9:02 pm
or also protesting in solidarity with palestinians in paris. now police removed at least 50 protesters occupying parts of cl spell. university. 6 of the protesters had been on hunger strike and were staging sits in. well, we'll be hearing from correspondence in both harrison berlin shortly. let's start though. in the united states. mike, hannah is a george washington university. john hendrick is at the university of michigan. and kristen salumi is that a police station near new york university? so you're there kristin? because there have been arrest in new york of the absolutely the last 2 student and cabinets were cleared out early this morning. much to the students surprise about 60 of them were arrested for cheap uh, 16 of them from new york university. the rest from the new school and they were taken to the police plaza, which is behind me to be processed. you can see the police presence outside here.
9:03 pm
and as you look around, there's a whole support team here waiting for the students as they're released from being processed one by one they've been coming out. there's a legal team here. there are students with water students with medical supplies, students with food, to show their support and give them assistance when they come out of the police processing system. and as those students come out, they're being shared by the students here. and i should say, faculty members, as well as seen a lot of faculty coming and going, there's at least 100, maybe 200 people around the corner offering that support the students i've been speaking to you here say that it was an unexpected arrest that i did with you in particular, just yesterday they were speaking with the administration in the administration told him they had no plans to clear the in cabin. they think the fact that a large dinner pressure bought with 2 students about 2000 jewish students,
9:04 pm
was planned in the building right next to where they were set up for that evening and a trigger for the, for the arrest that they didn't want to have any conflict or any any interaction happening there. the students to say however, that they are a peaceful organization. many of the students that were indian cabinet, including some who are arrested, are themselves jewish. and now they are planning their own siobhan dinner outside of that one. uh, where the and cabin was later today, and i to continue the demonstrations to continue to protest. they say that if anything this has invigorated them more and they're not gonna stop. all right, kristen, thank you very much. that is how the encampment was dealt with at the side of the new york university. let's go to john henry and who's at the university of michigan in ann arbor, michigan. john, all right, well i have part of my answer because i see the tense behind you. i know that
9:05 pm
they're a graduation ceremony is taking place today. i wonder whether that might also be a flash point because universities usually don't like their graduation ceremony to be disrupted. that's right. it seems that other universities have definitely cleared out these encampments before their graduation ceremonies, which we've, we've seen in new york. i don't know if that was part of the timing, but i'll tell you we're probably 23 football fields away from where a graduation is going on right now. and yet this protest here continues as it has been for some time. and on saturday, one day from now, 8000 people will graduate in a massive ceremony with 63000 people watching. so apparently protest and graduations can co exist. but i've got somebody can tell us a little more about this. this is selma. come on, me. thank you for joining us on that. she's with students for justice in palestine
9:06 pm
. um and let me know if i've said that wrong, instead of going to tell me like, how is it with, how is the protest co existing with the graduations right now? yeah, so protests are always going to exist in our university remains complicit in the ongoing genocide and because that and has been directly and indirectly contributing financially to the military companies that are bombing hard stuff. so we cannot operate as business as usual. so the university is going to try their absolute best to do that. however, students are always going to be 5 upside of them and they are going to plan and they are going to coordinate students here are absolutely committed and dedicated, which is why they are withholding themselves back from any and all celebratory actions to commit to actions for has that and you will see that takes place to every single graduation across the country. and let me ask you got a personal connection with with palestine talk to me about. yeah,
9:07 pm
so i am from novice. i also have family members in the floods. the about 14 of them were recently killed and an ongoing is really an attack. i'm sorry to hear that. thank you. i appreciate that. um, and not only myself, but also several students here have lost hundreds of family members in the floods, the because post citizens have been scattered all throughout the world. so the resistance and the resilience continues to exist here within the confines of in our britain beyond. so students here have personal connections and students here who also don't in personal connections, are witnessing this and will stand up. excellent. and, and just one quick question. you are going to remain here after graduation, correct? yes, despite myself graduating, i am from ann arbor. i will be here, i will be right over the place is that is contributing to the genocide against my people. we are going to continue to fight. so students who are not backing down. thank you so much. money from students for justice in palestine. thank you for
