11:03 pm
gaza and condemning attacks by him. us on israel, russia m u k, abstained 1212 other nations including china and friends, voted in favor. i said the bank has today's developments. cottage bodies and body parts strewn across the ground. the result of in his regular strike on either the baptist hospital because it is no is safe and is besieged in case no way is off limits. no way to say correct. some of the images are too graphic to protest. images of dead children. the bodies ripped apart, faces, mute, collected buddies where you strike this far the result into kevin keith children's body parts and bags of my son that you can see here on my phone. my wife just told me he died. he was sitting with us and all of a sudden he disappeared. hundreds of families had sort refuge in the grant of the hospital so that we were told the red cross of the hospital to lift the civilians
11:04 pm
in. i mean, we could get inside of the rockets and missile started folding on all the civilians with it, including women and children who had the bodies dismembered. while no one was stage, it's being described as america heist told from single attack. for decades. hospitals are supposed to be protected under the 1st geneva convention governing the rules of will it states that medical personnel and facilities cannot be attacked under any circumstances. and that's in the despite strike a hospital, that means they have no limitations. they've given the green light to execute all palestinians. that means they can choose his hair as well as their them the out about boss, household and use conference. my goal is, is the health ministry surrounded by the dead. some of the dead children are being held by the relatives. the authorities here want to show the world what is taking place in the goal is to strip the home and how this morning volunteers go through the grounds of the honda to lady looking for belongings and you'll remain in the body parts. how would this attack may be a 10 point in this war against casa?
11:05 pm
i really just have condemned to strike, but it is the palestinians who must live through a good many dogs a think nothing would ever be the same. again, i said big g 0. it's bringing tarik boom, who joins us live from gaza now tarik, when i spoke to last, a strike had just occurred to me by took us through what you know as well. the latest, the latest is really striking time. you want us to tell you claimed the life of find palestinian and wounded more than 60 pounds a city. and so this current moment, this attack was uh, it was targeted to a, to a very densely populated school which is in an adjacent land beside the school. it so this none have been targeted and people inside the school were generally affected by the is what people bomb and for that school during also the last hour, there is a, there are several of compartments took place. and so i think i'll just check one of the main compartments was for a residential building. the other repeating you are you do your p in the hospital
11:06 pm
a compound generally, until this current moment there has been a number of casualties have been reported. i know, but also attack took place in the during the last hour is in tell of how what neighborhood is specifically in the, in the surrounding areas or of course hospital intended, how our neighborhood acted. it maybe in fact, the majority of the reason, a tech support and the surrounding areas of hospitals, which means it can give a clear indication that they use but even button in the site. the goals are still did not really did not really is talk during the last hour and even there at the the level of attacks that have to be intensified during the, the, the last hour. so also to minutes. it's important to mention that the rates of the attacks were really spiking and even without any prior warnings, we show different scenes inside the hospital. the majority of victims with young children. i'm other was looking for her assigned. if you was one of the victims that suddenly she found just her son, a negative with the bed, he was absolutely at the body. she was shouting all the time,
11:07 pm
trying for the last of her son, another woman before the cover. your thoughts right now had just passed behind me. she was crying for the list for the loss of one of her family relatives. the situation right now was really terrifying. people inside the goals and strip are, have been killed in every single area. certainly some desperate times the topic can you describe some of the stories of people that you've been speaking to? how are palestinians they're able to have heart at this point. if anything, the weld palestinians lose lost hop in every single uh, i tend to uh, to reach us. these find out even just thought this current tool. they have been able but didn't every corner, some families, which were even a displaced of from the another s and central area. so because district is to the southern areas were also bombarded as people who are really all innocent and civilians work at work q by the is whether the strikes, young children were playing in the gardens. industries were also largely in just
