7:05 am
. this should be a lesson for the world to stand up in the face of this genocide taking place now engaged in this occupation that are the for decades. progress are doing is all under the watchful eyes of the leaks, there are campus security who have already once tried to shut down this protest area. and then there's new york police departments. we have set up a light coal on either end of this process period. and that is so they can light the place up at night if they need to. and sweep the students out with the students . say they're here to stay john, hindrance l g 0 new york, i'll just here is alan fish. it is at the george washington university in the us capital, where students, so at least 8 universities have joined a full se a for the tests. so remember that this all started on thursday when students multiply university yard and you can see the hard quarter protest. there's probably about that does we are still in the courtyard. they are in their tents. they're not moving anywhere. so and they've been near since thursday. the university
7:06 am
authorities have put the railings across the courtyard to restrict them spreading any farther. but as that protest is gotten smaller, the protest on the street has become much bigger. in fact, there's a growing air of permanency to this. not only do we have tents where people can eat, and we've had lots of local businesses to eating food, to the people here. more and more people are setting up tents because they intend to spend the night. yeah. now there's no saying that the students are going to leave to meet the demands, very clear to the university authorities at each school. and those are going to 8 or 9 of them represented to you have got slightly different demands. but the key points are they want the universities to dive based, any interests they have, and it's really businesses, they want to cut academic ties with israel as well. and they want to make sure that the protests leaders will not face part of that action. we know at george washington university, 7 of those who were involved in the protests in thursday while they have been
7:07 am
suspended and that means they could lose their student housing possibility. they won't graduate as well, and all the credits for the last 10 will be white codes. so they're asking for a complete i'm this the as well. and the intention of the students is to stay here to say this is the for the doing cnn. anytime soon. all is for sure, i'll just see it up at george washington university in washington, dc. i'm for level has this update from the university of north carolina a chapel hill in this process just now? well, i'm truly on the way we are told by the organizers there was somebody in the region of 500 people here. i can say. so if you're the best of the students from this campus, from other universities, local activists table, they've just seen the social media post. i wanted to come here to show this on a darzy. i'm the support for the people of garza. i'm the demands from the university students have a very clear number one. they want the university 5 best from products that support
7:08 am
israel. number 2, they want to pull transparency about any investments that relates to israel. now the university is allowing these people to be here. it's like someone to be there for several days. if you look over that, you can see where they've been sleeping. they are allowed to sleep on the restrict provide so they do not erect any time since, so they will be there sleeping all throughout the night. i may be to help all throughout the tides, although i am told by some of the organizers of this protest that the university is trying other methods to get them out. for example, they have locked the doors to a number of these buildings, so nobody can use the restroom. also, they have stopped taking the trash away, so the students and outside of the area so that it doesn't start to smell. and number 3, they say they've been told by the universe and say that the sprinklers will be turned on at midnight. so they proactively put book kids over the spring close to stop them being french, but they say they don't care about audio thought this isn't watchable about the why the course. they will stay it for as long as it takes at the moment. there is no
7:09 am
police presence. there are some purpose officer station on the outside of the area, just keeping an eye on things. but at the moment, this is a very, i repeat the process, a lot process, but a peaceful protest fil about. let's just say era. chapel hill, north carolina. well, dozens of people who are arrested junior, processed in support of the palace to the ends at washington university. on saturday evening. one of them was dr. joe stein a presidential candidate with a green party. and this is us selection. she says, criticism of israel is often incorrectly described as being unto submitted. i am a person of jewish background. myself that was raised very much, you know, after the holocaust and having a grand parents who were refugees from anti semitism and pogroms themselves. you know, i was raised very much within that, tried within that tradition, but that tradition was also fed to genocide should happen to know one. and unfortunately, you know zionism is not judaism and zionism has been controversial within the
7:10 am
jewish community. in fact, since its origins in the 18 hundreds and that the controversy continues today, and the consequences of zionism were basically, people came in just came in refugees who then said this land is ours. and we are ethnically cleansing this land. that's not ok. you know, it's fine for people to be refugees, but then to take over the land and to displace and use violence against the people who are there. you know that this problem, this crisis did not start on october 7th, october 7th, was just the latest phase of you know, violence that was perpetrated mostly by israel against the palestinians, starting back at the knock, but an before in fact, certainly 75 years in advance in advance of that and unfortunately, jews, and i know myself because i was raised as part of that have been taught a certain version of history which is not quite accurate. and as more and more historical documents have come to light, it's, you know,
