the, the showcase of the best documentary films across the network on algae 0. the is there any forces still mileage? is there a 0 in ramallah in the occupied westbank on shut down operations by the hello on saw the height of this is all it. is there a lie from the whole? so coming up has by law fi is what kids. deep tough is around the groups as it's targeted. and basically the know who cecile hyphen is, comes off to israel, drugs,

southern 11 on and it's largest exchange is fine with paula since october, 7th, who sheltering displaced, palestinians is a time in gaza, at least 22 people are killed. most of them children, the only begin with breaking news from ramallah in the occupied west. buying cars is ready for seas of forces. the storms out 00 in ramallah early on sunday, and have shut down operations the software given 10 minutes to gather up their belongings. and leave immediately, the ministry has ordered the closure of the bureau for 45 days. hey, all the fast moments are about to see that off the is ready. soldiers presented onto 002 for the the all money with the orders. chelsea the bureau down as a i'd rather than i'd love with my idea of who this is with statement that was

brought to us by the israeli army. the statement includes in order to shut down our elders here office for 45 days while you know a woman was i thought i was getting you saw that this is a decision that was made by one of the is really generals. he is ordering us to immediately leave the office phone and take our personal belongings and cameras. and that was the other. i don't a subsidy. yeah, i mean who i was coming out. i said that, but i, i told him that as the client the, the army says we have only 10 minutes to take our belongings and leave the office so they can shut it down and then send out the body to the office will be closed for $45.00 days and that setup love you. yes. okay. and what uh, what is the reason most of the reason is in the statement, kind of look at it down or something to give us a copy of it. let me know and i can see i will keep a copy of the statement with you and for any concerns or issues. you can go and

speak to our ministry. come on bob at the army headquarters. i'm with the data that comes out of being a oh man, welcome. he says that the order is to shut down the office for $45.00 days and the rest of the details are at their headquarters. and the reason is that, let me see the reason for the design was there. whether you can keep this copy a lot of the high, some is live for us in by roads. but 1st let's bringing home to south coast is with us on the line from my mind in jordan, because he's ready to government his bond dollars. is there a from reporting within israel was just like, you know, on the line we can see are in the vision that comes up. so how we've been talking obviously about this laces, but this isn't the 1st one, is it? can you talk to us more about law? this is the 2nd band on i just need a just this year. back in may, these really government made the decision to shutter and just need has offices in israel that included our office and occupied east jerusalem. it came after

a decision by these really government, after it was passed into law in may, and these really convinced that under a new law they deemed the under the 0 law. and this was states that under emergency measures in a time of war, these really government can take any sort of measure. they please against a, for in network meaning to shut them down if they deem them a threat to their national security. there have been allegations against and just the the that are totally and completely false with no backing proof or basis to them whatsoever. so now many months, nearly 5 months after our office and all he parties jerusalem was rated by is really police. the equipment was confiscated, this has now happened due to our offices in the occupied west bank. the way the law goes is that it's a $45.00 day band, and it can be renewed for an additional $45.00 days with no limit to how many times

that extension can be put into place. but to be antagonists, nation, a bunch, a 0. the attacks on the network started when the war began, when israel was looking to put this measure into law from the very beginning from the very beginning of the war. and comes up. um, you know, looking at these and pictures incredible, really big says they've turned up in full a minute, treat a uniform. these are minute 3 soldiers that have been sense of fully weaponized. we're seeing our colleagues, the in the video i'm just watching now is view is all what seeing that came in and no longer goes probably around an hour ago that this happened. they just suddenly turned up and you know, were given just 10 minutes to take all of that personal belongings. no, it's the equipment, nothing that we use for our work to do our job to be able to have those live

capabilities that has all had to stay. it's also us updating our view is just for us you. the next question comes up. that's these right. soldiers are still in our office at the moment. they have surrounded the air. they've also been using to gas outside of the office. we also saw pictures of the city in a barclay, a very well 9 renowned journalist who covered extensively as a protestant in the occupation affected her lives. she spoke to people around the world that are living on the occupation, not just people in the region, but people around the world. she was also a us, you, national, killed by these writers, comes out socials. we were talking earlier. again, remind our view is please, what happened the, how have we have we come a long way from that, how things change or west and,

