4:00 pm
water, if they haven't at all, because the cold weather has let broken pipes and taken water treatment plants offline. grocery store shelves are largely they're leaving residents lined up in their cars for food and water. president joe biden says he's clearing the entire state. the disasters out there is hope, sustain temperatures above freezing beginning saturday. ah, this is al jazeera ah, hello and welcome i and peter w. you're watching the news. i live from our headquarters here. in the next 60 minutes. we asked for them to give us the gift of forgiveness. emanuel macro seeks to men ties and make amends. for frances rolled in the 1994 rwandan genocide.
4:01 pm
this fine, plain name has been hosting our rooms are being used for me. we have not seen evidence in this. we caught the human rights chief raised his allegations of israeli war crimes as a special session on a few scenes in the occupied territory. it can be forced to flee. thousands escaped from the eastern, crumbling city of goma under the threat of interrupting volcano. the us president seeks on says, ordering and urgent investigation is the origins jacobus 19. and i'm kind of how much not have all the data sets down as real madrid manager following a trophy list the season. ah,
4:02 pm
the french president and manuel macro has asked the people of rwanda for forgiveness over his countries rose in the 1994 genocide ties had been strained from years of accusations, but france was complicit in the killings. frances had back president polka gummies rivals in the previous government during the civil war. micron acknowledged his country ignored warnings, and in his words, defacto stood by a genocidal regime. but he failed to make an outright apology. i know i'm going to know so and putting myself with humility and on your side today, i am recognizing our responsibilities in gang involved since 1990 in a conflict in which it had no precedence. france did not know how to hear the voices of those. they warned it also overestimated strength to be able to stop those who were already there with france and not understand why wanting to obstruct a regional conflict or civil war was in fact, staying alongside
4:03 pm
a genocidal regime. well, in an historic sign, a reconciliation, president cook, army praised, microns acknowledgement, his words were something more vulnerable than an apology. the, they were the truth speaking, the truth is a risk, but you do it because it is right live. now to correspond malcolm web, who's in kigali for us here on the news, malcolm, how will those words from this your macro be received by the people who live through and survive the events of 1994?
4:04 pm
well, certainly for those who feel that they were let down by the french or even the french was responsible complicit in killing loved ones. that is going to definitely going to mean something strong indeed. but it is difficult to speak to people about these things. in rwanda, it's very of a sensitive topic and a lot of people don't feel comfortable. certainly saying anything that questions the official accounts of the events of the 19 ninety's from kennedy's point of view . he said that this was better than an apology or there, as you mentioned in the ensure, it wasn't, in fact, an apology, and certainly call me any accident microns stopped because stopped short of giving an apology. something that would have left him very vulnerable to attack a home from france is far right and some powerful figures in the french military would have objected to that kind of message. but nonetheless, pul konami's words of it being better than upon an apology,
4:05 pm
certainly show that he was very receptive indeed to this message and shows a great soaring of relations compared to what we've seen between miranda and france for the last quarter of a century. as far as miss jo macros concerned and the reception from polk a gummy, missy macros. country is suffering and suffering a lot because a corona virus, i guess his critics might say, well, hang on, why are you taking the eye off the bowl to go and do this. now it's perfectly valid, of course it is. but is the timing significant? well, it follows number events of lead up to this. i mean, it was 11 years ago president sa cosy, came here, but didn't say anything nearly as didn't acknowledge nearly as much of a role as michel has just now forgotten. he's visited paris twice since mccolan came to power 2 years ago. things have been steadily storing and in both
4:06 pm
governments. rwanda and franz commissioned reports in the last year or 2 that were both published earlier this year into franz's role in the genocide. and now both of those reports kind of pretty much what has been the p s line all along is that france was to some degree responsible or even complex it's, it could be depending on, on who you are. now we need to report certainly shouldn't be seen as anything that's in any way independent. they're written by 2 players. very much active in this conflict in the early 19 nineties and the genocide in 1994 here in miranda. so they should definitely be taken more of a measure of the political sentiment between these 2 governments this time. but the, the outcome of those reports was one very much showing france is moving over to the government, run the narrative on the events of that time. malcolm,
4:07 pm
