2:02 am
but he provided no evidence to support his statement. he also says israel is agreed to allow aid into gaza as soon as possible, but at the same time, the us as veto to draw up the resolution of the un security council. calling for a humanitarian pools in garza, i'm condemning a tax by how mass on israel russia and the u. k. of stained, well, 12 other nations, including china and friends, voted in favor. well, while heading back to washington, the us president says he's worked out a deal with egypt to open the roof of crossing with garza but bottom says damage at the side close by is rainy strikes needs to be fixed, which means the aid might only be able to enter guides by friday, at the earliest, he agreed to have what he would do is open the gate to do 2 things. one right up to 20 trucks. to begin with satterfield wine, bachelors down there in cairo. now,
2:03 am
he's going to coordinate this here as my authority to do is they're gonna patch rove as soon possible trucks to expect to take about 8 hours tomorrow. so they may be nothing roll through until most of the check, very expensive, probably until friday. how does it resolve in jordan joins us live now from washington dc road. so with the president button saying he's worked out a deal with egypt to open the roof or crossing. how significant is this development for us as well as president joe biden? put it to reporters on board air force one on wednesday evening. this was one of his 2 goals that he had set out to achieve on this very quick trip to israel. now everyone has made much of the fact that he was not able to go to amman. jordan to meet with the king, to meet with the egyptian president and with the president of the palestinian
2:04 am
authority. but by and said that he did speak with all 3 leaders because it is critical to try to mitigate everything that has been happening around this crisis in the past 13 days. but that said bite and also stressed that getting aid in to palestinians inside garza is an important humanitarian goal. and that if this works, the 1st convoys of 20 trucks going in on friday to deliver aid that you could see more traunches of aid going in to garza. he also said that there had been progress made on trying to get out those pals standing and americans who are inside goals are right now, but he would not go into details on when those persons could leave the gaza strip. yeah, ross, i'm given president biden's trip to israel earlier. how is it with his planning optimistically in the us that to well,
2:05 am
there had been this growing narrative here in the us about whether the president should be expanding political capital to go to the region in order to try to deal. what with what frightens to be a possible regional war. but when he was asked about a bite and said that this was something that essentially needed to be done. putting the question back to the reporters on board air force one. as for trying to make it through convers, while the president is finding that there is considerable support for the state of israel, there still is no speaker of the house of representatives. and until they can select someone to act as speaker no legislation and certainly no legislation that involves the spending of money can be passed through congress. and so the white house has plants to ask for military funding to support is real as well as ukraine is going nowhere. so it all comes back to the house of representatives and what
2:06 am
members they are decide to do in terms of choosing a new leader. all right, to our residential life as the in washington dc rugs. thank you as well. the president biden earlier met is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu in tell of eve he supported as well as via live and involvement in the attack on that hospital and gaza. but provided no evidence to backup that claim. official reports from tennessee, it was a trip meant to help deescalate the crisis against it. 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 do you mind a teen issues? but then there was a massacre, i think as a hospital overshadowing every 6. the americans about the inquiry into what happened to bite in the fields to be endorsing is really denials are deeply said in our age by the explosion of the hospital and cause of yesterday and based on what
2:07 am
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 guys, a permanent support. clearly welcomed by the countries prime minister with one eye on the american audience is that on october 7th, come us murdered. of 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 joe biden was meant to leave here and meet with 3 out of leaders. and jordan bought an extraordinary diplomatic snob. the essentially cancel. i agree to the us president was not prepared to call for a ceasefire, but he did want to ring concessions during his visit with the going on good at the rise and the number of dead and the humanitarian crisis. in the final speech before
2:08 am
leaving after this extraordinary visit comes, he'll bite and revealed he'd secured is really cooperation for aids. 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 world program and other partners in the region to get trucks moving across the border as soon as possible. job items on waving support for israel has won many admirers here. but in the way to region this consent the us isn't using the influence. it has to do more to stop the assault in gaza and stuff. the number of dead from rising. alan fisher. i'll just need to tell her we, i mean all dozens i've been searching through daybreak at the alley hospital that was hit by his randy asked right on tuesday, maybe 500 people were killed. thousands of civilians. our thoughts have been inside the hospital at the time of the attack and a warning, some of yours may find the pictures. and i said, bags report to study cottage bodies and body parts strewn
2:09 am
across the ground. the result of in use a 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 the children that bodies ripped apart, faces mutilated bodies, ready strike this far the result into kevin, he's 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 that sort refuge in the grands of the hospital. we were told the red cross of the hospital to let the civilians in. i mean, we could get inside of the rockets and missiles started folding on all the civilians to a day, including women and children who had the bodies dismembered. while no one was paid . it's been described the semester heist toll from single attack. for dickens.
