6:00 pm
to nations because it tests refuses to implement any of the resolutions. he also said this, gaza is no longer fit for life. that much of it has been completely destroyed. of course, it's not just a civilians has been affected. 40000, at least 40000 people have been killed or the actual number is supposed to be much higher. at least 15000 children of also have been killed in this war, but also have much of cause. the infrastructure has been decimated over the past year. well no, ron bouchard is now, it is our senior political analyst who joins us now from london. we're one you're listening to all of that. what sort of reception do you think my with a bass might get and what, what did you make of the tone that he struck in that speech? well, let's start with the latter part. the 1st part of the speech was quite good, meant that there's and if the system be attacked quite direct to the united states
6:01 pm
for refusing a seat and the police fire, i'm so confused and connect with nice kind of time for doing that that they want the system to counsel, and he also of course, the attack these are in a very, very looks way. but he made a lot of arguments to us, as i said, argumentative is one in the 2nd house that he laid out some sort of a we far work, a vision for what the future should look like the day after. and the overall a best seems to be like a statesman who never changed. for the past 60 years, he's been repeating the same arguments making the same points again and again and again. now, over the past year as is read was, katie is genocide in gaza. and it's what crimes and that was sent. her bus has been missing and with the exception of a few appearances here and there an international forums, a best is nowhere to be seen and felt
6:02 pm
a sign speaking on behalf of or defending the people of guys, or even for that matter, how much his partner for a long time and the one he wants to work on sideways. so he is just kind of a big old man who didn't change his legs and change. he's making very strong arguments. the goose is where i guess off the patient. i guess the hard paid under the same time he's making the same gestures towards is i am talking about peace and security for 2 states, talking about the need for peace and international peace conference, and so on and so forth. and we're one israel, as always said that there needs to be palestinian unity in order for negotiations, or indeed for that to be any prospect of a long time. settlement. how in effectual, how's the president and the p a in general being and sort of countering that narrative. so quite the fiasco. one of the shameless,
6:03 pm
shameful, the things one could say about the personal thought at the and somewhat against how must hasn't been there in capacity to unite over the past 18 years since they have the, the crashes after the elections back in 2006, 2007, the in capacity, it's not just a, but a city and decision not to not. there's a huge pressure on the part of the united states system where some powers and certainly of course, is right for them not to unite. so it's not coincidental, it's not just a sydney and weakness. it's also the jew fault except the day. i know most of the countries are involved in this don't want to find a signal. so united system is not in the united states, do not accept as a partner, do not accept have as an interesting repeat that within, within front of site. and in fact, as soon as this one the election back in 2006,
6:04 pm
they started on the mining gates and in fact they ended up with over towing it from guys. so unity is te, set up at a senior, and it is a crime that they have been in careful with united the last time they met and agreed as they agreed many times. but the last time they did was in china and they didn't reach for middle agreement, if only they would tempt a mentor. unfortunately, again, i say that with the, you know, certain, um, certain, uh, within this, uh, watch the, uh, the charges you know, kind of sign over many decades. is that a best interest to houston capable of changing that you would wish that you would have made a more visionary speech to what guides of what kind of side the west bank has gone through the past year is unprecedented in modern history. this requires more than making system arguments and then you're not quoting some points. this requires
6:05 pm
making some historical statements about how our state of affairs end up at least and by this time certain are those today. what is the has done in terms of genocide, terms of repeating the genocide that they said should never be repeated the ways, thousands of on 1000 people out of the kids. the way side of this had been destroyed. schools and hospitals and thousands of 1000 children have been mexico. this has required on the part of a bus historic speech. he is a very, very old man, approaches 9 years ago. the should probably be his less. this should have been far more than what it is making. so it's an argument that made out basically what the americans torched in because americans, i've also spoken of those 10 points that they should be human material assistance. that should be a ceasefire. and this should be a password to watch a 2 state solution. and this should be an actions done before the saw was also big
6:06 pm
