[000:00:00;00] i just 0 when ever you write down to the me with israeli as dr. continue as the united nations prepared to meet to discuss the crisis. ah, i'm sorry. he had hey, this is out of their life and also coming up as strikes. continue. rockets have again been fired into israel another day of mourning for those who died

in the violence. ah, now the united nations general assembly is about to meet to discuss the continuing violence in gaza. where people living in to crowded residential areas have been targeted by ongoing israeli strikes. generally, a refugee camp in northern garza has been hit upwards of 90000 people live there. the other area that's been targeted is soft. we people living that want to leave by israeli forces shortly before the strike? well, let's take you to a live shot. this is a city skyline. in gaza. it is now just after 5 pm in the afternoon, while at least one person was killed this morning that had been that the injuries, the death toll is expected to rise. more children had been brought to hospital, including that as it was saying here in con unit, at least 231 palestinians,

including 65 children, have been killed since this conflict broke out 11 days ago. we were in the living room when the rocket hit our house. everything was filled with white smoke and we couldn't see anything. they mean we were sleeping. they didn't alert us at anything . we certainly heard a blast, everything through everywhere. we thought it hit us, but realized it hit our neighbor's house who works here and cheap a hospital. he is not a militant or anything of the sort. neither a we, i don't know why they do this to a, what is their goal? we are exhausted. what we demand is no sci fi or anything. we either all die or all live. that's it. and in the occupied westbank, it's another day of morning. a funeral procession has taken place in jeanine for a palestinian man who died after being shot by israeli security forces at a protest. a few days ago. 27 palestinians have been killed in the occupied west bank since the latest a reduction in violence. while within israel residents there remain on higher lat.

let's show you some pictures from this moment. just a short while ago, when palestinian fractions launched a 4th wave of rockets from gaza towards communities and southern israel. throughout the day, warning sirens have been ringing out and multiple towns and people have been told not to leave their shelters. 12 people in israel have been killed in this conflict that includes 2 children. israeli tanks and troops remained gathered and on the land near the border. well, algebra software are loose is now live for us from the ground in gaza. support starting with these rocket attacks that we've been seeing. can you talk us through what you've been seeing and hearing that now we can hear that terry, defying their fire from the east of garden city station in the border line with garden city at least 5 in the last few minutes before that we could hear

also better it gets fired from god into southern is on the 15 if it can in order than the last waves of rocket. that's where fired from god. that's the military wing of hon. i said that the 5 more another more barajo rockets, which means by waves of rockets the waters as well to specifically towards us kill on on towards which, which that we considered a new escalation. and the last couple of days, because most of the fire was intensified, i mean the fire fire from got into southern is intensified and southern. there's especially along the border. so in the last hour we could, we could realize that the, the fire from got the fire from got into it, but i was intensified to 5 waves of rockets into southern specifically and

an article just minutes before we left. tough. tell we the last last time when i want to go just minutes after we left the alien hit one of the car also killing to to policy and stuff that we neighborhood. now we are, we also here we just you that there is another attack days. they had another car also in job shop to the fiji. also they had a house in the west of garden city. so the last few to hours listed, we can say there is the fire is intensified. the faint of the fire from both sides is much higher than earlier today and stuff and then stuff. what i'm curious, you are standing in gaza where we know that supplies are running low and there is a building humanitarian crisis that can you give us a sense of what the situation is like there on the ground. and just how people are

coping. there are actually because of the bombing we we forgot that fair about this guy. what's happening behind us? we are hearing got the city on that. we are in the front of the united nation building next also we, we have, let me university, they call it the universe. it is a road or street behind us. we have also the line of, with the full of libraries and bookstores. this building contains 2 big libraries in gara cultural centers and mosque 2 days ago. it was completely destroyed by israeli fighting, just like we just spoke to. one of the people here they said simply the they want the neighborhood and they asked them to evacuate. on few few hours later, they bring it, they brought it down completely. this is, this was one of the targets that was part of days,

really bank of targets including another local library that like 3 or 400 meters from here. well that's what they're on the ground for us in gaza with all the laziness. thank you so much. stuff lunch. well, let's now take you to west jerusalem. correspondent iran con, is that for f? well, him run as we see the general assembly beginning to meet the pressure clearly building as well as speculation around the potential push for the slides. just how realistic is that? well, it really depends on who you speak to. if you're speaking to people involved with in israeli politics, they say that prime minister benjamin netanyahu is under a tremendous amount of pressure to bring this to an end. but if you speak to him or at least listen to his public statements, he says this could go on for as long as absolutely necessary. in fact,

