hospital, they movements can be seen and this is riley drone footage. on wednesday evening is really on the release of this video. i a see for hospital from the science behind it claims to show weapons and other items belonging to home us totally confirmed without any doubt, but come us systematically uses hospital in the military operations in violation of international law. but these really ami, deleted the video. it described as undeniable truth from social media late to re posting it under a different description, they say, exposes the countless homeless weapons. so these images cannot be independently verified how much deny is using the hospital as a base, calling it a lie to justify israel's destruction of causes medical infrastructure. which is real and its allies say the rates are justifying the 1st 4 crimes being committed
5:03 pm
by a mosque by having their headquarters, their military hidden under hosp. and that's a fact that's a tap doctors say the rates continues to at least look at is really bulldozers have entered the hospital and attractive stone to hospitals from the main entrance. have it removed all the ambulances probably do preparing for tanks to come in? who are waiting to know what will happen, the bulldozers are paving the way the troops cut off communication and searched all buildings of the complex housing thousands of people. another doctor says it's rainy. raids are a continued violation of international law. so that's why i see on the find one in the media, hospitals are protected under international law and no one can invade it. but this enemy has disregarded all the international laws and invaded the hospitals and humiliated some of the patients and injured interested. some of the medics in this
5:04 pm
1st invasion. now it is invading again, i'll shoot for medical complex and our medical staff and patients. i had a very high risk because of this brutal in the meanwhile and is really new side. walla is quoting security sources who believe how much may have carried out what he calls engineering operations to conceal tunnel openings and prompt explosives at all. chief among the over 600 patients reported to still be inside. the facility is $36.00 premature babies fighting a different fight as the wall rages on mike level, which is there. well, that's got the view now from occupied is to reason and speak to our correspondence . mama challenger mohammed and we know that these really ami has now been in al. she's this has some time they release this on verified video from inside the hospital compound. took us through how that's playing out at the moment. and these
5:05 pm
really media as soon as, as yet we haven't yet seen any specific pulling that's being done to get the opinion of the public here with regard to those videos. but what we are seeing right now is sort of across the media landscape. we're monitoring different chap shows on different is really television stations and also online discussions. and what we've seen is essentially opinion with regard to these and verified videos released by these really aren't sort of split among 3 different camps now. and one can't. you have those, many of them, former defense officials, also pundits who are saying that essentially they are underwhelmed by what they've seen, that they would have expected that these really army would have found more in the ship. a complex especially considering the fact that the is really army has said for a long time. they believe that how much has been operating out of the ship a complex. then you have those who have said, look right now. uh,
5:06 pm
this operation is ongoing. these really army is still in the ship medical center and they essentially are saying we should give this time we should see what else these really army turns up. beyond that, you have a lot of people that formerly advised the government in the israel on defense matters and their stance seems to be that no matter the criticism that is real is facing because of the operation on the issue for medical complex. they believe that the operation should continue. they believe israel and the armed forces, and israel should not care about the criticism being leveled against them and that they should go ahead and try to find as much evidence as they can. now i should also mention this tells you that i have been speaking with palestinians here in occupied east jerusalem to get their opinion about what they've seen, emerge from these really army. and all of them have told me unequivocally that they do not believe the images that they have seen put forth by the israeli army. they believe that this is propaganda. they believe that this is lies, and they say the fact that there's only limited amounts of weapons that are being
5:07 pm
seen in these videos, these on verified videos to them. it only proves that israel has committed a war crime by going in to the ship. the medical complex and stuff, you know how much i'm doing with that with overlay. so this will be following that very excited to be for you on, on to 0. thank you. who a call. meanwhile, at least 9 people have been killed in an overnight is rarely strike on a petrol station and the central gaza the facility. and then the gauzy refugee camp was also being used as a shell set by many just based upon a spring in southern areas with thousands of palestinians are flooded for their own safety. have also been attacked to bonds to last 6. i'm sorry. what's on in con eunice? well, $41.00 day is a whole $41.00 days of bloodshed toilet displacement. and now is red ones, palestinians troop and seeking shelter. and the so called safe, so in south to move to show to is assigned of its military assaults. expanding in the southern gaza strip, moving 1600000 people are displaced across the goal,
5:08 pm
