and as far as the reports expense are wanting, the tourism is also contributing somebody's water shortage. the lakes and photons, so left behind by now extinct volcano has make this area in central body, the hots of the islands, agricultural production, duties worthy and his ancestors have been following the land here for generations. but in recent years, he's been confronted with a new challenge. water shortages must certainly bodies have the something often in 3 of the few that is set up a 1000 and fill out a p r. when would you be like the excess good on the southeast side by drilling into delana to doesn't we not the steven all know, floods are coming from some space started decreasing. the tourism industry consumes about 65 percent of bodies ground water demands to teaching this water source faster than it can be with finished. when too much ground water has been defeated from coastal acquisition, salt,

water flows in and over time contaminates the local and g o that's been studying the issue for years as want of a crisis. i believe dropbox and how do you, what we used to do is what that is thought for all them for the a. so going on, if you don't do something about the salt water in pollution duty, i mean they've had the play experience problem in the future. climate change is also affect to the large patch of grass behind me used to be covered in water. but water levels have dropped drastically in the last 5 years. and as you can see, the shore line has receded by more than a 100 meters. the body's water problems is not just a matter of quantity, but also quality is a for waste management system is choking. it's rivers and organizations setup to clean bodies with this says it has collected more than a 1000000 kilograms of plastic since it was founded in 2020. you know,

we're being confronted with way more volumes and yearly in a way, more different types of plastics, more sashes. and that's a real issue that's feels like, you know, the problem will ever stop. there was an urgent need for body to restore its war to sources. the foundation has helped communities build recharge wells to connect way more to which has been injected back into equity. but it says more sustainable water management practices are needed in the longer term before bodies, reputation as an island. paradise is lost. florence louis alger 0, bali, indonesia, and that set for me for now, the news continues here on out a 0. after the listening post to stay with the pre us

a call was of insight to people around the world. this has been going on for a number of our report. 32 and international perspective to try to explain to global audience how this could impact said like, this is an important part of the world and how to do this. very good. the bringing the news to the world from here, 8 weeks now into the war on gaza. we're looking at multiple angles of this story. and the way it's been covered, starting with artificial intelligence as an as rating weapon of the real life to death. consequences for knowledge is really released by some are telling stories that are improving very inconvenient for this rating and the west. what should be a safer space is arrested with violence and other punts is ready to survey the more than 2 months if it's really bombing. i've turned the gaza strip into

a health scape, entire neighborhood had been white that made uninhabitable us with more than 16000 palestinians killed. it is a population on the right. and on folding genocide and we now know that the unprecedented killing of gauze is being powered, at least in part by a i, and is really artificial intelligence system that generates new targets at a rate we have never seen before. one form or is really intelligence officer, liking the ai system to a mass assassination factory. reports about that technology have now been published by 2 is really news outlets. 972. and the local call for year is randy military has been looking the countries tech sector to find a more and more ways of managing its occupation of palestinians. and a, i is just the latest high tech weapons in what has turned into a barbaric is really war. on gosh, one bombing after another, the mass killing and displacement of palestinian civilians. the gaza strip has been

a testing ground for israel surveillance technologies for a i have hard me for weapons, time, shallow shop. you will have get tobacco popular technology that you'll see inside of fi films or in some the soap in horror movies. but it is the reality of, of many palestinians on the ground. and it is where the biblical meets the dystopian the gospel. that's what the is really military calls. the artificial intelligence system it is deployed in boston does not. if you come in or push buttons that is done by a human, it just generates the target. more than ever before. the latest revelations about the gospel were provided by to was really news of tribes. 97 to magazine and local call. they have unmasked how these really military is loosened.

its already permissive constraints on the killing of palestinian civilians. as one source told 972, nothing happens by accident. when a 3 year old girl is killed in a home in gaza, it's because someone in the army decided it wasn't a big deal for her to be kept. everything is intentional. we know exactly how much collateral damage there is in every home. and when the gospel system was ruled out, it was said to be one of the state of the art, a systems that would allow the military to pinpoint targets quickly and accurately . it's allowed the army to essentially target at a mass scale, what, what soldiers have described as a mass assassination machine. which means that they're not just pinpointing military infrastructure, they're bombing civilian homes. to have tree i, systems, which operating concert. we have the commission system which collects information

with the 2nd layer over the say i system which is called a fire factory, which analyzes the data. and to the gospel system which produces possible maybe 3 targets, it must be stressed that every military targets, which is a tech, from the era, by the idea of go through an analysis of both intelligence officers and legal advisors. so why don't a systems produced potential targets at the end of the day? these are human beings, which are authorizing them this is not the 1st we've heard of this really military. harnessing a technology in 2021. it's called it's bombing campaign in gaza. the world's 1st b, i war, one months into this war, the military released a statement about it's a i powered target factory and its ability to produce reams of mos targets radically. the language in that statement, the talk of precise attacks and the minimal harm on civilians has been decimated by

