4:05 pm
wearing in of the new government, which will be happening in a few hours time because nets and yahoo is the longest serving prime minister and is writing history. this is him making a comeback, but it wasn't possible without the coalition, which is a blog that's made up of ultra orthodox and very much the most right wing government. the israel has ever seen. now, part of that deal, which has been in the process now since it's election to almost 2 months now and november. the 1st part of the deal was that there was some stipulations and requests from this coalition to be paul before they could go ahead with the swearing and that's what's been happening. a marson for the last couple of days of new laws and new policies that have been boston. of course, we also heard earlier in the day a great deal of noise, both inside and outside the connect it in terms of outside who were those people
4:06 pm
who were they actually protesting about absolutely. we've been speaking to a lot of israelis, of different ages, different beliefs in the last few days since i've been here. there's a lot of this content, especially amongst the most secular people said yes, that was a democratic votes. i spoke to someone who said to me, but the policies and these new knows have come in, are a concern to them. you have been good there for example, who's already has a, a conviction of racism from before. you've got the the, the couple of laws that came out 2 days ago, march law and the law, which is allowing people with convictions to hold ministerial positions. these are positions of power, bank of it is now being given unprecedented sleeping power to look over the police for example. so we're talking about policies that can affect the judiciary and of course, less than yahoo. as you mentioned earlier,
4:07 pm
if someone that has been brought right now in a corruption case and is coming back as prime minister, so they're all concerned amongst the locals here that, you know, does this really represent democracy? of course, there are also, there's a sentiment that maybe a law will be changed to discrimination. no, that could potentially allow people depending on their beliefs to turn away people from the l g l, g, b, t, q plus community as well as anyone they feel including the health sector doctors for example, they felt that was the patient they didn't want to to serve so these are concerns not just on a political level, but also on the society level. you have to know who that was earlier talking. he really focused as his top priority. he said, is iran. obviously this has been in a be in his bonnet for a long time ever since he came into power in the early to early ninety's rather. and then you also have this situation where this is a hot cool. all right wing, a government is made it very clear,
4:08 pm
one of the top agendas and policies, policies that then out yesterday is going to be the expansion of course of the for months in the occupied west bank. so there's a lot to discuss here. there's a lot to look forward to and we'll have to wait and see what the situation is and who is going to have the upper hand in this new government. the swearing in is going to happen in less than an hour from now until about 20 picks. in the coming hours we'll come back to as and when that happens. so requirement for us there. in west truce them. thank you. that's cross over to garza now. where you can also eat is standing by and of course where you are, it's a palestinian area controlled by hamas and i'm sure they're listening and watching very carefully what's being said in the israeli parliament. a true, according to my senior political real leader, has he had that who has spoken to jazeera today? we asked him about thomas's reaction and he said that chemist considers no question
4:09 pm
this israeli government to be a right extreme right wing hostile government that adopts a lot of criminal uh, plans, ideas and measures towards the of the existence of the israel. e occupation in the palestinian lands. he says that they are going to be rain forcing this occupation through the confiscation of more lads, digitizing of the jerusalem. and the settlements that are being annexed and exceeding different parts of the occupied west tanks and further settlements in that he also said that the exam us expects the international low to show its position a clear position towards this extreme, eas, railey government, and not to provide political or a support political support or
4:10 pm
a cover to this extreme government and on their part as, as we have a said that her mass is going to be monitoring every measure taken by this is readily government and all confrontations or ha sales that would be on the policy of people, whether in because district or in the west bank and we'll be watching closely and it will be a forcefully in front of any aggression towards the policy and people e mail side forest. i in garza, thanks very much for all the updates and the view from that. let's cross over now to london where i'm joined by you'll see michael burke. he's an associate fellow chance from house and professor of international relations at the university of roehampton. thanks so much for joining us on al jazeera could see again, i mean from your point of view, just briefly in terms of summing up, what direction is israel heading into hello,
4:11 pm
this is allowing you to go and the lation, which i think is dangerous to serve please democracy. i think the gleam of jewish and the mccarthy is badly demons shall be that badly damaged by this government. or the thing are so full of it. what was the god? the design is the name of aggressive country, living in peace with its neighbor. this is, this is will be. ready gladly hound a. there is no one sign, no one item in the coalition agreement that gives me any woo optimism, whether it's for it is early jews, israeli, palestinian aus or living with in line. and definitely not the one for the students living in the west bank in garza. and as the designs are soon relations with, with, with the region. it's the same with strong anti democratic elements as many of them
4:12 pm