thank you very much, malcolm well, correspond to the county busy and you say here on the news, alice move onto the big story so far today is what he strikes and garza could amount to war crimes. those are the words of the you and human rights chief michelle bunch let. she was speaking of the opening of a special session of a you and human rights console. it was called to assess the grave situation across the occupied palestinian territory. members are considering a draft resolution calling for an independent investigation into potential human rights violations in the recent conflict is found to be in this proportion and what's the impact on the building on how to make on war crimes. on the other hand, it is also a violation of international humanitarian law to locate military assets in the populated areas or 2 lounge attacks from them. however,
4:08 pm
the actions of one party do not show the other from its obligations. the international in a moment will get reaction on the ground in gaza, una l said is standing by for us there. first let's go live 2 different together, james base joining us on the news out of west jerusalem. james, hello again. so is this the human rights council displaying teeth, and how much power does it have here? if we're talking about an investigation into allegations of war crimes, the human rights council is not a powerful part of the un. they have the ability to pass resolutions. but in most cases, they are not binding on any one, but they can set up bodies. and that is the resolution that is currently before the human rights council to set up a new ongoing, independent, international commission of inquiry into what has happened in recent weeks. that's
4:09 pm
a resolution we expect to vote on in a couple of hours in the un human rights council already being denounced by israel, which believes the human rights council. there's boss, that's been his long standing view. in fact, it was a key factor in persuading the trump administration to pull out of the human rights council. something that was reversed very early on in the by did ministration. these righty ambassador to the u. n. in geneva saying that there was a ritual where israel is singled out, the palestinians though, and we have read a multitude of foreign minister. also speaking at the meeting. they say this is important and they say accountability is the important next step. well, these are not just reports by human rights, parts of the us that will have it and she go on the library shelf and gather dusk. think something's changed and that's the international criminal court which has an active investigation into the situation in the palestinian territories. so when mit michel bachelor says something may constitute war crimes, there is now
4:10 pm
a much more real chance that that could be war crimes charges in the hey, as i say pete about, that's a vote coming up in geneva in a couple of hours and add to that on in the other part of the un in new york, in the main for of that part of the un has teeth, although i don't expect any resolution or anything today. but the security council will be discussing the situation and the coming out to any reaction from the israeli government where you are. the only reaction of these railey government was, as i said, from these railey ambassador to, to the united nations in geneva. who again said that the, this was the human rights council, concentrating on the israel. she said that 30 percent of all the special sessions have been about israel. she says is biased against israel. of course, many others do not share that view. james, many thanks, james. based out of the matter, get us a johnny's live there from west jerusalem. human outside is our reporter in garza
4:11 pm
so you know, lots of cash, lots of money, lots of donations in coming now to gaza. but it's not just as simple as having the money. it's got to be used properly to rebuild the occupied territory. yes, indeed. i mean as for the families who have their houses, it's troy and are now the place which we are talking about. is the family in got stuff, they want the reconstruction process to start if in end actually as soon as possible, they want their home back, they want to a place to stay. and of course, for the people who are suffering of an employment and, and not to any, any other sorts of livelihood or income. once more investments want industry is to be constructed. but also about the un meeting and how it's
4:12 pm
how the people are reacting towards that for them. it's not just about targeting billions and the residential building that is considered a crime. but living in this definitely these for more than 14 years now is also considered our war crime. and honestly gotten a feel that they are abandoned by the international community that they are in their i just dakota compelling even more with the corona, with the worries and the, and now the reconstruction process that has not even been jani proceeded with a plan. so the prices are just pounding more. they know that this period is going to be a long period for them. very devastating actually for most of the families the read
4:13 pm
because the strengths not knowing their reality of how things might end in the coming future or in the near future. okay. we have to leave it there. human life for us in gaza. thanks very much. you minute talk to you soon. i'm sure. joining us live from rome is out to 0, senior political analyst, my one be shower, my one. what are the chances realistically, that anything concrete comes out of what the human rights council has been discussing today? what of course, difference, what do we mean by concrete drive? i think the best symbolic weight of anything. see this coming out of it, of course is important because clearly the balance of power is in favor of israel. and i might say, but it is. i'm do not have space. so the only recourse for the senior is missile for the national public opinion or the so called legal case against is right, which by itself would be an inspiring and i'm what there's a thing factor for that sort of that it could come in where the palestinians and
4:14 pm
