violence in over a year. we spoke with correspondent rebecca readers in jerusalem about how blinking visit could impact this very tense situation. the real substance of the visit may not change all that much. the 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, and throwing his support behind 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 as well looking at an expansion of the abraham accords that is a normalization of israel's relations with its neighbors. that will be looking towards saudi arabia and that 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 in 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, 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 for the 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 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 you 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 of recent polls 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 all 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 to w correspondent, rebecca readers into brucell. and thank you, rebecca and here are some other stories making headlines. and ido, secretary general has urged to south korea to provide military support for the government in ukraine. yen stoughton berg has been meeting officials and sol hoping to persuade the government to reverse a long standing ban on supplying weapons to countries engaged inactive conflict. turkeys president wrapped up, ty berto on has suggested his government may agree to finland, joining nato, but not sweden. the 2 nordic countries applied together to join the military alliance last year,

the start of the war, russia passed a law forbidding what they called the discrediting of the russian armed forces. for example, any one who called the war a war rather than a special military operation, as the authorities dictated, risked long sentences. hundreds of russians who openly protested against the war and criticized the kremlin, have been taken to court. some have been imprisoned in the jolly cause apartment. the authorities tried to find evidence that would prove that they had broken. the law says very as mother yelena, they found nothing. even so the jolly cars remain under police observation. yet anna says her carefree life is over. she no longer feel safe. you should think warden as, as the 3 years ago, i couldn't have imagined anything like that happening and russia associates a day. i no longer identify with the russian state in unless it just the child or

the state is causing us too much pain in my children. and me, i said, i don't think we can expect anything good in russia and the next 20 or 30 years ago when my children will become adults. and that's why body as family doesn't want to stay in russia much longer. it's just a matter of time before they move abroad. she says, rodya has ambitions to become a great musician. free of any worries about the police, la, and let's get more now from d. w's moscow bureau chief uri of a shadow who filed that report. he joins us from riga, from where he has been operating since russian authorities closed down d w. moscow office are good to see you uri. tell us a little bit more about our conversations about important things and why this subject is so important to russian authorities. was this

a school subject sarah was introduced in september last year. it is supposed to teach students to laugh at their homeland in a theory. that's absolutely okay. but besides teaching kids about famous russian artists, painters are either us. the point of the lessons is often to present the boy against ukraine as a war of liberation and the lessons often also, oh no. russian soldiers who died in ukraine as heroes in the struggle against the best. and sometimes those who are or not, our former criminals who fault in the private mercenary army of the inter planner, you've giddy precaution in the so called, ah, wagner group. and after all, it's no longer a secret. the precaution promises free them to prison inmates in russian prisons if they go to war. so, by the way, a 2nd subject is to be introduced in russia in the next school year. also, the so called basic military training and beach of the students will be learning to walk and step and how to handle the weapons. this subject goes back to the old soviet tradition in russian schools. is there much in the way of visible opposition

to this warren russia uri all difficult to say how many people in russia would take to the streets to protest against the boy if they would be allowed to do so. because those who criticize armed, the so called special military duration, that spot this call is still cold. and russia, a war is still called in russia. those people are more and more afraid to do so publicly ab, they're intimidated by draconian laws which can carry a long prison sentences and they can be denounced. they call ex neighbors or even family members. but the truth is, sir, that there are still many people in russia who go to war will entirely. and just because of the money, especially in the provinces, and many people are poor and the, the money they are promised to fighting for fighting against the grain seems like a lot of them. in a few weeks uri and it will be a year since this war started. what impact has this had on russian society?

well, i would say is the last, almost 12 or 12 months have made people in russia and more for yahoo and unsecure on the road. different periods are in public opinion on these war after the 1st shock from the start of the war, russian armed forces walk. why successful on the front lines in the beginning, combined with the propaganda effect, saw that a sense of patriotic euphoria hit. some people in russia, then there was a sense with some russians that their arm army wasn't so successful after all in doubt began to arise. and ultimately the mood changed pretty much when putin announced the mobilization in september last year. and now, as there is maybe kind of an indifference in russia, many people are just trying to leave earth, even the war had never happened. knowing full well what is going on to w moscow bureau chief uri with shannon joining us from riga. thank you.

for his non violent resistance to british rule. that helped bring about independence in august of 1947. on january 30th, 1948. he was assassinated by a hindu nationalist d. w. south asia bureau chief. i'm right. a cima told us how india is marching this anniversary. 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 bit law house, and there you had hundreds of children gathered. there were going to recite present thing, gandhi's favorite hymns. then of course tributes have been boring and you mentioned the prime minister in that in that or more the also the lead of the opposition and as we gandhi from the congress party that is gone. these are 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 moves, non violent struggle. and he also what he called civil disobedience and the uniquely 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 a hindu extremist around 1000000 people came to grieve at the funeral of the national and in many ways global hero and arisa. gandhi, i fought for a secular indian faith that accommodated both hindus and muslims. and was eventually killed by a fanatic hendo nationalist as we, as we heard there are today's divisions fil is 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 this, of these divisions is there is a certain county developing around the assassin of mart, my gandhi. his name was not to run. god see, you have not to far from delhi a temple dedicated to him. you have his touches being erected in various places. of course you could say that he's a fringe element, 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, now, in football, the russia doormen celebrated a 3rd straight victory in germany's bundis later on sunday evening,
