6:06 pm
the darkest start. because the, the ports with many, uh, many shots uh that were that were targeted directly at the ports. uh, even though there are many families uh uh, slid to the routes. so 10, so people were evacuating some different areas too much different areas, but uh, unfortunately no place is safe anymore. uh, an after uh the, the, um, the couple of the airstrikes that, that were happening at the east of gauze. uh, were the most that were the most hackers have happened in such a a and a fashion neighborhood. and as a tune and also, and she started one and all of these patients have witness. menu must act. must hackers? people have lost their family. so many members, i've seen people crying over their family members trying to understand the state of the state you're living there. are no words so much,
6:07 pm
no matter how much i try to explain or describes new words to deliver this message or the scene that i have witnessed over how much this to end and unbelievable shots that we have seen today. you were at the was generally you were as shown to the hospital literally or what was the scene there? yes, i do have multiple uh addresses coming from different areas of garza that were targeted with tons of people. there are a lot of people, including children who were of injured people who were running after their kids flying over them. one woman was frightening, the, the she has lost her baby was right between her arms. she was crying that i have no idea where he was done. he was right in my arms. people were different, are actually losing their minds. what's happening because make sense of all these
6:08 pm
and presidents and consequences. as i mean, that was a new to giving us the latest from inside gaza. thank you very much. the israeli army says its soldiers are in full control of all communities along the border with gaza. now, bodies are being recovered and several templates close to the border of to how mazda attacked on saturday, and we can speak thousands here is charles trap that who's in the far as in southern israel. charles, a lot of movement for you in the last few hours. tell us what's been happening. let's just bring you up to date as to what's happened in the last hour here. the situation has come somewhat in the last few minutes, but remains tense. and the reason is, is because the road behind me has been blocked by the is right in the middle tray. certainly the any traffic coming this direction is the military. it was about an hour ago. and that was an alert by the ministry saying that that had been an
6:09 pm
infiltration of palestinian fights, is either income for a file which is in this direction or further down this road. now the soldier, these just will tell us, major says in his words that the terrorists have now gone, will be heard in the last 5 minutes or so just before coming on a very heavy machine gun far down this road. so we call confirm whether there was an infiltration warning, it actually shows is of course, the situation here remains so fluid because as you rightly say here, the is really all me today announced that they had taken full control of all the towns in this area. all these very towns and villages in this area that were info try to to buy how much flights as they wouldn't. however, they were afraid that they could well be from us and palestinian gunmen who are in hiding, who was still at large and hiding in the surrounding countryside. so the situation
6:10 pm
here remains very fluid. indeed. earlier today though, we went inside cuz saw as a situation down there, scene of totally reflect, lots and lots of bodies. both had us fighters, palestinian fighters, but lots and lots of variety civilians, the ministry, unable to give us any dest toll as yet. it was still, we understand it still recovering the bodies from the homes in which these, these ladies were killed. a lot of foreign workers, we understand as well. the ministry was saying also kill houses, destroyed the belongings of these uh, the people that live this strewn across these very well manicured loans. it was frankly, a nice place to live in stock control as that goes to the situation in the living conditions just across the border in gauze. what was so fascinating also as well is we've, we've shown this hole in the fence the fence and separates gauze. it from israel,
6:11 pm
runs along the western side of could fall as a huge hole in it. that's where a lot of the, how much flights is came through. we were showing a power of the lighter as well that these right immediately said they destroyed that of how much fight had seemingly used to fly across the border. so yeah, really, it seems indeed still no desk toll in terms of his right and the citizens. and forward and is inside the as of interesting here you though, another settlement is not to fall from head cold. billy that has been a death toll released in terms of b as rating citizens killed in that village. by the age of a military, the ministry saying that a $108.00 is riley killed in that, in that town alone, the town of berry, which amounts to around 10 percent of the population. so yeah, a riff, exceeds a, a very seemingly still fluid situation. a lot of know the soldiers and possibly
6:12 pm
ongoing incidence in the surrounding area. so is there a man hunt under the weight underway then since there were concerns reports of a possible incursion of how most commandos, a mile spider student info traded in southern israel. um, does that mean now that they are going after the that they are most definitely guiding off to them, but they don't know been i've as a sure what you say it's a man, hon. um we've got no numbers a tool. obviously that is not something that the is right, the ministry would release, but as i say, they in that woods are concerned. but they all still have us fighters palestinian government lodge the middle tree yesterday and said that they believe that there was so many holes in the fence that it would not be inconceivable that they would be more info trojans. and as i say, own indications with respect to what happened in the last hour or so he showed.
