3:33 pm
we make them as understandable as we can do as many people as possible no matter how much they know about a given chrisy. so issue the smell of that is all the power as i was just a recall respondents, that's what we strive to do. the hello i money inside a business. counting the cost on al jazeera, your weekly look at the weld business and economics this week, feeling abandoned by the wells palestinians on now at a breaking points as a truck goes into golf and will the international community to move to save them. also this week cut off from the rest of the 12 to 16 years. and you know, as a nation, says gauze and needs billions of dollars in
3:34 pm
a to fix it. stifled economy and consume is a protesting against the will. with that wallet. several western companies with links to israel or paying the price, a boy called thousands killed and tie and neighborhoods flats and no west face to go. palestinians trapped in garza or deny the essentials for life, food, drinking water, medical care and fuel all necessary to pilot life saving machines and shelter. but more than 3 weeks since, as well, started it submit it to be offensive and imposed a total siege on the strip humanitarian aid to gauze, it remains limited. you know, it's a nation says the situation is worsening by the hour. and one is that the car in a system system is get to fail. a courtesy call from you guys. uh is because actually furniture and total weight. so for the, for the,
3:35 pm
we mean the basic services upfront of the medicine is running now for the water running no fuel is running out the streets. so because i saw that the oldest throwing we said, which, which we called a month to have it as uh, very soon with a well feed program says for every person who has receive food assistance, at least 6 more in need. thousands of hungry palestinians in gauze i broke into distribution centers to get food and all the basic supplies last week. and you went agency for palestinian refugees. and the loss of this is a warring sign that civil order is breaking down. the do we need freshmen? so we need food, we starving, this is tied to the on fast our children called sleep from hunger. and 1st we need to provide food and move to for them. the we have no flower, no 8, no water, not even toilets or houses will destroy them. no one cares about us. we appeal to
3:36 pm
the people of the world. all international powers are against us. we need it a and we wouldn't have done this if we weren't sure. i mean, thousands of a convoys excluding fuel have been delivered to the strip every day. that's compared to at least $500.00 trucks. before the war started, the roof of crossing in egypt was temporarily open to allowing entry for a limited number of patients and foreign nationals. because as health ministry, as announced that the indonesian hospital no longer has a fully functional generator, secondary one is providing limited power, ventilation has stopped. the distribution of medical oxygen has ceased to the united nations. as israel sees a garza is prohibited on the international and has been pushing for humanitarian pause. israel has ordered, almost hoss of gauze, has 2000000 people to leave the northern pulse of the strip and move to the south. more than 600000 displace palestinians, a sheltering in
3:37 pm
a 150 facilities operated by the united nations. that's almost 10 times more people than that capacity. well, from amman, i'm joined now by layla baker. layla is the regional director for arb states at the united nations agency u. n. s p. a. thank you so much for joining the program. is a little bit of good news this week later when the rough up border crossing opens to allow engine palestinians out. i believe 81 injured palestinians were allowed out to seek medical help, but presumably that's just a drop in the ocean compared to the number of inches there are. i think this is an existential crisis for humanity, where the latest atrocity imposed on the palestinian people has entered in even more terrifying phase with disastrous human consequences. not the least of which is on women and children. you mentioned 81 injured who were allowed to cross out of
3:38 pm
the fi. while we appreciate the efforts of everyone who is trying to address the needs of the most vulnerable. we also request that this is about secession of the bombing of palestine. the palestinian civilian population in gaza and allowing for the un, including you in s p a to address the needs of the 2200000 civilians who are desperately entirely in need of humanitarian assistance and to be able to return to some semblance of safety at the moment there is no, we're safe to go and we are unable to carry out. in our capacity is the un, with any conviction, with any of the so taishan with any ability to reach those people. because there has been the speech until that is lifted and we can deliver and safety to the women and children. the innocent civilians who have been trapped in god's of for new, over 3 weeks. the $81.00 is like you said,
