6:02 am
palestinian president mahmoud abbas on choose day. lincoln's visit comes after days of violence in the occupied palestinian territory. our diplomatic editor, james bass, has more arriving at televi. they're poor, the u. s. secretary of state is visiting at a time of high tension, but with few expectations us diplomacy can do anything to help. he spoke about recent violence to take an innocent life and an act of terrorism is always a heinous crime. but to target people outside the place of worship is especially shocking. a reference to the death of 7 israelis near a synagogue at an east jerusalem settlement on thursday. it's notable he spoke about incidence in which his riley's died, but didn't mention the raid jeanine refugee camp last thursday. a day on which 10 palestinians were killed. before secretary blinkin got here,
6:03 am
there was another death, a palestinian man shot dead by israeli forces as he drove his car in the city of hebron. mister blinkin has met benjamin netanyahu many times before, but this is the 1st meeting since he became head of israel's most right wing government. ever. the secretary of state said there must be a future where israelis and palestinians can live peacefully side by side. we continue to believe that the best way to achieve it is through preserving and then realizing the vision of 2 states. as i said, of the prime minister. anything that moves us away from that vision is in our judgment detrimental to israel's long term security. and it's long term identity as a jewish and democratic state. but the reality is that mister netanyahu in his key ministers don't support the idea of a 2 state solution. he didn't mention palestinians once, and instead focused on the threat from iran, most of the international community have seen the true face of iran. they've seen the barbarism of this regime against its own people. they've seen how it exports
6:04 am
regression beyond its border and beyond the middle east. and i think there is a common consensus that this regime must not acquire nuclear weapons. secretary blanket will continue his meetings with israeli officials on tuesday. he'll also make a brief visit to ramallah to meet with the president of the palestinian authority mahmoud abbas. many in the international community would like the biden administration to take a more proactive diplomatic role in this conflict. but so far, there's no sign of a change in the u. s. position. james bays al jazeera, occupied east jerusalem. there are so, so there is in so on a neighborhood in occupied east jerusalem. he has more on the tensions between israelis and palestinians. the we can see that the constant bullying and the pro occasion is, is, is going on here. and the israeli forces are showing no sign off of the d escalation due to deescalate distribution here. so in sit when in this very pack
6:05 am
the area there are 63000 palestinians are living here. and the israeli government has already issued 4650 and demolishing orders. and if these orders are implemented, it's simply impractical. it means that there will be no palestinians left, you're, all of them are going to be forced to leave their hands and without knowing where to go. so right over there, you can see where the hell we're at this starting at the south of alex a mosque and they're, they're escalations conducted by the, by, by, by the israelis. and they said that they are looking for the remaining of the area of king davis. so through that escalations palestinians, i'd be forced to leave their homes right down here, down to the hill. this is al boston and you see the houses owned by palestinians. now these are no tortillas, are seen that there's houses are going to be demolished,
6:06 am
and the area is going to be turned into a national park. so up to the heel. it is a battle how're. and there at $116.00 demolish in, or there is from the israeli, or thought it is regarding battle. how were as well 3 more people have been fired in the city of memphis following the death of an armed black men at the hands of police. 5 officers already have been let go for beating tyree nichols during a traffic spot. he died 3 days later. gabriel alexander has more from memphis. well yeah, this investigation is very much continuing here in memphis. officials say that they are still in the early stages of it and more charges could be pressed against officials or people that were involved in this, in terms of these 3 new people that have been fired. they were part of the fire department and 2 of the 3 were emergency medical technicians or paramedics and
6:07 am
the other was an ambulance, or fire truck driver that was with them. they were fired, according to officials here, because as part of the investigation, they were some of the 1st responders that arrived at the scene. after tyree nichols laid on the ground helpless after he had been beaten for several minutes by those 5 police officers, all of whom have been fired and are now facing criminal charges. the fire department says they were fired because they did not render aid quick enough to tyree nichols as he laid their essentially fighting for his life. not only that, but the police department as well, has said another officer involved, other than the 5 that have been fired, has been placed on administrative leave. while this investigation continues,
6:08 am
this particular officer was one of the 1st that pulled over tyree nichols in what they initially said was a traffic stop that led to him, fleeing from the scene after being beaten there, and then beat and later at another scene. so this is very much a wide ranging investigation, and the officials here that are investigator are casting their net wide and far to figure out who all was involved and how they will be punished. a funeral has been hell for some of the 62 people killed in a blast in boxes, thousands, northwestern city of shower monday, many of those killed and injured and the suicide bombing. we're members of buckets on security services. the attacker managed to get past multiple checkpoints before detonating the device. the mosque. the commander from the rekey fell upon buckets on, also known as the boxes on the taliban said, it was responsible, but the group letter issued a statement denying involvement. come, all hider has more from the site of the blast in the shower. as you can say,

6:12 am
due to which they have disowned this attack. a 3rd possibility that this is all a drama should aid. the central leadership of the ttp is just using this at all faction to conduct such mascot attacks and then ultimately dissociating themselves, you know, after seeing how help people react to it. that is a code of conduct some guidance that the central leadership of the t d b has provided its commanders on the kinds of targets. dad permitted that guidance as they cleared the mosques. or, you know, it's not permitted to attack mosque even if that includes mosques of security forces. and the police say could be bad. the fact that this section of the dd, the went out to the police at the mosque, you know, the center leadership is dismayed by that targeting choice. and therefore,
