a witness on al jazeera, the civilians in the line was filed more than 200 collar stands killed. and as well as latest strikes on garza, the enzyme inside. and this is al, just here alive from dell. also coming up these really minutes recess, at least 13 of its soldiers have been killed in baffles and galls or over the weekend. more is ray the ray, the occupied west spine columns of almond vehicles and all those is needs different

assistance and not listening to the cut off and wherever invested behind where the war on gauze. that means christmas celebrations are looking very different this year. the, it's jessica and h a. m g m t, that's 10 o'clock in the morning. and gaza, where is riley falls? is a showing no sign of scanning bank that are offensive less despite growing international calls for restraint. more aid for palestinians is riley strikes on gauze that have killed more than $200.00 palestinians overnight. well, over $20000.00 palestinians has now been killed and is ready the attack since october, the 7th. 2 thirds of them, women and children, palestinian anom, the groups of putting up resistance to as well as ground invasion though these variety, ah, me says the t of it sold as have been confirmed,

killed since friday. mol, demonstrations of being held in his route, demanding the removal of prime minister. benyamin. nothing. yeah. who protests as also say they want the remaining captives in gaza, brought home as soon as possible. protest as it is riled them on the removal of the prime minister. meanwhile, they also want the captives and gaza brought home honey. my mood joins us live from girlfriend in southern gauze. or how does that stop 1st of all, because what you're hearing about the establishment of a buffer zone, man? yes, well there is a growing concerned among palestinians living in the gaza strip, but particularly those of were displaced from the northern part of the just this has been a consistent with the the, the sent them in by these really prime minister. and it has defense minister talking about it, creating a buffer zone at the eastern border line of the gauze. this trip, as well as the,

the northern parts, and just by looking at the, the shared level of destruction caused by berlin plus their strikes and artillery schilling, the arts, vacancy distance with a would be, would be the narrative. these really are making a, making the northern part of the nation and part of the got to uninhabitable. removing all the services of from it as well as destroying every means of life in those area, which feeds into an announcer plan at the beginning of the award of establishing a buffer zone. we're talking about it do kilometers depth into the gaza strip in an attempt to squeeze at people in a very narrow area along the coastal line of, of the gaza strip. that's the western side of the goes toward the buffer zone, according to his really military estate. many, it takes a while to create a, a more of that, a safety zone for the residents of the, the southern part of the a,

the, these really a settlements in the out to scared of, of the gaza strip when but, and in fact, what it will do it will just a squeeze at people into this area feeding into a long uh, an overall the plan of a squeezing and eventually a forcing people to leave the territory within the, the, the coming of in the coming month. this is part of, of the long term plan of expelling more, more palestinians. and i need a bit of a double check to be going on as more palestinians, full victims. this strikes, but also fully quicker than people can get the bodies under the rubble. yes indeed, sammy, this has been going on since the beginning of, of the war and the, and the intensity, the storage and the intensity in the market. you'd have the level of,

of destruction. people haven't been able to get their relatives and family members who were trapped in were missing and to seize under, under the rubble there was a bit of. busy that the people who are not unable to reach to their family members and relatives in the northern part and gauze, and even eastern part of hon. eunice within the past week. the whole that tiny bit of hope that they were still alive, but they were actually in shock to see that there were already under the rebels and have been there for weeks. and already the seas were looking at the 1000 of palestinians since the beginning of this war in which said their entire residential buildings were destroyed and completely leveled to the ground. and in this important to point out most of the bombardment that happens in an, according to an investigation done by the, the new york times, most of it took place under eh, under a heavy bombardment of what the, what the newspaper describe as dumb bonds that were not in the use into what these

really military have been talking about that is use a precise target. it's killing. in fact, there was more of a mass murder, a mass killing, of people inside their residential home and building. and that's the reason we're looking at the large numbers still missing and trapped in the seas under those rebels. and in fact, the of these days it's, it's very difficult for people to take these bodies into proper burial sites. what they end up doing is using all those little islands in the middle of the road or the sidewalks, or even in then they are in their back yards inside their remaining a residential homes just to bury them. just given the difficulty of the situation as though they will be shot out right away and we have evidence of people were killed and shot out as do work. it trying to bury their relatives and loved ones in, in, in a graveyard. all right, we're live with that highly must moved now 8 agencies,

