[000:00:00;00] the is the state of the news line from the israel steps that strikes across the gaza strip. how my sled health ministry in gaza says more than 5000 people have not been killed in the palms on israel middle trees festival with thomas foods last for months. doctors in gaza war and the hospitals are overwhelmed and shelter, staff medicines and pads with newborn babies amongst the most vulnerable patients. and we'll hear from industry the mother whose teenage sons are amongst more than 200 hostages taken by how about 2 weeks ago?

the answer, okay, welcome to the program. another convoy carrying ad for civilians in gaza has crossed from egypt and the last few hours. the 3rd in as many days you and says at least 100, the learning targets i needed every day 2 of us are humanitarian catastrophe. israel says it's ground forces of launch limited raids into gaza and that strikes the hidden minutes and thomas targets almost like the gas. the health ministry says 5000 people i've not been killed in the bombardments is drying the is striking heat . the house in the center console. sunday afternoon, before the 56 people were killed. the injured i rushed to the hospital

as the bus and medics defined survivors in desktop in southern gaza, many homes, but also he finds during the strikes. the heads of 10 houses were destroyed with children between 2 and 5 years old. well, started with a fight to the 16th. if they're looking for fighters, they run the boat or nothing, save signs. i just want. ringback a stray has stepped up, it's a mock mint of casa, saying it's getting dark. it's connected to a mosque that it is. and i've been remitted in groups. the survey are you also to the residents of gaza city and north of kansas city. because when you see that we intensified our attacks, we will continue acting like that when we plan on say, move south on the request. many have heated, but even the south is in fee from his drive the strikes the u. n. c is over 60 percent of god's us population has been displaced and many of taking refuge in

gumps like these lacking basic facilities, civilians, 5th bytes, but shortages of clean water, fuel medicines and food. in the southern city of con eunice, people have to wait for august to buy bread signing. well, i'm somebody who's been here at the bakery store since my only god knows that suffering. now, if the situation continues the same way for 2 or 3 more days, you may, will be a catastrophe in the gulf stream. we have cat, it's our children are starving. why don't we ask old countries and nations to look at us with some humanity? you're just getting basic supplies, have finally reached a concept from egypt, but the 84, it's far short of what is needed. this was the most urgent needs at the moment of fuel was up. food and medicine was fuel because fuel is used to produce water and gaza,

there is no drinking well trained. garza and seal is used to run the dissemination plans. the so it's very, very, very important and sofa. no fuel has been allowed into gaza to hold onto a guess and without more urgently needed supplies. but humanitarian crisis can only get was just a came alkahottie as monitoring the situation from the egyptian capital, a tire of wealth and back to re um, so we have a 3rd, a convoy entering at gauze, and now it has many days where the convoys had a yeah, a cert conroy, me think we need to know less than 50 trucks into the gaza strip and says you and it is saying they need it least a 100 trucks a day. so that's what we talking since days when we talk about you might hearing aid, we talk about less than 60 trucks entering cause i am interested this distributed

by the u. n. n by the red cross and red crescent in the gaza strip. for example, there are distributions sent us like 2 in one case, for example, a school are you in school that also so this is a shows are for people who are hoping that they're not the largest when they're in the you in a run school. and that's one of the distribution centers in the, in 100 units folks, something in the south where there's really army was saying to people they should to escape to rights. and so this uh, these trucks, i think i've seen a quote, it's something like 4 percent of what would normally be needed. does this deal st very delivery of a at this level, or do we expect it to be wrapped up in the coming weeks? what you know, the discussions are going on though, since days they went on 4 days before the 1st conroy eh, could come in and that we have the strength come where we have the best and 50

trucks. it's also not that important. also the quantity. but suppose to what can come in, it's the 10th fluids, ships drinking water and it's medicine, equity. and the report the for one of the most virtuous things right now is the fuel. because fuel is essentially for running the hospitals. fuel is essentially just for the water comes in like normally normally do, we're being it's a honda day for sunny station for hygiene for drinking people in gaza right now. have streets us a day. so fuel, very essentially, as you said, the you and you're saying it needs a 100 to a 150 trucks for the most, except essentially things per day. if you take the situation before the service of october, which is before the mazda tech themselves. and so that is right, we have that situation on the is really located for 60 years where they, where between 458 the trucks they supply the gaza strip. so now we're talking about

