on the we are a hospital in gaza. city the w h. o has condemn the attack, an egypt, as called on the international community to intervene. the is really military denies responsibility saying it believes the hospital was hit and a failed rocket launch by palestinian militant group as long as you, hon. earlier i spoke to journalist session but lucia on the phone. he is in central gaza and he told me more about the situation surrounding the strike on the hospital. where we know is like i took this for, for defense spokesperson, who was there among service q a cruise that he told me when he's what he need me file. he's a or adults i need to speak to, to, to kansas city that goes to the killing of hundreds of, of all of periods for taking the hospital as

a safe place from the nearby areas. and he didn't define the number of 2 people. he said that we use that key way to i'm good social studies and a jury, and not because of the black out there. they will come back in the morning and to check all the other uh, facilities of the hospital. our correspondence rebecca reuters is near the is really city restaurant that is not far from the border with gaza. rebecca, good to see you. now. what do you know about the strike on the hospital? when a coal this is dry cool. this strike happened to the hospital in gauze and city in an area that has been given an evacuation order by the is riley miller tree. but many in from people not able to move and many others who, who have no way o means of moving. also taking shelter in at hospital is believed many of the

people in may were in fact, fleeing bombing further north. the, the initial report said that 2 to 300 people were killed. but that number probably city unhelpful forward and quickly raised to 500. and it's likely that that number could rise make one of the deadliest attacks in any guns of war since 2008. now, the condemnation of this attack was quick as you can imagine, 500 plus people the world health organization as well as many arab states. jordan, iran, turkey guitar, that will come out condemning this attack. and we're starting to see protests to emerge some in jordan and elsewhere in the westbank, a people protesting this attack. now, these ready made a treat, has issued a statement. initially they said they were investigating and looking into the matter. they've now issued a statement. blaming that last on and is like g had misfire, they say that analysis shows that a badge of rockets was fired by islamic jihad and that it was thought they would

find me in the hospital and that one of them missed 5 and hit that house when i was really difficult to independently verify that information, particularly with the lack of access and the ongoing operation. this is ralph is in 1000 target civilian infrastructure, but it has been known to in the past in the earlier today, you in school was also targeted, killing 6 people. so at her, her risk, the incident by, by any, by whichever means this, this has happened to say then this just exacerbates the already diary humanitarian situation in gaza. warren, can you tell us about what the people stuck there right now? the innocent civilians are experiencing to well, this is a perfect example of what people in the kansas trip are experiencing constant bombardment the fear of death at any moment. the on top of that,

they're trying to play with hearing numbers of 600000. also that it may have made their way already down to the southern part of the strip from the north, the, the order, the evacuation order encompassed about more than 1000000 people. but we know that some people add some people who were sheltering in this very hospital. i'm not able to make that journey for whatever reason. and the, the situation, the humanitarian situation on the ground is getting worse by the minute. we know that the, the whole strip has been on to receive since this operation. since this will began on the weekend. we know that they fos, running out of gas, was a few in the situation located also with the water situation creating diseases, a full people there on the ground. this is, you know, her if it costs a risk situation, hospitals running out of medical supplies to try and treat the wounded. that's

really very worst case scenario. hoping for some humanitarian assistance in the coming days. but so far, nothing has bay, no plan has been put into action. let's do w corresponding rebecca rivers there and throughout. thank you so much of these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has described her mazda attack on israel as quote, the worst crime committed against jews since the holocaust. he made the comment after meeting german chancellor or of shots and to leave. after their talks, schultz was forced to take cover when air raid sirens sounded while he was boarding, his plane to travel onwards to egypt was later able to continue his journey. german later was in israel and to show a support for the country of the landing into love. eve germantown slow, olaf shows cold it a visit to friends in difficult times during talks with is rarely prime minister benyamin, antonia who he express condolences to israel, but also concern over

