1:03 am
the palestinian armed group islamic jihad says that it's fighters have also been involved. well, we have a team of correspondence on the ground. power assume is live for us inside guys. and mohammed gems room is in west jerusalem and run con is in ramallah in the occupied west bank and in washington dc office years. alan fisher is standing by let's go to mama job june. first mohammed, you're in west jerusalem. we heard moments ago that rockets have landed in ashville on. what can you tell us? as you know, that's right, 0. this happened in the past hour up. there was a garage of rockets that were launched from the gaza strip towards escalade. many of them were told were intercepted by the iron dome defense system. one of those rockets hit what is being described as a 3 story residential building. and as a result,
1:04 am
according to authorities and ask along one young boy was injured. we are still waiting more details about the extent of the damage. we have seen videos, very dramatic pictures, the aftermath of that rocket hit on that residential building really goes to show how much concern there is at this hour as a result of, of everything that is going on. i should also update you 0 on something we were speaking about this past hour. we're still hearing that fighting in and around those towns that surround god. the fighting has abated quite a bit, but we're still hearing that is really armed forces are saying that they have relative control in the area that does not mean total control. that means that they are still quite concerned about infiltration from how most fighters are they have not
1:05 am
yet confirmed anything publicly about the amount of control that they have gotten. they have not yet confirmed that they have cleared the area of how much spiders. so a lot of concern in those areas, but what we are seeing being reported at this hour, is that the situation is not quite as volatile as it was a few hours ago when we were hearing about intense. but sporadic battles between is really service members and how mass fighters in what's called the guy, the envelope, those towns in southern israel border garza. so i'm mom and i'm listening intently to everything you're saying, am i right? that is really, authorities are not confirming at this hour and still have not confirmed that they have sealed at the border between israel and gaza. us. that's correct, serial. that is something we have not yet heard from israel. the officials, there is still
1:06 am
a lot of concern about infiltration from how much fighters we have not gotten any confirmation from israeli forces that those areas have been cleared of how much fighters. and that's one of the reasons there is so much worry from residents of that enclave. because many of them you're seeing a lot of this being reported in the media here. many of them can't understand why it has taken this long. you're almost 2 days since all of this happened. and still there's been no confirmation from the israeli army that they have been able to get complete control again of those areas and clear them of how most fighters so. so that is a very important thing to point out at this hour that these really army has not yet said that they have been able to completely clear the area of how much fibers. so earlier on sunday mohammed, these really military were saying that their priority was to evacuate those areas around the, the gaza strip. right? our viewers need to understand that the kibbutz is in the small towns. when we say
1:07 am
near the gaza strip, they might be living less than it cannot kilometer away from that border summer like hundreds of meters away from the border very near that border. and the is really military was saying that their priority is to evacuate civilians from that area within 24 hours. do we know how that's going? or it's unclear at this hour 0. exactly. what does happen when it comes to trying to evacuate those areas? there's been a lot of reports about confusion there when it comes to who exactly is on the scene . we've seen a lot of reports in the past couple of hours. it is really media that in fact there have been friendly fire incidents is really soldiers mistakenly shooting at others really soldiers in those areas. because there is so much worry about what is going on there and because the situation is so fluid. and this is something that when
1:08 am
i've spoken to people throughout the day, um here, they can't really get their heads around. this is why this is so shocking to people here in a country where the security establishment, the intelligence establishment is so vaunted. and so typically by the citizens, a highly respected and they can't understand how, what they say to me is a complete and total operational failure and intelligence failure by the israeli government. many of them just saying to me that they simply cannot process the series of events that they have seen transpire since yesterday. and, and the fact that the israeli army has not yet been able to retake control even of those towns and villages campuses, they just can't understand how that has continued to be the case. 0. option 0 is mom injunction reporting from west jerusalem. thank you very much. i want to stay on the ground and go to tarik, up was whom you were a live in gaza for us tarik. last time we spoke,
1:09 am
