7:00 pm
to your class, she's missing that the one thing we go, she that it's a classic. she want to insist on the system that it's almost impossible to. yvette, you know, whoever goes to the north and so on. he's saying basically, you know, it's like an possible situation to arrive at the site. i know you said that it was legit but it seems that mr. nothing else insists on these restrictions, right? i know you all have a, have a, have a job to, to focus on these things. but i, i try not to spend a lot of time worrying about um, names, sources and documents that may or may not have ever asked me. what we're focused on is playing a constructive role in the talks that begin today and beyond that, i'm just not going to get into the specifics of an ongoing process. couple of questions on the, you know, on the west bank, you know, it's, there's been a settlement and i, your, that's cosigned in small wonder if you're aware of the report. and if you have any
7:01 pm
comment on that, i've seen those reports aside. and again, this is ministration has spoken out against it is really actions that undermine territory or continuity for future problems to the instate. something like this would certainly be that every single one of these new settlements with mt post indian economic development and freedom of movement and undermine the feasibility of a 2 state solution. simultaneously side what we have said a number of times continues to be the case, which is that the user of the government's settlement program. we find that to be inconsistent with international law. and we certainly oppose the advancement of settlements in the west bank. and this uh would certainly be an example of that. if you go to me one more time, you know, just to follow up on what jennifer. yeah. about crossing the $40000.00 at mark. i mean, this is more than 10 to one as 5 that i mean, oh, last life is precious. and so,
7:02 pm
so now we have at least sent one pals student that had that went well enough enough because i know you would say, you know, one more we don't want to see him. but if that's the matter is that you've been saying this since last december, you know, and we have showing every single day, every single day, no 24 hour goes by without feeling at least 364050 dolphin, and most of them children. so mean when, well enough being up side of what we're exactly focusing on is trying to have a resolution that would allow the fighting to stop. that's why we have time and time again. and again, just a moment ago, i said that the best thing for the parties to do to minimize impact on all including the palestinian civilians is to accept and finalize as the sorry, the one that isn't encompassing of the hostages being returned. an influx of humanitarian aid and i brought her to pharmacy that happened for the region to get out of this endless cycle of violence. you know, go ahead. yeah. the supplement then? yeah. minutes to smoke to it's my guess. okay. you've been listening to the deputy
7:03 pm
spokes person for the us state department, the down patel. he was taking questions on the talks that have resumed here in doha, and trying to reach a ceasefire deal between israel and i'm a social 0 as john henry and joins us now from the us state department. john, you know, we're all listening keenly to this. you were, i was of yours were because we're trying to tease out any little more so of information that we can on these talks that are happening and guitar mediated in part by the us. did you find out anything in those comments that we heard as well, what we're learning is really that nobody expects anything to happen today. these topics are expected to go on through at least friday they could last days. and we know that both sides of basically agreed to the outline and present environment has proposed here. that is a 3 phase agreement. in phase one, there's a cease fire and
7:04 pm
a withdrawal of israeli forces and an undetermined number of women, elderly and sick captives would be released in phase 2. that would be the release of all captives and a permanent end hostilities in phase 3 is reconstruction. but exactly how you get there is what they're arguing about. and there are a number of sticking points. one of them is israel wants to control that border between gaza and egypt at present and find this plan calls for civilians, but not fighters to be allowed back into gaza at how exactly you do that. that's another sticking point. and another one is how many people are freed, how many of those captives are freed in phase one. and those are just a few of the issues the 2 sides agree on. and remember that how much isn't even at these talks, at how much leaders they've said they don't want to be part of talks that are really just designed to allow israel to continue finding. that is their point of view. so guitar and egypt will relate the substance of those talks to him, us,
7:05 pm
but they're not really a negotiation going on right now. so what's happening is it's kind of a one sided conversation. perhaps at the end of this, the 2 sides may agree, but they're pretty far apart at the moment. all right, john, thank you very much for that summation of what the deputies books person was saying . and we will, of course, continue to follow that from all angles whether it's out of washington, dc right here in doha or elsewhere. thank you very much. don't of israel's relentless war has now killed more than 40000 palestinians across the strip. guns is health industry says more than $16456.00 of those debts were children. the total number of victims is expected to be far higher than that. as more than 10000 people are still missing, the un says israel's bombardment has damaged or destroyed 2 thirds of buildings across the strip. saying the strongly begins are coverage.
