1:04 pm
some hungry on the dramatize california. but it is it, despite the situation, it's a story that, that shows shows the a, the solar there at the end, the composite and the strength of, of palestinians. in fact, what we see in here is, is long q of people. and mainly children and women are here for this. one means that they're able to get it. they're coming in from different parts of, of dropbox, email from evacuation centers or from areas evacuation. areas where do set up their, their tense, but, but what force, what force them to come to this stupid soon to get their free meal is the fact there is nothing available that day evacuation centers in terms of food supplies and water supplies. and in terms of the human, is there an aid that being allowed into god that has not been it's not enough for the many 1000 palestinians. it's important to drop the pensions of our if you are, the rock is city of the small city compared to the other citizens across the
1:05 pm
palestinian territories. but with that, with a population of 260000 people live in it. but as people get boring and throughout the city displaced from across the gospel, we're talking about at least 1000000 230-0000 people. they are living under pars, living conditions that is characterized by lack of the re, a basic things that they need for their there's their bible, not only food and water, but also medical supplies on. and that's what the stairs are by the license. and honey, well, what's the latest we're hearing as well on, on, on the strikes these strikes in jamalia and drop off where you are you don't have them. it's likely that we're seeing this line get longer and longer by the coming days, as more people are becoming the place as a direct result of the ongoing relentless airs. right. so in rough safety we're seeing within the past few days,
1:06 pm
we see more people are becoming displaced. as more residential homes are being targeted just over night, the to 29. people have been killed in rock alone when it's rivers have been so busy were targeted and turned into a pile of ruins, including a baby, a very little baby, as well as a journalist. but the vast majority, we're looking at the children under the age of 10, as well as women who make up the vast majority of, of casualties and due to have been killed by these really errors writes. unfortunately, these are area that being a, this designated as bayport. evacuated in the list palestinians, but the only find themselves of the victims of those on a predictable fall in bonds. and not only today, but since the beginning of the war. and over the last weeks we see in stars, you'll be roland. there's right, going more palestinians in fox valley in an hour. they killed out that at the large numbers in the past few days. all right,
1:07 pm
honey was need life was there and roughly thank you. a human is human rights watch, has accused israel of using starvation as a weapon of war. the organization is cooling on world. lead is to speak out against what it calls an abhorrent will crime. exit has spoken to civilians in garza about the west and in conditions that facing as food and water become increasingly scarce . don't know how it ripples a little food there is often has to go a long way. the world once was taken for granted. has now become a luxury to day a ton into is it that we're facing more than one more? the face to is really are moving all the shelling and bombardment. 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,
1:08 pm
that of how the new report by human rights watch accuses these rated government till 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 i've, i've done mom i've had, well, we never faced sort of ation 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, where human beings, even dogs and other animals can't tolerate to stay where we're staying now. human rights watch says he's really false. these are willfully impeding humanitarian assistance. while the 8 agencies report the destruction of bakeries in grain 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
1:09 pm
. satellite imagery shows the systematic destruction of orchards fields and green houses or reduce to civilian safe 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 of leverage to achieve local outcomes, whether it be released as hostages instructions from us putting it all together, you've reached the clear conclusion that the israeli government is using surveys and as a webinar for which isn't a warrant or another necessity of life. and then if it dwindling results, world food programs has access to watering gauze, or falls well show to the basic survival level requirement. i think 1st to hung up in a crisis of survival. jo, nicole elders,
1:10 pm
either of these really ami has also targeted the dead and bella and in good age refugee camps and central garza can at least 13 pallets things. the people have been scrambling to pull survivors from under the rubble of buildings in a residential area. several of the engine will take him to the hospital before displaced palestinians and living conditions continue to get worse. it is a struggle to find food, water, and other basic necessities. as in who body reports from dated by allison hughes continues to are going to find their basic needs to live. we are currently, as you see behind me, a place where palestinians are living. they set up their tents in the street surrounding. ok, so hospitality in that and we talked to a lot of people. they are telling us that the situation is disastrous. dates in
