4:06 pm
the ongoing constant bombardment across the gaza strip is this still. 2 a problem, and what do we're hoping for? a come to us to complete the station of all the uh, the i, the military activities where they are able to go through their life and feel how, with a sense of safety and security and, and protection for it, for them and their family members. but as of early hours of this morning and over night, it more people ended up the displays, the from the central part, namely the rest of the accounts in the central part of god, the rest, the res, refuge account. as well as in the surrounding area of the state where people were ordered, we're talking about a little over a 150000 people were told to evacuate and leave the area due dated. but that's the western side of the city as a newly designated and supposed to be a safe area. but so far, the dearest right, continue a not only pounding a the, the residential buildings,
4:07 pm
but more of the public facilities as well as the infrastructure. we're talking about the entrance of the rep is you can at the eastern side, completely a damage and destroy it to the point of making it very difficult for, for cars to drive. but through people who are evacuating, i'm becoming displacing the blocking for a long distance to get to the again, the supposedly a safe area for them. but from past experience, we know those safe areas are not safe. in fact, and there are a mountain of evidence to, to prove that these, these areas are not safe. but we've seen people who move to from the northern parts all the way to do hon units and drop by city and are just moments after their arrival here. do work. they were killed in the very residential homes, the shelter then. okay, thanks so much, honey. honey. recommend for us in reference, southern guys with them. i hate agencies have criticized the united nations

4:09 pm
of the amounts all by that we can bring into gaza. but we remained very concerned here, but once the id is in gaza, the ongoing conflict is preventing us from delivering that i. it is very difficult . we are restricted from accessing the population in a north by the is riley army. but the level of in security here means it's very difficult for us to access many of the population. and in fact, you know, at the thoughts where we should be protected, allied workers should be protected. they're at risk. we had one of our stuff who was hits, what by what we understand is tank for into a tractor he was operating at a dump sides, the other guy, and down on the boat a itself, the roof of border crossing. we've had 3 drawings drawn strikes and racing dies, so we need to be able to have safe and secure access for i'd work as the convoys
4:10 pm
that we have to access populations across garza, under our facilities, the schools that you run your stuff any say for today because of this resolution, latan will only tell what i can say is that, you know, we've had a 100 and i t of our installations in guys. many of them hosting people seeking safety. people's taking safety under a u. n. flag have been seats uh over 200 people have been killed in ice installations. but as the un security council was meeting the other nights at the same time, messages were being passed to the community in the middle areas of gaza, telling them to evacuate. this is telling more people to move, many of them who bring the slice before to an area that cannot provide them with shelter. so at the same time we, we were discussing things that the security council, the is riley army, was telling the more people to move and signaling a broadening of the, the offensive here and gaza. it's a natural, inspire hon. jeff,

a large scale of it to reach the people to reach the people the needs. you know, 9 out of 10 band a be bought in gas, the blocks have it or what the board are more than 2 days or for more than 20 balls . lord, oh us and the u. n. agencies add the award his organization on of the spirit of the diesel due to the lack of agreed with, walked out due to the board due to the government at. and so people who are not skilled divided strikes and will be with they wouldn't die because of the vision. so is the, did the lord and the, and the states that to go to for seats branch need assist white. yeah. so a lot organizations to have to have the works and to address the needs very well. here's where it took an entire week to get to that point the, the, what some of described as a much more down resolution to be passed. i mean, is the resolution actually going to change anything on the ground as far as you can
4:14 pm
tell in terms of getting i to the people who are desperately native. it is a better solution is not accompanied with incomplete action of imposing on c spy and still dumping it what it means, nothing. it, the timing would continue or the vision with effect and many to the as many and many women more lives will be lost if it, there is no co creek action. and especially if students play out, i'm still on being out there and ensuring student access to him when he did he, on a organization of the he went to tell you how to get organized as a then would it be a vista video. so when you nothing for the be what's the dash, it'd be one of like, i think told you they need. so the only thing they need is to be sworn organization need a ceasefire to move and to assist the needs and to deliver the needs to many parts of gather. if we talk about the north and back to gather they, are they face
