11:04 am
a distant memory. alexandra buyers algebra a boat with ortiz in garza say, 55, a trucks have entered through the roof of crossing over the past day. how these on the fast and took off that since the cx 5 ended 3 quarters of calls as population. that's about 1700000 people have been displaced by israel on baldwin's, well, let's speak to honey, my. mother's and get more on the ground in gaza. he's in communist force and the southern gaza strip. i think we've been hearing that over the last day, the south has been experiencing some of the most intense bombing of this conflict. can you talk us through what's been hit circle? yes. well, so far more residential buildings have been the major targets of these really military aerial bombardment. we're talking about the eastern side of ton unit,
11:05 am
namely a lot our area office on that is the highlight on that area, densely populated area we're visiting. so we're sharply order to evacuated to 1st, the 1st time we do where is that order to evacuate to the left hand side of kind of a now. and they are told to go to designated safe area by that is really mandatory into a higher unfortunately, all of this happening under heavy bombardment. so are we talking about in hire a neighborhoods that have lots of being targeted, damaged severely and destroyed and level due to the ground? there are several people are being killed and, and, and those relentless ears strikes but deep. the tragedy of this people are becoming displays more than one time. there are already people who evacuated from the northern part and gaza into the southern part, namely into these are the western side and the eastern sides of highlands are becoming now particularly in the eastern side of funds and are becoming now
11:06 am
a displays for the 2nd time just reading into their fear of, of permanent displacement as they are to of now to move to a further south to rough i city into not the entire roof. i see the but only designated area in rough. i mean, the tell us some fonts and the surrounding you and the facilities the right in that area. but the, the, the repetition of evacuation, just making people a worry and think that this is a permanent displacement. there is no way they're going back to their homes. the more the further they are pushed through the south, the growing fear that eventually they will be made force to, to move to our cross over to the junction side. that's something that people have of worried about since the beginning of the war. and was it fuels by this really military sentiment of the intent, you know, of a population spinning in population, a transfer in, in an attempt to create that buffer is on this really hard talking to it. there's
11:07 am
really minutes or you're talking about a buffer zone that is about 2 kilometers deep into the gauze for belong to what the eastern border, which means we're talking about um, but least $1000000.00 people will be effectively displayed the from that eastern area, honey. given the evacuation, what is that you're talking about? and the, the ongoing bombardments that we're seeing, how people holding out the, especially to the that it sounds like a it is, is also being somewhat restrictive. again yes. yes indeed, they have been restricted again and the talk about more trucks are, are being allowed in together. those wrecks where is stranded between the deep sions a gauge of the crossing and the palestinian gets. so the wording an area that should be a allow the before the end of the seeds fire, that's why i do work late into the gauze is true, but again, they're not, they're not, they're not enough in the face of the rolling
11:08 am
a desired situations of how a city and here's the thing, and this is the tragedy of what, what's happening when people are displaced. they're not given the opportunity to take with them their belongings, whatever they have made available for the past few weeks. the goal on, on, on foot, because they're, it's hard to drive their cars. the old major roads are destroyed, infrastructure are distorted. so people just run for their life without carrying any of their belongings. just seeing the scores of people on the road this morning, just not carrying any things which it will increase their, their suffering in the, in the coming days. because they will need more of those a just to stay in where they will be staying for the coming days. honey my what the, what that report for us from the ground and con eunice and the southern part of the gaza strip. thank you, honey. oh the um, the wing of her mouth says it's fine. a barrels of rockets towards tel aviv on saturday that speak to alan fisher. he joins me now from occupied easter risk. and
11:09 am
let's just start with this phase of the wolf is right. what do we know about as well as plans of the scroll certainly were told that these really are planning for the next stage of the war, which would be moving to a drawing defensive in the southern parts of guys. and that's of course with hundreds of thousands of don't millions of people of move to try and be safe away from northern guys are weird again overnight. there wasn't 10 spite thing. if ideas really, military has in the last couple of hours, said that the use jets and helicopters to target what they described as 10 of his targets inside northern guys. and they destroyed a number of tunnels come on centers and also weapons storage areas in north on guys . they also use these really navy, to target a number of ships that they said were linked to how much that had been using operations. and we're also a place where they were storing weapons. so i thought to the fact that con units were beginning from highly just in the last few minutes,