1:11 pm
every single morning strive to find water to find food for their kids. and aids coming is not covering all across the causes to another thing. policy means told us that it's very hard for them to find medicine. the pharmacies where painkillers and influenza of medicine are not available along with incident and diabetes medicine and a lot of other medicines that are not available anymore in the cause of palestinians. here are living their daily lives as you see their laundry on these ropes, searching for sunlight. and this is how a the tents have been effected by the rain that occurred in the past
1:12 pm
couple of days. the people are telling us that their biggest fear is rain. they don't want the rain because there has been a lot of kids and their tents are very for dried and not strong enough to protect them from the rain. the situation is catastrophe, and people want this to end as soon as possible. calling for seas wire. this is in the city for audra 0 garza that has been how much is military wing has released a video showing 3 elderly is really captives held in gaza. and it, they played with the government to secure their release as well as previously described videos like this as psychological warfare. well, let's go live now to alan fisher, who is in occupied east jerusalem for asylum. what's been the, is really a response to these cat, this captains video of the well news of this video certainly don't mean anything is really television,
1:13 pm
although they like how just need to know it. showing the pictures of the 3 men that are featured as not knowing when this was recorded, but the families of the main say they look tired. that is, if they have been in captivity for some considerable time, what is certainly making it impact is the message from these men in the seventy's and eighty's. they're saying, look, we helped funding this thing to visit, we helped fund some of the components is around the guys of the government has to do more to help us because we help create the state. and that is a very emotional room, that message to pass to the people who are putting pressure on the government to do more to free captives know these really government. it'd be very clear. they think that this is essentially a psychological warfare. they call this an atrocity that how much is doing this? and there's also a response from these really government asking where the international red cross right crescent is saying that that and the other humanitarian organizations should
1:14 pm
be trying to gain access to the $124.00 captives that are still held in gas. that we don't know how many of them are still alive, but they say they should be trying to get access to make sure that they're being kept in, in relatively good conditions. and also that they're getting access to the food water, but particularly the medication that many of them need. but clearly the timing of this, the lease coming just a few days after the state of the government was under pressure because 3 captives were shot dead by the israeli army as the try to to get to freedom. then this just puts more pressure on the government to do more to try and release those being held captive. yeah. and, and where are we on that right now and what, what discussions all we hearing about a possible new captives to you? well the suggestion is, is that it's close and if you look for all the pieces independently and they start to bring them together,
1:15 pm
you can see why people are making that assumption. first of all, there was the head of most sides, the external intelligence service in israel, who was sent to europe on friday to talk to the could tati prime minister. the can tardies of course, have links and code you. it's to how boss, he then returns to israel, essentially would have given the guidelines of any possible deal to the war cabinet and then was sent back and wasn't more so on monday evening to cut a more discussions the odds to the mix. the billboard who is the head of a c, i a, the us intelligence service us. it made the return of the captives a priority. he also flew towards so and he doesn't fly into war. so unless there is the basis some sort of a deal. but everything is complicated by how much this position and the certainly egyptian sources that are saying in the last few hours, that how much this position is absolutely clear nor release of the captives until there is an immediate cease fire. that is the starting position. but of course,
1:16 pm
these really have a staffing position as well, that there will be no c spot until all the captives are released. so it's up to the good tardies at the head of most sites and also the see i to try and bring all those elements together in some sort of deal that leads to an exchange of captives . and possibly even i, i 65 of some, at this stage it determinant land. alan. thank you. alan especially live for us in occupied easters of the us defense secretary is traveling to behind on costs are off the holding. totes in tel aviv on monday. lloyd austin's visit comes as concerns grow of israel's minutes reactions in gaza. austin reiterated washington's unwavering support for israel added security. but he also is why you need us to do more to protect civilians in gaza. and before leaving israel lloyd austin announced the formation of a multi nation naval task force to patrol the red sea backgrounds as humans who
