8:03 am
stop them, but we were told the red cross of the hospital to let the civilians can, which would mean. and suddenly rockets and missiles started folding on all the civilians who with it, including women and children, who had the bodies, dismembered, no one with sped pleasure, hospitalized unprotected by the 1st geneva convention. it states that medical personnel and facilities cannot be attacked under any circumstances. so i need them, does that display strike a hospital? that means they have no limitations. they've given the green light to execute a palestinian. that means they can choose as harry as well, and that's less than an hour before the strike is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu said civilian safety and gaza is the responsibility of how much criminals they're committing a double one car attacking civilians hiding behind civilians. as human shields, the entire world should come demmet and should support is one and it's just more of
8:04 am
this strength comes just i was of to a un protected school was hit killing at least 6 people. as israel's blockade of gauze, it continues. it's 2200000 residents remain trapped with no search and safe place to hide from israel's attacks. to meet you met with in co, out you 0. well, i was off. the attack is ready. mote, trees sent out a new advisory. it's urgent residents of gall, this city to head south to a so called she monetary and zone where they can collect aid. so for the l colored is inside the gaza strip. i'm doing this now on the phone and stuff like festival. how does about this advisory and how the is, randy ami is spreading news about it. a look from the beginning of the war. the word god or the army has been intercept. the low can read your stations are being publishing and that'd be publishing and get this what this warning uh through uh
8:05 am
critical messages. how so this is not something you knew about the have been up there anything the areas in that i of the, the north of the gods. i. so the reason the most recent uh, warning is toward some neighborhoods in garden city. like she yeah. yeah. they don't necessarily mind another place. they're asking people to get evacuated. these neighborhoods to the south of the god listed 12 now and now i was a good enough night. i met people from god level with this place from die to this house. i know are considering returning to their homes in gauze and the not because of lack of everything here in, in the south. the south of the gaza strip is not an independent entity or independent governor governor rate. the horn depend on the theory and supply out on depends on the stream crossing. so why don't the days that i usually say to go to
8:06 am
the humanitarian places where all day we spent a whole day looking for some water out or some food on some bread. this is a case all over the guy. the sort of people are lining up. i'd be curious on that's what i've been dissolved in the north in diversity, the theme and the south and other places. uh, the people here in guns i used to call the guy that they used to do before. that was the biggest open visit in the world, and now they call it the biggest industry g. come in the world to all the population of the goddess. the 2300000 became refrigerators on i've been displacing from one of my place to another less like myself. i have like to take my family, i'm fine. i look for another place because there were some exclusions in the year and you have a place that you placed with all you'd like to arrange it so. so luckily my case it's, it's just, this is the same scenario where we go so far. this is what i'm wondering,
8:07 am
given the, the, the conditions that in the goals of the strikes 12 days of siege. i'm wondering whether this promise of a, this promise of a so called humanitarian zone will mean that people will follow this advisory a still stuff. what can you hear me? yes, i stuff. what do you think people will follow this advisory given that they've been promised aid the united nation or just relieved? a new statement saying that god re add on out of the thought on fuel on sooner. right now to, for this is the mean human terry and stuff fly out in the garbage room. so this is the highest living. so in terms of the back pick out 10 things, all the supermarkets that provide that to the folks over everybody. every the side say that the stocks or the,
8:08 am
the warehouse is that on out of everything in terms of sin, shall food stuff. it is. i thought if you can tell us little bit about the optimal of this is where the strike on the hospital in the north, the in gauze, the 500 people that was the lock desk told that we have, do you have any updates on the situation? what does the minister really say? you still have not recognized some of the many of these are the people who will kill them, but the majority of them, according to the administrative, there are children and well being sheltering in the hospital. and it's not only in this hospital in many places, since that i use the word and the people are honest with people to evacuate and the government, the press office in dogs, all the they all the people to part fear for the wide public participation in the funeral that will be held later by the way in gaza, the dump, very,
