see says n y u has been trying to silence pro palestinian. the police is since october. there is an obvious bias amongst the political leads and the leads of this country and in the universities against palestinian lives. or let us say it's but by this time exception palestinian live do not matter as much as is really lives. so the president of the university never use the word garza or genocide in all of the email exchanges that you sent. but of course the hostages in israel and the safety and so on and so forth. but it is a bias and it's also the corporatization of higher education, whereby university administrators are answerable and concerned about donors and boards of trustees, but are not concerned about faculty and students. the fact that they are willing to call the police to quash pro talestine sentiments just tells you who's side they stand on. they would never call the police to colacho pro is a broad as,
7:10 am
for example, since october the university has tried whenever students for just as in palestine, try to have a room to show film or to have something the anniversary says all for security purposes, we cannot have that and also there used to be 2 spots on campus where usually students want to express the opinion and protests and something called the camel stairs. and a building called some of those were shut down. what on the ground and gaza palestinian officials have been presenting evidence. they say prove these really been a tree carried out torture on summary executions in hong eunice. the evidence comes from some of the bodies that zoom from mass graves of the on nessa and i'll ship a hospital compounds. nearly 400 bodies have been recovered so far. sorry. assume report some rough and southern gaza. good. good. this mother's creams evidence the moments before it sounds body was pulled from

7:12 am
i believe it also has approximately 10 bodies were found with their hands tied. i mean each for the forensic examination, for 20 bodies, for people we think might have been buried alive. they are asking for an independent investigation to check the findings and document them. the is where the military dismiss accusations it's false is buried bodies before the winter to come to compound as baseless. here's where the troops have pulled out of gauze to main hospitals. in recent weeks, civil defense crews lights. i dug up those of corpses from 2 mass graves and the she felt medical center in gauze of 61. at least 392 buddies wed discovered into 3 different sites on the grounds of nicer hospital. more than half of them have yet to be identified. lunging if somebody is in constant english by god, i can no longer bear it. every day. i come here in search since the day he went missing . and every day i come 2 or 3 times to search please,
7:13 am
whoever knows any information about him. she told me, is he alive or was he taken by these readings or anything? and now the u. s. is joining quotes from the using the you and demanding an explanation from israel cooling the discoveries deeply disturbing goal is a civil defense has asked for an independent investigation. come next, a delegation, specializing forensic analysis. since most of going as facilities have been destroyed, they are hoping to find the full image about what happened during, as well as raging us or hospital. i'm to give the families of those being killed. the answer is there. we're looking for. tarry cabassos the out just the euro roof on palestine. the united nation says it's important to preserve forensic evidence when investigating mass graves and goes up. that's off to the civil defense back hold for an independent investigation. and to what happened the last, the hospital in con eunice, i'll just say what's questions? somebody was up to you and with steph,
7:14 am
i'm to generate the spokesman for the un secretary general and asked about what comes next. what should they do with that information? they say they need the forensic examination. where should they go for this? what would you, what would you advise on? i think it is important, or excuse me, the circumstances to ensure that any potential evidence is kept in a way that is not compromised. we've called for an international investigation how that will take place. it's unclear at this time. there are certain bought parts of this organization that have the authority to do that shit. parts of the organization. do you think can be of how well, i mean, there's definitely investigate traffic and we looked at those very right there, there legislative bodies of this organization that could create and call for an international investigation that has yet to happen. in the meantime,

7:16 am
across the us on eunice. if that happens to drop the 10s of thousands of people will die. if that happens in rafa, hundreds of thousands of people will be displaced again, more misery, more needs that we will need to have to try and resolve and meet this. is there any forces that arrested 3 palestinian children of the jealous own refugee camp, which is north of ramallah in the occupied westbank? the children ranging from $10.00 to $13.00, rested near a school run by the un. is really military. it can be seen forcing them to board administrative vehicles elsewhere on the outside, westbank funeral has been held for a palestinian teenager who was killed by his riley forces. no one has carried the body of 16 year old holland slim on outlook through the streets of geneva, shots in the chest during his reign. you're right in ramallah. 8500 palestinians have been killed in the off by the most bank and gaza again. for

