and on friday is rainy. miss l strong caught the army, said we're is slamming you had sites in the strip. one of the group senior commanders was killed. several civilians died as well, including a 5 year old girl. what is this child's fault? she was dreaming of going to kindergarten and asked her father for a school bag and clothes. what has she done wrong? this innocent child? when it's ready and strikes have continued for a 2nd day, even the say has moved from garza city. this is the 2nd day of israeli rates across the gaza strip and a serious development of these raids israel and now is targeting residential buildings and residential homes and even civilians. this used to be a 2 story residential building of for apartment. it has been totally destroyed and brought to the ground. the families here were given 15 minutes to evacuate before

it was completely destroyed. not only this building has been completely destroyed, but all the other residential buildings and apartments adjusted to the building have been partially and severely damaged. and this is serious development. another home intelligent however you're oh, so couple of meters away from this area has been targeted medical cruise. tell us that a lot of injuries, mostly from children where a brought out of that targeting. we do not have the final number from the ministry of health, but until now, 12 people have been killed and over a 100 have been injured in the latest israeli escalation on because this trip unit, the for inside story got a slimy you had 5 more than

a 100 rockets towards southern israel, many of them intercepted by the iron don't defense system. john holman, has more from the israel garza border. we're here on the border between israel and garza back there. in the last few hours has been rockets heading across from garza into israel. a lot of those have proved ineffectual, even because israel's i and don't anti rocket system has shut them down or because they've landed in d populated areas of food. ensure in garza and this is come this retaliation after israel on friday launch strikes into garza that killed a leader of islamic jihad that came after earlier in the week is ran also detained, a leader of islamic jihad in the occupied west bank. so at the moment is to actions from israel, especially the strike on friday,

this cause this retaliation from islamic jihad. now the question that everyone's asking is whether this will escalate further. that seems to be a question of hamas. the other group in garza that control much of garza get involved in this or whether they don't. there's also questions about why israel is chosen to do this. they say that it's been in essence, a preemptive strike, because there's been a threat to them from garza. a lot of other people speculating. this is about internal politics and elections. yay le, pete. the act in prime minister wanting to show that he strong. we will see how this develops in the coming hours in the coming days, john, home, an inside story. now let's take a closer look at the palestinian islamic jihad or p. i. j's it's known. the group was founded in the 19 eighties and is the 2nd largest group in gaza, off the math. that too often act independently of one another. the p i. j keeps the presence in garza and the occupied west bank with the focus on military

confrontations. iran is a major financial supporter. the group has been designated a terrorist organization by israel, the united states, the european union, the u. k. japan, canada, and australia. when sammy ger had, and hamas have a common stance against israel, but the relationship can become tense when i'm ass, exerts pressure on the p i. j to stop attack. so retaliations the well let's bring in our guest into the show. we have joining us from garza raji surani, a lawyer and the director of the palestinian center for human rights from ramallah . no router, a political analyst and colonist and from west jerusalem, you only been asked him a political and list and journalist one. welcome to everyone. i could start with, nor do you think we're going to see another. busy full blown war in garza.

well, i think that still it's still not clear so far. it doesn't seem like this is going to escalate into something, lack of the aggression that we saw last year. but i think it's important to remind the viewers that garza has been under assault and siege for over 15 years. in fact, a lot more than that. but let's just examine the past 15 years. this is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. the majority of the population of 2000000 are children and they, the most of their lives has been spent under siege by israel. and so that, that means that they've lived their life in a state of perpetual trauma, perpetual violence as well. and these episodes of try to assault and military grades are just the, you know, the heightened accent browse right. and it will get more into the reality of

the daily grind of life for people in gaza. but let me re focus back on the question of what garza is heading into and let me ask you only do you think these railey the to ship one so full blown war right now with garza? of course not. who wants a war? nobody wants a war. i think it will happen, these are slamming you had organisation, they tried to change the rule of the games and create a new equation. and the escalated over the rest of the summer thought the one of the leaders were thinking janitta was arrested. and since they try to change the things you know, any, when even after that arrest on tuesday, we didn't see the much feared wide wave of palestinian. it attacks

into israel after that arrest on tuesday up until the attacks these ready raids on friday. right. right. but then of course, i don't represent these really government or you really are me, a says, and i don't have any reason to doubt them because it is the trick that i made with my sources confirmed that day. some it, was it an attack a on these early settlements on the border with guys using a anti pick a call next a me size and snipers and what israel, these are these really ami the they wanted to display that back. actually what they did is a preemptive strike, or if you activate the sun and the say it cause the escalation and

