7:02 pm
at increasing the divide between palestinian factions of blink and pledge millions of dollars of aid to garza. he insisted. huh should not benefit from it. and it occupied the jerusalem, 6 more palestinian families in ceylon are under threats of losing their homes. and israeli court was expected to review an appeal against their 4th expulsions. but the hearing has been postponed following more protests. remember a similar case and share job raf. nearby spark the recent escalation between palestinians and israel. first, here's how to add them, how made reporting from occupied east jerusalem on the court proceedings are less correct that we're now going to listen to all diplomatic editor james base with more from west jerusalem on secretary ben can visit jordan, it's a very important player and right now on the other side of the jordan river,
7:03 pm
it should be about now it's actually lincoln is with king abdulla discussing. the situation clearly discussing the see, saw in gaza trying to make sure that sees fall holds but for jordan, particularly. also this is a situation in the west bank and in jerusalem because remember that jordan has a role, the hashemite monarchy as the custodian over the religious sites in jerusalem. so that's a particular concern for jordan, for jordan. i mean, they have, i think, over the years of the trumpet ministration, those 4 years become privately very concerned about the situation. they didn't light the cushion plan, showered cushion of donald trump's son in law's plan for the region. they run nerves by the fact that he was moving away from the traditional status quo. i think they will be encouraged by the fact that sex re blinking. it operates a more traditional type of diplomacy as does the bio ministration as
7:04 pm
a whole box. so that could be blinking for now is only focusing on the seas for keeping the calm. he's not going further. and i'm sure jordan would like him to go further to restart negotiations towards a 2 state solution. well, that's now godhood i made. who does have more from occupied east jerusalem on that court proceedings about 4 expulsions and says one, the court has a german and as the defense lawyer said, well, the court has decided not to take any decision at stake. here was an appeal made by several families who had received a ruling forcing them to leave their home. they had been living in this 900. 67 in the neighborhood of the defense lawyer tried to do is basically off the court to get the attorney general of israel's involved. in this case, that would be a very similar pattern that what happened with the issue. the reasoning behind that
7:05 pm
is that the, the defense lawyer says that that same attorney general had ruled against palestinian families barring glad in shift. so he, they want to not put him on the spot and see if he would do the same thing when it comes to illegal jewish settlements in occupied east jerusalem islands. government has supported a parliamentary motion criticizing what's being described as israel's de facto annexation of palestinian land is past. the government can impose sanctions on israel and expel the re max of the vote on the draft is expected. later the leader of hamas is physical wing, and garza says a much larger conflict. could bray count in the future if the underlying issues aren't resolved. how false it has more from garza here on the street. you get an idea of the long term nature of the fall out of this war 44 people died in this
7:06 pm
massive building collapse and now 2 other buildings on the street. one of them right here behind us had been declared structurally unsound. 7 habitants had been told to leave. now, this was the 1st day that we've heard from houses top leader inside garza ya soon was in a news conference that was on the record. but frustratingly for the most part off camera, he was interesting on the issue of reconstruction, saying that the suggestion by the secretary of state or the united states, as many blinking that any reconstruction efforts coming through the u. s. or its allies should evade hum us and be done through the palestinian authority and the occupied west bank soon. well said that was a trick to try to divide the palestinian people further. however, he also said that any reconstruction would be welcome, that hamas would not take a single penny of it on the issue of the seas far, he confirmed that it was on condition. nobody wanted more to be done by the international community to reign in the activities of israel in jerusalem on the
7:07 pm
alex. so most compound, i didn't check your in occupied history of them. in particular, here with some of his recorded remarks that he began the news conference with your whole bill. i'm as you know, if the whole world doesn't move to stop and put a limit to the practices of the occupation and alex, a mask, shake gera, and the holy city. in general, it will be a reason to ignite a big religious war in the regent. and bring in a state of worry and widespread chaos in the middle east. and the whole world was israel says the large number of civilian deaths here on the street was an accident that it was targeting military tunnels on the ground here. since says that there are new military tunnels of that nature in this location and so denies that he also challenges the israeli narrative about what took place on the 4th night of the war . up in north western garza, there was a fake ground invasion attempted by israel. he said that was an obvious fake, that they knew was coming, that they did not allow any fighters to go on the ground and that they got the
7:08 pm
other ones who were in the tunnels out saying that there was 0 deaths from that attack. now israel says dozens were killed. he also said that we were here the media to verify exactly what was taking place. so i asked him if we also could go to those tunnels, see the military damage for ourselves in his words, to verify what had happened. he said he'd get back to us. a dodge court has ordered oil giant shell to cottage compet emissions by 45 percent by 20. 30, greenpeace. and friends of the earth brought the case. being hailed is a major victory for environmentalists. shall unsuccessfully argue, governments and not companies are responsible for meeting targets under the parents climate deal. the company says it will appeal the ruling. verdict could have major implications for similar cases around the world. so often has more from the hague. there was an absolute outburst of joy here at the court and the hague,
7:09 pm
