5:06 am
deserved to live safely and securely and enjoy equal measures of freedom, prosperity and democracy. my administration will continue our quiet, relentless diplomacy toward that end. i believe we have a genuine opportunity to make progress and i'm committed to working for life out of washington. out of here is gabriel. alexander is that for us, that after a great deal of criticism in the last few days over the perception that the administration appeared to drag its feet over this crisis. yeah, that's right. increasingly, progressives within the democratic party were pressuring jo by both publicly and privately, to be more aggressive in trying to stop these really aggression. they were saying that it's not good enough to simply suggest that israel needed to de escalate and not just simply suggest that the israel needed to enter into
5:07 am
a ceasefire. but progressives were encouraging biden to demanded benjamin netanyahu . well, in the, in, we're not sure if he simply demanded it or not, but bottom line is, is that the white house and joe biden were clearly very pleased that ultimately they did get a cease fire. but biden, in his comments on announcing the cease fire, did say that the u. s. would, in his words replenish the iron dome defense system that is real uses. and also said that the u. s. would work through the palestinian authority to, to pursue peace and that they were, the u. s. would work through the united nations to pursue avenues for humanitarian aid to the palestinian people. but sometimes it's not so much what someone says is what they don't say that's important as well. biden made while he bite and mentioned that israel has a right to defend itself. as he said previously,
5:08 am
he did not mentioned that is that the palestinians had the same right in his view. never made no mention of that and also did not mention the disproportionate number of palestinians that were killed over the last 11 days compared to israelis. nevertheless, though you could tell that by no, i was pleased that there was a cease fire, something that he and the white house had been working towards for many days now. he said gape, that he's optimistic about the prospects for peace. indeed he sending his secretary of state to the region in the coming days. yeah, we're hearing from the state department within the last few minutes that secretary of state anthony blinking is expected to go to the region in the next few days to meet with both palestinians and israelis, and other regional players. exactly. when these meetings will take place in a where is unclear at this point, but it does show perhaps that the administration does want to use this cease fire
5:09 am
as an opportunity and want to seize on this opportunity to push for some more stable and longer lasting peace beyond simply the ceasefire, the by an administration did not want to focus on middle east peace to in the 1st year of his presidency. there are more focused on domestic issues and on the international stage. wanted to stay focused on russia, china, and to a lesser degree iran. nevertheless, the events, the past 11 days in the region clearly have thrust middle east peace to the top of the white house agenda. now, it's just a matter of how aggressively they want to try to pursue it and how much buy wants to put the full force of the us diplomatic apparatus if you will in motion. so the signs now that we're hearing that a blinking will be going to the region does indicate that at least in some degree,
5:10 am
there is some incentive now to try to pursue some more longer lasting piece. gave many thanks. houses. here is gabriel elizondo. they live in washington the pen mixed reactions and skepticism among israelis. intel a div. the seas far as good for humanitarian reasons, so that the civilians relax a little bit on both side. i'm skeptical though that it will really be kept for a while. i don't think israel has achieved much there. know anything new agreements about the future? nothing in the fire won't last 8 hours. they will start shooting gus rockets again and they will just try to kill our people. it's like a big it's like it's good that. 6 will end, but unfortunately i don't feel like we have much time for,
5:11 am
for the next escalation you came here, denied because we want to call for the media. this bar, we want to stop the tech and the tech and straight away because it's costing too many lives on both sides of civilians. under 0 iran con reports from west jerusalem on the day of fighting before the cease fire took effect. this is generally a refugee camp in gaza when israel occupied their homes in 1948 palestinians came here and sought shelter and they've been here ever since. right now, the camp houses around 90000 people most were born here and they've never seen that harris old homes. now this new generation is also lost. there's around 2 am on thursday, the radio was one of the residents of the camp and a phone call that an attack was coming. not just one house, but the whole street, a 3 m. the bombard and struck. the destruction is self evident. use of our day has
5:12 am
been married for a year. he took out bank loans to furnish his house. the furniture has been destroyed, but he says the loans are still there. but and i mean with the, we were sleeping inside the house when we heard shouting, get out, get out the whole living is going to be bombed. we went to school for sale too, but they were full. so we sat in the streets just waiting the united nations that runs the camp is still assessing the damage if they have enrolled, they also risk hitting civilian infrastructure and my colleagues tell me that water pipes have been damaged in western slum diplomacy continues apace. as the check slovak and german forum and it says, arrive for a visit. these ready foreign ministry is calling this visit, one of solidarity. he was all smiles at the podium as a german and he's ready for a minister spoke to one. we have always emphasized the israel has the right to self defense and is where i was now making use of this right includes preventing the facilities from which attacks on he's ready targets originate from continuing to

5:14 am
have seen 1111 days. what we haven't seen in the last years, what's more of it? so it's really disappointment. that's the only after 11 days and then the community build up some efforts for the fire to take place and we have 20 minutes away from it. so we didn't know what would happen next. i haven't seen in my life any really strong efforts and strong infrastructure for a peace process. i don't know how this would be built on these other messages. we keep here every plan after around 2 escalation and additions, and we haven't really touched a really strong political will and actions suitable to put us through this process . i keep thinking that we shouldn't be going back to the status call before the 11 days were the last duration. and i ran back by member the memory, tried to remember a year where we had a good life and i can't find the school to go back to. so peace became a dream or even a theory that we tried to achieve and manage interactions heavily. a lot of the, the be the beauty of the years because of the speed of that has not been achievable
