1:00 pm
on one of the houses very close to the hospital. very right. are right now, and we're top and they can't lead because it's very dangerous and i'm getting interested not stop transferring injuries. i'm not only ambulances, we're talking about people don't get cars, cars, anyone trying to has as much as possible. i talked to a lot of injuries, some permanent company, they said that it was woke up on intense are tell me recently where but the, the, the show of the houses and they got injured and it was a merry crow. how be evacuated and gone down to their houses because they've already tanks are stationed on. i'm still not being broad, it's still intensifying me to still here. are tend to be shunting in the background and the hospitals are oh well, you can't imagine the people are on the poor. magic's volunteers, everyone is trying to has them. there is no place for them when they're even trying
1:01 pm
to put more injuries in the other department in the hospital at the doctors are trying their best to rescue as much people are as possible. but there are a lot of to be or could you go into these big now and everyone is terrified. people are clarified. they think there's another talk on the look. the hospital we're talking about an area that has been coughing, hundreds of thousands of kind of like if you went to young dropbox in the past couple of weeks and came here because they've already purchased the air is the fix . it needs to take that r. yeah, people came to this area steering air strikes, look like down. there's nosy place in gaza and people are now homeless certified. or if i series another way of buying into an asterix and they don't know where to hide or where to go. it isn't desperate situation, hen and i can hear you can get a sense of what is happening now just from the,
1:02 pm
the kind of a sound of your voice. so i hope that you are in a place where you are able to report. but obviously as you say, there is no safe place in gaza because of what is happening there. and also we see on our screens just there in the box, you can see pictures of a smoke billowing into this is from almost say it off. i believe we are looking at images on the site out. this is in the northern part of gauze, or of course we have seen attacks that are damaged homes that have reduced infrastructure, residential building, civilian infrastructure, residential buildings, and hospitals to rumble. we know that the wall has displaced a most of the territories population. i mean 8590 percent. most of the targeted population has been displaced because of, of shortages of food,
1:03 pm
clean water in medicine. but of course, it doesn't seem to matter where people go. they will still face those shortages and they will face continuing attacks. and so from, and just to be absolutely clear about what is happening right now, what has been paying out the last few minutes. we have seen residential buildings and these latest strikes targeted gun ships of bombing the area near the fishing port. and then also. busy is ready forces a targeting areas around alexa hospital and darrell bala, which has been coming on to massive amounts of strain and recent days and weeks is the hospital still able to function in some way? can you repeat that t as down a lot? yes. in tell me, i don't know if you're getting any information about the alex the hospital. is
1:04 pm
there any forces have been targeting areas around the alex hospital and narrow by the can you, do you have any information yet about whether the else has been targeted or just the area around? it was one of the one. 0, there's a house that was targeted to so i like the hospice it and we're talking about the sidewalk 3 times surrounding the place where where people were displaced to the area of so it's not only targeting house near the hospital. it's target think this place, positive news part the area will say, but also when is the turn invest received a call from that is where the army telling them that they will target 10 inside a lock the hospital. and that's why everyone's horrified. we're talking about a place like the hospital is not only a hospital, it's also a refuge and the shelter for hundreds of thousands of college thing in the future in the cost of those 4 months right now. and now they bought this
1:05 pm
a warning from one of the journalist who received a call from the army, telling them that they were going to target a couple of times in the courtyard of the hospital. we're seeing people running, we're seeing people. i'm looking for a safe place. everyone is left the hospital to the area surrounding the hospital and and, and people are literally, it can't find anything said they do not know where to go. they're searching for a place they're trying to move west. but again, our headquarters there are lots cop, just people are hearing live the munitions or the or are kind of re sending and it's also not safe for them do evacuated from outside the hospital. this is the scene right now. and no one can understand anything because that's can they think it starts is escalating in one hour. all the hurt is i'm going to say i'm just in close and these are crying children crying mothers looking for their children. not
1:06 pm
being right now. i want to make it absolutely tell me what is happening right now. let's see. we can see some pictures from the alex hospital and then also some of the pictures from down on the bottom. but what we are talking about, and in recent days and weeks is a significant escalation, a class such and is writing a tax on the areas that have been classified by these. riley's a safe zones. so in other words, we are seeing an increasing number of tax in many parts of gaza, particularly the central areas, but age, nevada, the refugee camps, and data by law. and these are areas that have been classified as safe zones. so in other words, these ratings have said that if there was an escalation or a rise in attacks and one parts of gaza, the people move to a different area that they will be safe. but as is explaining that we are seeing artillery shelling we are seeing as strikes. and we are seeing live munition being
1:07 pm
fired into areas where you have thousands, in some cases, hundreds of thousands of civilians who have taken shelter because they've been displaced from their homes. a yes, we're talking about more than 1000000 kind of to use the box you waited from the foster western parts of reform. in the past couple of weeks, all of these people were squeezed into the middle area because there was no other place for them to go. the hospital was one of the places that had a lot of kind of been used at this place and more the same kind of thing. you came into the hospital. we're talking about the sidewalk. we're talking about the cost of the about the culture at the company about school, but i know every inch of let me do that and get it back. and i think it was supposed to be safe. people came from all the way from napa, near the shop. this area was going to be away from the military. is there any
