11:30 am
ambulances of mosques and hospital hospitals are illegal, of course is illegal under international law. a clear violation of international law by is really forces that, you know, you talked about the roof or a roof of being bombed today. thursday, the roof of crossing with egypt was also bombed earlier this week. by these readings, they have been some report suggesting that there was some sort of negotiations going on with the discussions to allow a humanitarian corduroy even to allow people to leave guys. uh uh, to the roof a core door. um it, what's the latest on that and, and uh, the civilians of guys are willing to leave without the guarantee of being able to come back is well, we're still hearing negotiations. we're still hearing that egypt has asked for a key just a 6 hours of a ceasefire for the residents of gaza, where there could be an emergency corey door open for uh, either a humanitarian,
11:31 am
a to enter, or people to get out of gauze, the bus. israel has also declares that the entire gauze district is a closed military area and nothing is allowed to enter or come out of it. and this was very clear, a statesman made exactly in returning to the egyptian to statement saying that it would send it would send with seen videos of egyptian tractors. c filled with a aid and fuel, turning it around in the past a few days turning around after this is really statement saying that israel is a closed military area and nothing is allowed to enter into a turning around and going back. and then after that the trusting was bombarded. so uh is, is there a willing to allow uh, civilians,
11:32 am
since israel is saying that it's war is against, have us, it's against thomas militants, and i must fighters and it's not against the civilians. and residents of the goals district is have us, is israel willing to allow humanitarian corey doors for d, as a civilian to enter fuels, need that for their survival in hospitals and for their survival at home? is it willing to allow those who need emergency medical treatment to go to hospital in egypt? is it allowing them? is it going to allow them to uh, to, to leave the strip? this is the question. now this is all up to israel. now. we okay. we still haven't heard anything from any is really side talking about any possibility for that. no update, then on that humanitarian to assessment. i talked about, you know, outside in gaza. thank you very much for the moment. we will of course,
11:33 am
be checking in with you throughout the day here on ology sierra. if you're just joining us on, ology or nice, go on past 830 g m t 11 30 am in the gaza strip. let's bring you up to speed with the latest developments in the war in guys more than 1200 palestinians, including 260 children have been killed in these really strikes that you and relief and works. agency says at least 313000 palestinians have been displaced. most of sheltering in un run schools. and at least 1300 is really is i've been killed since a mass launch is military offensive on saturday. the us secretary of state on to me blinking has arrived in israel to discuss the war before leaving the us bank and spoke to reporters. he said, america is for pad and oppose to the targeting of civilians. we want to make sure to the best of our ability and i know israel wants to make sure to the rest of its ability. the civilians are not harm, but israel has to take steps to defend itself. it has to make sure that any
11:34 am
ongoing threat is dealt with. and i believe it has to make sure that going forward . what happens doesn't happen again that's bringing high digital castro in washington dc from all on blinking visits. so what, what are we expecting america to bring on this visit to provide on this visit to his rep, a fully secretary of state and to be blank and will be visiting. we'll be meeting with man. yeah. who and other is really officials throughout the day. and lincoln has said that his primary message, the purpose of this visit, is to show israel that quote, america has its back. also he says that the other item on the agenda is to prevent the spread of this conflict into the region in particular to send a message to e. ron, to has belie loving on not to further involve themselves in this. and of course,
11:35 am
that is also supported by the presence of the us aircraft carrier, the largest in the world that is now in the eastern mediterranean sea, also to prevent the escalation of this conflict. but lincoln also said regarding the potential of a humanitarian core door to allow guys a civilians to leave. he said that there was a quote, an ongoing conversation between the us israel and egypt to establish such a core door. but he would not shed any further details on just how far those talks are, or if there's a timeline or a route that's being discussed. and he also said that democracies like israel and like the us would, would retaliate in a, in a way that is in keeping with international law to minimize, to the best of their ability. he said the loss of civilian lives. and he contrast to that to a mosque who the us says is using palestinians as a human shields in this matter. these are strong words echoed also of course by the
11:36 am
president himself, joe biden, who met with american jewish groups at the white house on wednesday. also vowing that he would support them, he would support is real and also saying that the us has ascending hostage negotiating experts to assist in returning those hostages that are being held in gauze or by thomas. there could be a handful, according to the us administration of those hostages, who are also us citizens. and all there been at least 22 americans who count among those dead in israel. okay. hi. be thank you very much for the moment heidi. she'll cost her life, force it in washington dc. let's discuss the us role in all this for the now with scott lucas was a professor of american and international politics at university college in dumping his, joining us from burning. i'm in the u. k. thank you very much, scott for be being with us. so what do you make of the us response so far?