9:08 pm
joining. as i said, we're here, there's encampment and they say that they're going to remain here after graduation . right. and i'm, and i'm glad you asked that last question, john, because it is the end of the academic year. typically students go back home, so it does raise the question of the lasting power. you know of these, of these uh, these protests. i'll go to mike know, mike, hannah is the george washington university in washington dc. so we see every university deals with a differently where you are, you know, this triangle of law enforcement, police university leadership. and the protesters seem to found a way to co exist for these protests to continue peacefully. where do you see this going as well. the key issue was the refusal of dc police to accept the call by university administrators to move been en route, then move being compliment when it began 9 days ago. but another key issue here as well is see a self regulation of the demonstrates is a hold
9:09 pm
a meeting at 11 o'clock, they go through the rules of being compliment, only it's chosen representative speak to police, speak to the media. so all is very tightly organized as exams begin tomorrow, the end of year exams, the ones that were due to take place in buildings around university of this area had be moved to other buildings. and then commencement, graduation takes place on sunday, the 19th. so that's in just over 2 weeks time. so the question of whether the students will remain the office commencement. that is something that is open to speculation as those we have spoken to or insistent that he a sale going to remain. okay, so you see this? oh sorry, let me rephrase what they say that they will remain. that is you have to be seen sometime during the month of may usually is when students go home, they say they're gonna stay there. mike, as you take a broader look at this, what's the impact of these protests been? you were telling us, you know, there are multiple ways to look at this. there's the politics of it. there's and
9:10 pm
there's, there's how much these protests actually move the needle on the national stage, which is always hard to assess the yes, it does move the needle on the national stage. it is a reminder to americans of what happened in the protests against the vietnam war. way back in the sixty's, those were heavily criticized, but resulted to a degree in the end of the war. so this as a point of discussion among the american public, these protests of point of dispute among many of the public, some support them, some don't. but what is an undercurrent of discussion as well is the fact that while they remain norful, they have a right to exercise the voice. now this is an american principle is part of the constitution and is being exercised while no lawyers are contravene, and just one extra word on that to, to understand why the students here are self or regulating to this degree. you just
9:11 pm
have to take a walk through the food cause behind me here. and there are d. c police, but they're also secret service agents that are protection offices from the state department. they're all paramedics from the nearby hospital, which is a presidential emergency hospital. the square is that the epi sent of some of the nation's most secure and bundle and sensitive sites. the security around them is unbelievable. that demonstrate has a, with a, with that security around them goes far beyond the local d. c. police, it is layer upon layer upon layer and pins. no red lines across, they all very careful top said as a little too expensive. right? that's a very good point that you made. there's a lot less room there for unpredictability and disruption generally around these protests just due to where they are geographically. so close to the white house and the state department. thank you very much. my kind of a student protests in solidarity with palestinians have also spread to europe. in paris, police removed at least 50 people occupying parts of the sea on spell university,
9:12 pm
from where and the paschal butler sent this report. the french police into powers whose procedures, seals, po, university campus to remove thousands of students who had staged in over night sits in school for an in to israel's war and gaza. offices to the students outside before allowing them to leave the area in small groups. most to remain defiance. i don't know capacities to cut the system on. well, our demands are clear and we want an inquiry into the academic and economic links between our university and those and israel, because israel is violating human rights and that's when the director said it would never happen. we also have 6 students on hunger strike, others who would join, but the director said isn't changing nothing. and then other parts of the city, hundreds of students demonstrated in front of the historic all to go building. the students are here to show he's on the direction with palestinian people,
