1:04 pm
whether of children or normal civilians innocent civilians that are around the targeting and these civilians get to pay also the price i mean in just a matter of minutes i myself could have died along with my drug of the people in the car with me it was along that targeting and it would have just been another justification that it's another target for them and as simple as that i mean where is the international community from these crimes how many civilians innocent civilians have to pay the price for this madness that is going on through last night we have been to the gaza strip has been shaking by very violent raids and shellings artillery shelling the entire night i mean every night it's just more worse and more violent than the night before the marchers rise and the numbers
1:05 pm
change in minutes i mean the last of what's at the ministry of health had stated was 198 just while i was standing from that car from that car 3 people came out in pieces and one was wounded and then just a couple of minutes later another person came out from the targeting pro home so like we have 4 more martyrs at that to that to that death toll every single minute there is a new march or there are new people who are wounded ok you have who were obviously here in doha very relieved that you that you are still with those. i understand you must be going through quite a bit of a shock so i appreciate your staying on here to talk to us right now you. just if you could update our viewers. just of the situation that is happening in the out schieffer hospital behind you certainly were where we were talking before we went live with this show we saw people getting carried out on makeshift stretchers from

the holes with soldiers just set the scene for rows guns guns as large as whole space so for the conditions like in the air because we're at a stage you know we're we're purrs running low and i water is running low that impacts in the hospital where you are. this is gaza's largest hospital it's a complex it has lots of departments all departments including administration offices including receptions they're all filled with beds who have either pay patients who are either wounded or or in difficult conditions we already have the crisis of the corona going on and the resources the medical sector in gaza strip is already very fragile juta of going to see 15 years it's each until now at the very very accurate medical requirements and resources that they have the
1:07 pm
corydoras to have beds since like 3 days ago beds have been added also in the corydoras some some in some of the scenes that mattresses have been put on the floor where they amount to to take more and more peace and in i mean with that with such with such intensity in the in the amount of people who come to the hospital every now and then either in need if a cold conditions are wounded heavily wounded are immediate when did. i think that the health sector is not going to hold more of them that there is a great crisis in the electricity i mean the the entire gaza strip now. is getting it from an hour to 3 hours at best conditions of electricity the generators have the air very huge lack of fuel load now so they have also today there was
1:08 pm
a statement for. the generators unity hearing gaza strip saying that they will a really short amount of hours that they would be providing electricity through generators because of the lack of fuel well ok so now we have a crisis of electricity because of the great damaging that has happened and all the power lines and that has goes great. 6 outages in power and and now we have lack of fuel so we have lack of also electricity from generators that the situation just keeps on getting compounded and compounded by crisis i mean we're like where is the international community acting from all that is going on with because this trip it tried getting hundreds has reached medical centers and hospitals yesterday there was a land that was just right here very very close to a ship the hospital it was and the house was actually warned yesterday i should
1:09 pm
family house which is just around the complex it has been targeted yesterday not the house but the land next to it so this targeting has closed also a great a great traumatizing to the people in the hospital i mean most of most media as broadcasting from the ship because assuming this is the safest place that we can . broadcast from the infrastructure is severely damaged around the hospitals in the entire gaza strip not just the shifa hospital in gaza city but the entire gaza strip the roads have been severely damaged and destructed which limits eliminates the amounts and the. and that kept ability of. civil defense and emergency crews to reach to the people who have been targeted the homes that people getting targeted every now and then so there is as i was saying that the situation is just getting compounded by crisis every now and then it's just getting
1:10 pm

1:12 pm
but most of people here are from both had known it when it is a town at the tip of the north end of gaza. at least. 4 or 500 till now here in this center but i have seen while we are moving i have seen some people some families are still arriving so it is not the of maybe it would be very crowded people here told me that they are suffering shortage of water food and other services even though. but so did they cannot clean it and they are arrogant and calling for an inhuman held for them why they have come here it is not very good and t. the they are safe but it is safer than the place there where safer than their houses. but it is not 100 percent it is safe because before that i mean.
