nations in new york. talking about goes live for us and drop in southern guns. i mean, just in the last hour. so we've only seen pictures from northern garza, of some large clouds of smoke. we've been hearing also about stuff that has been happening in ross. i just bring this up to date with what's going on of the yes donald, there are more tragedies in more more concern and fear for us the god. as we're seeing, as far as in the artillery selling of the, of the different areas in the gauze and serve just within the past the of the you, the hours they, there are still are you still going has started a targeting areas in the eastern side of the gaza strip along the borders with more exchange of extremely serious buyer. the eastern side of rough i here particular area of for evacuees and displaced a policy in it. but we're getting confirmed report of multiple injuries as one at
3:05 pm
one residential home was directly targeted by artillery as showing. and there are reports of those injuries taken to you and the jar hospital that's in, in the eastern part of brooklyn city. but as of earlier hours of, of to day as an evacuation in school in han, eunice at the early hours of this morning was, was targeted 12 people where were killed. the vast majority happened to be women and, and its children and multiple other injuries about a $25.00 of serious injuries abroad, all due to nasir at hospitals in the northern part where a more of residential remaining residential buildings in the bid. i have district, that's the northern part of the more of the residential building where level to the ground completed. but what we got, that is something that is really devastating to people in han units because of those who are already evacuated to the western side of hon. eunice, the area is. busy of people is packed, overwhelmed,
3:06 pm
we're talking about overland health system and over one market that doesn't have it doesn't a is not able to sustain people would, that would not necessitate for coming this button. the new at leaflets were dropped . a mcginn on the eastern side of honey was and central high noon is this time ordering them to start moving uh do was run a 100 units in and of the attempt to keep pushing people to a loss, the area and hon. you. and if this is a different area, then alamo off evacuations on here in robot. they are both located to the western side of both city is near the uh, the see the coast of the costa road, but in hon. units were talking about uh, even a smaller area than the area here in right. but how many open agriculture land that is only good for agriculture. uh, but not at 4 is setting up tens and staying there. uh for uh, 4 days as a displaced person. this of course, adds to the already a terrible misery of hello send you ive been displaced for the past
3:07 pm
a few days as there was a search and 10 city of of the air bombardment and the, the ground the the operations uh on the ground hunting talk to us about the age that has been getting and we know of course, that the amount of a that is, is being allowed and isn't nearly anything like what we used to get into guys or talk to us about the kind of conditions that people are facing and what a they're able to get as well as of, of, of these they is that they're almost the 8 a, a in 3 to goes on and non existence that due to the restrictions and the, the total prevention of the these really on the entrance of of a trucks and to go there were talk the in the past few a few days about the increase the amount of it fuel from 820000 leaders into 100 a through a little over then that but as of now we haven't seen any of this off, like any concrete evidence on, on the,
3:08 pm
on the graph. but in terms of food supplies and medical supplies at any amount that has been allowed into gaza is only a little compared to the needs. the dire need of, of people we, we keep talking to people who took them to talk about express frustration over the fact they're not getting any of these a display without food. they don't have access to clean the clean water, maybe a vulnerable group. the david in this situation, the children and women when when comes about survival items for, for women in terms of sanitation pods, in terms of, of things that help them survive eligible for children. those at 45 meg for minute . the are essential for the growth of little and friends and, and, and children. old did not exist the in the market. and on top of that, people are living it through a very difficult situations. the a, the amount is nowhere near the needs of what people here are going through. it's
3:09 pm
very difficult that we can safely say it. just as the star vision assigns a bit of started to appear in different parts of the gaza strip. and time of move in as often in southern guns or honey. thank you very much. indeed with us and national security advisor, james sullivan, the set to meet palestinian authority, president mahmoud abbas, and the coming hours on thursday. you how told so these are the prime minister benjamin netanyahu said the war in guys that needed to transition to i quote, lower intensity phase. we had a very constructive conversation yesterday about the transition from the high intensity phase forward. and we expect that that will occur in the future when exactly that happens and under exact exactly what conditions will be continuing intensive discussion between the united states and israel. and i will make sure that that conversation, at least as far as i can do it is going to state is going to take place, buying close doors off or on the side of his visit with his ready officials were gonna bring in. brandon smith is joining us live from tennessee. i'm trying to,
3:10 pm
was there any indication that jake sullivan was actually bringing a message to the is there any officials or was it more of a court of simply keeping in touch and keeping abreast of what was going on of the rope, jack, someone's less stop was with these rarely printed it for present, it cuts solid, he's now on his way to be occupied westbank. and as well as that message that the pool, it's about one thing, these re lease to move to a low intensity phase of the war. and they will not be americans in weeks round of the month. so there was no promise from these. riley's publicly that that's gonna happen. some of them was also talking about what happens in gaza after the americans very keen for the palestinian or far as you to be involved somehow in the administration of gauze when the war ends. the big problem it has that is that these riley leadership has no interest in a 2 state solution at the moment. that's what the americans still have in that mind