from the city and struggle, etc. so in as far as he watched, counselor is concerned. it is really more symbolic or anything else because even if they do get a decisive resolution, it can be lucian, that's not necessarily implementable. few days ago when we had the egyptians, the jordanians, and i guess by implication as well, the americans in effect, going with this conversation which was look, we've got to address the central core issues here. we've got to look at the root causes, if you will, the only people that are saying that or carrying on that conversation. now, a people like amnesty international, we had the local representative on our 10 g news. how do you get the sense that that conversation has already begun to fade away, even though there was another another feeling perhaps a week ago, which was we got to strike while the iron is hot, whilst this huge issue is fresh in people's minds. i think this is
4:15 pm
central and your question. the answer to your question is, is of importance. because there's a general sense, especially after this very particular war in gaza. that the root causes are very important to address more than ever before i would say. and, and actually you and human rights council is about to do just that the, the resolution that they're supposed to be passing in actually for the 1st time addresses the issue of the root causes. and when we talk about root causes, we are definitely more than anything else talking about human rights, right. so even patients like the new york times now i was talking about human rights being at the center of the conflict, violation of palestinian human rights at the front of the complex. so context, context, context, and context here is clear to everyone, 50 plus years of occupation, 70 plus years of this procession, and so,
4:16 pm
so forth. you and i talked about this many times. what is interesting, this time around, as you said, is the fact that the international for me to opinion is standing around is shifting spending a corner in a major way, some in a way that we haven't seen that i haven't seen before in my career. that there is a sense, the national public opinion, that is what i cannot continue to violate about assuming human rights with impunity . and hence, i would say the court of public opinion has already made its mind on just very particular issue in history, particular around the restoration that goes to no matter what is being said about this. and the part the in the sense that there is a long, long history of violations on escalation of occupation from legal acts, of course, including incarceration, imprisoning and besieging the gaza strip. all of that now is, is out there in the open. people know that 85 plus percent of gaza strip already in
4:17 pm
fact refugees, it's a one big prism of refugees. all of these facts now are becoming more more available and hence this as p r campaign is not working this time out on. in fact, it is, it sounds they are actually admitting that they are now one nice thing back to the 1st sign that the b, r is not working, but in fact, some of it is, is backfiring that there isn't at the national public opinion here. now i would just add the holland in as far as you and how much council and the public opinion, because we didn't receive the national public opinion for a lot of us really. it means the west because the developing world has more or less made this mind, including in the one council and also russia, china, and so, so forth. have made up their mind about the issue about your patient and the your not to face. of course, as we all know is back in his arm. it's about you, europe, is it because it's and we have on the one hand island that's taking your stand
4:18 pm
totally against our part paid. and we have something like hungary that is taking nathan. yeah, hose position and in between there is that has been some defense of nathan. yeah, i was claim of defense, but the public opinion in europe is also shifting as also changing. and if there's more and more pressure on governments in europe to be a bit more effective in restraining israel. and i think at the humorous counsellor we're going to see, we're going to look for how france and others vote. because as i said, this is going to be a test for some of these european countries who claim to have universal values. what is all about double standards or whether they're actually the biggest fan on the human rights? my mission in my one thanks very much my. one of the joining us live from rome. thousands of people are leaving the eastern city of goma in the democratic republic of congo. after warnings of volcano could erupt for a 2nd time mount gone,
4:19 pm
go erupted on saturday, sending rivers of lava flowing towards the city, and destroyed hundreds of homes along the way. dozens of people were killed and many are still missing. or my cancer is following developments. for us from, as in bob way, she joins us from a, rory, harry, how many people are on the move to we think well, keep, keep saying 1000 people on the move. they've all get a posho evacuation of gomez city that's looking at about pin neighborhoods in the city earlier in the day. people try to leave by boat for they've been told by authorities that no longer said. so one is trying to leave it right now is trying to do so by road day is headache. tell us in some areas invited thought the telling parents with small children just for safety reasons, right? on a piece of paper, your name, and you'll find that. but that if your children are separated me, then maybe someone could find the number in their pockets and call you that gets
4:20 pm