1:17 pm
these continue attacking commercial vessels. passing through the crucial shipping route. little john b. p. use the latest company to hold shipments through those waters. these attacks are reckless, dangerous, and they 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. administer will meeting with federal ministers and a region and beyond to, to address this threat. well, let's talk more about this now with the hash. i'm, i bought a who his life was in doha. so how sion is the us defense secretary likely to get
1:18 pm
any kind of regional support for this new task force he's talking about. and he's looking for to see that support for the this explains why he would be having this meeting with the, with the ministers of defense from the region to try to have them on board. because the americans doing this done for them to be able to build a strong coalition against the hoses and the red sea. they need to have the backend of the region of cape powers, particularly the gcc. but i have to say who would have to convince them that this is something that could be contained and that the americans will do what it takes to prevent this from spinning out of control. i'm becoming more of a bolder regional confrontation. it just before october. the 7th, the, the, the solid is for example, what about to sign? a landmark deed with the here with the that was going to pay to put an end to more of
1:19 pm
a 9 years old. fighting between the 2 that was put on the back burner for the time being by the side is don't want to be involved in something that could for the back 5, especially with the health these things that if the coalition is the, is going to be full there was see it as a, as a danger of that for they have to do too much wide, to retaliate and hash and the, the, who these gave a clear message that they're not going to stop this any time soon. so it begs the question of what might happen next. this is a crucial moment for the head of these, you know, of the, how, the minutes the establishment in yet many of the areas controlled by the host. these warning that they would continue to target ships cruising through the but it meant up on the red sea, and they insist that doing face to protect people in garza, in particular. and for them to stop,
1:20 pm
these riders have to stop the warning cousins. they have to allow a into this trip a top, jose official behind the doctor said that was also a cd. i negotiate to said few hours ago that the attacks by the host is not an act of defiance. but that if the, this new coalition is adamant on launching attacks, then they would have to bear the consequences of what he described as a broad, the conflict in the region. but he said that the same time that the hair with these austin adamant on the need for these right is to stop the will at the ones the international community if they want. if they are the ones that hurt these to stop the attacks. and also i want to just add 11 thing here. the hope is going to fall into a $1014.00 and controlled those on the bottom of the country. they will. why is it safe to be an event proxy to the point where they didn't really have that massive support among predominantly send the countries in the,
1:21 pm
in this region. but the moment this thoughts, as long as you know those attacks in the red sea and the moment the spots of things that this is to protect the policy is to defend protest is that popularity has increased across the out of the muslim world. and i think they do understand that this is something that was just for the cement that position in the northern parts of the country. and they do understand that if the americans decide to retaliate as a target that positions india, but it could be a risk to move a passion. thank you. have somehow bought it. i am the one of the ripple effect of israel's war on gauze that is causing a maritime crisis in the red sea, one that may have major implications for the global economy and trade. the red sea is one of the world's most important shipping routes for oil and gas between asia and europe in the south. the bad but men deb, straits between africa and the arabian peninsula connects the red sea with the gulf
1:22 pm
of either 12 percent of the world's trade at 10 percent of global oil carried by ships goes through that straight. but the sewage canal connects the red sea with the mediterranean. it is the shortest shipping route between europe and asia. 15 percent of the world's maritime traffic passes through the sewage canal. since november, it run back to these have targeted vessels near by that meant the forcing major shipping and oil companies to suspend operations through the red sea and re re route the vessels. rerouted ships will have to make the much longer journey all the way down to the east coast of africa by the southern tip of the constant. so a ship traveling from single pool to rock to dam. johnny that would typically take around $26.00 days will now take $36.00 days to complete a strip using more fuel and increasing costs. blackman hello is an economic and political risk analyst and middle east director at the global council here in
1:23 pm
