3:02 pm
which effectively took over the authorship and you served the work on the text behind the scenes at various levels, twisting the hands of regional representatives, the text lost more and more important provisions with each new revision. colleagues, this is a tragic moment for the security council, not a moment of triumph for multilateral diplomacy, but huge on principles blackmail. it is an open defiance on the part of washington of the suffering of the palestinians, and of the aspirations of the world community to put an end to it. the security council is essentially being asked to stay out of the way while the us twists its arms in the region, not for the sake of peace as my american colleague claims, but to ensure washington's narrow self interest. let's cross live now to all the correspondence. kelly moulton, in new york. caleb, what more details can you give us about this long awaited resolution on gossip?
3:03 pm
well, the un security council has been delayed for quite some time from passing a resolution related to the ongoing bombardment of guys of by israel. because the united states has determined to make sure that no resolution condemning israel or restricting is really activities or implementing a ceasefire the past. now we had a vote scheduled for monday, but it's taking the entire week and now finally friday, the votes has taken place. 13 countries voted in favor of the resolution which calls for the allowing of humanitarian aid to get into the conflict area, the allowing of this aid by a moss and by israel, the 2 countries of stay russia abstained, and the united states of state, uh and the resolution, which was pretty miles and does not restrict is really activities i is resolution finally did indeed pass. here's what china had to say about this resolution
3:04 pm
that quote your g chance. we welcome the adoption of this draw resolution because they were quite a number of adjustments to the text and some important aspect. she ability, those adjustments and not consistent with the efforts we have made all okay. they do not meet our expectations the on you were given the urgency of the situation on the ground. the humanitarian catastrophe and goals are that is getting more diet by the day, the counselors, carnes, action office at least the glimmer of hope for increased in the expedited deliveries of humanitarian aid to gossip child. the left side of it did vote in favor of the resolution talking about basically how the last minute changes to it that were imposed by the united states in order for them to not use their retail power and block the resolution of how they are not satisfied. with it, they see the resolution itself as a step forward. now, the us and basset are to the united nation, spoke and was quite self congratulatory. in her words, basically proud that the united states had acted as israel's protector at the un
3:05 pm
inhaled the resolution, which many parties were quite disappointed by. i hailed it as a step forward. here's what we heard from the us representative. since the start of this conflict, the united states has done work tirelessly to alleviate this humanitarian crisis. to get life saving assistance and to gaza and to get hostages out of gaza to push for the protection of innocent civilians and humanitarian workers. and to work towards a lasting piece. but today viscouso provided a glimmer of hope amongst a sea of unimaginable suffering. today this council called for urgent steps to immediately allows safe and hindered and expanded humana, terry, an access and to create the conditions for sustainable cessation of
3:06 pm
hostilities. i'll note that this is the 1st time this council has used this language. language we believe is critical to scaling up aid and underscoring the tough steps ahead. as we work together to achieve a lasting piece. now the death toll and gaza is rising beyond $20000.00 civilians who have died. as israel bombardment continues out, there have been journalists, guild humanitarian aid workers, hospitals targeted and destroyed, the palestinian representative took to the floor of the security council and address the council describing the dire circumstances, no food, no electricity, and no possibility of getting out of harm's way for many civilians, this is what we heard this concept 1st met to address this great crisis when
3:07 pm
hundreds of palestinians had been killed by is the occupying power. and it's cj and the aggression on the guys us through the concert is no meeting of the over $20000.00 palestinians have been killed almost half of them children. no one should forget that what we are talking about a 2300000 palestinians who have been fighting for their life and facing death every single day for 75 days. they have been fighting for their lives for their very existence, for over 75 days and the economy immediately. this requires an immediate fuel monetary and seized by it. now, back by 153 states around the world,
3:08 pm
it took this concept 75 days to finally i thought of the succession of hostilities. there is no way to stop the war, crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide under way. but an immediate cease fire sees why it again. now, israel speaking before the council described its activities as a necessary action to fight terrors. the is rarely rep uh, made clear that they consider this necessary for is real security. they also argue that they are being unfairly criticized for their actions. here's some of what these really representative said before the un security council. most of the to use it should start by supporting israel's mission of returning hostages and the limits and, and doing this almost threat at the very least it must prevent from us is empowerment . just as this counselor is committed to increasing aid,
3:09 pm
it should also be committed to blocking the smuggling of arms and transfer weapons to the how much terrorist. and just as this council is committed to ensuring a reaches gauze and civilians, it should also be committed to ensuring the cit. aid is not the ability to come up stairs. we do not care about the civilian population. the focus of any resolution should also hold from us accountable, while taking every step to prevent them from intrinsic themselves and regaining power. now the united states seems to be determined to not only act as israel's protector in international bodies, but also to continue backing and providing financial support for israel military operations. right now the buying administration is asking for another $14000000000.00 to provide israel with supports in terms of its military operations and its attacks on gaza. so united states seems to have gotten what it wanted and seeing a resolution that it was willing to not veto and not against epa security council.
3:10 pm
and finally, after weeks and weeks, the un security council has passed a resolution uh re later to the gaza crisis. okay, let the thank you very much for that for a breakdown of the resolution adopted by the security council. thank you. so let's stay with the con sites in the middle east policy. and you know, it's hard to say that the debt, so in gaza, is now suppose to 20000 people. and there's no longer a functioning hospital in the north of the enclave. well, that's according to the world health organization. and these disgusting images show some of the conditions that people are living on to the

