On israels border with gaza, feels like a time capsule stuck in the horrors of october 7. Hamas broke in at dawn. They killed and took Hostage A Quarter of the 400 or so israelis who lived here. Sayed was laying there dead, nearthere. You could see that he was trying to hold the door closed, and actually, the door was locked. The army opened the door later. Ron behat and his family survived in their safe room. Then he recovered dead friends and neighbours, some in pieces. In this house, you know, that was the first time that we realised that we are not looking for only bodies, because the beginning, you know, we took a lot of bodies. The interrupted, terminated lives laundry neatly folded the night before the attack give israelis a sense of moral clarity. Going around this place, you can understand why israelis believe very strongly that theyre fighting a just war in gaza. Of course, their allies feel the same. Their quarrel is with the methods that israel has been using, that have cost so many innocent palestinian lives, and as for the family who lived here in this house, theyre dead. Israelis support the war. Many are also back on the streets, demanding the resignation of the Prime Minister. Netanyahus stated war aims total victory over hamas, as well as freeing the hostages have not been achieved. The demonstrators say thats because they come second to his own political survival. Nava rosalio leads a movement called shame. Netanyahu has an interest to lengthen the war as much as he can, because as long as the war is still going on, he can say that now is not the time to new elections. Now is not the time to look for who is responsible, which is he. Everyone here faces uncertainty, sometimes fear and a forbidding future. Israelis and palestinians look at each other with horror since october 7. The old city ofjerusalem, the heart of their conflict, has been mostly quiet during ramadan. Many palestinians under 55 need Police Permission to join the crowds moving to the holy mosque. Palestinians were already convinced that their lack of rights under Israeli Occupation amounted to apartheid. Israel denies that allegation, and another considered plausible by the world court that it is committing genocide in gaza. Both sides believe that the other has carried out inhuman, unforgivable crimes since october 7. New wounds on a century of scars. Dimitri diliani, a Palestinian Christian activist, says israelis are in denial. Killing children is killing children. It doesnt matter who is the child thats being killed, it doesnt matter who is doing the killing. I do sympathise with the holocaust. I recognise the holocaust. But that does not mean a green light for israel to commit genocide against my people or any other people. This is ramallah on the west bank. Polls show palestinians have strong support for the hamas attacks, but like most israelis, they deny that their side commits atrocities. What happened on october 7 wasjust one, one. Whats the word . One thing that happened in a long. Many years of oppression. So, again, im going to repeat myself that our struggle will continue until we are free. Thats what any people under occupation, under oppression, under colonial settlers will do. We can report first hand here on the occupied west bank, just as we can from israel. But foreign journalists are not allowed into gaza, by israel or egypt. The bbc commissioned a palestinian freelance in Rafah To Film Ii Year old rima getting food for her family. Translation if we get there early, we get some food. But if were too late, the food runs out, so we wont have anything to eat. The food we bring is only enough for one meal. This has become a daily ritual for the children, like rima, who fled to this part of rafah with theirfamilies. Much less aid reaches northern gaza, where famine is imminent. Israel, under us pressure, is letting more food in, but its also insisting that it cant finish off hamas without attacking this town, where 1. 