9:01 pm
tens of thousands of people escape go ma, in fear of another volcanic eruption. the severity of abuse is among the absolute worst. i am nearly 2 decades of humanitarian work. strong testimony to us senate hearing on the conflict in ethiopia, the gray region, all sides accused of atrocities. and the french president asked for a wonders forgiveness countries role in the $994.00 genocide. i'm devin ash, with sport off the japan doctor's union, predicts a grim outcome for the tokyo olympics. and in football is that it is it and walks away ra, madrid for the 2nd time. ah, the top you and human rights body is voted to launch an international investigation into violations during the 11 day conflict in garza. and the abuses in occupied
9:02 pm
palestinian territories as well as inside israel. israel has rejected the resolution and says it will not cooperate in while ice in garza has welcome the decision. the un human rights chief michel bachelor, had earlier said israel's as strikes and densely populated areas of gaza could amount to war. crimes is found to be in this case, to be this proportion. and what's the impact 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 populated areas or 2 lounge attacks from however, the actions of one party do not show the other from its obligations on the international. the u. s. has responded to the saying it deeply regrets the
9:03 pm
un decision adding that it threatens to imperil recent progress made in the region . it comes just a day off the secretary of state anthony blanket, wrapped up his middle east tool and strengthening a c 5 between israel and hamas. we've got our white house correspondent, kimberly how could standing by with us reaction. but 1st, let's take you to the united nations headquarters in kristin salumi, so christ. and let's start with that vote to tell us how it came together in the human rights council. well, this was a meeting on possible war crimes. in the most recent conflict in israel, palestine, and it was called by the organization of the cooperation as well as representatives from the palestinian delegation to the united nations. which of course represents the the palestinian authority, not hamas. although hamas has welcomed this decision. what we had here was
9:04 pm
a vote of 24 states in favor, 9 against, with 14 abstentions, calling for further investigation into what happened that after the high commissioner for human rights, michelle boshoway, as you just said, said that there is a possibility of war crimes on the part of israel for indiscriminate or attacks into the area. she did say that there was also evidence that hamas had blatantly violated international law by firing indiscriminately to israel. israel of course suffer 10 casualties. 2 of them children and they gaza side. there's been $248.00 casualties, including $66.00 children and israel has fed that they will not cooperate with this investigation that they were acting in self defense against the terrorist organization. this is the 9th session of the human rights council on the
9:05 pm
situation and gaza in the last 10 years, and they considered the body to be biased against them. but michel boshoway said that they at this point need to see more evidence in order to make a clear conclusion. whether or not israel was using all precautions when it fired into gaza, because it would be a work crime also for hamas to be hiding behind civilians. are storing weapons behind civilians. it had to know what evidence israel had when it targeted certain buildings, given the high level of casualties and the infrastructure damage. that was the stain there, what evidence they were acting on. and she says that they have yet to see any of that evidence to be at 4 schools that were damaged or media facilities like the one that was home to al jazeera in the region. so this investigation will go on, but it appears without the cooperation of israel. i thanks so much kristen salumi
9:06 pm
there. now let's take a look at these really reaction is what the can't take. a prime minister benjamin netanyahu is just tweeted, he's saying once again and immoral. automatic majority at the council whitewash is a genocidal terrorist organization that deliberately targets his ready civilians while turning garza civilians into human shields. council whitewash is a genocidal terrorist organization where he's putting it well that these ready reaction has find out what its allies the u. s. has been saying with, kimberly, how can i don't just now life from the white house? how is the abiding ministrations ration going down in washington? dc, especially given in light of the campaign promises which the biden administration made about restoring human rights to american foreign policy. not just the campaign promises, but the very 1st major speech that the secretary of state anthony blank and made
9:07 pm
said that the foundation of u. s. foreign policy would be upholding and being a leader with respect to human rights. so it is notable, but there is pushed back in the united states now with respect to investigating whether or not there were human rights violations, whether or not there were crimes committed with respect to israel. and the way their military campaign was conducted in gaza. most recently, i can tell you that the largest israeli lobby group in the united states, known as a pack, has also taken to twitter to respond to the decision and saying that this is outrageous, the demonizes israel. and what they're saying is that essentially the united nations is citing with terrorists over those who are being terrorized. and they accuse the palestinian president my foot abbas to vilify israel over negotiating with peace, our negotiating for peace. i think what this really reflects in what we're seeing