4:15 pm
a huge risk of them in a huge i a, the, the, the buses on the streets as people come up. buddy, the buzz is on the streets of this world of environment. the new really didn't get back to you and to solve people and you to be out there to add to, to get back to been likes to stop fish. oh, but come that he wouldn't tell me any crisis that they fixed. okay. thank you so much for him. we really do appreciate your time from jeffery from action idea. thank you. so much of guys are now lies in ruins. following continuous is riley bowman, and occupation buys where the ground forces ports of bodies laying in the straits buildings destroyed. and bulldozed houses, there is no cell sherry for poets from the tell us out the neighborhood north of the valley of refugee can in the morning that his report contains up saving say that there was a few months to go to the doctor who now we are in the tells us the name of the north and that you're finding
4:16 pm
a refugee camp that it was on the seas be imposed by these radio occupation forces for more than 20 days off. yeah, i'll call them and i assure you me, oh no sir. i know you all and when we came here we saw the bodies of thousands of people i showed buys, ready for lag in the street. oh, i don't understand how you doing. uh, i thought i should hold the notes. i see this guy left the destruction close by the is really bombarded. we bought a heavy a month because capella, sidney and medical team and haven't managed to reach miss area because of the ceo to the neighborhood is totally destroyed. of this things are very difficult to take and as you can see, the bodies of many dead people lying everywhere. now the model, paula had the mendez schools around the indonesian hospital was that heavily bombarded? i mean, how does mccann a how we looked at it yet, and it is really minute truth. vehicles have tried to advance from these stories to
4:17 pm
was that your body a refugee camp? palmer did the hassle should be chem and who know they started from the streets near the indonesian hospital to was the to allows us a neighborhood coming to them a how is the month to put the azako on the model, paula: and as the show and streets and buildings, an infrastructure only being destroyed, of the neighborhood is no longer habitable because of the mass of destruction, the amount of national and that you had done in almost fisher. i would have the most fish from now moving in the direction of the allows the hospital, which has been on the siege for more than 10 days. i left it up on the, on with the or has he, i'm with cisco who know the general manager and then some of the medical stuff is interested, money, occupation forces will help them with special i would the awesome nor to stop at that. a theme pose the siege for 18 days. no one was allowed to go anywhere. if
4:18 pm
someone tried to move on to shut them immediately, the old, the old people inch, i mean 20 and 40 to go out the house and make it in groups of 20 out of. and so now the florida actually and actually these are the forces to go with the force good as well as dr. how are your follow? should have 10 a got cut off with dish ro i for the mother of danielle. the next day they came again with the doctor, how much money, and they took some administrative people. then they took those above the age of 16 addressed only their underwear, and they took about $8.00 to $6.00 people. and i'm not going to get to the following. it with the modern man as inquiry. why not rejoice really on how game you and destroyed all the buildings. you will leave me out the hospital and these 2 ladies were on their way to the hospital to deliver the baby. zillow. john, come on level folder. uh broke up, i gotta jump off of the house, but the one of them was killed,
4:19 pm
a fellow and his body is under the rubble. so these really bulldozers killed them all. why come on just sit down. let me say how um it is come on. because there are other pregnant women in this area, what killed the, to the pregnant women without mercy, all of the general fireball. some of them, not all in what you didn't get the one who. uh, i'm not sure i went to a few months, but the thought, but i don't know how sort of this is just seen in the tellos at the neighborhood. doctor has been under sage for more than 20 days. all of them all see joshua, lot destruction and dead bodies in the streets. as the medical teams have not yet been allowed to collect some unnecessary if does he all smell it as a to get his spring in the shower? once again, l g 0, senior political n, listen. but when just looking at the united nations security council resolution that was passed, it was after weeks and weeks of ren ping international pressure. really coming down
4:20 pm
