7:05 pm
the region, we're in ash dot in southern israel, where we will be covering israel's troop movements will have is really political reaction from west jerusalem 1st. so let's go to the topic. i was zoom in gaza at topic over the last hour that i've been watching a live shot of this guys of the guys that we see multiple strikes one, however, and we still have the shot of that is the asked the math. this is what i'm looking at right now. the aftermath of a strike on boats that were docked in the, in a ports along the gauze. a coastline. do you know what was hit and why as well the is very bombardment of the gaza strip, did not stop since today's morning. today, a lady is rarely a forces had formed the goals was checked with more than 50 strikes, destroying a doses of residential houses, desk drill, factories and public infrastructure. according to the power send,
7:06 pm
you administered hilton site. the goal is to stripe the death, told has wrongs and to more than $800.00. and so it's the policy of skilled with more than 2 of the 34008250 others wounded obviously is the is valley air forces are using exceeds to paula and force against targeting palestinians. inside the gaza strip. now officer displaces where hits by the is body of forces. we made a quick look and visit to these places. these places have turned into ashes. england's destroy, which reflects the level of destruction and the level of the severity that happens in that place. now in retaliation to the is really a tax on the goals are strict, but during this day the palestinian militant groups fired hundreds of rocket stars because really settlements now the majority of targets that had been strong struck inside the gaza strip, where residential ounces and the majority of even casualties among young kids
7:07 pm
and women. also a human, a cherry lee of the situation of the gaza strip is distorted. rates are for the international and the world because as you speak, we are not watching the live pictures of the skies over garza and i am not entirely sure of what i'm seeing in the sense that i don't know if the, if the rockets that i'm seeing or incoming or outgoing it? i would surmise, you know, the layers are rocky fired. all right guys there. can you see or hear anything, you know in the place that i'm covering from. i can't see, you know, kind of uh, let's say you fire ratings or even bombardments. i can only hear the voice. i don't, i cannot really see what i'll tell you. tell me something, right, cuz we're coming little bit clearer. it appears to be rockets that are outgoing meeting fired from guys a, a quite a number of them appear to be intercepted. uh that would be by israel's,
7:08 pm
are in the defensive system. so my question would be, how much is still in a position to launch rockets from the gaza strip as we speak? is that correct? as well. uh, the minutes and the group. how mazda, sorry, the gaza strip continues to fire rockets from time to time toes because very settlement and retaliation to the attacks that happens inside the gaza strip. as everyone sort of tend to use that to the situation. and the places inside the gaza strip were heavily bombarded and even the level of destruction that took place in gauze or stripe is absolutely high. i'm just kind of destruction of palestinians had a witness. us were out the last on the previous confrontations between both pop both bars according to the human to train condition inside the goal is this trip protest thing is now all living without enough, a clean water sources and without enough,
7:09 pm
even food supplies inside the gaza strip it accordingly, the international uh, the world health organization goals for opening humanitarian corridors in order to send medical supplies and the humanitarian aids to the gaza strip in order to help the people of kansas and tell her a couple of whom affording life from inside gaza. for us as we continue to watch the, the skies over the gaza strip. let's go to mohammed jams. you mohammed, you are joining us live from came and southern israel. it's not far from the guns a border. now. we just saw what appeared, what appeared to be rockets fired from gaza and fear a few of them being shot down by israel's iron don't system. i don't know exactly if you are in the if you're near where that happened. can you tell us anything about the the rockets being fired from gaza? yes, sir, let me tell you where, where are where in an area called z came junction which is outside of the key. now
7:10 pm
behind me that direction, that's gaza. we're about 3 kilometers north of gaza. yes. and in just the past few minutes, we saw several rockets launched from gaza intercepted by the iron dome missile defense system. so we saw lots of flashes of light in the sky. we heard lots of booms, lots of floods, the iron dome system certainly activated. we are trying to get information about if any of those rockets that were launched from gaza landed anywhere in the area next to us. we are also about 5 kilometers north of our school. and i mentioned that because just about 2 hours ago, you had a massive garage of rockets launched from gaza towards us. go on and what we've heard from us, the word he's here is it, at least one of those rockets launched from guys a did fit inside as kwan that it hit a building there there, there was at least one woman injured as a result of that rocket attack now asked go on, had actually been warned earlier in the day by how much, how much putting out a statement telling citizens and residents and ask them on to evacuate by 5 o'clock
7:11 pm
when they intended to attack us. go on. we are right now trying to figure out if there been any injuries as a result of that last rocket barrage. but yes, you asked if we were in a position where we witnessed that. we certainly did the situation here, got a lot more tense in the last 10 minutes over the course of the last couple of hours . you've had several occasions when the folks assembled here have actually seen those rockets launching from guys and being intercepted most of them at least by the iron dome defense system. but there are heavy is really residents of that came stayed because the area around gaza was supposed to be evacuated. i don't know whether is it came, was in that area. have most residents decided to stay as well. let me tell you 0 is that as far as is, it came earlier today there was an incident where in fact, there were at least for how much fighters we're told that infiltrated into the team or tried to infiltrate into the team by sea. and that they were killed by is really
