yes and protesters have taking to the streets in many different cities including in the jordan valley we've seen dozens have protested there despite the israeli army's attempts to pretend to prevent them from doing so the israeli army has closed off all the roads or most of the roads leading to the jordan valley so that prevented some of the people who wanted to go there to voice their dejection however the event still continued fear and clashes have erupted with the israeli army also in different areas in the west bank including in bethlehem and we've seen some clear clashes in the settlement medical sources have told us that around 41 palestinians have been injured 3 of them have been hospitalized so there is a lot of tension in the ground not necessarily that reflected in forms of protests the palestinian president has talked about this yesterday talked about this rejection saying that no palestinian can accept such a plan. well stephanie decker is a correspondent in gaza city where people say the deal will strip their rights. despite the cold for a general strike it is business as

palestinians also see the photo jordan valley as a vital part of a future state as the bread basket of the west bank. israel wants to maintain a long term military presence in the corridor of land adjacent to the children border. which it says is essential for its security. palestinians are also seeking e east jerusalem a athe capital israel claims the city as its own i'm rejects any division. it's a claim that was bolstered by trump in twenty seventeen when h he recognized s israel's's capalal. i lost main sticking point is the p plight f the descscendants o of millionsf palestinian refugees who fled when israel the cat state in nineteen forty eight. israel refuses to countenance the return saying it influx would endanger the state's jewish identity. now this spring in not i see sau gosh eléctrica if international relations and politics at the university of essex joining us out live from colchester thank you very much for being with us i'm i'm tempted to stop by looking at the state both trump and netanyahu to leaders. in their own countries under investigation up does this seem like

and he included the jordan valley in fact in that reference something which is sure to be controversial given this what does trump hope to get from this deal. well i think that president donald trump was not only addressing israel and the palestinians touring this these statements but of course he was also addressing his space here in the united states christian of and jelly because who support the state of israel and of course also influential members of jewish communities in the u.s. that president trump is hoping to win over from the democrats we have to keep in mind that we will have a presidential election here in the u.s. in november and of course president would like to be we.
