10:03 am

10:04 am
nope, we're talking about humanitarian aid for people who are living under extremely difficult conditions and civilians who are or are facing serious health issues. among other things are hungry. why has it been so difficult kareem to get the aide flowing back into gaza? what did it just has to be done in code you they should use it to how much is ran into you in it? it seems to be very, very difficult from the jeep to size. they are ready to bring the 8 and the big topic for the educational side is about crossing the border of the border crossing and for the other students to lead from there, there's a big fear in egypt about the policy in exodus from doesn't it isn't present the c c just said that the couldn't more, it was not just being that citing, i'm us and but also an attempt to, to push to begin to inhabitants to migrate to new ships. and that's,
10:05 am
it seems to be here. yes, i understand that is a lot of students are trauma about a number of the few of the part of the students. once again, will it be forcefully displayed this place they have to know in their history when ever they escaped to another country, they were never allowed to expect and to i think this is really the big issue. this is also the issue in jordan, this is the issue in the ship right now. why they are so reluctant that the policy needs can come from the gaza strip. kareem, thank you very much for now. that was journalist kareem, l g o r e reporting from egypt. capital kyra, well, palestinian militants continued to fire rockets from guys into israel on thursday. this as is really forces truck targets in the gaza strip throughout the day, including in the south, the territory where israel had told gardens to head for their own safety. when explosion in the south, reportedly killed and injured several people including children,
10:06 am
her father carrying his child to the grave. he was one of 3 children, one of those receiving the finally rides on this barren patch of land. for as a house to the sound refrigerator, the aircraft hovering above a constant maintenance to the palestinians below. and a reminder of the strike on the town of con, eunice killed, the civilians being buried here. hundreds of thousands of palestinians have set the northern part of the gaza strip of to israel, told them to leave for the south running out of food and desperate for shelter. they have found no reprieve from israel's relentless bowman campaign. the we came from kansas city. they told us to come to the south and so we came to the south and then we found that the strikes intensified in the south. we stayed in
10:07 am
a house in front of us. they were strikes behind us and strikes. there's no safety . there's no with say, think go, so how does it so you have to be ready to dine and to just stay in your house. also israel virus to continue talking. how much of a gaza be when there was a threats originating or uh, being conducted against israel. from the south and we will strike absolutely. and it will soon move its powerful um into the strip. israel's defense minister told troops messing on his border. oh my god, i promise you that whoever sees garza now from a fall will see it from the inside. good luck and he's ready to ground operations will likely focus on the know of, at least in the initial stages. with how much i expect it to put up face resistance . but by the confines of southern god, the may still prove a century of thoughts. husband pollution as
10:08 am
a journalist in gaza earlier i asked him about the humanitarian situation there. the beginning of during the situation was getting on and on. no electricity, no power at all. uh no doing can go to uh no, you can uh, limited access to to know borges, the trucks coming in uh people are logging on basically in for 3 shots at the store and people cant afford some stuff. but still on those on uh, some people are staying in on the schools and they are providing everything that you that now according to the limited amount that they have to get it for, show all the services, i mean structure on down now the, apparently we are connected on the phone and it comes in with those,
10:09 am
not the time that people are not communicate to the dealer and people that know here and no official like how long that goes. i can. so why would the current situation their efforts to resume a deliveries to guys of across the border with egypt or palestinians in gaza, expecting those a deliveries to resume to actually reach them? well, this is a question that see how and when this 8 will come from the reports that it would come today. but seems like up to now nothing came anything to go into. um, with that, with that what they are talking about 20 trucks, which is very limited and this would be so that you particularly uh wonder, well maybe with a twist and we didn't know yet about the mac connected. and i didn't know how,
10:10 am
how it's being distributed to or you know, the people with the other people in the south or on the phone for fiji are staying at the schools. is there any place in gaza where the people there can flee to and be safe? actually no, i'm. i'm displaced myself with my family for the 3rd time and explore many people with their places in north and the dog. a city to the south. the email overnight here i'm on the phone to college, this rap. i'm still here the environment and it strikes me more money reports about every strikes in the communities which is in the south. many buildings were destroyed. there are many people killed in different us like spot. we can't really have to say that it's more a $10.00 and more here is continued,
10:11 am
