10:03 am
commence on ongoing operational efforts and investigations being made in order to ensure the safety of the victims. and also the eye witnesses. scott's health ministry to now does not provide any further details about such investigations of being made and things like that. one is being changed from a medical stuff across the guns as trip. now i bought these ready for a minister benjamin. it's in. yeah. who has said that the ice ccs actions will not fix on the is very policy on the ground as they are trying to guarantee the full protection for the is very soon just under the leadership of the is very prime minister benjamin netanyahu. and it's worth mentioning back that we currently remember that those 2 hospitals have time to be military bases, as a doses on hundreds of bodies have been recovered from both hospitals. after that gets very what the trouble from such areas leaving behind and raising alarms regarding potential genocide, the acts being committed in such areas. meanwhile,
10:04 am
all right, cuz i've been more as riley or, and drone attacks coming, palestinians in the, the site up camp. and also in gaza. city yes, that's silly, right to the there was never any kind of let's hop in strikes. no, an aunt terry bombardments by the is what you're talking to you not 3 units. we have 70 bucks in the past hour. we've been recruiting more tax and roughly district as a result, trolanda has been hated the western side of the city with no casualties till now have been reported, but seemingly to situation sounds critically deteriorating in the most. oh, as overnight strikes hot talking to a residential compound that destroyed 7 houses. that sounds to be at directly mc as the medical uh it'd be the guns and hills ministry did not report on any casualties being arriving to its hospitals in the notes of this trip. witnesses
10:05 am
have been confirming that they have been subjected to protestants off to the bottom and in the most of us are rock truck is ready for instance, have been using intensively within the past couple of days admitted to quite up to drums that's releasing sounds of babies women holding for help and ongoing suppressive barnett come on, boost residential, are still trapped on the intense bombing campaign in the newest abundance of roger if you do tabs and also in areas not a jason to see a ton of these regulations in the area that is very close to mid serene junction where they have recently establishing military chic points on military times. that could be a sense of the potential military attacks. of course, this trip dark, i was him. thank you very much for bring us up to date to with all the latest happenings, aaron gauze that reporting to this from rafa us and other developments the you and stop court is set to roll on a request for germany to hold military a,
10:06 am
to israel. the case was followed by nicaragua, which argues that violin is failing to prevent genocide or uphold international humanitarian law. it's the latest case involving israel before the international force of justice. south africa approach, the court in december, choosing israel of committing genocide. and then the u. s. has found 5 is writing minutes for you and is responsible for gross human rights violations in the occupied westbank. this is the 1st time washington has reached such a conclusion. now these incidents took place before the war on gaza in october. despite the findings, the state department said the units have not been sanctioned as equal height and explains. for weeks we've been waiting for the us state department to announce the results of its investigation into whether certain units and israel's defense forces committed gross violations of human rights. the reason is the suckers secretary of state himself. and to me, blinking said earlier this month that he had made the determination. now this is
10:07 am
important because if it is found that these certain units violated human rights, there's loss inside the united states. it says, no, us military aid can go to those units. well, we now know it's unlikely to happen. 4 of these units have effectively remediated these violations, which is what we expect partners to do. it is consistent with what we expect all countries whom would we have a security relationship? the deputy spokesman here at the state department was repeatedly pressed on this issue and he just simply wouldn't answer the questions such as what exactly were the gross violations of human rights? what units were involved? exactly. how do israel remediate the situation and what kind of information israel provided? again, you simply wouldn't say, particle hang l g 0 at the state department. let's go to stephanie co joining us now from occupied easters. and so we've known for at least
10:08 am
a couple of days now that washington is considering the in position of sanctions on this is riley military battalion accused of abuses against palestinians. tell us more about this military unit and their alleged activities a yes, this came out last week. the next uh, using the baton. yeah. and they are an older orthodox battalion, a lot of the soldiers there actually live in the occupied west bank. so last week when we covered it, the americans, it said that they would be sanctioning this particular unit. this unit was moved out of the west bank in 2022. when the incident happened, one of the incidents i believe to be part of the charges is that they killed the 78 year old palestinian american jewel citizen. they found him guide to him and left him to die and sub freezing temperatures in the occupied west. back now you were mentioning there are 4 other battalions. they haven't been named,
10:09 am