on the americans as well as israel to actually do something. all they put forward was this resolution. what will it take to get a 65? do you think at this point in time? america, a christmas miracle. i don't think it's possible. i think the united states and is there a demons on continuing the war until they reach the objective. namely, the defeat of ham, us, whatever they define the defeat of how much to be fine. it could be a number to finish and one and who they think everything that bears them have mice, including the families, with how much members their arms administration, their supporters and so on. it could also be blowing every single tunnel and building and guys, i'm kidding, hold a minute. then send the fighters as well as all the latest by defense, how you define it. but for the time being, what we have is that a solution that is strictly humanitarian quote unquote,
4:21 pm
that distance itself from anything that resembles a ceasefire. in fact, this is sort of and by sci fi, it sort of solution that basically bless is the control range of the war. now why is this important? because you cannot have really a humanitarian assistance without ending the water, as every single international organization, human at their organizations and others has told us the thing is, this is what that might cause, that quite brilliant, right? as well as that partners, like the secret, the console. they said we, we, we need, we insist on project safe, un hender, expended humanitarian aid. sounds good, right? this. and then they said we would interest is read with that too. i have to say yes, yes, this is the definition of in testing the one with the hidden house. this is the definition of interesting
4:22 pm
a war longer with the civilians. and that's exactly what's going to unravel the days to come. these are, it has the actually last word on how any age would get to the 70 is which means we are back to point 0. yeah. but does it go a step beyond that? because uh, the new york times has done a deeps investigation that is found as well as routinely used. some of his biggest and most destructive problems is $900.00 killer grand palms and areas that they had deemed safe funds for civilians to go uh and funds protection. so i mean it's, it's, it goes beyond that for the united states, doesn't this? absolutely, absolutely. and do you not such a patient every junction have supported israel is narrative, right? from the beginning we address 0. i remember that you know, there by day because we've been here, right. which said there are no safe places in causal. we've reported on the roof. we've reported on news wednesdays, right, is at that time said, go ahead,
4:23 pm
it's going to be safe and then it was fun. but when we reported that, you know, when the new york times reports us and it becomes important, in fact, we've been saying that. so out and the by the administration has been following in the footsteps and on the sound bites and appreciates on the lives of these very limited to i just for the patient is really paper hard as a says what i'll just see here. all will just 0 and the leftists then is read, says that it's the pressing news. but when the is really spokes person says that the new york times and the washington post, it repeats it. it's good to listen to. right. but in the fact we've been reporting good on some, some few in his red had been reporting good. unfortunately, we haven't had a, you know, objective international observers or journalists with access to guys that because i wouldn't let them is the only and allow embedded journalist where they didn't.
4:24 pm
gotcha. so for the time being what we have, yes. no, no, no, not continue. so for that i be what we have is the united states supports is that even in this resolution? now, this is the reason just to be completely fair, right? why does is there a then continues to force that distribution? because investigation, there are few passages, for example, that they ask that we need to see that there's have been a spin you in fine is really democratic states, side by side. this is not to the like, inclusive, but this is part of the circle of american vision, right? as of tomorrow, every single step in this resolution is going to need a murder can have. why? because there. so it's going to object to every bit. and every step moving forward . so america has designed better solution, whereby it's going to to main center stage for days, weeks, months, perhaps used to come. because whatever we're going to need to implement is what it's going to say. no, america is going to be the arbitrage or of anything moving forward and taking that, i mean, in that sense, you know,
4:25 pm
center fold to the movement and that's what the united states once it's not about human rights, it's not a bust. humanitarian aid, it's about america staying center stage, having control. absolutely. thanks. so what, thanks so much melanie. we really appreciate a thank if or a finding is continuing between is ready forces and has a lot in southern living on on friday has black hair without the 5 attacks on is rarely military positions targeting barracks and gatherings of israeli soldiers in the vicinity. is there any forces attacks positions, including roads along the border and conducted rides, the towns along the come valley river? well for more than the spinet smith is in tell of even, can you just give us the latest on these attacks? and is this likely to say and even grace escalation as well as a hit targets in 711 on after it says and responds,
4:26 pm
