5:12 pm
a safe place for the jewish people in the world. that's why i was born long said, if israel didn't exist, we'd have to invent it. while it may not feel that way the day israel must again be a safe place for the jewish people. i promise you redo everything in our power to make sure you will be 75 years ago. just 11 minutes after is found the president harry s truman and the united states of america became the 1st nation recognizes real estate buyer side of her sense. we're going to stand by our side now. my ministration was close touchy to leadership. and the 1st moment of this attack, we're going to make sure we have which we have what you need to protect your people to defend your nation. for decades, we've ensured israel's qualitative military edge. and later this week,
5:13 pm
i'm going to ask united states congress for unprecedented support package for as your defense. so we're going to keep our and don't fully supply. so we're going to continue stanley's sentinel over as fairly sky, save you this really lives. we move us military assets for the region, including position in the us as ford cars tried crew in eastern mediterranean with us to size in our, on the way to deter, to defer for the rest of the snow. and to prevent this concept from spreading the world. well, no, this is really strong. is real, a stronger than ever message, any state or any other hospital actor. thinking about attacking is a remains the same as it was a week ago. don't, don't, don't census tears tires, terrorist attack took place. we see to describe as israel 911 for nation. the size of israel was like 159 eleven's scale may be different,
5:14 pm
but i'm sure those horrors have tapped into so some kind of primal feeling israel just like you did felt in united states shock, pain, rage, and all can surely rage. i understand that many americans understand you can't look at what has happened here to mother's your father's, your grandparents son's daughters, children, even babies. and i scream out for justice. justice must be done. and i caution this while you feel that rage don't be consumed by after 911. we were in rage and the united states. while we saw justice and got justice, we also made mistakes on the 1st year as president, a visitor, israel, in time of war. i made more time decisions. i know the choices are never clear or
5:15 pm
easy for the leadership. there's always cost requires being deliver requires asking very hard questions. it requires clarity about the objectives and an honest assessment. whether the pat year on we'll achieve those objectives. vast majority problem studies are not how boss mazda is not represent policy. any people how much uses innocence, innocent families, in gosh, as human shields put in their command centers, their webpage, communications tongue in residential areas. policy that people are suffering greatly as well. to mourn the loss of innocent powers to the lives like the entire world. was outrageous. saddened by the enormous loss of life yesterday in the hospital and gaza. based on the information we see today, it appears the result of an arrow at rock and fired by a terrace group. and god,

5:17 pm
getting close cooperation with the governor to be to united nations and this agencies like the world program and other partners in the region to get trucks moving across the border as soon as possible, separately i ask is real that the global community didn't matter that the international red cross be able to visit hostages. i just demanded that united states for adjustment of united states fully support us today. i'm also announcing $100000000.00 in new us funding for humanitarian assistance, both casa and the west bank. this money will support more than 1000000 displacing the conflict. effective power standards, including emergency needs because you are a jewish state, you are a jewish tay. sure, also a democracy, like united states, you don't live by the rules of terrorist. you live by the rule of law. when conflicts fair,
5:18 pm

5:20 pm
by the example or power to were measured by the power of our example. and that's why as hard as it is, must keep pursuing peace. let's keep pursuing a path to this policy that people can both live safety and security integrity in a piece. for me, that means as to state solution must keep working for us. there's greater integration with his neighbors. these attacks are only strengths of my commitment to termination, and my will to get that done. i'm here to tell you, the tears will not when freedom when. so let me end right began his role. you're not alone. you nice day stands with you. i told the story before and i'll tell it again of my 1st baby was it is really prime minister 50 years ago as young senator. i sent it across from gold. i'm a year and a desk in her office. and she had
5:21 pm
a guy named guy who later became prime minister sitting next to me just before the 1973 off to port war. this is, he slipped the maps up and down the turn, telling me how bad things were out. and we were, all of a sudden she looked at me, she said she liked the photograph. i looked at her, she got up from her desk and walked out of that hallway. i think it's marble for walk down the hallway and walk down. there were a bunch of photographers in front of us, were standing shoulder to shoulder without her looking at me. she said to me, no, i hardly here. why do you look so worse in her bite? and i said weren't like that, of course i'm worried that she looked at me. she didn't lock, she said we don't worry center. we israelis have a secret weapon. we have nowhere else to go with today. i said,

