a small earthquake jolts, new york city. people reports feeling the earth move under their feet. luckily, nobody's hurt the welcome to the show. israel says it has fire to senior officers and reprimanded a 3 others for mondays. the air strikes in gaza that killed 78 workers. an inquiry carried out by israel's military found that its forces mistakenly believe the humanitarian conroy. it had been taken over by him last militants and not drone operators. ms. stoke humanitarian work or holding a bag for a gun. man. the a group is calling for an independent inquiry stating that israel's military can't credibly investigate its own failure. of our correspondence, rebecca writers in jerusalem told me more about the results of the inquiry. the results came out just a few hours ago here in israel, from the military,

from that so cold, independent investigation though it is an internal investigation done by a separate bronze within the is really a military. and the basically identified that this, these strikes were carried out in serious violation of military protocol protocol. and it says they would carry, doubt jude to miss identification. that in fact, the, the military thought that there was a threat. they felt that somebody thought that they saw a gunman on this humanitarian con boy, that was going uh, this was earlier before the firing actually happened. that was going to this warehouse. and they thought that that gunman then proceeded to go with this convoy . and that's of course why they're saying that the, the convoy was then fired upon, you know, we, as we know from the reporting of the incident, the, the, the convoy was fired upon the 1st call. the 1st vehicle was fired upon and the people tried the people that were still living were trying to get out, go to the 2nd and the 3rd and i work, you know,

it was continually fired at so that is being identified as of me. so identification and in and in direct violation of military procedure. as you've mentioned, we've got to a senior military personnel has been dismissed and of some have been reprimanded, including the head of the southern come on that looks off to the military. that that is basically carrying out the operation in gaza. it also says that this has a break down in the chain of come on. but we've been reporting on this week from internal a tunnel reporting that's being done here in israel. my magazine called at 972 plus 972, that they're in fact is a, is a gross breakdown of the china of come on in the military. and it has been through out this, in fact, that a machinery has been you to identify targets. and in fact, there is very little in way of china of come on. so if that is indeed concern that could potentially go some way to explaining how something like this could happen.

as the w corresponded rebecca rivers in jerusalem and then use for a policy change just up or else as a decision by israel to open up more core doors for a. the integral is that won't be enough to stop starvation in the territory as well as move came after pressure from the us on thursday. the opening of the air is crossing into the palestinian territories north was among several steps approved by israel's cabinet to let in more humanitarian assistance. the ports in as dodd will also be reopened to process a shipments bound for garza and more deliveries will pass through crim salaam that's in the south. let's hear how you as presidential bind respondents to israel's move to the for us and it just stopped mid a tree. are you there is room. i asked of it. they're what they're drawing short statement. there are corresponding benjamin over a square were in washington, told me what he made of that comment from president by non israel a very short

on indeed, and president biden did not announce concrete measures in this broad, the cryptic onset from the us president as part of broader mixed messaging from the why tests regarding and score and stance a to israel, while the wide has well attend israel's announcement of opening this age roads. washington stressed that the plan must be rapidly implemented and that is accepted . part of the assessment of the united states of israel's immediate action that will determine a u. s. policy. that's what the white house set off to the coal between president biden and prime minister netanyahu. but at the same time, us officials told the washington post that the bike and administration approved a transfer of thousands more weapons to israel on the same day. that is really a strict think of the killed. it'd be $78.00, which is now the warning that we heard yesterday coming out of washington was quite staunch and quite unprecedented. but the humanitarian crisis and also has been reading since the war began. so in your opinion, one took the bite and administration so long there is

a question that many not only here in the us are asking themselves after october, 7th of last year. more than 168 workers were killed in gauze. the only in that year in those a few weeks, the total is larger than all 8 worker that's worldwide. and every year since 1997 according to age, work, a database. but it is this killing of the west and aid workers that appears to mocking inflection point full bite and support of israel, the calls to condition military a to as well as the us does with every other ally worldwide on the new indeed, but actions speak louder than words and the frustration here is growing that the yes is not completely using is leverage with israel showing that it was this phone call and the statement that made and a israel also the pressure to israel to open this new intrigues me at joe biden. and benjamin yeah, we've had a difficult relationship. how much strain is this war putting on us is really

relations on top of the of the relationship between both countries. strange indeed, and patients is running out here in washington also because president by knows that he's losing a lot of voters, had of the presidential elections that are happening this year in this country. more and more petitions also from the democrats, from his party is speaking out in favor of conditioning a to israel. and they also know and have been telling the winehouse that a words and not enough the actions are actually needed and talking about actions, we just need to look into geneva today. whether you're in human rights council approved this resolution calling on congress to stop selling weapons a to israel with 28 countries. voting in favor, 6 against and 13 extensions in the u. s. and germany, which account for the vast majority of israel's arms exploit both voted against. and that's exactly what many is saying that the us needs to do more needs to use of leverage to condition and put more pressure on the government to spend

a minute on yelling. israel definitely use benjamin alvarez in washington. thank you so much. the commander of ron's powerful revolutionary guard has said there will be retell union for an air strikes that destroyed or runs console with in serial on monday was killing 12 people. he blames the strikes on israel entire, on thousands, turned down to attend a funeral for 7 members of the guard, including 2 senior generals or killed. and the blast flashes between israel and around the back has blown along the is really lebanese border, have increased since the war, and also began nearly 6 months ago. the funeral took place on a could stay an annual event when people in iran and elsewhere around the world stage pro palestinian rallies. simon maven is the middle east analyst at lancaster university and you told me how serious israel should be taking this threat from iran. they will be taking it very seriously, particularly benjamin netanyahu, who for the past. ready years has been viewing around us. the great danger to is

really, society is an ex, essential strategies being making speeches about the ron being this, this real pop. it must controlling the laws of the region and. ready using a threat to as well. so for nothing yahoo, it will be taken very, very seriously. but for others that will be this acceptance, that's a ron, is having to engage in some degree of performance of auction, of having to appease a number of different constituencies. and so i don't think that this will lead to a dramatic escalation in the short term, but what it does do is it makes an already for you, briley k all taken precarious environment that much more dangerous. oh simon nathan . let's take a look now. some other stories making this around the world argentina's president call you relay, has met with us military leaders and appeared on as well a region of his country to discuss plans for a new naval base. china as previously lobbied to establish a base in the region of the southern tip of the south american continent,
