the the, this is the w news live from berlin katasha. i'm fronts broker, a new, a deal for gaza can tell us as the agreement we'll see the delivery of more humanitarian aid. and the medical supplies to people in the gaza strip, including is really hostages being held captive by hum months. also coming up on the program, i'm stapling controls on israel to help facilitate a pathway to a palestinian states. speaking of the world economic forum, lincoln said israel should help not him to the palestinian authority will get more from a correspondent in douglas. the

manuscript is mckinnon. welcome to the program. israel says it has eliminated what it calls a terrorist cell in an strike on the ballasa refugee camp in the occupied westbank . this message released by the is really military shows. this hot, which talk is, is a call moving through the comp in the city of nablus. i'm gonna to footage, posted on social media, shows the vehicle on file is or else as the leader of a palestinian tower and that what was inside the call. it claims the group was planning an imminent terrorist attack. meanwhile, katasha says it has broke good, a deal between israel and him off for the delivery of humanitarian aid and medication to civilians in side galls. and now this would include as riley's who are being held captive by hum us, which is considered as a terrorist organization. by many countries, the 1st supplies are expected to start arriving in gaza today. and we can get more

from shayna. lowe, who is from the norwich, will norwegian refugee council, which operates in gauze, and china joins us now from jerusalem. china, tell us how much of a difference this deal might make for palestinians and garza. well, any amount of mandatory need any increase in humanitarian aid is needed. the however, i think that the scope of what of the, of the needs in guys that people are in need of food, shelter, clean water medications, medical supplies, the same things we've been demanding for the last 3 months. we need a huge increase of major scaling up of 8 in order to really make a dent in the, in the tremendous needs. does that there are 2 things about this deal that i think are important to note. the 1st is that we really need to, to not be linking humanitarian aid to political agreements. israel of the occupying power has a responsibility to provide the necessities for, for sustaining life,

for survival in gaza. and we shouldn't be tying these the provision of assistance to innocent civilians, 2300000 innocent civilians who have nothing to do with this conflict. other than being trapped there on, on political deals and negotiations age should have unfettered access in the gaza. and that brings me to the 2nd point, which is that it's not just about giving the end to gaza, but it's also about getting a to all areas of garza work so desperately needed, including northern guards that were the un has only been able to deliver about a quarter or only had approval of about a quarter of the, the convoys to the north in the last 2 weeks that they have asked to coordinate with the israelis. as you say, the need is huge. tell us what kind of aid, what kind of medication is most needed. now. every thing is needed in terms of medication and medical supplies. we need medications to treat chronic

disease, an illness, people who are in need of dialysis and have kidney failure. people with diabetes, all of those medications are in short supply and desperately needed. on top of that, we can forget that they're still ongoing hostilities ongoing airstrikes, ongoing round operations inside the gaza strip. and so we need medical supplies to treat those who are wounded. we need medical uh anesthesia so that people can, that can undergo surgery was pain killers, many people, both injured and pregnant. going to receive spectrum's have been, have been going through surgery without anesthesia over the last 2 or 3 months. so, so really all medications, all medical supplies are in short supply and gaza and we need an an hour he did throughout the entire grab a spring. trying to come, i ask you, as you, as you mentioned there is on going is really been bothering and how does your organization manage to provide health to people in gauze or in these conditions?

it is extremely challenging and it's not just about the bombardment. it's also that we've been under communications blackout with garza and had very minimal contact with our staff since friday of last week. it's now the 5th day since this blackout began, that that we've had limited connectivity, so between ongoing and hostilities and, and, and difficulties are communicating and coordinating and response. it's very difficult to reach those and need a n r c up in our region. refugee council, we've had to limit our assistance really to southern gaza, to the rasa area. we're over a 1000000 people have sought refuge or there and living and seeking refuge. but it's, it's incredibly difficult to, to really have a, a concerted humanitarian response in garza under such conditions and, and particularly to reach those areas north of warranty garza in, in got the city and, and the northern guys, a strip china low from the norwegian refugee council china,

thanks so much for your time. now speaking of the world economic forum in double see us secretary of stays on the blinking said that he cannot think of a time when there's been a greater multiplicity of challenges. in a much anticipated interview, he described the conflict and gaza as got read chung and said what is needed as a palestinian state. that gives people what they want and works with israel to be effective. he also talked about taiwan and said that despite differences with china, they're all opportunities for corporation. i spoke to correspondent ben sewland in double a little earlier and asked him for an update the shuttle diplomacy continues. and yeah, and it's diplomacy on numerous fronts, not just the china challenges, but also the real complex uh, played out in ukraine, trying to fend off the russians. and the guys are war. uh, so

a very tricky time. high level meetings on the old levels here in davos. but praise coming from blinking for the bravery of you and aid workers in gaza. he said it's a troubled situation and certainly wasting on president of numbers of 8 workers dying in this conflict. unprecedented numbers of medics journalists and palestinian civilians, wisconsin going to be deep following this conflict. and following those promise terror attacks on october 7 on israel. lincoln said that sustain solution is going to need a vision of a palestinian state. blinking is also met with ukraine's lead of letting me so landscape promising more funds. they were talking about the battlefield situation. the plans, the 2024, and the way ahead and the means to fulfill these needs a lot of me. so lensky said that he would increase cooperation and co production of

