giving supplies to medical facilities that's what we are focusing on right now and we also work painting in the water and we also documents we document what's happening worth noting that unicef has been transparent on the ground for more than 50 years in and in the gaza strip and across the state of palestine and so it is important that we do have supplies so what we're doing is we're seeing where the needs are so that we are able to send the supplies to those who need the most and the needs right now i'm most in the medical areas so that doubt. has workers are able to provide assistance to the wounded among the many children we do hope and that the violence does not escalate any further and it's a calling on quite pleased to the conflict to take a step back to deescalate to consider children to stop the violence and to bring

its solution not via violence to this crisis but also on saturday and israeli airstrike destroyed a tower block has in the gaza or offices of a number of world media. it's also contained private apartments and businesses today one was evacuated priority attack after an hour's warning from israel is ready army claimed that hamas machines in the building to coordinate rocket attacks un's had expressed this might be a wave of growing civilian casualties in the israeli palestinian conflict and lash back to the destruction of media offices in casa we talked to an al-jazeera journalist who worked in the building. now how worse our picture cut now

we will real will not be able to deliver a picture to the world it's very difficult to me to see the semaj it's very hard for many years in working this place covering the news covering the balls the attacks in gaza now there's no brick sure from your office on him or something you know i feel very bad i want to say that we will we will continue to deliver our message we will continue to cover the news in gaza thank you will continue to tell the the message of the palestinian people and to deliver to the all over the world ok this you would do won't be able to stop our voice while you take it you are building and this won't be easy no we will continue this would be easier if the their target were building undestroyed it will continue from anywhere from gaza all the offices of journalists of gaza to the it will be our office. garza's also firing waves of rockets at israel the anti missile defense system

there though called the iron dome stopping most of them from getting through overnight there was a large scale rocket attack on central and southern israel television the sound of air raid sirens and explosions filled the air with rockets lighting up the night sky at midnight that came immediately after a 2 hour cease fire declared by the militant group hamas came to an end and on saturday to a round of rockets was fired at television at a television suburb claiming the life of 55 year old man there according to reports he was unable to make it for a bomb shelter in time the israeli military says more than 2000 rockets had been fired from gaza into israel since monday around half of which have been intercepted by missile defense systems in turn 350 fell on the garza strip. well meanwhile page european cities witness violent protest in protest with thousands calling on israel to stop the use of force in garza demonstrators burned

flags and threw stones and bottles at police who responded with tear gas and water cannon a number of arrests were made. was was was. they were. was. that. well the conflict has also sparked tensions too between israeli arabs and israeli jews who have lived side by side for years. palestinian demonstrators clashed with police water cannon the to proceed against the crag's while police remove believes which had been put up in the colors of the

palestinian flag a week ago protests over the possible of actions of palestinian families from a neighborhood of the city did spark demonstrations which i thought have been the starting point for the current escalation between israel and gaza now the palestinian city of hebron in the west bank also soren responding on to the streets to this week thais were burnt in the roads as protesters clashed with israeli soldiers other cities in the west bank have also seen violence.

with violence has been flaring too in israel on thursday for example some disturbing images did come from the city of batty am an arab driver there was assaulted by mopes he was seen being beaten after reportedly being pulled from his vehicle when trying to flee. sent this report from the city. in the israeli town of which is just to the south of jaffa and outside tel aviv jewish youngsters have gathered here and they offer matching cars that presumably they think belong to arabs there's also an ever owned i spin shop down the road and the glass has all been destroyed. a b i n fittings in front of the building they've come here with the israeli flags to show their support and this is in what tell me a sense of the finance we've witnessed in the last few days which has been predominantly arab on jewish violence so the so the police are firing bang grenades

and trying. to police firing stun grenades and they trying to get people to run away from here and. you can see the security officers coming down the road and they are trying to push the crowd further and further away from here and a lot of the youngsters have moved down the road. they have finally come in to try and deal with the situation and bring order and calm back to back to yum. yes i think that. the arab driver wanted to drive into us he pressed the pedal to the metal and wanted to kill us luckily he couldn't do it because another car stopped him because otherwise he would have killed us this is our country and they come to kill us in our own country arabs who live here want to kill us no small children died in the streets because of the arabs now we've come

here and the army and police are against us. we can't continue like this is not good what the jews are doing is not good for the arabs are doing the government isn't doing anything so this is what's happening each side is doing what they want for 70 years we've been good neighbors and it's a big that is happening now now we have to make sure that things remain good between us this can't hear was being driven by an arab men they took him out of the car and in an attempted lynch that he has been taken to hospital in the same happened over here with all the sorrow i mean here the same happened with this car down the road here and. another attentively and tensions high they've been also shouting at the journalists and checking which channels we all belong to so we're going to make our way out of here it's not the safest place to be. r.t.

