and he's very good at stopping into the cold. confounded people across the country, informed opinions. we will say more of these. what is happening is that climate change it making them work in depth analysis of live days, global headlines draw. he is credited by some way where they were storing italy's credibility this critics would say he couldn't play the part of a politician. what do you think went wrong inside story on al jazeera? the important thing if you were walking around in beirut was not to be in the line of fire from the holiday. the last we heard gunshots, i was the 1st one to flee the halter. the battle lasted 3 days and 3 nights and there were no prisoners at the in control the holiday inn and you control the region around. and that's why it was such a bloody battle. an icon of conflict at the heart of the lebanese civil war, beirut, holiday in more house on al jazeera. ah,

this is al jazeera. ah, hello, i'm emily anglin. this is the news now alive from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes. russia is accused of stealing electricity from ukraine by connecting the separation nuclear plants to crimea. the u imposes and embargo on russian call. we'll look at how it's affecting europe's power consumption. donald trump has refused to answer questions under oath in new york is part of a long running investigation into his business dealings. and al jazeera visits a refugee camp in garza, where palestinian say is riley strikes have killed at least 9 children in sport. it's official. the african super league has been launched. $24.00 of the continents best clubs will compete for a $100000000.00 in price money. ah,

we begin this news hour in ukraine where there are fees over the fate of europe's biggest nuclear power plant. let's take a look at the map russian forces and they separatist allies. they're in control of all of these areas. in ret, i include this apparition, nuclear plant, the ukrainians. a warning that the russians are preparing to connected them facility with crimea, which they annexed in 2014. the plant has come under attack several times over the past week. the un nuclear watchdog is warning of a nuclear disaster. john henderson reports from keith in petro coach and says ukraine separation nuclear plant faces a serious danger of radioactive milk down. he says, he believes the russian military occupying the plant is shelling it to disconnect it from the ukrainian power grid and reconnected to

a power system in russian controlled crimea. taking all the power with it. they have already cut 3 of the 4 connections to the ukrainian grid he says, and if they sever the 4th, that poses a serious nuclear risk is a risk or full, losing the external power through the plan. and it is dangerous because the gilbert a blackout mold answer will be certain diesel generator. so if they stop zone, you will have, like melton of a nuclear coral reactors. he's asking for the plant to be declared a demilitarized zone monitored by the international atomic energy agency. out of control of the russian army, the foreign ministers of the g 7 group of industrialized nations agree. they say it's russia is presence of that plant that is endangering it. and they've issued a statement demanding that russia leave and turn over control to ukrainian

authorities. the russians in turn blamed the ukrainians for putting the plant at risk by firing on the facility. britton's defense ministry predicts the invasion is about to enter a new phase with the heaviest, fighting shifting 350 kilometers to the front line that stretches from separation to hear song nearby and battle scarred mc alive residence have emerged from a 50 for our curfew. they've come out to queue up for water and food in a region that's been the target of russian bomb since the invasion began in february. let me list that t k is among the thousands of displaced people evacuating ships, ship cova, village near her son. now, under russian control, the daily bombardment is taking its toll from you for your finish. i don't know, of course, people are afraid, but everyone is hoping that they will not reach us and things will get better. but many houses in our village are destroyed and people have died. there are a 150000 people in the city, and the red cross says all need some kind of help john hendrick al jazeera keith

was for further analysis of bringing michael black, who is the director of the center, a nuclear engineering at imperial college lend. and enjoying us from there. hello there, michael. thanks so much for being on this news. i want to begin with the current status of the plans. information has been difficult to verify, but it appears that facility has been attacked several times. now, what are the implications of that? as well as the stand, the, the, the attacks haven't actually directly struck the react to themselves, the prison, keeping consumer buildings and also the power lines. the reactions provide their act as a power to, to function ok. so now we're hearing that russia has been able to, or is working towards redirecting the power to crimea, given the vast area between the 2 areas for want of a better word,

how they're able to do that. so it's not that difficult electricity be transported . i mean, most companies have grids electricity you get, comes from a power plant, patch, hundreds, kilometers away. i don't think that's, that's a problem. i think the concern, if there is a, is the may interrupt the offside power to the, to the reactance. and i think as was pointed out in your report prior to prior to this you, you need the power to maintain cooling to the reactance rebecca systems. so mentioned the diesel generators that again, should power be stopped and as long as they function, then everything's fine. well, i suppose, i suppose it's encouraging that the russians want to use the electricity that does imply that lighter wants of damage. it, but never now yes,