cottage. georgia is now in studio. thanks so much for being with us. so um, we just kind of mapped out there what, what, what does it stay to you in terms of the disruption to, to global trades at the dx with johnny did these ships are going to have to take now if they don't go through the red sea what kind of impact is this going to have on the global economy? the longer this goes on? well, the cascading impact of this is on, is on inflation. the world doesn't need an inflation shock at this time. central banks, major central banks have been cutting interest rates to come back to inflation and bring prices down for consumers. but this disruption in a major global trade archery. this was canals above, in month of effects, regular goods and effects energy effects. both oil, the main commodity, big oil and natural gas by them under this was gonna become increasingly important for natural gas, each region to european continent because of the what the nice ation of energy supplies by russia to europe. so your pin countries, the u. k. fronts if they are increasingly relying on energy shipments from the
1:24 pm
region to maintain their energy security. but we've seen because of these disruptions because of the, the tax by the, with these in these waters, your p natural gas prices jumped by 12 percent. you k natural gas prices jump by 10 percent and the price of oil also jump by 4 percent in the past 24 hours over concerns. you solve the major's oil majors vp of of the economics of norway and major shipping companies. the likes of coffee, lloyd merced, i'm a see pause discontinue the routes that go through the government the and through this was cut out of their alternative routes other than going through the whole us africa. so the main alternative that's being explored is that your cape town along the southern tip of the african continent, which has, which is less risky at this time and would be it wouldn't be an alternative to the
1:25 pm
shortest route between europe and asia, which is the country this was cut off, but that is the current uh, 2nd task that they can take. and so we, we heard from the us defense secretary, they're talking about putting together some kind of red sea, forced to, to take on the, the, the who it is. well, that's what sort of a difference, what is that likely to make that in terms of the, the economics it's, it's really needed. the u. s. has been intercepting the tax already and they have been mean, these attacks have been going on since 2019. they've only been intensified because of the uh, the wards um in 20. 19 the, uh, the 4th is took out momentarily. uh, 50 percent of saudis, oil production through drone and missed all the tax on the pick up pick oil facility. so they've grown increasingly sophisticated in the way they go around this. about these attacks, the us needs to corrales' allies of the defense minister, the defense secretary of the us, has convened a,
1:26 pm
a virtual meeting of 40 on the con content parts and discuss and maritime defense force. full task force, 153 to police and to defend these walters. and it's going to be crucial to give comforts to the shipping industry that their c fairs, their marina's, which are civilians, and don't have armed support with them on these ships. most of the time are going to have protection and going to be able to continue and what they're calling this operation. custodians or guardians of prosperity, which goes back to my point about inflation and keeping costs down, keeping insurance costs down for the consumer ultimately. up to now they've been talking about this being largely a defense force. in other words, we're reacting to who tax trying to repel to the missile attacks and so on. does it, does it need to be taking a step up and taking the, taking the attack to the who it is themselves in order to disrupt this completely. and this, is there a danger that this could cause further instability?
1:27 pm
i think all options are on the table. i think dick sullivan must security the advisor was saying that it'll be a time place of, of, of the us choosing. if they, they go down that path. i think at the moment they're, they're performing talks. and they've been using go betweens, like online to discuss with authorities to depress these attacks. but it's going to have to be a combination of, of beefing up the protection in the red c walters. and i talked to him about the, the escalation and there are no winners in this scenario. as escalation happens, as iran joins the free and starts attacking is really and us interest and the red sea and, and in israel and turn starts retaliating against draining infrastructure. then that will really blow up those things up for the global economy and increased oil prices and lead to a duel inflation shock and oil. sho, get to get your thoughts on this meant. hello. thank you very much. how palestinian
1:28 pm
refugee children in lebanon are being emotionally impact by any images from israel's war. and cause that going to a recent survey by the un children's funds. these children were already suffering from depression and anxiety because of poor living conditions. so, you know, called the reports from an educational institution where some are receiving help to co there's a strong sense of identity among palestinians who, who are in like these, who are born refugees and living on the, and the constant reminders of the reality of those living in casa, these children are sharing the pains of their brethren in the strip, some of whom have been writing their names on their bodies, so they can be identified if they are killed and is really a tax. it is, you still have that many are dying. many are injured and hospitals don't have the
