make room for jewish settlers. are particularly high. jerusalem day the anniversary of when israeli troops captured. 67. amid growing international calls for calm the u.n. security council is holding an emergency session to discuss the situation. there not confrontation. escalation. it's an entrenched pattern of behavior between jewish israelis and arabs palestinians who make claims to the same land. this time the hatred flared at the damascus gate at the entrance to the old city. ownership of land is at the heart of that bitter dispute. the prospect of forced

evictions of palestinians from east jerusalem has brought arabs to the streets over the past 2 weeks hundreds of them have been injured as israeli police crackdown on the demonstrations. on sunday they were out again ahead to have a controversial jerusalem day march through the old city. hard line israeli nationalists use the annual event to celebrate the capture of east jerusalem by israeli forces in 1967 war israeli security officials warn it could lead to a further escalation in violence. and we're joined by our correspondent in jerusalem. tanya that contentious march is expected to take place by israelis today in jerusalem how much potential is there for the violence to escalate. well i said it's it's a very difficult day. israeli celebrate jerusalem day which marks the capture of

east jerusalem $967.00 and the reunification. of jerusalem but that is of course from an israeli point of view palestinians want to see their future capital and they see this as a provocation it's a very difficult day usually the route goes from through east jerusalem to through palestinian neighborhoods through one of the main gates damascus gate and then through the muslim quarter now we heard we understand that israeli security officials even have warned that under the current circumstances that the route at least or the route should be. changed but we haven't heard anything to that regard what has been decided is to close the temple mount of the. mosque to israeli marchers these are usually international religious very rightwing

a people marching through the old city but we are seeing also this morning very heavy confrontations between palestinian youth. saying that police is using stun grenades and tear gas and palestinian youths throwing rocks and according to the vet question there are dozens of injured already it's a developing situation and we will be surely looking at that giving you more on that during the day we've been seeing these clashes in jerusalem for several days now what is fueling the. well there are several reasons. that as you know it's has been tense in the city for at least the past 3 weeks starting in 0 with police israeli police putting barriers in one of the central passes in front of damascus gate we had also march of ultra far right extremist jewish extremists on is true 2 weeks ago but there's also

another issue that is feuding those tensions the potential. for palestinian families from one of the palestinian neighborhoods in in the next east jerusalem we have been talking to one of the daughters of one of the families they are facing eviction in favor of a jewish settlers let's have a look cool it's documenting everything that happens here for social media her family is one of 4 families facing eviction from their homes in the palestinian neighborhood of shakeshaft in east jerusalem writing settlers could soon move in here but had look this is our life as palestinians we are the owners of the land we lived here legally and everything is documented legally. and they come here and occupied the place and they want to occupy what remains of the neighborhood i.

hate this part of the house has already been taken over by to resettle as a decade ago just like across the street where settlers moved into this house they claim parts of this neighborhood is actually their land and have waged a lengthy court battle against the family's. almost 100 year. jews lived. and jews own the land. change one thing. the arab suddenly decided. over the property and decided not to accept the jewish ownership like other palestinian families who live in this neighborhood they have every settled here by jordan and the you and after the israeli arab war in 1948 they've lost everything after being displaced at that time israeli law prevents them from claiming their last

properties. and that's the supreme court allows a european if there are no other options for the family. in the morning which would then look it's very painful a very tiring psychologically speaking really exhausted each one of us has packed evac with the most important papers the passport identity cards anything important makes it difficult from school and university in case they victimise and that's what we need to take with us and it should not. sunset residents and supporters come together to break their ramadan fast soon after skirmishes break out at some point riot police harshly dispersed the crowd arresting some of the palestinian protesters the eviction battle over the homes is like a symbol of force at stake in the israeli palestinian conflict.

tanya families like the one in europe have been awaiting a court decision on whether or not they're going to be evicted that decision i understand has been postponed why. well exactly that's what happened the supreme court at the high court of justice in israel has postponed the hearing that was scheduled actually for today from last week. and they could have made a potential decision on this pending big ssion in favor of this settler organization who claims the land also the attorney general of israel has submitted to postpone the hearing to weigh in on the case now this gives the family is a brief despite so to speak they can stay in their homes for now but it doesn't actually cancel to sit the decision by a lower court that already authorized. after

a lengthy court battle by this do set logon ization spac in february so basically it doesn't also change the root cause as we heard it in the report about this very controversial legislation and there are also other families in the middle of court proceedings. that are facing pending eviction that i understand of have action in the coming months tony thank you very much that was our jerusalem correspondent tom you crazy. check out some of the other stories making headlines around the world today the doctor who 1st treated aleck's in a bunny after he was poisoned with a nerve agent last summer has disappeared russian police say morakot yet to return from a hunting trip in a siberian region. 2 other doctors who treated the kremlin critic after his poisoning have died already this year. be on mars to pose leader aung sun suu

