4:07 pm
understand from statements like this is that this was simply the latest in a series of these riley strikes on the hospital. take us through this history. that's true. well, on the october 9th, the director of the hospital doctor, my head i, yes, had his home, his entire home destroyed and targeted by an injury in the air strikes. and he was completely destroyed. also on the october 14th of october, the cancer treatment center in the hospital was completely destroyed. even is really air strikes and dead and, and the hospital itself, gospel n a, a word he to a block you, we to and like all other hospital in be gone to the strip. and the nature of targeting was on october 17th,
4:08 pm
which was last night where the entire hospital was targeted. now hospitality does that when, when, when you tell hospital feedback you, we, when we know that the, the hospitals are running with over their capacity where the patients are put in different departments in the hospital. we're talking about injuries, hundreds of injuries every day being just a. c being dispersed on different hospitals in e gaus, we'll talk about the sadly taking shelter in the yards off each hospital in because it's just, it's almost impossible for hospital is not to waste any where it, because this trip. so this was the 3rd attack on the hospital after the previous attacks, as human as these relentless as strikes on hospitals on homes,
4:09 pm
bias ready forces continue. total cost through the voices we're hearing from gauze are about how people us simply last to find, to take a decision about where to go, how to, to surviving people like you and your family. i mean, let me tell you this for every thing in this war. is permissible for israel. this war is against over 2000000 people residents in because district this far is nothing against palestinian fighters. it is not against him. us. this for the casualties of this war. our civilian schools are being hit. she's only at homes are being targeted with their residents inside them. um hospitals are now being tardy because they have been targeted many times medical teams have been targeted during the list has been deliberately targeted. uh,
4:10 pm
ambulances were not taught. these are not, these are not a militant, these are not fighters. what we're talking about, what you're mentioning, be enormous numbers of casualties. the are only residents, their children, their women, their people president, an armed civilian in their homes. a ambulance says medical team a, the journalist, the, the, the people shelter in the hospital. these are not 5 sure these are just normal facility is who are trying to find a safe place in this insane war. that every single place in gaza is not based. literally every single place is off. they also israel sharpie, all the god, district checking electricity. uh walter, presenting fuel presenting
4:11 pm
a to enter. uh because this trip is slowly coming the entire population. so people is they're not dying because off the air strikes and the environment they are going to be dying because the lack of medication, the lack of food shortage of water. the. # the, the, the fuel in all cases, the civilians are the ones who are severely suffering, moving from one place to another, trying to find a safe place to stay in. all right, thanks so much room the size reporting to us from very difficult circumstances that in gaza take you to some light fixtures coming now from favorite the lebanese capsule that we go. what we understand is happening. we're looking at part of a pro test that's taking place 1st to the us embassy in the lebanese
4:12 pm
capital. very 10 seasons, of course, has been closed since last night for a day of rage off the the pictures it most of the attack on that side on ashley hospital. and of course, this is old providing very difficult background for the arrival of the us president, the region who's coming on the mission to show support of israel. images of the us presidents showing that support for israel juxtaposed against the images of destruction of a hospital that the 1st couple of pharmacies say is the result will happened amid is ready as price. all of that advertising the sentiment in several
4:13 pm
kept goals in the region and the us president reiterating, i said it's a pool for as well. joe biden is in tel aviv where he's met israel's prime minister benyamin. that's and yeah, i was deeply saddened outrage by the explosion of the hospital and cause yesterday and based on what i've seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team. not, not you. but there's a lot of people out there not sure. so we've got a lot of good overcome a lot of things and how somebody's encouraging a life saving capacity to help the palestinians or is gotten to know this last spring. and alan fisher, he joins us now live from tele visa out on the title of the hospital. i providing a very dog backdrop for joe bindings, message of support for as well right. of the it
4:14 pm