3:11 pm
. so there's no interest in having to be involved in the governments of god also amongst palestinians. the palm of the pallet, housing authority remains wildly on popular the latest pulls at 88 percent of power, steering's believe present mood, a boss should resign. so even if the american some i managed to get that way and have the p a involved in gaza. it's very difficult, see, but what legitimacy the p a would i would have that very quickly. all so once concession, that seems to come out to be as well as cabinet after sullivan's visit. is it as well as agreed to open the crime shalom crossing from miss riley to cause a business of goods crossing? it's been closed since october 7th. i'm good say that we'll come. we'll come from egypt into his riley. tired tree be inspected before credential and passed into gauze that should make a significant difference in a delivery crime. shalom was always a good crossing point. it is not even as a, a pipeline fuel rough uh, weather product truck passing a to the bottom is not really designed for goods. so the idea is they should be
3:12 pm
able to get more 8 in yet. and brandon does, they've done. i understand that there are protests continue against the war there is, it's very small. i mean, the majority of israeli opinion is still firmly behind the government's prosecution of this war to wipe out how much as they say. but there are some dissenting voices around. and this is what one of those protests have to say to me on the people who have made history were always a minority and usually anti war activist and people who didn't have the popular opinion. and we're usually the 1st one, the number of majority, and we're never the popular opinion, but you out, you have to start from somewhere and you have to, even in the most horrible circumstances the, you know, a reason, a reasonable human voice. so for the women here, you know, people tell us it's not the time, you know, we're in the middle of the world. this is exactly what the government wants us to
3:13 pm
do to shut up and get it. we are in silence here because we are in deep been being silent. but silence has always, you know, it always serves the power. the so we have to do something, we have to do anything more power and more booms and more aggression will not, doesn't bring peace on his right. and he's also mainly want to see that government make progress on releasing the rest of the cap. saves from gaza on that, and we've had indications on these ran the government again after upon american pressure the next week as well might be in a position to see if we can make any progress on restarting hostage negotiations. israel has said, now is not the time because they believe that by next week they'll be in a strong position militarily over how much to sort of extract more concessions run by the thank you very much indeed. bonus smith in tennessee for child stipends in
3:14 pm
janine in the occupied last spring. and that is the scene of many ways that you've been reporting on the teams have been reporting on over the last several weeks or so. i want to talk to the about those in a moment. that's talking about jake sullivan, missing mahmoud abbas. what kind of a reception do we think she's likely to get? and also, what is my mood of boss going to be trying to achieve in that meeting? i think it's fair to say that certainly the reception amongst the palestinians in places like a janine they have absolutely 0 faith in any kind of certainly american leg, diplomatic effort in the meeting like this between jake sullivan boss, because like fundamentally blame washington, they blame the americans 1st standing storage, the behind israel in creating a situation like this. where not only do they support is where it is actions in, in garza, but they support actually with respect to the increase these riley ministry rates
3:15 pm
that we've seen across the west bank. they don't fail, so the palestinians don't really see if they've done enough to stop set level islands to stop these. why the government from seemingly of these tacitly supporting set low violence. there's also this sense that a boss himself is stuck between a role and a whole a place because many palestinians as well believe a bass for basically not being loud enough for these criticism. not being able to do. and i'll just stop situations like this to stop these rights to stop set with violence to just stop the war and gall. so at least just to say stuff, but is taken seriously enough by the americans in order to, for example, you know, create a situation for a, for another c spa, a bus. as long as the scene is being pretty redundant, certainly among palestinians that you speak to in places like get in. so yeah, it's going to be very interesting to see what in fact he wants,
3:16 pm
he's going to want increasing. he's going to be wanting assurances from the americans from sullivan, the sullivan can actually put the pressure on these riley's to stop, for example, right on towns, villages, and cities across the west bank to stop set level violence. and to ensure that. busy what sullivan seems to say, well, the americans won't go calls us just to avoid civilian casualties and for it to scale down the boss is going to want to hit that kind of thing too. but as far as the level of trust and focus on general palestinians, the general palestinians population in places like janine right the way across the board was fine. there's very little fights that much can come out of this meeting. so now you're engineering where the longest rates since the war broke, it has actually just finally ended once being the result. and all of that lot of all, it's not able to pass around to show you, for example, up the street out what you're looking at. there is the,
3:17 pm
