1:04 am
this trip has to be bombarded by the, is really a straight to all these current moments. there is no any potential hope for palestinians to reach a ceasefire that can you prevent or at least a stop that is very ongoing strikes. target just looking at some of these pictures and the often loss of that bombardment. it's always been very, very dog, quite a trying to help people get out from under the rubble. and we know that the siege is ongoing supply. is that limited? i want to ask you about the age that's supposed to be on really, you know, it's desperately needed. still nowhere near enough. what are you hearing from people that are, are they hurtful that it will make a difference? well people, so the goal is this trip are really waiting. the entry of humanitarian nights the, the 6 territory with the ongoing is very slow to avoid is and the prevention of a new entry office inch lights and main medical supplies to the, to the knowledge district. people are really believing that these kind of humanitarian aid will relatively mitigate the level of humidity or any crisis
1:05 am
spring wildest amounts of trucks that to each of the goals, districts still limited. there are hundreds of other a. there are hundreds of other troops are waiting in egypt and signed to be allowed to float into the gaza strip of people inside the guns district. believe that they really need more humanitarian aids in order to be able to cope with the is with the is read the ongoing attacks and even to be able to bureau point the current situation. as you say, tara is attacks the ongoing, we know that have been constant strikes in the south, including near the border and rough on where you are. and con eunice. presumably, some of these strikes would have to stop at russell in order for the trucks to even be able to get in. well, it's so important that you submitted the bottom. it must be stopped at least to more morning in order to allow for the human. it's very nice as you mature and trucks to into the goal is a strict. alyssa is where you are taps when the goal is to continue. might really, let's say of narrow the options of the entry of the medical trucks to the pc shirt
1:06 am
tree because the palestinians are waiting these trucks to enter. the goal is this trip in order to use the humanitarian age for surviving. and the is as the is really occupational button and treating, continue and continues inside the goals, district, the situation, what's really get much cool deterioration talked about as i'm on the ground for us, the in the gaza strip. thank you so much terracon and to stay safe. yourself keep giving us as well is continuous bombardment have cause a has so fall, killed 3785 palestinians. according to the un, nearly a course of homes, there was also been damaged. u. s. presidential adviser says around 20 trucks will be permitted to go into gaza from the roof of crossing with egypt on friday. that 8 organizations are saying, this isn't enough for the move in to 1000000 people and gaza. russell said, has no a stimulus trapped in does a fine, numerous is read, it strikes
1:07 am
a heat and 7 areas across the density populated region is salt. and par law, which is rand had declare see the little we came from kansas city. they told us to come to the south, so we came to the south. we found a striking, intensified in the south. we stayed in a house in front of us with strikes behind us. well dry. there's no safety. there's no less safe thing because you have to be ready to die. just to stay in your house . is ralph tools toasting is to leave milton garza and had to what we're supposed to be safe zones in the south. but some eunice, a city in soto and guys that were hundreds of thousands of palestinians had sold shelter, was among the police, a seat by relentlessly spread a strife. comedies, all shattered, and buildings reduced to rubble. this family has lost at least 13 members, including children, to do a states and combatants,
1:08 am
or hon. eunice kim was of these read a due to a low egypt to deliberate, limited to meditating a to gaza menu of causes. 2.3000000 residents have cut down to one me that they then resorted to 3 conductive water as israel. a couple of the live saving essentials or more than 100 trucks or waiting near the rough crossing on the different side. but it's not expected that 8 would answer, guys are safely, rough. a crossing is the only way for a to enter this way. it has become a focus of the conflict between israel and how much has tremendous stadium crisis gets worse. the me and it's not a i came from, is may leah and have been here at the roof of board across thing for a palestinian brothers since the start of the war. we are staying here to palestinians and we will not leave until the 8 ends as palestine to gaza. area near the river crossing has been boomed twice by israel sober 2nd and wednesday is ready to raise or residential buildings or to at least 20 pedestal.
