eli cohen. he's also expected to hold towards tomorrow, with the pen to send you and president lockwood of us. and i am now joined by our correspondent teneo claimant, who is in jerusalem for us at this time time you, it's good to see you. what is the mood in israel on this day 5 of israel's will with him us? it was not so easy really to talk about the general move. was that what you've seen in the past days? especially through some uh on the east side on the west side, but also in television in other cities it's, it's very, very common. people don't want to be outside too much shop, sorry. closing early on this really worried about of you know, what is going on and what is that to come and even here we are now standing in the fields. we are on the way down south to south israel and you see just because

driving very process, always to know the is to, to hear if the error it's, i've been going also has been a bit less this morning. but in general, it's more something that moved along is where it is, but also about how the students about of what is happening here. can you tell us more about the emergency war time governments that i'm going to submit now has now formed with the opposition? a lot of things such a unity, government or emergency government. so also cold here would not have been possible just a few days ago. the one of the opposition leaders of any guns he joins no benjamin netanyahu. he had refused to do so. and that was because the country was really deeply divided over the plans to implement it, to this with overall um, by this far right. religious government to help in protest since january every week, thousands and thousands visit ladies went to the street. and now with this government is doing a not all of the positions he does have joined. but what they're trying to show is

to, to reassure is various that they are in charge because they're also a lot of questions being asked, how that could happen. that could happen, would unfold it uh, on, on such a date. so basically, we're also seeing this a more cabinet that's part of the secure to cabinet. and the setup is interesting because it's old defense ministers, foreman, defense when is does a cheese of stuff. so this should give you another message. we're taking care of this. now we're coming together uh, doing this for washington's top different match. he's arrived in israel. what do we know about anthony been const visits when he arrived? no, it is run. as he said, it's a, it's a, it's a visit in support of it's well, but you will be talking to the is ready to is ready. efficiency also will be talking to part of sitting in a present a bus. of course, you understand, of course, policy and present the boss. he's in ramallah, he's not, you know,

in charge of what's happening in gaza at the moment. but what's up until the blinking the do here is basically have you meet those officials to be expecting him to talk about military assistance. that is this aircraft carrier also on its way. that has also been some equipment that has been arriving from the u. s. and i think what's also important to say a is he wants to possibly talk about trip preventing a wider conflict. you know, there were some comments being made, you know, wanting other parties that they shouldn't join in this situation. and another topic as well as those, some american citizens on account of a for and also possibly some hospitals have been taken into the asa. and that is certainly also a topic of for the secretary of state china. i would like to to and i'll focus to gaza right now. we know that the night was dark as the power supply broke down yesterday. just how dire is the situation that well,

it's very di, it's also hard to describe. i managed to talk to some people that i know in gaza, and one of them is now in a, in a you and school, a many people from the, from the outskirts of in the east. they had to move for him. you such and such a me it's already the 4th or 5th time. know they have to do this and leaving the homestead this and they had to leave immediately on such a day. he doesn't really know what happened to his tony's from bed time. so this is one of the stories and people are very worried. what is there to come? electricity is down yesterday the a power station shut down because it's route has uh stopped uh, sending fuel into gaza. also, it has a power producer that supplying parts of the electricity to gather that has been stopped. also, of course the cam. so i'm crossing which is a crossing where a food items and other items come in as close. so it's a very dire situation for people there. it because of course as strikes are

continuing by israel also some roof is still coming out and people don't know where to go to see. it shows that it's basically, there are no safe rooms or a safe zones, the right. that's all correspondents, tonya crane, the reporting from jerusalem. thank you, tonya. the gods. the results are lacking electricity, often with only power station ran out of fuel people using generates as to pa their homes. but israel's blockade means they to will soon run dry food. water and medical supplies are also running. the emergency vehicles arrive non stop transporting wounded police teenagers to hospital some gaza. medical workers must act fast to safe as many interest as possible. well, there is to hold for some families that their relatives can be saved. too many others

