12:03 am
ha ha. c ha ha ha. 7 ha, ha, ha, ha dollar. yeah. i love yes. what i did, i got a cell phone video was filmed by journalist you survived the attack, which i, he does saudi was one of those who accompanied sharon, on assignment and jeanine in the occupied westbank that day. he revisited the area and retrace their steps. mckesson confirmed the cock woman for mother diana. we. i took a dorm from here. we began to walk towards the location where a colleague sharika was murdered, as we continued to walk naturally and quietly. we stood here at this spot and myself and my colleagues will come from it when. 1 it's m m, i know which one i'm home. did you stand in front of them so to see you the tub. uh huh. sure. i'll do it. oh yes, of course we did. they originally saw us coming from the beginning of the street and we stopped. right here, we wore helmets and bulletproof press vessel,
12:04 am
and we also made sure to we're here to all safety standard. now my camera was with me and i put it here to record what was happening on the street. and was the presence of the occupational forces. after a few seconds the shooting started today, and the 1st bullet hit this building. and i told my colleagues that they were shooting at us, being journalists also, but we have to protect ourselves. i thought they'd been up. but were you exactly when the 1st bullet was fired? we were in this spot, bene is really military says it's not opening a criminal investigation into the killing of sharina berkeley because she was in a quote, active combat situation. but they said an operational inquiry into her death will continue showing was shot in the head by israeli forces, or covering a raid and janine, in the occupied westbank. the military says it's identified as soldiers. rifle which may have killed her. it says it cannot be sure unless the palestinians turn over the bullet for analysis. on the day of her funeral is ready for his storm, the procession and beat mourners, causing pul bears, mister, drop her coffin,
12:05 am
and visit the international community of condemned kidding, and continue to cool for a transparent investigation. as a palestinian israeli member of israel's parliament has quit the governing coalition fighting the police violence against morning that she means funeral. as one of her reasons. i don't know, we do our b resignation, these prime minister natalie bennett's coalition in a precarious position where they're only 59 of the 120 seats in the class. it also said police violence against worshippers on temple mt during ramadan was bought behind the decision, and she cannot continue to support a coalition that shamefully harasses a community around come in was to have some has more on why there's no criminal investigation. the reason for this is that if they had to make an investigation, it would have to be one of the criminal nature. here's the statement, the decision not immediately launch an m p c id investigation. unless he is ready,
12:06 am
military police was made in accordance with the general policy regarding criminal investigations in judy and mary about the israeli name from the occupied west bank . as approved by the supreme court. according to this policy, criminal investigation will not be launched immediately. if a death occurs during an active combat situation, unless there's a credible and immediate suspicion of a criminal offense that was identified during the event. so clearly these really on the do not think the killing of a journalist who was wearing a vest and a helmet was a criminal event. also in this current political climate in israel, the investigation of any is really soldier is simply unpalatable. we spoke to the family, they've issued a statement, and this is what they said. we were expecting this when the writing side. that's why we didn't want them to participate in the investigation. we want to hold who is responsible for these count accountable. we are the u. s. in particular. and she is a us citizen and the international community to open just and transpire
12:07 am
investigation and to put an end to these killings. so the palestinians, i am the family themselves, were never expecting an investigation. however, the national community was the americans and particularly vocal saying that these ratings were not only capable of bouncing and independent investigation, but they were urging them to do so. so let's wait. we way we'll hear from the americans later, but what kind of pressure they'll be able to put on israel given the strength of the statement from these really only thing we're simply not investigating remains to be seen. and josie is the palestinian assistant minister for multilateral affairs. he says israel's unwillingness to investigate sharina killing comes as no surprise. the reasons is as clear as 1st that there is the culture of the community that is entrenched and improved by a multitude of international reports. second, because that will draw me against the well documented trend of behavior that has
12:08 am
been conducting for over 5040 years of its cruel occupation. occupied but listening to the and thirdly, it is because that is really judicial system itself is another layer of occupation . and it's there in relation to the palestinians and they're all the to why was white wash and he kind of crimes committed against the, for the senior. so the reality is that there is no surprise whatsoever. and that the insistence off is only 20 percent of its. impunity is certainly something that we have been expecting your defense extra noise. austin met israel's defense. mr. benny gans over a working breakfast earlier on. there is that demolish right off the pentagon. if the killing of sure we know berkeley who is american, palestinian was raised his their exchange i want to talk to you about the me working breakfast between the secretary of defense on benny guns. the read up
12:09 am
didn't mention anything about the killing golf. i'm assuming american joining us should in a box. obviously there was a lot of condemnation has come from us for me because with regards to the killing of the journalist, it is highly likely that she was killed using an american welcome. considering the weaponry, years by the israeli military, was this discussed in the between the 2 during the meeting. and if indeed there was some sort of an investigation that established with us weapon was used to kill an american journalist. would there be any reprimand or a sanctioning from the u. s. with regards to this, what i can tell you the subject did come up in the breakfast and the secretary welcomed a israel's intent statement, clear statement of intent to investigate this. he welcome. that hate recommended that they will not be actually came out today saying they will not to investigate.