and also again, the pictures that you'll just seeing there on your screen is of a post of shooting of walker that has been taken down this the crates, if you like, by these really minute, 3 that has stormed office earlier. and this is, speaks volumes to the treatment of the many journalists all facing as they try to cover the war in gaza as well. just to give you some figures from the occupied westbank since october, the 7th, a 108 palestinian journalist have been arrested by is really forces 59 of them. still remain in cost city arrested by these really military when it comes to shitty and shooting. was the voice of palestine shooting was a journalist who was so well known throughout the error world for her coverage on palestine. and these really occupation and the brutal policies that are a consequence of that occupation shooting was brutally murdered by is really forces

back in 2022 while doing her job covering the military raid in geneva. wearing her press flak jacket wearing her helmet. but still she was shot in the head buying is really sniper. and to this day there has been no accountability for her killing. and it's not a surprise that is really forces have ripped down for post or from the office. because earlier this year, back in geneva, where there is a small memorial site where shooting was killed is really forces had destroyed that as well. this is a pattern from is really for us is this is a pattern of israel to show for us to show you that they are in charge even in occupied territory. that is under military rule, where the conditions for palestinians are so difficult. the conditions for palestinian journalists are of horror ends and not to mention the conditions for palestinian journalists in gaza,

who are putting their life on the line every single day to tell that story. and we've seen that in the occupied westbank as well, and then raised and occupied east jerusalem. these journalists putting everything they can out there risking their lives to tell the truth and is really forces have killed a number of palestinian journalists. is exactly uh, hundreds of hundreds of course will be coming back to you over and over again in the next coming hours as we try and unpack what's going on here. and so it's, and the of the israeli government has accused all just sarah and has done since the beginning of the will of a being a national security threat. this is, of course completely denied by alta 0. now let's go live to a highly high some who's live for us in bay woods. um ali, uh, you know, you, yourself, personally. well, we're covering, you were covering events in southern lebanon back in october. not last of the

october 7 attacks. not last of the government decided these really government decided they were going to be at will. and they were going to take this to gaza. a will that has continued now for almost a year. you are parts of a group of journalists covering it, signing a vantage point where you can see those strikes by as well into 11 on against. has bella, tell us what your experience was when you and the group that you are with of john, this photography it's, it was all in a few days. this incident to be will have an inverse city to be one year since it's happened on, is there a lot that day killed our colleague from bright to is i found a lot of the line in just said, but i look forward to these especially, i mean i can talk about catherine, joe, for the i work for the from i just get out of it can leave it actually all along with all those. it was of course, at the beginning of the war on the 13th of october. and it's all shocking,

given the fact that all our colleagues were reading that hadn't missed the flak jackets marked us journalists with as a satellite cause. but they went ahead, they were hit with the tanks with thank more to and of course our colleague i some unfortunately, what can, the fact is that there is an attempt and it's the it and it's not the only time from is ready to prevent journalists from doing their job from saying the story from telling the story from getting closer to the, to the areas where things are happening in the developments that are happening. where they are raising people doing get strikes, getting people or where the whole confrontation is taking place at it. was scared to death. busy of a fos that we are now in danger despite that danger and we

continue to cover now it was uh to us a dot moment at the beginning of the war. it was a moment of. busy and then, you know, we felt like we need to do as much as possible to tell the story. and i that day we went together and then we separated. each of us went in one box and then they were, they were hit, they went ahead and it was clear that they went ahead on purpose because the way the shelves had, as some of the light hits him directly in his body. i mean, it was, it was a moment that no, no joined the list with a witness and we forgot to sit trauma that will continue to be with us all our lives, especially for me and of course. and then in a bigger way for people who were direct key was when i saw my deaf moment. and that wasn't the only occasion when we saw for to an incident taking place in just

