12:00 am

12:01 am
and israel thousands gather intel of eve holding for the resignation of prime minister benjamin netanyahu on drilling a hole in front of the union buildings in pretoria. with it being celebrations of south africa's 1st free and democratic election. the 4th, nelson mandela and the african national congress to power. 30 years ago. i'm joined against real so with this full power, centureman must wait a little longer to clinch if the straight french title that held 2 or $33.00 drove off to frustrate the 11 time champions and spoil the policy the . so we begin this news hour in the united states where police have detained another $100.00 people, while clearing a protest camp at northeastern university in boston. the university says the protesters resorted to anti semitic slurs student demonstrations against the war on
12:02 am
does that have been spreading across the united states? but there are growing efforts by university officials and police to in the protests . it's been just over a week since students at columbia university in new york began demanding that their school divest from israel students at harvard, at georgetown at mit and george washington university. where we'll be in a minute, then began demanding the same protest spread from the northeast to campuses in michigan in texas and california. this house is 0. it has a team of correspondents covering this story across the united states. we're in atlanta, austin, new jersey. we're going to begin though with mike hannah, who is at george washington university in the federal capital. mike, what's happening there? well, this demonstration as it has been since the beginning has remained a peaceful police all stationed around here. but they all in what they describe as a monitoring capacity. the university authorities did awesome to come in to clear
12:03 am
the encampment behind me. but the police declined saying that there was no evidence of any lawbreaking, no evidence of any activity that was not at all peaceful. so this has gone peace freed throughout the day the police present, but keeping a distance. uh, the one issue is that this fence over here allowing nobody in, in order to be, you can go to university authorities believe not to swell the numbers. now i'm joined by one of the students, sabina, out to hobby. what is the primary motivation for those setting up this campaign? yeah, so that's one word. and that word is because we're here. we're here to encourage those around us to keep all eyes on that. to understand that there's a genocide going in and put pressure on those around them to stop the genocide immediately about your voice clearly from the stresses of the last few hours and
12:04 am
what is being the reaction from unit diversity or sorry to use you've been in contact with them, so the university of tories, we have been trying to negotiate, trying to talk to them. and the only response we really go in is that they want us out of here. they are not willing to listen to the needs or the wants of their students. they're not willing to listen to all of that. the only real responsive guy from the university is sending the d. c. police department here, the maryland police department here, and now subject their own g, w. police officers here. another response we got from them is putting out of these barricades. there's barricades here. there's barricades and the bach. they've cut off all access to the bathroom suited to work topic, their id cards to go to the back. groups have all but suspected they identified that simply because the students wanted to use the bathroom. and so freely we've
12:05 am
been paying for pressure by the university of no field negotiations, not us. thank you very much indeed. will they you hearing exactly what the situation is for those who are camping here in protest against israel's action in gaza. mike, before i let you go, i also want to ask you about what happened in boston at northeastern university. we opened the show with that a 100 students were arrested their to yes, indeed will at northeastern university in the course of the morning, the university authorities called in local police to remove the encampment that had been placed there. the police arrested some 100 people. we are told, but here's an important fact to the university subsequently said that those who had student ideas were released without being charged. it was only those who could not show some form of student id to actually booked. i'm charged with public press
12:06 am
pause, press 5. so that was the situation at northeastern. the university has released the statements subsequently saying that things have returned to normal. they are peaceful demonstrations as it says on going. however, the encampment, the tents that have been removed. but here, as you see at george washington university in university square, behind me, the tents remain in place. the students remain in the demonstration there and the police remain in the vicinity and what they describe as a monitoring mode. all right, we'll see how that develops then as law enforcement monitors that protest. mike, thank you very much. i go now to fill a veil. fill your at emory university in atlanta. we're so we saw a law enforcement clear a protest that was on friday. there's another protest that's uh, i believe beginning now or has just begun. i see people on the lawn behind you. what are you expecting? the quite a few people compared to before. when we spoke last time several,
12:07 am
i mean over the last hour or so, these numbers are steadily been growing. maybe it's, but it was on that. i would say it's probably at the moment, more of a gathering been a probably test, but this is probably much a peaceful, a fire, and not speed, very much sold as you, as you would buy, the organizes over social media as a peaceful of 5. it's been, you know, come along, bring a blanket, bring some food, bring something to drink, sit on the ground, make some posters, write some slogans on the floor, would sure just show you a sort of hours for peaceful night saves on also. there's a signal. good luck of police here. you know, we have had the occasional officer will buy or the occasional called dry fight over the course of the afternoon. but compared to the state, when we sold those themes and those mess arrests, the police are very much saying why i'm going to and what are the organ i organizes now? abraham who's with us. i'm just actually, it was festival. what it is you expect to happen? over the next few hours place. so we expect no police presence to be here until midnight. the very least, what we expect people to keep trickling in coming here, building science, creating posters, is talking to other, informing the community. how do you know the police?
