witnesses and families. a warning, some of the images in her report. distressing that just 4 years old jameel had already experienced war. his 16 year old cousin had lived through 4 of them. they didn't survive a visit to their grandfather's grave. la 5 children were killed in the cemetery in job belly, a refugee camp on sunday, all but one of them from the same family as well as i've been on this symmetry. these rallies hit is like a pack for our children in our religion. we consider it as a final resting place. there is no security for our children. i ask the international community to pressure israel to stop killing our children. this witness says he saw the explosion, as the boy sat around the grave site. la la la, just a few seconds after they passed me, i heard the sound of an arm drone hit,

the children. it was quiet. there was nothing going on in the cemetery. it was safe . then i looked up and found the children dead mobile, the previous day, 4 children in the camp were killed, som, as they went to bye treats from a market, barely an adult and an only child. colleen abu commodity was hoping to marry sue and give his parents grand children shout. now who knew? shaheed? we could all be martyrs. almost every year we have war a massacres. when helene was born, i had the feeling he would and live long, but i never expected. he would die this way. witnesses a, the damage to these cars and the force of the explosion are consistent with israeli airstrikes over the years. the israeli military says 200 of the rockets fired by palestinian islamic he had misfired and some civilians were killed. it says the incident i valley a cemetery is still being investigated. but the 1st incident,

which killed 4 children, was the result of an errant rocket fired by the armed group. no one here believes that messiah. it's not true, i saw with my own eyes. these are really rocket from the roof off my home. the israel is masika, my son there is no doubt to the palestinian groups are not responsible for the job . a lay, a refugee camp last 9 boys in this latest round of violence with israel during their short lives. they experienced the terror and loss of war. after war, with no chance of a peaceful childhood, natasha named el jazeera, gaza. well al jazeera senior political analyst now and be shara joins us now live from paris. good to see you. my one. we have on the one hand to cease fire concluded on sunday, between israel and one faction of palestinians in gaza,

a little more than 24 hours later. israel kills the commander of another faction in the west bank. what's going on here? is there an overarching strategy? by israel absolutely no, there's hardly anything missouri does that is have hazard when it comes to. ready our military operations, but i would just also like to add her in terms of the ceasefire. it history tells us that israel uses cease fires simply as means are towards a more of the same. it's sort of our war by other means if you will, because the blockade and the reads and, and the assassination and song, so forth. it all continue or whether there is with there isn't a ceasefire. but in terms of israel strategy, he want gets the sense over the last several months that his read has thinking the

decision on a number of fronts, including iran, syria and lebanon, as well as and especially palestine. that it will be taking an aggressive pre emptive strategy to words or all those it deems to be a threat to israel. and by that i mean more than just the classic pre emption. it's more like prevention, meaning if there isn't an immediate threat, it will still take action for long term goals. and here in the case of palestine, it seems to be that israel wants to take all the military action possible in order to impose a political solution. on the palestinians are which means that, that they could go for annexation. they could go for a certain position if and when i that, that but a city and president is no more. there certainly preparing the ground to separate the garza from the west bank and both from jerusalem. and it cleared out the

occupied territories from any potential resistance. and what about palestinian strategy? my one that doesn't seem to be one, at least not an apparent one politically divided groups with different motivations, different agendas, no apparent attempt to the united front. yes. for that, that being, it seems so although there were signs, for example, in gaza that or whatever action at this time it she had took, it was coordinated with the other groups, notably the dominating faction, hamas that while hamas did not but dissipate that the, it was coordinating, and it is clear now that there are some declarations are within the west bank that they are getting up towards something perhaps unifying their efforts simply because israel has been talking it in all of them except separately. and i think now it

seems that the time for them to start thinking at united action. now, if they don't, something else is getting up, jonah, and that is the street. i'm the public opinion feels clue isolated. they feel desist pirated. they feel that there is no potential for a diplomatic solution, especially after biden's visit to the area when you told them, don't expect anything. and when israel continues with them, what are the same pressure? it seems to be that sort of are closing in and that absence of any hope of a breakthrough is pushing the palestinians more and more to words. what could be a 3rd intifada? if you look at what just happened the last 24 hours, you see there's more and more restless. population basically boiling over towards some sort of inaction, feeling the desperate feeling broken, feeling the need to do something. if the international committee has not been when

