2:04 am
that they are doing. and not only that, but even restrict where aid is delivered to once it does get into the gaza strip. even the united states is calling on israel to do more. we urge israel to keep border crossings open for the amount of turn a to enter gaza, to facilitate the opening of additional crossings to meet you monitor your needs and scale and to support the rapid safe delivery of relief items to vulnerable people and all the causes and it's not only humanitarian aid, the u. n. is saying that the entire agricultural system of gaza is on the brink of collapse. everything from the fishing industry to food production to everything. areas that are being bombed agricultural areas and also of farms or areas where they used to be productive, but the people have been forced to move out of those areas. the un saying the in
2:05 am
the most likely scenario, agricultural production will have collapsed in the northern part of the gaza strip by next month. they say in their words, we are already seeing this collapse today. gabriel's on the out just either at the united nations in new york earlier my colleagues volleyball people spoke to i've done that will has now he's a media advisor for the you in agency for palestinian refugees. he told us that the situation in gaza is dire. yeah, talking about hundreds of thousands of but it goes on the out actually starving in the north and bottom of the gulf, this type and it goes of safety. so what we are seeing there are that, you know, pushing people to do things that to, you know, they never have done it before, like, you know, gathering with dental thousands of people waiting for the trucks to get into it. because i said there's unders in all there is no police,
2:06 am
there is no actually no system in there that they kind of protect, you know, the become boys. and on the other hand, the, and many times and these are the far says the, on the open fire, you know, many, many, all the people and many of them died down into, or, you know, and some occasions you know. and then often part of goes to really to start, but they've been, you know, i mean, most food they're not there anymore. they've tried to use it for a why. but now everything a gun, actually there is not even a, you know, a, a foot for animals that they've been posting as in many places they, you know, trying to maneuver around that. and to me, you know, some bread from it. but now there's no more something like that. and then we are communicating with people, contacting people there. and they are telling us that the all to start being and
2:07 am
you know, somebody or family bread, windows x or this top, you know, eat, think i know. i know that it gets to eat, you know, when mean, you know, and then 24 hours or 48 hours and we are afraid that people there will not die. you . with the commissioner for humanitarian aid says the human agency for palestinian refugees is irreplaceable. in gaza is realized accuse some hon employees of taking part in the october 7th attacks and demanded that the agency be replaced by other international agencies. once the cause of war and 12, hon employees were fired in response and an investigation is underway down there. so not just told the european problem in the palestinians and gaza desperately need the aid under what provides luba. is it you to play simple, same sex. that's the thing. if we say that or other un agencies x 2, the presence in the gaza strip are saying that to us the international commit to
2:08 am
flip cos. he's saying that to us inside the national zit course and the red crescent family is saying that to us. and so do the international non governmental organization who had presence in the guise of 6 in this very difficult circumstances called us telling us no, we cannot possibly be pretty cool. but little gods as ministry of health says the 2 children have died from dehydration and that a number of infants suffering from serious malnutrition have been admitted to come out at one hospital in northern gaza. you in agencies are reporting that half a 1000000 people are facing starvation at all. 2.3000000 are short of food. i just see it as an especially if has more from the north and the strip. she has a lady, how did you have one such a dark night? so what are the people of guys that are here in the street waiting for humanitarian
2:09 am
a to arrive? there are some unconfirmed reports saying the aid will come to the northern areas of the strip of water despite the dangerous situation except for men, women and children of waiting to get a to the bottom is your leg. will you? and then if i have to be here and wait, because my children, i'm very hungry, i'm very hungry as well. and there might be flower and we needed to bake bread, but they don't know. we don't care anymore about the dangerous situation. we don't have hope. when your child cries of hunger and you can't afford anything for them, what do you think your reaction would be? there is no food. your nose who i've met and it's nothing that has a is our children are hungry and we are hungry. we grass and we eat animal feed. we haven't had bread for 4 weeks. my son sleeps hungry all the time. we are exhausted . we can't tolerate this anymore. we loved life, but in this situation, death will be better for me. my children can go on like this any more. we need
2:10 am
a humanitarian aid by any means, the end. if somebody could call her back, the price comes up as if it did. we are in the jabante of fiji trump and northern because we have, we've been as a shilling bombardment, destruction and massacre for nearly 5 months. the is what use different types of weapons against us. now we suffer from starvation. i kinda know the amount was it was a battery. i mean these right is showing in the bottom and hasn't killed us yet, but the hunger will know the guys that hunger will kill us. we heard that i who come by us a lot of the road the we heard it would come is a round about, then we heard the i would be drops by planes. so we headed towards the crossing. this is the, we ate the feet of animals. we ate the fate of sparrows and pigeons. we're about to slosik cats and eat steam. we need help. we meet lucy. how does
2:11 am