1:09 am
use of palestinians, you guys are no waiting for much and you didn't mention it but it seems unlikely to res, spirits in the decision and clean what i'm seeing is move and everything else are focused on surviving israel's rights, which is you will ahead of the world health organization says they're ready to move, emergency supplies into gaza as soon as they are allowed to. we will come observe this announcement yesterday that it will not rule could be in 3 or 4 times food and medicines. and 2 guys are from egypt. fuel is also needed for hospital generators, ambulances, and decided nation plants. and we had to use, we had to add fuel to the live saving supplies, allowed to inter guys attracts loaded and ready to go. we had working with egypt and published,
1:10 am
i am very interested in societies to deliberate our supplies into guys. as soon as the fact grossing is open, hopefully tomorrow as well. there's been a drone, unreal cause attack on the n o. also, database that's located in the western and the province and a rock in whose new s and all the international forces in the west multiples lost what had inside the base. meanwhile, in a separate incident, the u. s. navy says it's intercepted 3 missiles and the northern red c depends again says they believe this was a who's the attack launched from yemen? i'm not preliminary evidence suggests the drones and missiles were potentially headed to was israel. the crew of the guided missile destroyer, us as carney, operating in the northern red sea earlier today, shut down 3 land attack cruise missiles and several drones that were launched by to the forces in human this action was a demonstration of the integrated air and missile defense architecture that we have
1:11 am
built in the middle east and that we are prepared to utilize whenever necessary to protect our partners and our interest in this important region. there were no casualties to us forces and none that we know of to any civilians on the ground. information about these engagements is still being processed and we cannot say for certain what these missiles and drones were targeting. but they were launched from human heading north along the red sea, potentially towards target's in israel. also you have a transience following developments for us from washington. but 1st let's speak to mark, went up the why he and he's in the a rocky capital bank. that was what i know. we got no details from the pentagon in that print press conference on what's just happened in the last few hours at n l i said, what do we know right now? well, it is just the speed of a tax started thing you as a ministry facility is a, has been analysis and claimed by administrative functions aligned with iran. the
1:12 am
reason to attack targeted, i, in the said, admitted to base in the west of the province of unbar and the security sources. india say that a civil bless us were heard inside the base. the attack was cut it out by both drones and the missiles. meanwhile, this is the 3rd attack you as submitted to the facility. is it targeted within the last 24 hours? the member? yes, of the day at the same ministry base and in a said and also another us submitted to you based on the rock gold and how do you manage the base were targeted and the admitted c faction back to what your locals, this lemme resistance claimed responsibility for that tax on wednesday and on thursday and on wednesday, according to your assistance on the command of the attack caused my, you know, injuries within the ministry, personnel,
1:13 am
older or the coalition forces personnel. so this also coincides was a public and go inside iraq protest stages across the country and several other provinces at a showing get. so the data deal with the guys and condemned and get it the minutes we campaigned them about the men's campaign bye as well against the rise and also at trying to put pressure on the united states. those top backend israel, as you know that this is also coinciding with other attacks targeting us submitted to the facilities in the region, namely at 10 minutes a base on the border between syria, jordan and a rock. and this also happens as the us navy worship intercepted civil missiles and the southern, the red sea, small side of the why his desk. with the latest on that for us, from a rock, let's not speak to our correspondence. you have or times the he's the cost developments for us from washington dc. she had a whole range of lines from the pentagon. what more have we been hearing from them
1:14 am
and not press conference? i think the most striking thing was how pat ryder was, a pains not to link all these attacks or link them with the conflict in goals. are you not right? have said that as far as he was concerned, the conflict in his words was, was what was limited to that between israel and gaus. he, he, why he said that was an ops uptick in drone activity in iraq. and so, right, he wasn't connecting, connecting these attacks. i mean, interesting with that done, you haven't been deception of the read seen deception of the drones and the missiles, if you think about it, you know, he says the information is still being price. that's as far as the motivation for what he said, well, who is the, the, the, who's the forces sending those drones and missiles. but if they were indeed heading towards israel, that would mean them that the us is now acted militarily on behalf of is role in the conflict. they've actually inside of themselves, directly into the conflict,