6:13 pm
ready that that could well be true for charles, i saw you. that's probably where she is because i want to make fun in various things and also trying to punch a quick yeah, sure. foster as you're saying, sure. are we saying that perhaps it is how most spiders who have been instilled, who have been in hiding and israel since they breach that border offense. uh, saturday sunday morning just for are we saying that there are possibly new installations even though is real? yesterday said that they secured that border offense, and they're now in control of it. we say impulsively, both ways saying that yes indeed. that could well be. this is according to the ministry that could well be still homeless, spiked is a lodging. the surrounding countryside that came in on saturday. i need is also a possibility that they're all new infiltration is happening. i mean, i don't you earlier today, for example, there was an infiltration in the town of that kid which is right on the northern
6:14 pm
goals and border they were at least for how much spite is that the is right. the ministry managed to kill the end, but as i say, seems here, it's call now behind me. but the seconds here an hour ago you, you'd find difficult to believe great panic, by the way, the military and as a site of this road behind the load, the ministry vehicle is coming down. it. we understand about 4 kilometers down. it is completely blocked. and as i say, as we came on and there was a lot of heavy machine gun fire that we could hit coming from that direction. how close are you to the gaza strip right now? a well, we have a boat of a boat, a fence that isn't what does it say on the western side of the as all which i suppose from where we're standing is around the kilometer. and that was where the, as i said there's this whole was one of dozens of holes according to the it was right in the middle tray. as you say, it was an announcement yesterday that so these holes have been blocked. but
6:15 pm
the situation remains very fluid in date, and i think that we could be hearing contradictory statements about, for example, infiltration. that wouldn't be surprising any hours in days to come. you know, there is already on we are still struggling to potentially hold times unpublished in the advisors from crossing the border. absolutely, very fast moving story, charles traffic. thank you so much for managing to come up live despite everything you've told us has happened where you are in the last hour will speak to you again . of course, that's charles stratford and far as are in southern israel, about a kilometer away roughly from the gaza. strip, let's talk now to rob reynolds. rob, you're joining us from is a key method also in southern israel, not far from the gauze of border. what can you tell us? let's start with this. what can you tell us about rockets landing on ash go on as well. there is a report that we've, we've heard from is rarely media that the rock as one rocket fired from guys. i hit
6:16 pm
a hotel. it's called the hotel regina in nashville on this. well known among the, the press corps, people here had stayed there a number of times. we're not sure whether the hotel was open and operating and had guests in it. uh uh today, uh, and were waiting for more information about as to whether there were any casualties . but we were witness to this massive garage of rockets which we have seen video of coming out of gauze. uh, a couple of hours ago or, well, i'd say an hour ago actually. um, uh, right about 5 o'clock local time. and we could see in the air the, the anti rocket defenses of the is really iron dome, anti missile system arching through the air. and then striking the incoming
6:17 pm
rockets which were less visible. but as each hit its target in mid air, you can see a puff of smoke that indicated that it had destroyed that that's the incoming rocket. but it certainly indicates that there are additional capabilities that the forces inside gaza have at their disposal. as charles was saying, more infiltration, despite the fact that he is really military, says it sealed up the border barrier and as contained everything in the came uh earlier today. uh, as charles also mentioned, there was a uh see, born attack or infiltration by some, uh, guys, a palestinian fighters who uh, got ashore. but the in were us eliminated by the is really military for killed.
