for said in the past, it was more family oriented. now there is more activity regarding and more information being circulated about ramadan and boss thing by a social media. i feel so jackie hunter for i didn't know it is. thank it's coming from the trauma. our interpretation of it's lab is one that promotes peaceful coexistence, religious tolerance. i'd respect for every one. ah . sure, he's really settlers had been killed in a shooting attack in the occupied west bank. ah,

i'm 0 then. yeah. good to have you with us. this is al jazeera alive from dough, also coming up today. tensions escalating in the region is really airstrikes hit the gaza strip and lebanon with its military saying hamas is the targets. and for the 3rd straight night, israel uses force against palestinian worshippers at alex a mosque. and also the biden administration blames former president donald trump, for the chaotic withdrawal of us troops from afghanistan. ah, to that breaking news and another escalation in tension between israelis and palestinians. to his really settlers had been killed another seriously injured in a shooting in the northeast of the occupied west bank. this happened in alhambra, in the jordan valley region, or saw sir doris and occupied east jerusalem to pursue what happened. what can you tell us at this stage?

well, so far what noise from the israeli source is, according to the israeli, or tour it is 3, is rarely woman. the settlers were shot in the jordan valley area and one of the driver, the lady that was attacked, she lost the control of the car and heat. another man. so this, this is a shooting at tech. according to the israeli, or toward the saw 2 women or that and one is critically injured for now. so initially the read or talk to assess in this as a, as a traffic accident. however, later the said that this is an attack conducted by an attacker did identity is not clear yet, but we know that the israeli security forces have blocked the area. and now they started the man, how they compact conducting a men home to find the attacker. and also that of the report that of the losing the

control of the car the driver has run over another man. so that's also injured. but as of now, we know that 2 women are that and the, the attacker is being serviced by the rally security forces. so it is becoming times again sort of the initial report today or the statements from this rally side were showing the sign of the escalation of these at tech and also right behind me, you can see that people are paid and for this friday prayer. so houses of people already gathering here this, the i locks i'm more of a compound was the source of the passion that started on wednesday. and now thousands of people are gathering there and getting ready to conduct the friday. and that also could escalate another tension here because the palestinians here are seeing that if the israeli security forces decide to arrest people here or to attack to the years again that this could lead to have why the conflict ident. so

the situation is quite fragile. quite can see how was the gentlest efficient in the morning was that these regulatory fractions are going to deescalate. but that's, that's the recent attack and know that the, the behavior. what did that put off the israeli security forces off the train? you are going to show us what today's going to look like. are still you're going to keep a surprise, the developments and what's going on exactly where you are. all of this coming after this little violence coming after a violence in the lock them off, the compound islam, 3rd holiest site. the is really important. use the pond on palestinian worshippers arriving the morning prayers on friday. soon after hundreds of people gathered in the compound to protest against israel's actions were joined by myself, a bar, goofy. he or the secretary general of the policy and national initiative. you join

us from ramallah. you heard what resource was reporting on a lethal shooting attack near hummer. your reaction to that, sir, it's one of the side effects or that is also for the early autumn. they have provoked the feelings of palestine unions and all labs and all muslims. and today they are even nic and more restrictions, not only for muslims, but also what questions who are trying to celebrate to the last the audio there. we will go back to mr. barton with you soon as we can. i believe we are able to reconnect mr. burg with you, can you hear me? hello? yes, yes, i can hear you. ok. we lost your audio there for a 2nd. you were interrupted, mid mid answer. carry on please,

sir. ok, what i was saying, that is what we see today is that is of daily autumn you behavior inside dock. so most brutally beaten people the out of the $400.00 people while they were worshipping. if this had happened inside the most inside the synagogue, what would have been the reaction? they have, the feelings of all palestinians, muslims, and arabs. but they also are provoking the feelings of christians today when they are trying to prevent them from celebrating eastern and jerusalem. the palestine news, this is a situation that is, that is other of our long term occupations along the modern history and a system of discriminatory apartheid and the racism for a 2nd thing that killing settlers is an appropriate response. no, i'm not saying i am not an advocate violence, you know me well,

but i am saying that violence is a symptom of the disease and the disease has been the long occupation of palestinian lands. the disease has been the system of apartheid under oppression. and the fact that the only people have chosen a government that has fascists and it's like being viewed on small bridge. these guys are saying bluntly that they are trashes. they are saying that the palestinians have to leave or die or accept a life of subjugation to the bullet to the radio pression. this is the cause of the problem. and let me remind you that there is really army $96.00 ballasting in since the beginning of this year, including 17 children and one old woman. this is the what we see today is that action action to the is the only government to behavior for the last 3 days. have seen tension spike over who can access along the mosque when and for how long is