11:37 am
well, the bite and administration giving it to me a whole, a free hand to who taught him off by any means necessary. as it founded in the beginning or well, well defined in ministration in states that he stepped back, if the civilian deaths and guys continue to rise was push it down 1st. this isn't just the us, although the headline will be you outside your state and camp lincoln up in the as well meeting the palace and that's what we're the leader ma, ma, pass that in jordan. it's also much of the international community. you know, i've worked with you and covering the violence between israel in y'all's it in 2008, 20142021. what makes this difference? this cycle different was the loss of mass kill. one of these riley civilians with the ground the salt from wash saturday. when they did that, they crossed a line. they didn't fire rock as it before until civil age, but it not carried out deliberate enough killing. that's not that not only the
11:38 am
united states, but a lot of the international community looked at what germany has done today by cutting off developing the palestine. yeah. but other you're looking for that. no, not all you. ok, now, sorry to interrupt you. sorry to interrupt you, it's gotten because not all europeans seem to be on board with cutting development a to policy and today indeed condemn him off his actions. but not all of them are in favor of punishing the policy and people collectively as a result of how much his actions as exactly what i'm saying here is, is that the most like this? tell me the 2 points. what i think blanket is bringing across blanket and much the international community are now taking the line from us has got to go that a month cannot stay in power in gaza and the courses in for but the is rarely position. now that leads us to the 2nd point. how do you get home also so blank, and at the same time, and as you've just mentioned, a lot of your opinions will be, say, look, you don't do this through a disproportionate response. you don't respond to her. mazda is your times by
11:39 am
committing your own work crime. so you need to think carefully, israel about the level of bombing unit carefully, whether or not you go into the ground assault. and you need to make some provision for gas and civilians to try to find security, including through the evaluation. the problem with that, as you know from covering this, our bio analogy here is you need the egyptians to agree to that process for evacuation as well as the, as rarely. so i want, i think we're talking about here is, is probably the store of a detailed negotiation or multiple phones, which says one, we stand with the fact that from boss and behind it you won't have to be isolated in their power has to be curved. and secondly, but we need to discuss carefully how this has to be done because civilians will be killed will be totally large numbers fires rarely retaliation indeed. and we have seen them being killed in large numbers in the palestinian territory. they're all being stopped as well with israel saying that no food, no water, and no electricity will be going into guys, but it is now basic scott lucas,
11:40 am
of this bombing campaign of, of the palestinian territory. where do you see things headed over the next few days? will diplomacy stand the chance, you know, with vine being in the region, all we'd likely to see some diplomatic over choice. oh, okay. well yeah, let's going to stay. just 1st is what you're talking about in terms of the short term. those come off is now out of southern israel, except for a few fighters you're trying to infiltrate. so we're now concentrating on john. so can you in the short term get limitation that contain lot of these really response and then get to a cease fire. and again, i can't give you any indication of when that start occur, i wish i could. but even if you get to a cease fire, there is a bigger question that is here on the, on the diplomatic front. and that is how do you prevent the next cycle of violence from breaking out, especially if it's intensity. and i'm just going to give you bluntly from my perspective. that means that a model has to be removed as
11:41 am
a leadership and java. and you won't have to be isolated. and it also means that it's really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has to go. because those leaders on both sides, using their populations almost as shields in a political shop. and are been willing to have their population separate casualties . those leaderships are the reasons why we're getting no breakthrough towards any type of resolution of conflict in the short term or in the long term. it's interesting that you're talks about next. now with that, because an opinion poll this morning and israel shows that the majority of these release of 56 percent, i believe, wanted to know how to read to resign after this attack by hamas. and, and blame him in a way, hold him responsible for the situation is rel, find his self in today. well, you know, let's be watch here. and that is in the past is really have rallied around their