lost. families are leaving, being told to pack as much as possible in case it takes them a while to come back home. so right now the focus now is trying to get people out of the city, those the one to leave by road at the moment officially trying to avoid what happened in 2002 when the volcano erupted and they were criticized by then for taking too long to react and that who the people died this time around, the criticism seems to be that they are telling people to leave the city. but the doesn't seem to be a plan of where exactly people should go when they get to so called says areas. what's going to happen to them where they're going to stay, what they're going to eat? for example, we told many people are trying to get to the border with the one that now this is a part of the country that seem a lot of disturbances over the years. you have this great the volcano, and then you have a lot of security insecurity as well over night in baby not too far from way go may
4:21 pm
is, for example, from the groups. melissa will the adf tap paper villages in the area. we told the band came in, they killed people using knives, and they said they kidnapped some women and children of authority in that part of the country trying to look off the people who being displaced by the insecurity as well as people in goal. my now who was trying to hit the safety in case this volcano area, thanks very much and i'm attached to their joining us live from her ari in zimbabwe . let's take another live update on another continuing story. molly's transitional leaders have been released as being removed by the country's vice president, as, according to local military kernel, asked amy goiter, one of the military officers who led the crew of last year arrested the prime minister and precedent. on monday, the un security council used an emergency meeting to call for their immediate release. they were held in a military base and the tunnel carty, one of gators representative, says they have resigned from their positions live now to pamlico,
4:22 pm
and out to zeros nicholas hart. hi there, nick, who's in charge now will. if there is any shadow or doubt who is in charge of molly? well, that's been lifted and you build a temp of calling this. a civilian lead. government of transition is gone. the strong man on the streets of molly. i know this country is no other than colonel as see me going. the leader of the military. who overtook power from every move our car, kate. last august, last august. the special forces are colonel who is now in charge of the country and despite widespread condemnation, peter from the international community and threats of sanction. well, he continues to be the man that is not only in charge of molly, but the man that controlled part of the government here he calls himself the head
4:23 pm
of the transition. now, for the president of molly and the prime minister that were held in the cap of catch you, well, they've been released late early, sorry. on thursday morning this morning, around 1 o'clock in the morning and the chief negotiator, peter, good luck, jonathan, left by marco. this morning, furious furious because despite his attempt to free the prime minister the president earlier during the week while he was refused, the ability to when i see me go die, he went to the cap of ca, teeth, and then he was told to return back and then when he met with the president and the prime minister, he was told by them that they were forced to resign just 10 minutes before the meeting. now he went back to us in the going, asking for the immediate relief of the prime minister and the president. and the response of us can be going up is in due course really showing that he is in charge of the situation of prison. if you have not cold calls this occurred within a qu,
4:24 pm
they are threats of sanctions. i mean, the african union could remove molly from the union, but that's unlikely to happen. there's also the european union who could put targeted sanctions against the military judge themselves and echo off the west african bodied. it'll be the, it's already meeting of the heads of state, of west africa in, in the days to come to try to figure out what to do with the situation of molly. because the reason why the military are able to do all this is because they have the support of these 14000 un peacekeeping force, the biggest and the most expensive peacekeeping force in the us history. after that, the $4000.00 french troops and the new to cuba, european special forces troops that are on the ground, that prevent arm groups to come next to the, to the capitol by my go. so there's, there's an element of anger amongst diplomats here. that's all of these efforts
4:25 pm
made by the international community to allow the government of transition to move to civilian rules. well, it has been wasted now, the pressure on the pressures on as you me going to try to organize election as quickly as possible. he said he'll do so before february 2022. peter nick, thanks very much. nicholas on joining us from bama co, low smoker, and still to cover for you here on the 13 g and use our including warnings with thailand. prisons are becoming a hotbed. spread curve at 19 plus in sports will lightning strike twice, but can they take a huge towards winning another championship? for me, president joe biden has ordered us intelligence agencies to investigate the origins of corona virus. he's expecting them to report back in 3 months. mr. biden says the
4:26 pm