11:08 pm
a due to the is already ongoing compartment. now you're talking about more about 60 percent of the palestinian casualties are among victor are among young children and women people in sight. the goal is was to, are really afraid to lose their life. even the did they do solely to gather in the same room and oldest to be an old. there was an air strike could really take place in the house. everyone can die or no one can remain and live and experience the level of pain that palestinians right now are really experiencing different uh, different uh, even musical work cuz uh, have been also terrified during the beginning of just a uh, a palestinian up home with a girl in a shift hospital, so was really terrifying. then she just collapsed off so she really so hit brother as one of the victims that had been transferred to the hospital. her perfect stories to her thanks so much to eric bu a zoom in guys of for us. thank it's the agents president meanwhile says he won't
11:09 pm
allow refugees from guns into his country, adding a would make to sign. i put in to the target fees around the whole concept to transfer and 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 has committed to establishing peace. we should remain dedicated to our investment in the peace process. we should come up with a viable solution. if there is a transfer, that's what be to the negative. does in israel last row, do what they wish to do with the minute true operatives in cause a before returning to palestinians box full acts by israel, cussing water and electricity is a means to forcibly transfer palestinians into the sign i put in 0, which we totally reject, let's take
11:10 pm
a closer look now at the raffle board or the so crossing point between egypt and the southern end of the guys a strip. it's guys is are in a lifeline to the outside. well, it's only for small vehicles and movement of people. the other crossing and the south is kyra bu cell and it's located with the borders of egypt, gaza, and is roommates. and it's the so passage for trucks carrying goods, fuel, and aid into gaza. hundreds of tons of a from several countries have been held up in egypt, pending a deal for its safe delivery to gaza and the evacuation of some foreign passport holders through the roof of border crossing. let's bring it out. guests now. richard brennan is the regional emergency director for the eastern mediterranean at the world health organization. he joins us live on skype from cairo. so thanks so much for being on the program. as we've heard tonight that president biden says each route has agreed to let aid into gaza as soon as possible. and yet the us has
11:11 pm
vetoed a security council resolution that would have cold format, humanitarian pauses in the conflict, to allow aid to access the strip. how do you analyze those 2 seemingly contradictory statements? well we're in charge. that's probably the best use the. ready the in the last 11 or 12 days that you won't be able to move. she monitor in a across the border at russell. ready then it's more cybering to know that there's no not going to be seen monitoring phones even in those kind of context. in humanitarian settings, we can do what's called. ready the conflicts, so that names informing belligerence on both sides of the conflict of the geographic court. and that's where you 80 is and where it's going with the
11:12 pm
trust in that they will not target that particular area and allowed the safe. and on his passage of the supplies. so i think it's very important to note that it's not just a matter of getting the supplies across rasa. the supplies that have to be distributed throughout all of casa hospitals, up farmable communities. and that's why we need this d confliction process. so the, the, both sides will respect the neutrality. she mediterranean, certainly a logistical phase which it is the rough of crossing between egypt and gaza is used. and that is a big if we have to say at this point, is it even sufficient, given the scale of the need across sconces or at the moment? that's a great question. um and what we understand and the go stations is still ongoing and not all the details of your friendship,
11:13 pm
but we understand we're kind of stop robert small probably 20 trucks, hopefully tomorrow. and then building up to ideally up to, you know, what we've heard as many as a 100 trucks to day. so i'm not sure but some calculations of, of the needs at this stage. but this would certainly require analysis. we've, we've really just trying to kick the door right, but just to get a few journey across, but then you are rightly indicating now i got access. if we've got sustained access, we need to really do the estimates of what it is replied with respect to sue more sanitation supplies, medical supplies, shelter and, and so on. a trusted will by sickness. richard, the us has been very clear that it will only flow if from us, doesn't receive any of it. now i know that you work for the w t r. so talking from a practical sense, how does that work?