there a fix to this? and i mean this immediate problem that is no effect unless israel allows us to reach the city. and we don't want to visit because we want to be in east 200, which was fine as part of the occupied list then. but they are not allowing more than 95 percent of the palestinians to the, to the only people who live in jerusalem or people who live inside this room can go there. but the rest of us are prevented. i live, i live for 15 years and years that i'm working as i'm the conductor. i was born in july and i am prevented from region years since 2005. if i want to go, i try to get to docs almost 2 weeks ago. they told me to go back like most people. and then if i, if i wanted to go, i have to sneak in. this is the only way that he ality is that the vast majority of palestinian muslims and christians are not allowed to do to the holy places are not

allowed to worship peacefully inside judas and docs on those are wholly subject conscience. that is the reality. and even when they say that they allow people above the age of 65 to cross many out and back, claiming that there isn't a security, isn't it? so at this moment in time, in light of the clashes that we've seen this week, it lacks a mosque in light. also of this latest development, the killing of 2 jewish settlers. what is your message to is really on the one hand and palestinians on the other. my message is that the road to peace is easy and simple. it starts with ending because illegal is a little que patient of palestinian land. it's bad, so the accepting us as equal human beings. it starts with an israeli decision to eliminate the system of apartheid under pressure of the palestinian people. nor

colonial system has lasted. and if time is really stink, that palestinians will accept a life of subjugation to their oppression and enslavement in a system of apartheid the wrong and mistaken the road to peace is simple. they should end occupation and settlement active. it is, and the system of apartheid allow us to note if you choose to come back home to the land, there have been deprived somebody to for so many years. and then we can have peace, nothing from what we say is against is that i know jewish people as people. but we are struggling against the occupation against apartheid again, fascist likes, northridge and being viewed who are also trying to destroy even the israelis system . and i think many israel is now already alive that these fascists who are in the government now when israel out of that isn't of this long term occupation and the system move out of time that produced eventually fascism and israel and stuff along

with the secretary general and the palestinian national initiative. thank you for joining us on the program. thank you so much. now the attack any occupied westbank comes after a series of air strikes. carried out why the is really military in garza. israel's military says it hits sights belonging to hamas that's after it's i don't defend system intercepted several rockets fired from the strip. well let's go to gaza now you me. the side is standing by bringing up to speed on what happened overnight in the early morning hours. ah, yes, so says last night to israel warplanes pounded the gaza strip in different areas at the same time. bombarding more than 10 targets and almost all the evacuated military camps belonging to hamis. in addition to agriculture lands, no casualties were reported. the minister of health did say that

a duty our children hospital was partially damaged due to the intense targeting around the area of where the hospital is. also a residential home was severely damaged because of the targeting of agriculture lands. next to that home, buried as of rockets were launched from the gaza strip to its israel towns and anti aircrafts, where also fired on the israel. drones and crafts are una, aside reporting from gaza. thank you very much. and israel has also launched airstrikes into parts of southern lebanon and claims to have hit also hit a mass targets there. the military says it's retaliation for rockets fired interest rail on thursday. or local witnesses say the missiles hit an open area near a palestinian refugee camp. xena xena hunter is in southern lebanon entire shows, the scene where you are and what you've seen. well yes,

we are at one of the sites that was targeted by israeli plains overnights, approximately 4 in the morning. we are not allowed to move any further because the lebanese army is now investigating the area. there is a big crater here and it's an open field. it's one of like i mentioned for a target. now there's really army said it targeted positions belonging to the palestinian group, hamas in southern lebanon. israel is blaming the palestinian group for launching the barrage of rockets into northern israel late on thursday, even though there has been no claim of responsibility. it was a serious escalation. one of the most serious escalations along the border since the 2006 war between israel and has below. but it's clear, as well as response was limited and measured. and according to the united nations

peacekeeping force, they have been in contact with the different parties on the ground, neither 11 on, nor israel once war. so tensions have been diffuse, this round of hostilities is over, but this is clearly a political message. and that message is, israel continues to launch attacks against palestinians attack worshippers. then palestinian groups have supporters across the region. the so called axis of resistance will open other fronts. zayna, unsurprisingly, the lebanese government not best pleased that its territory has been targeted by israel. the foreign mysteries now saying they are going to file a complaint with the un security council. tell us more about that. yes, usually lebanese foreign ministry files complaints at the un security council whenever there's an israeli air strike or if israeli planes violate lebanese aerospace, more often than not nothing, nothing changes and,

and nothing happens. as you can see behind me, the un peacekeepers have now also arrived at the carry out investigations because the lebanese army, as well as the united nations, have still not pointed the blame at, at any party. yes, 11. the government is concerned. it doesn't want an escalation. the lebanese government is hoping that pensions will be refused. this is a cast strap state nearly bankrupt. it cannot afford another war, but neither can has below. yes, security sources say that palestinian groups are most likely behind this operation the launching of rockets yesterday. but they wouldn't have done it without the support and approval of hezbollah and as well as to doesn't want any adventures at this point in time. because of course, it will, it will, it will be blamed. many people here cannot afford to put food on the table. and that's why many analysts believe that the best card to use right now when sending

