with the prophecies, a pressure of despair that we feel for what comes next. a dire warning from the un on life and southern gaza. we're more than a 1000000 people have moved to escape the violence the you're watching out a 0 light from a headquarters and don't find daddy, you navigate the also coming up. a letter of protests, more than $800.00 officials from the us and europe say their leaders actions on policies could be contributing to worst crimes and gaza. a steep increase in subtler attacks across the occupied west bank. the us sanctions for is released,

but hundreds go unpunished. argentina is lower house to vote on controversial reforms brought by president. have you, i mean, they the hello, it's 20 gmc 10 pm in gaza. the united nations is describing the crisis in the south of the strip as a pressure cooker of despair. many fear what's coming next with israel warning it will advance ground defensive to the southern most region of what i saw that borders egypt. the city is already over crowded with more than half of gauze, population of $2300000.00. we're looking for safety. yeah, this even though if i the best the i'll, i'll pop us in full security to deliver as, as much as they can to assist you. not enough for this, not enough clean frankie will to a and there's no protection with the nobody is,

is guaranteed from the, from the next kind of wave of fighting that will fears is, is coming on. and it's like every week we think we've got a can't get any worse. well, go through the fence minister you off the law and set on thursday that its forces are aiming to dismantle house and gaza and claim military operations in hon. eunice . have been successful. the southern cities, hospitals are under siege with schools sheltering displaced, palestinians being bombed and residential areas fits. and now the un children's agency says that an estimated 17000 children are in the strip or unaccompanied, or they've been separated from their families during the past 4 months. you have thought about someone who's joining us now from enough in the south of the gaza strip. tell us about what's happening in it. in particular, because there were airstrikes earlier on thought it. how concerned are people over and expanded military incursion into f, which was supposed to be a say?

so to yes, there you are. today we had more strikes on the area that supposed to be safe zone for the majority of displace palestinians for our taking shelter in a rough off right now as we have been see a hearing, a string of stripes that hit the main thing to areas between hon, you're just and also in the southern parts of a rough or has people getting much more worried about the possibilities of the extension of the fighting to reach rough idea as isabel is very keen to dismount of militarily the palestinian military existence inside this area as the people here have to, i mean, a place to be a taking shelter inside. now we've been talking about more than 85 percent of kansas population on now here. officer losing all of the houses being partially or completely destroyed as the question for palestinian is what next to go if the if the return back again to the north or any area in gauze or they have been only will

find ruffles on that praise. they wouldn't have any civil facilities to depend on the comments. there is homes and also people here to sit at the beginning of the find to in a rough i is the ultimate, not, not that old of demo afraid of simply because every single house here have been very tragic story. that mean is fools and people are completely afraid to lose most of the family members, especially that this area right now is, is floating with the factories will have lost hope in terms of what isabel is saying. i regarding safety as all of them on the look, a safe, even in the area that is supposed to induce ignited since the beginning of the world as a safe zone here. a thought. what are you hearing about fighting on the grounds in other parts of the gaza strip, as israel continues to say that there a mr. dismantle from us. yet for months on we understand that certainly hasn't been the case as

well. that sounds absolutely comes with us. so simply because as well, i've stated earlier that they have admitted sally, this months of the military infrastructure in the north and the goal is to city. but today we have been seeing more videos. imagine from different areas that are showing specials, going on that between the policy and fight, as i think is really so just as palestinian fighters are attacking ministry types that we're using, different cranes of onto type messiahs. and it seems that their battles that have continued again as is where the forces are carrying house mass offensive on the southern parts of gauze. and i will be seeing that is what it is with the trojan made a trooper gates from the north and enhancing gets military existence in the south as that trying to take full control over the middle of earnings and the southern parts in particular in finding us what they have been with in the past few days besieging hospitals in con you and especially in i'm on the mass or hospital. preventing accidents is from leaving from the gates of such hospitals to get to

