6:03 pm
has condemned these re the strikes. he's calling on the un security council to, to be a week, what we call on this institution, to take more steps than just verbal denunciations. we called for an end to the double standards and dealing with the question of human rights and international conflicts. whether you can, if we can never accept the continued crimes against our people, our children, women and civilians, families that have lost their children and children that have lost their parents and families that has been deprived of their homes and. and a few hours ago, more than $1700.00 alto nationalist israelis added to attentions by entering the alex a mosque compound in occupied east jerusalem on the annual fasting day. we have to correspondence covering the latest developments that as your name is in west jerusalem. but 1st, let's go over to suffer the catalog. he joins us from garza. so software. first of all, what can you tell us about these reports of a cease fire?
6:04 pm
is it now confirmed that it will still egypt is talking about reaching as he is fire between islamic jihad on days that i live. but neither is luigi hard nor the israelis confirmed gyptian declaration or gypsy in that statement. in gaza there is a gyptian delegation or still running intensive contacts were islamic jihad and other palestinian foxes in order to find or to form a cease fire accepted by all the parts, but still new. there is no confirmation by either side or i. well, despite this talk overseas far, today's been a day full of more and strikes by the israelis more rocket 5 from garzo. tell us about that. one. for just a minute ago, there was a, a passing of fighting groups. their launch a barrage of rockets towards southern israel and that another is really
6:05 pm
a strike. we could cheat in the background, hit one of the residential areas we still have. we have not received more updates about the really a recent advice. but still we could shoot exclusions around her during the day from south to lot of people are always said to a calling off on asking about her the possibility of her reaching a cease fire. because the that the live in got those thought completely stopped. the humanitarian conditions are deteriorating. and i, you know, since also the power station stopped yesterday. so people live oh with only 4 hours of power. busy so the humanitarian situation is deteriorated in gaza and people are waiting and looking forward to hearing a news about sees fire. all right, we're going to thank you software. let's continue this though with natasha. her name, she's in west jerusalem for us joins us live for natasha. we got to start with the
6:06 pm
question of this sci fi. what are you hearing from israeli officials on that? is really officials are saying that ceasefire negotiations continue. a date has not been said a little bit ago. we learned that one of the crossings from gaza into israel, israel into garza, a suffered a mortar attack. the israeli government is saying that the terminal building was damaged. i mention it because the thousands of workers from gaza who go into israel and goods that come in and out will not be able to cross. and if there is still this kind of rocket fire, especially around the crossing, and clearly that's going to be one of the things that will determine whether or not a ceasefire is agreed and if it holds. but there have been indications all day that the israeli government was not keen to keep this operation. it has dubbed breaking dawn a long lasting one. the interim prime minister. yeah. your la pete has said that
6:07 pm
it's an extraordinary achievement. that's a direct quote that most, if not all of the senior leadership of the palestinian islamic jihad had been eliminated his thinking, the troops. and then a prominent journalist in israel reported that the the director of tion. bet. that's the israeli security agency. met with the cabinet today and said that islam and she had, has effectively been neutered that a kind of divide has been created between islamic jihad and hamas. with the only firing of salvos of a bombastic rhetoric. not rockets coming from asked since friday, and the thinking was, according to the ship that director, that the is israel. strategic goals had been met. it was time to end the operation before mistakes were made and at risk of a larger conflagration with is vomit. she had, there's also a concern that the greater the death toll in gaza, the greater the misery,
6:08 pm
the greater the chance that hamas may enter the fray. and that is clearly not something that the israeli government was la. pete has said that this operation was to target is summit. she had that they had evidence of an operation and an imminent attack against israel. that while it has 0 tolerance for attacks against israelis, it is not keen to enter a broader battle. israel is now facing international pressure and calls to hold the air strikes and allowed for feud foods, excuse me, allow food fuel and humanitarian aid into besieged gaza. or i'm, this comes of calls that are in front general time for is ready politics. how's it playing out? politically, by since friday, when this operation began, there has been discussion about how this operation might be politically motivated for the 5th time. in 4 years, israelis will go to the polls in november,
6:09 pm
the current coalition government collapsed in june. now there's a caretaker, government, and the prime minister. your le pete is poised to hopefully in his mind become the next prime minister. but in the meantime, former prime minister benjamin netanyahu dubbed mister security during his long tenure. he's the longest serving prime minister in israeli history. he is poised for a comeback. netanyahu has mercilessly attacked the coalition government and particularly la peed le pete is center left ideologically. he's a former journalist. he has no military background and he has often been attacked for not having any military background. this could, if you'd favorably by israelis, this operation could bolster lupita, military bona fides and in a change of direction for netanyahu. today for the 1st time since his coalition government came to power more than a year ago, he attended a security briefing. it is mandated by law,
6:10 pm