a few weeks later. journalist for my lady in the, for the home, i don't have my money with to directly late that also all the incidents took place on the west. the, you know, reminding of yours that even understands the national, the time has investigated. lots of tackle new and other colleagues back in october and said that is ro needs to be held accountable for. it cools a will crime. thanks very much. sorry. high some of the of from they roots in 11 on let's go to uh wayne ravone, who's a non resident fellow at the sense of full conflicts and humanitarian studies. he joins as live now from the how. what does this mean to you when you have the it's an international news organization which has been covering the gauze of war extensively. it's been covering the is ready, occupation for many, many years. this is

a story that many of our audience is all familiar with. a new story where we bring a lot of detail. what does this latest very word and development mean when the, when use when you have that. so the last remaining bureau that we have been able to operate from has now been shut down. yes for $45.00 days, but could end up being renewed. the bond rather. well, an incitement against the edges either and smearing its journalist has become something of a national past time in israel, and among its apologists and funky is abroad. and particularly among the extreme right. i think we need to put this in context. there's a very long history of this, i mean you go back, for example, to the late 19 eighties. when agile whitley of the financial times indian black of the guardian has their press credentials revoked. because they published articles about israel's use use of death squads against active us doing the 1st and to

follow the you know, there's all kinds of incidents over the years. and of course in the past year is real. has a new world record for the killing of journalist and when awards on particularly in the, in the gaza strip. and i, my main concern here is that israel is a ready killing record numbers of journalists and the gaza strip to ready closed on the gc. those offices in jerusalem, why is it now doing this in the west back and obviously wants to reduce coverage of what's happening, which is either has been reporting so closely. um is, is this in preparation for some major development that is realistic planning and in the west bank i think that should be the main concern. the other one is i think we have to recognize, you know, that when the united states and other western countries talk about press freedom

and so on. that's really for public consumption. they won't do anything. and i think they'll probably be on the whole, please. that is real, has done this because it will help reduce coverage of what they are so very complicit. and so i wouldn't expect anything other than boiler plate from them and, and as you've been reporting, you know, they, when these realize began vandalizing the youngsters either offices, they also took or out of the post or on the building of shooting. i will, i'll clear who is not, was not only very provident, as either a journalist, but is also an american citizen. and i think the message is real, was trying to send as we can do whatever we want. because washington has our back. we can even murder american citizens and they're never going to be any consequences . so how can you possibly think that any one is going to get hold onto the caller

over us, closing down the prominence international news organization. and, and, you know, you were just saying there about an american citizen, we know. sure. now vall clark was, it was the jewel national in that sense. but we also have um, the x of this that was killed and in a occupied was buying jewel took his american and citizenship just a couple of weeks ago. i again took, he has cool, took care of that has cooled, full accounts, abilities hold as well. accountable for that to be an independent investigation, and that's the key word here because israel has never said it wouldn't investigate . it does its own internal investigations. how appropriate bostic is that as well independent investigations are things you conduct against enemies and adversaries when it comes to allies and proxy regimes like is real. you don't conduct

a independent investigations as you've heard state department of lighthouse spokespersons. and it's been saying now for over a year, you know, it is israel's responsibility to investigate itself and we will accept the outcomes of those investigations and move on. and then the next time an american citizen is tortured or murdered. you know, we'll go through the same play, but i think there's also a broader issue here as, as you know, the international court of justice and the hague. a few months ago issued an advisory opinion, which, which deemed the israeli occupation and legal and unlawful and legit at the end. it is precisely because of things like this. you know, the order to close just eat as offices did not refer to the westbank. it referred to today and scenario of israel has renamed the territory. and this is why it's so urgent to confront these really occupation. and as the un general