1:29 pm
means to help them. they're not eating and drinking. the messages from here are to the children of garza, this one cents, hope others express the right to the palestinians to live in peace. the war has taken an emotional toll even on those watching from afar. a 13 year old lu, i says he feels helpless. mc mc must. that's all we got every day. a very set, my heart is dark. i can't describe this evening. i hope that this massacre stopped and then was full of health and how soon selim runs this educational institution. he shows us what children here write about. it's the voices from god. so i had the chef and me did anyone see my mother? my parents are body parts. we are not given the chance to grow up as much as they are leaving domestic goods. the here they've been struck about it. does he don't tv
1:30 pm
on social media? so we are trying to handle them to express themselves. they're using this space to try to lift their spirits and escape the realities around them. it's not just the war on gaza affecting these children. they have no little other than a life of displacement poverty and an uncertain future. and it is an uncertain time for palestinians who believe their state and them as a people are being wiped out. the mission isn't i don't want my children to be blind. that's why i let them know and i let them watch what's happening. these are my people being killed, and at the end we will return to gaza over 10000 children. and infants have so far been killed in gaza. thousands more have life changing injuries, but messages here are not just ones of solidarity. there is defiance. then there was
1:31 pm
a 0 but that we refugee camp northern oven on i thought i'd still ahead on i'd zeta paramedics in the occupied westbank say is really solid, is increasingly targeting them the hollow. we've got some subtle changes taking place and the weather across here. probably for the next couple of days, a looking area of high pressure, the clear skies down towards the south that's low to getting pushed further southwards and weakening in the progress as it does so we are going to see bands of a cloud and rain. these weather system for the ac china waterfront dragon away just around the northern parts of our high slipping further south is as we go through the next couple of days and then a well states of pretty wet weather 3. the remainder of tuesday coming down to northern parts of france, pushing across newland areas of germany,
1:32 pm
poland. i would suppose that eastern side of your central air is still generally try. but as we go on into what wed mistake at west, whether it will continue to push his way further south was city some snow wherever the out some snow to into at west side. all the russia attempt just on the rise in must go around 3 degrees celsius on the slide. i have a tools weston passed on a few showers, some wet and windy weather down across central pos, ultimate. it's right, and that's also affecting the finals all vouch area. i know them areas of libya over the next couple of days and very right whether to for time across students or that is likely to cause some flooding elsewhere across north africa. our west africa is fine. and dry as

1:35 pm
forced to protect ships on the red sea, and that's who devices have targeted commercial vessels protest. israel's, on gauze, or u. k. foreign secretary david cameron is meeting french farm is the catherine colona in past to discuss the situation in gaza. fonts has condemned is really secular violence in the occupied westbank assign it is regrettable and unacceptable front and u. k. a cooling for the release of is randy captives that could 10 that could into and lead to an immediate truce. and a c spot to country is also part of a multinational force to stop who the attacks in the red sea. when i speak now to the tasha butler who is in power sports. so natasha. first off. what did they say about gaza as well? the french and british foreign ministers who a meeting of the said the that meeting was actually all about. that's a coordinating between the 2 countries,
1:36 pm
more corporation and they spoke actually may need about ukraine. and they said that the 2 countries have to be more support ukraine and make sure the russian aggression didn't prevail. they also told about immigration in ways that they could try and cub illegal immigration when it came to call. so we and you heard from the, a french foreign minister, a, she started by saying that it was vital that all the host is being held in gauze are released. she said that both person and frauds wanted to make sure that all financial aid was going to be voted personal problems with fight or financial aid that was going to have mass that they would look a little ways to try and sanction her mice. and she also said that the 2 countries wants to work more closely on sending humanitarian age of how the students and goals are, that they were extremely aware and concerned by the situation and the price of
1:37 pm