1:08 pm
military encouragement? the mit is where the operation, but here you go. it's, it's you can imagine the amount of injuries every i taught children and women girls ladies. and then all of these were civilians in the paid all team days. but that's where the is where the are kind of returning target their houses and they were keeping very early in the morning talking because of cruise. they thought that they had a lot of time is just an optical to go and to rescue these people because it's very concrete. everywhere the quad quad stairs were everywhere. lot munition was everywhere but submitted to set that they were unable to reach people here at this point the amount of explosions we heard since the morning was, must have it every single minutes. you'd hear a lot of explosion either from our understanding uh air strikes of for the worship, from all the sides, from the south, from the west for the north, from the east,
1:09 pm
and gotten the middle area was supposed to be a designated area as a state. so safe place and you're on to see me as our hearts are. they do not know where to go. and all i see is little children asking me, are they going to talk with us? where should we? hi, there is no place for us to go, and this is true. we are all traffic right now. we have people know when you say, but people say, and to be honest like everyone here is, are 5. i'm, i'm an, i'm talking to you right now. i'm in the entrance of the emergency, you know, like the hospital more injuries are coming and being transferred into a hallway that is all very overburdened with patients with entries methics or hire . it's like they're trying to do as much people as possible. some people have been killed and transferred to the hospital right away. it's
1:10 pm
a very hard day for the people and get it back in the middle area. and we still do not know what you've currently happening in the cell. you know where their husband intensive as strikes and are tend to really in the area to yeah. so it's very important to make it to clarify that we see all corners of the gaza strip old corners of gaza, but it being attacked right now. we have been speaking about a role that has been covering a role that has been going on for 8 months now. we have seen a surge and attacks it and with a, a focus on particular refugee comes in gaza. but agent now, hi is the new site up in recent days and weeks. but it seems as though over the past few days, that has been a clear such a clear surge in these attacks where you have civilians who don't just talk about civilian infrastructure, residential buildings. because a lot of that infrastructure has been reduced to rubble. we are speaking about
1:11 pm
refugee camps for displace people. and so what we saw beginning at the start of this war was a focus on northern gauze or and as you are explaining and many people were told to flee to the south. and so they made the way from northern garza into central parts of garza heading into han units in the south and then even farther and then into the south and in rough. ok. now in recent weeks, we sold the is riley's escalating their operations, our tax and rough, or they said to route out of mass fighters there. and so they were focusing on run 5. this has also been accompanied by a closure of the land crossings. so while you have a wall going on, you have people displays, you have many people wounded, no one has access to any sort of treatments. they're unable to get treatment when they go to the hospitals, all spittles, concrete, them, if they do get to the hospital because they don't have the supplies to be able to, to deal with the patients. because the line crossings
1:12 pm
a close. and because there is a siege of the gaza strip, i'm so with this escalation and activity and rough uh we then have seen many thousands of palestinians move into the central positive, gaza. and that's why we're right now of the alex the hospital way is ready forces have launched at raids. deluxe hospital in darrell bought a. we know that a number of people have been killed and wounded. and i'm just looking at some of the reports here. yeah, some of the, some, some of the scenes that we've been monitoring at show that those who have died in this attack include children who bring boat to the locks hospital and, and this is one of the few remaining hospitals that is not just the hospital as you say it is providing refuge and shelter to many palestinians, so we can only imagine the kind of that the sense of, of terror they feel when they see the area around the hospital itself being
1:13 pm
targeted by as strikes. do we have a rough idea about the number of people who might be in the hospital? what just in terms of stuff and medical what cuz but those who would be taking shelter as well. we have, we have been trying to talk to the medics and asking them about how many people are inside the house. so they say that's there, at least like there are, like they said, approximately $38000.00 people right now inside of the hospitals to be injured. and not only patients, but also the families of those injures because they do not have any place. and they're taking refuge inside where we're talking about one of the only hospital bill functioning. and still having, excuse me, the department, the department still operates. surgeries in the hospice and it's,
1:14 pm
they're having a couple of the cases from paige, from myself and from other international organizations do have a medical treatment to all of the kind of thing is that they need to be here. monday. could need amendment to intervene. but there's a very important thing that's for more than a month. now, since the rustling crossing close and insipid, it's military operation. there has been no medicine that was transferred to a hospital. metrics are saying that they're running on supplies and the amount of injuries that receive since the morning is not said we're talking, we're trying to talk to the medical team. they said that's of, um, uh, the injuries doctor, that's where are were transferred to a we're, we're, we're children, bergamot, and he's told us this, we would need that. but another thing that's most of the injuries were put because
1:15 pm
