the floor of blocks, the hospital and central gauze. the majority of the victims of an attack, one was as the refugee camp. our children believed to have been playing together when this pri kept further north in a densely populated area of garza city is really fire struck again this time hitting a vehicle, carrying police officers where we received a report that there had been a targeting. we went there and find people torn to pieces by witness to say, the targeting was carried out to strikes those who survived the 1st rank. we're targeting the 2nd one. the did a load it up. that's why the survivors are taken to hospitals. that can cause we're operating with minimum capacity. we received an unusually high number of injured people. were limited in staff, so which split the cases between our alley and come all add one hospitals. women and children continue to make up the vast majority of those killed in this for
8:03 am
children with playing and were taken by surprise with me. so i was pulling on the nothing was happening, things were calm. the are of countries and not taking sides. look at this, you can see these are not resistance fighters, it's a little child. besides an outpouring of grief, there's under here, anger that truly of the world. so what was happening this for would in any more of the of the a rough ends thundering doesn't mean all is ready for us. is that still in the town of 99 east of hebron and the occupied westbank, a large number of his randomly chosen builders. as entered the town, these images show the demolition of a published in the in the home as well as escalated its rates across the outside west bank. as it continues this bombardment of concepts that is a little cabinet has met for the 1st time since that ron's unprecedented attack on
8:04 am
saturday. around 300 miss solves and friends were launched in the 1st of a direct strike on his row from iran to iran. says the attack was invitation for the bombing of the uranium concerts in damascus. 2 weeks ago. israel has vowed to respond to 0, stephanie, back as following developments from occupied east jerusalem. no clear statement coming out of tuesday, back and forth with the war cabinet, actually met some reports saying they met in a smaller form that there was agreement on how to counter it wrong and its proxies . but it was the timing that's now being debated. the other major leaks saying that there wasn't a word cabinet meeting, a tool that these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu met with a security officials at the minister defense intel. i believe what is clear is that it is an incredibly complicated situation. is also why we haven't heard yet from the prime minister himself is always talked about iran as an ex, essential threat to israel since that attack we haven't heard from him at all. he's
8:05 am
under pressure from a foreign countries from the americans, from the brits from the germans, from many others, not to escalate that. this is a time for call them at the same time from within his coalition government, within the people that are keeping him in power. the only way he was able to return to power as a prime minister, people like a budget or smart tricia. it's a by that and give you a once in a very direct and harsh response to iran. so a lot of pressure on the prime minister, the tulips continue, so media reports indicating that there is certainly a consensus that the has to be a response, but the timing of it and what kind of shape that is going to take, of course, is a big question mark, stephanie decker o g 0. it will keep white east jerusalem. the white house says it will soon announce a new round of functions against iran. it also says that expect its allies to follow since after there was island fisher has moved from washington dc. as the americans have been talking in the last couple of days of greek or sanctions on
8:06 am
a run, we know that the bite and white house to bite this national security team. i've been talking to the g 7 and also a number of important allies and the mood music coming out of the white house is that the sanction should be in place within the next 2414 hours or so. we had from the treasury secretary janet, you know, and it will be her department that will be responsible for putting the sanctions in place. and she said the sanctions will be up and running within the next couple of days. and then we have had moved recently from national security advisor jake sullivan, who suggested that there will be targeted sanctions. i miss out on the food industry. now, the joint industry and around has been a consent for the united states for some considerable time because they've provided drones and technology to the russians. and those joins have been used on the attacks against ukrainian infrastructure. and of course, the have been the sanctions in place before,
8:07 am
and the united states thinks that they can go farther this time and really degrade the military capability of the radiance. even though it seems that that didn't quite what the last time. but what the state department has said in the last 24 hours is that perhaps the sanctions lead to the reigning an attack not being effective as possible. that perhaps was slightly more symbolic because we don't have the equipment, the material, the technology to build themselves. that can really challenge these really air defense systems on that point. take sullivan says we are also working with these really is to make sure that there is better coordination. more integration in air defenses across the middle east. so we should expect some sort of announcement in the next 24 to 48 hours. and at the same time, the united states is also what kicked to make sure that israel's response is perhaps proportional to the i can send that if there is something hugely significant and that provokes the iranians. there is every danger that the us will
8:08 am