civilians in gaza. and what did they say about the situation in the occupied westbank? what again it was i need the friendship, 4 minutes to catherine cologne, who spoke about that. she said that she would just have returned from the region. she had been and television also being in ramallah and she said she had spoken to palestinians in the west bank and heard about the suffering that was unacceptable when she called on israel to do more to stop that suffering. and she said the funds would look at possibly imposing sanctions on is riley settlers who carry out violence against palestinians in the west bank. and we know that something that other countries in the european union also considering including belgium and germany latasha. thank you. tasha butler in past one of the un security council is due to vote on a resolution pushing for an urgent and sustainable sci fi and gaza. but the wording of the text is expected to be watered down calling. it's
1:38 pm
a suspension of hostilities in order to get us support when it comes days off to the general assembly at boston, not inviting resolution for humanitarian to smooth. the 19000 people have been killed since israel began its war on garza in october, following how much attack let's bring in model one of the shot and now i just need a senior political analyst to speak to you again modeling. so let's talk 1st of all about this possible un security council resolutions. you expect that to go anywhere even. and it's worth a down form. is that talking about, you know, we don't know yet, and we don't know if it's going to make any difference even if it does. we've seen you on security council resolutions, especially what a down ones passing are a number of occasions in the past. and that doesn't mean anything to what goes on the ground, especially the way it comes to israel and its occupation. i think what we're seeing, uh, i'd say united nations is a bit of a desperation. the pass,
1:39 pm
a number of us with your shoes. i tell you in general, assembly the even the best that the un security council now they're trying to get something that is still what they're down, the, the verbal acrobatics. and the end of the day is not going to really mean much except on the level of diplomatic pressure. if the united states does not go along, there would be more diplomatic pressure on the united states. if it does go along, there will be more diplomatic pressure and is it right for the time being both israel and the united states, along with couple of that all ice in europe. they are pretty much isolated around the world after that famous you on general, some of those illusion with 153 countries working for 65 as i think now everything else is just a matter of putting these fucked lights on the united states and making sure that
1:40 pm
it somehow brings itself to be in line with the international community in order for the pressure one is 0 to build up. they had always been this fear off of the war and gaza escalating spilling out to elsewhere in the region. you know, we've seen the attacks between knows why the forces and hezbollah to the north, and there are these increasing attacks by the who these in the red sea. now talk of putting together a red sea force. so, you know, when people talk about this kind of spilling of originally, are we starting to see more of a manifestation of that? now we're still at the margins of it. it's effective, no doubt. we've heard the various analyses about how is i must deploy a good number of it's a military power and troops to the north hints putting a lot of burden on it. submitted that in the south. and of course, now we have the situation in the red sea,
1:41 pm
or where by disrupting the shipping lines is really embarrassing to the united states that's sent to aircraft carriers to them is delaney and, and, and it has a huge, huge, uh, never presence in the gulf but now is basically bucks staying behind at the national government. i'm not exactly sure what to be able to do about the shipping uh, disruption the idea of mounting a coalition in order to confront with these. that's not really taking off the way it should have taken off because of that in america's leverage in the region, considering this is an international issue about just an american issue and sort of thing. a lot of countries have a stake it. but so many partners, including in the region as well as in europe and elsewhere or hasn't been for the reason, mainly because america has proved to be not a credible partner in this region. and it's,
1:42 pm
it's double standard to support go see being boxed in behind. resort, and it's really leaving very little confidence in its lead to ship this pressure the among it's the additional partners in the gulf and elsewhere so that there's been a lot of difficulty in trying to mount a quite a should have. that's why the china is what it means to be serious. i think it's going to be costly moving forward. can i get your thoughts on this? as always? i just need to pull the clearness model. i'm sure to thank you. now the health care system in the gaza strip is on the verge of collapse. the few remaining hospital still functioning, are getting an overwhelming number of injured people every day. and now they are running out of medicine. this will set that has more is rarely affects have injured more than 50000 palestinians in the gaza strip. since the 7th of october, thousands are in desperate need of treatment and medication. but hospitals are over, around, pharmacies are running low on medicine supplies. the bombardment does not kill us.