are for being such a nice people that hell bent on destroying the supreme court and the justice system . it led by, by prime minister. this is facing the seal of co option, senior members of government when being convicted already and in the past. and as far as the palestinian issue, some of the senior personalities with sation of the west bank and even make the life of policy in steuben well. so there is no much one forks missing considering this, and indeed that sort of overview gives our insightful views at a certain certain view that is reciprocated and repeated across the world. for example, we're seeing and hearing from various jewish groups and leaders in the us and europe that they seem to distancing themselves from the incoming israeli government to me. just back in february basil, our small rich, the incoming finance minister was basically told to go back to israel by the top
4:13 pm
u. k. jewish body, the board of deputies. they are a very influential group and one gets the impression there is a schism forming in the jewish theology or that both jews in the us or europe have compared to what the politicians are talking about. what jewish being jewish is in israel. absolutely. i think most of the jewish communities luxury supporting the jewish state, but there is a huge difference between salting the existence and the spelling of the jewish state. and so did you say, living in peace and security and supporting felton government? does that include, in the case a few mentioned of the both of deputies here that didn't want to associate? it says we've saw one like the now a finance minister in new zealand. he also means still seen the defense minister with his mortgage,
4:14 pm
which explains some of the acadia. they says the idea against we refused that his wife was. we show that woman the mortality in my family to wall with palestinian woman. yes, the jewish communities around do more and most of their will like to associate himself with this kind of government. doesn't through change your support fees or the zillow, but they want to see a different government denisa. and like you saw down, look, usually citizens, most of them. and then even if these are decided and voted in election, then favor of such a government, you'll see cuz the base of it, you'll see how you can make countries coming very quickly. because because it's coming very quickly that sorry, i don't interrupt because we are running out of time. i want to ask you about another very quick question about groups like the board of deputies. i spoke to a groups in the, in the us any a few days ago. very worried about what's going on in israel now and how the government will be formed. these sorts of groups speak to their respective
4:15 pm
governments who then create policy about how they're going to interact with israel . do you think these sorts of groups are now going to put pressure on the, by the administration, on prime minister, richie su, neck, and the likes across the e. you to say you need to change your policy towards israel because what they're doing is not right. there are 2 options, it's one of the do will actually be the see next you the way that the speak to this leave those about what they supposed or not all otherwise, there was a silent actually being so fees that only policy day she was a door and be less vocal about their supports in the office as long as the government is involved or see what happens. you'll see my callback is always good to speak to you. thanks for joining us from chatham house in london. thank you. thank you. the

4:22 pm
well, they'll get all this. i need some time or to be removed or some barricades are, are removed. they're in a manner that air crossing. this is the biggest and most frequent are crossing between serbia and of course of her. but they're here or in the yard in your crossing. everything is pretty the same. oh, crossing is closed, but there we are no longer the only people here i see. i can see maybe 10 or 12 trucks waiting also are but these are crossing is still closed. i remind you their turn and guarding it ends. greenock, or close or for 20 days now. okay, so there has been, oversee a lot of diplomatic conversations going on behind the scenes one apparently between serbia, the u. s. and the e u. what we know is being said there yes,
4:23 pm
well, as serves who were in the barricades or in previous 20 days ahead there several demands or besides of releasing her dan band teacher, a former policeman or who was arrested here in the adding on december then. but there last night he was released under house arrest. d, as for guarantee that no one of them will be arrest that coastal police wont arrest any of them. and they also want the nurse in the 2nd, the man was related to a presence of a special unit, of course, of a police or in the night course a lot. so when a voltage was here last night, and he convinced them that earn a guarantees that serbia got from their u. s. in the european union meet exactly that. so they agreed to remove the barry case. but the over these sent
4:24 pm
a clear message that if any of any serve a will be arrest or if therubi are, and i recognize the independence of course, civil barricades will be returned and this time for good. so it's so really are what we can see here. really big mistrust between the syrup sleeping and causal and the possible government. and even that will longer let the something that will cover the keep a very close eye on for the moment to yelling. thanks very much for joining us. that's cross over to russell said there are correspondent in the course of an capital. christina russell. i mean, serbia seems to be trying to diffuse a situation in northern kosovo. but what reaction for the government where you are while the government and, or tolbert is here, are well come in, there is a decision and also the pasha removal of the barricades. i'm over, they are cautiously optimistic. they say that for
4:25 pm
a lost in peace are so the of serbia needs to respect the sovereignty, rice off casala and also eventually to recognize the independence of course, or as a think, you know that in 2008 walk or so. 2 has announced to be at as a state so serbia didn't recognize the independence of course awareness. steel says, crossover as a part of serbia, so that the crossover authorities here, they're seeing that respect for their sovereignty and also to coordinate in the, in the pandas will be our only achieved if, if, if sylvia, she is sick, he accept that, that's going to a guaranteed, the last imperious, on the other hand, are here at the or taught it is, are seen that an international proper mechanism should be established here to monitor over this tension. and also these crisis not to, to not to are come up again. however, i can see that the situation is quite fragile here and conquest. see that in there . that is the history of the conflict in this region. door toiletries of the
