7:09 pm
a ministry brief to the media earlier. and they said the what happened was the a trucks in the clear why they cause a check point not in the middle of the gaza strip. it's where he's right as christmas check point to divide the know from the south that says crowd gathered around these vehicles and people are either crushed by the vehicles or crushed in the mail a to get to the food. and the military says they didn't open fi here, but then he says the trucks moved away. there was a large crowd of people that approach the soldiers. and the soldiers felt threatened, and they opened fine. i've many people were shot in the legs, these military size now bodies. the story also that he's being of course, reported on his riley television. and there's really media not as a store these riley's accept with back knowledge. that's the commentary going on here. that because of the size of the number of casualties based code for us is royal into agreeing to a cease 5 when they might not be ready to do it. and you add to that. the whitehouse thing it's very concerned about as well as happened. the whitehouse also
7:10 pm
saying basically the home negotiation, so i knowledge meant israel and israel, the best could effect a ceasefire. see, find negotiations. you will get to that part of the story. what the white house, the saying and just the 2nd because kimberly how it is getting ready for that. bernard, this something else, bernard standing by does something else we need him to talk to us about, which is this. israel has seized nearly 3 square kilometers of palestinian land, near an illegal settlement in the occupied west. back. this move will establish a new settlement near molly. i do mean which you see on your screen now. that's near occupied east jerusalem. and estimated for $40000.00 is really settlers lived there. federal expansion is illegal under international law, yet it has ramped up significantly since the war on gaza again. so bernard, why is israel taking this land? so all settlements in the occupied westbank are considered illegal under
7:11 pm
international law, but these rarely some settlements and then they have outposts, so they consider illegal. those outposts. 10 of them will acknowledge with signed off last year about a cabinet that they would become settlements. and the 1st one of those is past the military hurdle, and the ministry signed it off. it's interesting, the business just happened now because it's only on monday that we wrapped up from the hague 6 days of hearings. and from the international court of justice, by nearly 50 countries argued as various reasons but principally, but increased an expanding occupation by as rightly settlers of the westbank is making it impossible for the palestinians to have a functioning state on exercise that right to self determination. now it was left with the us and the u. k. a little bit have to find the list task of trying to defend the occupation saying you should be left to cover an un system security council resolutions, wherever israel and these and the pilots in each it negotiate together. that's how we should progress. we shouldn't be relying on the international court, but yet,
7:12 pm
even though the us and the u. k, all you thought is riley, still ignoring those resolutions by expanding in the occupied westbank, which is why the palestinians said they had no option. but to go to the international court because of exactly what his role is doing now in the occupied church. and bernard smith reporting live there from occupied east jerusalem. thank you very much. i in northern does a hunger is worsening. most palestinian families there once a day at most inter volume people are receiving just a trickle of humanitarian aid, finding food as a daily fight for survival. mitree ment, vanco reports before we wake up to the screams of 4 children asking us for food. they ask us for food night and day. it's a busy morning for my mood and his family and the carriage where they live. the women are cooking. these are pancakes made of animal feed. here in jamalia,
7:13 pm
they're lucky to find anything to eat, haven't even met. but what my wife and daughters are cooking. we spend 4 days looking for this just to get one key to my wife and i will not eat because it will all go to the children and grandchildren. i cannot eat when they are thought for months now and old and garza has been old but cut off from humanitarian aid. survival is a daily challenge. i have not been shot in subject then. 2 months ago, we were on the brink of a famine. now we have no real seminar, you cannot find a kilo of flour or any food if you do the process a so expensive in this market might seem busy, but only at 1st glance the vendors but barely any bias. these spices not t, nothing substantial. this man is selling carrots and says they're affordable, but nobody's buying palestinians here. have nothing left. i haven't because i'm not
7:14 pm
going to go to feel ashamed. do not tell customers how much it costs. they looked at me in law offering if i'm serious, i'm no longer sending pumpkins or anything expensive. it's enough to meet so limits for $0.25 a key low because they're not gonna invest. the thing is we h, clovers, and grass. our children have died from starvation. we have run out of things to eat, and we are starving. we have no money to buy anything. everything is so expensive, which we use to buy for a dollar. now costs $15.00 for these children and their families a ceasefire. is the final hope at least then it should be easier to move around, gaza searching for food to make it through the day. to meet you meant that didn't go out to 0 more than 30000 palestinians have now been killed in guys. this is israel launched it's war in october. we will come back to that. however,
7:15 pm
as i hinted at when i was speaking with bernard, us, president joe biden has come out and said that the ceasefire deal he expected to happen by monday may no longer happy. and we're going to be able to go live now to kimberly how good. kimberly you're in washington dc. sorry, a bit of a scramble. there is where got a lot of balls up in the air and what exactly. let's start there. kimberly, what exactly did the us presidency the yeah, the us presidents a you many of our viewers, a little a call earlier in the week had intimated that he had a lot of optimism that negotiations had been going well, according to his national security adviser. and but he was feeling the prospect of some sort of temporary cease fire that could last a number of weeks that would allow for aid into gaza. that would allow for the release of some captives. that could happen as early as the end of the weekend.
7:16 pm
possibly monday. well now the us president is walking those comments back. he made those comments to reporters as he was headed towards marine one. he's heading to the southern board of the united states with mexico. he was asked about that a promise or suggestion that he made about a temporary cease fire. he says, hope springs eternal, but it may not be by monday, he was also asked about the killing of more than a 100 palestinians who were waiting for aid in gaza. and he is also suggesting that there may be 2 competing versions about what happened potentially suggesting that there, there may be some sort of defense about the is really soldiers involved in that. yeah, kimberly we, we heard right with our correspondence, bernard who isn't occupied east jerusalem. and with tara who's in gaza, we essentially heard those 2 versions, the palestinians saying that they were fired upon. many of those that we else has 0
7:17 pm
spoken to felt say they felt it was a trap. when they got to those trucks, they were fired upon. more than a 100 people were killed is really version is there was some commotion around the trucks. the is really soldiers felt threatened and that's when they opened fire and does, has the president said whether he essentially believes one version over another the us president didn't even sort of suggest what those 2 narratives were right. but what we know from the us president is that traditionally he has always given be, is really government plausible deniability. and that has been the big concern, not only for us voters, but for many within his administration. but he has always given be, is really military the benefit of the doubt, even when it involves us citizens. and so that has been the big concern and that is what he's taking a lot of criticism for. so the us president,
7:18 pm
once again by being ambiguous about these 2 narratives is once again, given the opportunity for the suggestion that the is really military may not be comfortable when it comes to this incident. okay, that's really interesting context. kimberly thank you very much. in the coming hours as you work your sources, if you find out anything more about this, about the thinking within the white house on this event and, and what impact it may or may not have on c, spy or talks will be interested in a thing. you can report, thank you very much. i are still ahead on alice's 0 palestinians living in rural areas of the occupied west bank, say a tax bodies. really settlers have increased since the war on gaza began will be back after a short break. the the
