care of every detail including medicine and suit. dorset sharon helped him mother recount they will deal. i'm sorry. thing many, many people the my mom yeah. the

the something that's trust right to the w correspondent, rebecca versus his following events for us in jerusalem. rebecca, we just heard that from one of the hostages, can you bring us up to date on the release tests, which is what more can you tell us? well these are the 1st public comments my age made them from the hospital where she's recovering me. so some of the press conference that her daughter trying to translate to was have you all have a lift shits you spoke of the having been through hell. she talked about being taken on the back of

a motorbike through the gauze and fancy. she criticized the fence as well saying that millions have been spent on that pence and it hadn't been able to protect them as she spoke of having been bruised. and you've heard the door to mentioning that she'd been hit by sticks her her and all the other hostages. she was, we've had been hit by and 6 by the so called should bob, i believe that means use so that they had been injured in that and she itself a bruises she she spoke because you heard there was a huge network of tunnels that they were forced to route because several kilometers . uh and then when taken into this network of tumble tunnels, which he described as being something like a spider's web. and she, she said that the captain, so the her mouse militants told her that they believed him to come on. and that they wouldn't hurt the captives. and but she said that she was provided for that that they fed her that she ate with homeless militants. well, she was down there that they had medical treatments and they were being kept god and the old things were taken care of. she said even women with feminine hygiene

issues with being taken care of. so uh, overall uh, she seems to have be in relatively good health the, the doctors at the hospital where she is being taken care of saying that she hasn't suffered any severe injuries at no one has the audit captive. as medical said, both the husbands are still in captivity, as well as it move into 100 dollar people. and what do we know about the deal that secure the release? the details on the dealer of course limited, but we know that could talk it's thing a very big role in negotiations, trying to mediate with twain is round and some must. but in this one, in particular, we know that egypt played a great deal. so these are joint egypt guitar, he talks with the most militants, of, you know, israel kept talking through them, not directly negate and part of the negotiations. but we do believe that they were

somewhat involved in that they were, that they were the, there was a cessation in the bombing in order for the women to be transported and the costs of the humanitarian workers to come in to collect them. those tools ongoing. we were hearing yesterday that perhaps some 52 national hostages may be released there . those tools are ongoing. we have no further information yet. we do know that mazda of demanding fuel and exchange for those militants, and that's something that as well. so if i hasn't been willing to agree to rebecca, thanks so much for the update. that's the w correspondent, rebecca versus now until october, the 7th templates berry was one of the 1st communities that was attacked by how most terrorists, more than 2 weeks later, thousands of residents have not to yet be located until far as he's all still trying to identify bodies that'll be use mike some the visited the cookbooks as part of an organized press to what of wanting the following report does contain

some graphic descriptions of the hum us attack. security is tyson keyboards fairly today. but don, on the morning of october 7th, the army was nowhere to be seen. the more than 1000 people living here were among the 1st to be attacked by hamas fighters of the realm to keep boats for hours firing machine guns, grenades, rocket launchers, how much lead terrace move from house to house over hours killing civilians are taking them hostage to date is keyboards, this deserted all. what's left are burnt, destroyed houses, and a community in ruins of you know, these really are forward. he's want the world to see this and hear from people who are there. they bring the house on the smoke them out. and when they finally opened the doors, because it was grieved and decided who's, who's to live boosted romney gold was part of a small group. defending the keyboards. he said they fired till they ran out of

bullets. and i got to tell the story because 2 angels came to people. some reserve soldiers have no idea where they came from the us ever so munition and a cell phone. so we can pull the families that tell them where we are. okay. and we kept them going and kept on fighting. it was dark. you arrived when the fighting stopped. emergency responders looking for survivors, found scenes of horror, which just opened the stomach. what small children, a boy and a girl, had started the back and tortured. and i'll say torture now. yes, i'll say the father was without it. they took out his eye. the mother was a breast was cut off. and while the children were brutally attacked and,

