ok frank, believe it's a thank you. but if the end of this frankie at which thank you. thank you. now i'm us medicines have abducted thousands of hostages, including children and the elderly. most families have had no wood on their face. one of the many missing is german is really citizen chinese look, the family has been trying to get help from the government here in berlin, but they feel abandoned by the juvenile 4 seas. this is the last picture of shiny look on social media. the 22 year old jem, and these really was that this music festivals into neg, if that's a window tender was struck, they killed at least 260 people. then cabinets several of those 2 guys, including shawnee in this video, she's displayed by the terrorists, unconscious and the back of a pickup truck relatives recognize to so days around who lives in gemini sunday morning. we have no live funeral and we're trying to do the best

for this girl on tuesday. assume or off hope shaun. he might be in a hospital in garza, the relative say they have received his information from an informant. that's why the bus, that's another clue that points in that direction is that to a credit card was used in a shop next to the hospital because we've come here from the sending. the family has been trying to get help since sunday. they said they are forwarded to sup enough little help. they feel neglected by piece it's. we are really disappointed. we haven't been able to reach anyone from the phone office for more than 48 hours. they told us to put in some forms and it would then be dealt with more quickly. stuff gets schnettler showing these mother in these ro appeals for help. i the matter. we ask, no,

we didn't mind the german government act quickly. there shouldn't be any questions about responsibility. they must act quickly to get shiny out of gaza because it strikes continue to hit the area and the ground defensive may be imminent. we believe that the only one that can help in this moment is only that the german government. that is the hope to keep sony alive. and for more on this we can bring indeed updated political corresponding julia sl daily. julia, do we have any idea about how many german citizens had been to fix it? people who might have been killed? it objected. how many are missing at this moment? as so we've heard from german 4 minister, another in the bad book that there are thought to be hostages in gaza. that how much of a terrorist organization has taken, but there she didn't make any numbers. german media is estimating that there were

at least 5 german nationals taken hostage. and there are reports that at least one german national has been killed in the attack. and it is reported to be a 22 year old student from berlin. but the german 4 ministry has not confirmed this death. there are also of thought to be thousands of german citizens still in israel. also many of them, dual nationals between germany and israel. and the german 4 ministry has received since the weekend, around 4500 requests from german citizens to return to germany. a lot of flights to and from israel have been stopped at the moment. so the german foreign ministry has now asked the national carrier. lufthansa to operate flights in and out of israel on thursday and friday to evacuate german citizens. it is expected that there will be 4 flights a day for this purpose. and due to what more have we heard from billboard cheese

here in germany? so on the case of shiny lucas, she is the case has not been officially addressed by the foreign ministry. but we have heard from her family that they had a allegedly difficulties in trying to get in touch with the foreign ministry. what the german foreign minister has said is that there is a non stop communication going on between german aust, doherty's and colleagues on the ground. but also any after, on the ground that has direct communication open with how mos in the attempt to try to free any hostages there. what's a bad book also said is that with a terrorist organization like how miscommunication is anything but easy. and we know that the situation in gaza were shiny, look to be confirmed to be in critical condition in the hospital is particularly difficult because of the relentless bombing going on. we've heard from the doctors

on the ground. we've heard reports that they're running out of medicines and that hospitals or at the capacity and getting out of the gaza strip itself, is very complicated. so the situation in terms of trying to get the hostages out seems to be very difficult and complicated. right. that is the view from building the thank you to all political correspondent, julia salt. any and he has some, most stories making headlines. poland president has appointed to new military leaders off to their previous cases. resigned just days before a divisive general election. the 2 generals didn't provide reasons for quitting, but foolish media said they had, let's do to disagreements with the defense minister and government attempts to involve the ministry in its re election campaign for eve was retained. lydia has slammed into mexico's waste, closed it made land for near the popular beach results off for till by law to full

a weapon of war that they need to be ready for upcoming freshman attacks on ukrainian infrastructure and specially on any energy infrastructure. so that is why so lensky is here to get more pledges from partners to get more or defense and munition and of tillery alex levels. eyes are on the middle east right now. is there a feeling there in brussels that the war between israel and how much is potentially now overshadowing the war and ukraine? well, that is certainly the case, christine and some diplomats are expressing their concerns that the u. s. might shift a full course from ukraine to the conflicts 1st and foremost, of course, is royal. and of course, some are also concerns looking at the problems that the u. s. congress is heading