9:13 pm
but also to denounce website say it's growing police refreshing university campuses . they cannot, as soon as there is a university sit in the police are sent in. today we have a government who are increasingly authoritarian with young protesters. a government that won't let young people speak out about these really palestinian conflict. there was a tense moments when a group of counter demonstrators arrived, at least quickly, intervene to restore. com for monday university students are expected to assist exams. it's on clear if that will be possible if the protests continue. and so now the students say they have no intention to back them down. it's actually butler. how does their powers in germany know police arrested several protesters taking part in a sit in a tumbled university in berlin, or corresponded dominic cane was there. the police have just started taking away some of the most vociferous of the protest. this 2 people dragged away sofa. it's
9:14 pm
happened because a protest has had 4 bottles of water to assist to sustain them during this process . they fanatic not for several hours and the arrival of those votes of office was the capitalist of the police to move in and drag people away. you can see there are still somewhere around about 30 people sat here facing the cost in this price taping. and he was singing the policy now and that sort of thing goes to the salt and smoke and say happy shante over those 2 hours. he owns the other side of the gate so you can see what the police presence here. there is also another smaller price, that's the people seem similar songs, surgeons, johnson, and that sort of thing. remember the full force he's wanted this process to be shut down some considerable time. a good question is how much longer will the police allow these to continue remembering, they have already dragged away. some of the most vociferous protest this. we shall see. dominic king al jazeera cooling the
9:15 pm
on the ground and gaza. israel's attacks have killed at least 26 pound listings in the past 24 hours. the woman and her 6 children were killed in a strained kind of home in russia. they included disabled teenager and a 6 year old. nearly 1500000 displaced palestinians are seeking refuge in the southern city. the $10.00 out of the shop, we work up to the news of the martyrdom of my sister and her 6 children and an entire family wiped out from the civil registry. this morning, i just want to convey a message. what is the fault of these children? what are they done to have the building bumped for 3 rockets? what did they do? these children were sleeping, 2 of her daughters by smaller and the sun were found in pieces in a mother's embrace, the remains were connected in one back. what did they do to them? i want to understand, what did they gain? all they do to us is unfair and forbidden, or let's go down to zeros honey mount hood,
9:16 pm
who joins us live from rasa in southern gaza. honey, more aid went into gauze on thursday. then we've seen in a very long time, 237 trucks on thursday. do you expect that that could be a turning point? do you expect to see higher levels of a going into a gas? and now the yes, well we're looking at a significant increase then on, in terms of the amount of a humanitarian aids that being lifted to the gaza strip. now this increased their whole base. that's going to continue. it's going to be much larger in the coming days and in light of the progress and the talks going on in, in cairo. and just within the past few minutes, we've heard that there is a delegation going from gaza. sorry, it's delegation by how much into chiral and that is going to feeding into a progress that is made. so in light of that, the whole past a seeds,
9:17 pm
firewood lead into the increase of humanitarian aid. but right now, it's just in the face of the challenges a created by the intense bombing campaign by the frictions and up struction of, of the floating. i'm an attorney, an aide within the past months. this is not nearly enough to respond to the emergencies and the greater needs across the gods district that we're good. there is a famine going on in the northern part and w a show on auto agencies united nations. a warrant of this fam is going to continue and it has pretty much negative implications on the live be hard and the safety and the security of everyone to know the parts. meanwhile, in the southern part of this trip, when we look at the number of a trucks and look at the number of people here, an overcrowded robust city, that is also a drop in the ocean of the daily needs of what people right now. i need in order to survive these difficult conditions, guys are before the war aided at least 500 trucks on
9:18 pm