certainly changed the entire, the 9 because of joe biden said not least by the fact that the 3 out of leaders decided to cancel their summit with them in a mine. he was meant to go with it after he's been here. and how often do you get a world leader? cancelling a meeting with the us presidency. it is a huge diplomatic snap to bite. and as be meeting with the v is really war cabinet after his one on one meeting with benjamin netanyahu. the intention is he will not meet the relatives of 1st responders from october, the 7th and families of those who died. and then he will make a speech expressing sold without a to, with the people of israel before heading back and forth in that journey back. he will make phone calls, the presidency of egypt who cancel the meeting and present a bus of the pablo city to sorta see he's hoping that he'll be able to deliver news . why didn't he might have to be in development. the perhaps there will be maybe a ceasefire or some sort of way of getting him to meditate. he need the guys
4:15 pm
because he's aware that for many people in the region, maybe not here to israel. i it certainly a for other out of countries in the area that, that at this stage is a huge priority. a huge priority, but also take us through the huge impact of this attack on the hospital and how israel's narrative of balance it has issued involved well, certainly within 4 or 5 hours they were issuing a report saying it was no them. it was more likely to be a field massage alone from inside gaz itself. in the last few hours, they have presented images by claiming that the pastor and the road and the area shows more likely to be a field missile strike. the and the thing from the is really forces. they also say that none of the forces were fighting in that direction at the time. i know all of
4:16 pm
this has to be expressed with a caviar that in the past that have been a number of occasions where the is really is have immediately denied responsibility for, for the event i'd like to find out to be back to one example is when we all know well and i'll just see it as soon as i cleared the journalist who was killed, these really said that she was killed by a spider. i'm asked who are fighting in the direction of is really troops at the time. that, of course, proved to be false as the fact that these are at least have denied this. joe biden seems to have accepted that on the face of it, the united states had said that they will investigate themselves. but before that investigation could be complete, and i understand that it's still being catty that joe biden said. yes, when he met benjamin netanyahu, that appeared to be in a very badly chosen praise. the other team that were responsible. so perhaps
4:17 pm
without being given all the evidence that's available, joe biden seems to have decided that these relays, we're not responsible, and that was certainly picked up by is really media who immediately changed from pages on web pages across the country, saying it wasn't to joe biden. in coursing him. all right, we'll leave it there with an issue. this or i was prime minister has been thinking the vice president for his support. anyway. nothing. yeah. hold on countries to back here as well in the war against what he called the full series of barbarism on october 7th from us, murdered. 1400, as well as maybe more. this is in a country of fewer than 10000000 people. this wouldn't be equivalent to over $50000.00 americans murdered in a single day. that's 2911. that is why october 7th is another day that we live at in from the agents president says he won't allow
4:18 pm
refugees some goss into his country. i think it would make the peninsula a target for it as well. the whole concept of transferring palestinians from the gaza strip into sewing i is simply moving the fighting resistance from the gaza strip to sign on. which means sign i will become a base for military operations against israel, and then is there, i will try to defend itself and direct its military operations against egypt and sign on. egypt is committed to establishing peace. we should remain dedicated to investment in the peace process. we should come up with a viable solution. if there is a transfer that's at b to the negative does in his row. last row do what they wish to do with the minute threw up for choosing cause a, the fall returning the palestinians back full acts by israel passing water. and electricity is a means to forcibly transfer palestinians into the sign i put in 0, which we totally reject speak to all diplomatic added to james basie joins us now
4:19 pm
live here in the studio and the young james, i want to ask you about the security council what's going on the minute about picking off of what alan was saying about some of the our believe is pulling out saying no, thank you to a meeting with by them if you will hoping. i guess that vitamin is coming to kind of broke has some kind of sees farther. it doesn't look like like going that way. a tool. i think we may well be going to something show to the cease file, but some sort of humanitarian pools, but you're right. the events of the last few hours of really strange things. it's joyce, i mean that we get the situation changed radically on october. the 7th, and it's changed radically again. the arab street, i think, is what's driving this arab leaders. i think of saying, you know, we're not gonna stick with our existing position. we know now need to have a see saw. and i the only way to get the cx 5, i'm gonna get some of the shots of that. and that, which brings us to what's happening in the security council. right. we've got this presently in draft text. is that going to succeed with the russian one sales?
