[000:00:00;00] so the cleaning for their lives, thousands of palestinians have been killed over the past 24 hours in con means. as israel expands its ground, defense affect the color that are on the stars you pay and this is all to 0 like from don't will. so coming hundreds of thousands are living with the threat of starvation and cost

screwed supplies and shooting flour and rice funding. now for votes, the israel is proposing a 2 month pause and fighting and exchange for the release of old captains being held in gauze. and the us and its allies conducted fresh stripes on from c positions in yemen, focusing underground storage. oh, israel is continuing its heavy bombardment of the southern parts of the gaza strip . at least 66 people have been killed in con eunice, just over the past 24 hours alone. and israel's ground operation is also expanding that force in even more palestinians to free for the south to rafa. is really forces targeting hospitals, ambulances in schools, in a city with thousands of civilians all sheltering. is there any troops that will say locked in intense bottles with palestinian sizes in northern garza,

that near jamalia? it's tanks and troops present in all the areas that you're seeing that highlighted in red, but it's in the north. on the south of casa, tara couple of the reports now from the ground for us. from rafa and southern casa, as an officer hospital is the only place that people wanted to have a chance to sit by what's close to, to, to the collapse is really, is increasing its attack on yours. placing the hospital at the center of the battle was the latest i'm now since yesterday night with the expansion of ground operation and con eunice, we received a lot of injured. there's no space for that would be a good thing. i work in the intensive care unit, there's only 4 beds there and i was treating 10 to 11 injured and i was jumping over beds just to check on that. there's barely any staff left. the resources are below 0 equipment below 0. there's nothing. i haven't slept for 30 hours, so kind of city and doctors treat conflicts,

frozen the ones on the floor. so flores with what little supplies they have. the people have killed is very rates close to the hospitals is very only for this save . so we'll start the will on unice has been on the he's the intent for more than a month, attacked by usability tax. and all, it's very many people who flipped here have don't, and much of the city has been slots. and i've talked quite loud. i'm see thousands of palestinians on the news again, seeking safety service. so as it says outside of, hey let in. this is a 7th time i get displaced, or maybe even more, it's torture, torture, torture pianos, laptop, lanham in jam. we hardly made it out of the university under the showing. we didn't expect the time, so the universities came. we almost didn't make it out

a life. every day i see children die. many of my friends died last night at oxford university. the destination, roughly the city is already over population and resources to show that then we really stretched to the limits out of space to live shrinking by the hour. well, no. where do we go? where this is the 17th time i've been displaced, where should i go? when should i go to the left off? roughly just one straight? what do they want from us? they want us to be 2400000 in an area that does not exceed 200 meters. is really troops advances on con you. it is a forcing thousands to evacuate here to rough off. do so we'll have a really made to look old basic necessities from medicine to will to suit the came here say king safety bought the used by that tax continue here as well. targeted by zoom out just a rough,

rough off in suffering cost. the police to 3 is really solid as have been killed and 15 others wounded in the last 24 hours as the fighting centers. around con eunice and southern garza, these rarely ami says 3 of those wounded are in critical condition, the injured wear and lifted amid an exchange of fire with palestinian groups. at least a 198 as ready troops, health and kills that during combat in gaza. meanwhile, the video has a match of the palestinian group. the all codes brigades, proposing the targeting is ready forces at the res comp, that's in central garza, the footage then, as you see, that shows and is rarely had a call to approaching the scene of that fighting as well is said to be proposing. now, a 2 month pause in fighting for the release of all captives being held in casa, that's according to a report by actual switch, says the deal has been presented to him off at 3 mediations. now, this proposal would be made up of several phases. medias is from capital in egypt

have been watching for weeks to try to reach a deal between is riling, hold off while that speak to him to sell her. she joins us now from occupied easter eastern under there's obviously nothing official here. what do we know about the details of this proposal? potentially on the table of the wall? nothing is, is official. these reports are also within is really media saying that these really is have put forth a proposal that could see up to a 2 month long pause in the fighting. but they are stipulating that this in no way indicates an end to the war. they're also saying that they would like to see the release of all of the captives inside of gaza. these really s army is estimating. there are around a $136.00 still being held there. it would be those who are alive and also the bodies of those who are dead. it would be in multiple stages. the 1st stage would be the release of men and women over the age of 60 and any individual who is an

