the, it's a 20 votes of deal, which is a key message in the us that we condemn the terrorist attacks by how mos on israel and the strongest terms for the commission is very important that we continue to intensify our efforts to deal with this humanitarian crisis in gaza, me we think that's humanitarian polls would now be useful in order to protect people on the ground. to have been the victims of shelling people about the law. also coming up despite global calls for humanitarian help, for god's only a trickle of age is getting through today, just 10 trucks for more than 2000000 people. as we speak, the people in you guys are dying. so many more with died from the consequences of siege. impose on together street

for to our viewers watching on tv as in the united states and to all of you around the world. welcome. we begin the day as the warrant goes into the dark. today israel's military announced plans to expand its nighttime grades into gauntlet. for the past 2 nights is really forces of carried out what they are calling brief incursions, taking aim at him off. militant targets. rocket attacks on both sides have increased in just the last 24 hours. israel's military and government have been declaring an eminent ground invasion of gauze it for weeks now that invasion has yet to take place. that may be change, it takes and soldiers. they began massing along the border with gauze, and following the october 7th, a mazda terror attacks. 1400 people in israel were killed that day. since then, a mazda, it says, more than 7000 palestinians have died in is rarely air strikes. of israel

says how mos routinely uses civilians as human shields in gaza. and that includes hospitals today the as real defense forces claim that the l she for hospital and gaza is being used by a mos militants. or does that make the hospital a legitimate target for the israelis when we put the question to a spokesman for the idea earlier today? it's a, uh, and this is a big if, you know, there are some protections that hospitals are entitled to. this. there is a military action taking place from the hospital. there is a charles that could lose those protections. this is why today we are right, raising a very serious red flag to the international community to call on from us to leave the hospitals. and it's not just those chief hospital, unfortunately, they have basically established from all the control positions and several

hospitals, all the hospitals using the facilities of the hospital, but also underground complex's on the compounds and with access points from outside the hospitals, into the subterranean capabilities. off of a, a she fund and the headquarters and commodity control amongst or that was peter learned and spokesman for the israel defense forces. speaking with this earlier, the united nations has called for uninterrupted access to gaza to meet the basic needs of civilians. they are the you with humanitarian coordinator for gaza, says that the situation on the ground is catastrophic. food, clean water, electricity and medicine. are all running out israel beginning forcing a blockade of gaza after october 7th. some trucks with supplies had been allowed inside the territory. this week, but not nearly enough for 2000000 people in the gaza strip. the relentless

plumbing continued somebody at the time from the c. i'm in dire warnings that the chicken nobody that is getting in is nowhere near enough. basic services. a company where this thing is running out food and water. running out the state of does a, i've started all the throwing we said, which doesn't, is on to bring over my safety has as all of the risk of diseases looming. all of this is mag west, by the fuel shortages around 200000 people in shouts has received fresh bread from the wells food program every day. and the few bakeries it is still open, a producing a fraction of what that was before the crisis began. with no other options, this woman is resorted to using what type of paper she can find is fuel to bake, click on the streets the and we've gone to good floor under bombardment from the

deceased area. and we've brought firewood from the streets and we're risking our lives looking for paper out of the time on the huffman for. so what are some new copies of fresh water is also in short supply, many in gaza and not queueing up for his bottles. canisters, i'm sure when the next delivery might make it smooth. garza health so. so if he's willing to the hospital, is the breaking point lacking medicine and fuel to carry out essential operations. humanitarian situation on the ground is a key increasing, replete with this woman, unable to breast feed her baby and lacking access to milk affairs, to west orange. i need the slice for my son. skin is grand to be tending yellow due to the lack of breast feeding. what is he done wrong? what is this a be done wrong? this man wounds the day. if his wife and 8 months old baby boasts were killed and

it is right, the ash strike despite totally of his riley assurances that southern gods would be spared. it seems no way of it's safe in the street. and fields about escalation will only be exacerbated by the sheer scale of the humanitarian crisis. but i'm joined now by some of her the she's the head of advocacy, communications and media at the norwegian refugee camps when she joins us tonight from the jordanian capital. amman, it's good to have you with this. you know, we have been warned that this would happen the you with relief and works agency for palestinian refugees, says it will be forced to halt its operations in gossip. what does this mean for the more than 2000000 people in need? and let me ask you, will your organization have to do the same as well? it means an absolute catastrophe. full over 2000000 people in garza because food is running out. water is running out of medicine is running out and

the aid that has come through is just not enough. it's nowhere near and off. and fuel is not being allowed to be delivered into gaza. hospitals need fuel to keep operating. water pumps require fuel bakeries require fuel. so it's an absolute catastrophic situation on the events to night in, in gaza. a terrifying gauze of right now is on the a full communications blackouts. and with the announcement that the is really government has launched a ground operation, we feared for the worst. yeah. initially i just want to be clear, are you saying that your organization is also going to have to hold it's operations in gaza? well, we've had to uh, scale down a operations because of the environment and the lack of safety for our colleagues on the ground. we've continued to deliver cash assistance to support

