11:06 am
situation we see unfolding in the gaza strip was entirely foreseeable and preventable. my humanitarian colleagues have described the situation as apple politic. in these circumstances, there is a high risk of atrocity crimes. it's military, have flattened homes, attacked refugee counts, and schools destroyed most unsure which was besieged and foamed. hospitality. owns meant to be protected under international law. for hospital by host control has been attack shell, bones destroyed an empty tent, and this is actually played unprecedented. all the governments in the world, and particularly the governments in the west, i'm named united states. they know that israel has this practice of attracting health care, simulating health care, which is out. so let me click country to the geneva convention for
11:07 am
56 nights. israel has launched garza and its people into darkness. it didn't post a total siege and cutoff electricity had i. i mean, i should say that phone lines and internet during different phases if it's gone and vision, creating panic and fear it's religious bombardment and expanding ground defensive from north to south has displeased the oldest classes population with no way to escape from a death that feeds immune and all of this destruction and incentive are be the, the 5 for the damage. it is clear that it is a step in an episode of zane is subtler colonial project which targets the very existence of the listing. and people on the line monday by this time i watch
11:08 am
a lot of the ink cartridge sticks of this has always been a way of life to israel, floors, and siege. but this is a war of maybe the palestine. is it a paper to moment? israel is waging a war of collective punishment, and the international community has seen a stop. it sounds good to hear. well, israel has flattened gaza once the thriving towns and cities, one of the world's most densely populated areas has been reduced to rubble. here's a look at the expense of the devastation in the north. that's where more than half of all the buildings have been damaged. there's also widespread destruction in central and southern gospel. israel has dropped thousands of tons of bombs on gaza . today the strip is almost uninhabitable. about 1900000 palestinians. that's more than 85 percent of guys. us population have been uprooted from their homes due
11:09 am
to is really bombardments and forced evacuation orders more than a 1000000 palestinians have been sheltering in schools and un facilities. but they to have come under attack. at least 69 schools have been just jordan, the war. it's so far, only 9 of guys us $35.00 hospitals are functioning and only partially with tens of thousands of injuries caused by is really a tax and a rapid spread of infections on diseases. an overcrowded shelter is gaza is now staring at a health catastrophe. we begin our extensive coverage with our 2 correspondence following the story. alan fisher will join us an occupied east jerusalem in a moment. but 1st let's go to honey. my food was enough off that's in the southern gaza strip honey. the scale of the destruction combined with a humanitarian catastrophe is immense. give us a sense of how dallas is, are coping 2 months on of the
11:10 am
small 60 days of ongoing bombardment and artillery, selling and death and destruction and display spend the so far the ministry of health report in more than 15000 policy. and in fact, we're getting closer to the 16000 policy and have been killed with many 1000 of injuries, a little over 25000 of palestinian and critically injured in this war. and then then destruction. if we look at the sheer amount of destruction from north, the south is turning in the city of the tunnel. we're more than 50 percent of the city residential homes, including public facilities and schools and, and hospitals were all destroyed and level to the ground. similar situations happen in gauze and city. we're looking at more than half of the densely populated neighborhoods of the eastern side of gauze that had been destroyed completely. and
11:11 am
if the little bit didn't that central button, the, nor the same as story repeated itself as if there is a war going on between these really military and those residential buildings. but wait a minute, we look at the, uh, the result of it. it's force displacement, where we have 1500000 palestinian have been forced out of their homes under heaves relentless error strikes old pox and squeeze now in the city overhead. there still remaining residents stranded in the central part in the city of highness and in the northern of the gods to under. have you been barbie for those who made it through the southern parts the live, the worst of living conditions. we're talking about serious shortage of, of basic supplies of everything. there is a lack of a space for people to stay in to take a shoulder as honor what designated shoulders in a school are packed with p. for these, these evacuation centers have people beyond their capacity. a school that
11:12 am
can accommodate up 212-1500 students now have 500-7000 evacuated insight in living. the worst of living condition in terms of sanitation, in terms of lack of, of hygiene facilities as all of, of, most of them have been destroyed. but the fact that there is, there is a shortage in the food supply is then a shortage in the medical supply. is an almost 0 access to drinking water as all the that's on the nation is stations across the gust of either destroyed or severely damaged or simply they're not functioning because of the shortage of a fuel. the situations are getting worse by the hour and we look at hospitals where there are at least 9 hospitalized out of the more than 30 medical center and health facilities across the gulf stream. 9 of them are, are functioning, but functioning as low as capacity. possible is give us,
