7:03 pm
are overwhelmed. the health industry has still staff to postpone surgeries unless they're in emergency hospitals. we're already struggling to treat thousands of people interested in last week. simple changes explosions of pagers and walkie talkies eliminates health minister says most of the injured from the past 2 days have been civilians who have the headphones. this honestly contradicts all the lines that these right enemy has said that they target militants in all honesty. and unfortunately, we have seen that the majority on, if not on the phone due to the a text from residents who are in the hundreds of doors of already has more on this most recent attack. and they route to this attack took place is that they will bury area of da here, the southern suburb of a route which we know is a strong hold of hezbollah. and according to israel, that we're targeting a specific commander within hezbollah, that we don't have any confirmation of
7:04 pm
a name as of yet from either israel or has. well i, we will have to wait for an official statement from as well as to whether or not they have lost any more members during this attack. but we've seen some very, very gruesome images of body parts being displayed across cars that were part of this impact zone after the strikes. so we do expect to this for this effort to clean up the area to take quite a while and that, that soul to climb. of course we have to remember, this is coming at a very, very tense time here and 11 on this is not the 1st time israel has carried out this kind of an attack. there was an attempted assassination, also in the same area of a root of southern bay roads a r yesterday, as well as the attack that was carried out on friday. well, here's the scope of is really a tax across parts of lebanon. all these red dots here are, is really a tax. the operation expanded from the south into the back of valley for the 2nd time in a week. these really military targeted
7:05 pm
b route southern suburb of da here has below, has responded by firing a barrage of rockets targeting military installations in northern israel. meanwhile, as belies fired rockets into northern israel. and the group says that it's targeted military bases, airfields and, and explosives. factory 60 kilometers from the border. israel's military says it's shot down most of those rockets, ocean 0 stephanie deckers live in amman. jordan, reminder, same one is always were in amman, covering is really affairs because the is really government has banned l 0 for reporting. insight, israel stephanie, what is israel saying today about what it's doing? 11 on, i guess i'll just pick up on what door. so was reporting there we have in the last hour or so how to statement from these really are me and this is in reference to that strike in the salt as be due to in doc. yeah. these are, i'm a, is really, are me saying he for him mohammed base see the come under as well as miss alden
7:06 pm
rocket force was what the, these ready for me is quoting, eliminated by and is really air force air strike in be root. now we haven't had any confirmation from has by law. uh, but if this is to be confirmed by as well, indian, the is where the army start using that they manage to kill him. it is another blow to the senior leadership of has all of these raise or say that the 2 main power channels of hezbollah. one is the red one, force. these are ready to come under units that are trained to infiltrate israel. and you've seen that in the past, they've been taking out various members of its leadership. the 2nd arm is the messiah and look at a component which again, over the last 2 days, and see israel target those according to them. and also now if this is indeed confirmed by husband are taking out the commander of the rocket unit just briefly. so as we're all saying around 300 rockets, we're fired from hezbollah, into israel,
7:07 pm
as well as saying and targeted around 15 military installations inside is relative because of israel's very tight military censorship. and that also affects what people can upload to x. for example, you're not seeing the social media, but in terms of the amount that you would expect with the amount of rocket fire that we know is coming into northern israel. so we don't have a good indication of how much damage of bullet has managed to do on these major decisions, but we do understand the result. stephanie, before i let you go, i wonder if israel is signaling at all. you know, what is, what are the next steps for them militarily speaking and level of what we heard from the army chief of staff today heard saturday, he said that they're not going to give his bullet any breathing space if they're going to continue and even said that they were gonna escalate the strikes today. we've also heard from these really prime minister,
7:08 pm
these really if your machine has been in overload the last 2 days from the army, from the political echelons, the ministry echelons saying that they are executing what is wrong, always says, is self defense. the aim is the big question mark. one is enough enough. they want has paula to retreat to the tiny wood river and they say they want to change the balance of power in the region. that is very complicated, but certainly we are at an impasse. we are at a dangerous time, but yes, at the moment the message from these radius is that they are going to continue stephanie decker reporting from amman. jordan, thank you very much, stephanie. in addition to it's offensive in what israel calls the north meaning, living on the is really military has not stopped bombarding gaza attacks on the central and southern parts of this trip have killed at least $33.00 people since early tuesday, 6 palestinians were killed in airstrikes near the l out of hospital and on the sierra doctors and central guys that are treating
7:09 pm