my on the bottom of an old man, but i sent you a bite of the problem here. it's not just missing point starting point to making some change about the future is how to get to. because i think that once again, those are the best unfortunately, has been missing. and actually that i see. and he prays demonstrations of practice in the united states and other western capitals about prophecy in find a sign that he, as he repressed it, wouldn't allow people to practice in past time and not just another basis. so there's a lot of books and all of that, i know what to say. he made some strong points. he could size, the max is directly the separately i talk is directly he laid out some vision for the for the future. the world is the united states are not going to find a more moderate leader that are best except to basically for the conditions if they
6:07 pm
can make peace within these not they're not going to be able to connect these with any of the successes. okay, thank you. very much more one around the shower alger, there's senior plus kind of speaking to us about that speech from policy and present mind with the boss of united nations general assembly. i want to now tend to gabriel, as on those at un headquarters in new york. and perhaps gave you can give us a sense of as of what has been said so far in united nations general assembly about this is somewhat more one was touching on that. but essentially the, the collective punishment of the policy and people and the speed and scale of the killing and destruction in gaza and now 11. and so yeah, i think what you saw here was definitely a sense and you saw my motor boss hinted this and quite frankly said out of his own mouth. he said thank you. thank you to the overwhelming number of member states that have supported palestine over the last year or so. and we saw the
6:08 pm
with either countries overwhelmingly support palestine failed bid to get full un membership. a bid that failed because the united states blocked it or for them that matter. he thanked the overwhelming number of a member states that supported a general assembly resolution calling for israel to abide by the stuart guy, c j decision and leave a palestinian land. so, i mean, i think my, who to boss was right in that sense, in his speech, when he said there's been a shift in the world in the amount of countries standing in solidarity with palestine. and i think you, we definitely seen that here at the u. n in the last year or so, he also said that he wants to lead a delegation to guys. and now of course, that would need the permission of israel. and he invited any country to join him
6:09 pm
now highly unlikely that israel would agree to this. but i think it signals to the fact that there are not enough international observers in guys that particularly in gaza. that's what he was. he said he wanted to lead to a mission to gaza. and that includes journalists as well. israel is not allowing for, and journalists into guys, and i think we've heard from the secretary general and other world leaders talking about how there needs to be more of eyes on the ground in guys. and pressuring is really to do that. and i want to bring that into a guest, it's going to speak a little bit about this to me, particularly from the journalism standpoint, jody ginsburg, the ceo of the committee to protect journalists. thank you for joining us on how to 0. i 1st want to ask you, miss ginsburg, as israel closing the algae 0 bureau in ramallah, unoccupied, westbank, the c p. j's reaction to that you put out a statement. but how troubling is that for press freedom?
6:10 pm
it's extremely troubling for press freedom, images, a loan of minute sion personnel and in full minute to get with with a guns going into a news room wallet. some live on uh, heading down to bonham. was the image of sherry now black clay that was deliberately intended to send a message to intimidate, done, that's not just algebra, but john, unless more generally. so we think that the shut down itself is extremely troubling . but also have the mana in which to shut down a codes and it was in the west bank. it wasn't even in god's it was in the west bank showing how israel, what do you make of that part of it? well, i think that indicates that the censorship of the medium is not justin fine, because obviously we've seen high levels of kennings. i'm president of numbers, have done it as kills inside garza. i know one of the other restrictions that we've seen arrest, but we've also seen arrest in the west by the binding about his era in jerusalem. so this is indicative of something that's been going on for some time,
6:11 pm
which is why the attempt to sense of the media. israel has any justification or any jurisdiction for that matter. for the actions they took at our bureau and ramallah certainly didn't believe there's any justification. we know the israel has said that they believed that i'll just, there was insights and terrorism, they provide that. absolutely no evidence. and again, this is a problem that we've seen time and again from israel, which they accuse done and as you are doing that job of being terrorist and it's extremely alarming and even is ralph allies, you look at gemini, for example, hold out the shopping of the spirit pulls at a run and signal and very troubling. and i think that's indicative of the international mood about what is riley is doing to join us and protect, to the and what can international community do to hold israel accountable for these actions against journalists? i think they have to continue to cool out as well. israel has
6:12 pm