a daily basis. constantly flow off of the truck with our commercial trucks on term of a human $3.00 and $8.00. and right now we need a constant flow of this number in order to get out of this. a man made the crisis across the street. yeah, absolutely, and that's very important perspective, honey. 237 trucks going into guys on thursday that's still less than half the daily number of trucks that would go into guys that before the war. now it will come back to you in a moment on a palestinian during this covering israel's war and gaza had been awarded this year's unesco world press freedom, fries to, but a student. in july, discovering garza and international jury said that it recognized their courage during what it called times of darkness and hopelessness. at least a 143 media workers and journalists have been killed in gaza in nearly 7 months of war. latin america editor lucy, a newman is in san diego where the award was handed out. it's worth pointing out to
9:19 pm
see that this year is world press freedom conference was going to be and was due to focus on the environment. but in light of what's happening in gaza, they chose to honor palestine journalists absolutely, and it is still focusing on the environment. but it was, it was for obvious reasons decided that the flight of palestinian jordan to the shore covering the war on valves. i had to also share center stage and that's exactly what happened didn't. and then a very emotional ceremony, a very moving ceremony. the announcement was made and it was also unprecedented because it's the 1st time that the, the edible guy, no fries for world press freedom, is given to such a large group of journalists, usually just the one individual, just to remind our viewers get more candle, was a colombian, publisher and the owner of the newspaper and his big fellow who was assassinated in
9:20 pm
1986 by the 1000000 drug cartel. he then, after who passed the unesco and his family set up a fund and this award, which is a very prestigious award indeed. but this conference going back to what you said is not solely about the plight of palestinian journalists, but rather what is happening to a journalist around the globe who are now under a tech. the journalists are facing unprecedented. dangerous watch dogs say that we're getting into the gaza media workers are under siege. oh my god. did you hear that? since israel's military offensive beginning october,
9:21 pm
more than 140 journalist had been killed, making the strip one of the most dangerous places for reporters as the healthy you know for this been in the do not tell us the new gen less and god are exposed to the most horrific attacks and live in the worst conditions on. so they sacrificed themselves and their families for the sake of doing their job and completing that mission one to tell the world about the truth on the ground. but the danger is not confined only to worse zones. several countries, i mean post tighter laws and regulations governing journalists in georgia mess process started taking place against the so called for an influence bill, which the governing part says will strengthen independence. but critics aids designed to crush the same thing planned down on the dependent media outlets. china is newly expanded state secrets law, which previously applied only to military and diplomatic activities. now covers work secrets,
9:22 pm
which many fear is undefined and could impact the reporting of all state institutions. some west them countries are accused of surveilling journalists. as in the u. k. 2 journalists in belfast, the police set up a trap in order to uncover their sources. is deeply troubling when politicians, i says, donald trump is the most famous of them. but the problem can be seen in many countries, demonize and undermine, generalist because the minds trust in all the information that we have on it. forces people into polarized information bubbles. journalists have additional obstacles this year due to the record number of elections worldwide. in toggle, for an immediate were banned from covering monday as parliamentary elections. in india, local media outlets are often pressure by the government and a powerful business owners. and many foreign journalists have been denied visas to cover the elections. in a year of increase in castillo,
9:23 pm
the there are calls for better protection of journalists who sometimes speed the highest price to tell a story of access, i'm gonna reach out to 0. well, not a pretty picture at all, and that also applies to journalists to cover the environment. and that the trend is not a good one either. so joining me now to discuss that far more in detail is eunice goes top experts on media freedom and the protection of journalists, he had made kind of a lot good mist. thank you for joining us and sharing all your expertise. and i'd like to start specifically asking you to tell us about the results of the report that you guys could just publish about the, the challenges and the dangers that journalists that are covering the requirements are facing. thank you, is always a pleasure to speak with sergeant 0 viewers, although about such a dramatic and sad the issue like these one but any important one. so unit school
9:24 pm
has commissioned a very special report which 2 basic elements. one, it's a survey with 900 journalist from 129 countries reporting on environmental issues. so this is the 1st part. and the 2nd part is an analysis of what happened in the last 50 years with the violence against environmental journal is based on several sources in both elements. unfortunately, confirm each other. the journalist surveyed 70 percent of them said that they were subject to at least one kind of violence because of doing environmental coverage. a physical harassment online harassment, especially the women journalist, legal attack. so the knees use of the judicial system and the consequences for them are very bad. 75 percent still does. they felt they had mental health issues. after