the rockets over $200.00 rockets were launched by the slimy g have towards these were let me bring noah back in. as the only said, no one wants a full blown war. why are we seeing an escalation then? no. well, i think of this israeli government manufactured this escalation. it pushed for it over the past 2 weeks. it did. it took every measure imaginable to increase tensions, whether it's by raids and detentions and assassinations in the west bank by sealing off the gaza strip, which cannot survive without access to goods from outside this trip. immediately after detaining bus on the saturday and then by assassinating a prominent leader of the p, i. j. in on friday, this was, this is on, on the israeli government, this is on the israeli prime minister who is going to run for elections. and

unfortunately, we've seen this term before, we seen is really leaders feeling that they need to prove themselves worthy of the israeli vote. especially those votes on the right by proving that they can be tough on the palestinians that they can commit or crimes against the palestinians. without hesitation, and that's really what we're saying. we're seeing, we're seeing really jump in israeli like bringing to the point which you only made . he said, look, i checked with my sources. this was an intervention by israel to stop a plan to attack by palestinian islamic jihad. i think he's referring to the israeli air strikes, which began on friday. right. well, i mean, you know, your guests might consider the israeli army a credible source. but i think those of us, we've covered this for a long time and, and still remember the spin that was, he was told even about the killing of a dear colleague. she didn't actually know to the credibility of this occupying

army. there is no such thing as a pre emptive strike. you cannot kill someone extra judicially assassinate someone because you think they're going to carry out something. the fact is not a single shot was fired from gaza. israel escalated israel, targeted islamic she had in the west bank and gaza. israel created this escalation, created this mass, and we'll have to take responsibility for it. what is happening is on their hand, or maybe it's important. take a little step back, raji, whatever the, you know, how this got escalated at this point we're getting reports of civilians paying a price including children being killed in some of these as strikes by the israelis. what would a, why, the war mean for basic human rights for civilians,

both palestinians and israelis living in the south. this is really the one of the most with conflicts in the history. and i'm not saying, you know, go to and that was the entire fly. although since 2014 the presented to the i c. c, there was an investigation opened and i think that the great mark for loss book came on garza. i think that may 2021 last year and. and every time you sort of targeting to offensive in got that got very intentional and it's very clear. and are you of the storm cdn and civilian targets. more than 70 percent can

killings destruction or smear last year where civilians and c m targets including 60 to children has been can and in days. so in what they are doing, they are not treated in targeting this on the 1st day or hammers. who are the good guys in this time? but they are targeting palestinian cities. they are the ones in the store and they are doing this to then killing, enduring distortion, social or political suffocation. i don't know why they've located garza for the last 16 years. why 2200000 people in 300. ready 5

square 2 meters as being persecuted with the crime located according to us that you were it drives persecution and is, or should you hold that don't have been for him and for many men, right? that is or i'm sorry, let me bring in yoni again. you know, no touched on the point of upcoming elections in israel and many analysts, including even some israeli commentators have written today about their suspicion that these re the ass strikes might have something to do with those upcoming elections. want to make of that uni hello k. eventually after the strong the fight a will be over at the politician. i will use what happened in guys they are deleted, it can be, this is possible, but to,

to come in say that this is the reason for what happened for the a preemptive strike to, to thwart the there are thread. um god, i think this is exaggerated. i think that it in, i didn't, they get that information is the guess from allison, from these early army. i may cover you say what is happening a 3rd to so the last 40 years and believe me, i have credible sources. and i checked this information to thoroughly. and the reason for the setback was to athwart their attack. and it's got nothing to do with politics. but i think it's possible that the politician will use it a political campaign. this is a possibility the only what prompted the israeli raid on jeanine on tuesday, you referred to the reason for the is radia strikes on friday, being a preemptive strike, to stop attacks on israel. what prompted the,

the beginning of this round with the, the move which israel made by raiding jeanine on tuesday, dragging out. but sam saddie from the camp of video, showed him being drag dogs fighting him, that sort of operation. i mean, at that time again the, the will, didn't see the volleys of palestine. iraq, it's going across from gauze or into, into us is happening. we what is happening is jolene is a daily seeing. there are at the lost control in the city of ginni, the refugee camp of jeanine, and the few villages surrounding they cannot. they control these areas any more security wise and the same as a result. deputies of the, on the military rule, purple is still in groups. jenny developed and they started to it is

to become a threat to user security. and there is some of a, or them even use restricted israel and here without their attacks. a lack the wanting to levine is so where would these early army was doing their own ration of arrests and it becomes a bus on the side the what you said read from the house and so on. he was, he tried to escape from israel army and he was captured and taking to detention interrogation. this is what you saw. and these are the pictures that you so i know, i guess for many, including the you and investigators that handed in a report on june. the 7th. it comes down to when you start to break it down like we're doing on the show, it comes down to the occupation. they say that these tensions, they're referring to the last major war between israel and garza,

