1:02 pm
we're looking at the most severe escalation in violence since the 2014 war on the gaza strip and right now nowhere is safe it is currently 1 pm there and from night until now israel has launched a series of air strikes destroying a police headquarters government buildings as well they have bombed residential buildings buildings which house media offices this one right across the street from our bureau. and as you can imagine the impact very much felt in our office you can see the destruction of the al-jazeera girls of our journalists forced to take cover from all that glass on the ground there thankfully they are all safe but at least $44.00 palestinians have been killed since monday now the armed wing of the palestinian group hamas and its allied factions have also launched more than
1:03 pm
a 1000 rockets aimed at southern and central israel. that is what is known as the iron dome israel's defense system which intercepts those rockets the rockets have a large range as well from tel aviv in the north in the south. and while that's happening there's a parallel crisis in israel's mixed palestinian israeli towns and neighborhoods in lid the mayor has called it look at the numbers of people are calling it almost like a civil war the israeli government imposed a state of emergency as well here we go with the team across the region right now near it bring him in ramallah in the occupied west bank harry force that is in southern israel we're starting in gaza itself so what loot is there we see the smoke behind you stuff what tell us what this morning's been like. let's start with the latest according to the minister of health they say 44 palestinians have been
1:04 pm
killed by the israeli fire including 13 children. 3 women and the number of injured raised to about 300 palestinian israelis we could hear explosions every almost every minute every minute in many places all over the gaza strip and you think the israelis have resumed strongly the policy of calling people not only high buildings but even normal buildings of families so they have now 34 families so far have been called by the israeli army and they were asked to evacuate their homes after minutes they have destroyed them one of the families in the north of gaza's in jabalya they refused. to really warning and that if used to leave the house they are now climbing the top of
1:05 pm
their building on the appealing even the neighborhood on everybody to come and support them. to bow and that are really or an affair or did they think that it could prevent the israelis from bumping their homes so this is. from now on we will see more related to similar actions which they believe this is one of the most painful. and strong israeli action against gaza than. just minutes ago also they destroyed a house in just one kilometer from our beautiful. in the center of gaza that they called the family the family evacuated after minutes simply destroyed a 30 floors house for the same family. the fighting groups in gaza also let's talk about what hamas. the military wing of hamas who announced that it has adopted
1:06 pm
a new started you know following the developments that they have targeted with the court of the. court in the throat that one of the israeli military vehicles along the border that they say the israelis confessed 11 killed one israeli soldier killed and 2 others injured but we have no confirmation from the israeli side right since we are expecting more and more of collision. reading what is going on there is no mediation succeeded to the situation between both sides which means is that god is expecting more. and of course retain the fighting groups also. promising the israel is collision would be confronted by. another level of escalation by the fall and rise an armed group yeah and so the cycle carries doesn't itself what i'll call it in gaza thank you stay safe there let's move to southern israel here's harry force at an update from you harry. yes
1:07 pm
just confirming what south what was talking about just then the israeli military has told us that yes one of its military jeeps was struck by an anti-tank missile earlier in the morning we know that one person has died in that 2 others injured one of them in critical condition so that is the latest here as for the the overnight developments there were repeated again very heavy rocket fire coming out of gaza. attacking various parts of central and southern israel among those killed overnight were a father and a daughter in the town of lord to the east of tel aviv a palestinian israeli father and daughter who were killed in the courtyard there's been discussion about the lack of access to it to a bomb shelter for that family and they add now to the death toll on the
1:08 pm
israeli side there is also this parallel issue and this is just. almost equally important as to how this the next few days and weeks play out this comment of violence that has been erupting in mixed jewish arab cities around israel already we saw benjamin netanyahu in lord where there was a big conflagration overnight and he was there at 2 am in the morning he's now in the northern city of acre and the defense minister benny gantz has said that the border forces who are stationed normal in the occupied west bank they're not just being deployed to lord but also to acre and to haifa so this is an unequal perhaps not equal but it's a parallel concern to the israeli government this eruption of violence in its cities which are already under attack from rocket fire right ok thank you for all of that harry force that in southern israel on the ground there and now to ramallah in the occupied west bank it's needed abraham what can you tell us from there. to.
