3:33 am
again the easy way, new patient and brocade, previous conflicts and the cubic 19 pandemic. just some of the challenges they've enjoyed initial lives. now they face a battle for survival in a place where the un says civil order has collapsed, gather is on the brink of a must have, has, as well as a risk of diseases. i don't mean doesn't is being stronger the people of gaza is shown underneath it. and then both of those is $1000000.00 children, a being killed or injured, forcibly displaced and collectively punished innocent victims in an increasingly fruitful, more victoria gates and beef inside story the . so let's bring in all the tests to discuss all this and i'm on,
3:34 am
it's tanya hash. hassan, a pediatric intensive care. doctor who's worked in gauze i. she co founded garza medic, voices a social media account. but she has 1st time testament is from health care workers in the strip in occupied east jerusalem. we have jason leave the country, director of save the children in the occupied palestinian territories. and in london, yara age, which unless to spend her childhood in gauze at find too old for spending your time with us. if i can start with you, jason, just to get some context here about the population of garza 2300000 people up. but about how for children is that right? absolutely. you have the majority of people with disabilities living in the now being a child, the 1400000 people have slid the bars and the children and the sheltering wherever they can. there is no place and got the
3:35 am
say, but now the bombardment, the strikes have continued to know in the south where the situation where the civilian deaths, tall has had more than 7000 civilians, almost 3000 of those big children. we're now having a situation where one child show that would be 13 minutes because one child every 13 minutes. the last numbers of civilians that of inches more than 18 and a half 1000 again, 100, every 3 of those being a child. every conflict disproportionately affects children ever seen yet again, in this country, children not paying the heaviest price with the lives with it being injured and not to mention the scar they will carry with them to the remainder of the times. i don't to tanya, you works in gaza. um, so we're talking about about a 1000000 children who are in garza under this relentless is riley bombardment in 3 weeks in we have 3000 children killed. that means israel in 3 weeks is killed about
3:36 am
a 1000 children a week. this is the 5th cause of war. we saw horace from those previous was did you think they could ever get to this? i mean, i don't think anybody's mind should go there it's, it's really her effect. you know, a few days ago eunice suffers for release the report. this was 700 children ago since then. we've had 700 further children die. they said, and i quote, the situation, the gaza strip is a growing stain on our collect the conscience, the rate of death and injuries of children is simply staggering. and i think that's, that's the way most people who listen to the news in that region would react. it's, it's, it's staggering and it is a stain on our collective conscience. and, you know, these are just just numbers. and now these, these are children with families, parents who love them. siblings identities,
3:37 am
hopes, dreams, subjectivity, an inner world. and there's a risk of reducing them to numbers because we get habituated to hearing these, these numbers. but you know, just like is really, children have biographies, families identities, hopes and those have been shared with us. these are over 3000 children. and i just want to clarify that number is the children that were able to count. and those statistics there are over $900.00 children in the gaza strip that are missing right now. we're missing from the figure right now because they have not, their bodies have not been able to be retrieved from under the rubble. so we're talking about over 4000 children likely at this point. and i, i completely agree with unit stuff. this is a growing stain on our collective conscience. y'all are these clearly all numbers for you? you grew up in the gaza strip these off friends and family members of over the last 41, members of my family and 2 of my colleagues and from the feel like fun. but 1st,
3:38 am
can i please express my condolences. this is awful. and from the 41, members of my family, you know, and 17 of them are children. and the student didn't were really loved. you know, they were the lived in our farm. indeed, i used to be besides most of them, whenever i went back home, i would, i would be the babysitter, you know i, i had so many memories with them. every single one of them called dreams. every single one of them, how those special director and the old wherever chair for despite everything they've been living through, you know, the children are the reason why i wanted to become a journalist and the 1st place. because, you know, usually their voices are those that are not her them, they're unable to articulate what they're living through. and as, as a kid, my status, when i was a kid i, i felt thought, you know,
3:39 am
i feel like the more work doesn't care about me as a promised and young kid. and i genuinely think that, you know, is really still in my childhood. is there a student all of my memories from being a good, you know, is there any thing my childhood and i was 14 years old when i sold people getting cut into pieces in front of my eyes. i was only 8 years old when i 1st experienced her and, and then then you know, i talk so my school, i remember i would never forget. i was doing my arabic exam or big final exam. i was in grade city and um, next to or the school, there was a very severe bomb. and i remember my teachers just, you know, panicking and i'm seeing all of the children crying. and this was the 1st aggressive mendoza. and right now we're in 2020 c and we're seeing, you know, this is the 6th aggression since 2008 and published and you haven't got the kids. if we're only going to, um, you know, look at the kids, um,
3:40 am