3:13 pm
were crushed to death under the level of buildings hit by strikes and tens of thousands of others. i believe to be at risk due to a lot of a central medical care with the geneva based. and you also accused israel of using hunger as a weapon of war under the reports by the n g o. so that's 802000, the palestinians in northern gods that have no access to health care. it also said that 23 out of 35 hospitals in the enclaves have been forced to shut down 9 facilities, a possibly functioning well for those operating in very limited services. all right, was the last function hospital in gaza on tuesday the both the world health organization on the un said to the facility has completely renounce a supplies. 10 staff members were still trying to provide 1st aid the while at least 18 injured people, including the elderly and young children to refuge at the hospital. a you and medical official spoke about the situation in the hospital in the church on the
3:14 pm
hospital grounds where we're seeing patients with severe orthopedic needs past experience currently have no operating theatre. they're operating on the 5 doctors and 5 years their patients here who have been injured even more than a month. no surgery. their patients who have been operated on, but they are now getting close somewhere to infections because the hospital doesn't have sufficient antibiotics, w h o and this intrusion submission with, you know, to new india assessing on mouse has brought some medicines or medical supplies. but it's just going to address some of the needs because they, they don't have sufficient stuff. and as you can see behind me, the patients are on the hospital cues are on the floor. they're suffering enormously here. this is a completely unacceptable situation. but also in the southern gas and the border with egypt and yes, strikes have how much of the city of rafa local residents?
3:15 pm
so it'd be nationally searching through the be able to find any loved ones who may still be trumped, is very strikes have recently intensified over the southern parts of the enclaves targeting the densely populated cities of tanya nice and rough. as we've already said about the idea of having previously ordered causative residents to evacuate from the north of the region to the saw local gen, list homes of children whose frequently reported full archie was an account that was fits bindings ready as strike on southern gauze at this week now have to having no internet connection for a number of days. he's just now census this voltage of incidence. it's occurred in the city of rough or near the adoption border. yeah, my friend, he wants to see inside this for a southerly mazda of our sites and truly on thursday. but i just walked in the middle one just had the car on my front door injury.
3:16 pm
imagine disrupting him. someone. what do you expect? well, this thing with the conflicts, the washington post as challenged obligations by the idea that thomas had an underground come on the sense that it's a hospital in old and gaza. israel had used the idea of claims to justify the tax on the medical facility. the evidence presented by the is really government falls short of showing that come off had been using the hospital as a command and control center according to a washington post analysis of open source visuals, satellite imagery, and all of the publicly released ideas, materials that raises critical questions, legal in humanitarian experts say about whether the civilian harm caused by israel's military operations against the hospital and circling besieging and ultimately reading the facility and the tunnel beneath that were proportionate to
3:17 pm
the assessed threat. the washington post conclusion was based on open source data, satellites, images, and publicly disclosed, disclose i. d. f files. there was a permanent note home us presence in hospital beings linked to the tunnels. none of the 5 hospital buildings identified by the idea of spokesperson were found to have i did write the connection to the tunnels. and the underground network was also reportedly not accessible through the lc for hospital wards despite the idea of planes. so i guess they just, i'll see if a hospital last month is better, so just stormed into emergency areas, intensive care units, on cardiology ward was severely damaged and all sorts. he said that thousands upon his students sheltering inside the facility. well, that's cuts off from supplies of both food and water, and hundreds of wounded people lost their lives due to a lot of access to crucial health care services. you in work has described the situation of sci fi as well as cost live. now, i mean a bu yeah,

3:19 pm
7th, but now we can see the change of a i'll be in a in c at cnn, bbc and many other media international, the western media out that this is because of the simple winning on the other part, if i send you an, are we need the media or uh it is that at this time, this is what i can say. although they have a week to lose, but they are winning because of the social media i, i believe they are gonna be like the heroes of the scene at the end of the day. well i, i assume that you've been following this come face closely. what have you been looking out for on both sides of the conflict with video released images released? and what advice would you give to people following this conflict as well to look

3:21 pm
the last thing, a lot of supporters on, on social media, they're using the social media platforms to expose the cause of israel to expose the lives of israel. we're talking here the 40 it could be had the said by the prime minister of israel and then the raping of women. it turns out that this was all lies and it wasn't sweat told me, but it didn't, we, we had present bite and i believe you said that even see not voltage. a faulty beheaded showed it before the whites outside to so back track on those claims. if even presidents of being full done by this o, o o or at least, you know, he's the people supporting him. how, how can an everyday person on the streets scrolling through the mobile phone on. so they've got even stunned the chance of really finding out what's going on. i went to my place here and in the us i can, i can see, and i can say that there is
3:22 pm
a big change in the public opinion, especially between the, the new generation of those. uh, jen z. we call them, jen z or they are on social media and now they know what, what is going on. i guess what, uh the uh, the, the young generation here, not only the muslims here in the us, even the american people. we can see that on social media there, i guess this war there against the policies offered, mr. president, the prison, the united states. and now we can see this clearly we can see this through a video or meetings with defending the posting and close it in. let's say it's exposing the rating media and what is really happening in the us. i and, and guess, i mean, so the situation in the us on terms of public opinion, especially between the new generation, it's,
