12:02 am
the gardens are waiting there, waiting for thousands of tons of vital age stuck at the russell border. crossing with egypt. 20 trucks were supposed to be let in on friday, but so far, water, food, and medicine are still being held up. the head of the when called the supplies a lifeline, and the fact that they were still unable to reach their destination heartbreak. scoggins are also bracing themselves the racing for what seems to be an imminent ground offensive find these really army troops stationed at the border will told they'd soon see garza from the inside. all seem said for the incursion to start. the question is, how will it and i'm gonna go for the kimberline and this is the day the what they do is on human it's a crime to get to madison. after this,
12:03 am
no minutes. normally, we need to eliminate the threats. we need to eliminate almost ice. this is what it is to my certainly i'm at some point because a lot of people are going to fall or confidence in what it can do and what they can do. and we can do almost everything they wants to suck his round fruitful, twice enough in the area to it draws a lot of attention to the post post. i hope it will be very short, very focused, very effective. they will face surprise for these quite welcome to the show. first, some goodness, almost 2 weeks after israel stuff or the worst terror attack and it's history. and over 200 people were abducted to gaza. a month has released to american women on humanitarian grounds. they say much need a glimmer of hope for a country reeling from trauma. meanwhile, no good news at ga,
12:04 am
the us border with egypt, despite an agreement to open the roof or crossing to allow a limited amount of humanitarian aid and to the enclave. supplies remained caught up today, the head of the un visited rafa, calling it's opening a matter of life and they are ready and waiting. the 1st cent age of these aid trucks is supposed to be allowed through the roof of crossing the only crossing into gaza. not controlled by his real 20, you know, a trucks for garza 2 and a half 1000000 people need assistance. 20 trucks is dropped in the ocean of need right now and you guys are on the other side of the roof, a crossing. there is may, him. and despair, even if southern gaza is where it goes, we'll told the northern guidance to go for safety sake. heavy air strikes and con
12:05 am
eunice in the south meant the, overflowing nicer hospital. took in even more wounded for critical care. there's no safety, there's no way it's safe and go. so how does it so you have to be ready to dine and to just stay in. your house will be when there is a threats originating or uh, being conducted against israel from the south. and we will strike absolutely is wheels. army will soon move into the gaza strip. israel's defense minister told the troops massing on its border oh my god, i promise you that whoever sees guys are now from a far will see it from the inside. good luck. oh and is really ground operation will likely focus at 1st on the north with some us expected to put a fierce resistance. all of that pushing even more guys in south were in need of food, water, medical supplies, and back on the other side of the roof, a crossing aid supply stream into
12:06 am
a nearby airport, destined to joined the backup, waiting to get into southern gaza. for more we can now speak to frank language. he's a senior elector in strategic studies at portsmouth university and a former u. k. military intelligence officer. he joins us from oxford tonight. frank, good to see you again. now since october 7th, the is really army has killed several members of hamas top commanding brass. how much of a blow is that for the entire group? that's the call good evening. they've killed about 6 or 7 major leaders and operationally, i suspect it won't have decisive effect because need is always replaceable. and we filed that ourselves while dealing with the telephone and the did the stomach state, no ones that are replaceable. however, i think down at the top 2 level to come by level, what will be happening is people be asking, who can i trust? is really seems to be getting so pretty senior people,
12:07 am
how they finding them. is it to try to is, is it through tech, to, to read, to sense? so, so that's expensive. be so difficult, and cutting away more. all, i think, but how mazda isn't quite open about their commanders getting killed. why is that? because as you said, they presumably risk looking week it's paul to come, but they will announce that losses uh with some pride i suspect these become bosses and heroes to that cause i don't think that's i think not starting over the circumstances that will bell announcing with pride, how much has released to hostages today, reportedly on human interior in grounds after guitar and mediation? do you think this is a one off or could we be seeing a major breakthrough here? i don't think it's a one of this would be a strategic negotiating task on the one hand and a propaganda. as
12:08 am
a propaganda efforts on the other, he said it's worth mentioning by the way that uh, under stomach lowest got a settled with women and children should never be home and preferably should not be held as hostages. so this where these can be used are supposed to establish some kind of legitimacy but, but of course that's, that's just propaganda. what's happening here is a negotiating tactic. and we'll see, i think several more of these releases to remind the world of who they have. and what can happen if uh, if the, if there are demands on that? yeah. negotiating tactic to what end? because the timing here is interesting, isn't it? could this be an attempt at saving off israel's announce ground offensive? i don't think so. if there's such a time, it's going to fail the i know i don't think many of us expected the offensive to cost before before. now of course, all the political visits and stuff were put in one sense. israel has the up on the, it's called the wait time, the longer it holds off, the longer it has time to build up. it's picture,
