[000:00:00;00] the the . ready support for israel security remains unshakable and it always will for us defense secretary lloyd austin's house is rose leadership. that's american will stand by them in guns that for they must abide by the rules of all

the on carry johnson. this is all just here a lot from the lloyd austin also announced as a formation of enabled task force as humans who faced loan some more attacks on ships in the red sea. the group tells i'll just say without people confront any coalition by the rest in the area, the race against time in the supply, the search for others with that band hands off, it is very strikes, killing 90. israel says 2 of its soldiers have been killed in golf and dozens more injured as a mass fights has continued to launch a tax. the it's 00 g n t, that's 2 am in gauze and as well the us defense secretary has been in tel aviv

holding towards us consent grows of israel's minutes. reactions in gaza was speaking alongside is very defense chief you. i've got on the secretary austin said washington would not dictate as well as well. but with the soaring civilian death toll lloyd austin said he's urged is ready the just to do more to protect civilians in gaza. he also announced the launch of a maritime coalition to respond to ongoing attacks by humans who sees on commercial vessels in the red sea. the oil, john b, p, is the latest company to hold shipments through those waters. these attacks are reckless, a dangerous and a violate international law. and so we're taking action to build an international coalition to address this threat. and i would remind you that this is not just a us issue is, this is an international problem, and it deserves international response. and that's why i'm convening

a meeting tomorrow. ministerial meeting was federal ministers and a region and beyond. to, to address this threat a message military wing has released a video showing 3 elderly as many captives held in gaza, pleading with these rarely governments as a tool that release israel has previously describes thoughts, figures as psychological fact. so hybrid joins us live now from occupied easter eastern side, or 1st the in relation to that, how mass video of the is very captive kindly read anything into the timing of its release. yeah, well it's clearly to puts pressure on the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, whose government, because this is the fast video that's been released. certainly since that's the slide came to a very abrupt hospital. so as close during the noise,

austin's visits, as well as his 2nd visit since october, the 7th. now, what with this happening? just a few days off to 3 hostages were killed by the israeli forces themselves, despite putting up a white flag in that very much. i am good, not just the families of those captives, but also the general public visual sunsets and the be sending a message that's if you don't. now more of those hell is cop to the cops. it will be killed. now the video shows of 3 elderly is riley men. one of these family members has been speaking to his writing media already saying that she recognized the 84 year old and says that he looks a lot older than when he was taken across into gauze. there and of course some of those people have medical conditions, so this will definitely certainly be bringing a lot more anguish for those families that definitely wants to see that family members coming home at that time. when you have these riley,

a will cabinet saying that the only way forward is true this minutes reaction. i'm with now hearing more and more demands from those families to say, but this is not the way forward. and certainly some of those concepts themselves that have been released from now being moved vocal saying that the only way is through is the spa. and what more do we know about this maritime coalition? the us defense secretary, also in uh yeah, this comes uh, also back cuz the last few days, whether you guys had been indicating that this would be the case. well, this is destiny. now. sutton, starting with 9 austin, confirming that his ju, to visit behind tomorrow, they'll be housing as actual meets your needs and calls the operation prosperity. guardian, saying that it comes under the umbrella of task force, 153, also the combined maritime forces. now task 153 is like she had quoted in behind

and it involves a. c c, 9 countries, which also includes our countries, it includes the g, c, c member states, as well as the countries like jordan and egypt bought the countries i mentioned in that press release. all not including those are of countries. so you have the u. k . kind of the font, it's nice by no way netherlands and say shows we are in need of that country. i'm at least one country being behind. so that's going to be questions, obviously as to whether the lights of egypt, which is one of the country's most deeply affected by this because of the so is canal and because of the ships not being able to move through there any more that whether that will be taking part or not will be the question because some of them don't want to be cool top between taking part in a task force, certainly military or you by using the navy naval force on the same time they are, which is what the homes have been saying all along is that they are carrying out these attacks, especially against his ro,

any ships that is deemed to be heading towards is ro, old, has any links with israel. and certainly the arabic countries. what wants to be seen to be taking part in something which signs of course, against israel, which is carrying out but will in gaza and know if you've had the service in for sar. thank you. as well as an indications of a meeting and also involving the head of the c i a category. and these really officials to discuss the possible release of more is really captives held in gaza popsicle heinous photo developments from washington dc. so far, we know really pretty much nothing, even the ca spokesperson wasn't confirmed that he was in poland. so why are people reading so much into this? well, because when the principals get on a plane and go some place that's usually an indication that there's potential movement, they can send their under secretaries and to do the basic negotiations. but in

