concern, gross over the number of civilian casualties. after speaking to his rarely leaders in tel aviv defense secretary lloyd austin said the us would continue to arm as allied. a spite renewed global calls for a ceasefire. israel says it will gradually transition to a new phase of its war against the loss was carried out the october 7th. her attack that sparked the slightest conflict shop and even leave these people in golf saw center to be updated by the more and the loss of their loved ones. and as in many of the past is try the strikes. many of those who are to seems like these are increasing pressure on it's trying to predict civilians. a call of equity 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. the am i brought some more to some a neighbor or is it that i brought the volta 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 palestinian refugees, had sworn the coffins, could start dying of hunger disease and beat immunity along with the

eat and drink because that's what the crossing drugs have also started entering from is trying to be accurate them show them but the, you and see if the conditions of the founder and suitable for delivering humanitarian supplies. many see a horse and fighting is the only solution. and there to go. that's now being a good by many of 5th strains there lies before we can speak to the w for respondents on your cramer, who is covering all of this for us from jerusalem. tanya, what was the reaction on these really side? after all, since visit of the like i say you could say there were no surprises here at least publicly. we heard the us defense secretary look again, read to right. and you know, the unshakable commitment the unmistakable relationship with as well as supporting it. and it's for a efforts, but he also called again for more humanitarian aid that needs to be getting into

gauze and also the protection of the civilians. and the lead up to this uh visit. there was a lot of talk about that through us. would like to see a timeline or like to assess, you know, where this war stands, but we didn't hear anything publicly where both countries are differing. at least in public was again that a, the defense secretary talked about post score calls are saying that needs to be the name of a 2 state solution, a concept that has been talked about here for the past several decades. that'd be also heard a 5 minutes to been. you mentioned y'all over the weekend again saying that he was actually the one preventing a palestinian state. so this is what we, when they going forward, you know, talking about what will happen next. this is where both countries have a different view of the human security process. it has to vote on a space, fire resolution today and global calls for relief. we heard in the report from 1000

civilians are growing louder and louder and within us that going to keep arming israel despite all criticism. how effective can all the international pressure be? so well, we understand that the, the vote and the un security council was postponed on monday to a later a today. apparently, i mean their reports it to get also the us on board last time the security council voted at the united states and put in the veto. but again, all these international efforts, these calls for at least the policy usually stopped short and quoting for a ceasefire altogether, it's more a pause and fighting, also possibly to restore negotiations to release more of the is really hostages. that could be a result of that. they don't seem to have and direct impact right now on the is really position. we heard a prime minister been, you mean that to me on saying again, the pos states that they want to continue to push ahead that the,

the strategy of maximum pressure would, would, if needed to huge results to eliminate him, us to talk to him us. so this comes, of course, on the back to of, of a very, very dire situation for the civilian population. and garza was over 80 percent according to the united nations. of people are displaced multiple times and of course, amounting desktop every day to the corresponding tanya kramer. interest 11, thank you as own way. and here's a look at some of the other headlines making use around the world today. a day after north korea carried out another test of its most powerful ballistic miss on leader kim jong own has said it was a response to you with possibility state media release these pictures of the sound which can potentially reach north america. washington warned that a nuclear attack 5 coming down would mean the end of the came rushing. steve