12:09 am
the battlefield is setup. it's intelligence framework and it's targeting, and there's nothing i think come us can do to, to delay that me and let's talk about the ground offense. if that does seem imminent loss is hiding in civilian infrastructure in a sophisticated tunnel system while holding. all of these is really and international hostages over 200 at this point. how does the idea of planning on going about this incursion? so there's a huge amount of assistance, like, i think they, they, they have probably, well, the leading capabilities in hostage identification location. and rescue, the idea will be to get what, what a cool trick us on, on, and each, each hostage of a certain groups they will know a certain groups of us intelligence, a huge us intelligence infrastructure is now directed towards this as well. and it's, i think it's in the open, but certainly as in the open source is that us special forces are on the spot too. so the 1st problem, of course, is to locate the hostages. and the 2nd problem,
12:10 am
the most serious one, i think, or even most areas, is to get people in and get them out. and those efforts will stop if they haven't started already, but very soon. and we will see results, but softly it's, it's, i think in fairness it's, it's a long stretch top, but they will all get out. but all the efforts of these really, for medical, it's really intelligence system plus the us and i suspect the u. k. job. any funds on others? i'll focus on this problem now. i'm not so pretty formidable, right? yeah. at both how i'm us and israel have not been oblivious to what's been happening in ukraine in the past year and a half. how could that influence the current conflict between them as considerably, both sides been watching, particularly the developments and body 2 into 2 elements 1st and the at the tone will, will be very intense in, in, in, in, in,
12:11 am
cause. i suspect it's one of the soldiers, as i said before, we'll have to look up. they'll be looking up on the watching for strike drones, suicide drones and the costs. but for surveillance, these ladies to be using drugs and then the data i and a like directed drugs as you see or beginning to see actually in ukraine as well. so there's not aspect to precision artillery. very important. we haven't seen too much of that yet. but we will so far we've seen arrow at i take the take the lead in precision strike. but i'll tell her will be a major factor. but it goes to elements in gaza. totally different. not least the, the nature of the bottle is totally open. and of course, the tunnel systems and the fact that her boss knows the grounds, so much better than the idea of how big of a complicating factor could that be, are pretty, pretty considerable. the idea, of course,
12:12 am
the house has not every square centimeter of casa over the last 20 years, and well, it's in theory know it well, but you're quite right that, that intimate, local knowledge is very important. is it decisive? now, there is another aspect i think, which is good it's, it's rather impossible, but it's not the less significant it's, i don't. so just want to survive. how i'm us terrace. i'm not interested one, mind the other. and that's what it is that human element, which will undoubtedly what the detriment of many people will increase casualties. and finally, of course i'm us stop that weapon. all 5 of the many thousands of human feels about holding not just the hostages, but their own people. and the political effect injected by that, that, that, that killing. yeah, i mean, the world has been watching in horror really, to the, the deteriorating situation of innocent civilians in gaza. and that is even before this ground offensive has even started. and how can, how my, i guess,
12:13 am
as well as the idea of go about accomplishing their goals while respecting international humanitarian law, which both warring parties are obligated to abide by. it may be a obligated to abide by us, as indeed the only one size making the slightest effort to do so. we have to draw that bright white line between deliberate coming on inadvertence, inadvertent killing the on the idea of come on this understand fully the effect of, of all state destruction of human life in a situation like this. and when people do die, you can be sure that whether this compassion or not is why they come on this. obviously it didn't because i understand the political effect more widely of this and effective might hop on into us, particularly locally. i want to say, look, i mean in the region, of course from homicide. the more throughout people are killed from that perspective. the better. and $0.01 is what i was walking into
12:14 am
a truck that has no choice. there's no, no, no alternative, i think forward as well to do this. but uh this, this is, this is the situation from us wanted, once the situation to which is rarely took took an off to, to a sold as frank let, which thank you so much. always great speaking to you. thank you to call the israel is planning to evacuate. the city of curious, shown on the following days of classes with has bullfighters along the border with lebanon. the city is home to 20000 people and is just 2 kilometers from the border is really, authorities have been steadily evacuating communities along the northern frontier. deal anita goldstein have driven up to k yet simona to pick up the father level to take him south and out of range of rockets fires across the border by his beloved. so my father is revealing that that's one of which i can fix on my take it to,
12:15 am