get dragged into a wider conflict. something that they've sort to avoid since the war started in guys a back in october. and of course they've given pledges, is that their support, their defensive israel is iron claude. and that means they could be dragged in to a wider conflict in the middle east. i would say, sure, i'll just go to washington. are you an agency for palestinian refugee says it's received numerous reports of master tensions. it will treatment on the enforced disappearance of palestinians by these randy ministry. the report comes as palestinians month, prisoners day on wednesday, with thousands of people accounted held in his writing ministry jails. his regular authorities have at least $1500.00 detainees from garza since april 4th, including women and children. unless, as all of them were held for weeks and military facilities with no means of communicating with family. torture is also alleged. meanwhile, and his reign the human rights group, as well as that using his way, the politicians of functioning,

8:10 am
worsening conditions. no electricity. this will food or some light. this will access to medical care and torch of life. you was to lose my mind because you have nothing to do. they are full to every single man. alsa. it's one of 23 known is right, the ministry presence, and the only one in the occupied westbank, the number of inmates is increasing rapidly. well, let's take a look at some of those to 6 on posting and present us. this being about 8000 palestinians arrested since october, the 7th. that the equivalent of around 44 people every single day, according to official, is ready to take us when the war began in october. they would just say it's a $5000.00 promising is incarcerated in this friday jails. now, we're looking at more than 9 thousands. and many of those are being held in administrative tension without any formal charges or trial before the war that was
8:11 am
around $1300.00. and since the war that number has just up to move is 3600 policy and inmates before the war. they was 33 women behind boss. now there were more than 80, that was $170.00 children. now that number is more than 200. and you don't want to get the role of the violation being committed to. they are about the humanities ation. we are talking about the worst period of that he needs no just the conditions, but also the scale of abuse and is rarely prison guards are boasting about the crimes they carried out on it up is ready to these channels, 13 broke costs video of how god's show of the treatment of prisoners with videos like this posting is worried about the state of their loved ones. well, some received the worst news. they didn't survive their imprisonment. is right. the
8:12 am
authorities, a withholding the bodies of these 26 postings who died in custody, more than half of them in the past 6 months. so families have not been able to bury their loved ones, nor hon. i'll just sarah the occupied westbank. a senior member of the ron backed group has the law has been killed and, and his really dren, strike in southern lebanon. investigate to say he was targeted while driving in the area of an bar tensions. and i'm 11 on as well. go to have escalated significantly of probably about 70 a time. the man of across the in the of divided westbank says these randy ministry was involved in the killing of 2 palestinians on monday fella bonnie java who witnessed the attack says soldiers supported the is ready. settlers who find indiscriminately the latest getting comes off to a 14 year old is really when missing, the ramallah was found dead on saturday. so you and human rights office has
8:13 am
condemned israel, its military involvement in south la finance. and the outside. westbank is really security forces must immediately end their active participation in and support for set their attacks on palestinians is really, authorities must instead to prevent further attacks, including by bringing those responsible to account those reasonably suspected of criminal acts including murder or other unlawful, kennings must be brought to justice through a judicial process that complies with international human rights standards and follows a prompt, impartial, independence. effective transparent investigation was born rabbani is from the center of conflict and humanitarian studies. he says several of volumes is a symptom of israel's expansion is as the settlers are armed by these rarely states they operate under the auspices and with the protection of these really military. so to address settler violence independently of is really state and government
8:14 am
policy doesn't really make much sense it's. it's the equivalent of addressing the symptoms while doing nothing about the costs. the role of the policy didn't authority. security forces is not to defend palestinians from attacks by his relatives, but rather to protect israel and its occupation from resistance by its own people. the policy and authority security forces are prohibited from operating in those areas outside the main cities where most of the subtler violets take place. and they've also taken a political decision to actively cooperate with israel's army of occupation in order to prevent policy need resistance to exactly these kinds of instances of southern violence that we're discussing now. so the policy disorder is simply not a factor in this equation, except that it can be seen as yet another auxiliary of israel's expansionist
8:15 am
policy. in the occupied westbank and united nations security council committees. as a still unable to make a unanimous recommendation on a pallet study and bid to become a full member of the un. but these are some by subject to the unit and says she doesn't see the decision leading to a 2 state solution. so our position has been clear, president biden has said categorically that we support a 2 state solution for addressing the situation in the middle east where palestinians will have a state of their own. and israel is secure in their state and we are working on the crown to get to that place as quickly as possible. we do not see that doing a resolution in the security council will necessarily get us to uh, to a place where we can find a solution uh, a 2 state solution moving forward professional product here. and i'll just say it
8:16 am
