israeli air strikes have been sheltering there israel says it's hitting and destroying tunnels used by the palestinian armed group hamas and its allied factions but in gaza israeli asteroids an artillery shells have destroyed civilian homes clinics factories and roads 200 palestinians have died 59 of them children and the hospitals in gaza so overwhelmed that some with serious injuries are being taken to egypt for treatment and there's a crippling shortage of electricity and water aid agencies say they will run out of critical supplies in the next few days with israel continuing to keep the border crossings closed meanwhile israeli cities are again being hit with rocket attacks from gaza 8 people injured in a start and 9 around the city of beersheba. well we have al jazeera as team of correspondents standing by with the latest developments harry for searches in west

jerusalem need to abraham is in ramallah a fast let's talk to. you live in gaza suffer what we are hearing reports of a residential building in western gaza being targeted in the last hour or so what more can you tell us about the situation in gaza. well it's not in the last few hours that thought a good thing that is that in shell been the buildings started from the 1st day of the latest escalation for over the past 8 days. personally i had this experience by the way this morning go one of my neighbors had been informed evacuees his building. and all of my neighborhood of the family the kids we have all to evacuate and stay away far from our of our homes until the end of this event or action which has not happened yet.

money. and all over the gaza strip it's the case in many places we have been receiving. messages information about many places many buildings that's not it's not only about 2 high buildings like. just about either even 'd normal buildings people are being informed to evacuate. the new dramatic. the say warning laws to to governmental schools that which which not. which has never been expected in the previous wars actually i had the chance to talk to the if you're to minister of education in gaza just to make sure that that was accurate and he told me that yes 2 schools these 2 schools belonged to the minister. of education in gaza these are 2 schools out of 2 out of

20 governmental schools that are prepared to receive it if the g.'s. in case of. greatest collision continue and these schools have been used as shelters also in 2000 there were over 2014 he added that they sent all the coordinates to. the international organizations before the beginning of the war and that the israelis are informed about more 20 schools prepared to be shelters. in case of any escalation. just right behind you we could see that hundreds of families are staying in. schools. evacuated under what told us not yet expecting even more more people. in case the escalation well in case there's collision will increase that they're expecting even

more waves of people will be forced to leave their homes specifically those who live across the border or near the borders with would. still as you said earlier mortars eventually building more as if the shell towers are. have been we could hear the explosions also now from either from. artillery was hitting. or firing the shell chilled or outfit of the shows across the border. air strikes also are still on palestinian factions about fighting groups are still also firing their short and longer range rockets which means that they are still able. to fire on to proceed and continue there are the words despite days that are yet of course that they are doing well and they are attacked. the infrastructure of the coliseum group ok so what

many thanks for the updates on bringing us up to date on the situation in gaza well as stuff what was mentioning there schools in gaza which are being used as shelters for displaced palestinian families could soon be affected earlier we spoke to mafias here is the director general of the u.n. humanitarian aid agency for palestinian refugees and he says this time around israel is hitting very close to their facilities. we now have more than 50 children dead and killed among them 18 children that went to our would run schools that for me is just an unacceptable price that the civilian population is paying and indeed we have seen several buildings taken down in which civilians lived and so yes in most cases they were warned to evacuate those buildings but we now have i believe

at latest count at least 5000 people with algy a home so that's a 2nd price to pay and then the 3rd $1.00 is we are here in one of our installations people are scared they are terrified this is experienced as terror from the skies and people are increasingly leaving their homes we now have more than 41000 people in 50 schools and it would be of grave concern if any of these installations where directly hit so the priority we are into the 3rd day of having people in our installations like this the priority so far has been to make them safe and what that means is number one that there are no unexploded devices lying around number 2 we're still in covert times and we've had to make sure that we have protective equipment and p.p.a. for them and now we have been starting to look since yesterday at what to do in terms of basic needs like water we have half of our installations kids are out for a situation like this with solar energy and water supplies and sanitary facilities

