5:04 pm
how must clearly feels it has improved it standing among palestinians in relation to the rival satisfaction of palestinian president bus molecule will come after the battle of jerusalem. sword is not like what came before the posting and people have back the resistance and know that the resistance is what will liberate the land and protect the holy sites in television subjected in recent days to the heaviest, most concentrated garza rocket fire in any previous war. the sense was of wary relief that the fire is good for humanitarian reasons, to civilians to relax a little bit on both side. i'm skeptical though that it will really be kept for a while. unfortunately, i don't feel like we have much time for, for the next escalation. if anything significant will change. like if come out, we'll get to israel says the days of strikes him ga, zone tunnels. miss l site senior commanders have set how much back years and
5:05 pm
restored israeli military deterrents. president biden said the u. s. would help replenish israel's. i don't and he rocket batteries and aid rebuilding in gaza through the palestinian authority. not how must i also emphasize what i've said throughout this country. united states fully support israel's right to defend itself against indiscriminate robin rocket attacks and mosse and other gaza based terrorist groups that have taken the lives of innocent civilians in israel. 12 people including 2 children, have been killed in israel and the 11 days of fighting. israel's army says it will keep its increased military presence in place for some days. as civilian restrictions are eased in gaza to daddy, life is starting to resume here. 232 people were killed. 65 of them children. each side's victory claim is at best open to doubt what is certain. the destruction and grief left behind hurry, full set out 0,
5:06 pm
west jerusalem. having skirmishes between israeli police and worshippers of the alex, a mosque compound. what does he say? tear gas was fired as arms. please try to disperse the crowd, falling friday prayers. now we're going to have correspondence covering the story from across the region need to able to him, stand by in ramallah and the occupied westbank. first. let's go back to how you faucet. he's not moved to cover the story from garza. he earlier on we heard from how much the, the know how may and he describes the action that had been taken as saying it was a paradigm shift. the battle had been a paradigm shift and it was a gigantic lee. but, but at the same time, of course, there are palestinians, and guys who are now going back to their homes, which have been destroyed. that's right. i mean, it is a strange atmosphere here on the one hand, there is a genuine, celebrate 3 feeling because of what has happened the what he is referring to there is a victory and also referred to it as
5:07 pm
a 1st rubber tree back will be big battles. for jerusalem to come, so they the idea of fighting back for jerusalem still hold. how are the people and they are celebrating, but as you said, they are also picking up the devastation of the last 11 days. and you can see part of it behind me in the religious affairs building, but there are homes in here and there are homes all over gaza that would be destroyed the latest figures we have. is it a 1000 individual homes? i've been completely destroyed. 700 have been severely damaged and another 14000 home units have been partially damaged. so you're talking with a ratio of about more than 6 people per home in this town. and in the strict, well generally that's more than 80000 people either lost or had seriously or partially damaged. so that is a major catastrophe for this community of his papa were already talking about and
5:08 pm
hearing about rebuilding egypt pledging some $500000000.00 in rebuilding money. you heard president biden talking about trying to get reconstruction efforts going as well, but that is in the future. right now. people are dealing with a very difficult situation. would be. yeah. and given the scale of the problems that you're talking about, how you really the introduction of humanitarian aid is going to be actually the key is every sign that any a default is getting through to guys at the moment. well yes, i mean, some is the kind of the southern crossing was, was going to be open this morning and the dog crossing that we use north of garza areas. so i've been to terry and stuff to get in and out. and so there is the, the beginnings of an effort underway, but we're also hearing frustrations from the municipality here in gaza for instance, saying that they aren't getting the heavy equipment and they require to try and
5:09 pm
clear some of this stuff away and start rebuilding it. so that, that is another issue that they are having to deal with is also the question going forward for, i'm asking how they will deal with the political side of this. the fact that we are already seeing israeli forces in the alex the most compound, the police spokesman saying that they didn't, they were dealing with people throwing molotov cocktails and 5 bombs and throwing skeins at them. and so they went in and again, duncan age and all the rest of it use. so how did they respond to the idea that, well, they said that they've got this spiral victory in jerusalem. there are more scenes of sort of normal service as far as i'm and the people here, it's continuing. then we'll start to challenge that narrative as well. so there are any number of things you could pick to talk about in gaza right now. it is a really terrible scene. it is 11 days worth of extremely
5:10 pm