and this into the middle and heating the food of how of different holiday holiday meals that this, this, this, this family was suppose. the physical evidence of what happened at places around the country arrives here at a mixture of morgan, central israel. these are some of the up to 200 unaccounted for. people more are still being found. we are working day and night. it shift in shift, trying to identifying every age and everyone. this is hard because people were disfigured, mutilated burned. we are here doing what we're doing because we're thing. this is a whole emission for us identifying the last casualties and all of the civilians that the got killed is so in florida it's for us. we

want to give them their final respect families waiting to bury their dead. and those who saw what happened are angry, as well as bereft at the boots. barry from us killed more than 100 people around 10 percent of the community for rami gold, whose sister in law was killed that morning. there can only be one response. israel most completely destroyed gaza. they made a terrible mistake. there heard us for this very bad the damage to suffer. not even worse. and the idea isn't it will never think of doing that again. this the only way we can live together by them understanding that it can do it to a single emergency respond or yasu land out. we saw the horror says how most cannot be part of the future. we went through a lot, went through the holocaust. we went through a lot,

it will be strong. the world is supporting us. yes, we want a piece. that's a very important thing to piece. yes, but not with home us. peace seems a far away prospect. here in the ruins of cape wood, spinning now is rarely is expected to launch a ground defensive into gaza and retribution for the terrorist attacks and to free the hostages being held in garza. so let's get some analysis from frank language of the 1st issue on the officer and a senior electra at the university of portsmouth in the u. k. it's good to see you, frank. and is rose military says that it is ready and waiting for instruction from political leaders on the next move. what do you think is going through and join us in yahoo? his mind right now, what's he waiting for? oh, good afternoon. and yeah, there are multiple vectors of advice going into nothing. yeah. who's come off the group at the moment? first of all, there's

a dispute capacity between the military advisors and political advisors come back to in a 2nd about whether or not was the time to begin this campaign. this is further complicated by american perspectives to the effect that they don't believe that there are achievable goals. and the coverage is right. the plan and the particularly concerned of course, about an aftermath of not making the same mistakes that we made in iraq and afghanistan. so it's a highly complex situation, of course, that's complicated by the hostage situation. i suspect no decision is going to be made for several days and to be no offensive for that time. but look, it's, it's crystal stuff, but it's very complex. a very difficult decision. you mentioned the austin austin situation, how much is still holding more than $200.00 hostages? what would a ground invasion mean for them as well?

the assessments are being constantly updated extremely dynamic, and the advice going to, as well as commanders and political leaders, will be roughly like this that they may have identified certain certain places where costs are located. and they may fail or may not, but they can get these out and that will be weighed against the potential disadvantage of delay, which i don't see that many frankly. but that's not what i think doesn't really count out. certainly this really hostage release teams will have identified certain places by now it, well, so hostages have pulled the spider's web of tunnels. that's the key thing here. but yeah, that posit the decision on the coast that further is complicated by how much using the hostages as an extensive negotiating tactic as prolonging this time. increasing confusion, of course, allowing them more time to prepare. the us is reports at least saying it once is route to delay its military operation to give us the hostage negotiations more time

. so are you suggesting the, the delay wouldn't play into the hands of thomas militarily or no, i think it cuts a cuts. 2 ways and this is highly ponders will be always interested in getting more intelligence, understanding the bottom of that going to fight. but of course, honestly, americans speak about hostages or other concerns and, and even great to concerns. and that's the real face of the us, has full horizontal extension escalation that they said just by way of example, one example, the us has sent over yesterday announced the sending of what it called terminal high altitude intercept is. now these are only use them not useful against the palestinian hamas, so nobody says bluff. they are designed against a radiant ballistic missiles. so the us is very concerned now about the escalation . and i feel i need that the time taken in consideration, particularly for any off to my i'm the operations taken together. that's the site