11:14 pm
how do you, as you've been talking about, distributed beside throughout a country that has been inflicted with thousands of, of air strikes there, one correction that works with the w t o i work for w h, i apologize, a, sorry it's been a long night, w, w, h i, you'll have to forgive me that it's been a big 12 days, said, so i, i, apprentice, you understand, go on or so right now is one of the conditions of it. so i'll direct federal federal summit with president l. c. c, about 12 mexican and got his guarantee that he would facilitate the transfer of a into, into gas. but the condition was that the a b transfer. ready by the chips in wordpress, up to the border and then the a be handed over to the, tell us to me in wordpress and then on would. so the distribution,
11:15 pm
as i mentioned earlier. so we, we be, we have to trust the process. we have to trust that the palestinian right presents will distribute the supplies to the intended beneficiaries and recipients. we'll be putting in a monitoring system. we will work with both sides, the addiction and posting and break christmas to determine where those supplies will be distributed. uh, we. ready put in a monitoring mechanism to check that they are received by the relevant hospitals and health facilities. we don't have many people on the ground, so it's very hard to complete, to authorize ation and checks. but that's the best we can do at the moment. we'll develop that monitoring system by the time i went to just briefly, if i may, 1 more question before we let you go, we've seen ambulances, hospitals, refugee shelters hits, how aid work is feeling?
11:16 pm
do they feel like they can carry out? they were a can be protected small i think it where it is everywhere us always doing for really with i don't think it gets much more rowing than in the conditions of costs are right now. we have twice or stopped also. ringback there, and i can tell you, it's absolutely how to see the way that the health care workers in those hospitals are handling the care of the choose, the injured people whose bodies have been torn apart. children who come in severely injured and sometimes kills. i mean, to get up every day and to get to work and provide that bottle services to community it's, you know, the best other it's, it's a really good site, really exciting work and i think up, so then we need to support them. we're very conscious of the needs val, stuff and of all health workers and. ready humanitarian stuff, what's very troubling is exactly what you said. the attacks on health care,
11:17 pm
the attacks on schools, health care must be protected. we appealed to all sides of any conflict to protect health care should never be it's courtney greekmore. thank you so much for your time. origin brennan, regional emergency director for the east administrating at the world health organization. thank you. thank you. moving on down to un security council has failed to pass a draft resolution cooling for humanitarian pause in gaza. the killing of nearly 500 people added guys, a hospital on tuesday was also high on the agenda, the usb side, the draft resolution, which was sponsored by brazil to colleagues the united states is disappointed. this resolution made no mention of israel's rights of self defense. like every nation in the world, israel has the inherent right of self defense, as reflected in article 51 of the un charter following previous terrorist attacks
11:18 pm
by groups such as al qaeda in isis. viscouso reaffirmed that right, this tex should have done the same. kristin salumi has the days developments from un headquarters in new york that you are in. officials are very concentrated still on attempts to get a deliveries in to gaza with or without the security council. the secretary general has called for a humanitarian sees fire on his own. he is in on his way to egypt to discuss that with various players in the region. the u. n. released chief martin griffith is already in egypt working on that. he also addressed the security council today. we're here and calls from the united nations to respect international law, which does demand protection of civilians in a conflict. it also calls for the protection of aid workers and medical personnel.