but still there are many people killed by warranty. today it strikes husband, thank you very much for your reporting. that was during those times and pollution speaking to us from gaza. thank you. as i also spoke with dw correspond atanya kramer in jerusalem. i asked her why is real, has not yet launched. it's expected ground operation in guns. well, i think they're certainly strategic considerations by that is really army there. one still, although it is expected, have an element of surprise. be heard now the defense minister saying, and some officials and army officials saying that, you know, thing to the, to see if you will see garza from the inside as soon. now this could be an indication that this will actually happen. assume the ground invasion, but we don't know for sure when the recording,
10:12 am
but there might be also other considerations here be hearing a lot from the is really military correspondence here that there is a concern in the north the for the it says for the was a living on that has canada, she has to be been the school of medicine group has flour, could enter the work of the because they have set, if a crowns invasion will happen, they might do so and there's a lot of concern. so it could also be related to doctor preparations on going and be a hearing this morning. there has been another recreation order of a bigger town in the north q u x morning that the people there should actually evacuate to places for themselves in this room. there's also a lot of concern about the hostages being held by hom, us, tanya, is there any word on their face? no, we don't know much about their location um what, what is happening to them. but that has been a video that has been released by the most militant
10:13 am
a we last week showing one of the hostages there in a different environment. this was talking to some of these to have families. so this is one of the videos that has been released at the is very a government said, you might expect more of this, but many people still don't know. i mean, 203 people are concerned. it has been taken hostage as now by the military. it is really military, but some people still don't know what happened to their families. because some of the identification, post identification posts, as of those were killed in the initial attacks a 2 weeks ago is still ongoing. tanya, thank you dw, as tanya kramer there injuries on israel says more than 200 people were taken hostage by him. us during the terror attacks earlier this month. they include the elderly, the disabled and children, the hostages, captured in southern israel and taking the goals are likely to be used as
10:14 am
a bargaining tool. they're distraught families are urging the israeli government to prioritize their safe return on a wall outside the is really defense ministry and tel aviv. and our walls across is real. the images of those taken and missing. these are the government most focused. first, the phone on doing whatever is necessary. you know that to release the hijacked people in the october 7th attack from us terrace, killed indiscriminately, and it could nap civilians, soldiers be elderly, disabled, and children. so many children. now the hostages are somewhere in the gaza strip, or under it in the untold hundreds of kilometers of tunnels. come off as bills now that be a lot of effort putting to coordinating identifying the load, casey,
10:15 am
where the hosted is all being tapped as much as possible. and of course, in the background, this talk of potentially hostage rescue attempts, but these are very, very dangerous options with no way to guarantee chance of success. what, how much recognizes scott walker says, is that is we all has consistently prioritize the safe return of their citizens. so you can add the vin on case end point. the 19 year old is rarely soldier held by him. us for 5 years is we'll got him back by giving up more than a 1000 palestinian prisoners to whom us they always want to take captives. they know what captives can do. one is rarely soldier people actually, and that's the price of israel was willing to pay. the hostages ruthlessly taken on october 7th, and likely guarded now by some of the homeless kidnappers face a link the captivity. and indeed the threat of death from the captors.
10:16 am
the families of those hostages are shaken and afraid desperate for any word and hopeful that the images of their sisters, brothers, parents, grandparents remain in the forefront of israel's moves against time. us us present, joe biden has urged americans to support tens of billions of dollars and funding for israel and ukraine, saying they were fighting for democracy in a rare speech from the white house as oval office. the stress that backing both was bible for us national security. by that said the world was looking for america for leadership and that the us couldn't afford to abandon its allies. now, american leadership is what holds the world together. american alliances. what keep us americans say american values, what make us a partner the nation you want to work with? put all that a risk. we walk away from ukraine. return our backs on israel. it's just not worth
10:17 am
it. that's why the more i'm going to send to congress an urgent budget request to fund another dispatch. so security needs to support are critical partners, including israel and ukraine. is a smart investment, is going to pay dividends for americans, security for generations to help us keep american troops out of harm's way. help us build a world that is safer, more peaceful and more prosperous for our children and grandchildren. earlier i asked the w william blue cross to tell us more about biden taking the unusual step of addressing the american people from the oval office. it is unusual. i'm trying to remember a time when the us president gave a major prime time, national address about something going on on far away, especially a war that the us actually isn't officially directly involved. that right? no boots on the ground, no american lives at risk. but this actually kind of signals a shift in,
10:18 am