it's n a dynamic situation. so michael, if they're able to redirect that electricity, and as you're saying it's relatively simple to do that. what impact would that have on the energy supplied to europe? well, obviously they're in control. and, and so, so you would get less and it's already struggling. so it's an issue but, but as i understand in most of their actors on running and running, i don't think europe is depending on this point. it has a bigger problems with regards to the energy prices, possibly than the suffrage here. right. and given the current moves by russia, do they violate international protocols and what would happen if this behavior continue? i think there is a great concern with that nuclear react run very carefully quoting district protocols. as,

as i understand that this is being managed by russians and it's ukrainians that a keeping ran to going thanks for the question whether the proper maintenance should you should also be carried out as being carried out of the day to a maintenance that's not happening. then you do start to worry that back up systems for instance, might not function when the needed. so it would be, you would be a huge impact on staff that the russians would allow the high a some access just in order to assess the surcharge. ok. while we appreciate your insights on this issue, michael black, black, the director of the santa nuclear engineering at imperial college london. thank you . as of wednesday, european union member states can no longer import coal from russia. it's part of a 5th sanctions package on moscow to go with a 110 away from russian and james,

a few countries setting power consumption cups before the war. russia supplied 40 percent of europe's gas. replacing that, just before the northern winter is nearly impossible. in july, a u energy minister is a great a voluntary plan to cut the gas consumption by 15 percent starting in august. the u says if it's fully cut off from rushing gas this winter, it could have hit member states economies as much as 1.5 percent of jadae paid. some that came in at a power plant just outside berlin. the interesting thing is, the place behind me this, this cuffed high cuts fac, half stuck in the middle of berlin. will they go out over dependence on russian coal? earlier this year, they saw metaphorically the right thing on the wall, as far as they were concerned. and they divest themselves of a dependency on russian coal that just had a consignment of coal sent to them. it's being unloaded right now. crucially,

it's not russian coal, and the same applies right across the you now know you country should be bringing in coal from russia sauce from russia, but to a certain extent, both here in germany and across the u. that's the easiest of the fossil fuel supported from russia to do away with the ones that are much hard to do away with oil and of course gas. we know that the declares ambition from the you and from city, from the germans, is to get rid of dependency on oil by the end of the year. but getting rid of that dependency on gas is much more difficult. and we've already heard here in berlin on wednesday that several different large main gas providers in germany has said they're going to be hiking their prices for residential uses of gas in the coming autumn, full season by a very considerable amount. so while there's no question that you leaders will be

saying how important it is to get out of these fossil fuels, sars gases concerned, it's very hard. the u. k is also sweating over possible energy shortfalls. this winter, the government says it's for pay to knock some hands together during cross. this talks with energy company bosses on thursday. well, brennan has moved from london a real summer of energy crisis for the utilities, the water, the gas and electricity here in the united kingdom. and in response to that has been a lot of criticism of the government's lack of response. we are effectively leaderless here in the united kingdom with forest johnson still of number 10 downing street, but not making any policy decisions while we wait for his successor to be named. now in the meantime, what happens, what's happening is the energy costs to consumers are going up extraordinarily high . i mean, a typical bill from a year ago was around $2000.00 from january. the annual bill will be more than

$5000.00. you can see the enormous acceleration and costs and that's worrying people. now, government treasury officials say that they're working of options, but the next lead a crude, an act. but that's not enough for consumer groups who are demanding that there should be some kind of joint proposals comfortable with. now, even before the next prime minister is named, there will be a couple of government ministers who will jointly meet energy bosses on 1st day. the minister say they will be knocking heads together. the fact is the energy bosses will give as good as they get, i mean, energy bosses being interviewed on the media this morning saying things like, you know, the situation is dia, i'm astonished. we don't see the 2 political contenders, declare unity of purpose. so both sides blaming each other and in spain they are planned blackouts and thermostat regulations, but local say it's too hot to comply. lead hunting has moved. it has been a sweltering summer in madrid. but as temperatures have sort,