12:10 am
took the refuse for the government of israel. it's not for these really military. i believe it's in their ministry of interior and they haven't stated a clear intent to investigate and the secretary welcome that, that investigation. and obviously we look forward to seeing what the investigation finds out. but i'm not going to get ahead of it or speculate about what the outcomes might be one way or the other, what you don't think, but there is a bit of room for concern. considering good is, is role that is accused of killing a journalist. and if it was another country, and i'd say about killed an american journalist, maybe the u. s. won't be so well coming to allowing for that country to investigate itself, let's say was iran or yeah, i appreciate the chance the opportunity here to get me to speculate about investigations that haven't been started for events that hasn't happened yet. we welcome the fact that there will be an investigation. we've made clear. we want to see this investigation be thorough and transparent and complete. but i also don't think it sort of serves anybody's purpose to get ahead of it when it's ongoing and
12:11 am
it hasn't, hasn't concluded. so let's see what the investigation comes, but comes back and what it says. but it did come up in the conversation. yes, democratic congressman andre carson is the author of a letter calling the f. b. i to launch an investigation into sharing a book as killing, shooting was an american citizen, and kaufman says the u. s. has a responsibility to make sure she gets justice. this is a press freedom issue. this is a human rights issue, and it must be a priority for our federal government to see answers and accountability, you know, requesting a u. s. investigation is absolutely the right thing to do for any american journalists killed in the line of duty, apparently by foreign government soldiers. but it is absolutely critical to make this request now after the announcement that there won't be an investigation into this debt by the government officials where she was murdered. there are many people who are, who are, who are calling on
12:12 am
a deeper scrutiny as it relates to support for israel. israel has been a strategic partner in the united states. i think that when we send money, we have to make sure that folks are being held accountable. and you know, i think when we have an attack on the 4th, the state and the free press, we have to look more deeply. i think none of us can be above reproach, or criticism or critique. and you know, i think the lack of reverend step shown for her life in an extreme level of disrespect toward her home country, the united states as well as journalists across the world. quite frankly, who have risk their lives to bring us this important news. you know, it makes it even more important for our government to take on the task of investigating sharina needs justice. she deserves justice. every american killed abroad is entitled to our protection. every human pill, america, they're not the service justice palestinians included. when i talk more battle is
12:13 am
set with akiva elder. he's a political analyst and contributor to these really newspaper hurts. he joins us live from television. thanks very much indeed for being with us. if you want to pick up on that last point, the congressman andre custom was making about this call for an f b i investigation into should we know workers killing if that is agreed to buy the united states in the 1st place, would it be something that israel would actually agree to well, i don't believe that it will come to an american demand to involve foreign investigators in what israel sees as it's happening on the land that whether it's occupied or held by israel. it was, you know, was own and history shows that it is well, it's not very much in favor of independent investigations. look what happened
12:14 am
in former investigations in what happened in garza, by international organizations or even the u. n. n. and i don't see a big difference between killing a child who happens to be in the wrong place in the wrong guy. i'm a senior journalist and a journalist and i, i admired sharina and i'm very sorry of what happened. but the way israel sees it is yes, it's bad to b r a very unfortunate that you had an american passport, but. 3 dozens of seniors have been killed in the last year in jenny,
12:15 am
in gaza and elsewhere. and it is the one thing we said, the new one of the new elements said today is the resignation of in the class. it will just using the fact that will be on, on these ready government is actually the 2 scenarios that lie more likely to happen than others. one is that, as she said, she will vote according to her feelings and conscience will leave her and she will decide and to. busy hawk how to vote when it comes to resort to dissolving the parliament the lesson. but in any case, she is not going to subordinate danielle in trying to fall in alternative government. and this is not going to happen. so it's either we can see
12:16 am