but half are not and we are racing against time to try and meet these basic needs obviously we will have to have the border open at some point to bring in supplies for the moment we are ok but there will be critical supply needs in the next few days i must say during this current war the conversations have been difficult and i understanding i wasn't here but in 2014 we much more early on had humanitarian corridors you know where there was a lull in the fighting and we could move to instill a. bring material and so on and so far in day 7 or 8 of these they have not granted that they've also not granted us to bring in an out people you know so it's it's at the moment it's very difficult conversations a big important part also is that they are striking very close to our installations my main office complex is severely damaged in parts of the because the strikes we

have very close to it and so an understanding we had in the past that they would also be to keep some distance in there striking from our installations is just not being respected sufficiently. let's take you to west jerusalem and hurry force that is live there for the hairiest slightly less chaotic picture behind you from what we can see at least israel has been targeted by hamas today took us through the latest on that front. that's right yes this is the jewish holiday of shove what still today so it is extremely quiet here in west jerusalem and indeed quiet in terms of rocket attacks coming into central israel at least but there have been even just in the last 1015 minutes another big round of attacks on ashdod on ashkelon on the areas of that there's a slightly to the north of gaza around the areas around the gaza strip and east to brush over as well so we have seen a consistent round of rocket fire coming out of gaza throughout the course of the

day although so far as i say less devastating and less. and less concentrated in and certainly not on the areas in central israel that have been targeted in previous days as for what the israeli military is saying it says that it has been carrying out further strikes just again in the last few minutes attacking a rocket unit it says to stop them from launching also that earlier in the day it killed a senior commander of northern gaza for palestinian islamic jihad as far as the cease fire talk that we've been hearing for a few days now is concern still officially there is no indication on the israeli side that there is any readiness yet to engage in that in a full some way the prime minister benjamin netanyahu to u.s. television saying that's how much could not expect just to sit back and have immunity for the rocket fire that israel would carry on with its operations but he

hoped that would be able to come to a conclusion sometime soon as for what has also been going on this eruption of racial violence between palestinian israelis and jewish israelis in recent days that again appears to somewhat but there was very sad news earlier in the day a jewish man who was attacked with stones in his car by past palestinian israeli group in lloyd last week after a palestinian israeli was shot the previous night he has now been declared dead in hospital succumbing to those injuries ok harry thank you for that update hari for that there in west jerusalem. now for the 1st time since 936 palestinians in both the occupied territories and israel will take part in a general strike on cheese day tomorrow the prime minister of the palestinian authority said his fattah party will back the unprecedented show of solidarity.

behalf. must. must be there. must be some. of the. presentation. of objecting. we can talk much need to empower him who joins us from ramallah in the occupied west bank made a good to see you how significant is this call from the fatah party to have this strike. and smiting so the call has been 1st made by palestinians living in israel and then we've seen lots and lots of palestinians here in the occupied west bank share the call and inviting more and

more palestinians to take part in it and then we've seen 1st asking the government to ask if you used to take part in the protest and the protests all across the west bank and in the general strike and the government didn't say that this is what they are asking their employees to do with syndicates and lots of business owners saying that they're going to close and that there are encouraging people to take part in the strike many activists say that they don't feel that the international community is listening to them and they don't believe that the cunt. trees of the world are doing enough to condemn what they call the israeli aggression so that's why they want to take matters into their own hands they say they've been of this current. and the underlying conditions are still there they are still living under israeli occupation whether they are seeing it as resettlements expand or these really stop

their attacks continue or their economy situation still being controlled by the israeli occupation they say that all of these conditions they live on a daily basis and that they want to add to that occupation to the occupation and not just stop this round of escalation now on the official level the palestinian president has been saying in the past few days that the people have said their word and that the leadership is standing by them but we've seen many protesters who say that they are disappointed also at the palestinian authority they say it hasn't been taking a harsh stance when it comes to allowing them to fight is when we've seen in the past the palestinian authority stop palestinian protesters from approaching confrontation points with the israeli army and so there is a bit of sensitivity when it comes to some of these activists activists and protesters but no. official stance is to support the general