11:19 pm
and the un is saying that some of 15 aid workers have been killed. several medical professionals have also died in the conflict. so it's very dire situation as far as the united nations is concerned. but again, the emphasis without the security council is still to find ways to get that aid. and i should also point out that while the security council is promising to keep working on some sort of a resolution, russia is talking about going to the general assembly where no country has a veto power like they do in the security council to get a resolution their past calling for humanitarian relief for gaza. you as president joe biden has met with these riley prime minister benjamin netanyahu and tell of if he's supported is ralph's denial of involvement in that attack on a hospital in gaza. our official reports from tennessee it was
11:20 pm
a trip meant to help deescalate the crisis and gas, but it began to unravel before do by even touch. don't entail a be warm hugs to be followed by tough question. said the white house, particularly when you might have tv and issues. but then there was a massacre. i think as a hospital overshadowing everything. the americans about the inquiry into what happened to bite and refused to be endorsing is really denial or deeply said in our age, by the explosion of the hospital and cause of yesterday. and based on what i've seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team. not, not you, joe biden has promised israel it what it needs to carry out it's offensive in gaza and support. clearly welcomed by the countries prime minister with one eye on the american audience is that on october 7th, come 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
11:21 pm
$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 joe biden was meant to leave here and meet with 3 out of leaders and jordan bucks and an extraordinary diplomatic snob. the essentially cancel. i agree that the us president was not prepared to call for a ceasefire, but he did want to ring concessions during his visit with the growing anger at the rise and the number of dead ends you mind attending crisis in a final speech before leaving after this extraordinary visit come by and revealed he'd secured is really cooperation for aids to be allowed to get something since they were getting close cooperation with the government of each of the united nations in that agencies like the wolf program and other partners in the region to get trucks moving across the border as soon as possible. a job items on wavering support for israel has won many admirers here. but in the why the region this
11:22 pm
consent the us isn't using the influence, it has to do more to stop the assaulting guys and stuff. the number of dead from rising island, fisher. i'll just see you to tell it to the us now where protest is rallying inside the capital building. cooling for cease 512 days into the wall between israel and guys. a petty calhane is alive for us. the at that protest, hello, the petty, just to speak to us about who's involved in his protest and what's been happening since last time we spoke of the, well this is, there's been a whole lot of people getting lost if it's a distributed of but basically this is organized, i called your jewish voice for keys. they had a riley earlier in the day about probably more than a 1000 people. i just want to take the scene for you right now. i think i under estimate when i spoke to last, i guess for the to a 100 to a 150 people who were here. this is the kid and i'm, or times 10 house office building. this is we're representing the have the office
11:23 pm
is one to 3 buildings and representatives and the staff was. so you can see here, police just decided to go in person, the person, summer or existing most or not just standing up and getting the zip tied behind their back. let me show you some of the signs. it says that the teacher say, or do say a ceasefire now and not in our names and design services. more in the deb, it's probably like help. so what they're doing is they're demanding a see an immediate cease fire. and really, they're here to try and break through the mainstream media and it's not just, these are the people who came in and they're going to get arrested, the face of 5, because it is by the time of jail most mostly they don't. this is independence out and just to give you a sense. so there are hundreds of people outside protesting as well. the us capitol, right across the way. so yes, the they are protesting that many of the ceasefire get interested for
11:24 pm
heavy just how big of a security breach these days. you were saying to me earlier that you need a pos to get into that particular buildings or how of these civilians every day. people being able to get through such as, i'm assuming a large security presence. i'm sorry, and i'm so glad you brought that up. i was mistaken. that the press release that went out from capital. you said a part of the capital would be closed. so this is a can also study as one person i just spoke with the police officer. he said it's a decent house. it was okay. so you can come in here for the visitors entered, so you have to do some security. so that was by that i apologize for that. so, but you said it's a police campus easy. this is coming. there's a huge police presence. now they're singing and they've been chanting. there's been dancing for really i was speaking to these protesters for the day. and they're just
11:25 pm
frustrated, they say the american media is not telling both sides of the story is very rarely hear from the palestinians on these 3 cable channels. and they have started showing some of the video from gaza. but it's very, very savvy. and these people down by coming here to care the house office building . if you just found out, you can see this is where the media hangs out. so every major channel is here every single day with a camera. so they want to get notice here, they really can help. right, great stuff. thanks so much patty and thanks for clarifying that petty calhane live for state in washington dc that had been protest taking place around the world in support of the palestinian people. demonstrate is gathered outside the us embassy and take care of each hand that was chanting usa shame on and take us police find was a candidate for testers and the strength of his campbell thousands had gathered in

11:27 pm
united states, he also was very adamant that this needs to stop the current situation that is ongoing and unfolding in gaza is not sustainable. and he warns that the situation is going to be spilling out of control and the time is running out. he also urge the united nations and the different authorities to allow humanitarian a to enter into goes out through the roof of border. and he said that this is the most urgent matter at the moment. he also urge other error countries who have diplomatic relations with israel to sever those ties, to close as the embassy and consulates that they have in their countries of long israel and also expelled their diplomats. for now, the reigning officials maintain the positions that the situation is very, very serious, and that it has the potential to spill over into other regional countries.
