4:04 pm
but we cannot turn blindly away when such things happen in the world. yoyo has been one that faces strong economic sanctions if the fighting continues, but it has dismissed us interference in its internal affairs. the us invoice to the region is headed back the next week, hoping strong messages from washington might force a change on the ground island fisher. i'll just see the capitol hill. well, the red cross as people integrate are at risk of severe long term food shortages ahead of the planting season. farming essential, such as seeds and fertilizer are now running low. the organization is providing supplies to nearly 40 villages across the region, but the constant threat of violence means working on the land has now become difficult when since october 25th we've been living in fear how children are suffering we are fearful. whenever we hear the sound of corrugated iron, we all run thinking it's gunshot, we run to the hills and mountains on our way. the situation has heard of
4:05 pm
a lot. we all left our homes with nothing, and our children have been exposed to different diseases. there's no school, all the children and women are hiding in the mountains. joining us now live on the news from addis ababa is the freelance journalist, samuel, get a true, samuel, get a true just take us through if you can. what's going on there in that region of to great today? well, for the last 6 months it has been, you want to turn disaster. there has been thousands of people that have been, i think the thousands of people have gone to the sudan looking for some kind of safety. there are women that are being abused sexually abused. it's no longer on the geisha, but that's something that has been proven over the last 6 months, even the children government has, is beginning to recognize that things are happening and some kind of action needs to be taken. because again,
4:06 pm
thousands of people continue to be fixed and the violence is continuing even today, up to 6 months. action, by whom however, because getting into the region must be almost impossible. it's almost impossible much of the state law tax, testable to monitor and organizations according to the un. there are all kinds of accusations and with media limited access and independence, investigation being of limits also. now it's really difficult to pinpoint who's doing this much of this. but there are all kinds of speculation and blaming all kinds of factors. but what's happening in the state of to grow. this seems to be a growing awareness or a growing use of the phrase ethnic cleansing here. that is clearly a very loaded phrase. but from what your sources are telling you,
4:07 pm
is that actually what we will see in c gray when people get in when the reporters manage to get in we're, we're hearing all kinds of, again, all kinds of allegations, much of the information we're getting, we can't even verify them, but we have to wait. i mean there are money in the situations that are in a better position to declare this what it is and the un route, i mean the u. n is looking at the children side is looking at it. so i think we'll have to wait and see for someone who are more credible to, to declare it if it says war crimes. but also now that has been declared given by the standards of the u. s, which was beginning to function as far as we can tell is this now completely a symmetric i ethnic cleansing in essence, ethnic cleansing. or is there any kind of pushback against the purple traces going
4:08 pm
on at all? i think there is an interest from all sides to bring this to the end because it's again a fake, the not just human beings, but the infrastructure of the region of grades which you mentioned earlier, which is a huge touch, overwhelming farm. and almost 40 years ago and there is an interest from all. busy sides know to repeat what we went through, what your bill went through some 40 years ago. but again, this conflict is continuing. there are 5 things we hear from all sides. and we just were watching it from a distance and it's really own a person. i know it's, it's even very difficult to watch it right here from the server. okay, we'll leave it there. samuel gets too many, thanks for joining us from adam today. thank you. well, about a quarter of old schools. any therapies degree region have been damaged by this
4:09 pm
conflict, that's according to a new report from human rights watch. it's documented a text by all sides. the group accuses government troops abusing a high school as a military base. witnesses also reported seeing troops bringing women into the school who would leave badly beaten days later. the fisher beta is the human rights watch, one of africa director and one of the reports offers. she says they pulled on the therapy and government to stop the practice of occupying schools. what our records shows is that who are warring parties have been implicated in attacking, pillaging, but also occupying schools across the p k region. now we hone in on one particular school, which is a very historic school in the capital of the region mckinley, which is the actually your hominy school, where we basically find, found that the monks and on 2 separate occasions,
4:10 pm
ethiopian government forces occupies the score. but not only be occupied it, they 40 find it, they used it as a key watch tower and based in the capital mckinley. but they also destroyed a lot of property and find it and pillaged much of the property in the school. so this is not only an impact on school children's ability to receive an education now, but also has a much longer term impact on school children's ability to, to, to receive the education they've been missing for the last 6 months. keep carpet. this is obviously going to be ensuring accountability for the abuses which these communities have seen happen. as i said, there is a real fear of returning to school because forces that have abused and have destroyed the schools often around you and human rights council is to investigate potential war crimes. during the 11th a conflict between israel and hamas at look into allegations of abuse on all sides

4:13 pm
we need to further step to be taken, which is to actually punish the occupation, but away from the politics. many see this investigation as important for shedding light on the ongoing struggle of palestinians under occupation. what has come up and this coming up in this room guys, council is the tackling and investigation of what is called the root causes of the recent round of violence. and these are the institutionalized discrimination and the method oppression that israel imposes on palestinians. this is the heart of whether it's happening right now. the united nation has been down this road before on israel and palestine since 2005, the human rights council has had 9 sessions on the situation in gaza. and while israel sees this as bias, others in the international community see it as evidence that something has to change. kristen salumi al jazeera, the united nations. the united nations is asking for $95000000.00 in an emergency appeal for garza to cover humanitarian needs. the next 3 months,

