Shtayyeh said that the perpetrators are persistent in killing, as the child Odeh joined the constellation of martyrs a short while ago in the village of Medea, west of Ramallah, in crimes that claim the lives of children, women and the elderly as a result of the international community's continuation of its dual policies that encourage the perpetrators to continue their crimes.

Private translation "Jerusalem" dot com - Extremist Israeli Knesset member Itamar Ben Gvir said today, Monday, that his chances of being a minister in a government formed by Benjamin Netanyahu are not excluded, and that Likud members do not mind that.

Bangkok - (AFP) - US Vice President Kamala Harris and the leaders of Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand and Canada pledged pressure on North Korea during a session of emergency talks they held Friday to discuss Pyongyang's launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile.

Hours after North Korea launched a missile that Japan said could target the US mainland, Harris met leaders of close US partners on the sidelines of an Asia-Pacific Island summit in Bangkok.

"We strongly condemn these actions and again call on North Korea to cease any further illegal and destabilizing actions," Harris told reporters as the talks began. "On behalf of the United States, I stress our unwavering commitment to our alliances in the Indo-Pacific region," she added.

Japan reported that the missile landed in its territorial waters.

The launch came after weeks of escalating tension with North Korea, which US intelligence agencies believe is preparing a seventh nuclear test.

A White House statement on the Bangkok talks said the six leaders also warned of a "strong and resolute response" if North Korea conducted a nuclear test.

The statement said the leaders agreed that "the path of dialogue remains open to the DPRK," which they called on to "abandon unnecessary provocations and return to serious and sustainable diplomacy."

In a veiled reference to China, which is the most important lifeline for Pyongyang, the statement called on all UN members to "fully implement" UN Security Council resolutions that imposed broad sanctions on North Korea.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the leaders were also calling for an emergency session of the UN Security Council, where China and Russia in May vetoed a Washington-led effort to toughen sanctions against North Korea.

"It's about the world coming together to condemn North Korea's actions and defend peace and security in our region," Albanese told Australian reporters.

But during the meeting, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida acknowledged concerns that North Korea was ignoring the pressure. "There is a possibility that North Korea will launch more missiles," Kishida said.

South Korean Prime Minister Han Dak-soo stressed that the "blatant" launch should be "never tolerated". "The international community must respond resolutely," Han said.

The meeting is the last in a series of meetings held to discuss the North Korean file.

US President Joe Biden met Sunday with Kishida and South Korean President Yoon Sok-Yul on the sidelines of the Southeast Asian Summit in Cambodia.

The leaders issued a similar warning of a nuclear test, prompting North Korea to denounce the trilateral meeting as evidence of US hostility.

And Friday's meeting showed that the allies will not back down, as three other countries joined their ranks.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he added his voice to allies by "denouncing in the strongest terms" North Korea's "continued and irresponsible actions."

In turn, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern pledged that her country would "continue to respond forcefully," stressing that she understood the "concern" of Japan and South Korea.

Despite the pressure, the Biden administration believes that China remains the country most capable of putting pressure on North Korea.

Biden met Monday with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali and expressed confidence that Beijing shares the same goals regarding North Korea, which is among the world's poorest and most isolated countries.

"I am confident that China does not want North Korea to engage in further escalation," Biden told reporters after the meeting.

Harris is participating in the Asia-Pacific Economic Forum (APEC) after Biden returned to the United States to attend his granddaughter's wedding.

Biden offered to start a working-level dialogue with North Korea, something Pyongyang showed no interest in.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un held three showy meetings with Donald Trump, Biden's predecessor, during which he succeeded in easing tensions but without reaching a lasting agreement.

The United States stresses that it will never recognize North Korea as a nuclear power, while most experts believe that Pyongyang will never give up its arsenal.

Bennett's office said that 4 journalists who joined the visit refused to pass the very strict security check, then left the place after 10 minutes, indicating that they were not allowed to enter, and the issue was not raised during the session between the head of Deer Line and Bennett.

رام الله- “القدس”دوت كوم- اندلعت اشتباكات بالأيدي، مساء اليوم الأحد، بين مسيرتين في مدينة رام الله، إحداهما مؤيدة للرئيس محمود عباس والأخرى احتجاجية على مقتل الناشط السياسي نزار بنات.

ونظمت حركة فتح وقفة على دوار المنارة وسط مدينة رام الله، دعماً للرئيس وتضامناً مع الأسـير المضرب لليوم الرابع والخمسين الغضنفر أبو عطوان، وبالتزامن كانت هناك على بُعد عشرات الأمتار مسيرة على دوار الساعة بالمدينة احتجاجاً على مقتل الناشط نزار بنات.