left to grapple with the in an effort to h serial. instruct him garza, the police student and representative to the you pleaded function monitoring system . we will continue the contact with everyone, including the security council, and so that the international community to show that it's responsibility and stepping to the, to the picture. and in putting an end to this onslaught against our people. but more importantly, that would require, of course, sending humanitarian assistance to the 2000000 and point 3 of palestinians who live in the gaza strip of it. that has to be a humanitarian intervention in order to uh, to avoid a looming catastrophe. a kind of his words, the world health organization,

bone of dependent medical supplies, part of the con, the more trauma supplies, we need intravenous fluids renew, manage use. we need that a set of equipment when did the surgical equipment and so all the different supplies, equipment, medicines that you may leave for, for major traumatic injuries, what they think 10 words, chest williams don't know what it is. uh, uh, fractured lens and the set itself as diplomatic efforts to pumps unitarian chords as to people whom does a continue. there is fear that for many police students, copeland notarized, soon enough. and for more on this, we're going to open out to jerusalem until to china low who is both space and with that the legion refugee council. thank you for coming onto the program. the organization is on the ground in guys. so what are you hearing from the as? yeah, so i just spoke about 30 minutes ago to my colleague in guy the he said that last

night was an extremely difficult night. the bombardments were continuing all throughout the night. he told me of a number of airstrikes that resulted in mass civilian casualties this morning, or last night. rather the house behind where my colleague was staying was hit with an air strike. thankfully he and his, my colleague and his family were unharmed. but because of the blackout, they were unable to even clean up safely the glass that and chattered from their windows because they just could not see in the dark this morning you describe to me challenges and just getting around the gaza shortages and bread being able to to make the way me go make it to be able to, to navigate the stories which are filled with rubble and difficult to navigate. the situation in gaza is truly unbelievable arrives. of the humanitarian prizes were facing. yeah,

china and part of the reason this is so acute is because it's, it's apparent that no aid is getting into into guys, but because of the blockade, what do you see or if this blockade continues? i mean, we are syringe, an even larger humanitarian catastrophe than the one that we're already witnessing right now. uh, the supplies in garza are very limited. there already was a siege on garza, even prior to this total siege that was imposed over the last week. and so what we're hearing from our colleagues is that supplies are dwindling. food prices are already on the rise. bakeries are saying that they have less than a week supply of, of material of, of a food and, and ingredients. i mean, this is, this is literally going to be 2300000 palestinians trapped inside of gaza with no relief in sight. unless, unless there's a,

unless there's an opening of humanitarian core doors for the entry of, of 8 another provisions. china, i wanted to talk specifically here about the a, the, a that's needed in respect to the emergency response, helping the wounded out as the strikes and the blogs went on, the territory continues. what needs to happen to be able to save civilian lives. i mean, 1st and foremost, there needs to be electricity restored to the god, the strip. hospitals are operating on emergency generators and we'll soon run out of supplies and fuel for those. we need medical equipment, medical supplies. yesterday there was the announcement that all of the hospital beds in garza were full. i mean, this is the humanitarian catastrophe. that is happening before us and there needs to be assistance both in terms of restoration of water, electricity, fuel, food medicine, access to medicine,

and other medical supplies. they all need to be let into gaza immediately. all right, china low is with the norwegian refugee council. she's talking to us from jerusalem, we appreciate your coming onto the program. china, thank you. or thank you. and now we are going to go to guys the way his shop mana is standing by for us. he's a communications officer with the international committee of the red cross joints, me by phone. it's very difficult right now to establish a good connections. so thank you so much for coming onto to the program. if you can hear me, i'd like to start by just asking you what you're seeing on the ground, the way you are of what you're seeing is absolutely unprecedented. we are witnessing attack a tester fee of, of hope, a crisis and the humanitarian situation. a complete shut down of the sol power

plant. so if you got this trip that feeds households or what's left of the neighborhoods and the infrastructure beating them, but also and hospitals across the whole because it's hard to factor. so we'll translate, sports or sector is paralyzed at the moment in the bass areas of the go through. this would lead if you wish, and it's like there's still an environmental crisis because sewage is on the tool and mixing use with the, with the water. you know, if i structure, so this is also a name and then the risk that we are alarmed by. but focusing on the medical situation and gather the trip, which is the catastrophe. 60 minutes deal. tell the pass code for immediate entry of medical supplies, equipment and fuel to run. it keeps a comfortable running and there are hundreds of seriously injured patients who are connected to oxygen supply. there are newborns who are living inside incubators as

