a cease fire was definitely in the pipeline. positive. you can see the rock is behind us. uh that is, it is right wrong cuz there were showing at the moment into assisting uh the rockets from gaza or so the say saw if it was going to be coming into effect was supposed to be coming into effect around about now. we just heard from the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and his defense minister, you'll have gallano. neither of them officially announced that. so as far as you can see, the rock is still firing the way i'm told of this is quite usual that before cease fire both time through tend to do fire as, as, as you laid out to that time where the safe, i would be cold. but at the moment, still no official would on that. so he's fine. the residents on both sides hoping that this will be over soon. as you mentioned, 21 palestinians already killed in this,

these rocket 5 as well as well as that has happened in the last couple of days. and now you've mentioned these rated governments and we're getting reports that nathan yahoo has spoken about this is fine. cool. cool. did provisional, uh do you know anything more about that? it wasn't just mentioned they the prime minister did just speak inside of the defense minister. they haven't officially called this say far neither have the other side. but we did, as i mentioned here from egyptian media that sci fi was actually underway. but that was that with just media reports. so it, it certainly is from all sources from people on the ground we're talking to. and it does seem that all sides want to reach a safe spot, though they weren't quite the was the benjamin netanyahu was using in his press conference just a little while earlier when he sent out all the security services. he thank the idea of uh, any. thank of residents of israel, but i know i mentioned he said that he also said he was like sending

a message to the islamic jihad saying we will choose when we attack and not you. so he very farm was there, but nothing by way of nothing that sounded a minute later. like i say it's fine with going to take effect. we're still waiting, still hoping, as i said, it was supposed to be was room is that it was going to be happening around about now, but same, this rocket fly that you've seen this evening. it hasn't taken effect. so dramatic scenes that thank you very much. rebecca, with the correspondence. thank you. colton focused on his rules at form, a prime minister in wrong. com can be held in custody for up to 8 days. con was dragged from coals, interested in his dom about on tuesday, sparkling widespread protests across the country. at least 5 people have been killed, according to media reports, and hundreds of his supporters have been arrested off the clashing with authorities . and then also both cost of the g. o. new says con has been indicted full,

political victimization. this is a that asked which was not done at the behest of the government. it is, and that is, that was made by the national accountability bureau, the institution that as of was to look off to corruption cases in the country. meanwhile, a pack of stony cooled and dilated and burned cons. unreal. slaves sending state gifts during his tenure and approved 8 days the physical ramones of him run con. in another case, if convicted, he will be disqualified from becoming premier again. machine a boss as a journalist from his. i'm a boss. i also earlier whether the reported shutdowns of social media affected the protest as well. so these are very good at finding ways to

go around being censored because it happens quite often. but what does that mean? the 2 main reasons why it has been blocked is so that people who are come to the streets are not able to coordinate with each other, not able to communicate with each other. but uh, it seems like the dns working by cosign, so people have gotten around it. but many things like dick talk, twitter, facebook, things like that. if, if you don't have access to the dns, you're unable to access them. but as of now, people have been able to access them. okay, so they didn't have any influence on the protests of understands you correctly. now, it's called what were convicted. but what that lead to even logic protests a more political term, while you know these things are um, hard to fully predict. uh, people are very charged right now. the economy is not in a good state of people don't have jobs through p is crashing buckets on is almost

gonna default in june. if we did not come up with a do with the i m s. people are really struggling. so there's a lot of anger if, if he is in yes, then there might be a lot of backlash. but honestly, it's only a time, although we have to see where the tips may fall. we, we, we don't know any predictions as of today our, our, our mainly guesses explained to us, why do you think the form of a prime minister has so much support among the population as a file? well, man, hon has always been popular. he was a famous cricketer, he's an icon, he is a personality that people have loved and he has been able to capture the imagination of the youth and not just the youth, but women as well. he's able to speak their language, so he has been able to capture the biggest part of focused on this population, which is the youth. and he has,

he's because he's had popular popularity from before. so hence, that's really kind of translated into his politics. thank you very much, the machine abbas a journalist from as well. i'm about to eritrea. now one of the wells biggest jailers of report has independent media. i've been banned since every tray. i became a dictatorship in 2001. the company is a news and to information black hole says, report has without borders during the crack down on john list. the rights and poets juggle emphasis on the balance who was incarcerated, and tortured, dw is malia and the measurement next out in germany to hear about her experiences of the stuff. okay, saw of this douglas center. how about and go but and i little good enough. is that many of us to fuss and that's how or another now you're out of the hands of the
