especially those seeking medical treatment. the crossing was severely damaged in the attacks previously used for foot traffic. israel has widened it to allow the passage of a trucks via interest. the trucks will have sure to ginnie's to the areas where aid is needed. most. these should be the amount of food and medicine reaching desperate civilians in the north, depending on the efficiency of israel screening procedures and is riley spokesman said it was hope the arrows crossing would remain open. this is the 1st day reopen was crossing for a robust and continuous route, for instance, a few minutes here in a into java. as you can see behind me, those of the cursed trucks that came yesterday from joe with them. and we're gonna run this the across the hopefully every day. so the sounds in the center of

with this work because their situation is very difficult above the level of them aside, the kid does. the charity says it has hundreds of trucks, caring enough food for 8000000 meals, ready to enter this pip through the rough crossing in the south. to add to the age now beginning to flow into northern garza, through the air s crossing dw asked to show you in a low from the norwegian refugee counseling perusal him how much difference reopening this crossing will make as well. that remains to be seen as of now, i believe only 30 trucks have reportedly crossed into northern 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 up to 2

crossings in the south. rafa and karen shall loan processing could be closed in the event of. c 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 none the less with the, the amount of a 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 day, and we need access safe access to communities throughout all of garza. in order to deliver 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. he will be getting in to, to fight off them. and in northern garza as that,

which i know from the norwegian refugee council, protests are spreading further at universities across united states, leading to more confrontations with authorities to get out. it seems, follow a night of unrest and violence on campuses in new york and los angeles leading to hundreds of arrests. the majority of demonstrators, our students making a stand against israel's actions in gaza, or calling for their universities and colleges to financially divest from israel from coast to coast more and more us university campuses of it, coming back to the grounds with all sorts. he's quoting us, stand off with pro palestinian protest as many of them students like here at the university of wisconsin named madison were now familiar scene plays out as police officers move in to cleveland. make shift kept leading to classes in new york city

police department. you have been warned that as for 2 years lies across the u. s. also. i t the cracking down and protested with the moving gaza moving in to clear bulky pied campus buildings in new york police arrested around 300 protesters during rates on 2 campuses on tuesday nights. but it's the little to the, to those comes out at the cities full with them. university who's done domino is offices move in on the other side of the country at the university of california in los angeles, demonstrates as we build that barricades, but now onto a heavy police presence. class stays with cancel a table wednesday following on us spunk by clashes between israel, supporters and those come touts on sites the

a i'm, it's still a simmering tension. the whitehouse as president biden is monitoring the unfolding chaos on college campuses very closely. the americans have the right to peacefully protest. they have the right to peacefully process as long as it's within the law, and that it's peaceful for so for lutes, forcibly taking over the building is not peaceful. it's just not students have the right to feel safe. they have the right to learn that that message is likely to fall on deaf is as more and more campuses become gripped by process with universities. and the whole story is he's struggling to strike a balance between allowing demonstrations to continue while maintaining low and order dw corresponded benjamin alvarez gruber is at columbia university, new york. you described the situation there. the situation at columbia university

is now called, but still a, the access to the columbia campus that you can see here behind us, is it quite restricted, only essential stuff. and the students living inside currently have access and it's very hard also for the media coverage because media has not been allowed to enter to see how they hold it was occupied by the students and was then overtaken again and by police is looking right now. we're also waiting for answers from the office of the president of columbia university, about the visitation is a really dynamic that could indeed be changes because as also what we see in another university in a new york right now with that being arrest carried out. but for now, the situation here in columbia is quite peaceful. right? here's a quick look at some other stories making headlines around the world. the manhattan district attorney's office is former hollywood producer harvey weinstein will be re trying to new york. after his 2020 rick conviction was overturned. last week,

one signed a period before a judge in new york city. he had been serving a 23 year sentence, or the 80 wouldn't have accused him of sexual misconduct. of the british government says it has collected the 1st group of asylum seekers for deportation under the so called her one to act on the office posted a video of a rate as an undisclosed location. human rights groups have criticized in one which allows the deportation of on authorized migrants. tens of thousands of people have rallied across france as part of global protest, and mark made a police use tear gas to disperse demonstrators in paris. rallies were organized by labor unions with demands including higher wages and peace in the middle east. lawmakers and george, i have approved a 2nd reading of a controversial for an agents law. it requires media and civil rights groups that receive more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad to register as being under foreign influence. professors are currently facing off against police outside

parliament, the capital w. c. they said they would restrict basic freedoms, and it's similar to law being used to sounds, government, critics and russia. large protests against legislation come a regular occurrence in georgia. earlier, i talked to rachel denver from the human from human rights watch. she explained why so many georgians are taking to the streets and the police are dispersing them. why away? the doors are taken to the streets and mast numbers unprecedented numbers. these are numbers that we have never seen before. the streets of georgia because this law aims to take georgia back several decades in terms of freedom of expression and feeling. i'm feeling of association that wants to, to, the government isn't, has made clear that the intent is to turn away from uh, from, you know, growing integration with the european union. it seems to turn away from the west.

generally. it is using, doing this under the pretext of the law. that means that it's about the law claims that it's about the transparency of, of, of, of, of, of funding for, for, for and g o is media in the light. it's not about transparency. where and using media in georgia to get their funding is very clear. anyone can find that out. this law is about mirroring stigmatizing and demonizing organizations that are independent and that might be critical of the government. if everybody knows that the government has pretty much made clear that is aware of this and the government has made clear that attempts to use this law to silence and punish its critics. so then you would agree with the assessment as the protesters have said, that this bill would have a similar effect to a russian law, which is often used to silence critics of the government. do you agree with that assessment? i think that the, there, there are some differences between the georgia farm agent law and the russian farm

agent law. well, the drawers in the box is not called for an agent. they call it for an influence, but it's the same idea. and the product was the same. absolutely the same purpose. so yeah, i think i think that the government, the government just made very clear that this law is only the 1st and then and then what will be a number of steps to silence. it's critics. um, the, the behind the scenes, political leader, even a ceiling has made that very clear in his speech, the prime minister made that awesome. you get that very clear in the speech they intended to use this lot, silence what they call bad projects. and uh and you know and use that they don't like now we've already seen this building withdrawn once. do you think there's any chance that the protestors can get their way and actually stop it being heard by parliament again? well, the government seems very determined to push this last through. we can hope that it

will, that it will get the message that the smile will, will almost certainly be rail to gorgeous european integration. george's european integration is something that the vast majority of drawers in was 90 percent in, in the public polling so that georgia is what georgia to continue towards european integration towards becoming a stick to the remaining account of the country for use that as well. with no, unfortunately, with the rail that so at your one can hope that the government will come to with senses, but it seems quite determined. so i think that we are in for some rocky days ahead . yeah. as well, if there's pictures we're seeing just now or, and you can judge by, we definitely are. that was rachel denver from human rights watch. thank you very much for your assessment. thank you. and here's a brief reminder of the top story we're following for you at this hour is realize reopen feet was border crossings north and concepts which has been closed since a mazda is october. the 7th,