5:23 pm
a safe place. the woods fat of the us present, joe biden, bree counting some of the suffering fat. israel felt on october the 7th. when he said more than 1300 israelis were killed, children slaughtered pure unadulterated evil. he went home to reference palestinian suffering, saying he moans the palestinian loss of life. but now the same time he went home to blame palestinian groups for the attack we saw last night in garza city. when i'll actually hospital by baptist hospital was hate saying he believes it was aaron's rocket file by a tower group that spring and island fisher. who's in tel aviv allen, distilling this speech. this is clearly a strong message of support that will not be shaken for israel,
5:24 pm
regardless of what one sees the last 24 hours or 48 hours on the ground of the. that's right. and also suggesting that to the information that he received from the pentagon points to the fact that this was a p as filled missile finding from the inside guy. so rather than an operation cat, either by israel and a couple of interesting things to buy and really needed deliverables from this visit any seems to convince the is really work cabinet that we do have to open up to magnitude in corners and trucks of 8. we'll start getting into guys a very soon, not quite clear whether or not it will also be a big deal. nationals who have been at the rafa crossing will be able to leave as well. but joe biden saying that screening is not in place to make sure that those trucks can start getting in. that was a consent of these, varies until the blinking had mentioned the fact that that the feed was likely to
5:25 pm
start flowing on on sundays. but that was, i mean, somebody bought it looks at this, not me will have to be overcome. and job. i'm trying to be the own is broker by suggesting that of course, the answer to the issues in the middle east is greater engagement with israel and will see not through the brown records, but also a 2 state solution. and standing intel, a b a saying that that is the, is the way forward. i. but also in these people are concerned about the number of people that are being held captive. and he doesn't know how many americans might be among the number. we've certainly seen people here who've been demanding the return at, throughout the course of the day. but he is also aware that politically hostage crisis and the presidential elections are not ones that go well together. so he will, when he says that you can, i can speak of everything that's going on. but my administration is working very hard to make sure that those people are return. that there's a number of reasons for that. or that not least of which it is political in the
5:26 pm
domestic from a lot of times somebody challenged fishes, i let spring in now palestinian john list hi. unable to shave a who's joins us from outside. the hospital in con eunice, in southern gaza. we had the us president joe biden talk about a $100000000.00 us dollars in funding for the west bank and gaza for the people that so no clear commitment of a c's file of how a these to get to. and how will people be perhaps taking in and processing all of that? yes, we are still reporting from nasir hospital and han una city and yes, did talk about the the practice of a coming to house city and things on the list. so so far what palestinian think of that it's sort of sort of a pause of the, the, the tax not a ceasefire. not
5:27 pm
a true is not an end of the ongoing work. would you pre it's more fear for palestinians inside javascript. we're talking about a, a card or a human. it's for you and policies in a human. it's for you and for a door open to allow only trucks and medical supplies. the story goes on. but it's going to be followed by the same exact strategy, ongoing bombardment, and there's drugs for talis city and hearing this, it doesn't really make them feel good about what's going to happen next. it doesn't make, feel them safe at all. and we're listening that to how the us present was talking about how i might seize using people as human shields. just took us through the perspective of the average palestinian, where does he feel he or she or the children can go in order to keep themselves
5:28 pm
safe. this is really a difficult question to have that because the problem was with what's going on since the beginning of the war since the beginning of the ears, rice campaign and as one of the doctors put in and he actually had the walk with him through the crew doors of the hospital just looking at the large number of civilians and children's. busy been the main targets appears, drive people to like the israel is a war with civilian is realize up more with palestinian, the children know literally there is no safe place in god from far north to far south people who were asked to evacuated. the northern part of gauze, and namely the city of faith tunnel and that the borderline city of bit lie. a city of jo valley and all the refuge account including gaza, governor 8th, all the way south. ford have not been feeling safe in fox. the vast majority of the
5:29 pm
tax have been concentrated on the south and at, namely the city of brooklyn and son, eunice, and the middle areas as well. right after the bombing of the hospitals, the baptist valley hospital, any sense of security has been shattered to palestinians. in fact, it made some people to make a very, very hard decision. is we are going to die. so why not die in our home? so some of the people started to go back to their homes, either in god, the city or the northern parts. not knowing if they will find their homes as standing or partially damaged, but the fact that there is no sense of security or safety and make it difficult make it difficult for, for people to make any, any rational decision. at this moment. a tiny that has been condemnations by international human rights groups. all right, i'm being called,
5:30 pm
sorry, honey, i'm being told now that we actually need to go to the united nations and assigned to you honey, for updating us on the situation with you and security council has failed to pos, a draft resolution calling for a humanitarian pools in gauze, brazil had sponsored that dropped the canning of 9500 people in his right of the strike on tuesdays. also high on the agenda, brazil's presence louisa, and also to the silver colby attack and unjustifiable tragedy. let's go over to kristen salumi joins us now. from the un headquarters in new york. so kristen, what happened? the expectations were that this text had been bolted down and bolted down. it would pos yeah, the security council had been negotiating on this draft for since friday when brazil 1st started working on it. but it got 12 votes.
