baton rouge. tens of thousands of people around minsk former lives of solidarity in protest of police brutality this is the 5th day of demonstrations from president bush echoes disputed election victory. welcome to the program israel on the united arab emirates have announced that they have agreed to a historic peace deal under its terms the u.a.e. will recognize israel and establish diplomatic relations and return israel will drop its controversial plan to annex parts of the palestinian west bank the u.a.e. says the deal is a win for diplomacy in the middle east the agreement was brokered by the united states just a few moments ago a special call to friends prime minister benjamin netanyahu of israel and crown

prince mohammed bin. of the united arab emirates where they. agreed to finalize a historical peace agreement. everybody said this would be impossible. and as you know mohamed is one of the great leaders of the middle east after 49 years israel and the united arab emirates will fully normalize their diplomatic relations they will exchange embassies and ambassadors and begin cooperation across the board and order a broad range of areas including tourism education health care trade and security. straight to washington that's where we joined v.w. so bureau chief eunice pole welcome to this what will you tell us about this deal. right this was really a surprising statement of mr trump saying that israel and the usa will sign

a string actually of bilateral agreements on investment tourism security technology and a g. in other areas and that they also would set up embassies in each other's nation. we don't know much more the only thing we know that this is happening just a little bit more than 80 days before the election and that donald trump would love to name the steel after himself so as you say the significant foreign policy success for the presidents with i mean actually inside. absolutely this would be indeed a big foreign policy success and honestly the 1st one for this president in his tenure because the deal with north and south korea didn't come true and the middle east has been important for him all the way through some might remember that during the 2016 come pain he was promising to finalize

a peace deal once he's in office but i think we also have to keep in mind that people here in the united states are not so much interested in international policies right now not as much as they would have been before the pandemic is poll in washington thank you. correspondent tanya cromwell welcome time to be prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been speaking to the press about this what's he been say. yeah it was quite interesting i mean he called it again mark. historic day where he said it earlier in the evening but then he also emphasized actually u.s. president only asked for a temporary suspension of israel's controversial annexation plans to annex parts of the occupied west bank he emphasized also that he would never give up his rights

right on sovereignty and that there was nothing given in exchange for peace i think he's catering to his critics you know some there were already some voices within the right wing in the settler groups saying he's selling out israel so but that leaves also a lot of question marks of course because by some of the statements from the united arab emirates there was an emphasis on actually exactly that the suspension off. next ation. and one of the palestinian reaction. well i think it's it's rather a devastating day for the palestinians and we heard. the palestinian politician she said this is she sees it as a reward for israel illegal policies and for its occupation since the beginning we also heard from islamist group hamas. saying this is

a step in the back of the palestinian people i think for palestinians it's very difficult to comprehend that an irish country you know would go for a peace deal if it comes to that point without actually addressing the core issues conflict thank you for that kraemer in jerusalem. now take a quick look at some of the other stories making news around the world lebanon's parliament has approved a 2 week state of emergency for beirut in its 1st meeting after the catastrophic explosion was the force that grants the military broad powers such as prohibiting gatherings and declaring curfews protesters and rights groups fear it could lead to a crackdown on civil liberties. the u.s. military has released footage claiming to show the radian navy commandos seizing an oil tanker near the strait of hormuz u.s.

thousands have been arrested in the past few days of protests on wednesday hundreds of women stood arm in arm on the streets of minsk protesting their government's crackdown on free speech following sunday's disputed election. yeah i came here to support our better receiving people are women children are being killed and beaten up violated taken away we don't even know where they're taken there must be some justice. and i believe. it was videos like this one appearing to show jailed protesters being beaten and detention centers that angered so many under pressure president lukashenko has pinned the unrest on a disgruntled unemployed rump. those who would mean everyone who is unemployed currently has to be looked after

they have to be offered a job the core of the so-called protesters are people with a criminal past and those who are unemployed. going to. see would be as it will. these factory workers suggested otherwise. stand if you voted for tikkun of scalia the opposition leader a man shouts the room rose as one. elsewhere signs a trust in the system is running out on lookers how this man escaped the clutches of police. that just 5 siders are paying attention to the u.s. says warren sanctions are on the table what the people delivers to have the freedoms that they're demanding that they think are in their best interests. we

watch the protests we we urge that these that the non violent protesters be protected and armed. back on the streets the protests were more subdued on wednesday night go away they chanted no sign yet that this uprising has run its course. straight to minsk then where we join john this to honolulu baco welcome to t.w. let's start with the president's claim that the protesters on the streets of criminals and unemployed you've been at today's the protests to what did you see. well these are people from all walks of life basically this is you these are the elderly women. man and this is a medical workers they cite a professional they say they're professionals this is middle class so basically every social group is currently protesting and every social group is outraged by

the brutal response from from the police and well it's very hard to find anyone who would not protest actually there are signs that parts of the alice i mean now. that state television are. using to work anymore so they they leave their channels this pro-government stations also really have immense. and large numbers of. clients across the country that stop working when they announce that they would go on strike as well so this is a popular uprising runs and the pictures that we've been seeing of these these people are wiping flowers and lining up it all looks very peaceful so how has the violence subsided. or human from this side of the police or yes. well i mean my hands well yesterday of the was kind of

a more quiet day i'd say but at the same time police where brutally this person people in some means neighborhood but also outside me so i wouldn't say that they just you know they stop the environment not at all it's just the amount of information that appears and of and when the internet came back out great people so much that they kind of something so also there's a lot of people prominent public figures who demanded violence to be stopped and also it's very hard to apply violence against women you know hundreds and thousands of women who are protesting across the country and there are sometimes no shields and lonesome go up to the streets and i guess that's why there is less violence in the moment but nevertheless there are numerous reports across the country that right police specially in the forces patrol just the people on the street random citizens on a personal note how difficult is it to be

a journalist in belarus in this climate. oh it is very hard the problem is that nothing can protect you as a journalist atheist they like if you are separated from the crowd and if you wear some i don't think i didn't cation signs you will not be treated as a journalist you will be even targeted intentionally because they see you alone placement and police and specially the forces can fire and thereby actually cases when they fired rubber bullets at a drone lest i well i don't feel safe at all i'm sure that i've been surveilled but also when ever i drive even driving a car it's not safe anymore whenever we drive a car the restaurant grenades and it's just not you just know what's going to happen to you in your car and i think we're all scared here for life
