crime host oldenburg is promising a wide range of measures to continually support ukraine at this foreign ministers meeting. there are a lot of plans on the table, but of course this is an organization of alliance of 30 states. in which consensus is the rule. not everyone agrees, not all the states agree that military aid should be given to ukraine. so you have coalitions of the willing, so to speak, that will be pledges of non leaf laid by nato itself, but that will also be patches of actual military aid by individual states. the major issue right now is as you heard in that clip, the winterized zation of this war, the use of the cold as a weapon by russia. targeted attacks. busy on the power infrastructure in the country. blackouts right across ukraine and also heating going to not no heating for people. there is a humanitarian emergency that's getting stronger by the day. now the has been already indications from the united states. anthony blink and the secretary of state that so he's, hey, matt, only on monday nights with dimitra cooler bob, the foreign minister of ukraine. apparently they are going to be putting a whole series of measures together to try to get the power back in ukraine equipment, going to be taken into ukraine to try to get the system going again. that the attacks are mainly on the substations. electrical substations which have reach the virtually no protection around them, and that is a weak spot, whether they'll get around that or not. is unclear of france and germany are also pledging non lethal aid to get more generators into the country. large numbers of generators need to be there is a desperate need also, at, for better air defense. there is a whole range of weaponry available, but there is resistance by some states about deploying them within ukraine. and that is a major issue that's going to be discussed over the coming 48 hours. there's also a pledge by night so that they'll continue to keep reinforcing a states like romania, like poland have a large part of the eastern flank border. to actually deal with this, we went to 2 of the butcher base, the main remaining air base to take a look at what's going on. romania is building its defenses at a fast rate. here a transformation of its main air base is underway. u. s. f. 16 aircraft have replaced outdated former soviet megs only 17 f sixteens for now, but $32.00 more on the way everything is under pressure. so we were a timely miti though. then we fight to again, the 2nd. we have a lot of mission runnings, and this is all the missions are focused on giving us more security in a safer environment. osi, we are defined only in a space and over over contributing to the nato security. and though it is a big girl, it's an important through a time, but we are going what we are prepared to do everything by every day, he means the coordination with other nato forces policing the airspace and 24 hour standby for any incidence descends to the skies above nato's eastern flank has never been so intense nato faces a colossal challenge. not just in the air on the ground to russia would call this escalation. nato prefers the word deterrents here, u. s. and romanian forces on an exercise. recently, these maneuvers came only a week after a stray ukrainian air defense miss isle crossed the border, exploding and poland, killing 2 people. germany has offered patriot missiles systems to defend polish air space. poland wants the systems to be positioned on the ukranian side of the border while germany doesn't appear to agree, however, increased russian attacks on ukraine's energy infrastructure. mean there's a clamoring among some nato states to give ukraine more air defenses with major power outages at a time when sub 0 temperatures are worsening. and humanitarian emergency is becoming more severe by the day president putin is now trying to use a weapon. ah, i use the winter as a weapon or war against the ukraine on this is horrific. the nato foreign ministers meeting is undoubtedly going to hear that additional advanced air defense systems are urgently needed for ukraine. along with more training in their use, andrew simmons al jazeera butcher, air base romania over chelan, says, live for us in the ukrainian capital cave. and president zalinski has, as it is going to be another wave of russian missile strikes. how are people they are preparing? it's a particular atmosphere here and care for the moments. it's not so much fear. it's anticipation if you've ever kind of prepared to take a punch to the stomach, you sort of know something of what it's like that intake of breath, that tensing of the muscles. you know, that the blow is coming is just a question of when it arrives. and how painful it's going to be for much of the capital power has been restored, at least in part after the last wave of attacks last wednesday. the different, the picture is different in different parts of the country. but yes, people are expecting the next round to come are zelinski warned on sunday that it was imminent. it didn't happen. on monday, there were all sorts of social media posts and things are that warning that russian warships had headed out into the black sea with the cruise missiles on board that sir. ah, tactical bomber strategic bombers were, were being loaded up with cruise missiles on role in russian air feels, but they haven't arrived yet the, the, the cruise missiles haven't come in yet. people have been going out to be making sure that they're stopped up with the essentials, that they have the candles are to keep light on in their apartments, that they have water for drinking or washing flushing the low, et cetera, that they have a power banks charged up and if they got a generator that's full of, of diesel, getting those little things ready that could make blackouts or outages of, of heating and water. a bit more bearable psychologically. it's about, you know, putting your brave face on having a smile, ready training yourself and others that this is something that you can endure that it's for the