3:39 pm
a drop in the bucket and the emphasis on the wrong syllable. layla, we have seen hundreds of a trucks come in through the roof of crossing in the last few days, but the un says the car in a system is dead to fail. why do you describe it like that? what i would say is that under international humanitarian law, it is prohibited to block. and in fact, there should be facilitation from all parties to allow unconditional unhindered access for all humanity or your assistance in aid. whether that be supplies, people or goods to provide for those who are in need. in the case of u. s. p a we've been ready to go with our supplies to help the collapse medical facilities which have been targeted and hit over the course of the last 3 weeks. we have been trying to get them into gaza. we've been trying to get all of our aid there. and with the limits is not enough for us to, but it also laid out what is it that is stopping that aid from getting to the
3:40 pm
people that need it? and there are too many blockades, right now, israel and other than, well, all the actors involved need to facilitate that. that means that when we have trucks at the border with the, with egypt, those should be allowed to go in on hindered. and it should not be a conditionality, we should be able to take what we have, take it into gaza and a lot be allowed to provide for our partners right now. there are a number of conditionality, a number of bureaucratic issues that are not allowing for that at the scale and level that we need. no worries there. this was the question. i mean, it's almost a, well, that's exactly what i was gonna say. so with, with highlighting this is an active mode zone. in other crises, some of the crises it, there's normally a pause, some sort of pause to allow humanitarian a to go in. that's not happening in this case. no, it is not. and indeed in the, even in where we were, we were assured that there was protection the un vehicle carrying
3:41 pm
personnel was hit. the emphasis needs to be not just on a pause, but the complete cessation and cease fire of the assault on garza and allow for the both that is the system and people and goods to cross into gaza and begin to rebuild what is a completely disastrous situation. not only for the people of palestine, but for humanity, we are being judged. we are being judged by what we can do. this is a we need to stop this immediately. tell us a bit more about the u. n's facilities on the ground in goal is that because there are many schools, many health facilities and so on where people are not only just seeking help with their seeking shelter. a given the amount of aid coming in how they coping, how long before they can no longer provide any help there this already overstretched. how can i describe to you that a school that was run by honora,
3:42 pm
which would have a maximum of 400 people now houses up 212000 where ship the hospital has 500 patients that they can't care for and where they're in the core doors where women who require of a syrian section are doing that by the light of a mobile phone and under general anesthesia if, if they can find it. and we have had reported cases where women are undergoing c sections with no anesthesia put yourself in. there is no, there is no respite from that situation until we can get the care and the assistance at the scale that we require as the united nations and protection from being hit while doing so. let's just stay with us because i want to highlight the situation in the west bank because not only is the situation in gauze a increasingly dietary thing. they are also challenges in the west bank because israel's been intensifying raids as well as attacks by step lives on palestinians.
3:43 pm
and it's brought the economy in the occupied westbank to a standstill. major check points. restaurants, cafe schools and university classrooms, o o m t. impulsive products with almost $2000000000.00 from israel has been disrupted, and produced on supermarket shelves is also dwindling. palestinian traders say they are facing difficulties and imposing an ex sporting goods through crossing the border with jordan. we also have factories forced to drop that production capacity due to is there any restrictions on transport to other parts of the occupied westbank and at least $200000.00 palestinian labor is who used to work in israel and in illegal is ready supplements on now, jobless it back to you like uh, as of outlines that i mean, devastating consequences on the palestinian economy in the west bank as well. is the region receiving any assistance?