9:08 pm
as the international level is much like what we've seen at the domestic level here in the united states in recent weeks. and that is that the landscape is shifting with respect to israel. well, there has always been the default setting in the u. s. congress, especially the israel has a right to defend itself. and this is certainly what we heard from joe biden repeatedly, the question has become and where the issue is for many, is how israel defense itself. and that's where there are concerns, whether it be the disproportionate heavy toll that was taken on gaza and not on israeli citizens. basically, this is a violation the critics of bite and policy of human law. and also the question becomes why the united states is not used as massive financial aid for israel, which again is disproportionate for one side over the other. why it's not using that leverage in order to stop the carnage that we saw. oh. 8 play over a series of 11 day. so these are some of the questions and the reality of the
9:09 pm
united states is finding itself in not only is joe by the policy becoming increasingly popular here in the united states. but the united states is fighting this policy and finding themselves isolated internationally. so what the question becomes then is this sort of one sided rationale that for so long has been accepted by the world community that israel has right to defend itself. now was no longer being accepted. all right, thanks so much. kimberly how can then you will say it has more than situation in garza now. the people of god, yet for sure, have been calling out for the international community to hold israel accountable for the crime that he has committed. he read because the strip in, in considering the targeting of billions and densely populated area and residential buildings. and also in common gratian ceremony that was just held
9:10 pm
here at this same location for journalists with incorporation with human rights centers. because i'll be national community to hold also israel accountable for targeting the media voices and media offices. and because this trip, so basically what the people are demanding is that israel is held accountable for its crimes against civilians in because the strip and for the located that it has been imposing for more than 14 years now on because this trip. so basically, the people want the international community to take action and not just condemn israeli crimes. colon 2 with this civilians and towards the gaza strip. 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 mountaineer gone,
9:11 pm
go, blew on, blew up on saturday, sending rivers of lava flowing towards the city. it destroyed hundreds of homes along the way. the dozens of people were killed. many a still missing. so before they had the latest, less than a week after mountaineer ogle, one of the world's most active volcanoes, killed dozens and destroyed entire villages. the government has ordered a mass evacuation of goma city in the eastern part of the democratic republic of congo. fearing a 2nd direction, the population of an entire city seems to be on the move. i'm fleeing the volcano, i'm going to try to do because i have no choice. the governor told us to evacuate the town. lava flows have already killed dozens of people and caused widespread destruction. the governor of north cuba province ordered a mandatory evacuation after seismic data showed magma rising beneath belda city. a
9:12 pm
sign and other erupt could happen at any time. we're taking our belongings, the governor told us on the radio that we have to evacuate and leave go. we don't have an exact destination. hundreds of earthquakes that followed the 1st erupt and leveled buildings across the city. continuing tremors, leaving open cracks in the earth. i'm going to a galley as a situation seems to be uncertain in coma, the volcano may erupt again and were scared. we were told by the authorities last night that we had to leave with our families. many of gomez residents have abandoned any effort to salvage their lives from the charred landscape. the thread of another volcanic eruption added to the already swelling numbers of displaced people. now, the only priority is to out run the lava the bas rubbing 0. on joining us from goma is our boot head of the office for the united nations
9:13 pm
organisation stabilization mission in the democratic republic of congo, or will not go as it's no good to have you with us. so i know that your mission includes as well dealing with this situation with a volcano, in addition to peacekeeping operations. so perhaps you can tell us, where are all these people heading to? are there any facilities set it set up to receive and how's and look after these people are just running away from goma. thank you very much for having me. and did that population that has moved since the early hours of this morning? they've been moving to, to direction some of that, went to the border. the crossing through one to the others are, which is the majority of them have moved west towards an area called 2nd. most of these people actually tend to stay with host families, friends, and relatives. but at the same time, united nation agencies have deployed to provide them with support, including food,
9:14 pm