right when we come back, why are university and california counsel valedictory speech about top students have a security concern and you frames president, find a new miniature approved from one plains, western nations, find interest, send enough ammunition to stop russian attacks. mona state, the the hello, let's see some really nice the weather recently around the middle east device, $44.00, i'm going to be just afraid in only 6 hours it move right close to cut out, but it's in the process of pulling out of the way 24 hours, we've seen a $64.00 millimeters of rain. let's compare that to the annual average. it's about 8 months with a freight in just one day. it will make its way for the east west, but you can see the impact that it had on the by,
8:17 am
as it's made its way across some law trial reported here as well and damaging wayne's. but as you can see, widespread flooding it has of course, cause major disruption. it is in the process of easing further east west, but call it out the possibility of another shower ro to as we go through, why to stay on in too fast. they, the worst of the weather will slip across southern paths all around into buckets down as we go through the next couple of days. and the normal service resumed, more in the way of very warm sunshine sunshine. continuing to across that eastern side of the mediterranean, where the scientists stay the say settled. we will say some showers petering out as they make my way across the bus for us. the show is a page ring out to across the northern pos opportunity as to what a risk went there across north africa, but lossy fine and try. and so the shot was that it took the gulf of guinea of the
8:18 am
in thailand. defamation is a criminal offense. critics, a powerful people, a using the quotes to sign and it's with the lowest 101 east investigate. so allegations that defamation cases are being used to bring to mutation and concealing corruption. speaking up in time, 91020, reporting for the extra 3. when i'm hearing the facts arabic content has been removed or restricted, i'll just say it was teams across the world. bring you closer to the hosp to the store. the, [000:00:00;00] the book about you watching out as a right quick reminder about top stories here. this hour,
8:19 am
these randy ministry has killed at least 40 of us demands, including many children, and a series of attacks across casa injured have been rushed to hospital, which i already overwhelmed. a man who witnessed the coming of 2 kind of commands and a session of attacking the outside. westbank on monday says these randy minute trip was involved. bonham's came off the 14 year old. is there any boy went missing? the romano was late to have found the palestinians month business day that you incense has received numerous reports of master attentions and most frequent bodies . ready monitoring the chinese and the upside westbank to the i'll just say about suffering repeated torch. now google employees of stage citizens to protest against protect john's business with these ready government protest as violating the companies offices in new york in california, google unrivalled tech from amazon, reportedly signed a 1200000000 dollar contract with these way the government back in 2021. the project nimbus deal is set to provide cloud computing,
8:20 am
infrastructure and services to there's really government not only is the lack of transparency concerning, but just the context of which the contract is being taking place. and we know that the genocide in plaza is one of the, or is the 1st a power genocide. so we find that big tech is that the forefront of kind of like, streamlining this genocide against palestinians. so let's bring in remish attorney by somebody is a professor that you'll see a lot of departments of information studies that joins us live from los angeles. remish good to have you with us. so tell us briefly what exactly is project and investment wise the project. so controversial that even google employees, that we just sold the an out protesting about how it's being used with these raises the warrant gauze that continues. so. yeah, so project, nimbus is a, is a, is a contract that google and to a lesser extent, amazon web services signs with these really governments for $1200000000.00 back in 2021. and as,
8:21 am
as the person who was interviewed in the or story indicated is actually a shocking lack of transparency around exactly what this project covers outside of providing inter operable comprehensive cloud computing, which is essentially systems of data storage, data management and sharing data for the is really government, which of course is likely to extend to these really defense forces. so it's, it's a project that rocking it's, it's a project that marks and, and, and, and, and sort of highlights the direct connections that big technology companies in the united states have not only to do with the so called military industrial complex, but to directly aiding and abetting is really government at a very, very, very difficult time. yeah, and that's an interesting point you make because the recent international court of justice routing compelled israel to prevent acts of genocide in gaza to then big
8:22 am
check companies be held responsible if it's found that the software help is well to target palestinian civilians in gauze of input to be held as completed to genocide . absolutely, because we know that these systems are actually, i have a number of false positives associated with them. that's there's a reporting that came out just in the last couple weeks on this. so these really are actually using big tech, american big tech, corporate software to predict targets and put the probability that the target is where they think that, that the, that they will um, you know, engage and in a sort of a violent act. right? so basically, the way this is working is corporate, american, big tech is actually aligned with many of these really military's actions. and these particular ways. and the fact that a systems are being used indicates that there is a lack of regard. the body is really states and the idea and obviously connected to this uh, big tech companies in the false positives meaning that they know and everybody
8:23 am