an engine is where most of the lower them to work needs, immunization, and perhaps if they could not have to risk you of these injuries, we're talking about the hot button. it's running out of unexpected work. they're trying to do their time to has all of these injury without any pink color, any static. we say how many people were killed, how many people were transferred to the hospital, and the fact that they did not even come to come home from the huge house. the number of the insures were transferred to cost with the area. so somebody, i'm talking to you as a more good kids are coming into the hospital. my husband goes to the injury and i tell you the hospital is core to 3 times the beach,
1:16 pm
but the medical supplies to fix fear. and i thank you so much. i'm sorry to interrupt you, i'm so sorry to interrupt you hand, but that would just in the line is not right care and it's breaking up a little bit. but we got a sense of what you were saying there. some 8000 people are inside the alex. the hospital in darrow bylines, central gaza is writing forces has launched at raids in the area around the alex hospital as and was explaining to us a number of people have been killed and wounded. but she was describing a massive influx of patients who have had 2 of arrived at the hospital. as a result of these recent is riley strikes and attacks on gaza and, and was saying that the patients include women and children, women and children are among the casualties there. this is
1:17 pm
a hospital that is really one of the few, perhaps even the only hospital that is actually functioning inside gaza. but it's not just all spittle that is that providing medical treatment. the building itself is also a shelter. it is also a housing many thousands of people because it's not just the number of people who've been injured that have been pro 10 that the families of those who've been injured are also taking shelter. displaced people are also taking shelter inside this hospital because they have nowhere else to go. and so that was a hand and alphabet every reporting that from kaiser. and we will get back to her a little bit later on. that's now speak to him on con. uh, non con is reporting to us from amman and jordan, and the is there, is there any government said anything and ron about these attacks? well, what we're hearing from the is really all me is a very short statement saying they're going off the terrorist infrastructure in on
1:18 pm
the 3rd a refugee camp for that is a statement is very difficult to square with the pictures that we're seeing, women and children be rushed to the hospital of water and the horrific revolting that he was describing there as well, or college in garza. so what we're hearing is from a trusted is really military reports, is these are the people that these reading me that you trust. i give them information that this is a operation by eh, land, and see it's a fault bigger operation that we've seen perhaps in recent weeks. but these really minute treat as i say, israel, that very short, short statement saying they'll going off the terrorist infrastructure. now remember, just a week ago they said that they'd hit terrorist infrastructure in rough or, but actually some 45 people civilians were actually killed in might by cool that the rough massacre, we don't know how many injured, how many people are all dead arriving at the highlights a hospital,
1:19 pm
but that number does seem to be rising throughout the day. and then just a few days ago, we had another attack where how about i with these rarely said they targeted. he how much lead is a mass r c? turn around and said, well the, the names you've given now actually on some athlete as i told, in fact for them doesn't even live in garza. so once again we, we've got this situation where he is raised issue a statement. finally gotten off the terrace infrastructure, but the pictures that we see live on o at suggest that it civilians, once again, quote in the middle us, yes, there's some it is you say a and wrong. this is something that has been continuing a sort of cycle where is riley may be done issue these statements, right? giving you a saying that it's unusual, but in this case they said that they are targeting infrastructure and causes an estate on area. and you know, and we have seen a k of focus by these riley's on areas that they themselves, designated safe sons. and you know,
1:20 pm
this includes the largest refugee camp and gaza, but also some of the smaller ones put age and the hockey. but, you know, with the displacement of crisis and gaza now and was saying a 1000000 people have been displaced probably even more because, you know, they've had to move from place to place multiple times. you know, these refugee camps will have swells and you know, to numbers that a problem, you know, very difficult for us to, for us to document. but they've also been a clear focus on these a refugee camps for despise people in recent days, haven't now. well, let's just get one thing absolutely clear about this. i mean, we keep saying this and just said that the honors safe places in garza, however, these ladies keep talking about cyber science because that's one of the things that the americans are put pressure on them to do. we just rewind back to the very beginning of this world that was supposed to be a number of areas that weren't going to be hit. these. randy's issued a met,
1:21 pm
they divided the areas into a little squares and said if you go to that square, you're going to be side by mouth is going to complete the out of the window. now the way it is safe and goes, if any of these refugees, many a 1000000 of them, at least as you just pointed out, that could well be more. but this is a p r exercise for the is right. these. and these ratings of always admitted this, i keep saying that we have these sites, things, these sites, things, all that for the palestinians go to books, they can change at the blink of the night. that's what the exact words they use. but that's what we see in effect. so the idea of science is very much a public diplomacy exercise from me is riley's and is comes from american prussia. thank you very much. and ron, appreciate it. and long con, reporting to us from amman and jordan. just to remind you that the reason we all there in jordan is because the cabinets owned the prime minister. benjamin netanyahu has bind elders, they are from reporting inside israel itself. now
1:22 pm
a little bit earlier we heard from dr. muhammed and the lawyer who is with the gaza civil defense team. he was telling us about the impacts of these lights. his strikes, the ease riley forces have targeted without any warning for houses. hosting a lot of people. the forces advanced towards east 0, bella and forced the palestinians to leave the areas. the deluxe. the hospital received many dead and wounded people following these reilly attacks. the ambulance and civil defense teams, us to recovering bodies and injured the people from under the rubble of the capacities a very weak. and they were only 3 fire engines in the central area. we're facing a lot of challenges and we talk, reach every person. these riley forces have evacuated the whole of the outcast to neighborhood without prior warning, and without declaring it or red zone. despite the fact that elizabeth district in