7:11 am
it's very clear that there have been a, there's been, you know, an outrage is tradition of violence against palestinians from the get go. so zionism is something that needs to be defeated and being anti zionist is not the same as being anti semitic. well, in the latest round of diplomatic talks, the us president joe biden and his ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu spoke on the phone. they said to discuss the possibility of an immediate cease fire, which would be in conjunction with the release of captives held him guns that the 2 men also do as cost an increase in the delivery of a deposit. but your effective state, anthony, blinking, meanwhile, has arrived and saudi arabia is also expected to travel to israel and onto jordan. and on monday, how much delegation is due in egypt and capital to discuss the spot proposal handed to them by mediators from castle and egypt. both countries have played a key role in efforts to secure these 5 between israel and come us well run the q
7:12 am
rays from the american university of bay road. he says, the bite and administration is concerned that its support for israel will impact the hopes of re election and the 2020 for us presidential election. what's fascinating, here's the involvement of the 3rd party which of these united states. this is a war between the united states and israel on one side and her mouth and some other groups on the post and inside. the united states is really worried about many things they were terrified of. the iranian is rarely exchange of fire. a weapon, you know, attacks between them, even though they were both controlled. they were terrified of a wider war in the region. what the impact of the some horrid flows investment on global trade re catastrophe. the united states government, led by the democrats and biden, are terrified of the impact of this war on their election prospects in november of its fall. yesterday they showed that 81 percent of young people, all people,
7:13 am
not just democrats, 81 percent of americans between the ages of 18 and 34 thinks of the war as being badly managed them. they disapprove of the way the was going on. american support for this is a huge, huge thing for american politicians. and they're also finding that they're not being isolated around the world because you can't isolate beneficial strong, but they don't have the same cloud that they, that they use to. people are looking at the china to rush up to in the, to the bridge to other people for strategic relationships as well as americans. so that's huge. fear in the us, like holland bug is from a to the international, lots of peace group which attempts to bring together jews and arabs is where it is and palestinians and dialogue. this is what he thinks about the conflict and god. my name is eliza calendar and i am 21 years old. i'm a student here at the university of texas at austin and i'm majoring in jewish
7:14 am
studies. government and middle east studies. my father's side is austin ozzy jewish, and my mother's side has the support of jewish 100 heritage. i'm a very proud you in most jewish education when it comes to palestinians, they're not told about 1948. so you're not told about the not, but um we typically told um, sometimes outright rates of things and not errands and palestinians. i began in the process of unpacking a lot of what i was told and hebrew school, but also engaging with palestinians and a conclusion. i came to is that policy and culture is more similar to my culture and any other culture in the world. find the president and founder of athena international work. he's a t not combined the keyboard, a t, t for future with the arabic suffix. now for our and when he put those 2 together means our future, we really just try to promote open dialogue on college campuses to get to know the quote unquote of for you. and i'm leaving you to begin to humanize the other. i think that's more important now than ever. i believe that the actions in gaza do
7:15 am
constituted genocide. there are many corporations that are profit tearing from what is happening in gaza. specifically, american corporations like boeing, like lockheed martin. and these are the corporations that needs to be called out for profit tearing from the death and destruction of the palestinian people. and because students took their 1st amendment civil liberties at the university to the forefront, they were repressed. i was injured when one of the state troopers charged with the horse and i was subsequently pushed to the ground. i was in shock when that speaking out on behalf of the palestinian people is not inherently anti semitic. i've personally dealt with a lot of accusations that i am either a self hating you and even worse, somebody called me a capital, which is a jew who sell the fellow jews to the nazis all for the stances i've taken for my policy and brothers and sisters and that's personally um, very hurtful to me. i lost family in the whole of costs, but it doesn't stop me. i understand what i'm doing. it's just i,

7:17 am
fantasy. their influence spreads beyond into the rest society, right up into was something iraq as well, maybe in the levant and stephanie, there are a few in central to you if you took you that's monday, tuesday season. even biggest spend all the, the, like years in the dfcs. i mean, the potential flash something in montgomery is already been realized once or twice in the last week or so could come back. and this looks that he went to as well, lebanon, syria, down to what's jordan as well. yep. big thunderstorms, flash drives and potentially south of all this where we have seen flooding. can you dental's times in the, the full cost isn't quite as bad. they're all big thunder storms around 9 robie navy, bit for the know if i can see if you a few times for the quite a speak to me as i did before, where you might want the ride anywhere in southern africa. there is precious vessel, but temperatures for some are on the way up of the
