a scale not seen in decades has broken out between palestinian israelis and jewish residents in several cities the defense minister has ordered reinforcements to bring it under control. sami i was silent is a palestinian journalist in the gaza resident know that it brought him is also with us from ramallah in the occupied west bank and of course we have harry force that's standing by for us in southern israel let's start 1st of all though with sami in gaza what is the situation now sami. well let's start from the latest we have just received information about a new israeli or fresh israeli raid on a house in the central area of gaza that it is owned house of the former mayor of fiji. eclipsed one killed. trying to rescue teams are trying to start looking for the rest of the family children who

are men who live in this in this in this place so we have a confirmation from our sources that one killed on that rescue teams are trying to find order to move more about this from under the rubble the ministry of health. 83 palestinians have been killed including 17 children and 7 women in addition to 400 palestinian injured and. only go on going israeli sites on the other hand we have also learned that some brigades announced. there will use or they are using and you. say drones that they will be also used to be used for attacking israeli targets which is except lose if the drones this kind of. resistance as they call it will be used for longer range targets and they said that they have even used it yesterday for

attacking one of the israeli gaza stations in the mediterranean sea we don't have any confirmation yet from the israeli side but at least this is the development of the fighting groups before that also the spokesperson of the for the armed wing of hamas will launch some brigades. he also said that they have fired the longest range rocket which is the 1st time does. the palestinian fighting groups use such a longer range rocket which is more than 220 kilometers they give the name of ayyash to this rocket. actually is the fault one of the founder of the military wing of. hamas and he was responsible for. the suicide attacks and. the ninety's and he was assistant at the 1995

by the israelis and the gaza strip still we could hear from time to time that. 'd resulted from. israeli system trying to intercept the shore train. being fired from gaza into southern israel. going back to gaza strip and my way through the face like. the seats were completely emptied as if there were care if you will people prefer to stay home and they have almost stopped all the celebrations of that which include visiting each other visiting families or relatives saw so that there is a different kind of celebrations over you the. people who are staying home because as we described for in gaza there is no 'd infrastructure of.

what people can run can run and so the only choice for people now is to stay home and wait for farther developments regarding reaching the ceasefire which is not clear when would the terms of reaching a cease fire failed all right thanks so much that was so forth from gaza let's go over to harry for said harry we've. well we've had a busy day haven't we had a strikes and then we had 100 rockets launched toward southern israel what's it looking like in southern israel when of course you are. yeah i mean there's been a bit of a lot since that very large barrage of rocket fire came out a couple of hours ago but our stuff what was saying what one of the significant elements there was that one of them was extremely long range thought to be the longest range ever fired out of gaza or close to the landing close to the wrong airport near a lot so that's

a pretty clear indication that hamas wants to inflict a climb down by israel essentially in terms of its own air space because that is where flights had been diverted to arrivals from ben gurion elsewhere those rockets were launched towards. near tel aviv the tel of the of area itself as well in the south of israel and at the same time the israelis are saying that they have destroyed 4 anti-tank missile firing units inside gaza territory during the day and they are drawing up plans for a potential ground offensive now this is something that is being publicized by the israeli military they're saying they're going to put that up the chain of the command all the way to the political echelon by the end of the day and it will be up to them to decide the reports coming out of the that it is being taken seriously

that $7000.00 troops would be involved in such an operation you have to carry out that by saying that that would be a hugely escalatory step seeing more military hardware just as i'm talking about a potential ground invasion coming hostas now ah. it would be one which risks obviously the the death and capture of israeli soldiers so no israeli governor would take that step lightly especially when they've already shown how much they can do how much destruction they can reap from the that will be a decision for the prime minister benjamin netanyahu he. he's been out and about in southern israel earlier today and has been to an iron dome missile interceptor battery and he gave no indication that as far as israel is concerned this is going to be over any time soon. we're going to remove the defense activity of better reasons giving us an offensive space in the israeli defense forces have

already attacked hundreds of targets who will soon pass $1000.00 targets we continue striking hamas will definitively citizens it will take more time but with great firmness and off since as well as difference we will achieve our goal of bringing back come to the state of israel we've also had the developments of communal violence in several israeli cities how is that looking right now harry. it's still a very live problem and one that is has been spiraling for the last couple of days in the israeli government israeli law enforcement has been scrambling to try and do something about the latest videos some of them that we've seen. in one instance a group of young palestinian israeli men attacking a jewish person close to the walls of the old city in occupied east jerusalem we're also seeing footage of what appear to be armed jewish settlers from the occupied west bank assembling in the israeli city of lloyd where there has been

