11:42 am
a microcosm of the scale of gun violence. we see elsewhere in other communities in our state and across the country. in north charleston, south carolina, a 14 year old girl was killed and 13 people were wounded. when a gunfight broke out at what police say was an illegal concert, no suspects have been apprehended. i said, and we were angry too at each other, and i didn't q who, who got hit another gunfight cost to people their lives in minneapolis. yeah, it was a very chaotic scene. officers dealt with a number of people who had been shot and we're laying on the ground in columbus, ohio police are searching for whoever shot one person dead and seriously wounded several others in a park after midnight. also in ohio, police say 3 people were killed and at least 3 wounded in shooting outside

violence. rob reynolds al jazeera los angeles and will say, nodded states warehouse prices are soaring, leaving many low and middle income families simply priced out. and it's being made worse as fewer homes are being built during the pandemic due to a shortage of building materials. and kalika reports from miami. the final part of our series on the rising cost of housing. despite a deadly pandemic south florida is booming in miami businesses and the wealthier relocating in droves attracted by lower taxes and sunny weather. that means a surging housing market. the medium price for a single family home, now, well over $400000.00 groups working to find affordable housing, having an increasingly difficult time. first time buyers like all these dell, s u, a priced out of them. not being able to do it. now. it is like when i will be able
11:45 am
to do it. this is the question, because i don't know if the prices are going down and we still, we are, we still are in the middle of the pin they make. we're not in an environment where we have a whole lot of public land that can be donated to create affordable housing. it's the story. charles daphne knows all to well. the land trust he works for focuses on building affordable homes in communities like miami's little haiti with costs rising, vital projects installed. when you don't have housing, we don't have adequate jobs and income to support housing options. if you don't have the ability to sustain a community, the idea behind subsidized public housing like this is to give families a chance to save and buy their own home. something increasingly out of reach. owning your own home is the foundation of the american dream. but even before the
11:46 am
pandemic came along, there was a shortage of affordable housing here. now things it was compounded by rising construction costs, stagnant wages, and the shortage of new bill homes, or factors that have big consequences for communities across the united states. the price of lumber hidden old time high this month, driven up by covered $900.00 supply issues. the impact on poorer communities is already being felt. so they've got 2 choices. you right. and then you start paying more, ryan is the landlord increase the surprises? and then that means you have less for everything else that you need to do in life. and eventually it hits a point where it's, it's attainable and you've got to relocate. affordable housing is a backbone of the economy, creating safe communities, jobs, an opportunity with rising costs, many and now facing stop choices with no solutions. insight. galico al jazeera miami, florida. something
11:47 am
a little different for you now from south korea where many island communities face the economic challenges of an aging population. a problem for many remote areas, but as roughly broad reports, one the islands to stay off the south coast is trying to change that with the color purple. it's literally everywhere you look purple. all the buildings big or small, and the few vehicles that are allowed to travel on the roads that connect them. the full bridges that now link these tiny islands with the outside world. right down to the plates, be tough. even the residents have embraced the purple life on the rocky again, fragile, or i think it's pretty. and the government here provides us with pepper clothes and jackets to wear about the the islands charge a small fee for the increasing number of tourists,
11:48 am
many of whom come appropriately dressed, to encourage you to get in the spirit visitors who bring something purple to get in for free, the inspiration for the may cova comes from the lavender, which grows here naturally. now thanks to the colors universal adoption, the islanders who previously got by on farming and fishing can ad tourism woke up all i did. but it was difficult to get to produce off the island to sell, but now with people coming here we can sell directly to them. so it's good and i'm happy. the purple islands fame has spread organically. thanks to tech savvy korean . and there hash tagging ways leading to ever more visitors looking for that perfect selfie. this a purple transformation has taken place just at the right time to catch the growing selfie taking trend. but in the past year,
11:49 am
it's also benefited from the south koreans looking for quirky tourism attractions at home because of the pandemic. if purple is your thing, this is the place for summer tourists wanting to travel overseas. it's maybe not quite what they had in mind, but they come away with holiday memories. in a cheery shade of purple public bride al jazeera, the purple island south korea. we're take you back to our top story and that is the visit by us secretary state antony blinking to israel and the occupied palestinian territory. the live shot here of the podium in the flags as we wait to hear from the secretary of state. and these ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu, who have been having discussions for the last hour or so while we wait for events, we talk to james bass diplomatic editor who is traveling on this trip, which and any blinking is taking it will be interesting, james,
11:50 am
i think to hear the tone which secretary lincoln takes, we know he will have support for israel. we know he will support israel's right to defend itself, but will there be a slight change of tone with regards to engaging with the palestinians and rebuilding garza? i think there will be, i think that's already been signaled and interviews that he's done before. he came here interesting that the press release announcing formerly that he was coming. he came out about 24 hours ago and that she came out from the white house from president biden, announcing the trip formally showing. i think that this trip, the secretary of state. yes, he's biden's top part of florida has official, but he's here with a direct or authority of the president. what he says is biden's word in many ways. and in that news release announcing it, it made the points that the there is still the u. s. is iron clad commitment is said to israel's defense, but it said they wanted to rebuild relations with the palestinians,