1:15 am
and then also be supplying weaponry to these, right? so that would be rather significant, and maybe that's one of the reasons why the, the, the public and his opinions to say the information is still being so they can praise us. what more do we know about that incident she had? because obviously, as they're saying, it could have been a very serious development the back, i mean, all the information that we have is what you just heard, that the missiles and the dreams were fudge northwards of all over the red feed towards, towards potentially as well. a decision was made on the, the us as connie, to to intercept intercept those projectiles. but they're not explicitly looking for now with israel, but they all putting it outside the they were to be heading in the direction of israel. so yes, potentially very significant. but once again, pop, right, a would not commit any of this would be with the war and goals, right? but he was, he was continuously saying that for you as a pains to avoid further regional spill or vine,
1:16 am
you can see why. because clearly if, if there is a multi poem regional offensive our games not just as well but, but us assets in the, in the region. we've had a lot about, has boulder in the capabilities. and as well as, for example, to hit to strike us. and as well, you know, it would be a little more was escalation. so for now, the pentagon, just repeating the line over and over again. we don't see a connection. and but the for now as far as i can. so the conflict is limited to between israel and how most of the keep on saying that, even as we see the attack officer attack of attack in the image of this, it was here. she everytime say there with elisa signs for us out of washington dc. thank you. she had, well, joining us live now also from washington is just reading that he's in jonesville extra georgetown universities of justice and peace program. just just how much concern is there in the us right now that this could be well, could become or is going to become a much wider, potentially protracted will. and one with us involvement or israel's already
1:17 am
made it clear the invasions a larger scale long term attack on palestinians and gaza, potentially lasting months. and if there is a regional conflagration, i think we have to attend the blame for this squarely on the, by the ministration. which since an entr office a few years ago has attempted to put the issue of palestine on the back burner. and hope that things didn't boil over. this is the result of a fail policy in which the us has deferred time and time again palestinian freedom and supported israel's depression in apartheid policies toward the palestinian people. so i'm not at all surprised to see things we went over right now, but i'm extremely concerned about the degree to which the united states is providing israel with a very, very bright green lights to attack intel,
1:18 am
palestinians in the gaza strip with potentially genocidal implications. and intentions on the part of the israeli military. it's really an unprecedented situation that harkins bath all the way to 1948 and then that. but when it's rail 1st expelled in forest palestinians out of their home on a massive scale. i'm very concerned because of the us support. we could see even worse today, just we all set to hear from president 5 and then just on the to well as an a special address to the nation from the oval office. i mean, i can't remember the last time he does that. what does that say about how much he needs public support for his decisions right now? it always seems an extraordinary amount of effort by the, by the administration to try to mobilize support for israel attacks on gaza, the tightening cj on palestinian civilians in the gaza strip. it is widely expected
1:19 am
that tonight ask congress for the weapons package that includes probably $10000000000.00 in weapons to israel. that's more than double the amount that the united states provides to israel in a normal year. and let's be very clear. these us weapons are already being used by israel to commit terrific war crimes against the palestinian people, especially in the gaza strip. potential crimes against humanity are being committed by us weapons by the israeli military. and we know that if the united states provides israel with a huge amount of new weaponry as a result of presidents president biden speech. these weapons undoubtedly will be put to use right away by israel to continue its genocidal actions in the gaza strip . which really makes the united states that much more complicit in israel's
1:20 am
