10:04 pm
that they have been piloting the fringe of the fire of the policy and fighting group is listed on the previous one and the other hand during the day. lucas, now we could see fire from from god's afterwards israel. they look the high of the record highs of the pictures that the long range of rocket could be put on and beyond. so back to 2 guys today, the really is carried out attacks using fighting j. artillery and even the chief forces that are in the navy participated in board boarding, the coastline of gaza in the north and northern side of gutter strip, also dive tillery intensified. it's been barbed bergman, or shilling?
10:05 pm
the border area in guys also, today we just learned the number of people leaving vacuum waiting their homes. in hitting or staying in united nations cooled increased up to more 50000 people staying in a very difficult the human condition left without anything except some food ducks. some organizations are giving introducing to them a diminished revolt. also say that the number of people injured people is increasing. there are 200 more than 257 people killed, including cases of children and women, and that more than 1500 people are also injured. some of them are being transferred to egypt because the ministry pulsate their hospital or the health system is
10:06 pm
collapsing because of living. 15 years of age and one year of dealing with covet 19 i think 24 wars now and 11 years or more. so this increased the difficulties of the ministry of the health, the health system in general. i think that they have also to stop testing the covet 19 because of the lab, the only docs have been handling such sure has completely damaged and no more covered in 1910 people also thousands of people gathering in one place and schools and relative on so on, also they have broken or violated all the protocol, the production and prevention protocol of cooper. 19. on the other hand, also the municipalities and the humanitarian organizations, the power company that lot of companies,
10:07 pm
they have been sending reports of lots of damages. the infrastructure of water sewage internet on a network. i think that also the most efficient one, which is the would there have been the municipality said to have good receiving hundreds of calls of call phone calls from people seeking or asking for water supplied the municipality to say they cannot deal with the huge destruction infrastructure and the luck that happened after 10 days of, of bombardment from south to north. and the field also we last who'd be really tired was last night on that was cutting out in the south of gaza strip. meant specifically in unit on and drop off the most serious
10:08 pm
thing here in gaza that people were, were chasing and listening to the really media. and they have here they are about to reach a fire old to reach a column. and they have been calling off the check. is that true? if there will be real fees, fire in the coming out of come over, then they also believe or expect there will be intensive attacks before reaching the fire in case it will happen to millions of tina the guys are now are staying home imposing kid fuel because there are no other choices, but they stay home. no shelter in garza, no electricity over the most are in most of the places all over the gaza strip. thank you very much. indeed. iran con is in southern israel, and when a number of rockets been fired into israel, what's happening? where you well,
10:09 pm
in the last 90 seconds the sirens went off and we saw one rocket which flew above all like position where we all right now. it was intercepted by the defense system . that's a very sophisticated defense system that these railways have. now according to the israeli army, since the morning when they measure from about 7 am to about 2 hours ago, some 200 rockets were fired from the strip into sudden israel. a few of those actually hit their targets in said rod hitting 3 houses and one israeli was injured in one of those attacks plus rockets have landed in are stored and ask alone 2 towns in southern israel, but 90 percent of those rockets, according to the israeli army have actually been intercepted by this rocket defend system, the iron dome. however, what this means is that it's still very difficult and we've been talking about this
10:10 pm
now. the nearly 24. i fact for over 24 hours about this aid convoy is trying to get in to garza. now. these really have been absolutely clear in their thinking. they've said that they're not letting in any age because there was an attack on the barrier crossing. i morticia landed it injuring and israeli soldier on tuesday after that the barrier was shut. the united nations have been negotiating throughout the last 2 days trying to get a convoy. and even if the a convoy gets into gaza is still just a tiny drop of what aid is actually needed, they're both. they can even get that in all talks of ceasefire. old hawks of any sensation of hostilities is still up in the air and we are waiting for the israelis to confirm with the international community whether there is a sci fi we are hearing the high level diplomatic diplomatic meetings that will be
10:11 pm