972, as journalists with the help of its sources current and former is really intelligence officials. one told 97 to the emphasis is on quantity and not quality. others talked of a significant expansion of targets beyond military warrants. the term the israelis now use is power targets, meaning public buildings, universities, off a library of mass destruction that is really forces in godson have been proudly posting on why prior to this war power targets where we're, we're not so central to military doctrine and strategy. the emphasis was really on precision bombing, so we're seeing those kinds of limits on civilian deaths kind of go out the window with this new tactic of causing as much destruction and as much for as possible to put pressure on him on what this means for cause and because that didn't know where

his actually say from is really targeting, and it goes to show how this current floor is really shaped by a desire for revenge and retribution. we have seen agonizing videos of a fathers and mothers holding the dead bodies of their children and babies showing the rest of the world what israel's bank of targets look like. the system spits out hundreds of targets under the permits that those are a mouse or is limited to have targets. many of those so called targets are just basic innocent civilian infrastructure to the family. they were not doing anything suddenly, right? this is so i was for witnessing every single day in the and with israel considers ministry targets are used to, according to the testimonies from is there any officers in still shock and

suffering on palestinians in order to turn against hamis to inflict as much violence and destruction among civilians and their infrastructure. in order to we can eliminate the fabric of society. these really government from the defense minister to the prime minister to many other senior officials have said in plain terms that they hold the entire population of gaza, responsible for the october 7th attacks. it's an entire nation out there. that is possible, it's not to distract or take about severely. it is not the way where not the where i'm not involved. it's absolutely not true. and their actions indicates that they are punishing that entire $2200000.00 population of cause for the actions of an ass . well, it's actually the question. i don't know that is collective punishment. that is a textbook we're a crime. so this report does shed new light into what's taking place,

but it is in line with the actions and words of these really government officials, whichever articulated a criminal intent to commit mass atrocities. having long developed the means to track and relocate gardens. israel has been dropping leaflets on ordering them in arabic to leave their homes for so called safe stones in the south, which is real, has also repeatedly bought. one of the latest leaflets comes with a q r code that takes palestinians to a map of gaza, curved up into numbers squares some safe. some not. one aid worker likened it to a macabre game of battleships in which terrified civilians will be left guessing which square will save their life. these really government has issued a q r code and a more detailed map that it says is aimed at. facilitating evacuations of civilians in gaza, but to provide a q r code to

a population that's been under rooms let most bombardment for 2 months that has had their access to the internet um to electricity charged their phones. cut is a sick joke. international humanitarian law is clear that state parties must take feasible precautions to protect civilians including issuing warnings, but issuing a warning when there is no safe place to go in. gaza is not in effect of warning and is not in compliance with the international humanitarian law. so the general purpose of this map is actually to avoid civilian harm and try to help them to move into savior areas. and they think that the way that the smith is being perceived in so outlets is missing the point. it is about saving by this thing in life. because the idea for the much easier a life of simply attacking that's coming from

a former legal advisor to the is really military and the ministry of justice. but it fails to square with reality. the evidence on the ground, the in defensively high civilian desktops, the appalling number of children killed. it is modern day, is really my phone, which likes the line about israel somehow having the most moral army in the world. what israel does have is the technology to enforce a system of domination over palestinians. what amnesty international calls automated apartheid that includes artificial intelligence systems that israel is using to help bomb garza back to the stone age while, insisting that it helps save the lives of innocent palestinians, rather than making it easier to take from the israeli government with or without automation is carrying out grave abuses against palestinians. they have systematically unlawfully killed palestinians and situations that go beyond what

internationally mat, terry and law authorizes their increasingly not even going through the motions of showing why their actions comply with international law. these are not accidents. automating an approach that authorizes on lawful killings certainly presents height and risk of harm to civilians. the gaza strip and the occupied palestinian territories have become a testing laboratory in every sense of the word. there is just some the no limitations to the extent that israel can test these technologies against palestinians. i think their objective is clear and that is the an i elation of, of palestinians in the gaza strip and making gaza uninhabitable. these technologies that are used now in gaza, we should probably upgrade the term from automated offer tied to ultimate in

genocide the the release of his really hostages, taken by hum moss and held captive since october 7th has created some challenges for the nothing. yeah. who government and it's messaging the is ready media have gone wall to wall with their coverage of this story. and mean actually robbie is here with more. richard using the 70 pause and fighting late last month. i'm austin has been exchanged hostages. the story has dominated israeli headlines, but at least it varies among them, teenagers, women, and some elderly. well, they've said that they was subjected to physically violence, including meetings and degradation, and how most captivity. however, some of the most explosive headlines have been the criticisms of these really government nicht audio from a close to a meeting between that at least hostages and 5 minutes to make me yahoo. and his cabinet showed just how acrimonious the encounter was the

