5:06 pm

as the rates of evacuation continues to rise to the southern parts and in particular, in rough destruction of residential buildings on hospitals. meanwhile, some aid has gone into guys uh uh, tarik, after this deal broken by ca, time friends. where has it gone to where and what 8 is it i guess the majority of age that's have been allowed to get into the gaza strip, have been delivered and transported to the most desperate areas. installing goals of strict on a number of them had went to the international organizations in order to be distributed later to the by the city administered health as a way just to help defend the city and sick to survive and to keep up the rating. despite all that for us, that goes to the limit that the medical sector has been facing since october. the 7th, as more than 30000 and hospital have become out of service alongside with more than
5:08 pm
150 medical health care centers become completely on functioning right now due to the way to screw, minute treat attacks and get against the medical sectors. and also in areas that have been involved in the battles between our mazda and is we're what it's also important to say that this amount of a that has been allowed to enter the goals. this trip is still very limited. as the medical sector needs new kinds of help and we've been curious supplies just to be able to keep providing a treatment for the thousands of times. these who are being trapped in the mood and also in the summer at cost of the territory as the number of injuries had toys into more than $61000.00 palestinians being in jet till now. tara, thank you very much for the updates that saw tie capitalism reporting that live from rossa in the southern gaza strip in the occupied westbank. meanwhile, these really ami has killed upon a simian as it expands its raids in the territory. he was shot dead into crime where these really military is carrying out a rate for a 2nd day,
5:09 pm
at least 7 out of seem to have been killed in the city since wednesday. dozens will, will have been arrested. let's get an update from her job to allow me to was in, took reinforce in the occupied westbank, the raid onto her and refugee camp hold. i still ongoing. i understand. tell us about what's been happening and just how intense intense the situation is inside the account. as well as ongoing and from what we have experienced. it has also expanded in the sense that we have been trying for several hours earlier to reach a position overlooking the refugee camp. and wherever we went, where a local residence told us to turn away because they said that they were a snipers, that took positions on rooftop. that a certain point. actually, a young man even told us to quickly turn left because he said that there was a wounded just down the road. the. the rate is ongoing inside the refugee cab its and its 35th hour at this point uh local residents. the tool does
5:10 pm
that, bulldozers have been shoveling the roads destroying the, the infrastructure, and also destroying houses of people living there. as you mentioned earlier, there was a 67 people have died. it says this rate started on wednesday morning at around 5 am of 4 in the jose strikes on a, one of the houses there. we also know that dozens of young men have big, round it up. they are b integra, gated as we speak. it could be that the, the end of the day, or the end of the raid, actually a, some of them would be released. but this is a practice that israel has now been applying more and more gathering intelligence on site. how that, why the focus on to crime and, and the refuge account as well. the focus is, has been ever since october 7th, all the took care of refuge account,
5:11 pm
but not only that one did you need refugee. gov, the ballasa refugee cab next to that block, and that's because of the presence of palestinian resistance. now israel looks at these are the groups as a what it labels there is, but there actually is seen by police students as a valid student resistance. they try to get and round up as many as they can, but in reality, what we have been monitoring ever since october, 7th of that, a lot of people have been detained, were now up to 6000 since across the occupied buzz back since october 7th. none of them have to do anything with an armed resistance. none of them are members of high miles. some of them are simply detained because the soldier find something he did not like on the mobile. so this is a practice that has been going on and it's growing according to all accounts we
5:12 pm
heard from palestinians a bit all over the occupied was by now. this is also happening at a time with these really secure is security forces all worried about the volt. that is, situation here in the west, back the sheet that has actually even warned that it's potentially explosive. it's has saying that it recommends the government to allow the balance to do the workers, to go back to the jobs inside israel. but what is really making this situation explosive here is actually this continuous raids. we're focusing today onto the curve at the moment because it's the largest one, but they have been many rigs over the past 12 hours a bit all over the occupied with batch and with raise you have death and you have the tension and that is what's causing the explosive situation and exposing situation, no doubt in the occupied westbound code that they've had me. thank you very much for the updates. well, joining us to discuss this and other developments now is melanie comment, who is
5:13 pm
a professor of political science at harvard university, and is here with us in doha today. thank you so much for being with us, melanie. i wanted to get your thoughts 1st about the situation on the ground, not just in gaza, but also in the occupied westbank way. policies are being attach that being arrested. what does that say to you about where this conflict is headed? yes, well obviously i don't need to tell you it's a catastrophic situation and it's obviously most catastrophic in gaza. but the fact that it's spreading at an increased pace in the west bank suggests that this is nowhere near over. and that there is a really deep conflict that is even more protracted them before. and i don't see much hope for a conclusion to this anytime soon. right now melanie, a 4 of yours, you signed a petition back in november with more than a 1000 american political scientists calling on the biden administration to stop
