as nasa passed 19400 postings or shocked and increase these people in god's authenticity updated by the more and the loss of their loved ones. and as in many of the past is strive the strikes. many of those who are children seems like these are increasing pressure and it's trying to predict civilians. according of accord at the us defense secretary lloyd austin, texting palestinian civilians and gaza is both a moral duty and a strategic imperative. so we will continue to stand up for israel's bedrock right to defend itself. and we will also continue to urge the protection of civilians during conflict and to increase the flow of humanitarian aid integration. is trying to save it is targeting come off militants. but the fighting has led to one of the

worst humanitarian crisis ever in gaza. food and clean water has become scarce for the strips over 2000000 people. and according to the un, 90 percent of the population has been displaced by brought some more to for monday, but over the i brought the will to and we need to do. we don't have a single job. hello to left. there was nothing a tool laser. when i went to the head of the you went agency for fun is to name refugees has worn the costs in school. start dying of hunger disease and be immunity. along with the eat and drink because that's what the crossing drugs have also started entering from is trying to be a good. i'm show them but the you and see if the conditions of the founder and suitable for delivering humanitarian supplies mainly see a horse and fighting us the only solution. and there to cause that's not being

a good by many of his strange realize. well, the un security council has postponed to vote on a ceasefire resolution until later on choose day. the deputies janelle de la on told me earlier why the spend away swell. the un security council has postpone the vote on the request of the united arab emirates, the u. i. e, of course, is the one who introduced this draft resolution calling for an urgent cessation of hostilities in gaza. and apparently this has now happened in order to give the negotiating parties more room to compromise on the wording of the draft resolution . so especially if a u. s. has taken issue with the fact that in the draft it doesn't uh, specifically condemn homeless for its actions on october 7. rather, it condemns terrorist acts more generally and calls for the release of the hostages
2:05 am
. but here's the interesting part. so the us has said that it can to support a reference to the cessation of hostilities, but it might be amenable to a reference saw on in the wording a reference to a suspension of hostilities. and that's interesting because it represents a slow shift, perhaps in the position of the us. if we recall earlier this month, it blocked a similar resolution perhaps. now if it is going to support us as references to suspension in our studies, it might mean that it's days of simply vetoing the resolutions are over. and in the broader picture, it could be a reflection of a growing and patience with the israeli government. as the biden administration tries to put more pressure on israel to do more to protect civilians, but as he said there earlier as the the death toll approaches 20000 according to the hamas run health industry. that pressure appears to be very,

into gaza into something much more targeted and narrow intelligence driven aimed specifically at homeless leaders. but it is unclear how much israel is taking on is taking on board at the moment. it is not clear whether israel and the u. s. are on the same page with regard to how to prosecute this more with regard to the way forward for gaza. and the associated timelines. however, given all of that, even as the pressure on the bite in administration mounts to push israel to do more in the face of these mounting casualties, to do more, to protect these casualties. there's, there's still seems to be very little appetite in washington to attach conditions on the aid that is something to israel. but the longer this goes on, the more prominent discussion point that is going to be here, the deputies, janelle de la, i'm in dc. thanks very much,
