on the run. natasha. the name has been following the latest development from amana . any hope of this being a calm beginning to the holy month of ramadan, evaporated on this 1st saturday of the holy month with this shooting in hora. 2 soldiers were shot in a drive by shooting on saturday evening. they were near a military post. one soldier, according to the israeli military, has been severely injured. the other soldier is facing moderate injuries, and the hunt is on for the shooter or shooters. the popular front for the liberation of palestine has claimed responsibility in a message on telegram. in the immediate aftermath of the shooting, the main thoroughfare of who are out was closed. checkpoints going in and out of horror were also closed as were to surrounding checkpoints. shops were closed, people were prohibited. remember, this is a holy month and on

a saturday evening it would be typically that area would be quite full. people were prevented from moving on the main thoroughfare. and we were told again, as the israeli army moved in, in search of the shooter or shooters. there were clashes between palestinians and the israeli army. there were no reports of injuries. we've spoken to activists in the town. they say that the israeli army has moved out of hora, and there is a bit of calm that has been restored. but there's definitely very much a sense of calm for now. and the big question is, what kind of repercussions may people face in the city of hora? thousands of supporters. so former pakistani prime minister emron con, are running in the whole internet services were caught her head of people arriving . the government had bands gatherings in the city last month when he tried to hold an election event. i said they'd reports from the whole this writing was delayed.

it only took place after i knew 40 that again gave assurance as to the authorities, including deputy for fortune would remain peaceful not to have been affairs of clashes between his supporters and the police, including here in the whole side. iran pon house, there was some doctor about the turn out of this rally, but a put him on hold. people have come out in the month of ramadan was fussing throughout the day. and i was here in the hall over 10 years ago. the iran con, held his record breaking ruddy down into the pitch because mainstream had made a mysterious contended election since then has been removed, the prime minister in a vote of no copy. does that have gone. 1 to make them serious claims, he has said that there is a box to assassinate him. today is the 1st time that he will be giving speech behind a bullet proof street. the future battle really taking place in the country's coat . the provincial elections has been delayed until a non con, pulled up on the court to uphold the constitution. but the coalition government

wants to see him on con, standing court to answer for one over 100 cases against him. i think with him i can maintain this kind of momentum until october, and if he is found guilty of any of those charges against him, it could mean that it's not allowed to stand those election vague algebra. the whole focus on the vatican has returned the 3 pieces of the ancient parthenon temple to greece. they've been in the people collections for more than 200 years. greece is still trying to get the largest collection of pop, non sculptures returned from the british museum. very challenge reports like last pieces of a scattered jigsaw puzzle, finally returned to their origin. here the head of a boy, but also part of a horse's head and the head of a bearded man. 3 fragments of one of the wonders of ancient athens. a sculpted marble fries that once wrapped the path and on temple. now they're back in grief,

was allowed to take them from athens by greece's ottoman rulers, in the early 18 hundreds, the british museum says it will happily loan them to greece. but greece, which considers britons ownership of the marbles illegal, wont asked borrow items. it believes all rightfully greek. and so the argument has gone for decades. now, recent secret talks between the british museum and the greek government were rumored to be making progress on a complex deal. but a 963 law forbids the museum from giving away artifacts in its collection. a prime minister rich sumac says there are no plans to change this. so while some western collections are reconsidering the ownership of acquisitions made during the age of empires. for now, the british museum is not one of them. when he comes out to 0, london, when a number of german museums have agreed to return sacred objects looted from cameroon, during german colonial rule. but indigenous communities say it's