intelligence community is divided on whether the virus image naturally or whether it escaped from a lab in one hand. catcher, lopez for the young explains with more than 50 percent of us adults now vaccinated. president joe biden is turning his focus to the origins of covered 19th . he's given his team 90 days to investigate how and where the virus 1st emerged. perhaps most controversially, the report will look at whether the virus was leaked from this chinese lab in walk on china. i needed to provide more access to the lab corporate more fully with the scientific investigators. and we don't think that they have met that standard once dismissed as a conspiracy theory. now leading sciences say the possibility of the lab leak should not be ignored. we're hearing about people who work at the institute of i
4:27 pm
ology, becoming sick with an illness. we know that this has been spreading since november . we've seen the chinese government been very reticent to allow pressed to investigate the origins of this virus. we know the wall street journal reporters have been detained by police. we know the b, b. c has been chased out of certain areas where people are looking for the origin. so i think that raises question back in march, a joint investigation by china and the world health organization concluded the probable source of the virus was animal to human transmission from a work market, an accidental lamp leak. it said was highly unlikely noted, but many governments have criticize the reports, credibility, they say access was limited, and the chinese government with health data. they argue china, the parent influence on the w h. o has tainted the reports. validity, china denies the virus league from one of its lamps, saying its critics are playing politics. may was singular,
4:28 pm
with 33000000 confirmed cases and about 600000 deaths from cover 19 in the u. s. which are the highest numbers in the world. the u. s isn't reflecting on its own problems, but rather attempting to make a scapegoat out of china. my question is, what are they up to 5, can they sleep at night with an untroubled conscience divided administration says, knowing the origins of covered 19 is a matter of global health. a way to stop another pandemic in the future. but the report could have far reaching consequences that go beyond the health sector. capielo visit again al jazeera. ok, let's bring in son j. s, and i come, he's an associate professor of infectious diseases at the australian national university. he joins us from cambra professor, welcome back. good to have you on the news. our again. so can i just ask you briefly put your cards on the table? do you think corona virus is synthetic? i manmade. or do you believe it's just a natural evolution of an effect?
4:29 pm
i guess the flu virus. this is come up through the ecology of the virus commute, the virus world if you will. chuck. now peter, i can't be a 100 percent. sure. but there is a lot of evidence supporting a natural cause of the pandemic. so we've had about 40 new infections appear in the world since the 19 seventy's, the majority of them have been transferred from animals to humans. we've had 7 corona viruses including sa, coby 2 that have infected human, and they've all come from the animal world. and bass are responsible for lots of these new infections that emerge. so i think it is very plausible that a infection koby to this buyer has come from back. there's been an intermediate house that's impacted humans cannot completely rule out a lab accident or
4:30 pm
a lab incident. that's also very hard to do. but then, as i said, there's certainly a lot of support for the, for my argument. what will mister biden's 90 day investigation provide the world with given that we have had the world health organization only really able to get so far because the chinese authorities, they didn't obfuscate but they were kind of slow off the mark. i think that'd be a fair way to describe their reaction when the world health organization people try to get into yes, i think certainly at the start of this outbreak, going back to like 2019 only 2020. there was a slow response, but this world health organization report that was compiled by a number of investigators who came from overseas that they were 10 experts from overseas. there were 17 chinese expert. the australian expert has written that he
4:31 pm
felt that they got good cooperation made and got to be the institute of biology and felt that they got good come and open communication from those involved . now of course, it's possible that wasn't the case, but that's what they are saying. but as you have in other countries, don't believe that is the case. so they're going to keep looking and from an infectious diseases point of view, i think it is important to find out the cause. because the next 10 demik. yes, it was a 100 years between this pandemic in the last one. but the next image could be one or 2 years away. is that the key thing here for the bite ministration given what cove it corona virus has done just to the united states, an american president has got to try to or, or be seen to be trying to come up with a definitive answer. because if it is synthetic, you're saying in effect, it's very, very probably not. if it's synthetic,
4:32 pm
if it's man made that in effect makes it a chemical weapon, doesn't it? or it makes it something that can be weaponized and used as if it's a chemical weapon. it would be a lot easier for everyone around the world if it's, if it is naturally occurring. because then, when it's not cobit 192 or 3 years from now, if you are not on this channel, having a conversation about cobit 25, we will know, hopefully it is naturally occurring and that will color and taint and manipulate by implication, how the world reacts to that look, absolutely. and by terrorism, which is the issue just right is something that has been about, even in a few 100 years ago, people have been weaponized being naturally occurring viruses in war. certainly we've seen it in, in north america a couple of 100 years ago. so it is something we definitely have to worry about.