4:26 pm
government and also even people industries are quite concerned because the situation is still quite as, as i said, that the removal of the barricade has happened partially and still the majority of that battery keys are there. and the jury. 2 of those are still blocked and the gates are, are still a good, are still close there. so we can see that there is a kind of hope and concern it is, is in the air here. and i mean we heard from is elaina, that a call serbia is looking for guarantees from the e. u and the usaa, just wondering whether serbia and castillo behind the scenes are talking to each other. i mean, obviously that always public fall outs with these sorts of things, but we know that behind the scenes there was always a conversation on going. are you hearing about anything like that at all? so for the conversation all the talks between the parties have happened that through the immediate or so here you assay definitely is importantly and the
4:27 pm
european union on the other hand is another important layer. so all the piece processes here, the talks has been initiated by these 2 main, our poverty. they have put a tremendous pressure, bought on kosovo and government, and also the serbian government to deescalate distribution here. and apparently so far a, one of the reason that did the de escalation or retention didn't result in named open conflict is because of this diplomatic force coming from both usa and the european union. and also you'd have been union is telling more size that if they do not resolve the of their problems. the of the issues here at that day is that your opinion is not going to a to, to, to initiate their, at their application for the exception to the european union. but on the other hand, russia is also another important player here, asked is the start of the crisis. russia has repeatedly expresses support for the serbian government. and the fear here among the international community is that
4:28 pm
russia could be a destructive force here. and definitely they are very much concerned pointing to the european companies here are very much concerned that after the war in ukraine, there might be another fraud being created front off the war being created in the heart of europe. and that is definitely the concern as something that international community is afraid of seeing. russell, so that for the update that thanks very much. joining us from christina, well, time for chair called the world, whether now his jeff to see if there's some rain in the forecasts across the middle east, straight into those details right now. so it's bubbling up around the red sea area, stretching rate through central saudi arabia. so let's go in for a closer look. we could certainly see some flooding in jetta, but this band of rain stretches into re add for sure. it's going to push more cloud cover here in doha, and even the risk of seen some showers as well. so here's
4:29 pm
a 3 day forecast. okay, there's that increasing cloud on friday. rain brisk on saturday and for the 1st day of 2023 temperature pretty well where it should be for this something your air quality has improved in karachi. things to those winds still poor air quality though in the horn and the snow. the shield of snow that was over cobble is now pushed into the foothills of the himalayas. turkey. it's a con pitcher plenty of sun in the forecast bit more in the way of cloud cover, though 4 is stumble with a high of 11 degrees. most of the activity in africa is just south of the equator, but for south africa, got a lot of activity bubbling up around how tain, province and showers ago for quiz, hulu. natal durbin got hiv 21 degrees, but not bad for cape town. i think that's a place to be could hit 30 degrees on the 1st day of 2023. i'm not have time see later. well, still have him on al jazeera. we take a look good. why? so few native americans are going to college. and his sport was the biggest star
4:30 pm
put in his form, and chris joe, who called me lebanon, is facing a range of crises, political, economic, and humanitarian. children are hungry, and many people are jobless, while others die at sea. in the midst of the despair, one group is often overlooked. they don't have enough pocket money to buy something to eat. al jazeera goes to the heart of palestinian refugee counts in lebanon to full report stories of a forgotten people on al jazeera. it's time for a memorable holiday with pegasus. it's time for turkey. set sail for new discoveries. enjoy. have new experiences. hit the shops, make wonderful memories. travel to turkey with pegasus,
4:31 pm
and with direct whites to istanbul, and tribes a book your ticket now for a memorable holiday. c f y p g. s. for our best prices. lou ah, welcome back to the usa with me. so hell, rama. reminder of all top stories here on al jazeera authorities in ukraine say russia has struck several regions, including keep in a major missile attack. the military says, our defense is shut down. 50 full of the $69.00 missiles. the by of livid says 90 percent of the city is without power. at least 19 people have been
4:32 pm
killed in a fire. the cambodian hotel casino on the board with thailand. 30 others have been injured. they've been protest outside israel's parliament ahead of the swearing in of any far right government. the demonstrators say they don't support the coalition government that will be led by benjamin netanyahu. sir, let sir bring you more because israel's incoming government has and out several policy guidelines stating that the jewish people have an exclusive right to all land. this means it'll continue to develop settlements and occupied palestinian territory. the government plans to retroactively legalize illegal outposts in the occupied west bank. the coalition says it will restore what it calls the proper balance between the legislature, executive and judiciary, which critic see as an attempt to undermine the supreme court. it also wants to preserve the heritage and jewish character of the state,
4:33 pm