7:19 am
in a race against india is newman. walter shorts is an engineer turn. the water conservationist takes on cities. that was one lake at the time. catching the rain in india that makes a lie, a witness documentary on that just to get out the book and back in watching out. just a real quick reminder about top stories here. this, our students and faculty members from universities across the united states are continuing to protect the universities caught financial ties with israel by
7:20 am
visiting companies base. right. and i was giving you an official 7 presenting evidence base i proves these really ministry counter torture summary executions in hong units. the evidence comes from some of the buddies were coming from mass graves, vanessa and i should the hospital nearly 400 bucks. a belgium that some of these really invested out and off to an 8 was killed in front of a 33 year old. i tell him about 97 year old son. remember the casualties called on his radio strike. he was part of belgium development agent. that's in the gulf that you a section of state and to me bring kind of has met the chinese phone minutes, don't one in beijing, the visit is seen as an attempt to stabilize relations between the 2 superpowers. us trade restrictions on china as well as ministry rivalry around the south china sea and taiwan. apple didn't to potentially, well, i'll just say it was katrina, you joins us live from beijing, katrina,
7:21 am
so one of the chinese fund minutes don't want erase. so 5, and what is china? one from these meetings that the full, the, me things the so i'm going behind closed doors, but according to read out from the chinese side, ends and comments made by wong e at the beginning of the tools. trying to really hard side link and visit. we'll inject some positivity into us trying to ties the once per ton of what it refers to as to san francisco vision with president star biden and cheating met last year and in the us and agreed to stabilize this very important relationship. but when you was that there are increasing negative factors that threatened to trigger a downward spiral in the ties, he said that agent legitimate rights are being unreasonably suppressed by the us on a number of fronts. and that the us is a desire to put things back on track this in service either as being tested. but i think if you look at the language from either besides, really the difficulty is underscore,
7:22 am
the high difference of 2 sides seem to be approaching this job was used by badging such as should future when, when, when it comes to this relationship. but on the other side from washington, this is clearly a rivalry, and they talked about managing competition and ahead of the us presidential elections in november. there is certainly no appetite for caring. soft sunday, james. yeah, and there are many issues. katrina that both sides disagree on is any progress been likely to them. they both sides have been down playing any expectations for sort of breaks through saying that this is not really about concrete outcomes of this is about deepening dialogue and what blinking has called the importance of face to face diplomacy. and as you mentioned, unfortunately, there is a very long list of disagreements and for a short list of areas where there is any consensus. and one of the issues that blinking will raise or has raised during his trip is ukraine. the us as a curious china of what it says is supporting rushes, defense, industrial base,
7:23 am
fire supplied lead from technology to aid and rushes will f, as in frank. that aging denies the saying that his relationship with us has nothing to do with the war. and also the aging has certain nor appetite or no willingness at all to pull back from what it's called a rump soul of relationship with moscow. and another flesh planes is tie what we've had this week, the us senate boards possible for an aide package which includes $8000000000.00 to go towards the washington line is so cold aggression in the, in the pacific and a large chunk of that, we'll go towards the tie when these military digits are these were chinese invasion and this is infuriated badging. badging is a time and time again, time on is a red line issue because the concert is the so for a while and chinese territory. and last night we got fentanyl as well. lincoln really was trying to show more progresses corporation to stem the tide of fentanyl into the us. but us officials that actually accuse trying to be part of the
7:24 am
original price is by subsidizing the export of pretests of kevin. all right, that katrina your life as the invasion. katrina, thank you to india now where the 2nd of these 7 phase general election is taking place across the 13 states. many a 1000000000 people are eligible to cost ballots during the 6th week of voting, which started last friday. the issue of citizenship is critical in constituents, he's going to the po and the northeastern state of asylum. the b j. p government has passed a controversial based on religious as well. the indian government has failed to give these as devout as heroes correspondence to report on this story. therefore, we're covering the election from outside the country when they consume show examples for more than a decade. now, lots come on monday that has been fighting to prove he's an engine citizen. the daily bridge worker was declared to 4 know by 5, you know, in india is northeastern state or for some in 2016. since then. he's been for years

a dish and focused on this for 2014. but it excludes muslims from these countries, citizenship and this is a contribution issue, as it seems, rates of migrations, of both hindus and muslims. it's now dividing voltages on f, snake and religious grounds, as well as the minority most slim community is concerned. it's in know that if they have been creating a negative and negative is this is that they are not part of the indies, enough scouts. so it is good lot of police pull right zation. when you see it from the perspective of electronic dynamics, how much more than 4 years after the bins of approval in parliament, the government has implemented just ahead of this is general election. the problem is to move in the body is seeking a system. the passage of the low let to violent protest in 2019 with critics