less than 50 trucks, or the media is talking about which came into the cars district since 3 days. okay, so actually it, inadequate of a condition of aids delivery was that none of it should go to how much. uh, how is that being policed? it's, it is organized by that you and frankly, i mean, really a to know we talk about drinking water medicine and 10th thoughts. and maybe the issue becomes a bigger issue when we talk about fuel. because that might be of some kind of door to use for how much for them to know even what is allowed in. and it's, these are 80 sites. this is basically defining what is allowed in until now. what is allowed in. there's hardly any door use in that's thanks for allowing that so clearly for us that's coming out, go on it. and it kind of glosses hospitals,

half being overwhelmed by the number of casualties being brought in because of his right of the strikes clinics are sure to have staff medicines and beds among the most valuable patients. a newborn babies, a tiny child struggling to brave life support. it wouldn't stand a chance at god as large as hosp to the head of the intensive care unit for pretty much your best worries that time is running out for his patients. well, when i see them here, we call them every one to send the necessary medical supplies for this critical department for the total or else we will face a huge catastrophe with less unaccompanied. you know, to think of you and that's nice, easy electricity's out in this department's auto body. whether off $55.00 babies, i'm the one i'm in a come self. i'm seeing a boyfriend will lose any of those who need electricity within 5 minutes of the

highest. and of how much the park since how much is deadly attacks on october 7? he's right, it was in force and you totally located of the gaza strip. electricity has been cut, minutes and fuel for generators of cost running out all the while these rated air force pounds gods are relentlessly. the bombings have flooded causes hospitals with casualties. some of the women were pregnant. well, have just given bath in a day, not perfect, and how many we had a baby who was to live with that 26 weeks of the meal and the weight 880 crowns. some of the houses assemblies, the mother was referred from the north and a number then after the house next to her was hit by an asteroid. what was the message in the mail that was reached to to the delivery room? uh, she was panicking. we still still see it on his face. uh once you realize that she was in the delivery findings, they'll do live with this baby. and he was admitted to the intensive care units for

him and the zip code we left us medina. yeah. she's the hospital isn't guys. as knowles, israel is expected to launch a ground invasion soon added peril for the hospitals patients. the all access to further south is also struggling to cope. mothers of despairing of a new bones. and that's enough in said there was a shortage of capabilities and hospitals, and we're afraid that things will get worse and that we won't find treatment for our children. on the sob by the end of the world, health organization says that at least 50000 pregnant women in gaza and not receiving necessary health care over 5000 due to gifts best soon in their life threatening environment or, or renata goma is one of many, is writers whose lives changed forever on the 7th of october, when how much tattered mis crossed into israel,

killing moving 1400 people could not take more than 200 of us. a 2 sons were among those taken hostage. yeah, own woke up to the regular to 630 saturday morning, october 7th. i was away. uh they slipped uh alone. uh my house. um there $12.16 on the normal world, teenagers can, can do that every now and again. um and um i called him just to see that the yeah no the you know, the routine unfortunately that that they need to go into the safe room which is uh, the oldest um bathroom as well. um they were and um then i just stayed with them on the phone every few minutes to you know they were scared. obviously it was a badge of rockets falling into some uh so well uh they were quite skidded um at

a certain point. i said they start to tear it gunshots outside the house. and i told them, uh, it was probably the all me protecting us. uh i started getting text messages from other members of the community. um we live in a small community uh about 400 people. me. and so i started getting texts um saying that they're all terrace working outside freely. uh, trusting the find us army beautiful. um and you know, telling people not to go outside and not to open doors. and then the text went into saying that they started breaking into houses and taking people away and burning families inside the house. oh, a just a tough an hour, an hour later, a problem just, you know, the timeline is all blurred,

but they said they called me and they said they hear someone braking and they whispered, and i asked them to be quiet and to stay on the line with me, just a few minutes later i put here a few people ho, sticking between them. probably 2 or 3 people sticking between them in arabic and the door to the site from broke. even though my eldest held it very, very strongly, he was a strong love. so they couldn't hold is any more they opened the safe from store and i could hear my younger sign on the phone. but i could hear him on the phone saying to them. huh. don't take me on too young and that was a line cuts off. and that's the last i've heard of him. um and they were drugged into garza and i don't even know or don't know where they are and where they're about to, to with. or even there, if they're still alive,

