12:01 pm
businesses under water. the, the israeli army has attacked a tempting camp, meant in southern gaza in what was described by israel as a safe area. at least 40 palestinians were killed in dozens injured in the strikes on, on the wasi. the victims were displaced, palestinians seeking refuge from israel's relentless bombardment. israel's military says it targeted a how mos command center i'm us call that claim quote, a blatant lie. stephanie decker reports. daylight gives you a sense of the power that came from the air. 7 israel says it targeted various how much fuel commanders, but what that means is that israel targeted account for the internally displaced their tar pulling tents, no protection against israel's military. might israel dean this a safe. so the,
12:02 pm
the harlem was, they told us to flee to out in the washington, we believed them and came to con eunice. we moved our belongings as you can see. we were sleeping safely with our children, the 1230 at night. we heard miss files around 6 of them. i don't know. i don't know what they hit children and women people flew, but it's an indescribable feeling. body parts of it. we took our children from under the sun, 11 months into this war. israel does what it wants. there is no accountability, no real pressure from the international community. palestinian lives seemingly don't matter unless you have a guy, a highly hesitant. we came here to check people and we saw holes tents buried under the sand. we can no longer see the tents. look where are they? everything is buried. rescuers came and they started pulling some out, but others are still missing. they have nothing to do with resistance or anything, but they are unarmed people. this is just another day stephanie decker, which is 0,
12:03 pm
and another is really strikes this one and does the city has killed at least 5 palestinians. the bomb struck a food store where people were gathering and now show a square. at least 40000 people have been killed and nearly 95000 injures since the war started in october. houses here as honey ma, what is in there about i'm central gaza. honey is good to talk to you this morning . israel says that the reported death total of that strike on the tent camp. the 10 city of alma wasi is exaggerated, are reporting is the dozens of people have been killed in the vicinity of 40 people killed. what do you know? so this is not the 1st time we're here. these really military talking about an exaggeration of the figure is what we have been covering so far for the past 11 months of the year of the genocide of the war is a conservative reading of the figure is the actual figures are far more shocking. we still looking at people are still on the rebels for the that the vast majority
12:04 pm
of areas in northern part of garza and the central area and destroyed the on and hon. unit city. but when we, when we talk about 40 people here, these are the people are being collected identified by family members, surviving family members by the paramedics, by the civil defense, the crew members that this is again, a conservative reading of the actual figure. there are still those who are missing and buried under pile of ties of dirt. sense that caused by the massive explosion caused by the uh, the bunker buster bonds that were dropped on a large lisa in the area. that is housing can see if a 10 side board displays palestinians, you know, last week evacuation don't. there's really another 3 talking about the use of the precise i munition, these artists, laser directed bonds to target wherever they are are after. but when you look at the casual season, this year, a number of casualty caused by these bonds,
12:05 pm
it's very contradictory. there's no way that this is part of the collateral damage . when you use for its size weapons, do you know exactly who are you targeting and who are you are after that we looked at 40 people killed at once and there is still more close to half the number. my thing under posit rubble, there is no way that this is an exaggeration. this is an actual thing that is happening and it's not the 1st time it happened a months ago, almost when there's really monetary targeted, the same exact area and loss evacuation don't. would it say that they were targeted, or cassandra gates commander going at me initially through 5 people and the number gift to grow and until we hit a 100 people, mostly women and children. and that's been confirmed by health facilities. and tanya and a city and field hospitals who are operated and managed by merely medical admissions of outside of dogs, off of the gaza strip, be the talk about exaggeration. it's not really proven on the ground this. these
12:06 pm
are actual people who are dying of the fact that is brought up by this really many, very many times. it shows that how affinity in life did not matter to those really military. they're just the figures for them as long as the war continues to raise a tiny mass load reporting, some narrow balance, central, gaza. thank you very much for laying out all of that. i want to address it with a bill that are an associate professor of history at georgetown university here in guitar. so thank you for, for joining us on this topic. this is a constant refrain from israel, right? we are reporting daily on the number of palestinians who are killed and very frequently. israel will say, well, actually the death toll this being reported is not accurate. number one, and number 2, we were aiming for senior hamas biggers as if, you know, as if that, excuse the number of people who are being killed. right. i mean, i think this is part and parcel of committing genocide is, is an attempt to downplay the casualty. figures and attempt to deny them an attempt
12:07 pm