so to has the cost of fuel. so the spanish government has mandated that offices and stores cannot that their cooling system below 27 degrees celsius. in an area dependent on tourism, locals are afraid the heat wave and crack down on energy could scare visitors away . even if we get to the futures fun to be impossible, because now we are 18 degrees inside. if we go up to $27.00 degrees, we're going to be sweating all day. we won't need to go to the gym the for just give out a lot of heat and the customers are going to complain. nobody's going to come in. but the spanish government has already agreed with the other european union countries to cut dependency on russian gas by 15 percent. by the end of the year. they will just do that. we have to comply with the agreements we have reached in brussels. that's what i said, and the money spain also has a commitment of solidarity with the rest of europe in countries. each country is

free to choose the way in which we'll meet the commitment to cut energy use here in spain. that includes turning off the light perhaps other measures need to be found because i don't know up to what point turning off a shop window, display light is going to make much sabern that shop have to turn off window lights after 10 pm. however, street lighting will not be affected when i didn't know, but why would visitors come? because when you go out for a walk, what you want to see is joy soon. we won't have light. so if you decide to come to here and everything is switched off, you're going to ask yourself, what's the point? the measures will be reversed in winter when regulations will prohibit indoor areas not to be warmed above 27 degrees. leah harding al jazeera spanish coast guards have rescued 61 african refugees and migrants from a boat, neither canary islands. those rescued say they were attempting to reach the spanish

territory. police one body of a 19 year old man on the boat, but more if he did last year, some 4400 people were lost at sea, attempting to reach spain. and spain isn't the only country that's found refugees and migrants in its waters in libya, at least $320.00 people were detained and transferred back to tripoli after they was spotted drifting on a bush in the mediterranean. same malik china has more from tripoli. now we're here on the outskirts of tripoli, near a coast guard watch position. libya the coast guard announced that it rescued over 300 migrants in the mediterranean sea and brought them back to libya. now that included 11 women, 3 children, and one baby. just to give you some numbers. this is an ongoing situation. libya have long been a transit hub for african migrants trying to reach europe in 2021. 31000

migrants arrived in italy from livia. now in 2022 from january to august. that number has, has exceeded 34000 people, so the whole numbers are increasing. and a large part of the reason why is because libya is politically divided. there are 2 governments at the moment, so there's a lack of stability. the libyan authorities are saying that they're in a difficult situation. so when migrants arrive to europe, the european union are not happy with that. but when, when the coast guard brings back these migrants and put to live and put them in detention centers, human rights organizations say that there is ill treatment and human right, abusive. so it's a very difficult challenge for libyan authorities to be able to balance those out. but the situation a less, the libya can come together with a political agreement,

a united government, and the country can stabilize. the situation with migration could end up getting worse. plenty more head on this new sour, including better than expected economic figures help the us economy. but we'll at least president biden's approval ranking a close race and can use presidential election, but it could be awake until official results are now and another game. and another milestone to be the japanese. this is down, sorry, we have all the details coming up a little like a former us president donald trump has refused to answer questions under oath. in new york, he appeared at the attorney general's office as part of a long running investigation,

looking into his real estate business dealings. let's go live now to gabriel. alexander outside new york's attorney general's office. hello. they gave what happened to today's questioning. it's difficult to keep up with the many legal proceedings trump is facing it really is, i can tell you that the former president, donald trump, is still in this building behind me. he's been there for about 2 hours now, answering questions from the new york attorney general's office. this is all about related to an investigation. it started in 2019 and what they're investigating is, did donald trump artificially inflate the value of his trumped company? his golf course is in hotels, a say, okay, if he inflated the value of those, why is that important? it's important because that could be fraudulent and it could be criminal because if you inflate the value of your assets that could essentially get you

a more favorable loan from banks. and this is the fraudulent, potentially fraudulent part of all this. and this is what they're investigating. it's important to point out that this particular investigation by the new york attorney general's office is a civil case. not a criminal case. so what trump potentially could face is a settlement in the millions of dollars, potentially it could really cripple his business. or he could, the new york attorney general could decide to take this to a trial. bottom line though is this is a very critical moment right now is trump is being investigated. and he's already put out a statement probably by one of his staff members put it out while he was in this building saying that he's gonna plead the 5th, which means he's not going to be answering any questions because he doesn't want to incriminate himself. so you say, well, if he's already put out a statement saying he's not going to answer questions and why is he been in there for 2 hours? the reason is, is because the lawyers for the attorney general's office could still want to ask