oppression of rude talary toward the palestinian people, just when it comes to wealth and support. the white house is obviously all sorts of washing q and, or, and ukraine. we know that they're all results constraints when it comes to providing weapons and ammunition. so knowing that, how far could us support for israel go, is that not a limit as well? a $10000000000.00, a confusion of new weapons to israel would certainly be a new record for any one single appropriation of weapons to israel and at this point present. and by has made it quite clear. there's no limit on the extent of us support for israel's actions in the gaza strip. so as we're seeing in ukraine, the requests for more and more weapons are coming fast and furious. so it's very possible that yes, we'll see even more weapons requests in future weeks in future months. as israel continues this unprecedented assault against palestinian civilians in the gaza
1:21 am
strip, just as that bombardment in casa continues. have you noticed a shift of tone or opinion in the us, not only from leaders and the white house, but pops more broadly from the public over the last 12 days? we've definitely seen people out on the streets, protesting in solidarity with palestinians who are facing this bombardment and besieging it. we're starting to see cracks in the here to for unanimous support for israel in congress. a few days ago, representative corey bush introduced a resolution in congress, demanding a ceasefire now and for the provision of humanitarian aid to palestinians in the gaza strip. that resolution now has the support of 15 members of congress. but you know, we've seen from the, by the administration that they've issued guidance to state department officials not to talk about a ceasefire. they're growing numbers of members of congress who are concerned about
1:22 am
saving lives and safety for everyone. and you have to buy the administration just calling these members of congress reprehensible for wanting to save innocent lives, palestinian and is really like, it shows you the degree to which us policy under the, by the administration is so skewed and is really unprecedented in the degree of support that is being provided to israel right now, both neural rhetorical and material in this unprecedented attack on palestinians in the gaza strip. tougher isn't there, and i don't to that trad, georgetown universities justice and peace program. thanks so much for joining us. what else is there and share your thoughts? josh? thank you for having me. what speaking of international support is around the bush as prime minister, wish you through knock has met with saudi arabia is crown prince mom and been sound on in the capital. re add an earlier, he visited israel to demonstrate his country's backing for the israeli government
1:23 am
and to push push, amount of hearing aids to be allowed into gaza. not much i'm dream has been following the day's events for upon his arrival in israel on thursday, u. k. prime minister wishes to act, declaring his unwavering support as a whole on hand to express my phone as archie with these right. if you have suffered amongst people who with a terrorism and i want you to know the united kingdom, i know i found with the 1st step for student i was a meeting with is really president issac heard sock then he was off to meet his is really counterpart benjamin netanyahu at a joint press conference in west jerusalem. that's in yahoo! we think so now i can make clear how essential it is to have his back and i value your support. and the fact that you are here, we must join together. that means that this has a long war and will need your continuous support. on to next agenda,
1:24 am
an attempt to deescalate the conflict, ensure the delivery of humanitarian aid to the gaza strip and see the british nationals trapped in gaza are able to get out sooner. back reiterated the you case position that israel has a right to defend itself. but he also said that should be done in line with the international law left on mentioned was how israel has cut off fluid fuel and water to gauze, and that many would consider that to be a breach of international law. so next trip to israel came one day after a visit by us presidential biden, with both leaders, pressing israel to allow the establishment of a humana, terry, and cory doors and dressed. 28 trucks are expected to enter gauze via egypt as early as friday. but on thursday it was really bombardment, the continued meaning that each and every hour an already diary, humanitarian crisis, only grew exponentially worse. how much i'm doing my just either occupied east jerusalem. israeli forces have killed at least 12 palestinians and the occupied
1:25 am
westbank. after conducting res, across several cities, that one of the most expensive raids took place inside the nor sounds refuge account needed. abraham has worn out from ramallah. it's dangerous for palestinians to move inside. this refuge account placed under is really per few since thursday morning. counting the debt is difficult and is really drawn targeted . a group of palestinians of new ships needs to cut them because really say the fighters tell us city and see. i'm going to kill a certain homes into ministry for destroying roots, coughing, water, and electricity, little signs. the rates will end soon. this video was filmed in the 1st hours of the read. 16 year old to have him eat, has been shot. the course to help him. the 2 questions the father was rescued.
