spread far beyond here violence it is continuing a short drive from an israeli settler was filmed taking aim at palestinians to were later reported shot and injured these were the arrests that followed in a settler israel's prime minister calling the explosion of racial violence the 2nd front in this crisis the other front has so far not relented more heavy rocket barrages out of gaza in our school on a synagogue was struck israeli attacks on gaza are also unrelenting the toll in people killed in displaced in homes destroyed still mounting israel's security cabinet reportedly not discussing a rumored move toward cease fire negotiations the prime minister taking his argument on to u.s. television were trying to degrade hamas as terrorists and to degrade their will to do this again so i hope it won't take long but it's not immediate but there's also report that he jumped offered a truce hamas said yes you said now why. well that's not what i know and frankly

if hamas thought that it could just fire not rockets and then sit back and enjoy a community that's forced by nightfall it shakes your are the checkpoints had been reinforced with heavy blocks even if a cease fire is coming between israel and hamas the violence here in the occupied west bank and in israel for now has a momentum of its own very force it all just syria occupied east jerusalem meanwhile the u.s. has told the u.n. security council it's ready to offer support of israel and hamas a cease fire that's as china accused the by the ministration of blocking a joint resolution on the crisis question so many has more now from the united nations it was the security council's 3rd emergency meeting in a week but the 1st in public and it started with an appeal by the u.n. chief for the fighting so hot the senseless cycle of bloodshed terrible destruction must not immediately all parties must respect international with the law

international human rights law or reflecting the urgency of the moment some council members had their foreign ministers participate that was also the case for the palestinians israel is the thieves who hasn't entered our house and if the right thing in our family it big destroys our homes or presidents or people. innovation absolutely narration the gates after big and then. the security that would be nice us israel's u.n. ambassador accused hamas of carrying out indiscriminate attacks for political gain and putting its own civilians at risk israel sees everything villian death as a tragedy hamas sees every israeli civilian death as a victory israel uses its missiles to protect its children hamas

uses its children to protect its minutes hours even as the violence escalates the u.s. has blocked the security council from speaking with one voice emphasizing instead it's only a shin efforts the united states has made clear that we are prepared to lend our support in their offices should the parties see a cease fire norway china and tunisia have been leading work to negotiate a joint statement of the council frustrated by the lack of security council action on an issue that's been on the council's agenda for more than 70 years china's foreign minister called out the united states as the only dissenting voice and promise to keep pushing until the council can speak as one christian salumi al-jazeera the united nations where u.s. president joe biden says his administrating is working towards what he calls a sustained calm between israel and palestine his remarks were in a video released tomorrow the white house has virtual celebration on sunday but

prominent muslim advocacy groups in the u.s. boycotted the event. also believe palestinians and israelis equally deserve to live in safety and security and enjoy equal measure of freedom prosperity and democracy and my administration is going to continue to engage powers through the israelis and other regional partners to work toward sustained calm well the muslim out of this a group the council on american islamic relations tweeted earlier that we cannot in good conscience celebrate with the biden administration while it literally aids abets and justifies the israeli apartheid government's indiscriminate bombing of innocent men women and children in gaza what john nichols is national affairs correspondent the progressive magazine the nation he says precious mounting on the us president to distance himself from his israeli counterpart. i think that by the ministration had hoped to stand back from

a lot of middle east issues and focus more on domestic policy and what has developed in israel and palestine over the last 10 days or so has forced this administration to and just to take what's going on there much more seriously it's not that they weren't concerned but right now this one and center issue the president's initial sponsor which was to express a great deal of solidarity with israel not to mention palestine this was a couple days ago was very controversial in the u.s. and drew a lot of criticism from his fellow democrats and so use some evolution in it to mention the circumstance of the palestinians but there is still a lot of division bernie sanders who was president biden's chief democratic opponent for the nomination in 2020 wrote an opinion piece for the new york times the other day headlined the u.s.

must stop being an apologist for netanyahu government and so you see very prominent democrats stepping out and being frankly quite critical of long term u.s. policy but that you know also includes the current u.s. policy and so sanders's spoken out other senators such as elizabeth warren christan hollen from maryland and many many members of the u.s. house of representatives have been outspoken on this. time for a short break here not just iraq when we come back a report from one of the british towns where covert 19 vaccinations are being scaled up because of fears over there in from india. and. tired frightened unsure about their future and we follow the plight of migrants to see what crossing the u.s. southern border more than stay with us. but

forced to flee using the hashtags journalism is not a crime and we demand press freedom now this photo in fact shows journalists outside the destroyed building and of course social media has also been a driving force behind many of the protests elsewhere for example this was the scene if you just wait there they go this was the scene in london just hours after saturday's attack and in another part of the world hundreds of thousands of people took part in a free palestine march now at the football english f.a. cup final on saturday night in the u.k. less the city's hamza chaudry was the palestinian flag in solidarity as you see just there as he's picking up his medal but not only that we've also had celebrities as well like jihad and the weekend they've been sharing their thoughts too with their millions of followers and also israeli hollywood actress gaga disabled comments on her post that says israel deserves to leave live rather as

capital santiago. i'm at a polling station right now where they are counting still the votes only about 1.5 percent have been tallied so far nationwide so we really don't have an indication of the results but it's really looking like the more conservative candidates are going to have a much higher representation than one would have expected had there been a higher turnout especially of young people across the country we saw that there was a much lower turnout some people say it was because they've lost confidence in the institutions in general in electoral processes but that doesn't quite explain why then they came out in such large numbers last october to vote in favor of a new constitution so that's there's going to be a lot of soul searching about that and we've seen a lot of long faces as well here in this area where one of the right wing at a rather a very new right wing political party is actually winning one of the by the largest

detected in india has now become the most dominant in parts of the u.k. in particular bolton and blackburn in the north west of england where cases of more than doubled in a week as general reports it's spec's it's especially concerning as more restrictions are set to be eased on monday. ahead of the next stage of england's exit from lock down long queues at a pop up vaccine center in the northwest town of bolton a scaled up vaccination campaign has seen jabs dispensed to 600 people and hour over the weekend there are concerns that the resumption of indoor gatherings from monday will lead to a surgeon infections led by a new variant 1st discovered in india and if that would get back today it. is why it is you know if you don't want me in the very end is that a worry for you it is a letter back on it don't know anything about us i think it's good that you get as many people vaccinated possible but you have to be getting your yeah right yeah
