1:08 pm
a 16 year old and the other was a 20 year old and we've heard calls from palestinians too had to bet near the illegal israeli settlement of. close to you to participate in more protests and we've also seen calls from the palestinian feminist group called out inviting palestinians to participate in a protest here behind us in the square. so it is a tense situation specifically that there is also a discussion in regards to what happened tuesday with the armed exchange of fire that happened between what we believe are palestinian fighters and the israeli army and some voices were saying that while they believe that palestinians have the right to shoot. israeli soldiers they think. this is. shouldn't be done here protests or funerals taking place so this was
1:09 pm
the discussion that we've seen on social media and for many palestinians baby poor a difficult night we've seen also $36.00 palestinians being arrested across the west bank by the israeli army and the day still young we're yet to see what's going to happen with the means and if they're going to be heading to confrontation points or not ok thank you very much abraham joining us from ramallah well as had married to southern israel we can speak with imran khan who joins us live from there we were hearing from our correspondent. there are shortages. medical supplies there shorts just across the gaza strip and basic necessities there humanitarian corridors were open it's not far from where you're standing how have those corridors been opened it's all has. made it into gaza.
1:10 pm
well yesterday the corridors were open just for a few hours where some fuel was able to get in but 24 hours later those crossing into. the carriage crossing actually remains closed know what the israelis are saying is that they closed the crossing down because of rocket fire coming in to the crossing and around the crossing however the israelis have actually kept up on board and we've been hearing it throughout the day today and overnight now what the functions in gaza saying is that they positions near the border crossing well attacked 1st and that's why they attacked the crossing now there are still negotiations going on between the united nations who is running that convoy in but those haven't been fruitful so far but you have to remember this isn't
1:11 pm
a magic wand this is a huge amount of aid going in to gaza that will sort out gaza's desperate needs actually what it is it's been described as a trickle by most humanitarian aid agencies now that have been it's been a relatively quiet night so there is hope from the united nations they might be able to get in today now even though it's choose day into wednesday between the hours of 7 pm and 7 am we only saw about 50 rockets come in from go there but we still have that heavy bombardment by israel by air land and sea now in the last hour where i'm standing right now i've only actually seen one rocket being intercepted above life position a by the so-called. defense system but you still can hear the booms of the dull thud of israeli bombardment going in and it was described my colleague you know sayed in gaza so you still know that there is still bombardment going into gaza but i haven't seen any rockets where we're standing in the last of those just that
1:12 pm
single so she was and what we're being told by the. u.n. is there is hope that they might be able to get in later on in the day. thank you very much. for the leases there from southern israel let's head see occupied east jerusalem and we can speak with. we understand that the is really the prime minister. of foreign journalists talk about a possible cease far trying to work carried some kind of deal what's the latest in terms of that cease fire and what exactly has. been saying to the foreign press. well you've actually meeting with foreign diplomats based in israel and i mean i didn't hear all what you had to say but the main headlines is basically he was explaining this israel's positions
1:13 pm
rather he was saying he was basically blaming most of what's happening on how massive saying that those huge damage to infrastructure to sinkholes on the road actually due to the extent of the underground network in gaza he said that was a complete that it was that's what really was causing all the trouble he also said that israel was trying to was minimizing civilian casualties now bear in mind this is day 9 or 10 of this war more than 220 people died in. more than 20 people. were killed in across the occupied west bank so this is a relative terms when he's saying that he's trying to minimize civilian casualties there now you were asking about this truce there's a lot of reports going around there's a lot of rumors going around that there might be a truce or cease fire and now as for $36.00 all of that is unconfirmed
1:14 pm
what we do know is that the. at least both israel and hamas saying there is no such thing prime minister has been saying over and over again if you needed a few days more that israel needed a few days more that the aim is to weaken hamas as much as possible hamas on the other side is saying well there is no truth unless we get something in return that said there is a lot of international pressure going on from the united states from egypt from france from jordan all these a lot of effort to try to bring an end to diversity's so it is really now a matter of hours to figure out what's really happening and if that ceasefire could happen and where once it is clear we did hold. longer this war goes on the one the longer. benjamin netanyahu makes political gains the military gave the more it
1:15 pm
helps him in his own political survival here in israel i mean in in israel so that is something also that he is putting into context when he is going to decide when to accept a cease fire. for whatever than for us from occupied east jerusalem. well let's bring you know this is the aftermath of a strike that's just happens in gaza city life takes you. sometimes has clearly gone off we're not sure at this time what's has been we have been keeping an eye on one particular apartment block we cannot confirm at this time whether it has been hit or not but clearly the missiles launched in gaza a very populated densely populated. as regular viewers will know. so we'll keep an eye on us we'll bring you more as it