1:26 am
the song that there, what's the question to that? just see that it took them more than 90 minutes to get to the home. it was already too late for the making of job harder. we still can't get into the injured people inside the account, including children. refugee camp houses dozens of palestinian fighters and is regularly targeted by sweetie. forces searching for armed groups is really forces exchanged fire with fighters injuring some is really soldiers, but the majority of palestinians are on our hearts yet the refugee camp has been undergoing a tough campaign by these rarely forces for months. now they've been damaging the infrastructure, arresting people, reading homes and destroying roads, which increases people suffering like is that it on thursday, 120 palestinians with invested in rates across the occupied left bank, killing and enjoying several others. from the city is here. say that again,
1:27 am
noises in grief with god, the processions are making their way through the streets of drama. la one is for 21 year old mind is really stuck up there. attracting is for a 13 year old the city and who was the iris to have suicide. since the beginning of this escalation, the prisoner society says, is really forces everything that he's 850 policy needs of the up to fight west bank . people here see it's bringing back memories of the 2nd. the default the win is really invaded the occupied westbank in the early 2 thousands need that, but he just need a demo deal to fight with banks. that's where the strikes have also targeted areas . a close to villages and sell them 11 on miss ons will find it has beloved positions they accomplish ruba, as well as also evacuated towns along that border with lebanon after a patient exchanges a fine. well, let's be trying correspondence on
1:28 am
a how shall he joins me now from the cora and southern 11 on ali, even keeping an eye for us on that for the for the last couple of weeks. do you think things were escalating every day? those? uh and you uh, escalation, everyday receive that the a consistency and the number of attacks is increasing from the court where we are to refresh you by the way you just spoke about the is ready showing a has the loss been a talking is really managing positions with the and t time kit guy did miss size on daily basis today, only there are several minute free positions that the has the law i talked and the same time as what has been showing the towns on the villages that on the board. the lines, however, this escalation is still contained and we've been saying this for the past few days
1:29 am
and still contain but it's the, the, the, the way the attacks are being launched from both sides are becoming stronger and much dangerous, especially when it comes to civilians. now, for example, uh today, uh, or at least mid like, uh today, which is like 24 hours ago is really strikes targets. it has beloved positions in several areas around the south from here, from the quarter to a strikes, to cut a shoe by to kill them. this is giving us significance, how things might be changing, especially if that is, if there is a human price that's being fade, because this is a pushing both sides for more retaliation. today, if we are going to take into consideration the number of people killed over the liberties for the, for the, for the past 10 days that are allowed 20 people more or less. most of them,
1:30 am
of course, a fight the from says one law. i don't 15 fight those whether from the is i mean she had or how mass or civilians for the for now with a 2 days late this casualties, we have 4 civilians that a lot of killed over the past 10 days amongst the civilian casualties. there was an incident very recently with is ran a ground forces, right, and the civilian was killed. what more do we know about what happened there? while the fact is that the group of the journalist, indian journalist and 3 liberties civilians went close to and is ready ministry post, i call that i'm bad. and that's a to a to what's the, the eastern sector from that have been east border with is really a, it seems that there was a stock in the, in the and then across fly. i'm at the, the wedding, the con, the door close to the is ready position,
1:31 am
and one of the civilians with the journalists that cru watkins now later on the united nations, the unit for the united nations forces and 11 on. busy of the natives. yeah, definitely back the, the journalist, sunday lebanese the civilians. 2 of them were injured and handed them back to the bodies on me. i have some now with the latest for us from the southern 11 along the ground. thank you so much. i. as well, still a head here on out of here without continuing a special coverage of the war on garza as a greek orthodox charges hits. and the latest is right here at the the hello good to be with you right off the bat. let's give you an update on our tropical storm in the gulf of tonkin. it is swirling rain around. china is high,
1:32 am
9 island, northeast vietnam and south west china. so think you non profits for example, and it's just parked itself here, bringing out all that moisture inside mainland china. we've got this north barely breeze. i mean, in shanghai, you could see gas up to 50 kilometers per hour on friday, but it's dropped down the temperature and boiling to 90 and you should be $2526.00 . this time of the year. speaking of cold, we had a cold front punch across the korean peninsula, temperatures down here. and now this french will do the same to japan's main island of hunt. you. so keep your eye on tokyo. you're down to 21. as we head towards saturday is cold front slices across. now for this part of the southeast asia, usual showers and storms through sumatra and borneo. but i gotta take you to australia all about the heat from the kimberly to the red center, to the se. but it's not gonna last long. we've got a southerly buster at a later temperature drops by 10 degrees on saturday. some cloud and