a whole lot of my shed will not be sure medical part of this is the situation in northern gauze. salvation is everywhere within these railings, preventing fee of humanitarian aid to thousands and thousands of palestinians. i'm desperately needed unnecessary if i just deal some of those. how much to downplay optimism from the us president but a ceasefire deal with his real is imminent. a senior, a member number of how much political wing best name a sold of 0 that how much is still not received an official proposal for a deal and mediators are still working on it. he said, for any deal to work on master's conditions must be met, including return of people to their homes. israel's total withdrawal aid access for palestinians and a guaranteed ceasefire. name also added that, how mazda seeking guarantors such as egypt, cup of turkey, the un, us, and russia to ensure any such deal is verifiably upheld by israel. he says biden's
2:12 am
intervention that has been directed at a domestic us audience and cannot conceivably have been intended to place pressure on israel and nothing. yeah. but so i'm down as a senior, how my spokesperson, he says they have not received an official proposal on the ceasefire. what unfortunately are you, i don't know how to present by then came up with this conclusion because the paper which was uh, introduced by the american side and about his it didn't show any it was to achieve a cease for that. it was close the most closer to the is what i the position and i mean anyway, the prime minister of, uh, it's in yeah. we had said that there was no, any kind of there was no kind of funding agreement with that. i'm going to come side on a ceasefire. so i, i am wondering why he's seeing that and how he's seeing that,
2:13 am
how he came up with this conclusion was there was no, no official to propose that as an american proposal. but was that of the asked of the niche by this meeting? and it was the paper which was the last of this meeting was and i made it kind of ideas about what it's supposed to be discussed, nothing more than this. this is the main problem. how they met. it comes up thinking we are talking about the ceasefire. we are talking about is really a tax to stop the tax against the british team. and so i was talking about the start of vision and goods the how to make it in for this everyone held government at the 9. so a full tool above talking that he would prevent food or to anything electricity to that. but his team is, in order to make them set in the for these right. it is. so it is a when to do that, start of ation and garza of the americans are talking about it. but it's not
2:14 am
a exchange. we have to talk about the most important essential issue to release the bridge i was in the old print, it was june, the biggest open air jail in the world because it has to release the people in does the door, the food come to them to, to to, to eat because we are talking about certain uh, people who have died by starvation in the north and bottom goods though. this is why we see the hill book. and i see of the american administration. we are talking about leasing. some is a, it, it was hundreds of thousands to point 4000000. so for the savings out of starving and goes to the us state department remains optimistic. a deal can be made to our goal is to achieve a deal to reach a humanitarian pause and the release of hostages as soon as possible. certainly
2:15 am
we'd welcome getting one by this weekend. um, what i can say about the overall progress is that we made significant progress towards an agreement last week. when we had officials from united states government engaging in the region, we continue to pursue further progress this week. american officials across the government continue to be engaged on this question. we are trying to push this deal over the finish line. we do think it's possible is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has suggested israel as the backing of the us public to continue its campaign and got so we could have somebody come on and move in the model, how many they need since the beginning of the war i have been leading a political campaign with a therapist, a kid, the precious contingent in the wall before its time. and on the other hand, to gain support for israel to whom we have had significant success in this area. because today, the habit harris poll is published in the united states, which shows that i see to be seen to the american public supports as riley best
2:16 am
means for out of 5 citizens in the us support as riled. this gives us another year of strength to continue the campaign until complete victory. same as robbie's in the remodel with more on that any i was comments, the nets and yahoo clearly signaling that as long as he enjoys american public support. as long as israel enjoys support in the us public sphere, he does not have to do what the white house or what president joe biden says. with regards to curbing the conflict, we're trying to big bring an end to the war and garza, and just on sunday on the us talk shows nothing. yeah. who's also quoted as saying that deal or no deal and assault on a rough off on the besieged area of rough our so many people are sheltering so many displays, palestinians are sheltering. that will carry on regardless of how the deal does or does not go forward. still ahead on al jazeera, the us extra diets,

2:20 am
a 1000000 people are just one step away from fan how boss is down playing optimism from the us presidents that a ceasefire. deal with israel could be imminent. a member of the groups political bureau told elders here for a deal to be finalized is real, must agree to withdraw all its forces from gods. the america has warrant that the world is witnessing a genocide of the palestinian people on his 1st day of visit to france shift the mean, but habit assigned. they also said that the international community is failing to end the suffering of palestinians in gaza for to protect civilians. even welcome to in paris by president emmanuel, my call and none of my hospital highly alarm and you worked in mobile with the counter and risks offline. i didn't either before, as the world continues to witness the genocide being waged against the brotherly palestinian people using starvation force displacement and indiscriminate showings that and meanwhile, the international community is still unable to adopt the unified stance that puts
2:21 am