assembly recently stated, and it's resolution to begin to take active measures to bring it to a rapid end. and this, of course, as you said, cool comes in like not just of a crack sound on international john list on media, certainly not just in terms of entry into the goals, but just generally covering the will, but also a crux down on the life of the united nations o and use have also been trying to deliver much needed aids and so it goes, i'm afraid minor bonnie, i'm going to have to leave that. but mine are bodies. thank you very much for joining us. a non resident fellow at the sense of the conflict and humanitarian studies really appreciate you in for the thank you. now as always, is there a 0 in ramallah was rated as riley, as toys continued to pounds at $711.00 on of the explosions were heard in towns

across the southern 11 on with israel saying it's a striking the region extensively. it's been described as some of the largest exchanges of course, board of funds since last october, when the lebanese group opened a front and to show a support for palestinians in gaza. now has the has 5 real kits. the for this time in to israel is phase grow of a great, the escalation between the 2 sides. the lebanese group says it was targeting that or i'm not. so is it a base thought south of haifa. most of the real kits were intercepted with some fragments. smoking fires as well as power outages. rocket sirens have been activated across numerous towns and of course villages in the northern border of his route with 11 on also, funerals have been held to those kills. and these radiates hot on a densely populated residential area of southern bay route on friday in fox, at least $38.00 people were killed in those strikes,

including cns as bella come on does. but also 7 women, as well as 3 children destroyed, also injured more than 60 people, then a whole then has this report. the unwritten rules of war appears to have collapsed, as well as we're strike in babies on friday has taken its war against has beloved to a new level, the search for bodies and the trouble of a 7 story building continued into the next day. this was a rate against senior hezbollah military commanders, but they were not the only victims meant by mental, left, 3 children, 6 years old, 4 years old, and 10 years old, have lost a logs, 7 women as well known state laws. and there are many more body parts this was not the 1st attack of its kind, and this suburb of bay boot were hundreds of thousands of people live. but the fear now is that the cat capital, southern district, or what's known as the were,

is rel, believes, as well as command and control center is based, has been brought into the equation. we came to assist the situation and found that the scale of destruction was it means a multi story building had collapsed in a nearby parking lot was targeted with the flows. caving in its belief has follows operations chief abraham r m, as well as the leaders of the groups lead force were meeting 2 floors underground. but this is a busy street and it was a residential building that was completely leveled out of them in unlimited people with living their lives coming back home. and there were those who were picking up their children from the nursery. this is a terrorist act. many of hezbollah supporters live here and there is concern, as well as aim, is to drive them out to the area. creating a displacement crisis is really recognizance thrown, have been in the skies over bagels and surrounding areas. since the talk on friday,

the feeling here is the chances of the escalation between long time enemies is is what. 5 appears to be on the offensive and pushing the limits. the major escalation began a few days ago when hezbollah accused israel of declaring war, when it designated explosives of thousands of pages and walkie talkies over 2 days, killing dozens of people in injuring thousands. both members of hezbollah and civilians, we see an escalated security people of the likes, which principle has never been subject to. so that again, that is a big challenge which has been lot, little faced when it comes to security. and intelligence is pretty that these ratings do ha, do have the on the hand. but we have to wait and see because of the law is known to unbearable surprises. further south, israel has been launching one of its most intense bombardments of what is calls hezbollah assets in the border region and 11 months of fighting as well appears to

want to leverage for some kind of agreement to enable residents to return to the north has the law does firing back and has rules out an end to this escalation until, as well as the war on casa center for their us as ita bailed. this is randy ministry is car that more attacks than gaza targeting. southern and central area is at least 22 palestinians were killed in an attack on a school and it was a tool near a goal is the city was filtering thousands of displaced people. dozens have been injured, 13 to the dead were children, and 6 were women. all just there is abraham and henry has moved from is a tune in gaza. i am here spend an inside, i'd say to school, located and as a to neighborhood. as you can see behind me, this is the offer math of a brutal air strikes for i get it. this is cool. and this is the belongings of the civilians here who have been already displaced from as

