in washington, d.c., we are joined by sherif mansour, the middle east and north africa program coordinatoror the committee to protect journalists. we welcome you both to democracy now! before we talk to sharif abdel kouddous about the al jazeera cameraman who bled to death over five hours, can we put this in a broader context, sherif mansour? talk about the astounding number, the horrific number of journalists who have died in gaza. >> thank you for having me again, amy. i already talked to you at least twice. the number only goes higher. we have since talked about that pattern of targeting journalists, their families -- specifically when we discuss al jazeera and al-dahdouh's family. they really are rewriting what it means to be a journalist today. the never before seen sacrifices that palestinian journalists, local journalists so far -- the overwhelming geordie are killed by the israeli army. the israeli army has killed more journalists in three months that any other entity or army have done over the course of one year since 1992. this is the most dangerous and the most we have ever seen

we discussed the situation around yemen live with our colleague, chief birovka in the middle east and north africaation between the houthis and the west has been going on for several years. elizaveta kharamtsova looked into the history of this issue. she is now in direct contact. elizabeth, greetings, when did the houthi movement arise, who is its ally, and with whom exactly is the confrontation going on now? daria, good afternoon, but alliances and coalitions in this region are constantly changing. let's talk about the latest decades. the long-term conflict around yemen has generated a lot. statements that have become common wisdom but are fundamentally false. perhaps the main misconception is the version that iranian proxies seized power in yemen. the houthis, with whose hands tehran allegedly destabilized the situation in the country and almost started another war in the region. but in fact, support from iran is a consequence, not a cause. hushida is a large independent force that, since 2015 , has actually been responsible for what is happening in yemen. zaidism became the ideological basis. t

so i was the first chair in a very long time to open an inquiry into the middle east and north africa did that was i gave a speech back injune last year where i said we were going to see the gaza crisis of 2023. now, i didn't think we were going to see it in the way we did. i didn't think it was going to start the way it did. but all the markers were there for conflict. but the problem within the uk politics, and actually even more in america, even more in canada, is that people seem to feel that they have to be divided — you're either pro—israel or you're pro—palestine. and i have tried to fight so hard against that, but it is difficult because people see it as black and white. the history is so complex. i will never pretend to be an expert in the history and what has happened in the past. but also the sensitivities are enormous. and so i've tried to walk a path where i say, "look..." you know, back in march i was saying we had to be a criticalfriend to israel. and we have failed historically to be that critical friend, let alone when we've got the current government in israel who ha