to try and reduce as far as possible the political significance of heavy casualties . that time would be well spent. hostages, of course, or an extra advantage of the longer these dis, goes on the coast to move the chance of more hostages to be released. but the danger is, this is how much to go straight and tactic to, to, to prolong this prolonged me. i'll get these. well, let's not make the mistake of thinking just to see about these like amount of time release. is that not frank? thanks. i much feel analysis, that's another tracks that frank led, which in the u. k. thank you. more than 2 weeks into the war. israel has stepped off it's bombardment of gaza saying that it is hissing. hum us millicent targets the hum us lead garza health ministry says more than 5000 people have now been killed in those strikes. gauze hospitals have been overwhelmed by the number of casualties, clinics, all sorts of stuff. medicines and beds. they're running out of fuel to power generations. and among the most vulnerable patients,

on newborn babies the tiny child struggling to brave life support. it wouldn't stand a chance as at god as large as hospital the head of the intensive care unit for pretty much your baths. where he's at time is running out for his patients. well, and when i see those, i mean, we call on 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, gotta be a and that's nice, easy electricity's out in this department's auto body. whether off $55.00 babies, i'm going, i'm in come self. i'm seeing a boyfriend will lose any of those who need electricity within 5 minutes of that highest kind of how much the part since how much is deadly attacks on october 7? he's right, it was in full and you totaled blockade of the gaza strip. electricity has been cut,

minutes and fuel for generators of cost running out all the while these really air force compounds guards are relentlessly. the bombings have flooded, causes hospitals with casualties. some of the women were pregnant with just give us a day, not perfect. and how many we have a baby who was to live with at 26 weeks in the meal and the weight, 880 crowns. some of the houses, assuming that the mother was referred from the north and the number the answer after the house next to her was hit by an ass striking with the or the message i a the, the mother was 3 to to the delivery room. and she was panicking with us to see it on his face. and 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 within the country left us with that. and i received the hospital isn't guys as knowles, which is where i was expected to launch

a ground invasion soon added peril for the hospitals patients the all access to further south is also struggling to cope model so despairing of a new bones. and that's enough that there is 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 5 by the end of the world, health organization says that at least 50000 pregnant women and gaza are not receiving necessary health care over 5000 due to gifts best soon in a life threatening environment. it's the job and sean slot will affiliates and ukrainian prime minister dentist schimmel hall are attending a drum and the ukranian economic form in berlin. today of the events is focusing on rebuilding you crate and the task that is obviously very challenging given that russian attacks on the country continue due to intense artillery. fire will star as

he's in the southern ukrainian region of hassle and have now ordered a full evacuation. children. officials say that more than $800.00 children are expected to be moved to safe areas. ukraine says the russian forces have been showing civilian infrastructure the incessantly recent. katarina lisben and co is an advocacy manager to save the children and ukraine, and she joins me now from key. thanks so much for your time today. so we hear this time, the evacuation of children is mandatory, that have been reports. the previous evacuation calls have been ignored. can you help us understand? boy, family's would want to stay in areas that all being constantly showed. absolutely. thank you for having me. um, as you can start um there is no such place senior creative for children, but specifically in the areas close to the front line. children's face,

great danger off showing and coming in contact with mines. so as we observance of instances to intensify. i'm showing off these areas. the government of ukraine has ordered force or mandatory evacuations. this is not the 1st time it's happened. it's happens in these areas. um, previously, depending on the shift in the front line and it is up to 1000 children and their families that are affected by disorder specifically. and the mandatory evaluations are required when families do stay in the areas um, even after the general evaluation calls have been in place, which is the case here. i mean, i actually work with, sorry, go ahead. as we work with families on the ground, um, just to share with you, um the reasons why they stick around as you said. so um, usually we see these as economic reasons. so families stay

in their homes for as long as they can. and then when they leave, they usually are actuated almost empty handed. and as they are like you to, to see for areas of ukraine, they have to start from, from scratch. um, so one of the families that we've supported and we'll continue to support as a 3rd to 6 year old. oh i know, but for, for children she had moved up from south. so if you crane from time to talk to few crane in august of last year, and as she tells the story, the apartment that they were renting came almost bare and bare bones. apartment costs them about half of their monthly assistance provided by the government demons displaced families. okay. and the run out of economic resources is