every single one of them not more than 90 percent of palestinian children are um you know, suffering from kids of the meeting to did on why, but there is, was most of my relative for adult mother, most of the kids in my family and our friends, you know what we've been living through and god, the did not just start on the 7th of october. this has been my whole life. you know, i grew up with the sort of bombs more than the sound of birds. i grew up, you know, being scared of the song of the airplanes to now, i'm in london and there's airplanes a lot in london. and i'm still, you know, suffering from severe 50 of these the, even when the fire alarm goes off, i knew loud noise is driggers me. i've been trying to get the treatment for my beach as the for the last 7 years. and i'm not even close to being, you know, treated from what i've seen on the who are affect, you know, across the do the be committed against me and my people. and every single more i almost got the kids, you know, i've just seen very lucky,
3:41 am
but i'm still alive. but every single published in a tried and gone never says that they can be, you know, i live for the next moment or not jason, we mentioned lots of figures at the start of this program and we know it's over $3000.00 children killed the figure may be much higher is was bringing up the fact that there have been challenges to those figures present bite and the saying, i have no notion the policy is a telling the truth about how many people all killed he went on. i'm sure, in a sense of being killed, it's the price of waging a war. can i ask you to weigh in on the figures? i'm because off the said that the ministry of health produce this, which is a list of all those that died. a very detailed list was all of the names of those that have been killed and all of that d channels, from your perspective, from, from, from, from your organization save the children. what do you make of these official statistics that come from the ministry of public health?
3:42 am
do you think they are right to it? let's just be clear on that. you know, so to talk to the parties have been running the health system because of the last 16 years. and when you look through the previous escalations, which unfortunately they have been many. the stickers that have been released by the ministry will probably call in the 75 to tardies and cause the ministry official. when you compare those to the official u. n. c gives release. the pretty much identical, the slight variations, but again, these are very small and number, but then pretty much accurate. so when we look through again, historical evidence, what has the ministry been producing and sitting in previous escalation with what you end up is there, there is no discrepancy between them. so the figures that, again, not being used all the ones that until now have not shown to be discredited in any way, shape or form. and unfortunately, the previous confidence, escalations that have taken place in casa, you are a one of the most disturbing things i've heard in recent days. and there's so much
3:43 am
disturbing information that we will consuming is the fact that families now splitting the children up and putting them in different places. so whole family doesn't get wiped out. and also the parents. so writing children's names on their arm. so if they all killed, they can identify them and the others are putting identity bracelets on the children. this is shocking. you know, this is not the 1st time that this is happening. unfortunately, it is the most brutal and most barbaric i talk and got the, you know, of your butler and, you know, children are literally more than 70 percent of all the people have been kids and cause were, these are children and women. so what's happening is that clear, you know, a violation of international law, but this is been like my life funeral. i remember in 2014, my mother is the you on staff member and on a real staff member. and she has to be working to help. there are a few jews or,
3:44 am
you know, being displaced on seeking shelter and corner of school is the, are supposed to be safe. but as we know, is there a good keeps bombing those on our schools in nowhere and god that is actually said, but even then my mom took my brother was there in 2014. and i had to stay with my father, even though i was a 14 year old that was crying. i was like, normal, my like you complex. i need to come with you. we have to be together as a family. and she said, you know, it's me, i'm it, so dollars, my brother and it's good, you know, you on your dog have to be alive. you know, we have to split to and this is just my story, my find me concrete families are doing the same thing, you know, splitting their families and halls. and sometimes, even if they split the family didn't have, the whole family is being wives or from the civil administrator. you know, so many families have been completely obliterated. only from like family 41 members . and you kind of mazda and, you know, my family is a big family, but you can imagine all of the other families that are smaller. um, you know,
3:45 am
that this writing the children, you know what i'm think about that. and then when i think back to my childhood, then i really the trouble mother i was living. and i honestly cannot even put it into words. what i said the try in general. i and i didn't even understand what this month. i didn't understand the destruction. i didn't understand my parents, you know, tried to to, to make me understand what's happening. but, you know, it's only it was when i was 14 that the realize what, what the law says meant. and when i was really, you know, cult and know most of her and i survive by american. but that's when i realized what it means to be between the life and death situation. you know, and so many of these children are having to, you know, he is like, you know, they're not children anymore. they're having, you know, one of my should my cousins, children. she's the only survivor from the her whole family. cuz he sisters both
3:46 am
