8:01 pm
fries honors old palestinian journalists for their reporting on israel's one gosh, the the we begin in the united states where police in new york city have removed students from a solidarity encampment at new york university. similar police operations were carried out at columbia university and all the way on the other side of the country . you see a la earlier this week with more than 2000 people, arrested around the country since the campus protests began. houses 0 correspondence or covering the story across the us. mike, hannah is a george washington university in the capital. first, let's go to christos salumi, who's outside a police station near new york university. so kristen, multiple student, dozens. you told us have been arrested as after police moved on the encampment that
8:02 pm
was at new york university. they. they moved on that early this morning. do we know what triggered it? the, the tray, let me know that police moved in early this morning. the new york police department is saying that they moved in at the request of n, y, you to clear that in cabinet that was set up. the 2nd one on the university campus that had been set up the 2nd round of arrest students that were there suspects that it has something to do with a student shamal dinner. that was plan that is planned for later today that about 2000 your students are instructed to attend its filled as the largest students jewish events in the nation. but we have no confirmation of that from the university. about 60 students in total have been arrested today. some of them at
8:03 pm
n y, u. others at the news school. we are outside police headquarters. that's behind me over to the side. over to the side of me, we have the legal support team for the students. this is other students and faculty you are coming out to help the students who are still being processed in the police department. they are coming out one by one as they are rain when and given assignments to appear before a judge at a later date. so the last 2 remaining and cabinets have now been cleared in new york, but the groups are still very much united and bowing to continue with their demonstrations. we know that at n y u, some of the jewish students that were arrested and involved in the enchantment, there are planning to actually go back once they're done here and hold their
8:04 pm
ownership on dinner. all right, that's the situation in new york a thank you very much. christian for your reporting. we're go to washington. now we're in cabinets are alive and well as you can see there are bill i mike hand. mike, you're at the george washington university campus. we've discussed this before there an outlier because law enforcement has not moved in has not cleared the campus. explain to us 1st of all, why and also if there are red lines, right. because you heard kristin talking about that. are there a red lines in washington that would cause police to move it? well, let's just take this back 9 days when the 2nd actually begin at that stage, immediately the university of socrates off the d. c. police to move in and remove the protest as the d. c. police though, said it would not do that. it said it's so no evidence of any unlawful activity in
8:05 pm
this encampment, and it would not take any action until it saw such activity taking place. so since then, police have been around here, they regularly walk through the and, and cabins behind me, but no action whatsoever. they've made very clear, they will not be any action unless as willful activity. so here's the key issue. if there is no unlawful activity taking place, then the police will stay away despite the request of university administrators. now the demonstrate is behind me of very, very aware of that. and they held a meeting a couple of hours ago in which they discussed protocols within the encampment, saying that the police must not be approach still spoken to the all people assigned to speak to police. the all people assigned to speak to media. so it's all very regulated, all very organized, and also the cold from the organizes for at the low to be paid. so this is a key issue. this is the red line below is contravene to the eyes of the police.
8:06 pm
then that possibly may be some sort of action, but because the thing can't, but because it demonstrates is wielding this degree of self control, the careful to not to push against that line which may prevent police action. you've had to sit didn't as that has been peaceful for the non dying days, which would just be taking place. mike, how are you able to assess how americans are looking at these, this protest campus movement overall, we're running into the 3rd week of it. now, 2000 students have been arrested at the same time during booking. you know, one of the most fundamental rights that exist in the us, which is freedom of speech. how are america's looking at this is a free option to attack politically. for example, there are many republicans who are urging police departments to remove these encampments as the speaker of the house, for example, actually visited one of being cabins. and board cit, the police should be dealing with it. then you've got some democrats who are
8:07 pm
supporting these demonstrators in these ongoing protests and those that politicians themselves oppose to the way in which the bye didn't administration is continuing to support israel on it's more in gaza. so you do have these layers of opinion. the last reaction underlying this as well as a society that's throwing its mind back to the mass of demonstrations against vietnam in the sixty's, which eventually led to the end of the war is being a cost as a parallel to those demonstrations which were criticized at the time but had a consequence which was a to the benefit of the society as a whole. so there's no one hard and fast opinion about these protests. there are those who support them. there are those who are opposed to them, but the bulk of americans and the bulk of politicians and the bulk of the bite and administration by absolutely adamant that they have the right to express the opinion. as long as this is brittany is expressed in an orderly manner as long as
8:08 pm
