deconstruct racism and bias. it is the institutional culture, it is the justice system, we have bias in every aspect of society. and so, you do not see officers doing this to white citizens because our court system has said that they value white life more than any other life. and so, we have to speak truth to power on these issues to say the reason why we keep seeing it happen to black and brown people is because it is the culture in this society that we can marginalise brown and black people and we can trample on the constitutional rights of black and brown people and that is why we have to continue to say no, it is not equal justice for have to continue to say no, it is not equaljustice for some, it is

reports say a total of six rockets were fired from the gaza strip overnight, most of them intercepted by israel's iron dome missile defense system. israel's military says it responded by bombing a site in gaza used by militants to manufacture rockets. we're not hearing reports that anyone was hurt, but we know that egypt and other mediators going behind the scenes from early on trying to stop the violence which have begun in the west bank from spreading into gaza. this really followed the morning raid by israeli forces inside thejenin urban refugee camp. nine palestinians were killed there, both civilians and militants. israel's military said it was acting on accurate intelligence that an islamichhad cell was planning major attacks against israeli civilians and militants. now, i was in the refugee camp not long after three hours singh that he responded by bombing the site we note that the mediators are going behind the scenes trying to stop the violence which had begun in the west bank from spreading into gaza and this will be followed the morning raid by israeli forces inside the
6:14 pm
urban rec refugee camp in nine palestinians were killed there and the military said it was act being on accurate intelligence that an islamic chi hartsell was planning major attacks against israeli civilians and militants and i was in the refugee camp not long after three hours of fierce battle had ended, gun battles between armed fighters there were then these mass funerals that took place. tensions rising very high. and what we saw then actually in other parts of the west bank driving through, at other regular flash points is that there were clashes between palestinian protesters and israeli forces. just outside ofjerusalem one palestinian man was killed. that brought the number of palestinians killed through the day up to ten, the number killed already this year,
6:15 pm
up to at least 30 people. we have had from the united nations, from the us secretary of state, messages coming out that they're very concerned about this "cycle of violence", as it's being called. the us secretary of state, antony blinken, is actually due to arrive here in a few days' time and he was already going to have a challenge trying to talk to israeli leaders and palestinian leaders. certainly any notion of the peace process going anywhere any time soon is really not something that people are talking about here. but now tensions look that much higher. we've had the palestinian authority in ramallah saying that they're actually cutting off their cooperation with israel on security matters in reaction to what happened injenin. stay with us on bbc world news. still to come:

we hear from we hearfrom a we hear from a former interim peruvian president who was at the ongoing political crisis. a shuttle challenger exploded soon after lift—off. there were seven astronauts on board, one of them a woman schoolteacher. all of them are believed to have been killed. by the evening, tahrir square, the heart of official cairo, was in the hands of the demonstrators. they were using the word "revolution". the earthquake singled out buildings and brought them down in seconds. tonight, the search for any survivors has an increasing desperation about it as the hours pass. the new government is finally in control of the entire - republic of uganda. survivors of the auschwitz concentration camp have been
6:17 pm
commemorating the 40th anniversary of their liberation. they toured the huts, gas chambers and crematoria and relived their horrifying experiences. this is bbc world news. the latest headlines: peru's president has asked congress to bring forward elections to december this year as political unrest continues. anti—government protesters supportive of the former president pedro castillo, who was jailed and impeached last month after trying to dissolve congress, have been demanding for an early vote and president boluarte's resignation. more than 50 people have been killed in clashes between protesters and security forces in recent weeks. a little earlier, i spoke to dr francisco sagastini, who served as president of peru from november 2020 tojuly 202i. he began by giving his reaction to president boluarte asking congress to bring forward
6:18 pm
the elections to this year. the decision has been made to the elections are going to be brought forward in the debate is whether they're going to be held in april 2a are brought forward to december or even october of this year. apparently, all of this is possible and the only difference is that the shorter period of time to elections it will be less time to agree on significant reforms to the electoral code which is what many people are making. we will see what details on that particular aspect but when you look at peru right now, and the level of instability in the pictures being broadcast all over world, can you believe it? peru unfortunately is an many episodes of violence and
6:19 pm
people should remember what happened during the 19805 with the terrorism but even under very difficult situations, we were able to overcome. and i'm hopeful and confident that sooner or later and i hope it is sooner, in order to avoid more casualties and vulnerable people, will reach a political solution that allows us to move forward. you have done it in the past and i know it is complicated and i know it is difficult and i know there is a great deal of polarisation but they have managed to really find their way back to stability even in more situations. you rejected calls for a full controversial overall through referendum since it's been carried out in chile but at the moment, we look at these pictures, do you think fundamental reform is needed? fundamental reform has been needed for quite some time in many people,
6:20 pm
including myself, the question is how do you go about doing that? you can have the reforms in a hurry without considering the second consequences of the defects and so on and what is needed is a period of calm tranquility and a kind of truth and to be able to go and i5 sensible and to be able to go and i5 sensible and delivered way that that requires. otherwise, bringing forward rush reforms, they would repeat the situation we've had over the last few years. i repeat the situation we've had over the last few years.— the last few years. i noted during our da s the last few years. i noted during your days in _ the last few years. i noted during your days in office, _ the last few years. i noted during your days in office, you _ the last few years. i noted during your days in office, you ran - the last few years. i noted during your days in office, you ran into l your days in office, you ran into resistance when trying to introduce various reforms like in the week at that point, how would you envision also after so many more deaths, bringing about a place for people are able to speak to one another and have a peaceful moment to try and think of what reforms might be
6:21 pm

6:22 pm
illegal mining, illegal logging and we have people who are protesting honestly about their grievances and we have politicians to take advantage of that. and unless you have a response to each of those courses, it's going to be difficult to reach agreement and unfortunately, the government up to now has not been able to articulate a response that really would address at the same time the immediate problems of plucking growth and so on and also to give confidence that theissues on and also to give confidence that the issues that will be taking in the issues that will be taking in the short term will allow us to deal with long—term grievances. it is a very difficult balancing act and can be done and i hope and trust that by bringing forward the elections and having new on tour routes, people and politics both in congress and this will realise that there's
6:23 pm
possibility that could be taken. up to now, i must confess that does not appear to be too likely because we probably will go through a period of initial unrest until people see that it is better to sit down and negotiate and discuss. i have questions on how this could be done. speaking to us about the protests in peru. bracing for the police video footage. in the past hour, tyre's mother says that while she has not seen the footage, she urges people to not let the children see the footage. let's turn to a correspondent who is there. what else stood out for you?
6:24 pm
