2:03 pm
that now russia, on the other hand, seeing that one of the conditions for the resumption of the deal is that all the obstacles the count off exporting the russia like this to be, to be removed. at this moment. we do not know what is what, what that means exactly, considering the fact that there are tremendous international sanctions on the russia and the banking system has come from the international finance system as well. but that is one of the rushes condition for now. so we know that russia just over the weekend had been through the deal, seeing that they are investigating that test was to pull an appeal, it concludes that. so it's going to, it's going to put a hold on the, on the, on the shipments to the blacks. so now in terms of told between, you know, most school kids and of course, by the united nations as well. it seems that at this moment,
2:04 pm
the deal is once again, once again a live now and it is, it is it's work. and so according to the doing coordination center, that is a public to stumble as a part of dish. but actually green initiatives that are more than 90 loaded westerns that are around the stumble and waiting to be respected by di, by the coordination center. and also this coordination center stating that more than 80 ships also lied to be registered for the inspection. you can see that there is a high number or that that, that the ships that are waiting to be inspected to get the community to carry did bring to the international market. so, so the, for the update, thanks very much. let's move toward the top story that we're following here on out there. i don't see election in israel what the former israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu appears on course to return. as the country's leader with almost
2:05 pm
all of the violence counted in tuesday's election, his right tween block looks set to win a slim majority. bethany all, who was israel, the longest serving prime minister that has been out of office for the 16 months stephanie decker is. it was to re slim. she tells us what this result means. the future of the government with 97 percent of the votes counted, i think, you know, bar it is a couple of numbers that fluctuate here, and there are a couple of seats. but the bigger picture has remained the same since those 3 main exit polls at 10 pm last night, which is that it looks like benjamin netanyahu is block, including that radical far right. i'm are going to take the majority. it remains a slim majority, certainly according to the numbers, but it remains a majority nonetheless. so what does that mean? well, it means that potentially we could see benjamin netanyahu meeting with the israeli prime minister, who will then task him to form a government. you will then still see negotiations go back and forth because it
2:06 pm
then goes about who was going to be appointed to walk ministry. and of course, benjamin netanyahu is the one who got these 2 parties to run together. one of them being ben givers far right. jewish power party, which is now the 3rd largest party in the connecticut and he is really parliament. and as you've been mentioning, we've been reporting since last night and really been given has become a character personality during these elections. and this is a very right wing ideology, a party with people that call for the expulsion of palestinians that those policy into throw should bestows me to be shot and killed to annex the westbank been given some one who often towards the deluxe. a most compound calling for the jewish right to prayer. so this is an extreme right wing w must of all is a palestine unless for the international crisis group, she explains how the election results is likely to affect palestinians. implications of this, i think for palestinians cross their different strategy,
2:07 pm
a graph crankcase is going to be a continuation. deterioration of the status quo is ready. expansionism westbank, israel's continued refusal to reach political compromise, confrontation of land. peter piracy policy and taxes. trigger happy. soldiers tapping about support of organized and onset, the militia is roaming around the west bank. mean these election results will mean that we see more extremism from israel and a continued duration in the economic critical critic, actuation and increasing stress and tension in the territories. some of the figures who are likely to take control have made so i do have blatantly. busy politics and have made in monetary statements and policy proposals in the past, and we can expect palestinian communities either in israel or the territories to have their rights uphold. respected. so i think ultimately we should expect and said, you know, rosen in their respective situation. we don't have to consider an additional variable here, which is that we are experiencing a p, a crisis of leadership that's happening. and this is happening against the background of an extremely hostile, of what will be extremely hostile is re,
2:08 pm
the problem is that's going to exploit any divisions and instability that into use for its own interests. and we've seen that from previous is ready. governments. we've seen the way that they've dealt with us, but the split they've used as an excuse not to engage in this piece process while continue to expand settlements in the west bank isolate cause i'm put it under seach and i don't think this having an extremely right when government leave most extreme and israel history is going to do anything to bring us towards the positive trajectory. those career side at least 23 missiles into waters off his coast, the largest number in a single day. the ship it also $500.00 artillery shells. there at southern border, south career responded by condemning the action and launching missiles of its own bride report stuff from sol. this latest exchange of missiles comes a south korean and you small plains stage joint air drills. the resumption of large scale exercises after a several year hiatus has infuriated the loss,

2:10 pm
apparently developing its tactical nuclear, asked no to the alarm of its south korean. and japanese neighbors was i came with that. this is jenny, done the recently, north korea has been relentlessly and unilaterally escalating its provocations. its actions threatened the peace and security of japan, the region, and the international community. unlike the previous south korean administration that was trying to foster dialogue with north korea, the current government has shown it is willing to match each military escalation with an equal response is just sort of a slowly, steadily escalating threat that at some point could lead to a really serious outbreak and that's really the, the concern whether this exchange of missiles will be followed by more is not known, but as a precaution. some colorado's used by commercial jets off the korean peninsula. east coast have been closed temporarily with airlines. we routing that play for fear of mall launches, robert fried, i'll just era. so now kenya is deploying treated to the democratic republic of