shelter, and water. and i understand you monitoring the volcano using drones and other things. does that, do we have any idea how long this volcano volcano might be in the state of heightened activity and how long people might need to stay out of their homes? indeed, it since the 1st erupt that happened on saturday, we've been launching reconnaissance flights. this using with helicopters and drones, as you speak tonight, to have a doing that is going to hover over the city of gamma, going in baffling, back and forth between goma and kendall to monitor the criminal and its activities . but also to make sure the ensure the safety and security of the population and the city itself. now as part of our monitoring, we have to look into the kid into the crater and to check on the level leak. and this is one of the most dangerous and most active volcanoes in the world,
9:15 pm
and there's a lag level leak. that's been there for a long time. as part of our monitoring using our drones and helicopters, we look and to check on the level of the level and how active the level is. based on that we can determine a little bit over. it is very difficult to estimate or predict the activities of both kin was not based on that. we can determine if there could be any outflow or flavor in the, in the near future in the next hours. well, you all, anyone doing that before saturdays rupture because when you listen to stories of people who had to flee on saturday, you know, people suddenly running away from markets. 150 children being suddenly separated from families. you have to wonder if there was perhaps a failure to warn and monitor and tell people and organize people. what you have to remember this is actually one of the fastest level in the world. last time there was interruption was 2002 and took half an hour for the lab to
9:16 pm
reach the city to burn large areas of the city. so one, it's very limited time for reaction. at the same time, as i said, the last time it, it, it erupt, it was more than 10 years ago, which means it is not very regular that it's erupt. however, once does, it's actually causes a severe damage. now there are sensors on the, on the look into itself. we are monitoring it with our scientists with the company scientists. but again, it is very difficult to predict the eruption, and when it happens, it's happened so quickly. all right, thank you very much. i'm going to boot oh plenty more ahead on this new zone, including molly's tree releases detained, civilian leaders, but the army is still in charge. i didn't support naomi or soccer places a self imposed ban on price conferences to the upcoming french open.
9:17 pm
ah, that's return to our top story now, and the top us human rights body is voted to launch in international investigation into violations during the 11 day conflict in garza and the abuses unoccupied palestinian territories as well as inside israel. out of the insane is a professor of international law at queen's university, joins us live by zoom from our to a good to have you with us. will any findings, how effective will this investigation be basically me, will any findings actually be enforced? we've been down this route before we've had investigations and then not usually ever enforce because they're not binding on any one and you raise your is a very important point. that's one of the limitations of the human rights council
9:18 pm
and the work that they do. many commissions of inquiry have been mandated by the human rights council and they serve a very important purpose. notwithstanding their limitations on being able to find member states and, and give some tea to their recommendation. and that important for purposes to serve as a point of documentation. the investigation in this case, as with all the others designed to examine and report back to the human rights council on whether or not violations of international humanitarian law and human rights law have been committed and by whom and in that respect held for record what actually has happened that information is valuable to others who may use it to bring violators to book if you like, which can include in this particular case, the office of the prosecutor at the international criminal court. it might also
9:19 pm
include domestic courts of various 3rd states who end up launching proceedings in their own courts in respect to the vents that are taking place and occupied. okay, but i don't want to leave your viewers, right. let me jump in here and tell you from israel's perspective, this is what the israeli can't take a prime minister. tweets it out. he's saying the council is simply white washing hamas, his actions. this isn't a real investigation from your understanding. will the investigation not be looking at houses, firing of rockets onto israeli cities as well? yes, i'm not actually seeing the resolution of the human rights council and yes, but knowing what i do about about what i've read in the press so far and of the practice of the nice counsel in such things is that the, the in the body will be investigating not only actions of these really side, but also actions of the palestinian side. so i'm very skeptical about the about the
9:20 pm