7:18 am
indonesia is building a new capital city. deep in the jungles of borneo, the 1st part of the original open our boss to an issue. but not everyone supports the idea in the i get that someone would definitely have. we see this as an authoritarian decision. $1.00 oh, $1.00 east where deals indonesia using a megacity on out to 0. hearing the fact, the more fossil fuels we burn the hot or the planet, we're forcing from the action age workers worked directly targeted. i'll just say it was teams across the world. bring you closer to the heart of the story. the . the welcome back. you're watching out just a right quick reminder about top stories here. this at least 25 of us demands have been killed by as many aspects of cost concepts. in the last few hours,
7:19 am
at least 9 members of the same family were killed in a surprise. on the home in a rough hold on 1500000 displaced palestinians, a congress sheltering in the cities in the united states. they've been getting 900 arrests nationwide students protest has continued to for mom and the end of his route for 1000 demonstrators. according to the universities to comp time as well, seeking an end to us ministry for the country. now thousands of schools across spots of asia have temporarily shut down due to a searing heat wave authorities in the philippines suspended process for further 3 days. after announcing school closures last week, public health warnings, i've also been issued for cost to say the on usually hot weather in the philippines is expected to last until mid may off in the capitol many la. so record high temperatures were bonded below. joining us live now from the philippine capital barnaby. some odd shape in may are usually the hottest months in the philippines. but how much worse is it this year and why?
7:20 am
i think so bad. well there in the philippines is a tropical country, so it is hot here all throughout the year. but you're right. the months of march, april in may are the hottest, but it's unusually hot these months this year. and i should know because i grew up here and when i was growing up temperatures from the low thirty's to mid thirty's, that's normal for these months. but during the last few weeks, so we've been experiencing here our temperatures in the high thirty's. and as you mentioned yesterday, record sheets at 38.8 degrees celsius, here in the philippine capital manila. and that's just the surface temperature. we should also be talking about the heat index because this is actually the heat that we are feeling in our body. so yesterday, when it was 38.8 degrees celsius, the heat index was actually at 45 degrees celsius. and in the town, north of manila, the heat index actually peaked at $53.00 degrees celsius. so you can just imagine
7:21 am
how hot that is and just to for the illustrate, there's a dam over there. and in the northern phillip base, it has dried up so much that a, some bridge town has resurfaced and i bought a be there's been much talk about how schools and students have been affected by the heat. but how is everyone else coping then? yeah, so this heat wave has really affected all walks of life here in the philippines, but the most dramatic impact has been on the age education sector. so right now i'm standing in the middle of a public school ground and you can see right behind me the school ground is empty, the classrooms are empty because is just the heat is just too unbearable for students. so each classroom is about $35.00 to $40.00 students on a normal day with no air conditioning and just a few electric fans. and they say the desk just unbearable where the students are being switched to the online mode of learning. but it's not just the education
7:22 am
sector, millions of filipino labor or as workers, employees who have to commute everything to work. they're also affected. now the government has issued guidelines for employers to follow. these are just guidelines and not, not the enforceable by law, but the government is encouraging employers to implement flexible hours a work from home set up and also to let their employees where protective gear and temperature adaptable. so they all right to barnaby the, they live for us and then in the bottom you thank you. now. tornado has struck the southern chinese city of gong. jo, kidding. 5 people. 33. others were injured when the twist of london mid afternoon on saturday. more than a $145.00 trip buildings were damaged, a 2nd tony to hit another district later in the day, but not june is on the institute for public and environmental affairs in beijing. he says, extreme weather events are becoming more common around the world. the statistics
7:23 am
show that they are setting increasing frequency, all 5 of extreme heavy rain full in china, just like the many other parts of the word since 1916. so it's a, it's a, it's going up and down, and then, but to color they, in the, in this region and this region, this year, suffered from the earliest have, uh, you know, a record breaking or the flooding uh, from the beginning of this month. and then uh, you know, before this tornado the pro, right, uh, the wrong, don't you know, the problem is of going to have suffered to run a very heavy brain. and we'd say treat or a warning, a warning about why don't seeing 100 years of flooding and it's causing a lot of damage and then some casualties already. so this is uh, uh,
7:24 am
