taken out the hotel, this was germany. we loved it when it was built and read it even when it was a major town it or the conflict in northern ireland in the late 20th century belfast europa. a new episode of war hotels on al jazeera. ah, the blockade and the cycle of violence all remain. this must be result. un warned, there'll be no long term peace in israel and palestine if the root causes of the conflict continue. ah madison, this is a lie from her also coming up a show support for palestra is tens of thousands valley in pakistan to protest

against israel's aggression playing a volcano, thousands in eastern democratic republic of congo are forced to escape their homes, offer an eruption, and we're in the georgia capital, the protesters are demanding the scrapping of a mega hydro electric dam projects. ah . the head of the un agency for palestinians has called in the international community to support a long term solution for the region saying there'll be no peace if the root causes of the conflict on the result. felipe, last, i mean he was speaking in gaza. 2 days after the cease fire agreement to end and 11 day conflicts between israel and gases on factions more than $250.00 people were killed, most of them palestinians in the deceased territory. i am deeply frustrated at this senseless episode of extreme violence that killed civilians destroyed

infrastructure and threw back several yes, but restoring a sense of normality is not enough. it is not the replacement for piece of the human rights of all the root causes of the conflict, remain the occupation, the force displacement, of which we had a strong reminder in ships lately to blockade on the cycle of violence or remain. these must be the result. it's been reported that 2 of israel's border crosses with gaza have been closed. the checkpoint was basically opened on friday, allowing foreign journalists to enter the strip. obviously it is highly false. it's been speaking to palestinians in the gaza strip. we're here in baked le here, right up in northern garza, we've been seeing these morning tents kind of springing up around the strip. this

one though, usually the individual families, individual homes. this is really a morning 10 to the entire neighborhood. and you can see what has happened here. this is just one home, but it's perhaps the most devastating story. this is a small courtyard outside. what was a family home? constricted space. it was full of teenagers and young people in that twenty's hanging out here. it was a thursday evening, the 1st thursday of the conflict, so about 10 days ago. and inside this courtyard, what looks like an artillery shell from a long range is where the gun hit and detonated and killed 4 people immediately. extraordinarily among those who are in there were a 13 year old go and 8 month old cousin. and somehow they were pushed out by the blast wave into the road here. and we met the 8 months old rockman and he just divide with a few scratches one on his face a couple on his body, but he is healthy and intact and smiling answer his family is just

extraordinarily grateful that this has happened while at the same time beings in grief for the rest of the neighbourhood here, because there are many others who are killed here and many others made homeless. you may have seen the pictures of hundreds of people fleeing south regards the on that same night. this is what they were fleeing their houses, pockmarked all around here. more than putting on somebody totally destroyed. we were hearing about another family that have left. they have almost somebody to come back to that isn't entirely destroyed, but they are too frightened to the children to traumatize. too frightened to come back. now this was the night of the most intense heavy, concentrated as strike and artillery fire from the israelis that we had seen up to that point. it was the night when they faint invasion, trying, according to these were the media reports to drive and indeed to be ready government to drive. how much fight is another fighters underground and into

defensive positions, only to be struck from the and from the long range artillery. this is obviously a civilian area, full of families and children who are on the 1st day of eat, out and about trying to enjoy it, even amongst the, the warfare that was going on. and that will say, i came straight here and has had a devastating impact in terms of loss of life, homelessness, and trauma. when the secretary of state is expected to visit israel later this week and meets with both palestinian and israeli leaders, diplomatic at a james base is joining us from west to slim james the rebuilding begins, but of course, so does the diplomatic effort. there's going to be a lot of attention being paid to antony blinking visitors and absolutely the u. s. is in many ways, the key player here. if they're going to restart negotiations, if they're going to restart, what they keep calling a peace process, but a process the proceeds know where the path than the us is the lead to follow. and

the secretary of state, as you say, is here on wednesday and thursday. so people will be following. i think everything he says on that visit and everything he says before he arrives here because he's been on television in the last hour or so on. the american, a b, c network on there sunday politics show that he was asked about um, sales to israel, because of course, the bombardment of garza, much of that weaponry, came from the u. s. and he said that israel has a right to defend itself in the u. s. will continue to help it to defend itself. he was asked about iranian involvement with hamas, and it's weaponry. he made it clear that iran is involved in many fronts in the middle east, but then he made a strong defense of why that needs to be that he ra, a nuclear deal, which is still being negotiated in vienna. quite a bit of progress here. but at a very delicate stage, so that's probably why he didn't want to jump into that on. so he was also asked