is the strip. tens of thousands of them were forced to make the journey from north to south across the why the casa view, and has said that it cannot be part of any sought to unilateral proposal to push desperate civilians and goals that into so called safe loans. now as well as aust residence and, and tony just based people sheltering and these for eastern neighborhoods of con eunice to evacuate to nerd. shouts is, but there's no way safe in casa and that speak to them now sign. she joins us from the ground in con eunice, inside the southern gaza strip. you know, we're talking here about people who have been displaced multiple times. where are they supposed to go? well, that's the question. this does the people from the north of gauze and god was that you were asked to evacuate to the self as the is really army, has called the self to be the safe place or a safer place to be. and while we have seen, remember, plus bombardments through the $4.00 to $1.00 days of this war,
5:09 pm
since the beginning of it on the south. and course of, of the gaza strip, both in fun units and drop off at a good a's refugee camp. the bombardments have not stopped now. people are being asked to, you've got to wait from the certain parts of these cells and uh, parts of the gaza strip in time units for major towns here in san units. the people are asked to evacuate to the so called safe places. what's the use really, are me, is trying to do now is to uh more or concentrate people or squeeze the more in the central part of the south or the western part of the south. while the bombardment is still ongoing, the latest bombardment just took place about half an hour or less was on a residential home in a few days, refuge account. another one,
5:10 pm
also in anybody's refugee caps these 2 bombardments, dozens of people were killed and dozens, others were injured before that earlier today. also in the south, to other homes where pounded by use really air strikes and dozens were injured and also dozens re killed. so this cell does not look like any safe place, but people are also now asking to evacuate from other areas while now the cells has over a 1000000 and 500. a 1000 people just squeezed in this tiny area of land or territory of land in the cells and part of the gaza strip, just as yeah, that's what it is they shoot to the crowd to tell us about the humanitarian situation that we know supplies are running low, we've also been hearing the telecommunications might go any moment now to of the let's start with the telecommunications. now
5:11 pm
they are totally lost and cuts off in because the strip as we speak now we have no internet connection. we have no uh. c telephone signals anymore. they have been cut off only about 16 minutes ago. and you, uh, if i could just describe to you the amount of, uh, k of that just happened in 15 minutes. uh and uh, ambulances are standing outside the hospital, waiting to hear any bombardments. 2 that they can rush to the areas that have been bombarded quickly as they know that now the telecommunications have been completely shut off or disrupted in the scripts. this is not the 1st time that the telecommunications are internet. uh is cut off from the gaza strip. and it has closed uh, great crisis in terms of people not being able to reach um, uh,
5:12 pm
the ambulances or the defense team. when any bombardments happen, while the situation or humanitarian conditions in the south continue to get worse and worse. there is no food, there is no water. there is no fuel entering for the people. there is no electricity for over a month now. it's getting colder. most of the people who have evacuated from the north because their homes have been bombarded have not been able to get any. 7 with them, and that means that they have to go through these times or as the weather is getting cooler in these conditions. while there are no supplies in the markets or in the shops to buy. you know, aside describing a situation for us on the grounds, the income eunice and the southern golf, the strip century and hello. joining me now in the studio,
5:13 pm
assault and bar county is the director of the global institute for strategic research. and there's also a professor public policy at home. i've been in philadelphia and investigate sol ton, great to have you back. i think the last time you and i sent out this desk, you told me that you were concerned that these rarely strategy was to create this as a shrinking space to crowd everyone into this tiny, tiny piece of land as we've been hearing about from unit is that what's happening? yeah, so it is to create a human to crisis, which is now they wanted to be manageable, manageable in a geographical area. so this uh, id of saved zones, not necessarily being introduced. i think it's a very cynical move to try and manage not only the population transfer that they're working on, but also the expectations of the international community to provide 8. so now the un security council has just passed the decision to allow the 2 forces out on aiden and they withdraw the that the, this a comes to
5:14 pm
a very well defined areas within the gaza strip, rather than taking data everywhere into guys which will make contact with their operations and so on. so they are creating this and they hope that both the population and the agencies would agree to come together in those zones. however, as you have just a different matching difference, the the, you and it, and coordinate to he said he says something very interesting because the u. n. has had a lot of bad experiences with this kind of safe zones. they've become traps for civilian population. so and that you and knows very well that they don't have the ability or the fire power to protect anyone in these, in these areas. or what they going to do is to encourage people to come in to become lame docs for this really is when they decide the next attack or the next move as well. we know the un on right has will that the agency, if it published on refugees has already said that they no longer feel that they can
5:15 pm
