our office in coaching interest in the interest of our national paid organizations have access to today and we will be extending with a security on the necessary semester. but they wouldn't let me forget. this is the conflict that killed thousands of people and left millions in diet humanitarian need and all sides have been accused of committing abuses against civilians. malcolm web has our report now from nairobi. i 23 a. p and government troops took control of the city of mckelly. last year. prime minister abbey ama declared victory over the to grand people's liberation. front. 7 months of conflict followed thousands of being killed. and then it all changed. on monday, when the tpr left took mikella back, the government appointed administration fled and then asked for

a cease fire as it will fall into the academy. honda but we ask in the name of to dry and all peace loving people, the federal government for a cease fire based on humanity in such a way that prevent further damage so that it is possible for people to find respite and become part of the solution. that has among the most recent death were around 40 people killed in an asteroid. last week. the army said those killed the fighters . survivors said the bomb his market. around the same time, the t p left began it's offensive to retake mckelly, which is the capital of the 2 great region. is fully under the control of our forces, government forces and the government is back in control of the capital. and so when you're held election last week to gray was one of 4 out of the country, 10 regions that didn't cite the conflict began partly because the elections due

last year was delayed before that the t p. a laugh at dominated ethiopia, government, and military for nearly 30 years. and so prime minister, ibm, it took power 3 years ago. a power struggle followed which erupt it into a civil war. the conflicts displaced nearly 2000000 people into gray. were widespread reports of attacks on civilians burning of crops and looting. the un says france left 90 percent of the population in urgent need of food. said there's already a famine and it's expected to get worse. doctors without borders said 3 of his staff were killed. last week. unicef says government troops entered his office in mckelly on monday and dismantled communications equipment. we condemn any and all attacks on humanitarian workers and assets and remind again all parties of their obligations under international humanitarian law. all parties must ensure the

protection of civilians and that all humanitarian assistance provided by the united nations is provided according to humanitarian principles. much of the conflict has been fought in small towns and villages where right groups say thousands of civilians have been killed, got people waiting to see if the ceasefire will bring peace. and the help they desperately need. malcolm web al jazeera, not long up to the sci fi happened, the us warned ethiopia and era try that. it would take further action if the declaration of a sci fi integrate actually failed to end. the conflict roberts godek was speaking to a congressional committee in washington discussing the violence in the region. remember, last night the us imposed visa restrictions on both countries and economic sanctions on the o. p. e o. p u. is it a pivot point to add an inflection point with the parties do now matters and will

determine whether there is a better future ahead for the if the government announcement of a cessation of hostilities does not result in improvement in the situation continues to orson. if the opiate in eritrea should anticipate further actions, we will not stand by in the face of horrors in grey. she has her times, he's been following that hearing on capitol hill tonight she had at tines. you heard people in that hearing talking about quite firmly, particularly about ethiopia and then other times that seem to pull back a bit. why was there this sort of, you know, really trying to centralize itself the u. s. in this, in this conflict, throughout this conflict, they've got the sense that not only is the view, yet a pivot point, as the u. s. assistant secretary of state of africa mentioned. but the us relations with the peer relationship with you here, you may be at a pivot point. if your peer remains one of the u. s. is key. african

allies was always called the anchor of stability for the u. s. u. s. interests in the hold of africa. so since the conflict began, biden ministration has taken a very soft, softly approach in some way. the bye didn't ministration seize africa in many ways through the prism of china. and the biggest fear that provide administration might have is that china, which already has huge investments in ethiopia, will consolidate batteries if you will be lost in inverted commas to china. and trying to came up a number of times at this house foreign affairs committee meeting. so it was late may, really to the by did ministration began getting tough with your peer with sanctions on visas. all these, you know, drew with the withholding of these is very few yet and they're a try and officials. but it was the key that, but there's that sense that they haven't really been doing pushing hard because they do not want to alienate if you they were happy to think of this as a domestic matter, much as you know. so some other nations often looked at,

looked at these issues that's getting that's been getting more and more difficult for the, for the bite administration to, to take, to carry on with, alter, to, to adhere to that position as the scale of the abuses have become clear in fact, as you say, one minute we have the usa id representative talking about terrible famine caused by human actions. and he does human actions clearly well being suggested. what if you, if you'd government's actions and then on the other hand, that would be well, but you know, if your major ally of us and we, we hope now that they know the sense will prevail. in fact, the one the clearest moment. so that was the travel of foreign affairs committee who actually said, you know what, we're saying best. the hallmarks of crimes against humanity and quite possibly genocide for almost the same breath. and his conclusion was, so maybe a prime minister legacy is in question. just function crimes against humanity and genocide, but, but that's the strongest they would go after the prime minister as you can see, this balancing act with the strategic priorities. geopolitical priorities of the us