about whether this was likely to happen again. and he said it was unless certain things changed is vitally important that the palestinians feel hope and have opportunity and can live in security just as it is for israelis . and there should be equal measures in a, in a democratic society. that is, i think, an obligation of the, of any government. so ultimately i think that, that, that hope that security, that dignity can, will be found in a palestinian state. but meanwhile, we have to do everything. we can both to address the immediate situation which is humanitarian reconstruction in gaza, starting to improve people's lives in a concrete way. ultimately, he said there will be a palestinian state. he also said in the interview that could move towards something that brings a lasting solution to this problem,

but what was lacking in those words and he had the chance to say it in a reasonable length. the interview was any suggestion that the u. s. is going to try and kick start diplomacy to actively restart some sort of piece process. and certainly so far in this administration and present biden's only been in power for 4 months. this has not been a priority. the israel palestinian situation. it's been focused on the rom, nuclear deal on afghanistan on relations between china and russia. and it may be that some, and they'd ministration of decided that after this conflict, things are likely to become for the next few months. so maybe even the next few years. but we'll see when he gets here in the coming days he arrives in the region on wednesday, whether there is any effort by the us to actively start some sort of piece negotiation. james, thanks very much. james bayes are diplomatic at

a talking to us from western was one. the palestinian health menace is wanting of a new wave of corona, virus infections across the west bank and gaza. thousands of families fed their homes and move to un on schools when israel began their strikes. and a few that cannot any if you knew how yet the recent wave of covered in 1900 instructions was coming to an end in the west bank and the gaza strip. but unfortunately, we're seeing an increase in numbers. we've seen lots of cases in shelters and because of the number of people who move their israeli occupation is to blame. i would urge everyone, especially those living in shelters to get vaccinated because we don't want the virus spread among our families. there's been tension again to be like so most compound and occupied east jerusalem out of it, reopened for jewish visitors. it was a flash point during the latest israel palestine conflict. the began on may 10th for the 1st time since then more than 200 israeli jews have been allowed to enter

the courtyards israeli security forces to say, escorted them. but during the visit, 5 employees of the mosque board, what arrested just hours ago. a 2nd group of jewish visitors entered the compound without any incident project gathered in pakistan's largest city to voice solidarity with palestine. these are life pictures of demonstrated in karachi, waiting, palestinian flags and banners rallies of been taking place across pakistan. since the recent conflict began, the country is one of israel's most vocal critics come all harder, has the latest from islam about when the reports from the southern portion of karachi speak of thousands of paid for protesting in that city. and that i've got to include the border of the german law, me as well as family members, children all attending that particular riley, condemning the recent israeli aggression and in support of the palestinians. also,

it is important to note that the government of pockets on it also launched a scheme. asking that fitted in gen ed generates late to head dog palestinian paper and project on that in the door to contention when it comes to the support of the palestinian college. whether it's the lawyer, the liberal society members, why did it human rights groups? everybody's on board when it comes to this particular issue. a prominent or any politician says the countries 3 months monitoring agreement with the us nuclear watchdog has expired. there any and state news is reporting the parliamentary speaker said inspectors may no longer have access to images of nuclear sites and comes as efforts are underway between across the u. s. and world powers to reinstate 2015 nuclear deal. lava from a volcanic eruption has cover dozens of homes and eastern democratic republic of congo. a thought was said to be 3 stories high at some points. in golfing large

. 2002, the vast river of lava cut all the way through the city of goma, destroying sways of it, killing more than 200 people, and then ending up in lake kiva. so that where that lava destroyed all those home buildings and everything else, it cooled down and it sacked and became a plane of very bubbly, spiky black rock on which people slowly and steadily rebuilt their homes. people even took picks and tittles to the volcanic rock and cut it up to make blocks or even houses in goma made from lava. what was larva volcanic rock? now, the city has grown quite steadily quite fast since then. it's the nexus of the mineral trade for the region. it's certainly a place where there's quite a lot of money moving around the leather, a very few formal jobs. so that draws people in from the countryside. also, other people are displaced by groups. go ahead and order 0 political stand off in
