>> consider this: the news of the day plus so much more. >> we begin with the growing controversy. >> answers to the questions no one else will ask. >> real perspective, consider this on al jazeera america

this shows the war of words and war of video if you will that's going on with this horrible tragedy. >> and lisa we know there are limitations in terms of getting to this crash site. i am concerned how involved the international community will be actually in this investigation. >> assuming the investigation can proceed in a manner in which it should, it looks like the international community will have a great deal of international involvement. ukraine has welcomed international help. they are setting up a commission from the u.s., malaysia, the dutch, the french are now offering help. ikaia is also getting involved. assuming the arrangements can be made to get investigators in there, this will be, it looks like, a broad international effort to try to uncover exactly

how this plane came down and who was behind it. >> lisa stark for us in washington, d.c. thank you, lisa. malaysia's government is taking criticism for allowing the airliner to flyover eastern ukraine. but officials say that they were not the only ones. steve has more. >> reporter: the latest government -- malaysia's government has come under a great deal of fire as to why it allowed its national carry to flyover the ukraine air space. malaysia's transport minister fired back saying that 15 out of 16 airlines in asia fly this route regularly and at international civil authority aviation experts allowed this route to be used. but at the same time, we are hearing that as early as april, the u.s. government told its carriers, including american airlines not to flyover certain areas of the ukraine because of a possible threat that civil cil airplanes could be shoot down. the transport minister didn't

have much to say about that, insist that go it trusted the international civil aviation authorities. malaysian airlines has come under also a great deal of fire over the last several months specifically because this is the country's secondary line disaster in four months. in march of this year, mh370 a flight bound from k.l. to beijing mysteriously disappeared to. this day search and rescue teams continue to search for this missing plane as well as it's 239 passengers. the government has come under a great deal of criticism for perceived i mishandling of that investigation. now a great deal of scrutiny will be on them this time around to see how they handled this international incidents involving their national carrier. many are turning for their faith for strength at a mosque in malaysia. many worshipers say they knew crew members lost on this flight. and many offered prayers and expressed the hope that those responsible for the downed flight would be brought to justice. this is the second fatal crash of a malaysia airlines plane

this year, the company's stock dropped 18% today. the airline is expected to take a major slump in ticket sales, the march disappearance of malaysia flight 370 caused the airline's biggest quarter profit loss in two years. and our coverage of the malaysia airlines disdisaster continues through the area, we'll have more reaction and a look at the weapons that may have been used to bring down the aircraft. turn to go the israel-gaza conflict noun. ban ki-moon on his way to the area as they prepare for another night of israeli strikes. israel launched a ground offensive yesterday and western nations are calling for a ceasefire. tensions are hide in occupied east jerusalem where palestinians crashed with israeli forces. conditions are dire in gas a900000 people have lost access to water and at least 40,000 have fled to u.n. sell teres, hospitals are struggling to keep up. >> reporter: yesterday was so far the worst day and night of

this attack. according to my own experience and according to the palestinian doctordoctors and nurses, we had approximately 100 admissions urgent admissions during the 24 hours yesterday. and most of them came during the night. horrible injuries from the artillery bombardment of the residential areas. lots of children, half of the casualties coming to the hospital are women and children. >> nick schifrin joins us live now from gaza. nick, what have you been seeing from the grounds invasion so far? >> reporter: yeah, tony it seems like the ground invasion is pretty limited, about you what we are seeing chimes with what you just heard there. is a lot of tank activity. we talked a lot about that corner over my left shoulder that's northeast gaza. that's where a lot of the rockets have been flying from

and the israelis have been focused on that particular point with air strikes as well as troops last night. it seems like in the last fews hours there has been a lot of tank firing from israel in to gaza and these tanks can fire quite a distance, well over a mile. so early this morning what we saw was one tank shell hitting a house, killing three siblings, we are getting more reports of fighting up there, of those tanks targeting what the israeli military says are rocket launchers or the homes of people who launch the rockets. it seems to be some families are reporting some of the blow back if you will. some of the fragments from those attacks are going in nba to civilian homes. >> i will talk to john in just a moment he's in jerusalem. but i am interested in the perspective from request yo whe. how is the fighting affecting people there in gaza? >> reporter: yeah, i think it's traumatic. and that is a word that