11:13 am
given that there are no medical supplies and there is no fuel to sustain their, their operations here. and so my brother, we're talking about also the spread of infectious diseases and evacuation center. thank you so much, honey for that update from what i found in the south of the gaza strip. let's bring it alan fisher who's joining us not from occupied east jerusalem. so l in 2 months . so i'm just the is really government believes that it's any closer to achieving it's military objectives on garza of the. well let's take a look at their goals and they wanted to release all of the captives that matters totally. some of them. but that came during a c spot and that ended about a week ago. and of course, the certainly said there will be no more cease fires until come us stops to release the cap tips. and we believe that by keeping the military operation ongoing, that is putting pressure on how much they said they were going to destroy how much they've killed the thing around. $5000.00 come us by to it,
11:14 am
but most estimates put how much this trends at around $70000.00 that started including recruits that have come on board because of what they're seeing happening . and guys, and of course they want to be miller tries guys. well, there's been huge, baffles there for 2 months. they haven't even approached that taking over a ton unit a certain jamalia to how much strong holds and many is really absorbers. believe that the most difficult days of fighting are yet to come. so far. all of those objectives at these really seem to be well short, and that is after 2 months of fighting, right, and amongst they is really public. alan, where does the, where it is the moods down there. obviously there are still some is really hostages were held in gaza or is that still remains everyone's focus in israel is that the captives are returned as soon as
11:15 am
possible. and how is the government to change that? they don't really care. they just want that to happen. certain, some of the families would say that they want the captives a ton, and then the government can look at destroy and come us. but the ton of the captives, that's the top priority. what is interesting is that many of those in israel, anecdotally believe that the resumption of fighting after the safe spot was justified simply because all of the captives hadn't been returned. but if you listen to a manual macro, he says, if the idea is to destroy him, us, this fight could last for 10 more years. this will go on for some considerable time . what is interesting is, if you look at the opinion polls the longer the war goes on, the back to benjamin not, you know, whose approval ratings go up. he's still not entirely trusted. a recent pull just the last couple of days. people put what he says, trust him, what he says, it just 4 percent, but they think he's doing a better job. the reality is that he says that my, my quote,
11:16 am
a boss will not be in charge of both guys up on the west bank as long as he's probably minister. that might not be for a long time after the war. and he might be deposed very quickly. this is going to take some time. and these really, it really is a weight of that. but they're also aware that popularity for what they're doing is waning internationally, even in the united states. but it was, a majority is not about 5050 and most viewed appear in countries. most people are against what's happening in gaza. and so they know that while they continue this operation, i'm or 2 months into it. the diplomatic clock is ticking. okay, thank you. so much for all the official reporting from occupied east jerusalem as well. you one secretary general. and so when a good terrorist has invoked his most powerful diplomatic tool known as article 99, to stop israel's cooling of palestinians and gaza, he's directing the security council to discuss the humanitarian catastrophe. i'm just calling for an urgent ceasefire. israel dismissed the moves i knew more
11:17 am
a low and said gutierrez, should resign. it is a very powerful move on behalf of the secretary general. and we hope that members of the security council will be moved by and we will hope the international community will be moved by to uh, to push and put in place a few minutes here and see if i all right, let's bring and mark owen jones, he's an associate professor of at least studies at how about the funding for university. joining us here again on said so i'm just on the action that was taken on behalf of the secretary general and 20 to terrorism. and will this letter suddenly open up space for new council action when it comes to the war and goes on march? and i think in this area, it could have been at the same time, it will still rely on having to have the supports or the big it back is likely us, right? i don't really see it as a substantial move. i mean, we've seen is rel, i'm sick of the trying to undermine anything. i mean, you an agency does it, especially the u. n. w r i o w i. so i don't think it's going to be much of a rebuke. i mean, is rails at hate gutierrez,
11:18 am
but they see him as an enemy ends or they will do their best to try and on demand. this is kind of invocation an article 99. right. so look, take stock for us. 2 months on and off this war we're now hearing reports and you know, claims that had been made at the beginning of the war on october 7th by israel and are now sort of getting the bunk. there's been a lot of misinformation and you were saying in the last hour in fact this information. so are we now getting a clear picture of what exactly happens on october 7th? and how is that impacting the is really narrative. well, i think we're getting a slightly clearer picture, but anyway, it's, it's not too little too late. it's still significant. but all that, this information that felt information about, you know, the, the, the headed babies and, you know, the fact that as well, for example, having 5 on its own civilians that's already being used to mobilize the past 2 months of genocide. right. so the impact of that, this information, it's already achieved, it's subjective, which was to try and launch,
