1:02 am
which appeared to show its fighters targeting is really soldiers in separate incidents in rasa. it is okay. so today we hesitate, another heavy price and i'll just throw in defense of a homeland and what it is. a deep sadness with great grief about my head, with all the citizens of israel, among the full of a row of glorious hot breaks with a terrible loss for the entire people of his ro, how during the day of families in this difficult time. and i pay tribute to upgrade warriors and leaders engaged in the sacred mission of defeating the enemies. i'm returning the kidnapped. when the price is high, we will remember what we're fighting for. we're outside thing to insure our existence and all future responses. randy faust has launched an operation in the vicinity with the 8 soldiers were killed. residential areas were targeted throughout the day with strikes and as hillary shows, at least 9 palestinians were killed. the enter the north and gaza city is rarely
1:03 am
bombings, have killed at least $29.00 palestinians, and injured dozens of all those 3 residential buildings were destroyed in the i'll shoot you an a tough of neighborhoods a short while ago, i spoke with him to salute about b is rarely governments reaction to the death of the age soldiers. she's reporting from the to damian capital a mine because he's real has shut down or does he or is opperation in the country? lee is really army says that an initial probe into the incident shows that it combat engineering vehicle carrying all 8 of those soldiers exploded. they're looking into the possibility perhaps that it was an engine tank missile that was fired. the initial investigation shows that it was some sort of explosive that was either underneath the vehicle or place on it by perhaps a, him, a spider. but nonetheless, these really armies saying that this was an attack him as confirming that it was there fighters that launched this attack we've been hearing from is really
1:04 am
politicians across the political lyle. let's begin with is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu. who said that even though there been heavy losses in this war and today specifically the war and the fighting must continue until all of the goals are achieved. nearly 9 months into this war. israel has not accomplished what it set out to back in october. there are still more than a $120.00 is really captive still being held inside of gaza. and since the ground invasion into gauze that had began late last year that the total of is really soldiers is now a $308.00 honda. is there a sense that there is growing pressure on the government from not only the families of the captives, but now the families of the soldiers? and there's been a lot of mounting pressure on these really government in the last several months. and that's because the government has not showed any signs that it's willing to accept a deal any time. there is a talk of
1:05 am
a ceasefire deal or negotiations. these really isn't from us. cannot seem to agree with these really is pointing the finger at him us every time, but families of is really captives. and in fact, the hostage and missing families for them spokesperson just tonight has said that israel cannot win against chemist in gaza, essentially, calling for it into the war calling for a cease fire deal. but it's not the only thing demonstrators are calling for. they're also wanting to see new governance in israel. they want to see new leadership. they believe that benjamin netanyahu should not just be replaced, but over thrown and saying that his policies have not let israel in the right direction. and that the way the war effort is going is not one that is going to seem victorious for these really. so the list of demands is ongoing from these demonstrators as protest, continue across israel tonight. the reminder, the is really government has bad delta 0 from operating in israel and extended that
1:06 am
decision. that's why honda joined us from jordan of all israel launched a series of and strikes on rafa following the attack on his soldiers and no hope that he has moved from the bullet in central gaza. mendoza airstrikes have been intensified in the same exact way a place where the incident we know that at least 8 and 8 soldiers have been killed in this incident. and we don't know how this incident takes place . so the next hour they're going to review a lot, but the area that was targeted is on it's in the western parts of grandma, and that area has hundreds of thousands of movies that were this name in the area. and also i need to clarify that the system is not very far away from the area and where there are lots of people sitting there. now we need to know that
1:07 am
there have been no ambulances, no has a care works, is a military. that is, we're able to reach that area because the is there any forces we're targeting, anyone who keeps but we know that there has been a lot of massive air stripes and a lot of massive exposure and targeting our residential building. most people in the frozen units reported that they were hearing big stages and they were seeing the black smoke in the side unless we mentioned it is really forces have been targeting residential areas with strikes. and the tillery across, gone to buildings, had been blown up in the southern city of augusta. at least 9 palestinians were killed in those attacks. the buildings that are still standing all being leveled is rarely sold as use a bulldozer to destroy a home in the cell. also some area near rough of hundreds of thousands of palestinians have flat attacks in the city. please raise the spokesman. daniel had got, he says his forces,
1:08 am
i'm making significant advances in rough or low bow shovel seamlessly. i'll talk about the feel. it's clear to us that we need to defeat the rough obligate. i think that this task is progressing and to determine the professional manner. unfortunately, because even alongside the heavy pressure we say today, the chief minutes in rough. uh a very significant and yes, we're getting closer to disbanding the rep, obligate. i'm off. let me go over here is a scholar in middle east and security studies at the conic endowment for international peace. he says, israel is failing to achieve its stated goals and gaza and i think it all comes down to what you define a significant achievement. seems rabies have put a pretty high bar for what they call victory in gaza. since the beginning of this from bard went of the strip that the gun in october, and i don't think that they're really going to get any closer to victory of the, the way in which they have to find victory as complete,