a number of injured people from multiple strikes sites including children attacks on homes and hun, eunice have killed another 7 people. it also is there is any man who joins us live from outside locks the hospital in darrow butler. we can see this of the yeah, the, the ambulance just behind you, honey. i want to ask you, israel says that essentially it is. it has slowed down in gaza and is now focusing on the north. have you noticed any difference in a, in what israel has been doing in the gaza strip over the last say last week or so? yes. well, the, quite the contrary is thoroughly, we haven't seen any significant change on, on how this floor is being conducted. and from the very beginning, it has been large, new one sided dominated by these very monetary, the ones that are why we hear about the grid and military is slowing down in one area or others. but what we're seeing on the ground here is completely the opposite
7:10 pm
. a surgeon via talk, despite the distraction created by the ongoing narrative that the are busy in the northern a bronze and some people are like 11 on the are still bombing the across the gaza strip. what we see, and unfortunately within the past few hours, it talk to them, they'll try it out. review thompson earlier hours on a bridge, refugee government, the eastern part of this been from area are they are hours almost that are the hours of this morning and on you and event last night or talk. it have already killed $33.00 people in just within the past half an hour. we have we receive a confirmation of from the hospital where the majority of the cost will be the from the attack on a residential home. and then and that have arrived on out of the hospital, how driving to 11 people done that, that includes the 4 children who were transferred to all of the hospitals age and wearing critical conditions. and they were hoping in the operating theatre,
7:11 pm
they could, they could do fine to save them, but unfortunately there's nothing less than the hospital here in terms of medical care to be provided. this is the after mathis of what we're seeing. 7 more people were killed that early are towers in han units in the overnight a tax and the early hours of this morning. any narrative about these later, not the talks are as low in the uh, the into city of the cox is, is not really what we're seeing on the ground is more concentrated, a tax on residential homes, and particularly we look at families entire families right now. are being a booth rated the a nice for about 2 months and a half right now we're seeing families on daily basis. the, the, the, the, the smallest family that we've seen killed here made off before family members in, on the largest compared to what was it exceeded the 10 or 15. and that's the kind of a talk or how does of attack that we'd see. and right now, and it's an indication of what,
7:12 pm
how these really military is operating right now is targeting the very foundation, the core of how the city and social fabric right now, which is families without it, there is no society left here. honey, you're standing in front of a hospital, what's the situation like in hospitals such as this one, the one that you're in front of as well right now the ambulance vehicles that you see here in the frame of the camera arch are those vehicles are transferred to from of the out of the hospital and they are having those are transferred to this particular hosted out here right now, simply because the hospital does not have the capacity and doesn't have the ability to accommodate a large number of casualties. the huge and what. ready ready injuries has been caused in a grade level of pressure and, and, and, and the grade levels of a stress on the medical is stuff itself here inside the hospital,
7:13 pm
it's hard to talk about medical care what server because there isn't any of it available inside the hospitals. we do walk inside the hospital and speak to doctors the video stop. we speak even to medical admissions, coming from different parts of the world in the united states, from the united kingdom, from canada, and the old describe your, the difficult that is based on daily basis, including surgeons here inside the operating theatre. don't have the ability to intervene and perform the proper searches, and that's what we're seeing for the most part, large number of casualties and fatalities inside the hospitals, simply because of the lack of medical care that does not exist here. are we talking about simple steps that are no longer existing inside this hospital? yeah, honey, thank you very much and we appreciate your composure there when the light went out, that's nothing relative to the importance of the story you're covering, of course so and thanks to your camera that for adjusting on the fly, we'll come back to you later that so i was just, there was honey, my mood reporting from the central part of gaza strip. world leaders. world leaders
7:14 pm
have sounded warnings at the un general assembly about israel's growing conflict in gaza about the occupied west bank and about 11 on its work. he's president blaine's israel for the failure to achieve a ceasefire in god's on the top right on the hardware, supposedly working for a ceasefire in front of the stage. continue to send arms amunition to israel so that it can continue its massacres. in the background. i mean this inconsistency and this is instead of insincerity. look, there's a paper that has been going around back and forth. it seems to me. homeless has repeatedly declared its acceptance of the ceasefire offer. but the history of the government has made it very clear that this is the party that doesn't the one piece are constantly dragging its feet, making a settlement of the dispute much more difficult, almost impossible, and was hoping that we will never accept the force displacement palestinians which