1:13 pm

1:14 pm
rehabilitation sensory appreciate it sami thank you very much and as you've heard from both of our correspondents their. description the very real risk our reporters are taking bringing you these stories from inside gaza well the prime minister of the palestinian authority spoke a short while ago in ramallah his fatah party called for a general strike across the occupied west bank on tuesday members of the international community for condemning the killings in gaza but he said more must be done. behind. must. be. illegitimate again there's. very little. be there again as well. as must summon up the bus of the. presentation and the science.
1:15 pm
of objecting. will that night she ramallah in the occupied west bank where we can join neither. needs or we've been hearing there from the palestinian authority welcoming the khans a nation of the attacks on gaza but still this there's more that needs to be done what are people where you are what are they calling for. let me 1st tell you that we're getting reports from palestinians the u.s. envoy had the ahmed who has landed in tel aviv a few days ago is in fact meeting with palestinian officials here in ramallah and that he will be meeting with the palestinian president mahmoud abbas we will look to confirm the news but these are the sources that we got from. there is to my
1:16 pm
official sources let's say now back to the palestinian authority the prime minister has been saying that he's urging countries of the world to recall that ambassadors in israel he said that the u.n. united nations general assembly should convene and look at imposing sanctions against israel he says that this is one of the ways that it could help the palestinians and could get israel to stop what he called its assault now language has proven to be very problematic when it comes to the palestinian israeli issue and many have been complaining all of the media coverage and language is often or sometimes one reason why the united nations security council statements aren't issued we've had a meeting by the security council on sunday that failed to release a statement and i'm going to be talking more about this with my guests here mr jealous that he is
1:17 pm
a palestinian brighter from jerusalem how did you view the media coverage this time . the coverage has been extensive noticed in jerusalem since the earliest days of protesting at the mosque. kept growing and growing the media coverage was focusing a lot on different aspects of palestinian suffering under israeli occupation and israeli rule mainly focused started sorting out. the cleansing was the line but everyone followed. and seeing the scenes that are and what's happening in jerusalem the media moved with the bombing at the same time for once there was coverage of israel's aggression continuous aggression against palestinians against palestinians in gaza and the west bank in 48 and in jerusalem specific specifically we were not talking about rockets in response to aggression or just rockets specifically on
1:18 pm
their own we were talking about a lot of aspects and causes of this israeli aggression towards our people and every part of palestine we're talking about people rising up against apartheid we're talking about people rising up against ethnic cleansing against the blockade against occupation different aspects this coverage now is more extensive than before and we've seen many palestinians also take to social media it's become like some sort of a new battleground for palestinians how do you view that in spreading the case for there do you think it's helping palestinians definitely it's helping and in my perspective social media we always talk about social media and its role in such an event but in my view something that's different this time is a new platform a different platform to talk to talk to be credited a lot over the past few months as a platform that managed to. establish a new vision and you are you to many palestinians. small acts of aggression by the
1:19 pm
israeli state starting in jerusalem and. in and everyone is taking therefore not filming and forcing on to talk and that has no limits people are using the trending futures of those platforms to deliver their messages to a wider audience the regional and global audience. thank you and we are expecting a big day tomorrow we are expecting palestinians to be protesting in the occupied west bank in jerusalem as well as palestinians living in israel what do you think. it's different this time indeed in my perspective this is unprecedented what's happening now we've not seen it before in our lifetimes i'm 26 years old but i think i'm sure a 40 year old person here would see the same person with this it would see the same what's happening to morrow is a general strike a call for a general strike across the entirety of the same from the river to the sea people in 40 per cent will be having a strike on tuesday on sept 1st and then the west bank youth groups and civil
1:20 pm
society groups are calling for a general strike and the entirety of the west bank. and. the together for once we can see the person people. getting over this fragmentation that is imposed upon us going over the checkpoints the walls the fences they put to separate us and for once we're all united behind one straight across the entirety of palestinian territory thank you so much mr jealous haltered he is a palestinian writer based in east jerusalem and we are expecting a big strike on tuesday and we're seeing fatah here in the occupied west bank asking more and more palestinians to take part in it specifically that many leaders have been telling us that they want to follow what the streets request and we've heard also from the palestinian president mahmoud abbas who is saying that the people have said their word and we are. ok neither even him there joining us live
1:21 pm