1:23 pm
rafa has been announced as a red zone, there are still a lot of dead and wounded due to these rightly attacks on friday. districts kohls, haven't stopped from this district where a lot of people are still trapped under the rubble. we went to help them and i thought we were prevented by these riley. um vehicles or, or joining us now is tom and how to move to as an associate professor of public policy. the don't minds issue for graduate studies tom and maybe just was looking at where we're at at the moment. in the past few hours of the past day, is there any forces of interest in air right in the vicinity of the locks, the hospital and down all by a number of people have been killed and wounded. and as our correspondent who is reporting from inside cause are in dire and thought it was saying, many ambulances, a massive influx of things like that, people arriving in the hospital. this includes women and children, also the director of the quite the hospital and rough uh says there are people that
1:24 pm
are in the streets elected with corpses. people have been killed by these riley ami, rescue workers are unable to reach the injured that. we've also been seeing pictures of attacks on the site on comp and the state on is in northern garza. so we are seeing a significant escalation and attacks in all parts of the strip. it appears to be happening happening, single, tiniest, lee in northern central and southern gone. so what do you make of, of what we're seeing right now, ma'am? um, i mean, of course, it's somebody who to fight and torch this crime edible lives. i mean, and again, the silence and then a bit if you've done to this community to stop this, the best that good a. so i think i'll, i'll talk about the political aspects of probably be why the timing now on why this bush, if we want to name it as a push, maybe this would be less force because that is the mounting pressure, of course only is that a from also the us to accept the uh,
1:25 pm
uh, to engage and then the restrictions were promised and these got this and hopefully the, and this was done medically. but these ladies are not the i think what the button finds to do now is become us, be the price. and guys, a fee, the price by now pushing for the info that bella and dropped off. and these are the lot the last those old areas, of course nothing is safe in guys or that they've been safe. safety designated areas and, and put more pressure on how to accept the deed without any guarantees for putting minutes. these files. i don't think maybe this is what these bailey's are ending now in the, in the mind. like, let's do what a mate this another mess and push to bring. i must accept the dean without any guarantees. and possibly this would be one reason why they're doing this,
1:26 pm
this genocide, the like in criminal act and, and, and also because in, in the mindset of what we have been eating also for many minutes the on that is that off and then the, the, the govern the rates are the last, it is what is when does not in total for the what you find out and destroy. and the, of course, the claim that there are, there is a small order to be gauge of how much force and so they want also to do a complete job. busy as they advocate for the, for the big city by entering the engine, the guys are split up and destroying and routing all thomas. but of course, i mean the price is we can see that it's sort of fixed. and the at the brings me things the member does back to a do you and i'm back. when is it? i've been sitting or claiming that this is the most modern ottoman, the lord. now must have thought of getting old. i mean sugar and civilians, man and woman named them. now they're going up to the last few remaining hospitals and the slip to destroy them. i'm probably probably again,
1:27 pm
3 displaced out displays. but i've seen that civilians back to can you and us, which is has, which has been fully destroyed. and people in the, in the lot as constipated thing in the, in the body of a lot, lots comp without any facilities without any new services. the human isaac for the scene and basically keeping that this the human is ation until they sit under. i mean, this is a very important to is you say we, we look at the politics of what is happening. an escalation and military activity in gaza will put pressure on him us to accept deal which uh and he is right. he's also getting pressure from the americans. and so the idea is for him, us to accept a proposal without asking for any further guarantees. and these as strikes are a means of doing that. meanwhile, these right, the ministry is issued a statement saying that they are targeting militant infrastructure and causes and
1:28 pm
the site ought to area. and one thing that has emerged over the past month, the eclipse, that of trend is that we are seeing these riley's returning to areas to parts of gauze a why they had previously withdrawn, claiming victory of mass. this idea that how mass can be destroyed, you know, idea logically it can't be destroyed, it's, it's positive that the 5 blankets, it's a movement to not just a political movement, a social movement that's with a history, but also even just in the strength and power and capacity of the israeli army waging war on uh, on gaza, a 8 months later, going back into areas where they had claimed victory of a high mass. because they say there is still militant infrastructure in those areas . but this is not an insurgency, and certainly many americans,
1:29 pm
really. analysts describe it that as an insurgency seemed like happens in it or whatever. this is a word for liberation award to get to adults one of the longest in joining last single few patient and much more than history. and this is a lot of that brings old for the soonest to be able to uh, if you disagree or agree with how much that takes, how much remains a maintenance to the national for this thing in movement. and yes, it's an, i don't know, just an idea. i know it for less of the mean and even thrive and sort of 5 as long as the root cause that enabled time us establishment or contribute the message press. this is under, continue to domains, is a new patient. so it's not this, this, this project or this thinking or this mindset that is an to it and is a good time as to what the ultimate, that goes to the is probably gonna happen as long as occupation persist. the problem is, these are you probation?