11:42 am
leaders during the times of conflict, including and when israel has been attacking dollars in the past, but we see 2 things that are different here. first of all, we see not a lot of solidarity, not just, you know, with these really shoes, but the confused is really arrows that the nation, the nation has been attacked. but secondly, nothing yahoo by bringing israel into domestic turmoil, just a simply a state conviction of bribery charges must be blank. why he did it? his attempt to cost to do this year in his attempt to quash his wally rule of law. his division from security services matched the domestic turmoil could be exploited by him. aust, i'm not saying not saying what reason why have most attacked, but it is one reason why they could attack. and of course that's compounded by the intelligent showed audio. so yes, not know who's been going by monitors or at least including a fellowship supported in the past. and i do think that sooner or at least not so
11:43 am
late or she's gonna have to go to the psych evals real, let alone to get some type of deal escalation between israel gals that in the west bank. thank you, scott lucas, for sharing your use with us cotton office, professor of american and international politics at the university college in dublin. thanks for your time. thank you. all right, let's bring you an update now on the situation in southern israel, where that's been pensions with hamas incursions and, and reports of rocket so that attacks by him us corresponding child stratford was early a inmate come in southern israel. and this is what he told us about a situation that a with respect to these incursions, these infiltration is that the ministry keep talking about. yes, there is a risk. the military tell us of that. continuing, there were at least full incident yesterday. the number of different locations close to the gaza strip one and the books near the town of stables, which is where we just come from that involved according to these really ministry,
11:44 am
polish standing and fights is being found in a band or a number of bands. vehicles um the ministry saying that they took that van out with a tank round at least one tank round and believed around 3 palestinian flashes were killed in that incident. there was also another couple of incidents in the town of as it came to the noise of the gauze district, right on the right. on the boat of the, at least 3 palestinian fighters killed very, it's understood, one of whom actually tried to get in on a power divide that in broad daylight. so the ministry is still very conscious and very concerned about these attacks. it's not confirmed as to whether they've even managed to block all those breach points of which they would thousands along the border defense. meanwhile, efforts to get out those bodies remove those. what's believed to be potentially hundreds more is riley civilians who were killed in these couple of seats in the villages in this area. those uh those efforts to ongoing. and of course you can
11:45 am
imagine that being hampered by the spirit of more incursions. so now they are also tensions on these vows. northern border with 11 on has voted lie the lebanese on group says it fight. another missed saw out is really forces in response to the killing of 3 fighters on monday. it's the most serious escalation. since the 2 fights for the war in 2006, i'll just here is highly audi hoshevely for some diarrhea in southern level engine clothes. that's why the conflict across the border skirmishes for the 1st day of each group has the last fog, as it is ready to from that position via the village of title and intense exchange of fire them pools. this is another guy did miss side that we just had now. so it seems we are calling the
11:46 am
witnessing guy a dock. and so often lady from the is really side guarded miss size from the east side, families sheltering in their homes, unable to move. some people were injured after the show hit their home. let us run the america. we hug the ceiling and run down for shelter. then my son and doctor were both injured. and as you see, my house is not livable anymore of the money, and i know the neighborhood. i know that partially damaged home nowadays, but the mattress, you know, we was sitting there was nothing and we started hearing explosions a couple of times. then the one is on the other side, these really started bombarding. yeah, it was horrifying. i can't describe it. we're angry because the houses were targeted. this house to years to build now is destroyed in one second. we took
11:47 am
women and children to safe locations, and i'm planning to stay here. the 2nd decades long ground to install by the conflict vanishing with every clash across the border. and with every exchange of fire, danger of escalating the conflict yet folder into the region and ask for much as he had on the hill soft day 6 of these rails bombing campaign of gaza. and this is what the guys, the skyline looks like right now. a fume of black smoke there as the rates have continued this thursday morning. a number of them this morning, killing dozens of people, including 9 children as we were hearing from my correspondent in the city of con eunice, many a policy and also and just trying to get to hospital. but it's been very difficult for them to do that because israel has been targeting everywhere in the gaza strip . even ambulances have been targeted. so the bombing campaign continues. in the