but he has been boycotting them. he did not offer praise for the operation. he said he only offered advice. thanks. so much some touch of a name, the florida spring, and now was tom's on loyalties. the palestinian ambassador to the united kingdom joins us from ramallah festival. so are you hearing anything from your diplomatic sources and whether there will be a seas fonts today? well, i'm not sure if her allo sammy, for so much or this is far as that i turned ending the israeli assault aggression is the right term. and there has been a lot of efforts with egypt and with regional powers on of course, with international powers to end this unprovoked assault, to this very murderous machine. and the security council, it is supposed to meet to moral upon the request of the state of palestine and the support of key security council members and the other members of the, of the council and the u. n. a. so we have no confirmation yet,
6:11 pm
except that the bombardment continues the targeting of civilians continues the israeli trading of our blood blood, the palestinian blood. as your reporter just said, this is just the part of starting the election campaign. early on, on garza as as happens all the time. politicians in israel compete was more palestinian blood on their, on their hands. and therefore this is an opportunity for, for all of us the palestinian people to actually unite. because this is not an issue with garza only, this is an issue with the palestinian people. you have reported what happened today in jerusalem. the storming over like some was the thousands was lady legal settlers in our more secret sites. they occupied city of jerusalem. you haven't reported what has happened again, there was bank. this is an or an all out aggression by israel assault by israel on us everywhere. whatever we are with it in the west bank was and also living garza, or even if you, she's outside. let me bring 2 of these trays had they said that this was an
6:12 pm
intervention nor to prevent a palestinian attack in their action in jeanene to arrest the santa sadie. was also because he was quote, i think she back called in a rather closing element. well, this is really a very, a very illegal term, immoral, irresponsible, and completely criminal. i mean, even in international law, occupying power or has the responsibility to protect civilians. extrajudicial killing is a war crime, and therefore you base your entire bombardment of an entire city that is gaza. that is populated by the poorest, the besieged for the last 16 years besieged by our besieged by land besieged by a c. and you bombard them every once in a while under the pretext of information. this is a very well defined war, crime. under international law, the only people who have rights here are the occupied people. they have the right to defend themselves, to defend their children, families, to defend the land,
6:13 pm
and therefore this whole talk of israel's right to, to self deter self defense and to defend itself as part of the statements, the u. k. statements, some western countries statement is simply giving israel a carte blanche, a green light to continue its murderous policies to continue its war crimes to continue the oppression of the palestinian people. and when you compare it sent me with the position regarding ukraine, then you just tell you in the face, the double standard, the hypocrisy of the international community. and i think it not only governments by the way, even international mainstream media. the way, for instance, the bbc main website today was, was headlining the issue garza, israel war garza is in conflict garza, israel violence as if there is symmetry between the 2 sides as if there are 2 armies. as if, as if a violence is perpetuated by the palestinians would in fact,
6:14 pm
as reported everywhere. it was israel who has thought of this completely unprovoked . and it isn't just or on our people in gaza. it is on that. let me jump little sam, it is, or there was a role in my you an investor gaze as june, the 7th that sighted while it called the perpetual israeli occupation as the root causes or the root cause of conflict. isn't that the reality that as long as the occupation continues, there may be a temporary pause or a cease fire, a truce. but this cycle is going to go on. yeah, and i, i think, i think the you, on has issued on under the statement. this is not just a military occupation that is perpetual, that has lasted for over 55 years, the longest and modern history. this is a colonial, a colonial occupation that is not at controlling the oppressed people that is defined a study of people, but aiming at displacing us and replacing us as, as, as happening on
6:15 pm
a daily basis. here behind us in the west bank in jerusalem and everywhere, and also as per the consensus of the international human rights organization. the loss was amnesty international as you know, so me the u. k. base is well committed, the crime against humanity or apartheid, apartheid a system of legal segregation of preferential treatment of jewish supremacy in this land against the native palestinian christians and muslims. and there are 4 years. this is the root causes of all this. the one knows it numerous un security council resolutions, numerous hundreds of view and general assembly resolutions. every single government, including in london and washington and paris, and berlin and everywhere. no where the issue lies, what does the heart of it? where does the virus? but every one looks at the fever at the reactions of the palestinian quist or to get rid of the destroyer. this is all right. let me jump in washer. let me tell him and say, even though it's quite clear when you read reports of international organizations
6:16 pm
and united nations and amnesty in human rights watch. so clearly symmetry is not the correct way to present this. there is an occupation and there is an occupy. but at the same time, the have been a criticism of some of the palestinian tactics in fine rockets at towards israeli cities that also exposes civilian life there to danger. right. but we must acknowledge, of course, all the casualties so far as conflicts have been palestinian. well that's why we the palestinian people, the policy and government, or have referred the whole issue to the international legal system, the international justice system to the i c. c, international criminal court. and we said we want to, to investigate every act that happens in the area of the state of palestine, the occupied state of palestine in garza, in the west bank in israel, selim. and guess who is blocking our efforts? of course it is israel, 1st and foremost, but allies the u. s. the. okay. the u. k. prime minister, former prime minister,
