Good morning. Its 8am in singapore, midnight in london, and 2 in the morning injerusalem where Donald Trumps decision to recognise the city as the capital of israel is continuing to cause unrest. Thereve been clashes in the west bank and gaza. Elsewhere, tear gas was used against protestors outside the us embassy in beirut. But israels Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, made it clear he backed Donald Trumps decision telling palestinians to get to grips with reality. Our Arab Affairs Editor sebastian usher reports. Tear gas was fired into a crowd of around 1,000 protesters in beirut as they tried to reach the us embassy this morning. Effigies of President Trump and us flags were burned by angry groups of Palestinian Refugees and lebanese activists. Translation we are here to tell the us embassy, the embassy of the aggressor, thatjerusalem is arab, was arab and it will stay arab. Large rallies have been held in the moroccan capital, rabat. And in cairo too. As protesters try to build momentum across the region against President Trumps decision. In istanbul, thousands turned out to hear president erdogan launch a blistering attack on President Trump and israel. Translation israel is a terrorist state. Yes, terrorist. We will not abandonjerusalem to the mercy of a state that kills children. That earned him a fierce riposte from the israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, who said he wasnt used to receiving lessons on morality from a leader who bombs kurdish villages. He also had a message onjerusalem. It has always been our capital. Jerusalem has never been the capital of any other people. The sooner the palestinians come to grips with this reality, the sooner we move towards peace. But as clashes again broke out near the fence between gaza and israel, many fear that President Trumps move will reignite extremist violence. Well a spokesperson for the us Vice President , mike pence said it was unfortu nate that the palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas was declining to meet mr pence because the us has recognised jerusalem as israels capital. The Us Ambassador to the united nations, nikki haley, believes this recognition will achieve peace. When you recognise the truth, when both parties recognise reality, peace comes and lets just. Lets just the true reality of the situation. We are living in a reality thatjerusalem is the capital of israel but when you notice the president spoke, he made it very clear. He didnt talk about boundaries or borders or any of that because the final status of jerusalem is between the palestinians and israelis. Its not for the americans to decide so we are doing what we do in every other country, israel should be though different, and we will continue to support peace process. Nikki haley there, saying the us is committed to supporting the peace process, but the decision over jerusalem should ultimately be left to the israelis and the palestinians. I put this point to our north america correspondent david willis. The United States is making clear that it remains committed to peace in the middle east but its going to be an uphill battle, particularly given this snub of Vice President mike pence. He was standing behind donald trump when he made that controversial announcement about jerusalem last week and mr trump indeed went on to say that mike pence would be sent to the middle east to reaffirm americas ties to its partners there. Now, mike pence was due to meet with with Mahmoud Abbas in bethlehem in a week but that will not be happening. The palestinians are saying they have no interest indeed in talking with the United States until such time as the donald trump reverses his controversial decision last week. Mike pences spokesman, in a statement, said that that was u nfortu nate, statement, said that that was unfortunate, as he put it, u nfortu nate unfortunate, as he put it, unfortunate that the palestinians we re unfortunate that the palestinians were walking away from an opportunity to discuss the future of the region. Given the global condemnation and the protests in the region and elsewhere, this clearly remains a very difficult decision, difficult announcement for the americans to get past this time. Absolutely. Where do they go from here . That, i think, absolutely. Where do they go from here . That, ithink, is absolutely. Where do they go from here . That, i think, is a bit unclear. We heard from nikki haley that this decision in her view will move the ball forward, as she put it, towards the goal of peace in the middle east but the status of jerusalem remains, of course, crucial to the conflict between israelis and palestinians. The palestinians continue to see occupied East Jerusalem palestinians continue to see occupied eastjerusalem as the capital of their future state and the very fact that they have now effectively walked away from the negotiating table makes, i think, the prospect of peace in the middle east or the more difficult for the Trump Administration to hope to attain. David willis. Also making news today. The winner of this years Nobel Peace Prize has warned that the world could be just one impulsive ta ntrum away from nuclear destruction. Beatrice fihn made the comments while accepting the award in oslo on behalf of her organisation, the International Campaign to abolish nuclear weapons. She was apparently referring to current tensions and the trading of insults between the United States and north korean president s. A moment of panic or carelessness, a misconstrued comment or a boost ego could easily lead us to the destruction of entire cities. A calculated military escalation could lead to the indiscriminate murder of civilians.

However, severalfires north of los angeles are still burning out of control. One person is known to have been killed, and more than two hundred thousand people have been forced to leave their homes. This is zaira wasim, one of indias leading actresses, who says she was sexually harassed while on board a flight from delhi to mumbai.

But they wont be around forever, theyll be destroyed in february. The internet whether its social media or shopping online is a presence in most of our lives and its dominance among children is becoming more apparent. But new research from unicef is warning that too little is being done to protect them from the dangers of the digital world. Every day 176,000 children go online for the first time. Young people aged between 15 and 2a are the most connected age group. Worldwide, 71 are online compared with 48 of the total population. African youth are the least connected, with around 3 out of 5 youth offline, compared tojusti in 25 in europe. The online world is dominated by english language websites approximately 56 are in english. Sexual abuse is a big concern. More than 9 in 10 child sexual abuse urls identified globally are hosted in five countries canada, france, the netherlands, the Russian Federation and the United States. Theres lots to discuss lets speak to laurence chandy, unicefs director of data, research and policy. Hes in our new york studio. 0bviously child sex abuse is a key concern. How is the internet exposing children to this . U nfortu nately, exposing children to this . Unfortunately, the internet has become a one stop shop for the sexual abuse of children, a place where children at of sexually did, it is where businesses can be organised, its whether material can be ultimately advertised and distributed, all with a high degree of anonymity. And all that means the whole business of Sexual Exploitation of children has become more profitable and children are therefore increasingly at risk. There are some aspects of the web which support this, including the anonymous payment platforms and encrypted platforms by which material can be spared spread. I believe some of your viewers may be seeing some footage right now which unicef has provided of a 12 Year Old Girl from the philippines who was coerced into performing sexually explicit acts on line for extremely modest payments. 0ne explicit acts on line for extremely modest payments. One of the customers from the us ultimately travelled to the philippines to visit her and attempted to rape her before the authorities in the philippines thankfully were able to rescue the girl. This is very serious. We are hoping to show you that clip but for viewers, you can watch it on line on the unicef website. It is a deeply disturbing story indeed. Whats disturbing as most of child sex abuse sites are actually hosted out of five countries that we mentioned earlier. The netherlands, the us, canada, france and the Russian Federation. So why is that specifically and should the government of these countries shoulder most of the responsibilities to keep children safe . Responsibilities to keep children safe . 0r responsibilities to keep children safe . Or is it not quite that simple . The truth is, we dont fully understand why there is this great concentration. The statistic you are talking about we have sourced from the Internet Watch Foundation who speculate the reason is in those countries, one can distribute material on line at very low cost with high speed and a high degree of anonymity but we dont exactly know and that captures so much of the problem of protecting children on line because the risks are continuing to evolve and expand and regulators are unfortunately behind the curve. You ask a good question about whose fault is this and i think there is plenty of blame to go around. It starts with policymakers and regulators and also corporations. The companies is platforms are often used to spread explicit material of children. And again, this is not a straightforward issue. There are some deep questions to ask about what the responsibility of those funds are. I would go back to this key point that the internet was not built with children in mind but they are among the most frequent users today. Laurence chandy from unicef on that report out today, thank you so much to joining unicef on that report out today, thank you so much tojoining us.
