[000:00:00;00] the, this is dw news line from berlin. israel's armies test is waiting for the green light to launch a ground. it is rarely air strikes, pounds, guys at the head of an expected ground. air and sea is sold and at eliminating. come on plus an overflowing more outside the back door and a makeshift refugee camp in the front dw visits guys as the biggest hospital

complex. the violence in the middle east is dividing public opinion in many countries about tens of thousands are rallying and supportive guys as well. some governments have bad pro palestinian demonstrations the next by sir, welcome to the program. these really are me says it's waiting for politicians to give the go ahead for a massive offensive on the gaza strip. israel has told more than a 1000000 people in northern gas. it to leave for the south of the territory is really government has want to eliminate how mass after is a tax last weekend left at least 1300 people dead. air strikes, pounded targets in gas or overnight ahead of the anticipated ground assault officials and gas. i say more than 2300 people have been killed since the latest fighting erupt of the race to free. a child after is really shelling in

central gaza. the rescuers efforts were in vain. a child another casualty of the conflict. other gases have heated warnings and floods self after israel issued and evacuation order for more than 1000000 residents of northern gaza. families are taking shelter that united nation schools many traumatized from the journey. a la la la la. we are living under stress. how we haven't seen anything like this before. it will be, it's huge. you that a massive danger all very much children as you can see one, where should we take them? especially today when we played our house, we saw our burn tow cars along the way. thank god we're safe and that we've reached the south up and at home. the less the more they're not gonna near gas as border with these real is really forces are assembled for

a ground incursion. israel has vowed to destroy the palestinian how mosque militia after it's unprecedented terror attacks on southern israel. but how much have taken hostages into gaza complicating israel's invasion plans on saturday? the is really army said it had recovered the bodies of hostages, killed just inside the gas, a strip perimeter. we need to be very delicate around this issue. we are concerned about the hostages. we are continually working in order to identify and the process of identifying bodies that have been utilizing brand is very tedious and very time the i wants to be respectful to them. yes, of course we did say yesterday that there were is right, is retrieved in the, in the ground operations. israel has vowed to uphold its complete siege of gaza until all hostages are freed. dw,

as rebecca renter's is near the is randy border with gas have i asked her to describe the situation there? so why don't we just moved away from the voter? we've been around that northern gauze border in on these riley side, obviously. pretty much all day. we were distraught earlier, one of the towns heavily affected the they were a rocket. so very tied off the days of the days of reporting these rockets overhead there. and just a moment ago. and now when i showed there was some rocket fire that came here up to what was pretty uh, pretty quiet day in this, in this particular city of the, in the previous days we have seen a lot of rocket fi here. and also in ask along a little bit closer, but in fact, the move, the reason we had to move away from the border is the military have been moving along, john was moving them away from the area where the true build ups are really happening . and i wanted to be able to show you some of the truth build up there, but we're simply just not allowed to film there anymore. we have been able to all

week now take that as you will. and it certainly appears from, from that to directive from the military that things could be moving further closer . i think the ground invasion is no longer a matter of, of ease. but a matter of when we are here or waiting and expecting that to happen, potentially within the next hours, but it could still be days. it's very hard at this stage to really gauge, but you can definitely feel attention driving. and as i say, we were moved away from that border region where those troops are amassing. and as, as you know, better than i, that sounds like the typical information, geographical block on blackouts and armies engaged before launching an attack. let's just go to the politics here for 2nd israel's allies or voice voice and there's support, divides and ministration says it's sending a 2nd aircraft carrier strike group to the mediterranean. who is this reassuring news for these really or yeah, there's right, is definitely appreciative of that kind of support. they're really happy to have

friends and powerful friends in the moment of need or the roots of riley's. i've spoken to say that, of course, that is reassuring a male, so it'd be slightly concerning. they worried that you know, this is a show that even america is worried that this is going to spill into a wider regional conflict. but the, the, the id really i from everyone's perspective of the, via, across carriers moving into the region is to trying to, to that conflict from spawning out of control. so is randy certainly very grateful . so that support nick and tell us about the guys and population which has been told to relocate where the un says the humanitarian crisis is looming. over here we have reports earlier broadcast that is happening. is there any sign of release of any kind being able to come in soon for the palestinians? we've may say no sign of that. there was a close please, as told of it potentially, but we're really saying no sign of that. we know that the us has been trying to get

to citizens. they, we, what we mainly hearing is it gives us tools, citizens, but i, i think we'll see that other embassies also be trying to get tools citizens out through the raffle crossing towards the agent that still has this been no movement on that front. we've had where the agent to saying this side is open, but that it's still not safe on the guys inside of the area has been hit by walking 5 by, by me solves and it's simply not safe for people to cross the ah, you, as you say, we are hearing calls from the you and saying these could be a humanitarian catastrophe. and that is certainly from the images that we say. certainly looking likely we've had hospitals in the areas where israel has told them to evacuate, saying that they simply cannot. but people who are elderly in from pregnant women, it's just not safe for them to be able to be evacuated. so a really, really dangerous situation for the more than 1000000 people who've been told to leave the north even once they're in the south. that situation looking to be very thoughtful them as well with little infrastructure,