a duty to protect journalist gender civilians, but who even hearing the you and it's been recognized that they need to be protected, not just the civilians, but because of the important role that they play and providing information during a will. and what about casa, are not allowing journalist international journalists into gaza and area where over 40000 people have been killed in almost a year. well, this is absolutely key and he goes and john, this have been doing a remarkable job to report what's happening inside cause, but i can't stress enough. how unprecedented it is that no internet to media whatsoever has been allowed into cause, except on these very tightly controlled ideas to us. that's almost unheard of even in was, you know, even in the was a stretch there and elsewhere. we still have international media be able to get in and not 6 stream the important because that enables the amplification of information about what's happening inside gaza. certainly our journalist pronounces here and others that are and guys are doing 0 at work. and i say that,
6:13 pm
i think so many people would echo those comments under incredibly difficult circumstances and, but never the less, without their journalists as well. that really can limit what can be told despite the heroic work of what the few journalists that are and guys they are doing well. that's right. it's not to say international journalists are coming in because gone and done it. so don't journalist failed the highest quality, but the importance of coming in is to help verify the information that goes. and john, this have been providing for the past yet because without but this allows and narrative in which journalists in garza can be smooth and d valued as somehow pauses on, somehow untrustworthy. and so allowing international media in would allow us to verify and amplify those voices. because we're thank you for joining us on out just here from the committee to prep journalists. thank you very much. thank you for your comments and, and your interview there. here at the united nations general assembly,
6:14 pm
the speeches will continue, we expect to hear from 11 on either the prime minister or the foreign minister here in the afternoon session, as again, uh, gaza and 11 on continue to take center stage here. thank you very much. gilbert others on the united nations in new york. thank you. i the the, the one to 10 to 11 east capital bay route. now what is rallies carried out what it calls a precise as striking the cities southern suburbs. at least 2 people were killed. 15, all those has been injured is riley media say the head of has all as drawn, unit was targeted. this is now the falls as dried on by roots in under a week is really bombardment in the past 4 days is killed at least 650 people across lebanon, and is forced hundreds of thousands to flee the us and fronds along with several
6:15 pm
other countries a cooling for a 21 day seas file on the israel lebanon bowed up. but these ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu has said, the army will continue to fight. so we have correspondence following all of these developments for you. ali hashem is entire in southern lebanon. come to sal who is in jordan's capital a mon, kimberly hall kit is in washington dc for us. i will also be hearing from honey my mood. you will have moved from dell by law in central garza, on the ongoing fund apartments that in a moment will also be live with joseph jabari. she is following all the latest news from the lebanese capital b route. first of his, this report from zayna holder who is also in the lebanese capital. and so we are in the southern suburbs. and like you said at the size of israel's latest attack, the force attacks in, under a week behind me,
6:16 pm
you can see that was target in that residential building. we understand from some sources around that the of ms file of was fired from the other locations. as you can imagine, there's a lot of chaos here. i'm sorry, yes, we have to. there's a lot of chaos. and a lot of the buildings around does have broken glass, so everybody is worried about the glass calling. so as you can imagine, the situation. so the target, the strikes and under what's the information we are getting is from the is really our me. we're still getting new information from, from, from sources, from lebanese sources. security sources is really army is saying that an f 35 hired at least 3 miss house. and what they are claiming is that the target was the, has grown. so this is becoming more frequent. these
6:17 pm
attacks on monday is ro loans, the intensive and extensive airs and areas where how's the, how's the process of the south of the country in the east of the country, even in some locations the north of babies in south. but they were densely populated area neighborhood issue like they haven't been sharing out those intensive strikes. what they've been doing is target to assassination. so you can see this appears to be very much a position strikes based on intelligence information. and really, this has raised a lot of questions about the amount of intelligence information. israel has gathered up off the groups because it has been targeting and shooting high ranking commanders, whether members of as well as the how the council. that's the highest decision
6:18 pm
making body of, in, in the nation as well as commanders who have been running operations. and so there's nothing on whether there was at the end of the 2 days ago, i believe it was the heads up the miss hall unit. and earlier this week, there was a failed assassination attempt on a high ranking number and that she has the council. so we are in baby southern suburbs. we are at the size of the attack. we still do not have much information, but from what we can see, this looks like a position strike based on intelligence information. that's not sweet to do so jabari who is in beirut for us, and we just hearing from zane to their door sir, who is at the the sight of the attack. tell us more about how people in di da he has been responding off to this latest strike as