6:18 pm
but you know, again, i think this is shows that the, the, the infiltration, the offensive capabilities, the idea of that loss and other organizations within does a r, hunker down and unable to do anything offensively is wrong. they're still trying as best they can to take the fight through the israelis on is really soil and doing that with missiles and doing that with man. read. what have you seen of the military build of israel has been moving military assets nearer at the gaza. of course they're calling a 300000 reserve is not quite sure where they are in that process. how many they've already been mobilized as we speak of what do you see in terms of that military build up? the 01 of the most, the sort of striking things that that we saw was on the highway between where i
6:19 pm
am now and, and further north there's a, there's a spot where there's a, a military camp. and this is apparently had kind of a intake center for the reserve is coming back on duty. so all along the highway there, there are thousands of cars just parked more or less haphazardly on the, on the verge of the road. and this is where people who were called up men and women of the park. their cars got out, went in reported for duty, and presumably they're, they're, they're in their uniforms now. and then maybe on their way to units on, on the front with, with a ma. so you can also see from this spanish point, a lot of military movement, you can see the tanks being transported, you can see uh humvees and vehicles of that type as well. as jeeps full of israeli soldiers and you can see large trucks uh flatbed
6:20 pm
trucks carrying hundreds, if not thousands of shiny brass colored artillery shells. big ones that are destined to apparently destined to fall on gaza at some points from the uh end of a of a cannon. and you can see tanks in the, in, in the woods and in the open fields. in fact we, we were trying to set up uh to take some pictures of a huge concentration of tanks uh, at a location. not so far from here and were very uh, quickly warned off by is really uh, soldiers arm to told us uh, this is uh, you can't take any pictures here. we don't want anybody to know that we're here. so there's a lot of activity. there are a lot of forces and you know, one thing that i keep thinking about is if these really military moves the bulk of its forces, the gods is to confront what it sees as the threat from,
6:21 pm
from us and other organizations. then that kind of leads less soldiers in the west bank where people are resisting and along the border with loving. and whereas the law is becoming more active, no brain is importing from the key in there. that's in southern israel. thank you very much. you're reporting on the truth build up. i have a question for salt and barca who's joined us in the studio. you are the director of the let me get the title, right, director of the global institute for strategic research at home. i've been felicia university here in doha for you're spending some time and again with us today, and we're thankful for that. you're helping us understand what we're seeing in terms of this true build up israel, moving these military assets, calling up 300000 reserves. this is similar to what we have seen in previous wars, but on a larger scale, what are you noticing about this build up? well, the few things that are interesting to note one is where the servers are coming from. that starts from the smaller issue to the bigger issue. it's also service.
6:22 pm
many of them are from within is uh, but others are coming from as far as new york europe. and so, and that's really well, that's mobilizing plains to flight in the ass and that paints a picture of the nature of the is ready to society and those sentiments. so they all do of nationals that appear in countries are giving them the green card, the green light to fight on behalf of another nation while they hold it or nationality. these are all contradictions that europe and the united states have suffered from in the past. and have acted against when it was in the context of dash, for example. so we have this issue, i think we should keep an eye on that. and it is very interesting because it is also very similar to the situation in ukraine. and now the, to your credit and his role, i've been put in the same scale above a lot of the international. the 2nd is that the whole idea that the not that as well can announce a war practically on itself. i mean, it is now you're buying force in palestine,
6:23 pm
and now we're just taking the lead goes type of announcing a war for formal declaration and the parliament green lit it. yes, i mean out, that's the only purpose of that i think is to give nothing yahoo a free hand. he has managed to now neutralize the public opinion of those varieties . i'm not sure that every is ready. they would agree with the heavy handed force that she's taking on on guys off today. but if you look at what the is really political leaders are doing, they're, they're all behind. i mean, the opposition is joining and netanyahu in the unity government, so they're apparently signing a blank check for him to prosecute this war. while he's using this as an opportunity to twist their hand into a joint government. but i think the physician and men his right he's, we're very much against the right wing the extreme right. it was a that has some home. i just made its way to governments over the last few months. and money is raised will probably be, do not agree with the extreme such,
6:24 pm