2:10 am
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 a types under any circumstances. and that's the thing as if, by striking 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 them the bob boss, hospital and use conference by goals as 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 with how this morning volunteers go through the grounds of a hospitality looking for belongings and, and you know, remain in the body parts. how would this attack may be a 10 point in this war against casa? i really just have condemned to strike, but it is the palestinians who must live through it with many dogs, a thing. nothing would ever be the same. again, i said vague, which is 0. well, it's hard to assume joins us live now from the gaza topic. you are talking to us sadly about more is really strikes on guns that tell us what's been happening time . well during the last hour or 2 from bottom and took place in the
2:11 am
southern areas of the gaza strip, specifically in rough, our district to residential buildings were 11 to the ground by the use for the occupation forces around 20 palestinian were killed that due to that due to, to vote was that tax on different residential areas, these video compartments and the goal is this trip really, really continues every single place. and the goal is this trip has been hatched by the is rarely ongoing strikes. different rates also were carried out in the north of the gauze. this trip is specifically in bel yet refugee camp, or is it didn't show area residential area which is full of population that had to be more to evacuate. meanwhile, people that refused to evacuate, believing that there was there any safe show to end the gaza strip. the, i'm sorry, news that us president joe biden is now worked out a deal with egypt to open the roof of crossing to allow some aid into gaza. what will this mean for people that well,
2:12 am
it has been confirmed by the us administration, that the uh, the, these are the occupation authorities have agreed to allow 20 trucks to enter the goals, districts filled with a humanitarian, 80 bucks 20 uh trucks. only a not yet, you know, off to uh, 15 days of fighting because it will be in till the goal is a strict on friday. uh there are more than uh, 500000 palestinians in the refugee shelters. and as far as that goes, this trip there was around $2300000.00 palestinians. so yes, there are still hundreds of trucks in the egyptian side waiting for further permission in order to enter the goal. is this trip as long as much as a competitor in 8 months into the goal is to stripe the humanitarian crisis might be really mitigated. if the there was such a notable slowing of medical supplies and even human t r u h to the besieged territory, all right, the atomic level as in the, in gaza topic. thank you. the united states has veto to drive to un security council resolution and coding for a humanitarian pause in gaza. washington says it's too early for the counselor to
2:13 am
approve an appropriate response to the crisis. questions lead me as more from you and a headquarters in new york while insisting they were working to get 8 into gaza. those against the united states standing alone blocked the security council from passing a resolution that would do just that. the us and basset, or insisted that the draft was incomplete. 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 of the resolution did condemn. mazda is october 7th attack and the taking of civilian hostages, as well as demanding pauses and the fighting for a deliveries. after several days of negotiations, 12 council members voted for it. many pointing out that civilians,
2:14 am
humanitarian workers and medical facilities must be protected under international humanitarian law. faced with scales, terrorist acts against is rarely civilians. with the forceful reaction to such acts and the never growing humanitarian disaster imposed on gather the council response, we proposed was robust and balanced. you want officials echoed the secretary general's call for an immediate cease fire. without warning, violence could spread throughout the region. i fear that we are at the brink of a deep and they chose obvious that contains a project. 3 of these rarely posted the conflict, if not, of the middle east. as a whole. many members of the security council allowed to keep working towards consensus and a resolution, but russia taking a page from the west play book suggestively bring the issue to the general assembly instead for a vote where no country has veto power. christian salumi,
2:15 am
i'll just say era, the united nations. is there any strikes of targeted areas close to the villages in southern lebanon? it's really missiles are reporting. they've been 5 nick official that is really evacuated. it's townsend on the board of 11 on after repeated exchanged of showing with headphone so the head here on al jazeera, we'll have continued special coverage of the war on god's stay with us of the the route to you by visit capital. it is hot for this time of the year in argentina. hey everyone, so much so that most of the country is under a weather alert for these high temperatures. just the other day come, a general reeve adapted the 2930 degrees. now, we're also tracking out some storms in that southeast corner of brazil,
2:16 am
the eastern side of paraguay meantime to the top end of the continent. here, northwest ecuador, we've got some pretty good pulses of rain here. and we've now got a tropical storm in the eastern pacific. this one is going to intensify into a hurricane as it does tract toward baja, california. i put the red line on there, that's where the track of the storm looks to go over the next little bit. so check back with us on that in time it's hot in california, louis as of 31, l 832. but enjoy it. at least and san francisco because those temperatures will come crashing down. by the time we get to the weekend go figure right meantime, still a saki forecasts for british columbia is that rain moves further inland. so still a few showers in the forecast for vancouver and to the west. we go unsettled around the great lakes. if i take you south of this, we're going to have a developing disturbance just off the coast of the carolinas. as we head toward friday, this will impact the us ne, once again, over the course of the weekend that sure weather update. we'll see you soon. take care the quote to you by visit castle,
2:17 am
freight companies, big passports, international banks, and the proceeds of organized crime. in purple, she's begging p l. a financial award, and somebody was in the picture in a remarkable 3 pos people, the power investigation into a complex, secretive world. 2 journalists go in search of the tale and my fears, 13 months, the longer toss one on a jersey to the the welcome back to the top stories here, there's
2:18 am
a gauze and this i've been searching through daybreak a lot of the hospital that was hit by his radio strike on tuesday, getting near the 500 p protest is condemning the mask uptake into the streets in the west bank and across the legs. yes, president joe biden has met israel 5 minutes continuum in this in yahoo, in tennessee 5 says the pentagon has information the facts of israel's planes. it was known the strong and the he was president says he's worked out a deal with egypt to allow 20 trucks counting a to enter the jobs from the roof of crossing. finding says the 8 miles into guns on friday. that's the earliest. what's the slide from our washington d. c. bureau is middle east. i'm list of my by the oh my good job you with us. let's talk 1st about us president joe biden's trip to israel. some observer say at the bottom the ministration is pursuing diplomacy at the service of israel as well, but events on the ground over to by long before he, even though i ended in israel. so what did you make of the trip?
