air strike on an eight center in the al-nuserat refugee camp in central gaza. the gaza health ministry says israely genocide is so far killed more than 31,300 palestinians, leaving over 73,000 others injured. reactions continue pouring in following latest israely massacre of civilians seeking aid, the palestinian resistance group hams says failure of the international community and the un to take action against israel. has given the regime a green light to commit such horrific crimes. hamas said israel's massacres of aid seekers all are part of its genocide and ethnic cleansing campaign against palestinians. the movement added us fully supports the regime and protects it from any international prosecution. hamas also held the biden administration responsible for the massacre as it openly provides the regime with the weapons it's using. it's also urged international organizations to stop israeli genocide in
8:33 am
gaza and take measures to get aid into the territory. gaza's government media office also said that israel had attacked aid seekers for a 20th straight day, adding that regime is aware of gathering places of aid seekers and deliberately targets them. a senior european union official says israel has not provided. any evidence to support allegations about under its role in operation alaxa flood back early october blocks of humanitarian aid chief janez lenarchic called under irreplaceable saying agencies reacted properly and effectively to the israeli regime's accusations. israel claims a number of unro workers took part in the hamamas anti-israel operation on october the 7th, accusations prompted regimes western backers including the us to stop funding the un
8:34 am
agency. undra has strongly denied the claim saying israel has obtained confessions from its staff under torture and deress. the palestinian authority prime minister and his cabinet submitted the resignations just a couple weeks ago, and now news has surfaced there is a replacement for the job one approved by pa president mahmoud abbas. in our explainer program, we take a closer look at the issue. the palestinian president mahmoud abbas is said to appoint muhammad mustafa as the next palestinian authority prime minister. now this comes after the former palestinian prime minister muhammad shataya resigned from office paving the way for muhammad mustafa. but who is muhammad mustafa? well, mustafa is 69 years old. he's born intokarm in the west bank. he holds a doctorate economics from george washington university. in the us, he has also worked at
8:35 am
the world bank for 15 years. other notable points of his resume, he has served as pa's deputy prime minister, the economy minister. and as abbas's economy advisor. of the close to mahmoud abbas, he is not a fata member. mustafa has also sat on the palestine liberation organization executive committee since the year 2022. now he has also served as the chairman of the palestine investment fund since 2005. this is important since he oversaw a fund with nearly a billion dollars in assets. so that's a lot of money. why is that important? not only did he oververs gaza's reconstruction. under hamas rule after earlier war between israel and hamas, mustafa will be responsible for overseing billions of dollars and expected international aid. the introduction of new prime minister is part of an effort by mahmoud abbas to reform the pa, to create a technocratic government in the west bank. mustafa himself is widely regarded
8:36 am
as an independent technocrat. he's been holding consultations with prospective cabinet members in recent weeks. the members are expected to be a group of technocrats unaffiliated with the bosses. a party, not know what a technocrat or technocratic government is, well, it's one in which the ministers are not career politicians, and they are experts in their ministerial fields, so hopefully that'll define that for you. once the technicatic government is in place, regional stakeholders will be able to move forward with plans to establish in-term committee in gaza responsible for providing civil services and internal security in the enclave, eventually govern the gaza strip, after israel's genocidal war against palestinians continues. well, there's some confusion in this stance since a muhammad mustafa has also said in the next phase uh, what he will do was he would reunite gaza and the west bank. okay, this is a direct quote,
8:37 am
this means gaza in the west bank will be one palestinian land, not separated actually by a uh border with gaza. well, the united government will perform under a reformed government comprise of new prime minister. it will be tasked with taking care of arab countries and european donors. there's also request for the pa president mahmoud abbas to transfer some of his powers to the prime minister. and finally, will muhammad mustafa get along with the israeli regime? well, check out this quote, "if we cannot remove the occupation, no reformed governments can build a good governance system." doesn't sound like he and the israely regime are on the same page. you be the judge.

8:42 am
now for the news review of this bulletin. at least three israels have been injured in an allesh stabbing operation in betkama, kiboots in the occupied palestinian territories. according to the israely media, one of the injured settlers is in critical condition and the palestinin man that carry out the operation has been killed. there is no report on the identity of the palestinin man yet. on wednesday, a 15-year-old. was killed after allegedly stabbing and wounding two israeli settlers a checkpoint outside of alqs. the back to back incident comes in at rising israeli crackdown on palestinians during the first days of the holy month of ramadan. is a palestinian scientist and author joins us from bethlehem. assad abu shark is palestinian academic and active. joining us from dublin, welcome to you both uh, we're looking at the month of ramadan and um, i'm
8:43 am
curious as to the state of affairs in the west bank, i mean this particular piece of news we had uh involving uh the incident is uh just a little, i guess snipped into how dire the situation is there, and maybe you can give us an overview, we know that over 500 palestinians have been killed, i think for the month or for the for the year 2024, about 150 or so, but uh, what are we looking at when it comes to? by was bank uh, yes indeed, the brink of explosion, there's a lot of people here that are very angry about what's going on in gaza, the starvation, the hunger and all this, the killing children, now 27 kids died in the past week for lack of food, but the west bank also is not to be forgotten, the settlers have... expanded their destruction have expanded ethnically cleansing palestinians, the soldiers are a
8:44 am
rampage, shooting palestinians, preventing us from even getting out of our ghettoes like the best and ghetto, you to move to another ghetto or another concentration camp, so the trip that used to take an hour now takes several hours if at all possible ' this this and the continued settlement expansions and the approval of the israeli government of thousands and thousands of settlement units have made the west bank boiling point. now comes ramadan of course and we have the first two three days of ramadan and tomorrow is friday, israel is preventing people from getting to aloxamos. so people are frustrated and it is not surprising that we see