11:19 am
and legitimize public support for this. it's of course, important have a clear picture now because we can look at this the public needs and that's what community can say. oh wow, now we have doubts about whether this was actually a legitimate action. so that will actually be important in trying to volts the public opposition to the war. but at the same time, i don't know if it's going to be it's, it's already done the damage, you know, and i think that's, that's a point. the best information, right? it's about putting a false merits about that as quickly as possible. and as lots of number of possible to try to trick as many people possible to do actions at that moment. so it serves its purpose, right? but what we see is that there are in fact continuing with these actions. and alan was just mentioning from occupied these jerusalem, that popularity right around the world for what israel is doing seems to be waiting . it is waning, and it's you have a really interesting situation here. you have public supports in the, in special community diminishing rapidly. and this is because people are witnessing israel's mortality, they seem is another class just mentioned earlier that also seeing that the narrative that was framed on the 7th is also got
11:20 am
a lot of housing. but at the same time you've got nothing yahoo! who wants to, for of the war? why? because his, his kind of political survival is contingent on him staying in power. this allows him to distract from his domestic rose as legal was at home. and the what was making more popular and we know it was do that's in buffalo leaders. so we guess nothing. yahoo is more pop is more popular than it was before. however, the international community, well, public putting pressure on that comes to stop stop support is right. we still blinking, for example, say that if you have a matter of weeks not months, you do have these 2 conflicting issues and there's nothing. now i think that can happen in terms of it's around narrative that was stopped the tide of support for the palestinians. so i think there is a recommend coming for netanyahu's genocide and gaza look into. i mean, look ahead. now this is probably a long ways away, but to you for see a sort of independent impartial, international investigation taking place into the events of october 7th. but this is, you know, on, on both sides. yeah, i mean on both sides. i mean,
11:21 am
i think right the needs the needs to be an independent investigation or how much that. yeah and into is rather done, but it's not going to happen. i mean, will, the americans is really, is ever agreed to. it will never agree to that. and this is the problem, right? we can talk about the, you know, what happened on the 7th, becoming a bit clara, now the same time, the only way to have a legitimate report. effectual report is to have international, an international team come in to investigate crimes. israel will not allow that and they've almost never allowed this in the history. right. and this is the most important and most profound shift all of you know, mass coming of palestinians and, and is written is that have happened right? definitely not a lot. and if they do allow in international an investigation and they will discover it and it will be framed, administer liked it in a way that only focuses on is rarely casualties, right? but we need thank you so much mark. i want jones. thank you. so head on alta 0, we look at how is real, a silencing palestinian citizens who criticized. it's one of the
11:22 am
the had that let's have a look at the weather across europe and it's a wash out for the west. i'm afraid we go to where the system pulling in of the atlantic bring some very heavy rain to person and the island of island. we've got some yellow warnings out here. also some blast we wins expected. and you can see that rain stretching down across west and pots of friends moving into spain and portugal in on thursday. we have got orange warnings out here. we could see some flooding as that. rain starts to move and it will work is wait for the east to headed that terrace guys across most central area, stretching down into it. today. we have got another weather system that's working its way across the se is bought some heavy snow. so the likes of hungry and those wintry and wet conditions will continue to creep that way. further south across
11:23 am
greece and into to a kia. and you can see the way to weather on friday, moving its way across southern parts of france in central parts of the mediterranean, readings of snow to the alps and northern parts of it to be some improvements. suddenly temperature wise places like london and power, as you can see, 11 degrees celsius said that it remains basically cold across the move in areas of scan today. yeah. and into the north east. we look at moscow, we'll see very cold temperatures and some snow by sunday. that's your weather as the, the
11:24 am
