7:03 pm
good evening to you both tanya want to start with you in jerusalem we just heard prime minister benjamin netanyahu is speaking in washington d.c. confirming israel's retaliation is underway what more can you tell us. yes that's right there reported airstrikes all over gaza at the moment that's what has been expected all day after this rocket strike this morning on the center now residence is very residence south nearby the gaza strip have been advised to be close to soldiers in the south and also in the center of the country such as have been opened because now the question is how will gaza militant groups how will they react to the asked the command center that is a center that is representing all the militant groups has already threatened early
7:04 pm
this afternoon that they are going to retaliate. with begin to strike gaza of course in gaza residents are bracing for a very difficult night and no shelters for civilians in the gaza strip and it's a hard it's a densely populated area so it's very difficult for them because all these airstrikes are bracing for a long and difficult night in gaza let's go now to washington to our bird chief there all xander alexander tell us what the president trumps reaction was to appear as a prime minister benjamin netanyahu saying that airstrikes have begun. presidents trump express condolences to an attorney for the gaza rocket attack and affirmed israel's right right to defend itself from such attacks and he also once again here in the white house stressed how important this relationship is between the two
7:05 pm
country he even said our relationship if colorful and he also reminded everyone watching or attending this event that it was him who decided as you as president to recognize joselo as israel's capital and to move you ass embassy to jerusalem. and he so the whole event here was creating a man's as a sign ofa port for israel and for. on so strong a supporter for israel from president a trying time yeah. i mean rocket launches from gaza are not that unusual what makes this particular rocket fired from gaza towards tel aviv difference. why was the second time in just two weeks at a longer range missile was fired well into the center for israel x. the this rocket exploded over religion over a house which was destroyed
7:06 pm
a small village in the north of tel aviv and people were also injured so this is rather unusual that it goes so deep inside the country and that is also why there's so much pressure now on the prime minister and it's now to respond to this forcefully some politicians you have said that you know it is right needs to restore its deterrence and have called for a lot military operation of course we have to wait and see how this military operation will not develop in the coming hours but none of the militant groups in gaza have claimed responsibility for this attack. i mean simultaneously as all of this is unfolding in real time a president all trump has formally recognized the occupied golan heights as israeli territory is this another show a strong show of support for israel or does it mean a lot more. i think it's another show for those of support
7:07 pm
for israel definitely but we have also to add to that by signing this proclamation and by recognizing israel sobranie over the golan heights the president you have president broke with a decade long you have policy in the region and by doing so the u.s. is undermining standing international laws among them to you and security resolutions and by doing so actually the administration is and door seeing forcibly taking land from other countries so that could set a precedent for trump however it is important a very important decision it is playing to his base. to his supporters and it's also important for the trump administration because it helps them to counter iran's activities in the region in syria. years of bureau chief in the washington

7:10 pm
that vote within this week and hoping to bring it before parliament she also said that members of parliament needed to confront reality but what that reality looks like is a bit unclear and meanwhile polman has decided on a different way forward they are going to vote on a series of amendments tonight and one amendment would basically put control of the bracks this process towards parliament so they could take control and find a good way forward so there seems to be a power struggle under way behind is through some a fighting for her political life and can she survive this. yes she certainly is over the weekend there was a lot of criticism to what so from her own tory party from the conservatives also of course from the opposition and from the northern irish d u p basically she upset
7:11 pm
members of parliament last week when she blamed the madness of the bricks of process on the members of parliament and right now the sensible thing to ask within the tory party is is it sensible to have a leadership contest and it seems like today that the members of parliament and members of her own party came to the conclusion that this is not a sensible way that this process should still lying in her hands to be continued charlotte potts reporting from london thank you. as we have to speak now as some of the other stories making news around the world is spain a former gym teacher at a catholic school has gone on trial accused of sexually assaulting students will public prosecutors are seeking a twenty two year jail sentence for collecting many says who taught at a school bus alone up on it comes at a time of sustained criticism of the vatican's response to