correspondent reports. this is eastern bowls most visited tourist attraction but hardly anyone is here these days. there is a very relaxed atmosphere instead of the usual crowds of thousands it's not only like these said the harvey and cynthia but everywhere in the city the few tourists who are here right now pretty much have to themselves. it's. there's a 1000 to. 3 sides there's a good time to be sure. we don't have many trouble in the 1st 2 just from the crane at the moment and istanbul and turkey is one of the many countries that are open for us that's why we decided to come here after like a year. to lock down is a great time to visit istanbul the city is much calmer now under normal

circumstances it's very crowded but that is theft. but while those on the cation are happy many locals are annoyed they have to adhere to a strict curfew until mid may. they can only leave their homes for grocery shopping and other essential needs and going to work requires a special permit. it's unfair my kids are asking why are the tourists allowed to be outside while we are stuck at home. he said. the tourists know that we are a high risk country i'm fine with them coming because they know the coronavirus situation here. we are threatened with have to fines if we leave our homes but the tourists can walk around freely that's not fair but there is nothing we can do about it. turkey has one of the highest coronavirus infection rates in europe

and that's why many people here support a strict lockdown they just don't understand why tourists are exempt but the government is trying everything to keep turkey attractive as a holiday destination because the economy urgently needs a successful summer season. bringing down the number of infections without driving foreign visitors the way many of those who earn their living from tourism think that's a good strategy. like the souvenir. is sophia who have barely earned anything for months. so the thought of pandemic has ruined the tourism industry here but as long as there are still some visitors there is hope at the moment there are just a few but we are happy about every single one is stand bull can accommodate many guests but 90 percent of the city's capacity is not being used right now. none of the sellers here expect the holiday season like before the pandemic. but many are

hoping that a bit more life returns to the hugin sophia once the lockdown is over. european union has not free nude its order for us to resent it is coded 19 vaccine that's according to the blocks internal market commissioner their current contract runs out next month this comes after the e.u. announced a new deal to buy more biotech pfizer vaccines lies the e.u. commission launched legal action against astra zeneca last month accusing the company of failing to respect the conditions of their current contract public trust has been damaged by reports of rare but serious side effects in the job speaking at the european parliament strasbourg french president among well mccall said he welcomed the move. you know what i would use this vaccine in france in europe and we must continue to do so because it will help us get out of the crisis but for the future or it is to respond to variance in particular we see that other vaccines are

more effective so this signals a european pragmatism which i welcome. correspondent joins us now from brussels belgium what reason has the e.u. given for not renewing its order for the vaccine. basically it is a lack of trust into the management of us as a. t.v. but it told the french commissioner who is responsible for the vaccination campaign said there is no rely the plan tabled passed the senate to how to deliver the doses the u.n. has already ordered for this year you have to keep in mind that only one 3rd of the dozers that. actually delivered to the customer is so that's why the use of looking for a target is but it is a business decision it's not about the medical. conditions still believed to be an effective vaccine the european medication agency says

says any cut is reliable and safe so it's about business and trust in business ok you say it's a business decision there's also the medical aspect and of course then there's politics health politicized is this whole debate surrounding astra zeneca. well that's as a go of cause problems in the beginning of the compay in the you has taken the company to call it and if you aren't caught with somebody it doesn't look good if you buy more stuff from the same suppliers as this might also affect the end to the decision and target if so for the e.u. us there's any is only delivering a small potion of the doses needed in europe 400000 out of 2400000000 that have been ordered for this year and now the e.u. commission has renewed its contact or extended its contract was by on take 5 they

would buy up to 1.8 additional one point $8000000000.00 additional it goes up through to 2023 and biotech pfizer is by far the biggest supplier for europe already so the e.u. is throwing its weight now behind by and tech pfizer by and check how quickly can that company that egg that production attempt get ramped up quickly enough to provide those $1800000000.00 it's. well themes from the commission is doing a pretty good job they are delivering faster than originally to the scheduled then new production side. established in germany 2 of them now their production sides in belgium so the production is actually taking place in europe more or less under the control of the commission and this is

a plus for buying new cars of cause but you also have to see that as as any guy is not out of the business assess any broad wide scene the biggest supply of vaccines against kobe $2000000000.00 is alone this year so this does apply for europe but not for the rest of the world a systemic of build play a very important role in this campaign and thank you very much for bringing us up date there that was our correspondent brussels bound. in other news canadian authorities say a man was shot and killed outside vancouver's international airport on sunday and what they say was a gang related killing the suspects are reportedly still at large after they fired at police from their getaway vehicle authorities say the airport is operating as normal again. hundreds of people marched in mexico city over the weekend calling for the legalization of marijuana demonstrators want the right to possess and grow