5:14 pm
this war on gaza. and we're going to talk about the controversy in a minute. but what, why did you sign this petition and what, what were you hoping it would achieve when you look at the way the biden administration has handled this war ended on equivocal support to israel today. right, well obviously our petition didn't have a great impact to the we can see. yeah. but the reason i signed it is i thought it was a very fair minded expression representing diverse opinions. this was not a, you know, radical partition. it was extremely balanced and we are tick elated, our demands in the language of human rights and universe. so human rights. and we felt that this was the right way to proceed is the only way that any resolution can be reached. and frankly, not only is it, of course, most important to save palestinians, but also is not in the interest of israelis how this conflict has proceeded. so you faced a lot of backlash was which we face some backlash with his petition. and for many
5:15 pm
other things, it was not widely covered in the american media, to be honest. but certainly this is part of an ongoing set of controversies that have become deeply polarized on campuses. and they're in american and, and we're going to talk about harvard and what's happened there, but many, many members of american civil society who voice support for the war. i mean, for our guys, i for the people of guys a and an expose, you know, their views against israel and, and the genocide that's going on and guys are right now have either face censorship in the us. housman or community of actions. you know, when you look at a country like the united states, what, what does that say to you about the state of free speech in america today? yeah, well, free speech is clearly selective free speech. and it's really alarming how much things are wretched up at the same time you are hearing more voices occasionally on mainstream media as well. which i think is part of the issue is that there is a greater diversity of voices on palestine. and this is frightening to people that
5:16 pm
have those that are extremely pro, is real at all costs step. now your from harvard university and the war. and guys of course, you know, created controversy in many american campuses. but harvard was really, i mean, under the spotlight throughout, you know, the last few months, which ended with the resignation of counting gay as its president. talk to us about how, how it over on fold and, and what do you think hobbit handled to this very well? yeah, i mean how it on folded as a complicated story and there's some great sort of monday morning quarterbacking articles out there and they take it, take us through it. but basically it started with a petition or a statement by a group of students who placed all the blame on israel, and this was on october 7th. i so it was an ill timed statement, but to cut to the chase 1st, the administration was accused of being biased against israel for not immediately
5:17 pm
forcefully condemning her mouth and just regretting the events that unfolded and um, and then it ratcheted up to this congressional hearing and so at 1st the demands were great, are statements condemning him ass, and then the hearing unfolded in a way that was really a set up and then put the university presidents on the stand there in a way that i think was unfair. and to get to your question about how harvard handled it, i think all of these presidents were not well prepared for this. they were prepared for a legal deaf at the deposition, not for a political campaign. and that's what this is right now, just briefly melanie, i know you specialize in post conflict of politics and i wanted to ask you about how you see this and then this, this war on guys. can it be results? do you see? no, you hear the americans talking about a 2 state solution, palestinians and israelis living side by side. mm hm. is that going to happen?
5:18 pm
yeah. so can it be resolved? what i mean is going to have to be resolved, and we know that it's going to have to be resolved diplomatically. war is not the answer. it's not going to work. israel's not going to achieve it stated objectives through a military campaign. so eventually there's going to have to be a conversation and is really jews and palestinians are going to have to live side by side. but frankly, i don't see that as any said, a 2 state solution as reliable in the immediate future or any other configuration at this point. very interesting to talk to you. thank you so much for coming in talk just they are mailing the comic professor of international affairs at top and university. thank you for your time. thank you for the war on guys that is taking a large toll on small businesses in israel, leaving them reading from a lack of demand and a shortfall of workers. 350000. these really on a b service has been mobilized for duty and tens of thousands of policy and workers of blocks from entering his route or con, before some televi of the yeah,

5:20 pm
reported significant losses. straight flight vist. intel only made up of small businesses and some of the owners, which include reserves. so just tell us they feel neglected by the government, and then the last, the business itself during the war, they also say the skeptical, the new budget will fill the void pots. many economists say the government's priorities all skewed as money follow to religious schools and illegal assessment projects remain intact on small businesses and not being prioritized. one of the things that i think, let me fully tissues and economist and not understand that it's not enough to allocate $12000000000.00 for a sudden cause you must have a mechanism that actually takes the money and funnels it down and photos it quickly . and here's what we do, not appreciate enough small businesses. we look down at them, and that's a big,