9:25 pm
this kind of pressure. 50 percent said they decided to sell the sensor themselves, which is not the surprise, right? we're after these kind of attacks. so this is the journalist telling us their experience. the source is we did the math and knowledge. this confirmed this in the last 50 years. 44 journalists were killed because of coal ring environmental issues . and the beauty t rate against these regarding these skills is huge. but more than the killings 7750 kinds of different attacks took place in 89 countries from legal attacks to police between journalist reporting on environmental process or a psychological attacks. it's, that's a what is, what is the bottom line off? all of these backpacks are happening every year. where in the world all reduce noah's specific spotlight and they are across the board. journalist score brings
9:26 pm
from floods to climate change to illegal mining. so you know, squeeze st. this is an urgent matter. yes. and i understand it's actually increasing more and more in europe and in the united states, for example, where you wouldn't have expected it so much bye, particularly the bay area to area is increasing those 2 regions. you mention one, the journalist offering environmental protests. and when they are doing their job and covering the protests, they are on the dock. so this is one area is increasing in those 2 regions. you mention plus latin america and the other kinds of attacks as the legal attacks watching europe is known as is loc. the strategic law suits against public participation. these are things freezing. well, we're running out of time, but if you could just very quickly tell me what then is the solution? what can be done? first thing is that all the society, but particularly big bar apartments, should be there john, brook tax journalist because journalists are essential elements in these machinery of dealing suicide. what is happening about the environment?
9:27 pm
but these, you need to do your job in a safe manner. so this is the 1st thing, but then the import, the element is to fighting beauties. and for that we need to be engaged. more judges, prosecutors, and we do these once he gets from that mental capacity building, we need to talk more through church. thank you. the admitting thanks very much and there you have it is a very long list of things that need to be done here. this conversation will continue throughout this day and into saturday, and to try to come up with not to just identify the problem, but also the solutions back to you now. all right, let's see a new in reporting from santiago in july where the world press freedom conference has been taking place. it was focused on the environment, but it on a palestinian during list and that's why i want to go back to i was was there was honey, my hood in rossa in southern, gaza a honey look, we want to go to your personal experience of covering this for you've covered oars and gaza before but this one of course has been on
9:28 pm
a totally different scale. i wanted to ask you of all the things that you've been through over the last 7 months, relocating your family worrying for your children. of course, the danger to you personally, what stands out to you the most, as you think back to the last of the both thorough the past 7 months have been extremely stressful and difficult at all levels. this is nothing compared to path round of violence or a small war is going on here in, in the region or in the gaza strip. this one is different. it constitutes more that it's just a war. first of all, it's not a conventional word that we are seeing and it's definitely dominating but one side, what we're looking at conser, you use words then genocide or genocide, the locks on the ground, the shutter sense of safety. that is the most stressful thing that i, i have to deal with though in a personal level. not only joe,
9:29 pm
and not been in front of the camera on a daily basis, reporting about death and destruction that has been largely depressing. disappointing because i wanted to come in to front the camera and report about something positive, good to change fees as something that is in illuminating to the other people. but the fact that they went on for it's going on for the past 7 months. and it's the same pattern of death and destruction has the greater a negative impact and who i am and how i'm actually seeing the world right now. and it, it just the, the, the status is of safety as well. the weather here at the side for, for the family on daily basis. the daily struggle off of providing for the family cuing in line for hours between reports, making phone calls, making sure that the loud explosion that is heard is not, is not near where they are. so drag or is it close enough? is it far away? everybody's okay. that's the ongoing questions in the back of my, of my head. and it, what it's going on for is for the past
9:30 pm