knows these, the systems will make mistakes, right? so that there will be wrongful death and wrongful assassinations. as we've seen with so many civilian people. yeah. in gaza, they're basically complicit in such in the sense that they, they, they are signing contracts with the state rama. so do we know then if the google and to a netflix and amazon that's setting this kind of technology to other countries or many trays and once they sell it, do they have any control of how it's used? right, i mean that's, that's very dependent on the specific agreements that any big tech company will have within other states. and mind you, this is not really an issue involving google and amazon, the company palance here. uh, 5 headed by peter t o is a supporter of the former president. trump is a company that you've been using. many of its military project has been using prediction software with other states project. nimbus is at least, you know, as i mentioned earlier, it's quite notable for it's lack of transparency, right? so we don't really know if, you know,
8:24 am
sort of equivalence of this are happening with this particular set of partnerships or all data interoperability for all cloud computing. for other, for and state, but certainly one imagine that that is something that could happen. court is happening around us as a final thought to you. all we now been in a world where the big tech is sending this kind of controversial technology to the highest bidder. in a very unregulated market space that even the government's a, a powerless to police and if so, what needs to be done? so yeah, as you alluded to, it's a much, much larger issue, almost everything in our lives. this turns into data that data is being harvested by private corporations. it can be bought and sold, it was bought and sold in the case of examples like cambridge analytic a. so we know that basically our data, these ways of call of, of mont, of fonts to find different aspects of our lives are being bought and sold in transacted and large. they are being transacted in relation to big tech platforms. we also know in the space, we're talking about a very limited set of actors,
8:25 am
something of an oligopoly, both in the us and china, just a few actors that are using our data without compensating us, potentially to, for all sorts of ames, whether they're advertising oriented names or in this case, protect potential surveillance, assassination types of am. so what really needs to be done is every single corporate driven technology must be regulated to ensure that it's audited, that there is disclosure, and that we are very clear about what data versus being used by him and for what purposes and the rights are, which means the people according to be, and there's plenty of ways for big tech companies to continue to be the wealthiest companies in the whole world and in the history of the world. while still maintaining our rights are of our own data because they're expressive our own lives as people remish front of us on when a good to get your thoughts and you are now, is that right? much? thank you very much for talking to us. thank you. appreciate it. now, the university of southern california has cancelled a traditional speech to graduating student spots,
8:26 am
top rated scholar citing security risks because they've come and she posted on social media about israel for the top student known as a valid victorian is as not thomas. and she's graduating with a major and by medical engineering and a minor in resistance to genocide. some students say that universities using security as an excuse to block freedom of speech. a sheet embodies what it means to be allotted towards the us needs and to take that away from or at least the honor that comes attached to it is extremely disappointing because this is her moment to enjoy this as her graduation for the price of the united states profit mom was here last year with security issues. i just think placing her and kind of searching her off the gauge like it's a security issue. obviously there's now a lot of pushback coming from students, including myself because they are silencing a brown who job the woman's voice. first generation stem from speaking at arguments . when, when she rightfully, or in that position,
8:27 am
she should speak because there was no inkling of her causing any harm. and she's talking about issues that are important to not only are university and to students, but to the world. the not ukraine's president assigned a new been a treat recruitment lo it saying that boosting tooth numbers has come onto how shortages for the war against russia. for legislation increases payments to volunteers, as well as adding new penalties for draft dodging for the presidency. lensky has blamed is western allies for the impact of reason to russian attacks on energy infrastructure across the country. saying his ministry was unable to shoot themselves because they run out of ammunition. a nice can choose, we run out of old messiahs that defended to pay a lot. when someone says that i lies, conk, provide us with the so that weapon, or the company in ukraine with visual that force,
8:28 am
because that would be perceived as if you credit is engaging nato in the war. well, after yesterday's attack, i want to ask you a question. is israel positive nato or not? is the answer is right, is not a nato country. the nato allies, including nato countries, that being defending israel, they showed the wrong in forces. the israel was not alone. and this is a lesson, this is a response to anyone on any continent who says you need to be very careful when assisting ukraine, so that you don't engage nato countries in the will not the indian security forces that killed at least 10 to 9 miles rebels during a fist gun bottle in the central state of chalk, cisco 3 senior come on is of the band come in, his spots you have india suspected to be among those killed. it comes to that is before the starts of elections and which prime minister under, under moody, is seeking a 3rd time in the as in tier administer, i'm, it show has bound to eliminate miles conservancy from the region. if most of it is re elected most formally that unconsciously, which he has been moved from prison to house arrest, the army government said it's