one of the hospitals that include that incubator got gabby's. and that's the section in pacific was part time. we have with this targeting medical stuff yesterday for of the emergency medical team up the dallas time at christmas society which meet blue like directly targeted and they were killed while to conducting their i mean human attack, imagery, risk giving injuries. and they also those now are suffering from the shortage in the medical supplies. melisha not most of the it is um i, i just want to to come in there and continue our conversation. i'm hearing you say that you, you've witnessed medical stopping directly to all this is that would be of course a very serious allegation over that. perhaps you can expand on that but, but also while you're at his, um, what would you say is most needed right now in, in, in gaza that all seem to think and together now as is train collation

and to and to allow the humanitarian aid fuel to admit, escape medication control, got this trip. this is the most pressing need now to continue saving lives and to prevent the human counting situation from further deterioration and to complete full cry. and how long, how long do you think? what is your assessment about how long civilians can hold on without help? there are 2 families under the bravo. uh, some of them lost some of their peers like left the whole bunch stuff. so having them back, some are still the unreachable by the civil defense. because the lack of equipment and the lack of safe access to this location. so that's one side of the story. this is billions inc. i like entire neighborhood square asked dr. wade without clear safe packages. and some of like, how does the families have to relocate for 2 or 3 times in one day? speaking safe haven, there's a crisis whole, and there's actually just like

a sense of safety and security. and now families see are for the children if they're going to within the next mark. yeah, he's um, what do you need right now from the international community in, in, in this regard as, as you're talking to us he. so i'm, we can see pictures of the devastation in garza, we see buildings that had been raised less than that. and as they are telling us, they're all potentially families and, and to some of this rebel, what would be a message to the international community and from the a red cross operating and gaza right now. yes uh there has to be a full respect of the international team attorney law, the codes for the protection of the building and facility in properties medical missions. uh, this is an also an infrastructure that uh, in 4th is invited to continue feeding people with water energy,

medical healthcare. this is a, the most concerned would be out here. see, and this is what we have been calling for and but since what we have been trying on, nina force would be the both sides of the conflict. the billing is not paid to the coast every single time and ever gotten disconnection. they should be not paying uh, you know, the price for the failure of political pollution to end this escalation that has been lasting for decades. we have been existing here since 1967. and as we id. okay, back to read, we have never witnessed that large scale of devastation in a matter of a few days. so what we are asking for is the 4 with the trains of finals to projected billions protect somebody and priorities to allow the medical mission to reach safely to those who are injured. and most importantly, not also to allow the entry of the human attorney of a quieter litigation to phase 2300000 people.

right. that is the voice of some minus. he is communications officer with the international committee of the red cross talking to us one because we appreciate that here. so i'm an older base to you and your colleagues as you continue the work you're doing in casa and here in germany, the chance of what i've schultz as urge palestinian president must move a bus to purely condemned the homeless attacks on israel calling his silence. so far, shameful, in his speech to the german parliament, sholtes also pledged his support for israel saying germany's own the place right now is that israel size, he said israel must have the capacity to defend itself. adding that the terrorist group, i'm not leaving the office only poverty and misery for the palestinian people and got side by side. you have done to get my so to be condemned. the violence of the terrors of this argument alex law. and we say very clearly is right l

house the raleigh, to onto international, to defend its citizens against such a population. at the moment, there is certainly one place which i, many, the place customer side by side with israel. this is what we mean when we say the security of the x ray is telling me there's on that for and i'm now joined by our chief political aid associated cliff now who is standing by for us at the jimmy parliament mission a. we were listening to, to the gentleman chance to speak to i'm interested to know what you make of what you heard from him today. so it was really interesting. it's really the 1st time that germany, that the germans also spelled out in detail what that reason of stage. it's a bit of a difficult translation that to use real security being at the core of durham and