serious strikes, very damaging, destructive, and huge the deadly strikes that's how much has been taking and more importantly, the population here has been taking. so there is a lot a lot ahead of people here. thanks very much indeed. how are you fossil talking to us from? doesn't want to bring in need abraham, who's joining us from ramallah and the occupied west bank? i understand nita, there have been confrontations, and some stones are going on for you on what is the feeling on the ground at the moment there the general feeling years about the victory. we've interviewed a couple of people at the menorah square and they were telling us that hum office was able to unite the palestinian people under the resistance flag. a woman was carrying the green flag of us and she was saying that this is one of the times that she was able to do so under, in there was the back,
5:11 pm
which is under the palestinian authority's rule. we know that in the past that been processed, and it's been there been violence responses by the authorities beliefs when it comes to those through the carrying flag. now on the other hand, we've seen palestinians what leaving that prove the thing that was very sex area and but they were very happy when there was a general strike on tuesday because for, for as far as the people were telling us, united policy and those living in israel, those living and occupied jerusalem as was those in be occupied with back because they were ranking in one day, which is the 1st time in decades that they were able to do that. so there is a feeling that this unity is the most important thing that should be built on. and that this was, this happened because of what has been going on in gaza. and many people were telling us that it's clear now that israel doesn't understand the language of the land with the language of negotiation,
5:12 pm
but rather the language of 4th. and this is why your palestinians say that israel was the one that asked for the fire. and it got it, so this is why they believe they've won. and this is why many went to confrontation points as we're seeing here. it is really the l. allison is, are fighting against the really, i mean we're seeing somebody to speaking injured people to the hospital, but all in the across the banks are dying down. and medical sources tell us that around at least 40 people 3 of them. if i live in the room talking of course a lot about from us, but the u. s. has said that any process going forward in terms of rebuilding and renegotiating or holding towards has to be done with the palestinian authority. how is the palestinian authority dealing with this overall situation?
5:13 pm
let's remember that the p l o b sales are present to save all the palestinian people, which is the mother to say of the palestinian afford the so any talk that has to go through the international community when it comes to palestine, how to go through the palestinian authority, which is why they've been saying president beth has been saying that he is committed to going into a political process the under the quartet, which is that you, you and the us and russia. so this has been the path that much more the boss has been taking all of his life. he's been advocating for a peaceful solution, negotiations with these really to get at an end of the occupation and get the palestinians with you to sell them as a capital. what for many palestinians here, they believe that this path has not led to any successes. so it's time now to show israel that the palestinians up here that they want to use force and they can use
5:14 pm
force. so this is kind of the path that many palestinians want the palestinian authority to take. but as far as the palestinian authority is concerned, they've been saying that they're interested in a diplomatic approach. this is why they've been seeking meetings by the arab league as well as the united nations security council and the general assembly. and they remain fixated on that the approach that many palestinians say has proved failure me to have him talking to us from ramallah need to thank you very much. and he tens of thousands of people gathered for the funeral of a 17 year old, who was reportedly killed by israeli security forces in northern israel. the death of mohammed one comes amid heightened tension between israelis and palestinians. citizens of israel because it was of the young reports. yeah. in the northern israeli city of whom i mourners carry the proof of 17 year old homage. he was the to family says he was shot in the head and killed my undercover as really
5:15 pm
officers. the death comes amid rising tension between israelis and palestinians. citizens is israel today he was shown police say there was wanted to report to men who were trying to attack is really murderous. they opened fire out a vehicle that had run over a car and they say they're now investigating whether key one was in the car. there was hit the shooting in the streets. there's grief and rage medical. well, it was far too young. people have come from all the very israel and palestine to attend the funeral. i think that these rarely security forces intentionally killed him. to scare up there you are. he wants funeral morphed into a protest against violence and discrimination of palestinian israeli.
5:16 pm
as long as there is provocation against us and our religious sites, it will be a difficult situation. there is provocation from the settlers who are being supported by the israeli government. we are protesting because we have our dignity, dignity is the only thing we have now. palestinian citizens of israel make up 20 percent of the country's population. most people who live in my father speak arabic and hebrew. they often complain of systematic discrimination. unfair access to housing, health care and education. the last time violence broke out insight, israel by palestinian israelis wasn't october 2000 during the 2nd intifada that many here said this time around the inter can, you know, unrest is much worse. and regardless of the seats lawyer between hamas and israel, many believe the simmering tensions will not said anytime soon. cause you a little bit of the young. now do you still had an audio here are the dangers