7:12 pm
army officers. now, as far as the situation insides, the team we have tried getting inside the team, we have not been able to security, won't let people in there. the situation, as you can imagine, close to the board with gaza, still very fluid, still very tense because you have these reports throughout the day. there are towns that are a village, is that the is really army is still trying to evacuate, even though they say they have gotten full control of this border region. once again, they have also said that they are still having clashes with members of how much with government who have either infiltrated prior to now those towns and have hit out, or they are still possibly infiltrating from gaza into those towns. so there's a lot of contradictory information right now. still as to regards the evacuation, i can tell you we are still seeing huge amounts of troops and military equipment being transported from northern areas to the south. every time we're on the highways here, the roads, we see more soldiers, we see more infantry, men and women. we see more reserve troops, we see more military equipment being transported. so the mobilization is still very
7:13 pm
much ongoing. and that's why when you do talk to residents in these areas, they are still shocked. they are still traumatized. they do believe that a ground invasion into gaza will occur, potentially at any time 0. and when we were watching those walk as being 5 moments ago, mostly you would see the, the arc with the country, all of the rocket, right. and then you would see a bang and which is the intersection by the ein, don't do. most of the rockets get intercepted it's it's hard to know 0, it looks from our vantage point. then again, we can have accurate precision when it comes to what we're seeing from here. we await more confirmation from the israeli army. we wait to get information for more sources. it looks to us as though most of it was rock is that we're launched were intercepted right now, though it is dark, it is harder to tell exactly when it comes to the rockets that are coming out of gaza. how many are coming out? but it looked like there were at least at least $10.00 to $12.00 in the last few
7:14 pm
minutes. and it did look to us from our vantage point. as though most of those rockets had been intercepted by the iron door missile defense system. that being said though, the people here because this continues to happen, even though there is mobilization, even though the situation is very tense, the people here do believe that in the hours to come, there will be more of a barrage of rocket fire. so people here very worried, very concerned um and they do expect that at any moment they would have to dock and take cover as we did here. when we 1st started seeing those rockets come out and 1st started hearing the booms and started to see how the iron dump defense system was intercepting those rockets nonetheless. um, we will continue to bring you those developments and more details as we confirm the 0 houses here. as mom is on assume reporting from isn't keen there. that's in southern israel. you're about, as you said, 3 kilometers away from the north of the gaza strip. thank you very much. mohammed i want to bring in, so to america, or it was your, with this in doha, this afternoon,
7:15 pm
this evening. we thank you for that. you are the director of the global institute for strategic research at home. i've been felicia university here and the one thing is notable about this and i'm wondering if you could speak to this before of yours . israel says that it has been carrying out its most intense bombardment of gaza ever yesterday. i remember you telling me that they have precise knowledge of what's happening in the gaza strip. that is really intelligence. they've mapped out, you know, every square meter, i think i'm paraphrasing what you were saying. yeah. of the gaza strip. yet clearly for days into this, i'm us is still in a position to cat to launch volleys of rockets regularly into is really territory. yes. well, i think we, we need to put those rockets into context and i think causing them rockets is, is, i'm just not ready to have him that these are project titles with home made explosives and, and to various degrees. they're not. if you look at the amount of damage or
7:16 pm
casualties they've caused over the last few days, others of them resulted with very little damage compared to a very life machine gun with a couple of people in the buildings. i've seen some buildings to face. i've seen the entire sections of buildings crumbled to the floor and secondly, those rockets, if they can reach tel aviv or even jerusalem. i mean what, what does are sophisticated or not? doesn't change the fact that they can go far and inflict damage, they can effect. but it's nothing like what is where it is, is capable of inflicting on, on gaza, or the modern munition. and that is sophisticated the stuff that's been provided by the united states. this is this, i don't know if it is based on home a home made a very basic explosives. i think my question is more about the challenge for the is really military that is currently trying to target those rocket launching spots. and we see war after war after war in the gaza strip. it is very difficult for them
7:17 pm