12:08 am
when can i be any dialog dialog with them? have you spoken to? yeah, so i'm in contact with the administration who have told us that we were, we are safe on the quad until midnight after that. there are no guarantees. last night we did the same. so midnight, and we were there until the cops for us to leave. what to say, but you, if you have to put a, a, some parents what, what is it you are trying to achieve, hey, what's the end goal? we have 3 main goals, one the emory discloses it's financial investments, 2nd to m, re divest from israel and cops, city. and 3rd, that protesters who are arrested have continuous amnesty from the school. now we've seen protests much table around the country. mm hm. what kind of an encouragement you take from what kind of messages you can from. i mean there's like a world wide movement, not even across the country across the whole world. people are waking up and seeing what's happening is as in palestine and it's not acceptable. and we're going to separate, stand up and ensure that institutions did not continue to fund this of hard type and genocide. i've seen the numbers steadily driving, but this looks a lot quite some and it was last night some and even more. so today, before you've said that you will keep on protesting every day,
12:09 am
how do you expect people to keep on coming out shortly that reaches a point my people stop coming all the interest. maybe ways. gotcha. i mean, you only have like a fuse that's in the semester, but we will not rest until every divest. we will be here every single day. as long as we can maybe even longer than we are allowed to, to ensure that every lesson start demands and that they do indeed i've asked, have you guys had any conversations with the faculty is or with the officials from the university, particularly the presidential, those who are rest of the non unfortunately if and visitors not listen to us. i have, i've had conversations and before about so he's not, he has called the police on his own people and he must raise consequences for doing that type room. thanks very much for the 1st time in front of us as you very much just referring to that is greg from advisor was the president of this university. he's coming under increasing pressure with his position. so i'm saying become a bit on the handle because he is the man who said that the police were right to be here on thursday when we saw those violent as far as the rest. i'm we so there's people big arrest. the who went to the university, he said that was what caused by people who came from outside the university. and yesterday, one of the faculty say, i held
12:10 am
a motion to hold of folks have no confidence in him. so he's increasingly having to justify his position about the movement. he says he's like, yeah, it's interesting to see how university to university the leaderships engage very differently with these protests and there's, there's been confrontation with law enforcement brought in. or there's been negotiation and sort of everything in between. um, phil lavelle reporting from emory, thank you very much. we will track that they have that midnight local time deadline, as they said, john henry and sent this report from princeton university in new jersey. as universities calling police to shut down these encampments at universities across the us, the students rebuild in the same place and they build elsewhere. just went to princeton university. as in day 3, a couple of students were arrested one day one for putting up a tense because the university doesn't allow permanent structures. we talked to a professor who held class out here the other day. and he said he thought there was an irony and the fact that the university in steals values and students and then
12:11 am
punishes them for practicing those values. you know, talk about kinds and culture. i mean, this is a can shut down any discussion and really ranging discussion of history. i mean for many of these politicians of history began on this. we didn't begin on october. the 7th is we actually let to october the 7th. and this is what students want to discuss. the students risk exposure, and if they violate the university's rules, it protests and that can be expensive. it costs $57000.00 in tuition to go here to princeton university. and for many of them it's in education. they've drained of all their lives. you know, that speaks to how passionate people are about it. i mean, we're willing to put that on the line. and we also know that we have power numbers . when you look at past examples of student organizing on campus and uh, the administration historically has not a suspended or arrested student. so actually what they're doing here in some ways is unprecedented, but we're confident that if we stick together, there won't be serious ramifications in the past week alone. more than 600 students
12:12 am
have been arrested as pro chest like this one here. john henry and l g. 0, princeton, new jersey, a thousands of demonstrators have been marching and supporting how this thing is in london. a counter rally was cancelled. however, citing security concerns. but a smaller event by a group called enough is enough which supports is really action still did go ahead in london. how are we? faucet followed the marches progress from central. and so there's right, it's not the long, wide hold on destination. hyde park, as always, concerns about the latest phases of the war, and going to get the timesheet for the sake of process. this is as well the 1st box since the discovery that spray that i'll also hospital on the 1st. since the dramatic scenes we've seen at conferences and the united states, we spoke to some students here. i see a while ago. we are too proud to be doing this is bill morris,