11:10 am
they dropped leaflets in the last few hours, telling people that it's time to move from there. that there was a boat to launch a major operation in parts of the area around con eunice. and that has people wondering where they can go. because of course they've been told to head sideways. but we've seen these valleys target areas in the south over the last 2448 hours since the end of the ceasefire. so people are left with a difficult decision of do the state, or do they go? island from the sounds of things, especially the sheer volume of the rockets we've been seeing. a mass has been retaliating a let me tell you just in the last few minutes, we've had reports of more a labs done by guys and their own video of kristof them as well. over night. there were more than 40 real kit alerts as rockets targeted central in southern israel. the 1st time the of attacks tell a b. since november the 20th that most of these fell in guns that it had no impact
11:11 am
. there was an incident where the iron domains are set, the system actually failed. i'm one of the interceptors landed engineering and is really he has got mine upfront. no one. but the silly army has told us in the last couple of hours. so he's really on the radio, the 10 missed 10 of them is south or 5 from northern guys. that is an embarrassment for israel to a degree, because they had said that they had military control of a large part of northern guys. and this attack comes just a couple of hours after these really military said, the intention was the destruction of from us. and of course, benjamin netanyahu has talked about that as well. and just a couple of days after israel had said that it had essentially control over northern guys. it will, these launches show how difficult this board is going to be. and how difficult the objective of destroying how much is also going to be an official that with allies as far as from occupied a story summit. thank you alan. to pull their whole 7 who is ready raise any

11:16 am
a very rough manner, but this will probably of the soonest hit in a very violent fashion. and after that, they took him away, they pushed me out of the room and they kept the doctor and that's k inside. let's say for us, the case of the international criminal court says he will set up a team to investigate human rights violations on both sides of the goals a contract. kareem khan made that page on a visit to the occupied westbank. posting an activist so refused to meet him accusing the course of favoring israel. then does. robbie has more from ramallah at the ministry of justice and rama. the chief prosecutor of the world's highest court, meet the victims of israeli occupation. no fee. i didn't look into that and there is no justice. there was justice. things would have been different in palestine when they treat people with the standards, there is no justice item in the remains of my son be out of his buddies withheld. we don't know if he's in a grave or them or the international criminal court. the global community of large
11:17 am

11:18 am
make balance and that he's taking what's going in by this time serious. did you believe in palestinian say trust in global institutions is in short supply. one of palestine is biggest human rights groups refused to meet with the i. c. c. visit at the invitation of israel's not even a signatory to the court insult to injury for palestine, a member of state and for a year his picking and choosing the victims. that's dangerous, they're all future an image of the court seen as the last result for victims. this is a message that no one protects them as a sheet. you have to protect yourself, you know, making a sense of justice to florida. despite hon, vowing to investigate violations on both sides of the conflict, palestinians don't see him as independent serving only his critics say to rubber stamp and illegal occupation zane bus ride the old to 0 roman law in the occupied
11:19 am
westbank. french president, the manual icon has met with capitalism a here in the hong to discuss the latest developments and gaza during the tools to shake to meet him and how model sony stress the need for continuing international efforts to negotiate. a permanency is fine. he said it was needed to protect civilians and to deliver aid. they also discussed a 2 state solution in accordance with un resolutions alia macro, and said if the objective of this will is to destroy a loss and could go on for a decade. the pulse clinic on the more i think this is the moment one is really, authorities need 2 more precisely defined and goals. what does the total destruction of from us mean, and does anyone think it is possible if it has to be a the will will last 10 years? yep. the city did you 100, that can be no long term security for israel in the region. if that security comes at the price of the palestinian lives, affecting public opinion in the regions where you predict, you know, the top us officials of becoming increasingly insistent that israel last fall or