1:33 am
a few showers for south australia and victoria states as well. for new zealand, no weather alerts to speak are pretty typical spring weather, but temperatures above average and kids spend 2500 to friday. the latest news as a to we got the northern gauze districts to the south end cells have still been ongoing details coverage constantly being fired from gauze of been intercepted by the iron don't from around the world of the palestinians. the street has been at least 2 or so many politicians want to be the republican party candidate for the any stand, a chance it gets donald trump, if our planet is burning and we're running out of time, why aren't we doing more to deal with climate change or american politics just
1:34 am
getting to your wife, intuit, stream for most americans because it can look you as part of the bottom line. we know what's happening in our region. we know have to get to places that others can know as far as instead of going or the way that you tell the story is what can make a difference the the welcome back to what you know to 0. let's remind you about top stories for south a greek orthodox church, and garza has been hit by as really, as strikes me at least to palestinians as believe that thousands of people are still trust that under the rubble, many of them internally displaced mostly christian palestinians,
1:35 am
who were sheltering in the church, which is fine minister wishes to knock has met with saudi arabia as conference mohammed been so long in the capital v as its a 2nd stop on his middle install, which also included visits is rep as well as agreed to allow 20 trucks of humanitarian aid into gaza from the russell crossing with egypt on fridays. but i don't want to say sions to say it's not enough and there's no guarantee it will even be distribution. i always now speak to joy, sol junior. she is the general secretary of the american friends service commission, nobel peace prize winning quaker organization, working in jobs that since 1949, she joins us now from bethesda, and maryland. joyce, let me ask you what you thought when you heard about the strike on, on this greek orthodox church tonight. yes, thank you. oh, you know, the place of worship they ought to be. and we know them historically to be the
1:36 am
ultimate sanctuaries, where when people go there to see shelter that they know that they are protected. and it's was to me this continuous targeting indiscriminately is the ultimate criminal act. those who feel the most vulnerable are seeking refuge in churches. this church is the only one of the oldest churches in the world and the who we have in gossip. there's a rich history of people living together. most lives, christians and even choose before 1948 and, and, and this, you know, we, that, and this history is being destroyed basically as well. this wonderful, precious dear history is being destroyed. and i thought about this besieged christian community, and it's sheltering in that church going bear with their children, seeking refuge, and they've been calling us as an international community for health,
1:37 am
for decades. they have been under a blockade for 16 years, and we have not heard their call and we left them down time and time again. and so the, the, in the, in the international community, you know, we need to stand by or people worship, 1st included when they are calling us to, to support them to stand by them. and this is not happening it's, it's not ok. it's not ok in pittsburgh smart. ok here. it ought to not be ok anywhere. you know, and, and this, and we see a history of the israeli government, you know, targeting more targeting churches and in the west bank included, you know, then it's a pretty search investment that was, was attacked in 2002 during the 2nd uprising. and so this is not you to and you have legs spinning on, spitting on christian programs in jerusalem, desecrating graves and cemeteries, and the. ready tax on us
1:38 am
a mosque and jerusalem at this is not new. and, and so, but i also wanted to say that while, you know, we, we, we, we are calling for our governments the us government because we see that the us government is complicit in this. they have not heated those calls and they have not called for a ceasefire. this is on them to the end. and so we are encouraged, somewhat encouraged by a good talk, a few minutes here in a coming in. but you know, it's one of the trucks at all, for 2200000 people. i mean one joke and so that there has to be action there to immediately seized a call for a ceasefire and ensure that lives are preserved and enjoy a suspicion of a when you and i spoke a few days ago,
1:39 am
you had stuff still on the ground there and cause a holiday doing to oh is there they're not doing well every day i receive a text message of how they have moved. they have been on the move from one place to the other and it is not, it's non stop. i'm going to read you a text from one of them today, and it says, i hope it's well as we already lost her house. i know nothing about my friends and relatives and it's hard to get the clean water. now. everything is getting worse and worse. i want this to end either way. if they kill us now, it's so much better and consuming us slowly like this. and this is how our staff are dealing with it. and it's, yeah, and it's not it's, it's not just our staff, it's 2200000 people going through this and using relatives. one of the, one of our staff is mother is shock. he's. he has 5 daughters. he's not how,