brand barons, both parents work and highlight is only 8 years old. she's gonna grow up without any member of her family. you know, her own cause we're good or owns, we're good. and you know, i'm unable to talk to her. i don't know what to tell her. i don't know. i don't know how she's feeling. i can never even imagine what she has to go through. you know her sisters, her whole memories. she's only a country has to live for the rest of her life without her parents and her. her sisters, you know, um and those pictures on the, on the art printing. but there, um, as the doctor said, you know, it is a stain or consciousness on it. the stain on the bottom you might need to for inventing this continue for more than like, you know, 20 days. it's not like, you know, one must be true that has been committed in one day and we could have stopped the know, is there a continuous domestic or church during that the fingers are continuing to increase? we're seeing hard state corner of the guns from the on the ground or risking their
3:47 am
own lives to produce these pictures is graphic pictures of trends. and, you know, we use the not only brit cards like i am literally unable to sleep. since that goes from start to, i barely sleep 50 hours a day because of those pictures the whole to me and the world is just watching, you know, by then is there giving the green line to do is read to continue. what they're doing most are printing multi occurring truth, right. and, you know, i'm just, i'm shocked. you know, i, i never thought a genuinely thought people are. we're going to be this harvard book, everything and post in the end right now seems like this is not our world, you know, we don't know. well, let me, but let me bring in tanya on this because we've talked about the bombardment. but of course, the other factor here is the aide not getting in very limited aid on the specific, but the not allowing in these riley's is fuel. from your perspective as adults to
3:48 am
how important is few for those hospitals for keeping the hospitals running for running things like ventilate, has and if you buy it has been able and babies. yeah, thank you for that question. um, i just want to address a couple of things that were, were shared in the last few minutes um, by my co speakers today. you know, just in reference to what yada was saying earlier. and to put things in context for viewers. a child of age 11 today would have lived through 4 major bombardments up until this point. and then in reference to something else that we were just discussing, you know, there's, there's this deep sense of being alone, my gardens and palestinians in general that i've spoken to. so colleagues that i have in the field in gaza, who have sent messages saying, you know, we feel like 2 days ago, one of my colleagues sent us a message to say, we feel like the whole world has come together to eliminate us. and nobody's listening to us and the world is deaf to our suffering. and i think, you know,
3:49 am
1st of all, i think that should be very alarming to the people listening to this program today . but i also think it's reflective of, of a particular type of, of, of psychological trauma of feeling completely isolated and feeling like the world is, is voluntarily silenced to your pain and suffering. one of my colleagues today said the in gaza said the whole world is watching us getting get it, getting massacred on tv. and so just silently watching. um, and so just in reference to the, the uh, number question that you provided to. uh, jason, from save the children, you know, i think kind of discrediting the depths as part of that that dehumanization. um, so i just wanted to make that point and thank you for allowing me the opportunity to do that. yeah, i'm just, i'm not on your own on the specifics of not allowing of fuel in as a doctor. how is that going to impact the medical situation on the ground or
3:50 am
so it just, just for context, fuel operates, everything from the ambulances that go to collect people from under the rubble to go pick up a pregnant women who are delivering or, or others where having heart attacks, you know it's, it's, we rely on our parent medic services in normal time. so you can imagine in times of crisis like this, how important having fuel for that is fuel is needed to bring the aid, the very little 8 that is coming in to the locations it's needed to be delivered to and then on the hospital level. fuel operates just about or electricity actually more accurately operates just about everything in my sub specialty, which is a critical care medicine from fence leaders to monitors and fusion pumps. and without those things, you cannot run an intensive care unit. and without those things, patients who are without electricity, and i want to make the distinguish distinction between fuel and electricity because
3:51 am
the electricity supply has been cut off of gaza strip and fuel is really what's needed to operate the generators, which in a pre october, 7th times are the backup system for the hospitals, electricity, so it would be needed to operate ventilator is if a patient is dependent on a ventilator, which many of patients and intensive care are, and you cannot operate the ventilator or suddenly you run out a few of those patients will die, it is a death sentence. they are unable to breathe based off a case a die. the same is true for patients who are dependent on dialysis. there's a when a over a 1000 patients who are dependent on on dialysis. and if we cannot operate with dial up dialysis machines, those patients unfortunately will die. the same is true for new needle unit swear. newborn babies are are, are taken care of. and newborn babies are often and incubators are often on breeding machines. all of these things require electricity, and the 2nd, the generators can no longer provide that electricity because the fuel has run out
3:52 am