12:13 am
this thing among the students and i think he's going to be doing is getting his friends in the whole states and are on the wrong thing for the identify. the semitism is also scheduled to be holding together at the same time. it's a cost all the safe side. so i put these points to this as well. another account that protests by a pro is row group did take place, though a group calling itself enough is enough station. and
12:14 am
a static demonstration alongside the pro palestinian march roots police concentrated outside area and cuts both protesting groups apart from each other. the pro palestinian group then ending up here in hyde park full the reilly. they say that this the 13th such and actually protest and london is the latest. but certainly not the last day and tend to continue with this action in support of gaza against the war partial is it houses 0 london. so on the ground in gaza, which is what this is all about, is really forces have killed at least $27.00 palestinians, including 10 children since saturday morning, the army target to the homes in the state of the camp in central garza. and in rough or at least 34388 palestinians have been killed since the war began to this as the message to the world is enough enough with my message to every person
12:15 am
with a conscience would every person who claims to be a human being regardless of religion, race or politics is enough on earth in gaza has had his fill of blood and the occupation. what we can do is trust that god deep will look after us. honey. my mood has more from russell, more confirmed reports of every nude, oppressive talk across the gods for merely in the eastern part of the city and the northern part of this trip. but in earlier attacks and roof, i'm sitting worth 1500000 display policy needs have been sold, raise a residential home, and the eastern part of the city was targeted and destroyed. 7 people reported killed from one family with more. people are still trapped and missing. under the rebels, we were told the families inside this residential homes were displaced families and evacuated from the northern parts and gotten a city a more reason that from the central area and the city of ton unit on a separate a tax is really military to continue to palm the central area. midland, is that about our g. com and the northern part of the compet sold. and the area
12:16 am
between why the as the and the say right, refuge account work 3 people were killed. and they are why the 9 people were killed inside a residential home. and then they'll say right, repeat, kansas themes are described by permits and civil defense. the crew is very devastating and talking level of destruction works civil defense equipment. paramedics trying to very difficult to remove these large pieces of concrete and hold. those who might have survived the attack. it had been hours since the attack happens. and the chances that these people are still alive are very, very slim right now. also, we're learning from our source on the ground and from sean you into city. the 2 brothers who happened to be journalists, were apparently our, our point and flying a drawing to document the trails of destruction and devastation caused by the ve, the military of how much the residential compound. that's an area of the western parts of ton unit city large. the designate is a safe area that was under military season. for more down to 3 weeks. these 2 brothers were killed when a drawn fired a missile, add them guns,
12:17 am
as health ministry says palestinians across the strip or drinking unsafe water. it is accusing israel of blocking shipments of chlorine use for treating water. the ministry is also unable to monitor water safety after the public health with large we was closed. officials are appealing to international humanitarian organizations to help improve sanitation, saying raw sewage and accumulating waste, pause and increasing health risk. thousands of anti government protest as have been gathered once again until a v f. as the government continues to face growing anger and discontent. demonstrators accuse there is really government of dragging out the war. they're also calling on early elections and for the prime minister benjamin netanyahu to resign. the armed wing of homos has released the video showing to is really captive held in gaza since the october 7th attacks the families of marine, the ron and keith siegel have confirmed. the identities of the 2 men were shown in
12:18 am
the video. they and other families of captive, still held in gaza, or once again demanding that mr. net. yeah, it was government reach a deal with home us for their release houses here as bernard smith has more on this from tel aviv of the video. there's like the video release by how much it pulls. there is really the 1st side of life in terms of the 7th and the vectors of pain and many of the 6 families the resulting reminder that there is any money to move to those is rarely coverages. as opposed to a 1000000 in shelter under kind of indication about typical shapes. although strongly advise it's a couple minutes. i'm sorry. are you supposed to every? and he said that every time you go to a deal,
12:19 am