a warning decomposing bodies left lying in the street. so on the rumbling gauze are increasing the risk of disease. i'll just see it as and especially for full. it's from northern gaza when members of the civil defense teams are recovering bodies, taking them for burial. a solemn, initially meals will not shut me out as far as after more than 20 days. here in northern cause of civil defense teams were able to recover bodies of tens of people were under the rubble of the houses and on the streets and roads will see a show at a democrat hello. civil defense teams were not able to reach them due to the presence of the occupation forces in occupation vehicles in these areas. you know, she had the little unmet zillow, neck, i shot the extra head there. of course, there are still tens of others killed, that the civil defense teams have not been able to reach in many areas here in the north of the stress the vitamin heavy i just sent me a large number of these bodies have decomposed on the street on the roads and under

the rubble of homes, unable most of these bodies are unidentified. now the teams are trying to bury them here in one of the spaces in this area as to how the phenomena do you have them to look in the should allow shut off the shore, dealt with to day. thank god we were able to recover terms of bodies and they will be buried now in the mass graves, news and donation hospitals with the help of our teams. of course, as you know, we are working without any technical capabilities or equipment. unfortunately that also. so we were not able to reach the occupation is still present on the outskirts of the area. and we had great difficulty in reaching the area. the roads and the district homes are going to show out on the streets are still not safe. it's not usually on the east of targeting and many pass or by as well as the civil defense teams. the mileage on the show at the show, i do a mass grave for many dead who have not been identified. and there is still

a large number of bodies on the streets. and it's a chevy, if i use the, it'll show that it has a, its members of israel's will cabinets. have to knowles and gals are in that solid. just taking part in the ground. defensive is riley minute, tre, video shows, defense minister you of girl on time emergency minutes to been against talking to troops. this very minute free is counted out more rates and the rest of palestinians in the occupied westbank, palestinian finds exchange gun file with soldiers from the city of nob, less than the north, early on sunday palestinians. and his very forces also for the city of total cut them. let's go live now to alan fisheries in the occupied east jerusalem for us. so let's talk about those. casualty tells what are you hearing from his resources? well, you remember the yoga lines and betty guns at the start of the war said it wouldn't

be long, it would be difficult and the near ones be sacrifices to be made. well, on the saturday it was confirm that it is really soldiers had been killed for in northern guys, up in central guys or rather, and for in this size. now these really armies saying that they are fighting in complex areas around 10 units. that when they have a type of believe to be tunnels used by how much they find fighters matching from the on site or as there's really troops they say of the of the debts that happened on saturday was to wear by guided missiles, explosive devices, and intense lighting the intense entering the right to the 5 soldiers but died on friday. and you can see that this has been a very difficult we can for these really are me. and guys of it also trying to undermine the argument that they are all most incomplete military control of northern guys. and that they are now turning their attention to southern guns are

just the fact that there have been these incidents in the central area suggest is that the is really the control doesn't extend quite as far as the thing and that there will be more days of heavy fighting ahead, which would certainly disappoint the american, so it'd be nearing. we'd like to see those wrapped up in days rather than weeks. and we've had from the israelis already that they expect this phase of the war to last, at least until the middle of january, which of course, is another 3 weeks away. all right, thanks so much out of the session of the a spring in now and the us and he's a retired general and ministry analyst joins us from bay. were good to have you with us. so we've got one of the highest announcements of casualty tall since this will began. what does that suggest to you? the kind of the characteristic of, if this war is a defense problem, you know,

a conventional line. you know, the good wars because out of fighting and not been area mode over when, how much, you know, executive the 7th of october and, you know, uh inside this we can do it really preparing the ground. i mean, that is right. yeah, we apologize that let's see if we can bring back in the us and all right. we've lost contact with him. that was in the us and oh okay, i think we have, i guess spyglass. can you hear me? we lost contact momentarily with you, but i believe you can hear me now. the the

