9:30 am
to the, to the big judge, and in putting an end to this onslaught against our people. but most importantly, that would require, of course, sending humanitarian assistance to the 2000000 and point 3 of palestinians who live in the gaza strip of that has to be a humanitarian intervention. in order to uh, to avoid a looming catastrophe, a confuse words, the world health organization born of dependent medical supplies, part of the company, the more trauma supplies, we need intravenous fluids. we need managers, we need and then a set of equipment. when did the surgical equipment and so all the different supplies, uh, equipment medicines which you mainly uh for for major traumatic x rays. what they thing 10 words, chest williams. a don't know what it is. uh, uh,
9:31 am
fractured lens and the set itself as diplomatic efforts to open the humanitarian chords as to people and as a continue, there was fee of that for many of those students help and not arrived soon enough. well, earlier i was joined by a spokesperson for the is reading military, masha mitchells on. i asked her if israel is going to open an aide cargile into casa, the coordination of humanitarian age of this area is being discussed. the decision will be made by the political echelon after they've assessed the situation right now. the idea is focused on securing the border and targeting come up, no 2 targets within the god script. and as you do that, miss missiles, i'm going over talking about an area that has densely populated because of that is how are you distinguishing between how much terrace your enemy and innocent civilians to yeah,
9:32 am
yes is very is protocols in place to minimize the hard to civilians, but you could ask what measures the state when they infiltrated villages and killed over a 1000 people over 2 days? the idea is targeting how much military targets the problem is. and we've been saying this for years that how much is hiding behind the people. if a terrorist organization is hiding miss styles and launchers and i hit sion underneath kindergartens and schools and last it'd become a lot more difficult one civilians. the idea is still attempting to do that because we care about the citizens of god a lot more than they do. but our 1st priority is to protect our country and to make them pay for the great and state that they made on saturday morning. understand to be so, but he is right and also has the responsibility to abide by the rules of engagement . and that is you have an obligation to protect civilians in gaza
9:33 am
again, very as protective measures in place. the idea is attempting to minimize civilian harm in god that but you're striking terrorist target. and if there is a terrorist this we miss out at israel, you will be struck. miss middleton, how far are you and your efforts to free of the hostages that have been taken into guys, but can you give us an update on that? there are military efforts to finish identifying the bodies, something that will only be got happening and they are to as old as we create the southern area mostly of terrorists and it became more or less secure to move around there. so families right now are trying to identify their level at the asked me immeasurably more difficult by the way. come, awesome. now, what are those people people burn, decapitated as so we're taking dna samples wedding, so our bodies are identified and the word gathering the final number of hostages
9:34 am
and trying to get the locations to see how we can move forward. so if i understand correctly, you're not sure exactly how many hostages are in gaza. we have a general number, we're trying to exact the site, right? you're having to fight how mazda and gaza, as you, as you pointed out, you're also having to defend against attacks, potentially attacks as well, by his bullet in the north israel, in a good position or does israel and have the capacities to be able to essentially fight a wall onto frontier because that's what it looks like. over the last few days since the beginning of the war as well as have the most efficient recruitment of reserves . and it's history, 300000 people reported for duty and 48 hours, not. 1 of those included into the southern front, some of them moved up more. so the 9th is the vision of the idea of fully prepped and ready for any great, because it's way so far. the adf is operating in the war,
9:35 am
and yet relatively contained or been some incidents that have been dealt with your present to be planning a ground defensive. um, i would be interested if you could tell us a little bit more about perhaps when we can expect to see that happening. but also what do you need from your western allies right now in terms of support to be able to carry out the background defensive. i will leave the timing of the ground offensive and the decision itself to the political push along. we have security cabinet that has been presented all possible military options to make that decision, considering all the factors. but right now what we're focusing on is during the border and we're stabilizing our voice and how we can do that. we have a service that needs to be trained and perhaps for all further options on the point about securing the board as others still have must militants in israel. this is the very few and they will be met with idea flyer shortly just yesterday. we have