but you were talking about, you heard patty, they're questioning what allegations this will came to light with an investigation . an article pro probably call an american body just a couple of weeks ago. they have a few of the allegations including the 78 year old kind of thing, the americans i mentioned, but they also accused the border please. this is not part of the army, but it is part of the security forces saying extrajudicial cummings by the border police. and then one other allegation they mention, these are the only 3 that didn't the interrogators tortured and raped a teenager accused of throwing more the tub caulked out. so the bigger picture is this. you heard there from patty. they believe that 4 of us have remediation, meaning they're now fine and they will continue to receive military. a. vanessa who does the time in last week wasn't going to receive military. now they've given israel more time to look into it. so why? because of the massive backslash at the time if you have israel's biggest allies,
10:10 am
biggest supplier admitted to a actually recognizing in a way that it security forces are responsible for gross human rights violations against the policy. it's something that the palestinians will tell you, happens on a daily basis. there's been mounts and by flashes when he prime minister are saying that he would fight any sense since personally you have the minister of defense. you. i'd really across the political spectrum because you simply do not criticized the army in israel. so i think significantly start telling me that this is now being highlighted that the american recommendations is that some of you should be shocked in. but interesting as you heard from party, is that you effective date, uh, blink. and had been sitting on this report since december. and so far, really nothing has been done about it. thank you very much. stephanie deca. it's not bringing so long. shake is the founder of the piece building organization, the shepherds and the former un official. and it's important to bear in mind that
10:11 am
there's been a long running history of violence against palestinians and the occupied west bank . but this has seen up a shot big situation since october. the, the involvement of this particular battalion proceeds october and it seems as though washington is going in the direction of no imposing sanctions. as far as we know, whether it's positive of putting that we've seen with united states and the by the ministration have provided cover and made excuses for the actions of 5 minutes and then yeah, it is government. and those are the is rarely ami um, on the ground that cannot hold. the rules of closing in international law has to be administered. otherwise, we will see the event of typically joe biden, but also western countries effectively cannibalizing international law and the rules based international order which they themselves sets up after the
10:12 am
horrors of the 2nd world will tell me, has not already happened, as well as yes, of course we have ample evidence and those who have committed those grave violations of international humanitarian law. whether they are have us or other palestinian groups, but also these riley army where they have been disproportionate from the stats in terms of their operations. but of course, as you said, this has happened for a very long time. this cannot continue and you know, the rest of the world. as i go through diplomatic offices and capitals around the world that everyone knows that there is a, there is now a grace situation. and it's probably, again, the binding administration coming back to your original question. which can turn us away from, from where we all right. and in terms of the grey situation,
10:13 am
it seems as though we are seeing countries in the developing world, in the global south, but a taking measures to try and push back against it. we've just mentioning that nicaragua had initiated proceedings against germany. this is back in march that we're going to see some progress on that today. accusing filing of facilitating genocide and gauze that by providing support to israel. how important is this case? not just for garza, but for any state that manufacturers and supplies weapons that ultimately used to commit violations of international humanitarian law. which should be of great concern to belle. it should be a grave concern to the german chancery because it's something which i believe is a part of attacking which will continue to see what we've seen outside of africa. originally initiate the the case in the i, c, j against israel. and now we see the nicaragua and the global south, which we need as part of the alliance and the changing to
10:14 am
a politics of the globe is no longer accepting that. and it is a reason why i think europe in capitals and washington again have to think really hard about their actions, including the supply of weaponry. and today's riley, i mean, offensive weaponry and which is now also reflected in the campuses of universities that i myself seen in paris or in washington. and, but i suppose in recognizing that these crimes are taking place, given washington's incredible financial and military support. israel that, that then they would be some sort of recognition that they to compress it. and what is happening a while. it was inside caitlin's house, but this is the case being made by americans. this is the case being made by germans or other europeans, and it's being made by those young people, particularly in the united states who do matter. we have
10:15 am
a 1968 moment in my view thing on right now. and you remember what happened in 1968 . the democratic convention was held in chicago in august. well, it's going to happen again this year in 1960 this year in 2024. and if this war does not stop, if we don't then start to rebuild gaza and allow the population to to be able to go back to their homes. as well as to hold accountable. those who have the parts of the great violations of international matter law, which have taken place. then i fear that president biden is going to meet the same fate. and that's uh, the democrats did then in 1968 when they lost the election. and then in terms of the significance of what is happening, you mentioned the student prototypes, and perhaps something we've not seen before is that we now see teachers and