prospect that this would be a whitewash smoke that is not the historical work record of the human rights council or the commission of inquiry. they're typically very, very judicious and careful with, with how they pronounce in an equal way. if you like the facts, drive it how, what israel says you were talking about how it's still might be useful because it might get some information the others can use with israel. is saying that human rights council has what it's calling a built in bias against is round. therefore, you know it's decisions. it's finding the more politically motivated than justice and facts motivated. yeah, this is a, this is a position of these are the government that goes back for years and their position . the reason for that position is symbol they're being judged by their actions on the ground in occupied palace. find by others feet and not alone. palestinian or groups are being judged as well if you like,
9:21 pm
by these other states. the fact of the matter is empirically speaking israel as an occupying power in occupied palestine for the past. 54 years is responsible for a far greater amount. empirically speaking of violations of international human rights, humanitarian law than any other actor, certainly on the me inside. and so it's a pavlovian response of the israeli government that they will blame the messenger in this case the human rights council for, for investigating them instead, frankly of, of responding to, to, on the merits the violations that they've undertaken. so for instance, the settlement, the position of a regime of apartheid and racial segregation. and of course, the violation by the occupying power of the past mean people's right to exercise self determination. occupation is meant to be a temporary condition. and you know, this one is lasted for 54 years. that's the substance of the problem that any human
9:22 pm
rights council commission of inquiry is going to end up looking at possibly looked at. and of course, the government of israel doesn't want to be looked at. and so they're going to claim that there is a bias. well, it just doesn't hold water in my view, how much of an investigation can even take place if it's already said, hey, we're not going to cooperate with this investigation. we'll, we'll un investigated even be able to get on the ground and go into garza. yeah, it'll be, it'll be difficult though not impossible. we live in an age where evidence can be shared. testimonies can be given electronically. and. and the commission of inquiry that is, that are working out of the human rights council on syria and a number of other places i serve. for instance, on the commission of inquiry. these things are done through the use of technology as well as people on the ground. so it's not impossible. keep in mind the
9:23 pm
commission of inquiry will, will not be working on a standard of evidence. that is a criminal standard beyond a reasonable doubt, quite the opposite. they'll be working on a lower evidence re threshold of whether or not there are reasonable grounds to believe that certain actions may amounts to a war crime or crime against humanity. and so we shouldn't over speed the importance of the commission of inquiry. but at the same time, we must always be aware in this particular case that impunity is endemic in occupied palestine. the occupying power has run a mark and for decades. and so every bit of opportunity that the international community has to document violation with them with a view of all parties with a view to accountability can only help can only help bring peace to the region. all right, thank you for your analysis of that out of the unsafe thank you. now washington's relationship with e. c. o p,
9:24 pm
it's most important ally. the horn of africa is on the strain. it's now under the spotlight on capitol hill. the senate foreign relations committee held a hearing on the conflict into gray and america's response assistant secretary of state for african affairs and the usa official gave their testimonies in western te gray security forces belonging to be har, regional government, or forcing ethnic grey and from their homes and what secretary blinking is described as actually ethnic cleansing. the trans defense forces undertaking a campaign of unremitting violence and destruction that amounts to the collective punishment. the people of t grey, the violence abuses and atrocities are unacceptable. they must stop now. we've also her devastating reports of abuse by arm doctors across p gray. the reports not only speak to widespread incidence of rape and other gender based violent, systematic attempts to dismantle society and destroy families. some perpetrators
9:25 pm
are targeting the wives of priest, abusing women in front of their families, or using a level of violence, so brutal that women are left with organ damage. the severity of abuse is among the absolute worst i've seen in nearly 2 decades of humanitarian work. alan fisher is live for us on capitol hill. allan, unlike the by that ministrations position on an investigation into gaza when it comes to appear. it is calling for an international investigation. it is calling for accountability. those about some of the strong warnings coming out of the us senate. we've heard today of what the u. s. might do if those demands are not mat well centers hearing and betty start terms, a situation report from what is happening and t great. we were told that thousands of people having killed thousands of people been injured, and benny betty stark warming from us aid saying, look, there is the possibility that ethiopia could fall into famine for the 1st time in
9:26 pm