to get to to, to those rocket launching spots. yeah, well this is the point we're coming to is that because of the nature of, of those stroke is they're very light and immobile. and the, the resistance is capable of, of moving them from one side to, to another very, very quickly with, by the light equipment. and that, that's makes it much more difficult for those riley's to follow where the rocket has been launched launch from. in addition to that, i think, uh, as well as some of the, in terms of its intelligence within the gaza strip. in the past they used to be able to penetrate individuals. they have their own intelligence, the actors within the strip. and i think over the farmers within form is within, within guys, and this is why they were very uh they were capable of assessing that teen individuals in the past. and so i think over the last few years, this has been tackled by how mass effectively. and as i use, we're left with,
7:18 pm
with a few supporters. and, and the fact that the, when you say, tackled by, i'm us. i mean we, i, i report years ago seeing those pictures it from us killing gardens, whom they suspected of being informants for israel. some of that does take place. yes. and they have the, they have killed some and so on. but most mostly i think of the population of, for within the gaza strip has really been told to the native by days radius the continuous siege on guys a has made it very, very difficult for anyone to stand up and say, well, i may try and understand the position depends right on this, and this has been going on for many, many years. all right, so tom, thank you very much. stay with us. israel says it is re taking control of the guns, a border, and mobilized troops in the area. so far, the military has cold, of $300000.00 reserve is, is really all position leader attic door lieberman has called for the total
7:19 pm
elimination of hamas and a post on x, formerly known as twitter. he says that means getting rid of the groups, leadership in the gaza strip 11 on and malaysia also in tar wherever they are hiding. and the quote is good to hold up though. i mean it was in west jerusalem. hold on. what can you tell us about the political landscape right now, which is rapidly changing? and israel is indeed moving at this stage from minnesota. danielle, who has been given the green light by his coalition to try to form this sort of emergency unity government. he should be talking of having more negotiate with benny, against which he, with his most formidable low pointed to it has been at least for the last few years . but we're not there yet. what is actually happening now? and i'm sorry for that is that the prime minister and the cabinet should be shortly meeting with the security and military establishment. they call that the political
7:20 pm
security cabinet. and from what we understand, they will be discussing the military plans ahead. whether that isn't ground invasion, when is that ground invasion? but i think there was a very pro q 5 about the whole fixture, not only about the board, this with the guys that they worried about the border in the north. it's 11th, sorry, and they also a good. another challenge with them is to make sure that the occupied westbank has been really tens of ever since the beginning of the year. it just stays some sort of under control. and indeed here in jerusalem, where they had been tensions around l. axa most compound in the days leading before at all, this started. so certainly a lot for the prime minister in his cabinet to discuss with the sick and security establishment about the way forward. as you mentioned, 300000 reserves have been it's
7:21 pm
a sofa cold. they have been spread around military bases over the country. not only along the guides, the border of the government says that actually they could call up to 300 is 60000 . so another 60000 could show up very soon, but i think they are calculating very closely what should be the next step. we heard the rest of the very, very harsh for us and we toward guys a warning the people of gaza a very difficult times ahead telling the people of guys to leave. so that gives you an idea of the frame of mind, of all these people when they're meeting in the next hour or so, and how to told would be. but certainly there is a need for the government and the ministry to show that they going to have a host response, harsher than what is happening now. because that's what b is really public, is looking for and is demanding at this point. and they're going to have to show
7:22 pm
that they can probably finish this as soon as possible. how do i wonder if we know whether this a, the political negotiations that are going on right now? if they're slowing down, the military preparations in the military planning or not the well, i mean you do have that little that was approved. that would allow the, the cabinet, the, the prime minister and the defense minister to go ahead then to take decisions without consulting the rest of the cabinet. so that is already in place that is already functioning. and i think that is an understanding that things need to happen as quick as possible. i think part of the unity government or this emergency government is 2 falls at one point is to show that this is a united country because if we just go back to a week ago, before all this started, this was a deeply divided country you had for 1338 week straight. we're
7:23 pm
a protest every saturday against a pregnant is to meet that now and is currently student government i guess, did your district overall, but all of that has disappeared at this time. on the other hand, you have also, the prime minister, who knows is going to come and load. the fittest is once the dust settles, who needs to have some political cover about what's going to happen in the days ahead. you don't, he is real, can not know what could unfold, what kind of retaliation, how much could have, what's that happened on the board with lebanon? what would be the reaction into why the ira will? so i think also 5 minutes into them. you know, we'd want to want ones that government so you get emergency government. so you can also have some political cover. say no, everybody decided even my political opponents were on board with every decision. i took the bill, i made a reporting from west jerusalem. thank you very much and just moments ago you will have seen another flash over the skies of gaza. we continue to monitor that the is
7:24 pm