the level of destruction that could be caused by one of these homage pull those is that have been used to such devastating affected rates like janine basically right . you say was the largest most expensive longest right, that we've had on the time here. these are private property buildings that shops and houses that have a being destroyed us up on the walls. i'm looking at bullet scowls as you can see where they have been stepping trashes. it's difficult to know whether in fact, those, but it holds it from the most recent right, or the countless raids that this city i'm the time suffers from almost continuously and has done since the beginning of the war. but let's not forget long before the war started also, so we'd be speaking to people about their experiences. during the last ride we spoke to the ship the most, for example, the most where we sold. that is why the soldiers standing up and reciting
3:18 pm
a jewish breast that echoed out right away across the camp as people have terrified in the houses and is seen as such an incitement as a form of psychological will for if you like him to shake was saying that the crowns and the most with destroyed. people also saying that from now on, they are waiting for, for example, even prayers. and then they leaving because they don't trust the fact that you know the call be another right. people are very much on tenterhooks, fully expecting a right at any noise. so yeah, people are picking up the pieces here, but the ship that the general feeling in the campus. one of the like, solidarity with what's happening in garza. but there's no sign really. that is breaking the political will of the people here, many of whom say that they all i'm resistance. that is why and these go off to, in places like this is elizabeth kitchen, looked full of,
3:19 pm
of resistance against the occupied occupying policies. but so yeah, you know, 1112 people killed in the rage that ended yesterday, including mine is say people typically expecting that these rates are going to continue. and they're looking at this visit project sullivan. a bass is basically what minds would just be pretty much a waste of time. that sounds perfect. talking to us from jenny, me up to 5 west by charles, thank you. the still ahead on all the 0. a cold weather sweeping across launch pots of china dumping, snow ice on record low temperatures. the had a low that was not in south america, and it's a story of severe storms across southern parts of the continent. you can see them
3:20 pm
rumbling their way across northern pots of argentine, that they've already caused some significant flooding here. and that weather is set to work its way towards power line and southern pops up. so we could see some flooding from the heavy rain. now behind that system, we've got another weather front pulling into southern parts of chile. that'll drop the temperature in santiago as it brings the rain with it further north working in to saturday. but it's still a story of heat for cities like when no service as well as we are diginero. we've got warnings out for that heat across the launch areas of brazil, the temperature in rio de janeiro about 7 degrees above the average for this time if yeah, so much cooler. however, across the north with heavy rain continuing to pull into northern parts of equity, sparking some warnings on a potential flood threat that was moved to central america. it's a story of rainy. here. we've got an area of low pressure developing in the gulf of mexico. it's going to drench that. you could turn financial on friday. it will intensify as it shifts its way further east. bringing some of those gusty winds
3:21 pm
with it, bringing heavy rain to have on the on saturday and the florida peninsula of the weekend. the, the, the, you're watching or does it have a mind of its own stories? those are, is just my mom and of guys a has entered, it's 70, it states with china and fun, unisons, roughly in the sides. soldiers have faded to come all on one hospital for the 3rd time north, detaining. then they say, how much spices is there any forces event at the most intense range in the occupied was buying since the war began in charge of injury started on tuesday morning in $500.00 people would be interested in the at least 12 palestinians the us national security advisor jake sullivan says these are very constructive conversation with
3:22 pm
this any 5 minutes or benjamin netanyahu about transitioning from a high intensity phase. and this was on gaza sullivan set to meet the palestinian president. a boss this hour. we're going to bring into my one of the shot and he's, i'll just see it as a senior political analyst. and let's talk about jig sullivan's message visit 1st of all. so we've had visits from joe by the us president. we've had visits from the us and the secretary of state. now we have the national security advisor. what's your analysis of what sullivan is trying to achieve with this? you know, we weren't expecting sullivan to address president biden's improvise statement on tuesday night, where he accused is varieties of discriminant bombings of guys, which is a war crime. and the idea that is right need to change his government. it's to find that the prof. i shifted even to american space, but judging from his statements at the press conference,
3:23 pm
he's that probably to repair the damage apparently for what uh by them side. because the one where the hopes that he would be doubling down on what by then said in order to send that message to these right, is that what they are doing is the wrong. and it's putting both, is there a and the united states in a bind, america's losing credibility by the new school isn't going to go to the ability internationally and in the united states. but once again, no one has to be disappointed by the american official statements. you know, here it is, it's a press conference and you would hear them once like, you know, according for example, october 7 attack on, is there a criminal? so if the, if the beginning of how much the beginning of one is the right one is there a child is criminal, what do you call? is there a just kidding of 7000? is there any kind of financial? this is a question for an american know for sure that's trying to be you know, the pay to of this issue. the one who's kind of guiding is right and i'm,