the sabotage you said is there on how much a no show, no commitment to reaching a safe spot in a whole state to release out into the pressure a prime minister, benjamin ben, benjamin netanyahu. these pages gathering from the call varies. i believe that people who is deliberately fading, so at least 14 people have been injured in is really strength on the house in southern lebanon. and had the army set a target that has belong positions in the village ups, ravine to syrians or among the wounded has below. and these really army have been carrying out cross border attacks on each other. since the one goes to begin to enter the occupied westbank. now, where is really forces have shot dead to young palestinians. it happened to the
12:20 am
selim check point near jeanine. the victims were reportedly killed during fighting with soldiers. these release later prevented ambulances from reaching their bodies . same astronomy has more from ramallah and the occupied west back with regards to the incidents engineer. and we know that people have been marching in the street to protest of these deaths. now these rarely describe what happened as a firefight and were stay engaged these men and killed them with a denial even in the situation of dealing with a combat, a combatant by the is really army, the denial of life saving 1st aid, which we do understand that they let them bleed out for an hour before they allow the ambulances to arrive a common practice by the israeli military in these occupied territories. that is a violation of international law. and we saw protesting janine that followed in the aftermath of this incident. we know that there are been raids until occur him as well. the rate ended just a few hours ago this morning. no doubt, a relief for the residence of poker. and the last time we saw major operations in the refugee camp there. it was
12:21 am
a massive operation that lasted in around the area for a 3 days where they were trying to find a leader of the palestinian resistance fighters battalion. someone who still remains at lars. his death was reported wants to, does cleared from that operation until for him. turns out he was still alive, remains of thorn in the side of the israeli military. now we've also just turned in the last hour that just north and west of similar to villages are being currently rated by the israeli military bees raised carry on the numbers, the events, all the facts and figures to come out of a 10 to blend together. the death toll since the war began and gods are here in the occupied west bank is nearly 500. we've seen thousands of people entered thousands more, detained. a coalition of a groups that's trying to deliver supplies. the gaza is holding a protest and is stumble. the freedom flip, taylor coalition and it's known says 2 ships carrying 5000 tons of life, saving 8 or unable to leave because they've been de registered by getting to be so
12:22 am
the vessels operate under that countries flag and activists or accusing israel is putting pressure on the west african country houses here. as i said, bank reports from his stumble. the organizes how the press conference has central is done. both now ship concept sales without flying a flag, not 2 of those ships of flying the sides of the republic of guinea best. so now over i have to say that those blacks have been removed, including from chicago ship that has thousands of tons of age. now they say that this is a blatant need, political move, an unusual one. now organizes have the press conference and they said there's a, there was a request from the authorities in gimme a bustle for an inspection, which they said that was fine. but before the inspection had finished on friday afternoon, they were told that the flags were being removed. so those ships cannot set sale that they say the in the communications with the authorities with the destination. and the admission to garza was a reference full. so that will also about the cargo and the route,
12:23 am
which is highly unusual. they say that usually these authorities are mainly concerned with the safety and standards of the vessels, the bearing, the flags of these ships kinda upset sale at the moment. and there's no idea when they will be setting sales that some of those activists that was set to go on this mission to try to break the siege of goals and deliver that for me not to preventative and age will be returning to the home countries and some of them are very disappointed other the same, so this isn't the end that they will continue to fight time and work to get those vessels get flagged for those vessels. so they can set sail and try to break that seats and hit in istanbul, that protest taking place as a sitting document taking place full week, trying to keep a full front of people's mind. this will on garza and the front states and the fees and the this the to the still wants to set sale. now we've been speaking you after with a half and some of them. i'm not saying that any of us always complicit with. is there a long this wouldn't cause that because we have caved in the political pressure
12:24 am
organize. it said that they would continue to lift. it tries to make sure that those ships set sail, try to break the siege of garza and deliver that commanded to an age of vague data . assembled the a. let's go back now to our top story. the ongoing protests that you're us, universities against israel's war and gaza. mama, 2, toddlers, a ph. d student at cornell university. you're an organizer with the cornell coalition for mutual liberation. so you were one of those people were protesting and support of palestinians. you've been suspended by your university by cornell this week for taking part in an anti war protests on campus. joining us from new york. what happened? yes. so in the early hours of 1st day, we set up an accompaniment, which we call liberated sounds. about $430.00 our full 20 am thursday morning i am coming was established in which several thousands i made one hundreds of students joined us to we saying that we no longer have faith in the administration to be