just 2 days ago, he was saying that he had options. there was a terrance in gaza or he could conquer god and that was going on in the next few hours. is the israeli security cabinet is meeting the chair by the catholic, a prime minister. benjamin netanyahu in that meeting will be discussing that next move. the next options, what will happen next, and what kind of moves they might they may do. now this happens on a fairly regular basis that happened much more during a time of conflicts. of these meetings i've been going on very regularly right now . oftentimes, we won't be told what happened in those meetings that may be some sort of leaks coming out. but if there is a see file coming in the next coming days, it will be in that meeting. certainly one of those meetings that will be discussed, the other meetings that the sci fi will be discussing is when the prime minister meets with his military official, the chief of the army stop. yeah, for success for which is something that they,

they will discuss the ceasefire and see what happens. they'll also be keeping an eye on the united nations meeting to try and see what kind of pressure comes from men. private is the bridge with us and you know, who's very good resisting united nations pressure as we've seen in the past. but the one type of pressure he's always paid attention to is that from the united, from united states. now, we've been hearing from the united states president joe biden, he said that he wants de escalation on the road to a cease fire. however, given a timeline for that, and this is saying as either being too soft on the prime minister of israel or being too harsh on the problem, is that these, well, depending on who you speak to this, the fact that no timeline was given. but there was this kind of, not i, threats, but kind of soft language de escalation on the road to a sci fi is seen by many as giving netanyahu

a green light to continue the operation for as long as possible. but other people say, this is just the 1st sign of pressure coming from the us administration, and it will ramp up in the coming days and run. i'm curious about netanyahu's calculations taking into account domestic politics as well. just how israeli citizens viewing what they've been seeing over the last 11 days. and how does that shaping netanyahu's choices here? well, if you speak to residents in the south, and they've been very, very, very vocal, not just speaking to us, but speaking to the media, they don't want a sci fi with how much they want about completely defeated. now those are the people that are in the front line of the rock is released used to be until this round of complex, where i'm asked is proven. and other palestinian factions in prison in gaza that it can actually strike much further even into television, central israel than ever before. but in the south that there's very much

a hotline we want. and prime minister benjamin the at yahoo is the only person who can get rid of how about however, that's not something that the prime minister has actually come out and said is not even a seemingly a goal of the operation. the goal of the operation is to deter huh. however, others will tell you that this operation is simply to keep him in power to prove to israelis that he is the security president, that he's the one that can secure israel. now that's very much an opinion. certainly coming from a lot of people, but it's one, it's been backed up by at least history. we've seen partners to benjamin a when he's been painted into a corner fight. and this is a political fight he's and he's only the caretaker. prime minister. remember, there was an election and at the moment there's still no real leader insight. so he's still battling for political office and the number of israelis sickly and he

netanyahu israelis will tell you. actually all of this is simply designed to make sure that is right. you see him as the security prime minister and the leader that can take us out of this and he's hoping that gets him another term in office and run con, that with all the nations for us from west jerusalem. thank you so much. m ron, who let's not get the view from ramallah. correspondent holder i don't need is there for us. or there's also been told from him, off officials about this potential si fi. can you give us a sense of where that conversation is after that? well, i mean, so far we haven't had any a d case official indication that that sees fire is when and even though it's kind of a, it's kind of out there. everybody is talking about private, at least some officials are talking about it. so that is kind of meant them and it's kind of an app. and that puts you have an dissipation that that sees fire, could go sooner rather than later. there was

a believe that may have happened this morning at 6 o'clock in palestine time or israel time was that did not happen. now there is talk or does a sense of anticipation that that might happen later. but there's still a lot of diplomacy that is ongoing as we speak. the german foreign minister is expected in a couple of hours here in rome. led to meet with palestinian president mahmoud abbas. there's actually a protest down here on the script behind us against his visit. many, but it didn't thinking that he has been very unfair with them saying that he has equated really from their point of view, the israeli position to the palestinian position. now, as the fire will be welcome, but a lot of polish thing is that that has happened many times in the past. after each war. they say, well, what do we get out of it? are we going to get still?