to obscure the reality of what's happening on the ground that this goes hand in hand with the scale of violence that's being perpetrated against palestinians for the last 11 months. and so we've seen that time and again, if anything, i think you know what we're constantly seeing and in a lot of the official news reporting is a vast under count. we're seeing more and more health experts, both inside palestine. doctors has gone into guys that have come out as well as health experts who have studied this question for decades and what they're estimating as far higher that we, we are actually talking about hundreds of thousands of casualties in, in guys over the last 11 months. and not the $40000.00 that's being reported right now. you know, i'm glad you're mentioning that because the, the whole controversy around the death toll is a precise number of people who are being killed and injured israel, obviously, fort that aggressively. and in the earlier weeks and months of the war, there were some countries that sort of cited with israel on that same what we don't know about the numbers. we don't hear any of those voices anymore. other than
12:08 pm
israel, there really isn't anyone left to to debate those numbers. and as we say, what i keep hearing is that if anything, it's an underestimate. absolutely, i mean, you know, again, when we think about the amount of munitions that have been used, we've never seen anything on the scale and modern history. really, you know, this is even on arrival in what we saw in the 2nd world war. when we saw the entire city is being fire bonded destroyed. except here, you're doing it and much more heavily concentrated space where people have know where to go, where you're talking about a space with 2300000 people that was already the most densely populated space in the world prior to all of this. and so in that sense it's, it's quite logical to, to expect and to assume that given the sheer amount of, of munitions that have been used to bombing campaigns, the way that people have been shifting from space to space, going from north to south being promised of you know, safety in many of these areas being concentrated on the beach is intense and still being found by is really missiles and bonds speaks to i think
12:09 pm
a level of opportunity that we've never seen before as well. and the fact that as you continue to do this without facing any kind of rep precautions, so even as those states, as you mentioned, are not disputing the figures, but they're certainly not condemning this or taking any action whatsoever to rein in. you know, what is essentially a genocidal campaign that's being wage by israel right now. is there really to is really arguments that are, that are put forward. one is with the numbers that you're reporting or not accurate . the other is, oh, but we were, we were striking, we were targeting a come us figure. now often we don't actually get proof of that. but even beyond that question, let's assume that they are and that they were, even in this particular instance, it in international law. it is pretty clear that you can't just because you are targeting a a just because the target is considered legitimate under international law, which it can be doesn't actually give an army the right to kill dozens of civilians in order to get at that one person that's right, and i think again,
12:10 pm
it's interesting to see when these arguments are actually trotted out to justify some of the worst atrocities that have happened. so let's think back, for instance, to the very 1st assault on a hospital and the fact that this was an argument that was used if this was somehow housing an underground command center for her mouse. and yet of course, none of that was ever proven right. that in the end, all of these, these claims are never actually proven with any meaningful evidence. but yet what happens after that every single hospital has since been targeted? so this is also about legitimizing certain atrocities, war crimes, not just once or twice, but then it actually making it standard practice. and so as a result, every single school has been targeted you when facilities are being targeted. soup, kitchens and, and food distribution centers are being targeted hospitals, of course, beyond even just the bombings of hospitals, the invasions of hospitals, the, the kidnapping of medical workers to torture. all of the kinds of reporting that we're seeing about all of the massive numbers of atrocities,
12:11 pm
big and small that are, that are taking place. i think in some ways speaks to the idea that this, this goes far beyond the kinds of claims and justifications that is real, is using. and it really ultimately has to shift back to this broader narrative. right, that we've seen, even even un officials have have concluded that this has a genocide award, that this is a campaign of extermination and ethnic cleansing. and this requires a far more serious effort. first, acknowledging that this is what's happening and then going beyond that in terms of bringing it to an end. yeah. well, and israel, as we will know, is on trial for genocide at the hague. that probably won't be decided. there probably won't be a verdict on that. for a couple of years now, but it's, it's in terms of their targets, it's really almost easier to think of it in the negative that there isn't anything or any place or any kind of person that actually hasn't been targeted in the almost one year that this war has gone on a delivery and thank you very much for your perspective on that this morning. a visit when has started as polio vaccination campaign in the northern part of the
12:12 pm
gaza strip. this comes a day after is really forces stopped to convoy traveling to northern gauze as part of admission. the head of the u. n. agency for palestinian refugees said employees were stopped at gunpoint despite prior coordination with the is really military. israel claims that there were palestinians suspects in the convoy. the un says it's cars were heavily damaged by is really bulldozers and is really military is continuing its raid across the occupied west bank because the army stormed the haitian refugee camp south of bethlehem. at least 3 palestinians were detained after their homes were rated. the only land crossing between jordan and the occupied west bank has reopened. after a 2 day closure hate was shut down. following the killing of 3 is really guards. on sunday. hundreds of palestinians were stranded near the crossing this from the occupied west bank side. it's now reopened for civilian traffic, only not yet for commercial goods, houses or is homed us. a hoot has more from the jordanian side of the border as