11:48 am
meantime, the us secretary of state antony blinking has arrived in tennessee where he'll be leaching. meeting with is really need is and he's also expected to speak to the palestinian president mahmoud abbas on friday. but we understand that that meeting is going to be held in jordan and not in the occupied westbank where the palestinian authority is based. that's bringing my job is wary. to talk to us more about this. he's director of the gold study center at katya university. here in doha, let's start with lincoln's visit mama, my job. so, he's there to day on day 6. so these are us bombing campaign. do you get a sense that diplomacy could be perhaps standing a chance here? is they have room for some sort of negotiations, right? now with these read lincoln at the end of his a statement last night in the air force in washington, the last sentence, he talked about suspecting international law and the less expensive it was that i
11:49 am
respected the notion. i know that's an important statement. i think today and is right there will be talking to live in one is actually responding to the under of is what it is that's you know, you'll have the right to do with you about trying to get the blessing to of has been done. closing the eyes of the suffering with the 1st 10 years. but at the same time that many kind of has interest also to open the door for negotiation mediation because it didn't seem like that in the beginning. what was the clock happened on saturday? no, but founded that the americans were getting caught launch to israel folks who don't come off by any means necessary. but that now seems to have change with the images of civilians being targeted in gaza. and israel being accused of violating international norms and really not those voices are coming. yeah. so what is the plan now as far as america is concerned? we heard one of our guest talk about how mosque being removed from the gaza strip and be replaced by the policy you know, 40 possibly. is that feasible?
11:50 am
would that be accepted by the policy and living in the problem is that said yeah, how's government in the last few years? the weekend, but still it was sort of the end the week. is that the best? so basically with the settlements expensive, that's what that meant. with the economy, we can make a weaknesses and, and the pressure on, but it's now sort of the, it has no base, it's obvious, has no base and was back. and if you look at the last 6 these, how many percent it was sort of fuel efficient, came to make statements only our best in the 1st day, and we haven't heard from it and then we certified interest. absolutely, absolutely. that tells you that there is a, this connectivity between of us on west bank and who played. and then paula, it's actually is. as of right now, the americans wants to sing to bring god best to his. the question is, why did you allow is way to week and him from the beginning why he does not listen even to his complaint himself that you know, and the vision is that many times protect us the but it's 10 years. so basically
11:51 am
that is, you know, at the plant and our old target on the place so that no one believe that time as, as a bus has the husband is popular or has supported to the but it's the and he has not neither the center or sort of so this kind of proposal is, is di before the board. okay. what about the regents leaders now when i spoke to guys the how my d, i'm a spokesman just a few hours ago. he said that they were disappointed in the regional response. the arab leaders have been somewhat, you know, cautious in the way that 1st funded we did here uh that the sound you read this conference. how the phone conversation with yvonne's leader about the situation in palestine in garza, which is quite significant that the, the leaders of these 2 countries are talking where our lead is right now in this conflict. and usually, yeah, it's a judgment is, is,
11:52 am
is linked to the position of how much, if the, if the government has it has an open door to such as you would have mass, the judgements would it be different if they have a problem with how much it was the very best, so what least that's what the reason comes is they have for him with how much they made the criticism to how much different his eyes, how much they said everything happened was wrong. and they forget the issue of innovation. tons is open to how much they think, how much is that important to play it and they are running. does that and people should talk to them should open to them they, they think that that is actually pressure to handle and to talk to a how much so um, it has open the door for, i would say in general communication between leaders and the significance of that was the one between so it'd be and, and, and the, and i was the 1st one in years. i think that it, it reminds us of what so called region a debate about regional issues which was demanded for years. that leadership talked