really army, says its soldiers, or in full control of our communities along the border with gauze, bodies being recovered and several keyboards close to the border. this is after how mazda is surprise attack on saturday. sarah, hi, ross is in rome. low where families have gathered to identify the bodies of those killed and homeless is attack. i was actually just seeing what we think is a senior cabinet. minnesota go. paul sim got to talk cause we will start seeing some seniors really minute tree officials ever arrived to this building just behind me. i'm going to step how this building here is effectively the all me building where they deal with a casualties of from the police. oh, ministry personnel, of course because the system has been so overwhelmed for the one that deals with civilians in tel aviv. this has become the central come on building for the city in
7:25 pm
fact. 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 that's is yet, but there's a lot of movements coming in and out of this building. refinancing on. balance is turning up in large numbers. we will. so are we counted about $87.00 to $8.00 of those in about 40 minutes of us 1st arriving here. 5 we've also seen um, if you see just send that distance, the attendance spins desktop. i'm not tense is full family members coming here to see if anyone they have last is on a list. a list has 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 city lights and trucks with bodies we spoke to someone who's been an official pass and that's told us that the
7:26 pm
number of bodies and powers 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 his route at borders with gauze. but don't so they've told us that in so i thought building behind me isn't just as riley soldiers and civilians. there are also palestinian sciences. they've always done to slide around roughly around a hundreds of them in this building a following up on that with the so time barrack that you were making the point to me as we were listening to, sorry, that driving this is the pain and the outrage caused on both sides by the very high number of civilian casualties. yes. and i, i think it's a, it's very regrettable and it will be very difficult for anyone to condone beginning of civilians in this context. i suspect to even for from us as the dust settled,
7:27 pm
they would be asking themselves the question whether they could have achieved the objectives without actually going into the civilian areas. would they have been able to hurt as well simply by capturing the security check points, district security points and the bases that they entered 1st was it's really necessary to go into those surrounding areas and not. it could be a conversation within the ranks of, of, of home us i'm us is military wing at some point on i they go too far. you think that was my thing so i, i suspect that they were really surprised. i don't think they were, these were a pre determined attacks and particularly the business of the music festival. i mean, they would have never predicted that there was that music festival at this particular time. the nature of the situation known. and what is really, i mean, fairly easy to, to have been cut off from israel for a long, long time. the last person who would have worked in israel lived in guys that would
7:28 pm
have gone back to 2005. and this is, this is an area that's totally unknown to the people from inside. and given the, the image of technology, the access to technology, they have the surveillance equipment this on. i suspect they were really, really cold in to the moment as they, as they broke away from, from, doesn't, fitness on the bodies were recovered. so they killed, at least to ask you guys, you know, what we try to think of all goes yes, i suspect where they would be asking how's questions whether this was absolutely necessary or not in the end, the answer would be not because they could have really hurt as well by concentrating on those military bases, which is on it. someone is a great waiting for them. the same applies to those who, who are right now to who broke through the fences. if you recall the images that came out on, if you had guns and where writing much of the most commandos that infiltrated israel gas and there were hundreds, hundreds of young kids who, who simply where i'm excited about the possibility of breaking through the fence.
7:29 pm
and i suspect a lot of those that israel has killed. now of those young kids who will make time will tell them that they're talking about having more than 1500 and palestinians in the who have across from, from guys a. i dialed the how much had that capability in terms of trained in individuals. so thank you very much. standby, we're going to go live to kimberly how it get our white house correspondent in washington dc. kimberly m i a my correct? do i have this right? that the u. s. president joe biden will be speaking pretty soon. i so yeah, that's right. we are expecting a imminent speech by the us president commander in chief of the us military. and we're getting a sense now of what the president might say to the american public and really the world. we know that the president has held or is wrapping up his 3rd phone call with is really liter benjamin netanyahu. and his 3rd in 4 days. in fact,
7:30 pm
and he will, we talk a little bit about that phone call once again pledging that the united states, sam's shoulder to shoulder with the is really government. and he will also outline u. s. military and security assistance to israel and to the is really military. we should reminder viewers, that there is a standing agreement that the united states provides annually. 3.8000000000 is security assistance, but we know that israel has asked for more. we have, according to john kirby, the national security spokes person, ascertain that there is an additional request. we know that there will be additional munitions that will be sent as well as intercept or miss styles. so we're maybe going to get a better understanding of what else is being said. what we do know though, is that the president will tell the american public no boots on the ground. that means no soldiers. american soldiers will be going to assist the is rarely forces.