a thing regional partners are longer, the within the united states not handle anything. and israel continues with thought at infinity that they must make their voice heard within that their thirty's, but also to the international community. marlin bushera in paris, we'll leave it there. thanks very much. ah. polls have closed in kenya's tightly contested presidential and parliamentary elections. the ballots are now being counted. voting has been largely peaceful but turn out is expected to be around. 60 per cent. results aren't expected for several days. canyons of voting for senators, governors, lawmakers, woman representatives, and some 1500 county officials, as well as their next leader. katherine sawyer reports from cartoon due in central kenya. voters arrived early to cast their ballots. technical and

logistical problems were reported at some polling stations. what does will come out? well as expected and every 100 who to increase but overall voting went smoothly. members of the messiah community wore their traditional clothing as they waited patiently line. i'm expecting that is i, there is going to be peace that people are gonna are going to let the leaders of their choice. they lead us that they know they are going to, even in the economy of this country. deputy president william router voted in his home county in the rift valley. he's one of the front runners for the presidency. i feel very good that after so many months of campaigning and like freaking to the people of kenya and failing our agenda. and our manifesto and

having discussions across the country this morning. it's d d, he's rival opposition leader. i low dingo voted at appalling station in nairobi, accompanied by scores of support. his outgoing president who kenyatta voted in central kenya, after falling out with his deputy kenyatta has back to dingo to succeed him. leave you collection will be free, and it is every, every canyon's hope that that is the way it shall be. do you also? absolutely. ah, some analysts say canyon's want politicians to focus on issues like the economy. most of the people we have spoken to share the same concerns. the cost of living is very high. people have no jobs. they're worried about corruption. they hope their new leadership will make things better. the high cost of living. it is something

that to lead to the tenants at your place and being jobless western ended up with want them to improve one economy, financially, hospital and even food needed those things. those are necessity in life. kenya has a history of election balance this year, voters, they, they hope the outcome of the polls reflect the true will of the people. catherine's soil, all jazeera nairobi still to come on, al jazeera, burying the dead with nothing more than a number. you cried molds, its unidentified civilian victims, simulating its defense against the chinese attack. tie one stands up to its superpower neighbor. ah

or a common end to another heat wave for england and france how they're every one. but this one's not going to be as bad as the last one we saw a few weeks ago. that's because we're tapping into some air from the mid atlantic. last time around, we had that plume of heat coming up from africa, so i don't think we're going to see a 40 degree reading, but here's the next 3 days for london, the heat wave criteria across the u. k. so it varies between 25 to 28 degrees. so yet we're there. and by saturday, a good 10 degrees above average in london. now where we do have some rain and showers, thunderstorms through the balkans, it's kicked down temperatures in bucharest to a high of 28 degrees breezy through the black sea, the boss for us. so for example, is stan bowl looking at wind gust pretty close to about 50 kilometers per hour on wednesday there's a wildfire burning in central portugal, but i think little relief coming. may see a sprinkle the shower but better bet i don't think that we will. and then look at

this batch of what weather around this part of molly long, the border with burkina faso, some downpours there and for southern africa, the western cape. a weak disturbance. roland in here. it's going to generate a just a few showers for cape town. may see the winds pick up just a little bit with a high of 16 degrees. ok, that's it for me. catch up with you later. ah. the 1960s, the decade of change across the middle east and north africa in this kind of a 3 part series al jazeera world, explores the explosion of arts and culture. intellectuals were building new dreams . an idea that because the revolutions of the 1960 s were not political, but all the mining from music to t v, the poetry of protest and revolutionary for making the 60s in the arab world culture. oh, now jazeera lou