psychologists would use that you and i can use evening though they are not psychologists. you talk to children here, children frankly in israel as well who have to run in the bomb shelters, but especially here who have to hear the constant sound of f-16s and those booms and thuds and see images of other dead children which are on television here all the time. the trauma from war is something that these kids will never forget. and i spoke with one, for example, today who was feeling hardened by his own father's activism when his father talks about israel it's very negative, very mean. and the son is much more scared than his father is. but he echos his father's anger and it comes out through that fear that he -- when he hears an israeli air strike, he's fearful, but then he takes his father's anger and turns it in to his own. so there is a generational problem here. >> oh, yeah. >> reporter: of people assuming that violence is the normal part

of life. and that has been passed from the father's generation to the children who i am speaking to. >> all right, nick schifrin for us in gaza city. nick, appreciate it, thank you. some perspective now on the scale of this conflict. i reel says it has discovered tons of tunnels. they say is the israeli strikes have killed at least 285 palestinians and injured 2200 more on the israeli side. two people have died including a soldier in last night's operation, 28 israelis have been injured. the israeli army says hamas has fired 1600 rock nets to israel in the past 11 days, israel's iron dome defense system has intercepted more than 300 headed toward populated areas. the israelis say operation protective edge is aimed at dismantling hamas' military capability. army has been under intense

scrutiny for the loss of life, at least 80% of the dead are civilians. israel says it is trying to minimize casualties as it expand the offensive. >> well, we have over the last 11 days increased pressure on hamas, taking it up a no one every single day and, indeed, the last notch was what happened at 10:00 last night. we have the operations which are ongoing, mostly in the periphery in the outer areas of the gaza strip to deal with the terrorist factions. it can go deeper it, can go wider. it has a lot to on 'do with how hamas operates. we have tried to avert this situation and avert the escalation several times in the last 11 days, unfortunately, hamas obviously don't. >> general reports now from jerusalem. >> reporter: the rocket sirens are going off as far as away as tel aviv. more than 100-kilometers away. the further south you go in more

people are aware because there are more rockets down there. even here people are aware of in part because of the new rules being instituted. that large gatherings. you can't have an outdoor concert. of course within 40-kilometers those rules are more strict. no summer schools, no summer camps, no outdoor gatherings even relatively small ones. we are also learning just a little bit more about the one death that we know that has occurred since this ground invasion operates. as it turned out, according to military -- israeli military officials, that was a friendly fire incidents. it involved a soldier killed by tank fire. mistakenly aimed at him, we are told. so that kind of thing does highlight the dangers of this mission. israelis are very concerned as people in any other country about their own troops getting killed. and in this case, they have lost

two, one in a tunnel incidents and then one as we have just learned in a friendly fire tank incidents. so people here do know what's going on. they know this is all about going after the rockets and that the prime minister's efforts to direct the military to go after those tunnels is designed to stop the ability of hamas - and other groups in gaza to launch those rockets. mitch more on the invasion of gaza coming up, including our interviews with the spokes men for israel's foreign men industry, and a spokes man from hamas. plus president obama on the attack of the malaysian airlines flight. he says the missile that shot it down came from russian separatists territory. we are back in a moment. when you run a business, you can't settle for slow.

surface-to air-missile controlled by russian accept -- shot from an area controlled by russian open cysts. the president laid the blame not downing of this commercial jet at the feet of pro russian separatists and russia itself. >> reporter: that's right. it's an interesting semantic distinction that the president and officials are making today. yes, the president is walking up leaving very little doubt where he thinks the blame should be pointed, and that is at the russian separatists and by extension, russia itself whom he blames for supplying them and training them with heavy arms much like the sa11 that surface to aramis that would brought down this plane resulting in the tragic death of 298 people. however, at the same time, the administration saying it doesn't want to prejudge the outcome of investigations. that's why the president on the other hand clearly encouraging ukraine and russian separatists,