areas of target things where the majority of injuries have been transported from con eunice to and that to our hospital in rough due to the unrelenting sets of abutment in the city of band only in con units today, more than 15 palestinians have been killed and totally within the past 24 hours more than 110 pallets. these have been killed alongside with more than 140 others injured? um it's a d o on getting confrontations here on the ground in the southern parts of the territory. all right, thank you so much talk to about zoom recording from alpha in the gaza strip and that's how the standings are returning to areas and the besieged clauses. start from where there is really military has withdrawn. the scale of destruction is immense. many save that they're not deterred by the huge task of rebuilding their homes and run or lack of reports. returning home to what little is left. pulse the needs and the home a coffee area got to city are sort of being the scale of destruction for the 1st

time. since he is really military announced a withdrawal from small pockets in the besieged strip. remnants of their lives are scattered throughout the wreckage. what hasn't been destroyed is the unflinching resilience and loyalty to land that holds their history, their stories, and their future motions. the malta, new, all our properties have been destroyed. we are old, innocent, defense, a civilian. we have nothing to do it from us or the resistance. they are trying to transfer us. the goal of israel is to force us to go somewhere else. we will never leave all land. we will never go anywhere you should give me the right scoops estimate more than 70 percent of residential homes and the gaza strip have been heavily damaged or destroyed. that's around a $132000.00 buildings. the u. n says around 650000 palestinians will have no home to return to when the war ends. debris from the mass destruction is expected to

exceed 8000000 metric tons and take about 3 years to remove. as well as residential buildings, schools, government offices, and health facilities run by you and agencies have been leveled or beyond repair. the task of rebuilding seems overwhelming. the palestinian said they are undeterred and on the side of it cut them off. i will stay here until i die. i am steadfast. we will never leave our matter. it is the occupation that we live our lives one day, sooner or later. like many in casa, this neighborhood has been destroyed. but for the people who live here, this land will always be their home. no matter how many times they need to rebuild and begin their lives again. and run a lot, hon. i'll just hear more than 800 officials in the u. s. u k. and the european union has signed a letter criticizing their and government support of israel's war on gaza. they include about 80 from american agencies, while the largest group is from european union institutions. the letter says,

as rules, so no boundaries and its military operations, causing tens of thousands of preventable civilian deaths. the military operation hasn't contributed to defeating from us and is instead strengthening its appeal. it also says support for israel has been without real conditions or accountability. and that there are governments risk contributing to great violations of international humanitarian law, war crimes, ethnic cleansing, and genocide, berber vendor of woods is a former dutch diplomat who's served in milan and the occupied westbank. she resigned in 2022 and protests. the dutch policy on israel and palestine, she says the letter, it shows how serious the situation is. they are so deeply worried about what the current position taking with the current lines of action are doing to not only the stability region, but also what are, what is the impact on, on, on,

on the international law and its credibility. so that's why you see everywhere across the world, basically you see you see some sort of form of organizing. also in the netherlands where i am from there has been, have been less as already there are weekly 6. is that the minister of foreign affairs of civil service across the government? um and yeah, and so the civil service decided that it would be a strong message if they organized also across the ocean, across the atlantic ocean to, to give a signal. and that's what they did, an important factor. what of course, also uh, the routing uh of the segment of the international court of justice last week stating that what is happening and gods are right now has a high probability of a matching. so genocide, so we are dealing with an extreme situation and i think it is a bit in the course of the, of a desperate maybe as well. they just realized the civil service that they're the,

the possibilities to influence can certainly be which they would rather do much rather do. i mean this is not something you should do every day. of course a bonus. uh, there's basically no way of pushing the policy in the right direction. according to the settler attacks against palestinians in the occupied westbank have increased sharply since israel launched its war on gaza, moneys out us sanctions on perpetrators of the violence will do much to hold them to account. charles dropped for a report from the time until you another attacked by his really said lives in the oki, polite westbank. the policy to be and villages tell us, the attackers came in the middle of the night from one of the to illegal settlements on the other side of the valley. family of 5 heated, terrified in the hole. as the settlers pull federal over, they call such a light and that the situation is terrible. don't allow us to farm or build or take

