the, i'm been expanded to welcome israel ministry say is it has taken full control of the strip of land that serves as a buffer zone between gaza and egypt. these rarely benefit claims the philadelphia caught it all, provides a weapon, smuggling root into gaza for how boss many times. but it's also a key part of a delicate piece arrangement between israel and egypt. these right has also deepened its incursion into rough uh, in southern guns that is really helicopters firing towards rafa near the southern most city and gaza. where israel's military says it is seized control of a key stretch of land. the 14 kilometer philadelphia cord or that as long served as a buffer zone between gaza and egypt. every muscle in him, in recent days,

a call they can talk about the fia is rolling system. it needs to carry out the rough operation to rescue the hostages. how mos took in the old tober 7 terre attacks, despite condemnation from allies and 8 groups, a like a civilian casualties mount it is rarely bombardment and rough on wednesday hit a building in this so um neighborhood. meanwhile, the home us run health ministry announced a death tool and the cause of war had risen above 36000. the problem is that that means the federal oppression has been conducted in such a way that the number of civilian casualties and the destruction of c, meeting e for destruction and browsing and perseverance. and there's no end in sight. israel's national security adviser says the offensive and gaza is expected to go on

for at least 7 more months. let's get more off. indeed, of the correspondence, rebecca auditors in jerusalem. rebecca, why does each barrel say operations and gaza will continue, at least in the end of the as well barish israel has maintained since the get go since the very beginning of this war that it's main military aim is to eliminate how about how about us now? as we're seeing is ro hasn't managed to do that. so assigned to continuing to carry on that military and in ross or as you just heard in that report there. and we're also say fighting was human areas that had been officially created and confirmed. you know that they had pulled down tobin central and northern, gaza and then come off of fighting a guerrilla warfare. many experts are in fact warning of what they say might be for revel. you know, as a sort of like insurgency style welfare happening in gauze that israel won't be able to come back and say to the israeli population, we did it,

we eliminated her mouse. and therefore, we're inevitably going to say, this will drag on. that's certainly what experts a saying, and of course we have the issue of hostages there is you heard in that report and we've been talking about now for months is rel, needing to also be able to come back and bring the hostages back to the many people and it's relevant calling for that. now of course, you've also got the political angle, benjamin netanyahu really fighting for his political survival. and knowing that when such a time comes that of the war ends, he will have to face questions regarding how something like october 7 was able to happen under his watch. he's made saying it's not fair, it's not right to have to answer those questions as was ongoing and that would come at the end of the war. so there's little incentive on his part as well to, to try to bring this to a close. but definitely the main aim is going to be because of this, this, you know, desire of this state of climate. they're going to eliminate tomas and bring back the hostages,

something that they haven't been able to achieve to the state. and rebecca, how much consensus is dad amongst the? is riley's about this ongoing offensive as well? since the very beginning, again, you know, israel has the most is right of the majority of his riley's has been in support of this. they see this is inevitable. they see this as a must have they want to see a most eliminated and that's the rest. they don't want to see another attack happen like what happened on october 7th, all understandable there. um, you know, there are of course voices within israel, a small amount of voices who, who don't want to see this will continue that a calling for a safe spot and a small but growing number of people who are calling for anything to be done in order for the hostages to be able to bring back, so they cooling for, you know, any deal to be made with him also that they loved ones can come behind that things be headed, of course, by the families of the hostages. but that is a growing voice here, but by and large overall we're seeing, you know,

the support maintain for this, for this conflict until it's route it manages to meet that amazon emanating him off . but the media landscape here it should be said is very different. the discussion in the mainstream media here isn't what we're seeing on international news and reading and international papers. it's much more focused on the hudson situation and the threat of hamas and, and people suddenly out hoping that that israel will be successful in making those names. and in the midst of all of the sort of back of the un is wanting of family and then is also saying that the amount of demand in aid entering cause has dropped by 2 sides. scenes is around began this assault on rough uh this month. what is the israeli government saying about that? well, the israeli government paints a very different picture. they say that a lot more is getting in, but the numbers, the way that it's calculated, varies the way that the un calculates. it calculates it is different to how these riley is doing, is really to include the numbers coming through places like ashed on port,

which is only as rarely sign that that's not including trucks have been actually entered into israel. so we're seeing a huge drop in the amount of a, the, you insane of a warning for a very long time. but simon is intimate eminence. and now we're seeing, you know, 50 trucks a day or 58 truck that i should say on average, compared with nearly a 180 before. this may 7 incursion, that is not file file few within the 500 to 600 trucks a day needed to stave off the, the humanitarian catastrophe that's unfolding there. we now live with the, for the moment. the thanks so much for joining us. rebecca auditors in jerusalem a quick look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. the jewelry in donald trump's hush money trial has completed its 1st day of deliberations without reaching a decision. the former us president is accused of concealing payments, made to an adult film actress shortly before the 2016 presidents and elections, if found guilty,