1:09 pm
palestinians were killed after the israeli army treated different cities in the occupied west bank where confrontations erupted between palestinians and the israeli army its 26 year old was killed in an for water. have grown a 60 to 16 year old from. so this kind of nightly of raids is not something new for palestinians it we see it's happening almost on a daily basis around $10.00 to $15.00 palestinians over these raids every day they get arrested but this time we've seen until now an initial report spoke about 46 palestinians were arrested in the majority of them are either previous palestinian prisoners or affiliated with hamas so as to you can see that this issue of detention is happening almost every day and it's very close to the hearts and minds
1:10 pm
of palestinians since the occupation of the west bank and the gaza strip including east jerusalem in 1967 more than 800000 tallest indians were detained by israel so it is one element of the israeli occupation and it is all of these violations by these raids that the israeli government is driving the palestinians to protest there there are calls that we've seen in the past few days asking palestinians to go to confrontation points while the situation remains of relative calm in the occupied west bank this doesn't mean that we're not going to be seeing any escalation here we've seen in the past some sort of what this called lone wolf attacks where palestinians will either drop their cars into israeli military checkpoints in the west bank or somewhere threatening with knife attacks or even see in some small. operations hit and hit in the west bank so
1:11 pm
for example we've put this question. to an analyst just telling us that even the palestinians do not see a hope in this current escalation but they see that they have an ability to inflict pain and that maybe that's at least some sort of a power that they've discovered in fighting the israeli occupation. and that is needed abraham bringing us up to date from ramallah in the occupied west bank thank you on the news from west jerusalem leon hyatt who is the israeli foreign ministry spokesman mr hyde thank you for your time we appreciate it i have been reading tweets from the foreign ministry the israeli foreign ministry which say hamas is firing rockets from civilian areas deliberately targeting israeli civilians however i would say to that that israel has been hitting police media and residential buildings in gaza. first of all
1:12 pm
a low to everyone shalom from jerusalem is really under terror attack but it's un-american to station a mass over the last 36 hours there were over $1000.00 missiles that were. shot form be launched from the gaza strip to the civilian areas in east will all of them every each and every one of those missiles were targeted civilian areas israel targets only the terrorists in the gaza strip and we are trying to heat only the from us in other terror and station members and we are doing. it in a very precise and measured way in order to prevent. any casualties from people who are not even justice it's just sorry to interrupt you. but just as you are saying that. i'm sorry i can't really hear you if you look at loud ok let
1:13 pm
me very hard to just stop for a moment and then because as you are speaking right now we are looking at the pictures of a residential building being hit in dallas right now i know that the israeli military says that they fire almost a warning shot 1st and which is an advice to people to get out of the building but does that make it ok that you can destroy people's homes their residential buildings media buildings as well just because you told them to get out. if you get the masses using those buildings there is their infrastructure for terrorists and this is their headquarters as it places where the idea of weapons obviously this is a military target we are doing as i said the out most effort in order not to eat any civilians but we will hear again for a structure of the target a mask because this is how come that's what they're doing this is actually a double cross you work right 1st of all they are shooting from civilian areas and
1:14 pm
. using siegel the civilians of the gaza strip as there is human shields and the 2nd we work. it completely these days there are huge shooting in civilians in israel so if they use the same day and me were in shelters and safe rooms over the last few hours i mean during the night because they are trying to eat civilians so you're saying then that you'll find i'm sorry to interrupt you again i know our connection isn't great and i know you meant she does history are you saying then that the collateral damage is ok with israel because 44 palestinians have been killed they have been children among them as well media were targeted as well or they were hit at least our own bureau felt it the glass was shattered in our own al-jazeera bureau they were not a target no media in gaza should be a target but are you saying that israel is ok with that being collateral damage because you're fighting hamas. first of all i never said that and i'm that's why
1:15 pm
i'm asking you to clarify. words in my mouth i'm going to clarify it's a question you ask a question and don't try to give an answer in my name but what i'm saying and i was very precise in saying that he's well he's doing it out most in order to prevent collateral damage if there is collateral damage he sees not the goal of the east really military strikes in the gaza strip what we are trying to achieve is to hit the terrorist leaders of the master and his nation and if infrastructure in order to stop should be the launching of missiles on israeli civilians and in order to. make the mass understand that you will once keep us as hostages in should act israeli civilians whenever they want to and that he's the right of every sovereign country please let me finish to defend itself he sees it work of self it
1:16 pm
defense by each each started by come us launching missiles on the capital of peace on jerusalem in exceeded that they can consider to be holy so just imagine out what happened in the last 36 hours over 101000 war crimes by come us ok i'm let me interrupt you sir and that we're let me interrupt you because i want to since i'm sorry i want to. i want to ask you another question now i want to ask another question because we've got limited time and i want to make sure we get the questions to you i was not putting words into your mouth i was asking you for a clarification but here is one more point for you you are focusing on civilians and rightly so there are israeli civilians who are under fire from hamas rockets in gaza there are 2000000 people not all of them are hamas a lot of them the bulk of them are civilians and they are locked in their israel is not them in their israel won't let them out so a person in israel can go somewhere else or they can go to their bomb shelter what about the person in gaza who can't get out because you've got the place down.
