this is coming to you live from berlin a dramatic. violence between israel and palestinian israeli airstrikes after hamas militants fired rockets from gaza tensions after hours of clashes on monday at a jerusalem holy site also coming up a nation exhausted from its fight. calls are growing.

as local measures fail to break the surge. why is this russian. get the job. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us countries worldwide have appealed for calm following deadly retaliatory attacks between israel and palestinians israel has launched fresh air strikes on tuesday against targets in gaza as hamas fired dozens of rockets toward israel authorities in israel say 15 militants were killed in its prior overnight airstrikes while health officials say $24.00 palestinians died including children the escalation in violence follows days of

protests over plans to a big palestinian residents from a neighborhood in east jerusalem. israel launches a series of deadly retaliatory strikes on gas. hours after rockets were fired from the palestinian enclave. they retaliate torrie attacks which began on monday night marked a significant escalation in tensions in jerusalem they followed a day of heavy clashes between palestinians and israeli police inside the x. gun mosque. hundreds of people were injured when police fired stun grenades and tear gas at palestinian demonstrators later israeli nationalists gathered for a nanny will march through jerusalem's old city to celebrate israel's capture of east jerusalem during the 19676 day war many palestinians use a march as a provocation the catalyst for the violence is israel's plans to evict and number

of palestinian families from east jerusalem to make room for jewish settlers for many the evictions are just part of a wider trend it's a matter of record policy that's retargeted notes. that are going to. and of course are getting a salary and other places and they have sent around. enormous settlements to extricate jerusalem from its pristine and run. the international community is now calling for all sides to deescalate. let's bring in yarra she's political analyst of the palestinian think tank. and a freelance journalist dr who are you before we get into the underlying tensions here tell us how do you explain the current flare up in violence. i think it's very important that we look at the historical context of what's been going on in

jerusalem i'm really in in palestine this is a context of ongoing ethnic cleansing of palestinians and colonization of palestinian land and that's the latest to go on in jerusalem is just one manifestation of the attempted. families from the ship is really part of a larger intent to do dies jerusalem and to push boundaries in and out of jerusalem so the protests have really been this 2 that i think cleansing and on going on and they should and they've been inspired by their brothers and sisters in chefs who have been really remaining steadfast amidst this ethnic cleansing ok so you're putting this in terms of ethnic cleansing and the palestinians responding to that you mentioned the objections as well in terms of what might be causing the current flare up but what prospects do you see for addressing the issues driving this

conflict between israelis and palestinians. i think when the international community and acts as a cooling for calm and a deescalation they're really evading the responsibility that the israeli state has which is to end the occupation and colonize ation of palestinian land there is one aggressor in the situation these are not clashes. these are violent repression of palestinian resistance to the ethnic cleansing and colonize ation so that context is incredibly important when we're thinking about possibilities for the future possibilities to end the violence it really lays in the hands of israel ok so you're seeing this very much from a palestinian perspective in searching for a solution to the conflict how much of an obstacle though are the divisions among the palestinians themselves and their inability to even hold an election for example. well you are right in saying that i'm seeing this from

a palestinian perspective as a palestinian but this isn't only a listing in perspective international organizations and the un have long identified israel as an occupying regime and have condemned ethnic cleansing and evictions so this isn't simply a palestinian perspective it's actually an internationally held perspective now what's been remarkable about these protests and i would like to talk about the caste indians themselves if you wouldn't mind because. whenever you speak to that these absolutely yes the resistance and the protests that we've seen over the last few days as i was saying across historic palestine is remarkable i'm really really quite something to see it because palestinians across the so-called green line are uniting under this banner of save route which is actually really much larger than it's about resisting ethnic cleansing across palestine and so ok we're seeing and

credible scenes from another thread from haifa from ramallah from jerusalem of palestinians uniting under the banner of resistance against ethnic cleansing ok so you don't really want to address the conflict between hamas and fatah for example i can actually let's listen i want to talk to the new u.s. administration because the u.s. has often played a role as or tried to play a role as mediator in all this. administration promoted arab recognition of israel move the u.s. embassy to jerusalem gave a nod to israel's claim to the go on heights what are your expectations for the biden ministration. i think we're likely to see a continuation of u.s. policy which really appeases the israeli regime we might see a sort of friend we have faced the chump of ministration with such mean very crude . and certainly very obvious in its support for israel but i don't think we'll see a massive change in terms of u.s.