10:16 am
professors that are prepared to get involved who was facing disciplinary action. and in some cases, sacrificing the reputations and careers in order to take us down does not surprise you. not entirely. no. i think it's something we've seen before. but it's the weight of evidence. of course, we've seen it in the past in terms of other protest movements. i, myself was leading the anti apartheid group in my university in the 199-2000. but uh, but, you know, it's, it's a particularly high can situation. now. i think back to when i used to visit professor ed woodside in columbia university, when i was working for the you. and when i was actually working for the un, released piece on the boy. and he always said that you cannot hold truth back. and that is what we're saying now. so long share. thank you very much. thank you.
10:17 am
well, us centers, i don't see blinking is in the region. he's heading to jordan and israel list. and the latest diplomatic push for a ceasefire talks to begin again. and on gaza now this follows meetings, regional leaders and saudi arabia. on monday, this has been can 7th visits to them, at least since the war began. he's saying that there is a new proposal that has been put time us. and of course, he's urging the group to accept his passion, well, by reports on this now us secretary of state and it blinking, hoping for moves and just the between how may i send these? well, the good to respond stored ceasefire tools. he says how math should accept and use variety proposal. how much has before the proposal that is extraordinarily, extraordinarily generous on the part of israel. and in this moment, the only thing standing between the people of guys and a cease fire is the most. so they have to decide and they have to decide quickly
10:18 am
how much dismisses accusations it's delaying seized by a deal. the group that controls gauze blames these by the prime minister for putting his own political survival ahead of a last thing agreement, and mediators, katasha and egypt. continuing to explore chances for a new one, plus, becoming increasingly frustrated. cutoffs. prime minister administer the following up as says, the biggest obstacle to lasting peace is the failure of the international community to solve the policy. and these by the conflict a lot of efforts must be exhausted to sort out the military escalation. for the sake of all countries in that region, we need to bring peace to the middle east. the international community has failed to find a solution to the palestinian cause. thus we now see the bloodshed everywhere and every day and the gases starting us officials hopping trying to build consensus
10:19 am
for a post world, gaza. they initially said they want to see a new policy a forward to take over. i, when president mode, i bass pointed and you a prime minister, how much rejected the move as a be trial. and there's another reason why the us, once a deal soon, the americans believe a long term political solution to the policy and is riley conflict. could encourage saudi arabia and many out of nations to establish diplomatic ties with, as well as, while by a 0 university students teach as an active, as in the us have been defined authorities to protest against the war and gaza and to the colleges. financial links to israel. this is the scene of the university of texas in austin on monday, a wed, dozens of people were arrested. nearly a 1000 protests have been detained at campuses, country wide in 2 weeks of demonstrations. many angry of what they see is
10:20 am
a heavy handed response by police and college administrators. i did. your counselor has moved from that demonstration in austin. or it has been it makes sure the here on the you t austin campus. and it's monday morning as a sign the stage by faculty in opposition to the way you t austin and ministration has to test has now run into a conflict or seen approach to my left. these are members of the youtube community or students, summer faculty members. reason they're holding umbrella to go there with pepper spray. show you the other side. what, what i'm seeing here to my rights are the police officers, are now barricading against these protesters. what they're protesting behind them is a place where the previously rested processors and 43 people who were
10:21 am
part of an initial cabinet that began this afternoon with people setting up wandering around it and opposition and refusing to disperse at the university harder. moments tend to read, we saw this police presence just stand upon those protesters, then began arresting them one by one, dragging them away from the line to the ground where they had taken it and in hand taking them away. then just as we saw, that sometimes the ending more members of the us showed they were the last it
10:22 am
gives me the english. tell me what is good about the moment that made you want to be here in the front line. my grandma and grandpa flood policy 9 and 1948. my mom, the 1967 and the struggle are more than 75 years to students are never on the wrong side of history with using regression. because who is peacefully protesting. it was 30000 people died. we used to be on the right side of history. no one should suffer the way to call since that's covered. what do you think of the way that the police have responded? i mean, the police responded the same way in vietnam. they responded the same way during the civil rights movement. they only know aggression against people, hotels. so this is honestly very possibly good. thank you very much. i appreciate your time. and we've been hearing the similar comments throughout the day. some protesters there with additional ones who came as part of the ground by the 10.