4:33 pm
and as we were saying at the start, we haven't definitively proved one theory or the other. but certainly there is a lot going for the theory that this occurred naturally. professor, thank you so much for joining us with clarity on this story, which of course we will follow over the coming months here on the news professor, son julia. some of the i cut, they're joining us from australia. becky, the philippines has one of the worst covered 19 infection rates in the southeast of asia, but many people are wary of getting vaccinated not trust. in the different injections the jobs varies widely depending upon the brand, the government wants to speed up the slow vaccine rollout. so it's implementing a new policy to help counteract this hesitancy jamila calling dugan reports for us . now from manila, dr. jennifer lou de guzman heads. what are the major cove in 1900 vaccine hub in the city of the gate?
4:34 pm
she takes us through the process for vaccinating people per month. her team has prepared for the arrival of vaccines building this field hospital, where volunteers are also trained and vaccines stored. there is another challenge. they see that it's harder to fight the more sinister via rules. i think this time, the social media, this information. that's why we really thought them that local life in vaccine brand is superior from the odd there. with that we are poor again and not on any adverse events. following him and his age on in 2017 president through the good at their do, ordered the investigation into his predecessor, the former president, quino and members of its cabinets were involved in introducing baksha. a vaccine that helped prevent dan give fever, health experts say a series of public hearings against the jug contributed to what they call vaccine
4:35 pm
hesitancy, people delaying or refusing to accept vaccines. despite their availability, according to a survey by a local research company octo only 19 percent of people in the philippines are willing to be vaccinated. just in vaccines from the us, the highest at 41 percent. while for jobs from china, it's the lowest at 13 percent on that course, the government to implement its so called brand ignacio policy at the schools or in the vaccination site. in another part of the capital, manila, people have been lining up since for a m. organizers here tell us that, sir, now it says almost doubled since they soft announcing and advance the brand of vaccines that will be given. these will only be disclosed on site just before inoculation. i don't think it's important for us to know what brand and you're
4:36 pm
going to give us. as long as the 1st of acid available is very important for us to be taken care of as a 1st line of defense. many of the government so called branded gnostic policy will help turn around the country's national immunization rollout that's already seen as one of this lowest in south asia. jamaila. linda, again, just 0 manila was thailand struggles to contain this the strongest wave of covered 19 it's crowded. prisons have become inundated with cases half of all the new infections are inside the prison system. human rights groups are alarmed and they're wanting that the authorities aren't acting quickly enough to control the situation. scott jaila reports from the capital bank hawk pro reform protests later upon i say, ya, city, g r watson, a cool known as ron, was held in bangkok, prison for 2 months denied bail 6 times before she was released earlier this month . like thousands of inmates anti prison, she tested positive recovery 19,
4:37 pm
but i baggy comedy all the guards tried to hide the news about the outbreak so the inmates wouldn't panic. but by not telling the truth, the inmates weren't careful enough because they thought everything was fine. even the guards kept saying no one was infected. she was put in hospital care when she tested positive a few days after she was granted bail. but her entire family became infected. public attention of her case and several other protesters also in prison, prompted broader testing, exposing just how bad the situation had gotten. the tied justice minister recently took to bangkok prison hospital visiting the cobra, 1900 ward, the ty corrections department admitted that over crowding puts limits on hygiene and disease control. last year, a group of human rights organizations sent a letter to authority saying prison over crowding is a corona virus ticking time by. one group now sees that not only was the warning
4:38 pm
ignored, but political maneuvering made the outbreak in presence. even worse. it has led to a situation which is totally preventable. but now thailand have super cluster in major prisons in bangkok, an ad for when said their numbers of infection have been increasing by our chronic, overcrowded, has been an issue for years. repeated promises of judicial reform have been sidelined according to one former attorney general. more than 80 percent of the $300000.00 prisoners are in on drug charges in the capacity of all the prison. it's supposed to be a 3rd of that at 110000. the justice department is considering early parole as a way to stem the rapidly spreading virus. it denied our request for an interview as did the health ministry. like prisons all across thailand and not the very prison here has a rapidly growing cluster. over 80 percent of the incarcerated population has
4:39 pm