a to neighborhood. civilians are sticking, this is, this is full of shows our author the own going around encouraging of is they to neighborhood that has been taking place for more than one months. i'm not the last sort of we were shocked and stunned by to me. so i was hitting the school, we are not terrorists, and we are not part of the resistance. we have nothing but normal displaced people . these babies have left nothing for us. they have destroyed our houses, schools, hospitals, universities, and most only god can help us when we were in the playground. and the children blow around us suddenly too is where the massage had the school blood was all over the place. people accused of this toner, pock pieces of flesh, was catalogued over bulls and even on our faces, a woman was due to give birth and a few days was killed disapproval attack targeting this is the resulted in many killed civilians and does is injured in a scale of

instruction, this is not more than 17 school have been targeted. dividends forces are trying to make the list of the of civilians here in northern got to see if i am, how do you mean a 0 to northern gaza? that is fine. a form or by that as a merely so this is a long list of form, a deputies. all right, so of the arab american institute and he joins us live from washington, dc. alma, thank you so much for joining us. and obviously you've been hearing this latest development that has come out from occupied west point where a bureau offices have been shots for 45 days. you also just heard a report that from the goal is a how much of the timing is release is to see what's going on in gauze of this year since the october 7, a tag. how much of this is filing financing,

rather john list to show what's really happening on the ground in the gaza strip. and there is no question that what israel is doing in this attack on off the 0, by the way, an extended attack that we've seen attack by the tax on journalist and guys of the killing of shooting over outlet a couple of years ago. and now the shutting down of the offices and run my life is transparently vengeance. or how does he or his crime reporting the truth about what his role is doing and be occupied, palestinian territories of israel's carrying off and the atrocities. and nobody has got a better job of reporting on them that all the 0 has. and i think this is a transparent effort by israel to essentially punish alda 0 for that crime. and also to ensure that there's even less coverage. uh that reality unless it comes out to the rest of the world. and part of what worries me here is that there is an obvious regional escalation taking place. not just and gaza at 11 on, but in the west bank as well and shutting down. know the 0 may be part of lay the

groundwork for much of wider range of rates and atrocities with israel is about to carry out of the last bag that they're hoping to get less coverage of and less less visible sense of what that actually it looks like to the rest of the world. and that brings me to the next question. um, uh, almost a bunch of which is, uh, you know, is this assigned perhaps a moving forward that things are now going up and taking another level because of the al jazeera hasn't only just covered the latest of what's going on in the goal? is this trip in the is ready war on garza. we also have of course, been covering extensively the protests against the current government. so it's, and the post will, i'm pretty well and it was to do the just rule traditional role reforms. so we're covering also the families of those house cops as a cooling,

so that c 50. i'm blame prime minister benjamin netanyahu full not allowing us the slides. the old goes for his own political games. what will happen now? that's a big international news channel is being banned now, extensively from being able to cover this, not just it is real, but now the occupied territories. and what does that mean for the wells if we aren't able to show that side of things? yeah, i think israel is going berserk at this point. i mean, they're really putting on an incredibly racist and fascist display in the way that they have behaved towards the palestinians and its rational media for quite a while in a way that is really transparently escalating where you look at the personalities, but currently rule the extremist right wing government, the israel, this is really unsurprising. they've been talking in a way that is extremely past, just embrace us. and they've been quite clear also about the fact that they have no

tolerance of the truth of their actions actually coming out. and we're seeing israel essentially losing any attempt at even pretending. you know, there was a time when israel was invested in its p r. and this idea of putting forward the image of a liberal country of a country that cares about human rights. of course that was incomplete contrast to what israel's actions are, but their government at this point has reached the level of extreme is that they're not even pretending anymore. and they're kind of tracking down on media in a way that is really transparent and obvious. and this would be a moment in which the international media, you know, journalist across the entire world should be looking at what is actually unfolding and dealing with it in the way that you would do with any little authoritarian regime. imposing a part type rules of shutting down media and attacking media. the way these are the government is unfortunately, it seems that as long as these really government has the us packing for the way that they have behaving. and the fact of us seems to be allowing them to do whatever they want to with complete and total impunity that simply keep.