we could hear hear loud explosions right behind you. what's happening now, as well during the past hours, the, as for the occupation forces intensifying the level of attacks. but this time the concentration was on the government and military sites, including the destruction of a re box college for your administrative sciences. and they also wiped out the, and sought a military training compound, soon to the goal is a strip of these attacks were associated with a wide range variety of strikes in different parts and saw the goal is to strip now and originally asian to the as rarely strikes that took place in sight, the goal is to strip the militant messiahs of factoring. b is released settlements with dozens of the ranges of ruckus, but laws against the city of ash, cologne, and different of cuba. different settlements inside b is really a territories. now
1:10 am
a local authorities inside the gaza strip of clarity said that the is really strikes me to the destruction of approximately, around $159.00 residential housing units, which clearly will activate the humanitarian conditions for a lot of residents inside the gaza strip as well. i was asking, well, how about a 2nd ago about the border between guns and israel and what israel was saying about it. israel really isn't communicating much about that. do you know if, how moss or islamic you had fighters are still going through the border from hamas, into israel, us now according to the explosions dot take to ladies from time to another in eastern borders. we can clearly say that may be without confirmation
1:11 am
from officials and otherwise entities that the communication between a troops which are existing in here is really settlements. and the backup troops is still valid to this current moment. and it's absolutely essential to mention that according to the offices of the, of the military wing upon us, it's that a new backup forces have been sent in order to cover and even to support the existing forcing in the existing forces in the uh, goes a decent settlement as well, so it becomes clearly essential to know that there is no clear way to illustrate how the troops could be ins, retraces to the, to the borders. specifically that there is no access to these regions. even medical teams cannot get the order to evacuate victims and doing this injuries as well. my topic up was do minutes past 1 am where you are. we appreciate your reporting on
1:12 am
this for us, even that this our thank you very much. i want to go now to iran, con, you were in ramallah in the occupied westbank. m run. you've been feeling the ripple effect of the war taking place in the gaza strip where you are. i absolutely right. as we're speaking classes all continuing to take place at columbia, they getting bigger and be extended check point is controlled by the israelis. is there any way policies to get from ramallah into occupied east jerusalem we've seen is really so just and, and heavily on the vehicles pushed into further into the climb. the a check point has been exchange of fire. so far, 3 people have been killed. a number of been injured, we're hearing that a few of those at least all very serious injury. so we are expecting the desktop to rise. also ensure thought the refugee camp in the occupied westbank,
1:13 am
we all sing to gasping using the live fire being used as well. now we've also seen that throughout the day here in the occupied westbank. it was a day of strikes, a, it was every institution, government, institution, banking, finance, everything they all went on strike in sympathy with how may i ask them with the gaza strip that would protest it took place, but those protests, sometimes it was skirmishes where these really um, use lifestyle on the protests. they did that outside of hey, broadway. one person died. they did that outside of jericho where another person died and they also did the in nablus, what a 3rd person died. so 6 people in total just in the last few hours alone and those classes, like i say, in columbia, ensure thoughts on going, we're expecting the death, told that to rise people who are incredibly sympathetic to how may i ask. they tell you that what they will, i'm asked is doing is a simple uh, it is a simple reason for it, and that is, they've been under occupation. they've been on the siege for so long that if you
1:14 am
treat people like animals, they will eventually fight back. so there is a lot of sympathy here. and i think in the coming days we all going to see more of these classes intensify. what is right, it was actually done is a stop palestinians moving from one its area to another. normally it just around the occupied westbank. it does allow palestinians, it makes it very difficult policies to leave. now they've done that with in the occupied westbank itself. they run can you explain to our viewer the, the in truck palestinian politics here because the palestinian authority, they are the ones running to an extent the occupied westbank where you are, they are the ones who represent palestinians again, to an extent on the international stage. we saw them speaking of the united nations, but they're not the ones who triggered this the who, who commenced this uh, this latest round of fighting and how is that working and what is the palestinian authority? how are they being able to put their stamp on this?
