[000:00:00;00] the, you're watching dw names coming to live from berlin is rails deadline for safe passage through gaza elapses. time is up on what israel says was a safe escape route to reach southern gaza as it urges people to leave the north with air strikes, pounding the territory. a large scale is really as sol could begin at any moment. and as people in gaza feel been deadly affects of those air strikes, the world health organization says is relative activation order could be

a death sentence for some fuss and israel, growing anger over the hostages being held in casa. some families say the government should focus on free and the captives before stepping up military action against them. off the inquiry. richardson, thank you very much for joining us. the window that israel has given civilians in northern garza to evacuate to the south has now come to an ends. thousands of palestinians are still fleeing the territory along what israel called a se fruit, but is rarely army is carrying out air strikes elsewhere. it says it is preparing to attack garza by land, sea, and air with the goal of eliminating come off as leadership. a large scale a sold could begin at any moment. we have our correspondence on your kramer reporting from our start in southern israel, near the cause of border,

and we've asked or if there are clear indications today that israel may sue launch is ground defensive in gaza. i mean, this is what everybody is, of course, waiting for the timing is unclear. there will be an element of surprise still. so everybody's expecting it's um, it seems to be rather imminent, but we don't know. the army said that they plan to implement a wide range of operational offensive plans and the why the ground operation. they said that in the statement, it is certainly also made more difficult by the fact that they are over a 100 hostages being held in gaza. so it is not, uh, you know, just going in for a ground operation, but it's not just the south that is where it is, are looking at. they're also looking up north because in recent days i have seen a lot of exchanges. all fire also with has going on again yesterday and also now with a syria. and we understand that the u,

the u. s. was sending another carrier that's quite unusual to the eastern mediterranean to support as well. again, also to show and to probably in a message, to other actors here in the region, not to take part in this war. and that was our correspond antonio kramer, reporting for us there. meanwhile, the world health organization says that the is really order forcing people to evacuate hospitals in northern cause a is a potential death sentence for vulnerable people. civilians were told they had until 1 pm local time today to travel to the south of gaza. beyond the why do you guys are wet ones? many displaced cousins have taken refuge that united nation schools in the south, but food, water and medical supplies are running low. of israel's military has been attacking targets. a police are linked to moss. i'm off says over 70 civilians were killed in

an air strike on one highway. the mood at garza's el cheapo hospital is overflowing work is dec corpses in the parking. lots outside bodies are coming in faster than relatives, can claim them. and the hospital has run out of space for the remains. israel's booming campaign on the territory of 2300000 has leveled entire neighborhoods, killing mold in 2000 palestinians and wounding many more. some of the injured being treated in hospital car doors. many of them are children, a shortage of beds, medical supplies and power outages have left hospitals in the north, struggling to cope of the world. health organization says flossing, the critically able to move south amounts to a death sentence. it also says the evacuation order has left exhausted, health work is facing

a choice between to bends and in patients or staying behind and putting their own lives at risk. israel's evacuation order means the clinic became a shelter for more than 35000 refugees. many have setup makes shift tents in the front of the building using compet, cousins, and whatever they could salvage from their homes, about the level say that we received messages on our phones. so we left quickly, remember we came here to the hospital, but the place is more crowded than the schools and everyone came here. there are no bathrooms, no food, no water, nobody cares about is the law in on that. i was displaced with my family, 16 of us. we go from place to place. may god help us on the saw. the un

is calling on israel to immediately reverse the evacuation order. but for countless guns, it's already too late. i'd like to welcome the world health organizations regional director for the eastern mediterranean awesome at all. i'm on target. thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us today. we've just heard there the w h. o has condemned israel's order to evacuate hospitals in northern causa as potentially tantamount to a death sentence. can you give us a situation, an update on the situation in how far it has been possible to evacuate patients in just a couple of days? thank you very much. cleared for giving me the opportunity. and in fact, you know, i just had a good question. i'd like us to share with you numbers. there are other on $2200.00 because in that area, and which is our last few of them to be evacuated. hosting around the 2000 patients, many of them model ventilate those. many of them are or not at 24 hours, you know,

medications like it does have to be in a diagnosis and help. fortunately, what you know, this, that are present around 61 percent of the bed capacities in the old it was in the other hospitals on the other side, you know what your day was to move out already for the 99.9 percent capacity. the noise to bits down little bits into, or, you know, the words ovation theatres are fully walking 24 hours with a severe shortage of supplies. and then shortly before the end electricity in the coming fuel. obviously, you know, if most of the ocean is coming out in addition to that clarity and i'd like us to share that they are on to 120000 people. and it gives us to, you know, somebody from different types of grow. and again, this is like, you know, 52000 of them 50 to 2000 patients with diabetes. they are on $25.00, but again, it's women in which a $180.00 deliveries i did. so it means that we are really putting this sentence to

go as a group of people who are in need of that service in, in every 2nd of dollar. so it's not just in hospitals that also health concerns for people across the gaza strip. i'm, i want to look at aid from the w h o yesterday, your organization has told us that it's send a plane load of supplies that are now sitting in egypt waiting to get into the gaza . do you think that we are close to an agreement that will allow those supplies to finally cross into gaza? this is what we are hoping you know to do to get to in the coming get few hours based on what the she ations our director general looked at the addresses making and also my counter bought the hands clothing from that again and the director, you know, if you're in addition to the other political leaders around the nope, asking days or it is, we want to make sure that you modify for exam been pulled up nearby. egypt is open and our supply is there in each apple which is around 22 meter away from by it is it available to be is shipped to us?