3:24 pm
it is through, it's the time. right? but the budget administration has taken such a one sided view of this issue, justifying the beginning of thousands of on thousands of policy in the bombings of hospitals and schools. that one wonders. why do the americans keep coming to the region? if that's what the message j, if it's just one of the say, now, yes, there is this idea that you just mentioned about phasing out the fighting. but that's something is right. there's already been thinking about it already in the logic of one of the longest. probably the, almost the longest 11 on kind of almost 5 to 7 today is now we're almost in the logic of this is the longest. is there any war in its history? there's a does not want to fight wars for a long time. is one is a state of war, but doesn't actually want to fight wars for too long. it cannot afford to have $3300000.00 or service on duty in action all the time is losing more than
3:25 pm
a quarter of a $1000000000.00 a day. so that is basically understood, the message from the advisor administration should have been far more clear or far more balanced, you know, considering the in balance of power in this conflict in this war, whereby tens of thousands of casualties or didn't somewhere in the positive, better sense but it is what it is. let me ask you about this, this element that you refer to you about, and that is america's credibility. and all of this, this is being a retiring subject that we have been discussing some pretty much since the conflict began. is there a way, do you think that to the bottom administration would be able to ameliorate or extricate itself from this situation? given the fact that it, it appears publicly as though america is essentially following israel's lead and all of this, but actually appears to have very level of control. that's very true. in fact,
3:26 pm
there is an idea today that's been proposed in the new york times. the new spic. but of that record by 2 former american officials basically saying it's time that's the 1st sentence, stein, it's time for the united states to recognize the palestinian state. i think that's an interesting idea, at least for the by that administration police, for america. if not for the palestinians and israelis, meaning the by the solution is so discredited today that we've been discussing the, the, the lack of credibility of this administration. the hypocrisy, the spend, the, the one sidedness, the, the other thing, these really lines us on so forth. so the idea that's presented to the new york times today, we addressed it several times here, but the fact is coming from american official affordable officials by saying, look, if america today works,
3:27 pm
it's stock walks. let's talk about the 2 state solution by recognizing today the palestinian state that's already been looked at guys by more than 2 thirds of the world, united nations mentors. but it would do a service, it would actually have a several objectives. one, it was for some credibility over the by the administration. it was 2nd to shut off america's allies in the region like egypt, saudi arabia, and others behind the, by the administration. it's what kind of repair some of the damage caused by its short sighted position on garza and it was delivered a more balanced view. i'm a more stable framework of where this thing is going. so the idea of the 2 states, a lot of the detractors, what do you mean just to say, but it's not feasible with $700.00 plus been 700000 illegal settlers and more than $200.00 illegal supplements and occupied westbank. i'm just curious that,
3:28 pm
that's probably true, but quickly i would say the following, at least you would have laid out the framework. where do i asked of that? once now the, by this time become a state the negotiation between palestine and is right over the future between that and whether it's for duration configuration, whatever it is, one state, you know, moving forward to the distant future becomes more feasible. moment. thank you very much indeed my one bush out or we appreciate it. thank you. so israel says and seeking a diplomatic resolution with other nations to ensure safety and it's north, mid cross border fighting because of all that. but the liberties on the group says it won't engage in any discussions about border security until israel ceases, is activities and guidance. and i called the reports from the israel is increasing the pressure on the battlefield as it looks for a supplements with the arms group has the law that would allow residents to return to towns and villages and the north of the country. america, the defense minister,
3:29 pm
your of gallano, is calling for a safe its own on levon, on the side of the border and international efforts are reportedly looking into the possible deployment of french troops and all of them trying to find the diploma solution that you were close international falls not belongs to the way and because the easy way is it doesn't believe in him over to you in which you are free to leave with losses. but your domestic foster with the ability toward back home like a i just went up. it's a similar proposal to the one put forward by as well during its last or with has the law in 2006, but it wasn't able to achieve at school. the demilitarized ation as a group militarily, or diplomatically. instead and large u. n. force was deployed with, with no mandate to forcibly create a border zone, free of weapons,
3:30 pm
and fighters outside state control. thought it meant 3 was levels for administer. at the time. every morning you'll have somebody as variety or for should a strengthening to either in fade and destroy a implemented as a nurse, and 17 or one by force or get it on the chapter 7. i mean, and i think most of that is, i'm realistic. but in the meantime that are other a diplomatic so many different multics your initiatives, you might want to call them during his last visit to 11 on us mediator amas. hush time raised the issue of land border delia nation as a way to end the conflict. but as well as says, it won't negotiate, as long as, as well as aggression and cause it continues. it also reiterated
