5:05 am
a violation and disregard for all the efforts that have been made over the past days in order to restore him comp, positively with these efforts that the enemy was as usual treacherous. these rarely action followed the closure as to port your crossings with because this trip earlier in the week and the arrest a senior islamic you had members in the occupied west bank and the office of the palestinian president mahmoud abbas called friday attack a dangerous escalation. the un cushioned against further civilian casualties, while egyptian mediators are trying to diffuse the tension between both sides. but this is calisha and it's something that we have seen time and time again. hearing garza and the heaviest price is always paid by the people. you may see al jazeera got this city john homan has more from occupied is to select the israeli military says that now there's 120 rockets been launched into the country
5:06 am
so far. we're not him. of any reports of injuries. on the israeli side, a lot of those rockets being stopped by the iron dough, which is the israeli system against rocket to stop them even in the air. and those that have landed seem to have done so in areas where they haven't been able to to hurt anyone. there are other countries weighing in on this and other organizations. the united states is one of the earliest, a tweet from the ambassador is ro, saying that the united states firmly believes the israel has a right to protect itself. we're engaging with different parties and urge sides for come. so that was seen as quite firmly citing with the, with israel in the jewel damian foreign minister, the country li, just to the east took a different tone calling for an end to the condemned israeli aggression against the gaza strip. and the un also the special coordinator for the middle east peace
5:07 am
process. also waited and said that he was deeply concerned the palestinian presidencies cold in the international community to press israel to stop its attacks on garza and to provide protection for people there. hundreds of people protested in ramallah to show their support for the people that garza tensions have been high in the occupied westbank. after months of raids by israeli security forces are correspondent me to abraham has more. the palestinian presidency has condemned de escalation, calling a dangerous calling upon the international community to intervene to stop what they called it. these rainy escalation. also we heard from the palestinian prime minister, how much the you're talking about the escalation saying, it's israel that started this week. people to enter love, go out in the throughout the protest. calling for unity calling for retaliation.
5:08 am
we've also seen a 10 situation in jeanine in the north will be occupied with bank. this is we're a sam excited to senior plumbing. she had the there was arrested from and janine itself has been the epicenter of our coverage and has been the center of attention in the past few months as these really would have been conducted almost nightly and daily. we to the outskirts of the refugee camp fear we know that there are armed men, they are in the camps. there are estimated at the lower 100. they will be fight and engaged in armed confrontations would be through the courses when they twice to enter the refugee camp and arrest people fear. and we've also seen those armed men yesterday going and showing a 4th in the camp holding weapons. because as we know, ever since israel has arrested the south side, the from jeanine on monday, the climate g has, has raised its level of alert,
5:09 am
has told its all members to be ready to europe, to basically make israel page, which is the terminology that they've been using for arresting senior flemming to had the that with them aside the from the us national security spokesmen, john kirby says israel has the full support of the united states a solution. of course we remain committed to a. busy to that, but we still want to see that the outcome both sides have to want to in washington . jordan has more than the reaction in washington d. c. the bind administration is also reaching out of what it calls the relevant
5:10 am
parties, asking them to try to calm the situation, to not aggravate attention and to try to was stop of the of violence that has been erupt in. i'm in is in southern israel. and in the gaza strip a old day on friday and into the overnight the by didn't ministration, of course is a very much committed to a 2 state solution, but it has also been a very clear and we saw this when the u. s. president joe biden was in israel and occupied west bank recently that he knows that the situation is not at a place where the parties couldn't negotiate in good faith on trying to achieve a separate palestinian state. it's not just that of the biden administration isn't going to engage with hamas, or with as long as law mich jihad, that has been the policy of previous a u. s. administration. but the usaa government under joe biden has been rather explicit in its view that these organizations are proxies for iran. you're just not
5:11 am
going to see u. s. officials engaging with hamas, or with islamic jihad. what you are going to seeing is engagement with the palestinian authority and its president buffalo to boss. you're going to see an engagement, of course, with the israeli government. and you're going to see engagement with other parties in the region with egypt with jordan, with other countries that may be able to bring indirect influence upon hamas and islamic jihad. but you're not going to see the americans doing it themselves. that's just an odd starter for this venice is a fellow of the institute for policy studies and she says the united states continues to be a very strong supporter of israel. it sounds very consistent with what we can expect from the u. s. if they haven't said it yet, they're going to say something like that very soon. i have no doubt. there is this constant sense of yes, we call on both sides to tamp down. but we respect israel's right of self defense.
