11:39 pm
weapons including us supplied bombs and ammunition on civilian areas, leveling thousands of residential blocks and leaving tens of thousands of innocent people dead. according to official. figures, most of those killed in non-stop air and artillery strikes on gaza are women and children. gaza now has the highest numbers of kids with amputated limbs in the world, while at least 16 thousand children have been killed all in just one year. a military campaign that has have the highest level of killing and destruction that i remember in. any other military campaign since i am secretary general anywhere in the world. the regime has also deliberately and repeatedly targeted camps, schools, medics, journalists, un and international aid workers, making gaza the most dangerous place in the world for all of
11:40 pm
them. the regime has also systematically destroyed gaza's hospitals for the worst and the already catastrophic situation. this is the regime has also closed all border crossings effectively. trapping the entire gaza population, that's not the end of the tragedy inflicted on palestinians. their suffering is increasing and made a blockade imposed on humanitarian aids, bringing gaza closer to firm. all these are happening to palestinians in the costal strip in broad daylight and be closely watched by israel's western backers and the so-called defenders of human rights. find safety, as very limited access to humanitarian resources and the humanitarian response here is being completely strangled.
11:41 pm
thousands of people have once again taken to the streets of central london to make one year since the start of israel's genocidal campaign against palestinians and to condemn the uk government's complicity in it. said purreza has sent us this report from the british capital. the 20th national palestine solidarity march in london. that terminated outside the british prime minister's office, was a time for protesters to reflect on one
11:42 pm
year of western-backed israeli genocide in gaza and to renew their call for it to stop. as she's shouting in the background, there should be an occupation of the palestinian state, which was is really for palestine. we're not comfortable with genocide, we'll never tolerate it, it's wrong and we'll always stand up for what's right. it was. so a time to direct their anger at prime minister kier starmer and his government, who have all but ignored much of what two-thirds of britains among the members of the jewish community have been calling for year, an end to uk complicity in gaza. united states uk and europe um facilitate uh the holocaust in effect by supplying arms and diplomatic cover sometimes and it's it's a... of course completely wrong, because they become not only facilitators, but partners in this
11:43 pm
holocaust, and they will have to answer for it eventually, and it's that lack of accountability at the present moment, campaigners here say that's enabled israel to expand its genocidal war beyond palestine. it is, appalling the attitudes being taken by not all, but most of the members of security council. they uh said they wanted a ceasefire, they indeed called for a 21-day ceasefire in lebanon, which was um supported by all except netanyahu, so netanyahu seems to have more power and more influence than every other country in the world put together. as the world fails to take meaningful action to reign in israel, there's recognition here of one country's action against the settler colonial regime. iran. has shown its leniency diplomatically, it provided ramps for israel to take a
11:44 pm
diversion, but despite that israel has pushed the button and force the iran, iranians to react, and the fact that iran has reacted also shows to to israel itself and the public that if they are pushed, people will start up and stand up for their rights, standing for their rights and those of the palestinians and now the lebanese, after constant attempts by politicians at demon it's been a year since israel unleash its western back genocidal campaign on gaza and public opinion in this country remains resolutely on the side of the palestinians and today's demonstration marks an escalation of that movement to stop the israeli regim for a wider war. cypera press tv, london. i now understand. stand the 76 years of palestinian supporters from across south korea rallied in the capital soul to demand an end to israel's
11:45 pm
genocide in gaza as the violence marks one year. in the face of israeli atrocities, palestinians remain optimistic as more people understand the reality. to be honest, october 7th is when the world finally paid attention to palestine and israel, even now people can see the truth that israel only wishes to erase palestine and the people there. as... israel expands its war into lebanon and beyond, concern grows among people here, so i see attacked in palastin and it's a very dangerous about all arab country, no. just palestinian, not justnan, it's very dangerous about egypt, about jordan, about every country in this area. research has shown that israel attacks when the world is not watching. with the us election, the war in ukraine and other news vying for headlines, international attention through this kind of activism is critical to pressuring israel and
11:46 pm
its sponsor, the us to end the genocide in gaza. koreans today demonstrated their solidarity with art, dozens of rallies supporting palestine over the past year have had an effect on public understanding. last year no korean people know anything about palestine, but now you can see many korean people support to palestine. south korean civil society and their knowledge of the sources of this conflict have been crucial to spread public awareness. this is a war of aggression being carried out by the united states. israel together. the us says it's against expanding the war to other parts of the region, but in reality it's providing israel with information and strategic support, making it easier for israel to wage war so that it can massacre the palestinians. as israel brodens its attacks, civic groups here promised to increase their activism supporting palestine. frank smith, press tv.