. well throughout the week israel has been amassing troops along the gaza border having called up thousands of reservists that has led to fears of an imminent ground invasion of the hamas ruled gaza strip israeli troops though haven't entered the enclave although artillery and tanks join the air units and firing into the strip former israeli defense minister in a fairly bennett insists that israel was attacked 1st and has every right to defend itself let me show you something this rocket over here landed this morning home next to the bed of a 9 year old child this real thing landed what is proportional if this learned to your own family's home and killed your own family what is proportional no one is really should die because of unprovoked calm us attacks that proportional if they want to stop this they can stop and disarm themselves stop

fighting israel and they'll be peace period. no civilian death physics up the bull and that's why we have war the fact that hamas uses civilians as human shields it means that to some us is murdering its own people by hiding cowardly behind to civilians by hiding its command centers within buildings that belong. in the hospitals or or schools this is a cynical 'd way of operating and they hold they wrecked responsibility to all the deaths the days that were going to sit back and allow murderers terror groups shoot and 'd kill jews those days are over and if numbers seem slanted all it means is that israel cares more about its own people than hamas

about killing all people are planning to take down. any come us operator commander and command center because last monday unprovoked started shooting rockets and israel they decided when this round would start israel will decide when it ends my call he spoke to the former pink floyd front man and activist which was about 2 previous he believes that global civil society can force israel to surrender occupied palestinian lands. unless some pressure is brought to bear upon the israeli government to stop the ferocious murderous attack upon on gaza they're not going to stop of their own accord their will is not going to suddenly disappear but clearly in the long term. the israeli occupation of palestine is untenable it is not a future the composite piece of by public opinion is changing all over the world

and they are not going to be allowed to get away with it by the by global civil society in my view again you understand i have to give israel's point of view all not they say an israeli court has ruled prior to 948 was in jewish ones and the hearts because of jordan it was taken away from them this is not an equal conflict this is not when we're talking about gaza which will can a barrel full of fish in the israelis as shooting into it with hugely efficient weaponry and them and you talking to me about what some israeli spokesman is saying about what's going on in ghosts or and how that the next thing you'll be telling me is that rockets rained down on jerusalem or something it's equally nonsensical. story which they've been said they've been saying the same thing over and over

again a single state from the rivets of the say a proper democracy with equal rights all rights equal equal human rights for every reached single citizen all people citizens all the jews all the arabs all citizens of a single state from the rivets of the sea that would. that would have a chance a real real chance of working you know what because it speaks to the collective managements of human affairs that we're all going to have to a job to put in the safe this fragile planet from this from what we're seeing on our screens here. still ahead the sad devastation tragedy death russian city grieving this week when a gunman stole into his own school and went on a shooting spree leaving 9 dead back at the mall just after the break.

the world is driven by dreamers shaped by those with. no dares thinks. we dare to ask. for. the laws in states is lawful. pursuit is not a country that's founded on we've got a lot of deals so country that it's only been slim for any no apology it's a country that's sailing today because of the you know policies that he has created

installed it all into juiced over time both domestically and the world as well. welcome back to the weekly now a tragic event shook the russian republic of tatarstan on cheese day a man opened fire on a local school in the capital khazan 9 people died including 7 students and to teach is one more than 20 of this were injured in the attack is a timeline of how the shocking events unfolded.

let's look for the clip here i was in the close in the 2nd floor we heard bangs that sounded like explosions 1st because the classroom doors and not let the children get near the windows we told them to sit down along the walls and try to calm them down to look at something the student a man with a gun ran into the classroom and started shooting people he didn't shelter to see but before he did this we heard an explosion right under our classroom after that our teacher told us to hide under the desks all the little things she might it was a must last moment we heard a shot and at 1st we just thought that it was furnished being smashed and then the shooting came close at the door was ajar and i saw that the man had fallen the teacher began to hold the door shut we did not have a key and she told us to run while on the 1st floor one window was open and we all rushed to it will fall in the shelter but no one was hurt badly there were no deaths.

in the city if you're not on the scene of the do you live. in. the. north it's my uniform or do you like. him. here. clearly there are no above what is the law.