5:12 am
which 1st of all is not even an issue here because there was no attack that israel was responding to. it was responding to what it said could have been an attack. we expected there might be an attack. and therefore, we have the right to do anything we want, including violations of international law, such as collective punishment. the failure to distinguish between civilian and military targets. among the, the 8 people at least, that have been killed. so far. i was a 5 year old girl and a 23 year old woman. the others. we don't know yet who they were. but this notion of protecting israel's rights to do whatever it chooses against the palestinians where the palestinians have no such rights. despite president biden's rhetoric on his trip where he said that his goal is a situation in which palestinians and israelis have equal access to security prosperity, et cetera. there is no action. the u. s. takes that treats them as equals. it
5:13 am
treats the israelis as the only country with rights. when our divisions, middle east coordinators called for the escalation of the fighting process of him, he has more form that you are in new york. there can be no justification for attacks on civilians. those are the words of middle east coordinator toward venice land in response to the recent attacks in gaza. he noted that a 5 year old child is among the dead and expressed concern that this escalation between palestinian militants and israel. and what he described as the targeted killing of the palestinian islamic jihad leader could further exacerbate tensions in the region intentions, which have been growing and brewing not only in gaza, but also across the west bank. and of course, it's the united nations that gets called in to pick up the pieces after conflicts like this in the occupied territories. and he expressed concern that civilians will
5:14 am
ultimately be the ones who pay the worst price at a time when international support and international funding to help in situations like this is stretched very thin. so a word of caution from the middle east coordinator words released on twitter and in statements to the media calling on both sides to tone down their response and protect civilians still hadn't al jazeera, today's new constitution supposed to unite to its people. but paul suggest a majority may vote to reject it. on ferdinand macos junior has been president of the philippines for just a few weeks. spots is in from his father, is grabbing headlines with 2 movies telling very different stories. ah, richard, he has begun the faithful world copies on its way to the castle route. you will

5:17 am
ah, you want to go to 0 reminder of our tops or is this our israel's attack, the gaza strip and armed fighters have responded racing fears of a full scale conflict. palestinian islamic jihad says, is far more than a 100 rockers. that is really cities. the 1st is really air strikes, had a high rise tower and gases city. one of those killed was taisha, also body. a commander of the are hoods brigades. it's the military arm of palestinian islamic jihad at least 10 others have also died including a 5 year old girl. us secretary of state antony lincoln's meeting, the philippines president fountain and marcos junior are expected to discuss
5:18 am
several issues including tensions between the us and china. blank, and the said that the u. s. is committed to a mutual defense treaty with the philippines. marco said the current geopolitical environment shows how important their ties are. tie one's defense. ministry says it's fired flavors to warn offset. we're 7 drones and unidentified planes flying over its territory. tensions remain high with china, which is furious over the visit to taiwan by us house speaker dancy pelosi. they're giving individual plans the international editor of ty, one plus, and she's joining us on skype from taipei good to have you with us. so the military activity by china seems to be affecting ty, ones, outlying islands. now why is that significant? that's right, so the islands that these unidentified aircraft and drones were identified on our scene on which ty, one's military, you fired flares to warn off our inhabit is the islands and the islands on the taiwan straits,
5:19 am
which are some of the closest to the chinese mainland kenman in particular, where those drawings flew over is only about 10 kilometers from mainland china. and i believe that would be the 1st point of contact. should there be an invasion? now these military exercises are continuing, not just around those outlying islands, but also in those waters closer to the main islands of taiwan and the ministry of defense. us troops here are remaining on high alert and we're having, i think it to day 3 of these chinese military exercises jaila people in till i one feeling about things is this is clearly not something that is gonna end anytime soon. no, that's right. and there is a concern if you speak to defense analysts here, the china will just keep extending them originally. they said it was 3 days. then they extended it in to monday was present on sunday. and the general feeling here is that the main reason china is carrying out these exercises is 2 prong. one is because they want to warn off and give us send
