support for a cease fire. deal with. the emotional and physical scars for so many children gaza as their world crumbles around them. also ahead a cyclon forces hundreds of thousands from their homes in western india and makes the fight against coronavirus even tougher. daybreak has brought more israeli air strikes on gaza. this was the gaza skyline in the past hour or so it's now just after 7 in the morning there. and this was a scene late on monday night there been more than 30 israeli airstrikes during the night and into tuesday morning the conflict between israel and hamas is into a 2nd week with the death toll past 200 mostly palestinians in gaza there's no end

in sight for the enclaves 2000000 residents with diplomatic efforts to reach a cease fire all but stuart. only on monday israel destroyed a building that housed gaza's religious affairs ministry and killed a senior commander of islamic jihad 15 kilometers of hamas' tunnel network were also targeted and there was severe damage to catalyze red crescent office in central gaza 512 palestinians have been killed in the conflict and more than 1400 people are injured to hospitals in gaza are overwhelmed and running low on critical supplies some people are being sent across the border into egypt for treatment there are severe shortages of electricity and water. and palestinian armed groups of 5 more rockets from gaza into southern israel injuring 17 people residential towers were struck in the cities of ashdod and sending people running to nearby

bomb shelters more than 3000 rockets have been fired towards israel many were intercepted by israel's air defense system and hundreds of foreign inside gaza at least 10 israelis have been killed since the conflict began where u.s. president joe biden has expressed support for a cease fire during his latest call with israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu biden is under growing pressure from members of his own party who accuse him of ignoring the plight of palestinian civilians john hendren reports from washington d.c. . after continued israeli strikes on gaza and persistent pressure from his fellow democrats president biden is now calling for a cease fire in a phone call with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu the white house says in his statement the president expressed his support for a cease fire democratic congresswoman ileana omar one of the most persistent critics of the president from within his own party tweeted finally our delay in

supporting a cease fire has caused the slaughter of children and destruction of lives now biden has to push for an end to the occupation the white house press secretary has been insisting the biden administration is engaged in why it diplomacy to end the conflict and reduce palestinian and israeli casualties the president we're making all of our decisions through is how can we help bring an end to the violence and bring an end to deescalate the situation on the ground in march president biden's own secretary of state promised to make human rights the foundation of american foreign policy and the by paris of ministration will stand against human rights abuses wherever they occur regardless of whether the perpetrators are adversaries or partners. critics argue the rights of palestinians who make up the overwhelming number of civilian deaths and injuries in the current conflict are being ignored and biden has failed to roll back most of his predecessors pro israel policy that he once called destructive the us embassy remains in jerusalem biden has not

overturned president trump's recognition of israel's sovereignty over the occupied golan heights biden's foreign policy has also avoided condemning forced expulsions of palestinians from their homes so far it is a it's a dramatic failure the main reason for that is that the administration was taken by surprise they did not expect this to happen. it's partly a self-inflicted wound biden maintains both israelis and palestinians. are entitled to safety and security in equal measure that's why some members of congress are questioning reports of a recent one sided arms deal $735000000.00 in new weapons to israel some lawmakers argue the sale should be halted until israel stops its military campaign biden has consistently defended israel's right to defend itself and he has repeatedly criticized the hamas rockets raining down on israeli soil at one point

saying the israeli assault was not disproportionate but there have been days of air attacks since then. now israelis and palestinians alike wait to see if the american president's call for a cease fire will actually make a difference john hendren al-jazeera washington want to keep the elder israeli political analyst he says the israeli public overwhelmingly support the minute transactions there is a call that i just saw a news websites that indicates that only 9 percent of the israelis 'd. want to stop this operation or war 70 percent will see the government until they destroy hamas this is the opposite. 21 percent say that they want it to continue until hamas will beg us for ceasefire so when it comes to

public so all the government has got free right the only as good full support if you listen to israeli commentators on the mainstream media on national channels the message is we have now it is different must be different than it was in 20142012 now it's about television it's not just the saudis and we can't afford it to happen again so this must be the last operation but protests against israel's action are gathering momentum around the world hundreds marched in argentina's capital towards the israeli embassy but police prevented them from reaching the building and when i was ira's last week argentina's foreign ministry denounced recalled israel's disproportionate use of force and thousands of yemen is a been showing their support for palestinians there demanding israel stop its