7:15 pm
is a war crime, no country in the region benefits from escalation. we have seen that clearly in the dangers, developments and 11 on over the past few days. this has to stop. for years the, our world has extended a hand to israel through the our peace initiative, offering full recognition, a normalization in exchange for peace, but consecutive is where the government's emboldened by years of impunity have rejected peace and chosen confrontation instead. and joe biden has addressed the general assembly for the final time as us president. he used his speech to renew calls for a ceasefire and gaza. i put for the cutter and egypt to cease fire and hostage
7:16 pm
to, to spend the doors by the un security council. now is the time for the parties of finalizes terms, bring the hostages home. is your security for israel and gods are free of ha, i'm almost script is the suffering. and gotcha. and, and this war has the law unprovoked during the october 7 attack launches rockets. it is almost a year later to many of each side of it is rarely 11 on board or remain displaced. full scale wars, not anyone's interest. the houses here is gabriel elizondo is that you in headquarters in new york. gabriel. what has stood out to you from everything we've heard from you n g a so far? yeah, there's been a lot of speeches so far. there's certainly a lot to take in. but what i take from it so far is one thing. and that
7:17 pm
urgency, the urgency of the moment, and you can really sense that with all of the speeches that we have heard from the heads of states so far, including the secretary general himself, who said the state of the world is unsustainable. we cannot go on like this, that according secretary general, antonio gutierrez. and then you heard from world leaders, we just turned there from president air, the one the king of jordan up to the they were focusing their energies, their speeches directly on the humanitarian catastrophe in gaza. number one, but also who is responsible for it? of course, israel really saying that the speeches were really other thing that the status quote is no longer acceptable. president air due on focusing his entire beginning of his speech on gaza and illegal occupation by israel. and then of course, we've been hearing as well about israel's escalation and attacks on 11 on even the
7:18 pm
us president saying a full scale war and 11 non isn't nobody's interest that according president joe biden. so i think the big takeaway so far is, well, there's a lot going on in this world that it's important. sudan, uh, the war and ukraine. other things, climate change, see rise levels, artificial intelligence. these are all things that are being discussed here and will be discussed. but right now there's really the urgency of the moment. that's my big takeaway. and the urgency is stopping israel's, or on gaza and their continued aggression on 11 on one of the if not highlights at least points of, of focus of every un general assembly is the speech given by the us president. because the us is the world's super power catch up our viewers on what vitamin said and what that speech was this was his last speech as
7:19 pm
president of course, he is a very long decades long history. on the international stage. he knows a lot of the world leaders in the general assembly hall, personally on a very personal level for, for decades now. bite in speech was sort of his is going away speech, if you will, sort of reminiscing about decades of us policy, whether it be towards in his words that old soviet empire or vietnam of decades past. and he is really a man in a different generation. and he, he's, you could really see that in his speech, he would try to really touch on all subject matters. that he could, it was sort of a spin around the globe if you will. of course, the war in russia's war and ukraine certainly is high on the us diplomatic agenda. he mentioned that very high up. uh, also he briefly mentioned sudan, china,
7:20 pm
he did those, mentioned a guy's a said that they do. they're still needs to be a cease fire, as he said dozens of times before. also, as i previously mentioned, saying that it didn't. nobody's benefits for a full scale war in 11 on either. but what the us president did not do, and sometimes what presidents don't say is just as important as what they do say. he did not give any more indications on how he would use his influence, his power to influence israel, to stop the aggression. that was key, so in many ways this was a bite and speech that was for lack of a better word. nothing major knew here. but what he left out, i think you saw from other world leaders filling the gap of re focusing. as i said, the urgency of right now, which is of course garza and now 11 on
7:21 pm
a gabriel. thank you very much for that day is not over where you are. there are going to be more more world leaders addressing that you in ga. they are, as we speak, we'll dip into some of those features and we'll continue coming back to you regularly. thank you very much. it. gabriel also spoke with the un spokesman for the secretary general and he started by asking defenders. i like about israel closing algebra. 0 is office in the occupied west and we will continue to speak out in defense of the process. i think we, as you said, we've expressed our grave concern about what happened to the object 0 bureau in ramallah. but it's also sort of what we see around the world where journalists are kept out of conflict areas. and i think when a free press is kept out of wars of conflict, the world goes blind, we don't know what is happening and it leads to even more suffering for people. so it's something we will continue to push for and to fight for so far. let's get to uh, 11 on the secretary general, clearly watching the situation very closely. who is he in contact with?