9:36 am
an increase in close to barre. 3 a terrorist were killed in that engagement with idea of forces, we are placing our forces. i'm going to be able takes area of supervision around the border and anyone who tries to get close to the fence and angel, 3 inches, really surgery will be shot. miss mitchell said, we know that the state of go, as we hearing it from israel's political leadership, is to eradicate homeless. my question then is when you are done with how much in, in gaza you be left with a vacuum? does israel intent to revoke you? probably guys within is the plan that is really troops will have to remain in, in, in gaza for, for an extended period off of that operation. a lot of domains with a larger strategy of the idea. again, as i said, there's a military options have been presented to the security cabinet and we just want to
9:37 am
make sure that her mom has no ability to attack is real likely that on saturday, that was the deadline for the state of israel. since the day of its formation. well that was israel's defense for suspense best, and masha mitchells and speaking to me earlier, a reminder now of our top story and the unfolding situation in israel and guys, of course he's in gaza say more than a 1000 people have been killed, as is really a strikes on the 2 or 3 continue you in phase nearly 340000 people had been false. indeed their homes in gaza. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu. now back by a new national unity government has filed, in his words, crushed from us, following its unprecedented attack at the weekend of and now many of the hundreds of thousands of displaced people in gaza or seeking help from the
9:38 am
united nations dw, visited a family at one un for city see where assistance is certain to be stretched to the limits. in the coming days. they are 13 in all honey algola and her immediate family. they found a degree of safety at a un run school not far from the egyptian border. on the 1st day of the work. so what is what we saw missiles flying overhead. once we get out of our neighborhood is dangerous. it's on the eastern side and we were afraid to stay home. god knows how we got out, but we escaped. are circumstances are difficult and all this is not a solution, as the children need milk and diapers, nra can offer us anything. highly of this is our 4th day. the school. i have a high blood pressure and diabetes and i can't get medication, but that of hundreds of thousands had fled like
9:39 am
a honey. i'll google his family most but not all before their homes and neighborhoods were reduced to rubble. is realize retaliating for the cross border terrorist attacks and hostage taken by him us. these rarely defense forces say they are focused on how much related targets under uh, the united nations relief and works agency is providing shelter and spaces like this. it's tight and getting tighter, but for them, honey, oh google has family. it seems safer than their home. when i called that can be on the they were large numbers of palestinians in under schools. we provide them with healthcare, food. we provide clean boards and also psychological support. we would like to know the, the numbers of growing hugely when was capacity is for a 150000 displace palestinians. and beyond that and it is a big problem, a financial problem. the problem with absorbing all of these people got the results of the problem is the people needed to help them in the done beyond the limited
9:40 am
space and the un displacements centers, each of them is impacted by as well as complete siege of the gaza strip. it's cut off food, water medicines, and electricity. the people that were living in a safe place of the war broke out. the strikes began without warning, and we were forced to leave. we walked about 7 kilometers until we arrived to you, hoping to find a safe place. it's not like that i'm looking at and this is not suitable for living . there is no board and no food. the 3rd system is broken. it's not suitable for liberal around the yeah, that's about whom honey. oh google and her family will have to get by in a 6 meter wide room as they wait for an end to what could be come. a drawn out siege and war several is really keyboards. communities came under attack by how must militants among them would cause i as of the people, it's near the border with guys a way around 100 people were killed and dozen small taken hostage. most residents
9:41 am
of the agricultural community where a young families with children go to the houses, wrecked cars and families killed in the homes. these really minute tree reclaims the cause as a cable. it's from home on 3 days off to the militants. first on to the village, near the cause of buddha, where they began setting fire to houses indiscriminately shooting residents and taking thousands of people hostage just normal citizens that want to take their breakfast. and this all of these children and the cut some of the heads. it's worth 15 to see, it's very difficult to see that,
9:42 am