وخلال هتاف المسيرة المحتجة على مقتل نزار بنات بهتافات تدعو إلى حل السلطة ورحيل الرئيس محمود عباس، حدثت اشتباكات بين المشاركين في المسيرتين بالأيدي، فيما تمت مهاجمة الصحافيين وتحطيم العديد من كاميراتهم ومصادرة جوالاتهم الشخصية.

وصباح الخميس الماضي، أُعلن مقتل الناشط نزار بنات بعد ساعات من اعتقاله في مدينة الخليل، وتشهد مدن الضفة الغربية احتجاجات على مقتله، وكان أقواها في مدينة رام الله، حيث فرّقت الأجهزة الأمنية مرات عدة مسيرات احتجاجية على مقتل بنات، وتم الاعتداء على المتظاهرين وإصابة عدد منهم وكذلك الاعتداء على الصحافيين.

من جهة أُخرى، قمعت الأجهزة الأمنية، مساء اليوم، مسيرة جماهيرية احتجاجاً على مقتل الناشط الفلسطيني نزار بنات.

وانطلقت المسيرة من مخيم الدهيشة وهي ترفع الأعلام الفلسطينية وصور بنات، فيما ندد المتظاهرون بمقتله وطالبوا بمحاسبة الفاعلين وبرحيل النظام، وجابت المسيرة شوارع مخيم الدهيشة ومن ثم الشارع الرئيس وصولاً إلى مقرات الاجهزة الامنية في بيت لحم، وألقى الشبان الحجارة والزجاجات الحارقة باتجاه المقرات، وقد خرج العشرات من العناصر الأمنية إلى الشارع وردوا بإطلاق قنابل الصوت والغاز باتجاه المتظاهرين، حيث تسببت المظاهرة بإغلاق الشارع الرئيس أمام حركة السير، ما أدى إلى اكتظاظ شديد في الحركة المرورية.

وقال نشطاء شاركوا في المسيرة إنها كانت سلمية، وهدفت إلى إعلاء الصوت الغاضب ضد جريمة الاغتيال، لكن أجهزة الأمن جابهتها بقوة شديدة.

يشار إلى أن الفعاليات المختلفة كانت قد فتحت بيت عزاء بالناشط بنات في محيط صرح الشهيد، حيث قال أيمن الأحمر: إن الدعوة للعزاء كانت لمدة ثلاثة أيام تنتهي مساء اليوم، وهي عبارة عن تعبير غاضب بسبب الجريمة، وقد أمّ العزء العديد من مختلف الفعاليات التي استنكرت الجريمة وطالبت بفتح تحقيق محايد فيها.

New Delhi - (AFP) - The Indian authorities prevented a female photographer from traveling to the United States to receive the Pulitzer Prize , according to what close to the young winner said, in an additional example of Kashmiri journalists who are subject to travel bans.

Sana Irshad Mato was among four Reuters journalists who won this year's prestigious award for photojournalists.

The 28-year-old journalist has won acclaim for her reporting on life in Indian Kashmir, a disputed territory in the Himalayas that has been militarized and insurgent for decades.

Immigration authorities stopped her at New Delhi airport on Tuesday and prevented her from leaving India, while two of her colleagues were allowed to travel.

Mato later posted a tweet on Twitter showing a picture of her travel ticket with the words "cancelled without any infringement of rights."
Mato, who is also a member of the prestigious Magnum Foundation, regretted the move, which was marred by a "unique occasion".

"I was arrested without any reason while the others were allowed to leave," she told AFP. "Maybe this is related to my being from Kashmir."

This is the second time that a photojournalist has been banned from leaving India this year.

In July, Manu was stopped in the same way at the same airport when she was preparing to travel to Paris to launch her book at a meeting place in the city of Arles, in southeastern France.

India has sought to extend its control over Kashmir, which neighboring Pakistan also claims full sovereignty over, which constitutes a constant source of tension between the two neighboring countries, which have nuclear military capabilities.

Thousands of people have been killed since the start of the rebellion against the Indian regime in 1989, and more than half a million soldiers are still constantly stationed in the region.

Helsinki - (AFP) - The Finnish Ministry of Defense announced on Wednesday that it had granted an authorization to export military equipment to Turkey after suspending its export since the fall of 2019, due to Turkey's launch of a military operation in Syria.

