amnesty international said in a statement that israel has become an apartide system and its treatment of palestinians is considered a war crime. racism, murder, genocide, these words now joined each other. the legal path of... renouncing israel and completing the genocide case of the regime by setting up legal case in africa was victory. it wasn't surprising, but unprecedented. does this mean that all legal efforts and international capacities should be used to condemn israel? definitely not, even if the gavel comes down as we speak, and the audience who are in this hall stand up as a sign of respect for the court's verdict and the most important word. are prepared with appropriate legal loads to deal with israel, and in the room known as the red room, even if its words are adjusted, israel will not still accept it. netanyahu, but the mere claim that israel is committing genicide against palestinians is not only false, it's outrageous and the willingness of the court even discuss this is a disgrace that will not be erased for generations. itmar bin gavir, the zionist. regime's ministe

you can add reports of multiple human rights organizations from amnesty international and the testimonyked to over there. i heard one of the criticisms being that you only spent 10 days there. i talked to people who lived there for generations. the word that came up constantly was apartheid. i was little puzzled when i returned about why there was so much debate over this? there seems to be broad agreement across that it is actually that. >> i heard you say that this is the only thing somebody should read. >> it is not. >> there is a passage there that is strong and emotional. someone speaking to president biden from a member of the war cabinet when he was in israel. he said that his message was to the president,did not come to israel to hide. that was his statement. he was talking about his own daughter who has a hiding place at home in case the worst happens. after october 7th the fear is all over the country that it could happen anywhere. is seemed to me that it captured the intensity of the emotion that israelis are living with now. >> i understand that. that is a real thing. my pol

obviously are are living it's absolutely horrendous, i mean even according to the united nations amnesty international and so many other organizations which have actually done a fact related finding missions to investigate exactly what happens within these prison cells and the excessive use of forces, the sort of punishment or so sort of a collective punishment on you know the certain prison prisoners, it just is absolutely... horrendous to the point where you can't even describe, i mean we've seen thousands and hundreds of you know blogs and vlogs and people sort of even the idf itself talking about how they boast about taking these pictures with the prisoners, i mean it's humulating enough to actually be showing the sort of conditions that they're already living in and the way the torture that they are suffering and at the same time taking all these sort of pictures and posting them up... on the media, i mean it's horrendous, i mean even all these smaller international organizations have done these finding facts um researches and they find that this is the most appalling, they are actually... kept i

you can add to that the reports of multiple human rights organizations from amnesty international tomony of the people i talked to over there. i heard one of the criticisms being, to niece -- i was a little puzzled when i returned about why there was so much debate over this. there seems to be broad agreement. you know, across that that is actually what has happened. >> i haven't heard you say this is the only thing anyone should read about israel. >> it's absolutely not the only thing anyone should read about israel. >> bob was here monday night, and there's a passage in there that's very strong. it's very emotional. it's someone speaking to president biden from -- a member of the war cabinet when he was in israel. and he said -- his basic message was, to the president, that jews didn't come to israel to hide. that was his statement. he was talking about his own daughter, who has a hiding place at home in case the worst happens. and after october 7th, the fear is all over the country that that could happen anywhere. and it seemed to me it captured the intensity of the emotion that i

that have been targeted, the black ethnic groups — they've been told by the icc, as well as amnesty international, which is a black ethnic group, will constitute what could be considered genocide. but then, the other ethnic dimension to this has been the army has also attracted backing from groups, especially in the north and the east of the country, that are quite powerful, but also ethnic armed groups that have come in to say, "we will stand with the army "to fight the rsf as well." and so, that has raised fears that essentially the country could split in the middle with the groups, with the rsf and the ethnic groups in the west of the country, favouring the idea of having their own, erm, civilian administration, but also then, on the east, the army retaining the backing of those powerful ethnic groups on that side. what success, if any, has there been for the desire to get the parties together and talk it through and find a solution? so, saudi arabia and the united states have, from the onset, been very vocal on trying to find a peaceful solution to the war. there have been rounds, all of them