care about trees, whatever bite and says the settlers wouldn't listen to him. as we feel is really on the g. p, a driving off into the village to palestinian olive groves. this is one of hundreds of attacks on palestinian property. why it legally is really secular since the war began on gauls, on october the 7th. the people here is you can imagine a very nervous these way the ministry has just arrived. they do not want to be filmed. now all of the weeks of promises and rhetoric in washington the find the ministration now says it will impose sanctions on is lady settlers accused of committing acts of violence be occupied territories. the 1st full settlers targeted by the sanctions include 22 year old david che chest a who reportedly let a group that sit by to buildings assaulted palestinians and damaged property,

resulting the tax, the palestinian civilian, and this mosque, my shovel, zip among the fields, i'm throwing a rock through a car window, the office of prime minister benjamin netanyahu released the statement saying, is well x again slowly. so it's easy to break the law every way. therefore, exceptional matches are not necessary to do the secular latest denounced biden's order. the executive orders thought signed by the president of the united states is both disappointing and surprising. you would expect president biden to look into the fact before signing such an order. you in says that has been a massive increase in set through a tax on palestinians and their property in the last 4 months, many involving guns and with the support of frontier to print for him. and so he's ready. so just and by other things on the, i bet it's, it doesn't give any consent to the so to the send doesn't mean anything to them if the americans invite them. and so i think that this is towards the group. he has to

deal with them as a turner this have to be punished. you have to be taken to ga us pressure on israel . small right? government may be growing. but many palestinians say biden's executive order is more about his re election campaign. and about forcing any change is rails behavior, child stuff, et al, jazeera, a. so yeah, in the occupied with bank more than 9000 children have been injured. and israel's war on gaza. many have had arms or legs amputated. some doctors have been forced to carry out operations without anesthetic one. young palestinian girl recalls her or do you and the other then when they had on file a right that on summer in that that that i've that is that was not a bad guy being yeah. i love that. no doubt. wow. no,

i have fallen national like it should have been around like it's highly out of always need them to the side of the yeah. i you make, well, i have to and i have one of the math a lot is philippine is in the lab and helpful not by then. yes, i had bubble. i'm glad i see something and then nothing was the name of leah le. he's saying that no hands on the guide and then by then listening to i'm still working on i didn't see a hole in one request. so the, the accounting team has to be in the highlands. i'm

to see when i get my bills online, then play it off the bus last night the mid afternoon. so that's not a hit in the standing side. you took learning who yeah, ma'am you let them know. yeah, a lot of i'm lovely. all i didn't get any side to you, let me see, can that for the rest? they said, i would say that really i have been was how, how many is a lot of the uses a lab the how, how around and i've not meaning of 9 minutes. i'm still ahead on al jazeera. we'll explain how germany is decision to is it citizenship? laws will affect millions of people the

the, the weather brought to you by visit a laptop. so i think you really went across the coast of tropical queens and the times though, just over a week ago and caused some damage to the strength of when his hasn't gone away. he's just reform the circulating storm. drawing nerves won't moisture from the gulf of commentary. the rare event it maintains its circulation as it drops, floods all the way down through the heart of others, really a big does it complement. otherwise, it's a dry, warm picture. sidney's it says to melbourne must be about the boys the summer, especially for the real hot weather is further west as finals as marble. while we see 46 or 47 recently, that will continue in western australia. and new zealand caught looking down. sunday was 25 degrees in christ church. you go up to the come monday. 36 is

available in southern thailand. if you get to $57.00, that will be a new record. the wet weather during this ready seasons is migrating into borneo, java and sumatra. a more or less leaving the philippines much drying there. and also when to continues kids don't particularly severe in japan, but in china is a different story. there are warnings are for the severity of the upcoming snow. for indeed rain falls in the heart of china. the weather brought to you by visit castle expo 2023 the world. the fascination of joined us and let's discover