1:43 pm
we will die from the option of medicine. for 3 days, i've not been able to find the medicine doctors had prescribed from my son. his body is getting below that as he has not been able to unit for days we have selected in gaza is paralyzed more than 2 types of hospitals. primary have kids clinics have shut down the over 300 was how the workers have been killed in discriminate is why the attacks doesn't say they were tortured for star of their being arrested and a term date. many palestinians believe they are forgotten by the outside world and are facing us a little that as a people. yeah, i mean them. i productive death sentence why the home will just preaching on human rights and even animal rights, the palestinians, and gods i left without the most basic of the treatment of our sick or our children who are listing in october to see me on the 9000 children are injured as far
1:44 pm
as warrant garza has to be able to speak to too many children. 8, including madison from anthony garza and i have been shot in the more than 2 months . we have not received a single payment of both of them, of sort of medication that alone pain killers or treatment for chronic diseases. these used to come through the border crossings, which have been close since the beginning of the war. children's medications for fever, seizures, and even antibiotics, and painted as our thoughts are the absence. because that sleep has been on the status each for more than 17 years. and it was over at hawk to find medication testing and say, now the war is made conduct far worse. this was that dash of the 0 of the occupied westbank city of janine has suffered some of the biggest is right in the army. right. since the war on garza started, i was thinking and building stuff and paramedics, a is really soldiers are increasingly targeting them as they tried to treat the
1:45 pm
wounded during the daily rate. it's all stress that has spoken to medics in the city. so brain. so she is struggling to recover after being shot by and he's really soldier. so she was one of the only 3 female paramedics working with the ambulance crews in the city of janine and the occupied westbank. this is the moment the bullet smashed through the envelope. she's back door and ripped into the back. now really missing her spine, which i see. and i was trying to help the injured and i felt i was safe because i was inside the ambulance. when the 1st bullet hit me, the pain was incredible. as i lost consciousness, all i could think about was my daughter's palestinian medic so endangered more than
1:46 pm
ever before since the beginning of the will do you want to film and slide this medic on 6 is way the soldiers who have blocked his pulse. these very all means stopping policy need emetics. we jingle transporting wounded and threatening them gunpoint threatening their lives as they tried to save the lives of others. but how much of the savvy still suffers pain from the bone injuries you suffer? 20 years ago when this ambulance, he was working, it was attacked by the israeli army by north carolina. so by the violations are worse now because they are more file. and since the war started, the soldiers force medics out of the ambulances and strip searched. i'm ordering them on their knees of gunpoint. they train their guns, laser sites on our trust as a direct threat. and they pushed the ambulances out of the area by using their military vehicles sob. as this ambulance is riddled with bullet holes, you don't get much clearer evidence than this. of these rarely armies targeting
1:47 pm
medical teams as it tries to get to treat the wounded. there's another hole here, there's a couple here, there's an exit hole here where a bullet is come right the way through the vehicle. and there's another one here on the back door. medical teams tell us that despite putting in repeated official complaints to the is rarely all means they have had 0 response. this isn't these really um, a bulldozer at the gates of one of jeanine's hospitals to say these, where do you all me surround all 3 of the cities. government hospitals going to a motion likely rage hunting members at the palestinian no resistance. remember that it's of october that this around and stopped the ambulance from reaching this or leaving the stuff to doctors from doing their jobs. the hospital has been hit by 2 guys during which staff and patients inside suffolk, guys,
1:48 pm
inflation. sabrin says she wants to go back to work with shrapnel is still stuck close to her spine when she needs another operation. but she says, she's good because the injury means you won't be able to save lives as well as she did before child stuff, but i'll just era, do you need the occupied westbank the, let's bring you some other well use. now a volcano has erupted in iceland following weeks of the quake activity, no casualties reported as authorities had evacuated, a nearby fishing town. and these are a live pictures you look. yeah. now volcanic eruptions common in iceland, but still very difficult to predict. expos, i'mma, which has more and this is the moment of ok, knowing southwest iceland corrupted, spilling lava, smoking, old directions. molten rock and columns of fire poured out of features in the