4 million palestinians, including rima, are sheltering. She says getting her family food makes her happy. But rimas pot is all seven people have to eat in a single day. Six months on, the gaza war is not over. A wider middle east war threatens. This could get worse. Jeremy bowen there are. The anniversary of the hamas attacks of october 7 also marks six months of captivity for the 133 people still believed to be held hostage in gaza. Theirfamily members want Benjamin Netanyahu to make a deal to free them. Those calls are coming not only from israel, but those in the jewish diaspora. Six months in, frustration is mounting. On sunday, here in washington, protesters gathered at the lincoln memorial. Their message bring them home. 0ne one of the hostages still believe to be a give, i spoke to his fatherjonathan to understand how his family continues to cope the uncertainty. Its a living nightmare, quite honestly, for us. Both our immediate family, as well as our kibbutz family. We are from kibbutz oz, where that morning exactly six months ago hundreds of palestinian terrorists and looters descended on our kibbutz, leaving behind a0 murdered civilians, 80 hostages were taken from our community, our homes destroyed, looted and our way of life all but eradicated. So every morning that we get up, we have to sort of put our lives together again. And all of this of course is the background for our fear about the fate of our loved ones, including my son. Have you heard anything about your sons fate . Do you know if he is still alive or what kind of condition he might be in . The only thing we know is that in the end of november, early december, about 100 hostages of the total 240 were released. Of those 100 released hostages, about a0 were from our kibbutz community, and are a number of them, women and teenagers, had seen my son and other people from our community in the tunnels under gaza. We know that in the end of november, therefore, that he was alive, he was wounded, but we have heard absolutely nothing since then, and that has been the same for all of the other hostages. So the last sign of life we had was in the end of november, and we already knew that the conditions in the tunnels were horrific for those people who remain there. You were at a rally in washington, calling for the release of the hostages. You have been meeting with some lawmakers. What is your message for americans and for the Us Government . Well, my message here to your audience and my message today at the rally, on the footsteps of the lincoln memorial, is that and it is not just for us lawmakers, it is for all parties involved, so the intermediaries, if � sthat the United States, egypt, qatar, i mean, theres not much to be said for hamas, but for my government as well in israel that the first step for any kind of future for israelis and palestinians to stop the cycle of violence and cruelty is to get our hostages back. That is the first step. Without that, this war doesnt end, and without that, i fear that this Multi Generational, what is already a Multi Generational conflict that only grows hatred, there are no victories here. We can only begin to heal on both sides of the border with gaza if the hostages are released from hamas captivity. Without that, there really is no future. So i would implore not just the Us Government, but moreso the intermediaries from the middle east to do all that they must to get hamas to release these hostages. Last question for you. There have been large protests in israel as well, many of them critical of the israeli government. How much confidence do you have in Prime Minister netanyahu to bring your son home . It is not a question of my confidence or anyone elses, it is his moral, National Responsibility to get them home, or as many of them who are still alive, to get them home and the bodies of those that we know already are dead. The southern part of israel was abandoned by our government on october 7. Oursons, our daughters, fathers, mothers, children were sacrificed on that day. It is utterly incomprehensible and unacceptable that our government, whomever is seated in the government, would allow those who are still left behind, those 133, 134, to die in hamas captivity. We were notified yesterday of one of our people from near our kibbutz, who was found dead by israeli troops, and we know for sure that he was alive, he was forced to record the Hostage Videos by hamas and the islamichhad. We know he was alive. He died in captivity. Therefore, our demand of our government, without giving out grades, our demand is that it do all that it must to get the hostages home. It we will be painful. Negotiating with a Terrorist Organisation is a painful thing, but there doesnt seem to be any other alternative to get them home alive. I think we can all agree that hamas must be eradicated, but that must not must not come with the sacrifice of those people who have already been sacrificed once by our government. Jonathan, whose son is one of those still being held hostage by hamas now, six months on, we thank you very much forjoining us. Representatives of hamas, the United States had Ceasefire Talks in cairo. The director of the cia is seen here meeting with egypts president.

