a new far right government. the visit comes after a suspected israeli drones strike on a military factory in iran. efforts to contain t, ron are expected to be high on lincoln's agenda. correspondent rebecca readers as into rou salaam and i asked her how lincoln's visit is likely to impact the current tension. well sir, that's certainly a question. the many people here are asking themselves as that report really highlights just how high or how high the tensions are here for this visit. but as you rightly point out, it has been planned for some time so that the real substance of the visit may not change all that much. much de escalation was already on the agenda even before the horrific events of the last few days. but of course, now that de escalation comes with more, a greater sense of urgency. antony blinking will definitely be coming with condolences and, and throwing his support behind the us ally israel in the wake of those attacks.

but as well as trying to de escalate the situation and try to stop it from spiraling out of control. there are a number of other geo political topics that will be on the agenda, namely the situation v. iran, the threat of iran, something that the us and israel work very closely on and it as well looking at an expansion of the abraham accords that is the normalization of israel's relations with its neighbors. they'll be looking toward saudi arabia and that is, those 2 things are particular important agenda policy agenda for benjamin netanyahu . and the us will be looking to assist with that. but of course, now we will say that the escalation will overshadow, given the events of the last few days. and rebecca, given the new government in israel, led by benjamin netanyahu. what has been the impact on the u. s. is really relationship. i will, there's no doubt that the new a far right government here in israel is really testing that special relationship between israel and the u. s. the u. s. watching closely, they've already sent

a couple of delegations, a lower level delegations, to try and see how the 2 governments will work together. they are watching closely to see the direction that this government will take. the lead up to this visit benjamin netanyahu as a part of the response package. if you will, to the attacks on the weekend. they said that they were going to strengthen settlement they didn't give further details. but we know that strengthening settlements and expanding even in settlements is a k policy objective of many of the hard line members of benjamin netanyahu coalition government. but expansion of settlements is a red line for the u. s. for example, it's something that they say that they will not want to go ahead and do the blinking will definitely be wanting to hold any expansions and urging benjamin netanyahu to do that. that netanyahu knows that he has to keep the us on side. and so he will be trying to do a bell delicate balancing act, if he will, between the mo, hardline, members of his coalition government and the wills of the u. s. rebecca blinkin will

be meeting with a palestinian leaders to morrow. what can we expect there? tell us just briefly please absolutely blank and we'll be traveling to ramallah to speak with the palestinian president mahmoud abbas. he will definitely be reiterating the u. s. commitment to the 2 state solution. now that something that has really seen a diminishing popularity here all consensus, a recent poll suggests that that less than one 3rd of people on both both sides israel and the palestinian territories. don't say that is a likely a possible outcome. but on top of the usual agenda topics, he'll also now a, b, b, a on top of the original items. he'll also most certainly be urging the palestinian authority to restore security court coordination with the israeli. something that was said after the raid in the west bank on thursday. he w correspondent, rebecca readers in jerusalem. thank you, rebecca. and here are some other stories making headlines. nato

30th, 1948. he was assassinated by a hindu nationalist. d. w. south asia bureau chief, i'm right. a chima told us how india is marking this anniversary. will on the 30th is designated as martyrs day, and it is dedicated to all the freedom fighters who live their lives for the nation . this year it has special significance because it is a 75th anniversary of mart my gandhi's assassination. they've been prayers in rituals at the raj car. that's the place where gandhi was committed a day off his assassination. we've also just come back from the place where he was assassinated, a bid law house, and there you had hundreds of children gathered. never go to recite, present, sing gandhi's favorite hymns. then of course tributes have been pouring in. you mentioned the prime minister in that in that or more the also the lead of the opposition at other gandhi from the congress party. that is, gandhi's party paid tribute to gandhi's tremendous legacy. and newspapers,

of course, also carrying a lot of articles, analyzing the relevance of gandhi in today's india. where remind us of the details of that tremendous legacy, both nationally and globally of gandhi said, the biggest legacy that gandhi left is his struggle for freedom for india. and that also completely through non violent moms non violent struggle. and he also what he called civil disobedience and the unique leave a gun, the concept of san diego hare protest through pursuit of truth. let's take a listen to what can be achieved and his life in our report. mahatma gandhi, one of the most widely recognized figures of history, famed for advocating non violent resistance and revered in india as the father of the nation. gandhi began his career as a lawyer in south africa, but soon after the outbreak of world war one, he returned to his homeland. there he joined the burgeoning independence movement

and by the end of the war was among its most prominent figures. through marches, boycotts, and hunger strikes. gandhi hoped to show the world the power of what he called satya. gra, a form of non violence, civil disobedience. in his famous salt march, he walked over 300 kilometers to the indian coast to protest the british monopoly and tax on salt, and was joined by thousands of followers. gandhi, a devout hindu, worked closely with muslim leaders. he knew that tensions between the 2 religious groups was a powder keg. when british colonial rule finally ended in 1947, the sub continent was partitioned into hindu majority, india and muslim majority pakistan. gandhi agreed to it reluctantly, believing hindus and muslims could make peace on their own terms. this mass,

when massive riots broke out between the 2 groups, killing thousands. gandhi carried out what would be his last hunger strike to stem the violets? not 2 weeks after ending his fast, gandhi was assassinated by hindu extremist. around 1000000 people came to grieve at the funeral of the national and in many ways global hero and america. gandhi, i fought for a secular indian faith that accommodated both hindus and muslims, and was eventually killed by a fanatic endo nationalist as we, as we heard. there are today's divisions, still as deep said a lot. the grid tragedies of gandhi's. he gave us entire life for a non violent struggle, and he himself died at, in a very violent death. and the divisions that we saw that led to gandhi's assassination between an ideologically secular country or a hindu nation. are resurfacing. now, you know, in the past

a few years we're seeing india is deeply polarized in many sections of society, you're seeing the rise in cast violence. you're seeing minorities here feeling insecure and the worst. and the most disturbing a symbol of these divisions is there is a certain county developing around the assassin of mart my dandy. his name was not to run, god see, you have not too far from delhi a temple dedicated to him. you have his statues being erected in various places. of course, you could say that these are fringe elements, but even so that, that they should be tolerated and accepted in a country where gandhi is viewed as a father of the nation, is deeply disturbing. for many people, and they also feel that this is also creating divisions and going in a direction which gandhi would not have liked at all. armory to cima in delhi, thank you. ah, in football barissi