in what us power means in the world these days, right? it's not so much military power anymore. of course, united states still has a massive military out spends in our arms itself more than any other country in the world. but american power these days is money. is it the financial system, its ability to back its allies with huge amount of financial support? and that's kind of what the speech has now. so we're seeing the shift actually from american military power to american financial and, and, and money, power. and it's, it's support for sort of wars. and it's interesting, even though it's not directly involved talking money by and has said he will request a more funding, billions for both ukraine and is real. what are the chances of that funding getting congressional approval, really a well famous last words, and i'll never make predictions live on air about what may or may not happen in politics, specifically us politics, give them what's going on right now. that said, i'm sure it, at the end of the day, something will pass. there is still bipartisan support for ukraine,
10:19 am
although it is waning a bit. and there are a strong, strong, strong one waiver and decades long support on both sides the aisle for israel. so given that something will happen, but what is going to take to get there, how much it's going to be, what concessions might have to be made in terms of security on the border with mexico, other republican pet projects, so to speak. that can be the big question, there's negotiations. and of course the congress right now is paralyzed. can't actually give the money that bite and once, even if they wanted to, because there's, of course, no speaker in the house. the congress is completely bogged down in its own internal mass trying to get a leadership going so that they can move forward on the legislative agenda. so it's going to take a while. number mid november is when the money the current money runs out. we can see, you know, the government shut down the us present is also urging is real not to be in his words. blinded by rage is the biden asking is real to show restraint and
10:20 am
it's looming ground defensive in the gaza strip. william. so it certainly sounds like direct vitamins walking, a fine line saying of course israel has the right to defend itself. of course it has the right to respond to how much of the attack. but there is still international law to comply with. there is still a horrible situation in gaza that israel is largely responsible for in terms of humanitarian side of things. and she did make note about america's own 911 experience, the major mistakes that the us made in terms of his policy decisions and undermining its own values when it comes to torture and the kinds of surveillance that it it employed after. in what you've saw, that security needs. so it's trying to caution is real, don't do what we did. try to make smart decisions, think crudely and rationally, even in this incredibly tragic time for them. william, thanks for your analysis. that was the w. william, blue cross. you are watching dw news still to come german foreign minister on the
10:21 am
bed box is intel of be holding talks with the is really leadership. there she's to, to speak to the media soon will be bringing you full coverage of that news conference. meanwhile, demonstrators have taken to the streets across the muslim world in solidarity with the people of gossip. one big rally was held in this stumble, then took his present measure of time for the one is a fervent supporter of the palestinian cause, dw is julia han reports. it's been another night of rage here in east and large crowds were protesting outside some trying to storm the building some to hire with the protesters named israel to the debbie at a hospital in gulf and switching is royal comments were crimes against this like humanity and we have to be sending out of the lake holes are not only here,
10:22 am
but only in muslim countries, not only in muslims like it is more crimes against humanity. so we should be spending with the people and it also that's definitely not holding up for this issue. and the horrible human boilers have tons of video g going to gauge president ridge of tony a bad one was also weak to assign blame. he called the hospitalized quote, the latest example of israel's attacks, devoid of the most basic human values. meanwhile, the is really military says it can prove that a rock had launched by the palestinian militants group. is low make jihad is to blame the jihad was responsible. in any case, consequences, fatalities between turkey and israel could be dia, we did an immediate attribute recently add one has been working to with have relations with israel, which of long suffered from his support for the palestinians. a few weeks ago with
10:23 am
the un general assembly in new york, he even met prime minister benjamin netanyahu in person for the 1st time. the now, the fragile reco small could be over. what was cited to see increasingly is out on the government of turkey taking a very strong and he's ready position to the extent that i think out on is more interested in abandoning the so called a lukewarm rapprochement, which was never credible, unrealistic to begin with. one of the major reasons is irma, let's say, is ad one's relationship with the islam is thomas just in july he held talks with him. us as political leader is my and her knee is incorrect. the 2 men have met many times of the years. and the israel has accused toughie of providing a safe haven to members of the group during has more than 2 decades impala ad one has always been a sub and support health of how this team and cause. and it resonates well with
10:24 am