more than 40 years. the reality is that while the fighting is going on, people aren't able to plant crops, they're not able to take the fields, and that will have a knock on effect later in the year. that is why the biden administration is pushing for a c spar. we had from joe biden, just in the last 24 hour thing. now is the time the senate has unanimously called for if you open troops to pull out of tikrit, anthony blink and has described what is happening, they're almost like ethnic cleansing. so what can the us do? well, of course of impose some sanctions, mainly travel sanctions and some people involved with the government. but they're hoping that the pressure of open forums like this and also sending the envoy to the horn of africa back to the region next week. well, force the ethiopians to take some of the criticism from the united states. seriously. they are hoping that these harsh ones here or reflect a change on the ground in the coming weeks if there is. and then we've had from
9:27 pm
what is going to happen with this and, and certainly from the administration. they are considering further sanctions. they are also going to make sure that there is a transparent inquiry so that those responsible for war crimes are held accountable . now is the us ready to declare war crimes in ethiopia? not at the moment. they see there is a process that is ongoing and they will make that decision very soon. that decision will be left to the hands of secretary of state antony blinking. but yet again, that is another stick hanging over the ethiopian saying, look, if you don't come to a cease fire, this could happen very quickly indeed. and as i say, there will be economic sanctions as well. the u. s. is worried about instability, not just the famine, but instability to the believe it can lead to economic instability in the horn of africa. but also could allow groups that they would designate as terrorist groups to get a foothold in the area. and that the sea is against us, interests now has been a very close ally of the united states,
9:28 pm
particularly over the past 5 or 10 years. this is a clear warning that the u. s. is beginning to get frustrated. and if things don't change and change soon, then the u. s. has many options. and there is widespread acceptance here on capitol hill that they will use those tools. this is a party political issue. this has got real support from both the republicans and the democrats, and the want to see the bite administration taking action. and that with alan fischer on capitol hill. david chin is a former us ambassador suite c o. p a. he joins us live via skype from washington, d. c. good to have you with us. so these allegations of atrocities, war crimes being committed in the great region that been going on for a while. why is washington taken a strong response and stands now? washington has been taking a pretty strong response for the last several months. it's true. they have wrapped
9:29 pm
up the pressure within the last couple of weeks, but this is an ongoing process. one of the reasons is that there is just then know and to these are human rights violations and are cross days caused by different sides to the complex. this is not all coming from one side, but washing and see if this going on wants to have a stop to it. so it's stepped up. the pressure is probably unlikely that ethiopia is going to comply with us, demands for an immediate cease fire, as well as the expulsion of our trained troops, an international investigation, accountability for those implicated and war crimes, and so on and so forth. the does this mean the u. s. c. c o p relations really are at a turning point and on a trajectory for further deterioration? well, they certainly could be, i think you're correct. action by the united states alone is probably not enough
9:30 pm
to achieve what united states would like to see change, particularly and, and t vary region. it's going to require a lot of other players stepping out, particularly the union and other elements of the united nations. and also certain players interject themselves in or negative kind of way or in a way to slow any kind of progress on achieving the humanitarian requirements are needed and he's very region, but i think this pressure will be ratcheted up on the other players. and you may very well see your dns and others citing with united states on those. all right, thank you so much for your thoughts and analysis. david chin there will
9:31 pm
still ahead of now develop we check how to unique projects in berlin. i mean to bring multiple faiths under one roof and the stern warning from the japan dog says union. it's the tokyo olympics. go ahead. that's coming up in school. ah. hello there. the heat continues for much of the middle east, though temperatures across the gulf states will dipped slightly. we've got a shall wind blowing in, kicking up the dust and bringing a lot of hazy sunshine to could tar pots of saudi arabia and the u. a. e. but as we go into saturday, those temperatures picking up, we don't see tempt us as high in musket. we were high up in the forty's, but they lowered down to the early forty's. by the time we get into saturdays
9:32 pm
looking, clear and hot as well across the event temperatures here in iraq, edging up, 46 in baghdad. for the wet weather, we have to go to turkey in the northern areas. there is also some weather across the open rift valley as we go to the horn of africa. but centrally across the tropics, pretty clear picture for this time of year. not as many storm clouds as we expect to see for the stormy weather. we have to go to the gulf of guinea, but things are cooling slightly in kenya, 24 degrees in nairobi. and as we head to southern africa, things are looking rather warm and dry fine weather full botswana, zimbabwe and south africa, 21 in johannesburg. and they'll be rain for cape town on the weekend. the be part of the debate itself defeated the end posing in the us or in the u. k. because