washington, any way you don't really see some of the bill birds of stature get on a plane. unless something could come out of that. he was there in the region, doing the negotiations between all of the parties before this 1st cease fire happened. so now there's no indication, as john kirby said that it was imminent, but it is clear at least something to the by the ministration wants to see happen. and bill burns, i want to point out, is fairly unique in the by the administration. in his respect is ability to speak in the region. he with long term time diplomat, very well respected. so he's been given the charge of trying to make this happen. there's going to be a different calculus when you start talking a trade in is really soldiers. for palestinian prisoners, all of that has to be worked out. the fact that birds we believe is in the region, it is a probably could be an important step is really strikes on the line and this throughout the refugee camp and central gods of kills at least 9 people. of

the 5 children were among the dead residents having scrambling into a dog which one who victims from the rubble of buildings in a residential area. many people will say in these very ami says 2 more soldiers have been killed in gaza. it also says $48.00 troops of an inch in the past 24 hours. and i says military wing has released new video sharing some of the fighting at the moment. c 2 m s fights is i've seen striking is really tying some cheats with anti tank missiles. the 12 year old go has been killed in an israeli attack on and i saw hospital in con, use the same died when a shell hit the pediatric board, where she and several other children, with sheltering she had already lost half timely on her leg in the midst of the

attack on that house last month she had told elders here about the hopes and dreams, then and the head of the nav, i hope to be a doctor to help people. now my life is changing. they have gone. we are alone now without them. i was connected to this life because i was very much connected to my mother's father and siblings who died. but i must continue despite the fact that i will never forget them all in ralph are in the south of gauze, the families of displaced, palestinians are struggling to find food for the new phones. crucial items night diapers and milk of either become too expensive or impossible to find hard as it reports. all these babies have been born in to and political marion assembly cease to have future displace twice his mother. and grandmother is roughly cost is going to be able to get back to wait time. you're

most likely. i'm how many i'm heading over to that. it says we came to these tensor while she was still a newborn baby. was born into with ok and rough uh we had the product of everything and this is all she's seen of the last few weeks old. and we're really struck by tragedy to american best parents have been killed to mother is in charge of the center and don't have the parents have no one lined it was there were sick. the mother was incomplete show when she found herself giving back one money like losing her family. the other. how is this possible? haven't received harry i was having to survive with legal protection except for these blankets and take grandmother's own money displaced children in southern guns. spend the formative weeks lane cooled down tents, diapers, mail, and even water, hard to come for you. as you can see,

these babies don't have shelter. they were not flushed since the day they were born . they are a month old now and if not being based and yet, do you see the space they are living in a 1000 children have been killed since. don't israel's underground defensive and goes all the way with health organization for supporting of health risk of diseases like diarrhea. but they are fully few function like hospitals seem to solve this cause of doctors. the struggle to meet the needs of pregnant women and new phones. this mother is cause the baby to leave the sort of fun, but the, uh, the situation is extremely difficult. we don't in offering so she's not guessing best male bin and the baby gets scared whenever there are as strikes. she wakes up and cries all the time, the shape 5 years for marion to lead. the future looks very terrifying. and also

giving the families only free for a clean room to buy them for a safe place to raise been taught. recognize in rough i would just euro human rights watch was accused israel, of using starvation is a weapon of war. the organization is quoted on, well, the, just to speak out against when he calls on, on our end to crime, which is 0, has spoken to civilians in gaza about the west and conditions that facing as food and water becomes increasingly scarce. to know how reports the looking food there is often has to go a long way the board once was taken for granted has now become a luxury to day a ton unintentionally that we're facing more than one more. we face the is really are moving all the shelling and boom apartment. we also face starvation. i have a family of 14 members. i'm suffering

a lot to be able to feed them. and unfortunately, this in itself is in other words that have how a new report by human rights watch accuses these rated government, told the deliberate intent to deprive civilians of food, water, and fuel. the government, it says, is using starvation of civilians as a method of warfare in the gaza strip, which the group says is a war crime that other than mom i've had. well, we never faced surveys and no food shortage in the previous wars. we've never been in tens before. the situation is very disgusting in addition to the lack of food and water, we're human beings, even dogs and other animals can't tolerate to stay where we are staying now. human rights watch says he's really forced. these are willfully impeding humanitarian assistance, while the aid agencies report the destruction of bakeries and grey mills agricultural

