a single one passed and died, and dozens were injured during the demonstrations protest as have agreed to withdraw from government buildings, but they still want the president go to buy a roger pucks that impeached or the roll bullish altogether. he fled to them all these, but as yet to formerly resign, let's go to steph fastened his life in columbus. a very bold tile day yesterday. what is the situation there like today? well, as you said, there is a curfew now in place. it was so now it's just 5 minutes before it actually was going to be in place. so people haven't heard the news or are ignoring it because it's still very busy on the streets and people are still walking in here. protests have made a statement and making an announcement right now as well here at the precedence
10:03 am
residency to empty to leave the buildings they have been occupying since last saturday. that's the day when the more than the 100000, maybe 200000 protest stormed into government buildings for president's office. the president residency to prime minister residency as well. and yesterday they also occupied the 5 minutes to the office. well, they have no side that they want to leave all these buildings because their aim was not to occupy the government buildings and they say, or aim is that the president and the prime minister was now the acting president, should step down immediately. so they're making this announcement now there were cues of people in the last couple of days getting into this building to have a glimpse of how the president and his family were living here. you remember probably to seems at the swimming pool that people were jumping in. so now i'm seeing this building and they probably will leave this building fairly soon. the protest, the se happened yesterday, the violence,
10:04 am
especially at parliament building, was not for their intention. they were not for planning to storm parliament, so they say what's happening is that there has been some kind of provocation. other groups got involved. so now they decided to regroup. the protest will definitely continue. they will still occupied the spheres of the president, secretary of that's going to be their rally and grounds. and also there was an announcement of the union rally a work of rally to take place today. so the protest will continue, but not from an occupation of government building. now, what many of these purchase is wanted was a resignation letter from the president got to buy a raj, a pox. it was promised yesterday by the speaker of the house, but that still hasn't come. how. how much is that concerning the people out on the street? well,

the feeling i'm getting now is that people are basically not believing at all anymore. that will be a resignation. letter there was some talk that's got a bio box would be in safety in his final safe position. it was that then he was going to send his resignation letter. we just heard some reports that he is now on a plane to think up for maybe going to saudi arabia. is that his final safe destination is unclear. will there be a resignation? lots of friends from there. it's unclear. so what the protests are now saying, and also to speak of parliament has suggested that he is now is going to investigate. other matches are the means to get the precedent out of office impeachment has been mentioned, the protest, i also say it an easier way maybe could be to abolish the executive power off the pass. and that's something parliament could relatively easy do because the president basically left the country and complete turmoil. that's very valid reason
10:06 am
they say. but therefore follow him attached to convene to answer a plan for a parliament session to morrow. oh, depends on of course the parties opinions, the majority and parliament is still being controlled by the president's party, the s l b b. where is this part you going to go? are they moving away from google by your box or, or not? so there's a lot of questions and a lot of movements and also legal issues that are being investigated right now. okay, for now, steph fossil left her a live in colombo. thank you. on the 2nd day of his visit to the middle east, president joe biden is expected to sign an agreement with israel to counter iran. the declaration from biden and israeli prime minister, uri le pete aims to prevent a wrong from acquiring a nuclear weapon. the president has been a steadfast supporter, if israel for decades chimney, how can reports on day one of the trip the purpose of us president joe biden's
10:07 am
trip to israel in saudi arabia is not entirely apparent. but just moments after landing in tel aviv biden made clear what he would not achieve to we'll discuss my continued support. even though i know it's not in the near term to stage delusion or remains to monitor the best way to ensure the future equal measure of freedom, prosperity, democracy for israelis and palestinians like this admission is likely to enrage palestinians as biden to set to meet with the head of the palestinian authority, mahmoud abbas on friday. palestinians are pushing for the u. s. to reopen its consulate in occupied east jerusalem limits settlement expansion, and press israel for accountability in the killing of al jazeera journalists, sharina abu ackley, who is a us citizen. such goals are a challenge with elections looming,