weapons to try to decrease his country's reliance on foreign aid at a time of fatigue. now there is at the base and devils isn't there about this idea of using frozen the russian assets to rebuild ukraine. can you tell us more about what's being discussed as well? ukraine says a con, wait for this war to stop, to start rebuilding its country by talking about huge areas that have been completely destroyed, tied to rumble, not just housing and infrastructure, but electricity grids as well. hospitals, schools. these all need to be rebuilt now, and it's why lot of me savanski is being here in person this time, not just via video. think to try to drum up support for the reconstruction of ukraine as well as weapons and using these frozen russian assets. we're talking about ukraine saying it needs full 100000000000 euros to rebuild the country. the

us any you said to a frozen, at least 300000000000 euros in the frozen russian est assets. and that money continues to grow low, its frozen, generating prophets of some 3000000000 euros. now, germany belgium, easily in france, a very cautious about using even those profits, let alone those frozen assets. it could set, they say a dangerous price that it could also cause financial instability and they were legal questions that need to be answered. but it could also said a very, very important president when it comes to countries thinking about launching was now i was talking to a finance see a bill proud of just though the who once had the biggest foreign investment or was behind the biggest foreign investment in ross, or until the had to leave the country. he said there was a lot more money get stake here

a lot more in frozen assets that could be used not only to rebuild ukraine, but also to supply it the weapons. it needs to end the war. and thanks so much for the update that's been submitted and reporting from demo thanks and you have a nice x ray general you installed the has been in his post for almost a decade now. and that's longer than usual because this time has been extended several times, but with nato is 75th anniversary coming up, which will be marked with us on this in washington. the consensus is the shelton bug should pos on the bass and on that occasion. so the races on to find a new nay, so chase, but who can win? the unanimous support needed his w as terry schultz with more funny, it's been one of the most popular guessing games in brussels for years. who will replace again? stilton berg, the norwegian, nato. chief has been asked to stay on his head of the western military alliance,

4 times, once, even after he'd already accepted another job and it is time for nato leaders to find a good candidate. it's really important that a choice is made early enough and that it is the link from both the european union elections and the campaign for the united states elections. just why the alliance has been unable to find a suitable replacement is not exactly clear in part because there is no official procedure for doing so. there has been an unofficial list of desired qualities, experienced as a head of state or government of a country with robust defense spending from us, southern or eastern ally and preferably finally, a woman. many names have come up and gone down. currently let be in for administer, christy on his current estonian, prime minister kaya gomez, and outgoing dutch prime minister mark route. you all want the job which is

gradually emerged as the clear favorite. a c for choice with must goes more on ukraine, dominating the alliance agenda thursday. the sense that to having somebody from the baltic states to, to be at the state. so would be somehow caught the productive short term for one. it's difficult to see what exactly done. the problem is because the relations with russia are frozen at this point. in any case, mark which is reported leave the only candidate who has been discussed by nato ambassadors. and while this all takes place behind the scenes, kind of call is, is making clear. she's notice that what used to be considered the desire qualities . and a new leader which she fulfills seem to have changed. take a look. it should definitely be from a country that has spent to 2 percent of the gdp on defense. and it would be nice if it uh would be a woman. so it's logically smart for that. a stony is defense spending will reach 3

percent of g d p. well, the netherlands won't quite hit nato's target of 2 percent. the nato dynamics are so closely watched that this exchange between a huge and call us at a european union summit. lead to suggestions, he may have been using the opportunity to build consensus for the job. on the other side of town. we asked. no, no, no, no, no, no. but it's not only european support, a new nato secretary general will need with us elections looming. there is still the question of picking someone who could adapt to a variety of possible outcomes in washington. and some of those outcomes could be very challenging, politically for europe. yeah, stilton bank are into the title of the trump whisper. how? because you were so successful at manage and then us presidents, distain for nato, and route to m a already have an advantage there. should it become necessary?

we've become friends over the last couple of years. and, but even though speculation has gone on for years inside or say it's still too early to predict the outcome, nothing is decided until everything is decided. the one thing that does seem certain is against oldenburg will finally get to leave the post as the 2nd longest serving nato secretary general. so far, this is a quick reminder for you of our top story today. katasha and francis broke at a new deal, so god bless his house, has the agreement, we'll see the delivery of humanitarian aid and medical supplies to civilians into the gauze and strip including to those is riley is being held captive by the end of that you are coming up next, the film explores breeland's. dwindling. lacy is which could have a secret about the future of life on the ground for that. if you can then forget, there's always more news on our website that c,

w dot com and all social media channels are menu cuz mckinnon, thanks so much for watching. dw, the, the goldsmith. i'm not saying in the late seventy's shlomo smiles now make go stop bog. now. the man who had to maintain him to use like to wagner was date. was it suicide? the evidence raised has done what really happened. january 27th on d w. the .
