6:01 am
they never cease to a make or mystify. who created this crop circumstance until a field in southern germany? hello. israel says it will press ahead with the military offensive in gaza despite international condemnation. the chief of israeli forces in gaza says a few more days are needed to complete the destruction of the tunnels that is found. so far, 59 israelis have been killed in this offensive. a vast majority soldiers of course. in gaza, the number of palestinians killed has climbed to about the 1,300 mark. yesterday more than 3,000
6:02 am
palestinians seeking shelter were hit in a strike. nothing is more shameful than attacking sleeping children. israel's cabinet is holding a meeting behind closed doors in tel aviv. benjam benjamin netanyahu said we're determined to finish this mission with or without a cease fire. bethany bell is in jerusalem. i suppose the key is when they know they've hit all these tunnels. they've knocked out a large number. how do they detect them? >> we're told by israeli army spokesman there are a number of ways to detect tunnels. some involve certain technologies. we understand robots may be
6:03 am
involved. question of intelligence on the ground and from the air. they talk about aerial surveillance over some period of times. of course getting physically people on the ground, soldiers seeing things. they say those that they have discovered 32 tunnels so far, some of them which have about 70 access points. they've destroyed half of them. as we heard from prime minister benjamin netanyahu they're going to continue until they've destroyed them. >> the message from the military being that may be a few more days at which point bethany, do you think the israeli government can declare a victory and pursue a cease fire? >> well certainly the objective that has consistently over the past few days been given by the israeli prime minister is the destruction of these tunnels.
6:04 am
he said this is the objective. that is a limited objective. he's not talking about a major ground expansion into gaza at the moment. it could be that once the army feels its completed the job of dealing with the tunnels that then perhaps the israeli government may be willing to consider calls for the big, strong international calls for a cease fire. we're waiting to see how that develops. destroying the tunnels we're told is a complex job. it's done by combat engineers on the ground. they have to put explosives under the tunnels. they're trying to reduce the amount of damage to the buildings. >> thanks very much indeed. the offensive is reeking huge damage in gaza. we have a man that lived in the territory many years. i asked him how bad things have
6:05 am
become now. >> actual willy the worst i've ever seen since i came to gaza. i've witnessed previous two offensives. this is much worse especially high number of casualties in civilians. by the end of yesterday, more than 250 children lost their lives out of 1,260 people which means that one child in every four people killed. in addition to that, a huge amount of people fleeing their homes, talking 240,000 inside the shelters. there are others up to 200,000 also sheltering elsewhere, with other families or in the streets. it's still continuing. we're thinking more casualties amongst the civilians. >> what are you able to do at
6:06 am
save the children in gaza now? >> we have seized every opportunity to intervene immediately on the cease fire to provide families and children with needs including medication, disposables, first aid kits, hygiene for the newborn children. while we are scaling up our response to provide social support to the children, where we have seen cases of 200,000 more in need of support. we're scaling up the rehabilitation to give water. those cannot be achieved without a cease fire established immediately. >> i guess from what we're reading at moment, there's not a huge suggestion that a cease fire is in sight. if there's no cease fire, are
6:07 am
you able to go and out do anything given the risk you'd be taking? >> it's very risky. there's no safe place in gaza at the moment. that's why we are calling on the parties involved and the international community to pressure the departments involved in the conflict to bring all of the violence to an end. >> he's from save the children. we can cross now to gaza. i'm going to speak to a resident there. he's joining us via web cam. thank you for joining us. you're living in a world where you've got very little power, little water, a city crumbling around you. how is life for you? >> i don't see -- we don't have little power and little water. we don't have power or water at all. they have cut off our power.
6:08 am
there is no power. for water, i have been struggling five days to get drinking water for my kids. i couldn't find any until now. i'm trying to get some. for example, my house was destroyed. i had someone to work with. the whole neighborhood where i was living, where i was living, it was destroyed complete willy. the situation is very difficult. >> yeah it doesn't get much more desperate than the situation you're describing. let me ask you what you think is
6:09 am
the best next step. there are a huge number of palestinians dying in this. would your message be let's just stop this? >> my message to hamas, let's stop this. not only for hamas. the interior siege forced by the group. they're doing best for us. i'm not supporting killing people, not supporting the war. hamas is doing what it can need to lift is seize. hamas is insisting on lifting the the cease. why it has been enforced on gaza strip one point. civilians living in the strip,
6:10 am
why the cease there? if it's lifted, everything will be ending. >> we spoke you a couple of years ago. you clearly ready to support hamas. it sounds as if your support remains firm. >> i have never supported hamas in fighting. i thought solution like this. i am saying that i'm looking. i have -- i thought people supporting hamas stand before. they said that dying under israeli shelling is end of cease. we are dying. we want cease to be lifted. this is what palestinians now are desperate. they are at desperate point.