the status quo is nothing going to changes is guys are going to be under located if you know the issues of do that, i'm still going to be there at the occupation is still going to continue. so yes, you would have palestinian wanting to see these fires church and the at that stop to the death of people in garza. but the others had. they also want to see something else. they want to see a change in the status quo. they want to see at they want to get a sense that the national commute is working to find something that will actually at least improve their living conditions. i please give them the hope that at a certain point, this occupation what and so you do have all of these mixed feelings each time. there is a war, especially in gaza and each time there is talk about the fire. i see from the general assembly speaker list today that the palestinian foreign minister riyadh

leaky. he'll be the 1st to speak today off to the un secretary general. i'm curious . what do you think palestinian officials will be looking for from the general assembly meeting today? i think they will be looking for some pressure on israel. you know, some condemnation about what has been going on and some call for really a cease fire that they say they feel that it's all the blame with all is put on the palestinian side. he said that there's a round of violence is always the palestinians who are, who are blamed for it is a difference of optics when they regard, when it comes to how much the international community israel would look at how much as a terrorist organization. whereas for many palestinians, whether young or old, how much is a resistance group? and they think that the right of resistance is something in, in, in, tried in the un charger. and so how much should not always take the blame for all

what's happening. so they will be looking a very closely at the resolution, the wording of the resolution. and whether that resolution would put more blame on one side or the other, or would just simply call for association of hostilities without really giving that blame to any party in particular. how to do that on the ground for us in ramallah. thank you so much. while the united nations general assembly is currently meeting to discuss the israel palestine conflict, we can now speak to christine salumi. she is at the un following that meeting for us. christine, we know that meetings just just begun in the last few minutes. what do we expect to emerge from it if anything? well, what we have here is right now the president of the general assembly addressing this body on the situation in the middle east will be hearing from the secretary

general will be hearing from ministerial level government officials. who came, come all the way to new york to make their positions heard in this international forum. many of these countries have already been calling for an immediate cease fire. they're hoping to amplify that call by being in the general assembly hall. and also i think bring some context to the most recent fighting in gaza and israel, and call attention to the underlying issues that lead to this point. namely the ongoing occupation. in fact, we've just been hearing from the president of the general assembly talking about just that the vulcan boss care pointed out that the issue of israel palestine is one of the longest on the un agenda in the history of this body. it's the longest on the us agenda that's really saying something. so do we expect any action to come out of this meeting at this stage?

we expect more speeches, more calls for action. and really, that is the main thing because basically attempts to elicit an international response in a formal way have been stymied largely by the united states. kristen and i'm actually wanting to take our view is now live to the united nations . as you were saying, vulcan boss kid, the un general assembly president has just finished speaking and we do expect to hear any minute now from antonio hair as the un secretary general, as christian was referring to, this is a special session that has been called specifically to discuss the israeli palestinian conflict and we do have a number of foreign ministers who we do expect to hear from shortly. but as i say, and when you get harris has just started speaking that's just in them in the occupied palestinian territory, particularly gaza. and israel,

i am deeply shocked by the continued air and artillery bombardment by the israeli defense forces in gaza. as of 900 may have claimed the lives of at least 200000 hate palestinians, including 60 children and enjoy the thousands more. the continue, the distributed fighting of rockets by mars and other meetings and groups was population centers in israel, resolved to get at least 12 fatalities, including 2 children and others of injuries is also an acceptable my heart goes out today to the victims and their loved ones the fight, think must stop immediately. i appeal to all parties to cielo, to seize or steal it, these now, and i right, right, my call on all sides for an immediate cease fires, you'll still have cause serious damage to vital civilian infrastructure in gather, including robes and electricity lines contributing to you many said any emergency

crossing into gas been closed and power shortage is affecting water supplies. under the billions buildings and homes have been destroyed, damaged, or rattled and inevitable. air strikes and damage. several hospitals, which would already short of supplies with the use of the be thinking closures exists, invited by the coffee in 1900 pandemic. the fighting is left thousands of palestinians, homeless and forth, over $50000.00 people, believe that ohms and seek shelter. the moon was schools, mosques, and other places with little excess to water, food i gene, or al services. i was already fired by reports of 9 members of one family were killed, you know, shot the refugee camps. if that he's the hell or nurse it is the lives of children in gaza to day the distraction of me, the offices and the killing of a generally seem guys are extremely concerning. general, it's must be able to carry out that essential work in the in conflict zones without fear of