basically the issue. catherine, i wanted to ask you about the, the longer term psychological impacts of this kind of displacement for children. and for the families. i mean, you're saying they're essentially going with nothing a comp, the easy, but what about the longer term fact? so an important part of this mandatory evaluations, as we work with the car, is ensuring that children and their families are not separated. um, so the psychological impact to foreign children of course, is immense. both in the us, they are closer to the front line areas, but then as they are displaced they partly for economic reasons. as i've mentioned early, often times families have to forego things like buying their children sweets or even celebrating with the birthday cake. of course i'm a big part of it is um, social um social connections,

the children lose them as they move. often times they are left without their friends on the schools are often online or in a hybrid format where they are only able to attend schools. partly. so the peer to peer bonding is really missing. katerina katrina live in co. i'm so sorry to have to interrupt you, but we have run out of time, but like to thank you so much for giving us an insight into the situation. kathrina listening to the from safe for children in ukraine. thank you. now sol says the boats caring a group of newest korean citizens, apparently seeking to dfcs, has crossed into south korean war since the vessel was intercepted of the eastern port sea full control and those a board was brought to safety. it is the 2nd known case of north koreans crossing the sea border to seek the section in recent months, 9 people cross the west and sea boundary on a fishing boat and met a most north korean escapees make their way through china and southeast asia. it's

got an update from john list, frank smith, who joins us now from the south korean capital, sol and frank. what a south korean official saying about this as well. they're not telling us everything is certainly about the identity of the people that they've retrieved from from the see that's the waters between south korea and japan. they did retrieve again and they haven't custody one man and 3 women that were traveling from the north to the south on a about a 7.5 meter wooden boat. again, as you mentioned, this last happened back in, in 2019, and on the sea. but in may on the west sea, there were 2 families that came loose. 9 people also that you mentioned earlier, they were tracked for seen by fishermen. there early this morning at about 7,

10 am and then tracked using thermal radar before they were again picked up. and yet, can you give us a sense of what happens now to those on board? i mean, and what kind of lives can they now expect? as well, just a reminder north and south gray are still in the state of where there was an arm is to sign at the end of the green $11953.00. so the 1st thing that's gonna happen is they're going to be, they're going to be questioned. they're going to be investigated a little bit, and it will be confirmed that it is their intention to defect, to, to live in south korea. then they'll go to a place called hon, one that's a resettlement sort of center where they'll stay for a mandatory 3 months and received some language education because the language is between north and south are a little different now. they'll also get some counseling, of course, as well as, and cultural education and, and job training. and then when they are released from that, after 3 months,

they'll get a housing stipend and, and some health care as well. and yes. mm hm. so we're hearing that this is the 2nd known case in recent months, but how often do we see defections from the no slight this? well right now there are something like $34000.00 north screen defectors in south korea. the majority of those came sort of in the, in the 20 ten's prior to covered 19 when the numbers dropped. that's in, in early 2020. they've rebounded a little bit about a 1000, came in 2019. and then just uh, maybe a $140.00 or so. so for this year there had been reports during co rid of some malnutrition in north korea. so south korean officials are bracing themselves for, for more to factors to come from the north. and yeah, frank smith's for pushing from so thanks so much for that. and with that you

are up to date is coming up. next is assign show tomorrow today, which looks at digitalization and whether it can help protect the environment. i'm a new group is mckinnon invalid. i'll be back at the top of the hour. it's more international headlines. thanks for being with us. the

most cities they have a key to sustainable season urban centers. they'll devouring energy the will of a solution. greg intention, telenetwork the centralized control, the megacities of tomorrow. most climate frame be tomorrow today. next dw, the,

the vin limitless freedom of the online young. the north koreans fled to south korea where they realize their dreams of the coming social media. to detect is reported, a man lives under kim jim, but then they disappeared without warning. a need to recess as

a north korean propaganda video was happened from north korea, which love starts october 25th on d w. the know what days we shop online. watch movies online. work online. digitalization is everywhere, making our lives easier. but it needs energy. a lot of energy. today's data centers and cloud to gobble up around 3 percent of the electricity produced globally and consume more every year. so digitalization is not really sustainable or is it can digital technologies also help us to protect the environment.