10:23 am
the showed up here, really motivated by what they saw from testing in the forwarding from the university of texas and cancer. so those are the scenes in texas also columbia university. in new york, i started suspending student protest as who defined an ultimatum to leave their incontinence. they've been told to clear out by monday afternoon demonstrates is wanting to universities to withdraw their investments in companies with links to israel auditors to raise the percentage this update from the columbia university campus in new york. hundreds and hundreds of here in columbia university. they're demanding an end to the general side that they say it's happening in guys, either a. so demand that the columbia university stops investing in companies that are
10:24 am
profiting from the war in guys, or you can see them right marching in the university. this is an emergency meeting because the students that are holding at a time man here say that they've been handing over a paper where they have identified themselves and they leave the campus for several days. now students have been can thing right here in the center of 10 posts. they're demanding, as i said before, a ceasefire in garza and in to the war. they're also demanding that so this to diversity halls, this investment in companies that profit on the war also. so university, the president of columbia university says that they're trying to resolve the ongoing conflict peacefully. they say that they want to waste your freedom of speech while at the same time, allowing students in this university to feel safe. however, people here are saying that these are peaceful protests that they want to shed light on the suffering that is happening in gaza right now. what they're demanding
10:25 am
is an end to the killing. i'm into the displacement. i'm in hunger that is happening in gaza right now. very simple, i just see that new york or u. s. police rested at dozens of students at yale university in new haven, connecticut, where a new encampment was set up on sunday. christian salumi reports on that. the university students have now set up their 2nd encampment. the 1st one was done and solidarity with columbia university students, but was taken down after just 3 days when police came in and arrested 44 students in the process. nevertheless, the students came back on sunday, setting up another in cameron about 40 tenths or on the scene. i spoke to one of the student protesters earlier about why they came back. the fact of the matter is your university never met our demands. our demands have not changed, they are disclosed. uh, financial investments are best from our community fracturing and the profiting off
10:26 am
of the dividing casa, enter, reinvest, and then you have a community in education and food and affordable housing. and our demands remain steadfast. you may have come at a rest of the students and community members, but what they did, what they failed to do with me are demands. so we're back. they've already said that they will not the best from is really weapons manufacturers or any weapons manufacturers that are supplying these rallies. are there talks ongoing? yes, we're very um, you know, uh we're very interested in and a trying to open channels with negotiations. a good faith with the university. we're obviously university obviously has been responding fairly aggressively and militant lead to peaceful student demonstration. but we're very steadfast. we're, you know, we're here to stay and we are committed to our demands. we recognize, we, i mean we've all been seeing life broadcast as the genocide that's happening in gaza. and until there's an end to yes complicity. and now we're,
10:27 am
we're going to continue mobilizing, we're going to continue speaking out soon after the students return to the campus in their tents, they received a letter hand delivered from the dean of the university warning them that they were violating school policies and also warning them that they were risking arrest and possibly suspension. if they remain christian salumi, i'll just hear a new haven, connecticut. the last slide for you on the program. we follow the search for the missing in kenya, where the death toll from widespread flooding continues to rise. i'm same bus for avi and i know who are in the jordan valley were posting in bed when community say attacks by israeli settlers or forcing them off land if they've lived on for generations the the
10:28 am
had lower their it's a divided picture weatherwise across europe. we've got some very width and windy weather moving across the west scenarios, keeping things launch the cool thanks to some weather front. but across the east look at that. we will clear skies with lots of sunshine and we'll see. temperature is picking up here over the next few days. but on tuesday, the west of the rain stretching all the way from the north west down to the south west. so britain on the island of island seeing those showers some heavier rain coming into spain and portugal ahead of that. another band of heavy rain stretches across the front and that will move its way towards easily as we go into the mid week. so some heavy falls to come here, we could see some flooding from that heavy rain. it is looking much dry. however, across the east for germany, for poland, lots of sunshine coming through here of your showers, creeping across the balkans as well as the black sea and to a kia. but it is looking mighty fine as we had for the north across the sky today, the and well temperatures will be coming down across the west particular for spain