7:22 pm
what is his passenger right now related to the situation, israel's bombing 11 on the passengers diplomacy? it's not too late to get to back to diplomacy. he has sent his special ed for a special coordinator from lab and underneath his plus cert. she's been in israel. i think she's leaving a today for talks with these really officials. she's in touch with all sorts of people in the lebanese side, the government has beloved. we have the force commander of the un peacekeeping force in south lebanon, who's also in touch with the parties for the secretary general. it's clear that the people of lebanon and the people of israel and the people of the wire to region, cannot afford a full scale war. normally, in a situation like this staff, the secretary general would pick up the phone and call these really prime minister discuss the issue about is here as bureau being close, discuss the issue of israel bombing lebanon. that hasn't happened. why? well, i think you'd have to ask the other side as is,
7:23 pm
is the secretary joe i'm said to said very directly to the media. he's put it in to call to these really prime minister that call has not been returned. that doesn't mean we don't have relations with, with the israelis. we have senior un officials to meet with the prime minister of israel, notably secret talk, or senior humanitarian coordinator for gaza. but why the secretary journal hasn't spoken to the prime minister? i, it's a question you need to ask these rarely see what more can you and do to protect the 2 monetary ends. what more can the un due to in this blood shift, we will continue to push for diplomacy. we will continue to do what ever we can to advocate for a ceasefire, right for the full humanitarian accessing joseph for the release of the hostages, the israel east and other nationalities who have been kept in tunnels and gaza for over $350.00 days. now we will continue to do that and we will continue our work. we will not have band and all the civilians that we serve,
7:24 pm
whether they're in southern 11 on whether they're in gaza, whether they're in sudan or ukraine, they're united nations remains on the ground. can you ins, humanitarian agencies are struggling to cope with multiple crises around the world that they face critical funding shortages and a range of challenges. and that's complicated by the u ins. failure to end, the long running conflicts. gabriel, as on to has this report from the united nations, whether it is feeding, the hungry, sheltering refugees, lean conflict, or educating children in need of united nations humanitarian agencies are often the only live saving support to millions of people around the world. and the un humanitarians in the field are increasingly under pressure to do more with less in a world with expanding crisis and needs. the security council is close to older of the security council. the 15 member un body tasked with maintaining peace and
7:25 pm
security has failed to end several conflicts. and that leads to ramifications far and wide. and that then creates exacerbated in length and the amount of time that humanitarian crisis is there on the ground. and so i think that is incredibly difficult for workers. you know, you have a lot of burn out. you have people who are putting their all into these situations and trying to help people. and they often don't know when a political revolution to conflict or to a crisis is going to come for you and has numerous humanitarian agencies working in the field. if you examples are the world health organization, the world food program, the un children's fund known as unit and the un high commissioner for refugees in old, we un employees about a 139000 humanitarians that work in over a 130 different countries how do you s or teen the health of u. n. agencies as
7:26 pm
a whole and what more can be done to bolster their effectiveness in the like saving work that they do around the world? well, do an agency that are elsie that they need to be properly funded sunsets, but that they are healthy, that doing the job that working in a very effective what the problem is that you might have in finding the not to follow the metric multiplication of the needs which makes many of our events that a little patients be in an extremely, extremely difficult situation to be able to respond to the domestic problems of the populations they got in contact. because simply they have not enough resources. the role of the un humanitarian agencies in the field is getting harder by the day, but also even more a central that ever gabriel's on do. i'll just need united nations in new york still ahead on elsa 0. so the 1st time japanese fighter jets by a flare is