to my home and try since i've this is why they're leaving sirens. wail is a power outage of rocket streets towards israel from 11 on to yet shimoda has already been hit by those munitions. yeah, i me say it's time to go because this kind of about to ation allows b i d f to expand this operation of freedom to act against the hezbollah, terrorist and civil people. many residents have in fact already left before being forced evacuation for the confident no return. or actually the situation he's here right now, is there a difficult, like my brother say, what you know, what we're going to in? no one is can be tough. that's it. no one is can be done. this is not all over the
12:16 am
world need to understand. we're going to fight and fight on residents splitting the law. so now joining tens of thousands of israelis who have left the homes in the south near a, gaza to another front and the fast of opening conflict between israel and tomas is the one found online. this information is running rampant across social media. we're millions turn to get real time updates. i'm at the very real image or floods of fabricated videos and photos spread by both fake and real accounts. the companies behind giants like facebook acts and tick tock say they've taken additional steps to tackle this information around the violence. but the eu has reprimanded social media companies for not doing enough and about all that. we can now speak to caitlin 10 rosman. she's with the center for strategic and international studies or
12:17 am
see research as the impact of technology and geo politics and society caitlin, good to see here. lots of people these days, getting their information on social media with tensions running so high. are these platforms equipped to bear the responsibility that entails? thanks nicole. first of all, no, i don't think that platforms are equipped to bear the responsibility of content moderation. and there's a reason why they, you has already reach out to ext meta and tech talked about all of this information and harmful content that slowed online over the past 2 weeks. and we're seeing that platforms don't have the resources to detach very large amounts of content, especially in non language english languages. i will say that platforms are in a very difficult position currently due to the very, very large volume of information that's flowing. but also due to the fact that platforms are making real time decisions in very short periods of time,
12:18 am
they don't always operate with all the information. so it's not always possible for them to verify the claims that are flowing. so they're both technical, but also normative challenges that says shop social media platforms are facing right now. mm hm. and how are both sides in this conflict using social media to shave use of the war? i think we've seen the boats from us and the is really government use post on social media. quite often, tomas has been posting on a platform called telegram, which is less popular in the united states in the u, but more popular in other parts of the world. like russia and ukraine, i'm telegraph has very induced content migration policies, which has allowed mazda post very graphic or violent images from its initial attack on october 7th. and israel as well, has been quite active on social media. it's been posting on as formerly known as twitter, instagram, and other platforms. it's posted photos of is really families and individuals who
12:19 am
were impacted by the get tap. israel has also posted it pretty high profile audio class of what it seems to be most operatives discussing the bombing of the hospital . so both sides have been very active and using social media and trying to shape a narrative screening message. and i would also just add that both sides are trying to reach the international community. so their audience isn't just israel, it's not just palestine, it's the entire world. i want to look a little closer at telegram that you just as it's used by him on not only to spread propaganda, but also to recruit new members. now this is an internationally recognized care organization. by much of the west at least, can the platform be held accountable for that? so it's very difficult. and in the united states at least we have very boost content moderation laws. so platforms and generally not held accountable for 3rd
12:20 am
party content that users upload. that is different and in other countries, especially the u, which recently passed the digital services act and the online service online safety bill, united kingdom is that it was that no telegram has not seen as much regulatory attention from the you or the u. k. i think partly because it's just not as popular in, in either jurisdiction, but i think going forward, i would accept the governments to become more interested in how telegram operates, especially if we continue to see byron extreme is content emerge on these platforms in real time or situations net, katelyn, you study the impact of technology and geo politics. how could and social media and the content posted on it potentially shape the course of this war. i think it affects everything. i mean, users, people all around the world, millions of people are going to social media to find out information about wars,
12:21 am
to respond and react, and real time, which seems that the content moderation, decisions that these platforms make are very careful. they affect how so many people view complex. so i definitely think that um, social media also affects how actors act. for example, extreme is actors are finding that they can gain a lot of attention, get a lot of engagement for posting very violent or graphic content. and when they get those reactions, it's like instant gratification rate. it reinforces polarizing views. so i think we're seeing social media change both how people view and access information, but we're also seeing social media change, how the extremist actors themselves are playing out the conflict as tremendously interesting stuff. caitlin to and rockman with the center for strategic and international studies. thanks for that. thanks the cool for having me.