1:40 am
how can he's splits his time to be in the hospital or appearing for his mother and, and making sure his wife and daughters are, are safe. and so this is, this has to stop the international community. the us government needs to ensure a ceasefire is in place immediately at a 3 minute couse. so as we know, we know that the test that has been caused for a cease fire from some places, not all the other day. you and i also talked about going division, i'm good and vengeance and how about was feeling a lack of compassion on so many size since we spoke so many more people have died this and so much more suffering. is that you think space for compassion now? oh, forgiveness i'll as we have to believe that we have to believe in our common humanity that the, there's no other asked or but compassion of the power of love as you know, as
1:41 am
a way for organizations we believe in the power of, of love and the power of non violence, but we also believe in people's right to resist and so, and so that has to be wrong. i have been in all of the people coming together, also calling for a ceasefire, calling for governments. but it's, it's, it's that the people can do so much is the leader as it's the. yeah, the decision makers, the policy makers that really need to find the courage whenever you find that compassion in their car, to, to do to do the people. right. these are human beings who are being slaughtered every day, and this has to stop choice sal, journey of the general secretary of the american friends service committee speaking to us from bethesda, maryland. thank you so much for joining us again joyce. and we really hope that you will start from the ground to all safe and well,
1:42 am
thank you very much. thank you. whole as a, as in speculation, go about a ground invasion in garza al, correspond to read the book is in the is really coastal city of ask along where troops have amassed near the border. wisconsin were here in the city of ash cologne . it is around 60 kilometers away from believe 13 kilometers away from guys. this is one of the most attacked seats is in is right by iraq. it's coming from guys that we've been told that around 200 rockets landed here. you can see some of the damage in the buildings around this area in the cars. most of the people we have spoken to say very shock. so trying to recover or with what happened here. we've been talking to some of the people in the municipality, and they believe that the situation would only get worse. we are waiting for the next step. so for the army and the fun that a we, we act. so i'm not in the army anymore. so like, you know, it's here what is going to happen, but we know that is, well, it's not going to be
1:43 am
a show side by all means. and by and by, oh, the sign is going to be weeks, months is whatever it looks like. we are not going to be able to have it before we can go back to a safe is on here in southern is well, there's a clear belt up. we have seen tanks and i'm more vehicles and soldiers getting to this part of the country. the government has expended the military so in a few days ago we were able to make it closer to the border with guy. so now we're not able to do that. most of the towns around all of this areas had been evacuated, or there's only military personnel or security personnel, or officials. it's not here yet whether a ground defensive will take place. but certainly there's lots and lots of military forces that are facing garza getting ready for what it looks like a ground impatient. most of the people we have spoken to see, see here, say that they do support a ground invasion. and what is evident is that everyone here is getting ready for our next stage of this war. that if i will,
1:44 am
i'll just see to ask along what is rules? defense minister you have kalonde has vis a troop stations nichols. and he suggested that a ground invasion could be neary a definitely between but there we trust you and count on you is on the carry on training while there is time get organized, be prepared. the command will. com. that's our thanks guys. we count on you. good luck, and anyone who now sees garza from a distance, we'll see it from the inside. i promise you will not speak to him on con, hey joins us now from occupied east jerusalem. and ron, just listening the promise that they will see the inside of cause a very soon how immune into the ground defensive to what is now a question of when this happens rather than if it happens. now you so much calling to raise a bow that in the outskirts of because the strictly so the build up of all the troops that it looks like these riley's, i've now got a ground defensive, pretty much ready, but it's going to be a very difficult fight well,
1:45 am
they going to have to do is take it all to have to go in to goes up, establish a bridge head that will be where the supply line is, how they get weapons and how they get through to the soldiers in those soldiers event on the ass suppose gonna have to fight that way through civilian neighborhoods to try and achieve the stated a, which is to get rid of thomas complaint. it's a right now it's about getting the is really public ready for this ground offensive . and it's not just, you know, collab, the defense minister. we've heard from benjamin netanyahu as well, who said, i'm here with fighters from the golan unit. they came from all like the country. fighting like lions, you're ready to continue. we will win with all for us. you're ready, all the people of israel stand behind you. it's that kind of language that is now taking over. and this is about getting people ready for this. now it's not just handing this to your comment, who's become under the something back age? who's going to be one of the front line forces that we will defeat them on the lines? it will be difficult at long intense. everybody is now talking about the fact that
