the feel. okay, welcome to the program is ro is rio from the address border crossing into northern garza. it had previously been close since the staff of the wall with her mouse following the october 7, 10 tax as the only crossing on the territories north in edge 8 agencies have been calling for the reopening for months when i was applying desperately needed food on medicine to hundreds of thousands of civilians at risk of the reopening also follows us the amounts of israel do moment to address causes. humanitarian crisis and his writing spokesman said it was hoped the air has crossing would remain open . this is the 1st day reopened. as crossing for a robust and continuous the routes, for instance,
7:02 pm
a few minutes here and age into gaza. as you can see behind me, those of the cursed trucks that came yesterday from joe dunn fan, we're gonna run this crossing hopefully every day with china. low is communications advisor for the norwegian, refugee and council in jerusalem. welcome back to dw, i much different school reopening this crossing, make as well. that remains to be seen as of now, i believe only 30 trucks have reportedly crossed into northern garza, that is nowhere near enough to meet the basic needs of the population that is on the brink of famine and has been starving for the last several months on top of that, we're increasingly concerned that well area is, is opening and there discussions of opening this maritime corridor that the 2 crossings in the south. rafa and karen shall loan crossing could be closed in the
7:03 pm
event of. c a. c rough uh, ground offensive, and so were concerned about, well, one of pressing may be opening, there's potential that others could be closed. and nonetheless, with the amount of 8 that's been trickling in over the last several months. it's nowhere near enough to address the humanitarian needs of gaza and the n. well, more 8 may be blowing in. we need trucks, we need fuel to be able to distribute that date. we need access safe access to communities throughout all of garza in order to deliberate the aid. and so those are things that we still need to continue pushing on. of course, we've been demanding for increased crossings to be over winning over the last several months. and we are glad to see that additional one has opened. they're still concerns, but not enough able be getting in to, to find off them. and in northern garza, i mean, you mentioned those, the 1st 2 trucks are all you aware whether so let's see what allowed through all
7:04 pm
they were only so i see waiting to get through that. i'm not sure of, i read the reports that there, then 30 trucks were going through i, since this is a new, new opening, new crossing of course, ad organizing, a humanitarian responsive like steering the massive ship. it requires pipelines to be in the works. it requires a just a to be able to, to plan, to have convoys going each and every day. there needs to be a tremendous amount of planning. and quite frankly, i can't tell you how, how consistent we can expect the delivery of trucks through the air as processing will be at this point. i also was one that a number of ada organizations actually hold say that operations in gaza after which maybe troops killed a 78 was from the will central kitchen in the a month ago. and what is the situation now? you know, the situation remains unsafe, not just for humanitarian workers,
7:05 pm
but of course for that over to 1000000 civilians trapped inside of gaza. d confliction or the notification system to, to alert the is really a military of humanitarian movements and it is not working. and we saw that last month with the 7 workers from world central kitchen who were killed. we've seen it over the last 7 months, was over 200 humanitarians being killed throughout the course of this war. it is something we continue to press on the need to protect humanitarians and civilians within garza. okay, you mentioned your fears about the rafa crossing, being closed. israel struck multiple gets in reference today. what are you hearing about the situation then? or on most of our staff is based in rough uh and what we've been hearing from our staff is simply that people in rafa are terrified. they are fearful, they do not have a plan of individuals. i mean, do not have
7:06 pm
a plan that should there be ground defensive in rasa. there is no safe place in the guys. i'm much of the rest of guys that has been destroyed. there are unexploded ordnance is lying throughout the rubble in garza and making a dangerous and unsafe for civilians to return to their homes. are what's left of them and should a rock offensive go on. as israel has indicated it, plans to do it would simply be catastrophic. we would, we expect to see tens of thousands of casualties until the injured and, and, uh, but continue a spread of disease, an illness and starvation that we've been witnessing throughout the strip and particularly in northern gaza over the last few months. thank you so much for joining us, taking a shot and i'm showing a low communications advisor and the norwegian refugee council. with us secretary of state down to the blinking has been holding to us for if it's ready. 5 minutes have benjamin netanyahu in jerusalem. the blanket accused thomas
7:07 pm
of standing in the way of a cease fire. he's been urging the medicine group to accept a truce, and exchange for the release of hostages is to blink, and also have pressed mister netanyahu to increase a deliverance to gaza and repeated us concerns over the potential grounding, facing, and the southern city of rafa. speaking of israel's asked on the apple, he said there was no time to wait for how much to agree to the 65 deal. israel is made very important. the compromises and the proposal that, that it's on the table demonstrating its desire and willingness to get disagreement and get it done. now this we've been saying it's on us. how much has to decide whether it will take this deal and actually advance the situation for the people that it purports to care about in gaza? there is no time for delay. there's no time for further
7:08 pm
haggling of the deal is there. they should take it as capable from that correspondent, tiny cream, injurious and welcome tanya. i'm as far as you can tell where do things stand now and these things. finally, conversations a while that's also being discussed here. actually it's a, it's a way of waiting periods, right? now was this really guffman, but also of course the relatives and companies of those hostages in gaza. but also people in goals are waiting. now what it will, how most a say they're still waiting here for an official response. but i am asked to this a proposal that was submitted submitted to them by the egyptian and cut to read a many a test. and you know, this is also of course what you heard from the secretary of state and tony blink. and he was also, you know, just to push for more humanitarian aid,
7:09 pm
outgoing integral also, but also for a immediate cease tire. that includes uh, the release of hostages. and what do you understand from egyptian sources is that humans have asked for a move. however, if occasions also for guarantees as it's reported in the concerning the return, many of people that were displaced the beginning of the war now, 7 months ago to the sol, so they can return to their homes in the north of what's left of the homes and also, when it comes to the withdrawal of is really forces from gaza, that has to be one of the major sticking points. and these and negotiation and of course also talks about a permanent a sci fi. so there's a lot of speculation on how such a deal would look like, but they're also not the encouraging signals coming from israel, from a prime minister benyamin that's in y'all's cabinet. that is some