6:19 pm
well. uh, very of, as you can imagine, that they are really uh in shock. day after day there are coming under attack by is really um, military targeting senior providers of hezbollah, one residents of da here, a neighborhood. and just told me that he moved out his family on friday. they are now in a hotel, is they root said he said that about 80 percent of the population in da here have left this neighborhood. the southern suburb, a fe, routes, as the 20 percent that are left simply don't have the means to go anywhere else. and here is home to roughly about 700000 people and even um, they know who was at the seen a notice that said the area was very, very quiet. a lot of shops were closed. so this is the scene that we've seen over the past few days. and these regular targeted attacks by israel only to drive home
6:20 pm
the point that this neighborhood is no longer safe for the civilian population. many people feel that these really military is not really a mindful of whatever civilians are in the area, what it is targeting hezbollah commands, or is in the yeah that it is not their number one priority to protect the civically a population last friday, one of the deadliest strikes by israel on the high ranking members of has the law killed 52 people. 16 members were belonging to hezbollah and the rest were civilians. so people are very worried and those who have the means to we have left the area already. okay, thank you. very much adults to do by reporting to us from a route following, not as strike on the district of dia, ali, hi, she is live for us now. entire which is in southern lebanon ali you have been reporting on as strikes that continuously throughout the day. what have you been seeing in the past few minutes? slow?
6:21 pm
am i am in this past 10 minutes. there are several as strikes here and to try region. once again, the last call, i'll come around, i need to zoom in and show us the last one. the latest it's uh, around the, the village of the zip fee towards the e saw fire. um, actually the sky line here and 5 is kind of going to get a huge because of the number of strikes over the day. so probably if after we finish seeing this strike, you can find and take us a bit towards the other ones. uh cuz there are several and yeah, the great colors don't mean they think the sky here also rockets have been launched from the sir. yeah. towards is road probably towards suffolk, as i can see. now the notifications showing,
6:22 pm
but the main issue is that is road has been trying to hit says law on different places. and this is one of the layers is right saying that they are targeting the short range and mid range, mid size, the post. so this is on the operational side. this the, the, the main layer that's being hit as we've seen within the door. so was the command layer control. there also was, there was an, a 10 by this really is to head through the communication attacks, the device attacks pages and the, the walkie talkies issue also that we have to take into consideration now with is run the hit these residential areas trying to get people out of these areas as to what's being internally the space. this is amy main, the, the internal font as has will last support as, as people who accept the not active of hezbollah, trying to make a split between them and the organization. so it's a multi layered a thought,
6:23 pm
good thing for me is read and from here's the last side. it's mainly the ministry. probably good thing for the moment. i've seen, we've seen has well, over the past 8 months, so, so 11 months it launching a tax on the border and for the past few days, going deeper. going deep into the mountains. you allow the, uh, the uh, north, so i just, i just wanted to, to get an, a quick questionnaire about what is happening inside these villages that we, you see that you were describing to us that many people still left what they've been trying to leave to what my of the issue is that many people in these villages, my background, and also the towns surrounding so tired. we're leaving that they just evacuate and just left. now of course there are some people left that because they don't have the capabilities to leave all because they have decided to die in the houses. this
6:24 pm
is something common use. many people would just say i prefer to die in my house. i don't want to go out to sleep in the school. i don't want to go, i sleep in, especially a delivery is government isn't capable of providing to people. so people, those who have, who do not have resources ending golf and fox. so any document schools on whoever have a better situation in the say, the fortunate ones are going to that run it through this houses. and this is how things are people are fired for example, this city where we all have left towards the route to what's that about other areas in the mountains? so yeah, many people have left golf course the, so some people and the thousands of villages are on a tar. thank you very much. i li, hashim reporting to us from tire in southern lebanon. and so as we've just been reporting the us front along with several west and gulf, our countries issued a joint statement calling for a ceasefire along the lebanese border. it reads the situation between 11 and an
6:25 pm