3:44 pm
so any aid i am neither politician nor economist, but i can tell you that as the person who speaks on behalf of the united nations population fund, there is nothing that is disconnected from what you said in terms of the lives of civilians who reside and who are under occupation in the west bank for over 50 years. this is a fragile context at best and where you will have the imposition of an occupation. it is the conditionality, whether that be on the economy or whether women can access health care, whether you can raise your children and safety and security. whether you can have an education system that will also provide for those kids to become responsible adults and into a viable market system. the emphasis is on the end to the occupation so that there can be an equitable an equitable system. and we can begin to build the lives of the
3:45 pm
people who deserve it for us. that's women and children and their families. and we, we continue to emphasize that line. i really appreciate you speaking to us on our is there a way to bake a regional director of our states at the united nations agency u. s. p. a. so thank you. the 8080 percent of people in gaza with dependent on a even before the latest move started. but the money dropped from $2000000000.00 in 2008 to a few 100000000 last year. since israel imposed of located in 2007, the strip has been described as an open ap prison view and says the restrictions have holler, doubts causes economy. it describes living in this trip in 2022 is being confined to one of the most densely populated spaces in the wealth palestinians, all without power. how for the time they did have inadequate sewage system,
3:46 pm
no. and no access to clean water and its latest report the u. n. trade body and todd says golf has g d, p per capita was at 46 percent last year, which is close to its lowest level since 1994. that means in the period of just a generation, garza has become much poor on many nations. so been living standards rise sharply. and if you look at the unemployment rates, many 45 percent of kansas population was unemployed in 2022. that is higher than any country in the world in comparison jump list just right in israel is 3.5 percent as well as restrictions on the flow of people and goods in and out of district hosp, particularly hit goals. this trade, as you can see here in this chart, experts have flatlined over the years to put all this into why the context palestinian goods a main exported to israel,
3:47 pm
who have to pass through is really controlled borders as well. connex 2 sides of palestinian tax revenues and transfers it to the palestinian government. i'm time says that the forced economic dependence on any delay a hold of the transfer mix palestinians fiscally vulnerable. and now the report you an estimate. the occupation has cost the palestinian economy almost $50000000000.00 in revenue between $22017.00. joining me now, some kara is a march band. he's the founder and director of the goal is a base independence. think tank pals think the strategic studies. thank you for your time. how has the blockade impact have gone since the economy? the 313 of the origins, it's a method very, very badly. it tends because uh, from the need to at least based on quality. we show this the same because i'm going to be cause as a,
3:48 pm
as no economy has been on the scene for the bus every 15 years. but i have, the symptom has been lies. many business people have flipped display that it blows . as you said, page up to 45 percent of the other 2 much more that the above could each of the to fit the parameters and doesn't become dependent on the aid for people to understand that because i used to explore does, does used to be a little god, some of the less one of the highest and them and at least does a little bit more time to. but i've instructed about the investigative to in garza was by the name of what it was, but it's time now it, it thing collapse and the whole society to the 2300000 people become defend, done, put a note of integrated, especially in the street that the culture of single did you woodenville or this for which man for the blood fisherman, the little bit. the mean 0, the $50.00 because be would have been displaced. is dorski to go to war.
3:49 pm
everything is a close. so gun has been the by 50 is tab from left to economically viable. are going to be totally if base say it, trying to explain to us what that means to for an entire country. uh well, in this case, as an area we're region, a besieged territory in this case, to be dependent on a how does that in fact affect the daily life? how does that effect infrastructure? is that a built in society in general? many people forget that that size is too small, douglas, $200.00 square mine to $300.00. 62 people with that square. so rounded by, here's what it is. what i did with that all withdrawal age groups in from does i have 2005 troops out there with 5000 as i said, left within. gotcha. but is the new to control of the see the left and according to the little girl as a student, if you buy an area by easily,
3:50 pm
even according to this will be of course it is, i would say the goals are still incorrect, but here's what it's so easily as obligation i'm supposed to be that the board would be one of them does not live on the uh, under control now does uh used to be protected, explore society, people are they navigate now. they tend to be really be without waiting for the order a lot of hard for the other fleming to try to, to do the seo tool for this has impacted the psychology education. but then the public because of that has been decreased. the c's amount of children was one of the has to do it to the so to was up go national, would go to the driver 6, as i said, or most, many of the ever since the last live factors that i felt packed. so this will destroy the 2009 war is still not particularly struck. we need to
3:51 pm