2:19 am
yeah, i think the button strips to, to the middle east that was not effective by any stretch of the imagination. it's hard for anyone to describe it as a success. the problem going in was that by didn't had already signal, but here's going to be offering nothing. me a whole unconditional support as the way just a monster swore and gauze the one that is, you know, and which is where it was coming, dark primes against civilians cutting off water and electricity, and food from more than 10000000 children. you know, half the population in gaza as children and coming in with that attitude of being okay with a very war crimes that the bottom administration has been extremely critical of when it came to russia's war. and ukraine showed a level of hypocrisy and a level of deference to is really policy preferences here that doomed biden's trip from the get go. and so it was on surprising that in the face of the growing onslaught them because of that there were multiple matters who would not meet with by the it's clearly seemed that it was a bad idea and it's just nothing productive really came over the came of it yeah,
2:20 am
i'm on with the bombing yesterday of the baptist hospital in gaza, getting hundreds of civilians, both sides blaming each other for this horrific of time. but it does highlight though, the importance of the information was and who's trying to win the media narrative here to yeah, absolutely, and there is no question that in this case, obviously we will never know with complete and total certainty without an investigation team getting in on the ground and, and seeing it. however, this really does fit perfectly into a pattern of is really war crimes in which they have bombed civilian infrastructure and residential areas in schools and hospitals in one campaign against gaza after the other. they've done the same in 2014 to them. they've done the same and 220082009. so it would be nothing new here except this particular desktop, the scale of it. and this particular strikes seems to be much more significant than any previous strike, but the action itself is, is unsurprising. we've had human rights organizations documenting in the past and
2:21 am
discriminant coming in his really bombings of civilian areas. and most critically, we've seen time. and again, these really governments simply lie about responsibility for its crimes and deflections, trying to blame palestinians for them. as recently as last year with the killing of the girl, a student, a barclay, where israel trot dependent on the palestinians. but it turned out to obviously be, is really responsibility for it. oh my, what about the response from an arrow boy? let me in the jordanians cancel the bite and stomach without a bleed as well. is that a clear sign of protest? them arab leaders over the us is unconditional support is rep. so i don't think it's so much a protest from the leaders themselves as much as it is signaling the sensitivity of, of the issue. i think a lot of governments in the region, you know, feel burdened by the issue of palestine, but the understand that the anger on the street is very, very real. and they know that the optics of welcoming our president that is endorsing is really war crimes. and this massive onslaught in gaza is going to trigger a lot of anger and that's precisely why they,
2:22 am
they did not care for those optics and signal that this would not be a good idea. you have a situation in which long before. busy this crisis us policy has always suffered from that fundamental feature. and i'm a moral failure of deciding that as well as a country that is above the law and above any rules and gets to behave however at once, without any constraints, without any deference to international. or i have a terry in law without any consideration to policy and human rights. and that has always been a source of deep, deep anger throughout the region. let me get a final thoughts from you. my. how do you think then this conflict would eventually play out? i mean, some experts suggest it could restrict the middle east as we know it. so what will that look like? do you think as yeah, i think it's correct that there is not going to be a return to the status quo. from here we are on one of 2 or 2 trajectories. and unfortunately, the more depressing one seems to be far more likely. which is that garza is going to be largely obliterated. fundamentally, there is going to be a catastrophe of,
2:23 am
of epic proportions. if israel is intent on fulfilling this idea that they can militarily defeat from us, it's implausible, for them to be able to achieve such a huge goal without reaching devastation and gaza on a level that nobody can even imagine yet that makes what we've seen so far seem small by comparison, the alternative to that isn't, is really failure to achieve that goal. something they seem to be incent on, on avoiding. but at the same time, if the behavior is going to be just a little bit worse than it used to be before. we've seen this over and over again, but there is no military solution here that the, this idea that you can pump palestinians into submission never leads to anywhere a good. it constantly just creates the very kind of despair that produces the next generation of militants who are intend on, on revenge killings and so on. and that's the only way really out of this, which is real does not recognize, is to see palestinians as equal human beings are deserving of the same freedom and dignity that is rarely to enjoy. and to afford that independence and self
2:24 am
determination to them. but that's not the directory where these are, the government is actually heading, and unfortunately, that's not what the bottom administration is. signaling that they're interested in seeing. so we are on this path towards more death and destruction at, at a scale that we have not seen before. so my, but i really good to get your thoughts and your analysis on this contract. thank you very much. indeed, i'm a thank you now and go over the hospital master game guns that has triggered protests across the occupied westbank with hundreds of palestinians rallying in the streets. just as john stratford reports from my off to the we salute the how most brigade states on hundreds of people gathered in central room over one of the growing number of protests in towns and cities in the occupied westbank. israel's war on garza is uniting people across the palestinian territory in the shop were one people in the west bank and gaza. our blood is one. we're in small jails. we suffer from raids and settlers were locked in. we kept moving.