as you see from the little one of the numerous ambulances emergency crews and fire trucks are at the site later isaura teacher covered in blood getting pulled out of school and about 4 children being carried away yeah all. yeah. well 9 people are in a critical condition sorry 9 people in a critical condition were airlifted to moscow for specialist treatment to children have undergone surgery with medics still fighting for the life of a boy who was shot in the chest up to 15 paper remain in hospital in cars than better said to be in a stable condition at his down hole can spoke to some of those who were caught up in the tragic events. shock pain grief on the

faces of all those who came to pay their condolences the images of children jumping from windows of floors covered in blood shock the world here in the accounts 1st hand was worse well 1st of all we came to school as usual heavy thing was fine when the class began the teacher called me to the blackboard and just a few minutes later we had several explosions but no one was concerned and the class continued only some time later we had the school director telling us to immediately close everything and leave the room. with the show which everyone was deeply shocked we owe our lives to our math teacher who saved us she ran to the door and locked it. she was holdin it very firmly alina and still seem in a state of shock and they were among the lucky ones for them the nightmare is over though nobody can say just how long the mental scars will remain for others the

nightmare has just begun. its race to the school when he 1st heard news of the attack hoping he would see his sister evacuated to safety and bring her home she was too late. communion to. the doors of the room where my sister was together with her classmates weren't locked so the attacker broke into the room and shot the students her name was and mine is that's because our parents wanted our names to sound similar she studied in a form she was 15 she was a very resolute girl she had big plans for the future to finish the 9th form and get an education and 19 zul thought nose on the day school staff did all they could to protect the pupils risking on someone losing their own lives in the process he would be the only one asking questions though could more have been done to prevent this tragedy and how can it be stopped from happening again. we should probably

strengthen the school security as now we have mainly elder people working there also we should organize drills like the ones for fire safety and explain to children where they should go and hide if such tragedies happen. the bloodbath in school 175 how to clear a villain but also some unlikely heroes the son of the local imaam escaped the killer who broke right into his classroom only to run back into danger to rescue his injured younger brother who thankfully survived despite being badly hurt. after we were taken out of the school to safety i went to search for my classmates the ones who managed to survive when i found them i went to search for my younger brother when i failed to find him i searched for his class teacher and then together we put my brother in an ambulance and the teacher sent me with him to there were 4 people with me in the ambulance one was my classmate who jumped out of

the window on the 3rd floor to escape that nightmare the other was my brother who had his chest injured also there was a boy with his lip badly hurt by a glass fragment and one girl was sitting there with her hand almost torn apart. everyone i spoke to had one question why how is such cold merciless cruelty possible towards anyone let alone children. was confident but good prevails over evil and that khazan will emerge from the nightmare stronger. this tragedy has united everyone regardless of their ethnic origin or religious belief people from other cities are coming to mourn with us we must stand together in order not to witness such events in the future he invites us to evening prayers at the mosque today and tomorrow our holy days for muslims either future or breaking the fast understand the focus of today is on one of the darkest days in total stands modern

history. outside crowds continue to turn up an endless stream and aside from the pain on this day of mourning determination is also present not to let evil break the city spirit which today has shown its strength daniel hawkins r.t. . well because an shooting suspect has been identified as 19 year old you know now as he was a former student of the school where the attack happened and the perpetrator used the pump action shotgun for which he had a license well c.c.t.v. footage has been posted online and revealed saying the suspect brazenly carried the gun all the way to the school in fact he can see the routine reportedly took from his house which are a journey that took just over 10 minutes however questions do remain as to why no

passers by called police to alert them it is one of a number of issues the incident is race including what might have led the suspect to carry out such an attack or those that knew him said it went totally against his character on wednesday the suspect pleaded guilty and was remanded in custody people in the court here said that he showed no signs of emotion during these proceedings psychiatric tests will be carried out to assess his mental state we discussed with experts the questions this type of tragedy has once again. our society not able to screen this before we've got really big mystery sions a situation schools how can a profile of this work well through all of that and nor would you so are those who was on the verge of committing this massive business of killing i think that's the serious issue today that all of our societies have to tackle is to pinpoint trying these persons and every he'll go on an awful lot of people with mental illness of one form or not they have extreme views and if you give these people guns you've

got to expect at some stage that these are going to go wrong so the less chance in society that the safer we all are it is no secret that you go on the internet you find out what to do and how to do it and this is a this is a problem for all societies blind we know at least in the research that i conduct i have is the leading cause of gun violence in schools so bullying revanche stand and side effects of state richard mattick he stands have been found to be down. because of school violence one of the most important things that we need to do is we really have to work to intentionally create a very safe school climate working together collaboratively with parents with teachers with administrators to really identify those students who may be withdrawn who may be quiet who may have struggled a recent loss who may be a victim of bullying who may be struggling academically or they have behavioral issues and the more that people can come together and identify the more that we can

be proactive rather than reactive you can watch and we can hear not international be back with more stories in the last 7 days and about 30 mins. elderly forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. i robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such orders that conflict with the 1st law show your identification we should be very careful about artificial intelligence the point of view seems to degrade trust our government here. are very chary with artificial intelligence where some of the. the obama's.