. those newborn premature babies will die and we know there more than a $130.00 of them. and so it's essentially a lack of fuel is an ultimate death sentence on multiple levels. and i sort of talked about the hospital intensive care level of things. but there is also, you know, be crease of clothes down because they don't have fuel to operate the bakeries and decrease are needed to provide fuel, fuel, water sanity water, dsl, a dsl, a nation plants cannot function because again, they need electricity to be solid at the water, so even gauze is internal in abilities to, to provide drinking water are, are stifled. so let me, let me and let me bring in jason now on this because the all the additional fact to, to all of this is but they're all people on the move everywhere and gaza in part because israel is threatening them telling they have to move. but also they're trying to find some what sites i'm planning. there is no safe place in golf. so i looked at some of the un statistics. they said about
3:53 am
a 1000000 people this placed include 4750 pregnant women, 390 postnatal cases, requiring medical attention to the un saying they're increasing the identifying acute respect, treat and diarrhea among children on the 5. tell us about know those in hospital but those that of the medical care and the ordeal that facing jason clearly the more we estimate about 1400000 people reflect the higher, the sheltering wherever they can. in schools, us sicily, the public buildings, hospitals of the infrastructure. the people are moving to in the south and those even the remainder of the no kennel co, with the numbers of people. the 650000 got a huge amount of people trying to sell to in 150 shelters in south. it was not built for the capacity. many of the shelves is hosting up to 4 times as many people as it would go full. that means there's no food in that. sorry. is that
3:54 am
a good supplies of food? and that, of course, the cost of water. and bathrooms facilities, in one sense, uh, the 16 bathrooms for about 25000 people and the water. so you can flush, there's no more to, to maintain hygiene practices. there's no water to drink. again, i want to read you a few of this critical to ensure that there's some of these other nations pots, where the pumps are working to actually bring up the ground water. so if any of the children i know resulting to drinking brackish water will say like water because there's not enough fresh water for them to drink. so even the change of the south, i mean the many people are still remaining, but no because it has not been safe for them to move. despite the valuation orders to move to the south, the gym to the south. as parents, my o teens, and the finally had to flee from their homes and the know to take shelter in this now. ok, tonya tonya, we had
3:55 am
a warning in recent hours from the head of on road. that's the u. n. agency that deals with palestinians. the commission of general felipe laza reeney and he's now saying things could get even worse. he says there is a risk of serious disease installed. ation with that is certainly true. i think you have, you have thousands of people sheltering as jason was saying in, in environments that are meant for a very small fraction of that number sharing the same laboratories in drinking on hygenic water. we already know that there's been a spike and dry real disease or illness amongst children in, in the gaza strip. we don't have reports of cholera yet, but the, an outbreak of cholera in the sort of dense settings would be catastrophic. and, and unfortunately in the circumstances, this is not uncommon at all. and so, yeah, i think there, there we, we know there's been an, and an uptick and chicken pox and other contagious diseases. as a, as
3:56 am
a consequence of people living and very close proximity sheltering altogether in these types of settings. we're coming near the end of the program and i'd like to get the last word to yara. yara, i've given what we're hearing this desperate stories about the plight of people in gaza, particularly children in gauze. if you were able to speak to president bikes and right now on behalf of the children in gaza. what would you tell the president of the united states right now? the hello certainly started by saying that i'm shocked by your auctions. you know that you have blocked in iran. you are literally not only a thing, a genocide, and i think cleansing of bombs, binion's, but most of them are children. and that those children will never forgive you. you know, this children are becoming, you know, or fun. they're either being cared or either, you know, but, but even if we think this is, there is an immediate sci fi which you have as
3:57 am
a president, you have such a responsibility of the work leader and a leader. you don't the only award leader, but also the president of one of the, you know, the strongest, and then more power, most powerful countries in the world. you have a responsibility, you know, with all of your a freedom of speech, things on your own, the rights and how we talked about democracy and then the procedure. you blame your democracy. how are you anything, it's on the side of the innocent palestinian children, you know, even if you called for a ceasefire, which you have been objecting, hon. you've been doing a ceasefire for, for palestinians, and does the, you know, even if they're the ceasefire, these children, their lives, you know, it's card for ever, and i am one of those children i was once a child. i've lived through these things. i've lost so many people from my family. i didn't even see my family for 6 years, even when i left because it's not like this is a new situation. you know,
3:58 am
all of these lives, all of these lives, all of these dream you are responsible for. it's for the, for these things, you know, you are doing exactly what is the way it is doing, you know? yeah, all right, thank you. thank you. thank you. thank you so much for your time. this was a most depressing conversation, but thanks so much to our panel for joining us, tanya. how is your son jason lee? you all are aid. you'll find much more about the goals of war. and you can watch this or any other of our programs. again, if you go out to 0, don't com. also we want to know what use st. postal comments on facebook page. that's facebook dot com forward slash h a inside story. and you can even tweet this, although now it's cool. next not twitter. we're at a inside story. i'll be back in this chat very soon. and will the team here stay safe, bye bye for now? the freight companies, fig passports, international banks,