a period of time and it's taking it's paul on how, where we actually go and an hour a time here they do today. here's a story that we did about palestinian journalists covering this for me. so you the thought we was among the 1st journal listing dogs are to die covering door. he was the editor in chief of homicide news agency and was documenting israel deadly destruction of the strength. and then i didn't, i'm going to continue in that i had many dreams for us. i always hopes that my children would be as caring and just calling to me and said was to his mother, but his children didn't get enough time with him to absorb everything from the father who died very young. a god's will help us guy. that's the key on the 5th side was killed. one is really forces bond 0 media buildings in a remote and neighborhood in ga, the city, just a few days into the war. really forces had issue the evacuation order and he was
9:31 pm
there to phone the bombing. but his really forces a changed tactics and struck a different, much a closer target. going him and 2 other journalists. they had been wearing a flag jackets and home instead of clearly identified them as oppressed. death has left his father at a loss with them at the end. the 1st of all i didn't see side means so much to me, but that's why you used to carry all of our family bud. and he's now i'm alone and useless and unable to carry those buttons. he's to do so much for us. and the more than 140 media workers have been killed in nearly months of wars including algebra, camera, mount summit auto dot com. and journalists have accused israel of deliberately targeting them and their families. and even more vienna from dropbox, palestine. the still ahead on alpha 0 will be tell you why russians her military
9:32 pm
troops have entered a us military base and new share in sports more injury concerns for the reigning wimbledon champion and a race against time to be fit for the next grand slam. twice the hello. it's brightening up nicely now with cross survey. yeah. right in peninsula please guys. now coming back through. i like to spell it right right. whether stormy weather that's in the process of pulling out of the way fast. i could still bring a shower to run by right around kata briefly, and then it will ease out to the why. still a few showers into i mine into where i am and for a time, 7 pots of savvy, but essentially it's forming up in the be, are going to see more in the way of hazy sunshine, sunshine to just around the southern parts of the bank. but further north,
9:33 pm
we got some great risk when speeding some very heavy showers in to west and pops of syria into ducky a, in the shower slipping down into lebanon. as we go on into sunday, it will stay dry. the just around a gauze of the we are going to see temperatures into the mid twenties. it allows you to go smooth, impulsive africa, one or 2 shelves just around that. that's it, that we have got a few showers longest bell, surprise, seasonal res showing that had to go southern past or west africa, but nothing too much to speak of. plenty of showers continue across uganda and also western parts of kenya. and then noticed we have this intensifying tropical sideway, making its way towards times in a really heavy right. and also some damaging wins. the, this is the 1st one i saw that we see in real time is the victims themselves was when i saw there's
9:34 pm
a disconnect between what we are witnessing on social media versus what we're seeing on mainstream. it is always an attempt to frame a 2 sides of them, but there is no 2 sides to this. the western media does have a western bias. understand what they are looking to see out and raise. the listening post covers how the news is covered. you will see the caught a duty and a growth using for the p use a cost to contribute to improving the lives of thousands of our projects except the cost and we strive to ensure it reaches it's deserving recipients. visit the cost on the web presence. and remember the copy revised wells and increases systems cost on request the the
9:35 pm
the, the $1.00 thing else has 0 reminder of our headlines. a woman in her 6 children have been killed and it is really strength on the home. in the rough is really a tax of killed at least $26.00 people in the past 24 hours. the unesco world press freedom prize has gone to a palestinian journalists covering israel's warren johnson. at least a 143 media workers and journalists have been killed in gaza. and nearly 7 months of police in new york had been removing students from being kept instead, new york university more than 2000 people have interested across the country. so far, since student solidarity process began, students occupying a library at goldsmith's university in solidarity with palestinians have announced
9:36 pm
that management has seated to their demands. among other things. students want more scholarships for palestinian students. they had previously occupied a building on campus. this is in london for 5 weeks in february and march. well, as the mirror, lee is a student organizer at goldman university. she joins us from the university library that they've been occupying. summer is mirror, it's good to have you on the show. why? why are you still at the library if your demands have been exceeded to well, i'm currently just still the library because they're packing up. okay. i will be concluded all occupation box, you know, visit with also still celebrate. and the students are still, hey, i just want to check on the logistics, let's get to the substance of it. you, i, we've been covering the student protest movement for quite a while. now i don't recall that there is any other student body that has basically had the success that you've had explains as what you asked for and what the