it says 2 strikes in israel over night. these rattle a splost, another soldier that's 10 killed since october the 8th. but what's been happening released finally typical limit increase exchanges of 5 between the 2 sides, but not allowance conflict, both sides. so they want to avoid all out conflict as ball that says he's going to keep targeting israel until the cause of war and both sides saying they want to avoid all conflict. the risk is of an accident where a large number of people civilians are killed and won't miss all strike. i'm not cold accidentally launch an all out war awhile for israel. the gospel is, of course the primary focus. what's happening on the board with 11 on is still alive, issue there are some 80000 is riley's displace from that and they want to go home and israel wants them to be able to go home. and it's rather sad while he's looking for a diplomatic solution to what's happening,
4:27 pm
that it's not oppose the idea or militarily trying to push has bullet further back into 11 on to stop hitting. those is riley targets and these are all size is a diplomatic efforts. don't work, then it will do that. it's in there, a whole c, d, a is rarely politicians who set they want to preemptively strike as ball out of attempted to preemptively strike it because they believe the quality and quantity of a awesome with weapons as well as gold is going to be. busy and what is well considered as accepted. okay, thanks so much for that. then it will be keeping a close eye on tension. looked at both of us been at smith for us in television. or there's plenty more aid here on this. these out including christmas is cancelled and basically him in the show of solidarity with palestinian suffering under is ready bomb 5 minutes of gaza, the thought provoking on. but the patient doesn't have time to wait for the extremely unfortunate script. there are no quick wins and eventually some odd hitting
4:28 pm
interviews. do you feel like america is less than that these days or is it just a different full? i think that democracy in the process basically entities do you feel that the fraction is already starting the g 7 in the us on one side, china and the brakes on the other? i think there is a huge piece of that to happen to the story on talk to how does era in a world where the news never ends. understanding what's behind the headlines is more important than ever. it takes listening to the people behind the news and to the journalists reporting their stories, accept intimacy that makes every international story local at heart. i'm only can be the host of the take a daily news podcast powered by the local reporting of elders here. find us where ever you get your pod cast. a
4:29 pm
news . the you're watching, you'll just hear a reminder of our top story is the south, the bombing of allegories, refugee camp and central gaza engine, probably a refugee camp. the northern gaza is reported to have killed dozens of people, including children. the un security council has adopted a resolution demanding is roland from us and able to safe delivery of more humanitarian aid to gaza. but agency side of the situation on the crown wouldn't be improved without a safe spot. and it's ready, for instance, if right of the columbia refugee camp in the north of occupied east jerusalem. several palestinian, you'd swear a risk before? is there any troops with true? at least 20 palestinians, including children,
4:30 pm
have been killed and is rarely strikes and the seraph. for if you g camping central garza buried under russell. several of those killed had evacuated their homes in north and gaza to escape as well as bombardments and could already has this report in a warning to a few as it contains upsetting scenes. i'm currently handing on the rubble of the house of the journalist. how much time in the service refugee camp? the scene is horrific here to our bodies. thus our city trusts. under the rubble achilles. 20 palestinians have been killed in 4 are still under the rubble including children. and this house was had at least 18 palestinians that were internally displaced and see this 3 story building as a refuge after they were called to evacuate from the another. in parts of the gaza
4:31 pm
strip. let's walk. people are trying to remove their bodies from under the rebels where they're trapped under here, sorry for the image. it's very hard and unsolved. but unfortunately these people do not have any equipment. they're thinking with their own bare hands trying to remove these bodies that are trapped under durable, according to the family. there are activities for stairs dropped under the robot and they have been trying to help them and to remove them. since yesterday, as you see, as they are trying to remove them from under the rebels, the ceiling, besides, the above us is partially damaged. here, people were looking for winter clothes and for blankets. they were trying to take
4:32 pm
the remains of what's left of this house, the the people who live here were taking their close their blankets because the weather is very winter and they're homeless. learn right now. this is the see that we have been with using since the 1st day of the war on cause. and the, the air strikes continue every single day, people in this area and surrounding this area. and then my gods and in the state off in other areas in the gaza strip, have been called to evacuate. what people are telling us that they don't have any place to evacuate, and there is no place safe. this isn't the study as a 0. say it out there for g come cause a pods time us has accused to rhonda being involved in the tax on commercial ships carried out by humans who receive revel. group washington says around is providing drones, missiles and tactical intelligence to the group. that is