attacks on gaza and also calling for a boycott of israeli and american goods who the rebels who are allied with hamas called the demonstration protesters also burned israeli flags were chanting against the u.s. and israel. after we have been asked many have called me and signing up and the palestinian issue is a humanitarian political and essential issue for arab and islamic nations and therefore it is why it must be supported by all peoples in all countries of the world so our message is to stand and support the palestinian cause and its resistance in gaza. when at least 61 palestinian children have been killed since this conflict began many others have been injured or lost parents and other relatives katella has had a young reports on the growing emotional and physical toll for young people in the car the 1st 7 hours 6 year old suzy was trapped under piles of rubble was her home was hit by an israeli air strike in gaza her mother and 4 siblings died.

and hospital she reunites with her father a budget they hold hands facing a new life without their family that is that if. i was filled with all the anger of the universe but when i heard that one of my daughters was alive i said thank god because this girl might capture some even a little of my other daughter smile. there's not much room for innocence in gaza play time with their new toys is cut short for the sisters when the sounds of fighting come too close for comfort heavy heavy heavy heavy heart attack that their father achmad muncy made youtube videos that were widely shared on social media to distract his kids from the violence the days after this recording he died in an airstrike oh this boy lost his home. he holds back tears trying to recover some of his belongings. that i made of the

wreckage a moment of joy for these children who managed to save their pet fish but experts fear these fleeting moments of happiness may soon be replaced by a long term trauma my older girl she's 70 years old she looked at me and said does god really feel what we are feeling now and of course i answered the head but i started thinking what is the mental state and the wind motion instead that she's going through at this point to be asking such. just such an existential question the depths of loss can be overwhelming especially for children. you know would still. i guess. i'm not really that much i get i do anything i feel i don't know what to feel just. as bomb strike nearby and this girl prays her repeated recitation is an attempt to drown out the

sound of explosions. doctors say suzy will recover from her physical injuries but it's the invisible emotional scars that may require long term attention katia live to civilian al-jazeera well marcia care is the israel and palestine director at human rights watch she explained that rights abuses have been documented for far longer than just this conflict. any legitimate military purpose that would justify targeting highrise residential buildings demolishing the homes of hundreds of palestinians human rights watch has documented human rights abuses in israel palestine for 3 decades including on lawful airstrikes by israel israeli authorities deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure disproportionate strikes and certainly these would appear to fit within that larger pattern i think it's worth also noting that the israeli government has produced no evidence to suggest that some of these targets for example you know the one targeting the offices of

al-jazeera and associated press actually contains a legitimate military target i think there is very concerning reports we're seeing tens of thousands of palestinians displaced from their homes schools should absolutely be productive protected there is a track record in israel already in recent days has damaged schools has damaged medical facilities i think that's deeply deeply problematic and i think speaks to a larger disregard utter disregard for palestinian life by the israeli government kids women dozens who have lost their lives you know strikes that target deliberately civilian infrastructure or that are disproportionate are war crimes at the same time. and other palestinian armed groups have fired rockets indiscriminately at israeli population centers which are also war crimes so there's certainly been or crimes committed in the context of the last week or 10 days but they come in the context of the larger crime against humanity of apartheid that the

israeli authorities are imposing on millions of palestinians. also to come here al-jazeera including after being locked down and locked up for months in britain is a fun millau to get back inside pubs and restaurants. and find out why south africa's disgraced former president jacob zuma was back in court or not stay with us. for the perfect journey. sponsored point qatar airways hello let's start in india where the main where the story is we've got that cycling moving its way into north western india you can see the extent of that storm and this was the scene earlier in mumbai the destruction caused by this extremely strong winds and torrential rains and that set to continue as it makes its way across the state and

a source of great worry for the government you know the the high court made a scathing observation of the situation in rural india saying that the medical infrastructure was in adequate barely one bed for every 10000 people and an infrastructure that was unable to cope even during normal times forget the fact that we are in a pandemic problem a tell there in new delhi thank you now the head of the world health organization has described the disparity between vaccine rollouts in wealthier countries and poorer nations as a form of apartheid that the most of the norm gave us us says the gap is huge he's called the manufacturers to make jobs available to the global banks insurance scheme more quickly. the world is in but. as you know high income countries are found for 15 per cent of the world lation but for the 5 percent of the wounds but since. low and lower middle income countries
