Its official say both sides have agreed to a truce, but theres been no firm confirmation of that from either the palestinians. All the israelis estimate to had fighters have launched a barrage of around a 100 missiles towards southern israel in response to the killing of one of its leaders by is ralph sirens and explosions have been heard in other cities including tel aviv. When people ran from the beach, palestinian Prime Minister mohammed should, he has called on the Un Security Council to intervene. We, what we call on this institution to take more steps than just to verbal denunciations. We called for an end to the double standards and dealing with the question of human rights and international conflicts. While i, you can, we can never accept the continued crimes against our people, our children, women and civilians, families that have lost their children and children that have lost their parents and families that have been deprived of their homes. Earlier malden 1700 ultra nationalists, israelis added detentions by entering the locks the most compounded occupied east jerusalem. It was on the annual day of fasting. We have 2 correspondents covering the laces developments. Its actual name is in west jerusalem. First, lets go over the south for the gallery, his line from, from garzo, with seeing the casualty, toll mounting. Now. Tell us what happened in the latest is really air raids. Well, the minister of hell say that 41. 00 full of seniors have been killed on including 15 child and during the 3 days of israeli escalation, while we are reporting now, we could hear the explosions of the kids that are fly up from garza and to israel. And we could, we could also the exclusion of israeli, i on the system, is trying to intercept the rockets fire from gun just few minutes ago. There were a 3 i fax or 3 rockets, fire a just right, 300 meters from our beauty here. It seems like a warning, a warning explosions, which means that there will be another bigger exposure. All of our colleagues here are pointing the cameras and waiting for the expected explosion. On the other hand, you could see in the background doc, most of most of the gaza strip now is in, in dark since the, the power station yesterday i switched off on because of the lack of the fuel. Now 56. 00 days it shuts down on the tool made proceeds, karen shallow for the goods or kernel plentiful goods. And it is for individual ha, which me is or which will for more humanitarian crisis. The International Aid organization, or humanitarian organizations now are appealing to appealing because the humanitarian condition is deteriorating in gaza, which this escalations, they say this collision will add more humanitarian crisis to the already existing crisis. 50 percent of the population in garza are unemployed. 70 percent of them also depend on the food a distributed by United Nations or other human italian organizations. And suff one. Lets talk a little bit about a cease fire was supposed to come according to some reports. It should have already been in place now. Do we know where we stand with that sci fi . The gamut of these conflicting groping reports about the announce or the broker egyptian si fi are on the ground or is let me just still launching the rockets on it. Has not confirmed yet or reaching us fire also days really side. They have not also or it hasnt confirmed reaching for such a cease fire. Audition broker sees fire. Yes. There are conflicting report. We we are, we have been watching. We have been listening to different or related reports, but on the ground, only the rockets on that is really dark. Are dominating the field of hearing god. All right, thanks so much stuff. What kat clued there . Lets take this now to natasha her name. Shes in west jerusalem with more of this. What are we hearing from israeli officials, if anything about this cease fire . Well were just learning that a prominent member of the canal, it is saying that hes been in contact with members of the cabinet and that a cease fire is quote close. The hope was that at some point this evening, israel would be able to announce a cease fire that has not happened at this time on day 3 of operation. So called operation breaking dawn. The government has not said anything officially about a cease fire, but there are media reports that the government is not going to meet any demands made by the palestinian Islamic Jihad. One of the demands that the assad mac to hide is making is that israel released by some l i. E d. He is a member of the senior leaders, leadership of Islamic Jihad. He was arrested on thursday. And as i said, israel according to media reports, is not bargaining. And of course is so much you had, one could say doesnt not have much leverage when you consider that. According to the Israeli Military, 97 percent of the rockets fired into israel over the last 3 days have been intercepted by israels iron dome system. And all of the fatalities and injuries have been in gaza. There has been an indication all day that the Israeli Government does not want this operation to become a protracted one. The interim Prime Minister. Yeah. Your la pete had called it an extraordinary achievement that most, if not all of the Senior Leadership of islamic, she had had been eliminated. And there was also a feeling that a kind of divide had been created between Islamic Jihad and hamas, which governs garza because hamas has remained on the sidelines for throughout the last 3 days. A repeat had said that this from the beginning was to target Islamic Jihad, the operation was to thwart an attack on israel, and that there was no intention of this escalating into a wider event. However, the longer this goes on, the greater the concern that hamas may enter the fray was were seeing the death toll in pa garza has increased this evening. 