1:30 pm
the problem is that there is no a bigger division to in this conflict between these or it isn't. the 1st thing is that no one is able to push is ready to accept the terms of the piece, the, and also of anything that that will contribute to creating and independence. but as soon as they uh for the 1st thing is they could live fi like other nations. so this is, that will cause anything else that visit bailey's and the americans come to play doing it will be cosmetic, non sustainable, and not the. and. busy and, and, and i think we take it from that, i mean sort, and it's looking to have to engage with this. yeah. as you say, tell me that there is a level of human suffering that is catastrophic and gaza. and it's no exaggeration say that this is a, a, an incredible escalation of attacks we are seeing now on the gaza strip. even by the standards of this conflicts. we are seeing
1:31 pm
a very clear escalation against gaza by land and sea. and so just to look at what we are following the development, we are following over the past couple of hours. is there any forces of launched arabs in the vicinity of the locks the hospital in darrow bala, people has been killed and wounded. we know that that many ambulances have been arriving at the hospital with the wounded. so this is the area around the alex, the hospital, and central gaza, which is one of the few remaining facilities in gauze that because the health system that hospitals have been attacked. and are no longer running a of a completely collapse and unable to continue treating people. so we have seen a number of arabs in the area around this hospital with our reports. the endo holder is saying that there is a massive influx of patients. this hospital, this is a hospital that was already 3 times over its capacity. the director of the hospital,
1:32 pm
the is the hospital itself is issued several urgent warnings saying that they would not be able to carry on treating people. not just because of a shortage of supplies and medicines coming into the strip because the land crossings have been close. there is a siege on garza so you know, a convoy trucks waiting to move very often they don't. they're not able to cross the border. we've also seen humanitarian work has targeted in this war, and that no guarantees given about vast safety. so that's one thing. but also fuel . nothing can happen without fuel trucks potentially couldn't get supplies to where they all supposed to be. fuel essential for the logistics of vehicles being able to get from one place to another, to transport supplies. but it's also essential for the running of the hospital. and so then the hospital ends up relying on generators and we have seen images of
1:33 pm
hospital workers collecting as you know, the little fuel that they can to keep the generate is going. but, you know, nice sort of a little methods and is that we see them trying to use, i mean, even that means that the generators could potentially be damaged because the generators have a life cycle. and so the generators themselves are not necessarily stable. so there is concern about the hospital being not only 3 times of the capacity, but being unable to operate because of a lack of fuel. also, we're seeing an escalation in rough uh the, the director of the, quite the specialized hospital there is that, that there are corpses in the street and that the medical workers are unable to reach the injured people there. and then a, an, an escalation of activity and i'll say dot,
1:34 pm
i'll say rock is in northern gaza. and so we are seeing now the military attacks in northern central and southern gaza by land air and sea. and it has to be said that these are areas that have been designated safe son's. know we are seeing attacks on areas that it designated as safe stones via these res. so we are seeing symbol pena's attacks in northern gaza on the site out in data by the in the center. and then also in rafa which is in the south. and that we have had a statement from these, right, the ministry. now they say that with regards to and the site aut, which is in northern gaza, that they are targeting military infrastructure that they are targeting have mass military infrastructure. that is the reason they give. but what we have seen in
1:35 pm
recent days and weeks is a focus, an intensification of attacks on 3 specific refugee camps and got in in, in and around garza. so in the se, dot, which is, is the largest refugee count. we see that in the knolls, we're also seeing attacks on over the age of ozzy, these accounts for displace people. and as we've been hearing from, i guess, tyler and also from our forces in the field in causes population. now, at least a 1000000 people have been displaced and they've not just been displaced, wants to multiple times. the initial stages of these reigning operation focusing on northern gaza. they will focusing on northern calls are not forced much of the population, hundreds of thousands of people to move into the center and then into hon. eunice into the south and rough. uh, but uh, really the, uh, the operation, the offensive in rough. uh, i mean,
1:36 pm
occupation of pots of rough um and the effect that that had on the area then forced thousands of palestinians back into the central base of garza. and that's where right now is uh the alex hospital in central garza where even in the area around the hospital itself. we see uh that that has been raids uh, in right in the area around hospital itself, which would be terrifying for the thousands of people who are being treated inside the hospital but also for their families. because this is a place where many people take refuge on con, joins us now. he is reporting from amman in jordan and long what can you tell us a well, we've got a statement now from the israeli army. and these really police and this is read
1:37 pm
these, i say they say this morning on such as a, a joint idea how a site and his reading police a complex special day time operation in the throughout full is really hostages. were rescue. they going to name those that were rescued. they say they were cap kidnapped by the m. s. terrorist organization from the nerve of music festival. on october 7th, they were rescued by the i f. the idea of the ice and the amount of forces in 2 separate locations in the heart of missouri. they say they're in good medical condition and they've been transferred to a she about tell her sure, i'm a medical center and then they go with cyber security forces will make every effort to bring those has to dislike. so we now know the reason for this operation that is taking place by a land and sea. initially, the statement that they gave said they were getting off the terrorist infrastructure. but then from funding that they've managed to rescue 4 of those captives alive and the transfer them to a local hospital. but this operation is still continue. it's still ongoing. the