him, potentially hundreds of questions and forced him to say, i plead the 5th i plead the 5th. i please if it's over and over again. because we know that eric trump, donald trump's eldest son, he's already interviewed with the attorney general's office. here already done a deposition. and according to court documents, eric trump pleaded the 5th and refuse to answer questions over 500 times. so bottom line, a lot is going on here, but there's a lot of commotion outside as we're waiting to see when donald trump will leave from this very critical deposition that he's facing in this investigation by the attorney general's office here in new york. now it sounds certainly like a tedious proceedings. going ahead take gabriel. how. how does this all play into his potential run for presidency in 2024? well donald trump is not declared that he's going to run for president,

but he's certainly given a lot of indications that he's strongly considering it. it's really, anybody's guessed he's very unpredictable as we are very much know now. but he is using this as to rally his supporters using the raid by the f. b. i of his home in florida to rally his supporters. and he's basically saying, this is another sign in his words, that deep state washington trying to investigate me and take me out a potentially running again in 2024. in fact, there's already been a campaign like video advertisement. it's put out and it very much gets to the back to this effect that he might run into years. let's listen to a little bit of what this campaign like video had to say. we are a nation that is weaponized law enforcement against the opposing political party

like never before. we've never seen anything like this. we are a nation that no longer has a free and fair, fresh fake news is about all you get. now you might be wondering, really i can't keep up with all of these investigations going on to the former president, donald trump, what's going on? it's important to point out that there are at least 6 different investigations going on, related to issues involving donald trump, the raid by the f. b i and florida. it's about one thing totally separate from this . you might have heard about a judge saying that trump needs to turn over his tax records to congressional investigators. that's totally separate from this as well. so there are multiple investigations going on by multiple agencies. and yeah, and that is why donald trump is facing really a landmine if you will, of investigations moving forward in the coming weeks, months and potentially even years. and this is all coming now is we have mid term

elections coming up in the us here in november. and we are now just counting down to the 2020 for presidential election. so buckle up your seat belts. we've got several months and really potentially years of a lot of turmoil, quite frankly, politically here in the u. s. indeed, we'll thank you for breaking down fresh. gabriel alexander live for us in new york still in the us and inflation that could be cooling. the consumer price index climbed 8.5 percent jan the year through july compared to 9 point one percent in june. wall street is up and the figures are welcome. we're praying for consumers like gas prices in f is have come down. resident joe biden said wednesdays is encouraging. we're seeing some science inflation may beginning to moderate. that's what happens when you're building the economy from the bottom up in the

middle out. well, to do very well and everyone has a chance. it gives everyone a chance to make progress. now i want to be clear with the global challenges we face from the war in europe to disruption of supply chains and pandemic shutdowns. in asia, we, we could face this not headwind the months of head. our work is far from over. 2 things should be clear. first, economic plan is working. the 2nd is building an economy that will reward work. let's bring in our white house correspondent, kimberly hell kit, who's live for us in washington day. say, hello, that. kimberly tell us a little bit more about what these numbers actually main but what it means is that the things that people buy every day here in the united states have been extraordinarily high. in fact, some of the highest prices we've seen in 40 years, comparatively speaking and that's. 2 really hurt the middle class as well as the

working class in this country. essentially, most people can spend the bulk of their income on things like food on shelter and also on the fuel that they put into their vehicles to get to work or even to heat their homes. and so what we've seen is these sort of 40 year highs a last month. it was 9 point one percent in terms of the inflation. and that was alarming to most americans. but now some good news for most americans at the white house that the inflation numbers have gone down little bit. that's due to the falling energy prices, 8.5 percent. so this is being celebrated because that means that there's a bit of a break, but there's so long way to go, because that doesn't mean inflation is over. it means it's just a little bit better than it was before. and the bottom line is, is that this isn't clear with one month of data, whether or not the peak has hit just yet, but certainly the white house is taking this as

a sign that things are moving in the right direction. namely, what they're saying is that they've taken some big steps with monetary policy. in other words, the rise an interest rates through the federal reserve. that's the body that really sort of manages monetary policy in this country. and essentially they're saying that by raising those interest rates that allowed for the cooling of the economy and the strategy is working. and kimberly, does this mean good news for president biden and potential lift in his approval writing? essentially yes, that is good news for the president. this is a white house that he has been looking for some good news for quite some time weeks if not months. this is the president that came in with some pretty good poll numbers and saw them subsequently drop with every successive month to the point that he was really bottoming out at the same place as one of our more popular presidents. donald trump, in the 30 percent range, in fact,