there is view and $1.00 of the, such as out of, of the assessments. but now i think all of those voices have been silenced. and he would continue with his with his war and also the timeframe. he's not talking anymore about a few days. i think he will want to extend this state of emergency and his full control on the situation as far as possible until there is a government that he agrees with or he's able to put together based on his choice for a government and is really mean i tell them it is very, i think they will vision is really government that netanyahu feels is in his interest. yes. and to do so. he got yes, a game and i stage to buy them out with them in the $8000000000.00 enough to have a parent comically. and the full out of this will as it every war. that wouldn't be the comic pulled out. but he has managed to get the americans, the american taxpayer to pay for it. and in addition, the munition and they nice states in this way hold on to it because we will get to
6:25 pm
those questions of where the us stands and the international reactions. in general . i want to go to all the hush and dr. alice's here is of the hush and because we are getting reports of rockets that are being fired in uh, 711 on uh the can you hear me? i understand that you're in the course southern level not. yeah, sir. uh well, yes, there, there was a sub zillow is rockets launched here, from the corner up towards the, on the side of the water to watch these really border. and the intercepted by this really on fi messiah system, um, on, on, separate on a brand. so that was the 1st 5 rockets, the 5 or 6 rockets on the sound was huge. and this, this, uh, both the town actually on the quote i is the headquarters for the united nations forces in, in lebanon. now i'm receiving lots of reports now that does it. suspicion also says
6:26 pm
that a rockets were launched towards the occupied ship funds to the east. now, here we are on the we are on the restaurant on liberty to ring, and the other side on the east is on the triangle between lebanon, syria, and this, right? so we're all on the 2 sides. these on to west dod. rockets being launched to watch is where we've saw the gatherings 11 on today. to honor the has the law fighters that were killed as belies position on this as we speak. what sort of this has been going on for the past 3 days? the the how much is that dock was on the 7th of of october on the 8th of october as well. la attacked is ready both send to shut off funds. yesterday, monday, the group from the as long as she had infiltrated into the is ready territories and they engage in the bottle with the is read the army,
6:27 pm
2 of them were killed. then the is very ami retaliated by hitting his beloved positions in southern lebanon. and several 1000 on the board, the on the board as i'm at 3 as well. i'll fight the zip code today. the tree narrows took place and i know why also a soft live i don't on head with feeling now. what's happening here seems to be a kind of a, a contain tension living on is not yet a war zone. however, it's an area of operation. what seems it falls on a space for both sides to exchange messages as well are messaging the 1st day these randy's through rockets setting that we are not going to accept that this well goal is to watch. i mean, they think how much and that there's lot of jihad box, we will stay within the rules of engagement. however, one day is ready with all the law allows because of the end,
6:28 pm
as well as we want in control of the needs board does. so there's not, as you have the group in front rated, but this really is responded and none of the way we will work as well are responsible for any attacks from the news boarders. and that's why these read is hits has will lots of positions in southern defendant has a lot of you thought of the 8th of yesterday by hitting both. but i need an ivy him a box in his room and there was a senior. he is ready a, me, um office a killed and every time the ation. now today we're seeing these, this but i just rockets being launched the from the west and a sector in the quote, i know. so we're, we're hearing reports from the eastern sector and the i should've off that also that off the rockets being like, saw it's gradually escalating situation is getting gradually escalating on this face. things out of control in case both sides out of the table really to,
6:29 pm
to control the results of the docs. because the more we see blog, the more of that is going to be a reason for a strong, gotta tell you ation today. and the few 100 of the principal law support, that's what calling for revenge and has the law would have to revenge because this is what they committed themselves to do whenever they're there to fight those are being killed. all the hushing reporting for us in the 711 on it is 630 local where you are 1530 gmc as we continue to watch, always live the skies over gaza, where there have we've seen multiple strikes in fact. so just since we started this show one just a few minutes ago, let's find out what's happening in jerusalem is really opposition leader, i think, door lieberman is calls to the total elimination of how mos in a post on x, formerly known as twitter. again, the live footage there over gaza. he says that means getting rid of how mazda is
6:30 pm
leadership in the gaza strip. 11 on, and malaysia also include tar. that's his tweet. wherever he claims they are hiding for the marks is live for us from the west. ridgeland, previous up to date on the latest from the is really government and from the is really prime minister himself benjamin netanyahu village of the serial. this is all about trying to form a unified emergency government, something that mister netanyahu and his public address to his res, last night said, was very important for the, for seal of this ministry campaign over the coming weeks. in terms of where we stand with that potential unified government, don't forget, he has a very narrow majority in 5 years, ready fall him and he relies for his governing power on to far right. policies and the leaders of those 2 policies have very important cabinet roles inside his government. some of the political policies opposed to mr. nothing yahoo!