and what have you heard from the, the, the government has anyone, by any touch, has anybody told you what, what steps are being taken to try and secure that release? uh, no, well they, they, they did, you know, right? so there's always someone who's supposed to be like a contact person on cases like this, but they don't have any new information that they can give me. and i presume that even if they were to have new information, they wouldn't give it to me. and they, you know, there's 200 families in israel waiting for those those use. and obviously it's a, it's, it might work against um, the actual one a release if from if they were to give them the information. so i unless on friday, wait, wait. i heard the news that 2 people had been released that,

that must have given you some hope. it has actually yes um you know, i always say that to them. as they know that we treasure life, they will keep them. they will keep them safe because they know there were a lot more alive. so this is my hope and obviously to see those 2 ladies released in a good condition and in good health. it did give me a lot of hope that tough. that there, that, that can be a good answer to this tragedy. and meanwhile, the idea does appear to be building up to a ground defensive in gaza, parts of the items of which is guessing the hostages back. is that the right thing to do to go in on the ground? um, obviously i'm not a m i g f cheese commander. i'm going to be um and

i noticed an army experts. so it's, it's a bit unfair to ask me as a mother, obviously, i don't want the idea to go in before they take my children out and to be honest, i'm against for next, for, for any on the other hand, i sold them as neighbors. all these years and look what they've done to us. they've murdered and right butchered people and families, complete families with bush. it's in their best so, um, i must say, i don't have the the answer to that. all i know is i want my children back home now before and the other move is done or taken. um, i don't know what the best way to get the mileage is if it was up to me,

obviously i'd rather have some kind of transaction and has the prisoners released? doesn't matter in a year's time, we'll have another, you know, 5000 or 6000 prisoners, no, no sales, given hot meals under hot showers and telephones. so all i know is all, i want my children back home now. understood. and clearly this has been a terrible traumatizing experience. why did you agree to talk to us about it? because i want the world to know and i want the world to list to the efforts of releasing them. children should not be a part of the war. okay. the fog and ships and um, i think the world has a great deal of power on the palestinians. you has a little power call has a lot of power. the u. s. has

a lot of power. a lot of money is flowing into the posting of the state, so to speak. so it was supposed this money was supposed to build a palestinian state, but instead it was used to build a terror organization. and i think the role should know about the role should again, in this, to the efforts of releasing my children and the other children, there are 31 children or are involved in any met in any way. i want the world to and this to the, to the sort of releasing them now. i'm home now there's no, i understand. there's no reason to them i'm, i'm the 1st thing you do say to them when you get them home. i don't want to say anything, i just want a hold of them and have them in my homes. i want to make them feel

safe again and feel home again. even they don't have a home to come back to, but they have me to come back to frontier for telling your story, sharing your story with us. and we wish you the best of all possible outcomes. rena gomez, and mother of 2 boys held hostages. by how much, thank you so much. thank you for having me. last i seen your international correspondents, unofficial. how is riley's feel about a not being allowed into gaza? i want us to understand it. prior to october seven's. there was pretty much no consensus when it comes to political questions when it comes to social questions in israel. but that has changed since how most militants have killed at least 1400 is re lease and abducted at least 200 people. in fact, the number that these really government is working with right now is 222 people. that's the estimate of number that the estimate of how many people have been abducted and possibly oh, being in gaza strip. now when you ask people,

how do they ever yeah, you got thing to the age that's coming into gaza strip and it's really very literally, in fact the united nations has pointed out. it's just about 4 percent daily. what actually it shouldn't be getting into gaza strip, their reaction is going to be revolving around their closer and that's if you bring it into gaza strip, then how are you going to relieve the hostages? so they making this very clear, it's equation that they say only a should be coming into cause this trip is full. hostages are being released. something that also echoes with a lot of far at positions here in israel. but one has to also underline, because there's so many various voices here is why you were also very much here. that people say it shouldn't be what they need to be. citizens in gaza strip, who has to pay the price for the action of thomas militants. meanwhile, of course, israel has stepped up, its air strikes across the across gauze in preparation for