1:09 am
removal of governance and military capacity of homeless and as we've just seen, the military capacity of, from us is far from being removed. it's been degraded significantly. so essentially, even, but the idea that you can completely remove the military capacity while the same time continuing this sort of environment where people are going to be very easily recruited into operations are resisting this race, i think is really a short sights that i don't think that this is a military assessment in any case, i think this is a political decision by then that's an yahoo government that realizes that they, they really don't have much of and then game when it comes to this particular quote unquote operation and gaza. except to just keep on going in order to maintain the survival of the nothing yahoo government. we have been reporting on the death. so think 8 soldiers killed in southern gaza. that is the deadliest attack on his very forces since the beginning of the year. what does that say about israel's
1:10 am
capabilities in gaza at this point? well, i think what you've seen is the is really is have gone into gaza. um there's been a tremendous civilian death told among palestinians that live in garza, over the past 9 months. we're talking at least 40000 people dead, the majority of whom are a civilian. and so i think that the, the way in which this war has been prosecuted over the past 9 months has come under heavy criticism. internationally to the point that is l is currently in the dock at the international court of justice for genocide is a the suggestion that the international criminal court will be issuing warrants uh for the defense minister on the prime minister of israel. so i don't think that objectively speaking, we can view with these really operation as being particularly successful and certainly not in keeping with the the rules and regulations of international
1:11 am
humanitarian law. garza city is rarely bombings, have killed at least $29.00 palestinians, and injured thousands more. 3 residential buildings were targeting the i'll shoot you an on 2 neighborhoods that both my son and us only 12 years old, was killed by these very missiles. he was unsuspectingly sleeping. innocent people like him are the targets of because ready, occupation forces on this harley day. my young boy joins 15000 other children murdered by the israelis. my other son was injured and is receiving treatment. yet we all holding all ground stayed focused on our homeland security in the v is a columnist at parents and also of the punishment of casa. he says, this war doesn't have an end as a goal of total victory is unachievable. that it's not the unprecedented, but they do that very meeting for the bigger even though let's remember stem that they so jane the brooks, does it working today?
1:12 am
but it is the brands and 8 soldiers is a big, big price for the society, especially when it gets installed a total number in the adult. and as most of the reach day of the day, almost every day we hear about it also. so, oh, for soldiers and more and more deeper it is when i ask what or do when this is in this, this or we might become an endless lot of or if it's a ration wage, as strong as is really all me use the various from us bonuses can always do and some of tash and it's, and then the rest of the ation each, each know where any decent lives there. we never be a cheer of this or think i'm was told to evict story. the pride me just. busy let them, you know, i'm speaking about and the we,
1:13 am
we know the see to you. it would go on its own and don't do is right and come us. but maybe isn't. we realize that it leads to nowhere and it must stopping any price . as the us military says, it will temporarily relocate to the humanitarian p a. it builds off the coast of cancer to move it back to us, started israel as a precaution to prevent damage by predicted high seas. the projects cost $320000000.00. it was possibly destroyed in may. shortly after its construction, a small amount of aid has been arriving through us since last month. but 8 organizations say it wouldn't be needed. israel opens land crossings to lead trucks into garza early and my colleagues volleyball. people spoke to you and assess spokesman. james elder ended obama. she started by asking him about the situation on the ground. this is daya. it should surprise no one. but it is much worse because it can't. in the last 6 weeks,
1:14 am
every single day we've had the bombardments the drones, the relentless attacks, the denials of aid. so it shouldn't surprise any one, but it should. it should break our hearts and i understood blood on our humanity that it's being allowed to get to this point. we are now to a point where, where yeah, where i'm outside of hospital again is it was on the hospital as soon as i walked in, probably as soon as i walked in, i found a little boy ali who 5 days ago with a sleep in the family home, when it was struck in the next thing, he felt 3 as low as a ladder and rumble. i met his mother, 2 stories about she explained the 2 other siblings have been killed. this has gone on for the last 6 weeks valley. this is going on for $250.00 days now of tools that sweltering hate people say to be old. people must be used to that. yes, i used to live with thousands and used to the 8 in the family home in the home with the air conditioning in the home and ceiling fans not intense crime together in a breath with spice,
1:15 am
with 40 degree hate on sand. this is what people out there being denied i there being that odd protection being denied, didn't need dignity and was the last 3 dies valley have a sleep 1st because of the palms and the drones. it's $250.00 days for the civilians here. so yes, everyone here physically, psychologically, is somehow just holding on. i'll ask you a bit more about the impact of the war on children in just a moment, but i just wanted to get to age because you mentioned a day how much of it has gone into guys in the last 2 days, i understand you are part of a convoy of a truck. so we're trying to get into the cost of ship. can you describe to us the process of that? what it takes to get those a trucks in to da signed? how many have gone in and add these past few days? it's, it's a very complicated process to get in because of the, the restrictions uh, uh, put it put on top of eyes, but we do it. we know the paperwork, we know the, the hoops to jump through, but it is very difficult to get ideas. for example, in my humanitarian agents,