The ministry's special adviser, Rika Petkanen, told AFP that the export license relates to steel that will be used to make armor.

"No commercial export licenses have been issued to Turkey since October 2019," Petkanen added.

The resumption of licenses to export military equipment is one of the conditions set by Ankara to give the green light to Finland and Sweden's accession to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

Stockholm lifted the suspension of exporting this equipment to Turkey at the end of September.

This announcement comes after Ankara on Tuesday postponed talks with Sweden and Finland about their accession to NATO, coinciding with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's condemnation of Stockholm for allowing a demonstration during which a far-right activist burned a copy of the Qur'an in front of the Turkish embassy in Sweden.

The Finnish Defense Minister's decision was immediately criticized by one of the parties involved in Prime Minister Sanna Marin's government.
Left Alliance party leader Lee Anderson said on Twitter that her party "does not support exporting defense equipment to countries at war or violating human rights. We believe Finland should not grant an export license to Turkey."

Tunisia - (AFP) - Tunisian Foreign Minister Nabil Ammar confirmed Monday, in an interview with Agence France-Presse, that his country is sending messages of "reassurance", but excludes an apology, following criticism that considered President Kais Saied's speech regarding immigrants from sub-Saharan African countries "racist". .

Tunisian President Kais Saied stressed on Tuesday that "urgent measures" should be taken to stop the flow of irregular migrants from sub-Saharan Africa to his country, stressing that this phenomenon leads to "violence and crimes."

Saied's remarks came while he chaired a meeting of the National Security Council at the Carthage Palace on Tuesday, "dedicated to urgent measures that must be taken to address the phenomenon of the influx of large numbers of irregular migrants from sub-Saharan Africa to Tunisia," according to a statement by the Tunisian presidency.

Many NGOs denounced the speech as "racist and hateful", and the African Union denounced it and considered the president's remarks "shocking" and called on member states to "refrain from any racist hate speech".

"It is a tendentious interpretation of the statements of the higher Tunisian authorities on this matter. A few days have passed since this happened and we must now remain calm, and messages of reassurance have been sent through official and other channels," the foreign minister told AFP.
And he continued in the context of his speech, "No, the issue of apology is not raised, we did not harm anyone."

According to official figures reported by the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights, Tunisia, with a population of about 12 million, has more than 21,000 citizens from sub-Saharan Africa, most of whom are in an illegal situation.

"For legal immigrants, no problem. On the contrary, we want more," the minister added. As for "illegal immigrants, they are invited to return to their homes, but with respect for their rights and dignity."

Following Said's strongly worded rhetoric, a number of NGOs and witnesses reported an escalation of attacks against African migrants in Tunisia.

"We should not confuse individual behavior with what the authorities do. The authorities take all measures to protect all migrants in Tunisia, whether they are legal or illegal," Ammar said.

The minister, who has been in office for three weeks, justified Saied's speech, saying that "the Tunisian authorities have the right to alert when illegal immigrant flows increase, with all the consequences that may ensue."

Said's statements about the existence of a "criminal arrangement prepared since the beginning of this century to change the demographic composition of Tunisia" in order to "settle irregular migrants from sub-Saharan Africa" in the country, reinforced comparisons with what is known as the "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory, which is defended in France by the right-wing. Extremist Eric Zemmour.

Ammar commented, "It is just one element (of the discourse), why did the commentators focus on this element to make it central? Even if this study was found, where is the problem with that? It is not the Tunisian authorities that produced it."

Ammar added, "There were testimonies in video clips, I do not want to mention them because I do not want to participate in the development of this debate, but there were testimonies given by immigrants from sub-Saharan countries and they said + here we are at home and so on + I do not even want to talk about that".

The majority of migrants from sub-Saharan countries arrive in Tunisia, some of whose coasts are less than 150 kilometers from the Italian island of Lampedusa, and then try to migrate illegally to Europe by sea.

Some NGOs consider Tunisia, whose coast guard regularly intercepts migrant boats bound for Europe, to be a key player in monitoring migration routes in the Mediterranean.

The minister continued, "We are in a difficult situation between the north and the south. When we say that there is a problem, they accuse us of racism. Do you see how unfair that is?"

He also denied accusations by non-governmental organizations and the opposition that Said's discourse on immigrants aims to distract public opinion from the deteriorating living conditions and the tense political situation with a series of arrests in political circles.
"Of course not... These are their interpretations... This is not the reality," he concluded.

According to the Hebrew channel Reshet Kan, the child was in his family's vehicle when a soldier opened fire at them, although they did not pose any danger to the lives of any of the soldiers.