right, definitely the connections down with are they asked apologies for that. still a head on al jazeera and now the news, a festival of lights in south korea organizes say they aim to lift the dog less of the pos to you, the hello there. let's have a look at the best of full cost across europe. and then chances of a white christmas us, then we've got lots of unsettled weather. yes, it will be some snow here in the but the wind is the story you can see blowing in from the north west. we could see some severe gale's on sunday for britain and the island of island. we've got wind warnings out for scotland and the northeast of england and coastal areas of island with some heavy rain to come on monday. there is the wind blowing across into denmark,

affecting most essential areas of europe as well with heavy rain for jeremy that will push across into the czech republic on, on woods to poland. and as that system moves its way further, east is called a wintery edge. that's going to roll across the baltic states into belarus and ukraine. so we only want you to do some snow that then pushes into southern parts of russia, wintery weather as well dominating across, and also scanned in a bit down in the cell. very dry, but some wind warnings, all across the mediterranean lodge, the dry and sunny for the south east, the athens at 19 degrees on the system, the stories of spain and portugal. lots of settled weather with the sunshine. now, despite the unsettled whether there is some rooms coming in berlin at 11 degrees celsius, so nice, few festive days ahead. the federal tax upfront takes on the big issue. there is a whole tax to what is happening now. it says it's closed tax question to place an

unflinching questions rigorous. the bank that he added to today is that another mcclin's thing is taking place. augusta. nothing goes into gauze or without us of permission. nothing leads about that. without the girls permission, allow me to push back for a moment, demanding a ceasefire, demanding an end to the root causes of all of this violence upfront. without the, i'll come back, you're watching, i'll just see what time to recap on headlines now. is ready for us is a showing no sign of scaling back. there are offensive own guns that despite growing international calls for a strain,

at least $200.00 palestinians have been killed. and overnight, right? these variety ami says at least 13, so this of being killed in fighting and gaza, or over the weekend sat today as rel, suffered one of its worst daily losses. since the start of the conflict and 8 soldiers died, the ministry is counted down more raising retentions of palestinians, the vaulted 5 west vague vices exchange fine with troops and several locations, including novelist. a united states says it's shut down full drones, heading towards the us. well shifting the red sea, the us says they were launched from healthy controlled areas of yemen and targeted an american destroyer. they also say who these 5 to and to ship ballistic missiles and the sea, the southern positively international shipping line. and the rounds foreign ministers rejecting us accusations that helped to humans who these attack vessels and the red sea washington says to hong is providing drones,

missiles and tactical intelligence in k. yeah, mind, resettle high, for example. trade on human has officially declared its position. it's official spokesman, repeat their actions daily demons. moving the red sea is completely in many move and supportive garza and this american accusation about involvement is a baseless accusation against the islamic republic. regarding the issue of the coalition of the red sea, i think the americans before trying to create a coalition that will not help the situation should stop genocide or crimes and human siege enforced migration of gaza residents to areas in egypt and jordan in the future. as in the dreams of his fate, and his real resume also saw that joins us now live from debility. so a, so this be the number of incidents in the last 24 hours is this pointing to something of a global escalation and driving the tax on shipping? indeed sammy, now the war on guys is not on the original moore that's happening between our mazda

and israel bodies having a global verification. so a contact on spokesperson said that on saturday, a drawn struck an oil tanker team the indian ocean. and she said that the throne, the incident happened a $200.00 of new to come miles from the cost of india. and he says that that one was a one way attack thrown directly fired from the wrong. and so this is common all rights, all stared. these, yes, official saying that runs the rules is at tags that are conducted by louise in the red sea, and also the united kingdom. maritime trades operation. say that at dawn was fly low on a rustle that was cruising through the red sea. a foot doctor that explored it so it's not could be whether it was trying to attack the wessel or whether it was contacting. there should be this activities that he said that happened just the new
