ah, i'm sammy. this is algae. they're alive from dell hall. so coming out late is that the general assembly here, a blistering warning from the secretary general. we instead of google, this content is on the horizon. the cost of living crises is raging grasp is crumbling in quality is not exploding, and our planet is moscow. bag separatists in ukraine's done by region declared bel hold referendums on joining russia after wreaking havoc. in puerto rico harkins diona brings heavy rain and flash floods. the caribbean, ah, an independent investigation is found the killing of shooting blocks lay by israeli

soldiers may was deliberate. al jazeera provided material for the analysis which was carried out by research forensic architecture and huck a human rights group. the investigation reconstructed this video and animation studied the angle of these railey snipers gunfire. relation to shooting location, the rate of fire, and the number of bullets used. it rules out the possibility of confrontations between israeli forces and palestinian gunman and the occupied west bank at the time. it also says the sniper, open 5 for 2 minutes targeting val just here, a journalist, and anyone who tried to rescue a i us marksman typically use an optical scope that is mounted on their m for assault rifles, and magnifies their vision for times. this is the opening for the scope we stimulated. how shooting and the other journalists would appear

from the marksman position 190 meters away. according to the model, this is what the marksman would have seen when they began shooting. the journalists, pressed vest would have been clearly visible here and throughout the incident, we were able to verify their visibility by placing a camera with a telephoto lens at the precise position of the marksman and taking a photograph at 4 times magnification, indicating what the marksman would have seen through the scope the journalists were clearly identifiable as such. we reconstructed that position when he was shot and the bullet points of impact, as well as shooting position and the point of impact when she was shot and killed. when the marksmen shot shooting, she was turned away from them with her precipice in full view. we also identified the impact of 4 shots that hit the street.

the proximity of the shots confirms the professional marksman repeatedly and explicitly targeted the journalists. earlier, my colleague, tom mccrae spoke to almost ferocity the lead investigative for the research group. forensic architecture. he began by asking him about the scope of the analysis. well, we've been working every day since the day that shaheen was killed on the 11th of may. on this to create a very precise forensic analysis of all the circumstances of this shooting. how thorough it is that we are creating for the 1st time a spatial reconstruction and analysis, through footage and photographs and documentation of the site that transforms the site into a model that can be measurable to millimeters with vast, with the unprecedented or unseen before footage, we can locate the precise position of the journalists,

including shooting of office throughout the incident of the shooting at them as well as the position for the 1st time to basically tell you exactly where the israeli occupation forces were and where they shot out of. we actually know the whole that they shot out of by, by constructing this model and positioning them throughout the space were able to ask questions about, what did the israeli soldiers see when they shot? we were able to ask questions about what was the timing of the shots. were there any others around? these are questions that were coming up, but what could not be answered without this kind of forensic analysis? and what's difference here is that our work is can you know beyond the journalistic work, our work is admissible and national and international court of law. it will be used to mobilize as evidence, legal actions for the justice of shooting along. so do you think that some of this

could play a part in the international criminal court claim that has just gone ahead this morning? we hope that all our work, including this one is giving evidence material and concrete evidence that hasn't been given before. our list of findings is long and thorough and precise. and we do hope and think that it will push us to, to see for ourselves what we knew all along. that there was a deliberate targeting, that they could identify them as journalists, as they were shooting that they denied shooting off their medical aid. after she had been hit and that there was no one else around that there was no cross fire that there was no fighting around. i mean, seeing this evidence. yes, we do think that it is beyond any dose of what happened here. not only of the possibility, we know that the israeli occupation forces shot shooting and we have very strong evidence to say that they deliberately targeted them repeatedly as journalists that

they knew they were a journalist and they repeatedly targeting them. so yes, we think that it will be a strong case for calling on further investigations. yeah, we think it's very clear what we found here. a complaint has also been filed with the international criminal court, demanding accountability for the killing. it's the 2nd case filed at the i c. c. speaking in the hague, anton law clerk called for justice for assistance killing which has been over 4 months since shooting was good. our family shouldn't have to wait another day for justice. that's why in addition to quin continuing our record for a u. s. investigation. we are horse recording on the international criminal court order to begin the process for holding the killers or council is their own general to investigate their own crimes. and it's time, it's time for their international communities to take

a stand and hold those responsible accounts they, there must be consequences when ellipticals with impunity, if not to keep the door open for reserves me to 30 or any are little bit silly to do this again ah, an annual meeting of global leaders is taking place in new york. the war in ukraine and its impact world wide is dominated the un general assembly debate so far. we do the action across the board. let's have no illusions. we are in rough seas. a winter of global discontent is on the horizon, a cost of living crises, his raging thrust is crumbling inequalities are exploding, and our planet is burning. the international community is not ready or willing to tackle the big that emetic challenges of our age. these cries is threatened,

