still tragic as well, whereas the israeli t shielling was maintained heavily against the isambard of almaghazi refugee camp, we have heard multiple explosion. in that area, the hamas resistance movement has given a stern warning to the israeli regime over the fate the remaining captives in gaza. in a video message, the movement cautioned israel that an end to the genocide is the only way for the safe return of the remaining captives. hamas also warned that netanyahu's war mongering policy will only lead to more deaths among the israelis held in gaza. on sunday, israel announced. recovery of the bodies of six captives in gaza's southern city of raffa. since then, there has been growing criticism of netanyahu for the captives deaths. people want him to quickly reach deal with hamas. 101 israeli captives are held in gaza. hamas says dozens of them have been killed in the indiscriminate

israeli air strikes. the families of the israeli captives have held a new wave of protests in tel aviv to demand prime minister benjamin netanyahu secure the release of their loved ones held in gaza. the protesters blamed netanyahu for

the death of the captives and urged him to sign deal with the palestinian resistance group to bring the others back alive. on tuesday night, tens of thousands of israelis also... gathered in several cities, including rahovot, hod hasharon and tel aviv, they demanded the resignation of netanyahu and his far right cabinet. the protesters accused the prime minister of systematically obstructing the gaza seesfire for his personal and political gains. they refer to new demands by netanyahu in negotiations with hamas that have provoked public anger. israelis, including the families of the captives have held rallies almost a daily basis since the regime launched its war on gaza, meanwhile, in tel aviv, scuffles broke out between protesters and israeli police on tuesday night.

the protest followed. a general strike called by the israeli labor union against netanyahu's handling of the war in gaza, workers shut down transport services, banks and schools in what was major blow to the israeli economy. netanyahu stands accused of blocking the gaza truce deal, with his insistence on the continued control over israeli created philadelphia and netserum corridors in gaza. this is while the hamas resistance movement has demanded a full israeli withdrawal from. the entirety of gaza as per any kind of deal. meanwhile, israeli war cabinet member benny gunt said israel should focus on bringing the remaining captives back home from gaza safely. and we

discuss the growing public anger against the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu in our news review program. let's take a listen. well joining us on this edition of uh press tv's news review, we have academic broadcaster and investigative journalist and researcher mr. david miller joining us from uh bristol. also we have spokesman of the international schiller institute from potsdam germany, mr. harley schlanger. gentlemen, welcome to the program. let's start off with mr. uh miller, i want to get your thoughts on uh the massive uh demonstrations by israelies. against uh the israeli prime minister benyamin netanyahu, these demonstrations have been going on for quite some time now uh denouncing uh the way that he has uh has continued with this war, prosecuted this war and has not been able to bring the captives home yet, well these are

ongoing protests as you say, and of course there's the associated uh apparent general strike which however didn't last very long, and of course these are not protests in f. of palestinian r protests against specifically the government's particular policy on the question of the seas fire. of course, as we know, as everyone knows, netanyahu is putting additional conditions. in the way of settlement, because he knows that if there was a settlement in a sece fire that he would be gone as prime minister, and that's that's the difficulty is that he his personal future is invested on keeping the conflict going, that's why there is uh movement in that regard, but these are let's remember not protests as i said uh to protect palestinian rights, they are the israely public is almost to a person united on the need for the genocide in gaza, it's just they want to carry out the genocide in a different way. right and mr. uh schlanger uh talking about

uh how netanial was obstructed uh any form of a ceasefire agreement. even uh israel's benny gats is saying that netanyahu is sacrificing uh the uh the captives uh for the control of the philadelphia corridor which uh which has also been seen as another way of just prolonging this war for. his personal gain, which we all know that um, by the time this genocidal war comes to an end, it will also mean the end of netanyahu's political lifeline as well, well, it's worth noting that in the eyes of most of the world, netanyahu is a war criminal, and the purpose the mass killing and destruction in gaza is to eliminate the so-called palestinian problem by eliminating the palestinians. now, in terms of the... position in the cabinet, the lead opposition figured lapide described

netanyahu as a prime minister without a soul, but i agree with mr. miller who said that this is not a protest against the genocide, and that's where the problem is with the israeli public, that they're protesting the fact that netanyahu is clearly lying when he says he's going to bring the hostages home safely, he has no intention for a cease fire, no intention to allow an independent palestinian. state, and much of the blame for this, besides the israeli public, accepting it, much of the blame goes to the biden administration and the american government, which continues to make vague threats to withhold aid, but has refused to do anything serious to stop the genocide, so the war criminal netanyahu must be stopped, ultimately it's going to take the united states to tell him, there'll be no more aid, no more money until he accepts a cease fire. and pulls the troops out. all right, thanks lot, gentlemen, um, david miller, academic

broadcaster and investigative researcher joining us from bristol and thanks to harley schlanger, spokesman of the international schiller institute from potsdam, germany. with that brings us to an end here on this edition of the news review, but uh, stick around, there's plenty more to come here on press tv. see you in a bit. the israeli regime's raids into the occupied west bank persist for the eighth consecutive day as palestinian fighters mount a fuerce defense. heavy clashes have erupted in genene and tulkarma with reports confirming three palestinians were killed and several others injured. an israeli soldier was also killed during the confrontations. the regime forces

deaths that occurred were all avoidable and those who lived in the tower were badly failed over number of years and in a number of different ways, by those who were responsible for ensuring the safety of the building and its occupants. the damming final report stated that the main contributors to the death toll were the failure of successive governments, indifference safety by authorities and lack of strategy by firefighters. it also accuses building material firms of system. dishonesty and the deliberate engagement to manipulate testing processes and mislead the market. the fire which spread rapidly through the 24 story block in west london. is said to have been britain's worst residential fire since world war ii. grandfall united, which represents the survivors in victims has called on the

genocide of palestinians unabated. the economic condition was very bad. "now the youngest leader of the soviet union was the ruler of the largest country in the world. gorbachev was preparing himself for better days, days when the soviet people, like the americans, could live well. people had pinned their hopes on gorbachev, and gorbachev had pinned his hopes on reagan. gorbachev knew if the united states collaborated with the soviet union, the europeans would follow."

suit, neither gorbachev's economic policies, nor his attempts to trade with the west, nor expecting international loans worked. the russians decided to stop the gamble they had started 15 years ago with gorbachev.