held in the next for hours and hopefully what will happen is there may, will be a 5, but hopefully what will learn as journalists will learn what the, the actual terms of this sci fi might be if one actually comes. but right now, no 8 is going into gaza. the barrier remained shut and we are still seeing far, and coming from garza and that steady bombardment into garza, by israel. iran. com. thank you very much. indeed. what addition to the rockets coming out of garza, several rockets have been fired from southern lebanon towards israel to rockets was really landed in curious time north of the city of haifa. these really military says it intercepted another to nobody has claimed responsibility for the rockets. israel has fought artillery in response as we reported earlier, us president joe biden spoke to these ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu on wednesday, saying expected a significant de escalation on the path to
10:12 pm
a sci fi button is on the intense pressure from within his own party to intervene more or less that's close to the white house correspondent. kimberly how it can be festal. tell us about the phone call between barton admission. yeah. is that any sign that the use president is shifting his position? well, we certainly have seen a very incremental shift in the president's position earlier in the week. you'll recall that he was essentially saying that he supported a cease fire. now he's saying that he expects significant de escalation on the path to a cease fire. but here's the problem. with both of those statements, the president has not outlined in any way how this could happen, what, how he expects or what the benchmark would be. and as a result, what we've seen is shortly after that phone call between the us president and the israeli prime minister, where they discuss the violence in gaza that it largely was rejected by the israeli prime minister. and so the problem is, is for the us president,
10:13 pm
if he continues to be under criticism of pressure from within his own democratic party, they're very confusing statements coming out of the white house. not only is they on the one hand, this white house saying with israel has a right to defend itself, but he's also not coming out and doing what many as party are asking for. and that is to call for an immediate cease fire. he has not been clear and bolden that language and as a result, because of the ambiguity, it has been largely ignored by these really military. and you mentioned that the build up a pressure from within his own party. how, how is the dealing without well, the, the pressure is mounting for this precedent because there are a number of very vocal women in the progressive wing of the democratic party. yolanda omar is one from the u. s. to minnesota. the build of oppression from within his own party. how are you dealing with that? well the, the pressure is mounting for this president because there are
10:14 pm
a number of very vocal women in the progressive wing of the democratic party. omar is one from the us to minnesota alexandria, kathy cortez another ever she the to leave. who is of house to descent, has family living in the west bank and who actually had worked with the us president in the us state of michigan that she represents. but 24 hours ago it is really what they've been saying is very loud and very vocal and very uncomfortable for this precedent. essentially saying that what israel is doing amounts to war crimes. what of a tweet from the women is that we should not be rubber stamping weapons sales. we have to protect human rights. what they're talking about. is it a resolution that was introduced in the house of representatives that essentially would try to block the announce sale of 700? 35000000 and precision guided munitions to israel. the white house announced to congress just before the fighting started. now, there is no way that this resolution can block that sale is largely symbolic. but
10:15 pm
what these women are doing and the pressure the president is under, is essentially using their leverage to try and delay that sale and to really force israel's hand to stop the violet. kimberly, how can thank you very much. still to come on out here at the cost of reporting india's cobit crisis. more than $200.00 journalists, a last to the current of ira. ah hello the weather. amazed disappointedly. call across not to hear back boys. it's sherry as well. more of those heavy showers rattling through very low pressure into east and possibly some heavy down pulls. coming in here. we're going through the next 24 hours or so because rush of showers that across much of the content, the warm sunshine,
10:16 pm
best place to go is across the med is fine. and why have largely clear skies as a move out of the way? look what's coming in next, and unseasonably wet and when the area of low pressure sweeping. and this is the sort of thing you expect to see around october when it's making its way across. the pretty styles as we go on through thursday on into friday. very strong winds, potentially damaging winds coming in across southern parts of england and wales. and those brisk winds could guster around a 100 kilometers per hour and expose spots set when, when the weather will drive its way for the race, which as we go on 3 friday, there is likely to be some travel disruption. somebody to watch out for every showers ahead of that we see some wet weather into good parts of france. rush showers into central and eastern parts. if you up and down towards turkey, but the med stays fine and dry with plenty of sunshine, sunshine stretches, work, or northern parts of africa. usually she was there for the gulf views. the