10:29 am
and portugal. on wednesday, the heat will be building up for central areas and the east. if we look at bundling in germany, we bought lots of sunshine through. so if the say with some very high temperatures, that to weather update, the, the, the latest news as a boeing a military response. the situation we mean kind of nationwide with detailed coverage. it's only taking a few hours to turn the city streets into canals, rooms and isolated from around the world, showing by russian full season of leave and, and the surrounding countryside, causing fires like this in the forests virtually every day examining, being proactive. today's headlines. i wish i had word word to describe what setting
10:30 am
the agenda for tomorrow's discussions right now. if you're on campus talking about the site, you are being called anti semitic and a supporter of care international film makers and will cross journalist spring programs to enforce and inspired to options a way to in the immediate future climate crisis or planet revolutionary barnowski to 0 the, the the welcome back. reminder of the main stories now prosecutions for me to national criminal court, or fortunately, gathering testimony from hospital stuff in gaza. the discovery of mass graves on
10:31 am
the grounds of 2 medical facilities in recent weeks could provide evidence of war crimes. the u. s. has found 5 is rodney minute for you and is responsible for human rights violations in the occupied westbank. the incidents took place before this war on gauze, wisconsin. the state department says the units have not been sanctions, university students and teachers in the us to define a police crackdown and threats of suspension to continue protesting against israel's war on concepts. thousands of demonstrations was arrested at several campuses on monday. oh, and albany is occupations on the way in northern indonesia where a volcano has erupt, it again, mount rou, on and north. so the way, see sent a tower of ash more than 5 to one which is into the sky. forcing the closure of a nearby international airport volcano is interrupted several times in the past 2 weeks. so that's close to jessica jessica washington, who's in the, in the nation capital chicago. what are you hearing about this?
10:32 am
of the well, that's exactly right. number one has been processing frequently since around mid april, but it was the rupture. and this morning with an ash coal on more than 5000 meters, was sent into the sky. dark gray, almost black ash, sentences of sky as well as the balkan already agency. observing incandescent lava as well as volcanic lightning. it has been several eruptions, incense, but on a much smaller level. but the letter level remains at the highest. that is level 4 in each of these authorities wanting people to say at least 6 kilometers away from the vote. and the people in the communities, a positive population that a closer than that they've been evacuated. is that on the way? well, this is a situation that has been developing for weeks. so in terms of preparedness authorities are relatively for pets. so there was
10:33 am
a community that was living actually on the slopes of the volcano, and you can imagine they would have been in immediate danger. but in fact, they evacuated some weeks ago. and they all say what authorities are considering now is whether communities on a nearby island also need to evacuate. at this point, it is unclear whether they would need to evacuate to the, on the side of the island. authorities are considering that, but they do say that they are well equipped. there are no military vessels. they have enough logistics in terms of boston booth to distribute to people in need. and the situation appears to be under control for now. thank you very much. jessica washington little the latest from chicago to on that story. as well now to any other present within brutal who is a special cabinet meeting on tuesday. as heavy rains continues to lash, the country. government says the death toll from a month of flooding has reached at least a $169.00. in the east, the ravine collapsed into the town of river, causing it to bust its banks. thousands of people are displaced,
10:34 am
but there are many more missing. rescue is also searching for several people after a boat capsized, trying to cross a damn near the town of grist malcolm lab reports now from the last thing to them. it takes hours of searching the least to muddy, torn to find each body. the stairs are covered at the latest victims in flooding that's killed thousands of people here in kenya, and hundreds across east africa. it was too much for this woman when she discovered a cousin was one of them on sunday. people were trying to get to and from the town of teresa by boat ton of rivers busted banks nearby and submerged the main road. the stage didn't make it, several people are still missing. more than 20 of being rescued a life. they would take them to a nearby hospital. i mean the,