11:53 am
about it tonight because of that and going to the other countries to talk about the regional issues. i think this may be a positive sign, a kind of time because of the policy and costs is being brought back to the for a new in this course in. absolutely, thank you my job for that, my job. so mary, from katara university and we getting some news that out of westbank, that is really sad. let's have a talk, a funeral procession of full palestinians in the occupied westbank. the full were killed by settlers, a attack on a village top of nablus on wednesday. let's get more on this with need a brain who joins his line from ramallah and the occupied west back need of what more can you tell us about this, the time? what happened as well, we're getting the news now from locals and also where they're saying that 2 people have been killed due to the confrontations that have been happening between secular is and is really forces on one side and the palestinians on the other side. now let me tell you what happened for at this that,
11:54 am
that started those confrontations yesterday for palestinians were killed as a part of a secular, a talk it under the protection of course of the is where the army in the village of all said, all that the surround it by for league and is really supplement to supplements today as people were bringing those 4 bodies for funerals. the software is up, stop them on the way before it confrontations interrupted between the palestinians on the one side. and these really forces and the really 2nd there's on the other side. so you find students where it's telling us that even laying their loved ones to rest here in the occupies westbank, being a do. and we're still waiting for the confirmation from the posting in house ministry, but we would already before this latest escalation, talking about 3 attacks on average for the bi sucks those against palestinians with an 800 attack since the beginning of the year. so you can imagine the intensity of the situation right now. indeed, and it has been very tense in the occupied westbank since saturday. since
11:55 am
a mazda is a time on israel just talked to us about how people they are feeling after what happened and, and understand also very little move when free movement from pete for people in the occupied westbank us. yes uh when we talk about the occupied to us bank, we sometimes describe it as a piece of swiss cheese where the holes are the palestinian villages. meaning that if you want to go from one place to another, you have to pause by as a road and the infrastructure that have been built for these indicators where the supplements. so basically, palestinians, when they want to go from one place to another, they are faced by a military chuck boys, as well as woods. that's all i have said. there's an in addition to that fee or of traveling between you to $1.00 place to another. you have these rarely checked coins that are close. now we are talking about some more than $600.00 of them according to you on uh the reports. so is wrote and easy to close them down and they've been doing that in the past. this time we're seeing people trying to 6
11:56 am
bypass roads, but it's still very things are dangerous. there's a lot of fear here because remember, when we talk about, look at us where these supplements, we talk about people who have access to arms. we still for both arms is that there's so people are scared the, the situation now within $750.00 over the success of those could be indeed killing more and more palestinians. it's already received for yes. so they've being killed in close at all. and we are waiting for the confirmation on to a that has been killed to day, according to local sources. so a lot of fear and tension in the occupied westbank as well need to abraham in ramallah. thank you for the moments, anita telling us that that is really set the is have a top, a funeral procession of full policy news in the occupied westbank. uh, the full palestinians were killed by settlers is really surplus during an attack on a village south of nob loose on wednesday,
11:57 am

11:58 am
hallway talk. oh my god. it's like a whole square floor. then 1515 to 20 house, got demolished, knots destroyed, demolished the had a lot of their, a cold snap as kicked in across the north of europe with single, unsettled weather and a much fresher, cooler feel. it certainly feeling more like awesome. and that what and when the weather dominating across southern pots of use of the u. k. pulling across the low countries into germany and poland drooping all the way round into western parts of russia. the much when the phil is well across the north, we have a warnings out around the baltic sea area,
11:59 am