38 percent approval rating. that was last month. but in fact, we've gotten some recent numbers. the president's approval rating has gone up just this week. it to percentage points up to 40 percent approval rating. that still lot great fact 55 percent of americans still disapprove of the job he's doing. but certainly this is trending in the right direction. and the reason this matters is that is gabriel is handled by colleague reported as well. we're in that window where we're heading towards those congressional mid term elections. less than a 100 days until that this white house wants to hang on to its control of the democratic party control that is. 8 of the house of representatives, as well as the senate, so that the president can hang on to and push through his legislative agenda. he's had some victories in recent weeks with controlling drug prices, as well as addressing climate change. you want to continue that momentum. so certainly these inflationary numbers are a step in the right direction. kimberly great to hear from you. and so ways and what has cars when and kimberly how could live for us in washington dc. still,

head to on al jazeera, a huge fire, and an oil depot is contained. the cuban energy crisis is far from ortho. and it been lighter install. we look back at one of the great tennis korea, this serena williams samantha's overtime. ah, how i we still have some very heavy rain affecting southeastern part. so priscilla see this long line of cloudy which extends all the way out of bolivia or where to weather that windy weather swirling away around this area of low pressure. bringing some very, very wet and blustery conditions down towards rio, l slip out into the south atlantic suddenly wind comes backing behind re i would

around $21.00 degrees celsius. so will cool off cooling off to into our santiago temperatures here will fall away over the next couple of days will be some snow over the high ground. plenty of dry weather into much of brazil as we go on through thursday. showers up towards the far north, joining up that wet weather there across the columbia, venezuela. and up to was the caribbean, the eco, we'll see the showers piping up just around the panama, over the next hour. so we got some very wet weather coming in to that western side of the caribbean. still a few showers for the eastern islands, but not too bad here when the west sunshine van showers. then we go on to thursday and see the majority of the heavy right will be around nicaragua, costa rica, down towards panama. choices from heavy rain coming back into a good part of kentucky. just around the appalachians riding to the deep south larvae showers, pushing fruit slowly, making the way for the east. ah ah diets define who we are?

who always, if we don't know what we're eating in a disturbing investigation into globalized food fraud, people and power reveals long hidden scandalous practices. the def, infiltrated international wholesale markets, and supermarket chains. and asks, what's really on our plates. food in glorious food bond to on al jazeera when the news breaks here on here more intense wildfires that the best case scenario is this when people need to be heard. and the story told it was exciting to have this icon of the line, the show to everyone. with exclusive interviews, an in depth reports the operations awful damage to the bottom of al jazeera has teams on the ground to bring you more award winning documentaries, and lives. lou

the hello are you watching? 0. i'm emily ang, when he's a reminder about up stories this, our ukraine is warning. russia is preparing to connect power from the upper region nuclear plant with crime in an area which must go amex, in 2014. the plant has come under attack several times over the past week. un nuclear watchdog is warning of a nuclear disaster. european union ban on russian. coal starts on wednesday. it's part of the block sanctions package in response to these crime was a you expects the callback will cost russia $4400000000.00 a year that caused power shortage it across europe. and for me,

you as president donald trump has refused to answer questions under oath the new york he appeared at the attorney general's office as part of a long running investigation. looking into his real thank business dealing israeli forces have arrested 9 palestinians in the occupied west bank bank clued one member of islamic jihad, the group. israel said it was targeting in 3 days of strikes on gaza. oh, on tuesday there were protests after the military killed his senior commander of the palestinian group, alex and martin brigades. some palestinian organizations have called for a general strike. abraham l in the blue sea was shot dead by israeli troops on tuesday along with 2 others. that were killed 2 days after a thief, i took hold in gaza between israel and islam. mc g hand. the number of

palestinians killed in garza during those 3 days of fighting as risen to 47 children accounted for one 3rd of those. 9 of the 16 children killed lived in their adg obelia refugee camp. natasha good name went to the camp to speak to witnesses and families, and a warning view as may find some images in this report distressing. ah, at 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 grey. 5 children were killed in the cemetery in job bally a refugee camp on sunday. all but one of them from the same family had unlocked wallet orbit on desert who symmetry these relish. it is like a park for our children in our religion. we consider it as a final resting place. there is no security for our children. i asked the