6:11 am
they want to fight if cease isn't lifted. they have been living under bad situation for eight years. international community doesn't do anything to them but support israeli. >> sorry to interrupt you. clearly desperate for you, your family, entire palestinian community in gaza. is there any sense of optimism at all about the near future? >> we don't see any optimism in the near future because we see continued daily killing undermined by netanyahu, prime minister. he continues daily mass can
6:12 am
considers like yesterday. there were two massacres, one in the morning and one in the evening. that was the last day of muslim eid. palestinians in the gaza strip created desperate because in three day of eid, more deaths -- about 300 palestinians were killed. more than 1,200. 100 houses were destroyed. for my family, for the first time they don't sleep in their house. first day my kids went to look at rubble of my house and started crying, started screaming. they tried to look and search for their things which i bought
6:13 am
for them before destruction of the house. >> i'm going to have to stop you. it's clearly a desperate and personal story you're bringing us. thank you very much indeed for joining us on bbc world news. well of course if you want more background on the conflict in ga gaza the place is to go is website, bbc.com/news. we have updates from correspondents on the ground. we've got a report on the hamas tunnel net work can which netanyahu is insisting will be destroyed. bbc.com/gaza. the ukrainian government says it has temporarily stopped campaign against pro-russian rebels in the east of the country to enable international experts to get to the crash site of the malaysian flight mh 17.
6:14 am
rebels are continuing to attack. the dutch prime minister is meeting to discuss plans to get the rest of the remainses of victims and continuing problems of getting to the crash site. he'll be traveling to amsterdam where the victims are identified. the dutch are leading the investigation into the downing of mh 17. the incident, fallout, all hoping to strain relations between the dutch and russians. anna reports from the hague. >> reporter: they may look delicate but flowers are a mighty industry, worth more than $6 billion. this is the biggest flower market in the world. 100,000 are sold every minute. russia is one of the most importing customers.
6:15 am
since introduction of sanctions, trade and import fell by 17%. the dutch traders are facing dilemma. >> the dilemma is because all the economic reasons. more imported than other reasons of what's happening there. that's what i call the devil's dilemma. you have to choose. you can't live from moral ideas. >> last year russia was the largest destination for goods. the small nation relies heavily on foreign trade. so far influential multinationals have refused to give public comments. we understand they're watching the situation on the ground. 193 people from the netherlands were on board this malaysia airline flight. dutch forensic investigators are still struggling to access the
6:16 am
wreckage. the dutch prime minister is ready to increase the pressure on russia. >> he wants to prepare another range of sanctions that will be triggered. at the end of the investigation, it would emerge russia is behind this. they'll be triggered if russia is not helping in opening the crash site putting pressure on rebels to make sure we can work it out. >> a russian trade representative here in the netherlands told us they deeply regret the catastrophe. >> for the first time, the dutch feel they cannot give priority to business with russia under all circumstances. they have to do what small countries normally don't do, take positions on the base of other arguments than economic arguments. >> as russia's third largest trade partner, dutch have economic clout. at this farmer's market in the hague, we found attitudes
6:17 am
towards russia are changing. >> people that die it's more important than money we can earn in russia. >> it's a delicate situation. the netherlands may soon have to consider alternative markets. bbc news many the hague. >> in the press conference, this is malaysian prime minister. we can have a listen in. >> with australia, with all countries who's people have been lost, we stand together united in grief and ready to help however we can. earlier prime minister and i spoke about the continued military activity and at the crash site. the inability of the international investigators to deploy across it. and human remains that may still lie there. for the sake of the grieving families, it is imperative that all remains at the crash site
6:18 am
are received as soon as possible. every single victim must be given dignity and a decent funeral. our other priority is insure international investigators are given full access to the site so they may collect evidence and carry out their vital work. only then we will be able to find out what happened to mh 17. only then we can achieve justice for victims and their families. the conflict in eastern ukraine may not be easily resolved but the people on board that plane had no part in it. we asked them a an immediate sensation of hostility in and
6:19 am
around the crash site by ukrainian and separatist forces. we asked all sides respect the lost and integrity of the site so investigation can proceed. long walk towards justice begins with this step. a team of 68 malaysian police have arrived if in kiev today. they'll work together with the dutch and australian teams to help secure access to the site. malaysia fully supports the international investigation. we are grateful to the netherlands for their lead in the international team. the remains of the victims as fast as possible is a shared priority. malaysian experts are already helping here in the netherlands with a pain staking task of