1:18 pm
continues to march and that is the disproportionate impact this military action is having on children just sorceress if you woods about it's the immediate impact that this ongoing violence is having on the children who live in gaza. thank you very much children are at the heart. of this. of the other processes that are happening on gaza children not among the killed and so far we know 63 children were killed in the past 10 days and there are 450 injuries and also the children who survive this loss to live in gaza. from the violence and the airstrikes and the means all 'd over the gaza strip by air land and sea with. navy shells or ought to leave the shells from the borders this is
1:19 pm
a very difficult situation children are suffering from 3 year on in the loss of sleep and and nightmares and they will be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder too and there is also. an impact on their education if we are talking about their strikes in gaza and there were many. shows there targeting a lot of civilian structures and they causing damages including 2 schools our information shows that about 50 schools in gaza have been damaged or partially damaged by the by. the attacks on gaza impacting the education all $42000.00 palestinian children which isn't acceptable under any. condition particular and international humanitarian law that these these gone the conduct military conduct is causing direct impact on children on civilian
1:20 pm
structures including schools and whole soul in hospitals there are littles that were damaged and 11 also primary health centers what numbers directly by the by the attacks they have in seeds and we have feed showing our viewers the aftermath of a lot of these strikes the buildings that have been the ground to host the schools and she say that. when we get see a position you know when it may come days weeks ahead of night when there is a cease fire just describe for us our difficult the task ahead says when it comes to rebuilding things like schools to get kids back into schools if the cease fire is declares just so that people who perhaps watching this from outside never experienced their own children schools being blown up just talk us through the processes that are being put in place in order to try and get
1:21 pm
those kids back into the education system how much time does it take where do you get the school books and things from an our children to this so carry with them not residual fear and trauma is it easy to get them back into buildings full stop let alone school buildings. you're raising a very great point particularly on the last point on the time factor of this as this has happened in the past and it continues to happen and this is just unbelievably exhausting cycle for children to go through all and. the moment there is. continuing shola no international organization is able to move around it ever assistance or do specific assessments for the damages so all of this would have would like we draw up plans and wait until the cease fire happened so that we are able to reach people and they were the assistance and do the assessments of the schools the 1st step is to their systems of the damages and to
1:22 pm
fund raising for the for the rebuilding and the we have in addition all the damage the schools for everything that's related to the physical side of the resuming indication which is going to be expensive exhausting and will take a lot of efforts from from international donors from organizations that are on the ground but there's also the psychological 'd part of it for the children themselves will be suffering from trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder and various disorders and impacts on their mental health get them back to the mindset of being able to go back to school to wake up every morning looking forward to get out of the house and go to school which is not the case this is a long way for us to go through ok and i mean thousands of children hundreds of thousands of children would need us to work with them on psycho social supports and helping them to get back to dual yet like
1:23 pm
a brush over the impacts of fear and anxiety and everything they have gone through this conflict which is very very the very difficult for for all children it isn't a long gun extensive process and we have to end this now that's why we're calling for this to end as soon as possible. also that we don't lose more schools we don't close law children and children and civilians a lot of more than this and many people are making those calls if we kids just further had finally one the ceasefire is process and who knows when that will be and you do rebuild your schools and you do get children back into the schools what kind of life lies ahead for these children after the age of when they leave high school after the age of 151617 years old what lies ahead for the average garzon civilian after
1:24 pm
they get to the end of their teens and enter adult hits what does life holds for someone living in gaza once they stop becoming children a move on to adults it's just life false hope. unfortunately this is hard to answer because this is not the 1st conflict and the general fear is always there that there might be in the next one my daughter was born in 2014 the during the 2014. war in gaza and she's now 6 years old or 6 and a half and she has seen various escalations and this now this because and i don't know when she gets to 15 years old how many of these would she have gone through all this will definitely affect every single child in gaza and would continue to have picked them into the future like the future of what they saw the few of what they felt they would continue to feel for years to come whenever they hear an
1:25 pm