12:22 am
classes have broken out between police and protesters, add an unauthorized demonstration in berlin. at least 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 protestors were protest, sorry, were also held in other german cities on wednesday, including frankford, were police use, water cannon, and then your and berg. authorities had been such protests, sparked by the ongoing conflict between israel and the last to prevent possible anti semitic incident. now, short while ago we asked the w correspondent has brun from our parliamentary studio about the demonstrations here in germany or heres. indeed, we just seen the pictures of those demonstrations which were banned for fear of incitement. and in other words, for fear of antisemitism, turning into a cold,
12:23 am
full violence, for instance, against jews, oregon's israel. and these banding slaves to this clashes. now this is obviously an assessment that the police, the, the authorities have to make that have been assumed that 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 heated at the moment. tempers aren't particularly heated at the moment. they will to be another anticipated take incidents such as the size of david's being sprayed on certain buildings. um, and that has even been an attempted attack on a jewish cultural center with modest, tough cocktails. so yeah, 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 all acting in a violent manner. that was kind of fun. but one of modern germany's founding
12:24 am
principles is support for israel and the protection of jews is one aspect of atonement for the non to era holocaust or show up in which some 6000000 jews were murdered. the recent rise and anti semitic incidents has prompted concern among young jewish people here, but they say they refused to be intimidated of the this berlin synagogue could have been set on fire had the molotov cocktails not falling short and struck the side walk in front of the building deborah cogan is vice president of the german union of jewish students. she knows the targeted jewish community. well, she was shakira. i was shocked, of course, that a synagogue was attack. and what especially this one about because it is a very small community. and i didn't expect something like that you had the feeling of at least being safe here. but as we see now, that's not the case. coconuts impression is that there is now more police presence
12:25 am
in front of jewish institutions. still, many jewish people in berlin are opting to stay at home. and i mean, when i walk by some jewish institutions, sometimes i only see one police officer. and i've often noticed that they're looking at their cell phones instead of keeping an eye on what's going on around them, problems which one was about crowd. well, for this good. even if it's still difficult to lead a normal jewish life in germany, a life and safety, long after the show, a 20 year old deborah kogan does not want her home to be taken away from her. m. yeah, we have had over 1700 years of jewish life year and i would say that jews have always been part of germany. many are now considering whether they still have a future here at all. it's sad to have such thoughts after all these years. after everything we've been through, the jewish life in germany should end with this. deborah kogan doesn't want to
12:26 am
hide. in fact, she advocates for dialogue, even if that seems unlikely, at this point in time. families of german hostages or taken in the last her attacks of travel to berlin to pressure the government to take more action. chancellor or life shots earlier met some of them in israel under please have been heartfelt a y c stell. she's a really yeah. the woman is this picture here. she's meeting heads, phone you born babies knows marguerite moses was kidnapped by him aust terrorist along with 5 other family members. groups. their relatives have come to germany to keep pressure on the government here. that's what out they be. this is mister shows me