7:06 pm
tens of thousands of lives violently taken. tens of thousands of voices, forever, signers. for the dead, the suffering is over for the living, the agony of survival for the $40000.00 men, women, children, and babies. 40000 sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, 40000 people, often left in pieces for friends and family to mourn, sometimes buried by strangers. because whole families had been wiped out, attack helicopters and airstrikes, drones tanks and artillery, pelting one of the most densely populated civilian areas in the world. 40000
7:07 pm
victims of the kind of indiscriminate bond that might seem un, imaginable in the 21st century. victims who israel's government has coldly characterized as 40000 human shields. for may, 40000 people is tens of thousands of parents whose lives will never be the same because they've lost the children. it's thousands and thousands of children who are forever last, that parents and its own going, well, i think that's what people struggled to understand that all those people who have not been killed, all those people who are trying to get through without a parent and the trauma having lost a child, a charlie living in tents still going through bombardment. the impact of bombs and bullets is often immediate. but many die after being crushed under collapsed buildings or from preventable infections, disease and starvation. because is real is blocking medical supplies and food from
7:08 pm
entering costs. it can meet us, lower death, seemingly more crude. the yellow below kind of hasn't come down if this happened in a european country, there wouldn't be any reaction come to a nation and a stronger response. we're a stage where a precedent garza has the value just the number of exciting this and say, hey, can you imagine what 40000 means? it is a catastrophic number. the world cannot imagine that island despite this, the world sees is where here is and watches every day, every minute back, but remain silent. and we are powerless. we are exhausted, we have no energy left. because the young enough, even if this is revenge against palestinians, they have taken enough revenge enough intervention is needed. what is happening proves that the world is completed with israel and the entire world is intent on the destruction of the palestinian people. even as the war and do today,
7:09 pm
pass conflicts show indirect long term effects continue for years. and it is a near certainty that the death toll in garza will continue to work. in a letter published in the medical journal, lance, it experts predict the final count will not be measured in the 10s of thousands, but in the hundreds of thousands. and while massacres can be measured, the scale of desk put into numbers, the level of suffering and trauma. now and going forward is incalculable. same bus robbie ultra 0, francesco that easy joins us now. she is the you in special rough worked her on the occupied palestinian territories. joining us from catania and italy, 40000 palestinians and gaza have been killed. thousands more have been missing more than 90000 have been injured. you of course, have a unique perspective on this because it has been your job even before the start of
7:10 pm
this war. to look with a focus on international law to look at the rights of palestinians in the occupied territories and in gaza and the occupied westbank. those rights are violated every day. absolutely. um the number we hear is shocking, but it was not shocking. be 689 months ago already. it keeps on growing. and it's, there are 2 things that i find really a mind blowing. on the one hand, there is the predictability. the was the predictability of warehouse i already knew by policy and terry trick, because israel had already completed on speak about crimes or crimes and presumably, crimes against humanity before october 7th. and think of the construction to vanessa, extract a sector this n d. so,
7:11 pm
and this is what's the space i talked about as being is, or the connect on a minute. and finally spent over 16 year old siege on gossip about what has happened also to birth separate ease, ease. i'm is unbelievable. there is an obligation to present genocide and we have to be now there to talk to those ability. all b. c trader and i concluded that there is drug aside and still international community doesn't intervene it. so they reset toner, roshan the various nation international. i wanted to ask you about that because all the livers of international law and our rules based system method is sometimes described has been activated, right? the international court of justice. whereas really is currently on trial for genocide and the international criminal court where the chief prosecutor has requested arrest warrants against hamas leaders and against these really prime
7:12 pm
minister. and of course, the, the 1st form i think, where as a national law is exercised, which is the united nations. all of those have been activated yet. the war continues in pretty much the same way today as it was, you know, 8 months ago, 10 months ago. what does that tell us as well? it tell us as the one hand that the system is in crisis itself. so that the situated rhetoric situation, you not even a sign, i don't think that there are words left at the disposal to fully to the tragedy. the test between the diplomacy and people in 20 central. so these res, because the obvious, the more obvious in which they have failed is, uh is, is a hard hard to comprehend. um, but again, it did the way we had on there. and the fact that we are there speaks to ethical
7:13 pm
