a mos. militants was often deadly consequences for civilians. these pictures from algebra, tv show the mainland to these radio strike, hit witnesses say was un school to and shelter in a best time. a town, yukon, eunice, on the ground, accounts told of fear and panic and civilian casualties of the to the by the school guides. 6 i went out to get thing and so my children, when the strike happened, a huge explosion. people are flying in all directions, never know ambulances. the took about an hour to arrive. 2 israel's minute treat, told the reuters news agency. it was looking into the incident. it says it was

targeting how mass forces in the area. those at the scene of the strike stress that the victims with civilians. lovely and without prior warning, luckett society towards a few people who were using the internet signal that they weren't side to is they didn't have weapons and they weren't involved in any resistance of the nation. the civilians and most of the children and the these pictures show the extent of the devastation in hong units of to israel's campaign in the area. part of its response to the have mass up type of the 7th type of attack on southern israel. the dual thirty's say killed around 1200 people. and so hostages taken this latest strike as calmly as the 2 sides review efforts to secure a c spot and hostage release time as well. and that is rails renewed ground of sold

and bombardment could jeopardize talks. and i'm drawing now by journalist bollix levine in tel aviv folic israel is urging all civilians to leave kansas city. what more can you tell us as well, just to clarify something, i just took the sources from the military, from the spokespersons office, specifically. and they are telling me that this is not unusual. there had been a factory wasting orders that before. of course, this one apparently cost for all civilians and because the in the go to city of to leave it to the cell. but it has to be to get also ruby. it seems to be just of an emergency message. and that's what they are saying as well. so this is just the so the civilians, the, they're in because a city where where, which trip outs companies say in case of an emergency in case of evacuation. but that does not coal, all of them right now please to leave because the city we're talking about

a huge number of the neighborhoods that has been evacuated since a couple of days ago. and apparently the audience is gonna operate in the area, especially in the east part of the gods city. but as long as doing this, and they have to be lots of talks about this in the past 24 hours. that's really what the evaluation will just start to, to come to the city. how much is it being under pressure calling this? but again, not to leave us also showing some more flexibility in terms of what is going on in the a. it'd be a negotiation for the possibility of reaching good deal. so this means that means that how much could be pressured by doing this because after all, they know that they cannot operate at least not properly in terms of uh, or in the, in an area that doesn't, that has any civilians. they are used to fight in urban areas and that's one card that is i can use against them. right? so just to clarify, what does that mean for civilians?

are they supposed to leave, or are they supposed to stay foot, which they are supposed to leave the eastern part, specifically according to the letter as the whole from the post person, but not all the simply as it regards to our order right now to lead that's what i'm getting from this post person's office, and that's what the video that they have put up. but both this is all right. and the palestinian officials say over 2 dozen people were killed in the or straight on the school yesterday that we just showed their, the israeli defense forces they, they're reviewing reports that civilians were harmed at this point. what exactly do we know about what really happened in the middle to say that they told me that the one that most of them that day has taken part in the the 7th of october at sac . he operated in the area. well the, i don't have any information about that specific person. uh but um, from talking to uh, guys in the end before,

in terms of the attacks that happened before, specifically in bra fast where civilians were blended. they're telling me that the, it's, yeah, it is like, that's what happens actually. uh, some of the things are present there, but apparently it's rather it's a much more important for the military to kill those. um both ends and even if that means that this some civilians will be wounded and just like it was seen yesterday . of course this is very sensitive right now because of the, the uh, negotiation or the uh, investigation that are going on with the icpc. also in the i c j. so uh, apparently uh there has been this some uh um, uh very has been a reason for that to attack these. that was a, a b i need to say, but the investigation is going on right now. also have that specific get set up, but again, it doesn't look good especially, and this time was as well. it was funny for history and it's a for, it's uh,

it would be addition in the word that's trial, hispanics living in toby's, thank you. thank it's to the european football championship in germany now where the clock is ticking down to to 9 semi final between the netherlands and england. the city of dogwood has turned into a sea of orange. as dutch fans get ready to tear on their t thousands have converged on the city center. many england fans of also turned out to enjoy the warm temperatures ahead of the game. winter will face spain in sundays . final all the moving from the w sports isn't going to and we asked him whether fans expected english to reach the semi final no, i don't think that was much to suggest the england. we're going to make it even this fall, let alone add to the final ad. certainly the attack i mentioned already, but the lights of hurricane the likes of to billing until food and the kind of sucka these guys really should be signing in the goals and it just hasn't happened

. and that has caused a lot of criticism for the coach. gara southgate, he's been in the job 8 years now, and perhaps there's some suggestions that england needs some fresh ideas. they need some fresh inputs is he of course will be hoping that his plans can get him to another year. i so i know that it all finally clicks out this tournament and then he gets another european championship final as his one. so if indeed it does set out to be his last tournament with england, but certainly a good all going to have to take it up a notch to night if they're going to get past the top side that has improved sofa. during the knockout stage, it says ali moody and dogma and anyone with the fear of heights, look away. now, a hollywood stump man has beaten the record for the longest black line walk. young rose made the 3600 meter walk. that is over 3 kilometers across the street of messina, between sicily and mainland italy, and just under 3 hours,