international community to pressure israel to stop killing our children. this witness says he saw the explosion as the boys 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 along 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. caliah. abu commodity was hoping to marry sue, and give his parents grand children shouting shaheed. we could all be martyrs. almost every year we have war a massacres. when helene was born, i had a feeling he wouldn't 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 aga valley a cemetery is still being investigated. 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 riley rocket from the roof off my home. the israel is masika, my son. there is no doubt that palestinian groups are not responsible. the java 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 votes being counted in kenya's closely for the presidential election. turnout

is expected around 60 percent. the front runners, a former prime minister, ryan la agenda and deputy president william router malcolm, which is at one of the vote tele inches in robi, relatively peaceful compared to the past so far right now. vote so initially tallied constituency italy centers like this one before being forwarded onto the national tally sensor. but it's at this stage in the past, the evidence, the merged of irregularities in its reports or perceptions of irregularity that this stays its lead in the past to unrest and violence. now with me, the room goes house and is the executive director of amnesty international in kenya . how's the process going so far? so far? you know, we had a very low turn out yesterday left and 50 percent and a number of critical when constituencies. so it's still nerve biting in that sense in terms of what does that mean?

and the of course, as you've mentioned, the neck and neck, we also saw a number of incidents of violence, of applications between the opponent and some cases, even candidates and their supporters. so it's early days yet, but i think as you said, this is the moment in which questions are on the integrity of elections, usually merge and they become triggers for post election violence and disturbance. and the fact that the votes counted so far so that it could be a very close race. what's the implication of that? well, it doesn't mean that you know, that it's not clear who has won this election even at this very early stage. so we are likely to see the next 24 hours be very nerve wracking for the candidates and their supporters. but hopefully we will be able to keep peace across the different pulling stations or the telling them to the results are coming. which part of the country you keeping an eye on? are you concerned on regarding human rights abuses? well, there were 7 counties that were problematic during the campaign and what we saw

yesterday is particularly mombasa, what year which had gunfire at some points. and in mombasa, we saw a number of candidates physically fold each other, and in one case in, i think, believe us western kenya, we saw a member of parliament who was trying to reclaim a seat, actually remove a weapon and shoot the aid of one of his opponents, he's now left the country and believe in uganda. on the wrong. as returned to our story now of recent strikes in garza and the international humanitarian law, the state of israel is considered an occupying power in palestine. as such, it's required to make certain obligations. let's take a look. one of them is avoiding collective punishment. that means an entire group cannot be sanctioned as retaliation for the acts of some of its members. become discussion or destruction of private property is also not allowed. there is, however, an exception. if the occupying military force decides it's absolutely necessary,

and people accused of crimes by the occupation have a right to a fair trial. let's bringing home a blue santa who is an associate professor of political science at l as our university in gaza. he joins us from rest in virginia though. hey, my thanks so much for being on the program. is israel respecting its obligations under international law as an occupying power? thank you very much for having me. let me start by saying that as of the ongoing is way the occupation of california that especially in that goes us to for the past 55 years. and also as a result of the past 15 years of his where he received john lucky against more than 2000000 people in the gaza strip. israel has turned the gaza strip into the lot of just open at a prison on the face of it, where the palestinians are suffering from. i live as a father, the unemployment and a restricted access and movement. and when we,

when we speak about these figures of history goes very much, are the figures of you and another international agencies, especially amnesty international human rights watch who have very much indicated that what is when is a doing again, not last indians is, is, is, is again isn't that much. busy law again, isn't that much than i am an italian law, an unfortunate the is when has noticed picked whatsoever, the much number, what is when is doing is in league and according to the 4th geneva convention in its treatment of the palestinians, civilian population. i lit the site, not to mention as what any one of crimes and guns against their humanity, which has him fixed the lot of killing and a lot of destruction again is the palestinian civilian infrastructure over the past 15 years in which is where it has waged more than 4 wars and many escalations on god of an interest of him just last week, which led to the death of 45 palestinians, apple them out. not often,

young children fell on civilians and the lot of destruction, which is and taught them by emission of international, sorry, say my, that being said, what probably stacy's day to investigate allegations of breaches. such is things well, unfortunately, the international community must take a decisive action against this is really violations of international law which has as i mentioned, documented by under human rights counselor. human rights watch of mr. busy national and many international by these, but as well as behaving as a country above international law and as respect has noticed that whatsoever or enter machine on a buddy's, an international conventions, the palestinians are trying to prosecute is when at the ice you see the international criminal court because of its water crimes and crimes against humanity and also crime among edition against the palestinian people. but