8:09 am
all of these bodies in the submitted is, does just be a big because on very all of them together. so the collecting, budding, and all of the gotta sit for themselves too long. so we will, we will wait till we are waiting for further notice to uh uh, regarding the timing time, the details for the funeral or the collect the funeral, all the others or the victims of the hospital. okay, stuff. what i'll do is we'll keep an eye on events that and goals that throughout the day, thanks very much for joining us. a lovely does have condemns the as really strike on the hospital and golf reference present to my new my chrome says nothing can justify a strike against the hospital or targeting civilians to his president. which app type of the one says the strike on the hospital. the women, children, and innocent civilians. a treated is the latest example of israeli attacks that like the most basic human values, castles, foreign ministry has cooled the attack a brutal mastercard and a heinous crime against defense. the civilians,
8:10 am
european council president shall, michelle says an attack against civilian infrastructure is not in line with international know, and saudi arabia says it condemns in the strongest times what it cause the heinous crime committed by the israeli occupation forces of a city and present blackwood, abbas is also denounced the attack on the baptist hospital as a hideous massacre. st palestinians will not be false from the land. while the tech said of gloom with that israel government has no red lines any more and it should be held responsible and punished since the beginning of the aggression as being bloodshed. given to nights masika, i decided to cancel my visits and come back home to be with my people joining these hall times. well, that's no, not enough. that good, i'm j. we will not surrender. what is important is we will stay on all land. we will not leave all our and we will not allow anyone to force us to leave as they did in the past. the past will not repeat itself. a mazda, he has ready,
8:11 am
prime minister, has denied israel, was involved in the bone, bob minutes of the hospital, and gone to the city and the social media post on the ex, for me, known as prince benjamin netanyahu says, the entire well should know it was ballpark terrorists and golf that, that attacks the hospital in guns are not the adf, those who briefly met adult children also, not to that right. children speak now to start higher at. she joins us from occupied. east joyce, i'm so sorry. is a storage st denying responsibility for this hospital attack. what's the latest you've been hearing from them? yes, and just a few minutes ago they released the video. that's the is randy on me releasing a video. it's just as proof. they said that this wasn't to do had nothing to do with that. of course they've been blaming. it's not meant to had full that it's a real kid that hits the hospital, but the full that as soon as it happened, there was a flurry of messages on social media, the wrong date. so we used
8:12 am
a distance summation, the tweaks that were deleted, including i'll read a few of those out to you. you had some of the problem in to serve as role switzer counseling. this is a struggle between the children of lights and the children of darkness, between humanity and a little of the jungle. of course, that was soon to be said. you also had a facebook, a se, posts that was taught by the army, st. jude to the lack of medical equipment and lack of medical stuff. it was decided to bring the boxes posts between garza and gave them you to a z a and then that was deleted. i'm of the price. there was a video they have posted, which seemed to have a wrong date. so a lot of this information, and that's been really interesting also following a lot of these really media and the narrative that they've been putting out in terms of what's happening cause we're not really actually seeing much of the videos out there. we're seeing lots of statements, of course, and videos from that. how much initial, how much set on this is re lease,
8:13 am
but you're seeing a lot more on that side of things. then what's going on and cause of cause, since that's a time on the hospital, these damage i had, has denied that use or has the under control. that owns that building is what i was met as also from frontier saying the same as will center in his doctors without borders. and this is what we're going to be saying a lot more. that's a different narrative where they're trying to prove that this is nothing to do with them. of course, isn't the 1st time we had one of our own colleagues sharing who was killed as a huge investigation into that. they did initially deny that that happens a couple of years ago. these rallies denied it, then they sort of admitted that potentially it could have been one of the not quotes is still in the quotes. this isn't the 1st time we see that kind of this information, of course, to say, well, we're probably going to be seeing is an aggressive campaign to prove that it wasn't then behind this a top. okay, sorry many thanks for that. so her at joining us from occupied east joycelyn. well
8:14 am