. the me welcome back. a reminder of the top stories here on al jazeera israeli forces of killed a senior commander of alex amount as brigades of palestinian armed group resisting israeli occupation. thousands of mourners filled the streets of novels where abraham level sea was killed. being counted in kenya's tightly contested presidential and parliamentary elections, the 2 presidential front runners of former prime minister right at the dinner and the current deputy president william router. but voter apathy could be a deciding factor in the race route. matessa joins us live now

from elder at that's in western, kenya. how are you in election taking place at the time of great difficulty for many kenyans or high food prices? a deep in equality, worries about corruption and so on. and yet it seems many didn't even registered to take part in this election and turn out was extremely low. why was that? well, you know, when you went to the campaign rallies, you saw a lot of young people at the stadiums and politicians really try to appeal to them . they spoke to them and slang. they use catchy slogan. they played hip hop and rap music. and all of these young canyons that we saw on the stadium seem happy to go to these rallies and get the free t shirts and the freebies. but when it came to actual voting day, some of them did not show up to vote. some of them didn't even register to vote, and dr. young people, so the older people didn't do that either. not the combination of many things could

be going on. can you has a history of post selection violence? kenya has a history of people pulled. they could be according to some analysts that some kenyans don't have much faith in the process anymore. how much hope is that that this election will result in a government that is able to meet the concerns and problems that many kenyans face . you know, with kenyan elections, it's been basically a lot of the same faces recycled over and over again. i mean, for example, with william, brutal and loading guy, they participated in the 2050 election that led to post election violence. we, more than a 1000 people were killed in 2017 election. there was a big issue with that. that is also defeated. the supreme court ordered a re run, came back to then go back again and vote it frustrated. many, many, many people. and then when one person i spoke to was interesting, he said to me,

you know what, if a lot of old men that we've seen campaigning or promising at all these things, i see my parents who are still struggling economically. nothing has changed for them. so what makes you think things will change for me? i mean, of course, there are people who believe in the process, but they are people in kenya who are frustrated and say they feel disillusion from western kenya algiers. horrible task. so thanks howard. now a u. s. court has ruled that a house of representatives panel has the right to see former president donald trump's tax returns the ways and means committee sued in 2019 to force the disclosure of the tax returns. a federal appeals court now says the panels request was justified and rejected arguments bundled donald trump's lawyers that the records should be withheld. the ruling comes a day after the f. b. i reportedly such the former president's florida home. let's

get more from our white house correspondent now. kimberly how kit. kimberly good to see the f. b i has declined to provide any reason for each search of trumps mar logo. oh, pretty unprecedented stuff. this. what's been the reaction? well, the reaction from conservatives, especially, has been swift. there have been a quarter chorus of product republicans lining up to defend the president saying that this is not only unprecedented, but the this will have reverberations for years and even presidency to come. now asked about this in just the last few moments. the white house press secretary, courage on pierre, responded saying that the white house was not given any advance. notice that the former president donald trump mar lago home would be rated by the f b i. and instead she's referring all questions about this matter to the justice department. so democrats clearly not wanting to talk about this, but republicans certainly are including the former president, donald trump,

himself. he released a video on the social network platform known as true social, where he said we are a nation that weapon, isaac, his law enforcement against the opposition party like never before, and then suggesting he may run for president in 2024. he says the best is yet to come, and this is really as sort of the echoes, what many of his defenders are saying as well, including his attorney who has been speaking out on his behalf, saying that essentially the view is of most republicans that this is really the sort of evidence that the president remains so popular despite the ongoing investigations, not only throughout his presidency, but after his presidency. that what is happening is politically motivated to prevent him from running for president once again. and amongst all that more legal trouble. as i was mentioning earlier for the former president, losing an appeal to keep his tax returns secret. that's right there. it is

customary, although it is not an obligation by dave. throughout modern history, o presidents have released their tax returns to show transparency to the american voters, with one exception. donald trump, donald trump promised to release them, but never did. and so there has been a quest since 2015 to try and obtain those tax returns. as the president, making lengthy excuses through his attorneys and legal processes, the latest effort has been by the house ways and means committee that has now won that battle, at least for now i, they are expecting to have though, as a result of a court decision. these returns turned over to them. they say immediately, but here's the thing. there is an opportunity for donald trump to appeal this decision. once again, even as far up to the supreme court. and if you remember, the supreme court is stacked by a number of political appointees or appointees rather by donald trump, himself 3 in fact, and leans conservative. so certainly this is