our teams are also available in the office here on headquarters at the ard, for the supplies available in our list to come in to be we, we manage to the, you know, sec, you were out on $3000000.00 plus $1000000.00 us dollars to buy the supplies so we are available in each, you know, at the moment they thought of the, you know, i don't know if i have correspond, it is open, we are ready to go inside and provide the support. so your team is ready to move in as soon as it is allowed and possible. can you tell us a little bit more about exactly what is in those supplies that will be sent to gaza to help people there? these supplies included in fact, you know, throw my kids that can be used to 3 to those in your, to be able to either on the streets or in the field or in the hospital. the kids you know, containing them. so to go kits to do all the ration inside the hosp, it tends to be out of medications for chronic illness. is like diabetes have attention at the outcomes also to provide for around $300000.00 people, including pregnant ladies to provide them with the care of

a need inside helps because and also in their feet. well, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us on dw news. i really appreciate your time today. that is w w h. i was off at outland har at many thanks . it's as now is really officials, a missile stride from southern 11 on has killed at least one civilian in northern israel. pro iranian has blown militants have claimed responsibility for the strikes these really military set. it responded with artillery fire and also announced the closure of the area near the border. cross border fire has intensified since last sunday. authorities say more than 10 people in lebanon and at least 2 in israel have been killed. let's speak to frank language for more on israel as possible military preparations. he's a senior lecturer and strategic studies at the university of portsmouth, also a former u. k. military intelligence officer of frank. good to see you again. as israel says, it's preparing for

a broad ground defensive. what do you think is going through the minds of military planners? right now? demonic that they are trying to reconcile, be constant and perennial issues of ends, ways means and risk. so those are they, those are the key aspects of military plants with respect to the is re lease. they got back on maintenance at the time the ends. so everybody, all come on this plan is will be very keen and concerned to ensure that that's so it is a very clear as to what the objectives of the campaign. oh not just at that higher level elimination of how much what your personal level is. so that's the end. so i may say that very, very, very relentless with this is really what strategies here. i'm curious, what do you think of these ends are in their strategy to get their so i well that's, that's the question. the immediate time. so the crushing elimination of, of how much now the questionnaire is just as it was, and i've got a son in iraq,

frankly, from my perspective. well, what that, i suspect is wireless, considering that now perhaps the number 3 or 4 that planning priorities that the military plan is themselves don't concern themselves with that they can set themselves with the best things such as logistics and the risks course of action against those risks and the risks of cost of an attack. an assault on garza are extremely high and everybody will be keen and concerned about that. not another issue that you're going to be very worried about. things inside the right, besides logistics, logistics and the means all of the meetings are going to be applied to in the assaults. so for example, ones this take you city is extremely resource intensive in each brigade, cities, each brigade. so you can have 5 or 600 people taking one street. so the ways and means going to be really, really of concern to them. now that's why we haven't seen yet the ground assault.

go in. yeah, very high risk operation. i'm curious based on your expertise in, in your view, whether a major military offensive on the ground like this is an effective way for israel to achieve its call, a wiping out from us. from that perspective, it's the only way that i focus on winning and victory, by the way, explains the relentlessness of the campaign that we have just before from both with food program and openness. at the very focused on right now that they real estate does on the settlements in that and they will say how most out kind of kind of be done. yes, it kind of, we've seen that before and most of what city are similar size. similar population was successfully cleared out of his stomach state, but it took 9 months, correct? yeah, because it's a much harder not to track. yeah. do you think we're looking at it? i'm thinking it this long of a time period here as well. netanyahu has been warning on television just this

weekend's that we are such for a very long campaign. indeed. yes, and they'll be strategic shots to be tactical sorts of a big loss is they'll be maybe they'll be events that was predicted, but that's why these way they only put such a focus on flexibility and what they called mission come on, which is developing authority to local, come on this, so to the very, very challenging indeed, and that's before we consider that the, the, the issues on the ground, the drugs, the is the booby traps that posted by defensive positions in the top, especially the tunnels class. that's going to be the real se, pool pool pool, as well as on. but the best in the world of this, that doesn't mean it's going to take a short amount of time. you're going to be prepared. this is going to take a long time. well, thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us. of those frank lead friends lecturer at portsmouth university. we appreciate your time as always. thank you. and these really military says it has killed the homeless commander who lead one of

the terror attacks on board or villages in israel last week. it has released a video of what it says is an air strike on a building and the south of gaza city. that it says killed him off commander below or kendra. the army said he was responsible for the kibbutz near a massacre where residents were killed in their homes. it also said to other homeless commanders were killed in recent airstrikes on gaza, although i'm off has not confirmed their depths. so let's take a look at the latest developments. garzon officials saying israel's airstrikes have now killed more than 2300 people. most of terrorist attacks claimed the lives of over 1000. $300.00 is bailey's. united states has sent a 2nd aircraft carrier to the eastern mediterranean to support israel. and israel's communications minister at once. alger 0 has local bureau shut down, accusing the guitar base, news channel of incitement. and israel itself. there is a growing anger over the plight of hostages taken by him austin the attacks last