1:38 pm
palestinians have been told to evacuate the actual hospital, but there's no way for them to go. the pictures that we're seeing, it's very, very difficult to square that with the statement coming from these. right. and uh, so uh, they go to terrorist infrastructure, there will simply fall to many civilians arriving at that hospital in front of a very always and tell me i'm on what is the reaction, i guess both public and political likely to be to the these for hostages now being rescued from gaza. this is going to be a big public diplomacy waiting for the prime minister benjamin netanyahu expect a statement to come. a video statement is only what he does congratulating the i'll be honest on an operation. well done, promising that they'll get more home. remember, departments has been under a tremendous amount of pressure from the hostages families for him. in fact, they've come out and said that they don't think that he is as serious about getting
1:39 pm
. so hostages out. so who use this as a way of trying to tell the family for him that he's doing as much as he can. but a ceasefire is what's needed, say the hostages. finally 4, we are nowhere near that kind of sci fi. so this is something that he is going to be talking about and very loudly these very minute truthful spoke about this very loudly as well as an operation that was successful. they were mentioned, the palestinians that were mentioned, the palestinian civilians. they'll just say that this was terraced infrastructure and an operation to get to those hostages out. and that's the kind of language that was the way that this helps farming and stuff. benjamin netanyahu remains. we seem to still a lot of anger out in the streets. we are expecting a very large demonstration to take place this evening in a previous demonstrations to go, but we're expecting about 120000 people to come out into the streets asking for the problem. is that to cool for an early election,
1:40 pm
they'll be criticizing him for not doing enough to get the hostages out. so this, the timing of this is going to be very key for him. well, so as protest the going on, he will in all likelihood issue that statement. thank you very much and well, i'm kind of pushing to this room online. and the reason we are there is because the cabinets, the government have benjamin netanyahu, his band out there from a forcing inside as well. and so we continue to follow the story from neighboring jordan. instead, i want to take you now back to gaza and speak to and a who that a who's in data all by law. you are in central, gaza, and a tell us, tell me exactly your location where you are and what is happening around you. okay, so the just let me 1st give you a very quick update that our team managed to leave the hospital right now. that's why we're doing photos. and it was a very hectic and horrifying. 3 hours the past 2 hours were crazy. there were
1:41 pm
intense bombing everywhere. isn't me there? are your talking about there is but i had my god being played off from the western to the north, south west in all areas, all we heard was explosions and the i'm getting says tyrants bringing injuries and also civilians bringing injuries. and donkey cart, there were a mazda of number of people killed, most of number of people injured and, and we, we really didn't realize what was going on because it was intense. and then a huge amounts of explosion happened in a hospital not inside, but very close to it. it was a house that was targeted and then more injuries started coming in to help the all across the so we know that's what locks losses. and it has been all ready overlap with patients and injuries. and it was cost and there was no pays for new injuries . i went inside the hallway in the department. people were on the floor on the
1:42 pm
ground. the medics, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're hurrying between every, every patient on every injured call. again, please trying to give the medical treatment and medication for a b one. but unfortunately, the number of patients an injury, was mazda, more explosions, happen, more bombardment was going on. and most of the injuries came from on this a rough area. i talked to people who were injured. they said that they woke up on very intense, are kindly retiring. and they said, but they found that a fire was a trappings um and surrounding their houses. they, it was a miracle house, they reached the hospital and they are getting treatment draco. but now the, is there any forces tanks are station near the la head being at near a break. and if i brought the area and, and, and all of these people are already displays, they were displaced from rocha and of
1:43 pm
a month ago when the is ready for this type of the military operation there. and we're talking about the middle area is a very small area that has more than 1000000 people. now those people thought that this area was the significance as safe as the is there any courses at the ask them to to, to evaluate the area. the amount of air strikes and bombardment was massive and crazy at all night long people said that they were not able to sleep from the amount of our talent re sending and just continued to this hour till this moment. there are people being injured, transferred to the hospital and medics are saying that some people came with very severe critical injuries. other people said that most of the injuries are in the lower names and they're in risk of computation. my dicks are telling us that there is no medical supplies because the roof of crossing has been closed for
1:44 pm
2 weeks at court for more than a month now. sorry. and. and there has been some surgery going on without any. and sceptics and it's crazy. it's a chaos in the hospital, and there has been a warning for one of the journalists saying that there is still a tent that is going to be targeted by that is very to is. so people, it is for more than 8 months now are homeless. they don't not know where to go, but it's not only the courtyard of the hospital, but also they talking about the surroundings where even the sidewalks are for filled with people. i mean, these are really hellish scenes that you are describing to us and that i think is very difficult for someone who has not been inside gone. and not least in a situation like this. very difficult to imagine that you have an attacks by land, air, and sea on the area. and then you have this hospital which is like one small
1:45 pm
