5:06 am
we've heard in the past from hasn't bahamas from islamic jihad, there are still people within the occupied west like to come out and protest peacefully, but also to fight against the occupation. now the event in jeanine have shocked people here in garza, as long as you had is likely to have reacted to that. there were 2 rockets that fell in asheville on in, in israel. that took place in the early hours, very, very early hours of friday. 05 of palestinians have been injured in attacks carried out by israeli settlers in occupied west bank happened off to do the palestinians blocked a road, but settlers often used in the town of bater postilion health officials say one of the victims is in a critical condition when maha has more from ramallah, tensions are running high here and occupied westbank in the wake of one of the
5:07 am
deadliest as well and military and cogent, which killed mine, palestinians, including an elderly woman in the genie and refugee camp. the situation has further escalated after is where the settlers carried out 3 separate attacks. the secular attacks are not unprecedented, but they came hard on the heels of an attack on a synagogue and occupied east jerusalem earlier. the palestinian authority has decided to stop any kind of. busy security coordination with as well and protest at the janine rate. the situation here is dense and many locals and romanella believe that another intifada isn't sites. police in the u. s. city of memphis have released video showing the beating of an unarmed black man. a warning you may find the image is disturbing. 40 cam footage on the c. c t. v video
5:08 am
shows the moment police officers tasted and beat tyran nichols. during his arrest after a traffic stop. 5 officers faced several charges including murder and kidnapping. well, from all that, so speak to gabriel at his on the he joins us live from memphis. gabriel, a distressing video with fears of the reaction. that's right. i'm actually in downtown memphis right now. and on a normal friday night, this would be bustling with activity of people at restaurants and some of the shops here. but as you can see, with the exception of this trolley car behind me, it is very quiet. it's totally deserted. and that's because there was real fears of potential violent protests that could break out after this video was released. so a lot of these businesses simply closed down early for the night. but as you can tell that the situation is,
5:09 am
is very quiet on the street here. and those fears have not been realized that the video very much though is very troubling. i'm sure that video, certainly very troubling. what we've seen is what appeared to be a routine traffic stop turn into something very violent when police officers in circled tyree nichols the 29 year old father of 4 and beat him relentlessly for several minutes as he cried for help. he suffered injuries, he was taken to a hospital critical condition and died. 3 days later, all 5 officers involved were fired from the force and also arrested and face criminal charges. and gabriel does the video reveal more about the apparent circumstances that lead to the violence it
5:10 am
does, it's a long video. it's in 4 separate clips and well over 30 minutes long. it appears to be an initial traffic stop. at least that's what the police claim. but they've pulled tyree nichols out of the car and tackled him to the ground. he was clearly asking for some help. he then ran off and fled, but on foot, his lawyers and his family members say he fled because he was scared of what the police could do to him. later, 5 other police officers caught him in a residential neighborhood on a dark street. it was actually only about a block away from where his mother lives. and that is where the real violence occurred when they tackled him to the ground and beat him relentlessly with a baton and also kicking him as he cried out for his mother. that seems to be what the video shows, but it's not only that, it's also appears that after this several of the paramedics that arrived were very
5:11 am
slow to render any aid as well. all of this certainly is going to be part of an investigation and potentially a trial. if these 5 police officers plead not guilty and it does go to a trial, which is probably expected to happen. gabriel, thanks for that update in memphis. will their behinds is a trial lawyer for what? baltimore prosecutor and maryland assistant attorney general, she joined the sly from baltimore, maryland by scott, welcome to the programmer. firstly, what are your thoughts? having seen this distressing video? you know, i watched all or parts of the video, it's very difficult to put it in words. i mean it's, sometimes things are just so rick, so brutal that you cannot even make a word or sentence to describe it. but what it did show is these police officers
5:12 am
could showed man's inhumanity towards band. it looked as if, if to put it in the best perspective, as if they were animals attacking another animal. because that's what it really look like. mister nichols is very frail, he's 63 and he's 100. he was a 140 pounds and these are 5 heavy officers that were kicking him, beating him, beating him with their baton, punching him like he was a punching bag. one officer kicked mister nichols so hard that at the end he was limping from all the kicking that he had done to mister nichols body. they take him so much that the officers ended up having to pour water over their eyes because it was so much hazy of mister nichols. it is just no way to put it in words how thick this video was. but thank god for the really the c t v video because with the
5:13 am
police body camps showed a lot of movement. it didn't always show what was really happening, but the overhead cam cetera. one of the street that are this basically there to detect crime and let's be clear, this was a crime that occurred. that's where we actually were able to see what the officers were doing to him. but he was able to forgive me even with the knowledge of all the these cameras, this incident still occurred. is there a certain culture in sections of the police force that's hard to shake off? well, that's the whole problem in general, and i don't want to paint every police officer as today because there is no every you're all in any profession that's bad. but there definitely is a culture that is rooted in the police department that did not just start with george floyd that did not start with rodney king. it started long before that. and
5:14 am
that culture is very ingrained in the police department. and that's why you saw that these police officers were black because it is the culture of the police department, not the color of the police officer that is doing the wrong against black americans and other people of color. will this lead to more demands for national police reform and hopefully accountability well, that was the hope back in 2020. when then joe biden was running for president, and we had already had seen what happened with george floyd. and so now we're at 2023 and here's a another instance and we still don't have any national reform. everything is done on a piece mail type basis. but let me be clear, you don't need, we didn't need national police reform in order for this incident. this murder,
5:15 am
this brutal killing of mr. nichols to have occurred. this is just humanity. there is no, there is no way you would just leave reforms to basically have what happened to him not have occurred. the police always talk about they, it's dangerous out there in the community. and they just want to be able to go home and be safe. and that is exactly, that is exactly what mister nichols was trying to do. he was 80 yards away from his mother's house after getting this brutal b. so it's just no way that we forms are going to correct that, because as you say, that's the culture that has been ingrained in the police departments for many, many years. and you just have to route out the officers like these 5 officers that were on the scene because i don't think any type of training. what type of training do you give a police officer to be humane to treat your fellow man like
5:16 am
a human being? you don't need reform for that. yes, we do need reform, but you don't need reform to correct what happened in the case of mister nichols said behinds. we appreciate your time. thank you. thank you. was to the head down to sarah crowds return to the leading show case for independent cinema. have the highlights from the sundance film festival. ah, now the record breaking cold in korean peninsula in japan has gone now, but it was still snowing because it's still fairly cold. this is at the capital of south korean, not huge amount to stay, but he's the coldest, persisting here. the coldest at around is crossing the open waters and therefore there's going to be more snow falling. less so i think in sol more so in hong sure
5:17 am
. and hawk harder. but i wouldn't use the word blizzard. i just would increase the amount of snow that is falling. the ab hardy is still ca, but not as cold as it was. and that's true throughout china as well. tim, recovering to where they should be at least in shan chung, do not. so in shanghai still cold here, it's still cold in hong kong, only didn't tie, pay you that on shore breeze, giving you $30.00 degrees, some improvement in temperatures, some lessening the wind. when we get to sunday, the south of that and the cold wind tends to exaggerate the amount of rain mostly over the water. but the central philippines looks wet. the same is true, potentially malaysia and just officer marshall. that circulation could turn into something that we need to watch. we will do that. otherwise for a deer baglan package, i looks generally fine, but there's an increase in the shower likelihood in good europe, roger stan, and up in the north of pakistan. you got some movement in the snow was falling in the high ground. ah