us present terabyte and is due to arrive and is right in the coming hours. he bought it out for us one just i was off the hospital attack shortly before he took off. jordan, cancel the plan summit between bites and an arab leaders like kind of as the latest from washington dc. joe biden leaves the white house. so in an unprecedented journey, a us president traveling to israel as it wages war. the prime intention to visibly demonstrate us support in the most dramatic of ways. he goes with the whole backing up congress. the us senate was to push through a bu, providing material aid to israel, as well as he met a terry and relief for palestinians. the senate mazda bubble were quickly and swiftly to draft consider and pass a strong aid package for israel. as soon as we can, that includes military support, a intelligent support,
8:15 am
diplomatic help. the senate minority leader adds other elements to the presidential to do list. you need to make it clear that isn't ministration, will do everything possible to keep israel tom and a space it nude to conduct the required military operations for as long as it takes how many more hold of the house is still into them. while with majority republicans sharply defined to do but ideal, a g lead to ship and policy. yet admits this division, there is one point of agreement to my whole support for the state of israel. well, i think the resolution 1st to show that the american people in terms of representatives, support israel and condemn a moss and these terror attacks the deadline to refunding the government is fast approaching. but for most republicans, the priority is to get a pro israel bill through the house this some top of the $3300000000.00
8:16 am
a year that congress has never contested us so. so 1st country in the will to recognize israel. the recognition by president truman coming only 11 minutes off to the provisional government to clear it's, they towed on may the 14th 1948, and president biden is likely to point to the drive to pass. and israel bill and the senate and the house as clear evidence, that recognition and support has never wavered. montana oh, just sierra washington. president biden is also reacted to tuesdays attack and a statement. he says he is outraged and deeply saddened by the explosion of ali hospital in gauze and the terrible loss of life that resulted. he goes on to say the us times unequivocally for the protection of civilian life. during the conflict, a correspondent impression is intel a vive. for us, so in this hospital strike has thrown vitamins itinerary into disarray was his pan now off the lines in tell of even
8:17 am
a few hours time. well, his intention of course was to come and act as a known as broker to show support for this year, which has done since hours after that. how much so tact, but also ordered them to take care when it comes to their operations and guys to minimize the humanitarian impact that it hides. that argument has been made a lot easier after what happened in the hospital. and joe biden is been struck to this national security team, the carrier, their own investigation, to find out exactly what happened. he sees this, excuse me, important. these feelings of course of already decided that it'd be well responsible for this. but clearly he's flying into a situation this a lot more bullet's file that he expected at. but it made me just strengthen his hand when he goes to argue with the israelis that there is a danger that an extended operation in gaza would lead global public support the date of the hot immediately after what happened 10 days ago. but now that tool
8:18 am
didn't, has canceled the summit with egypt to the palestinian present my who is a fast, how does that affect vitamins credibility as an honest broker here? it's embarrassing and is upset by joe biden. believes that when he gets people in the room, he couldn't negotiate, he can get people to come together. that's just disappeared. because when was the last time you had of someone walking away from a meeting with the president of the united states. and that's exactly what the jo, dd is. the objections in the palestinians have done that. the white house is putting a spin on it, the understand the need to more and those who died. but this isn't bad. i think there's no doubt about it. and it certainly henders his ability to do we was going to do, which was i even handed visit israel, then travel to jordan for his tri country summit. so becomes a lot more difficult. he will speak to my food
8:19 am
a boss and president cc of egypt on his what done the whole, but this is a long way to come to show support for israel. would it be a might be struggling to show anything for it. and on tuesday essentially say as he blinked and was talking about a humanitarian pendant, a plan. what happens to that now? well of course it's all been given to david soccer field, who is the new presidential invoice, the special invoice, to deal with the amount of tubing affairs. and he's trying to set up some sort of possible safe corridor, but also to make sure that international aid gets in to guys that that know becomes a bigger task for him. again, a talk to know how to do nomic of what's happened in the hospital will change things, but it might make things easier to try and get into and actually into a big guys a strip. because these relays, i,
8:20 am