4:21 pm
to russia and convincing better race. now, the russians are saying that this delay and the granting of permits is just a bureaucratic issue to do with the extra paperwork, essentially in applying for change flight routes. that won't be the way that it's being interpreted in european capitals. they will see this as a deliberate pushback from russia away for russia to increase the burden on european airlines that are trying to comply with the new advice to go around that race. and to basically make this a political issue, it's already political issue, but to heighten this kind of stand off in, in russia itself, the, the, the kremlin is saying that this, this, this issue over the ation shouldn't stand of the way or better relations or
4:22 pm
improving relations between russia and the european union, they have broadly welcomes this announcement of there will be an international investigation into the incidence last weekends where the plane was diverted to minsk. but the criminal saying that it doesn't want to many of these such investigations because according to the kremlin, they can get the right information from the man who is at the center of it. that is alexandra lucas shanker. the president batteries who is now in saatchi and about to meet with president putin himself. ok. rory, many things that really challenge for us reporting from london. germany has officially recognized its committed genocide in the media and has agreed to pay financial support. german forces were ordered to exterminate the herero and nama peoples after an uprising against colonial rule. in the early part of the 20th century, around
4:23 pm
a 100000 people are believed to have been killed. after 5 years of talks, germany rule that reparations, but agreed to provide $1300000000.00 in aid for development projects. japanese foreign minister says germany plans to support the media and the descendants of the original victims, precise and how it to deny. we will now officially call these events what they were from today's perspective, a genocide in doing so, we are also acknowledging our historical responsibility in the light of germany's historical and moral responsibility. we will ask namibia and the descendants of the victims for forgiveness that ca, list us and minds and as a gesture of recognition of the incalculable suffering nor was inflicted on the victims. we want to support and may be and the descendants of the victims with a substantial program amounting to 1100000000 years. and this will focus in particular on rebuilding and development lab. and then,
4:24 pm
so how to germany end up committing genocide more than a century ago. in 1884, the german government asserted its control over the territory now known as the media. people resisted that occupation resulting in the years of conflict between the various tribes. german settlers and occupying military forces by 19 o 4 local rebellions turned into an all out war. german forces were ordered to exterminate the herrera and nom a people who were leading the resistance. historic can suggest german forces killed more than 100000 people. and some 80 years later that may be gained its independence, moving away from white minority a party rule to a democratic system. let so now to israel, kona g k. he's a member of no amnesty on genocide and the only herero activist in germany. he joins us from the german capital, berlin, israel, kona she kate, welcome to the news. how will anything less than full,
4:25 pm
ongoing reparations be enough to allow the peoples of the b, b a. to turn the page here according to the number be an association or the head i was in, i may be and partner. we are not happy with your decision because the us, that my unity of that also most of representing barrels and animals were not involved in this talks. so it means this talks, which is which, where between the 2 governments, without the dissidence. and that's why we reject this agreement between the 2 governments. if there had been representation of the herrera people within the framework of these discussions, would those herrera people have accepted what the german government has offered? because at its core, reparations takes the whole equation of dialogue. into
4:26 pm
a completely different league, because reparations by definition, are always open ended. there's never an end to reparation. so generation upon generation can go back to the guilty party and say, you've got to come up with a price tag for what you did to my ancestors and keep on paying. yeah, well there were some harry ross who were part of these talks, but there were puppets of the government of know, maybe the government don't you know, maybe a is not ready to mice to represent us because this government is a swap or government. they're coming from the northern part of not maybe a so we even those who are taking part in this talks, especially some few arrows and some here are glens the are just betraying us. so we do, we, we got this as this is betray to the, to our ancestors,
4:27 pm
we're still in germany, the college and all this kind of, of things. and these had nothing to do with reparation. they call it no, not reparation. but he got reconciliation. so this is a kind of a new, new art of, of, of development that age and development age goes to this government. and this government, media, as we know, is a corrupt government. and this money will never reach the norma. there are people, especially though the dissidence of these 2 nations. that's why we say no to this reconciliation, we want to reparation. we want to talk directly to the german government. this is a solution of, or 200, those to 2007 over the united nations that indigenous people have the
4:28 pm
right to speak for themselves. so we were ignored all the yes. so do years that he has of independence. and the 6 years of this talks, this, this talk took about 6 years. can you imagine? yeah, and 100. and now if you 150, yes. war. and they now trying to, to bribe the government one with one comma, 1000000000 for 30 years. ok. he is, if we have to say thank you mr. g. i'm very sorry to interrupt you like this, but we do have to move on to some other news here on the news of it. thank you so much for joining us. thank you very much. thank you. very much from the german capital the west african regional blog echo also calling an emergency meeting to discuss the political crisis in molly, after the army overthrew the interim president and the prime minister,