urgent need of medical care. the 2nd stage would say female soldiers and men under the age of 60 who are not is really soldiers. and the 3rd phase would be male is rarely soldiers. now these really is have reportedly offered to release a large number of palestinian prisoners, though they are also indicating that you will not release all of the palestinian prisoners. but as the stages within the deal go on, they're saying that the number of prisoners will be higher. so for example, the number of palestinian prisoners to be released for one is really male soldiers would be much higher than perhaps an elderly woman. but remember what her mouse has been saying, but they're not going to be entertaining, any sort of deals that involve captive releases until there is a total stop to the aggression on gaza. they want a total and to the wars something these really is have said they're simply not willing to do these really prime minister has said repeatedly that military pressure is the only way to bring back the captives. now several is really

officials who spoken autonomously said that they are cautiously optimistic within the next couple of days hoping to get some sort of answer from us. but the reports are indicating that the war cabinet submitted this proposal around 10 days ago. so there's still a lot of information that needs to be confirmed, but these really prime minister didn't meet with family members of those being held captive inside of gaza and told them these really is have put forth a proposal. but he did not elaborate on details or continue watching very closely, and it helped us on that for us with the latest parties choice and thank you hon. oh, as there is mediation talks, continue, a senior, i'm asked. data has criticized as really prime minister benjamin netanyahu is rejection of the palestinian stage. and on made those comments as the us says, there is still a support for a 2 state solution. well, hosted on the city of hutton, i met a kia the i see you, ma'am. i think i mentioned the actions,

especially when the united states administration and presidential by then sending messages to assuring those people in hospital wage. i don't want it to come solutions, old normalization of proposals with this, and that's the entity by i my court what the by didn't, has just said that nothing the yahoo doesn't object to own existing solution. is it on the 2 state solution followed the by and it's in the yeah, whose office few are what is the later rejecting the statements by biting brittany to read the diction off establishing companies in the state. the meanwhile, food supplies are rapidly running out and gaza. most areas have already run out of flowed, and you mounted hearing walk is say the sketch, rice that's available will also soon be to police. it came up with reports from

russell as they have been killing for hours in the hold of receiving food handouts but aid workers save menu. these children will leave with empty stomach. and i regret to say we are on the verge of a salmon real family. that's right, is almost out of talking about us. it is the 2nd most basic food item to flower. and if we run lots of rice will be consumed. the family of this is the harsh realities. nothing. i'm up to you and say everyone in gauze is hungry with 40 percent of the strips. 2.3000000 population at risk of famine. humanitarian agencies say not enough. 8 is arriving. one is well, bombs, and block a this give me, i think the most of the quantities of food supply is available in the market. these days are very scammed because normally food items have been delivered into northern causes, trip for more than 70 days. dryscal flour, in addition,

and the price of price of the ticket has increased 3 for letting in the most difficult pockets for palestinians heroines, the situation is getting more desperate every day. unless you will do what matters most for our child is to eat what they want to eat more than 23 or 4 times a day because they play outside all day and come back hungry. this is the situation is difficult, extremely difficult. a famine overdone drugs more than a 25000 palestinians have been killed in israel and one long war ongoing. there are no signs of the suffering will in any time soon. or most of the people in garza have been displaced several times since early october and now they have little to eat. so and nowhere else left to go any more, i'll just eat a bite. but as you have the aid agencies, a warning of an increasing risk of salmon and gaza, with more than 90 percent of the population now deemed to be at least at

a crisis level. now it's a 3rd phase of the i. p. c's global food and security scale with phase 5. also 5 is found on that level is already being experienced by quarter of the population in northern garza and the others that also fall into emergency or crisis levels of food and security. 15 percent of in time you just based people in gaza already and found them nearly hoffa estimated to be experiencing emergency levels of hunger, huge amounts in the south. a 15 percent of people are living in stress levels of food and security. that's the 2nd phase on the scale. the rest are experiencing crisis, emergency or funding levels of hunger. well that spring can michael factory, he's the human special russell to on the right to food and a professor of rule at oregon university. he joins us now from eugene in oregon. michael, this was found and it's always a technical time. it has very specific connotations. so a certain proportion of children, for instance,