1:17 pm
unfortunately we are not we understand the situation of civilians but the role of the duty of every country is to protect their civilians actually what he's really doing is protect israelis and palestinians in gaza as well because we are not targeting them unfortunately they are ruled by a terror organization and the situation there which them as human shields or a terrorist organization that rules the gaza strip we are we don't want to eat or target the civilians in gaza we are doing everything possible we're using every measure possible we needed to heat the. terrorists precisely in the minimum collateral damage possible under any international. is doing its our utmost in order to prevent collateral damage ok here
1:18 pm
hamas she's doing to israelis and work at target recently the mask is doing to the only people they are hired i mean it's human going to. be heat of that in number but i guess if you get to high and low i'm sorry to interrupt you but i do have a number of other guests to get to apologies for the audio concerns and thank you for your time leah hyatt the israeli foreign ministry spokesman our next guest is from ramallah with the palestinian authority ambassador here john is a who is the assistant minister for multilateral affairs thank you for your time to be clear for our viewers of course you are the palestinian authority based in the occupied west bank hamas is running in affairs in gaza however you are all palestinians what are you are you able to do anything to help them at this point. unfortunately it is. the reality that israel has been.
1:19 pm
beyond of the international law for so long and has been treated as such that exceptionalism that has been granted for israel for so long is the software which we see big. but nonetheless we we don't international mechanisms and the national institutions off the responsibilities of absolve them of the excuse for so with these we are knocking all the doors possible. to stop this carnage against our people and this attack on civilians that we are witnessing today in gaza and everywhere else in the occupied palestinian territory how do you respond to the i guess they are allegations in effect of the palestinian authority is not strong enough that in fact it cooperates outside of these water times it in fact cooperates a lot with israel on issues to do with security and then when an issue comes like this you actually find yourself quite powerless. the palestinian authority the
1:20 pm
government off the list land is very clear when it comes to issues of cooperation with these are all limited to be signed agreements and they are severed and stopped when. you needed specially in circumstances like this but nonetheless we did that does not also all stop us from up holding dollar duties towards our own people including in relation to defending them protecting them from such carnage is such effects and defending their rights and this is exactly what we are doing and the security council in the international criminal court at the international court of justice and everywhere around the world we are doing is against our people we might not be the. fighters and the the rockets that this israel has and uses against our people nonetheless we stand in the face off is the
1:21 pm
real politic legally and at each and every front to defend our people we provide to our people in gaza and every word to to to to ensure that they are resilient and they continue living on on their land this is what i wanted to ask you you talk about communications and with the people in gaza there is a cycle here and there is an endless argument over who starts it but we know there are rockets from gaza we know there are airstrikes from israel and they keep increasing on both sides do you at any point say to hamas in the gaza strip pull back stop it try to deescalate or are you happy for them to keep us going because that's what they say the masses said clearly if israel escalates we escalate as well. well the whole responsibility for poorly on israel in israel is the only responsible for all of this up and this is not
1:22 pm
something that started yesterday this ongoing onslaught against our people is continuous whether it is by destroying their lives and their livelihoods in the west bank and elsewhere in the occupied palestinian territory or by forcibly displaced from jerusalem and that is where the reality is that we are living under a regime that does not. give any weight or order and they respect to palestinian lives and have a colonial enterprise on our land and forcibly displacing us and replacing us with jewish israelis. and this is this is the bottom of the story the story is 57 years of occupation that has been going on for so long and that has been affecting each and every aspect of our life has collision the last stand of
1:23 pm
our skule shows that not start yesterday or with hamas as rockets started since the beginning of the holy month which we have been warning against and then we have sent several letters to the security council and to the rest of the ward informing them that this will will will end up in a violent way and you'll have little or no thanks in those organizations sergeant ruptures sir but do you have any faith in the united nations of the united states to do something we have our 1st and foremost faith is on our in our here but nonetheless our continuing continued. struggle on our land but nonetheless we cannot spur the beast organizations that claim to be established to the front rights of people and to uphold international peace officer purity and security of their duties. and we will continue to not only each and every door internationally and not to me and this. until our rights are recognized and
