possible. borders are closed all we are is the international community to put pressure on israel to to open the commotion. i was happy about i had yeah we're allowed humanitarian corridor or so during the hostilities no not yet we are in the humanitarian sector trying to put pressure right now on. the take a little in order to insist on israel to halt in the commission borders to allow essential goods and fuel to be entered together. and also to allow for humanitarian commodore both we cannot even move the emitter in waters so we want. we want them to allow us to find a way to reach to our humanitarian boat so we can do our work at the moment can you tell us sir about the situation in gaza as hospitals how are they coping with the influx of injured people. this is tuition in health sector is

over when it's already overwhelming the overstretched sector. has been under blockade for more than 14 years and it's considered a humanitarian project and prices the situation the last. one is really about the capacity is limited. and you know like with all what happened last year with the crop in 1000 in. this if you need health care about this very limited. one of living and working in the sixty's and he was describing a difference to asian but the sickly like for those t.v.'s injuries that need. intensive care. units and i think if you don't know like we have only 61 unit and it's already occupied by the by the club in 1000 cases right so in general

to some of. the older ones it is overwhelming and we understand that 2 prominent medical doctors have been killed in air strikes how big of a loss are the deaths of these essential medical workers. of course this is will affect the the medical teams like you know like the looking to the to go walk in the last week they've been walking around and. trying to provide health care to the nation the injured people and most of them are civilians and suffering from such hostility and to find out that their colleagues are targeted as well listen before of course will be a bad situation and influence on the on the look of asians who do the work yes. yes he is the gaza area manager for the norwegian refugee council sir thank you for joining us you're welcome thank you very much. and earlier today when

you spoke to jeremy israel's ambassador to germany and we asked him about the israeli military bombing a tower housing international media organizations in gaza over the weekend where there was intentionally targeting the building meant to silence those who report on the situation on the ground. to the best of my knowledge no and everything i can see on television whether it's on sea analogise they're all the other stations on the chevelle and i don't think there's any lack of coverage and we wouldn't do that in order to stop coverage we had very clear information about the facilities that would have being serving hamas in terms of their intelligence capabilities the cyber capabilities and also very particular equipment and i'm pretty sure that not everyone realizes the extent to which hamas again embeds itself in the civilian population in order to try and have

a human shield so if anyone should come to any. complaints here it should be to hamas that what they did was no less of a war crime than fighting and cheating against israeli civilians in israel and the deadly news also asked israel's ambassador to germany about pro palestinian demonstrations here in germany some of which were overshadowed by anti semitic rhetoric and acts and if you feel the german government is doing enough to fight these incidents. i think 1st of all i've spoken to some of the initial incidents of concern worry in north wrong with sports failure i spoke to a large ship the prime minister of the state and he was very concerned about it and we discussed in here showed me that they will do all in their power to prevent it and other senior security officials spoke to me and also assured me that they will

do all in their power look some of these things of fighting against you know jewish communities confronting them attacking synagogues burning israeli flags these are things you know it's one thing to have a peaceful demonstration but another thing to have these type of the acts which really i mean the jewish community in germany has nothing to do with the crisis going on in gaza they are deserving of living like any other community in germany in peace and security and i based on what i have heard also from president who spoke out very loudly against these attacks also from what i've heard from all see how for the minister of interior who came out against these attacks and he said we will use all in our power to stop these type of anti semitic attacks so i from that point of view i feel the german authorities will do all they can to prevent

his team organized and they had but now his office along with 36 others enough violence campaign network have had to close russia's state prosecutor wants them declared extremist andre tells us he wants to create a new local political organization to keep working. for politics was always centered on the russian capital moscow but thanks to the nerve on the campaign offices political activity has bubbled up across russia's regions reach you now it's time for us regions to jump into the deep end and swim for ourselves it's hard and dangerous but it's a necessary phase in the development of political life not only in fear but across the country. and that he and his team and their have become friends over the years like andre most of them have been arrested several times and i've accepted threats and pressure as the price to pay for pushing back against the kremlin but the extremist label takes that to another level it could make symbols like this and for
