so far. however, it's worth remembering that this is a anonymous official speak into a washington posts or so it's not official. we don't know whether this investigation is going on. now whilst all of this happens, we still are hearing from the palestinian authority. they have the bullet that killed assuring ugly, they say, are they going to hang on to it? they don't trust either. these really are me all these really authorities to mount a proper investigation. so although people are talking about investigations as so far, there is no talk of an independent investigation, which is what the palestinians are looking for. right. okay, a man give us a sense of, of, of how people are feeling there. i know you're at damascus gate, which is so just outside the alex and mos compound and you've been reporting from the region for a very long time. and when you, when you speak to people, how people feeling now, i guess it's, it's been a few days for this news. very awful news to thank him.

trina barclay was reporting on the palestine for about 20 years. she was incredibly well known within the region, but not just within the region internationally as well. i out there arabic who she reported for is one of the biggest arabic news channels or in the world. and it was interesting as i was coming in to jerusalem crossing over the border or from a jordan. people was speaking to me once they found out i was from al jazeera, about serene, and how tragic that death wasn't. it wasn't just them anybody that i encountered palestinian or otherwise was talking to me about how sad they were about her death . there's a lot of shock. there's a lot of sadness as still and as we were in occupied easter islam coming here to damascus gate, we did see a lot of security around the ambassador hotel, which is the next to the hospital where her body is being kept from there, she will be brought to the church for her final resting place. we're expecting that

a brave person. there's an entire generation that grew up here watching she lena blocker. now you contrast that with the images we saw of her lying face down on the floor off to being shaw. you just can't put that sense of shock into words. i was talking with people who were at the hospital day before yesterday when shootings body emerged. and they said, we can't remember another time when i, a public impromptu procession broke out and people were just coming out of their homes to a school in a company. she means body shock and disbelief. kim samantha been saying the targeting of journalists, sharina, killing. it is not an isolated incident. is it? no, sadly, not if you look at what international organizations say like the international

federation of journalists, they talk about 46 journalists having been killed since the year 2000. they're talking about killings with no accountability. now we should point out, of course, israel denies that it deliberately targets journalists. it would fall into its basic laws of israel that a shrines press freedom, respect for a vibrant press. but despite that, there are plenty of international organizations that say, journalists are deliberately todd didn't. this is being revived again by the killing of sharina bach. though when you read the statement salt agnes caliber, the sex regenerate, i've sexual general of amnesty international look at how she said this is a deadly reminder of what she called. these railey system in her words, that kills palestinians, left and right with impunity. so there is a great sense of that. this is not a one off, this may be a very high profile killing, but it's something that journalists have to deal with here. and it's often goes

with no accountability, right, sammy's it on there for us in ramallah and the oxide westbank. thank you. well, israel has carried out more raids and janine in the occupied westbank. that's where sharina block. they was killed. one palestinian man is in the hospital after being shot in the back. dozens had been killed during his ready operations in the city since march. last month by mister natalie bennett, gave his ready forces full freedom of operations as well says its actions are a response to palestinian attacks. us is pushing both sides to share the findings of any investigations into sharon's death, saying washington is willing to help us de naiambi does have refused any joint investigation with israel has our white house correspondent, kimberly alcott president biden is set to host king abdullah of jordan and his son in the oval office on friday, it's an effort to promote stability between is re lease and palestinians in the

midst of escalating tensions that include the killing of journalists, sharing a clay. here's what the white house press secretary gen saki had to say. we encourage both parties to do so thoroughly and transparently, and to share their findings, to ensure that all evidence in this case is available and fully assessed. we stand ready to assist either party in any way that we can neither side as ask for our assistance at this time, and such a request would require in order for us to do so. president biden is scheduled to visit israel next month. the details of the trip have not been released, and it's unclear of the white house. we'll use the visit to press israel for accountability in the death of serene abu, our clay. muttering, todd ross is the deputy regional director of advocacy amnesty international. i was a friend of sri. she says her former colleague was motivated by getting the facts about the treatment of palestinians known she wanted the truth to, you know,

a lack of is political will. so what we need to do is turn all of this condemnation, all of this a pulled, you know, sentences that are coming out of the mouth of politicians and un officials and you know, kings and queens around the world. we need to turn that into action. we need to turn that into an actual investigation that produces a report that produces some justice and that we see finally, someone being held to account for the cna's crime. still head on al jazeera post, i thought it was a major diplomatic shift offended. moving towards nato membership and tell you what russia has to say. questioning the returned power of a markoff, where a protest against the vote for the president in the philippines. ah, he has begun the full wolf copies on its way to the castle. travel cottage today.

neutral after the 2nd world war ended much booty. you made it, you made it so. so obviously we politicians living, representative democracy. we must respect also the people's opinions, and that's where we are. the social democratic party m p was one of finland, staunch his opponents of nato membership. not anymore. if you turn around from many in finland, believing for decades that stay neutral is key to the security. they know. say that put into actions have pushed them towards natal, while rush has made it clear, it's not happy with this decision and that as well react the fence. just hope it won't retaliate. joining nato means finland will be protected by its optical 5 saying an attack on one member is an attack on all, but it's the great period of a number of months before membership is formalized, that worries defense. while the u. k, in other countries have offered security guarantees to finish president is trying to reassure russia in my thinking this is quite simple. actually.

we increase our security and we do not take it away from anybody. i am almost sure they will be not major issue some political, the supplements, et cetera, et cetera. that's true, but no address. so i'm not actually afraid because i still trust limit that there must go. they have rates. that's also what the young soldiers are hoping for. i think if we were part of nato, then there would, there would, there would be so much backups. so oh, no, i'm not scared was death dog barbara, having a well equipped army of nearly 300000 soldiers. finland says it will be an asset to nito. while these conscripts are looking forward to working together with other nations joining the alliance will put an end to

furthermore, that the israelis, we're not investigating those incidents properly. now, what they're alleging is that that amounts to a breach of international law and may even amount to a war crime. and the death, the killing of serene clay is now going to be at the forefront of that case what the palestinian authority wants and what the journalist groups is to add her to the existing names that are already listed in front of the i c. c. so that the people responsible for killing shearing actually, potentially are brought here to the head. now there is an issue in a sense that israel doesn't recognize the jurisdiction of the i c c. and also they will not cooperate with any investigation. but the fact is that if it is really official, or even a government minister has an arrest warrant issued against them by this court here, they will faith the risk of arrest in any one of more than 120 i. c c members. and