4:20 pm
well, i was just speaking to a colleague, kristin salumi, who's that be covering that in the next 45 minutes when that happens. and that was apparently some pressure behind the scenes, but it from the us mission to be nice. you nice to actually delay this boat. doesn't look like those that we have just about and 45 minutes from now run. they all going to and they all the, all the way to us with currently putting some pressure on to have a delay until bite and was in the but that's the light is not happening. it looks like the vote is definitely on 45 minutes from now. this is a resolution that the draft to be worked on for some days, and it's been more sit down, it originally called for me to meet and meet you see spot. it now calls for humanitarian pauses. and what i think the us, whether us will support this resolution from everything i'm hearing, is that they will use this then to try and re, um, push the plan of separately blinking, which was to get the americans out, the, those that, that have american passports and goals of 5 to 600 people, most of them, tool nationals, get them out of the raffle crossing and get some aiden. a limited pause,
4:21 pm
and then of course, the american position is israel has the right to defend itself. so the, the bottom continue off to about just briefly. why did they want to delay the boat? i think the words i heard was they wanted not to have this vote well, president biden was still in the region. they wanted him on the plane out of here, that's the of the understanding on that i got from people. okay. but then if the idea is a pause rather than a ceasefire, what happens off of that? you've, we've got some phone is out. still got millions of palestinians stuck in garza. i'm the siege. i mean does say the polls change the reality, it doesn't change the reality. it does mean the baptism either on the siege, the bombs, they might have some food motion medicines delivered, but then they will be bombarded again. a very bleak outlook then. what's happening with diplomacy? is this the, the big diplomatic solution seems to me, well,
4:22 pm
hoping this seems at this stage to be old diplomacy is able to achieve the un secretary general is currently in or on his way from, from, from beijing to colorado. think amount of time and chief of the u. n. is also in colorado. they'll be hoping that this pause and then delivery of a to that happens is a 1st step. they can build on. all right, thanks so much. james buys always appreciate your input. thanks for coming in the hospital killings crickets protests across the occupied westbank with hundreds of palestinians rallying in ramallah. demonstrations have again turned out to show the solar down and see where the people have gone. so people are also on the streets on tuesday night. they were confronted by palestinian security forces. hold on to me, joins us now live from ramallah. so what's the street sighing now of the well, the protests have by large, wrapped up we,
4:23 pm
i would say there's between 30 to 50. demonstrates are still there that show a short while ago they have the prayer for those who have full and in gaza. and now they just gathering and having a chat from what i can see here. but earlier i have to say the square and the one on our square here in ramallah was pretty packed. it has been a peaceful protests. 7 they many different slogans were chanted in support of an ox and all of the palestinians in occupied east jerusalem in support of i mean sort of verity of the people and guys and the full. i mean guys are, there were also some slogans games. president mahmoud abbas with that typically the slogan slogan that people are calling for the full of the resume. so it's been a mix bags really of pools, but certainly a wave file is sydney is moving in the old you 5 west back to express how they feel
4:24 pm
about what they watch the after day on folding to their fellow palestinians in gaza . and hold on how much of a difficult position does this put my mood? i'm passing while he is in a very difficult position because at the moment there's very little he can do to bring to a cease fire, especially considering the position of the us administration and the phone support . it has given a prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and i think that after what happened yesterday and that to a roofing attack on the hospital in gaza, the president, the bus, had no other choice, but to pull out of the somebody that was going to be held in a few hours in a month, along with their jordanian k. think of the egyptian president after the fact that his cc he had no choice but to just come back has he said that it would have been
4:25 pm
much more difficult. but it's very telling that for the 1st 10 days of this war, he has kept away from the public. uh yes, we heard from him through written statements, through his official news agency, but we hadn't seen him the only last night that he finally appeared in vision and spoke to the other students and also to israel saying that what happened in the gaza last night was really forcing the the red line and was calling for these re lease to be held accountable. and thomas, but beyond that, at this particular moment, there is little he can do to bring about a ceasefire in gaza. he is pushing along with jordan and egypt to have a humanitarian cory door. do i have this one, the jerry and a come in to the guys this trip. but at the moment there is no results. and the
4:26 pm
more that happens, the more he's under pressure by these people, especially here in the occupied was back. because as guys as i'm full, the well palestinians here are also on the lots of pressure for a few patients forces where there's a check point where is 9 leave nightly rates, whether it's clashes between is really forces and palestinians and the depth or here is rising to the detention tool is rising. so it is a situation that is potentially explosive. and the bus is very much aware of that. all right, hold on to how many thanks so much. i to thousands of people are running outside the us and these really embassies in the jo damian capital. i'm not it's a show of support for the palestinians off the israel as s like in the hospital. and garza jordanian government has declared 3 days of morning, several pro palestinian, much as i expected across the country. some political parties are cooling for