6:20 am
identification. we stand ready to provide more assistance if required. on behalf of malaysia, i'd like to thank prime minister and dutch people for all they have done and continue to do for the victims of the senseless and tragic act. thank you. >> so the dutch and malaysian prime minister shaking hands having to work in close tandem as they can getting to those remains of the bodies of victims at crash site itself. nearly two weeks. extraordinary thing to hear calling for things like that two weeks after the plane hit the ground. side by side there with regard to the mh 17 crash. you're watching bbc world news. still to come on the program, who or maybe what even created

our top stories. israel's prime minister says the army will continue the mission to destroy all militant tunnels in gaza with or without a cease fire. investigators will reach the site of the crashed malaysia airlines plane. rebels continue to attack. a public health emergency outbreak over the ebola virus. paris has a new unwanted
6:31 am
attraction, infestation of rats. hello. israel says it will press ahead with its military offensive in gaza despite international condemnation. it's called out a further 16,000 reservist troops. the chief of israeli forces in gaza also said a few more days are needed to complete the destruction of the tunnels that it found. so far, 59 israelis have been killed in the ongoing offensive, almost all soldiers in fact. in gaza, the number of palestinians killed has climbed beyond 1300. 16 were killed in the shelling of a school where 3,000 palestinians have been seeking
6:32 am
shelter. the u.n. general condemn had the saying nothing is more shameful than attacking sleeping children. israel's cabinet is meeting behind closed doors in tel aviv. netanyahu had this to say. until now we have destroyed dozens of tunnels and will continue this mission with or without a cease fire. we look at what it's like living in gaza during this offensive. we've been speaking to one resident. >> we don't have water or power at all. they have cut off our power. there is no power and no water. i have been struggling for five days to get some clean water, some clean drinking water for my kids. i couldn't find any until now.
6:33 am
i'm trying to get some. for example, my house was destroyed. i had to work with my organization. the whole neighborhood where i was living, it was destroyed completely. the situation is very difficult. >> yeah, it doesn't get much more desperate than the situation you're describing. let me ask you what's the next best step. there's a huge number of palestinians dying. would your message to hamas be stop this? >> my message to hamas let's just stop this. not only for hamas. hamas is struggling to lift the
6:34 am
interior cease which has been imposed by israeli and international community. hamas is doing the best for us. i'm not supporting killing people, not supporting the war, but hamas is doing what it can need to lift the seize. hamas is insisting on lifting the seize. why force has been on one point, civilians living in the gaza strip. why seize there? i think if it was lifted it would be ended. >> he's talking to me from gaza. i'm speaking to associate at the royal institute in london. thanks very much for joining us. give us a picture first of all
6:35 am
as the state of play for negotiations for a cease fire in gaza. >> we heard a couple of days ago of possibility of different factions coming to cairo and implication was hamas was going to be a part of that. within a few hours that was called into doubt. it seems if there are negotiations here, they're not taking place on the highest of levels. it's doubtful all parties are here any way. this indeed has been a problem over the last few weeks in trying to find some sort of cease fire solution. different parties that need to be in that room are simply not invited the levels they need to be. >> is cairo the right place to be holding these talks? >> the hamas view is clear isn't it? egypt curtesy of president, sisi has no time at all.
6:36 am
does cairo make sense as a place to focus on? >> we're caught in a rather difficult pair dox here. the seize and blockade opens the border of egypt and gaza. egypt's involvement in that remains quite important. on the other hand as you rightly point out, relations between hamas and cairo are not particularly good to put it mildly. it doesn't seem as though that's going to change any time soon. palestinians the in gaza are unfortunately caught in the midst of not one but two war on terror. war on terror egypt is waging at the present time as far as it's concerned and also israelis. in the middle of that,
6:37 am
palestinians in gaza are suffering tremendously. 1200 are dead. >> briefly the perspective from egypt itself. i saw the former president morsi supporting the people in gaza, palestinians there. are are there indications of pressure on president al-sisi now? >> here in cairo at least from what i've seen there seems to be a difference of opinion as to what's going on. there will be quite a few who identify the palestinians in gaza as represented by hamas. hamas being part of the quote unquote war on terror. on the other hand you have immense populist sympathy for gaza irrelevant of their political affiliation. that remains constant. the the question is how much is that going to translate to action from authorities and in terms of affecting a cease fire quickly. >> aj, thanks very much. joining us there in cairo.