1:15 am
it was a palestinian authors who was set up after the low codes in 1993. it was designed to unify all of the different policy new infections. i can give everybody the international community. i would single entity to speak to, but then uh, the withdrawal these ready withdrawal, the occupation of gauze that happened and a mess took over. that was 15 years ago. they've been in charge it for 15 years. the rich of the palestinian authority simply does work in the gaza strip. it's a mass to all the power that but the international community still has to speak to the entity that is the palestinian authority. now, on sunday, the posterior authority haven't really issued that many statements, like you say, re admin soul who is the palestinian ambassador united nation. he was speaking um, just before that security council meeting. an unprecedented statement from him squarely blaming the israelis and much stronger language. them, we'd be,
1:16 am
have seen from the palestinian authority saying that this means that our communities effectively facilitated its enabled this occupation to continue. and this is what i'm after doing is a frustration of the, it's the reason that they doing that is because the international community of just simply turned a blind eye to is really aggression. so it's likely that the policy will sort of have a simply just a loud re edmonds sort of put that statement out to date, but they will be close. told me things 0. there will be out of college senior and all sorts of meetings, old levels to try and figure out how they reach out to him as what, what level of price. so they can put on this if they can reach out to international partners as well. the deal, for example, the companies, for example, to try and help them try and bring the situation to control. but right now the policy new. i look forward to understand the sympathy, the support out on the streets of the occupied west by ordinary palestinians. and
1:17 am
they don't want to get involved with that because that simply will make them even more unpopular, perhaps many palestinians, even the wrong con, reporting from the streets of ramallah and the occupied westbank just after 1 am local time. thank you very much and run the us has announced that it is sending additional military assistance to israel, including a stripe force consisting of an aircraft carrier and other military assets in the mediterranean. president joe biden has spoken to his really prime minister benjamin netanyahu reiterating his support by all appropriate means. his secretary of state's also addressed the situation. this is a massive terrorist attack that is gunning down, is rarely civilians in their towns in their homes. and as we seen so graphically, literally dragging people across the board with cars, including a holocaust survivor in a wheelchair, women and children. so you can imagine the impact is just having throughout israel and the world should be revolted and what it seen. we have immediately engaged ours, really partners and uh,
1:18 am
and allies present items on the phone with from the student. and yeah, we're early yesterday to assure him of our full support. i was on the phone with these really present the foreign minister. the entire government has been engaged throughout the region and will be on and there were rallies in the us. let's look at those pictures for a moment, rallies in support of the palestinian people here, the here's the latest, but it's in new york protests as there gathered in times square. they called for washington to end its support res, real and that is in washington dc where there was a rally near the white house. similar events also being planned outside is really con. she lives in atlanta in chicago. here's what some demonstrators have to say. i cannot really learn about the
1:19 am
1:20 am
i just have something not always, especially with the is all right, we're joined by alpha 0 is alan's fisher, alan, a key part of this war and how things might unfold going forward is where the us spends and it's pretty clear that us stands completely behind israel. absolutely. you've got to remember that i'm us was designated a terrorist organization by the united states back in 1997. the old, so no us politician ever failed to get re elected by expressing support for israel . joe biden has been on the phone with the benjamin netanyahu several times over the last 24 hours. he spoke to him again today again committed that he would have unwavering support from the us and the the we continue to give them the supplies
1:21 am
and the military support that they needed bought the to the us as an ice in the last few hours that the 1st part of that military support is already being shipped . it includes munitions and resorts as we are told. and also they are moving a kind of group in closer to israel. so that's a new caf katia and 5 other warships moving there. this has meant to act as a sign of the thames because of impaired from joe biden. he said that none of his israel's enemies should take this opportunity to exploit the coming situation. but also there they are in case there is a need, a no one seeing this at the moment, but if there was a need to start moving as really american citizens away from danger areas, then it's very easy to accommodate them on something like a us, katia, what can you tell us about us diplomatic efforts at the moment, as well as that has been going on and again, by the grace that with benjamin netanyahu. seeing that there had been in tens
1:22 am
diplomatic engagement when with the onto the blinking has spoken in the last $24.00 to his counterparts in saudi arabia. a to talk to you to egypt at, to cut off and also to the president of the palestinian authority, the highest. but a 2nd time spoken to the talk is for administered. the statement was interesting because it said that he in cottage there continued engagement and that's different of the language that we use 24 hours ago when he ards, the talks to get involved and engagement. and we know the talk. he has contacts with some us. so the push from the united states and this stage is to try and get him us to stop the violence as far as the us is getting. so now added to that, there is a report this come out in the last 19 minutes or so from the wall street journal, claiming that a ron was involved in the planning of the how much the tax on saturday. the final go ahead was given a meeting in b route on monday. now both 20 blinking said at this this morning during
1:23 am
a round of interviews on the, on the us political shows that the us had no evidence that there was direct reading involvement. a white house official on saturday told us that they had no indication that a run knew of a specific how i'm us operation. and clearly, if the wall street journal story is true and the all these denials from from the americans at the moment. if it was true that not because a whole different complection on moving economy or group close to, to israel, and by extension close to a ron quite simply because if israel felt that a rotten was behind this, you could almost guarantee that would be retaliatory strikes. and rotten would then perhaps activate some of the support they've got in the area to kind of similar attacks on israel. and so this could blow up to a much wider regional conflict. and the us would be right in the middle of it. so
1:24 am
that explains why that are all these diplomatic maneuvers as well by the americans in the last 24 hours. okay, that means it's something we need to keep a very close eye on alan fisher reporting from washington. thank you very much for all of that. as we mentioned a little earlier, the un security council has met behind closed doors for an emergency meeting to discuss the growing conflict. ria mentor as the palestinian ambassador to the united nations. and he's quoting for his real blockade of gauze at the end, while also deploying the raising civilian desktop. is it a, it keeps saying, the blockade and repeated assault? some guys are to destroy him, us military capabilities and ensure security. clearly an ex and expectedly. it's blockade assaults accomplished. these are the only thing they did accomplish was
1:25 am
inflicting, could have been suffering on an entire civilian population. it is time for an immediate and to the violence and the blood should. and it is time to end this blockade and to open it, put it back on the price. when is it a now tries to justify yet another assault? by the same fault to promise? no one should say or do anything to encourage it down despite we know only to read the messages about is the, is the right to defend itself. would it be interpreted by is that is as licensed to kids or to better so on the very path that led us here. she hubbard, tennessee is covering this at the united nations for us. what's happening today?