4:33 pm
a tag several ships in recent days. the button administration recently announced a naval coalition, but for more on this result. so that joins us from jupiter and russell around, supremely, that has spoken out against the us over the last few hours. can you explain what he said, and was there any reaction at all to the climb that around his behind these whose he attacks the supreme leader or the someone a has completely ignore that decision is coming from the us. and he hasn't mentioned that at all. however, previously you have seen several of you run into officials including the fort administer saying, i mean up to my yeah, i'm said that you're on has nothing to do with that tax interaction. i guess the ships that are passing through the seeds and the said, these are the actors themselves on the hall. so you don't have nothing to do. why transmission security skills person i had just recently said that they have no reason to believe that rodney is trying to dissuade who is useful. i'm the reckless
4:34 pm
behaviors and they said that she said, the believe you run is deeply involved in planning these attacks on the, on the don't the shifts in the, in the right see, but they have not given any substantial evidence back in these accusations. so later we have seen an article on what's the own. uh, what's a journal called the site team at western regional source. seeing that you one that has the provide the real time, any type of gems weaponry including the drones and use as to what use that has been used in the red sea. and they said that these do not have the rate of technology without running assistance. they will not be able to target the ships but for it. but for these on the other hand, the saying that they have the warning patches facilities over the years of aggression against them. so as of now we have seen serious acquisitions, but very little evidence backing up isn't musicians in some countries don't want to
4:35 pm
be named as part of this coalition has been set up by the united states. we have any idea who is committed and what state have committed at this stage of the well actually as of now, it has been quite confusing that quote, 33 messages aren't being sent out by the companies that were named to be the part of the is it's a national naval cooperation, seen the rad seats as of now. so greece and you can confirm that they are going to be part of that. however, at which extent we still do not know yet, well, the other hand for all say, is that the differential, i mean this with defense forces are going to only back on the french command. utility is saying that they use forces are going to, on the sense of the cause coming from the, the, the type of ship owners them for the end. and spain is saying that it's really on the act on the nature. let me just for the, for the coordinated by the european union, but they have not confirmed that they're going to be part of these international
4:36 pm
question. and also some of the other countries in the region that even reject to the public name due to the forensic assessed of it. and so as of now we haven't seen any additional force arriving to the region. and we can see that the yes is really trying hard to pushing hard to form these international middle time coordination here. but the countries are quite reluctant to be a part of that sense. that hasn't been any serious commitments yet. ok, thanks so much for that to update this original stood out for us into beauty. is basically him is worth it by christians as the best place of jesus christ. this time of year, the town is usually packed with thousands of foreign terrorists. but the war on gods and means most of staying away from the city of business owners who rely on income during the christmas season. so the suffering more than if a child strengthens reports from basically palestinian would call has been working at this family run business in bethlehem for almost
4:37 pm
a 150 years. but this christmas war on gulls and subsequent increase of these really military rates across the occupied west bank as post tourists to stay away. who's saying how much is being called in christian figurines. like this one for more than 3 decades. depends on his job based family of 6 months. the, this work is in my blog. i love it, and i love my workplace and my fellow workers, the situation is terrible everywhere. the boss is trying to help us to work by any means, but it's hard for him when business is so bad, rumsey, zachary is the full generation to run the business. pictures of his great grandfather coughing would hang on. the wall. had of it's cool, saw the situation in bathroom, it's hard because 80 percent of the economy here depends on tourism. and we're trying to keep the workshop running for the workers because they all have responsibilities. and this is all i know the truth is going to come here as long as
4:38 pm