1:16 am
guardian hoff as many trucks of i valley as in april half as many when we have this critical nutrition situation. why was that the case? that was the case because in may of course, we had the rough offensive, the limited quote unquote and limited offensive and rough. all that meant that led to the displacement of a 1000000 people. so the left side is coming in, but it's not just getting it in. it's when we did it in its value show, we can get it across the javascript without i'd work has been to more i'd work. is it been killed in this war? been any war, any role since the advent of the united nations? it's extraordinary. it is an incredibly difficult place to work, but palestinians and foreigners are very brave on the front lines once you did it in. if we look valley as to wednesday, a few days ago, there was a mission of units. if we were taking a truck full of nutritional and medical supplies for 10000 children, nutritional and medical supplies 410000 children, we had all the approvals,
1:17 am
we were going to die. the city from dairy butler in the front of here. it's basically a fortune shalom. it's a round trip. it took 13 hours and we spent each of those around check points. audrey around paperwork, was it a truck? was it event? all sorts of he said, he said the reality is, this truck was been denied access. so those 10000 children did not get that. and now, you know, simple, go back again. but it's not as easy as just returning next day because of how dangerous it is a place to upright. remember and use realize the occupying power has the legal responsibility to, to facilitate that i, we must have a day goals with homeboys. right? you know, simple. so does the set of tires, can we do water? we do protection, we need to be everywhere. so that was denied, but folly. there is an even more preacher doc aspect to that mission. as we stood on the coastal on there for hours and hours and hours, i was watching them and i was watching many, yes, i will probably lawyers and engine is in a pos, live with a single fishing net age just trying to catch a few fish,
1:18 am
pull their families suddenly takes time from the, from the very large is riley check point. a tech, sorry, attack time. next thing to every, all the fishermen played as to fishermen said they were shots that was shown on the beach. i was rather un agencies, doctors, and power medics. i immediately rang authorities to get us permission to access these people. in case there was a sign of law to immediately then medical care that was denied that help was denied finally sally half an hour later as those man laid down those men who were no doubt someone's brother, father and son, as they live, they are the other fishermen, their family, their friends, 2 party bags that we had. i went down the beach, i'm drop roll them off. i sold them one man had been shot in the back. and now the man who still had a fishing it round his foot were short in the neck. i know that because i soul, that's only because we bore witness to that. these are not unique events on the
1:19 am
jobs, a strip. how incredibly side james, you talked about the children and meeting children who were injured in recent is really a tax and down by where you are right now. there is the impact of the war, of course, the children being killed, they being made. but there's also now nutrition which is spreading among children fast and, and reaching devastating in an unprecedented levels across casa, because as we mentioned, of a lack of humanitarian aid and the restrictions on a going into that into what impact is this having on the children now and what impact is it going to have on them in the future? the impact on children, whether it's no job to know how to bombardments or the all idea that a teenage girl or grandmother accused old the old, i made each get a shower. the audio the disease is tied the roads, and yes, we had stabilize inches, satellites, agent, to stabilize ation, sandra sally, they are critical places for those children with some of the most lethal forms of
1:20 am

1:26 am
a choice. his opponents say he's gambling with democracy and the future of thoughts . especially butler ultra sarah paris, ernie i spoke to random murray who is a specialist in french politics and professor at queen mary university of london. she says, the rising popularity of the far right signal is disappointed with the president emanuel macro of the for right. it has been growing in popularity for a long time in front. they have nothing yet been in a position to win an election. and that's what makes this selection different sort of as pre to assess is they haven't had a natural force previously to take the presidency. and normally the parliamentary elections come straight off to the presidential ones and it's difficult for anyone else to win them. but a mid term election like this gives them a real opportunity, especially when they've just done so well in the european elections. and pose currently suggested that going to be the largest party in parliament. the probably as the leader of a home called them. and rather than having their own majority. and so the real
1:27 am
question now is whether the other policies on the political spectrum, can you nice against them, or whether they would end up with a situation of divide and conquer professor, if you could set the scene for us. exactly. how did they become so influential? is it a case of disappointment with my crone and his government? is it a case of them perhaps becoming more palatable? moving more to the center? what exactly has gone on here? it's probably the pushing the pool. so the, the full factor is that they have worked very hard on trying to soften the image. what they cool, i'm d, demonize ational or detoxification, if you will. they've tried to soften that image on areas such as a guy writes women's rights and they've got a useful you. these are jewels and found out that he's 28 years old. he's cars, magic, he's bringing and new electorate so they weren't previously able to reach. and at the same time, a lot of people are also not facing so much for them as against everybody else.