multitasking these, the modern because if we do too much, we get it all wrong. we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage. humans and multitasking watch. now on youtube, v. w documentary, the, the hello, you're watching dw news in berlin. my name is christine window, and these are the latest developments in israel and the gaza strip. is really ministry has struck 100 small targets in gone. so the nice or more than 2000 people have died on both sides. since how must this terrorist attack on sunday the united nation stays more than 260000 gallons. had been displaced by israel's bombardment

as officials in gaza report of the 900 palestinians have been killed. these radio armies save it has now launch the re gained control of the gods. a border way is as mass forces head of an expected ground offensive. israel continues to find victims of the most of the tax in the area around gaza. within 1200 is rain. these have been killed, dozen small have been taken back to gaza as hostages. now how much has a that's a dozens of people, including children and the elderly. some hostages were also taken at an outdoor musical festival close to gaza. gunman shot that at least 260 people that all the families of some of those at that festival still have no news about their loved ones. they don't know whether they are dead or alive. our corresponding tonya crane must sent us this report. the uncertainty is unbearable since saturday doesn't tomo shut them, have had no news of that or to

a new one. she was at the race next to the boots. the you have the casa border when i'm us militants. launch the attack. no i'm uh i was uh, calling the 830 about 8 30 in the morning this saturday and she was frightened and crying. and she was like saying there's gunshot that we could hear like there is a gunshots around. and there we find some show took place and with a group of people together. and then this things happen here sometimes, you know, like i was telling her no problem. you're in a safe place, work. so the 10 soon and see you in a while a and then she said ok, i don't have much a battery. so uh, i love you all and then i'm,

i'm afraid i love you all and i don't know what's going to happen. but anyway, i love you all remember to sit up to several of thousands, mainly young party goers where at the side, saturday morning when rockets felt looms and gunman started to shoot at least 250 people died here, dozens missing. so to be taken to gauze and held hostage by the militants. 3 days later, toma shalom and his family are still searching hospitals, hoping that daughter wasn't a doctor. that was the last time that anyone heard the something from nom and from that time we are kind of in a lock. this is a sense of sadness and go and uncertainty of what is said to come. as more details emerge from what unfolded on such a day, many is radius has a hard time to come to terms with the unprecedented attack on is really communities,

me as it goes this trip in till a v if young adult he has also been looking for a friend drum, he was working at the festival. they have known each other since they were teenagers. and then the last contact with him was a 9 21 am. on saturday morning he sent a text message to his mother and uh, in the text message. he says that he, he loves them his family. um, but he's in a container. there are a lot of terrorist outside, lots of gunshots outside. and it does not seem like they are going to make it out of their live friends and somebody is going to to the media for a sign of life that didn't know what had happened to him. but then a text message arrives. and i was just asking a rums wife last if um,

if she can send me one of his pictures. so i can uh so i can send it to you from there winning day. and um and uh, she says that they, they told them no officially that he's dead. um we use family. he knows already. he's one of the many killed in this attack. liberty romances that y'all have been has been missing since i'm us attacked keyboards in southern israel on saturday. he told us what the family knows about to disappearance. that's of course . thank you, christine for having us as. as you said, my sister and her family alone. her husband and guess and her daughter a 3 year old daughter. and when to their families, dinner for holiday, for holiday feast and friday evening,

they stayed the night there. um and woke up on saturdays for this madness. the people coming to their home and to the shelter that they have built for their family and just pull them out of their am in the house um or alons family. my my sister's husband um 2 of his parents, his sister as well. um they were taking a different stages. he was the 1st one um she was got into a car. um he thought that you know then and guess and um were hiding and adobe. okay. yeah. and but after a few minutes, they also were pulled into the same car. and there were all taken together and

towards the border. this is where our story have a little of magic in it. where they found this opportunity to just get out of the car, the car with free terrace armed and they started running. they started running the beginning, they had a chance to run without anyone behind them. but then they, they heard the terrace after that i'm starting to should work by and this is the, this is where, where they, they lost track of each of the way they went in different directions. larry, as i understand, i'm sparing you on because i do when it gets other aspects of of this is of the story. so have you heard any news? it's been 4 days now since your sister disappeared any indication of her whereabouts?