he's calling for a ceasefire now, insisting, really that, investigators be allowed to have free access to that site so that they can investigate. and, of course, the administration believes once that investigation by inter nation and partial observers is over, that they will in fact implicate the accept it's and by extension the russians. here is what the president had to say. >> the separatists have received a steady support from russia, this includes arms and training. it includes heavy weapons, and it includes antiaircraft weapo weapons. >> reporter: here is the important part, tony, if this does implicate the separatists in russia, what about europe? after all, it's been the president ever since the invasion of crime request and the subsequent annexation of crimea and the action to his destabilize eastern ukraine by provoking these russian

separatists throughout the course of this year, beginning in february the president has tried to bring european along in trying to impose tougher sanctions and getting tougher with russia. the president says it will be a wake up call to finally get tough if they are implicated. >> the president joined the growing chorus for credible national investigation in to the crash and warned against interference by the separatists and russia. did he suggest what kind of action the u.s. might consider if access wasn't granted or if there was some kinds of interference with the investigation? >> reporter: i think that the president is looking at this both ways. if, in fact, the access is granted and there is an investigation without interference. in other words, all of these international investigators and, again, the president is stressing the role of the u.n. and the osce and other international i agencies. because by their nature it would be more impartial and less subject to questioning after the fact f, in fact, they do implicate the separatists in

russia the president has the case to take to the europeans. if they do not, if it is a result of tampering with the evidence, of a lack of integrity at the crash scene, obviously already reports now unconfirmed that many have -- some have made off with the black boxes from this flight, well, then the president can point to that as tampering as well. i think they are trying to cover both end and every possible eventuality. tony. >> mike viqueira for us at the white house. thank you, mike. russia is facing growing international pressure to reignn in pro-russian separatist in the wake of the crash. rory challands is in moscow with a look at the next steps. >> reporter: i think we are going to be seeing three different types of russian response. the first is on the kind of high-level diplomatic stage. the kind of which we heard from vitale the russian ambassador to the united nations security council. he blames ukraine for what has happened. and said that ukraine must take

full culpability because it was in ukrainian air space that this disaster happened. then i think domestically, we will see bluster. in fact, as barack obama was making his press conference earlier "o" there was a tweet from alexander, a united russia party deputy who was saying that barack obama was lying without blushing. but thirdly, i think behind closed doors, there is going to be deep worry here in moscow if any party that is looking in to this tragedy can firmly point the finger, convincingly point the finger at the pro-russian accepseparatists active in ukras it hugely damning other an international level and it will have to make a very difficult decision. does russia keep on supporting

of rebels as the u.s. has accused of it doing or does it decide to cut them adrift. if it doesn't cut them adrift then as the united states has hinted, there may be much more damaging sanctions down the line. vietnam is brace to go a typhoon expected to hit tomorrow. boat owners secured vessels, fishermen and tour operators were told to come back to her and stake shelter let's check in with dave warren who is actually tracking this system for us, dave. >> meteorologist: we watch this storm intensity before it moved to southern china. we'll see a lot of reports coming in. storm surge will be a big problem. it became a super typhoon, wind over 150 miles an hour. water is being forced in to this bay here across southern china. storm surge could be a big issue as we see the reports starting to come n not nearly as intense but still pretty powerful the latest from the typhoon warning center has the wind at 145 miles

an hour. 230 meals east of hanoi and this is continuing to move off to the northwest. the track will take it right along the border there and once it's inland over the mountain us terrain it will fail part. but inland flooding along with the storm surge could be a big problem here. it's affected more than 12 million people in china and the storm surge could be over 12 feet and that was this morning as it moved over the area. the rapid intensification occurred right before it hit landfall. we'll start to see these reports coming in. as far as the rest of the tropics across the pa specific, another tropical storm is developing here moving in to areas which are unfavorable for development. so that could fall apart here, that's the next tropical storm. quick look at the northwest here. we are era quality alerts because of the fires in washington. air quality alerts issued in idaho and western montana. the smoke in the air making the visibilities lower and affecting the air quality there. we are watching that dry

situation out west. >> you are a busy man as usual. thank you, dave. coming up on al jazerra, israeli officials say the ground offensive in gaza is a mission to triple hamas' militarism we will get both sides of the story from insiders, that's next.