strike to support the protesters while at the same time maintaining diplomatic efforts to try and and the escalation we have the u.s. envoy who has been had there on that who has been in television for the past few days visit the palestinian president of ramallah and then according to the official news agency wafa the u.s. the palestinian president has asked the u.s. to attempt to deescalate the situation he said the statement said that he briefed him on delete this israeli aggression as far as the palestinian president is concerned. first in ramallah many thanks. i speak to aria gotz who is an israeli political commentator he joins us live by skype from tel aviv many thanks for speaking to us on al-jazeera yesterday amid these international calls we've heard for

a ceasefire israelis prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the assault on gaza would continue with full force and would take a little longer how much longer do you think this is going to go on you know a situation you know it is not. not easy and you know that's a good countering is your goal having submitted to ridiculous to go the job political advantages of all that state to not tolerate the horrific. attacks israel has endured of as it does 7 'd days old maybe a is showing today that israel is interested is a rule which is a very is it is no simple to go these are always strives for these who strive for peace most recently israeli. bridges to normalize relations what we said was if you are a big country simply us is

a terrorist a. terrorist state supported by islamic republic of iran are you that is not the music is not you cannot cannot you touch and can i interrupt to say there are. we hear this all the time from israeli commentators but at the end of the day the damage that we're seeing on the gaza side compared to the damage missing on the israeli side is just not the same i mean israelis as we understand apparently have the ability to target specific apartments in an apartment block and yet instead they destroy the entire 13 full building why do they do that if if all they're trying to do is go off to hamas. you know who says to solve it by i must have rules that there are 2 of cows but through their own people they have no graded schools universities to do is cultural institution they do not even think about the future or own people and of their choosing israel would like

peace with hamas with. the palestinians but now israel has no partner if some of days ago we received approval to. 30400 rockets yesterday received 70 rockets live because israel has started to. have started to bear horses. against hamas and that's a result of this. israeli actually moves today we have 70 rockets from hamas you understand we have no barker no it's a palestinian authority and. is the situation what israel. can do. ok thank you for your time. is right here in israel commentator speaking to us there from tel aviv. well as

the humanitarian situation in gaza gets more die by the day pressure is growing on the united states to ask why its ally israel will not agree to an immediate cease fire the secretary of state anthony blinken says washington is not standing in the way of diplomacy and has all sides to ensure civilians are protected further we call on all parties to ensure the protection of civilians especially children. to respect international humanitarian law to protect medical facilities protect media organizations and protect you and facilities where civilians are desperately seeking shelter and we are ready to lend support if the parties seek seek a cease fire. so far the u.s. has been blocking efforts at the u.n. security council to even come up with a joint statement on the violence al-jazeera islam countries such as china norway

and to near 0 are pushing for a draft call for deescalation and those negotiations are continuing meanwhile the number of deaths in gaza are rising so the u.n. general assembly is meeting on thursday afternoon and algeria requested a session to discuss the conflict let's go 1st we have kristen salumi was live at the u.n. headquarters in new york we're going to get an update from her in a minute but 1st let's go to our white house correspondent kelly holcomb that's where they have been reports that washington has approved weapons sales to israel a very mixed message coming from the u.s. right now it seems a little on balance talk us through what they're trying to say here. well what they've said very clearly is that they believe israel has a right to defend itself they also believe that there is a right of both palestinians and israelis to live with equal measures of peace and

security the problem is is that well the u.s. president continues to maintain that with his public statements we are continuing to see a very unbalanced support of the israeli military the latest being those weapons sales that you've mentioned but historically the united states has provided billions in military aid to israel and now the latest of the white house saying is something that was in the works was already planned but the timing the notification on may 5th to the u.s. congress of these latest weapon sales to israel is certainly raising some eyebrows because of course it comes just before this ask elation in violence on the part of the israeli military the other thing that this administration has repeatedly said is that it is working towards deescalation that's why it has a top diplomat in the region trying to work with both israeli as well as palestinian officials and also working with its partners and allies namely egypt

jordan and qatar in order to try and speak with hamas which the united states calls a terrorist organization so will not be speaking directly so it says that it is working very hard to try and bring about a deescalation but at the same time the white house not calling for a cease fire and also continuing to supply one side versus the other with an armload of weapons. for us at the white house many. we can cross now to kristen salumi who is at the united nations interesting that we are hearing this. about the meeting coming up on thursday especially after we don't see much as she would by the u.n. security council on sunday. how significant is it that they've called this meeting