need to be dying in order for it to be used. we know that is now happening in parts of gauze and but i wonder if, if a technical threshold like this can be a bit of a distraction. i mean, this has a grade in scale, like the level of starvation below 5 and a scale profound taking this test, you know, i think you're quite right in terms of, of course there's a technical definition that measures the number of people effected about one and it looks for one out of 3 children being acutely malnourished. but ultimately, what simon means is an a significant increase of rate of people dying from hunger and malnutrition. and the challenge is how do you measure that in the midst of a war? yeah, so what we're hearing is yes, there's a significant risk of simon, but now i'm wondering, are we actually in assignment it's unclear. so what is clear is that all children under the age of 5 and garza so that's $335.00 children are not getting enough nutrition. that means they're all at the risk of permanent physical and cognitive

impairment. what doctors call stunting their future is at stake. michael, i want to talk about the speed and the scale of this. we keep hearing what unprecedented but i wonder if you can help us put this in context, surfing findings declared in places like somalia. yeah. and then if you, if you haven't got a lot of publicity, how does this compact? right, and i'm always careful not to compare different simons, every catastrophe and every atrocity is its own, has its own dynamic. what's, what's your take about this one has been to speed and how complete. we've never seen 2200000 civilians made to go hungry within weeks. so we've never seen this degree of hunger used as a weapon so quickly and so completely i ever, michael you, you said that's being used as a weapon. so the patent of it is really a tax. the barring of food aid in your mind. that tells us about the intent to,

to will exactly, to understand how does this happen so quickly? it doesn't happen by chance. starvation, wherever it happens is always the result of political choices. and this is the same case here. so 1st, israel declared a siege on october 9th and immediately and pin implemented a siege now, which meant they blocked off food, water, fuel, and medicine to civilians. now we're seeing a trickle of humanitarian relief make its way in. but what we're hearing from you in agencies is that you're going to turn release is not reaching a boast of garza so it's not enough. so the current siege is one cause, but this is also an ongoing problem. there was a 16 year blockade before this, so even before the war, off of people and gaza were put in secure and 80 percent depended on a so already yes, rule made the situation precarious through a through a blockade, then it imposes a siege during the war then it destroys civilian infrastructure,

so israel has destroyed hospitals, homes, roads, making this everyday life impossible. and finally, what i'm receiving reports is the destruction of the system itself. meaning israel is destroyed approximately 22 percent of agricultural land. it's destroyed 70 percent of fishing boats and it's denied fishers access to the seat. so even if a god, a guy since want it to feed themselves, israel's destroying their fruit system. so you put all of these combined. this is why we were seen this risk of time and happens so quickly. michael, it from what you were saying. it sounds like you believe that this is systematic. we've also seen the destruction of phones and attacks on farm is in the occupied westbank. what in your mind is israel is aim here. ok. i mean there are declared a has been to push out palestinians out of gaza. they've said as much in black and white terms. they've use dehumanizing language. they've called the pulse to mean

people animals and they've targeted civilian simply because there's palestinian. um so and their aim is again from what we keep hearing and black and white terms. this is not reading between the lines lines. it sounds like 2 or occupied goes or even more. and to push out the palestinians as much as possible. michael, you all the you and special ra, put to on the right to food. what can you and do right now other than us israel, to let more food in i mean, to formal channels. we've seen everything we've seen the security council. we've seen the secretary general. we've seen the general assembly, we've yet to hear from the human rights council before we turn to the you and i think people on the streets have the answer. millions of people are marching in the streets, demanding the enter, the war and immediate humanitarian relief. it's now time for the government to work together through the u. n. and to put real pressure on israel, it's allies have done nothing to prevent this,