a good lot of good large amount of this violence over the last couple of days so there is a real fear that it will continue the israeli defense minister alternate prime minister rival to benjamin netanyahu benny gantz he has been talking about trying to have accelerated legal proceedings talking to the attorney general to make sure that people receive swift punishment and that that potentially with the idea that acts as a deterrent is also called up thousands of a large number of reservists in the border force who are usually used in the occupied west bank to deploy them inside israeli cities although not the regular army he says and we've just had a report in the last couple of minutes that benjamin netanyahu is talking about administrative detention for some people involved or suspected or potentially even being involved in this violence that is detention without charge it's something

that is has rarely been used for for jewish suspects particular in settler violence is much more typically used for palestinians who don't have access to the regular domestic civil israeli legal system and who live under military law in the occupied west bank so the institution of. that kind of detention without charge in israel all the israeli citizens again gives you an indication of just how serious this crisis developing on 70 fronts is becoming. all right thanks so much gary for said let's go without him and brought him to joins us live from ramallah and detwiler lot of the focus now seems to be on guard let's not forget the tensions in the problems kind of kicked off with the situation in occupied east jerusalem of things now calming down there or is this a bit of a calm before a storm again. as many palestinians would tell you that the courts

delaying the court hearing about the forcible effects of the shift neighborhood might of taken the wind to the of their sails for a little bit they believe that israel is maneuvering to kind of tick down or tick at the effect of the palestinians who are participating in an electronic campaign making their voices heard ordered around the world of what's going on and they've been telling us that even if israel delayed this hearing here and there the plight is the israeli occupation and its measures on the ground be at the. moment expansion in the occupied west bank including use drusilla or of the movement. sorry that is dictions a movement of palestinians that not being able to have a state of their own and also they were telling us that they were frustrated of the deadlock of agency in the palestinian political system they've been criticizing and

mostly we've been hearing that from the use they've been criticizing the palestinian authority saying that it's not doing as much to help them fight the israeli occupation and in times they've been very critical of the security coordination that is going on between the palestinian authority and israel which could be linked to decreasing some of the attacks in the occupied west bank against the israeli military and these really set there is so for palestinians they're telling us that even though they don't trust the palestinian authority they want to fight the israeli occupation on their own so we might be seeing certain forms of violence in the occupied west bank even though it remains relatively calm now all right thanks so much. well as they asked trying to continue so too does violence among palestinian and jewish israelis it's on

a scale not seen in decades the tactics of israeli police are also being called into question more about manly reports and we should warn the viewers you might find some of the images to be strong. the the the was a chance of death to our. anger and hate has spilled out into the streets in the coastal city of. palestinian israelis and jewish waiting sleeping in close proximity turning on each other. the among many find incidents on wednesday a palestinian man was tracked from the car by dozens of jewish israelis who continued to beat even until he lost consciousness the video is proconsul mind on israeli television. was 7 and closely to tell of the palestinian business is to run from the wave of violence is

it dozens of cities and regions across israel it's the worst between communities living alongside each other in decades i think we have to go back again to the structural roots and the roots of what is happening today it is wrong to look at what is happening only from through the lens of the past few days again israel is a settler colony that has colonized at. all and your people are colonized all and they have the right to resist they have the right to be free was the tension came to a boiling point is a court prepared to rule the force expulsion of palestinian families from the homes in the occupied east jerusalem shaker chair a neighborhood. israeli journalist yossi melman says he's worried about the challenge to groups inside israel running amok he says they're headed to the abyss

as a result of absence of governance and years of incitement and prime minister benjamin netanyahu has asked both sides to stop the attacks. moments the nothing justifies the lynching of arabs by jews and nothing justifies the lynching of jews by arabs it's unacceptable. in the attempt to quell the violence netanyahu ordered the emergency deployment of border forces but police tactics are under scrutiny after this video was shed on social media of officers storming a family home in the north the city of haifa they could be seen beating him on armed palestinian israeli man who was. the un to the south of tel aviv the city of lot has been put under a state of emergency the 1st in an arab community since 966 it's been one of the worst hit by riots. on tuesday night jewish cardinal silicate was satellites

a mosque was burnt the next day and palestinian mussa hassoun or was shot dead by jewish residents during protests. even though the court has been spared the hearing unchecked there are many and now more worried about how to stop the violence caused by anger that's been simmering for much longer nor about a man the al-jazeera. still had on al-jazeera india's overwhelmed hospital start using drugs for coronavirus patients against the advice of the world health organization. greece forges ahead of its e.u. partners and prepares to open its doors to tourists who are vaccinated on all the negative coronavirus test. hello there we do have