>> you have the story of 13 palestinian fighters who began to infiltrate a kibbutz before

they were killed by an israeli airstrike. that has israelis concerned. that said where i am, that far away, jerusalem life goes on as normal. shops are open. clothing stores are open. people are out, hotels are doing their usual business. none of that is happening in gaza. the affect here is being felt very much, but it's being felt much more strongly in gaza. but israelis are fed up with the rocket attacks. they're very supportive of netanyahu's effort to go after them, and he has already begun to lower expectations somewhat saying after this, this doesn't mean that hamas will be eliminated, and it doesn't mean that we'll even be 100% effective in this operation at eliminating their rocket-firing capability even after the ground invasion is over. >> which is what we generally hear during the course of one of

these flareups. john, secretary of state john kerry is offer to go head to the region to help find a diplomatic solution. what's happening on that front? >> so far nothing. it's not clear exactly why kerry's involvement isn't more aggressive, as you say he has offered út

offered. >> let's not pretend that combat is pure science. it's a difficult place to be oh. and the sector out of uniform in civilian situations. both of which are war crimes. we in the west who focus our discourse on the right and freedom of the individual, the rule of law, the quality before the law, we find ourselves up against the school of thought

and there is a place in society where they worship death. if he want we can go into what military targets means, but we're doing everything we possibly can to avoid civilian casualties from numbering them through leaflets, phones calls and text messages and sound bombs so that they understand, so there is no misunderstanding where what is being targeted. at the same time we have a the committing of war crimes who is discouraging and in some cases preventing their own civilians from getting out of harms way. >> is diplomacy in your mind dead for the moment? >> diplomacy is not dead. but the primary obstacle. we're going to resolve our differences with the palestinian people. let me be clear, the palestinian

people are not our enemy. we're going to resolve our differences with the palestinian people and the people at large for the very reason that it's for our mutual interest. we all may be stubborn and hard nose about it, it may take 20 years or 2 years, but that's the great strategy, but it will happen. that's the point we need to keep our eyes on the vision and where we are going. >> i also spoke with the senior spokesman for hamas, and i asked whether they were giving the egyptian cease-fire proposal any consideration. >> i would have to say that the proposal was for the media. they have informed the egyptians that this will not work.

and it's not accepted by the extremists. if there any new ideas it will be discussed. but the old ideas are not available and not working any more. >> well, this is interesting because abu mazen, and mahmoud abbas and the egyptian foreign minister seem to be suggesting strongly that the cease-fire proposal is alive while expressing frustration with hamas for not sharing what is being described by the egyptians as a desire to protect the palestinian people in gaza. what is your reaction? >> well, no one can talk about the prediction of the palestinian people and the resistence. no one can predict of it working and how to give them the upper hand.

and at the end of their, they will to stop. this is not how we want to go on. if they want, we have to be clear about the situation together. the end of the siege. the end of the collective punishments. the wholit is about the whole process. everything has to come together. it's supposed to work to protect palestinian lives. if he's not doing that, then his work will not be accepted. there is no clear ideas from the egyptian side to the palestinian

side. they have both sides, the occupation, and it will be declared. >> no one, i think we can agree on human terms on this point. no one should have to live under the threat of rocket fire. the firing of rockets by hamas is, you would have to agree, ineffective and illegal because it targets civilians. citizens, why do this? >> the problem is occupation. the result is occupation. the occupation is trying to destroy the palestinians. if it continues it will destroy palestinians and their rights. i want to say clearly we have the same problem.

the problem is the focus, the problem is the occupation. the occupation for the palestinian land. the occupation of the palestinians every day. and preventing them from having a normal life from. >> again that was hamas spokesman. emergency workers are picking through malaysian flight 317. all 298 people on board died. scott heidler is th one of the first on th on the scene. >> reporter: you can see that they're bargain with sticks. they're marking bodies. this is a farm road that divides the debris field. they've been in there, and you

can see the stakes where there are remains. what is interesting when one of these gentleman, right when i walked past this debris field, they said there are too many bodies. we don't have enough stakes. they're moving on to a different area. this is the tail section of this aircraft here. the tail fin is over here. this part is here. then back up the road you have bigger debris field. you have one on this side and one further down. it seems to be the biggest debris field. you can see the landing gear. both engines are there. there is even a little bit of a groove in the earth. these gentlemen are willing to be marking with the bodies are. this is now an international incident is that the investigation as to why these men are looking for bodies. >> michael: we are learning more about the people who died in the crash. jonathan betz is here with more