uh, a, uh, a new challenge that, uh, that we have to, to do with, uh, and china is uh, trying to, to bute strengths that are already ordering system and you know, but with better metro, logical. uh. so what cast capacity and also emergency response emergency response capability is being stressed out over the long run this cities and old need to be designed and plans with higher standards of the slide discharge and, and what the lobby prevention terms and the as prime minister casem module lee was wanting that the heavy rains, which i've led to widespread, deadly flooding a set to continue at least a 155 people have been killed while many a quarter of a 1000000 have been displaced. townsend is one of several countries across the east africa dealing with the impact of the el nino where the past with to
7:25 am
sedan now where there has been sporadic fighting in l. sasha comes off to the united nations security council express the concern that sedans power, ministry, rapids support forces would attack. while the city is the last stronghold of the army in the west and off for region, at least $21.00 communities have been hit in the area since march. and the number of civilians displaced by fighting and l. sasha has grown to 800000 in recent months. the rapids support forces to control the full of the state capitals. last year. i'll just say it was he the mobile reports on the capital cost. if the reason why the united nations security council and other agencies, nations and the united nations secretary general as they are focusing on m slash it is because it's the city that's many people from other parts of dar for displaced to when their cities fell under the control also be permitted to rapid support
7:26 am
forces. the number of displaced people went from 300002 over 800000 in recent months as a result of the iris i've taken over of the cities in the therefore region. the concern is that these tribes the tribes that are right now in fashion, our tribes that have been historically targeted by the permanent 3 are a separate since the size of it are 4 in 2003. so they are fears that if they are assess pulse attacking the city, then those tribes will be targeted just as the ethnic must certainly try. bored target sits in the west are 4 in the city of june. and now that's where the you and said between 10 to 15000 people were killed in the space of weeks by the parent military rapids support forces i'm allied diminishes. so the concern is that especially would become what has been described as a killed box, and they will be a mastercard, where they are assessed and their allies, melisha will target people based on their ethnicity. now uh there's been calls for a ceasefire and for the turing parties to return to talk before uh,
7:27 am
the rest of attacks and pressure. but so far, the 2 sides are, you get to heat through those calls and announce that they will be reviewing negotiations and decide to city of kid that between the, between them mediated by saudi arabia and the united states. so while the 2 sites are, you get to return to negotiating table or for to agree to any ceasefire. they all concerns that once the recept attacks those trap in the safety of especially the ethnic um uh for or is of our people who have been historically targeted by the our staff will be caught in the middle and that they will be a master car. and ethnic cleansing. so it has dismissed a report from a human rights group accusing the ministry of executing $223.00 symphony items, including more than 50 children. human rights watch says, looking at fast as on a carried out the cuttings in 2 northern villages back in february. the report says they were executed as part of the campaign against indians. choose the working with groups. obviously it was nicholas hawk has moved from san it goes capital baseless
7:28 am
and inaccurate. that's the words from a statement made by the government of regina foster following a damning report from human rights watch, which a q is, is sold years of war crimes and crimes against humanity. but the government statement says, soldiers are there not to kill but to protect civilians. human rights watch has said that they've spoken to eye witnesses to what they describe as a massacre that took place on the 25th of february in 2 villages, by the border of molly, the village of nadine and sore where those that survived. the massacre say that soldiers were in uniform shop indiscriminate lead towards women and children and adults. they were separated and 3 groups and then dumped into mass graves. when this report was made public last friday, the reaction from the government was to clamp down on any news organization or
7:29 am
media outlet that was reporting on it, including international use, media outlets. the reporters without border say that the government of regina paso is clumping down on descent and any voices that would give it different narrative to the one of the government. but this report comes at a time where there is increasing attacks from arm groups linked to al qaeda and ice . so over 2000000 people have been displaced. the government of regina for us to say they will investigate this latest accusation made by the human rights watch report. and it goes hawk algae, right? the car? no south africans for to and decades of a pond side music played a central role in running the freedom movement. cfo hot sticks. my boost as an artist who used his talents to encourage unity and equality. but he says this to a long way to go to meet him in co top with him. and so at the
7:30 am
level of a double cross in region all have to go and with an important track, simply titled, nelson, montana falls. it was written by musicians. people hot sticks my booster in support of the freedom fighter who had been imprisoned for 27 years. but you to us just natural as a musician you, you feel the importance, the contribution that one could make in writing a song like that. the song itself was a contribution a reading called for. no. so monday, let's release this is one of dozens of songs linked to solve africa's fight for freedom, which i know performed by musician.