a better world expo 2023. the news the color again here is a reminder of the top stories on al jazeera this hour. so you and humanitarian agencies, so as that's concerned about israel's plans to expand its operations instead of describing the southern most city and gaza as a pressure cooker up to spare. but f r, which borders egypt as the last place of refuge for more than half of gauze as 2300000 population. 800 officials from the us and europe assigned to a letter protest saying their leaders, actions and policies could be contributing to war crimes in gaza. the letter also

says that is really a tax or is defeating from us, but strengthening its appeal. and the un children's agencies has an estimated 17000 children and gaza, have been separated from their families unit. so i've had earlier a cold israel's military offensive a war on children. earlier we spoke to test ingram from unicef. she recently returned from gaza and told us about some of the children she met there. when i was there, i met dozens of children who all told me about their different experiences. each one had an absolutely heartbreaking tale of, of loss of, of displacement. so many of the children are living in conditions that no child should have to bad living and make some shelters in the cold, with no deductibles, lack of access to food and clean water and sanitation and, and really missing the kind of safety and security. and that, that things like having a permanent home at the school provided for the so the conditions uh, you know,

incredibly terrible beyond even what i imagine they would be like before heading into, into gaza. and, and as you say to these children, the, the long term impact on their mental health is something that way, you know, stuff a very concerned about. because you know, in another conflict around the world, a child in the family might experience one or 2 to a medic events, but then being able to say the same to you. but the repeat in trauma, the children and gods are experiencing will definitely have a long term impact on their mental health. buffalo, these this rate, most recent escalation hostilities, we estimated that about half of the children and god the needed urgent mental health support. we now said that numbers almost a 100 percent, you know, seconds on the ground, providing some level of mental health support in psycho social services. we've reached over $40000.00 children, but it's obviously not enough. the so i'm much more we can do. and what, what we are concerned about is that until the fighting stops and children can feel

safe when not going to say the real kind of effects of that trauma or understand how we can help properly. so that's why we need an immediate cease fire so. so the, the trauma can stop and we can help them. argentine on his lower house, we'll soon vote on controversial reforms that a spark protests and the streets congress is continuing its debate on presidents. have you any needs reform bill? if approved, what's known as the on the bus bill will lead to cox and public services and job losses. at least 4 people were arrested on thursday after protest. her is fault with police outside parliament. teresa bows in the capital of one a series and so as a vote could happen later on friday. and the debate is still ongoing. this is the start date, and for many, this is the longest succession in congress since 1985. there's been lots of tension inside congress between low, many cars and negotiations on going, but also on the streets on thursdays. and so hundreds of people outside of congress,

even thousands of them, the work flashes between processors and the police. the police were preventing them from getting close to the building from blocking roles using a tier gas, walter, a rubber boot with that. come on, got the thing. the government is saying the security forces here. this is ongoing, generated a risk for heavier me. it's the basis started with over $600.00 losses. when we do now we, we have seen we have seen the number of states that the government wants to privatize to go down from 37 to 26. we're also seeing that the president wants to get extraordinary powers. initially, it was for 2 years now it's been agreed that it's going to be to one year. and that he, there's going to be limitations to the powers that he's going to get. so suddenly,

not somebody vocations on the way. it's not clear yet when the boat is going to happen in the international court of justice as rule that a does have jurisdiction to hear a genocide case brought by ukraine against russia. days after the invasion, in february 2022 ukraine accused russia of reaching the genocide convention. moscow side, it invaded to stop and a legit genocide of russian speakers in eastern ukraine. it rejects ukraine's arguments is breached the treaty on one was the case dismissed, according to keep the german parliament has approved a radical change to the citizenship laws, which will allow more migrants to naturalize. as germans. the government says the new legislation will benefit people who have lived and worked in the country for decades. from berlin, dominic came reports. these people are cuing to take a german language test. if they pulse, they'll be one step closer to becoming german citizens. so years that's been