this risk of famine and this risk of genocide. so now it's time for people to continue pressuring their governments and for governments to economically pressure israel to diplomatically pressure israel and politically, pressure israel to stop um, desponding. we've spoken a lot here, michael. about intent, as many agencies have pointed out, the use of starvation as a weapon of what is a will crime. so what sort of accountability cannot be, will there be i to call it a war crime in legal terms. what that means is to we can try and hold individuals accountable through international criminal courts through international court of justice to national courts. the problem of focusing on international laws of war is it's often after the fact after the fighting ends and it goes up to individuals. and it still allows the laws of war still allow for killing of people. and israel will make the argument that it is out of military necessity,

that it is starving people a. and that's a legal argument. it's allowed to make. now time will tell whether that is factually true or not. um, but i think what's actually more important to frame it back as a human rights concern. mm hm. there's a risk of genocide we've seen jet aside actually unfolding. and there's no exception to genocide. there's no exception to targeting and killing palestinians simply because they're polished than you, michael factory that the you and special replica on the rights of food. thank you so much for joining us on out to 0. so thank you very much. all the us and you came in at trees, meanwhile, have been conducting fresh air strikes, targeting, who's the weapons sites in yemen. us central c'mon says h locations where his including a base north of the capital. so no us defense officials have told out a 0 that the combination of miss solid as strikes hit to the drones miss styles as well as an underground weapon store. how does your customer has went out from

washington dc? the american and british fighters launched munitions toward a targets within whose they controlled young men on monday or us senior defense official said the strikes were successful, hitting an underground weapon storage facility and degrading the who feasibility to launch more red c attacks. so the damage assessment is not yet final. it's unclear whether there were casualties on the ground in game in the us. officials said these were precision guided missiles and the targets were deemed to be of no risk to civilians, australia by rain, canada, and another lens. also assisted in the strikes in the what capacity remains unclear, or u. s. military official stress that this operation was not part of the multinational coalition that has been patrolling the red sea in an effort to safeguard maritime trade. he also stressed that monday strike is not a change in approach from the us, but rather part of an ongoing effort to stop the who's the attacks while attempting

to avoid escalation. heidi jo castro, alger 0, washington. i'm still ahead here on our policy and children and central cause that creates a make shift, some entry off the finding the parties of their loved ones kills. and it's really at the the so that the residual optic ever sits over the plane. the states of the us more or less here is coming up against what's not incoming warmer air from the gulf? no, i have some the to those come together. you have to get rain last night. it will freezing . right? if you're ready and lucky, which is probably the case in illinois, maybe i work for time and then started proper folder, trusted right. thanks. and no new england was writing to be replacing it in texas

and also on the west coast to be seen ready and coming through california. residual cheryl still lucky and i think during tuesday on the cold or cool breeze has been blowing across the bahamas is still fairly strong. fairly heavy. rain will be a manifestation over time peninsula and on the goals side, it's still fairly cool in mexico, on the western side, where it's being hot showers, take the place on the pacific coast in south america. charles could be anywhere in the amazon basin. the concentration there appears to be said the size of the past, about getting a shower to here. rios also looking written for most or present least looking what an associate down to about $32.00 degrees for the real heat to science so that you know option. tina in particular, whereby your blanket next couple of days could approach 40 degrees. the hard hitting intervenes as

a un ambassador position given to you by or does have both. you've described that is better than is better than any thoughts providing ons. my question to you. all that good cooks, i think, is the most difficult press that i've had to answer facing realities, usb to in the security council. this is something they just don't think look is different on the x of to hear the story on told to how does era the the the welcome back to watching out a 0 uninstalled you'd pay here. and uh huh. let's remind you about top stories is rarely continuing its bombardment of the southern associates, con. doctor said,

be 66 people have been killed that just in the past 24 hours, forcing people to flee. even the threat of starvation is, remains of hundreds of thousands of people in golf on which food supplies running out most areas of already run out of slots. do you monetary and walk and save a limited amount of rice available soup student each piece is relevant. so to be proposing a 2 month pause in fighting for the release of captives being held in gaza, that's according to a report by axial switch says the deal has been presented to him. us through media was really forces have stormed several towns and the officer pied west bank troops, 5 to i guess and compass case or the civilian call. east of hebron in the vis village of 99. they've also resulted protestant in youths to the north of hebron and the town of household at least one pass. and it was also injured by soldiers, inmate federal,