5 children were were killed in a cemetery and jap, aaliyah. And i, i will say that although the Israeli Military has not gotten back to us, that is really military is reporting, excuse me, is really media is reporting that the blame falls on his la mac. She had that apparently this is the result of another errand rocket on saturday evening in the java lea, a refugee camp for children and one elderly women women were also killed. And at that time, the Israeli Military is saying that was also the result of an error rocket and it released a video earlier today proving this in any event. The pressure is only growing on israel from the International Community to hold the air strikes and to allow humanitarian assistance into gaza. All right, well leave that thanks so much and casual name. Lets bring in now francesca albanese, shes the un special repertoire on the situation of human rights in the palestinian territory. She joins us now from catania. Good to have you with us. So 1st of all, palestinians civilian casualties. A mounting there. Now, in the hundreds, when you count both those wounded and those who have been killed, are you concerned . But the laws of war are not being observed here. It occurred more than a grown sir, and that that was not being, im concerned that the all system embodied by international is not observed. And i think that this is the case, not just when there are bonding, like this is like this days. But that this is the general situation in gaza, unfortunately and, and the current bomb being and escalation is just reminding the International Community fair and just need to be to be found because war cannot be used as a matter of policy in occupied palestine. Israel says it launch these strikes on friday to prevent palestinian stomachs you had from launching revenge attacks after that. Israeli raid on jeanine in the west bank can that be justified . Can these kinds of strikes be justified as preemptive strikes . As these relatives call them . Look to be, to be very fair. This all issue of preventive tried preventive. Self defense is all very controversial. But my point and this is why i was so adamant about it is that these particular attacker and i can also speak of the others. But this particular attack was, was a lawful, immoral and responsible because of course he was, its clear that he was going to escalate and to trigger more violence. There are only 2 cases in which self defense his override is permitted on the international law. And when to read the volume into a talk that has been tough food which justified justify which justify it, a kind of response. So in order to, to create and to prevent further violin. Or when he took arrived by the United Nations by the Security Council. And he, hes ro neither. So this is why i said this is unlawful and also its the moral because god has suffered large scale operations derived kill was in 2009 in 2012 in 2014 in 2021. And a 15 year old child has already gone through so many words. This is immoral also because john, even before the attack was already on the brink of collapse, is that you money tare, an emergency on a, in, on a study leak on the basis. And of course, its responsible, so there is no way does can be justified. Again, the law is the last to resort in international law. Let me go. If i could, this is will be, can you mentioned that the history of the so many wars have happened in gaza . Can this cycle of violence now theyre talking about c, but even if its agreed to it had cease fire before, can this cycle of violence, this conflict really and without an end to the occupation of an end to the seed without policy has been given. Normal civilian rights and state heard, you know, the root cause is being addressed without what human Rights Groups are now calling a policy of his railey apartheid towards palestinians. Yeah, easy. I dont think that the root causes her address. I think that one of the bigger be a problem we have is that the root causes have not been addressed, and sen, termination her palestinians are entitled to. As any people or nerd is still to be realised that there is a tendency to treat garza as if it was there and as separate as standing alone. Entity a nor a garza is part and parcel of the territory that remains of historical palestine aware. Israel was created in 1914 and these territory as been under a military occupation with heavy and violent settler encroachments seems a 1967. So know that the very fact that the palestinian Self Determination is not realized is a problem. Israel cannot maintain, has no ground to maintain an entire population subjugated in prepared treaty. This is, this is the bigger issue here, an International Community, or must phase because eventually, if israel doesnt comply with the law, if israel is allowed to go ahead with impunity, it to it. It also means that the International Community has its own responsibilities that are not her effectively discharged. I thank you so much for your thoughts and analysis on that. Slightly more still ahead on the news hour, including columbia prepares to welcome its 1st left this president , gustavo petro, be sworn into office in the coming hours. And the night, maam, start from manchester, united new manager in the premier lead. Peter will have all the details in school, the path of growth. Ah, now ty ones defense, Ministry Says its detected dozens of warships and aircraft in and around the strait. China has been holding military exercises near the island for a 4th day. The drills are in response to the visit to taiwan by u. S. House speaker nancy pelosi, china deployed warships fighter jets and drones over the territory which beijing claims as its own. Taiwan is accused, the chinese army of simulating an attack. The u. S. Has called the exercises an escalation. Ukraines president is accusing moscow of Nuclear Terror after shelling at the plant and brush an occupied territory. The head of the u. Anatomic watch dog has warned damage to these upper a g. A plant could cause a Nuclear Disaster or fail groceries, calling on all parties to show restraint around the factory cave and moscow are accusing each other of firing at europes Largest Nuclear power station. Ukraine state Nuclear Power company says a worker was wounded by russian shelling on saturday. John hendrick has more from keith on the situation. The company that owns that plant, a Ukrainian Company says a Nuclear Disaster was narrowly averted when it was hit just today. That what was hit with an area with spent nuclear fuel rods, which are left in the open air to cool off. Well, theyre radioactive. And so that area was struck, but apparently not breached. So no disaster day, but the head of the i a a says that hes very concerned about the situation there. He would like to send in an International Team to secure that facility, which as you mentioned, was controlled by the russians behind the russian lines, but operated by ukrainians who have been ordered to continue operating the plant essentially at gunpoint. So its a really dicey situation there. As you said, shell today, a worker was wounded and the company says it was pure luck that something really major didnt happen when it was struck today. The interesting thing here is that we really dont know who struck it. The president of ukraine validity, lansky says that it was russia. He wants an International Investigation and he wants tougher sanctions on russia because this threatened to be a Nuclear Disaster, not just for ukraine, but for all of europe. The problem is getting people in there and trying to get the permission of the russians to actually do that. So its a particularly dicey situation with no end in sight in a country where in turnover weve had a Nuclear Disaster before. Ah, the plant is near the city of nevada, in southern ukraine. It has 6 reactors and usually generates nearly half of ukraines Nuclear Power. Russia has been shelling the town of nicole, which is across the river. On friday, ukraines Nuclear Agency said shells hit the nitrogen oxygen unit. And the high voltage power line at the plant. No radiation leaks were detected, but a reactor has been disconnected. Ukraines foreign Ministry Says a shell hitting an operational reactor could at the same impact as an atomic bomb. Natalie growth is a Nuclear Arms Control specialist who previously worked at the International Atomic energy agency. He says, it doesnt make sense for either side to shell, the Nuclear Power plant, russia to occupy and capture those that are easy, a Nuclear Power plant, i think, to provide electricity to the eastern parts of ukraine that russia has occupied at capture during this aggression against ukraine, but we really do not know what the situation is that separate the Nuclear Power plant. Why would the ukrainians shall it when they have their own people there . And then similarly, why would the russians shall it when they have best soldiers and technical experts . There really needs to be given the permission, then facilitated to send the Technical Team to find out clearly what the facts are on the ground. I was looking at the state National Regulatory inspect correct of ukraine. S. And are you that is the official regulator or licenser of Ukrainian Nuclear facilities . And the latest report on its website is from the 26th of july. They do not have any information on the current accusations being created. However, in the stress steps that were done in ukraine following fukushima, s m, i u reports that there are 4 independent high voltage power lines coming into separate power plant. There are 20 backup diesel generators that are 3 generators per reactor, plus 2 extra which just efficient for 250 hours of backup power in this hour was lost completely to the side. So again, the director general has talked about the 7 pillars of nuclear safety. However, on the website, it does say the latest update from yesterday that 2 of the 6 power plants are working. Its appalachia and there is no immediate threat of radiation leak canyons head to the poles on tuesday to vote in a closely for president ial election. The 2 front runners, ry loading and william root ho, promising to tackle widespread corruption. But critics say their roles and previous governments hit by scandal, call some doubt from their credibility. Welcome. Web reports from nairobi. This new highway running through nairobi is the most expensive road per kilometer ever built in kenya. Its initial cost of nearly 600000000. 