10:35 am
those who knew how to swim more like ha, i don't know how to swim. so i had to hold onto somebody who does. you were dragged by the water until you was stopped by a truck where i waited until i was rescued. this is the truck. it was the last vehicle to try and cross here on the road. and so didn't make it the floods of cost of transport and networks and displaced hundreds of thousands of people across the region. weeks of torrential rain for much of it in the highlands of central can you slow down to these hydro electric them as a feeling is reservoir minus. just say the levels about 2 meters above what is designed for wildly forces gushing into the flight channel. about 70 cubic meters, the 2nd and all of it is flowing into this kind of river down stream. it sweeps through the plains of east and kenya towards the indian ocean. hundreds of thousands of people live in towns and villages along its banks. the government
10:36 am
has said those are risk should move to higher ground. we are having a pep in the committee to be able to discuss form additional emissions that my government is going to take to make sure that the citizens who uh victims, full time of change to today uh somebody floods the supporting must lights out of looped after the rain in the highlands is still feeling the dams is more water on the way. now come web address, they're missing. get them. can you? well, let's go to a malcolm his location has i think changed because he won out in mendoza and is, is this the, the location malcolm where a boat capsized or a couple of casualties, but not anymore. i'm missing. tell us what's happening there. that's right, this is the place where the accident happened. people were trying to cross the
10:37 am
instead of the government, stuff them. but of course things like this and now being fun. this is the main road coming from nairobi, kenya is capital, which is about 350 kilometers way, and we're just a couple of kilometers. show us of the town of clarissa. this is one of 2 places where the swollen river of china has cut through the roads and made it impossible. now if we take a walk around here, we can just see quite how far this flood water has. uh, extended uh, now is, is uh, apart from the destruction of costs due to the homes and that we can see here, costing us the trunk bull rigs is a major problem for people. a lot of people who are struggling to make an income costs off from their livelihoods costs off from their loved ones. this is why people are willing to take a risk and across into school. but like one we saw in the story that now it's from this area heading down the street towards the coast, towards the indian ocean. the,
10:38 am
the, what's the impact to the funding is felts? because from here going down the river, it's all right and gets flats around slots a little. so the community is living on the river bank down here, a pool room communities, people sleeping and he lives talking, doing some farming on the flood plains at the river. and it's in this direction that we think west of the damage has been done. and very important point. you made an outcome about the effect of the floods on the infrastructure. if people are not able to get to what bills have they're not able to get important supplies, if supplies in the shops are running low or if people are panic, buying absolutely add in this of course makes prices go up. many things that people struggle to, to afford, at the best of times a now getting at getting more expensive. and then not to mention the cost of food supplies for the many communities. living further down the stream along the river banks whose the, whose food supplies the thumbs, the crops that they've grown,
10:39 am
decides the river many vo, uh, many of which would have been completely destroyed and not now, not just pushing up prices today, but not food supplies for months ahead for those roles community. so people are waiting to find out what kind of support they might get from the government at the moment the can you red cross as being very active in rescuing people who were stranded in providing some shelter. so those have been displaced, but the impact on people living down stream from here is going to be felt long off to the voices have receded. and the annual report yesterday that really some extraordinary pitches of a flooding that was heading down streams that affects communities that live on, along the route of these, these rivers. and just to be clear about the impact of this, malcolm gives us a sense of, of the numbers of people involved. and i mean it, it's affected every positive life, right, from infrastructure to health, food education we'd
10:40 am