10:08 am
future israeli leadership is uncertain on thursday, biden meets with caretaker prime minister yar lockheed and conservative hardliner, former leader benjamin netanyahu, who may be plotting a comeback that makes the white house aim of improving israeli saudi security ties to counter chinese, russian, and iranian influence in the region, much more difficult, like him to call the u. s. administration, and it's president, want to visit the region with a motivation to create peace and stability. they should revise their foreign and regional policy with a look at public opinion across the region and change their behavior according to the realities on the ground level. one on biden is a president under pressure and in need of a foreign policy when with low approval ratings, record high inflation and congressional elections in november biden's meeting with saudi leaders. later in the week, he hopes to convince them to pump more oil,
10:09 am
to bring down record fuel prices in the united states and our relationship, but will biden seats to project american influence with his trip failure to accomplish any significant foreign policy achievements could backfire and underscore just the opposite, the declining presence and power in the middle east of the united states. kimberly help hit al jazeera doha. let's go to stephanie tucker, who was live for us in west harrison stuff to give us a bit more detail about this joint declaration. that button, unless people signed today yes, it's called the jerusalem declaration. they're due to sign this within the next 2 or 3 hours or so were expecting to hear a press conference from the 2 men and around 4 hours where they will be talking about it. they may actually sign it publicly, it's really just a reiteration of the strong bond between the united states and israel,
10:10 am
their commitment to each other. security's particular israel security. and also acknowledging that the 2 countries will do everything to prevent iran from making and acquiring and nuclear weapons. so it is, you know, pretty much nothing new. i think we can say when it comes to the intentions of both countries, but they will be signing this together and making a very public statement about this. iran, of course, very much on the agenda of this visit by the u. s. president, and he's going to be taking that message to saudi arabia as well that something he's traveling on to a tomorrow. i think interestingly, certainly today in the media here, one article calling it simple headline. one word boring saying that he really did come here with not very much, but something at a time that israel perhaps did need because of controversial trips before. like for example, u. s. president donald trump. so yes, we're not expecting any major announcements today. i'll be meeting with the or la pete. he'll be meeting with these ready president of the next couple of hours and also 15 minutes allocated to the opposition media,
10:11 am
benjamin netanyahu. it's interesting, you mentioned donald trump because under trump u. s. policy very clearly tilted towards israel and then there was a lot of relief within the palestinian camp when joe biden came to power. but not a lot necessarily has changed with u. s. policy. so how do the palestinians feel about this visit? yes, i think interestingly, even today the reaction and the information coming out of the u. s. officials that the policies in the americans haven't been able to agree on a joint statement present. biden is meeting the palestinian present mahmoud abbas to morrow in bethlehem and the occupied west bank. they will be issuing separate statements. also, we understand that the palestinians not happy with the word spoken by us president joe biden at the time. i have been grin yesterday where he really only very briefly referred to the 2 state solution being the best way forward. but saying that this was a long term ah, you know, realizing how difficult it was. this is not why he is here and the palestinians
10:12 am
know this. and as you mentioned, arch a trust has been eroded under trump. this administration, yes, it's increased monetary funding. we're going to see more of this tomorrow to the palestinians, but nothing when it comes to diplomatic moves, it's economic move. so this is an issue. and also, you know, they want accountability for the killing of our, our colleague shitty and a blacklist something that also the americans recently seemed to have pushed aside accusing israel. but more than likely, of having killed her. but saying it wasn't unintentionally and pretty much saying, you know, they were tragic circumstances so that miss fear not conducive to major trust at the moment and the policy and expecting nothing other than you know, a couple of $1000000.00 out of the visit of the u. s president. thank you for that, stephanie deck of efforts in west jerusalem. libby as oil chief as refusing to accept the government's decision to sack him as arguments heat up over which of the countries 2 administrations should have access to oil revenue. libya's national oil
