you press tv headlines: israely forces kill and injure nearly 90 civilians waiting for aid in northern gaza as regime's genocide enters its 160th day. the palestinian islamic jihad dismisses a u.s. plan to build aid port off gaza's coast as misleading measure aimed at buying time for israel and leader of hesbullah says israel is paying a high price in its war with resistance in gaza and lebanon while trying to hide its losses.

hello everyone, it's 4 am in the besieg gaza strip and you're watching press tv world news. israel's genocidal campaign in gaza is now in its 160th day with the regime continuing to pound the blockated territory with more air strikes and artillery fire. of israel's latest strike hit an unraid distribution center in the southern city of rafa leaving five. palestinians dead and israeli forces also open far a group of of palestinians waiting for aid in northern gaza, killing at least six and injuring over 80 others. a regime airway targeted a home in the jabalya refugee camp, killing at least one civilian and leaving several injured, and in rafa, two civilians were killed and some others injured after israely forces bombed their vehicle. the gaza health ministry says nearly 31,300 palestinians, most of them women and children. have so far been killed

in the israeli genocide since early october and over 73,000 others have been injured. the us decision to build a temporary port of gaza's mediterranean coast is a misleading measure aimed to buying time for the israeli regime. this, according to deputy secretary general of palestinian islamic jihad muhammad al hindi. he's a construction of the port could lead to displacement of even more. genocide since day one by providing the been a partner in israel's campaign of regime with weapons without congressional permission. hindi stress apparent disagreements between the us and israel are not genuine and are only related to their of tactics. he said israel seeks to separate the north of gaza from its south with. can cover

and reduce its area by creating a so-called buffer zone, and earlier we asked co-founder of code pink madeya benjamin about her take on the us plan to build a so-called humanitarian aid port in gaza, here's what she had to say, my thoughts that this is just a share for the united states to act as if it cares about the civilians in gaza when it has been for six months supporting the israeli genocide and refusing to put the pressure that's needed on israel to open not only the rafa crossing but also the other border crossings in that between israel and gaza, so it is ridiculous for the us to send in all of these mil'. people to build a quote temporary

port. mean, we know gaza has needed a port for a long time, not a temporary port, a real port under the control of the people of gaza, just like it needs an airport, which it had until the israelis bombed it. so this is all a sherade that the people in gaza see right through and understand that this is not, because the united states is their friend. leader of lebanon's hezbulah movement says israel's military and economic losses and its ongoing conflict with resistance groups in gaza and lebanon are enormous, says the regime is trying to cover up for its losses, especially number of soldiers is lost, and we discussed these issues with our guests earlier in our news review program. and

welcome everyone to press tv's news review program where we get in-depth in one of the days top stories. leader of lebanon's hez bull resistance movement says israel's incurring significant. losses in terms of military personnel in gaza and lebanon, its army is worn out and tired on all fronts. um army and let us just see that they are exhausted gaza, there's destruction of homes destructions of buildings, this is just one part.

experiencing severe shortage of soldiers, he said regime resorted to recruiting thousands of people even from the ultra-orthodox jewish community. astrala said, in the northern front, regime is imposing strict censorship on information about its losses in terms of soldiers, military vehicles and other assets. the hisbullah leader noted the senior israely experts and former ministers have admitted to strategic and economic losses that the regimes incurred. also commented on the us support for the regime urging washington to halt the israeli aggression instead of helping it. regarding the conflict in gaza and australia said regime has lost the war as it's failed to achieve any of its declared objectives including eradication of hamas.

and joining us for the program is matty am. press tv correspondent joining us from bayrut and tony gozzing, historian and investigative journalist joining us from bristol. hello. like to welcome you both to the program, at em, we'll start with you to get the latest uh, what did you walk away with as far as um uh sayid the speech there? well you can, okay uh hold on madiam, it seems like we have a voice issue, um, maybe you might want to disconnect and reconnect uh try to figure it out with our uh technical guys, but i'm going to go over to... tony tony, let's see if your voice is working, um, your thoughts on on syd hasan saying that the um israelis are are really in a tough spot when it comes to moral and the fact they're lying about everything on all fronts with respect to this conflict, so the their public relations machine is

lying to the world, famously in christmas over christmas here in britain uh the jewish comedian alexis sale said they lie, they lie, they lie, and he carried on for a whole minute talking about the... government uh and the thing is that they're also lying to themselves uh so they're trying to convince themselves of the same lies they're telling abroad now this is what this is really is indicating that you know we're dealing here with a really unhinged uh government and ben gavir i noticed one of the ministers now um he's actually been saluting this israeli soldier um who has killed a palestinian child in cold blood um now this obviously is the sort of thing which is totally inexcusable uh war crimes and genocide. uh, the collective punishment of the palestinians, which is an international war crime. so it doesn't really surprise me that that the israeli government is actually buying its own rubbish and not

and lies, but the fact is uh that the the military is very, very stretched uh and of course the morale uh whilst they keep. posting videos of atrocities, this is supposed to be um, what actually keeps the soldiers going. let me tell you, in any war that is not going to be positive in terms of morale, when atrocities are being committed, they might try and convince themselves by posting these videos and trying to scare and horrify the world by posting them, but actually what this does is it destroys morale within a within an army, and this is what we're now seeing many months into this attack, is an army? which has lost its way uh, it's also very important to point out the extent to which israeli citizen citizenry uh in tel aviv in jerusalem in west jerusalem anyway has been severely criticizing its government by coming out on the streets and protesting and it was interesting to see the use of uh water cannon by this uh absolutely

um belegured israeli government which has lost its way against its own people so it's fighting a war not only externally. on fronts like in lebanon and in gaza etc. it's also having to fight its own people, that such a government is doomed to fail, and the israeli people are quite rightly now demanding fresh election. to get rid of the far right genocidalists now running the country. thank you, tony and madiam, let's see if we have you squared away. welcome back to the program, your thoughts about said hasan nastro's comments and what you walked away with from what he said. i'm sorry for the technical issue, but well i think the most important thing is that when we look at how he was very much decisive when it came to giving a judgement, this war has been lost. israel and he clearly said and told netan that even even if you enter rafa you have

already lost the war since your main objective was to basically end the resistance or to destroy the resistance, you have not been able to destroy the resistance, hamas is there, and hamas seems to be stronger than ever before, since it is the one that is negotiating, it is the main side that the qataris and the the the egyptians turn to when they want to mediate any talks - concerning ac's fire, concerning a prisoners swag, concerning any sort of agreement that would come out of the war. all right, well thank you both, stay safe, thank you, madyam and uh tony, press tv's madiam uh solid there reporting out of bayroot, lebanon and tony gossling joining us out of brisel, the uk, thank you both, stay safe, you bet and viewers, that brings us to the end of this segment of your press tv's news review program, thank you for joining us and goodbye for now, and welcome back everyone, you're

escalations across various. fronts during the month of ramadan from gaza to the invasion of rafah, extending to the front with lebanon. on the ground, the israeli occupation army has expanded its operations deep into the gaza strip, intensifying battles in the cities of hamad and khan unis as a prelude to entry into rafah as the resistance re-emerges again in northern gaza. cese fire talks falter this week on the meast stream. i believe that working together we can make history.