5:20 am
a clear message over their sovereignty, or were taiwan saying that you shouldn't step out of line in china claims time one as part of its own territorial that's i. one is, has its own government runs itself and acts pretty much as an independent nation. the 2nd reason analysts here are saying that china is conducting these exercises. and particularly because of the weights surrounded tiwana, essentially locating it is because they want to see what it would like and check their strategy if they should conduct an invasion of the future. and they want to see how effective their drills will be to v a thank you very much and did, did via gopal on international editor of time, one plus all touching fog as a journalist based in beijing, he says, china's following through and his warning of consequences following nancy pelosi visit, so we'll state media citing analysts broke down what some the diplomatic counter measures were about to day on the issue of the cancellation of military level
5:21 am
dialogue. that said that the u. s. had failed to hear china's warning for nancy pelosi not to go to taiwan. and that as a result, mutual trust between the 2 militaries had dive to a new lo and also noted that president biden had made significant diplomatic progress on climate change. but the u. s. wouldn't be able to achieve anything on its own. meanwhile, the chinese embassy in washington are said that the only way out of this crisis was for the u. s. to rectify its mistakes, and that it was the u. s. that is the trouble make and warned against take him relations down the track of conflict and confrontation. the war games are set to continue to day. china had in particular, notably across the median lines several times over the last couple of days. and analysts are fearing that this could be a new norm for the p l. a. in future exercises a jury in texas is ordered. conspiracy theorist alex jones to pay $45200000.00 and
5:22 am
what are called punitive damages. jones falsely claimed the sandy hook, school shooting was a hoax. the n 4 wars host had been ordered to pay more than $4000000.00 in compensation to the parents of a child killed in the shooting in 2012. jesse louis, his parents said jones comments, la to years of emotional distress and harassment for them, including death threats, supporters of iraq's, she idly them outside. i have held mass friday, prayers, and several cities sada, urged his supporters to continue their sitting in front of parliament until those he calls corrupt politicians are removed from office when the walk had reports from baghdad. yeah, thousands of iraqis to an out in the green zone for a friday miss prayer and protest. they're mostly supporters of influential shea at the leader of the southern, some in the crowd. call it over, lucian. done
5:23 am
a lot at the well thought to be iraq has been controlled by corrupt politicians, through consecutive governments. the quite system resulted in the deterioration of the health care system, education and security. poverty is on the rise, but corrupt officials getting richer every day. drugs and weapons are spread everywhere because of those authoritarian parties affiliated to foreign powers. what me when m many have travelled here from different parts of iraq in the hopes of getting their voices heard. iraq has had on the occasion ticket government for the last 9 months, and many basic services have been interrupted, a shabby, it's just a lot more harder. linbeck dot com. we've come here from the chart. cabella had cut and bubble sheet sunni curds christians. and as it is all to say no to the constitution drafted by the americans, while we will not leave until portable is dissolved when these protesters highlight
5:24 am
the months of political estate, me to form a government since last october's general elections. so that his supporters have been occupying parliament in protest in a televised statement. so that urged his supporters to continue their sin. i suggested dissolving parliament and holding early elections as a solution to the political deadlock. ha ha. the prayers coincide with southern supporters leaving the parliament building after one weeks it in. but they have been instructed to stay on the ground the surrounding parliament with out of no letters on mister wall. we are planning to continue here until we toppled the re jame. no matter what it takes, we have nothing to lose more than what we have already lost. our country is in ruins. the you and the special representative to iraq. disney plus heart has met
5:25 am