5:15 am
. and so i don't know how we're going to she piece because i don't see a good infrastructure for it. tens of thousands of people have gathered for the funeral of a 17 year old teenager who was reportedly killed by israeli security forces in northern israel. the death of mohammed k. one comes amid hyper tension between israelis and palestinians. citizens of israel county lopez are diane reports. yeah. in the northern israeli city of my mourners carry the proof of 17 year old homage he want. the family says he was shot in the head and killed. under cover is really officer. the death comes amid writing tension between israelis and palestinians. citizens is israel the day he was shot police say they responded to reports of men who were trying to attack is really murderous. they opened fully read a vehicle that had run over
5:16 am
a car. and they say they're now investigating whether key one was in the car that was hit in the shooting in the streets. there's grief and outreach well, it was far too young. people have come from all the very israel and palestine to attend the funeral. i think that these rarely security forces intentionally killed him. to scare up the youth. he wants funeral morphed into a protest against violence and discrimination of palestinian israeli as long as there is provocation against us and our religious sites, it will be a difficult situation. there is provocation from the settlers who are being supported by the israeli government. we are protesting because we have our dignity, dignity is the only thing we have now. palestinian citizens of israel make up 20 percent of the country's population. most people who live in my father speak arabic and hebrew,
5:17 am
they often complain of systematic discrimination. unfair access to housing, health care and education. the last time violence broke out in sight, israel by palestinian israeli was on september 2000 during the 2nd intifada. with many here save this time around, the inter can, you know, unrest is much worse regardless of the seats lawyer between hamas and israel. many believe the simmering tensions will not see any claim. kathy, a little bit of a n. now, did you tell us to the ends in lebanon, many of those descendants of those who sent the 948 war, watched the violence from afar. protesting was all they could do. the santa hot reports from bay roofs, they sense that a new reality has been created where he, the ashleigh has never set foot in his homeland, but he holds on to his palestinian identity. he was born in lebanon over the decades. the 51 year old has watched his fellow palestinians fight his way. the
5:18 am
occupation at 1st with stones and now with long range rockets. but he says the conflict now is a turning point in their struggle that can exceed him him. i won't take israel because this is our land. so i say palestinians living and villages occupied since $948.00 played a critical role. the fact that they have now revolted will hoping israeli generations of palestinians have grown up in exile, descendants of many of those who left or were expelled during the 1948, palestinian israeli war. many have felt helpless and powerless as they watched the deadliest violence in years in the occupied palestinian territories. but at the same time, they feel the narrative is changing. recent events have highlighted the underlying reasons behind the repeated cycles of unrest and violence. the fact that there is a people oppressed suddenly real, a lot is judge,
5:19 am
the world is reacting. there is support for the palestinian people who sing the injustices day and you will know that there is an occupation for they know we have a cause a cause that has not gone away. the latest violence was not confined to gaza and palestinians in the west bank occupied jerusalem and across israel mobilized a few months ago when we visited this camp, the feeling among palestinians was different. they had lost hope when some arab countries find the normalization deals and establish ties with israel. the trump administration called it the dawn of a new middle east. they now tell us the palestinians who are resisting our, showing the world. those accords won't bring peace to israel hausteen's and not relying on rulers, but the people who are filling the squeeze from the united states to arab countries, to europe carrying the palestinian flag, lamb and remains did 1st. people never received
5:20 am
a seat or humility to cease out of the attack on the acc, some mosque, and attempts to drive more palestinians from their homes in jerusalem triggered the latest round of violence. but the policy of explosions dates back to 1948 of mohammed who is older than the state of israel is living proof than their elders. either they root look at other well, he is now spade as accusing morocco of blackmail over its apparent listing of border controls. after thousands of refugees and migrants crossed into the spanish enclave of so you to this week. spanish police detained as many as 8000 people who swam in to say, as from morocco or climbed fences. i'll just here is bernard smith is that the spanish military standing guard, again here at the beach at see you to just on the other side of the fence is a morocco and it's back around. jesse, the thousands of migrants cross earlier this week and the ability with which they
5:21 am
so easily cross seems to have been influenced by how the moroccans on the other side decided to enforce or not enforce. border security. morocco is displeased by decision of the spanish authorities to allow entry to spain the hospital treatment to him. golly, he's the leader of the policy mario front. it seeks independence from a rock and run western sahara. but this event is not gone without tragedy. earlier today, a body washed up on the beach here. so if the only known fatality from that crossing and an indication of the desperate circumstances that there are in morocco and elsewhere in northern africa. and yet another indication of how people a desperately trying to leave those countries in search of a better life in your at least 100 people are now confirmed dead after a powerful sy clone hit india's western coast. the indian navy is recovered. 49

sitting us president to ever meet with the north korean leader, donald trump, so called love affair with kim jung and was often shaky rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself. still, he helped his efforts would change the relationship. washington house was feeling yang for all the hoopla and all the pageantry with the stomach between the president, trump and north korean leadership. and all of the boasts about how things were going change for the better and did nothing really change at all. and essentially, we're back to square one just before the new president joe biden was inaugurated in january, north korea launch what it called, the most powerful missile on the planet. stark reminder, appealing gangs, desire to continue its weapons program as byte and prepares for his 1st white house meeting with south korean leader moon j n. north korea hangs over every discussion. i think that i know,