2:17 pm
crimes against journalists. this year alone, 35 have been killed. one was al jazeera sharing. actually, the palestinian american was shot dead by israeli forces while on assignment and the occupied west bank in may. no one has yet been held accountable. joining me handle studio is sharina barclays. nice, lena, it's good to have with us on al jazeera. thank you for having me. there is no amount of, i'm sure was that when we actually say how, sorry we are at the loss of your aunt and other great colleague journalists with us here on the channel. today's a very special day. and that's why we have you on our set to talk about what the plan is really in terms of protecting journalists and how you're sort of trying to for that campaign as well. yeah, of course today is as you mentioned, international data and impunity. and it's just important that these crimes, the perpetrators are held accountable, and there are
2:18 pm
a better mcadams in place to protect journalists and ensure their safety. and especially with the 10 year anniversary of the u. one plan of action coming up in the end of this month, it's important that policy makers and legislators and decision makers have the political will to implement mccann isms to implement policies that ensure that journalists are being protected. and if a crime is committed, there is accountability, there needs to be an end to this. impunity because journalists are not just numbers, there are human beings or doing their duties. of course it's you and your family on a very personal level. let's begin with where we are in terms of the investigation . where are we? well, we are still pushing for an independent, transparent investigation by the us administration and the f b i and in the u. s. is obliged to investigate crimes committed outside
2:19 pm
outside of the us towards the citizen and f b. this is the role so we are continuously pushing for the and we have recently submitted a petition along with the palestine syndicate journal. the syndicate to the i c. c . hoping that they would start an investigation, they would investigate into this crime since the murder of your aunt in may. you've been pushing along with al jazeera, but maybe you and your family. and talking to politicians across the board and in all areas of the world. what are they telling you to your face, and what are they saying publicly? is it the same? or is it different? and do you feel supported by as you say, the politicians, the decision makers, those that can really put pressure on television to, to give you the answers that you want. well, going back to the u. s. one we visited in july,
2:20 pm
we met with the number of members of congress representatives and senators, who actually showed their support and have been have been constantly speaking out and calling for the us us administration to launch an investigation. but there have been other instances where we met with policy makers or are high officials who behind closed doors would promise accountability or with state that they are committed to ensuring accountability. but then we see the double standards on the, on social media or when they're giving out statements. and this is something that we've noticed is the park double standards, the hypocrisy, and how the international community has handled this this case. but we are very, we're very hopeful, and we're putting all our hope and members of congress who have the ability to make
2:21 pm
a difference and to pressure the u. s. administration such as representative andrew carson bill. it's a stand alone bill called justice for shooting act, which ensures that there needs to be a full report on an investigation on the murder of a us citizen. and for there to be accountability before your aunt was killed, you yourself had your own life. you are in aspirations, your own thoughts about where your career was going to go. how much is that being you might say slightly offset with what's going on at what stage will you begin to live your life? i'm sure there were any people out there wondering that you've taken the mantle. you've taken them to fight to keep your name in the forefront to get justice for her. and it's totally admirable. but you yourself are also a human being with your information. of course, you know, the past 6 months have been extremely difficult. as i had to shoulder the task of
2:22 pm
calling for justice and accountability. when in reality it shouldn't have been my role, it should be the role of those in power can make a difference. but honestly, it's then challenging journey, but at the same time i feel like this has become my calling and i know that shooting would have done the same if it was anyone else, any of her colleagues or family members. so yes, my pass has been different than what i anticipated. i was simply just me trying to find the job. and this has become my full time job, i say. but no matter where i end up, i know that i will continue to fight for justice and accountability. no matter how long and wherever that's going to take me. it's been an absolute pleasure to have you here. and certainly it all she did, lena? i will actually thank you so much for your time. thank you. a sentencing hearing

2:25 pm
a country which was the victim of this bribery depriving the state coffers of tax revenues. they were told by a judge that they couldn't because only the prosecution that britain's serious fraud office and the defense that's glen court could actually make arguments. so the issue of compensation for those con, is a matter for a later date, but the company certainly knows it's going to be hit heavily. it's put aside one and a half 1000000000 us dollars for corruption cases here in the u. k. in the us. and in brazil that he bought the 47 london thanks very much for the update. on my case thousands of people and they began gathering for rally and slang because capital to protest against economic crisis. police have been heavily deployed in columbus and all the demonstration relying because economy it's, i think it's worth crisis in decades. inflation is rising and many people have been