palestinian hostages. many of them just young boys in the teens when they were taken in have also emerged with stories of life in say, the prisons did without charges. many have spoken about how they were deprived of basics, such as food involved and repeatedly shocked, accumulated and degraded by that is really captain model is obviously doing well there. so do you wanna sell a shipment? gets the shut up and put them in, but i would just, if i really didn't see the clean, got it the result going back to how the hostage and additive is unfolding it isn't until this past week. the next yahoo government has thoughts to control the media interactions without duct. he's betting people before they would go on at basing them and talking points. however, the number of hostages released now has made them harder to control. and with each testimony, each pointed criticism. the story has become harder to contain bikes, me throughout this war. israel has said that it's goal in gaza is to destroy from

us. but it's really a tax on palestinians of also escalated on the west bank, where homos has no authority or military presence. that violence is usually provoked by his manufacturers. prior to october 7th, almost 200 palestinians had been killed on the west bank in the past 10 months. that number has more than doubled since monday and bought a booty is a palestinian journalist based in ramallah. she's been interviewed by multiple media outlets about what's happening on the west bank and, and the war on garza. and some of those exchanges like this one with the u. k. channels kind is wills and been tested, told dozens of how the citizens are killed. we call it a slice, a wife cold in the this time, but uh yeah, no, no, i'm talking about in 2000, but could you just i'm so confident in the 1st time i'm talk matters. yeah. if you would like to talk about in the at least come with me with the right information,

please maddy, i'm about to go to joins us now from ramallah, ms barcode t vat exchange that we just saw on sky news in the interviews that you've done. and the ones that you've seen on this topic since october 7th. how typical was that exchange that moment in the way international journalists attempt to troll palestinians, and the legitimize, as well as deny the crimes against them has not only become vicious in the way that journalists are framing it like that interview. but it has increased and become leased. so in a way that it is a complete pro genocidal stance by journalist that claim to be objective. that claim to be non partisan. that claim to be supporting the truth to support accurate accuracy for their audiences. but it's not just common, it is being encouraged by editors and policy makers,

whether directly or in directly. so you don't see that as someone not fully understanding the context and bringing the context to the interview. you see that more as an intention absolutely, as journalist is our job to do our due diligence prior to bringing in n one who is giving a testimony. um, so to claim ignorance requires you to quit your job and go and learn. let's talk about the west bank where you live. it's always been heavily surveilled. hebron is often described as exhibit a in the modeling for automated is really a part time. what have you seen in the way of surveillance and any ass escalation on the west bank since october 7th? of course, we have seen an escalation of surveillance across the west bank as well as for palestinians with his rarely citizenship, which we tend to indicate from the narrative of the ethnic cleansing happening. but the surveillance within the west bank is not just invasive. it is at levels of

being lethal. first you collect the data, you insert cameras on every single street where you have 5 cameras on every corner, keeping track of palestinians. you gather a car plate numbers in a big database of every single palace thing and driving which car um to know the movements as we have seen, many of this as a nation's being carried out by these really military are happening in people's cars. so what we're seeing now is just an escalation, intensification, and then emboldened to carry out step number 2 of israel's surveillance operation. and that is kill who we find. and this is all under the claim of having information for palestinian terror activities. when in fact, it's just israel trying to cripple polish, thinking well to cripple policy in more i'll and that it for goes to the claim to liberation the demands to be free and the end of the as rarely occupation since

october 7th journalists from around the world have flown into the end of the region . a lot of them are still based in israel. some of them haven't betted with the is really military to get in the gaza. how difficult is it for journalists to get into the west bank? and for those who haven't been to the west bank to cover the story, what are they missing? it's relatively difficult for journalists to enter the west bank only in comparison to previous times. but israel is placing restrictions and is assigning things like minders to different bureau chief and international reporters in the region. and that is someone that responds and operates under the command of these really military to attempt and co worse manipulate, as well as pressure journalist to cover in a certain angle or to deny information from audiences. but none the less journals still have the capacity to challenge this and come into the west bank. the persons

that they are bringing on to speak on the situation are the very people that are committing the crimes against palestinians that is really military spokespersons. that is, is really policy makers and settlers, and at the same time, negating the palestinian testimony. and if they do speak with palestinians, it is always an attempt to frame a 2 sided some. but there is no 2 sides to this. not just because it's a false equivalence between colonizer and colonized, but because journalists are only showing one side and that is the, is rarely sites. and unfortunately, what we have seen more than that is integration. and a denial of the information and news that local journalists have as though that is inferior, rather than recognizing that local journalists are the experts on the situation even though their lives are increased. risk from is really repression, as we have seen. and they're targeting an essay. so these layers contribute to the misinformation. these layers contribute to allowing global complicity persists and