9:37 pm
university is going to do. yeah, so um students that goes with a pod, a. com paying and that's been going on for 6 months, really, since outside of, of the 7, it's in both products us and we'll couse actions which, you know, included occupations like the 5 weeks occupation the thought was set before. i'm gonna try and they have just started occupation of the library. we have several months to out in relation to all university. you know, our universities on campus today on providing support to polish didn't use the one by white. what was the main one? um, i think the best thing would be one of the most seminal things we bought is the palestinians . scholarship. so now this university will divide to extra positive. this was that some one of them but, but include the undergraduate scholarship. but i think this is the 1st few of us timber and which were on the offer and about the project scholarships deposited in . so me think this is really cool and considering that's a destruction of educational infrastructure and gaza,
9:38 pm
that we are providing this to students who don't have access to education for months. is this the thing you have to resist that they're going to be offering? if i understand you correctly, they're going to be offering to scholarships for palestinian students. is this something they had resisted? i'm yes, today that was a suspense and that was taken as this loads got here. and when we went into the occupation, my bill occupying for 5 weeks, we thought, you know, having discussions with mom has been to try and win these demands. and since the end of the occupation management and speech was that even though they weren't listening to the students, so that's why we were forced to take action again on since then. obviously we're happy to say that those them on top of one, which includes the minds that i, it's a divestment as well. people so much less positive calls on that to me. the investment because this, this is something you have in common with most student protests. i want to say across the us in paris and berlin as well. so divestment means cutting ties. usually financial ties between the university and israel in terms of uh, any finances that they might might have invested. is that what you were asking them
9:39 pm
to do in your case? yes, definitely. so we highlighted to the university that, that was the companies that they invested in the are complicit and you know, the ongoing genocide, the steins, such as the companies. yes. so, so all in advance to take the goldsmith funds lead or no big investments into almost companies per se, but the investments into bigger companies like google and amazon and some of them that you know, are recognized as listed by a be a, the b, the on going to be the estimated man. so you're also going to come for an actual price with google and amazon putting you ask them to cut financial ties with google and amazon. these are just some of the companies i'm that will also banks as well as companies like state logo. it should be an identified in the past. i'm a man. um, you know, we recognize that those mis have small, uh, investments that infinity in about think of universities in for and the resulting
9:40 pm
is simple and that'd be the one off. he's never had anyone in companies that all can push that. and what did they say they would do then a certain times as i investments, i said that they will um, basically renew the investment policies. and that will be able to help us a lot. so hopefully we can get, you know, know, investing in, you know, the human rights abuses of palestine into, into that investment policy and that they will consider switching the amount of jobs. so hopefully, you know, that's, that's more what to him about as a really important guy and it's for the divestment component goldsmith's, i think somebody else that has a really good thing. the one was about one of the left to is that we will occupy, um we have one that is not going to be renamed after siri novel. right? so that we will occupied the immediate apartment, a goldsmith's and a half box recognition of you know, opposed to being done. that was, that was my, that by the idea, but not that memorialize of the seen a bus table be, you know, amazing is something we're really proud of. what assume it or can i,
9:41 pm
can i make sure i heard that right? you're saying the media department at golds. goldsmiths university is gonna be renamed. what the sharina of aqua immediate department is that right? i asked because for viewers who don't know, should we not walkway was a houses you were a reporter. very well known for her reporting throughout the occupied westbank who was killed a by is really military forces. yeah. so one of the commitments was to bring a wanted to let to this, but did not build a i've to. huh. so why would it be that they will follow through on that? i was unaware of that, and it is good to know that assuming we're only student organizer at goldsmith's university in london, thank you for joining us. i understand you're going to be breaking down your encampment at the library where you currently are. um, so thank you for your time today. thank you. turning to west africa, no russian troops have entered a military base in new jersey or where us troops are stationed. these years government had asked the americans to leave after a qu,