9:33 pm
it will just come back again when no topic is off the table. what we wanted to talk about were these men white man, touching aloud your dream, where at global audience becomes a global community, jumping to the comment section. and part of the discussion there are like the metric efforts to silence fell opinions on the online faith on al jazeera wonder. the filipino work is a big boy should buy landlord to make them pay norman prices to lead overcrowded b 118. make the victim exposes the b one l just 0. i al jazeera which is a little ah
9:34 pm
the ah, come back here watching al jazeera time to recap, headlines the you and human rights council voted launch and international investigation into violations during the 11th day conflict between israel and hamas . human rights chief michelle bachelor, said israel's air strikes and densely populated areas of garza could amount to war crimes. the us has condemned rights abuses in ethiopia, ti gray region and is calling for an immediate end to the conflict. the senate foreign relates committee held hearing in the us, capital, thousands, vito pins have died and 7 months of fighting while millions that been displaced. democratic republic of congo, tens of thousands of people are trying to escape the city of go off the warnings.
9:35 pm
volcano may erupt again. thousands of people were killed. many still missing french president emanuel my call has asked for forgiveness for his country's role in the 9941 than genocide. it happened during microns 1st visit took regardless president the french li to stop short of a formal apology. ties between the 2 nations have long been strained after accusations, france was complicit in the killings. france had back. president polk armies rivals in the previous government during the civil war. i know i'm to know. so and putting myself with humility and respect on your side today. i am recognizing our responsibilities in gang involved since 1990 and 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
9:36 pm
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 a genocidal regime in a historic sign of reconciliation. rwanda's president for ga me, praised microns speech at the moral for victims of the genocide. 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 malcolm. why was that that ceremony in the capital kigali, he explains how the 2 countries got to this moment. it certainly follows
9:37 pm
number events of lead up to this. i mean, it was 11 years ago and president sol cosy, came here, but didn't say anything nearly as didn't acknowledge nearly as much of a role as, as mac con has just now focused on me, visited paris twice since mccolan came to power 2 years ago. things have been steadily storing and in both governments. rwanda and france, commissioned report in the last year or 2 that were both published earlier this year into france's role in the genocide. and now both of those reports kind of pretty much what has been the r p f line all along is that france was to some degree responsible or even complex. it's depending on, on who you are. now with these 2 reports certainly shouldn't be seen as anything that's in any way independent. they're written by 2 players that were very much active in this conflict in the early 92 ninety's and genocide in 1994 here in
9:38 pm
rwanda. so they should definitely be taken more of a measure of the political sentiment between these 2 governments at this time. but the, the outcome of those reports was one very much showing france is moving over to the government verandas. narrative on the events of that time. phonology or are, is chief, a foreign correspondent for less ego. he joins us now from bay. we're good to have you with us. is this the historic reconciliation and the end of this issue between rwanda and france? it seems that it is the reconciliation because we have to remember that at a time in history about me was the military leader of the f one. but the one day that was coming from gone gone
9:39 pm
where the family of me where refugees from the 1960 you know, during the belgium rule because there were problems between the 2 and the 2 c like the times and he was leaning rebel movement trained to the wrong guy with the support of the president of gone down and fraud was called at the time in 1990, to protect the dual regime in kigali of prison. my now and so the french forces were sent to the wrong got, i'm actually beated guy, me forces on the grown. but then so then there was a cooperation between france and the 2 regime of the army of prison men
9:40 pm
out. but then in 9, in 1993 bronze had for an agreement obese agreement that existed at the agreement of august 93. and then the french soldiers left. the problem is that in april 94, so almost 20 years after the plane of prison might be removed, i was shot down some say by a beer by the people from give me some say by others we don't know. it's a clear actually and but it's possible that it's done by the be able to get me to one and the reaction of the due regime and the to me what to commit to jana side, to seen minority. right. right. and, well, thank you. so i will remind the running through that history,
9:41 pm