a broadening of the conflict. is this me a vision, which is it is important for me to say this today should be in this difficult time . in all clarity, tortuga sheets. germany's history or historical responsibility originating from the holocaust. what makes it all duty to protect the existence and security of israel so interesting? never give them to my government, assuming everything in its power to ensure that this conflict does not escalate, it is essential to prevent a conflagration in the region. the german towns love pledge that his government will keep them in so many tearing commitments in regard to the civilian population . the behind closed doors, olaf shawls also meant the relatives of german hostages, held by come us in gaza. they staged at protest in front of the german embassy. they are demanding answers. the phone with whom give you the information that we have. and i don't even want to say it out loud. but some of them are probably

already dead. when we don't know that officially, and that's certainly a problem when does is for students, and probably all we want right now is a power below beth. tim's and before before everything to know their situation because we know nothing, we are in the, in the air. so we want to know their situation that they're being taken care of to his visit to israel shoals will continue to was egypt tough talks with president up the fact that hot c c a had of the expected to p summit in cairo this weekend earlier the chancellor, match with jordan's king abdullah in berlin. the leaders discussed the humanitarian situation in the gaza strip and how to prevent further escalation between israel and thomas and gaza. jordanian leader warned against palestinian refugees being pushed into egypt or jordan, calling it a red line of draw damian. kings dress the need for

a to levy, the suffering of civilians on both sides. but he said the humanitarian issue must be dealt with inside garza and the west bank. that is a red line because i think that is a plan by certain of the usual suspects to try and create de facto issues on the ground. no refugees in jordan, no refugees in egypt. this is a situation of shipments here and i mentioned that has to be dealt inside of as a and and, and the west bank not to try and push the palestinian challenge of that future on to other people's shoulders. a jeremy saw her off as the former is rarely ambassador to germany who joined us earlier on from jerusalem. i asked him, what is real expect from germany in light of chancellor schultz, his visits to the country? well, i think we're getting everything that could have been expected from germany. the chancellor's visit today was an improvement and crucial assigned to support and

solidarity for his role in this very last 11 days of absolute har. the we've seen off to the, from us attack on israel. it also comes off to the foreign minister who already and above or could visits. it is ro, last friday. and yesterday evening i come to the, the german and best of the stuff inside the to, to meet with families of the captive prisoners. abducted by some us. uh, during the last that, that black savvy thing we have. so we feel very strongly about the germans support . it's very evident that we very much appreciate it. you've been campaigning intentionally for the release of these close to 200 hostages. is there anything we know about their situation? as long as they have released a few couple of videos for one of the cap to the space, assisted by a medical attendant. and obviously she was speaking to the camera on the,

you know, on the degree of compulsion. it's very difficult to say, but to the said in various channels, but they are taking care and looking off to them and they will do well to do so because we hold them clearly responsible. i think the international community, these are not just, is really citizens, the citizens from a number of other countries in the world, including germany and festival they were illegally. abducted. and the least come us can do is give them sanitary conditions. prop uh the the nourishment and also medical assistance and treat them with the respect that they dis of. um, so this is one of the things that is very much capturing our attention and we're very much concerned about this. is there any tangible progress in progress being made to secure their release a little bit so i can imagine is that, you know,

these righty government, this riley society is a whole as i said yesterday, we so visited a sense of volunteers that it has the families present and we're working with them . i mean the whole of his role is focused on this important and crucial issue for us. and we will do everything we can. and as you know, yesterday was announced that there are a 199 captives and gone. so, and as i said, i have no doubt that germany and the united states for that matter is looking very closely at this issue. and just working with this route through who we can in order to get this set up the captains back as soon as possible, safely, alive, and well at the international community is working frantically not only to release of those hostages, but also to be escalated, can very diplomatic efforts avoid this conflict from getting out of hand a look,

this is a very complex situation. we have a said from since the situation involved and became clear. uh, uh, the we uh, going to talk to uh, some us military capabilities and the leadership. uh, an early today. uh i'm and also that was a very senior from us. come on, that was taken out by the idea of and so there's still, this is still an ongoing military operation. and we're talking with the german colleagues, i'm sure this was a part of the conversation with the child story and the private to submit to know were also her very long and detailed discussions with the united states. secretary clinton was here regarding how we deal with the military and situation on the other side of casa. i want to just touch briefly on the humanitarian situation because