8:45 am
reactions like the one you described, well as said abu shark, when you take a look at the life of uh palestinians in the west bank uh we understand that obviously on the economic side things are very dire, you have all these palestinians who have been barred from working, they don't have a permit to work inside the occupied west bank unless they do in the black market and as a result you have uh people who are in dire situation there, when you take a look at what's happening in the gaza strip, do you think the west bank risks sliding into something similar to that? yes, indeed, you see, israel is launching a unicidal war in gaza to kill and... overkill and to children, men women, everybody to get rid of the people together strip and in the same time israelshing a war of ethnic cleansing in the west bank, cantonizing the west bank, killing people, restricting their movement, building you know apartite walls,
8:46 am
humiliating people, putting thousands them in israeli jails, exceprating the land, building more settlements, you see this is this is the the the type of treatment that israel give to the palestinans, that is the israel on the destruction, utter destruction of the palestinian of the palestinians, wherever they might be in historic palestine, whether they are in jerusalem, in bethlehem, the west bank, nablus and hebron, whatever, in the west bank in gaza in 194. 48 areas wherever this is the science project which is beant on the destruction of the palestinian people using psychological warfare, using propaganda war, using genocidal war, using ethnic cleansing, using collective punishment, using all sorts of maltreatment against the palestinan people, unfortunately the whole world is is not doing anything to the
8:47 am
palestinans, they are just standing eitherly by, sometimes they are issuing statements of dimination, but they are not taking serious action, they are not imposing, for example sanctions on israel, they are not kicking israel from the united nations organizations, they are not recognizing the right of self determination and right to retain for palestinian refugees, they are not recognizing our own right to live in honor and dignity in history palestine, thank you very much for that, let me thank your guest, palestinian scientist and author. uh who talked to us from bethlehem, asad abu shark, palestinian academic and activist from dublin. thank you to you both. with that we come to an end for this news review. welcome back everyone, you're watching press tv world news. nigerian muslims, like millions of
8:48 am
others, world wide are fasting in the holy month of ramadan. however, rising cost of living the country's causing. significant challenges for many nigerians during this fasting month. ramadan, sacred month in islam, is a month to cultivate self-discipline, self-control, sacrifice and empathy for those in need. breaking of the first in the evening known as iftar also fsters a sense of community and sharing as people come together to share a meal, here in nigeria, many muslims are observing the month of ramadan with fasting while grappling with the economic hardships plaging the country. the naira nigeria's currency experience a historic decline against the dollar in february this year, leading to rampant
8:49 am
inflation that has rendered life exceedingly difficult for many nigerians. in ramadan where people... need so much food, the people need to have um access to to basic supplies and then you begin to find that prices are exorbitant, um, the food is not even there in the first place, you know, so we have double edged inflation, the inflation is such that the money is not there and the food is not there, many people experience hunger before bedtime, making fasting during ramadan a formidable challenge, experts are served that there exists a fundamental issue that requires urgent attention, for a country where that is that has uh sorry uh 40% of the world's arable land, you find that there is no food security, it begs for question, mean it begs for answer, you calls to question what exactly are agricultural policies are, what are we doing, mean how did we get here, it's really uh quite pathetic, religious
8:50 am
organizations like the al habibiya islamic society have establish the food bank where muslims donate both money and food to support the less fortunate during ramadan, dedicated volunteers cook and package meals ensuring that hundreds of impoverished fasting muslims receive a warm meal for iftar in the evening. our purpose here is to improve lives through the support of allah, with utmost humility and sincere gratitude to the almighty allah, things are now getting better for us. yesterday. we provided meals for 2,200 people, on the first day of ramadan it was 1,600, and on the second day it reached 2002, only god knows the count. today, the nigerian government has recognized the food challenge and has moved to address it. this is in addition to other critical measures. beyond

8:52 am
world. the gains have often been made thanks to debt from ukraine, which has become europe's largest arms importer. french arms sales have sored 50% in recent years and now comprise 11% of the global market. the world's leading arms dealer is still the united states which control. nation which claims to be a country which greatly respects human rights is also a nation which is so very proud of its weapon sales, it's clear that the values of the french people and human rights are subservient to geostrategic interest and we shouldn't celebrate france's arming of often dictatorial regimes. arm sales to ukraine has... proven to be big business, and it may explain president emmanuel macron's about face on the conflict. two years ago, macron warned that russia must not be humiliated, but he's recently become
8:53 am
one of europe's leading anti-russia war hawks. france's top three arms clients are india, which is the world's largest arms importer, followed by saudi arabia, and tiny but rich kater. africa is still reeling from 40 tons of illegal. free arms drops france made in 2011 to support anti-qaddafi rebels in libya. as predicted, the weapons soon found their way to syria, the central african republic, ukraine, and elsewhere. french arms in africa allows france to show off their latest weapons and present them as combat proven, so africa is not just a show window for french arms, but also a testing laboratory, and with always... destabilizing results for the continent. this week, french parliament approved a 10-year military pact with kiev, which guarantees billions and more
8:54 am
weapons deliveries. russia continues to gain ground against nato-backed ukraine, which is an important reminder that some weapons are made to work under actual wartime conditions, and some are made mainly for sales and profit. robin mazaheri, press tv, paris. that's it for your latest on pr tv everyone, thanks for tuning in and goodbye for now. bismillahirrahmanirrahim. يا عبادي الذين امنوا ان ارضي واسعه فاي فاعبدون