but as pledge to respect the practices and traditions of all religions. and that it says it means that the status quo on religion and state, including the holy sites, will remain that abraham reports now from occupied westbank on reaction to the new coalition on the ground. the israeli supplement expansion has never stopped. this illegal is really supplement of magdalene has been inching closer towards palestinian homes hidden closer, a village in the north of the occupied west bank. and while palestinians fear that the new government is going to be green lighting more and more illegal is really supplements here in the west bank. the fear that their homes are going to be demolished to allow for a settlement to mushroom beta. how cool is the new government or not? it doesn't matter. the difference is that this one is more blunt. the previous government would implement plans on the ground and consider the west bank as israel land, but wouldn't advertise it. so they sounded more peaceful to the world. the construction
4:34 pm
you can hear behind me is happening in a settlement outpost. now of course, all supplements are considered illegal under international law, but those outposts are usually unrecognised by the israeli government. it's senior as a way for settlers to impose a staff to school on the ground, but from experience they usually get retro actively recognized. and this is what we are expecting in this new government. according to the human rights organization, kind of nevada, there are currently around $77.00 supplement outposts in the occupied west bank. more than half of them were built under the premier ship of benjamin netanyahu. in the years between 20172021. and the danger of these outposts is that they're in the middle of palestinian villages and inherited by violence, settlers known as price tag criminal groups. all of this is happening because the world is staying silent, palestinians of war and for decades,
4:35 pm
that is really start lens and the network of roads, an infrastructure associated with them. amount to silent and exception. and was the international community is still committed to a 2 state solution, palestinian, see that there are no lounge left for them to build a state on. so the us has joined a growing list of countries and pacing restrictions on travelers from china as beijing easiest corona virus policies. as of january, the 5th all passengers coming from china, even virus, the country will have to produce a negative covey test. similar measures have been announced in taiwan, india, malaysia, and japan. italy is also adopted the policy but says it will only work if it applies to the entire european union. a home call has scrapped most of its cov 19 restrictions following a similar move by mainland china. thralls are threatened to damage its reputation as international financial center. many business operators of welcome the move florence lou reports now from hong kong. people arriving in hong kong from the
4:36 pm
broad no longer have to take compulsory p c r tests. that's despite the territory still recording around $20000.00 proven 19 cases a day and the reaction among travelers is mixed. i was expect being our going to have obviously our desk, but it's good. it feels like it's back to normal. think it's increasing the cases. i think the implement that again like that timing to cancel it right now. maxine certificates will also become a thing of the past. previously, only those who had been vaccinated could anticipate in places such as restaurants and supermarkets. social distancing is also out. we can take away a few the tables and give people more room to stand or dance or what have you so. so we're looking forward to it. i think in the under public sector there's going to be a bit of,
4:37 pm
of worry for the 1st couple weeks. i don't think you'll see the mass rush of people coming out. i think it's gary more of a gradual thing. hong kong has largely followed chinese lead in tackling corona virus. it had some of the most stringent cove. it rules in the world, but it's lifting most of them just as china abandoned it 0 covet policy. earlier this month, we've been hearing from chambers of commerce up and down hong kong that they desperately need to have these restrictions removed, that they need to get back to a sense of normality. and in particular, we need to have visitors coming to hong kong on coast very dependent for tourists. but while the opening up of hong kong is largely welcomed here, some countries are being more cautious. japan has restricted passenger flights from here to says in airports. a decision, the hong kong government says, could affect tens of thousands of people. and if the number of cases continues to
4:38 pm
rise, more rules by other countries may follow. largely al jazeera hong kong global inflation has rocketed in 2022 level of rank, 2nd in our world bank assessment of countries hardest hurt by the rise and food prices. it's polly driven by the war in ukraine. but even before that the economy and currency were in free fall, st hotter explains from beirut. many lebanese now use motorcycle in the absence of a well organized public transport system and the rise in global fuel prices. it's the most affordable way to get around. the sharp evaluation of the local currency has made the situation worth a tank of fuel costs more than the minimum wage, which used to be the equivalent of $450.00. now it's not even worth $20.00. basic necessities are out of reach for many,
4:39 pm
especially since the nearly bankrupt state lifted subsidies on food and medicine. last year. my visual mother let us know work. we try to sell whatever we can, so that we can eat and drink. life is unbearable. authorities blame global inflation and the fall out from russia's invasion of ukraine. but lebanon also has its own problems. while we have an inflation live of 160 percent as for recent figures, so you have 90 percent related to the been use inflation while 10 percent maybe related to the word by the patient. this is mainly because of the color of the, of any form we have been printing just to cover for the government expenses. the government is hoping to increase revenues by hiking customs taxes. but economists warn the decision will cause a 5 to 10 percent spike in inflation in a country that relies heavily on imports. food prices have already increased by 700
4:40 pm