land, water and sanitation facilities. since mid november, optima is really forces to control the farm land around noon and northeast and gaza . satellite imagery shows the systematic destruction of orchards fields in green houses or reduced civilian se, food scarcity has driven prices beyond the reach of many statements by has really additional spelling out in clear terms that their strategy or policy is the start of civilians. as a tool, a lot of bridge to achieve political outcomes, whether it be release of hostages, destruction from us putting it all together, you reach the clear conclusion that the israeli government is using starvation as a webinar for which isn't a warrant or another necessity of life and then they have a dwindling results. world food program says access to watering. garza falls well

sure to the basic survival level requirement. i think 1st to hung up in a crisis of survival journal, how elder 0 are coming up off to the break and national security trial openings for permanent hong kong active. this in the line is facing a potential launch sentence. the what constitutes extent. so we just talked, you were saying, i want you to start with just the fence right as to what happened as independent. we want these, we want the education. my wants to be the we don't have lead them in different countries policy. i'm going to get 50 percent representation and accountability and benefit knowing that was and service the claimant. and you're saying you don't have your reports with it. i should just trust that unity austin

is 5 times the crew that used to produce outstanding gentleness and elders. the integrity in the pursuit of thought provoking on. but the patient doesn't have time to wait for the next truly. unfortunately, there are no quick wins and events or research hard hitting interviews. do you feel like america is less than the days of these days, or is it just a different full? i think the demography of the process facing realities. do you see that the fracture is already starting the g 7 in the us on one side, china and the brakes on the other? i assume there is a huge risk of death to happen via the stores on tools to how does era the

the without the center of the headlines for us defense chief is urging israel to do more to protect civilians and it's more on concept lloyd also to speak to you during a visit to tennessee, also a 3rd time co addition to respond to ongoing attacks by lucy's ships in the red sea . it's rarely strikes on the outside uh a nozzle that set the refugee camp and central gun tubes, at least 9 people who've been trying to pull victims from the buildings residential area. the human rights watch is a tuesday, is very the government's of using stone station as a method of warren concepts, saying it amounts to bullcrap organization says that the deliberate attempt deprives of food and the when the security council is expected to vote on a new resolution quoting for an urgent and sustainable cease 5 and gaza. well that

this was a vision expense on monday evening, but has been postponed until tuesday. it comes days off the un general assembly post a non binding resolution quoting for humanitarian cx. 5 is growing international pressure on these ro, to stop killing civilians in this trip. well, the 19000 have been killed since israel began its way up to about gabriel. that is on those for those developments at united nations. some of the security council members behind the scenes are doing closed door negotiations, if you will, at this very hour to try to come up with a different draft or wording that would be acceptable to the united states. the key sticking point we believe, of course, is sation of hostilities the united states and israel say that any resolution that has those words and it is a can to a cease fire. and they say that would only benefit from us. and so the us would

reserve it's vito power as it has done in the past. so that is what we really think of the sticking points. and that's really what we're, we're thinking that they're trying to work out some sort of language there. it should also be noted though they're also in this resolution, it calls for the un to monitor all of the aid distribution in guys as well. that's something that's new in any of the previous security council. drafts never had that wording in it. the reforms on the security council or proposal history for and the security council been going on for many years now. but they've really come into focus here since october 7th, primarily because the security council is tasked with maintaining peace and security around the world. that's really their mandate, if you will, but because these 5 permanent members, the us being one, china and russia being 2 of the others, can use their veto power and, and russian, china have used it since october 7th, to be, to uh,

resolutions by the united states. and the united states has used it at least twice since october 7th, as well to block any sort of un security council resolutions that called for a ceasefire. so this is the real issue here. and of course, the general assembly just last week voted overwhelmingly a 153 countries in the general assembly voted for a resolution for a ceasefire. that's the opinion of the mass, the vast majority of the world. however, general assembly resolutions are not legally binding internet international law. however, the ones in the security council are, and that's why we're watching so closely for any sort of resolutions that come out of the security council, the spring you, some of the world news you and says at least a quarter of a 1000000, the people displaced by fighting incidents, capital accounting, i mean,