haven in a c all in, in a, in, in a situation where there is near constant bombardment and attacks in the norman central and southern parts on gauze. but this hospital is treating patients some 8000 people inside the hospital, including the families who been taking refuge that because people have been displaced so many times. they have no way to go. now you have a significant escalation in attacks and you are saying that there is a massive influx of patients who have arrived. ambulance is a continuing to arrive. women and children are among the casualties. the hospital is struggling to treat people. they will already 3 times of a capacity before the attacks of today and over the past few days. you have people who require amputations. there is not the anesthetic to do these amputations
1:46 pm
properly, so they will be amputated. they will now have to lose their limbs without any sort of a anesthetic on medicine to treat them. people aligned on the floor of the hospital that line in the court yard. and it's just a, it's just chaos over there is and, and it's very good is going to imagine the pressure that must be on medical was well ready, physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausted that on now having to also try and do that jobs in, in the, in the situation we see now, or do you know what, what was the most horrifying scene i saw today is the mother looking for her children crying and searching for her babies. because this is not only a hospital, this has been a shelter for these children. and these families,
1:47 pm
they have been playing a and it's very hard. i saw people searching for walk through striving for food. when the bombardment starts with intensifying, whether it's very looking for the children, they were very scarce. they wanted to hide them. any place makes them to i think what they're telling. one woman told me where's that i think my sons are now. there's no safe and, and she was crying and searching for her children. are there other palestinian who were already in syria and an inside the house that there were trying to sneak so people would there's that there might be called back from the hospice and evacuating them. but everyone must, i need to know where we go. they do not have any place to go. they do not have any place to go. the only place that palestinians can go right now is nowhere because work for the me, the area there is no access to the north. and there's also no access to the south because the is there any monetary operations enough?
1:48 pm
i think in the 1st through the western part of the concept and, and, and this k uh, is, is, is expecting everyone the methics, the journey and met the people seeking refuge, the people surrounding the hospital. and, and people are always seeing a new, a talk on another hospital in the cause. sure. we saw a tax on the hospitalization this just the hospital uncommitted run on on on. i'm not sure hospitals we saw these small greys in those hospital and people are hearing another episode of a mass graveyard of another of an invasion, another hospice. and we know that some of the hospital is one of the only hospital bill functioning. and it's from the lifeline of hundreds of palestinians that are currently having their kidney. they all just treatments that are having their, their, their surgeries there. and all of these medications are still going on and their
1:49 pm
own also a couple of occasions from knoxville. okay. there's a delegation from my staff and there has been a lot of money because, or the trying to have the low code in the cause of fit to help give medical treatment to the hospital patients because of the crossing has been closed . and no one of these college students injured and in their critical situation are able to travel abroad, but now the hospital is parked. i went into the emergency department. i all i saw was hi craig, because people are laying on the floor bleeding. blood was everywhere. at this, not a good was everywhere. people were trying to look for doctors to, to search for doctors. but the number of doctors is very easy to use at
1:50 pm
a compared with the new it's number of injury policy. and i saw people injured in their legs and there had been there, have those this little baby girl, the twins out of the get it and said, oh, look, covering her body. these scenes haven't been happening once again. but every time this happens again, it feels like as this is the 1st time we're seeing this, it was very hard to see the children searching for their families, their, their, for their mothers. their father is looking for them, trying to hide the, the amount of air strikes and the amount of time they were telling surrounding the hospital with markets and parents who this coined more i'm gonna say is coming and transferring more people. but more people are being displaced like on are being homeless again, and there is nowhere for these people to go to. we're talking about
1:51 pm
a 1000000 of people that evacuated from the far to the middle area in the past month. thank you so much and i appreciate it at hen data for jerry reporting to us and thank you and we will talk to you a little bit later for now and out of literary thank you. and now i have would need talk to atanya hodge has done a pediatric intensive care physician with gauze and medic, voices. she watched him gauze with the eye like sound spittle, and joins us now from run. perhaps was touching on the significance of this facility because we were on gauze as left as destroyed many and most hospitals in gauze, uh as and was saying the alex hospital is badly functioning with supplies of medicine. fuel is running out and they were already dealing with a massive overflow of patients. yet just the fact that it's able to remain open is
1:52 pm
extremely important. what would it mean for the people of gauze, the if the alex the hospital, what to, to suffer a complete breakdown i, i'm struggling to even i'm struggling to eat tea to even process the fact that this is happening right now. and has happens repeatedly systematically as just a mazda document has one at and t c at every single hospital that have all the lifelines i just heard your corresponded right now talking about and also being a lifeline. why is that not even a lifeline. it's one of the smaller hospitals in gaza. it is completely taken over it because of health care system because every of their major hospital has been destroyed. so even the fact that its functioning the way its functioning right now, it needs to be seen in the context of the fact that it is uh,
1:53 pm