as well in the united states officials of holding for an immediate investigation and to the fatal shooting of traffic as jock in the occupied west bank. the 17 year old palestinian american was finishing high school with ponds to study business at university in his home state of louisiana. possibly call haven reports. there are growing calls for an immediate investigation to the murder of to seek a young. he's the 17 year old american of palestinian descent, who was shot and killed in the occupied west bank. i spoke to his uncle, he describes him as respectful and happy and very polite. and he said he was going to have a picnic with some friends with all of a sudden, shots rang out. we have been able to get some more information about this search. certainly a tragic killing by all accounts that we've been able to glean so far. our deepest condolences go to the family. i was 17 years old, just a teenager, so of our thoughts and prayers certainly are with the family and we call on israel to conduct

a full thorough transparent investigation into his killing. it's unclear who fired the shot, whether it was a soldier or a settler. now the family says they would like to see an investigation. they'd like to see account ability. but they said, we've heard that before. it just doesn't seem to have had to go home. al jazeera, washington, palestinian children and central goals that have created a makeshift symmetry of to finding the bodies of their loved ones. rights groups say extreme for mass experiences for young palestinians are becoming common place and even then to cope with level or no resources and run it with a con reports. this is what constitutes as play time for these children in the elbow. res refugee camp in central gaza, congregating around a makeshift cemetery where their loved ones have been buried. their names written on the wall uh, just as my father was killed and we were not able to recover as body for days. when

we finally pulled down his body, we were not able to bury this. finally, we buried my father in the school. yeah, a lot of many did bodies released lying in the straits for days. they would be composed and eaten away by cats and dogs. this is not life because of rights groups estimate that around 25000 posting in children have become orphans since israel's latest military campaign began on october 7th. the situation is so appalling that a new acronym has been coined, unique to the besieged, stripped w, c, n. s f. wounded child, no surviving family. medical staff at the camp are doing what they can with the few resources available upon the quadrant home, mac, many children we hate by dehydration and nourishment, menia suffering from diarrhea and vomiting because of contaminated water. we help them with what is the i the solutions available,

the words damaging costing in kids everywhere. the physical scars are obvious, but the mental damage is invisible. they are left to deal with their trauma. i get a way to have that on and i, we were at my own close house and we will hungry. my father said he would go to a home to get flour. it took him a long time, but the time they reached home, the house was hit by me. so after water, the young man said, my father no clue killed the next day, the bodies are pulled out totally disfigured. we buried them in the school yard or something for a generation of palestinian kids in morning and left to face their future. lo, reynolds on elders here the the time now to take a look at some of the days of the news. and russia has called me saying that the un security council to discuss what it says are western it's being used by ukraine to kill civilians. it's the 11th times since the contract began. russia has raised

this issue with the security council, and they're all still disagreements on the justification for sutton weapons being used in the war. houses there is gabrielle, is under reports from us. an attack on belgrade, russia, on december 30th last year. local officials claimed it $25.00 civilians were killed and more than $100.00. others were wounded in the attack. on sunday, in russia control don esc, 27, others were reportedly killed and dozens injured in rocket attacks on a busy market and shops rush up, blaine, ukraine for both attacks. at a un security council meeting, rushes for administer accused the west of providing ukraine with the weapons it says are being used to kill civilians. the blood of dozens of killed civilians is on the conscience of those who armed zalinski and sane. at the same time that the authorities and keep cut themselves determine what the goals for the strikes will be. before the meeting,

ukraine's ambassador to the un took the opportunity to flank himself with ambassadors from allied countries and assign of unity. in the meeting, he said, the weapons are being used for self defense and against russian aggression. it is an imperative to underscore it's ross has determination to inflict harm on ukrainian. civilians has not diminished. on the contrary, it has intensified significantly during the briefing, a date, a g e bowl, a un official that deals with this armament issues, stress the need to in the use of cluster munitions. in this conflict. by all sides, the united states transferred cluster munitions to ukraine last year. and human rights groups have documented how that weapon has been used to kill or injure