many here in turkey to this day, he refuses to classify him, us as a terrorist organization, unlike most of his west and allies. and along with the wrong and culture of turkey, a is a central actor that enables from us is activities on an international scale, you know, add on, move systematically to essentially ensure that how mosque bound office space, diplomatic recognition, and hovering or from us leaders and operators. inside of turkey, the following her muscles that falsities in israel and october 7th, edwin has been trying to use his ties with the militant group to play a mediating role tech issue official say they all negotiating the release of hostages health by him us in the gaza strip, but how much influence does ad one's government have that remains to be seen my my own view on this would be to suggest that took his influence with him. us is negligible but also took it offering itself as a mediator between israel and i'm also authorities is it is an insincere simply
10:25 am
because took his relationship with israel is the, is tenuous at best and he is ready government and his ready authority do not trust the intentions of ad on them. well protesting and roots of holding for me will protest and the coming days he's real has told it citizens to leave talking immediately. fears of appliance will attack. well clash is broken out between police and protesters, added an authorized demonstration here in berlin. at least a 174 people were arrested and dozens of police officers were injured. some demonstrators use fireworks set fire to barricades and pelting police with stones and bottles. pro palestinian protests were also held on wednesday in other german cities, including frankfort, where police use water cannon and in northern back authorities had banned such protests sparked by an ongoing war conflict by the ongoing war between israel and
10:26 am
from us to prevent possible and to submit an instance of a more of a situation here in germany were joined by hunts put on from our parliamentary studios. huns transfer schultz has said that anti semitism has no place in germany, but that hasn't stopped anti semitic incidents from occurring hasn't. here's some day we've just seen the pictures of those demonstrations which were banned for fear of incitement. and in other words, for fear of anti semitism turning into a cold, full violence, for instance, against jews are against israel and these banning slates to those classes. and now this is obvious during the assessment that the police, the, the authorities have to make that have been similar demonstrations elsewhere in germany. it would have been entirely peaceful. so it's also possibly a situation that is particular to bolen where the situation is particularly heat at
10:27 am
the moment. tempers aren't particularly heated at the moment. they will also be another anticipate. take incidence such as the size of david's being sprayed on certain buildings. um, and that has even been an attempted attack on the jewish cultural center with the model, the tough cocktails. so yes, so these kinds of things have been increasing. maybe one should say that anti semitism itself is not illegal in germany. but obviously what's illegal is quoting for violence or acting in nevada. now how will or jewish institutions and the jewish community protected in germany, hans as well, that is a kind of a general level of extra protection for jewish institutions across germany. that is a normal as well. the one should say this is not really should not be normal and but they are on the is police protection that are on the clock. it actually should
10:28 am
institutions always by the in recent days that protection has been ratcheted off. has been increased and there has been a number of other measures that have been taking for instance, the jewish museum here in berlin has been fenced off as has been one of the most important um, well the, the holocaust memorial in the center of poland, which is a drum and east most a central place for her to come memorizing the victims of nazi tetra. that's normally a place that is completely open and that isn't all being being fenced off. so may just have been taken because temper, this tempest heated germany is deeply committed to israel's continued existence ended security. that's a basic principle of the german federal republic. what does that mean though? in concrete terms, hans, i guess indeed that's something that's being very intensely discussed in political circles in germany in recent days. it's
10:29 am
a commitment that has grown over the decades and has become stronger and stronger, i think. and in recent years, at the moment, it means that the ticket, the political support for israel info israel's existence, and as well as security, which has demonstrated for instance by a visit by chance of the shots to israel this weekend also by repeated visits by the foreign minister under the babel cool is in israel at the moment again for a 2nd time and a so the political support really from all parties across the spectrum in germany with very few radical exceptions is very, very strong. in military terms, at the moment it's mainly involves medical support and some of the support in terms of intelligence and observation. i think not really ministry support yet, but even that as being discussed says something that in and german political
10:30 am
circles is how to very, very strongly. so you mentioned the demonstrations that have been taking place in germany and some of those anti semitic incidents. tensions are clearly running high here, given a bands that are occurring in the middle east. what's on folding there? what can we expect in germany? in the coming days, hans, i saw this situation is 10. so they are fee is that the further incidents could happen? so the violence could happen how much i believe has called for another cycle day of rage today on friday. and that's always a difficult situation. i off to friday prayers. so that's kind of a situation will be closely observed by the police today here in berlin and elsewhere in germany. at the same time, there are demonstrations in support of israel engines support of chosen germany as at atlanta, in various places in germany. and tron socialists, for instance is expected to.