remember that because it has been subjected to serve in the escalation since 2007, 17. this condition 5 of them would have major war 2809201220152021. and now we have a $23.00 to school and a to board to bid with this for wizard lectures, although, and the perception doesn't necessarily go ahead, but the perception does uh, as being decreed shortly in the last couple of years of the 2001 the one was there was a lot of dense of me. i'm just once a month of me living days that it was a month. and then now that how many people, thousands of people who lost their policy, they believed this for a month. they don't, they didn't, they didn't have the grand to because of the house. the situation is beyond description. we've talked about 200000 flats, has been damaged,
3:52 pm
added up to 30 or severely diesel 100000 flats in, goes on. and then we'll save lives and, and this is, might be a good is due to the 45 percent of the us. i have to the find, find the 1000 families 500000 glancing guys. are you talking about one of the 20th of this up to yesterday? that does not include the course, but the subset of to the and the boards which we forget now we had a portion of the ones that we are approaching the one to 2 weeks. and that's a very, that is indeed a very, very good point. unfortunately, we are out of time and yes indeed, it is going to be getting colder as we approach to send. but thank you so much for speaking to us. a marsha band founded director at the gauze and base independent st . tank pal think strategic studies, popular food chains and corporations around the world all being affected by the conflicts. many consumers have been i'm good by some sense. comments on actions
3:53 pm
seem to support as well as on garza now cools, for a boy called of his riley products and western companies affiliated with israel. growing that is pushed company, it's like mcdonalds, for example, to donate to gaza. the fast food chains decision to give free meals to the is really all me spoke to backslash and the are weld of the companies in the middle east. have tried to distance himself from the branches in israel in order to protect that interest. to joining us from puss in western australia is mike guess that means the founder and chief industry. i'm list of mike, just send me recession. thank you for your time. how did mcdonalds and companies like starbucks become so in broiled in this boy, he caught campaign against them? how significant has the impact been on the brands like starbucks so mcdonalds, due to their know the global business operations? obviously they are more exposed than any other local businesses and even the fact
3:54 pm
that they will pricing every single country and really, really enjoy connect sites for a while. they come to me. and there is a, there is a strong political view about these big brands in the world. and as far as the conflicts and how do, how these brands has been affected. i believe that somehow it just depends on their political views, how they have free access to the recent comments make in between you sorry line and, and i've seen you and, and also i have the same time. it's also dad, dad, or it's also the results of, you know, the social media and how the people have reactive to some of that. you know, the content and digital content that has been circulated into social media. it's not just american brands, rice it's, it's also french brands that have felt the front from consumers. yes, definitely. i mean, as i said, we really, we nature connect to it while it kind of me and every company around it was that
3:55 pm
possibly could be a factor. it could be a no called a fridges producer who for some reason, they have some sort of connection, read, you know, an investor as a new starting. so regardless of whether they are american or the, or european or they are from, you know, they meet all these every company could possibly be affected because of these conflicts. and as i said, there is a, there is a strong political view. and on the consumers, as far as you know, as well as the, the google brands. and due to the dispatcher, any, uh, uh, any news that gets circulating the social media about these brands and, and do oppression. and these are all you definitely would have a negative impact on, on, on these uh, brands. you know, when we saw apps and just sorry to interrupt you, cuz we don't have a lot of time when we talk about the damage to the brand with the damage to the company. i mean, these are multi $1000000000.00 companies like a company,
3:56 pm
like starbucks. you know, when you get people boy costing them, oh, are we talking a well in the ocean in terms of the bottom line or is it, is it significant? i believe, is it dropped the notion of the people to try and resend these, that beautiful cube. busy companies who are operating as a franchise. so and every country it's drawn by different uh, you know, master franchise. so therefore any, any conflict or any protests of. busy these brands will not affect the, basically the global oppressions. it would have some impact. but as you said, correct, a would be a dropping ocean. and what about on is rails economy? could we see any kind of impact a tool through this boy called movement? the bulk of movement is, is not the way it's been going on for the past 20 years. as you know, there's a, there's a movement of bought, boycotting, and, and deep diverse and basically putting sanctions on, on the start of the companies. and obviously, due to this are some conflicts of b,
3:57 pm
b, i read this thing there imagines all of these are movements uh the, the impact on is there any companies uh on dogs are very, uh, i would say i would not, it would not be very obvious you to the fact that, you know, we need to have some sort of data on numbers to understand. busy was the, you know, the dark impact on, on these are in the companies. as i said, the impacts on, on these are the companies would be more on the short term basis. but again, on the beach, i'm a long term. i don't think that would be a major impact on business for patients. mike, i really appreciate your time, mike, to send me uh, fort founder and chief industry analyst from mike to send me it was such. thank you . thank you. and that is, uh, so for this, we get in touch with us on x for me known as twist to at money site and use the hash tag a j, c, c. c. when you do well, of course you can drop us an