12:25 am
a place safe for muslim students for our residents are published in students and by large, those students of color. and then those people who up the profile listing and voice, what kind of thing is students, right? no matter what, i can sorry to interrupt, but that's important. why do you say cornell is no longer a safe place for say muslim students? is there any evidence of that's a great. absolutely. so just about 2 weeks ago it was off compress bypassed by our campuses very attached to the community in the past. and i believe was who was found guilty with another student. most of them women with should job had had a job of written toughen specs that we've had death threats. we've had people, it was what brings lots of july. we've had police video and taking pictures of us while she played in the video in the most area place on campus, but other students taking pictures of west ducks us,
12:26 am
many about palestinian muslim students, how out now one can every mission for these things? i think senior yourself are these things that you have seen yourself witnessed yourself? yes, yeah, so definitely base of july, i've seen myself. so for example, we had some. right. and so for example, in october and immediacy off to october, the 7th. what happened was we had a, someone unknown to any movement and agitated, so literally posted disgusting threats to what the jews came into on campus seminary on the same page. on the same day, we had a violent draft of sexual assault, directing and talk with some women who actually jobs the ration multiple, the s b i the administer some people and to protect one community and did not do another community. okay, well that was look, that's really interesting because and, and you know that, you know, this context there being accusations of anti semitism within the student protests, this sort of has been documented. and some of it is, is, is proven to have happened of the anti semitic floors, etc. and what you're telling us is that you've seen this go both ways. so you set
12:27 am
up being camp and let's continue the story of what happened to you set up encampment because you, you no longer trust the university to keep this a safe place for muslim students. then what happened and then about 7 to the 20 am administration, walked out and said basically you have until 12, because you're no longer in policy and you know, they had that procedural aspect. all, apparently the person who had built the room did not mention in comments, even though the person whom i booked a room was unaware. this was a prior book into the incumbents. we went into negotiations with administration, administration, us for our position. our position was we have about 8 months to address the can drugs festival multiple examples, indigenous rights. we have also, as i'm going to sadler colonialism, quoting for c spy and gaza, quoting for co notes, divest for women manufacturing. and quoting for cool. now to recognize is complicity inside the colonialism here and is route quoting for academic boycotts,
12:28 am
and associates and, and partnerships. he's allowed to months, right? one of the cap and then about 7. we were told that in this you are in student compliance of tennessee. you will be removed all, you'll be subject to arrest and suspension. that was the conditions. so i paid for the hall. you had called there for a 2nd, and i'm sorry to keep interrupting this because i, i want to make sure we get the whole story. and you've shared with us the letter that you've received from cornell. you've been suspended by the way. as a result of all of this, you have been suspended from campus. you can't go to classes and can't take exams, you can't be on campus. you can't even use the cafeteria there unless you get some kind of exemption. they say they say that on the day you're describing, they told you multiple times, you were protesting in an area that is not designated and approved. there is another area that is approved and authorized for that. go to that area. they say they told you that they warned you that if you didn't comply you might be suspended
12:29 am
and that you still didn't get lie. what, what's your response to that to? um yeah, i mean the framing of the letter we can, we can disagree, right? so when it came down to moving, where they want us to move to is a place that isn't invisible. they want us to move to a place. it doesn't have to. they want us to move to a place where they can contain the people and contain the movement. i think we ought to be called quite a nuisance on campus, right? so again, in the framing of where they want us to move, we pick the place specifically for visibility and to grow and to show the student population that this is a safe space for students of color on campus where they chose. and even when they send out, they said we, we said you can move, and they give a kevin for up to one week on the time up to one week is very slippery language, right? because it doesn't say you're cheating a week saying that until we no longer deem it fit for you to be. i will tell you to leave the one that says so this is potentially very serious as a consequence for your temporarily suspended. what happens to you now? do you know?
