the the, this is the, the news light from ballot is rose all mean and says no. so hospital in con eunice, the military says it has forces inside the building and southern gaza that is searching for the remains of hostages. taken by the militant islam is proved, come on us, they told ministers to meet in brussels to assess threats to the alliance. the board ukraine in europe is why the defense strategy on top of the agenda this off to donald trump said he was not defend nato allies with not spend enough money on the military. and the race to the moon is back privately owned molanda, but this was lost into space carrying

a payload of nonsense from its destination, the luminous cell, the gab office. welcome to the program or without the some breaking news is rarely troops have entered gauze as nasa hospital in the city of con eunice to search for the remains of hostages, who were seized by homos reports indicate one patient has been killed and 6 others injured sofa a mobile phone footage appears to show the raid underway. israel's military says they have quote, credible intelligence that's from us, which is, which is nice as a tower group by several countries, has been holding hostages in the complex, at some point. the rate comes a day after the army force thousands of displays, palestinians who have been shuffling in and around the hospital to evacuate is

going more about 2 of correspondents. i mean, safe is in jerusalem and told us more about the situation in the cause. a hospital as well. the israel defense forces claim that they are conducting a precise res, using special forces on this hospital. they claim that they've given a warning to the people in the hospital to evacuate, although they have not evacuated, the people themselves is a big difference there in terms of security. a many of the patients have stayed for fear of being shot while leaving the hospital. at least one patient has died in the raids so far, according to reports come off as well as the hospital staff also say that the israel defense forces shots into areas where thousands of civilians are sheltering out of the hospitals. not being used only as a hospital, but also a shelter for many civilians who have come from other areas in gaza. so at least at least one person killed in the rate. now what's interesting here is that the idea and press statement said that they were looking to retrieve the bodies of hostages,

where they're talking about here is those hostages that have already been killed by him off. so they're not talking about retrieving living hostages, but the bodies of hostages. so that's a situation of the hospital at this moment. so civilians of course, very much in focus as you said is know, focusing on the very south of gaza. what are the goals that well, it stated goals are to sweep the area for her most fighters. this has been the goal since the october 7th terrorist attack carried out by a mos uh to basically destroy the organization itself. now they've been doing this in the north of gaza for months. now. the concentration now is on the south of gaza from us where this hospital is, has largely been evacuated by civilians. and they have been pushed up against the egyptian border in the town of rasa. where is real is threatening to conduct a ground invasion despite the warnings of its closest allies, including germany and the us, they say that their ground evasion is imminent. that they are going to give us

civilians a chance to leave that area before it begins, but that they're going forward with that plan. now, palestinians, on the other hand, claim that the aims of israel defense forces are more sinister that they're not just looking for her most spiders. but they're looking to exact revenge on the population of gaza for the hamas terrace attacks and some even claim. and this has been echoed by the far right in israel, that they are intending to push palestinians up against the border and even into the sign i desert in egypt, largely pushing them out of the area claimed by israel itself. so both sides having different opinions about what the uh, the aims of the israel defense forces are here in this fight for a southern gaza. but it's certainly the case that there is a humanitarian disaster unfolding in that area there. so i'm, you know, as safe, thank you very much on you and to ukraine. now, where the military says it is repositioning some of its troops in the front line

town of difficult. it says it's is moving them to more advantageous positions in baffled town and east and ukraine has seen months of heavy fighting. keeps that decided to re deploy some forces to more secure positions offered, became difficult to get supplies into. and people also of difficult russia has been trying to seize the fortress down, seen as cheek to holding the eastern don't boss region. and that news from ukraine will no doubt also be reaching nato defense ministers while holding talks and brussels right now on the biggest challenges facing the alliance. the war and ukraine and the conflict in gaza on top of the agenda and eligible absence from the meeting will be the us secretary of defense, lloyd austin, due to health reasons. the gathering has been overshadowed by comments from republican presidential hopeful donald trump, who recently seemed to call into question washington's commitment to say to allies, nature chief can start and back said supporting ukraine was to everyone's benefit,

the welcome that they dollars are providing more support, more air defense more, i'm a nation, a welcome to decision by due to being union and to allocate 50000000000 euros to ukraine, and expect the u. s. congress to agree uh, a package of a continued support to ukraine because supporting ukraine is not charter to supporting ukraine is an investment in our own security. and for a while ago, i spoke with w's brussels bill to reflect some of phenomena. and also about the main problems for the nato defense ministers in regard to further support for ukraine. well, i think you have, that's the main challenge here for do you need to defense ministers is to come up with a plan on how to sustain support for ukraine, and we heard from you insulting back the native secretary general, who said this morning that washington's delay in approving a new mess,

this age package for ukraine is already having an impact at visible impact on the battlefield. there are reports saying that ukraine and troops, russian, inc, or even running out of i'm a nation on the frontline so you can see how urgent the mattress and we have seen some announcements here already. the u. k. and lots here, for instance, have announced that there are establishing can you call listen to provide to clean with thousands of mod done drones. but of course, the other question is for, for the europeans to ramp up their weapons production and to install some back, told us today that over the course of the last months, allies increased and signed contracts worse, 10000000000 euros to ramp up their production. and the other question is, of course, for the european allies, also to increase their spending on defense. and we heard from the install and

back then now 18 out of so there are 2 ones. natal members are meeting the targets of spending 2 percent of their gdp on defense t w's. i think some of phenomena reporting that several of not some of the other stories making headlines. us media are reporting that washington as long as you are p and allies about the russian efforts to develop space based nuclear weapons, the public and chair of the house intelligence committee, mike turner, as aust president biden, to declassify the information related to what he called a serious national, the security threats, at least one person was killed in more than 20 wounded in the shooting during the us super bowl victory parade. thousands of kansas city chiefs football fence were out celebrating when gun 5 bro, count. police, if they can see people into custody and in investigating any possible motive. north