ad, what's going on it on any theory, as well as the humanitarian consent. and there is that debate, whether, how far, how far can you, if you go, how far can they go, especially with the damn issue with the egypt, which is a whole other issue or other things. how far can you just push the u. s. and still keep washington the support shepherd tansy on capitol hill. thank you. she had earlier i spoke to cameron hudson as well as a non resident senior fellow at the atlantic council. he says washington's been trying to keep its options open while still engaging with ethiopia. they've been trying to use diplomatic persuasion up to this point to get the ethiopian government to relent in its sort of pursuit of total victory in gray. they have not been successful in, in that conversation, but they have withheld some of the most biting sanctions that the united states have. sanctions related to the human rights abuses that have gone on at the hands of b, o. b, in government troops and their allies in the region. so what was being alluded to

there by the state department representative was the fact that the administration has planned and is prepared to, to sanction ethiopian government and military officials for the crimes being committed. unless this is fire hold, unless there is some, some, some, some permanence to, to the changes that we've seen just in the last 24 hours. we've also heard from the un, which is welcome to cease fire by ethiopian government, and is urging all sides to allow humanitarian work. to continue this, we call for calm restraint and appealed to all parties to the conflict to abide by international law to protect civilians including people who have been displaced and to ensure that humanitarian workers can continue to exercise their duties and reach as many people as they can, which are in need of vital assistance right now. just 11 minutes past the hour. here is what coming up she lives. government unveils or forms against police

brutality activists. the raising questions about the changes also the briggs that blues for european citizens, the deadline loom to apply for their right to say, living in the u. k. and the sport 41 year old venus williams reach at the 2nd round . at wimbledon highlights jemma a little later ah, on some other news, confrontations taking place between palestinian protesters and is ready forces in occupied east jerusalem. many in the phil one neighborhood are angry over the demolition of palestinian, which is shock earlier on tuesday. that was really caught authorize that action rolling were built without a proper permit. also, the homes of 13 families are at risk of being knocked down. the un is urging israel to stop the demolition. we're obviously following these recent developments

in east jerusalem, including in the booster neighbourhood extremely closely. the secretary general is indeed deeply concerned by the continued demolitions. he once again reiterates his call to the israeli authorities to end demolitions and evictions in line with israel's obligations under international humanitarian and international human rights law. well into the evening now in one occupied east jerusalem his henry force. how are you? what's been happening in the last few hours? well, right now, things have come to some extent. the number of security forces has been diminishing over the last half hour or so. there's not a volley of fireworks just now, but a couple of hours ago, they will study significant confrontations and missions between security forces and protest is what took place earlier in the evening. was a peaceful demonstration outside that demolished shock about

a 120150 people with chanting, saying that they would defend salon to the surrounding areas here in ocoee bodies through them. then there was a march to a protest 10th. and at that point, there was a smaller group of palestinian youth who saw what they thought was a car being driven by a jewish israeli. and they attacked dot com with stones and kicking. it was totally off to that, that the security forces came in and they were confrontations, skirmishes guy was used to try to disperse, the crowd, stones were thrown from the crowd. things say have calm down a bit now, but of course this is about much more than one shop. it's about a threat to dozens and dozens of homes in this neighborhood of aki bodies to them, to make way for a jewish archaeological talk. there any way out for those palestinian families, these ones have been well,

i've been told that homes are going to be demolished or i think in some cases of been told to demolish their own hands. we have so that is the the usual system that once a demolition order is made, you have $21.00 days to demolish your own home or wait for the is ready for us to do it. at which point they charge you an extra penalty of thousands of dollars for the privilege of having your home demolished. now that is the case for this butcher shop. there is another such a building as well, which is whose $21.00 has expired. beyond that, the year, i mean n g o is really unsure which monitors the situation in occupied east jerusalem. it says that there are some 20 homes or buildings in total that are at the threat of imminently getting such a demolition order because they were built off a law which makes it much more difficult to challenge this kind of thing in the court. there another $48.00 cases currently going through the courts and there are

more besides that are under threats. so this is a, a major threat to a major part of palestinian life in ocoee bodies through them. it's a test of this new government which contains palestinian israeli politicians who argue against such demolitions. and it's a test of the whole situation which we saw, of course, in april with attentions and the violence in jerusalem itself in may with that war with the fighting factions, hamas, chiefly in gaza, between these ready forces and them. and now this does risk heightening those tensions once again, hiring for reporting from phil one occupied east jerusalem. thank you harry. it's here from dr ahmad most so they now are a resident of the other stuff, neighborhood and still one she is one of the people whose home is on the threat of demolition and she says there is concern. more homes will be knocked down on the coming days. and now we have a stand with the people who are similar to the houses and you know where the things

that the houses have activities that should make more efficient on that position and all that stuff that the machine go to the houses. but really, we can know when we have it, who would be the next step for us and before, and the thing is we have only the people that we don't know even if the machine will continue to morrow. and here in the neighborhood, there is a whole if you get it then to to have the whole neighborhood each time the use of land. that's me. we give them as many as we can know to, to diminish more houses in the few. and they say in the region and the palestinian