12:30 am
i'm waiting to hear back, officially below. i do know what some of the consequences is that i will often be a semester. i might not get paid over the summer. i might have to graduate later than expected this this semester that i'm taking and i've tried to work somewhat hard to miss everything else, may not count to my degree. and i have to repeat this, that's quite a serious thing. and they target to the my understanding people who are precarious positions such as students on visas. so i wonder what makes you think that what makes you think they did that to myself that and so we have me and you have another grad walk, a colleague and come rate of mind to was also targeted is also $400.00 students. whilst the other 2 was also visible facing so it seems like the tactic we've decides what is that targeting visible people and people and prepares positions? why? i think that's the case because people, i mean, the target is full suspensions, right?
12:31 am
i've not done anything extraordinary than anyone else, something happens. there's been people who have been mean have been by my side, every step of the way as has been coming, spastic and then not targeted them. okay. all right, listen that, that's really interesting. and you know, there's been multiple cases, every case is a little bit different, but their view multiple cases of students have obviously had very serious repercussions for their involvement and protests. i would point out that core no, in the letter they sent, you say that they that i mean it implies that one of the reasons this is happening to you is because you were a representative of the participants at the process. i understand you disagree with the, with the, with the language and with what's happening, but i have to point that out. mama do talk. thank you very much for your time today . thank you. are still ahead on alice's 0. ukraine and russia target each other's energy facilities in cross border violence and on control against the drug gangs in ecuador. but is the president using the surgeon violence as
12:32 am
a springboard for re election? also, raphael, no doubt gets the biggest when, if he's come back so far as he beats the top 20 player for the 1st time and nearly 2 years joe gunther off. so we'll have a sports later this out. the, the now, over the last week, the weather patton's gone to clockwise about 90 degrees. such that now will the rate is coming out through western europe. and the middle of europe niece in europe is rather carton, actually warming up with temperatures into the low twenty's. this reading could be significant with send a storm warnings on stuff they probably transferring to the east during sunday, readings preferring spaces to cold enough for a bit of snow up in the po renee, using the high ground of the old and spain. and then the circulation and then all see means pretty pull weather for eastern scuffle,
12:33 am
but this is all nice and warm and actually gets warmer. his baltic states and even scans. and they have here for the next day or so. but if you happen to be thinking, if there are the holidays in, for example, the small items that use to spain, maybe you should think again, mondays know barcode that he'd spend the story in this a hell in africa throughout the last 2 or 3 weeks. and he still is, look at these temperatures, 45, close to bundles, 38, there was an all show breeze at 10, so just bonds. you would also get halter up to about $39.00 or 40 well above average. so it's pretty wide spread throughout this a how there is right off the coast to terms of a there's been funding elsewhere in east africa. but the southern africa, though a few channels were in the full cross drive, is prevalent of the examination. being to of today's headlines, i wish i had the word word to describe what setting the agenda for tomorrow's
12:34 am
discussions right now. if you're on campus talking about the site, you are being called anti semitic and a supporter of care international filmmakers and will cross journalist bring programs to enforce and inspire to options await us in the immediate future by the prices for climate revolution. on alger 0, humanity is open, the gates of hell into seats is having orlando's effects. as the world discusses how to reduce emissions. supposing an existential threat to humanity, a new oil rush is displacing. you've got the people in power investigates. the relationship between the mikey oil giants of the global notes, and the developing nations of the global south. crude mistake, part 2 of 200 jersey to the
12:35 am
the you watching else a 0 reminder of our headlines this, our us police have detained about a 100 people while clearing a protest camp at northeastern university in boston, student demonstrations against the war on guns that had been spreading across the united states is really a taxing guys that have killed at least 27 palestinians, including 10 children. the military bombed homes in the state up camp and the rough and the thousands of anti government protesters have been gathering once again in tel aviv. as these really, governments continues to face growing angry and discontent. the south africa is marking 30 years since its historic 1st democratic election in 1994, which mark the end of a part 8, president civil around