the very future of humanity, and the fate of all planet cries is like the what a new crane and the multiplication of conflicts around the globe crime. it's like the climate emergency and biodiversity loss cries is like the die and financial situation. the developing countries and the fate of the sustainable development goals, salanda, illness and the conflict is escalating. and we are investing tremendous efforts in order to ensure that the horrible be finalized by protecting the territorial integrity and the sovereignty of ukraine once and for all. and we would like to lead launch and appeal to all the international organizations under countries of the world to support peaceful initiatives of turkey to settle this dispute once on . for all, we need a dignified way out of this crisis, and that can only be possible through a diplomatic solution which is rational, which is fair and which is applicable and on. demand a shall is that the united nations joins us live from there now. so listening to

the turkish president there he made. but basically, i, i guess you could say the presentation of turkey as a great mediator of world conflicts on the stressing, gone anchors, efforts to try and find common ground in number of conflicts, but other forefront as we heard there saw me the war in ukraine and walls, you know, he did impress upon delegates and while the leaders gathered in the united nations or the united nations of courts or the need for a peaceful solution, he stopped short of providing any tangible steps. and that may not necessarily be reflective of the sort of kias shortcomings in so much as it is a factor of where we are right now, where no country or body has been able to find any, you know, practical steps to put an end to this war. which has gone on now for more than half

a year. that said, maybe ankara is position is a lot more promising than others. in that it has succeeded in finding common ground to some of the know kind of facts of this war, particularly with regards to food security in the global supply chain of grain and other important things coming out of there. and that was something that's or the one i spoke about, but he didn't limits his words to the war and ukraine. he also spoke about other conflicts. most recently, obviously the one between us are by john and armenia. he spoke about libya, he spoke about iraq. he spoke about syria as well as other challenges facing the wall, but ultimately are the ones. main message to delegates was one of seeking support for his country's attempts of conflict resolution, but also the renewed emphasis on the need for the united nations to reform itself.

sammy highlighting his position that the world is greater than 5 referencing the 5 permanent members of the un security council. and how it is unfair and unjust, that they have essentially veto power over many significant decisions that impact, you know, billions of people around the world. nor i jamal a shout that thanks so much. so i had an al jazeera ah freedom after 22 years caught in the u. s. squashes the motor conviction of a man whose case riveted listeners of villa pod cast, serial canyons call for just this is the world bids farewell to queen elizabeth the 2nd ah

it's having on food insecurity worldwide. and the climate crisis are all on the agenda. un secretary general and tony retired, i says, well, this in big trouble, the winter of discontent is around the corner. earlier i'll diplomat again it's james bay spoke to the u. s. ambassador to the un when the thomas greenfield said sup to russia, if at once meaningful dialogue over your crime. but the ukrainians have never turned their backs on diplomacy. but they have to defend themselves. the russians made a decision that they would prefer war over peace over diplomacy. so if there are discussions taking place between the 2 of them this week, we encourage that. but we know that until russia takes its troops out of ukraine, it's going to be very difficult to have meaningful diplomacy with them. as you know, russia is on the back foot. militarily the talk now is russia's next tactic, which may be referenda in lieu hans and doormats. what would the u. s. his reaction

if they tried to amex that territory as they did in 2014 with crimea, they will not be recognized by anyone in the international community. they were not recognized in 2014 and it will not be recognized at this time around. it is illegal annexation of another countries territory. while the global consequences of ukraine's war is being debated that the un on the ground moscow back separatists in easton ukraine se so. hold referendums this week. on joining russia, senior officials in moscow say the referendums will be held by separatists administrations in the hands and on the screens for beloved last night the civic chambers of the dawn yet, and landscape people's republics appealed to the hedge of these territories in order to immediately hold referendums on joining the russian federation. given the current situation,

they simply can't be any other solution. and referendums will definitely take place . the leaderships of the d, p. r, and lp are already taking the necessary steps to join forces. what brought his foreign minister. so gay leverage says it's up to the people living in separate is controlled areas to decide what they want. most of them actually from the very beginning of the special military operation. and before it, we've been saying that the peoples of the respective territory should decide their own fate. the whole current situation confirms that they want to be master of their own fate. gabriel allison has more now some kid in separation and in no yes. in both of those regions, russia only holds roughly about 50 percent of the territory. their local officials have said that they only plan to hold this referendum vote in the part of those regions. their russian forces do currently hold hello. it's really unprecedented to try to hold some sort of referendum such as this in an active wars zone is

exactly what they're facing right now. it also appears that this was hastily organized or put together, given the fact that one of the local russian imposed officials in desperation said, well, we're going to hold this referendum by the internet voting and by mail. even though in that area, both male and internet service are very unreliable at best and in most cases not even available. so. busy still lots of questions to be worked out here. we do expect or we are hearing, at least that russia, as president vladimir put potent, could be addressing the russian people in a televised address. so be watching that closely to see what more he has to say about this important to point out. we've already heard from ukraine and officials, including the foreign minister that is calling this referendum vote, assuming it goes forward, in his words, a sham. they're just rolling their eyes and they say, it's just simply