2:25 am
settlers attack farmers and drop off trees. i feel let down by the air. people don't count on the western world because israel is their projects, not only the us project, it's a british, french, german, european and american project to protect their interest in the middle east. if i'm not just the, we're not here to say gold is with gaza, with part of gas or in the battle itself. they try to time us for so long people escape. but the anger tips pulling people just want the voice to get her gauze as children now to the blood flowing and cancer is house kind of thing and security full season struggles to dispose. hundreds of protest is on tuesday night fires well, it's across ramallah to i guess, and live far into the believe to be from promised indian government supporting the demonstrates as they were demanding the palestinian president. michael moved up bus routes from the jewel damian capital and immediately when he was scheduled to meet
2:26 am
us president joe biden, they accused the palestinian leader of not doing enough to protect the people of garza from his rails. i'm sold enough international diplomacy. they said it never works. the situation comes when a bus announced he was coming back to ramallah and he had cancelled the meeting with the us president. that is the risk pictures of israel is attack of the hospital in garza which killed nearly 500 people sank in protest continued wednesday. in hebron we use rocks and ties. sean sinks with our souls and blood. we sacrifice ourselves our alexa irish magenta. and these are not just mass cruise, this is a genocide, they want to and natalie at the palestinian people, not just casa, we know will be next to that will also protest and back to the home record for an immediate display on record to record the word to, to have message and record it just
2:27 am
doesn't have the freedom and that dependence and their sense of garza can take used as a war waiting here for people. and they all combined with the demonstrations are the only way that they can fly, like the decades of suffering. the have a good on the israel is ok patient and try and stop is rails relentless killing of the friends, families and fellow palestinians. the cause of the call stuff without a 0 look. well they've been processed, taking place around the world in support of the palestinian people demonstrate as gathered outside the us embassy in tokyo, in japan. they were charging usa shame on you into key a police find water cabinet protest as on the streets of stumble, thousands of gathered in front of these really consider demonstrate as an india describe what's going on in palestine as a genocide. members of
2:28 am
a muslim moving ization, gavin, and chin i. and in the philippines, people kind of interested in flags and candles protested these really s bikes on that hospital. in guns. in washington, dc, protest is from an anti will group jewish voice for piece of stage, a city, an inside of congressional building project. elaine has moved from capitol hill in the us capital in the building. many of them this happened maybe 6 were named you serious use fire now came in to be arrested. this all started at a few blocks away earlier today. really all
2:29 am
one gentleman. he said his grandparents are bought the house for now you are doing i see my job as carrying on their legacy as the jews who fundamentally see their role as standing up for state less than impressed people all throughout the worlds. and i see no better way to do that, then fighting for peace and to cease fire and gaza today. the take one more look at the one by one just to give you a sense of how different this sentiment is from the elected officials building by one representative. it has to offer a ceasefire. you know,
2:30 am
well, thousands of people have holes, have been protesting outside the us, and his really embassies in the jordanian capital assignment been jervey reports from a month the course. jordan, angry protest is in this thousands have continued to count against is really a tax on palestinians. the because protest outside these really embassy in, i'm the jordan and security forces that prevented demonstrations from reaching the embassy compound. according to the media, the building was evacuated on day one of the war and gaza. damian's in front of the news from all sections of society. if they can do this piece of to these really attack on the baptist hospital. and because of the school defendants of people in the
2:31 am