7:10 pm
a position among his far right. members to deal, they want to see the war continue and also from a prime minister benjamin netanyahu. himself, who had said that no matter what, there will be a military ground invasion rough of whether that is a deal or whether there is no deals that have been a really criticized a by some hint. as well as saying this doesn't really help to come to data. so this is a very core so times and in recent days it was some courses often isn't, but the longer this goes. now this of course concerned that it might not work out, but especially for the families and relatives of the hostages, but also for people in gaza. we're waiting for a ceasefire. ok, thanks tonya tonya kramer in jerusalem. that's new york city and the united states where police have cleared the building of columbia university that had been taken over by pro palestinian demonstrates us officers detained around 300
7:11 pm
people, met eric adams defended the actions, saying the protests were being led by what he described as outside advertises, individuals on the campus should not have been there. there were people who are professionals and we saw evidence of training. we saw a shift in tactics that were being used. and when you start using intelligence, the intel was able to supply, we knew was time to communicate directly with the school and say you have more than a peaceful protest on your head. okay, well look for the stay at the police actually rated the campus at the request of the university president. as the students defied an ultimatum to back down will be expelled. this is the moment for his officers inside go preach to columbia university's hamilton hole.
7:12 pm
because it says it had no choice but to authorize the read to restore safety and order pro palestinian students and thinking over the building, but was good bye to get it themselves inside and hung the banner renaming the building heads holding up for a 6 year old by letting them go, gillian, gaza, dozens of those board as does i'd be interested yet they remain defiant. the board amount of these do the groups, the columbia withdrawal investment funds from companies supporting israel as government. and i'm this people, students and faculty disciplined over the protest. i mature students. so i feel like it's especially important for me to express my concern about palestinian lives
7:13 pm
and suffering. because i kind of critically stand against the idea that jewish people can not be pro palestine. i. i think that design isn't like insights on anti zionism and anti semitism are not the same thing. and human life deserves to be protected. the burden says old will be expiring, well vandalism, and broken access to the building. these pictures are used by the universities, both person to damage to the occupied building. the, the fullest action of columbia comes exactly 56 years of your officers. stepped into the hamilton hollow to arrest board test as occupying the building in 1968 by then
7:14 pm
they had taken over the whole and other campus buildings to protest racism. and the vietnam or the columbia university has requested a police presence unto me. 70, that's 2 days after the university's graduation sermon to the student groups vowed to continue the process despite the track down the correspond that he made out about his group a is in new york city near columbia university, a welcome, ben. what's the latest asked of those up 3 police raids of last night? indeed, the students purchasing outside of university vowed to continue. there is a group, a chancing, also same columbia university, all 6 of those who took this decision saying hands of our students criticising it seems it unfolded sierra yesterday evening when and what the entity is occupied. whole molding $280.00, a risk not only here in columbia university where different combined it's to the
7:15 pm
rest of the world so made at a city college. and now the big question of those will be, what will happen with those students? will they be suspended and how it is will unfold? but for now, the approach is outside to that. we've spoken to said they will continue a protesting it. what they called was an over reaction by a police and also by the president of columbia university of is sending in n y b twice a day. only a few days and couple of weeks ago who was new york man, eric adams talking about when he blamed external actors and professionals for the escalation on the columbia. kansas that's a very good question. unfortunately, it's difficult to answer that on one side because media access has been severely restricted, we could not end to to see one does arrests were made. and also because we don't have a breakdown from n y p d from your police department telling us of the service so many were affiliated with the university. how many were not affiliated with the university. even if
7:16 pm
a student, a journalist who have been covering this and who have had access to that many of us don't have it. that's remember that to say that campus was a basically, on the often allowing only those who are living inside in essential stuff to actually enter a campus grounds. but there was something else that was quite remarkable in the press conference that they gave to day. one of the offices of the police departments showed a lock saying this is what professional spring 2 campuses. but after a quick research, it was found that it was actually a bike log that was advertised, also a via columbia as public safety department. so we're still waiting on the details there to give us exactly the information of what the out centers want a where there were allegedly also inside of that whole. but of course, we need to make the difference between those purchasing inside and protesting outside. and that's something that we've also seen over the past couple of days. and we've been covering the situation here at columbia university of columbia calls, not the only us campus facing the so itself student protests. so we likely to say
7:17 pm
a more rates on campuses across the country. definitely. and also here in new yoga other universities will, will see the buses of n y, p d also being being taken there. we can expect that more of this process will happen . we also those seeds also i'm folding on you c, l, a in los angeles where you saw a this group attacking those where they're in the encampment. so we can be sure that not only here in new york, but also in many of the cities, the discussions are ongoing and how is it pray? the office of the president of the university of those administration of the university will react to this quote is what we can expect at least here a while we're seeing the columbia university, the students that are protesting outside will continue to vote and press a university telling them to divest from companies if they say, profit from israel's war and gust. okay, thank you. have a ben benjamin alvarez through the in new york city. we'll take a quick look now, it's of all stories making headlines around the world will start in friends with