a minority government functioning for a few more miles because i don't see that i don't think that this can exist for longer than a few months. and the other possibility is that a vote next week with the opposition to goal for early elections, and this will be the 1st elections in 3 years. and i think that this is less likely to happen because the majority of members of class, it is obvious of aware of the fact that this is going to be the last day in the, in the class it and there is no future for them. so i would not bet on the certificate of this government before. busy
12:17 am
early next year and just to get back to this year, we never play a situation. is it your impression that there is any kind of investigation going on? because we, we had there from the pentagon spokesman that they've been to show that there is an investigation from the interior ministry. what exactly, what form do you think that takes? what is actually happening right now? is that the, the army, the commando unit that was there at a time is investigating itself. and according to the 1st reports that are coming out, is that there was exchange of fire. and it is possible that these were easily troops were involved in this incident. but as one of. busy the ministers, not much shy who was previously disposed of the idea,
12:18 am
said on record that good ability of the idea in conducting this kind of investigation is quite cool. so in any case, the policy is not going to accept the results of such investigations. and i'm not sure if this will be satisfied, but if you connect this to the fragile situation to what is happening in the bottom and right now, i don't think that the americans are really missing. there's any hours government together with the racist bank. leo policy and they were, i think more likely to lead people to forget about it. and probably unfortunately this is not going to be the last, the civilian,
12:19 am
not even the last job is that is here. and some is where the school will argue that so far, i think 40 journalists were killed in ukraine and not many people try to remember all even asked what their names. so i came down to thank you very much need to appreciate coming on the president. thank you. dangerous. coming up on the news hour from london, us president joe biden offers his support for sweden and finland, nato bids. despite turkey's objections, former us president george w bush makes an embarrassing slip of the tongue while criticizing vladimir putin and sport with peter. it's been tough going for tiger woods on the of the day of the pga championship. ah,

a member of israel's parliament. us quit the governing coalition, citing the police violence against warners assurance funeral as one of her reasons and rushes defense ministry has released new footage of what it says or ukrainian soldiers from the besieged as of star steel plant in the city of mar, you, po, moscow, as a total of $1730.00 fighters of surrendered since monday cross go says sanctions on russia will have to be reviewed if it's to heed a u. n. appeal to open access to ukraine's black c sector. general antonio terrorists as the war could cause long term famines if exports and not restored to pre invasion levels. ukraine is often called world bread basket producing 12 percent of the planets, wheat, 15 percent of its corn, and half of its sunflower oil is estimated that 22000000 tons of grain. a stock in silos in ukraine, with russian warships blocking them from being transported by c shortfalls of
12:33 am
pushed up food prices, the world over, on average, almost 30 percent higher than this time last year. according to the u. n. it says 1700000000 people in more than a 100 countries of bill directly affected by ukraine's inability to export grain and communities. already struggling from the pandemic, had been hit particularly hard. un says 43000000 people are currently on the brink of famine. with 570000, facing the prospect of starvation. speaking of the un security council earlier america top to promote antony brinkman accused russia of using food as a weapon of war. russian government seems to believe that using food as a weapon will help accomplish what its invasion is not to break the spirit of ukrainian people. still ukrainians are going to great lengths to feed their own people and to feed the world. farmers and ukraine continue to risk their lives to produce wheat and other crops. many have returned to fields that are filled with
12:34 am
mines. they were bullet proof vests and helmets as they harvest. and as we've heard already, powerfully this warning, not only ukrainians were suffering as a result of the russian government's actions. some $20000000.00 tons of grain, cit, unused ukrainian silos as global food supplies, dwindle, prices skyrocket, causing more around the world to experience food insecurity. stop markets across the globe slumped once again, fearing a global recession driven by soaring inflation. the dow jones and new york extended losses and all point 75 percent in early trade. port earnings reports from major retailers from to the were sell off in 2 years on us markets on wednesday, foot see in london closed 1.82 percent down and hung saying in hong kong last more than 2 and
12:35 am