. well i think it is a sign that the security council is probably not going to be able to come together and issue of joint statement although the efforts to do so are ongoing they have been for the last week and we know that china and norway in tunisia have submitted another draft statement press statement to other council members for their approval and we've obtained a copy of the statement stop short of calling for an immediate cease fire which seems to be a red line for the u.s. government as we just heard from camberley but it does call for a deescalation of the situation a cessation of violence and respect for international humanitarian law including protection of civilians especially children something similar language to what we heard coming from the secretary of state just a short time ago it goes further though it does call for protection of civilian and

humanitarian facilities immediate humanitarian aid to palestinians and civilians in gaza calls for support efforts to achieve a cease fire from regional states in the middle east quartet and also restraint around the holy sites in east jerusalem noting with serious concern possible even actions and shade in silwan this is what has been put forward by some members of the council again the united states has been very resistant to any form of the statement far and the fact that the general assembly has called a meeting on thursday traditionally that's something they do when the security council is paralyzed but the rest of the world wants to talk about an issue the security council of course the permanent 5 members just one of them can object to a statement being issued or a action being taken in the general assembly everyone has an equal voice and so

it's a different scenario there so we are waiting in the next hour we should know. well whether or not this press statement and that's been proposed by the security council. goes any further or not at this stage we are not seeing a lot of signs and not hearing a lot of optimism on the part of an basters that it is going to go through thank you for that kristen salumi there for us in the united states talking to us from the united nations many thanks. let's talk tomorrow on bashar who is a senior political analyst mark on the u.s. has leverage over israel to stop this escalation why don't they do that what's holding them back. and that's a very good question because there are fewer and fewer reasons if there were any. but the 2 countries have to start a correlation should what they call it

a split relationship even the more special of special relationships and it basically grew out of the 1967 war that's 50 plus years ago when history warn you the war against or that sort of neighbors and became is strategic asset to the united states whether it was in fact effective as a situation as it or not there's really say so most of the establishment in washington say so there's a real strong case for dessert sort of an american interests in the region and beyond on the other hand there's a sense then there's been a very strong case for the so-called israel lobby it's called in washington the lobby when you say the lobby everyone knows this is the israel lobby and there is a lobby is the strongest law be in the united states and israel lobby is not just if you watch a jewish groups and individuals it's all sort of venture you got christians neo conservatives and a whole bunch of others in the security to study so here you have. on the one hand political machinery called an israel lobby and on the other hand you have this

strategic relationship that involves as you were saying earlier on in the manse technology the transfer of technology or so-called research and development and certainly a whole bunch of intelligence showing us also what this is has been the relationship for some 50 plus years and it's very hard when you're used to accustomed to this kind of relationship to break away especially when as president obama put it in his memoirs just several months ago he said this is the only issue in the world in our foreign policy that has do mess that crime if it kitchens in other words if doesn't buy them will lash out against israel he would suffer in washington he would suffer in congress his spot of the world suffered in the midterm elections because there is a lot of these so strong that he will probably regret putting. any serious pressure on assad is this an exaggerated case yes i think it's exaggerated because we've

seen presidents before including obama and joe and george bush sr and others take some distance from israel especially in cases like this when israel is committing war crimes when israel is not when when israeli prime minister is not serving the interest of his country is sending then to his or his office is serving the interests of himself and all its stamp power so i would have loved it i think it's about time if the american president will tell you not any oh in an open press conference look i missed that until you know israeli security yes is security but this israeli occupation is subtle exists it's subtle ijaz it's evil n. is not good for the either the united states israel and certainly not good for palestinian and regional security many thanks for that marwan bashar out of there a senior political analyst speaking to us that dalla.