6:31 pm
those led by man. like, yeah, let's see the former defense minister, many camps as well as of a go lieberman, who you just mentioned. they have all the rest of the said they would be willing to serve intern about the government, given the gravity of the situation here, facing israel citizens. but they have laid out some preconditions in the case of it and leave them. and he would like to make so any of the government, how does it go to destruction? of a mass insights policy, mr. guns. mr. the thieves saying that they would serve and the most and the government for representative the saying this at least is some of those far right. members in the current cabinet, well in tati shots, out of military and security related decision making, that may not be something those current bar right cabinet members can stomach. it may make it incredibly difficult for mr. met some yahoo to keep them on board and maintain the government, dorothy farrell. and this is where it gets complicated because long term for his
6:32 pm
political survival, he will need the support in parliament. but in order to face this ground spot of public pressure to form this emergency unified government, he may need to reach out to form allies now. but it's gonna finance villain is, are all these political negotiations that you've just described? are they holding up any of the military preparations? because we were saying just moments ago, israel's moving military assets towards gauze. of course they've called up these 300000 reserve as they are preparing apparently something big. that is all that kind of happening in parallel to the political negotiations, or will netanyahu only know what he's really able to do once he's fix that from his point of view. it's inferior. are you going to be about his list for room for the new but it's all very well cooling up hundreds of thousands of years of us and making sure that you have them in positions way you may want to use them. but in terms of the long term instruction,
6:33 pm
particularly when it comes to what they're going to do inside goals, or what are they to involve infantry troops and in a ground in college. and that may be something for what she would like to see rolled up. so let's go cover from looking at that to make sure that he's operating in such a way that if things don't turn out to be well for his ready forces, he can turn to the public and say, look, i did this with the backing of my political opponents, this was not just me, i see on my end, don't forget. so he's facing huge amounts of criticism for these colossal intelligence and ministry phase. but let's be events on saturday, billing mark, supporting from west to respond. thank you very much on the politics that are at place even as benjamin netanyahu is drawing up plans along with his military leaders. what we're staying in is real. we want to tell you about the families. it is real that have gathered to try and identify the bodies of those were killed in a mazda is attack. so a high right reports, as we've actually just seeing what we think is a senior cabinet minister,
6:34 pm
go pulse and black out cause it will start seeing some seniors riley, military officials ever arrived to this building just behind me. i'm going to step how this building here is uh, effectively the, all me building where they deal with a casualties uh from the police oh, military personnel. of course, because the system has been so overwhelmed for the one that deals with civilians, intel aviv. this has become the central come ons building for the city inside. so you might just see that building over there with flashing lights. that seems to be a senior minutes. so we're not quite sure who boxes yet, but there's a lots of movements coming in and out of this building refinancing ambulance is turning up in large numbers. we will. so we counted about $87.00 to $8.00. so if there's in about 14 minutes of us 1st arriving here, we've also seen,
6:35 pm
if you see just send that distance, the attendance been set top not 10 is full family members coming here to see if anyone they have last is on a list list that's been put together for those that have been identified as ready for these are insides, a more tree inside this building here. we've also been seeing lots of trucks that have been coming in big articulates of trucks with bodies. we spoke to someone who's been an official pass, and that's told us that the number of bodies and power is often the reason for using these trucks is the ambulances comp deal with a number of bodies without bringing over from the southern parts of israel. the borders with gauze, but also they've told us the inside that building behind me isn't just as riley soldiers and civilians. there are also palestinian sciences of identified are
6:36 pm
roughly around a 100 of them in this building. and the european parliament is debating developments in israel and palestine. this comes a day after confusion over whether the e you would suspend a 2 palestinians or not european commission. if you're to back pedal on its earlier announcement that it would stop payments. this off to several member states protested more for more on this. let's go to natasha butler, who is in paris. natasha what's? what's the debates going to be like, get this uh, your pin. foreign ministers needed to be a use made up of 27 member states. and as you can imagine, it's very difficult to find consensus ease, even if that's what those member states are and to do, they're always going to be deficient. what they doing is i talking about european union financials and monetary and a to the palestinian territories. because on monday there was some confusion about
6:37 pm
whether the aid would continue to the commissioner. see, you said that the age of being suspended for the students. i meant to say, complained about that said, you call and say, unilateral decisions in that way. so that's why foreign ministers today or discussing, i'm reviewing, they say the situation with the use of financial humanitarian aid to the palestinian territories. now i think most are agreed that you monetary and i will continue for what the other types of age will continue. that remains to be seen. so things like full development. so a that goes to the 5 single $4.00 to pay a civil surface. what some states meant to states are concerned about is that some of that money seen in directly going to come awesome nail worried that how much does use that money in when to carry that those attacks against israel, so full. so they want to make sure that that's not the case and they want to prevent any future money in this to be sent to hand right now as we speak,