1:28 am
they've become very disillusioned with president mac probably has been growing in on popularity. he pushed through some very unpopular pension reforms early this year. and they also become disillusioned with the mainstream, left and mainstream, right to kind of pos into 2017 and a struggling to gain the, the previous success. so people are unhappy and they feel that the quality of life is pulling on this. no one else has been able to find the answers that starting to say, well, maybe it's time to give the far right to to still ahead on the 0 presidents, the lovely zalinski joins world leaders in switzerland or p summit or ukraine. russia wasn't invited and the you case princess of wales makes her 1st public appearance since being diagnosed with count

the course in japan. this is the west, this month of the is it's may be no surprise, this is happening, but that you watch the extension. that sort of rain is happening in self and child's flooding here. and then the full costs will go up to near the more major islands in japan. so funding is prosperity and congress cheaper, for example, on monday. but north of all, that is fine, warm and sunny. 37 invasion a meeting of minds all over the world. the rise of 80 for the climate catastrophe. where do you put the resulting anger? well, i'm hoping we can use that as the fuel to change society for the meta musical innovative brian, you know, meets renowned economies hardoon chain, taught to for most of the funniest economies in the world. i don't have any competition studio, i'd be unscripted on outages era. you will see a duty and

a slow day the the school in july, the refugee comes, serves as a shelter for the space. peoples and water tank is like this and limit holding gaza has been decimated and is really a tax restarted or infrastructure needed to sustain life. and very little late is allowed to reach the region. the most. um, what you see is a living proof that is the vitreous suffering, not only from the shortage of drinking water, but also the accumulating waste, infected sewage. above all, our homes were destroyed. but the occupation, are we a suffering or friends or for me to tend to find someone leveled homes, is not just the lack of food. our children are starving to death. in many places, this is how children have been drinking from puddles metix aid. they may survive the thirst for monday and so we can disease the humans agency for children units have called the since this non me deprivation as mount nutrition could be of thousands of children within weeks. of stuff you have to use,
1:34 am
riley is destroyed. no idea. hey, mr. walter wells to we cannot feed our children and now we can not find a drop of clean water. this is not nice. even animals have a better life compared to us. we a butchered, if not by the use ready bombardment by salvation and lack of water. well, i can say is it gold as a shield? here's our rock. we are standing a ground with patients and fortitude. fortitude is much hard to for children, many of whom have lost parents. most of the displays have to walk long distances to get some water. some kind of thing is that result into drinking sea working as people close to the shore have been using and created brackish water for months. cards, surface water supply lines. in addition to wells is really strikes and incursions destroyed this out of nation units and its troops a blocking fuel. in systematic attacks on a convoys, even drinking water is prevented from reaching people. during the last 8 months,
1:35 am
soldiers incentives have posted numerous videos of them destroying what the d. a trickled in, including water bottles, the latest you and report to the accused. israel of extermination. the government's policy to collectively denied food and water to gaza was announced in october. when the defense minister declared there will be no electricity, no foods on no fuel and mine and daily. and that policy is still backed by international leaders and supporters. cutting off time, cutting off water. so cool. i think the israel does have that right and children may be forced to punch theaters like this. the impunity to impose of famine is supported israel's right to defend itself. some of them javi other their peruse. congress has been voting on a series of controversial laws, which critics say will fast track the bodies or thor terry impala. let's take
1:36 am
a look now at what the constitutional amended will mean if it passes in the 2nd sitting expected next month. the new legislation would eliminate key judicial bodies and undermine the independence of electro authorities threatening the legitimacy of future elections. it looks to restrict civic space, including the freedom of expression and right to protest. and it would give the government broad power to control non government organizations and undermine investigations into organized crime and human rights violations. let's bring in one puppy a who is the america's deputy director of human rights watch. he joins us from washington, d. c. thank you so much for joining us. let's set the scene 1st for our audience. how did talk of this constitutional amendment come to be thank you for having me, what we're seeing it better, or is the low may there's from the, from the right. i'm for the sense there are joining forces not to unite the country to insure their own. the only the end they do need before their cronies. this is
1:37 am