an into the war and the gaza. strip it provides a minimum level of protection of children, women, and civilians. bernard smith has more from paris. this is the 1st state visit by cats as americans who came to pass and 20 the team to midland. how about? i'll fine, it hasn't goals been to friends many times since then, but the french, i've never before quoted at the state visit level, the highest level of visit that can be between sites and indications. hops have been potency. manual macro on attaches to capt as role in the negotiations between israel and how much on a potential new cx 5. at least, i probably says the tools over the next few days will focus on ongoing efforts to obtain a c 5 and enable months of age. to be provided to the people of guns. that's not a cause and priority for the palestinians that i'm homeless as well as getting is what israel. so withdrawal from the gaza strip. we know that on monday,
2:22 am
cause it may have met with a smile and a the leader of how much is political your of he's faced in doha. so he will be bringing the power as the latest information he has on how much this think punishment. i'll just say era powers to the us election now and presidential primaries are being held for both the democratic and republican nomination in the state of michigan. the ballot as seen as a test of support for donald trump and joe biden, in a key battleground state. by narrowly one michigan in the 2020 election, but now face of some opposition over his continued support for israel's war on. gotcha. all right, let's go to john henry, who joins us live from the city of dearborn in michigan. so john, how much support does the uncommitted vote have where you are as well, i'll tell you where i am, is really the epicenter of that uncommitted campaign. and when we 1st came here, i talked to the 1st 10 people who would talk to me 10 or 12, and they all said they were voting uncommitted. since then, we talked to
2:23 am
a trump folder. we talked to a gentleman who had switched parties from democrat and republican, but in general, this report here we're seeing is very significant. and a lot of the people we've talked to have said that they were very serious about sending a message to joe biden about the policy and gaza. and i have someone here who can talk a little further about this. this is college shedra. he's a business man here in dearborn and you are voting help. unfortunately, i am voted uncommitted in y as in, and we feel that we've been betrayed by president biden in 2020. we were his troll soldiers. we went campaign and we knocked on doors and we thought that when his team met with us, they said he's going to be just, he's going to be in close us and he's going to be fair. what do we have seen in the past? 120 days or so is the opposite. and that's been very frustrating. very emotional
2:24 am
for our community. and i know that was difficult for you because you were republican before that, after trump came around you said you'd, you'd switch to democratic parties or this is a big change for you. what do you say when people say a vote against biden is a vote for trump? they use that in 2020, and it was a fear tactic. but if the end of the day or community don't see a whole lot of difference between the 2, because every day they're still killing. and if one person can stop the killing of children, it's president by then. and all the asked to do is listen to over 6 percent of the us voters who are saying ceasefire. and he would be a hero. you would go down in history as someone who stop the killing of children. he refused to do that, and that's what it's so frustrating. yes, i'm a form of republicans. i made a lot of enemies by switching and made a lot of sacrifices, and i thought he was the white person for the right time. and unfortunately,
2:25 am
that is that the case a number of the people we've talked to who said they want to send a message to president biden, that they might change their votes at the end of november. but there are others who say, under no circumstances, will they vote for biden. what do you expect to happen? how do you feel about that? it's, it's, it's hard to support time, but we're setting a stage beyond the 2024 election. the state of michigan population continue to change. it's more diverse. there's more every american in more or most thumbs, which means this state could end up being a republican state if the democrats continue on the same path. that's right, jo. button one by a 150000 votes. last time. there are other communities that are upset with them for various reasons. so this campaign with about 300000 air of americans and most of the americans living in michigan could really makes a difference here. what do you think it will take to send the right message to joe
2:26 am
biden? is it the number of people who vote uncommitted what's gonna take for him is that he sees the emotion in the stand of the michigan motors. and we're going to send a clear message to him tonight that you have a chance right now, before the holy month of ramadan to say cease fire, stop the killer. the only way you can start negotiation in healing is by starting to cease fire and stop the killing of children. if you start that, then we will start looking and revisiting. is there a way that we can get together with them and see if there's a pathway where we can save just the election for him? well, thank you. college address. we appreciate talking to you about this and that is a fairly typical view from the many people we've talked to here, at least here in dearborn. this campaign is getting a significant amount of, of support. we'll see what the numbers add up to at the end of the not. all right,
2:27 am
john, thanks for breaking that all down for us. that's out of here at john henry and live for us in dearborn, michigan. a former leader of a far right parent military in columbia has been extradited from the united states after serving a 15 year sentence for cocaine trafficking. a salvatore mancuso now faces trial in columbia for killings and crimes. linked to his time is commander of the united self defense forces. the so called war lord has testified to a peace tribunal in hopes of receiving a lenient sentence. describe close links between far right paramilitaries and colombia as political elite. from baton, i listened to run p a t explains the significance of memphis those return or after 16 years for them or prior military war lord. so that's what i'm on because a returned at to columbia, there was great expectation for this a return. he will have to face a justice also here in his home country for thousands of privacy committed