say no, the road cuts off. we can take another look. we take a step of the, hey, i mean this, yeah, is just just one of the a several places where a key infrastructure being cuts off in other parts of the country by a ways power lines have been effected at schools. the government has announced there was a jew to open uh on the, on the this week of being delayed for one for the week. they said because of the risk and the impact of the flooding. and certainly for those schools which are on the water, they'll need at least a week to cost. see if the votes of receipts for does any possibility. then of course of them doing the required work to be able to, to reopen. but regarding the numbers which you asked about the mine, and then we understand that that the number of people who have died in the flooding hearing can you, in recent weeks, is now a 116 avenue. just speaking to red cross worker over here who's trying to track
10:41 am

10:47 am
latest legislative elections is employed by president sonya seem bay to tighten his family's long hold on power in our country elections and lots throughout. all that not fair because all the institution involved in the process of the election, completely controlled by the government and the results of probably created by the government also. so election is just uh, is it pretty to let's or the intellectual community? no, that's all eh, we are organizing election the from time to time, but it's not it democracy for the last 61 years, the sing bay family has ruled over to ago. and the old regime with a new constitution voted in, in parliament, days before elections on monday. the text has now been made public that seem, be, it has not spoken publicly about the change to the constitution,
10:48 am
but his supporters say it provides more stability in greater accounts ability from the head of state and the but then what is the issue is not whether we're a parliamentary or presidential regime. the people want to know who will help put food on the table. of critics say it will allow nursing be to stay in power in. definitely because the president would be chosen not by the people for the m p. 's of running in this parliamentary election. unlike in 2018, the opposition did not boycott these elections, but it seems that people did out of the 4000000 to release, illegible to vote. few came out to cast their votes. those who did were mostly new 1st time voters, challenging the old, the regime, and then most boss. but this i would have wanted to choose my precedence. i feel like the people should have a say own who runs the country. i'm unhappy with the change of the end of the presidential system. the accounting has started without the presence of many international observers or the foreign media both banned from covering the vote.
10:49 am
critics of the regime say this election is another blow to democracy, serving itself and not the people. nicholas hawk alger 0. and all the confrontation has taken place between a chinese and philippine vessels and disputed waters in the south china sea. the incident took place near a contested reef during the mission to resupply filipino fishermen, the philippines, close cons, as a chinese vessel used which account and on 2 of its boats. so they took in a series of maritime confrontations between the 2 countries on it below joins us live now from manila, any reaction to this of the yeah, maria and developing coast guard says in the area of this car partial in the south china sea earlier today we're not expelled by the chinese coast guard. the philippine coast guard statement said that in fact,
10:50 am
after getting water cannon by chinese coast guard vessels, the 2 barrels, one fishery special and one philippine coast start best. so we're able to stand their ground and continue to patrol the area. so this is also kind of a going into an information warfare here where one side comes out with a statement. and the other side also comes out with a statement after each confrontation, this time around the philippine coast guard says that that the chinese side also put up a floating barrier in the area near the entrance of the scar for a show effectively restricting filipinos from entering the area and this is maybe why china is saying that it has expelled these, but looking government vessels from this car bar show, are you how has this cooperation agreement involving the philippines and the united states? change the dynamic in the south china sea and perhaps foot china and much more and

10:52 am
a credit for credible defense capability with the help of its allies. and it also needs its allies to side with them in its territorial dispute with china. it's, it's position of course, is that these areas of the south china sea are within its exclusive economic zone in the south china sea. and this is what the united states and france and other allies have also said. and these allies of also said that they're supporting the philippines because there are support supporting freedom of navigation in this area . but of course this doesn't sit well with china area. thank you very much. find to be loud in manila palestinian value and say that being forced out of the homes in the jordan valley. is there any secular attacks and ami raids on remote communities of intensified since israel launched as war on concept heard is are appealing for international intervention to protect the centuries old way of living? i was you, there is a bus for avi has moved from an hoa and the occupied westbank of