offer protection under the you. and it's like they've off the highest number of you and stuff in any conflict ever in the last 6 weeks. given what we're seeing on this ongoing bombardment and this increasingly shrinking space for people in the gaza strip. my question is where people supposed to go looking at the map earlier. there is a c border, so there is a hard stop while there have know where to go. i mean, the whole guys, history should have been a protected area. and the 1st base this, this whole arrangement was created to house 70 percent of the population today we should have in 48 and then 67 were refugees. so those are people that are meant to be protected already. but now i think what they're trying to do is to create this crisis and then, and i still think they are aiming to push them into egypt. and part of this greater plan to make sure that the policy and population numbers were then as of
5:16 pm
right now, this time also to see to the river area is you know, the remains below all the jewish numbers. and the only way to do it. now there are roughly equal $7000000.00 on each side. they need to at least it's push away at least 2 or 3000000. all very interesting dynamics and strategy the full time dot account. thanks for joining me again. great to get your thoughts and all of these really please say they've killed 3 palestinians, suspected of being involved in a shooting nearby occupied westbank city if that to him the incident took place as soon as lady checkpoint outside jerusalem, at least 7 people were reportedly also injured for that speak to me, the abraham, she's on the ground for us and ramallah needed just dozing with this choosing at the check point, what have you been hearing from is ready for the of the usually the narrative that we'd receive after these incidents is the narrative of the is really army. they say that they found to hand guns as well as an m. 16 rifle with palestinians would
5:17 pm
inside the car that's have clashed with these really forces that when manning a check point that connects would rather disconnect bethlehem from jerusalem. they say that they've killed the 3 men and that out of the 6 is weight needs who have been injured. one is in a critical condition. now they say that there's a force of palestinian who they believe is involved in the shooting and they've been carrying raids to kind of figure out who this was. again, this is not a narrative that palestinians can confirm the cameras. the person now are always with these weighty forces. now in a, the hours that followed, we've seen is really forces ways and you have braun because they say that the perpetrators are from there. they the rest of the families of this, we palestinians, and we've been seeing also other ways in other places in the occupied west way.
5:18 pm
will speaking of those res, nita and they do seem to be intensifying today. tell us what's going on at the moment. is it related to what happens about checkpoint as well as far as we're guessing from our sources, these raise the 3rd car and the ongoing now in 2 places in the year the other i'm a law and it was full key need about land are not related to this shooting attack that took place and let's not forget that those rates average 40 per day in different cities in the occupied with things. so we're not just talking about ways that have been following a certain uh, shootings and whatnot. we believe that they are already in the process of demolishing 3 is a 2 homes and one in construction and why the full team that is really huge. we give the reason of no permits were given, but as we all know,
5:19 pm
60 percent of the occupied westbank falls under an area called c and his world needs to get processing and permits. these permits are almost rarely given. so as a result, people build and then these really forces demolish since october, the 7th we've been talking about more than 139 demolitions that took place here in the occupied west back now. in addition to that, the rates of power is taking place currently in the village need from a loss, have been seeing a large number of arrests among citizens, including the a, basically the mayor of the village. and this arrest in this rate is still ongoing. nothing ever happened. there was a license for us from the law and we don't get paid westbank. thank you. it also has his head on out his hair sold off because parliament debates and merchants comfortable elastic ties with israel, amid rising public opposition to the cost on the

5:21 pm

5:22 pm
the israel, and all of us have provided evidence to back up the state. oh, alger there was correspondence putting on. so we'll put some of those questions to the deputy pentagon press secretary sabrina thing during a press briefing on wednesday. and so we want to have at least the forces on the ground, right? that's right, so i take it this intelligence assessment is gathered based on information provided by his room that's from our intelligence community. so did you have any assets inside the government? no. assets or boots on the ground and gaza. so there's no gathering on the ground about this. so you have no one entering the hospitals to verify this information. what we've no one, we have no boots on the ground and gaza. how was that assessment? you know, how did you conclude that assessment based on information received from you is really comfortable. well, i'm not going to get into more specifics on how our intelligence is collected. what
5:23 pm
i can tell you is there are multiple agencies as you know here within the department and across the administration. multiple agencies that collect and assess and analyze intelligence. you have no assets on the ground or pass that's entering through these hospitals to basically confirmed the information you're sharing. i will say it again. we have no boots on the ground and gaza just the the, the level of confidence usually you, when intelligence share some information or the classify you talk about. yeah, i'm not going to go into the, the, the assessment of like how we feel. i'm just telling you where what the intelligence community has been able to be classified today and how we, i mean, the fact that i'm reading it out to you, we feel very confident in our sourcing and what the intelligence community has gathered on this topic. so you have a high level of confidence because you said we are very confident i'm saying i am confident reading it to you from this podium today in our assessment off a model of this window and file white house correspondent,
5:24 pm