a civilians and families to buy basic food items and other items on the market. that the aid relief is nowhere near enough to meet the growing needs on the ground . the main. we need an urgent scale up of 8 old crossings. need to be opened. these really government has to list it's cj off. got of garza. and what about the situation in terms of medical care? we know there are reports that many about a 3rd, if not more of the hospitals in gaza and basically shut down our our things improving as age slowly begins to trickle into the territory. i think there was a report that what 10 european doctors have arrived of the medical equipment and supplies that are coming through a simply not enough and hospitals right now need few. they need fuel and

electricity to keep running so that they can treat people with the right medical supplies in care. and this is just not happening right now. and with this escalation and violence with a is really ground operation being launched into gaza. we will see widespread civilian bloodshed and even more destruction to civilian infrastructure. so i'll lead to the international community is to in this horrific suffering. coal for a ceasefire, enough is enough. was this catastrophe is on folding and gaza will lead as a still debating over a ceasefire at the united nations. it's simply not good enough and they must step up their efforts. miss, i did want to ask you what you've been hearing from your people on the ground in gone. so you know that the is really military says that a moss is using at least one hospital as, as its headquarters. we're civilians where patients are also be housed

a senior people. can they confirm claims like that? have your people encountered from us militants on the ground or these claims cannot be concerned. and what we've seen over the past few weeks is indiscriminate. is really bombardment of a gauze as a has a hit civilian infrastructure, has led to civilian casualties on a wide spread scale. a south thousands of children have lost their lives on the is really bombardment. so we need the international community to really focus on ending the suffering and preventing further bloodshed. they really do need to step up and called for a ceasefire. somebody from the norwegian refugee council. we appreciate your time tonight. thank you this. thank you. the, the european union is calling for humanitarian pauses to the findings so that aide

can reach the people of gauze of the you. his also agreed to a spanish proposal to hold a peace conference between israel and homos within 6 months. dw jack pier reports an agreement, despite the deep divisions between the leaders that brussels summit, the quote, the lead efforts to arrange an international peace conference. to try to find a way to violence in the middle east. which is tyson, it's a good sign because it's now about using diplomatic possibilities to my to, to not some preparing them is not without its physical based on that has to be said . as of because i've been, it's widely agreed that the how much the terrorist group wouldn't be invited to such a conference following their attack on israel, which you need is of university condemned. also expressing the support of israel, the rights to defend itself. but with pressure from countries like spain and ireland, the lead is also agreed to cool for humanitarian pools is to allow aid into gaza.

friends went one step further with the plan to club together, e u. countries who want to do more for the humanitarian situation is i know we are going to build a humanitarian coalition with several european countries, particularly cyprus, which will serve as a base for the humanitarian c corridor mining team. the lead is also discussed to planned to renegotiate the you budget to provide an additional 50000000000 yours in economic support, the ukraine, but tongue gary and prime minister, big to old man, recently photographed shaking hands with russian president vladimir putin in beijing, veto the plan. the moment i mean the everyone knows, but they don't dare say it out loud that their strategy has failed. it's obvious that this won't work. the ukrainians will not win on the front line phone number. we're going to use that straight to the it's all just with the e u position. and lead is will pressure hungary to drop it's vito in the months

between now and the gathering here in brussels just before christmas. this. well, the government in key will no doubt be troubled by europe, not agreeing to send more a to ukraine. the w's brussels bureau chief, alexander phenomena tells us more. well, what we got was there. we assurance that the you is ready to continue supporting q crane as long as it's needed for the country to win the war, wherever they were not able to for instance, agree in detail on what they actually had already promised to key if that they want to support key if would 50000000000 euros in the next 4 years. so that's the plan. but there are still countries 1st and foremost hungry that are blocking says proposal. so i think that this is quite boring for kids. that they were not able to agree on that here. well,

there was more impassioned debate today in an emergency section of the you in general assembly in new york when all was said and done, a resolution calling for a humana cherry intrusion was pass. now that true, sure that the resolution is not binding. it was drafted by the us 22 nation era group in point to the failure of the security council earlier this week to take action. israel has rejected the resolution. so to the united states, whose ambassador was blunt in her objections, it is outrages that this resolution fails to name the perpetrators of the october 7th terrorist attack. how much, how much it is outrages. another key word missing in this resolution is tossed stitch, and these are omissions of people. and they give cover to and they empower

a mazda is root holiday, and no member state. no member state should allow that to happen. but since october 7th, the united states is quickly re focused. it's attention onto the middle east, both diplomatically and militarily on friday. us more planes, struct targets in eastern syria, that the pentagon said were linked to iran's revolutionary guard. us defense secretary lloyd austin, gave more details saying these precision self defense strikes are a response to a series of ongoing and mostly unsuccessful attacks against us personnel interact in syria by iranian backed militia groups that began on october 17th. the united states will not tolerate such attacks and will defend itself, it's personnel and its interest. bradley bowman is a senior director of the center on military and political power at the foundation for