4:27 pm
a general strike on salvage of a joins us from the jordanian capital. i'm mine. so sam is not often that someone refuses to sit down with us president what a job they need. the official saying about that. the scenes that you're seeing as of mine are quite the opposite of what was expected 24 hours ago, where a 4 potty conference was to take based with the jordanians, palestinians, the addictions. i'm the americans would have sit down to discuss a possible ceasefire. but since that form in the hospital last night, thousands of people across the jordan have come out in the streets, the biggest protested being, taking face at the us and these really embassies here in the capital i. 9 with hundreds of people continue to port towards the is really embassy in particular. and the police and security forces keep pushing them back. they don't want them to enter these really embassy. it's worth noting that there is no is really presence
4:28 pm
at the embassy. because since the beginning of this conflict and october, the 7th, their reports from is really media that on is really fissions, have been evacuated, which is on also the case in a robust as well as cairo is where the is really and the caesar either have been or are being evacuated has been, but that does not appeal to the anger of the people here who say that israel has been tardy. and now the strikes with impunity that i'm really, it's not just what they're seeing in gaza and the west bank, but they're also angry at out of government because protest is told us that they have not done enough. their leaders should have done more, and they need to do whatever kind of big time to stop is raised from bombing palestinians. so it's an ongoing situation, as you mentioned, not just here in the capital of mine, but across major provinces and cities in jordan across them at least where people are coming out in the numbers. showing that i'm very showing solidarity for the
4:29 pm
palestinians and asking the world to do more a home that points assignment as you're talking. i should point out that the 4 of you, as we're looking at life fix, is just the bump fuel box coming in from babe. ruth said with protest, his protest is gathering in the lebanese capsule on screen left. you've got the latest pictures of the demonstrations in on mine, and on the point you mentioned about how this is touching enough throughout the middle east. of course the we just tool called us through how in all of the cities that we're looking at, whether it's by root, a mind or a sizable refugee, palestinian refugee populations. and the people who have suffered the effects of, of the creation of the state of israel. being pushed down to van lines and decades of occupation, and that's how things resonate very quickly around the middle east. when
4:30 pm
i spoke to a fault as to who was suffering for after the guy said he is coming down his eyes. and he told me that right now what his rate is doing is repeat off what palestinians call the neck. but the catastrophe when the state of his really was created, millions of palestinians were pushed out from the tennessee. and this is something which is resonating not just almost the jordanians and palestinians here, but across the road. and even leaders are seeing to israel like you've heard from the jordanian thing you've heard from the egyptian president, that they will not allow more palestinian refugees on their story. not just because they do not want to open the board as, but because they do not want to repeat what has happened in the past here in jordan, more than 2000000 palestinian refugees have called this country home for decades. you have to realize that people who are born why refugees are older than 50 years, while they have been different, you have, they're not allowed to go back to their own country, or they don't have
4:31 pm
a right to return and something that they see escalating every now and then the relative of the people who they call their own are being subjected to bombings every few years. but that was 201420082003. and israel continues to go off to what it calls terrorist as it continues to bomb ciboney. and populations, and this is what protest is that being tending us when we speak to them this so much longer possible on the streets, across the middle east, where they say that why comp, the international community see what is happening independent stain in 31 girls speaking in perfect english told us that why is, are there any comparisons being drawn to just over a year ago when deborah ukrainian refugees and the world stood behind them? why can't the world unite behind palestinian refugees like cod the world do exactly what it did and call out it's right and for what it's called doing for tooth part of sydney. and so there's a lot of anger people point towards what they called that was funded. the
4:32 pm
complicity of what need is towards what is written is doing. and a complete immunity with which is written is able to continue to target for this thing. and many of you who are relatives of the 2000000 refugees who called jordan, they're all right. thanks so much. it's time to binge evaluate the and as we are continuing to watch those process that taking place in lebanon against israel has the long cold for large scale demonstrations on wednesday. what is cooling a day of unprecedented rage by route, angry process taking place outside the us embassy as always, ease of use will to canada and 5 to guest to try and disperse crowns. is i know for the has this update from virus while we are in the law is how what does this calling
4:33 pm
4:34 pm
essential as well as the law has been reading fire for the the entire, almost the basis of the conflict. the border is large, they can find the target. besides this target military position in the area of conflict for kilometers from the board in the radius of 4 kilometers for the biggest question is what's next. when has intervene and health care has been calls from day one to take part in this. so today the words from the top has official so i have an al
4:35 pm
