we're not him. of any reports of injuries on the israeli side, a lot of those rockets being stopped by the iron dough, which is the israeli system against rockets to stop them even in the air. and those that have landed seem to have done so in areas where they haven't been able to to hurt anyone. there are other countries weighing in on this and other organizations. the united states is one of the earliest a tweet from the ambassador's ro, saying that the united states firmly believes the israel has a right to protect itself. we're engaging with different sides for come. so that was seen as quite firmly citing with the, with the israel in the jordanian foreign minister. the country obviously just to the east took a different tone calling for an end to the condemned israeli aggression against the gaza strip. and the un also the special coordinator for the middle east peace
7:07 am
process. also waited and said that he was deeply concerned. or the palestinian presidency of called on the international community to press israel to stop its attacks on gaza and to provide protection to people that hundreds of people protested in ramallah to show their support for the people. have garza pensions have been high in the west bank of the month, arrayed by israeli security forces, correspondence. abraham having the past and in presidency, has condemned the installation, calling a dangerous calling upon the international community to intervene to stop what they called it. these rainy exclamation also we heard from the palestinian prime minister, how much the you talking about the escalation saying, it's israel that started this week, people to enter my la, go out in the throughout the protest, calling for unity calling for retaliation. we've also seen a 10 situation engineering in the north will be occupied with bank. this is we're
7:08 am
excited to senior plumbing. she had b. there was a respite from engineering itself. has been the epicenter of our coverage and has been the center of attention in the past. few months, as these radio wisdom has been conducted almost nightly and daily, we to the outskirts of the refugee camp fear we know that there are armed men in the camps there estimated at the lower 100, they would fight and engaged in armed confrontations would be ready forces when they twice to enter their future camp and arrest people see, are we both of those armed men yesterday and going and showing a 4th in the camp holding weapons. because as we know, ever since israel has arrested the sam from jeanine on monday, the mac g have has raised its level of alert, has told its all members to be ready to europe, to basically make israel page,
7:09 am
which is the terminology that they've been using for arresting seniors, flemming to had needed with them a saturday from june. the us national security spokesmen, john kirby says israel has the full support of the united states before or like to defend itself to the solution. of course, we remain committed to the president strip. busy to jerusalem and we want to want to president jordan has more on the reaction and washington d. c. the bind administration is also reaching out to what it calls the relevant parties, asking them to try to calm the situation,
7:10 am
to not aggravate attention and to try to was stop of the violence that has been erupt in, in is in southern israel and in the gaza. strip a all day on friday and into the overnight the bye didn't ministration, of course is a very much committed to a 2 state solution, but it has also been a very clear and we saw this when the u. s. president joe biden was in israel and occupied was to bank recently that he knows that the situation is not at a place where the parties could negotiate in good faith on trying to achieve a separate palestinian state. it's not just that of the biden administration isn't going to engage with hamas, or with as long as lama jihad, that has been the policy of previous a u. s. administration. but the usaa government under joe biden has been rather explicit in its view that these organizations are proxies for iran. you're just not
7:11 am
going to see u. s. officials engaging with hamas, or with islamic jihad. what you are going to seeing is engagement with the palestinian authority and its president mahmoud abbas. you're going to see an engagement, of course, with the israeli government. and you're going to see engagement with other parties in the region with egypt, with jordan, with other countries that may be able to bring indirect influence upon hamas and islamic jihad. but you're not going to see the americans doing it themselves. that's just an odd starter or phyllis. dennis is a fellow at the institute for policy studies and she says the united states continues to be a very strong supporter of israel. it sounds very consistent with what we can expect from the u. s. if they haven't said it yet, they're going to say something like that very soon. i have no doubt. there is this constant sense of yes, we call on both sides to tamp down. but we respect israel's right of self defense. which 1st of all is not even an issue here because there was no attack that israel
7:12 am
was responding to. it was responding to what it said could have been an attack. we expected there might be an attack. and therefore, we have the right to do anything we want, including violations of international law, such as collective punishment. the failure to distinguish between civilian and military targets. among the 8 people at least, that have been killed so far. i was a 5 year old girl and a 23 year old woman. the others. we don't know yet who they were. but this notion of protecting israel's rights to do whatever it chooses against the palestinians where the palestinians have no such rights. despite president biden's rhetoric on his trip where he said that his goal is a situation in which palestinians and israelis have equal access to security prosperity, et cetera. there is no action. the u. s. takes that treats them as equals. it treats the israelis as the only country with rights. while the united nations
7:13 am
middle east coordinator has court for de escalation of the fighting, christian flaming has worn out from the un and you there can be no justification for attacks on civilians. those are the words of middle east coordinator toward venice land in response to the recent attacks in gaza. he noted that a 5 year old child is among the dead and express concern that this escalation between palestinian militants and israel. and what he described as the targeted killing of the palestinian islamic jihad leader could further exacerbate tensions in the region intentions, which have been growing and brewing not only in gaza, but also across the west bank. and of course, it's the united nations that gets called in to pick up the pieces after conflicts like this in the occupied territories. and he express concern that civilians will ultimately be the ones who pay the worst price at
7:14 am
a time when international support and international funding to help in situations like this is stretched very thin. so a word of caution from the middle east coordinator words released on twitter and in statements to the media, calling on both sides to tone down their response and protect civilians are still ahead here on out as aaron chillies, new constitution as opposed to you. nice. it's people, but critics say it's true radical. and ferdinand ma fos junior has been president of the philippines for just a few weeks. but his infamous father is grabbing headlines with 2 movies at telling a very different stories. ah, richard, he has begun the 3 full world copies on its way to the castle route. you will travel package to the and off we go with your weather update for the middle east