1:24 pm
respected just like everyone around the world this exceptionalism for israel is not acceptable anymore for our people and i think it is a test for the whole international system and it's showing what the system is made up of this is why now the palestinians have a stronger voice in these organizations now we are partly through civil international treaties which allows us to further involve other rights and challenge the system. with the palestinian authority thank you for your time so we appreciate it we have talked a lot about the outgoing rocket fire from gaza and want to focus on that for a moment because obviously it is not new what is new is the distance and the range have a look at this map of the region i want to give you a bit of perspective 1st of all the gaza strip there approximately 40 kilometers long ok now if we take our starting point of around here which is gaza city these areas ashdod and ashkelon they've always been within reach of the palestinian
1:25 pm
rockets 21 kilometers 38 kilometers to those areas but look at the reach elsewhere now getting to be in the south that's 41 kilometers there it is $77.00 over to jerusalem and further north it is 70 to tell of it so there is a much bigger range from all these rockets and as we mentioned a 1000 of them have headed out over just the last few days so we're going to talk to elias hanner about those who is a retired military general and a strategic analyst he's on skype from beirut thank you for your time so how is he doing this i mean the gaza strip is under blockade there is very tight controls of what comes in and out and between the last conflict and now they appear to have only increased their capabilities. i think this is like between israel and hamas and the killer and every time you have a clash you have a different context different political context what it is local between the
1:26 pm
palestinian order in israel or as well as indonesian now. means i mean. the capability to really. manufacture internally disguised of things. like that and at all remember like in the small rocket. not more than the port kilometers but with time with help from outside we have to be. frank and with the internal dynamics of manufacturing you can really. achieve these kind of capabilities and this is like a semantical approach that you have to be it's not like survival issue existential issue for israel however it really disturbs sure. and really the whole much israel is highly vulnerable to such kind of things and in the government like
1:27 pm
dilemma there why because you have 2 front war and i mean the field officer is to fight on 2 front war lebanon with 150000 missiles and say ses and. how must the. fighting in thought front war and if you add this see in front it's like a 3 front war with limited geography and limited strategic depth it could be a dilemma so instead of going outside and pockets on the iranian issue what's happening in syria so that it will be. 'd you know. drowned internally so it's a very important question right so it's good to get that perspective that it is much wider than just these areas that said is there potential here for this to be a more protracted conflict these escalations often last well weeks into months but if the masses better armed this time and is saying we will continue to escalate i
1:28 pm
mean this could be a lot worse than we saw in 2014 or 2009. yes but it depends on i mean when how much this is my or on opinion one how much really tries to do something it goes into another preferences of israel it goes into the constraints of israel would go and make like a land warfare and that i had or could buy been and 2014 or something like that not so. that context the political context as that is in a context as well as maybe the american you and the decision want a law all this to happen so you can see it and but i do have a less 3 however i mean they are using like one. missile a 120 with that angel 120 kilometer so do they have these kind of capability or this kind of for existing in this kind of supply chain for this kind of things so we have to wait and see but at least in this last clash. it really bloody
1:29 pm
fired or said it was. really a thing of the like think for them a lot of deterrence we other i think the rule of engagement we have fired like 7120 kilometers missiles maybe we don't have enough but maybe in the future who have to think in the course of the nation this capability and it was a pleasure to talk to you to get your expertise thank you for your time thank you. still more ahead on this news on the israeli palestinian violence we're going to hear how previous violence as they've been the humanitarian crisis already and particularly affecting its children we will have the rest of the day's news and we'll have some sport as well with joe reaction from manchester a city when they have the premier league title in full season.