jazeera coming off continued special coverage, be off them off of these radio sti from the hospital in gaza, which is killed hundreds of palestinians. the north korea supreme leader came. joan sista isn't merging as a lucky successor. 101 east investigates north korea's most powerful woman on l. g 0. the

4:38 pm
district. what do you do since i've done is to provide for that capacity and now my upset, my, you may need to include the native there to follow that up. and the seeds on the ground as we speak. well, does that mean i, are you hopeful that soon aid will be able to attend to a golf? so when we cannot have an effective distributional 8 in ga. so in the meet the low level, we need the space to get that in and get the distributed to move on to medium people on the inside. so that is what we have been working on in to the district with these over the us, the base and i think we're coming to us in a do you think it's going to happen any time soon? i think it's going to happen, and i hope it will happen as soon as possible. well that spring in now

4:40 pm
luxury of having water running water where they can take showers and, and wash watch their faces or brush dirty is none of this is the present at all. we're talking about fully drinking water and in most areas in the gaza strip from the northern part all the way to the south. the south that was designated by these really are me as safe a place for people to evacuated, to has the same series of problems as the northern part. now, without the human, a tree and policies, your human history inquiry or as the you and in void of the describe that i think we are, we are headed to the human interior and catastrophe. and in the coming a few days if it's not already happening in some parts of gaza. right. and as the old to king, i just want to point out, stay with this for
4:41 pm
a 2nd. i just want to point out 2 of you as we're looking on the left side of the screen that seems really picking up in bainbridge on this time. that's a demonstration taking place close to the us embassy has the long cold for a day of rage and we're seeing things apparently getting ready heated out. and we can see security forces lining up that trying to contain those demonstrations. so clearly what's happening honey in gaza is moving the arab street at this point. tell us a little bit about how people are coping now. we see, for example, off to the strike on the alley baptist hospital, lot of civilian casualties being rushed to all the hospitals, but they were already running low on say 6 through the have few electricity. so that's right in the hospitals, across the gaza strip. but running the under capacity, i'm aware of the ship,
4:42 pm
a hospital is running the 5 times beyond its capacity. other smaller hospitals like the what i'm is i'm reporting live the front. it's a 3 times beep beep beep beep beyond its capabilities to accommodate patients. let alone casualties or from, from various tribes. what the, what the incident did. it created an outrage across the world. i know there is a wide is for condemned. a nation of the attacks on, on, on the baptist lee hospital in the gaza strip. what's important to point out the hospital was, was thought by many people who were asked to evacuate the northern part, then the and got the govern rate and took it as a shelter to protect their family. so what did it literally, the 7 grew by evening time, each family gatherings, family members and sat in group either to have a little chat about the war or whether they were going to be safe or not. or how goes whatever food they had at that moment uh the,
4:43 pm
the todd shot or any sense of security to palestinians. so from where i'm reporting right now, the hospital has been a site for the past 2 hours, side of 22 major elements. one that it creates a sense of hunger and tiers and sort of for a fee of the remaining family members. that part of the hospital collecting did bodies of their family members who died in the, in their strikes earlier today. the other elements of the hospitals of the scene here is more people despite knowing the danger involved in taking hospitals as dangers as dangerous. uh, because due to the fact the hospital that was taken care and, and sponsored by, by, by a church was targeted and, and most civilians board there were killed despite that people are all is still thinking that it might be safe enough for them and not leaving the streets so
4:44 pm
that's, that's how it's it's, it's a kind of ironic, but this is the reality of how people are thinking about right now. thank you so much. hi, me for relying to us the situation there in the south of gaza. and we are continuing to look at those live pictures coming in from the roads where it seems like security forces playing something of a cat and mouse game with protest is gathered in the lebanese capital. you saw them firing tear gas trying to disperse, demonstrates is angry. the is riley strikes, leaving the strength on the hospital last night, following which has the long, cold for a day of rage was suddenly seeing. lot of angry seats playing out in our capitals like diarrhea today. the un secretary general, internally with tablets, is condemning the attack on the hospital. is calling for an immediate humanitarian
4:45 pm
sci fi for 45. by the time that is what people do, it's all holly or speech all these same day. you guys by us tonight. suffice throws me condemn earlier. today i call sort of the media to many setting ceasefire to provide sufficient time and space to help realize my slip you and to me is the epic human suffering. yeah. i'm talking about a kathy is the right sort of the global institute for teaching research. i haven't been study for university, joins us here in the studio. good to have you with us. so a listening to what the secretary general was saying though, about the need for a humanitarian sees fine. but listening to the signals is all different. monica, it's a jane space is in picking out from you. and it seems like the discourse of shifting towards something called a pause from the seas. by what exactly does that mean of
4:46 pm
