says is a celebration, and palestinians call a provocation. ah, these railey flag, much bought of what's known by his release as jerusalem date is a holiday. when he's ready, force is captured east through slim in 1967 during the 60 war the israel is victory for the palestinians. it's occupation in recent years though, oh, tr nationalist is really groups abusive like march to push their own agenda. i. minority opening races for right group like the harbor, use the march to call for the expulsion of all palestinians from what was once historic of palestine. and for the 1st time, public equal of the dismantling of the 3rd wholly a sight in islam the dome of the rock in the alexa moss compound. ah, lisha, public security minister, whom up our lives has allowed the march to travel through damascus gate. the halt of occupants strew slip from us. which rules the gaza strip is monitoring the

situation. requires her mercy. irma is appeared to use any means in order to stop and to do that through the 3rd of the extra mist from doing this to big mistakes. again, us all people and over for the sienna, in the luxembourg for a jerusalem. but we think that is what it is doing. no. because this therapy in this region last year, the march combined with the forced explosions of palestinians in the shape you're on neighborhood, spoke to the 11 day will on gaza. when her mass threatened israel with rockets, mitchell brock and independent israeli political consultant says along the marsh into palestinian areas is once again dangerous, or is railways to fly the flag anywhere in israel in jerusalem, eastern islam. it makes a statement is rarely sovereignty is demonstrated there by the israeli army, the israeli police, that is there and is deciding who can march,

where can they march? what flag can be flown by which people? and that's going to be a boiling point in areas outside of the old city palestinians clashed with israel. police ah, clashes also took place across the occupied westbank where these radio me use lie fire and take s against anom palestinian. well, it seems that the marches of axis excited to these righty police. oh, how they're going to come in? damascus. i have opened up another route that was never supposed to happen, or only a few his writing with this my a huge operations here with your worries. i'd wasn't a victim is ready to place, or simply i thought the marches openly chanting, hate slogans, proclaiming that this is a jewish early land. this young generation, the raft and force i believe that completely. and these people are the ones that are packing, these really government and keeping and power. and as long as that's the case,

i have very loud voice at the heart of these really government american out 0, occupied east jerusalem. they've also been demonstrations across the occupied west bank and gaza with at least 225 palestinians injured, including 20 by life fire. neither abraham has more fun. they tell with the use of live ammunition here behind us when young palestinians were coming here armed only with rock that we can say that they were even harmed. but they were met with an excessive force by the israeli forces. live ammunition was use your gas was used, which resulted in supplication of many palestinians also stung renee's as well as proper could feel bullets. we've got information from our sources engineering and also the occupied with the palestinians have to use 15 days which, which are improved wise explosive devices and the target to them and use them

against the is really, really on the and is really military checkpoints. they are so, as you can see, it's a tense situation. a lot of compound and jerusalem hold a very big importance in palestinians for to mines if they wanted to show that they are with their fellow palestinians with occupied easters. and even if they don't have permit, because they need to really military permits to even access the city and get through the checkpoint. but even if they don't have those, they want to show that they are with the palestinians, even with their, with their follow palestinians. and families and brothers and fellow people, even if they can't be with them physically. now the attorney is a member of the palestinian youth movement. she says that annual events is highly provocative. the flood march is like a theater. it happens every year and it is part of

a larger continuum of colonial violence that israel has enacted since upon the palestinian people. i would like to also point out that there are american citizens who are part of this march. and what does it mean for them to be able to go to so called israel, who exact these colonial fantasies of total eraser and obliteration of palestinian people from their context? i think the state of israel clearly and the zionist regime clearly understands how incendiary these marches are, but it is certainly more right wing, and he has a very prominent right wing based who themselves are actually calling him soft. there are calls from his base for high level assassinations against the leaders in gaza. and i think additionally, there is a lot of anxiety here under bennett's current rule, let's say,

or under his term there are emboldened by him being present in the connected. but he also is ruling and, and in leadership at a time when, you know, just 2 days ago we've seen a law pass, that is really settlers are now able to pray at alex and this absolutely is a provocation. i'll just say we're media network continues to demand a rapid, independent and transparent investigation into the killing of its journalist in the occupied westbank screen of atlanta was shot in the head by israeli forces while she was on assignment in jeanine on the day of her funeral israeli forces storm the procession and started beating mourners, causing pull bears to almost drop her casket. that didn't stop thousands of seniors for marching through occupied east jerusalem to take part in her funeral and burial . and because of the international community as condemned to kidding and continue to call for investigation of the acne was with 0 for 25 years,

a nation so courts, the families agrees with the family. but this isn't biding country. this community voted for donald trump by a margin of 15 percent. i was here and feeling degrees. i don't think it's necessary at any time, much of this town of 16000 can be found here in the center of town. ah. oh, for a song the comfort of company and shared grief. ah, oh. you've all the town square features, $21.00 white crosses, one for each of the victims of today's massacres. and now they're almost entirely obscured by the thousands of flowers that people bring by. it wasn't on president

into your house and take your gun left or, or children can't access firearms in homes because they're kept locked and unloaded . we have extreme risk protection orders to take firearms on the hands of people who are in crisis. we've banned assault weapons and high capacity magazines. and what we've seen since our organization started almost 30 years ago, we've seen a 40 percent reduction in gun violence in massachusetts. the narrative is that gun violence is an ending and that laws aren't being passed, but really on the ground in states, they are passing done laws. so even though nothings happening happening federally, we it see it all throughout the states. and the movement is growing and people are carrying more and more. i have absolute hope that we're going to get something done federally with bite in an office and that we're going to continue to make progress in the states. still to come here on al jazeera, i'm wayne hay in sue the cg, with the latest on the chinese foreign minister, 2 of the pacific, and what it could mean for the balance of power in the region. thus it's been