smoked at a souther in. now jeff, she's been coated by local media saying the meeting was productive. but some of said was rival politicians pause a challenge including former prime minister marie l. mckee and the head of the popular mobilization forces fell hell for yard. both men insist holding early elections requires the formation of a new government. because iraq's case take a government doesn't have the legal right to hold another election. which means millions of iraqis may be facing many more days of uncertainty. i'm with up to do a head and vizier beaudet the latest opinion polls in chile such as voters will reject a new constitution in a referendum next month. some are blaming a disinformation campaign for the apartment opposition. mathematica editor the see a newman course. yes, it's the final count down to a new draft constitution that was meant to unite chileans. abra with
5:26 am
a copy of the proposed magna carta in hand. he's volunteers sing, let's go. we must win and vote approval or a proof in september's decisive referendum. but the other thing that if you get a muscle, we won't change because our current constitution written under a dictatorship was bad. the smell will give us better health, education, pensions, and recognition from diginero nations. ah, yet the new constitution is seen by many as to radical and divisive even by some chileans on the center and central left. oh, less joined together without hatred of you know, without fear, with hope to say it on not this one. no. good. even before the draft constitution was finished last month, it was the target of an unprecedented campaign of disinformation promoted by those
5:27 am
who oppose major proposed changes to chili's political, any good nomic systems. the purpose is to actually make you believe something that is not true. i will say that probably there is an additional intent and it's to make you distrustful, not only of youth, but about everything. disinformation fed on social and traditional media has spread fear that chileans will no longer own their own homes. that indigenous nations will have more rights than everyone else, and the justice system will lose all its independence. even the independent electoral board has come under attack on social media, presumably by extreme right wing groups. he only with outdoor people, they've invented all sorts of lies about the preliminary results and undocumented foreigners being able to vote. but many believe it. this is now chillies, number one, best seller containing the nearly 400 articles of the proposed constitution. but it's not exactly easy reading,
5:28 am
and much of it is open to interpretation. all of which facilitates misinterpretation and confusion. add to this, the very credible reports that freight copies of this constitution are circulating on the streets in the mid to spread this information. and you have an issue that is most explosive and polarizing. what are the televised campaigns segments that give equal time to both sides may be crucial to the constitutions, passage or failure topic. they mumble, son, emotionally, everywhere in the world, an election campaign appeals to emotions. it will be the same with this official tv campaign segment for this referendum. the b o emotional effects and information over this information will likely be the deciding factors and chiles, immediate, and long term future. to see a newman al jazeera santiago. okay, let me take you back to the philippines because
5:29 am
a new film has been released about the late philippine leader fed, an and marco senior who presided over widespread human rights abuses his son is the current president critic say the film is yet more white washing of history, bonner below, as more from manila we have finally a movie depicting the 1986 people's uprising that toppled the government of ferdinand marcus inside the presidential palace from the perspective of demarcus. the film is showing just months after the election of the former leader, son, president, ferdinand marcus junior. it is being promoted as a true story, but historian, se clothes that have been circulating on line had not been consistent with the established truth. this scene shows then opposition leader corazon aquino, who later restored democracy as president nonchalantly playing manual. while a revolution was raging, crossing the line, it's really, it's, it's really hard to say. but the invention is very clear to me already,
5:30 am
especially with the same way back when i saw latino just saying, you know, very, very closely get them out of the philippines. and then boasted b, i. b junk table with the elder marcos ruled for 21 years, amassed an estimated $5.00 to $10000000000.00 worth of unexplained wealth and was responsible for tens of thousands of wrongful imprisonments, torture, and killings. according to human rights advocates, none of this was in the movie one another film about his administration. however, open on the same day. a tips is about student activism and how the marcus government then responded with brutality. our corporate here isn't only 20 more important and is not here to educate people and he's 3 something which is for forgotten already was the story that and revise. so we really need to.