were caused by what it calls a perpetual occupation of palestinian areas with no apparent intention of ending it is this violence simply the cost of what the un investigators call a perpetual occupation absolutely, and it's also the result of the arrogance of israel, the occupying power that expects the people it occupies to be subdued, to die quietly, to surrender, to detention quietly and to not resist or demand freedom. that is not attainable formula. it is not a situation that any occupier has been able to create much less israel. but because israel has gotten so used to being treated exceptionally to countries covering up for its crimes, protecting it from accountability, whether at the international criminal court or otherwise it has become so they

should in expressing its indignation at any fine of palestinian resistance or demand for freedom, it expects that all palestinians will acquiesce to its hedge, a monic power. and so it doesn't see that it's grades on jeanine are provocative. it doesn't see the killing of palestinians as an incendiary as illegal as crimes. and it, it doesn't expect or doesn't accept that at such crimes, such murders would have a reaction so long as the this occupation and the culture of impunity with which it operates, continues. then of course we go, you know, this, this reality of brutalization of traumatize ation of violence will, will persist. and really, ordinary palestinians are the ones who continue to pay

a very dear price, especially in god. let me tell you about point back then to yoni. i mentioned what the un investigators had found on june the 7th human rights organizations have said, similar things. you can look up, amnesty international may 2021 where they say, quote, unless the world presses israel to address the root cause is like the legal blockade of, of gaza. impunity, dispossession, oppression of palestinians. there'll be another round of civilian death and destruction does not come back yoni to this being the price of occupation and ball cade. look, it's very clear that the solution to this problem is the political solution and not the military solution. and is it not the end of occupation, the jani latera different thoughts, school, thoughts about the work you use? especially as referred to, got a street for israel with through obliquely,

for may. the gods us 3. as you know, it's true, there is a brocade on garza, but this is a result of what happened. you guys still a, if there is still going to zation pull, come up and meet the who are in, took over a by force. a took over that as a st. expelled the palestinian authority from gaza and a building b j. there are infrastructure in gaza, which is in full of panels there. okay. and it is all he needs to try and attack israel and destroy the state of israel. they said publicly, even the sonic jihad and just look at the name of the organizations you have. what does it me? in arabic, of course i know what it means,

only wore it only war against who actually actually it means a struggle, but the match will get lost in semantics to deep into as a does this mean or destruction of the state of israel or holy war. but reckoning our victor and, and anyway, ultimately the, our, let me because we're going to go a few minutes. we haven't really heard enough. i don't think from raji, ron, you are already getting reports that for example, israel a stop the shipment of fuel into garza because of this latest escalation and that the power station of garza is not now functioning. tell us what that means for daily life. people going to school, people in their homes for hospitals, or just a gland as being so worried that it goes up. and i'm sitting with just one reason that i have my private generator. otherwise its mission impossible even to contact outside word. second. it's not going to,

i mean, you know, for the mediums and students, but then there was a system lapsed and their health system labs. i mean there is hundreds of medical patients with me every day. now it's almost 0 degree because operation, it doesn't work at the time being even considering what we call life a lot so many will die because of the transfer to receive that nobody can get a bite stating that it be it's not allowed that need to be taken garza and they've been suffering good on the 6th or in you. all right, well i think we're going to have to leave the discussion at that. thank august very much for that contributions. raji surani nora and only been asked him thank you to

for what jane can see the show again, any time by visiting our website al jazeera dot com for the discussion head over to our facebook page. that's facebook dot com forward slash ha inside story. can also join the conversation on twitter handle that was on a j inside story. from me, sammy's a dial, and the whole team. now, goodbye. ah, a post colonial world. the stars of european imperialism run deep. nowhere more so than in the

democratic republic of congo. where her history still shapes the president of visceral, yet intimate insight through the eyes of a whistleblower and the patriotic military commander witnessed presents. this is congo, honor jesse though. the latest news, as it breaks the country will what a more they want a controversial constitutional rep around them, which is why they expected to both present slaves or tort detailed coverage because the fertilizer has more than doubled the season. that's largely due to the warren. you crate from around the world. all of these cows are infected with foot and mouth . disease fe, dairy cattle, but then milk production has dropped by more than 70 percent. unbelievable. it sounds like an agreement between criminal justice is slight trading in stolen goods

that have been taken by the place. if anyone ever comes to asking the question, they sort of throw their hands up in the air and say, i don't know, i was just a nominee director. were doing a, an investigation into a ukraine. could you? i bribes, you've been corrupt. i've been caught up. i did just what is it in c, al jazeera investigations, the oligarchs. let's get to the bottom line. what does a new forever proxy war mean for america and nato? it's very hard to say where the escalation stopped. is it a mistake to open up, is that a pandora's box? if you want to be ready for the next pandemic, you figure out this point to the bottom line, we can take on the us politics in society. bold and i'm told stories from asia and the pacific on al jazeera ah.