details. >> reporter: so many sad stories today. more than 300 people were on board that flight and we learn the nationalities of 16 more victims. they include aid researchers, a nun, families returning from vacation, and one passenger was an american. >> obama: we know one american citizen. quinn louis schatzman was killed. we accepted our thoughts with his family. >> reporter: he was a dual dutch citizen. his facebook page is full of condolences. he attended a business school in amsterdam, and he moved there just in april. another with an mother connection is a 25-year-old student at indiana university. she is from amsterdam and was

recruited to join the university's rowing team. she was a doctorial student in the i.u. college ever arts and sciences. straight-a student and a champion rower. her coach said that she was the leader of the best boat they had that year. now the indiana university president expressed his thoughts: those are just some of the hundreds of people killed in that flight. a small sampling, tony, of the suffering felt across the world. >> the investigation into the crash is centered on who carried out the attack. u.s. intelligence owes officials believe the plane was brought down by a-to-air missile. ukraine is accusing russian rebels of shooting it down. mean russian president vladimir putin has not addressed the key question of whether russia gave the rebels such a powerful

missiles system. phil ittner joins us now from london. at this moment what international investigators are gaining access, have access to the crash site? >> reporter: well, tony, they have sent a group from the organization for security and corporation in europe. the osce. about 30 of them went to the crash site in the end not all of them were allowed there. they say that they were not given what they were promised, and that is unrestricted access to the site. they say some pro-russian separatists did keep them away from some areas, so they're disappointed with that. also keep in mind, tony, in addition those were monitors who had been there for quite some time, since this conflict has been going on. they're not experts in aviation or crashes. they were just the closest international service to be on hand. the international community, europe in community, is now gathering together experts, but they say the clock is ticking.

they need to get in as soon as possible. there needs to be a cease-fire so they can get in safely because those bodies are lying out there in the field. every day that goes by the clues and the information deteriorates. so the international community is insisting that there is an unfettered totally pan international group that is allowed to go in there and go in there quick. >> phil, what did the u.n. security council say about an investigation? >> well, now that was interesting as well today tony. what we saw at the u.n. security double were two diametric polls. saying russia you are behind all of this. you have instigated this situation. you may not have pulled the trigger but you're certainly supporting the separatists. on the other side we see the

russians saying the west and the government in kiev are irresponsible. they're pushing the separatists--now this is what the russian ambassador had to say clearly placing the blame on the other side of the equation. >> today kiev declared a foreclosure of the air space in conducting a so-called anti-terrorist operation. why couldn't this have been done earlier, not waiting for hundreds of victims to occur. we call on the ukraine side to stem such incidents in the future. >> reporter: now tony, you have to keep in mind this entire conflict has been like this. it is the perspective that you come from that says who the bad guy is in this situation. russia is still standing by the west and an illegitimate government in kiev. of course the west is saying proxy fighters being supported from russia. in the midst of all this tragedy

still an awful lot of finger pointing. >> phil, thank you. german chancellor angela merkel takes on spying. >> reporter: german chancellor angela merkel said she's willing to hold talks over u.s.' spying program. after two alleged spying cases were uncovered it adds to the year of tension between the u.s. and germany. merkel said trust could be restored through talks but she doesn't expect a quick result. president obama is allowing drilling companies to use sonic canons to explore along the east coast. the canons shoot sound waives 100 times louder than a jet engine into the water. environmentalists worry that it could damage sea life. the university of connecticut has reached an element in a sexual assault

lawsuit. uconn has not admitted any wrongdoing but hassed a agreed to pay $1.3 million to five women who sued. the school is accused of not doing enough to handle their assault complaint. a hockey player said she was kicked off the team after reporting that a male player raped her in 2011. now under a proposed plan 46,000 prisoners could apply for commentcy. no early releases would be offered before 2015. it's part of eric holder's wider strategy to change the war on drugs. >> i'm grad we were able to get to the stories. there was a lot going on. we'll see you later in the program. coming up on al jazeera america. happen u.s. military satellites can tell us about the attack on