9:42 pm
last year. us secretary of defense lloyd, austin says that he's confident his troops are safe. i think you know that everybody's running. one we're at 4 inches is, is a new sherry and the air force base that is co located with the international airport in the capital city. and the russians are in a separate uh, compound and don't have access to us forces or access to our equipment. and this is something that, you know, again, i'm always focused on the, i'm a safety and protection of our troops, something that we'll, we'll continue to watch. uh, but uh right now i don't see, i don't see a significant issue here in terms of our, our force protection advocacy, hell region where that base is located as experienced years of violence. american troops have operated in news here since 2018 to fight arm groups linked to iceland al qaeda. but in countries within the sale, there's been growing dissatisfaction with western forces and their inability to end
9:43 pm
the attacks. meanwhile, russia has been lobbying to fill this security void. it's paramilitary groups like wagner have a long formed partnerships with governments in the soho and after the share burkina faso and molly each experienced cool, was there a new military leader as chose to increase cooperation with moscow instead of with the west? evicted ok as a professor of international politics at the coffee and on international peacekeeping center. i spoke to him recently. he says that russia's presence in the chair is part of a plan to expand its influence in the science. this is more like an act of the location on the side of russia and then to prove it point the control not only in the chair but was really into so how and what influence is going. and then to also let the americas new that, well, we don't really care what you say. you have to do our business. and for that long term it has implications for not only didn't measure, but there's
9:44 pm
a whole region. and then we also took the regional cooperation agency, economic vanya cheese. okay, that's the continental. what do you like to watch? what is going to be the irish things to be? so it is really an interesting time. and now we look it up. what's gonna happen? comes to the point where, let's go back for instance when, when, when these concepts nature of booking up muscle and then models, right? the sent to me, it's a games for my, for many of colors like friends. so it's come to a point where these countries feel that we need a new partnership. okay, we need a new by like file for question either in military, in an economic or whatever needs. so whatever it is now up to them to decide what do want to engage in going forward. and i think based on the trajectory the, when to push speed, operate with russia on all levels hangs down when it has to operate the click ok.
9:45 pm
you also see addition, when do rush awful by trial pushing, going, followed of russia's foreign ministry, says that most go is willing to consider serious proposals for ending the war with ukraine. a spokeswoman said russia one security guarantees and for the west to stop supplying arms to keep you can go to the club. my, that's what i see a speaking globally. russia has always been and remains open for diplomatic settlement of the ukraine crisis that takes into account rushes security concerns to settle the crisis in an all inclusive, fair and stable way. one must eliminate its reasons. first, the west must not feeding ukraine's own forces with weaponry. keys must stop its military activities, and ukraine must return to the routes of his stay. toad neutral. no, no lined. no nuclear status. allison and christians and occupied east jerusalem are

9:51 pm
a game and to just be present that meeting the moment. and let's see what happens. well, early as far as small spoke to a full, a player on the gray, he won the english championship with habits and back in 1995. and he says, also fall better equipped to finish ahead of months. just the city this season, both at home, the home records are terrific, both in good form, very good for them. and i would be amazed like many other football finds a fossil in my chair, so sexy. don't win the weekend games. i think if one of them is a split box in the run up to the end of the season, where might it be? well, let's get through games. you've touched on them at the beginning of your bill within there. and also i've got to go through all traffic. no. normally that would be a real tough game. but that's my gesture united. i'm nowhere near where my just you, that you should be. so i think actual will be very confident they can go there and when not football much, much as a say you have a little bit of a bowl get seem to go and play my spouse a week. so that's a game that could easily, not wait, i'm not saying they can lose it,