authority is releasing its report on the investigation, is that the death of activist is honored by not. his family members are concerned about the reports. credibility and calling for an impartial and international investigation into his death by nuts was a critic of the palestinian authority, often accusing it of corruption. he died on thursday, shortly after being detained by p. a security forces in his home near abraham, in ramallah for us take us through this report. i mean it, it appears to be the palestinian authority investigating itself, which i'm sure will displays a lot of people. we've just come out from the palestinian justice minister who just talked about the investigation committee and said that it's concluded it's works. it has the method. it's reported to the palestinian prime minister. and according to the justice minister,

this report will be carried from the prime minister to the palestinian president. many journalists who were just hearing the press conference were saying that he didn't add much. and he didn't talk about the details of what this investigation committee has established. and to your question, when it comes to the palestinian authority investigating itself. this is partly one of the reasons why the family of been out on monday has withdrew the families doctor from this investigation committee saying that they don't trust the results. but according to many i'm the we've been speaking through, they were saying that in order to calm down the frustration and the anger and the street, they are expecting the palestinian authority to hold the security forces. the members who are involved in the arrest which later led to the death of our but not to hold them accountable to kind of whether the anger and frustration in the street . of course, we are going to be witnessing and the following. what is going to come out?

we may, might expect the policy of prime minister or the president himself to be talking about this issue to kind of try and call the stories out. but it is a wait and see at the moment we've been seeing a lot of anger in the threes of processors coming out in the past few days, saying that the palestinian authority has intentionally killed mazata. but that they weren't large groups of people. but we've been seeing a lot of for the use of force by the policy is not the forces as well as palestinians and civil flows that many often you we've talked to say that they are part of the security establishment. they were just wearing civil phone. and they were trying to stop those protesters to prevent them from taking out to the fries, as well as preventing journalists from doing their job and reporting on these need abraham reporting from ramallah on the news out. thank you, nita. israel's foreign minister arrived in the united arab emirates smoking the

highest level visits since the 2 countries normalized relations. 9 months ago. yeah . yeah. it's been inaugurating israel's embassy and up adobe and the consulate and to buy and is expected to sign an economic agreement. and also discuss iran, which both countries view as a regional threat to get to know one another, we need to respect and learn each other's culture and we need to let our economies connect and prosper. we need to maintain open dialogue and open mind israel want spaces, its neighbors with all its neighbors. we are going anywhere. the middle east is a home, and we are here to stay. so we call on all the countries of the region to recognize that and to come to talk to us. protesters have gathered in the iraqi capital bank, dad to condemn the killing of members of the p. m. f. the popular mobilization forces and the u. s. s. strike on monday, the group has threatened to retaliate the pentagon there in 5th,

the us presence in iraq is at the request of the iraqi government to help us fight against. i thought that i had reports now from bank that i ging to retaliate members of iraq. so popular mobilization forces held a symbolic funeral for the fight. you told me about the green soon. they were killed in monday's you as a dislike in m district, near the iraqi border with syria. i know, but i mean, what i don't was i don't have the how the rifles and drones of the resistance will mobilize. now, the time has come to events, the death of our heroes, including costume, still a money, and we must deal more hon this there was a heavy security presence in the area. the with patricia took songs and then themes, the protest to the 3 banners. what they call resistance military commanders of the popular mobilization forces and political leaders say they want to convey

a former south african leader is facing jail time. jacob zoom has been ordered to surrender himself to police within 5 days. he was sentenced to 15 months for failing to appear at corruption inquiry. the constitutional court judges decision leaves the former president with few legal options and the extent to which mister myers attempted to justify defiance through public statements is off nor relevant. the statements were not for my defeat, it so far to be disregarded. the constitutional court came to nothing but conclude that mister may is guilty of the kind of contempt of court. zoom a resigned from office in 2018 of these own parties, threatened to pass a vote of no confidence against him for allegations of high level financial corruption and craft during his time as president. he's always maintained his innocence, but is not cooperated with. investigators may i ask you then,

as to how you feed to the charges that have been put, you need not to do to to one allegation against whom i include many tightens of industry whom he has said to have allowed to plunder, state resources and influence state policy, the former president maintains his, the target of a political campaign. but the constitutional court has described his defense and the pimp to gone up public support as insulting to the people of south africa. years of corruption scandals have left of africa, new leaders with the unenviable task of restoring investor confidence in africa's most industrialized economy. for media miller, i'll just 0. janice berg spoke to roger sunday. around the earlier he was a witness in these under commission hearings looking into corruption in this, in the government. and was also the editor of a news channel owned by the group to family. they have been charged in this inquiry as well. he told us to go to them to him, had a very cozy business relationship as part of the meetings we
