justified by military necessity or it may amount to collective punishment. a correspondent rebecca rivers described the military build up in southern israel near the border with gaza. well we can hear from where we are about 8 kilometers from the gaza border and we can he, uh, pretty consistent sides. this, the strikes going on in the northern part of the gaza strip. there was a, a lol in what we could hear before it. it sounded to from where we're standing, the things had come down a little bit about where we're told that they have been consistently bombing so perhaps other areas in the goals district that we're not able to hear. there was a little earlier, there was a small uh then we've been seeing and read some days, but a barrels of rockets that came over here, but it has been slightly calmer in this area where i'm sending sarah this morning. i'm a little early. we were reporting from, from somewhere out across the way we've been asked to move, the idea from move this on of these ready military. that is. but over day you can see it a very intense build up of hardware and military personnel,

big machines. and to mine and he mind tags at what we're hearing. oh, and we're saying some rockets, rockets are coming in from dallas. and now uh so you know, these things very much going on here. would you like to show that we're trying to run? and of course rebecca, if you need to take shelter, please do so we well the yeah, we charge you the same office. we can't even see them. rebecca, we can see those rockland, or even through the air as we've mentioned, to you or to the and you're on the border there with, with does a can you just tell us because, i mean you're, you're, you're quite familiar with this area. you've been reporting there for, for quite a while. as we see these rockets here streaming through the air. how are people coping with the situation their age? very 10. so what i will just say is what you're the rock until you're seeing

farming left is the actually the i in durham is rose defense system firing towards the rockets and the plains of smoke. all the into sections that you're seeing. we cannot hear that the fate being any land full and we weren't, we weren't here news of that for some time. 5 for it for a few minutes at least. but people in this area is a very tense situation here, as you can imagine here and uh, you know, i've been saying i have reported down here before and you know, the people here a used to conflicts. they're used to hearing these real kits. they used to hearing the sirens and, and all the times of the times that i've been down here reporting, you know, when you speak to the locals, they have a sense of, you know, that it's only just a normal part of their lives. you see people riding around them and motorcycles, for example, and, and even looking over last night, even actually somebody looked over to me and was kind of like, you know, what do we do? this is, this is life. but i can really say that it feels very different. hey,

this time people are very worried about what's going to happen. is this impending a sense of anticipation to say what is rouse next? move is going to be, as i mentioned, were watching the troop bill. that's happened here in the northern part of the border, but that, that, that kind of thing is happening all along the border and it does tend lend people to believe that they potentially could be a ground defensive. that's certainly something that's being talked about. we've seen it reported in us press that, that, that the us government are expecting this riley is to go in. but that hasn't been confirmed by the us government, or by israel at this stage of the military here. obviously not wanting to give any hints about what the next step is going to be, but as you've heard in that report, you probably just before i came on a prime minister benjamin netanyahu saying that it is going to be big. and it is potentially going to be long,

so the residents here and of course the residents in gauze are on the other side. also preparing and bracing for the worst. and on the other side, they're already seeing some of the was. and rebecca, um, you know, it is expected that there will be as ground operation in because we are expecting israel to move in. there are some indications that being a possibility of yesterday we saw a number of tanks moving behind you. what are you seeing today? we've seen the build up to that as i was trying to explain before we're seeing yesterday we so uh what, what appeared to be quite a lot of hardware and uh, personnel. and today we are seeing even more in this area alone. i haven't personally pain along the border, but from reports this is happening all of the across. all along the guy of the guns and border. we have been getting where the old breach points out from the guys. a

fence have been sealed and in the area is currently being mind to try and prevent any further from us militant from coming through breaching that border area. not as we say, we see the worst that they will be around invasion. it certainly looks like they preparing for a big offensive to w as rebecca renters. thank you. let's get a quick look at some other developments. the death toll since mosse launched its attack on israel on saturday is over 1600 people more than 900 of them in israel, over 700 in gaza. the united nations relief agency and the works agencies say that more than $137000.00 bosses are taking shelter. are you in run schools? the us says that it has become delivering military equipment and munitions to israel and the hamas run health ministry and gaza. it has called for the opening of a safe core door for medical aid, saying that hospitals are running out of supplies us. and joining me here in the studio is database, middle east analyst, and is rarely colleague,

shawn. it was honest, shiny. we're learning more details basically about this attack on saturday. the horror is growing, the scale is grind, but we're getting a more complete picture. indeed, i mean, 1st of all, the numbers when 1500 thomas maintenance, at least, i'm probably more like 2 sounds of because there are several hundreds also held by is really security forces. that's unimaginable. the scale of the failure of these really intelligence is being revealed as these numbers are being confirmed. and it's, and that will be the great shock that everybody at, in israel still experiencing, and the brutality to where the images of now being revealed. because now it is a finally access to those towns that were not held in his real control so far that the burn houses, the bodies all over the damage to to lot. i mean really complete hor shaking up everybody. ok. there's so many open questions um,

but i just want to drill down specifically at the political situation right now and ask you because there was much talk about a unity government coming together. is that still now possible? yes, very much. so this is has, as we were speaking now, there came to an official announcement that then it's a now has had a meeting with all of has a collision partners. they all agree to the need to extend a governmental for unity government to bring in a centralized government that he's led by the former military chief of staff. 2 of them actually to bring them into the circle of decision making. and only now we will start seeing israel's offensive, actually getting going because there's more, no house is more knowledge, but there's also a better support. i mean, wider support from that to me out as he feels in order to launch what he claims to be unprecedented. attack that will change the face of the region. so will you have to be seen what that might mean? how about the hosted situation? we've heard a number of numbers to on out there. there's some reports that there are over

a 100 hostages. the idea if it's okay with a spokesperson earlier today, they're using the term dozens correct. what do we know about negotiations to release them? so it efforts might be under way? well, the government is quoting anything to a 100, a $150.00. the idea of confirmed that he has given a 50 families the announcements so, and they said as, as long as they did not denounced personally, 12 families that won't be given the final numbers. i'm officially the government of israel says there will be no negotiations. not too many to count would come us not to buy a car town, not to it, just not, not to anybody else that the humanitarian need to free those helpless children elderly. you know, they don't want to be negotiating, negotiating on that. they want to expose the way they see it, how much is the whole poor to the world and immoral acts, basically war crimes. and however, the growing pressure from these really public, from the many, many families who are suffering for looking for the relative whining and says one

thing certainty, it's not going to be easy to, for these really government to keep them going. and all that is, if the house is, there's not a problem medic issue that they need to. first off, you have been monitoring is really media quite closely. um, you know, you're also as rarely you're in touch with family and friends back there. so if you could just give us a sense of, of this moment what it is right now for, for is really society. what's your impression? there's no way back. you know, people understand what happened on october 7th. that saturday morning has changed the face of israel that the is really they're seeing now is never going to be the same. it's as this other than the shock and horror and the sadness. there's a lot of rage slowly surfacing israel is at the beginning of a very troubling time. johnny was on his date of the middle east reporter. thank you so much. of course now many were killed and, and,

and as well the farming community near the golf and border over a 100 bodies were found in the area cupboards. after i stand off between him aust militants and the is really military. survivors have been talking about what happened when the militants infiltrated their community. they faced us and escaped at 400 people who witnessed the mastercard berry keyboard, sneered garza in bunk cuz of the constant fire. yes or must have shown if is there anything you need or can i help you with anything? this volunteer asks yes, giving back my keyboard. the woman says, give me back my mode. it's friends. the army, let them die. in the middle of israel. saw all the killers struck on saturday morning. they caps at the moments when they looted kidnapped and randomly killed people. anyone who went outside was killed