12:13 pm
well as you can see behind me the passengers are now coming and going from the king . hussein border crossing and on the other side these really controlled alan b crossing. it was shuddered for 2 days after directives from is really security officials and reopened only when their security measures were implemented and put in place that according to these really airport and port authority, who controls all of the land crossing set of chairs with jordan. there's still no word exactly on when commercial traffic will be allowed in windows. trucks will be allowed into the other side of the border. and that's perhaps because these really are still working on directives for securities and working on putting new measures into place. and remember, this closure had happened after a shooting took place that killed the 3 is really guards. on the other side, the jordanian interior ministry conducting an investigation into the matter identifying the shooter as a jordanian national, who acted alone. but for thousands of palestinians on this side of the border,
12:14 pm
they were rendered stranded because there was no other crossing for them to go to the one in, in the north and in the south have also been reopened. the russians says, one person is dead after ukraine launched a drone attack on moscow and several other regions. the russian officials say more than 70 were shot down. the governor of brians regions said air raid alerts were activated in many areas. one man was killed when the remains of a down drone hit, a residential building southeast of moscow. you're shovel oliver brings us more from moscow. and according to the russian defense ministry, around $144.00 across the type drones, a talked russians have
12:15 pm
a treat. uh, overnight sales of 10. but the 10th a menu that were intercepted over the border regions of rounds course belgrade, as well as colored guy, the wrong engine oil lip. and about 20 over the most crow region. and in the morning, one of the drones actually crashed into a multi store residential building and the safety of and square some, such 5 full. so can lead me to associates for mosca. um and uh as far as started uh between the 11 sense 12 floors and uh the 2nd floor and also crashed and exploded into another multi story building as well. and as a result of dont attack that and drummond score us a full say 6 year old woman died and that 12 more people were injured. 2 of them have been taken to hospital and that in critical condition. right now, traffic and around most uh uh, is extremely slow. uh, several most pools was suspended many planes,
12:16 pm
onregional school where redirected to, to another city to other states has rather a tell tons of f hills. and um, right now we're getting reports. that's all the ad pool uh, working normally because all the restrictions have been lifted at the moment, but the situation remains quite quite 10. so i should say russian authorities of course, can some of these kind of options and find the bye bye ukraine. i, as they say, because they say there's war, you printing, you are these dots. um, they say that's a russian defense system works. good. russian needs a, move them to install them all over the place. they actually do not talk about the reasons they say that then no going to as stop the special ministry operations. because obviously chris could have recreate, takes over the special and show peroration in ukraine. say that that's the main
12:17 pm
reason. also what's going on in russia. know just the most and most could region, but in a be a border regions and in course could in particular because as remember that the ukranian full says uh uh and to the coast region a while ago, the russian investigators, to me to have classified this must have a talk as a terrorist ox and they opened a criminal case of terrorism due to that time by the ukrainian friends. and once again it happened natal only and not just of the most good most for region, but. 6 in over number of russian regions as well today is, are heading to the polls to choose members of parliament from 25 political parties . and several coalitions. voting is under way against the backdrop of the war and gaza that has impacted jordan's economy. the election is the 1st since reforms in 2020, to increase the number of seats in the lower house. the new laws aimed to get political
12:18 pm
parties a bigger role in the countries semi constitutional monarchy houses here as michael apple is in the capital m on. so michael jordan is modernizing as you have previously explained, its political system. and these parliamentary elections today are part of that. what's, what's the broad goal here? in a nutshell, it's too broad in political representation to make the system more inclusive to many people have signed out too much. i think the, the effects of a 30 percent turn on to the 2020 election. it resulted in, in the recognition that, that needs to be a shift in the fundamental policies of parliament. if the country is going to be a parliamentary monarchy, as its constitution says, people need need to feel invested. they need to feel that they have a voice. so this 2021 more nice ation committee had 92 members from
12:19 pm
a very broad spectrum of society from political parties, independent candidates, academics. and they came out with a number of, of suggestions, recommendations which would ultimately sign into law that you need to you by your increase, the role of that political parties play in the country, political parties. why? because they have agendas that they have a program that it's about the collective thinking instead of the individual. so in the past, parliament has been, has been great key influenced by influential family members from certain tribes. this is a legacy for jordan simply can't get away from but as part of trying to make the system as inclusive as possible. i mean, not any talking about political parties, women, young jordanians, people with disabilities. they also think cortez now built into the system of michael apple reporting from amman in jordan. thank you very much,