1:46 am
this is going to be an easy fight that it might take weeks. it might take months to actually get into the causes, trip, and achieve those stay to the ends. but these are messages designed for domestic audiences. that message is designed for the is re, these, they know that that are very notices, right? these people who actually don't quite believe that benjamin that's in, you know, who is the right leader for this. there's a lot of political support for him right now is a one time leader. but it was only a few months ago where people calling 1st out full. so this is now benjamin netanyahu getting his leadership together, his military leadership together and say, i'm strong enough to fight this will. and like i say it's down or the question of it is a course of went, oh speaking all those minute training leadership, i understand the defense minister kalonde. he met with his german count upon. do we know what they talked about as we do? they talked about the fact that the state to the aim is to get rid of the last that they will prevail. it was very much
1:47 am
a conversation with germany with showing it support its whole heartedly wholehearted support. and israel had is not just here in israel where the germans are coming out and saying that we support as well as right to self defense. the with back from them completely in germany. ready itself, they're actually tracking down on pro palestinian demonstrations are almost like cracking down on people waving the, the palestinian flood. there are a number of countries the us products and gym. and he in particular that are completely backing and problems as well, rather than a completely back in israel. and benjamin netanyahu is relying all that he calls them the civilized nations. so we've already seen senior german leaders come into israel without seeing up his story effects every 3 or 4 days that has been a german leader of last week within is rarely itself. and that just goes to show you that there is support was form that support types. we don't know, it's likely that the germans are offering military aid to these readings. but we
1:48 am
con, confirm that the certainly the simple, this is the iran calling with the latest for us from occupied the story center. thank you and run as well as this all continues. our correspondence, stephanie deca has been to the is really city of jaffa, whether usually bustling mixed population of palestinians and israelis has gone silent. we've come to job for to get a sense of how people feel here it is essentially a mix town between is really policy and is really how this thing and workers here and also tourism is a major source of income. but everything pretty much, a lot of shops are shots, there is no one in the restaurant where the striking is that nobody wants to talk to us, the palestinians. we've tried to speak to tell us they're afraid to express anything on camera. this is also in line, there's been a rest of any palestinian or is really policy and that has shown support with the policies against what israel is doing in dollars a one woman we met from steroids. she sheltered at home with our family for 3 days,
1:49 am
didn't dare leave our house following that attack by him. us also didn't want to talk on commerce, saying she was waiting for the war to end and actually won mine. very aggressive came to us and also as well, you know, why didn't you tell the truth and media is against israel. what they did to us was barbaric. and he said the problem is that we are too nice and we need to deal with them in a much harsher way, referring to the policy. and this is the sentiment on the ground here. incredibly time. people are afraid to talk a lot of money or on behalf of a lot of his ratings, the feeling of revenge. and this is why people will tell you this is an incredibly dangerous time and a dangerous mix. even just on the street, stephanie decker, i'll just say we're off a whole that hasn't protests around the wild in support of the palestinian people. some of the largest have been in jordan's capital, or some of them debate is that for us and a month well,
1:50 am

1:51 am
that this is the crowd that continues to swell. and the last few hours, again, because of the we can be expecting more and more people coming here with the children with their families, think that they're tired of watching the scene unfold on the screen. and because this can be more than 200 and kind of sending records using their family, they want to show something they want to do something for the people who are in gaza. and according to people here is valuable stuff. it's aggression on the policy and people unless it does, people will continue to come out and this will also allow for kids governing policy . the african national congress has long supported the palestinian cause. presidents or i'm opposed, says that israel's actions in gaza amount when need genocide. international pressure has been mounting on is trail to allow humanitarian cargo into gaza. so meeting the reports now from janice back. who's the