but we must remember who is the enemy and what our mission mission is, the justice, where is the right side and all the world needs to be behind our supply visits, be a tackling clause. i have been brought to cuba. it's trying new tele vive residents here. a trying to help them with the grief and to process what they experienced. they came into every home. they came in to every, every room, every place. uh those they couldn't to take out and murder, they would burn the house with them inside so they can die. they shot children, babies, old people anywhere, and no one was safe and made the 1st victim was a 9 year old woman who was sitting on the porch. so let him come in and she got shot. we were in this panic room for i think about over 30 hours and then they broke uh, windows starting, it started shooting everywhere. i think at some point they saw at the door of the
9:43 am
time it is unclear as they will be able to return home to call as a small community described by a resident as a piece of paradise. no noise in ruins you inside for she general antonia quoterush has quote on how much to release or hostage is being held in gaza. i'm us has abducted thousands of people including children and the elderly . many hostages were taken at an outdoor music festival. some of the families still have new news about their loved ones. sheet i have one is a 27 year old phone, student from tennessee, 11 members of her family are missing and presumed kidnapped should all, once the european union to pressure israel to find and risk is a hostages state of use, rosie the shod, spoke to her in brussels, she wrote welcome to dw, can you tell us what you know about your relative so far?
9:44 am
um, so basically, on saturday morning we got the news that the computer was rated by from us. and we lost contact with 11 of our family members that he'd in their shoulders. and since then, haven't heard anything, maybe seen just to be someone of to come and present a video. but the last contact and we got 2 pieces of information that led us to believe that their houses were broken down and were empty. so now we believed that during the cause of script, hopefully alive. how you feel so many family members. so to information or it's hard to communicate this and be in touch with my feelings because it takes a lot of strings to tell the story for my cousins who might be orphans for the the young kids for you were to not tour 8 and 3 years old, my cousins, kids,
9:45 am
it's very hard to put it towards the just i can just say that the yeah, you really don't wish it to anyone to be in the situation. thank you for trying to put it into words for us. and you've also been put to get into words here at the european parliament were in brussels. you want to put those words into actions. what would you, what's your ask? what's your request of parliamentarians under your opinion and general time is 15, the clock is ticking. every minutes we spend, your talking is time where injured people might be dying. my family made me dying and we feel abandoned right now. and the fact that we are here is, is a desperate act to ask for more help to, to solve the situation. because our government is, is, is busy with the stuff that are not in my family right now. and i
9:46 am
want my family back. you said you wouldn't wish this feeling on anyone we both deal with the most likely i come here is that there will be more, it isn't bloodshed, particularly in gaza among palestinians. how do you feel about that? i was born in these ro, i mean he's rarely by birth, but that i care for other people. i want this to stop. i want to stopping in these relative stuff and i want to bumping in guys have to stop. i want some of these kids from here, from guys, up from the west bank all over the whole field safe. this is the basic human right . this is a very important message. i just, everyone suffers because of it everyone. it's not one sided. and people have to remember this, even in this situation, in the hardest time,
9:47 am
this is time to remember it. sure happened. thank you so much for speaking to dw, and i'm sharing your story with us. a reminder off our top story now and the unfolding situation in israel and gaza ortiz in the cause of say, more than a 1000 people have been killed, as is really a strikes on the territory. continue the you and say's maybe 340000 people have been forced to leave their homes in casa. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu now backed by a new national unity government has filed in his words, to crush from us following its unprecedented attack. at the weekend, the us army, secretary of state antony blinkin has landed in tennessee of as part of a wise, at least to, to display washington's solidarity with his israel and us president joe biden, save his administration,
9:48 am
is working to secure the release of americans who are among the hostages taken by him us by it and says he spoke again to prime interest in it now who entered israel to observe the rules of war. he said to us would help to make sure that israel, as all the help if needs they said we're going to work closely with our partners. it is and around the world to insure israel has what is needed to defend the citizens of cities and to respond to these attacks. so as i said yesterday, my commitment is a security and safety jury's people is on shaky. united states has israel's back with the president by the game, throwing us support behind israel. but all, most also, excuse me, urging some restraints. we all stayed up the special correspond, washington and abraham. how biden's comments are being interpretation? so it's a message that we've heard the us president make for the 2nd time. jared,