from ramallah nida thank you very much. let's take you know it's the minds of. the force that joins us from there harry can you just give us a sense of what's happening inside israel right. well let's let's talk a little bit about. them occupied east jerusalem at the moment in the last day or so there have been a lot of arrests quite close to assume the neighborhood of. the israeli security forces and police. really responds to the instructions from management and you know to crack down on the kind of violence that we've been seeing within israel and here in occupied east jerusalem in recent days has been a wave of mainly arrests of palestinians we've also seen inside. which has been the sort of focal point and the fueling factor in so much of the protests that we've seen from the beginning of ramadan on words. the most sort of
1:22 pm
serious single violent event coming back to that location and i should warn you that the images at the very top of our reports are distressing. in shakespeare after weeks of sight of tension and protest a new level of violence. 6 members of the israeli security forces injured the driver shot dead in his seat seconds later witnesses told us the man a palestinian from occupied east jerusalem shouted. as he approached on edge israeli forces driving our team and others from the immediate area. for palestinian families further down the street a facing imminent forced expulsion from their homes their fate driving many of the protests that preceded the descent into the air strikes rocket fire and comical violence of the last week shakes your eye was the focus of so much of the simmering tension that we saw here throughout the month of ramadan tension that sparked
1:23 pm
violence that has spread far beyond here violence it is continuing a short drive from chester are an israeli settler which film taking aim at palestinians 2 were later reported shot and injured these were the arrests that followed in a settler home israel's prime minister calling the explosion of racial violence the 2nd front in this crisis the other front has so far not relented more heavy rocket barrages out of gaza in our school on a synagogue was struck israeli attacks on gaza are also unrelenting the toll in people killed in display. east in homes destroyed still mounting israel's security cabinet reportedly not discussing a rumored move toward cease fire negotiations the prime minister taking his argument on to u.s. television were trying to degrade hamas as terrorist abilities and to degrade their will to do this again so it will take some time i hope it won't take long but it's not immediate but there's also a report that egypt offered
1:24 pm
a truce hamas said yes you said now why. well that's not what i know and frankly hamas thought that it could just fire in a rocket and then sit back and enjoy a community that's forced by nightfall it shakes your are the checkpoint had been reinforced with heavy blocks even if a cease fire is coming between israel and hamas the violence here in the occupied west bank and in israel for now has a momentum of its own. and as far as the situation in israel is concerned every few minutes we still get these alerts on our phones alerting various communities around the country to further barrass of rockets coming out of gaza also we're seeing as you heard so compellingly from our colleagues inside gaza just a little earlier the continuation of israeli air strikes into gaza one most recent report is that a senior islamic jihad commander according to the israeli army has been killed in
1:25 pm
one of those airstrikes during the course of the day so far also reports of increased efforts by the by did ministration now to try to bring this to an end at least behind the scenes however for now things do continue as they have been for a week now ok have a force that they're bringing is the very latest from occupied east jerusalem harry thank you very much indeed well sunday was the deadliest day of israeli airstrikes since the campaign began it saw a sharp rise in the numbers palestinians killed rescue teams are working around the cork to help survivors as laura birdman the reports. calling for survivors in a room flattened by rocket fire. and the sign of life a man caught with back in july that little and caught up in this residential building was struck by israeli rockets in garden city a mission to careers alive our team talk to him and we'll get him out in
1:26 pm
a minute we hope that his sisters zainab is alive as well. and we can get her out to others didn't survive. it's delicate work for rescue teams. pulling survivors out with their hands ensuring there are no people life before they inch forward with an excavator. the number of people under the rubble is still unknown as we heard from the families and the neighbors it's a large number. from a number of people buried under the rubble it's clear they didn't have enough warning to flee before the residential buildings were destroyed. israeli rockets and artillery fire in the gaza strip have been the heaviest since the bombardment began a week ago $21.00 members of the same family were killed in one explosion what happened be targeted for hours continuous mom boardman launched on one specific neighborhood as it happened and i witnessed 3 whole neighborhoods where bombs were
1:27 pm
continuous hours and they did not only bomb both residential buildings and people innocent civilians they targeted the roads to this neighborhood a teacher and mother tell just sara that her children are too scared to close their eyes at night when the bombing is at its heaviest. they're not coping absolutely they are terrified all the time they're just listening carefully if it's going to be any warning. they just afraid to close their eyes that the night they don't want to sleep i struggle every single night to put them in their beds they don't want to go to sleep because they know once they close their eyes something bad was. during the bombing many families being forced to retrieve the bodies of their loved ones from the snake. handlers and now the father devastated by the loss of this child who never got a chance to grow up. nor
1:28 pm