a while denying that they were responsible, have undoubtedly been wrote back on their heels by the international reaction to what happened in gaza late on wednesday night. okay, and they said joining us at from tennessee, thanks very much on them. so anthony lowenstein is an independent journalist and author of the palestine labord tray. he was based and occupied each wisdom between 2016 and 20. enjoying this now from volley in indonesia. great to have you with us . so the question that a lot of people are asking today is, was this and is really strikes on the hospital or, and his lumnick, she had rocket as, as well, would say a look. obviously it's important to say anything at this stage has to be with kevin . yes, because we don't know 100 percent? no, but certainly a lot of the evidence that i've been saying i'm what i noticed in history, in the last decades with israel has a long history of attacking hospitals and medical facilities in guys the westbank h jerusalem lab. and on for that matter, many years ago during its invasion,
8:21 am
there in the 1980s. and the story also has changed since these ro is attack happened. the number of hours ago he's rouse, in fact, the in store. it has changed many times. so i don't think the context also is a few days ago. i know that this hospital had been shelled by israel as a so called warning me to exactly why. so how any rational country would suggest that that's a warning is beyond me. so in the face of it, it looks potentially like in his riley attack, it is a, is can visit saying that it's got evidence that proves it, didn't do it. what would the evidence have to be? what would it have to look like to prove that it wasn't responsible? i suppose some kind of compelling evidence in terms of conversations, images adopted at photography or video. but i mean again, with bane in this situation before that i think about if he's a guy, when the us attacked a must have hospital in afghanistan, which is a devastating attack that killed huge amounts of f. can some feelings that us insisted for a long time?
8:22 am
it was not as it was nibbled since it was terrorist, it was the us. so that's a different case. knowledge that, that we've been here before. and i think we have to treat any id as denial with deep skepticism because anyone that knows history would agree with that. present terabyte and is flying into all of this. do you think his visit could change anything on the ground at this stage? you know, i say biden's visit actually sign of insecurity rather than strength that we've seen in the last 10 years. so he's huge amounts of air of states normalized. so cool relations with israel. and it tells me that you a by rein, potentially saudi morocco and others. but the superficial normalization their essentially, as i say, in my book, hold about they states wanting huge amounts of is riley surveillance technology and e c and the last week and a half. so basically even these off of this attack on the hospital, huge amounts of arrow people from across the world are processing. they do nothing great with a regime supporting and blindly backing israel. so by that, in fact, he's coming to support israel at a time away. yes,
8:23 am
he's raylon's and i believe stuff that a mess even unconscionable, how most attacked to be sure, but now they've humbling gaza. and again, as i've often been saying to watch and we keep on hearing, i wonder, eliminate, have mouse as a potential political governmental organization. okay. let's presume it that's even possible then was what happens with the people of gaza. what happens to the fact that there are literally 2200000 guys and people whose lives have to be controlled now? who's going to be managing the education house? that's what i worry about moving forward. and do you think that this event could spread throughout the region encompass hospital attack, particularly the so the max that likes to tend to box, i hope that's obviously the real concern, right? that is, escalates into potentially live at home. it takes voila, or frankly beyond that. and i would potentially suggest that a lot of arabs in egypt and jordan that have had peace deals for years with egypt. and when we think me these rel, i'm not happy about it. i mean,
8:24 am
it has always been basically us every and bribing nice to states to be friends with these are al, but most of those people do not support that. so i think you're going to see a huge in increasing amounts of protest across the arrow. well, putting pressure on their own governments to not normalize your license or these route to isolate is around medical us, but special in the us. so i see biden's vision. well, there's a sign of us strength been sent to us weakness. you ask why as well has the once these attacks, there's been a lot of questions asking why as well, how much notice is the attack on israel, especially at this time? where did you see that coming from you may need to check on the hospital. i presume that the last attack on israel a look, i think that it's hacked in some ways. i mean, some what i understanding was that they didn't, i expected to be so broad base. i didn't actually expect it to be so into the comments successful. i think also this goes to the heart of the effective date. huge amounts of pressure within the hour boiled to not continue to normalize