taking the place of what should be a quite ordinary center when it's not. it is a small hospital and at the moment it's functioning as causes main hospital. when i was there a couple months ago, it was jam packed with patients everywhere. cory door staircases and we were operating 247. the operating rooms were expanded, the maternity ward was taken over like trauma patients. every police small hospital was taking over by trauma patients. and what we've been hearing in the last 48 hours. and i want to show the testimonies from a colleagues that i've been corresponding with their yesterday and today, but they are her rick, they're describing and i quotes about 20 minutes ago, i received the message for one of my colleagues in the emergency department saying at dr. sonya, it's a full blown full blown comprehensive genocide. they are
1:54 pm
a foaming at the middle area of gaza. he's he kept repeating the word mastic for massacre massacre over and over again. and then he sent me videos from their association of area of the emergency department. and it is a slaughter house. there is blood everywhere. there are many people missing extremities. it was so her effect. i have to look away from the video. that is the video i received just now my other colleagues as a senior in the emergency department as well as senior physician, sent me a few messages saying it was complete chaos. today's the worst day they've had so far, which says a lot. because just 2 days ago, they received the casualties from the massacre on the honor of school. and at the time they received over a 170 patients, a trauma patients. and one goal that is a mass casualty that no hospital in the world would be able to cope with well and a $170.00 mass casualties multiple with multiple applications. we had reports of
1:55 pm
a pregnant woman whose abdomen had had to add to amputations, was her right arm and right leg and her out for her domingos vault open. they could see the fetus inside her out today. another charge just tonight is dramatically after giving me, forgive me for interrupting you. dr. tania, just don't just want to be up. so you care about this because, you know, talk about series of attacks that are happening today, including around the alex hospital right now. but the accounts that you are giving us are of the scenes and the cases that you witnessed during your deal. so no, so this, these are the cases in the last 48 hours and also so. so i'm in communication with my colleagues who i worked with their emergency departments, stuff pediatric stuff and i see you stuff so too. so we, we correspond regularly. so just to just take a psychiatrist through this because you are giving us really important information
1:56 pm
. you were saying a 170 casualties, a woman who's so this abdomen was, was below. oh, nice thing. you were saying. i don't want to put words in your mouth, but just tell me, tell me what they have been saying to you. so this was 2 days ago, this was after the honor of school was barnes and i received multiple accounts from different providers in the emergency department describing the casualties that came in that day. i, including the children, was multiple extremities blown off. a pregnant woman whose abdomen was blowed open and the fetus was exposed. she also had to have the patience a actual old ring with multiple amputated limbs. one with multiple advocated lives, ultimately succumb to injuries and died. and they, they described $4040.00 martyrs and about a $170.00 injured or right. and this was 2 days ago today. i don't have numbers,
1:57 pm
i just have forensic messages, a short chaos in the last hour. i'm looking at them right now. one of them is from a nurse, he sent me a video, there's blood everywhere, and there were substitutionary other patients while on the floor multiple was missing extremities. and it just, it's chaos. and with that, he recorded several audio of us to just say it's a massacre. it's a massacre. he said that his family's ted had been shot at and that they, he's unable to communicate with his family anymore, who have been sheltering in attempts near the hospital after their homeless font. another colleague of mine who's a senior doctor in the emergency department sent me a message. i want us to be 20 minutes ago. 1253. it's 1257. here's a 40 minute minutes ago saying that they had received stressed to evacuate. the tenants that were around the hospital, the physicians and health care stuff were still besieged and working inside the
1:58 pm
emergency department. so they received many martyrs, an injury that they're the injured in the hospital and in the streets around around the hospital. but that the, i'm just translating directly as i'm reading like that the ambulances are unable to get to, to all of these places. and then he says, the situation is very bad. it is one of the worst days in this hospital that got off the hospital. and then he said, uh, we're very grateful that you're trying to, i'm reading this is texting as we speak, that you're able to uh, share this uh, this, uh, sort of this image or this. what's going on right now? um, so this had been bad when i was there, the hospital was completely overwhelmed. so i can't imagine what they mean when they say this is significantly worse and pills in comparison to what it was like when we were there. so i think i see what i'm most shocked about,
1:59 pm
and i, i hope your viewers can understand this. and i hope you're reached goes further than those who are already know what's going on. because i cannot fathom that somebody could understand what is going on and not be doing everything in their power to make it stop. it is an outrage. the the global community should be outraged. every single hospital in the gaza strip has been targeted one way or another. we have multiple hospitals or mass greeks of civilians. are patients of health care providers are being found in the parentheses. and now we're talking about one of the last remaining health care facilities and all of the gaza strip in the area that people were told the fleet to wander off of the previous safe area. was barnes people were told the fleet to the unless you and do
2:00 pm
the areas. these are the areas that this hospital serves. this is the new safe sold, which is a complete forest. there is no such thing as us used on. every humanitarian organization has been trying to express thoughts and every independent body has been trying to express that. and it's, it's mute. it goes new to the global powers that be the american politicians who have demonstrated that there is not a single red line. that is real, can cross no matter how atrocious that will make the us say enough as well. it is with a, a, a disgrace. so this is, this is that, thank you very much talk to and i signed for joining us. i do appreciate it to get that insight from you on the accounts that you mentioned, not just of your time at the alex hospital in central garza a few months ago. but what you'll colleagues a telling you now they are describing heather scenes of patients being treated.