policy towards. israel we know that the us has long been an ally of israel has long been a donor of military aid to israel i don't see any changes any changes than in the days to come. dr quarry thank you very much for talking with us stuff was your a from the. in the palestinian territories shabaka thank you very much thank you. let's get up to speed on some other stories making headlines around the world today new government data in china show its population grew at its slowest pace in decades the world's largest country by population counted 1410000000 people in 2020 a net gain of about 600000000 since 2010 an aging population could have a long term impact on china's economic prospects. u.s. t.v. network n.b.c. says it won't be broadcasting next year's golden globes ceremony the decision for

those complaints about the live show that they call lapses and lack of diversity at the hollywood foreign press association which hands over the t.v. and film awards. u.s. officials have authorized the biotech pizer coated 19 vaccine for use in children aged 12 to 15 previously regulators had only allowed its use for those aged 16 and above officials hope giving jobs to younger children will boost the u.s. vaccination program which has slowed in recent weeks. india's new coronavirus cases remain close to record highs as the government faces growing calls for a nationwide law tuesday sold nearly 330000 new infections adding to the 22000000 cases reported so far experts say the actual number of infections deaths could be much higher and those dealing with the sick and dead say india's approach to

distributing back scenes and oxygen has failed. another coated 19 victim brought to an already overcrowded crematorium in the city of bengaluru. soaring case rates spurred the city to impose a lockdown starting monday morning. police in some areas are beating lockdown violators and seizing their vehicles. anybody. there. will be. for now bengaluru is markets and stores are closed. there aren't many people here but they don't maintain social distancing after providing some relief to the poor there's nothing wrong with a lockdown. vaccinations are proceeding slowly in

a country desperate for some way to bring infections under control. the big people are facing so many problems they are sitting on a powder keg they can easily get infected unless an alternative is found distributing the vaccines in more places like community halls or playgrounds. there's no countrywide policy in place and critics say the government has abdicated responsibility by leaving vaccinations to the individual states that's resulted in a scramble in punjab province people crowding a vaccination center put themselves and others at risk. we had to call the police to maintain social distancing but to no avail people are not listening to us at all and we have been telling them continuously since morning to maintain a distancing medical workers have mounted protests against the government's handling of the corona virus and the indian medical association has called on the

government to impose what it calls a complete well planned lockdown across the country. for weeks now states have been competing for scarce resources including oxygen. they've been left to the mercy of the market leading to more anger and frustration with the government in delhi. let's bring in our correspondent and we should judge while in delhi no misha given the dire circumstances with the pandemic in india why is the government hesitating to impose a nationwide lockdown. why you didn't even write knocked out and most of the country is leaving on business trips when will all give me just say d r c the door you know in many other districts not only i get a flu or a boss don so this hesitation to important national lockdown is being criticised still because i need to sleep that's enough time mission is still prevalent now

little bit yeah it's just or just a little and i'm not it's so pretty even was that maybe if you can be diagnosed left untreated because of a lack of health care and to stop so and would match the reasons that it's following the restriction in these e.d.s. is limited right now which is why going to once well i would last just national numbers. and then use analysis if i have the hesitation of the 92 will be government employees and i don't want this fact it's a monumental challenge trying to vaccinate the hundreds of millions of indians who are still needing vaccination is the vaccination program beginning to gather pace. unfortunately you can't quite the opposite in yes see the serious dip in masturbation at the highest level the cost will be going to insist on deep but

right now in this month it has averaged 1000000 to assist and this man this man has actually seen the expansion of the vaccination right to everybody about the usual bt now that my dad was being censored on this the stasi maxine's is of course the dominant one the steeped of knowledge and it's one's ability to carry out these toxic these vaccinations not to cure it was just from the manufacturers direct but another major factor clue beat back seeing as it did seem to mean really and looking into why it seemed that he could get enough to see the vaccine and hesitating in getting to the world health organization classifies the new virus variant found in india as a global concern now can you tell us so i know you're not an epidemiologist but can you tell us what makes this variant so dangerous. to actual have set it this way it is. and this is one of the criteria i think makes. some

of the other ones are still being empty so it's been processed it's very hard but it is does it in the end and people it is does it not have as news tonight and in fact or does it in the back not a lot of that sort of course increase good science or not this acting that product there is a bit you get the cutting solution and yet could happen if you were to buy this period why scientists may not see that the vaccine is a victim that is also explored if we can get it that seemed designed me have to be what if i if it is found to be smeared it is not to do that that seems to be not well absolutely in such way. and we should thank you that was. in delhi. well scientists believe the code 19 most likely originated in a wild. some researchers have turned their concern to pets are furry friends could become carriers of the disease and even develop potential mutations dangerous to humans finland and the u.s.

are working on jobs but russia is the leader of the pack it just released the 1st coronavirus vaccine for. those who do this it will be this cat is a pioneer albeit an unwilling one catch a cat is one of the 1st recipients of the 1st ever a covert 19 vaccine for animals this. is owners daniel and say they signed up for the vaccination just to be on the safe side. our cat goes outside a lot sometimes he doesn't even come home at night because he's doing his own thing but he lives with us so we're always concerned he could bring an infection home with him we plan to start a family and heard that code could be dangerous for pregnant women so it's better to be safe it doesn't hurt the cat. the vaccine will provide these cats with immunity from the corona virus for at least 6 months according to the doctors here so. animals can show respiratory symptoms of the disease problems breathing