00. Rose by about a 3rd with little explanation given by the government. Anti corruption activists say just the latest overpriced infrastructure project, enriching corrupt politicians. Most road uses a still stuck in traffic on the old road, unable to afford the tov and motorbike taxi drivers like duncan, a callo arent allowed to use it. The government of what were getting out of very much what up what the problem kenyan did you to vote in general elections on tuesday . The empty Graft Commission recommended 241 candidates be disqualified from running because of corruption. But almost all of them have been allowed to run, and it has been always questions about where he got his wealth corruptions. Candles have been the subject of many of patrick as far as political cartoons is often drawn. Both of the main contenders for president former Prime Minister ride over dinner and Deputy President William Brito will been kind implicated. And ive been part of this system that has been looting from canyon for a long time. One of the reasons why can you develop sort of a calling pace, you know, when it would be running in lots of resources actually not spent on ourselves to spend on the crop and full efficient when riley dingo was Prime Minister. Some of his family members were implicated in scandal of stolen a subsidy. Do been telling is supported. Hes the one who can fight corruption to the main kinds of corruption. Both of them. Denial of william root over school. Those may subsidies as agriculture minister. Hes also promising to fight corruption. Hes been Deputy President for the last 9 years, during which activist se corruption has ballooned as have borrowing to funded china and the money to build a new highway. One of several costly Infrastructure Projects built by the government a router and outgoing president who can yetta in the present an institutionalized was electric for every 100. 00 of, of connection debt from the thing was 20, can be its close to 56. 00. And now that can continue forever, because then it means that they didnt sufficient the money. Luckily, pay for the Public Services or more bordering is going to talk to take place. Meanwhile, candidates a promising to tackle this flooring. Cost of living. Things may get worse before they get better. The i m f ones kenya to end food and fuel subsidies to prevent upset crisis. Officials in the incoming government will expect their share of patronage. Kenya faces a massive economic challenge. Whatever the next leader does, kenyans will likely pay the price. Malcolm web al jazeera nairobi, can you go to columbia 1st, have a left. This president , he likes ghost of a petro set to be sworn in about 2 hours. Several leaders from across latin america have arrived in bogota to attend the ceremony. At ro is taking office with a promise to reshape the deeply polarized country with a long list of reforms and social programs. Scave, now to alexander m. P. S. He is live for us in bogota, says something of a turning point for columbia, right . Ah, absolutely, thats the way most people here feel this government to be. Theres a huge expectations. Some people fear what this government will be will will mean what they will try to do. Its bay ambitious program. So back for the 10th of thousands of people that are here in downtown book that today participating. And this ceremony, this is a day of rejoicing that they have festivity. Traditionally it now durations events in columbia and new governments are very formal, even somber affairs, with just a few 100 b i. B guests invited to the ceremony. In this case, instead that a tire downtown has been filled with big screens with stages with live music. There have been demonstrations of all the different, popular music, the from columbia, and just a lot. A lot of people here who want to be president , for they now gratian of the 1st, the left, the president of columbia. Obviously, given that the expectations are so high, the question is, if this government will indeed be able to fulfill the expectations of so many columbia, so many reforms that is promising to put in place. If you talk to observers here, theyll tell you that the government will have to prioritize and decide what the most important thing to do will be. But that obviously will start tomorrow that the expectations is that the in the coming months, the government of course have a better will try to put in place a very ambitious facts are form to be able to find the many social programs that it has that promise it will be difficult though, because it will face a very complicated economic situation, both being here at home and internationally. Inflation is at that 20 years high. And also the truth is that that the government will face a major deficit left by the outgoing government. Avi van do okay. Obviously, given the fact that the country had to deal with them, and in the aftermath of a bank of li, can it situation for better about one with huge expectations, given the fact that at that for the 1st time i left, this government will be empowering columbia that is kind of a big deal. Thank so much show center empathy, lead spring in now. A restaurant bo, hes a political analyst and rank sort of the conflict analysis resource center, joins us now from bogota. Good to have you with us. So is this going to represent a massive change in politics as we know it in columbia . This, that seems to be the expectation, right . Yes, huge expectations, but it will be a big change. I mean, just the groups of interest are going to be represented in these government. The 1st dormant