no. so because there is the spot of where you have from the, in, in a long got a part, a search and tree where he last saw her. there are teams that are looking in the field of trying to find any track, any sign of, of direction. we hope that maybe she's still hiding somewhere, but we've heard nothing. we know nothing. um. it's an innocent woman, a mother for a 3 year old child that is now here with me that we need to take care of her until her mother will be back. specifically here, and there is also a german citizen. um, so we did, i want to hear also from, from germany to put as much as much pressure to,

to know about a citizen of germany. that is, that's missing the unknown. yeah. saturday, larry, um, of course there's a lot of uncertainty. yeah, we saw in my colleague tanya cram is report that we had shortly before talking to for some families. the reality is their relatives have been found and then uses no, great because the renaissance have been found that i want to know that this is probably a very unfair question to you. but if your sister is being held somewhere in does that, does that give you a little bit more hope that that, that she is alive and bearing in mind, we don't know what's happening to so the hostages that have been taken into gaza the, this is why it's so important for us to talk about it and to bring it to the attention of the world. and so everyone will, will share about those people. so the attackers or keep them safe. they will have

them and hold them, but they will keep them safe because they'll know that they're missing just with israel and they're not just messing with these early government. it's not of more of an army, i guess, army innocent people. it could be if it's, if it's going to be a system of terror, this is going to be everywhere. and we hope that the voice of the world will help us keep you then safe. even though she held hostage somewhere, larry, um, we're reporting a lot about this ground defensive that we anticipate the israel will launch into, into the guys, and we've heard from us that they will kill some of the hostages will. they will kill the hostages that they've taken in retaliation. so that does that. does that worry you, knowing that this is the threat on your sister's life,

is indeed she is in, in casa, i must be honest and say that we are, we're interviewing here today because we feel it's very important to, to tell the story and to make the whole world aware, but i'm not much aware of what's going on in the, in the press and what's, what's, what we hear from us because i have a 3 year old to take care. yeah. um and i appreciate that. i don't want to not i, i totally understand that. um of course you've got a lot to deal with at the moment. um, larry, have you, um, there are other families at all in, in, in the situation that you're in now have you been in contact with them? is there some kind of a support system that you would have established to help each other at this moment?

so there are a few and we're trying the beginning. everything was chaos um as expected, i guess um nobody knew anything and we're still trying to figure out a lot of different channels of communication, different groups, not everything is very organized and everything is official. we haven't got a, i'll even not one official phone call from the store the same. we're looking for assistance or, or we don't have any new information, but we're on it. and this is one of the main things that we need the support of one another to try and push to try and get some sense into this crazy ration larry, i really appreciate your coming on to the program today to talk to us about this

and thank you so much for sharing that story with us, but is very real non whose sister is still missing since saturdays attacks. thanks so much again, larry, all the best to your family, being in the united states has confirmed, at least 11 of its citizens were killed in the tara attack on saturday, and believe americans are among the hostages being held by how much present joe biden has condemned via text by homeless and emphasized that the united states stands by israel. he says israel has the rights to defend itself. so not to share even more than 1000 civilians. schlosser, francisco slaughtered and israel long them at least 14 american citizens killed. parents butchered using their bodies to try to protect their children,

stomach, turn the reports of the baby's being killed, entire family slain. today, americans across the country are praying for all those families in ripped apart. lot of us know how it feels. elisa black hole in your chest, when you lose family feeling like you're being sucked in. the anger, the pain sense of hopelessness. this is what they mean by human tragedy. leaders of france, germany, it's as the terrorist attack came, as israel was beginning to forward, closer ties with arrow countries on the what on known as the abraham of quotes. this was started by when we do as president donald trump's administration. now, palestinians criticized these agreements saying they ignored their situation and failed to address their conflict with israel. and now they are off. is that the facing could spill over?

