and emphasized with need to protect the people of cause a and increase aid. we know that facing anatomy that embeds itself among civilians who hides in and fires from schools from hospitals. makes this incredibly challenging. but the daily tal on ceilings and gaza, particularly on children, is far too high. 3 months of fighting have left to gauze the devastated of thousands of gauze. instead, blinking code on israel to start planning for peace. he said he must do more to support to monitor with palestinian leaders to help new settlements on stem pouch set to live islands. it's our unique bond in america's and during commitment to the people of israel. that allows indeed demands that we're as forthright as possible in the moments where the stakes are highest. when the choices that are the most, this is one of those moments develop a round has raised to those stakes defense minister. you'll have guidelines as that

increasing the pressure on to around was critical to preventing the war from spreading iran, which back. so mass supports and network is minutes in groups throughout the region . previously, rebels and yemen have a tax and seized ships in the red sea. his ball of forces in southern lebanon, a farming rocket. so these rail, as while in iraq and syria minutes into line to around have attacked us troops with wilkinson drive and were determined again, that we uh, nazi escalation, that we don't have the conflict just read. and we've made that very clear. but of course, if our personnel, if our forces are, are threatened or attacked, we'll take appropriate steps. we'll respond blink, and we'll continue his to on wednesday. he's due to travel to the occupied westbank for talks of palestinian president mach mood of bus. it's going to be now here in

the studio is our middle east. alice shawnee was honest, shining was here with me. we were listening to that press conference from and to the blinking. let's talk about that. the biggest takeaways here did you notice a change in the us is patients with these really prime minister when it comes to making a way out of this more and gosh, what was great undertone. we've been, 1st of all, we've been seeing the americans and sending these messages and last days before the visit, hinting of edmonton. you know that they are very serious and they're intense to move forward with a long lasting fund for peace in the region. with all the amount of moderate nations, the arab nations that are on board. so we're seeing it blinking, seeing the same things again and again, very diplomatically, as a teacher is not enough for no reason. he is the chief diplomatic for the americans, but we hear behind closed doors that the patients is finding out. there's more more pressure for israel to decide. is it going to go for escalation or it is going to turn its back on the, on the opportunities to the americans offering for

a national regional package of social security and long since she's the secretary of state. what struck me as he said, that it is real, have to be a partner for the palestinians and the palestinians. they also have to be a reliable partner for these re lease on a path to but good faith, right? first of all, state 100 pounds in your state or 2 words that the missing you out does not like for like sing together combined. and the word partner is a very, very contested where ring comes to these really tell us any and conflict. uh and you know, the idea of having a park or having no partner, we've seen it already by going back to the prime minister who box form is, are the prime minister talking about? there's no parking back then about and yes, there are 5 who is still the head of the passenger, tory authority back then trying to bring back the term partner and the need for partnership into the discussion is not in vain. you know, they're choosing this word very carefully, they want, as rarely to start realizing this place, where are you living in this region?

nobody's going anywhere is really, is, are there else and you're there, you gotta find a way to make it work. you gotta make a partnership out of this situation. you gotta use this tragedy the way the american seed in and turn it into an opportunity. and he also mentioned what's going on in the west bank. and that, that also struck me there. the current, the, you know, you can't, is, it has to be low in order in the west bank. part of the americans are very concerned because we've seen to tell you how so as tonchee against anything connected to the palestinian authority and thinking says is willing to stop under cutting the palestinian authority. it is in israel's best interest to let the palestinian authority strive because of the security coordination because of the people that are happy that are satisfied that are working, that are part of society or not people that are busy too much with power. and we've been seeing it again and again and again. and this is what they're trying to convince this and you know, in, but this is breaking some of his more, you know, the objection of the hour has to this idea of pallets in your state to. this is very deep. we've seen it as part of as, as a stone of is a f as policy for last 15 years. and if we're talking about less of

a conflict in regards to the threat on the board in northern border with 11 on that is actually even a cuter than it was, let's say a few weeks ago. isn't it? correct? i've seen it last week since the assassination of a and the who we, he's a is a chief the him off for my offer to. and it's clear that things are more tense in the last days. there's been, we've seen americans of talking about their, for your defense and how we might be using this escalation for political reasons against their wishes. they would want to see everything scaling down, and they would definitely would not want to see a spill over into lebanon, into she, i access, connecting to your on and so forth. it seems from his response to some of the question duties couldn't he's content with the answers he's been hearing from his release about them not really wanting to see escalation up. we're still going to be very careful not wanting as commission to having escalation to not necessarily coo correlate, and then the least these things are so tens of can go either way. any moment i'm gonna leave dallas johnny was honest with always johnny could i have your lincoln

yes to prove the needed cherry on the streets. so it has been some kind of resolution. again, this is the measurement from the government. it. so this is one of the filings up for that we have been seeing since early this morning. yeah, and i, i understand that the president of ecuador is facing a lot of pressure to restore security in the country. talk to me about that. i mean, what is the security situation there? i haven't had like a real secured here from the past or 2 years. actually the violence is getting bigger on the streets and right now uh from last night it's the k is everywhere. we have had one things, uh, cars loading, there, shootings and different cities. we have had, the jails is listed as the jail. they are making demands and everything is

a little bit county and the government is not being very clear about what is being done. but for now, right now, the president just changed the executive order from last night and they are kind of declaring war against the is uh, jones. and he is uh, organized crying organizations. so it'd be this last minute. i'm trying to understand exactly what the government's trying to do right now. yeah, i mean i, i know the picture is still unclear. um, but we do know that there was an imprisoned drug cartel boss who escaped from prison. i think he's known as the veto in the country, and that prompted the president to say that he wants to regain control of ecuador as prisons from criminal gangs. i guess people in the outside are wondering who is in control of ecuador right now. is it the government, or is it the drug cartels as well? the price of the presence of some of the government hasn't had any control over it