hello again, reminder of the top stories this our 2 months since israel or lawn from us. the military is continuing to drop bombs across scottsdale. at least 16248000 units have been killed almost cost. our children, the relentless bombardment was less than one point. 9000000 palestinians displaced . i'll just say russ correspondence equipment and chevy fee has lost to my 22 members of his family and is really air strikes. his mother and father, along with his siblings, nieces and nephews, were killed when the giovanni refugee camp was bombed by the is really army on wednesday. men and shot a fee was a fun, eunice, when the refugee camp was struck. here's what he had to say. the quality of the lumber map of this my father was killed. he was 87 years old. he lived through the not the bar in 1948 when he was forcibly expelled out of his village to the
11:25 am
northwest of the gaza strip. he was 12 years old then those bitterly painful events remained. compton, his memory until a day he was killed. he used to recounts me the most detailed specifics and he never forgot the names of his neighbors. all those who matched with him and the forcible exodus from his village to jabante a refugee camp to the north of casa, he's been carrying those bits of moments with him. that is why he refused to re live the same vicious events. he always said being expelled south around the strip, he held his ground to the last moment and preferred to die, holding on to his roots, especially since he was a history teacher. he taught thousands of students throughout his career. so did my mother who saved in the education field for 35 years, they always rejected the idea of forcible expulsion, but he is ready, occupation forces that took the land. they refused to succumb to precious. they move from home to home, refusing to leave the north. that was
11:26 am
a destiny. and all i can say is that god is a rock. he is the dispos or of all the fees and then go to the refuge and from him only we gain stream. the alpha 0 media network has denounced the bombing in a statement and said it will pursue all legal steps to hold those accountable for the crime. it's called on the international community and press freedom organizations to work to put an end to these massacres immediately. and to ensure prompt justice for the families of the innocent victims. since they started the war on gaza authorities in israel had been crashing down on palestinian is released citizens. some have been arrested for protesting against the war on social media. lena block their reports. that some of the this isn't as really policeman arresting the palestinian is rarely citizen. she asks what's the reason as he hand called sir? the reason for her arrest is a post on social media. that is really,
11:27 am
authorities deemed inciteful. israel has increased its crack down on the palestinians since the start of the tour and gaza. any voice raised against the war is silenced. and you want expressing solidarity with palestinians in gaza is hushed . a day after the october 7 attacks, the can assist issue a new law that criminalizes the consumption of material, published by what it calls a terrorist organization. they are using the militancy laws, it's time of florida by the lady definition right now. so even if you wrote something that is vague or something that does not go to any kind of finance, just simply showing sympathy with your people. it's also being very nice. so this is the pickups that we are living right now, but everything is being criminal lines into, within your connection over here to an identity, or celebrating good identity as not to me to let him all of doherty's have arrested
11:28 am
and interrogated. $521.00 palestinian citizens for their social media posts and charged 70 of them. nearly 65 were fired from their work after accusations of supporting terrorism on social media. we're speaking about and a huge use of the counter tourism low, especially optic in 24 a which speaks about supporting theaters and, and sympathizing with the, the zation and the expression on the social media related to what's going on to the ongoing board and what's going in god the could be chrome and criminalized. there were no such arrests among jewish is release for their social media posts, despite hundreds of messages of incitement and recess, posts against palestinians, including those in israel. those who have been arrested include artists,
11:29 am
actresses, human rights activist, community leaders and students. some of them were photographed next to these really flag in jail as a way of humiliating them. is really police procedures allow for the extension of their detention to 90 days without seeing a lawyer. meanwhile, furious quieting the voices of solidarity. but many se they refuse to be silent and take the risk of standing up to defend their freedom of expression. leno barclay as his ear satire and political cartoons have long played a unique role in communicating in a way that traditional news media cannot. and during israel's were on gauze, on dozens of artist, have created powerful images and posted them on social media imaging. kimber takes a look. graphic images sketched and pencil,
11:30 am
and some say, cartoons. a more powerful unaccessible and video footage for flight across. especially when the sheer number of images difficult to process. an image that is thrown by cartoon is using methyl for and sometimes symbolism. it can be something easier to take and then the actual images of people who are dying. but at the same time, it has this double effect, or appealing to of various levels that are, can be translated in the mind and then touch the person very visceral schiffer was uses her ought to provide the discussions like this call teen. so the question itself, i think is not something is right to be asked. and i want to show that easy to everybody was the right to die for 75 use palestinians. have you set off with this multi lead messages to protest
11:31 am
against these radio compassion when we use the culture at all.