other people's rights are not in families by the, the people effecting the right to protest. so the last here, but underlying it all is the free speech issue. and while the law is not broken, is a general opinion, action should not be taking against those who are exercising their right to speak. what a contrast between the scene behind you and a peaceful encampment that we see. this is as a reminder, this is george washington university, and some of the footage we saw while you were speaking of law enforcement aggressively clearing out the protesters on other campuses. mike, hannah, thank you very much for your reporting. student protests in solidarity with palestinians are spreading from the united states to other countries. in paris, people are rallying after police remove protesters occupying parts of the prestigious cl spell. university

who joins us from rough and southern gaza. and as we see, every day, every few hours there are new bombardments, new is really strikes really across the strip of many of them take place in the southern city of rasa. what are you learning? what's happened over the last few hours? the yes, well, the past 24 hours, i've been very buying a very bloody across the street, but we can safely say that the entire gases are being equal the bomb than the northern part of the central area on here and over crowded southern part of the strip were 1500000 displays call as soon as their overnight attacks caused the death of almost 51 people across the gaza strip, as well as most of them as children and causing further civilian casualties. then to your level of destruction, to the areas that we're targeting, to look here in a tragedy that were, that happened here enrolled through crowded dropbox city. a how's the, where
8:13 pm
a display family was inside was targeted, 7 member of the family were killed. that's the mother and her children. and some of the footage that we looked out very well refilled with children arriving to the hospital in plastic bags of the work it's shredded by the intensity of the bonding . the only survivor of this attack was the father that similar to pass proud of the bombings and a top rated by the relentless honey today is we prince, freedom day. and as you know, the un has honored palestinian during this like yourself, who's been working in gaza reporting on this for, for the last 7 months, almost 7 months to the day. and you've been working under extreme pressure. you've worked on this in a moment, will, will watch your report, but can you 1st share with our of yours? you know, you have a family, you have children. what is it like the reporting on this living through this while
8:14 pm
you still try to do your work verbal this particular day or hold significant. it's important for me as a journalist, covering the ongoing, the non folding situations across the got the advisor result of this ongoing board . but it hasn't been really easy at all the quite a stressful and they're working under pressure, ensuring that you are protected and saved in a place. and then a time that you, you only live with chatter, sense of safety given the intensity of the bombings, the patterns of destruction on the and discriminant killings of almost everyone here. no one is immune here and nothing can protect you from the unpredictable calling bonds. the best that we're wearing or the homeless that we put on the do not really protect us from this indiscriminate attacks. and that's very consistent with what these regulars have stated at the beginning of, of this war. it just said they cannot guarantee the safety of journalists, which means they are, they are going to be a legitimate target sports. uh,
8:15 pm
this ongoing bombing campaign. uh, not only the pressure of making sure a box are reported the, their, their verified. and the truth are being told without a wage, without any changes and in a professional way. but in between the daily struggle, the constant worry and concern the panic over the safety. 5 of our family, the safety of, of the people that we are filtering with inside their home because the ongoing attacks. and during those has caused the state of panic, the people who are have been accommodating journalist inside their residential homes because they don't want to be the reason that these residential want being targeted. we've seen examples of, of how most a 100 for the media work is that's being killed by relentless areas. price, either them directly being targeted or they're being punished by their having their families being killed by those air strikes or, or the risk that a deliberate attack by the is really monetary. the dentist frog allows the queueing
8:16 pm
in line for water and bread. they have these and also the, the constant. where are you that are you safety and off? are you going to make it, make it till the next day at field work that is over the, shrouded with high level of fear and concern? because quite honestly, you don't know when one of these unpredictable bonds is going to fall, either behind you and in front of you, or directly uh, targeting the person who's, who's covering these unfolding events. here's a story that we've prepared. don't how journalists for being covering this for uh, i've been targeted either themselves or their families be punished by targeting their families. mm hm. so i, you, the thought we was among the 1st journal listing does that to die covering door. he was the editor in chief of homicide news agency and was documenting israel deadly destruction of the strength of the american media had many dreams for us. i always

8:18 pm
much for us. and before the war done, and $140.00 media workers have been killed in nearly months of war, including algebra, camera amounts found that although the cost and journalists have accused israel of deliberately targeting them and their families, and even more vienna, from rough by palestine. the still ahead on alpha 0. i'm catherine slowly in my my here essentially telling you about the ongoing operation formerly floods that he was thousands of people, the in depth analysis of the days headlines, the failure to free the captive still being held by him. i ask how difficult a moment is this for prime minister netanyahu is trying to stay in differently as 5