Sunday marks 30 years since one of the most brutal episodes in world history. Genocide in rwanda. In 100 days in 1994, extremist killed 800,000 people during a Commemoration Ceremony in the capital, the rwandan president said the International Community had failed his country. Earlier i spoke to one of the survivors of that genocide who is also the founder of the genocide foundation. You are nine years old when this took place and you lost your parents, six of your siblings, you lost your parents, six of yoursiblings, most you lost your parents, six of your siblings, most of your extended family. How have you been able to deal with that . Is it even possible to come to terms with what happened . It has been difficult. It has been 30 years to the worlds but for those of us who lived through the genocide it may as well have been yesterday because the memories of that time, the horrific memories and images and lots of our families and friends and neighbours living in an environment where each day we did not know if we would survive to see the next day, these are memories that even 30 years later are part of our lives. I always tell people that genocide is something that you cannot get over. So saying that time heals, i believe it is not true. Time alone does not heal. Healing is a journey and when you speak to survivors in their 80s now they will tell you that the memories are still very real. So it is an ongoing battle for survivors who continue to fight. Battle for survivors who continue to fight. And what about rwanda continue to fight. And what about rwanda itself continue to fight. And what about rwanda itself is continue to fight. And what about rwanda itself is a about rwanda itself is a country . These are deep wounds there. How effectively do you think it has been able to deal with that and move forward now three decades old . I with that and move forward now three decades old . Three decades old . I think there has three decades old . I think there has been three decades old . I think. There has been tremendous progress. You cannot deny that. They have made tremendous progress in terms of political progress, economically, socially. We have a government that has been very much committed to coexistence between all of the rwandan citizens. The 1994 genocide against the tutsi did not happen overnight. It came from years of propaganda and indoctrination, from years of a culture where it was made ok for tutsis to be killed and with impunity. Prior to the genocide we had a government that was very much committed to divisive politics which monopolised power by pitting one group of citizens against another group of citizens and fortunately since the genocide we have added government, as we set that is committed to the needs of rwandans. That everyone is a rwandan who has more in common than differences. I save it as long as we have a leadership committed to peaceful coexistence than the future of rwanda is bright. But as a country that has gone through genocide, any post genocide country is always a little vigilant because the idea of genocide is not an ideology that dies overnight. So there is again a constant need to remind the people of rwanda that acceptance of all rwandans is the only thing that will ensure an peaceful future. Is the only thing that will ensure an peacefulfuture. Hate motivated violence is not good, it only leads to death and destruction and given what happened in 1994, rwandans generally wanted to make sure that they would never sink back. ,. that they would never sink back. ,. . , that they would never sink back. ,. , back. Since 1994 and looking. Loball back. Since 1994 and looking globally how back. Since 1994 and looking globally how much back. Since 1994 and looking globally how much progressl back. Since 1994 and looking l globally how much progress do you think has been made to create a world where genocide will not happen again in any country . I will not happen again in any count . , ~ will not happen again in any country . Country . I would like to say that 30 years country . I would like to say that 30 years after country . I would like to say that 30 years after the that 30 years after the genocide i would like to say that lessons have been learned but unfortunately when you look at the state of the world today, hate motivated violence and extremists, we see it everywhere. Nearly every country. So of the lessons that should have been learned 30 years ago, unfortunately they have not been learned. We still live in a world where government prioritises political interest, economic interest over saving innocent civilian lives from being systematically murdered. So while there is progress in terms of education and awareness about genocide there is still very much, most government still lack the political will to prevent genocide. There is a lot of work that still needs to be done and this is why i do the work that i do with the Genocide Survivors Foundation and i am speaking to you at gain because as survivors of the genocide we lost our families. We feel motivated to use our experiences to keep speaking out about the need to do more. It speaking out about the need to do more. ,. ,. , ~ do more. It is important work. And thank do more.

The bbc has learned that hundreds of Displaced Rohingya are being conscripted from internally displaced peoples camps in by the military ready to fight against opposition groups. The militaryjunta that seized power denies using rohingya and its war against the opposition but multiple interviews with rohingyas in the kind state confirmed they are being thrown into battle. Seven years ago hundreds of thousands of rohingya were driven out of myanmar by the military. Lets get more on this with our Southeast Asia correspondentjonathan head. Jonathan, correspondent jonathan head. Jonathan, what correspondentjonathan head. Jonathan, what do we know about this conscription. Walker through some of your reporting. Walk us through. Through some of your reporting. Walk us through. Walk us through. Systematic from what walk us through. Systematic from what the walk us through. Systematic from what the rohingya walk us through. Systematic from what the rohingya we walk us through. Systematic i from what the rohingya we spoke to in rakhine are telling us. These people cannot move. They are trapped because they are viewed as non citizens, as illegal settlers even though they have lived there for generations and of course they were subject to the dreadful operation in 2017 when Tens Of Thousands died, more than 10,000. It is bizarre they are now being used by the military in its battles against other Armed Opposition. Whatever the Military Government says, the hinge and we spoke to say they were taken off fo