explosion it will bring back memories of what they have gone through and this is what we feel like we speak to children even before this. this this is collision happened we were talking to children and they were still telling us stories from years back when their house was destroyed or when they had to evacuate their house or when the one of their close friends was killed or something like that the victim today think about how this conflict with like it's it's a huge explosions that they're living with every day many families have to evacuate their houses more than once during this conflict as well now we're talking about thousands of children are displaced at the moment there are without a home. as your reporter was saying there are 7000 palestinians now out of their homes when they when this ends they might go back to destroyed homes. their homes and find it destroyed so this will continue to haunt them for the future as well affect them personality their so of confidence that ability to
1:26 pm
learn and interact with others this might have. an impact on on their ability to engage with what's around them and on there and look to the future and hope i just want to say that. it would concede it might affect their understanding of what's happening and what what's life like in palestine and outside palestine and all over the world because in gaza there is no electricity there is like electricity is not on constant there is a huge shortage the issue shortage of water there is damage and substandard like you know infrastructure ok balls for for everything in girls whatsoever for them to feel that conflict and airstrikes on them by a woman is out of their life and this should be an been a normal oh it's just on acceptable as a tragic situation i'm afraid we're out of time. from save the children in gaza thank you still ahead here on our just here in the rescue workers

1:32 pm
joins us now by skype from there thank you for being with us the for those who are familiar with the area. very short distance away but it is a dangerous crossing why do you think people are making this dangerous journey in specially in as large numbers as we've seen over recent days well 1st of all i think more than 2 i recall that for almost 10 years probably did need for control. illegal immigration. played the role of the guard and at the same time the regime with drastically control primarily to the efforts of the american authorities let also open operation that you know between russia and spain now i feel that the convention operations are are simply putting a whole league of these. men treat people with sorrow think try what would have
1:33 pm
banished. a government in an offer or any barricade situation by only a great deal with the enemies of. integrity by by the whole thing the leader of the police are of the so-called and 140 and the. and there back we're going to need one to not buy the criminal spanish justice for war crimes to the companies again so i think that robot has always been critical clear when meath and refused to support the catalonian. who were seeking to set up an independent state in 2007 games when i read things that aren't very clear so i think that that being the critique when it comes to respecting broke up there it's all we have to say to critics that i think that it shouldn't yesterday are open force. against the illegal immigration but
1:34 pm
it's wrong thing you know to think not to be. beneficial government that they need to review their very. their relationship with their with that with morocco and i think that the current special banish government had a creek that strike date. with morocco any favor of energy. we should meet again in its relation. with with algeria and other countries but however you know instead of being you know these deep historic every nation. spain decided to spread your religion ok so it doesn't like to say i'm quite complicated this diplomat's it's also between these 2 countries in terms of the and so people who are trying to waves across that coastline or or swim and we know it at least one person has died in recent days trying to make that very short journey was
1:35 pm
likely to happen so them and is it legal to try and send them back. spaceplane you know what is very clear they say you know who are. prime minister. who would survive if they've occupied cymbalta and maybe to rebuild a border but when committed by angry population which may be the spanish government for making the situation worse think nothing is going to happen but. no limit to what to do to morocco and but it's the crisis is more 'd deeper than that many and i mean by any report think that that that is the number of immigrants had to be created because of that collaboration. with the security with the moroccan security forces but it's a strong relationship it's that it's a you know but this is deeper than this it's not. an immigration crisis but the magic of ok. thank you very much indeed yasmin has not only joining us from

well as cross live died soon sami a b'tselem he's a palestinian journalist living in ga. and joy as summer we understand you're near that terror block the. sibby born suspension by the israeli military what more do we know where this. will actually and now we are. in the age between. and gaza city job areas north of gaza saw this building this building and those towers . which has been severely damaged in 2000 by this strike and the deconstructive has been defied and knocked i mean when they israelis would like to notify their own or all of their inhabitants sometimes they notify 'd according to orders of then small who live here i talked with them they told me that. they gave received

1:42 pm
the case which leads us to talk about. some of the tough occasions whether it's rabies notify people or not because before bombing according to my speech with a lot of people who fled their houses some of them some some owners of the houses received notifications but the others most of the people are just going to talk to them and this is no spicher to those people who were evacuated from the rubble they received no notifications either by. a rocket or by a phone call one of them for example he lost his family under that i believe that if i received any notification of course i would take my kids and scape but there seems nothing that's why he lost his family his his wife and his 3 kids. so it is one of the symbols of bombing some families are given those the cation