a half percent value on 1st day grace blakely isn't economics commentators you joined us live by skype. so we've seen a lot of volatility on the markets and these phase of recession. what are the major factors behind all of us? well, 1st, let's start with, with the market themselves, because there's a difference between what's going on in financial markets and what's going on in the real economy. really the last 10 years and last 2 years in particular, equity markets in the us, in europe and in other parts of the world have been really quite substantially over inflated as a result of money creation program by central banks that was bound to come to an end at some point, as much people as he tightened, and that is indeed what we're seeing now. so don't market leveling off from run it to the high levels as best of the just their expectation about future running. that was always going to happen, but we've had a really significant jump, obviously, with the combination of writing inflation and the ukraine war as well
12:36 am
as kind of reduced expectations about growth rates that really actually date backs up before the pandemic to that period. that followed the financial crisis where global growth was not particularly good economists. we're talking about secular stagnation. so kind of long time stack nation when looking at things like productivity and growth rate all around the world. but really, when we think about the immediate crisis and what might drive while the climate recession is the question and station, what is inflation being driven by? well, we just hide it. it's partly been food and fuel and those things are highly interrelated . rising food prices are at least in part driven by rising fuel costs. spotlight that is produced using natural gas food. the has to be transported all around the world which uses fuel and price. those are being driven up by the war itself. on top of that, we also have this crisis, but it's still ongoing and global shipping. and in the gist that holding up the supply chain bill around the world and making it difficult for goods to be moved.
12:37 am
and then when you take into account the fact that we have a big chunk of semiconductor that goes back quite a while. and the conductors go into lots of different things that actual, that cetera. and that's going to get was because ukraine is love, biggest supplier of neon, which also goes into some conducted we have this perfect storm. and it's a combination of long term stag nation. with the pandemic, the war and ukraine, anderson, stationary pressure that is being driven in part by the recovery from the pandemic . i'm really thinking about who's going to be paying about the, i mean, you mentioned the ukraine war than the effects of that that's having we've, we've seen that russia has been saying that it's only going to lift his blockade of ukraine's black seaports of sanctions against that are reviewed, how likely is it that the international committee will, in the end, have to do something about the sanctions in russia to get this of the flow of the grain and so on from, from ukraine. is that, is that slightly? while again, you know, we've seen how willing europe has been to dealing
12:38 am
with this conflict ahead of what anyone would consider to be sure. and even long term economic interests. when you look at the sanctions i've been imposed on russian energy on which europe is heavily dependent, then you already have to off this question who is going to end up paying for all of these overlapping crises. and you know, the report that you would just that you just put out before i was on, which mentioned that escalating crisis of, of funded basically and wells hunger suggest that is actually gonna be the world's poor people who are going to be forced to pay this crisis, and in that context, you know, it's hard to say the prospects all 1000000, the people who are already living in poverty, potentially solving moving the dia, when it comes to western countries. deciding whether or not sometimes sanctioned on russia, which is all determined by kind of geopolitical considerations. you know, we've had food shortages before. obviously the last time that we had significant spike in food prices was off the 2000 and financial crisis. and that has now been
12:39 am
linked fairly convincing me to the arab spraying and to lots approaches to faith around the world that we know that writing food prices are linked to political and social unwrapped. it's likely that we'll continue to see that. but whether or not it will actually move the dial in times of the way in positions of sanctions on russia. i think that is much less likely. grace blakely, thank you very much. need to thank you. taliban officials have asked afghan television broadcast to make sure all female presenters cover their faces from saturday, a spokesperson, ministry of vice, and virtue said their advice was accepted very happily. the authorities ordered all women to cover their faces in public 2 weeks ago. in a decree, reminiscent of reminiscent of the taliban hardline rule in the 1990s, the restrictions of causing anger among afghans and abroad. most afghan women where a headscarf for religious reasons. but in urban areas,