a mass is recent terrorist attacks on israel have led to questions about how it managed to carry out an assault of this scale. and if the consequences could spock wide conflict in the region for many years or wrong has be one of the main supporters of a mass and other palestinian is the midst minutes in groups providing both arms and financial aid. tyrone expressed support for the latest attacks. but denied involvement and volume will do some of them as below all via run back and heavily armed organization in neighboring lebanon is also a supporter of a mass mass. and has the law deem terrorist organizations by both germany and the united states. among others, a mass as late as a tax comes, relations have warmed for an israel and some arab countries,

the west has suggested the attacks may have been in part, an attempt to undermine this process. they're all in a long time. rivals saudi arabia had reported they've been close to signing an agreement with israel. it was hope this could lead to more arab and predominantly muslim countries, folding better relations with israel. the saudi government has said it will only normalize tides if there is major progress towards the creation of a palestinian state since 2020, as well as also normalize relations. under the abraham of quotes with united arab emirates by rain america, they joined jordan in egypt and having different magic relations with this row. so don has also taken steps towards normalized relations. so many palestinians, these agreements are seen a serving only the interest of israel and as an abandonment of the palestinian caused by arab states as well. the is really perspective dw is hans bronze has interviewed is rails a basset to germany. wrong proposal here in but an investigator closer there are

people who say that the events in israel not comfortable to 911 in the united states, is that a comparison? you? what support the answer is? yes. from the shock and but you know, saturday, the 7th of october will be a day is it is going to stay in memory as a black day, as the deadliest day that the state is in the nation state of the jewish people have ever encountered. those images, the state of israel, was basically established in order for those images and never to happen. we're going to react in such a manner that come us as a terrorist. 7 is ation with a terrorist infrastructure will not be there after we finish turning to

the situation. now in israel, at the moment, the gaza strip has been cut off from the outside completely, even including water and electricity. that is impacting more than 2000000 people is not a little bit harsh, i guess more than 2 a 1000000 people that are. so i'm going to stop here in the me. all drugs of health . this is you have to understand this is a paradigm shift between as humanity and barbarism civilization. and this, this is not the cycle of violence. this is not the 2 sides. this is one side, a terrorist organization that has decided to wage war against islam. and we will go after them everywhere. they are in order to eradicate this infrastructure of their that basically terrorized as not as the only user but the whole reach. but it appears to be necessary to take this 5 into gaza that will

cause more casualties, both for the israelis and for the palestinians. is that price necessary? is we'll pay a high price if we go in because we don't have another choice without soldiers. well, boys without goods, the price in addition to the price of what we have just space, we're going to do that because we cannot even think of living in this region where the own neighborhood is located. so what about peace? what are the chances for some kind of peace between israel and the palestinians and for the middle east as a whole? no one thinks of peace at this stage. we need to make sure the mass is taken out. believe me when they're out there many and you've seen that in the region. it's one piece we want peace at the end of the day. we're going to deal

with it. but now, let's go ahead and i'll go back, we haven't finished this, we're not, we're in the middle of the morning. we're not thinking of anything as but making sure that those who did it to us will not be for the has been some progress on the piece front and recent months between these rather than some arrow upstairs. and most recently that was talk about some kind of agreement between is rather and saudi arabia is all that finished office. you understand that this is not going to adventure, that the run and from us with, especially around. so this appalling shamile with saudi arabia and beside it to the story. so it's not going to eventually and come us at this stage in iran, we are now in the middle of the war. we may have to make sure that those who did it to us are going to be punished severely. and after that,

i'm sure that they're going to be many in the region that are going to move forward and creating a better made an ease and then possible a comprehensive piece. but now this is not the things that we're talking about sort of close or thank you very much for talking to a doctor that us and our residents, middle east analyst shawnee was on his joints. me out in the studio for more and that's shiny. i found that very interesting conversation, but just picking up on some of the things that we heard from the ambassador's a day. and perhaps maybe let's actually begin with what's a weight is really forces going into guys. but as we anticipate this ground offensive from nobody, you know, and neither does these really um military, and that's exactly the problem. that's part of the hesitance is probably part of the long preparation that we're seeing at how much anticipates is really

a ground operations. and this is how much this territory we need to keep in mind. garza has the, the overground city that we know the city, the, the, the refugee is kept up and so on. but on the lower ground in the there's a very elaborate system of tunnels and this is where most most militants headquarters and sometimes even daily operations going through. there are some the leaders of come us living in the got in the gaza strip. not many of them are in caught are, but those who are and how much are in the tunnels. they hardly seated. they have life because they are trying to escape these really air force bombings and so on. so, and this is also part of the wreckage. we're seeing the terrible uh, you know, pictures from gauze the way the is really monetary sees it is. they have to go through the upper garza level in order to make it into the lower level of gauze that it's not clear how it's gonna work out. and no doubt about one thing is it's