a long and difficult process, but now parliament has voted to relax the rooms, which was helpful for them. i mean, i lived here since leaving jordan in 2016. good. very good news. that's very good news. the, i think there's a lot of people, the been living in germany working and quite well integrated. you can see, but the rules were a bit district in pot ministers say the changes to bring germany in line with the rest of the e. u and vital this noise, that's a new citizenship, though, is a historic step towards a more modern immigration country. everyone has now understood that i can only maintain out economic prosperity of social cohesion to immigration. under the revised law applicants will be allowed to keep their existing citizenship the time a person needs to live in the country to qualify will also be caught. for most applicants, it will be 5 years instead of the current 8. for those with fluent german vats

drops to just 3 years. the biggest potential beneficiaries of the changes are from the turkish community. my boot is one of the 3 and a half 1000000 techs in germany to aunt germans citizens. i always thought it would be hard to do. i could have it qualifications, all sorts of things, but you haven't skills to say, so it'd be good enough now. i think so now i need to submit an application know to everyone. welcome to change, little conservative cd you potty opposed to all the far right. if day has been accused of wanting to the polt migraines to become naturalized as germans. its leaders deny this and have denounced the new law and the governments entire asylum and migration strategy. these are the take, the type of these policies. you're driving local authorities to despair blowing up welfare systems and undermining internal security. but above all, you're depriving germans of the homeland torch. the new law will not come into

effect until mid may at the latest. but there are already hundreds of thousands of people in the system waiting to be naturalized. so even with the new laws that's not going through both houses of parliament, potential applicants may well be waiting separately is to get hold of one of these, a german possible. it's going to came out to 0. the government's investigation is under waiting cameo. after at least 3 people were killed and a major fire, 14 people are missing and $280.00 others injured firefighters bottled for hours to put out the blaze in nairobi. katherine story reports from the scene. people here in a crowded neighborhood last settling down for the night when suddenly an explosion . some said they had smelled gas fumes for about an hour before the incident. investigators believe

a leak at the plant lead to gut feeling does exploding local people say the hard to sound like send followed by a huge ball of fire. several walk killed. this woman is inconsolable. this is the gospel apple where they've got cylinder exploded. it heat. neil biotech style warehouse, the court fire, several residential houses, vehicles and business premises, well also damaged. the impact was huge. this is a call that has been completely destroyed. no residents who are in the houses say that the explosion was so loud that houses should stop clean carrying the series, the house was leaving in was a raised to the ground. almost my belongings destroyed to watch them. oh no more for the people started saying fire fire. i felt weak. i felt i was suffocating for

me to call them monoxide. there was a woman behind me and she wanted help. but i could only save myself. i'm of the opinion. the motto, government officials have launched an investigation into why the plant was operate without a license from the energy regulator. it was not in place just with the status of it . so clearly uncomfortable and focused on the residential area of the manual such illegal businesses. and definitely they compromise people wanting to do so. and those are the people that come to the lives of jacqueline and her neighbors has been turned upside down. they said they've complained to many times about the devil and why it was being operated, hoping government will act quickly to ensure facilities like this can be moved away from where people leave catching. so all these era nairobi in the eastern democratic republic of congo, at least one person has been killed into injured and explosions at an elementary

school that happened in laguna near goma in north kia who province the government. so as the m 23 rebel group is responsible, and this follows weeks of growing violence. am 23 fighters are reported to be close to goma north korea as far as several cruise missiles, office, west coast, elite or condone, also called for his military to stuff of preparations for war. florence louis osborne, north korea launch is 4th weapons test in just over a week. 5 and cruise myself into the c test is carried out in the past month include one's on a hypotonic missile. and new submarine launched cruise missile on friday. stage media also released photos of northwind the day came jo.