6:38 pm
is the aides suspended or is the and continuing? are they still sending money or whatever form the aid was taking to the palestinian authority? i think it's probably very complex and they told me they really knows that according to the foreign policy chief as far as we understand, he was saying that they were no uh shed your payments right now. so i think as we. 8 now we're in a bridge for jeff any way there was any payments necessarily on his way as far as we know. so she might have terry and aid. we'll continue. all the sorts of age may be suspended in the future or may not be. countries like australia and germany have suspended the national aid that they send to palestinian territories. but we know countries like from spain, on the lots of the, a very much saying whatever happens is you mount a certain situations must be a priority, and palestinians must receive a at such
6:39 pm
a difficult time. but as i said in the european union, they're always provisions as consensus as a whole to find it so many member states will have to see what comes out of that meeting is certainly an opportunity for them to review the situation. all right, natasha butler. thank you. very much for that reporting from paris. i want to get the perspective of james moran who's joining us from brussels know you're a former a you and bassett, or to egypt, jordan and young men. so it's so good to bring you back on the show because you would have some you would, you weren't inside or, and you would have great insights on to what might be into what might be happening . now. what do you think of the conversation that's been taking place in full view of the public within the u. member states over the last 24 hours. i mean, we had any you commissioner or spokes person sending you commissioner saying we're stopping all the aid and then several countries clearly and disagreement. major disagreement with that. and now they're saying actually for the moment it's, it's continuing or yeah, it's really unfortunate. uh, it's
6:40 pm
a lot of confusion at the moment now. cool us by the tragic events going on local sitting now guys a desert right now. and it doesn't bode well for the discussion that the minutes is having right now in the mountains and having it on on mom, you're getting 5 minutes. i think the, we have a welding argument against it is going to be made suddenly by many of the member states against the suspension or whatever. right? it is. by doing that, you are penalizing many, many about us. it is a knowledge to do with the facts on a digital, empowering how much which itself is going to be able to say, look, here, you see all the rest of the support is needed. and so i'm so sorry. i think there's going to be a very, very strong push back about as a new proposal at the u level about so the end of it is provided through the european union budget. we'll see what happens in the meeting conditioner in about
6:41 pm
an hour or so. but i think there are strong arguments against it doesn't make any sense in your countries. don't want the aid to go to. i'm us now to be very clear to our viewers. the a you consider is a mazda terrace organization. so they were never sending a directly to them. but the, the, the concern in some parts of the e. u, is that perhaps the aid that they're sending to the palestinian authority perhaps trickles down that concern has been expressed. do you think that concern is valid or no, i don't, and i think that they're open not very strong safeguards in place. i mean, you guys know about how are you a is administered tons of spanish in palestine, whether it be in the west bank or whether it be in gaza when it comes to developing the items. all the firewalls and the number of uh, restrictions uh on the uh, dispersed into that a um, that was already in place. um whether or not uh, new uh, restrictions over 5. well, we'll see about, but the time be, i think it's,
6:42 pm
it's pretty clear that the, the way that is provided goes primarily through the power setting, a star g for the benefit of sitting people in this time. is this conversation within the in you about a to the palestinians? is that just perhaps the tip of the iceberg? that shows some pretty deep divisions within the member states, just about their, their political stance on the israel garza or yeah, it does to some extent, separate like that. there are a, there are different positions. i mean, you'd see especially a little street uh, hungry and one or 2 others to take an extremely strong pro is rarely positions and the very one sided and what they're about to say. there are others, and i think they are the majority. who would prefer to continue the traditional even approach at the us over the years? and i think that going to prevail at this meeting. even if you may see an
6:43 pm
announcement about some review or some reconsideration of the site guns that i mentioned before the place. but i suspect that they will prevail to do otherwise, will marginalize the you and indeed the palestinian authority to any extent when any prospect for a future peace negotiations. uh is even uh, even demo that it is at the moment. uh, jameson, ron, former new and bassett. or thank you very much for joining us on the show. with that very interesting perspective. you were you invested with the egypt, jordan and yemen. thank you. let's go live to kimberly, how can our white house correspondent in washington, kimberly just a reminder to our viewers that we are watching this guys over guys a it is now just before 7 pm local time, so it's getting dark as every day around this time we're seeing a little bit less right now. things are calm, but we do keep a very close watch on what's going on there. kimberly, as we do that,