from the left that we have in columbia, it from a non Traditional Party leader, but also one that will have a wider Equality Coalition in eagle river that has been able to assemble over the past month and which will give him the opportunity of bringing reforms are radical different reforms to policy areas that we have not seen before in the economic areas, social policy, but also environmental policy, which is one of the key aspects of these new government. How difficult is going to be for the president to deliver and all those promises hes got to alleviate poverty on the one hand for example, but hes also got to protect the environment by shutting down one of the biggest earners for the, the economy, or at least restricting in the oil industry, it will be very expensive for the colombian economy to abandon the production of oil and gas one or who are main errors of hard currency. Most likely, those changes will take time, will take maybe decades, and then it will lead to move towards, for example, the shows that he can deliver their rapidly like drug legalization. Columbia. As you know, is one of the main exporters of coal gain to the world. Maybe that will be an area in the end. He will make rapid changes. And that will have a huge impact in terms of the International Relations of colombia to the world, especially to the United States. One of our main allies and stalwart support is for colombian government. Im glad you mentioned foreign relations. What sort of indications have we had since his election victory as to which direction hell take the country when it comes to foreign alliances and relations, especially with the us very likely to get closer to the government of argentina, chile, new mexico. Also, governments from the last or less leaning governments and broadly beast and seen itself from the United States. Very many people are expecting to find a re approach meant, especially in terms of a drug, anti drug and d trafficking policies, from colombia. But he will have, well have to see what it will be the actual point of contact we the United States, one of them. And this is very important, is that what will be the role of columbia in the relationship with venezuela government . The government of federal has already assumed that we are going to rejoin that were going to restart the blow about the relations and opened the border with venezuela to the trade. But well have to see how that will square up to the negotiation with the opposition to minute minute origin. That has been leading by the government of norway. All right, thanks so much for your analysis. Thank you. Cilla had an al jazeera, we hear from a mother in garza, our house.

For our best prices, hulu. Ah, theyre watching al jazeera time. To recap on laceys developments in gaza and israel. Bra reports of an imminent seas. Foreign garza between israel and palestinian Islamic Jihad, egyptian mediators say both sides have agreed to a truce, but theres been no confirmation of that from either the palestinians. All the israelis slimy you had as launched. A lodge barrage of around 100. 00 missiles towards southern israel, sirens and explosions have been heard of the cities including color. Vive web people, as you can see here ran from the beach. And on saturday, a 2nd commander from his stomach, you had, which is well says it was targeting was killed, but civilians including women and children, are also among 41. 00 killed and hundreds injured. And a few hours ago, more than 1700. 00 ultra nationalist israelis added detentions by entering the along some of compound and occupied east jerusalem. It was on the annual day of fasting. On the no say it reports from garza on the days events. Israel has carried out the 3rd day of air rates of the guards. This tread mashaila struck refugee camps and destroyed apartment buildings. Eye witnesses say the attacks took place without warning, no ins, holy wetness as the we were praying. Suddenly we found a miss, silent, our home. We didnt know where it hit us from. It was so sudden, little rock. Israel says the target was palestinian Islamic Jihad and the 2 of the armed groups leaders have been killed. Handed mon suit, a Senior Member of a could brigade, the groups motor wing was killed in rafa near the addiction border. Israel also, essays, tunnels. Ill post rocket launch sites and weapons stores have been destroyed. Islamic jihad responded by firing rocket still with israel. Symbol which were shot down by the i dont miss i defense system. Other smaller power groups are also believe to have fire rocky Different Countries in organizations have condensed the violence, the un humanitarian coordinator for gaza. Shes gravely concerned by the civilian death is in injury. While another un official says the israeli attacks are not just legal, but you are responsible and that god is on the verge of the humanitarian crisis. With border crossing, still chrome, no humanitarian or medical aid is able to enter, caused a fuel shortage, has already forced the soul power plant to shut down and hospitals are warning of dire consequences. If assistance does not arrive soon, you may see it. Al jazeera garza city and garza have been sharing their experiences on social media. One mother in man bashir posted a video online of a small song while the above bottom was underway. Me the early, as she told al jazeera about the impact, the fighting is having on a family. Its overwhelming, actually most of the time. And were