right cause that ukraine is fighting for it's of freedom. and it's independence on a nationwide level, on a government level. well, of course, as we've heard just then from andrew, the, the leadership is trying to make sure that ukraine from its allies, gets the things it needs to push through this winter. that if russian missiles are coming and they expect very well, as i said that they have air defense, that they can use dirt to down as many as possible. and if missiles do yet through which they always seem to birts, the power can be back on as quickly as possible with the transformers and generators and money and other assistance that is what ukraine needs. and it's crucial. okay, very chelan, sir. thank you for that update. at least to re palestinians are reported to have been killed by israeli forces and 2 separate incidents in the occupied west bank. the palestinian health ministry says dozens of others were also wounded during the raids and bait mar north of hebron. as well as ant bait rima north. from allah, the you in says, this year is on course to be the deadliest and the occupied west bank. and 16 years or bernard smith is live for us now in ramallah and benita. what is happening are where you are all behind me. ah, students from visits, university and amidst them on to stretches are the bodies of jawad and duffer. remark 21 year old daughter was an i t student here. there's 8 university he and his 22 year old brother were killed in confrontation with israeli soldiers earlier on today in a village. not far from herr, this is the funeral service funeral procession if you like, for them being held by the su by fellow students. also earlier on today, 44 year old palestinian was killed near hat. braun, again, in confrontations with israeli forces, armor reports now that there's been a ramming incidents near a security check point in the occupied west bank. another 45 year old palestinian we understand has been killed in that incident and been a debt. as we mentioned, this is the deadliest year for palestinians in the occupied westbank for a 16 years. what is the likelihood that this is just going to continue? is a $153.00 palestinians killed so far this year, the deadliest by our calculations in 16 years in the occupied west bank. and all of this has happened under and is railey government, but essentially was supposedly sort of centrist made up of a centrist coalition. this is before the most right when government in his railey history has come in to power that coalition led by benjamin netanyahu won an election earlier this month. coalition talks are ongoing, but in not government will be too far right. extreme is politicians whose goal is to serve their settler constituents. it's my been given is going to end up being the minister of national security and a better balance al smartjets will probably get the finance ministry and within the civil administration. and they control construction and infrastructure in the settlements and for palestinian. so you can imagine it's already been a very violent year with 2 individuals like that in government. that does not suggest laying the groundwork for a calming, of increasing tensions in the occupied westbank. okay. i've been at smith for us and ramallah. thank you. there's plenty more ahead on this news, al, including as we speak to human rights watch about the lack of accountability and justice for the victims of iraq's anti corruption protests in 2019 the world's largest active volcano in hawaii, erupts. for the 1st time, in nearly 40 years ah, chinese authority say they are working to minimize inconvenience caused by strict pandemic policies. after days of mass protests, mass cover 19 testing has resumed in the chinese city of shanghai. infections are increasing despite tens of millions of people being under some form of restrictions . security has also been tightened. demonstrations are rear and china, but have swelled and recent days with people taking to the streets in major cities . while additional police officers have been deployed in beijing after hundreds of people protested on sunday with the public anger was sparked by covert 19 locked downs and quarantines. but the lists of grievances has grown to include a range of frustrations. some protesters have even called on prison, the shooting pink to resign. he has just begun serving a historic 3rd term in office in another you're going to want china has been following the dynamic 0 covered policy and has been making adjustments based on the realities on the ground. as we speak, china's following the 9th version of the pandemic protocols and a 20 measures. we believe that with the leadership of the c p c. and the supports of the chinese people. i'll fight against coven 19 will be successful engine. katrina you is, and beijing worth more. the authorities have done everything. they can't. you avoid a repeat of the protest we saw in several chinese cities on the we can, we said seen a lot of police presence in all of the areas that the purchase did take place in the city. some coercive tactics being used by the police and all of this was really defended by china's foreign ministry. as we heard during their press conference earlier, they were saying that the chinese us citizens all have rights protected within the framework of the law. and instead of acknowledging any value in these protests, the chinese foreign ministry spokesperson went on to really of pivot and point blame at some foreign journalists who have been covering these protests. a little bit of effort on the side of the chinese authorities, as well as the state media to de legitimized these protests, as well as defend, continually defend china's 0 carbon policy. what had once been a point of national pride, it seems to have now become a liability press conference from china's state council. and what we so interestingly used were, was an acknowledgment of some of the mistakes made in the implementation of china's 0 carving policy. what they were saying were that they, that there had been a lack of patience, a lack of communication on the ground. also that there had been some excessive heavy handedness by some officials imposing the 0 corvette policies, and that some people had arbitrarily, or illegally expanded the scope of locked downs. 