healthy options if these communities which often amounts that poorest most vulnerable in the world if they're to have a future we need to act and now it will finally other threats as well i know greenpeace of recent expedition and looking at deep sea mining one. absolutely deep sea mining is a industry which indeed starting in its tracks right now in this early stage but

all it really takes a hold and this is a. large machines and into mind the deep sea bed which is a incidentally one of the largest carbon stores in the world and so vital in the help in helping us mitigate against worst impacts of climate change well thanks so much for your expertise appreciate that it will become head of oceans at greenpeace thank you thank you. so this is our deserve these are the top stories of violence in gaza as into the 7th consecutive day follows hundreds of air strikes overnight the most intensive barents from israel since the offensive began on monday more than 158 palestinians have now been killed in the include israel's prime minister has vowed to continue the offensive on gaza for quote as long as necessary to her masters the resistance will not give in oh.