11:47 pm
soul. it has been one. year since the israeli onslaut on gaza began. already besieged for over one and a half decade, palestinians have been facing genocide since october last year. but the war on the defenseless people in gaza is not just the story of deaths and destruction, rather story of defiance by a brutal regime and the solidarity movement for palestinians that transcends the borders. countless people around the world have refused to stay silent, people of all races, faces and nationalities have marched raising
11:48 pm
their voices for justice from people of the region to those across the west. the cry is the same, and the genocide, free palestine everyone fails to mention 1948, 1968, when israel created an open-air prison and prevented ghazans, palestinians from living or having just decent life, and now they are starving the people, they are bombing schools and hospitals, and the people here are protesting to say that that's not right. pro-palestine protesters risk the police brutality, unlawful arrests and even state intimidation while standing against israeli war crimes. the united states and some western governments, complicit in israeli crimes, tried to suppress these movements, yet the global solidarity for palestine is
11:49 pm
unstoppable. as we approach the one-year mark of this genocidal war, the message is clear. "this is not over and it will not be forgotten. from the streets to the digital media, the call for palestinian liberation has grown stronger. it seems that the common people, not their pro israeli governments around the world, have come to the conclusion that their token of solidarity means much more for palestinians who are being massacred and facing ethnic cleansing by a brutal regime." " now joined by camilla escalante, press tv's correspondent from toronto. camilla, very good to have you with us, one year into the aggression, these worldwide protests that we are witnessing, tell me about those, and of course tell me where you are right now, and what are you seeing right now? well, protests here in toronto and throughout canada and north america have continued a weekly basis. we've had emergency
11:50 pm
rallies in recent days and weeks because of the aggression. against lebanon, and this is the largest crowd we've seen in a very long time, thousands and thousands of people, i don't have an estimate at this time have come out to support uh, this cause of course 12 months on from the start of uh the amplification of this genocide in gaza. what we have today here in toronto is very large contingents organized by labor, union, workers, we have organizations and... contingents that organized and came here together from the different communities, lebanese communities, latin american diaspora communities, filipinos, and of course university students who have had their own series of actions here in toronto, including their own encampment that lasted two months, so we're it seems like there's a bit of a revitalization of the movement here, which
11:51 pm
has always been very strong in toronto, and the demands remain the same, the primary demand here today is the two-way arms embargo between canada and israel, the activists here say in the main convenient organizations have said that they do not want uh any... more of the discourse or the sound bites from the government of uh justin trudeau in ottawa, what they want is real significant end to any the aid in uh any of the ways in which the canadian state and its weapons manufacturers and the components manufacturers have aided this genocide uh by the israeli entity in gaza. they say that that remains the primary demand, particularly as this is a city that has very long large arab community, including a lebanese community that has recently felt the impact and their families have felt the impact back home in lebanon. camilla, we're
11:52 pm
witnessing uh crowds like that in different towns, different major cities around the world today, marking the first or the anniversary of the attack of the israelis on the gazan people and now uh the aggression into also lebanon. uh, what do you think the significance of marking such an occasion would be? well, i think it's very important that uh, that the government here, that these people are still mobilized, whether it be the communities that live in the suburbs around toronto, whether it be students, whether it be representatives of labor unions and political parties that we see so many of them here today, and the different communities, besides the araban muslim communities, like i said, uh, from different ethnic communities around the city and country, are calling for the same. demands that they've been making all along, that canada and its complicity, and they say that canada may have a smaller role than our neighbor to the south in the united states, but it continues to have very
11:53 pm
important role, and as we reported previously, the international center for justice for palestinians, a group of lawyers has been trying to take the canadian government to the international court of justice. they have said and they have done all of the investigation and collected lot of. evidence showing that canada has not fulfilled its international agreement, it international commitments to stop the genocide in any way possible, and that's a case they're still trying to take to the hag right now. thank you, right, every single voice counts and matters. thank you so much. that was camilla escalanter, press tvs correspondent in toronto. the islamic resistance in iraq says it has carried out fresh attacks on israeli targets. in the occupied palestinian territories.

11:55 pm
has drawn hundreds of scholars, activists and policymakers to address pressing geopolitical issues with the occupation of palestine at the heart of the debate. our correspondent shahana bott reports from sydney. thank you very much. muslim families have gathered in sydney for two-day conference organized by the islamic forum for australian muslims. the primary focus of the convention is to build up muslims unity for the cause of palestine. fouri hachabri attended the convention to rally support for newly launched organization called muslim vote matters. she believes that it is time for muslims to initiate grassroot moments in support of palestine. 51 weeks every sunday people are turning up to the palestine rally, regardless of rain, hill or shine, i have hoped that the world believes
11:56 pm
in the cause and the world believes in. justice: like fariha, larisa dolot also has a reason for attending this convention. she is here to encourage fellow muslims to sign petition to stop the genocide in gaza, with plans to send it to law makers on october seven, which marks one year of ongoing conflict in the basaged gaza strip. this is the time when all muslims, regardless of what background they are, they must unite. we this... this is the time when we have to come together and advocate for the liberation of palestine. as for the organizers, this event is a crucial platform, connecting people, scholars and policy makakers every day on one the most urgent issues for the muslim world, that is palestine. participation in the islamic forum of australian muslims has grown offering an intergenerational platform to deepen the understanding of palestine and its
11:57 pm
critical global. importance: scholars at the forum have condemned israel's action over the past year, accusing the international community of tasetly supporting what they referred to as genocide. australian member parliaments reassured the muslim community of their full advocacy and support for justice. there will not be peace until the state of palestine is created. there cannot be enduring peace without it. it needs to have. happen, we will continue standing and we will continue rising and we'll continue advocating, and through a sense of unity will make it really clear, the state of palestine does exist, however, some were critical of the current australian government, with a former senator accusing albanese administration of complicity, to raise awareness of israely war crimes and crimes against humanity, and to explain why
11:58 pm
australia is complicit. "if we don't speak out, we also become complicit. australia's recent abstention from a un vote calling for sease fire in gaza has ignited mixed reactions with some australians criticizing the government for not taking a farmer stance in support of palestine." shahanabat. press tv, sydney. and that is a wrap to this hour's news bulletin. thank you for watching press tv. i am back. right, in the shadows of history, terror. was
11:59 pm
born, legacy of fear that echoes through the centuries from the streets of paris to the battlegrounds of apartide, a fight for freedom. the struggle intensified and heroes were labeled as terrorists, and in gaza new chapter unfolds. resistance or terrorism. the us and israel have their narrative, but what is the truth? who is the real terrorist?