11:20 am
international protect civilians and gaza new remarks by the vice president and the defense secretary follow the resumption of hostilities off to the goal is to say fine, came to an end on friday. how does your cost reports on the sidelines of the cop 28 summit into by us vice president cala harris had a clear message for is real. too many innocent palestinians have been killed. frankly, the scale of civilian suffering and the images and videos coming from gaza are devastating with more than $15000.00 dead in gaza under is really bombardment and ceasefire negotiations. cold off the message of us officials, including defense secretary lloyd austin, has become increasingly insistent that is real, must do more to protect civilians. is this kind of a fight? the center of gravity is the civilian population. and if you drive them into the
11:21 am
arms of the enemy, you replace a technical victory with a strategic a fee. so i have repeatedly made clear to israel's leaders that protecting palestine and civilians and gaza is both or more responsibility a and a strategic imperative. the comments from harris and austin reflect a growing shift from the us, his initial unequivocal support for israel's military actions. but it remains to be seen if they'll be more than just words. the us has provided israel with much of the lease or weapons it is using now in gaza. in the senate this coming week, we'll consider whether to send still more military aid to israel. meanwhile, saturday saw yet more protest in los angeles in washington against the blood shed in gaza. as for what comes after the war, the vice president also outlined in the clearest public terms to date what the west
11:22 am
wishes to see for palestinians. no, forcible displacement, no re occupation, no siege or blockade, no reduction in territory and no use of gaza as a platform for terrorism. she said the us wants to see a unified garza n westbank under the palestinian authority. heidi joe castro algae 0. washington. hello, it's getting more now from she hubbard tansy. he joins us live from washington, dc. she have what should we make of this seeming shifts now and come to her as this time? it was something i mean, to be honest, i think it's the 1st time i've heard a sense of humanity being injected into a conversation about palestinian casualties. i'm deaf, i'm truly my initial plan are devastating. it was to see the policy deductible. lot
11:23 am
the austin, that to britain morality, that it was a more responsibility to, to minimize the measuring cavities. i have anyone in the administration to but morality even when confronted with over 15000 dad and general carpet bombing over chapter folks population. that's the 1st time i've heard morales you've been discussing. this is a president who likes to do a great deal about morality and exam for fee. but actually he barely drove riding, barely ever mentioned palestinian casualties or tumor of children and women. i remember thanksgiving and he was giving fine, so i mean, it's really kept his release, but they wouldn't even mention the power of city and children being released, the women being released. so that's the 1st thought was what was very striking. i just haven't had any humanity being expressed by this administration when it comes to the potter's sitting desk tool box will be really clear that all the ones who are driving this policy that's biting himself with a strong belief and, and this operation ad blinking the secretary of state takes on the been national security advisor,
11:24 am
whether this is for public consumption for regional consumption for, for the base. but we'll have to be seen but by the ones driving the policy and the, the off to the matter as we're doing that. well, she had given those dynamics, what do you then hearing about the level of pressure that the us as assessing or isn't assessing behind the scenes at the moment on israel? what we're close to me here is that there are 2 main concerns of the by the administration right now. one of the miniature operations has the full support of, of the, by the administration. there are 2 main concerns. one, there is a recognition that israel is bombarding a, an enclosed population. they open that prisoner because they have no way to go. so the other concerned about the the same. so i would agree of bombardment that we saw in the north and we were peace of in central, in the southern gaza. and there's no way for it for the gardens to go to the original problem. it has been made that they wouldn't be a new one, was 10 cities in egypt and elsewhere. so that bell, concerned about that. and it's, it seems apparently the, perhaps the best that does all math that we saw the as radius produce
11:25 am