6:44 pm
bring us up to speed on the latest major developments in the us as well. what we are waiting is the statement by president joe biden, to the american public. we know that the us president has been spending since the attack by how much on israel uh, quite a bit of time with his national security team. we know that there has been almost a year round the clock, a consultation and updates not only with the national security team, but also consultations with world leaders. we know he has made a roughly 2 dozen phone calls briefings meetings, really, since this was a conflict the rock did. and what this president has been dealing with is really responding in real time. it's really become kind of the largest foreign policy test of his presidency. and so what we expect the us president to say is that he will be
6:45 pm
standing shoulder to shoulder with be is really government is it responds, we expect that he will once again, as we have seen, the body in the business for it straight should have recent days condemning what the united states calls evil acts and also saying that there is never any place for terrorism and the united states as opposed to it. and all forms we expect to the use president will also go on to say that the best past path forward to resolving the ongoing conflict between israel and the palestinians is the 2 state solution. and this should be resolved through dialogue. now, we should also point out in the midst of all of this, but the united states has a commitment to israel in terms of security assistance. and that is annually about $3800000000.00. but we know that israel has asked for more, and we don't know exactly what that is in terms of in dollar amount. the united states has been big about that,
6:46 pm
but we have spoken to the national security spokesperson, john kirby. he has confirmed to alex to 0 is that there are additional munitions as well as interceptor miss files that are being sent to israel imminently and but they are expected to be arriving at any time. so we do know that that is underway as well. we do know that there is a freight carrier group that is being positioned to the eastern mediterranean because big concern for the united states right now is this could broadened out into a wide or regional conflict which is 0 is white house correspondent, kimberly how could thank you very much for that update less than a minute ago. our viewers will of seeing that flash of lights from our live shot. that's a the latest strike in gaza. you can still see, yeah, you can still see the light there on the, on the horizon less than a minute ago. there. now we're want to go back to 11 on because we are seeing explosions near the israel border there. oh the hush i'm you're in the cora. we
6:47 pm
just got this information of. i'm not sure if it's explosions. rockets fired. what are you hearing? it was a series of the few rockets launched from 11 onto watch is running the intercepted light is really on team. if our system, what a few minutes ago, we started hearing explosions. i don't know if i were coming to mind why is could show us on the top of the hello. this is i'm board the line between 11 on and as well. so actually we don't know, this is on the east side, all these ready side to the huge files over there. and every few minutes there's an explosion that we hear. so the picture from the, it seems, it seems the very, very big fires data. now we don't know if this is a result of these where the opportunity had things deliver in these territories audits. maybe a the wrong,
6:48 pm
some of the rockets that's what launched fell data. so it's, it's good to attend the moment on clear. however, as you can see, the picture it's, it's going uh, a huge amount of, of a open line, the agriculture line trees. just like yesterday the same thing was happening yesterday. um to watch uh this, the town off of the handle which is to the east from the hood. all that we all. and it's the area where the infiltration took place yesterday is varies. 2 hey, think open areas in order to deny the fight does any calls uh, when they're trying to infiltrate? um, so this could be the same situation, especially that there was some reports. however, they're not confirmed before those enough time for infiltration to watch. the settlement of tional me that's just behind this mountain. right. aus is here as early as i'm reporting there from the area. the living on the is really board are thank you very much. i of israel has been the rasa crossing on. does
6:49 pm
a southern border for a 2nd time. now this is the only formal exit point from garza into egypt. the other 2 passageways are also closed off and that includes the car um we sell them commercial crossing. and rez north of gaza, which is under full, is really control. hundreds of palestinians were preparing to flee to egypt, but the crossing was closed earlier on tuesday side. so there is a professor of political sociology at the american university in cairo. and he says, egypt is worried about the regional impact of the conflict agent is very concerned about this is coalition because a lot of talk about the last few years about the great deal of the essentially that the move that people off goes to sign on. that's what this has been a long and usually you're also concerned that this volume as a big space, a live tv. we might have to go in all of this. the stomach was and we can see
6:50 pm
more incentives like that. we have seen up to the is that one that example? yeah, we're not police songs, a policeman opened fire on that is where you choose to do a lot of concern. there's also concern tension in that and this area may affect the egyptian gaz. explore the 2 is my 6 to which use of got this year almost been a $1000.00 and biggest more. but now with this is calisha effect. it's national, the budget is which is when you're suffering from a lot of things. the also here that it, it can you play a big vision of live up? maybe it has belonging to you long, you know, things can go up, but you know, beyond anybody's going towards so very scared all this kind of is calisha. ok. i want to welcome back in so to embark outs, who was joining us in our studio?