trying our best actually for the 1st time we had, we brought in coloring for their faces or so. So that we try to distract them because we know that once they ask questions, we dont have answers or, or we can answer them. But we know in their eyes that they know that we are liars. Ive been telling them that it is fireworks. Ive been telling them that people are happy that that, that because there have been a High School Graduation few days ago. So its kind of similar but the, the sounds are louder. So after while i started feeling that they dont believe me, but they dont want to say it. But this is a new to me because now i have a baby girl. This is different from the last word because the scale is 6 months old. This is our 1st aggression and i dont have my husband, my husband is doing an m, a in, in wyoming, and when in wyoming in the city. So im all here by my own. And i know that my situation is not in combat. The other mother who has waking up finding they are homeless, finding that their, their, their, their children are buried under durable, who has, who have lost many children. I dont think that my kids have even recovered from the last for her. And to tell you the truth, at some point, i started to feel that my kids and the garzon children are some kind of an entertainment petition for the world. I mean, i was trending the last word. Im trending this for so. But what then cases are in besides tool to plan a warren to, to launch or a war like it, america supports it and nobody stops them from, from doing this herbal act and from their raising. Our children are sams almost as the Palestinian Ambassador to the United Kingdom he demands. Israel immediately stops its aggression. So much of this is father, that i term ending the israeli or salt aggression is the right term. And there has been a lot of efforts with egypt and with regional powers on of course, with International Powers to end this unprovoked assault, to this very murderous machine. And the Security Council is supposed to meet to morrow upon the request of the state of palestine and the support of key Security Council members, and are members of the of the council and the u. N. A. So we have no confirmation yet, except that the bombardment continues the targeting of civilians continues the israeli trading of our blood blood, the palestinian blood. This is just the part of starting the Election Campaign early on on goes as, as happens all the time. Politicians and israel compete who has more palestinian blood on their, on their hands. And therefore this is an opportunity for, for all of us the Palestinian People to actually unite. Because this is not an issue with garza only, this is an issue with the Palestinian People. You have reported what happened today in jerusalem. The storming over like some was the thousands. It was really illegal settlers in our more secret sites. They occupied city of jerusalem. This is an or an all out aggression by israel assault by israel on us everywhere. Wherever we are with it in the west bank, with orange, also living garza or even refugees outside cuba has appealed for International Help to fight a fire thats burning out of control at an old depot. The blaze at the Storage Facility in the city of mountains us was caused by a lightning strike. At least one person has died, a more than a 120 the will have been injured. 17 Fire Fighters, missing mexican venezuela, have sent support cruise, elect periods. You know, its a complex situation. Experience says that the tank must use up all the fuel inside. We are making every effort with International Assistance to shorten the time. But we cant know when the fire will stop. Hello. At augustin has mall from the times us in the north of cuba. As you can see right behind me, theres a huge plume of smoke coming out from one of the tanks that still burnings. There are 8 that called super time, because each of which has approximately 50000. 00 kill him at trick tons of petroleum. To avoid exploded the 17 firefighters one as being from the other 16. Im missing. I think its safe to say the expectation is very low. That they are alive because they will just meet away from one of those times trying to dance it with water to stop it exploding. When it exploded. So these people will have been incinerated. The president of cuba met today with family members of those who are still not confronted. Missing cuba, aust serenade is a very proud country. This is a country that doesnt ask for a dismiss. It really, really needs it. Boy, does it need it . They are low on the Technical Technology and also experience in dealing with this. Mostly this is a biggest industrial buyer this, this countries ever faced. The venezuelan firefighters on the mexican specialists arrived hours ago and they, they not only have with them the know how to deal with this, you know, big Oil Producing nations. But they also have technology and that crucially the materials that are needed to put out fires of this magnitude you are santas, is battling to pass president joe biden, 740000000000. 00 economic package will if past the bill known as the inflation reduction acts, we the largest Climate Investment in american history, much of the money will come from the tax reforms including a new 15 percent minimum tax on large corporations.

And that window, basically a disrupt, the deal that was a cobbled together in the past week between another democratic senator joe mansion and the democratic leadership.
