6:02 pm
killing at least 12 people. while solidarity protests for palestinians are taking place around the wild. large crowds has gathered in several cities as demonstrations, cool for an end to be israeli occupation. while it speak, try correspondent harry forth, that he's on the ground for us in gaza. day to this, he's fine out. does seem to be holding isn't too early for optimism. well, the people here are certainly optimistic that the sci fi is for real. there are reports of the egyptian mediators are doing what they can to make sure it is maintained. and that it is turned up towards something potentially more long lasting. the kind of deal that have been talked about for several years now. when we've been getting to the end of various smaller escalations but which has never really been fully implemented as far as the people's behavior. i mean, they're out on the streets. people are shopping, people are going to cafes and restaurants. and just really, there is still,
6:03 pm
that's the sort of hang on the mood of celebration of the late aid habits beyond that. of course, that's the majority. there are also tens of thousands who have the last homes, who have had the damage in the 11 days of extremely strong as strikes and devastating strikes from the israeli side. also hundreds of people who've been injured nearly 2000 according to the latest figures and hundreds more who are grieving. we spoke to one family. they was struck at the very, very beginning of this on the 1st monday, just minutes after the initial rockets were launched towards theresa and 7 children killed in that strike one adult severe injuries. some of the other of the family as well as one young father. we saw in the hospital he had 4 separate operations, had been in a coma 5 days. he wasn't fully aware of just what had happened to the rest of his
6:04 pm
family even now. so the piece kind of situation, no ceasefire is going to heal what they're going through right now. how are you mentioned some of the math devastation that these are 11 days of all new phones but also have critical infrastructure like hospitals. what are the priorities there now, especially given that we're seeing the middle of a table pandemic. we were speaking to the un humanitarian coordinator in hastings. she was on a tour of some of the worst places in gaza city a little earlier today. and she was saying when they were on their way in, they thought the main priority was going to be shelter, but a lot of people are returning to their homes as damaged as they may be. so now they are switching their attention very much to the medical situation, the health situation. already we have seen some aid getting in, in terms of medical disposable blood bags, 1st aid kit hygiene kit. she was saying that was particularly important because of the problems with the electricity with water pipes that have been severed. and so
6:05 pm
hospitals of course require those things to maintain proper hygiene. all set against the backdrop of a covey crisis, which therapy is, may be researching because of all the people coming together in this rather chaotic way inside schools to shelter from the bombing. the covert testing lab had to had to be moved from a health ministry building that had been damaged. it has been set up again in a more diminished capacity. but they were saying that some 50 percent of people in those schools were testing positive. so that is the short term immediate need. she was also saying that it terms of long term reconstruction efforts that needs to be a real shift in the way it's done. they can't go back to business as usual. it was apparent to us that as well as the, the new devastation and destruction that we were seeing, we were still seeing sort of older landmarks of unreconstructed destruction from
6:06 pm
previous was in the war before that. and so they're saying that needs to be a chain critical will internationally get things rebuilt and get people inside got more of a hope as the future which has been so just in any kind of better future hope really to be established for that to come about hurry for their with all the latest for us from gaza. thank you so much. harry. well, meanwhile, hundreds of people taking part in solar, derek, march of palestinians, and cities across the united kingdom as well as the rest of europe. marches are being held and manchester and london supported the calling on the government that temporary sanctions on israel off to its strikes on palestinian cities. there are also calling for a minute tree embargo to cut the supply of weapons while meanwhile, the white house was announced that the u. s. x ray state anthony ban can, will visit both israel and the occupied west bank next week. biden has promised extensive aid, both sides in the wake of this conflict. diplomatic editor james bass,
6:07 pm
has worn out from western some. the key diplomatic moment in the coming days is the arrival of the us secretary of state anthony, blinking in the region. we don't have any exact details of this trip, but he's going to be meeting is railey and palestinian leaders. clearly the international focus right now is getting humanitarian assistance into garza. a un security council resolution drafted by france is being rewritten to focus on humanitarian assistance. one of the problems there for the us is that it doesn't deal directly with mass, so there's going to have to work through intermediaries and the united nations. the big question for the blinking visit is whether this changes the calculations of the biden administration for the 1st 4 months they've had in power. they've not seen this issue as a priority. they've been focusing on the iran nuclear deal on climate change on afghanistan. and on relations with china and with russia,
6:08 pm
will they now change that and refocus on negotiations between israelis and palestinians of the u. s. actively pursuing them? offer more now on the diplomatic efforts that lead to this sci fi. let's speak to salton barracka. he's the director of the sense of conflict in humanitarian studies, the doha institute for graduate studies. he joins us now from doha salton. we've repeatedly been hearing talk of all the quiet diplomacy that went on behind the scenes to actually secure the piece by the really very few details around that. how did the mediations like egypt really get this done? well, i think in this case it had to be a collaboration of vacation between a number of actors in jersey is obviously close to, to israel has often channels of communication with israel plated very important role. they have established communications with us and have
6:09 pm