1:30 pm
well there we're dealing with widespread instability across europe but i want to pinpoint where i think some severe outbreaks of weather could be on thursday running the risk toward northern areas of italy and also through the czech republic as well heavy rain too in and around moscow that will continue on friday and here we go as well seen a heavy push of rain once again for the south of france in particular for corsica island where we just saw months worth of rain in 24 hours another helping of rain goes through there and just seeing that widespread instability but a heavy pocket of rain too for moscow a look at this we have a familiar friend knocking on the door for the united kingdom just in time for the weekend on cue will swoop into the u.k. it will bring temperatures down introduced some stronger winds you know the name of the game right ok toward south africa have been kong and settled over the last few
1:31 pm
days so this is a picture on thursday cape town 1000 degrees it is certainly been much needed after dealing with the flooding situation in the western cape but now i'm going to take you to ward saturday where we get another plume of moisture move in stressed by i don't think it will affect you as badly this time but cape town 35 millimeters of rain. from the al-jazeera london broadcast center to people in thoughtful conversation the story of the world is that the global size developed the global wealth and continues to do that with no host and no limitations the corporation if it were a human would act like a psychopath part one of the and i said well we have to reduce our consumption here but we also need economic justice full. studio be unscripted on al-jazeera
1:32 pm
the world of high frequency shed trading exposed and there's an engine that was basically trading i could've lost $30000000.00 it was a terrifying experience how to fish an intelligence has raised the stakes and risks on the money markets as markets go faster faster we are opening up the possibility for instability for no. money books coming soon on al-jazeera. here with al jazeera continuing coverage of the violence in israel and palestine the most severe escalate violence in fact since the 2014 war on the gaza strip from
1:33 pm
night until now israel launching a series of air strikes destroying a police headquarters and government buildings at least 44 palestinians have been killed. palestinian rockets as well have rained down on israeli towns and cities and killed at least 5 people more than a 1000 rockets were fired overnight targeting areas as far away as tel of even the north to push in the south. and with all that happening in the air there is a power crisis in israel's mixed israeli palestinian towns and neighborhoods in live from areas said it's almost like a sit in israeli governments imposed a state of emergency. for the united nations says israel's military operations and the prolonged closure of gaza which we talked about earlier it has caused massive economic damage more than half the population lives in poverty with youth unemployment at almost 70 percent most people have no access to
1:34 pm
safe water regular reliable electricity or even a proper sewage system and the u.n. says that's much higher than it would have been without the 14 years of blockade which stops movement in trade in and out of the strip iraqi die situations been made much worse of course by the pandemic including making already scarce medicines more difficult to access as well as the current humanitarian effects there are fears of a long term impact on children for whom remote learning is impossible because of as we said the electricity shortages and with that the. disruption there's a lot to unpack there we're going to talk to name now who is a communications officer for save the children a resident of the strip as well. i'd almost don't even know where to start with that list but let's go with the children the effect of what they seeing now what the children in 2014 saw what the children in 2009 saw it must be a huge factor in this cycle never being broken. that's definitely
1:35 pm
true and unfortunately this is a cycle that keeps repeating. unfortunately its children are always had the worst way because when there is violence children are not always among the killed and also among the injured and the majority of children in gaza are always traumatized i can tell you this from the experience of my children from my colleagues want to talk them they tell me about the children are beneficiaries as well children having it the worst way this time feeling anxiety and fear and sleeplessness and they're seeing nightmares i even looked at my children themselves and. seen behaviors on them before. they're always attentive listening to what's happening outside they're always afraid it's hard for me to get them to sleep i have to 100 them all lie even
1:36 pm
if they wake up to the sounds of explosions i have to love them back to sleep which is a very unfair situation for any child to be do they this is a really strange question because there's nothing normal about what's happening but do they almost feel this is normal because they know it happens they know that there are israeli airstrikes they know that rockets go out from gaza as well they know that it keeps happening this is their life. yes and the worst part is that they feel this is normal that this is the whole what their life. experience on planet earth is like my daughter is 6 years old my son is 5 years old like even last year my doctor told me she was worried for her uncle my brother has another limbs because what if there is an airstrike in the netherlands it would shock me to my core my daughter does not understand that this is not normal this is only. to be . with everything that's happening at the moment and we have to explain to them as
1:37 pm
much as possible like you know this is temporary this is going to. be safe and we'll be ok with this if we were and it's really difficult i know to. go beyond this conflict that we're seeing right now and just take sort of every day life in gaza because i mentioned it in the introduction to your talks about the the lack of electricity internet sewage everything being controlled coming in and out what does that do to a child's upbringing i mean what childhood did they have. this is definitely affecting every part of their life like this let's put the conflict aside and then look at the normal life that would have that we don't have put up a lot. in the end and the tabs and we have to pick your water we do not have consistent access to electricity for example electricity is schedule of 8 hours by
1:38 pm
the hour so it's hours on 8 hours off this is affecting everything related to. the internet to do cation actually and this is particularly critical on their call that for distance learning us on this is a huge issue in the gaza strip and overall affecting the auto supply as well to the house. and look at the overall blockade has had a severe impact on on families well being in gaza there is a large scale poverty in gaza and now you have. security is about 60 percent and and look at the health and gaza as well their system is was at the verge of collapse before this conflict even started because of the 14 years of a blockade down on every aspect of the health system there are shortages in drugs about 45 percent of the drugs are at 0 stock and 31 percent of consumers consumables are u.s.