it's, it's of course, causing huge concern internationally by, you know, politicians as well as a organization at they like to see a humanitarian court or across causes border with egypt. why is this not happening? um, 1st of all, i would uh say that there are already very intense discussions to open and ensure that she monetary night can arrive at the people's need it in gaza because you know, the americans and the german governments are also talking to egypt who are in control, so the rough us the costs across, so you may say that as a would like to open the border and not as israel making the situation impossible. the social festival. we don't control the border between casa and he chipped at the back in any stay uh there. uh,

cuz i said ongoing conversations and it was very clear from what. so secretary blinking said that there have been agreements regarding how you get the commodity area and a to those who need it and can it, would it be possible to identify sites so and so for the, for the palestinians on that side, i also want to, to remind the view is that there are also many thousands of israelis who are displaced both from the south of israel and the north of israel because of the tension which is below and lebanon. and we're also dealing with a very uh tough improve, monetary and situation. yeah, and these are going into that as mother and hire. thank you so much for your target . i was farmer is really ambassador to germany, jeremy and stuff are in jerusalem. thanks. thank you. 2800 people have died in the gaza strip, including dozens in the south where israel told civilians from the north to shelter

a to work or say the territories on the verge of collapse as it runs out of essentials. a while thousands are desperate to escape gaza. some are impatient to be a load in the rough or crossing with egypt. aid workers are waiting to be given the green light to send trucks packed with supplies over the border handle kilometers. here at the rapid crossing that we have with us, i'm outside for a long period of time. or you could be even more than sufficient for out people and jobs have beautiful bodies, fluid cheese theory, which to be our medicine. and then when he had the way the world food program said it had organized over 300 tons of food. enough to feed a quarter of a 1000000 people for a week to be sent to egypt and is simply waiting for the green light to deliver it . to gaza, where it says the situation is deteriorating fast. the shops are going to run out of basic food items within these any existing stock country, each, the shops or the people because of them is infrastructure. and like a few,

the number of big it is we work with is decreasing by the day. they also don't have enough water or interested to produce bread. the w s p says it has provided food and financial assistance to over half a 1000000 people in the gaza strip on the west bank since the start of this latest conflict. but despite its efforts, many a growing desperate. israel's blockade bytes one lovely, that's going to shoot me such and such as we need everything the safety piece of all my all the essential i can electricity. oh smart. yeah. the small you there is no water in a little cold medicine for children. shut off for sure, there is nothing of and no for the pump, as i'm sure. on the other hand, in the a soft, low medical everything any to you and says israel's actions could be in contravention of international law. international law requires that any lawful temporary

evacuation by israel, as the occupying power of an area on the basis of the security of the population. if it imposes obligations on israel to ensure their security, it imposes obligations on them to ensure proper hygiene, health, safety, and nutrition. and there appears to have been no attempt to by israel to ensure this for the civilians were ordered to move on his visit to his real german chancellor, olaf schultz course said he had spoken to benjamin netanyahu. it's about $118.00. and because of the bottom, the people they are queuing for brands and other centrals, we'll be hoping that is really prime minister. he'd shots, his words as resources and about their territory run ever lower us president joe biden is preparing to head to israel on wednesday in meetings with the government. he's expected to reaffirm americans commitments to israel. security will also discuss israel's war aims and the strategy as well as the need to protect

the lives of civilians and unable age to reach gaza is comes as israel pressed hassan with air strikes and prepares for a ground invasion of the enclave. its 1st light and the extent of israel's military build up on its full do with garza becomes clearer troops by to reggie as they prepare for ground defensive. the could begin at any moment. over nights these ready defense forces continued that as strikes on the gauze, a strip that targeting the militant islam is group hum us in retaliation for its deadly tara attacks on israel. this is, randy. will ships have also been firing missiles at garza from the sea, but the conflict is in danger of escalating farther. in the notes of his round troops, the vigilance close to the 11th, and as well bolder as tensions between israel and the run back to minutes in group