6:51 pm
you're the director of the global institute for strategic research at home. i've been felicia university here in doha. the roof of crossing is the only way out of gaza. so why would is real from that crossing or the sending mixed signals. and here yesterday, one of the generals made the recommendation to the policy knows, or we'd like to escape the, the attack on guys to make their way towards draft and to cross into egypt. today i suppose they're going to do that. it's going to have to be through russell. it has to be through a rough idea. but actually when, when, when the situation deteriorates, people just cross from everywhere. and it's not going to, they're not going to ask you to take a permission to cross into egypt, or i'll find the one that they bond is the actual official point of crossing. and this is just to make things awkward to those who are now in future leave. most it will be on medical basis. and this has been the case for years. the age of the does
6:52 pm
that egypt connections or rather, is not the operating normally on day to day basis. ever since the change of government to the in egypt or the ccr arriving to power, that has been major change and destroyed the whole boundary boundary areas of roughly $22.00 guys. on the gyptian side, they flooded the tunnels. they closed a lot of those holes that existed in the past for smuggling. and as such, there's only one controlled area which is mostly used for medical needs as we continue to watch the, the skies over gaza. and the screen top right for of your screen for of yours is clearly the boats that were struck by is really an air raids in gaza harbor. going back to the, the question of egypt, there were trucks carrying humanitarian goods that were waiting on the egyptian
6:53 pm
side of the border right. waiting for possibly a window of opportunity to move into gaza to carry the humanitarian goods as a result of best bombing those trucks. have to be moved back, the bombing was closed. is it possible that israel was also intentionally cutting off that access point for a few minutes or it could be because they did the warrant yesterday that they won't allow for whatever other interesting to the strip. so that could be another objective of doing totals egypt, and if that is the case as a major, a crime, as far as international law is concerned, you should not obstruct any humanitarian supplies coming into a conflict the ideal like this. all right, so don't stay with us. 3 palestinian during this have been killed in is really airstrikes on a residential building and west and gaza. others are reportedly injured according to the government information office 7 palestinian journalists have been killed since the beginning of the is really military offensive on the gaza strip. and
6:54 pm
protests are happening in ramallah in the occupied westbank. residents are protesting against the killings of during listen, gaza did abraham, it is live in ramallah. what can you tell us in it? a well officer, a process that has been carried out by palestinian during and it does say that they're not being safe telling their story to the world. now we're seeing another process in support of the city of the district. they're talking about the times basically talking about the international report person. they say that the when palestinians are being killed by the deluxe, them under violence is really me the 3 occupation for decades. the world say sided, but now it's higher because it's really been killed. these are the sentiments here. remember, these passages have been living under decades long preoccupation, and as we speak now here in new york, you probably drift back the,
6:55 pm
the 3rd basically mice. so nathan, kind of send you cities from one another. so even if people want to move to see their families, it's really located. there's also tension. there's also a fee or here they believes that these sentiments that are being hop happening now and the occupied with like remind them all seen in the 2nd palestinian as they called the in the early 2 thousands. when israel basically invaded the, occupies westbank and food. the car fuse losers. so as you can imagine, there's a lot of fear. there is a little extension, but people here say that they believe that the only language as well as the sands is for. they feel that they've been let down by the international community. so here, this time, some of this that have mass fights, this, these spanish and is, are say that they need to fight back against israel military occupation. but there's a lot of fear, a lot of concerns about the lives of palestinians in gaza. a little politically. i
6:56 pm
wonder if this war is undermining the palestinian authority as with so many other awards happening in the end that that happened in the besieged cause the strip palestinians shift their supports to him off to anyone whose activity of holding weapons and fighting israel's occupation. and as a result, the palestinian authority has already been weakened by as well becomes weaker when it comes to its popularity. so we are seeing now award that we are seeing even worse uh, results off. we're seeing more use of the some force by these really forces. so you can imagine that the support for the promise to be in the forward the is going to be declining more and more because of all of its lives to boston. in the part that has been talking about finding a way through negotiations. and people here say those negotiations,
6:57 pm
let them know where the continuation of the is read the occupation. so basically they're saying that the industry is the only way i knew to abraham their reporting live around 0 in ramallah in the occupied westbank. thank you very much. and you're looking at the live shot of the skies over guys that were just in the last few hour when the last hour. beg your pardon. we witnessed multiple strikes on buildings in gaza. i'm going to leave you with pictures coming out of gauze in israel, over the past few days to stay with us. we're back in the top of you, of the, the,
6:58 pm
6:59 pm
7:00 pm
the houses in your under comfort reporting. exclusive stories explosive results, which is 0 investigations the the scenes of devastation in gaza as is really airstrikes hit the port. at least 830 palestinians have been killed since saturday. the several venue is good to have you with us. this is elsa 0 lives from doha, with our continuing special coverage of the guns. the israel war also coming up