a person ali al jazeera. well research either here is editor of cancer writes back short check actually short stories for young legends in cancer and he told us what it's life is like on japan partment. it's been held here. every day we care every night we care that is the worst part of a life and then. run by bombarding more by destroying more by by killing more love life was a sense circle of hell that. didn't kill because it's. all been hell on the head of me and the kids would be would wake up in the middle of the night wreaking and screaming and shaking and crying. because of hundreds and hundreds of israeli missiles that fall on the heads of of palestinian it's. a total response and by israel and backed by
1:29 pm
america and europe we are rushing a lot i'm not sure if this has been ever reported but on the very 1st israeli aggression on palestinians this i get it 1st and foremost if i get a palestinian farmer in different areas that those foreigners can now here go into the field to pick their foot and send it to them on the chops of the palestinians so we have very little sitting roads and vegetables and it's also very dangerous for us to venture out trying to ration as much as possible but it's not about one about the food it's again about the terror. causing of the death and the corruption that is making there unprecedented and making the unforgivable even in many ways. let's speak out to say yes for our car from gaza that is an assistant professor turns
1:30 pm
a college dublin and academic member for the center for palestinian studies of law and so us he joins us now from dublin as kids have you with us on the news hour let's talk about ways to end this round of violence in terms of support. where is the way forward here i think all of egypt it's very important egypt has a cue ball to play in mediation they have done it before and they succeeded in 200820122014 there as well but let's let's also remember the big gyptian mediation can be successful. in terms of bringing in a way forward and we be asian without the support of the u.s. and that's because. number one israel trusts the u.s. engagement with egypt and number 2 also. egypt.
1:31 pm
needs the you us to create legitimacy and support for any mediation agreement that they have been for national level and especially especially at the european level and the u.n. security council level and you want to well in general oh absolutely why do you think egypt is so critical i mean it goes without saying that the that the u.s. needs to be on board is given such a crucial role the u.s. place in terms of its support for israel but why do you think egypt is such a key player in this. egypt is a key player because it's one of the leading regional players in the region so they have the support of key states in the middle east and number 2 also they have a stronger relationship with the leadership of hamas. they continue to communicate with hamas and they continue to meet with hamas so this relationship
1:32 pm
with hamas is very important as a key actor in this conflict and thirdly egypt as well has the support of israel and the international community to work on mediation so what is egypt been tearing up and so my then because we keep hearing lots of talk about the needs to be a diplomatic solution attempt to push is there a push under way egypt is playing any kind of role right now to try and dial back some of this violence that we're seeing playing out on the screen as i'm talking to you right now i. yeah i mean there are mediation efforts that are led by egypt and. also they're supported by the international community at the u.s. and this is involved on behalf of israel to some degree as well there is a invoice in israel so mediation efforts are ongoing however you
1:33 pm
need the key part is. in this conflict to agree to mediation in order for this diplomacy and for this mediation to succeed is what i mean by the key parties i mean by that israel and hamas now the 2 sides. are still and and in direct conflict and confrontation the level of power is not equal of course but however there are still engaged in this conflict now engaging in mediation with require israelis to agree. to a cease fire and for israel to agree to that they have to see that they have achieved what they wanted to do in gaza they want to also. make sure from a policy point of view as they understand that that's a must come to challenge these ready to power again and terribly they want to make sure there is the level of collective punishment. that this collective
1:34 pm
punishment has been achieved in gaza and gaza cannot resist israeli power again now if you look at the hamas saw it on the others by they want to make sure that. there's probably an effect set so that military campaign is successful they also want to make sure that they have the support of the palestinians and the people of the region in terms of connecting the palestinian issue with jerusalem and they want to make sure that to reset him and get out of their connected together so how much has the strategic interests and israel as well as egypt interests and. we will not see mediation succeeding unless bay 2 sides see that they can find a way forward in terms of their common terms of their interests. and the way forward. ok yes sir. joining us from dublin great to get your thoughts and your analysis thank you very much indeed for television viewers just bring you live
1:35 pm
pictures now from gaza your closest your ng that in severe with yes yes for our. big explosion of small cultures here understands that that explosion over gaza that we saw was the iron dome system reacts saying and taking out a rocket that has been fired from within gaza that's our understanding right now i bet you're looking now at the gaza skyline we're going to keep an eye on those pictures for you bring your the ferry latest as soon as it comes it's still ahead here on al-jazeera laughing parties in chile when i made a majority in a vote to be vice the dictatorship era constitution and in sports an unlikely goalscoring hero for liverpool. wish premier league.