a cough or a loss of their sense of smell essentially the symptoms are the same as they are for people just in a much much lighter form. but it's not the symptoms themselves that are a concern here the world health organization has warned that animals including minks could become carriers for the corona virus and even pass it back to people last year 17000000 links were called in denmark after some of them caught covert 19 . the russian made vaccine called carney back of could prevent that according to developers the country's veteran. mary and cultural watchdog was not zot began trials on rabbits dogs cats foxes and other animals in october now they say the job is ready for mass production. and vaccines developers say there has already been demand for the job from businesses in several european countries including in

germany it has not zorra recommends the vaccine for animals kept in close contact including at for farms and zoos they say that for now pets like these cats are very unlikely to become a risk to their owners. today marks the 10th anniversary of the landmark treaty on biden suggest women and domestic abuse the council of europe conventional so known as the istanbul convention states says that states have to response have a responsibility to prevent all forms of buttons against women must promote equality between women and men and must protect and support victims it was the 1st international legally binding instrument to combat against women when it was open for signature in turkey 10 years ago so where does it stand today for more of the let's cross to istanbul and speak to celine. she is

a women's rights campaigner and volunteer at the more chatty women's shelter foundation in the turkish capital thank you for joining us ms turkey recently withdrew from the so-called is stumble convention what effect is this having on women in turkey. we also do have facts in long term but we extract some changes this miscellany national law because it's you know i don't need some common sense and it gets old well once and wanting not for long term campaigning against only quality and against women's message rights so we extract that's new attacks or increased airing out it's not even clear international mall and all the others are precedents of the moment c c. ain't our only that it's already started discouraging moments of lying to support

records you say there's been a long term campaign against women and turkey would you say that women's rights which are guaranteed in international conventions are they not taken seriously in turkey. they are not the folder is really. programming the rule of law we turn a little some right so i can see it in your law and the implementation is irony in the pronunciation i'm more aware of the government's. women saw it starts that # they aren't from where we are told that he's very smart who are probably well as all of us will leap to taking out only on their massive drawings in the near future because they have already taken all right. let's talk for just a moment about the corona virus pandemic because that's left many people trapped in

their homes sometimes with a violent partner given what we just talked about have women suffered as a result of the pandemic. actually women ask them for a thing a lot of your faults are mechanisms in turkey and a bad implementation practice this minute. because they all find anything that excuses and they declines. their eye saying that it's not come to that we currently plan that mix so it's at least was the government's bread implementation amberg on tanami that lets the money nighters hungers you know that and supports. you're putting the blame for the what you're saying is the difficult state of women in turkey directly on the hands of the government what do you think

still needs to be done then to guarantee that women's rights are protected and turkey. and whole cities are lying on gender equality. because not only in turkey that's where the president open the lag he doesn't believe in the color. i mean all dads the star requirements against the man at the core problem if you lie as a home in a coma. and so. i. don't like. you decline the slack and then all the action against you months writes are encouraged to start with her markings and quotes. so lame be it goes and it's temple thank you very much you know. one of the most enduring and visible symbols of the pandemic is undoubtedly the

face mask here in germany we've been wearing them for at least a year they're required at work and in many public places one photographer put out of work by the pandemic decided to turn the mask into his muse. further. it all started a year ago when model and photographer marcel gregory shuck had no work and a lot of free time. in the cold. war and on which machine as i sat down and said i'll just try something how do i look with a mask on what do people see right now when they see me with a mask. that. he then travelled across germany photographing people with and behind their masks

his photo book behind the mask collects a broad variety of types and characters it shows people in the midst of crisis from all social classes and experiencing various emotional states. the viewer is confronted by their expressively intense gazes. moment how this is right now or facial expressions are reduced to just the eyes that's why it was important that the eyes really shine and with these 2 rod lights you have very brilliant reflecting these lights then when you blow up the images you really feel like you can look into people's souls for us come to mind on the mention in his initial. in front of stocks camera people are candid revealing their state of mind whether

they're famous or not. actor due to how the thought box is against the pandemic actor ben becker in a monkey costume wrestles with being human. enviro they just send the cash take regrets that the fronts are increasingly hardening. for a violinist the pen demick is like a dramatic pas. and a geriatric nurse shares his insight that experience makes you smarter than when facts from ourselves stuck these encounters were a lifeline during the pandemic. did you keep up on what you remember hamburg's barn is really beautiful with colorful lights lots of people and that evening when i walked along there it was almost like a ghost town but the door opened and it was like an explosion of color pink wig great makeup and at that moment the darkness was completely gone and human bodies

that is a duplicate computer from. the book is about hope and grief about struggle exhaustion and confidence the photographer is not concerned with the politics of germany's coronavirus response he simply paints a picture of life at the moment of the pandemic reaches those for me this is a cross-section of our society a reflection of what it looks like on our streets but that's also the intention behind this book to show people that they're not alone with mr and i'm. just a reminder the top story we're following for you here today on d w israel has launched fresh air strikes on tuesday against targets in gaza as hamas fired dozens of rockets towards reform both sides have reported several deaths in gaza but conflicting death tolls the escalation in violence follows days of protests in east jerusalem. the forget you can always get d.w.