a history of working in the ever since 2008 and i thought it was trust there. and of course the united states and both and egypt enjoy good relationship where they're not state. so it's been a combined efforts when share was also done under the umbrella of the united nations. felt in your reading of this, how much did the u. s. influence here? how much did the u. s. influence this outcome? i think it says play a very important role. the small but important change that has been introduced to the united states position on the policy an issue in general has played i think a critical role. a speaking the discussions in maybe presenting israel with kind of automate conditions that they need to stick to and encouraging. ready egypt to go forward knowing that whatever effort they invest is not going to be abandoned
6:10 pm
at the end of the day. and of course within the us, although we had the area from president by and the usual rhetoric about supporting israel. and i think before the policy engine, this is shifting, it's a bit driven by the focus on ethical, foreign policy principles policy where human rights are respected. and of course this is a betty difficulties for that policy. if they stop with this company, and they're not able to stand out for the rest and they're doomed for many years to come. and of course, we should not forget that by didn't. and obama, wherever you related violence, and you know, during the use of your presidency, they had many difficult encounters with them. there was parting shot down to him in the united nations security council. resolution to the for which
6:11 pm
called and identified by katie. that also activities are illegal and the international law. and also if besides the voters of his are playing it's saw as an occupying power in line with, with the 4th geneva convention. in addition to that, i think. ready the rising voice amongst the grants in terms of the congress, the sort of oldest but now those and also in the sentence has been unfortunate as well. we finally sanders and his colleagues have signed 25 of them in the sentence, signed a letter asking for an immediate end to get into our fire and happening domestic pressure happening there as well. sorry to interrupt you felton . i do want to get back specifically to the ongoing talks that i understand. i still continuing around trying to solidify the sci fi and the mediation that's taking place there. do you have a sense of what's happening now and,
6:12 pm
and who's playing that role? we don't really have a specific information beyond that, it's been done collectively. ready the discussion is very much around the conditions that to sustain and i think it is very important, at least from her masters perspective, that is rather not the term another infringement of a lot. so mosque and put it into something that is in eastern and this is a position that they must say, suppose and by that and has spoken to that point today from the perspective of course it's about as, as wrap security on how mass seeming fighting rockridge. and of course. ready maybe some kind of guarantee that hum as well, not on my game, i mean, but the real that i'm here is that they have impose an incredibly strong, located on to 1000000 people in a very confined graphical area which has caused
6:13 pm
a huge, huge human cherry and consequences at the same time how much was able to re arms and they have shown amazing skills and innovation in recycling, including recycling. the huge amount of exposure that deserves throws out does not explode. so there is another, i think, in terms of israel security. but these are only the immediate concerns for us use for alternately be answer as by that has right the pointed to is and going back to the 2 states versus addressing that issue. and starting to work on a plan that it is able to preserve for the policy, use their dignity and their right to defend themselves alongside is health. and i caught that from that are high institute for graduate study. thanks for being with

6:26 pm
several of them about chicago being killed by either the military or the people. but then nothing came out of it. he came out to denounce such a statement in the video recording audio recording. so people actually very careful in the military said the, investigating, they're not seeing anything about whether he's been killed or injured. he's group. the book are, i'm faction where he's been leading since 2009 has not come up with a new video or any report or statement to see whether he's dead or injured. also, the rival fraction which is reported to have attacked his group. that's the islamic states in west africa, providence ice. what have also not issued a new statement. so right now people are just waiting to see what happens in the next coming days. fidelis has also been in this report, a death of the head of the all me and the pain crash. how significant is that? especially when it comes to the country security situation.

6:28 pm
her arm, though he left that there for a few months. so people were expecting that he would draw from his experience in not to be able to contain the increasing cases of violence across nigeria because he's not dr. book or her. i'm was so have a cases of insurrection in the salt piece. and also we also have cases off from my head classes in not center nigeria and did many challenges still ahead. fidelis and bother across that for us from the bridge. i thanks so much for della fella had few here on out there. the disturbing police body can video of an arrest that led to a black man's day and why it took 2 years for it to be really. i still it to you. welcome to freemans bite. $2400000.00. and we look at why new zealand government is being blamed for storing house prices and its hard, frank, for the golden state warriors for the 2nd year in a row that's coming up with p and port. the

a bit further south to the western cape and things are looking good for cape town. 22 degrees. ok, let's go for a closer look and see what we find. a cloud to be found. port elizabeth, 23 degrees. we do have some showers running through central parts of mozambique, coastal areas of not a gas car. and now back to keep down here is what we can expect to see over the next 3 days. plenty of sunshine. it looks like our next run at rain won't come until tuesday, and even then it's just a 40 percent chance of showers. 90 degrees will be the high for you on tuesday. the a life and death struggle for racial equality in a deeply unequal society. unfortunately, that was fine for the apartheid pushing within that group. they've been very close friends like a family living together over 50 years after his torture and death in police custody al jazeera world, the remarkable story of anti apartheid campaigner in them up the ladder or south
6:31 pm
africa. the man fought apartheid on a jazz. the precise tried and tested and that business is moving for israel's unmanned drug produces like a modified expertise game that's or at any expense. inflamed global demand for western, which many see as morally indefensible. people empower investigate israel's drone dealers on a just ah ah,
