7:06 am
still people within the occupied west back 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. 5 palestinians have been injured and attacks carried out by israeli saturday in the occupied west bank. it happened after a group of palestinians blocked a road that settle is often used in the town of bater. are seen in health officials say one of the victims is in a critical condition. ahmed ma has an update from ramallah. tensions are running high here and the occupied west bank in the wake of one of the deadliest is where the military incursions which killed mine palestinians, including an elderly woman and the genie in refugee camp. the situation has further
7:07 am
escalated after is where the settlers carried out 3 separate attacks. the settler 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 raids, the situation here a's dense and many locals and romanella believe that another into father isn't sites. but he's in the city of memphis, of released video showing the beating of unarmed black ban. let me give you a warning. you might find the image is disturbing. body count footage and cctv pictures show the moment police officers taser and beat terry nichols during his arrest officer. a traffic stop later died of his injuries. the 5 officers faced

several charges including murder and kidnapping. odyssey is given out a zone there is in memphis. that video, certainly very troubling. what we've seen is what appeared to be a routine traffic stop turned 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. debbie heinz is a trial lawyer and she's also a former baltimore prosecutor. she says, reform alone won't be enough to end police brutality. there definitely is a culture that is rooted in the police department that did not just start with
7:09 am
george floyd that did not start with frightening king has started long before that . and 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, we still don't have any national reform. everything is done on a piece nail type basis. but let me be clear, you didn't need, we didn't need national police reform in order for this incident. this murder, this brutal killing of mr. nichols to have occurred. this is just humanity. there is no, there is no way you would just need 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
7:10 am
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 beat down. so it's just no way that we forms are going to correct that. 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 did you give a police officer to be humane to treat your fellow man like a human being? you don't need reform for that. yes, we do the reform, but you don't need reform to correct what happened in the case of mister nichols, the us justice department is charged 3 men was taught him to kill a prominent american arabian activist, but accused of attempted assassination on money laundering, allegedly by, by people in the wrong writer, a woman's rights activists,