state code will mean in concrete terms, particularly in this hour of need for israel, and that will include mil to hardware delivery. so the is really said wanted and that we've already heard from the german defense minister who's with nato and brussels today that and they will like to be the delivery of municipal will ships. and there's also talks of germany actually hunting back some of its least drones that it has leased from israel. and also there was a pledge is for diplomatic efforts, germany, the germantown soft will, is meeting at the could tarry e mere today here in. but then there will be no press statements, it will be no press conference and not only highlights and the importance of this meeting, and also how delicate the balance will be, of course, optimal with a cut topping. one of the major finances of how much mission that we or you just mentioned to minutes not to i'm just,

i'm not so useful via tag go from us on and published. and then israel also has repercussions in our corporation ways, the palestine. where is the key a condemnation of parent wrist violence by the president that bus and the palestinian authority, the you say your silence is a disgrace of the stand on good. cuz sometimes it comes to them up with an o. i would development cooperation with the palestinians will be re examined and we will see how a project can that support piece in the region and support the security of israel. i miss shayla some very strong remarks from the german chancellor. they about the palestinian authorities. yes,

absolutely. that has been this very resulting silence. there has not been any condemnation. the us secretary of state on to the blinking is due to meet my, who the boss. and i should expect that that would be some pressure applied it to us to. it was of condemnation, at the very least, we also had that germany will make any humanitarian assistance also to palestinians . conditional of is ready approval both politically, but also the fact to israel controls what goes into the gaza strip anyway. so israel will fully be in charge there, but there's also a re assessments here in germany as to make sure that money doesn't go into the wrong hands within the gaza strip. that would be the worst case scenario. if a german assistance would to finance him, us mentioned it earlier, you made the point about to several meetings that the german jobs so that has lined

up that starting today with the in their meetings here with. but let's have a listen to what more he said about that, and we can pick up off of this next on. but i have very close contact with mister r. c. c, the exemption, head of state. and he also has the chance of communication with garza. i'm going to talk to the tech as president, mr. edwin. i'm also going to see representatives of cuts are. they are very input, les mediators, and they use this capacity. all 3 of us come play and then import drone and de escalate in this situation. and the critics of such contacts and those who say we shouldn't be speaking to the english, let me just tell them it would be absolutely irresponsible in that situation. not to use all the channels that we can use.

you know, we do that in very close coordination with these, well, you know, we do it for those people who were at the biome us mission at just finally as we, as we bring our conversation to occurs, what more can we expect from these meetings? you did say earlier that they, it's not going to be a press statement, so to say off to it's but at the very least we expect and behind close tools talks on how to assist those hostages that have been taken. also the from take diplomatic efforts taking place at school level to contain this conflict. and we also heard from the germans, hans, a warning against has ballade joining into the fighting out of lebanon. and that is the big see, see here that this could become a conflict also, that involves iran. we also heard salsa sholtes say that without the support of iran at this attack, by how much would not have been possible. so that maps out just how high the stakes

in the region at the moment. right? that is the deputies chase international. it is a state assist now at the gym in parliament for us here in berlin. thank you. michelle to the off to how much this terrorist attacks at the weekend, the jewish world congress is concerned about the security of jews in europe, in germany, the jew sports club, call people and has stopped playing matches and secures images at jewish institutions, such as synagogue, some schools have been wrapped up, the shock is still deep and some all parties marilyn mens is worried about his friends and family in israel. he's the director of the i'm a skunk education center in frankfort. managing the, grew up near the gaza strip and he's still in shock about what's happened is your phone and i heard about a girl while a woman trying to follow the who grew up on like a boy and moved near the border

i'm sort of worried about their childrens. we have to admit that it's fine. i'm more alarmed than i've ever been in 37 years in disposition of experience or provide for violent attacks, and that's not true that you have on mental and is 2 year old son attends a pre, a service in frankfort synagogue. more police are supposed to make people feel safer, but to day is really miss in germany. i feel safe for the never, especially compared to israel is that my whole family, my friends in israel are an x, a central danger and they live in. i'm not intimidated by some people on the street to demonstrate for a month because i get them full. that's not my problem. as a jew in germany it's, that's a problem for societies and the non business equipment that gives us is that a soft possible marilyn mental hopes that piece will soon return to israel. and you're watching dw news up next concept. so with it would all match that is the full prime minister of israel. you can check out our coverage at any time on dw com on our social media channels were at dw,