malaysian airline

presents... holy money only on al jazeera america >> >> as we've been telling you, the malaysian airline has been shot down. let's bring in david shuster who has been looking at this side of the story. >> reporter: ever since february 1 it appeared that

russia might be preparing to invade ukraine, a collection of military satellites have been focused on the russian-ukrainian border, and that intense and high-tech surveillance paid off. according to u.s. intelligence officials evidence that the jetliner has been brought down by a missile came from satellites orbiting 22,000 miles above the earth. equipped to detect heat significant anytures like explosions. about 30 seconds later a blast was detected when the missile hit the plane. as news reports begin to show ground images like this, u.s. analysts say they reviewed imagery of equipment nearby capable of such an attack. russian-backed separatists made to secret that they owned

russian made aircraft missiles launched with high tech electronics. the missile is 18 feet long. guided by radar and has a range of 26 miles in distance and 36,000 feet in altitude. thit will travel at the speed of sound so fast that the plane would not see it coming. to bolster the case between the separatists and russia, ukrainian intelligence released this video showing a system in separatist hands short one of its missiles. ukrainian intelligence said that it was recorded in separatist territory just hours after the jetliner crashed. meanwhile russia denounced that it had anything to do with the jetliner disaster. >> it's strange to think that they could do this without some measure of russian support and

assistance. >> some of that sans was also detected by u.s. satellites. the officials say that there is significant evidence that ukrainian separatists learned how to operate surface to air missile systems from training detected inside russian territory. >> so clearly u.s. intelligence working thon story. any suggestion as to the possible motive? >> reporter: analysts are increasingly convinced that this was simply a case of the straightists thought they were targeting an ukrainian military plane, not a civilian jetliner. >> david shuster for us. thank you. coming up, the attack that killed students. tourists, researchers, we'll look at how they're being remembered today.

>> tomorrow >> prop 8, really made us think about this process of coming out. >> meet the committed couples >> gay marriages, straight marriages... have the same challenges. >> it's all about having the same options as everybody else. >> that fought for equality >> saying "i do" changed everything. >>every saturday, join us for exclusive, revealing and surprising talks with the most interesting people of our time. "talk to al jazeera" tomorrow 5 eastern only on al jazeera america

>> each member on board of the malaysian flight 31 317 has a family who are grieving today. we're looking at social comments. >> reporter: early on we found out some of the passengers on board were going to--president obama mentioned them today. take a look. >> on board there were 100 researchers and advocates traveling to an international correspondence in australia dedicated to combating a.i.d.s. h.i.v. these are people who had dedicated their own lives to saving the lives of others, and they were taken to us in a sense of the worst act of violence. in this world today we should not forget that in the midst of conflict and killing there are people like these. people who are focused on what can be built rather than can be destroyed. people who are focused on how

they can help people that they've never met. people who define themselves not by what makes them different from other people but by the humanity that we hold in common. >> one of those humanitarians is a top h.i.v. researcher and former president of the international aids society and a father of five girls. he's quoted quoted as having said once, if we can get a cold can of coke to anywhere in africa we can certainly get them a.i.d.s. treatment. >> reporter: also glen thomas from the "world health organization" was headed to the a.i.d.s. congress. gregory writes, a great friend and colleague, missed by his partner claudio and his family. and a dutch a.i.d.s. campaigner was also on the flight. 's described as a person loved by oh many, and an advocate for

human rights. some of the passengers were traveling on holiday. this facebook page said a man who truly loved music. it has all come to an end. and darrell a student and deejay, and he posted this image right before the flight, off to the philippines and vietnam for a month. and also people had been paying tribute who had posted a video just before take off in what appears to be passengers settling in their seats. his friends share the video with us. take a look. folks are leaving condolence notes on the crew on board. a friend described her, well, i

guess her smile says it all, vivacious and always full of life. as well as the youngest cabin crew member on board described as happy-go-lucky, very jovial, and a good person at heart. >> that's terrific. thank you. our coverage continues with "inside story." >> president obama said the do downing of a passenger plane over ukraine is a wake-up call for europe and the world. while he supports israel's ground support in gaza he advocates a return to the u.s.-brokered peace talks. word crisis zone is this "inside story."