a grand an invasion. what do we know about the next phase of this war? it's really interesting because as i've been covering just for the past 2 weeks, they really various moments and building up as the just shortly after the at taurus attack by how much to minutes into an october 7th. it seemed as if a major ground offensive is imminent. but then there was really a delay, as a police it appeared to be a delay when a lot of diplomats came to visit is well bid us diplomats, or other chats or from jeremy, for example, talking with primary submit and you know, and it seemed as there's going to be a delay and just very unclear when a ground defensive will take place. well, a ground offensive healing take place, we'd be something else. and now we're hearing now again with this reading, with warning by israel, that people should evacuate from northern gods that go towards the south and that

they are life and going to intensify the f twice that getting appear. so there's this momentum building up that the troops that are a mass there along the border with gaza strip. that is really tanks and everything that the o ready to go in. it is unclear when this is going to happen. we're hearing though, if it was start, it will probably a will probably be a battle that may take months. and the question, he is obviously why that violence is clearing up not only in gaza strip, but also in other parts in the region. how all of that is just going to begin to link and what is going to mean for ordinary citizens that are caught up in this finance and unfunny, the situation on the other side of the country on the, on the occupied, the westbank, what's going on and the other side is very close to where i am right now inside occupied westbank. it's basically 11 or 2 miles from here. i'm standing right now and they've been exchange of, of a fire. both between is ready forces and, and,

and people in a gaza strip and i've seen people because he's well, is claiming that i'm us militants, are also hiding in occupied westbank vill one has to understand if you look back on history. in fact, is the plots of poxy a main competitor to say, so if i'm us militants, that is a dominant in occupied westbank. but these are our claims that there is a very strong, a big, strong pull. they also in occupied westbank by various minutes in groups, and they also name how most minute things and they say that this is strikes so that being carried out, also it occupies westbank unnecessary to move out the militants. the, as all of this is continuing the question that a lot of people are asking with an oil. this violence is going just simply to radicalization among very ordinary citizens will simply have enough of the violence . but they feel represented only by one voice. and that is either the homeless militants or other militant group. okay,

thank you. that's on the front of your shop and your so you are paying you and your foreign ministers up in meeting it is like some bug looking for a common ground on this conflict. a member states are divided with some batching israel, the bombing of gaza unexpected ground defensive on the side of the bone bond, which has killed too many civilians. the used foreign policy chief, joseph burrell, sick of the block, has moved towards endorsing a poles in the front bottom. and so that humanitarian aid can be brought in to the temperature. a lot move was signaled by the use of foreign policy. chief joseph bureau, a dw, was added to a new c schultz and in luxembourg told me well sir, he repeated the use well known position that they strongly condemn the attack of the mouse. and that each right has the right to self defense under preserving international law. but when it comes to this cause it's quite interesting because mr. bureau just repeated,

or you came this morning and said that he believes there's a need for humanitarian pause. and he said now that he believes that there is a consensus among the among the foreign ministers, he thinks that such a pulse would be needed in order to help to, to bring humanitarian aid to help displace people to find shelter. and as i said, he thinks there is a consensus, and he said that this will be brought to the european heads of states. bear with me later this week on thursday. but if you have, if you listen this morning to the fine ministers, it did not seem that clear that there really is a consensus. there has been some of fine ministers coming here saying very clearly that they believe that such a pause and determined to changed a bit 1st. that was to talk for humanitarian ceasefire. now there's more talk of this pause is necessary and the other one saying that this would interfere with the right of use, right to self defense. so there are

a bit more relaxing if not against it. so now it will be up to the heads of states to decide whether this is the common position of the european union to ask for this or not. ok, thank you for that service here shows and it looks like a couple of other stories down will stuff in bangladesh, but at least a 1000 people have been killed in schools injured when a passenger train collided had on with a freight service a top and about 60 kilometers northeast of the capital, dr. emergency services for more people could be trumped under the wreckage. the awesome team is heading for a presidential run off next month after the 1st round of floating failed to produce a windows 10 sylvester economy. minnesota. your master made an unexpectedly strong showing and will face fall right in the battalion, have you? i mean, i can paint issue has been the countries economic crises with inflation running at 140 percent is a quick reminder about top story at beth. israel has again,