failure all the system itself, which is which was barrister after the 2nd world war to prevent an palm beach atrocities like these, especially to provide so he does feel, but also he tells us that the reason you try call christie the system, because if you color full state has the capacity to determine mean to international can be applied and to whom we cannot. and the stroke is in the laughter car a category. this is unacceptable. you know, you know, the system that has premised upon the universality of their own. so that has given itself, can you share with us a little bit of what that's been like for you on the, on the inside of that system because you've been warning about violations of international law. you have written reports, some of which have been made public and that we've, you know, read and analyze here. you have signed a letter of experts warning, the genocide may be happening in gaza. so you've,
7:14 pm
you've been involved in this trying to sound the alarm for months now to uh, yeah, i just commented yesterday night, holding this monday, it feels like, uh, being a cassandra in the sense, trying to speak truth and bring to the 4 facts that must be acted upon and this has not happened in before me, either 3 special local source or for 20 years. we have together, we have seen cities rating human rights organization, sounded the alarm seeing vitamin street violence situation is exploding and the resort to on the one hand policy, it's kind of pull the tiny more and then the other end there is also something that some of the been called the poor and effective when i say sion meaning a rising of extremism in these raised society. and this phone has not been heated and isn't cool as of january. um, sorry. as of october 2022. uh, we together without our special doors, highest denounced that do we offer
7:15 pm
a genocide to do with the risk of genocide and then concluded that genocide is to be for me to more importantly the i c g has recognized histories and what the i see jacob codes on life, what i am doing is binding and still it's not school blind, the width by each other and other members of my frontier account there. sorry. go ahead. sorry. no. the seriousness of these for the international system is, is incredible. and it seems that a member states are fine with age, but these are the rules that kind of protected for life. b, d. all these there was just brutal violence. francesca, albany z u. n. special rep forced her on the occupied palestinian territories. thank you very much. for joining us on elsie's 0 this our thanks and the white house has confirmed the guns a ceasefire. thoughts have especially resumed into ha and are likely to run until
7:16 pm
friday. the 1st phase of the deal would be a temporary truce, during which time us would release women, the elderly and wounded captives in exchange for palestinians held in his really presence. the 2nd phase would include a permanent and to hostilities, and the release of all remaining is really captive. the 3rd phase would be the reconstruction of casa, the houses are, was mom. injunction is following the talks. in doha mohammed, there is so much we do not know about what's happening behind these close doors, right? even who's talking to whom can you, can we start with the process and can you tell us what we know or what we think we know about how these talks are happy? you know, it's interesting serial because really the only player right now that is the talking is the us you. we've heard remarks from john kirby, the us national security spokes person who is said that the talks began. he said that how boss is not involved at the moment,
7:17 pm
but that caught thought and egypt will be relating messages to how mouse. and he essentially said that, that's kind of the way that it's worked in the past. and we must remember that when these talks have taken place in the past as many rounds as there have been, these are not direct negotiations between israel and how much you have israel speaking to the mediators who have how about speaking to the mediator. so in that sense, potentially you could say that it resembles past incarnations of these talks, but this comes at a time of great regional tension, so much volatility at a time when the mediators of the us got the and egypt one to ensure that there is no regional conflagration that there is no broad regional award that happens as a result of a ceasefire, not being effected here in cost. but now it seems as though the us is heading its bets right now. essentially saying that they don't expect there to be a deal today. with not yet heard from the categories we've not heard from the egyptians, and at this stage we don't know how much,
7:18 pm
how much is going to be involved in the talks. the companies have told their us counterparts that how much will be involved in some form or fashion. but what we've heard up until now from how much that they don't want to be involved in any kind of new negotiation. what they want to see if they want to see a response from israel relate by mediators as to the framework agreement that was presented by us presidential biden in late may. and that was agreed to by how much in early july, that's what they want to see. so there's so many questions. all of this, of course, as you said, is happening behind closed doors of all day. we have been trying to get some indications from those on the ground here and go high as to what's happening and really no details have been forthcoming. and it really kind of kind of goes to show how much the stakes are so high right now. but at the same time, expectation seemed to be really low as to what exactly might happen in either the hours where the days to come. your ice. thanks. low expectations mohammed thank you
7:19 pm
very much for walking us through all of that. that's mohammed junction reporting and don't. thank you. have the is really army has intensified res, across the occupied west bank are resting more palestinians over the last week is really forces carried out multiple incursions in the cities that for a mother calculated into a car in a separate operation. they rated the city of jeanine and its refugee camp in the north. at least 10000 palestinians have been detained since the start of the war on gaza, according to policy and prisoner groups. still ahead on elsie's 0 tensions on the streets of duncan, bangladesh, and student protestors confront supporters of the overthrown government. the the