1:36 pm
well everything green should be growing europe was not overrated recently and is more to come everything is coming to a vast amount of cloud you can put low pressure sensors all over the place just emphasizes what is the word that has depressed temperatures some degree around the edges wall i mean moscow is a 27 athens a 32 and that's true through italy impacts what spain and portugal but if you're in the middle chances are you'll see some sunshine but will likely cloud and. rain sometimes heavy rain for example this going through both snow has a governor and beyond and particularly i think in better roofs and ukraine during both tuesday and wednesday but let's take an example up to innsbruck in western australia in the tirol will see showers the next 3 days the obvious 21 it's below but it does come up nearer to average by the time we get to the weekend so there
1:37 pm

circumstances children learn to play dangerous games they say so the times then destroy the house and take worn down by frustration and broken promises young men living under the constant threat of imprisonment took me to the jeep and blindfolded me the time for them to regain control of their lives is when the boys returned prison life in hiding out. on al-jazeera. the op. this is al jazeera a quick reminder of our top stories for you this hour is really israel is

1:40 pm
phone to discuss the urgent need to stop the killing of civilians are the one who has been a vocal supporter of palestinian resistance against the israeli occupation live now to wrestle sardar who joins us from istanbul resort turkey has been lobbying hard on behalf of the palestinians what more can you tell us. well from the 1st day of the crisis on present. and turkish foreign minister i have been very much active in the diplomatic a force president has called more than 25 of the heads of the states and the governments so today's call between president. francis also is a continuation of this diplomatic force during the call between one and poor. told the pope that the violence that is going on in palestine is not only.
1:41 pm
against muslims but also the christians who are living in palestine is also subjected to the israeli israeli whalers and also as head of the catholic church globally his stance toward the israeli palestinian conflict is going to be quite important and also on on wednesday the united nations united nations general assembly is spirited to have a meeting of the turkish foreign minister. is going to attend to the meeting and also to emphasize the city of concrete steps from the international community so far turkey has built its criticism too with 2 main points one of them is that the actions need to go beyond the condemnation because the condemnations also a kind of differ a different kind of silence and also the narrative of both sides is not going to work at all because and on proportional and asked him out rick war is going on in
1:42 pm
in palestine. and wrestle is any of this likely to work or have any kind of significant impact. well i think anchor is well aware of the fact that the only deterring country only israel is the united states and as long as the united states we toss the resume lucian's or did wrong statements in the united nations security council this diplomatic efforts are not going to stop the violence however strategy i think is to increase the awareness global awareness regarding the. conflict in palestine and the palestinians the violence that the palestinians are being subjected to but. interesting is coming up with humane deterrent merican isn't the suggestion of the target americanism that is necessary and insist on it one of them is to establish an international protection
1:43 pm
force to be sent to the region to protect the palestinian civilians i mean a military protection unit and also the 2nd one is that to process the judicial process to be initiated in the international community international criminal court and that the international community criminal court is going to hold each of the member or each of the individual israeli individuals who have been involved in this against the palestinians to be held accountable named by name only by these 2 tracks do still track in the international criminal court and also a joint military force protection force to be sent to the region to protect the palestinians so only by this to deter an american is a belief that is rarely a terrorist can be stopped ok reza sayah. joining us from istanbul wrestle thank