but i mean, since you were, you were there, i think you were covering the genocide when it happened. you was to get in during the generals that you may often do you think the amount of my con, should have gone further? not an awful forgiveness. do you think he should have offered enough? no, i don't think that menu should have, should have gone to mo, far because the story truth. i mean, emanuel mac cole looked for the truth and the story. the truth is that when the generated was committed, there were no french soldiers in the entirety of the run that they had left. but the problem is that phones had intervene or interfered in a country that was not a former colonial france. was a former colony of belgian and maybe france into a in
9:42 pm
a do complicated story and dosier and file that it could handle. and, and the problem also is that fraud made some military cooperation that with a not me that later after france left committed genocide. so it's, it's of course, a big problem from all french aeration, which was not very fruitful. but it does not make frowns a right place of the general guy. ok, thank you very much for your thoughts on that. i know you are welcome. molly's trans transitional leaders have been released after being removed by the country's vice president colonel. see me go to is one of the military officers who lead last year, who he arrested the prime minister and president on monday. the un security council

9:49 pm
spoken those days event use undistributed and recent anti semitic riots following the escalation of violence and israel misuse religion for political ends. that's why dialogue between religions is so important and why we need more exchange, more education, more knowledge about each other, and more interest in each other to survive the last 2000 years without optimism. so yes, we will also get here a new stars and something new where muslims, christian, jews can respect each other. maybe also at the end loving berlin, his home to more than 18 mosques in islamic price spaces. but this will actually be the 1st in the city center, the house of on the passive 11. so of all the problems we need to acknowledge there are political responsibilities involved in our task is to provide people with prayer and teaching to convey a vision of ease. so they recognize the we are different,

9:51 pm
and it would be condemned for the next 100. it is a foolish act of mankind, calculate that a deans at an is stepping down as ram madrid coach for the 2nd time in 3 years is off the route failed to win a trophy for the 1st time in the 11 seasons. they finish 2nd illegal behind a plesk in madrid and when knocked out by chelsea and the champions league semi finals. earlier, we speak to spanish. people writes at rich sharma about potentially replacing the 33 main names. really one is ro, obviously the former really madrid strike and he's currently in charge of the b team. you know, he'll be almost the kind of the dyna replacement because the dad was in charge of the b team for he took over the 1st time around then there's i'm turn your content into milan. he recently parted ways with into, you know, he's, he's a manager of the caliber, you kind of need to take charge of ram, madrid. and in the past, you know, he was late to madrid. sergio ramos didn't want to come, he said, we don't need that type of manager. we need somebody's, you know, more of a man manager. but with ramos contract up in
9:52 pm
a months time. and we didn't know if you're almost going to renew or not. maybe now is this one to convey to come on the other name is marissa puts the p s. the manager who obviously still has a contract with paris, but there is talk that he might try and leave link would talk to them as well. and maybe florentine and parents will try and hijack that because in the past, he really wanted to just, you know, in charge tennis now and what number 2 name is soccer wont be speaking to the media during the upcoming front. chosen a soccer says the press often show no task athletes, mental health, and expecting players to answer questions off to face amounted to kicking a person. while that down the full time, a grunt from champion is trying to win the tournament brought on girls for the 1st time. and once any fine she receives to go to mental health charity. well, for more on this story, when i joined by renown to tennis, try to john was i'm from sports illustrated. john, thank you for joining. if you're in paris to cover the french open, what's your reaction to a saw because decisions now it's really an interesting set of circumstances. we
9:53 pm
have not had a ball play yet. we already have a, something of an upset. there's a lot going on here. part of this is the relationship between athletes and the media stuff. i think it's very specific tonight, saca who has talked about some of her mental health challenges in the past. she's 12 tournaments to major tournaments in the past few months, but has been not very good here on clay in europe on this surface. i think it's an interesting case. this is not just a peevish athlete. thing. i don't want to talk to the media. this is an athlete who really is struggling with some challenges is not playing particularly well. and she think this will have a real adverse impact on her mental health. and therefore on her performance when you say that she's struggling with some of these challenges and joke of which amends, what number actually said today, the speaking to the media is part and parcel of life on the part of that job. so do you think it's her duty to engage with the press?