11:51 am
which after years of neglect so that, that 2nd part that's new in many ways. because of course, the by the administration is only be not in office for 4 months, the trumpet administration, their relation set with the policy authority completely deteriorated after the decision to move the u. s. embassy to jerusalem. and so, chance for a fresh start there. and obviously in the coming hours we got lots of other meetings after the netanyahu meeting 1st in israel, he's going to be meeting with the foreign minister and with the defense minister. but then importantly he travels to ramallah for that meeting with mahmoud abbas. of course, what he's not going to see is the effects of the so called precision bombing by israel and the utter destruction in many parts of gaza. just think you, when you said the words, they're biting administration, it made me think of nathan yahoo administration as well,
11:52 am
which is technically i can take a one at the moment. we know that israel simply cannot get out of this political deadlock and there was some suggestion that actually prime minister netanyahu may have benefited from the gulf war as far as his popularity goes. but the fact as he may not be in office, that much longer. no, he's currently the prime minister because he was a prime minister after the previous election. the current coalition negotiations are still under way. and right now it's the main opposition. the to the one who is part. he had the 2nd number of votes in the election. yeah. the peed who is trying to form a government, the coalition forming effort was put on hold jeering the 11 days of the conflict, but now has got underway. again. we understand that there'll be a meeting between the sexual state and mr. le peed at the end of the day when the secretary blinkin has come back from ramallah and his back in jerusalem also was
11:53 am
telling you that as i said a moment ago, he's meeting other key israeli leaders, including the defense minister benny dance. and it's interesting that on the state department list, it describes benny gans says, defense minister, an alternate prime minister. because you remember under the before this latest election, he was supposed to take over as prime minister. that looks unlikely, although i have to say, israelis have made it quite clear over 2 years and for elections, they can't make their mind up and then the to clear who should be governing them. and it's certainly not certain that they won't be another fist general election. that's certainly quite a strong possibility when the 2 men come out to those podiums and hopefully that happens sooner rather than later. james, what is the likelihood that prime minister netanyahu will bring up iran? because i wonder if that is really his. i mean, iran is always his big concern and actually what we're seeing now with regards to why the middle east piece and issues probably wouldn't be being discussed if it
11:54 am
went for what just happened in gaza. these readings would far rather talk about iran i've, i've sat when will lead as a travel to new york every september and the un general assembly. and this in to 70 speeches button for prime is missing yahoo. and then recent years, the amount of time he speaks about the palestinians gets shorter and shorter and shorter. that was one occasion i think what he didn't mention, the palestinians in the whole speech was about iran. clearly what's happened over the last 11 days, the focus of the secretary of state is on the, the aftermath of the conflict and trying to keep the si se fog going. so from the u . s. site that's all they want to talk about, but i wouldn't be surprised if there's a mention of iran and it's worth telling you there was a ceremony in the last 24 hours for the new. well, the outgoing mail side chief and the new more side chief taking over ensuring that these ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu talked about possible need for
11:55 am
independent action by israel on the issue of iran. well, that's something that's sort of was something that the bite and ministration really, really, why want to hear? because they're putting a lot of effort right now in trying to get back into the iran nuclear deal. that mean a lot of progress in vienna talks have been going on for some time now in the end. and we're not seeing a lot of public noise from the end of what's going on that, but they've made a lot of progress. one of the problems was this temporary deal with the a on monitoring which expired. that now has been extended for another month, giving them a little bit more time. but the real deadline in this, in some ways may well be the iranian elections, which coming up on the 18th of june. so this is a very delicate stage of this process, is that the bible ministration really wants to succeed. they really want to get back in that nuclear deal with iran. so any comments by the israeli prime minister?
11:56 am
i'm sure we consider pretty unhealthy, james, by our diplomatic editor on the road in west jerusalem at the moment. we will be back with him at the top of the hour because we're waiting to hear from the us secretary state anthony blinking and these ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu . we've seen some pictures of them arriving for their discussions, as we suggested with james their discussions, but may not have been going on. had it not been for 11 days of conflict in garza, but it's put the issue of middle east tensions and well ultimately may be one day, middle east pay back on the agenda. secretary lincoln there with prime minister netanyahu. he will also be meeting we are told the israeli defense minister ban again, who james also mentioned is listed as the alternate to prime minister. and he was supposed to almost job share with prime minister netanyahu. but of course was ready . politics is a very fluid situation. after these talks, it will be to ramallah for secretary of state lincoln to meet with the palestinian
11:57 am
president mahard about in the occupied west bank towards which well they haven't been in 3 years hasn't been direct engagement between the united states and the palestinian authority. in many years under the trump administration, so perhaps the signs of some change under the binding administration. the place that secretary blinking won't be going though, is garza, even though that was the world's focus for the last 2 weeks. he won't be visiting there, of course, because it is run by mass and mass considered a terrorist organization by the united states. we have our correspondent, very garza who we will be speaking to a little bit later on to find out more about how the people in garza, a coping after those 11 days of conflict. and what they may get out of any talks between the palestinian authority in ramallah and secretary blinking. right? that is you up to date with that story. plenty more. well news though,