a cease fire usually involve the suspension of fire fighting between 2 parties or more and uh, it is usually intended to be long term and covers the whole geographic area. so basically the 2 parties do not exchange fire across the, the, for the area. and that often is part of political dialogue and may be intended to lead to some mediation or some, even to each supplement for the confidence. and that doesn't seem to be that pays us, we're very far from that. so i think what he's calling for is more human. teddy and poets where you ask for a specific geographic area within the whole scene of the complex and for a limited amount of time. where if the 2 parties a try and refrain from attacking each other in order with a specific purpose to allow humanitarian assistance in the country and or to move
4:47 pm
people into a safer place. and the 3rd which i know it has been used also to change a, b is the human into it and caught a door here. montana and car doors is similar to the fall is except that it is about defining one geographical route and to the uh, the uh, beginning area to allow for the evacuation of the injured and to allow for them to turn in a medical aid to come in and is that what we're heading towards? do you think a humanitarian card or an aide car though? i think ultimately probably be a combination of even turning the corner door and, and the pause. this is what the united nation is calling for. is a pause because the scale of, of one of hang on it's impossible to just meet with one way with the aids come through. are we talking about only that off crossing or also edits? seems right and has the responsibility to allow a and the international return handle to allow aid from all the 6 crossing points
4:48 pm
that it has with, with gaza. egypt, as it was saying earlier, i think has the responsibility and also the moral duty to push forward with him and carrying a maybe even with the, you know, kind of by it's, it's ministry. but it seems like most of the focus is on getting a through rough and it's there's a little discourse about opening up the all the crossings which are controlled by as well, which is a mistake. this is bang in today's rainy arrow book, and there's riley is decided unilaterally to approved 1500000 people from the north for the pushing them into the south to create specifically they have to turn in crisis and to hold that ultimately, egypt will accept international pressure and open the borders to move the 1100000 into the site as well. rough alone be a big enough for the crossing to get sufficient quantities of
4:49 pm
a through know 20. and also when we talk about your new 10 and 8, it is really, really, which includes very basic assistance. this is going to translate down to portions of food that is calculated on the category per person. maybe some water and hygiene kids were not treated, talking about anything that's going to sustain people in terms of their lives. which is also an important point to to, to address is what it is. i've also cut all the civil servants salary, solve these nurses that you see not only being targeted and the doctors, they're also not paid a salary for the last to 10 days, and they are unlikely to be paid for a long time to come. all right, thank you so much to upon. so coming in and discussing things this file is deployed. more troops and tanks near the cause of border, so also evacuate the residents from towns in the south as if it pass for a possible ground invasion of the own place. so as of a reports from southern as well, we're here in southern israel,
4:50 pm
this is the closest we could make it to the border with a gas up from here, we're able to see the air strikes happening right behind us. the black smoke coming out from those strikes that are happening. and guys, in the past few days, we were able to make it closer to some of the towns a closer to the border. but that is really military has been increasing the exclusion someone's way to becoming harder and harder to make it closer to the border with guys, we have seen thousands of soldiers moving into this part of the country. there's times are more vehicles probably preparing for what could be a ground defense of most of the towns around this area have been evacuated, the houses around to the shop, a closed in the town of state, or for example, a town of around 30000 people. there's only a few 1000 that have been left out to is compared to other countries around the world to other conflicts around the world. if you see what's happening here and with the strikes that are happening right in guys,
4:51 pm
this area would be flooded with refugees, with people trying to escape awards on what that is not happening because they've been funding guys that are trapped, they kind of go to egypt they kind of come towards as well. i know it kind of leave towards the sea, so they're completely under siege. they cannot leave. they're being told, for example, to move towards the southern part of the country. but some of those areas are also being bombed. there's been lots of talks about the possibility of too many tiring assistance, but there's also been humanitarian workers who have been killed. and if the situation continues, as it is with the air strikes that we have been seeing from here, it's not clear yet when something like that could happen. but it's, i will, i just see that in southern as well. the right side, the the, there's a reverend at an anglican church in ramallah during
4:52 pm
a news conference. the code on the national community to hold israel accountable since the hospital attack and put it into the wall that's shown on have that as a church. we're responsible for this hospital and we strongly contain the targeting of medical facilities and paramedics. we can see that this extra mandatory in violation and a crime against humanity. we hold the occupying party responsible for this attack. they're responsible for protecting civilians. they are responsible for what's happening in concepts and they're responsible for the attack on the lead baptist hospital. we continue to follow up with our church in jerusalem and with all the anglican church leaders in the holy land and around the world. we also following up with international regional and legal institutions, we called for those responsible and the support has to be held to account as well as the hospital is run by the anglican communion, a global christian organization. in a statement the fiscal full diocese of joe some wrote this day of reflection was