9:54 pm
yeah, i mean, i think one thing that's going on here for decades, this has been the rules of engagement that athletes are seen as public figures. and when they, when they're toasted, when they lose, their also called to account for their performance. and i think what a lot of us are thinking about this really the best way to have this relationship that i think a lot of other players are saying. and i've heard this from, from retired players, but also for back to players who have said privately to be, look, this is what happened. nobody wants to go in there and take questions after they've lost nobody. you, a surgeon, a teacher bond trader. nobody wants to be held accountable for a bad day at the office, but those are the rules that we agree to in this sports provides us with a platform and with wealth and we're public figures. but i think one thing that's interesting about this is a lot of us have really, i think, spent some time thinking is this the best way to have this kind of interaction that really existed for at least in the united states for 100 years. so i think it's an interesting set of circumstances and obviously protecting anybody's mental health
9:55 pm
is incredibly important. and he thinks he could have gone about this in a slightly different way. yeah, i mean, i think that that the timing was, was a bit strange quite apart from the fact that the big event is about to started in 2 days. this was also the week that it was word came about. diary osaka makes $50000000.00 off the court. that is perhaps not relevant to this, but i thought the optics word great that a lot of people are targeting. this is cheap, basically thing i, i have the money to do what i don't want to, you know, i'll eat the fine, i'm not going to do what i don't want to do. there are sponsors involved in this, and the women's tennis is a 4th is always trying to grow and trying to acquire more fans. this is, this is adverse to that interest. it was a little strange and it came out of the blue and i think that's what a lot of people scratching their heads about. if in fact they're real mental health challenges that she finds with having these press conferences. i think a lot of people show great empathy, but to just sort of stay on the eve of a tournament. i'm not doing press conferences, i think it has caught
9:56 pm
a lot of people. what put it, including the women's tennis association. yeah, you mentioned the women's tennis association that how do you think that the french and organizes will react to this? it's a great question because we are speculating at this point. we would have thought if this were a conventional american teen court, we would surely have heard from the team or from the lead by now. we're sort of waiting to see how they are dealing with this. naomi. serena williams is 39 years old and is a wonderful champion, but she, you know, is much closer to the end of her career than the beginning. i owe me a soccer, is the future star. again, this is a multi national brand. i mean, this is an athlete who makes more money off the court than any other female athlete in the world. so i think this is a very delicate matter, but i cannot imagine women tennis is particularly pleased by this. again, given that this is an organization that wants to promote its athletes and wants its athletes to be accessible and and what they've always been interesting to me as i always saca has been
9:57 pm
a wonderful interview. i mean she has charm people in press conferences. she's made political statements and press conference, and i think another reason why a lot of people are scratching her head is that she really seemed to thrive in its environment. so for her to say that this is had this adverse impact on her mental health. i don't think anyone would challenge that if that's how she feels, but she's been sort of a press conference, darlene go of all players. i think a lot of would think she's she might be among the the least likely to take a stand like this. john, thank you very much for joining us and enjoy the tournament. now moving on that event us i one of the club facing of punishment from you a for which could include a champions league back for that involvement in the south sea plague. and that presumably wouldn't go down to well with the rain, the new boss you buy a place to announce in the return of mass millionaire allegra is the head coach to replace andrea pillow who's going to be sax off just one season in charge of that regard. to the club, to 5 successively titles between 2014 and 19 and it's been out of work since leaving 2 years ago. you've won the italian cup this year,