1:49 pm
ground. it followed weeks of earth quicker, tbd and mutual ologist had recorded more than 1000 tremors into 24 hours before the eruption. that's kind of mixed feelings. to be honest. so yeah, let's see how it goes and how long it lasts. and it's still amazing to see, but yeah, that's kind of a bittersweet feeling at the moment. the volcano is about 4 kilometers away from a gun. the vic, a fishing town in the south, fearing a significant interruption. last month, authorities issued evacuation orders for the $4000.00 residents and close the nearby geothermal spot. the meter, a logical office says the volcanic fusion always about 3.5 kilometers long. as long as gushing out at the rate of 100 to 200 cubic meters per 2nd,
1:50 pm
much more than in previous eruptions. the cubic international airport remains open. although there are 2 ways to both arriving and departing flights. back in 2010, a volcanic eruption caused major disruptions across europe. and aerospace police are in high alert and members of the public had been warned not to approach the area axles. i'm a reach out to 0 for jo. mccallski is a volt technologist at the university of hong kong as he joins us from that. thanks very much for being with us. so just focused festival about uh, what is it this causing this particular volcanic eruption and why it's happening now as well. i mean one else understand that all of iceland is composed of volcano, so it's not a huge surprise. the most active areas tend to be on uh, filter system that goes from the southwest charging are these. that's where the volcanic,
1:51 pm
where they to kind of by truck pulling apart and magma rises up from the upper mental. so it's not a huge surprise. and i just, this keeps happening periodically. and again, it shouldn't be a surprise. and just to just to come back to the, the sentiments expressed by the tool guide and access report. there it is. these are some stunning pictures and it is incredible site to behold, but it is going to cause and he's already causing a great deal of disruption. well, what i got, and it's really important, understand that with any kind of organism, the, the most disruptive, most dangerous part is related to the explosive activities. so when there's a lot of ash spewed out, that causes problems for airplanes, that causes problem for people on the ground as well. this particular type of eruption is your option. that's what we call a fuser fuser. that means a lot was pouring out and flowing over the ground. 3 is of course some ash, but it's not highly explosive,
1:52 pm
and that makes it less dangerous in general. and how does this particular volcano and what it's doing, compare compared with previous volcanic eruptions around the world, acute the, you know, about the study? well, in this particular case, it's a better option. so there are a lot of other examples or vision of options throughout. i funded and so this means that there are these pay crafts that are based, fully called joins into the ground and the level will always rise up through the path of least resistance. it comes up through those products and that's so it's one thing on a whole bedroom suite. so that means it's kind of a baby rupture and area. and um, but, well, by and large compared to some other examples in the past, less explosive. and so in that way, not a huge problem. what is it about iceland in particular that, that makes it prone to these volcanic eruptions? what well, what,
1:53 pm
what is it that is that is what is it about this that is unique to iceland? like a very special geologic context, it is uh, island or mile right in the middle of the atlantic ocean, where the tectonic plates are pulling apart. and because of that pulling apart, there's what we call buoyancy of the of the crust, where it is rising up to lots of medical activity. so the whole island is composed of volcanic materials and a very small correction. i'm going to set a venture, a rocks that every remedy from those all can explain. it's almost all volcanic material. it's just a unique setting. it's really special place and we're good to talk to joe mccallski . thanks so much for the was thanks. at least a 116 people have been killed in a novice quite in north west china. most of the debts were reported in guns to provence. thousands of emergency workers have been deployed to help with recovery

a platform to tackle what he says is the greatest goods to a time. then the call option is part of the paid people life. you can see the culture a but anyway. so when i talk about the culture, i know we feel like a naturally in my god, to the today's media circus. the focus is the current prime minister and the allegations of impropriety and land deals. an accusation that's been vigorously denied. a chain of evidence is long and complicated with much room to dispute. that the camera is a here for the man is the to it isn't unlikely. and some would say fluid. here he started his career as a message, paula read the perfect place. he says, to learn about corruption and what you have now. and the playboy and the pin, i am a politician, i am the media. i am what i am. a short period is
