0:00.0	Hello everybody. Thank you so much for listening to this episode about the terrible situation in Gaza and Israel.
0:09.0	We have tried to do this podcast several times with Amnesty International.
0:15.3	I think it's very critical that we do not spread any kind of misinformation at this time.
0:19.8	So I did not want to do this without Amnesty's leadership.

1:39.6	about online. We've done our best to do this in the best way possible and as, you know,
1:46.8	economically as we can and we're sorry that it has been delayed as long as it has.
1:50.7	And we hope that you find this discussion informative.
1:56.0	Thank you very much for listening.
1:58.2	We know it's a hard, we know it's a hard thing to listen to. So today I'm here to introduce the CEO of Amnesty International UK, Sasha Deschmuc on the current