9:49 am
yesterday, when he addressed the nation in this in, in that speech where we saw the secretary, anthony blink, and on one side and vice president campbell harris on the other. he said that, you know, democracies have to abide by rule of law even in situations like this, where there is a war. he said it again today at a meeting with jewish at the community leaders at the white house. and this, this message of restraint is, you know, as we see the, the, the offensive on guys that increase it intensity. and as we see the picture of the tool that this is got taking on civilians, not just president joe biden, but we've also heard of the un secretary general, you know, urging israel in it's offensive to, to, to read out a terrorist and gaza to take into consideration the lives of innocent civilians in
9:50 am
the gaza strip. it's a very densely populated area. we also know that the us administration is trying to work out some sort of humanitarian cory door that would allow civilians to exit the gaza strip. but that is something that is still in, in, in the very early stage of negotiation. we also, we know that 22 americans have up until this point lost their lives in this flare up of violence. but there are also boobies to be hostages. within the hostages that were taken in the 2 guys are that are us citizens. and so of course that is also a concern for the us administration. a dw special correspondent to abraham reporting from washington that now president biden was speaking off to me saying was anita as of america's jewish community. many american jews have close ties to israel and are deeply upset about what happened. dw went to meet some of them and
9:51 am
feel what they had to see. the these are days of morning for the american jewish community. the united states is home to the largest jewish population outside of israel. on this night at the nation's capital, hundreds gathered to seek comfort in one another. the, it's communal and we're all grieving together and we're all trying to gather the music. i sing one of the rabbi said we need to sing and i thought, yeah, and everybody here has an attachment is real like we for example, our children go to camp, which is really counsellors. one of them was killed wheeler this morning. so everybody's been touched by it and it's a very difficult time because there's no question. the american support is crucial . president has been unequivocal. that is support in somebody's use,
9:52 am
i think set the tone for all, all politics and, and, and every corner of united states by using his disposition and being so resolute. israel is america's closest ally in the middle east. the west was the 1st to recognize israel state 1st, and it was on those close ties that president joe biden drew upon in his message of unwavering support for israel. so in this moment, we must be crystal clear. we stand with israel. we stand with this rule, we will make sure 0 has what it needs to take care of, and citizens defend itself or respond to this attack. and there's no justification for terrace to that end. the u. s. has dispatched it to me, these newest and most advanced carrier, the u. s. s. barrels are ford to help ford, often escalation of the conflict. advanced weaponry has landed in israel as well.
9:53 am
but beyond the necessity of supporting a strong response, analysts barbara slaven says she hopes that behind the scenes calls for restraint and the importance of preserving civilian lives are being made by the administration has done a good job so far, of conducting the atrocities that were committed calling them pure evil in this hour of israel's extreme need. i am hopeful that they are also private messages that are being sent to the israelis not to let their desire for vengeance overcome both their morality and their strategic thinking. because there is going to be a need to pick up the pieces when this is all over. and there has to be interlocutors for the as rallies, the united states and others to try to restore some kind of calm and to project
9:54 am
some kind of positive future for the palestinians going forward. otherwise, we're going to see this, this har, a movie, over and over again. for now, although the ongoing horrors we heavily on the hearts of the jewish communities, there's an attempt to your to stand united. i'm sorry in grief. but in who for team of to i must, has terrorist attacks at the we can the jewish world. congress is concerned about the security of jews in europe in germany. the jewish sports club, my copy berlin, has stopped playing matches and security measures ad jewish institutions such as synagogues and schools have been wrapped up. the shock is still deep and some are worried. megan mens is worried about his friends and family in israel. he's the director of the on the skunk education center in frankfort.