8:25 am
relations with these reland sadie was potentially on the cost of signing a deal with israel in the us. and i think also it goes to the ha, which is key of every conversation. the guys are and tell us bonds, you know coupon for decades and decades. guys has been on the blockades in like 20 years and having spent time and gaza as a recruiter and a friend of mine who's who lives and haven't gotten friends of mine. i'm in touch with now. their lives are incredibly difficult. they don't have freedom is moving now the way it, how much went about that somebody's personally uncomfortable, but this is, this is the context. this is the detail that i think is also missed. it's like, you know, how much doesn't somebody just do something because they hate jews. it's tom on new ones and complicated and then, and now we're in a situation where he's realizing has believed for decades. the occupation could be cost free. it is not cost for any doesn't justify attacks against civilians by any means. but occupation is no cost free is a us found to which detriment any rock in afghanistan. and you know,
8:26 am
i'm saying really interesting speak to, thanks to him times join us the from valley. thank you very. thank you. so much of the hospital masika has triggered protests in the occupied westbank with hundreds of palestinians taking to the streets in ramallah. the demonstrates as much to install a darcy with people of garza, the confrontations with security forces and one kind of city and protested as opposed to the thing killed by is really forces in a vintage net ramallah. it's all stuff that was in ramona when the violence unfolded what you're hearing there, a sound grenade spring, followed by the a stain in security forces to try and break up his crowd. what i can see over the balcony, a large fire burning into squared or running st bottles with the security policies they live far. 2 we understand big,
8:27 am
big fod into the air as well. by the way on the side of simeon government, as you can see, that sounds landing on our, the central square. see kyle's this protest that's live far. you can have this product says a lot of the focus of it was i'm go towards the pilot stadium, president, my hubbard, i bus. they want him to shots his visit show stopped making international leaders like the us, the president did back into the palestinian territories. i'd say better for the soul of the situation the same as being completely in effect to the part of sydney and lead his political career. if this continues is hanging on a thread and we on the sign there were similar protests that have been happening in
8:28 am
various other cities, towns across the west bank. so nice as this and go about what's happening again goes up. and what the people here say is be complete and also the negligence of the palestinian lead. mahalo de bass. it's all stripes. what else is 0 room? all of these ready attack on the hospital and gaza has sparked angry demonstrations across the region and beyond. this was the same in jordan's counsel, a man with dumplings of protest is trying to enter the as really embassy compound emphasizes police to security barrier. but with this specified security forces tackle says that hundreds of protesters onto the streets of trinity as comp. so i gathered outside fonts as embassy into this and in level and protests is valid and they will head for last course and large scale demonstrations on wednesday and most
8:29 am
at cooling a day of unprecedented rage against israel. then a honda has moved from a demonstration outside the us embassy in the lebanese capital. i'm very protesters are trying to break through the security core then outside the u. s. embassy. there's a lot of anger in the streets of favorites as well as other cities across 11 on people are blaming the united states as much as they blame is rough for what they are calling a scene. is a war crime against the palestinian people. they believe that the unconditional support that the united states, as well as other western nations, provides as well, allows it to carry out such a mass occurs. in fact, the lebanese, a, lebanese government has declared a day of national morning and has below one of the most powerful political forces in this country. that also has an armed wing, which is engaging in an open conflict with as well along the southern border is
8:30 am
calling for an unprecedented. these are the words it is using an unprecedented days of rage tomorrow. it believes that the united states is responsible for the crimes . as you can see, a lot of tier does is being used to and the water cannons as well to push the crowd away from so that they're not able to approach the u. s. embassy. so a lot of anger towards the us administration, people here are calling our hezbollah issues and our calling is very difficult to talk with the smell of tier guys. they're calling on the people to stay in the street. they're calling on the people to this is important as well as statement to pressure arab governments in order for as well as quote, mass occurs to stop. so anger, industry, seberio, similar seems across the arab world. but as you can see, the security forces are not allowing people to read.