gonna be very brutal. it's going to be a lot of blood chad. it's not gonna be an easy task at all. and unfortunately, and in general, i'm looking at this, this crisis does it now under my, israel's attempts to grow his relations to develop more relations now with, with arab states like saudi arabia, for example. i think it's too soon to tell. i think it's quite clear that you know, we know the mazda is best buy and dispatch, as well as, as well as best buy you want. we're not quite sure how directly involved yvonne was in this attack. but there is no doubt that in america is rarely saudi exits, that we have been hurrying about in the last couple of months. is something you are on is not very fond of, is very worried off. it's also what keeps now the americans very much involved in the reach and they want to make sure you're on stage of pay. they want to keep his bi line, the northern front obtained as possible. and it could be that once this is all done and everybody is counting the many dads,

they will be some sort of initiative probably that are beloved by the americans, maybe other forces in the region. it's honestly, we don't see that in the political discourse right down israel, and i think it's a bit too soon to tell are shiny, what are the chances of, of the current conflict escalating into, into a wider world? well, we see the northern border and we were just mentioned hezbollah, that's the most critical, immediate worry for israel. you know, when it comes to this escalating even further, we've seen the live throughout the morning. the last exits in grizzle of small attacks. the morning was also a very lively exchange of artillery between israel and lebanon, and his mamma. so this might get out of hand. we are not quite sure how coordinated is his ball out with her mazda in the sense that they did not launch and attack simultaneously. with his ball and maybe just keeping israel occupied and tense is good enough for him us and for his bhalla. but we could be that they also

interested in an escalation um, because one of the major things that that happened on saturday was that israel's deterrence, which was its biggest weapon, strategic weapon, you know, standing in this part of the me least has crumbled. and if that means that how much is feeling and bowls and more gutsy, we might see more of that coming into the region more, more escalation into this conflict. right. and let's just look at the, the, the days pepsi from the hours ahead of us. so we know that israel is preparing for what we anticipate will be around defensive massing troops, some $300000.00. that the board is what's on the calendar. we've got friday coming up in the end, the invitations that we were just talking about on a, the hoody day out friday. what, what, what, what does the next few days look like? what's ahead of us. yeah, we need to keep in mind the new, the southern part of israel is still not completely clear from how much maintenance is really, is, are, you know, is when the forces are fighting that we've just talked about the northern border.

israel has that the eastern west of it, which is bordering the west bank and whatever happens there, we've seen a lot of very strict regulation against the palestinians into westbank. officially, they are not part of most, but there's a lot of a public support to the causes that how much is pushing. and of course, a great enthusiasm from the great success of how much of head and we will get to seen on friday at mosque day, in jerusalem. and in the west bank. if this is also uh, getting out of hand, you know, a lot of tents, alertness in the whole region. too much julia to be seen. yeah. well, let's see that the, for the moment shiny resign is our but least analyst. thank you. of actually seeing or, and this is the, the, the news continuing coverage of israel as well with how much of the top of the mileage you in my clinic. there's spanish, you can buy the

self sufficient power to the people in this village and talk to the installation of renewable energy on another unit. and in many other loops around the made in germany in 90 minutes on dw the

d. as in the confrontation, this is your vision of the combat. assuming you're gonna apply the undisputed champion tough political tools, you're trying to frighten people, so it's a fine. everybody understands that except you enter the conflict zone and join tim sebastian as a whole. the powerful to accounts, this is a big failure, whichever way you like to spin conflict among the world in progress. a pop calls to everyone who wants to know more about the topics that concern us to this office stories the on the head line with back inside in depth interviews and see

the world in progress. the school's we say there is never giving up every weekend on d. w. can you hear a night we are all set. i'm gonna want to entice me. 7 to read you the story behind the news, we all about unbiased information, feel free mind. so do to mention done the,

the news light from berlin, the depths to times in is around as the full extent of sad to those templates, the tax comes to light. the ministry size is the number of people killed, has reached the 1200 and that most of them were civilians gone down in their homes . all the streets in gaza. whole neighborhoods are being flattened as these rarely steps up experienced products on the tennessee. remo them 900 had been reported that and your parents, president of the media to the landscape, presents brussels to agitate.