6:17 pm
are actually still current. johnson has issued the letter saying that we will prevent the palestinians from accessing the icy. see, israel will not be taken to then when a new credit, only 2 weeks later, they pushed for russia to be taken to the icy. so we won the icy to investigate and we will accept whatever the international legal system will come up with. because international lo so me is clear cut the people under oppression and occupation and colonization and apartheid and besieged by them, blockade and murder every day of our children and our inability to move or work anywhere or our denial of the very basic right. have the rights under international law to resist have the right to defend themselves. and the occupiers, on the other hand, have the absolute commitment and responsibility to protect the civilians under their occupation. and therefore, if, if the icpc takes its responsibility. if the prosecutors stop dragging their feet, we will accept whatever all in that comes from the international community. thank

6:28 pm
concerning corruption. do any of them have that strong sort of mandate or record in front of the people to, to really say have the champion of corruption? i think at this point, so the all the banks canyons and i've got 2 cuts, they can swap them out because none of them really represents what corruption is corruption. it is. it's been there for years. both of them have actually started in government before the general sentiment that we haven't been able to address this during that time. i people and he doesn't do all the positions. i would influence who help by the same time these and those back needs more to what's up it. and on the other side this you have is a tedious but on the other side, canyons while knowing where we've bought and we are up against the war and what i

6:43 pm
. you know, almost i was being trying to pass these reforms for many years. now there's a real opportunity, but it's a very complicated moment. there are very little resources available. the outgoing government left nothing due to the pandemic. and there's an international economic crisis. sen, gustavo, believer, when a patron closest allies, his, their supporters will need to be patient. but this is, i mean, the understand that when you generate so much expectation, it is very easy to for, we need to teach people that we can't do things quickly, especially in a country with so many issues like columbia is a crisis at all levels. deficits at all levels, but we must show the country in the 1st 100 days that changes on the way. and one way will be to fully implement the 2016 piece deal and stock negotiations with the remaining criminal group. you know, who was our patron ready made history winning the election?

6:45 pm
traditionally that the ab and have the access to the highest level of power. and all this is trying to be represented symbolically in the way. the swearing in ceremony will work today, which used to be of a former hassan affair with a few 100 b guests that are expected to attend the in this case, if tens of thousands of people will arrive to downtown burger plaza, like the one you see behind me where a number of stages with live music with big screen have been set up for the people to have been more than a 1000. people are also participating in the main ceremony. in central class, i believe are just a few blocks from here and will be sitting side by side with the international delegation, where they're king of spain. with 9 there for latino bank and residents in the u. s

. delegation that will be led by that samantha power that had the usa, the, the u. s. a in development, their program, all this is symbolized symbolically that was have a better one to be seen as the 1st popular government did the history uh, hold on. and how much of a challenge awaits president petra, now to deliver on promises that cover pretty much everything from levy a thing poverty rule reform, but also cutting back on that industry that provides a lot of money for the country to protect the environment. the oil industry ah, absolutely add to that the fact that better also want to fully implemented 2000 me feel that requires a number of major reform. it's hoping to start these negotiations with the remaining time group and with drug traffickers that are actually currently
6:47 pm
operating in the country. these are sky high ambitions, sky high expectations, and many are wondering just how long the honeymoon with columbia will be through will not be able to bring forward that number of these reforms quickly. look, if you talk to the server, sir, political observers and economies, they will tell you this. governments will need to prioritize and decide which of these issues. and they will be able or they'll try to tackle 1st to take to consider. this is a very difficult situation. economically, inflation is sky high at the home at the highest of the last 20 years, so it will be difficult for better to fund a lot of the social programs he's proposing. what they are hoping to do is to pass a major fiscal reform between now and the end of the year to have resources
6:48 pm
a year from now to put in place a lot of those, the social programs that, that people are expecting. a big question is, if the people are well wait for that to happen, or if they want to see or change happening quickly. the good thing for better is that politically, he has been able to build a large correlation. he has a majority, at least at the start of his government and both houses of congress. so the expectations is that we will see a lot of movements and the 1st weeks and months of his government. so we're put pushing forward the reform. thanks so much sandra. and pnc that the head of the un atomic watchdog says shelling, how does that for a z e of plant could cause a nuclear disaster? file grossi is called on all parties to show restraint around the factory keys. and moscow are accusing each other of firing. europe's largest nuclear power station,