defense of democracies. he draws me from washington brand. it's good to see you again. there's a lot to talk about to me. what's your reaction to these us strikes on it ran proxy targets in syria. what message is washington sending to tell you wrong? as i think the by ministration was trying to reinforce then a roading american to turn. i mean, we have seen more than 19 attacks on us forces in iraq and syria in the last 10 days. and i think this administration was that serious risk of leaving the impression that around this terror proxies could attack our forces in a cost free way. so why would they not continue? and so i think this was an effort. clearly they said so explicitly to send a message hit to wrong that there wouldn't be costs. and there wouldn't be a response. and of this administration's prepared to defend us forces and us

interest. but there's already reports that we've seen subsequent attacks following these more of a ron's proxies attacking our forces. busy remains to be seen whether this attack, whether or not the strikes followed what the white house called a direct warning from president joe biden to rand supreme leader by a total. i'll a from a need. i mean, how big of a deal is that? i know it, it's good that the president expressed those warnings and the secretary defense. austin reiterated them, but i don't think that as long as the bulk of iran is particularly impressed by a communication statements out of washington, i think they are going to better understand the language of force unfortunately. uh, and this, this attack was a good step in that direction, but there were reports from people on the ground nearby that there were a lot of personnel leaving the site estimate before the attacks came in. i, i said in the washington post early this week the syria was probably the right place to respond. it didn't take

a rocket scientist to figure that out. and so probably what we ended up hitting here. what we know we had were weapons and ammunition started sized probably with few folks in them. and we also know that these weapons from the sites were used to attack us forces. so here's my question. i have congress is asking, how long does it ministration know about these sites? and how long did they know that weapons of munitions from the sides were being attacked or used to attack our troops? and how long did they wait to to hit them? i think that's a serious question that i hope congress will be asking. yeah, weapons made in the usa. this string of attacks interact and in syria. what role or us troops playing right now in these countries? right. the primary purpose of the 900 or so us troops and syria, and the 2500 or so troops in iraq is to keep the isis calsae defeated by working by width and through other people. so are

a wrong in russia and the savaging want us forces out of syria for a variety of reasons. but that wouldn't be a disaster. it would increase the chances that we would receive a resurgence in the isis caliphate to what is the us position on israel's ground offensive, especially with us hostage is in the mix. i mean, is washington trying to, to just lower down? i mean, we've heard words to that effect coming from the white house. the public position of the white house appears to be that they support as rules, right? to defend itself after the worst single day attack on juice since the whole cost. and they're also eager to get all the hostages back, and there appears to be private conversations about some sort of permitting some sort of window to permit that to happen. but we also know that the boss would like to string this out forever and avoid avoid the day of justice for what they did on october 7th. what about the possibility of urban warfare going in to gone

to meet that has to be a nightmare for, for any commander, for any general. i mean, is that what the israeli military has before it right now? yes. former us commander or a general david betray us with experience in iraq and afghanistan is called the mission study in front of israel. defense forces, quote, seamlessly difficult on quote. i think that's right because of the urban density there, because of how mouses use of human shields. because of, uh, the easy we should, they have many, many mazda of not yours to prepare. they know that territory is better than those rallies, which should excite booby traps snipers improvise explosive devices. this will not be quick and will not be easy depending on the scope of as rarely objectives. and before we let you go, let's, if we look at the, the big picture here, to what extent has the united states been this in gauging from the middle east? and do you think that, that this engagement is over now?

i think the united states has been trying to reduce its military pos in the middle east for a long time. there's by person consensus here that china is the number one threat and we need to strengthen our capabilities and the end of pacific, but completely withdrawn from the middle a. something that never happened and will not happen. would be a mistake because it will allow small problems to become bigger, ultimately requiring us to send more us troops back in the middle east. unfortunately, what happens then really doesn't stay there. and core american interests are in state. and i think these recent events are a reminder to washington. about fact, in britain, me ask you, we've got a couple more questions. there are reports of the united states. i'm trying to get these relatives to hold off on this ground invasion to give the us time to get a better air defense technologies sent to the region. what have you been hearing us announced a few days ago that were sending a sad terminal high error altitude area defense of batteries,

of batteries singular to the middle east and patriot battalions of those are fundamental because i have a point your viewers to january 2020 attack by a wrong where the ballistic missiles on to bases in oregon, a rock and more than a 100 americans had dramatic brain injuries. and that was because there was no ballistic missile defenses in the area. i just think washington wants to avoid and repeated that horrible about for a moment, as always we cover a lot of material when we have you on the show, we appreciate it. thank you. thank you. of the one now to the outcry here in germany over climate activists. you see here behind me there gretta tune back the 20 year old swede and her fridays for future move, but it is under fire for what a growing number of critics say is anti semitism. it relates to a series of posts on the organizations instagram account down in one of the post to