UN sources attributed the failure to issue the statement to the United States exerting great pressure to withdraw the draft resolution, and it threatened to use its veto.

Following a closed meeting of the Security Council, the Palestinian ambassador to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, called on the council to "take action" to "protect" its civilian citizens after the attack by Israeli settlers on the village of Hawara in the occupied West Bank.

Mansour told reporters, "We believe it is the responsibility of the Security Council (...) to take measures to ensure the protection of the civilian population, especially after the criminal and terrorist act committed by the settlers in Hawara and the neighboring towns and villages."

Moscow - (AFP) - Moscow announced Monday the expulsion of the Estonian ambassador, accusing Tallinn of "hostility to Russia", after Estonia expelled earlier this month 21 Russian diplomats and other embassy staff.

The Russians, on the one hand, and the Westerners, on the other, have intensified the expulsion of diplomats in recent years, especially since Russian forces launched their invasion of Ukraine on February 24. But this is the first time that an ambassador has been expelled to his country since the start of the Russian attack.

"The ambassador of the Republic of Estonia must leave Russia on February 7, 2023," the foreign ministry said in a statement, referring to the downgrade of diplomatic relations to the charge d'affaires.

"In recent years, Estonian leaders have deliberately destroyed all relations with Russia.

Tallinn has made state policy out of complete hatred of Russia and a culture of hostility towards our country.

According to Moscow, Estonia's January 11 announcement of the expulsion of Russian diplomats confirms the "policy of destroying relations" between the two countries.

"The full responsibility for the development of this situation in relations between Russia and Estonia rests with the Estonian side. We will continue to respond to the hostile measures taken by the Estonian leaders," the ministry noted.

Estonia, which supports Ukraine in its dispute with Russia and which has many points of contention with Moscow since the collapse of the Soviet Union, justified the expulsion of Russian diplomats by the need to "achieve parity" in the numbers of diplomatic staff for the two countries in Tallinn and Moscow.

Last April, Russia ordered the closure of the Estonian consulates in St. Petersburg and Pskov and declared their employees "persona non grata".

Moscow made its decision after the three Baltic states, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia, expelled Russian diplomats following the invasion of Ukraine.

Russia has expelled diplomats several times since the outbreak of the conflict, notably 34 Frenchmen in May and 14 Bulgarians in August.

ISLAMABAD (AFP) - Pakistan on Saturday summoned the US ambassador to seek an explanation for US President Joe Biden's description of the South Asian country as "one of the most dangerous countries in the world" and his questioning of nuclear safety protocols.

Biden made his seemingly unprepared comment Thursday night while speaking about US foreign policy during a private Democratic Party fundraiser in California. But the White House later published the transcript of his remarks, which sparked outrage in Pakistan.

Relations between Washington and Pakistan have been strained since last year, when the United States ended the two-decade war in Afghanistan.

Pakistan provided important logistical support in the war, but US officials believe Islamabad's powerful military and intelligence apparatus also helped the Taliban, who returned to power with the withdrawal of foreign forces from Afghanistan.

And Biden was talking about his usual contacts with Chinese President Xi Jinping, when he said, "Did anyone expect that we would be in a situation in which China is trying to define its role in relation to Russia, in relation to India and in relation to Pakistan?"

"This is a guy who understands what he wants but he has a huge set of problems. How do we deal with that? How do we deal with that in relation to what's happening in Russia?"

"And what I think is probably the most dangerous country in the world: Pakistan. Nuclear weapons, but without any coherence."
Hours after publishing the text of his speech, US Ambassador Donald Bloom was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Islamabad.

He said Pakistani Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari during a press conference in Karachi, "I discussed the matter with the prime minister and summoned the US ambassador ... to take formal action."

"I was taken aback by President Biden's remarks. I think that's exactly the kind of misunderstanding that arises when there is a lack of communication," he added.

It seemed that Zardari allows Washington some space to interpret the statement, as he said, "The ceremony was not official, it was not a speech to the nation or a speech before Parliament."

He continued, "We have to give them an opportunity to explain this situation. I do not think that this should negatively affect relations between Pakistan and the United States."

The United States is wary of Pakistan's close partnership with China as Beijing pushes ahead with a $54 billion "economic corridor" project to build infrastructure that would give Beijing access to the Indian Ocean.

Washington has long stressed that China will be the biggest beneficiary of the project and will leave Pakistan mired in debt that it will not be able to bear.

Pakistan has ignored warnings from the United States, which considers China its number one global rival.