6:32 pm
hello again, i missed a. remind you about top stories, the salad. the fees fun between israel and mouse continues to hold. humanitarian aid has begun arriving in garza. families are heading home and business owners are getting back to work despite severe damage to buildings and infrastructure. meanwhile, marches in support, palestinians are taking patients. several european cities. demonstrations are going on, governments and her sanctions on israel office strikes on the palestinian territory . they also want military and barber to cut off the supply of weapons. and sri lanka has imposed the trouble in an effort to cover such and corona virus infections amid a 3rd wave. this comes as the islands key medical associations demand of the country locked down the country for 2 weeks. now, israeli media reporting allegations the pilots bombed some tower blocks in gaza out
6:33 pm
of anger rather than strategic priority. several anonymous pilots told the israeli website marco that they felt frustrated, but then military operation was failing to stay firing rockets over the border of more on this. let's speak to y'all. nathan shapiro. he is a former israeli rescue helicopter pilot, who himself was discharged from the all me back in 2003 for organizing a group of air force. pilots who publicly refuse to obey orders and participate in the continued oppression of palestinians in our lives in norway and joined us from other notice. and thanks for being with us. i just the context. i want to start by asking you why you actually decided to organize this campaign over the years ago. while it was 2003, then the after serving as a rescue pilot. for many years, i find that he opened my eyes during the 2nd intifada. seeing the horrible life of politicians and realizing that i'm basically fighting for the wrong side, i decided that i'm not just going to leave and find solution for myself. but i
6:34 pm
organized the air force pilots from all different squadrons. in these are the force attack apache by the f. 16 at 16 old branches of the air force we managed to convince even very high rank brigadier general fighter pilot and we publicly refused. we said that we are not willing to be part of this illegal immoral and basically participate in war crimes after world crimes. and of course, as a result of the me and my friends were discharged. so y'all, nathan, these suggestions, the pilots who participated in the latest rounds of strikes that they were reported the venting their frustration. does that sound potentially familiar to you without a part of the culture that you yourself experienced? well, i can tell you a lot about that because i think this frustration is not just the frustration of these pilots is the frustration of, of
6:35 pm
a giant beast that these multi super power that has no limit to is the weaponry and strength, military strength. but it's just impossible to kill the desire of millions of people to be free as jewish people as these really, that's what we learned from men from 1st our 1st day that you cannot kill the desire of people to be free. so we can talk a lot about the frustration of these war criminals. but i think the bottom line is very simple. i think they tell themselves some story about their morality. they try to hit the target from here and from there. so only the building that the heat will will be damaged, but it's like hearing i am a murderer saying i want to kill just the baby that i'm about to kill now and not
6:36 pm
the babies around them. so, but if, if you allow me just to say something to the got people sure. and to palestine and in general in palestine and the rest of the world, i want them to know that my hearts and the heart of hundreds of thousands of jews around the world is with them. we know we know that you are right and you deserve your liberty. you deserve to be free. and we as jews, as activist all around the world are going to put a lot of pressure. so eventually the countries around the world, we wake up to understand that we must disarm the israeli apartheid. we must liberate. because again, though, we must be colonized or palestine and dismantle apartheid and give equal rights for all the people there from the river to the sea and the right of return without
6:37 pm
treating millions of palestinians as human being. there won't be peace. israelis will never feel safe once they sit on the neck of millions of pedestrians that have no rights and are treated like animals younger than just returning to the culture within the israeli military. i'm curious in your personal experience, has there ever been an explicit order potentially given to pilots or suggestion that this kind of behavior that you're describing, that that would be acceptable? well, there are lots of lies that the leaders and their commanders in the pilots and all the soldiers are telling themselves it's a big consent manufactured by a big, big system for years and years and decades to plant these ideas in the minds of people that you can bump people from the air, you can bon buildings from the air in the most densely populated,
6:38 pm
placing the world. and in some way, you can tell yourself it's morrow. there is no way something like that can be morrow. and i think what we hear about this discourse of these pilots that are frustrated and talking about yeah, maybe it's helping or not helping it's irrelevant. it's like listening to bunch of nazi soldiers exterminating that. gotta get to the warsaw ghetto. debating what would be the best way to, to kill the jewish resistance. there, there is no way to kill the resistance of millions of people to, to be, to be free. jonathan shapiro there format is rainy rescue helicopter pilot. now speaking to us from oz, where we thank you so much for sharing your experiences and your thoughts with us here on the very much i'm leaving on and police in the u. s. stays of louisiana. have released body cam footage of the violent arrest of

a black man after being accused of a cover up that video shows ronald green being tailored, hunched and choked by the white offices. he then died on the way to hospital and that was 2 years ago. but the footage has only just been released following an investigation by the association press. i understand that green family is grieving at any loss of life. is tragic regardless of how i realize there is a great concern with regard to the incident. we share that concern. anytime the actions of our employees are calls into question, and even when use the 4th encounters or handle within the law and policy, it can be socket. is critical that we get it right. and when we don't get it right, must hold ourselves account. helen sasha has worn out from washington dc. the family
6:40 pm
