u.n. security council. amy: talk about the facts on the ground in gaza.t is happening there just since much 30th has gotten almost no attention in the u.s. media. people might have thought i misspoke when i said -- when i talked about the casualties, both the dead and the number of palestinians who have been shot and injured by israeli forces. gazae entire situation in in many ways is getting closer and closer to a humanitarian catastrophe. in some aspects, we have already arrived at that point. i think witten people usually discuss humanitarian calamities, it is the result of some natural disaster. in gaza, everything we are seeing is the result of consistent policies that have been applied by this point, already for more than 10 years. in discussions of issues such as deteriorating quality of water, the most basic essential need for human living, that is not something that people woke up to a week ago. it has been years. that is something we have all been walking toward, stepping toward are ready for quite a while. and now we are reaching those results.

u.n. security council. said -- "take a look at the discriminatory planning mechanisms and the separate legal systems in the occupied territories. they are reminiscent of south africa's grand apartheid." >> yeah. we tried to make a nuanced point there, because often if you make that point, israel will say, "how dare you compare these two realities? we don't have laws that say that palestinians and israelis cannot sit on the same benches," for instance. and indeed, we don't. at that is w why the distincnctn was made therere between petty apartheid and grand apartheid, not those aspects of apartheid -- the benches, the separate beaches and so on and so forth -- and i'm not talking here about restrictions on movement. but to focus on the issue of the policies, the legal systems and, of course, voting rights. amy: you also wrote in harretz, -- "what are the palestinians supposed to do? if they dare demonstrate, it's popular terror. if they call f for sananctions,s economic terror. if they pursue legal means, it'

u.n. security council under chapter 7 on iran's ballistic missile program. that was largely lifted under the security council resolution that memorialized the iran nuclear deal. i think iran understands that they have a lot of running room. as a consequence of that. so you see it. i was at bowling yesterday, and we have new exhibits, sorry to say, we have new missiles and other weapons that have now been brought to the united states from the battlefield and you can see the missiles there in farsi, very clearly, one that was recovered in yemen, you can see the industries stamped on the missile parts. if you look at the missile i was talking about that flew from yemen to the saudi airport, right by the airport there, it's stamped with shaheed bugari industries. it's impossible to miss. they feel they can do this with impunity. that's something that the international community ignores at its peril. we have to get after this problem. >> at this time, if you all have questions you want to pass to the audience, we'll collect those. in just a few minutes -- look at

u.n. security council that up to four hundred thousand ranger who remain in myanmar face severe restrictions and russian our diplomatic editor james bays. i think it was the meeting they tried to stop russia china and bolivia voting to attempt to block a briefing by the un zone fact finding mission on myanmar china said it was an internal issue here were even though over seven hundred thousand people fled the country into bangladesh to escape the violence russia said the report of the mission was biased and unreliable even though it runs to four hundred forty pages of searing testimony as the security council veto doesn't apply to procedural matters the chairman of the fact finding mission was eventually able to give his damning conclusions our report characterizes the recent events in the right hand. as a human catastrophe there which will see able and plan one that will have severe impact will many generations to come if not for ever the details of the report clearly had an impact on some i never thought in my eight diplomatic career that i would hear a briefing to the security council as

u.n. security council members and it is rare reference to in the u.n. security council resolution did tehran expect this to happen this ruling. iranian expectation is that. the. next. task for the all sanctions that are threatening sanctioning iran is preventing american companies from doing business with iran is basically bullying the whole of the international community and saying we will punish anyone one who does. with iran and therefore the. violating the sovereignty of a country part of the world even their own allies and the european union and the united states is trying to strangle iran in order to make ordinary people suffer so that they could for pressure on iran just as what they're doing for example yemen though in their more that would work stream case where they're trying to create starvation . solution to get their way in our line is incredible we will try and keep talking a little bit further if we can side because i want to speak a little about the actual ruling because it is quite limited in what i'd say that talks about humanitarian is

u.n. security council the u.n. human rights council of the u.n. general assembly i can tell you for now though no request has been made by any of those countries or any of those bodies and in the meantime what have you been hearing at the u.n. on the situation in yemen. well of course this is in some ways a connected issue the un security council is meeting to discuss the situation in yemen which is only getting worse and of course the situation in yemen is in part a result of the intervention of the saudi led coalition so it's yet another area in which saudi arabia faces international scrutiny and criticism and certainly a meeting called by the british ambassador karen pearce to update the security council see speaking now has just heard from the humanitarian chief of the united nations mark lowe cockney he looked last briefed the u.n. security council on the twenty first of september he then said that he felt that the numbers at risk willow to rise to eleven million people he's now revised that and said our estimates are much worse than we thoug

u.n. security council as well as the u.s. administration getting through this very bruising fight over a supreme court nomination that very much involves sexual misconduct allegations of sexual misconduct it's also less than one month until the u.s. midterm elections and these elections are going to be very very pivotal pivotal for the direction that the country is going to take and another administration official stepping down so close to these elections doesn't make of the administration look as stable as it might want to march in washington thank you. let's look now at some of the other stories making news around the world the u.s. supreme court's newest justice a brett kavanaugh was promised to be impartial and a team player after being sworn into office of the white house it went on to say that he had no bitterness about his contentious confirmation process earlier presidents trump apologized to justice covered up for what he called the terrible pain and suffering he and his family and your family. a former vice presiden

u.n. security council for the past month and we also have the midterm elections coming up in a month this is something that's been hanging over the entirety of u.s. politics for the past year if not more so this really does hearken back to the old days of the trumpet ministration if we can call it that what it seemed like someone was resigning every other minute and it adds to this picture of the administration looking in unstable less than a month out from these elections so how does nikki haley's departure how it's not likely to affect u.s. foreign policy well this will somewhat be answered when we know who the next person is who's coming forward and there have been a couple names floated around in the pipeline and nothing confirmed at all yet but there is some fear from the establishment from the left wing that whoever is picked next will not be as moderate as haley has been and will be much more of a hard liner which could in fact push the u.s. even further to the right on the international stage and make for less room for negotiation in these tough diplomatic circumstances so much fo

u.n. security council so whether she was waiting to finish up that month to announce this or whether she wanted to wait until all of the controversy that been happening in the past weeks over the supreme court nomination blew over is unclear and again it's still she's very much obvious gating the exact reason why she wanted to leave now what does her departure mean for u.s. foreign diplomacy u.s. foreign policy. you know her moderating voice was something that trump really came to depend on and they disagreed on many key issues one of those issues in fact being sexual assault sexual misconduct but another big issue that's been paul hanging over this administration has been russia haley was really someone who totally very hard line on russia on prosecuting russians who had been accused of meddling in the u.s. election as has been an ongoing story here in the u.s. something that trump was not so big a fan of we know that trump is very fond of russian president vladimir putin. and it means that whoever her replacement is there's a lot of fears that might be another or very hardline right wing pers

u.n. security council has endorsed this deal so the u.n. shoe to fall you know played a much stronger role in protecting this deal and in polishing the party that is why elated at what the solution that has been announced today if only you know it seems to be weak and fragile because it only orders the u.s. to halt humanitarian i mean so. actions for humanitarian purposes should be halted also on the sanctions there to harm iran's civil aviation and history should be halted but they've kept silent older there are sanctions against iran and its people therefore i believe it's been good only as a starter but not enough action it's been do you think this means washington will change its course of action towards iran at all or will it go ahead and impose those new sanctions that it's been threatening to do for quite some time. well surely not as a matter of fact your reporter pointed out very properly that the us saw a warrant to lay sanctions idea i.c.c. as well as a prosecution of its judges would be under way by the u.s. actually because the