they're running out of water running out of food. they still have no electricity or fuel, so a dire situation for people trapped in the gaza strip. okay, rebecca, thanks for that for that inside rebecca rivers, reporting from these really border and with gas, i know a quick look at look at the latest developments. israel's expanded emergency cabinet has met intel a v for the 1st time. prime minister benjamin netanyahu out to demolish from us. israel has restore the water supply to southern gas a week after cutting off water to all of the territory. that ran has warned that no one can guarantee control of the situation if is real and base gaza and united states has sent the 2nd at our craft carrier to the mediterranean sea to support israel. and let's get more on the military situation with major libby weiss as spokes person for the israeli defense forces. major can defensive take place if the civilians have not left northern gas in sufficient numbers. i ask because both of you, when in

a groups have pleaded for you to reverse the evacuation or you're saying it's impossible and even a death sentence for the vulnerable well, i would have to say that we are encouraging people to move. we have given them the warning in advance. they are of course not the target of any military activity, but this work funding has been given. they should evacuate as soon as possible. and of course it is the responsibility of some us solver and governance governments with in the gaza strip to facilitate that but use both. people have repeatedly said they're using them as human shields. so how does that? how does that end? i mean, i think the question should be asked to from us, how much is responsible for the welfare of the people with in the gaza strip? we have supply them with a warning. we have told them to evacuate, we are facilitating that evacuation. it is up to some us to make not possible if we have any concern for their own people and they need to answer for the situation

with in the gaza strip. they are the sovereigns, they're not israel. okay. and looking forward once the military operation begins and should these rarely troops be successful in you and you've cleared the north? do you have to clear the south of how mass members? because couldn't they just move south? what i mean? where does this end? it will end when some us no longer has military or administrative powers to continue launching, attacks against israel. that is the goal. that is the information that i can share with you. now i cannot explain what could potentially happen and times in advance time from where we are right now. what i can tell you is the goal. as of now, we are providing ample warning to the public with in the gaza strip. might say a warning that none of the 1300 people were killed here received, but people were slaughtered in their beds. the people who were burned alive received no such warning from, from us. we're getting getting that warning to the people in gaza. clearly,

because we don't want for this to impact them or to minimize that impact as much as it's feasible in this situation. i think our viewers take the measure of, of the shock in the outraged people are feeling israel. now it's felt around around the world. people are saying it's israel's 911 times 10, proportionally speaking, but it's the goal here is as you say, and as part of the prime minister benjamin netanyahu has just said to destroy a mass, what happens next to who governs guys? this is a political question. i know, but there are put military implications of possible it unless insurgency isn't there. well, i cannot speak to the sort of larger diplomatic questions. and of course, that's something that the government here will have to address. and we'll discuss what i can tell you was our military focus is a clear one. it is on making sure that his release can live without the fear of being slaughtered or drive it as hostages into the gaza strip. i think any person on earth could agree that that is a reasonable expectation,

certainly of their military to make sure that that's the situation. and that's what we will do. understood, major libby wise, folks, personal for the israeli defense forces. thanks for that to the world health organization says the is really order telling people to evacuate. northern guys is a potential death sentence for vulnerable people. earlier is real told guys and civilians to move to the south of the territory beyond the why the guys are wetlands. many displays guys have taken refuge that united nation schools. there already. food, water and medical supplies are running low. israel's military has been attacking targets, it says are linked to her boss, but her mass is hundreds of civilians have been killed in his really air strikes. just in the last day, dw visited the largest hospital complex and the gas and strip to learn more. the more at guns is our chief of hospital is overflowing work is dec

corpses in the parking lot. outside bodies are coming in faster than relatives, can claim them, and the hospital has run out of space for the remains. israel's bombing campaign on the territory of 2300000 has leveled entire neighborhoods, killing mold in 2000 palestinians and wounding many more. some of the injured a being treated in hospital car adults. many of them are children. a shortage of beds, medical supplies and power outages have left hospitals in the north, struggling to co. 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

a bending 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 set up, makes shift tents in the front of the building using compet, cousins, and whatever they could salvage from their homes. we received messages on our phones, so we left quickly. we came here to the hospital, but the place is more crowded than the schools. everyone came here, there are no follow through. and so no will to, 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 all ready to link people and gas are affected by food, water, and power shortages. i asked jonathan chris from united nations children's fund office in jerusalem, how the shortages was, were impacting their daily lives. i mean, you have to imagine children how to use uh they have completely your whole most completely run out of food, water, electricity, but also magazines. and we have seen in your reports, uh, mostly in terms of this access to hospitals. um p malter is one of our major major concern. it's running completely out of the gulf history a after its power plants and the public water network has completely stopped working. so i was in touch with my creation to fuel this morning and they were telling me that some people have no source to drain dirty number possible volter. and according to our estimates of this view,