a decision that we expect the u. s. president. former us president will challenge kimberly alcohol in washington dc for us. thanks. kimberly powerful explosions have rocked a russian air base in the annexed crime in peninsula killing at least one person. several others were injured in the blasts. witnesses say they heard at least 12 explosions from the saki base on crimea, western coast. the russian defense ministry has denied an attack, took place. it says the explosions were caused by the detonation of ammunition critical to the we have enough ambulances, today's being provided here, some help to our colleagues from the ministry of defense is being provided, complete. the cases could have spread over quite a long distance, obviously. now the situation is under control. we will evacuate only residents of

building, which is situated close to the drone. we are reaching out to them, none of which i see. we are assessing the amount of damage on the site, but the main committees will be working tomorrow. ukrainians have held funerals for 15 and identified people killed during rushes, months long assault of butcher. these are people who no one came to identify barry or at all buried without a name or had any family present. russia has been accused of war crimes in butcher the towns deputy mess as more than 400 civilians were either fatally shot, tortured or bludgeoned to death. john henry reports from butcher. you know, these are the forgotten victims of boucher 15 civilian bodies have gone unclaimed since a battle that ended march 31st. all of them civilians. some of them shot with a single bullet in their head. their crime authorities say was that they were

civilians of fighting age. all men and ukrainian authorities say what happened here was a war crime. we are waiting for the trial for every killa, whole was shooting in civilians on the territory of which a community and for every person in kremlin in moscow who gave the order. because we see the scale of these skillen. and of course, those soldiers and officers who will st. he'll during the month, they had this order to kill civilians. al jazeera visited the victims once before about a month ago, but since then, no one has claimed them. it remained in a refrigerated truck and identified their dna not matched. and now you're being buried not with a name, but with a number. but people here say, while their identities might be lost, no one will forget what happened here. us police say they have detained the primary

suspect in the killing of for mostly men in the city of albuquerque. the local police chief says officers found a vehicle believe to be involved in the murders which occurred over the past 9 months. the driver is the main suspect. the 1st killing happened in november and 2 victims were members of the same musk. now a day after china announced it was extending its biggest military drills. taiwan has carried out its own live fire exercises to simulate defending the island against a possible attack. tension has escalated since us house speaker nancy pelosi visited type pay last week. a move beijing called a provocation, saying basra b as more now. beijing's one china policy could make conflict about the future of taiwan inevitable. and this is what it might look like. on tuesday, taiwan began life fire drills to showcase the self proclaimed island nation's

defensive power. days after some of the largest military exercises china has ever conducted shiloh used the drilled. it is military play work to prepare for the invasion of pie one. it is contacting large scale military exercises and missile launches as well cyber attacks. this is what mation campaign and common core ation came to weaken public more real. in taiwan. type a says it won't be intimidated even as china breaches the unofficial median line down the taiwan strait. the we need to counter the blockade imposed by the chinese military. and today's exercise, it's a let china know that we are prepared. i hope both sides can exercise your strength . fighting a war is not good for the ordinary people. just send me the top officials from both sides or odds. we are just ordinary people and there's nothing we can do. if anything happens in the future, we can't do anything either will be. the latest flexing of muscles follows us. how

speaker nancy pelosi is visit to type pay a show, a support for taiwanese independence. the china says directly contravene beijing's historical claim to the island. the u. s, position china is using the diplomatic visit to pick a fight. clearly, the p r c is trying to course taiwan. clearly they are trying to course the international community. and all i say is we're not going to take the bait and it's not going to work. so it's manufactured crisis that, that doesn't mean we have to play into that. i think it would only play to beijing advantage. what we'll do instead is to continue to fly to sale and to operate wherever international law allows us to do so. and that includes in the taiwan strait and we will continue to stand by our allies and partners in, in the region. the war games have disrupted shipping and air traffic in a region crucial to global trade.