1:39 pm
stocks as well there are shortages in. the health system is under. and with now it's dealing with with that critical coal that case is ending. and now it would have to deal and they treated the same like more patients and more injuries in the same hospitals this is a. that we have on our hands i mean with any process it is miles and i'm from save the children thank you for your time and for sharing this very personal stories as well stay safe. thank you. so i want to take a look back at what's led to this recent surge of violence we go back to friday 1st of all when israeli forces crackdown on protesters at the mosque compound in jerusalem palestinians threw stones and bottles and fireworks at the police they fired rubber coated bullets and stun grenades there was more violence in occupied east jerusalem the following day when dozens of people were injured as israeli
1:40 pm
police tried to clear groups who were gathering in the city and at the heart of the recent unrest has been shift a neighborhood where palestinian families could also be forced out of their homes to make way for jewish settlers israeli forces launched a 2nd raid on alex a mosque on monday during press how mass then fired a barrage of rockets into israel israel responded with air strikes which are continuing this is what we talk about when we keep saying the cycle and the death toll which continues to mount as well. let's go back there and speak to reporters. thank you so much for your time today water has it been like tell me what it was like overnight. with the strikes. last night there was a heavy bore me through and the gaza strip it has continued until today morning the airstrikes are still going on until this moment we can see that israel is. going
1:41 pm
through the policy of dying directly and deliberately targeting residential tower is in the gaza strip directly targeting apartments in homes and even citizens last night. a 13 story building was directly targeted and brought to totally destroyed and brought to the ground 100 to families have been displaced they never in areas have all been damaged and joe had another tower that is a home to great number of media offices in gaza strip has also been directly targeted with 4 missiles and is in a very bad condition until now assistant tower another is that shell tower has been evacuated and this the bottom stories have been totally destroyed going to. the last apartments 3 apartments until now since the beginning of the
1:42 pm
escalation have been also targeted and the people in them have been killed the last of which was. where a man his pregnant wife and his 2 children 2 year old in 5 year old have been targeted with a missile and have all been killed you know where. that the choice of death is sorry to interrupt but can you tell me when israel says that it always sends a warning shot it sends. smaller bomb 1st which tells people to get out of their buildings when that happens where do people go because they can't leave gaza where is there anywhere safe for them to go. they probably go to their neighbors or if they have other family members in other places also u.n. schools could be a shelter for some of the families i mean hundreds of families now are displaced in
1:43 pm
the streets. in different told they don't know what to do the situation is really tragic for these statilius especially that we are still in the month of ramadan this is last night and today the last day of ramadan so it's a very tragic situation for these families who are left now displaced with nothing they were not able to take anything with them when they ran out of their houses before these towers where evacuated exploded you're. joining us from gaza today thanks for your time. with us now in studio because so much of what we see and hear is now coming to us through social media it is kemal and it's an incredibly polarizing conversation even online but the most used hashtags globally are pro palestinian hashtags like gaza under attack free palestine and israeli terrorism are all trending worldwide with tens of