1:26 am
she hub at the un, is this a, is this a stop taking? is this a decision making session? what is it that's, i think we'll just stop checking is, is it good for the terminology for this? i saw as we can tell the normal meetings a time for the rest of, of sunday as this was initially proposed as what's called a private meeting. so full, amazing a view and security council at which the israeli and palestinian representatives of the un could take part in this group. others are based on but at the request of security council members, as was turned into it into close consultations, not a full, amazing, uh, view and security council, the only members of the security council and you and officials could attend them. so what we understand happened was that was a briefing from the un special code major for the mid least piece price as about the situation on the ground. but this was also very much an error in your views, either as an adult,
1:27 am
but she loves you from amazon. so you go to go to gauge where everyone else is on the topic. we're told that recalls the escalation because the poor and the use of violence against civilians. there was discussion according to the u. a and boss about proportionality, which i think is going to be a huge issue. as we, as we consider the potential for a major is very ground. defensive inter goes there, but i didn't seem to be any, any decision was taken to any stipends, any statements in the all thing about the need for proportionality. in fact, you can see off to them using 2 very different perspectives on what should happen next. we have the russian ambassador, who said that needs to be an immediate cease fire. apparently, during the meeting, the russian ambassador was saying that this is only the o, this result of years, a failed middle east peace process making by the united states. this is why we're here. we use an immediate cease by weight and immediate return to negotiations,
1:28 am
but the us is very much simply about getting come to a nation of, of how must from as many for many members of the security council as possible. i'm actually due to building what, what, what month. so it just said that in the interest, expressing support for anything is rolled out, does it in, in it's, in its efforts to quotes defend itself as we are very much concerned about the impact of this invasion by him. us of not just on civilians. right. in that immediate area, but in the region, this conflict could grow and we don't want to see that happen. and obviously our thoughts are with all civilians that are hurt. but what we need to focus on is this ongoing terrorist violence being committed by him us, and this cannot be ignored. and it's important. and i'm glad today we heard from a number of council members that this, these attacks should not happen. they need to end and they condemn them. so. okay,
1:29 am
so this closed door meeting now over. are there any next steps planned for you in diplomacy? it doesn't. it doesn't seem that way familiar with you a the best uh it was. it was on the, on the other of us to speak up to the meeting. sort of, you can see the resignation on their face or as he was talking about what she expected that will be many, many more meetings and briefings to come, give them the difference in approach of the russians. and the us, the statement that loaded any resolution would seem to be quite far off. we're told that no one even attempted to introduce any kind of statement that they could, but all the members of the un security council could, could agree upon. so yeah, i think in the, in the was have you a representative got about of the yeah, i think we can expect a lot more than most and many more meetings to come but, but nothing, nothing, nothing to be a virtue the fall and any time soon it would appear, houses 0, she hubbard, tenancy reporting from un headquarters in new york. thank you very much. as
1:30 am
the headlines on the l 0 this hour is really airstrikes or continuing to pound gallons a day after how mos launched an unprecedented military operation from the territory . at least 370 palestinians, including 78 children, have been killed so far with more than 2200 injured. the number of is really, is killed, has surge to at least 700 parts of southern israel remain under attack. is really government has officially declared war handing the prime minister in defense minister extra powers to mobilize military reserves and raising the possibility of a ground invasion of gaza, or rocket fired from guns that has had buildings. and these really city of asco, on many of the rockets have been intercepted by israel's, are in don't, there is widespread damage, but no word yet on any casualties there. at least 5 palestinians have been shot them killed in confrontations with his really forces in the occupied westbank. and