6:38 am
of course if you want more on the story in gaza and the background, we've got it for you on the website, bbc.com/gaza. expert analysis, report on the hamas tunnel network which benjamin netanyahu made clear he's going to destroy. bbc.com/gaza. ukraine's government says it's temporarily stopped the campaign against pro russian rebels in the east of the country to allow ex perts to reach the crash site of malaysian airline flight mh 17. it says rebels continue to attack. prime minister of malaysia and netherlands have been discussing the problems of accessing the crash site as well as plans for remains of the victims. the malaysia prime minister will travel to a military base near amsterdam where the bodies are
6:39 am
being identified. >> malaysia is in mourning. we mourn the loss of all 298 lives on board mh 17. as you watch the first bodies arrive, our hearts reach out to people of netherlands. the flags fly at half mass. the nations who lost their sons and daughters and of our determination to work together to bring them home. >> anna is in the hague. we've heard for the best part of two weeks these demands for access to the crash site. is there anything more constructive do you think coming from the two prime ministers today? do they believe they're finally going to get what they need?
6:40 am
>> pressure. the said they're putting pressure on the government of ukraine, on russia to allow access to this crash site. they tried three times already. the dutch forensic investigators and unarmed military police have tried three times to access the site. they've been unsuccessful because of fighting and explosions. today mark said they have three priorities, three shared priorities bringing back the bodies and their possessions, finding out what the cause was, getting clarity as to the cause of the crash and bringing the perpetrators to justice. the malaysian prime minister signed condolences after the meeting. he'll now travel to the facility where the bodies that have been taken are now being identified. >> the ukrainian authorities are saying we'll have a 24 one day cease fire to enable the investigators to get on the site. they are suggesting that there's still some pro russian
6:41 am
separatists incidents going on as well. what is the view of the prime minister? are they buying into that or are they really playing the we'll believe it when we see it sort of card? >> well i think the dutch prime minister is always taken a pragmatic approach to this. something a lot of people in the netherlands think doesn't go far enough, isn't strong enough. lots of people have been calling for military intervention. mark says this is the right approach. he believes with diplomacy there can be results. he's made it clear he's willing to go furtherer with sanctions that have been discussed than implemented by the eu leaders already. he said that will depend on them being allowed to access the crash site. he believes putin can be instrumental in this. he says when they get the report of the crash, trying to investigate who was responsible if it turns out president putin
6:42 am
was responsible, he will not be afraid to implement further sanctions there. the two leaders united in morning. their two dowcountries suffered greatest losses in the crash. >> indeed. thanks anna. let's get more on the ebola viru virus. the president in west africa says he'll quarantine areas and calls on security forces to enforce. in liberia, several schools have been shut. our correspondent gave me this update. >> yes, exactly. these plans sound pretty tough, but i think they will be welcomed by medical agencies which have been struggling to contain the outbreak so far
6:43 am
especially since they are facing so much reluctance on the ground. they've been facing the reluctance of the authorities to declare that state of emergency earlier on when the outbreak started. the sierra leone says that the army would be enforcing measures. he ordered house to house searches to find suspected cases. it's not clear how searches will be carried out, whether sol yes, sir go to people's houses or not. he also announce had the localities and homes were identified. they will be quarantined as well. >> do you get a sense in these countries there's a growing public sense the authorities
6:44 am
have been slow to respond? >> i think after months of denial from some communities and also reluctance from certain authorities to clearly take a grip from what was going on, we have finally governments that are taking the full extent, the ebola virus is not only confined to remote areas anymore but it's in the capital free towns of romania, liberia. it's in the city of guinea. it's in the commercial capital of nigeria. a passenger came off the plane and was infected and died. he may have infected more people there. obviously a lot of worries across the west africa region.
6:45 am
governments have been coming in tremendous pressure from the world health organization. medical agencies put in place tough plans to curb the spread of the disease. >> you're watching bbc world news. still to come, argentina falls into default. that's the second time in 13 years. also we rediscover lost cull curl phenomenon from the 50s. join us for a look into tiki pop.

6:49 am

lawsuit. you don't sue somebody unless you want to prove they are wrong. this is about the road to impeachment. if it is not, the speaker can say one simple sentence. impeachment is off the table a. >> are you willing to let any one president choose what laws to execute and what laws to the change? are you willing to let any one tear apart what our founders have built? argentina has defaulted on international debt, second time. the hedge funds hold $1.3 billion worth of bonds after the country last defaulted. bbc has been watching reaction there. >> they're waiting to see what the actual consequences of this selective default will be in
6:51 am
argentina. many people feel it will harm foreign investments. that's why the government has been looking for other investors like russia or china with whom argentina signed a couple of deals only a couple of weeks ago. in general, they are pretty calm. they're used to the absence of the economy and because they know this situation is different to have watched happen 13 years ago in 2001. people were trying to break into banks because they weren't allowed to get savings back. that's not going to happen this time. the economy is much better shape. the government says it has money to pay. still many people are worried this default could have effect