kennedy. how good kimberly. it was a very interesting exchange, lots of confidence that from the pentagon. right. and now you know what it feels like to be a reporter or audience, gets a look at what it feels like to essentially get the feeling that you're not getting the whole story. that's what it feels like to be in a white house daily briefing almost every day when you ask questions and you know, you're not getting the complete answer. and so what this is an example of is asking the question, and the answer doesn't seem to add up. and that seems to be what my colleagues probably months or was experiencing because the white house and the binding administration and says that they have solid intelligence. that there was, in fact, a command control center that was being operated by hamas and islamic jihad underneath the main medical facility in gaza. yet when there is
5:25 pm
repeated questioning by pentagon reporters such as friday, or in the case of the white house, they don't even allow you to ask questions. sometimes they shut down the question and completely so, but you can't ask the question. this is what happens uh the, the sort of questioning falls apart because there are no good answers. so this is the problem for this administration. there doesn't seem to be a good answer. and stead there is a lot of deflection and redirection, because there simply isn't an explanation. what we do know is that when the, what the white house did say is that the hospital should be protected. the president said that on monday, but clearly is real ignored that went through and on tuesday. and when they went in there, the us then tried to justify it saying, but there was intelligence, credible intelligence that potentially they were captive there. but we know that
5:26 pm
also wasn't true. so there has been some problem matic intelligence and also a message the suite for this white house and its defensive as real. given the fact that the arguments are simply not standing up to tough questioning, as evidenced by our reporter there, well, a lot of confidence, not a lot of detail, it seemed i see the white house national security advisor, jake sullivan has also been tracing. he said that to damian, medical personnel and gauze of a wounded and attack, well, what do we know about what happened there? yeah, this is something that has happened in recent hours. what has happened is that we know there was a field hospital that in fact was it located in gaza and is operated by the jordanian government. we know 7 medics were injured by is really showing. now we know that a jordanian government, a critical us ally, has condemned this as
5:27 pm
a heinous act and is looking into this. and now the national security advisor jake sullivan is echoing those sentiments. he posted on ax saying that the us is deeply concerned medical personal and gaza were wounded in an attack near their field hospital. their essential role must be protected. but as i said just a moment ago, the us president himself said hospital should be protected is really ignored. that now we have the national security adviser saying, but of these medic should be protected. it's hard to see that the whether or not that will be heated, given the fact that the us president issued a similar warning and that was also ignored, can be held at the white house correspondent with all the latest. thank you very much. kimberly the whole of the full failed attempts. the un security council has adopted a resolution calling for june to pauses in the fighting and garza, and also for sure, monetary and kartel is to allow a through nearly 6 weeks into as well as the bombing of the strip to pronounce.
5:28 pm
we're able to find common ground by focusing on palestinian children christian, sending the reports now from the united nations. the russian in the us and bassett, or walked into the meeting together. foreshadowing the security council's 1st action on the war and gaza, while both raise their hands to abstain on the vote. their agreement stopped there . the council passed a resolution focused on children calling for humanitarian pauses of unspecified but sufficient duration to get a to gaza. an immediate release of all being held captive. russia said it was too little too late and called for stronger language. and they should pop up with our amendment calling for humanitarian truth is consistently along the lines of the state of aim of the authors of the text to preserve its purely humanitarian nature . this is the lowest common denominator, lower than which the council simply cannot allow itself to fall to be
5:29 pm
a possibility to receive. palestine also said the resolution didn't go far enough. i should even say you have been demanding from in the respect, international law for decades. and it has dismissed your goals and continued its crimes against the palestinian people. did you ever hold it accountable? or are you going to hold that accountable for rejecting yours if you, if you knew adopted this afternoon? the us ambassador bemoaned the fact that it took so long for the counsel to act. failing to mention that she vetoed an identical resolution 4 weeks ago, had the same old missions and had the same call for humanitarian pause. why wait until 4000 children were dead? this was the resolution that specifically addressed the humanitarian needs. the other resolutions did not. those other resolutions were political resolutions. and
5:30 pm
as i said, this resolution is a huge step forward. the u. n wasn't waiting for the security council to deliver it's a to gaza. it's been negotiating with israel directly on a daily basis for expanded access and its officials, calling for an immediate humanitarian sees fire. now if israel fails to comply, it will be in violation of the resolution as well as international humanitarian law . kristin salumi al jazeera, the united nations for us presidents revive and has defended israel's rage on gauze as largest hospital. he repeated his rarely statements that her last habits headquarters beneath. i'll shufa me the israel know the us has provided evidence to back up those claims. here's the situation. you have a circumstance where the 1st 4 crimes being committed by a.