a little zooms of where people can evacuate, where they call. and which also has to be interactive, even though most causes probably don't have any access to just your or why fi, but was pop some response to show up use, right. these are a heating, heating the woman out. so, but that's one main concern. the other is they don't want this to stretch into the hosp, the heat to the presidential campaign. that was the court from last week they, they, they expect us to go off for several weeks. but i don't want it to go into the presidential campaign and effect. mike was popularity with key demographics. any, any further than already has young people are, but americans and in swing states, there was, there's a bunch of interesting articles here i've, heidi, was talking about the bunk check is still bad for anything. any weaponry that is red ones. with no conditionality, there is an infection new biography of job i would just came out by by truck with franklin for an adult about $12021.00 during the bump up and of goes over to it was biden to, to tell him, fair enough in yahoo and say, look, hey man, we're out a run way and the bumble going stopped. clearly, that is not the position of job. i know he can do it any time. he's choosing not to
11:26 am
. shepherd tansy the width of hearing from washington dc. thank you very much. you have well, let's turn now to some other wells news, and at least 4 people have been killed. 42 of us injured, an explosion, the southern philippines. it happened in a university gymnasium in raleigh city, where students were attending a christian gathering. the launch late muslim region has seen fighting in recent years between the military and on groups that think i so well that speak to barnaby low. he joins us now from the capital nella. barnaby. it feels like things have been quiet for, for like a while now in an engine. now, what's the trick of this yeah, this task uh, actually its uh, quite easy and attempting to link what has happened in raleigh, this bombing admin and now state university to what is going on in gaza. people
11:27 am
online already saying that this attack was inspired by hum us or inspired by atrocities being committed by is rarely defense forces against palestinians, depending of course, on one's perspective or which side one is on. but from the point of view of the philippine military, they say that they are looking at all angles right now because we are still in the early stages of investigation. but one particular angle that they're looking into is how certain so called extreme is groups based into southern philippines in the now is retaliating against recent defensive that the philippine military has launched. there was one in, in december for december 1st just a couple of days ago against this group called delta is in the media. and during this offensive 11 members of the is the media were killed now, yesterday, december,
11:28 am
2nd. and there was one defensive as well against the i will say, yeah, group, which is, you know, one of the longest existing extreme is groups based in the southern philippines in the now. and during that defensive, one of the leaders of, i'm a say i was killed in this as, according to the philippine military. and so this is one and build that they are really looking into right now. but based on the statement of president brandon and marcus junior as well, and there might be an element of a for in terrorism here as well, which is something that the defense secretary give brett that you. darl also mentioned during his press conference just a couple of hours ago. so just to give you a, a little bit of context here. and all you mentioned already, verbally was the scene of a months long siege in the southern philippines, between government forces and another extreme screw ice of linked. or at least i still inspired group the multi group back in 2017. now,
11:29 am
according to the philippine military, they have severely weakened the multi group. but this doesn't mean that the group doesn't have the capability to carry out this kind of attack solely just briefly. as you say, this has always been a very difficult area for the government to example authority. i understand it is now meant to be in some kind of transition process for autonomy. that's right. this whole region. yeah. including but always city is part of what's called the bonds tomorrow. a ton was region of muslim mean to now, so for decades and decades said there were separate dis, movements in this region of the philippines. and so there were decades of war between government forces and different separatist groups and these separate this groups have now splintered, but the mean groups have signed piece agreements with the government. and so this is now. 2 an a ton was region that is transitioning,
11:30 am
they have their own parliament, their have their own police forces. but the national government is very much spilling control. there's supposed to be an election to be held for next year or a year after in 2025. and so this very much in transition, it's still very much in a very uh while it still states a fragile time there in mindanao. barnaby. lo with alexis for us from the philippine capital. thank you bonnie: on an as quake of 7.4 magnitude also struck the philippines on saturday, killing at least one pass and residents have now been allowed to attend to their homes with disaster officials that were pushing minus the damage to infrastructure . little than 600 off the shops were recorded that the strongest one, measuring 6.5 and not matching the east african community regional force.