but international organizations, including amnesty international here in front, say the french weapons all use defensively, and these are all day long hold on from a to store. that's right. the 1st time we've heard from the french president in terms of what's in those days, or i'm sorry to bother. i'll just say we're still a hands on the elders era. this policy about special coverage. and this rolls year long genocide and gaza will take a look back of the decades across the board of tensions between has paula and israel, of how they started the is really forces seek to silence the truth. cindy occupied westbank storming and shutting down houses. here was bureau and ramos, the truth must be protected and hurt. and the stories of real people must be told. this is not just an attack on journalism. it's an attack on the world's right to know. journalism is not of coolant or pressing it is from a the narrative to media was from propaganda to the changing face of journalism. i have never seen the lead media consensus change, so that is me post the codes, the media hold on just either as the

canada stripped her of her honorary citizenship, and amnesty international withdrew its highest honourwhen you set that against what your mother sacrificed throughout the duration of her life, did it hurt that so many people denounced her? it hurts me for sure. i think that, given what she has sacrificed, people could at least look into things a bit more before denouncing her, so...as they did. and...if they did look into it, they'd see that she was actually trying to do everything she could to maintain a very fragile peace. peace and democracy had to come before the rohingya situation, because the rohingya situation could not have been resolved without peace and democracy. was she worried that if she spoke out more critically, more firmly about what the military were doing with the rohingya, she would have been toppled, and the country would have been plunged into civil war? i don't think she was worried about her being toppled, so much as the democratic process being toppled, yeah. do you wish she had spoken out more firmly? i think she spoke out a great deal. it's just that what she

busy to as of 3 co been 90 deaths in belgium were in nursing home. amnesty international found the local or far he was slow to implement protective measures in the aged care sector and didn't seek hospital treatment for many inspected patients. we understood on the nature that the biggest massacre, if i may call it that way, was taking place in nursing homes. they were absolutely not prepared for such and the nor list um the mound of people dying in high numbers. i think the other thing was our public health authorities absolutely not being prepare to maybe be overconfidence like we are in belgium. what could happen with a private nursing home in the city of live and provide specialized dementia care to 120, with patients to spread across debrel, communal units like this one with dedicated teams of carrots and the legacy of all of us to be very few minutes, you know, next year 5th push the new when close at 19 sheets, the vineyards director young bun waves took a different approach to most aged care facilities. the prioritized quality of life. when patients fell sick, they were confined

and amnesty international says the actions of bulldozer drivers such as mizrahi, constitute war crimes and call for them to be investigated. these really minute trees, relentless campaign of ruined and gaza is one of wanton destruction. research has shown how is riley forces have obliterated residential buildings for thousands of families from the homes and rented the land uninhabitable. these homes were not destroyed as the result of intense fighting. while the v is wally minute treat deliberately raised the land after they had taken control of the area. we spoke with the leader of the palestinian national initiative political party mustafah bar cody, and he says that western media bias cannot stop the troops about the war from emerging . it's tragic for the fact that 150000 palestinians have been to the door and judged by those earlier army in the most of the way. it's tragic because is early autumn you can 17000 children. and it's tragic because these is that are the saunters will have some psychological disturbances to have it is to the ground, $80000.00, how it's 80 percent of own

let's speak to aya majzoub, deputy regional directorfor the middle east & north africa at amnesty internationalu very much forjoining us. lots to discuss, one of the things that it has been striking is the evacuation orders that have been issued by israel they have been doing that in gaza and lebanon. talking about that just a little earlier on the programme, what have you found? we are seeing the same tactics that israel used at the beginning of the war in gaza and now here in lebanon. that is why we are sounding the alarm for significant civilian harm. the israeli military has almost been releasing evacuation orders for an entire towns and villages in lebanon up towns and villages in lebanon up to 100 villages as of the, up up to 100 villages as of the, up to 100 villages as of the, up to 150 villagers as of the latest odds today. it is just instructing residents to leave their homes and travel north which is about 45 to 50 kilometres from the border with israel. the military did not specify any specific military objectives that people should stay away from so in our assessment of these evacu