israel since october 8th, 2023 is intolerable and presents an unacceptable risk of a broad original escalation. this is and nobody's interest. it is time to conclude a diplomatic sacrament that enables civilians on both sides of the border to return to the homes. also, we call for an immediate 21 day ceasefire across the lebanon israel border to provide space for diplomacy. we quote on old policies to give a real chance to diplomatic settlement. 6, let's bringing home to sell who is live for us from amman. jordan, because the israeli government has bind algae 0 from reporting inside israel. i'm the what is the public political view in israel about the prospect's 1st is fine. well, there is no prospect for a ceasefire when it comes to the situation in the north. in fact, these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu speaking just moments ago upon his
6:26 pm
arrival in new york, where he is expected to speak at the un general assembly on friday work. he said that the goal of the mission is clear and that's to return evacuated, as really as back to those towns and settlements along the border in the north. and he says that there is not going to be a ceasefire. that's the fighting is going to continue. and in fact earlier today, these really defense minister, along with the army chief of staff, approved more operational plans for continued military activity against his bola. these really army chief of staff, hurts the hell levy. also noting earlier in the day that israel has been preparing for this for years and they're going to take this opportunity to try and do talk has been low. but of course there are so many growing concerns about what's to come if israel is going to now have this larger conflict with his bola, with no sort of n date inside. okay, home to saw it and among thank you, let's head to our white house correspondent,
6:27 pm
kimberly how good she joins us now. and so kimberly american diplomacy hasn't yielded very much in them, at least over the past. or i'm wondering, is washington busy preparing a response at the possibility that it's cold for a c? so i might be met with an escalation in the form of a, a ground invasion of lebanon as well. we are awaiting a white house press briefing in the coming hours. so if there is a response to that, we may get one it's, i'm clear, we're still waiting to see. but in the interim of what we have previously heard from a senior administration official is that there still is optimism and hope that there will be some sort of reconsideration on the part of israel. the feeling of the by the ministration is but it is still calling on all parties to accept this proposal that they believe it is in the interest on both sides of the border and would allow
6:28 pm
for people to return to their homes. and despite initial rejections, they are still hopeful. now, they do point out that this proposal involving lebanon is not tethered to the proposal for a cease fire. and israel's war and gaza, which we should point out, has also solved what they're saying is that they really believe in terms of the cease fire proposal for 11 non. but this really provides the space to allow for something more permanent. and that's why they believe that there is optimism for this to allow to mitigate ad over a broader middle east conflict. oh, thank you very much. white house correspondent. kimberly ok, thank you. kimberly. well, as much most of come for you on this, these are attending our attention to some of the world news and that the more russian attacks and ukraine, as the white house announces additional military aid during presidency landscape, visit the
6:29 pm
a hello. it's still pretty close to across a good pa, self presented. we have lost the clear sky, see it, but down to what was a se. this is a significant feature this matter proud of right as a co front to, to images and want a service at 20 celsius. 36, the full re uh, with the winds coming in for moment and all the direction those winds will swing round as we go through friday. uh, what the weather starts at to push this way up. first thing out a little bit. oh nope. i handle nice. temperature is something like a 10 degree drop by the state by the showers. meanwhile, up to was the northwest in plenty of south still in place across the central america. still seeing some very heavy rain from uh, what was the harbor can jump across southern and some southwest and parts of mexico at present. the manufacturer, of course, is this one. hey, now making his way across the gulf of mexico. this is howard. can i lean and that's
6:30 pm
making his way away from the tom peninsula. thankfully, it is moving pretty quickly. so we are looking at a movement of around 15 kilometers per hour. winds around a 140 kilometers per hour and rising over the coming days. heavy rain that's going to be on the causes, it pushes up towards the tallahassee floods and life threatening storm. so is that storm, so that could be an excess of 5 or 6 meters. as a system makes its way into the panhandle is really forces seek to silence the true affinity occupied westbank storming and shutting down houses 00 in room of the truth must be protected and heard. and the stories of real people must be told. this is not just an attack on journalist. it's an attack on the world's right to know. journalism is not a crime or pressing it's since
6:31 pm
its inception. in 1961, the quaint fund has been supporting people's livelihoods, and over 100 countries, by funding projects in an array of sectors ranging from infrastructure to health and education. these initiatives ultimately helped eradicate poverty and promote sustainable development the welcome back to the news our life from doha, our top story,