3 years after iraq's and he corruption protests many say there's still no justice for those who died during the unrest. the protesters accused the current government of making iraqis even poorer while fueling ethnic and sectarian divisions leading to more corruption. mahmoud abdul, why? he'd reports from baghdad, had you heard, he says, among all the memorabilia he has, these birds, remind him the moles till his late son, worcester far. he says he takes a care of them every day. the same way, his son used to most of our was a senior year university student of administration and economics in baghdad. he was killed by a sniper during the 2019 nationwide protest against the government. well, julia, my son was like all other ambitious protested with a revolutionary urge due to frustration. they saw sons of corrupt politicians having lots of money while they didn't have a penny oil. they were disappointed by political status and crop regime. emily created by both iran and the united states. so they developed the state of awareness and desire to make a change. 3 years ago, iraq was shaken by the largest demonstrations in its modern history crowds, mast in baghdad to her. he is queer, as people demanded jobs, better services and an into state corruption. the numbers grew and the demonstrations spread south. leading to the resignation of former prime minister adul abdul, maddie, nearly 700 protesters were killed by security forces. tens of thousands were injured. and many cases of abductions, enforced disappearances were reported. while both the current and previous governments have pledged to ensure accountability for violations and abuses linked to the demonstrations, victims, families and human rights organizations are still concerned. human rights activists accused iran bagged groups of carrying out the killings. when archaeological mir concerned authorities have deliberately concealed the identity of perpetrators which it names as a 3rd party. because some official institutions are involved in the crack down against dissident voices and others whom money polluted the protests to shoot their interests for battle. had you heard, he keeps records of people killed along with his son, including those in other provinces. he says messages have been left on the doorstep of his house, warning him to stop us. oh, this is worth remains of most of our in his family's house. his father says his sons of friends took some of his clothes to keep a memory of him. to keep alive his quest and to continue seeking justice for his death. i'm adopted. we're head algebra baghdad. well, let's bring it in, oma, sorry. he is in iraq, researcher as human rights watch. he joins us from london. thank you very much for being on this news. our now for this report, you interviewed families of those who were killed as well as survivors. can you just give us an insight into what they told you? thanks for having me. thank for covering this important issue. the crux of the report is looking at her legal accountability or lack thereof for violence against protesters who took to the streets and hundreds of thousands in the fall of 20192020. and the family that we interviewed and also victims of this violence. those who were injured and the families of those were killed insisted to us that after years of attempting to advance the cases and legal system systems, their cases have gone nowhere. as a report makes clear these cases, as they say, in arabic name, or how they put these cases to sleep. and what we found in our report is that as they seek justice, as a van, so cases is cases after initial investigative interest by the authorities in the, in suing days of particular incidents essentially go nowhere the investigations and are essentially put to sleep and go nowhere for months and now years when he took parallel kitty, me pledge to seek accountability and justice. but as you said, it hasn't happened. why do you think that there is a lack of accountability and do you see that changing? i mean, this is an important point here. the former prime minister, prime minister, must have a cover me came to power on the backs of this protest movement. right. so today on the 29th of november is the day idle abdi resigned in the face of mass protests and mass killing of the protesters which led to the government in the forming in the spring of 2020, under the former. now, former prime minister must have called them who came to power promising accountability for this violence for the massacre and the killing of these protesters. and after 2 and a half years and power essentially did not deliver this accountability. largely for one could argue a lack of political will by the plural establishment to seek justice for the very people they claim to represent. and that after promising, after promising to deliver this accountability, essentially did not. so this lack of political will. and as well as a political ation of legal cases that essentially shouldn't be politicized. oh, we see these cases going nowhere when the government expresses interest and the iraqi authorities express interest in actually seeking justice. they have been able to advance particular cases case in point to give you an example tom in january 2020. earlier this year in january, there was a massacre and the also referred to as a giblin massacre which 20 people of a single family were killed. and within days, the government had sought the perpetrators arrested them and brought them to court and arraigned them. why is it that when the government is able to do this, they can't. and yet in the cases of hundreds of protesters who were killed and tens of thousands who were injured, the government refuses to bring these cases to the courts and to advance justice for the families who've been s