has bullet increase. israel has released footage of strikes, targeting, what it claims is, minute treat infrastructure in lebanon. but no meaning to has beula, and it says it carriage asthma, attack almost it described as a group of militants from lebanon, attempting to infiltrate the security fence. it was in the hand. the iran meanwhile, has raised the stakes for the by warning of a pre emptive attack against israel before leaving israel. us secretary of state and need lincoln said the us presidents visit this week is also a warning president. bible underscore are crystal clear message to any actor, state or non state. trying to take advantage of this crisis to attack israel. don't . for now, though, garza already on defined weights for as well,

and weld powers to take the next step. john spencer is the chair of urban warfare studies with the madison policy for him. i asked him to give us an assessment of the situation regarding the is really ground defensive and got so sure. i mean, i think they're starting to condition as execute the, not your operation. that the idea since they've been given, which is to destroy a mazda notice you capabilities the currently, it is continuing with the air campaign to strike from us military tigers. to reduce their capabilities before ground force would go in to actually physically clear it . you can't do that through strictly bombing so you would need ground forces to clear the urban areas of a massive military get those where they put them in to what extent has that weakened homeless so far? i mean, it's hard to your to say from afar, but definitely considerably. it's taken out of my ability to see

a mazda is ability to strike. we're using rocket to reduce that capability. but a mazda does have a city underneath their cities where they can protect much of their capability, but um, how effective it is being they have taken out leadership, so that all be significant. if a ground new campaign is executed. yeah, let's talk about that city beneath the city that system of tunnels that her mom has built up over the years. that added to guys being one of the most pop, densely populated areas on the planet. what does that mean for a possible ground offensive to me the, the challenges for the i definitely would be great, almost historical. although you guys are the guys as it is not one of the dentist places on there it is definitely a high density and uniquely probably to use. a lot of other bells i've,

i've studied from us, has been years if not longer building tunnels, underneath the civilian population on purpose for military military design. i mean there are tunnels and so training spaces and a lot of bottles bores. but from us as doug, there is deeper and deeper some up to 200 plus feet under the ground that makes it a considerably harder and much more destructive. if a game ground campaign is to get those military capabilities, which most of them are underground. and affairs are, of course, of this conflict spilling over what are the chances of other actors being dragged into the war? i mean, there's always high chance, although i as a new professor strategy, i'm more is politics by other means the idea of how to have a very narrow but also larger than they've ever tried the political and military objective, but the actions of other state actors,

other non state actors like the program i'm talking about before a really unknown, but i'm, this is why you keep open communications up with especially state actors, to not do it to send signs of terence, to uphold all the rules of international law on following the rules of law in the execution of any, any, were not the targets of lee, and i'm all of that will come into play on what happens next in this war. which is to me, defined clearly as from the tear stack of october 7th to now the mission of the idea to destroy, i'm unable to get building is israel prepared for a scenario? they have probably been been gearing out for for longer. but can you ever prepare for the facts on the ground that are as you just laid out, are very, very complex right now i think idea of the or the is realize very prepare for

a multi front more a we all hope it doesn't go go that way it will be severely catastrophic, or regional aspects for civilian casualties. it would be terrible. it's not the 1st time idea of has fault a multiple front war to clear the forefront war. and. and there had been plenty of allies to say that they would stand with israel in the protection of its citizens in the end of his nation. but nobody wants that to happen. i think exactly, every political common i've heard is said, don't go that way. exactly. and diplomatic efforts are running high right now to avoid precisely that that was john spencer has been in madison policy for him. thank you so much. i thank you. so i think the, the, the news line from berlin here is a quick reminder of our top story today. officials in gaza say hundreds of people have been killed in an air strike on a hospital. israel's defense forces of blame the attack on a militant islam as groups out. the medium box has declared 3 days of morning