6:32 pm
the south israel has carried out what it calls the precise, as striking the lebanese capital southern. some of these 2 people were killed assisting, others have been injured. is there any bombardments in the past? 4 days is killed at least 650 people across 11 and a sudanese army as may gains, often launching a major offensive against power military rapids support forces. fighting began in the early hours of thursday morning. the army now controls 3 strategically important bridges linking hard to undermine and hard to and bari video is published online show members of the army celebrating in unique captured areas of cartoon. well, we are going to head to the united nations general assembly and a bit to hear from students to factor ruta abdul for to output hon. the ami chief. so we'll get to that when it starts 1st. so here's an invoice or know who's
6:33 pm
a director of operations in advocacy at united nations office for the coordination of humanitarian affairs, which always is from un headquarters in new york. and it is 17 months of brutal conflicts that we have seen in this country. and i think wells was tongue, the crisis isn't getting enough attention there in new york. thank you for this. indeed, as to don, is getting attention to you in general assembly quite a few side events on to them. where as you say, 530 days into the conflict. so don is facing the worst coupon. a ton crisis. we've seen 26000000 people, half the population in need of food, just basic food, some 10000000 people. i've left their homes. 8000000 have pled within the country and over 2000000 outsides to neighboring countries, as you say, is triggered the worlds fastest growing displacement crisis, housing it,
6:34 pm
what are they saying about the sequencing of events? because the fighting has to stop and it has to be a long term settlement. but what, what steps are they trying to take fit to in order to protect civilians and scale up humanitarian funding, but also access a thank you for that. so i think i'll start with access, we need access to old populations across the country. cross border through audrey in charge and also through tina the range. allow him to foster cross line across sports and um into key strategic areas where we have to monitor and needs the needs are massive. at this point, we have less than half of the funding that we require has been given to us. we're grateful to our donors, what we call for more funding. we are, we seek assistance across all sectors. food security is the highest, of course, 750000 people i need are in ip c 5, which is acute food,
6:35 pm
sick in security. and this is a country that is producing food as we speak. you talk of sequencing protection of civilians is paramount. we've gotten lots of civilian debts. we've got horrific sexual and gender violence across the country, particularly in the gulf wars. we are calling for all parties. the conflict to seize hostilities for humanitarian assistance to go in. let me be clear to me on a ton of assistance continues despite the fighting. but of course, this is very dangerous for our people up to down of course. but also here, monitoring aid workers, health care and basic services, i suppose that, that, that's been completely decimated at this point to tell me more about the in direct consequences of this war. you speaking about the terrible sexual violence. what about the public health crisis? because cholera and all the diseases now are on the rise,
6:36 pm
the opposite ot 80 percent of students health care system is on its knees. you've got to 13300 people. cases of color are reported. $400.00 depths already in may and june of those $400.00 children were killed in sudan just one month. this is unacceptable. the consequences of this war means multiple displacements, people who have been displaced once already. i've met with the refugees from different countries who once sold assistance in sudan, now displaced multiple times. each time people get displaced, the more valuable, the more susceptible to diseases, people up. so down these up the world's attention, i'm really happy. they are shedding a spotlight on this horrific prices. i'm really happy that we're talking about a country that once was the bread boss gets of not just you down, but the one of our freak of this country now with the people who are dying from
6:37 pm
hunger, a country that has its health system completely different states it's a country that has disease outbreak, there was drought that was called the wrong, that is colorado, a country that is struggling to take care of its basic needs of the population. and here i'm talking about how to unplug my cord. the fun i'm talking about the for, i'm took my to 0 where again i ate the best break a grapefruit, and my goal is to ensure that i cannot believe this is where we are today or not that's, it's very important that you say that because this is a country with enormous potential, beautiful country, incredible agriculture. it should be a broad boss, get in the region, but it's uh how much of it it's lands at, destroyed and find. and now it will also be faced with the task of rebuilding. i know that you don't want to get into these kind of questions because of you what you know, i have to us. it's very difficult to imagine all the foreign international involvement that is perpetuate to this conflict and results. and it's close to always brutality
6:38 pm