sustain um what we are saying and palestine. many western and international media outlets simply brand this as a war between israel and how mos, how accurate is that framing? given everything that we've been hearing from is where the officials on the record targeting civilians in gaza. how accurate is the framing? how dangerous is, as it is so dangerous to take what is happening to palestinians and reduce it to the title of an impasse israel more. this is not a war between from us and israel. this is a war against palestinians sort of frame as that is a reductionist approach. and it is an attempt to continue the illustration of palestinians as terrorist because of the, the association that was made of what, how nice is we see these really military, they closed down a printing shop,

downtown drama, just this morning. and the flyer on the door that they plastered was how mass equals isis. so it goes to show you how manipulative that narrative is. and then there is no mention of because they being besieged for close to 2 decades. there is no mention of the same thing happening in the as the right now has happened before at a smaller scale. because what we have seen is transcending old trends of violence that we palestinians have witnessed. or we have witnessed in the region since 1948. so to claim that it is a, him, us, and israel war is either an inability to actually do the due diligence and look into the context and explain that to your audience. or it is intentional. and that means you are being complicit in gen side. one last question for you. we've seen some amazing journalism coming out of gaza palestinians to many a form of paid with their lives, making a name for themselves,

getting the recognition that they deserve. can you give us a few names of some good follows of palestinian journalists on the west bank? people whose work is worthy of our following. you okay. you need another moment. take your time. yeah, just one second. take your time. it's so difficult to speak about journalists here, tell me about it, considering just targeting. yeah, it's hard to make. and as a reporter, you know, we, i think we forget that these are peers and it also, you know, we're not advocating just for the protection of the journalist, but as reporters and transfer, advocating for ourselves to, to remain safe. but in terms of coverage, i think there are multiple reporters and news organizations that are actually going

against the grain and going against the restrictions that are being imposed by editorial policies abroad. at least it's just data has been doing incredible coverage of what's been happening. all across palestine, not just present in the west bank, but in its entire context. we, there are organizations such as mando wise, which has also been reporting excellent in print uh on the west banks. we have the middle east eye that has also been showcasing excellent reporting on the west bank as well as highlighting and covering that this information and miss translation that has been happening within international media organizations. but i mean, in terms of individuals, you can see the works of people accessing the other line. you can see the works of how much is good, although he is not here, but he is able to amplify

a lot of the coverage that is being sent from local journalists abroad. but yes, i'm sorry, i don't have maybe 2 specific names. that's fine. that's fine. maria, i'm about to go to thank you for joining us today here at the listening calls. thank you for one final note now on 2 more is both still ongoing and the different way the players are portrayed in the mainstream news media. at the end of 2022 time magazine revealed its person of the year ukrainian president below to meet as a landscape. the lensky has been faxed it in the western media for leading the ukrainian ward effort against russia and its occupation. a mazda is a tax on october 7th, and the resulting is ready were on gaza. have knocked ukraine out of the headlines . it's the biggest story on the planet. and time magazine has just named it's

person of the year for 2023. taylor swift, musician and entertainer. time calls itself a news magazine. it's the choice of a singer as it's person of the year at a time like this with the humanitarian stakes. so high is a tone deaf as a come. we'll see you next time. here at the listening cost, the latest news as it breaks many of the people here celebrating, but they say that there are celebrations, or saw, i say the number of skilled block been killed in gods with detailed coverage by a release of those health concepts through all of his riley's, i've been following every 5th of this thing and phyllis gen and as of most children will survive talk to deal with this pain and trauma of losing their parents. i loved one on counting the costs,

a lot of phone workers as funds as rails agricultural sector into prices as a war on gaza escalates. gold is glittering. so what about oil? plus ready to resign? to save the planet. we explore the growing trend of climate courses, counting the cost on out a 0 and interview on my what do you, what that will be at that spend a minute more minutes. what else do you need is that, did i solve that? and it's about 80 pounds. that's fine. so let me just then let me, uh, would you like another i'm going to book a say i don't think this, but the file must have had to fill out like a me, it's a really does have that i'm

a photo, not glue of them. and it been, is that a legit it the men a minute it will go. freleigh hazy are the is there any strike on the 2 houses in russia and southern gauze and kills at least 27 pallets? things, number of people remain trucks fan onto the roof. the hello again, i missed ozzy, attain this is alta 0 at life from to ha. also coming. is there any forces are accused of storming and united nations run school in northern goals on execution, civilians sheltering the heavy rains was.