a tech and osment. they must be protected and respected. i'm deeply distressed by damage to united nations facilities in gaza. united nation is mrs. r inviolable, including during our conflicts. you may have said installations must be respected and protected. united nations agencies and our partners continue to provide aids to the people of gaza. owner is providing binky, water, sanitation, electricity generators. for those sheltering in the schools while go food program as provide electronic vouchers to 74000 people in gaza and the secretary general medical caulk and i will launch a fully meditating appeal for funding as soon as possible. and meanwhile, to meet the media needs. i'm working on an allocation from the center emergency response funds and you mentioned coordinator intends to release 14000000 us dollars from the military and funds for the occupied palestinian territories. i had $2.00

to follow through on the pledges they have made. excess 40 mediterranean goods is paramount. attacks by millions, groups on area surrounding crossing points are acceptable. at the same time, israel is a duty to 11 so silly dates rapid and hinder the excess 40 meditating night, including foods full and medical supplies into gaza. excellencies. meanwhile, rockets fired by millions and seam garza every just fine stella even the suburbs and been an airport claiming civilian lives, causing and of injuries and damaging residential and commercial property. with the present excellencies, even war and rules. first and foremost, civilians must be protect it. indiscriminate effects and the facts against civilians and civil and property are evaluations of the laws of loss. so a lot of tax against military objectives that cause these proportional loss of

civil life and the injury to civilians. there is no justification, including cult 30 is more self defense. for the vacation by the parties to the conflict of their obligations on international humanitarian law. i urge the authorities to abide by the laws governing gotten conflict, including the propulsion of use of force. and i call on them to exercise maximum restrict restraint in the conduct that really did patients. i likewise job more than that. that means groups who stopped this commit launching of rockets and more than from the populated civilian neighborhoods in civilian population center in israel. also in clear violation of international humanitarian law, densely populated c, v, natty as must not be used for military purposes. but above all, what we must and i am repeating my appeal. what we must have achieved is an immediate cease fire. mister president, excellency's. i'm also deeply concerned by the continuation of violent clashes

between israelis. it could be forces and palestinians across the occupied west bank, including east jerusalem, where several policies families are under the threat vixon. these developments were preceded by weeks of tension, including around the holy sites. i had israel to see demolitions and the evictions in the occupied policy. the territory including his gentlemen in line with obligations, internationally made italian and human rights. small all settlement activities including evictions or demolitions at illegal and the international law. jerusalem is the holy city for city war religions and the score that the stop score, all the sites must be pelf and respected in israel criminal violence and the limited ref. 40 cave added a further wording. dimension to the crisis. these localized violence has diminished over the past week and that command jewish and that community leaders and civil society organizations for their positive contributions to peace. furthermore, with every day that passes,

the risk of violence could spread beyond the israel and the parts policy and territory increases. this conflict creates an environment that is right for exploitation. by radicals and extremists, we must prevent at all costs. the emergence of a new lock was a dangerous instability in the region. it is imperative that we achieve the escalation to prevent and contain about cross border security and humanity in crisis. is the president excellencies united nations officials, including my special coordinator for the middle east process. and myself, are undertaking extensive diplomatic efforts within the region, including with egypt, jordan and cutoff. and we keep part of the international community to encourage all sides to all the violence. we are engaging directly with the parties to conflict, including hamas, you know, effort to secure, and then to still use. i command the ongoing efforts of member states. aim that

encouraging all parties to exercise restraint. the escalade tensions prevents for the civilian casualties and rich cessation, most of these and i call on all members international community to do everything that follow to enable the parties to conflict, to step back from the bring. and i call the parties themselves law for mediation efforts to in since the fight in order to bring the fighting to an end. these only think events did not arise united relation. there must be viewed in the context of decades of military occupation, political deadlock, grievances, and hopelessness. and the failure to address the court issues at the heart of the conflicts. we know far too well that violence begets violence. the unconscionable death, suffering, and destruction of the past 10 days, only serve to push the prospect of sustained peace further into the future. or even the last, this process is the only way to adjust the last thing solution. it is imperative that we keep these long term visual alive. it stopped by the placing end that and

this you lose meant with hope for the future in each of those policies that these vales leave side by side in peace and security. we must, what was the resumption of legal ca. so that's one of the rest, the stop of jerusalem and the final stop was issues and the occupation and the law for the realization of a 2 state solution on the basis of $967.00 lines un resolutions international law, which will agreements with joseph thomas capitol of both israel and palestine. united nations is deeply committed working with israelis and palestinians, and with our international regional partners, including the new lease quartets to realize a last thing and just piece. only 3 new in our commitment and we doubling our efforts towards the negotiated solution. can we bring the school violence and hatred to a definitive ends? and i thank you. i thank the 2nd general for his statement. i now give the floor to his excellent city,