a political message is through the palestinians. as they know, hold reporting from southern lebanon, thank you very much. still head on al jazeera. i'm rob reynolds in los angeles with a story about california's efforts to determine whether reparation is due to african americans living in this state. ah hello, welcome to the academy. international focus got the usual showers there across se asia. they found a heads. the storms rumbling away, could see some wet weather. just noticed this little disturbance out towards that to western side of the pacific l. fate. somewhere to whether to was the philippines as we go through the next day or 2. otherwise, it really is a case of business as usual. some live the showers there in to where cambodia

ah ah ah ah ah, watching al jazeera reminder of our headlines to his release had been killed

another seriously injured in a shooting in the northeast of the occupied westbank is really army says the attacker has targeted a vehicle near the hamas settlement. says the victims are women is really forces have carried out airstrikes in the gaza strip and lebanon. they say they have hit hamas targets in response to rockets fired into israel on thursday. locals in southern lebanon, say an area near a palestinian refugee camp was hit. and more violence at alex, a mosque in occupied east jerusalem. israeli forces used the towns on palestinians arriving from morning prayers. afterwards hundreds gathered in the compound to protest against israel's actions. while the spokesman for the un secretary general has raised concerns about further escalation concerning the situation between lebanon and israel. i can show that we condemned to multiple rockets being fired from lebanon, inter northern israel. today, we are joel actors jackson, maximum restraint, the u. n. inter enforce in lebanon remains in contact with authorities on both

sides of the blue line. and we urge the parties to liaise with our peacekeepers and avoid any unilateral action that could further escalate the situation. and the us state department said israel has legitimate security concerns and the right to defend itself, but it has also called for com. rosalyn. jordan has more from washington well there is great concern of both from officials here at the u. s. state department as well as over at the white house. so there had been a lot of fear that to given the yell convergence of ramadan of passover, which is the 1st day and of a holy week in the western christian calendar. that there would be an increase of violence around alex on mosque. this is some of what the spokesperson for dont patel told reporters here at the state department earlier on thursday. we are concerned by the scenes out of jerusalem,

and it is our viewpoint that it is absolutely vital that the sanctity of holy sites be preserved. we emphasize the importance of upholding the historic status quo at the holy sites in jerusalem, in any unilateral action that jeopardizes the status quo to us is unacceptable. and we call for restraint coordination and calm during the holiday season. now there haven't been a, any, a direct conversations between state department officials and israeli and palestinian officials at this hour. but that said, the u. s. is going to be very much engaged with it is really an palestinian counterparts because of the concern of, of a possible escalation of violence going into the weekend. that is not something that you us wants to see. and again, that message of trying to engage in restraint, trying to avoid escalation, trying to avoid provocations. certainly those are all things that

u. s. officials would be delivering in terms of messages to the israelis and to the palestinians. and the white house is blamed. donald trump's administration for the u. s. military's chaotic withdrawal from afghanistan in 2021. a report submitted to congress says president joe biden was constrained by his predecessors. decisions. however, it does acknowledge that he government should have started pulling out civilians earlier. president biden was widely criticized for the chaos surrounding the evacuations. when the taliban took cobble, the french president amended mccoys urging chinese leader shooting paint to reason with russia to help end the war in ukraine. a coin is on a 3 day state visit the china robin bright reports, french president emanuel macro being given the owner of a state visit. welcome by his chinese counterpart, she's in pain. one of your most influential leaders coming to ask china to exert its influence on russia to bring an end to europe,

a peaceful resolution and as willing to work with france to maintain the rationality of the international community and avoid actions that could further escalate the crisis. or let things get out of control. in a show of european unity macros accompanied by european commission president ursula on de leon who has taken a much tougher line on china's failure to condemn the russian invasion. the europeans are looking at the very least to dissuade china from supplying russia with arms. we also count on china not to provide any military equipment directly or indirectly to russia, because we all know arming the aggressor would be against international law. and it would significantly harm our relationship, the signing of lucrative prey deals on this trip is seen as beijing's attempt to maintain good european relations, even as ties with the us sour. i hope china will tell press the micro

on the one hand and then tell madam of the a on the other hand that it is absolutely important to have a european perspective which may or may not be exactly identical to that of the united states, chinese and european leaders hoping traditionally strong crate links can lead to a diplomatic breakthrough. robert pride al jazeera and russia says china has strong potential to serve as a mediator. yet it sees no prospects for peace in ukraine. the criminal says the situation in ukraine is too complex and requires moscow to continue its military campaign. comments come as french president amended in the co visit staging, hoping to dissuade china from supporting rushes. war china has imposed sanctions on us organizations that hosted, tie one president during her recent visit, saying when met us,
