the ingredients to abuse around the world. unlike ok, there are growing signs that israel could be on the brink of launching a full scale ground and vision of gaza overnight. israel carried out its biggest air strikes to dade in its war against some us terrorist and troops also conducted more ground rates. the army says its troops are still in the field. communications in gaza had been knocked out entirely. israel's military says this footage shows over night operations in the gaza strip. they claim the fighter just hit a 150 tunnels and other underground infrastructure used by him. us killing several of the terror organizations, commanders, some of whom they call key operatives in the october 7 massacre.

meanwhile, his real defense forces have been massing tanks, infantry and artillery outside the gaza strip. after several brief missions into the territory. the idea says it's expanding ground operations. bozza also meant to go in the via advancing in the stages of the war. last night, idea of forces entered the area of the northern gauze. i strip invited activity on the ground, the beautiful infantry, fiddler, engineering and artillery units fucking bucks in the stage, accompanied by mess it fired and biscuits, expending the operation of subs on the water themes. i put them in the summer. almost half of this re lease pulled by the newspaper. myroom would rather delay the ground defensive. many worry that sending in troops could endanger the more than 200 hostages. still believe to be held by him us. but some supporters of the offensive say they feel is real,

has no other choice for them to am reading about the operations, somehow it offers it bits of support and strength. i truly believe though, that we all continue to live in for fun and fear in the face of the mattress. there's no sense of security because we've been deeply wounded on should too much real quick. i'm will go. this is a war for the free. what? liberal values for home for october and our babies are women and all good and fat, and it's not an easy bar. the understand the pin on both sides, but people won't give up. be able to stay here despite everything. the pain on both sides is sure to keep increasing as long as the fight drags on, and there are no indications of it ending soon. earlier i asked corresponding

rebecca rivers in spite hold close to the border with gaza. whether is really troops were still inside the gaza strip. well, that's what we're hearing from officials to michael that the ground offensive. all the targeted raids is the bank will buy these ready military. you're still on going the one that the, the troops that went in last night, a still inside the gaza strip as far as where, where, according to the latest updates that we have. now i also have been hearing that the, the day of trying to work out now they're still caught trying to make a decision about whether or not they're going to continue the fluid and, and try and make this a laundry run and vision as we've also been expecting for the last few weeks, whether they going to pull out and keep doing these, it's more rates that have on the periphery or just inside the periphery line. i should say that just over my shoulder, you can say goals, you can save employees of smaller cuts to face new neighborhood in the north eastern part of casa, and we've been seeing and hearing the missiles and the hillary fire,

pounding not to see things we can see the plains of smoke. however, the of a rising above the sky line is not a very clear picture at the moment because of a dust. those kicked up 5, it was me solves and the dust that comes from the buildings that are destroyed. but you can get a bit of an image there as well. explain happening all throughout the day. we know that yesterday last night in particular was the heaviest bombardment since this ground seems to be some sorry since the war began. 3 weeks ago, dw corresponded rebecca rivers there from slay, wrote in southern israel. splits turn now focus now to israel's northern border. where is really military forces say they struck has but loss sides in love and on after fresh missile and rocket attacks. our middle east analysts, shiny, was on us, joins me now with more shiny. so israel essentially already fighting on a 2nd front. well,

it's very much alert to the 2nd front. it's carefully spreading its soldiers north and south. we have 800800000 is released, has been evicted from the whole homes in the northern go. the part of israel is along with the south in a border. so in that aspect, it's already happening. the people living there are not living dining, where the war mindset is there and is there is preparing for the worst. but we've only been seeing very minor attacks of back and forth between caused by law and israel. we need to remember his paula is actually a proxy over here on the she equation. and this is a she at least melisha sitting in the southern board in a border of, of the southern part of lebanon on the border with israel. and the we've had several rounds of, of exchanges throughout the years between his bod, israel so far is where i was getting close. i. but this is not escalating to israel's really stable or very much dreading what will be his ball as response once they escalate their efforts in gaza. as you keep implying rightly so,

these retaliatory attacks have been very limited in scope, minor as you put it. why is that? well, it could be the americans, you know, when, when fighting came to the region. and he said very clearly he's sending the carriers up to the mediterranean saying, anybody wants to turn this into a regional conflict. anybody wants to test us? please don't aiming directly to the wrong, which is the one connected to his ball off at this could be strong enough of a deterrence so far. it could also be that his ball is just waiting to see how things, how worse things getting gauze and before they get their action going, we don't really know. so is rarely intelligence don't know, american intelligence. everybody's wondering what is on his bottom, his mind. and so further, just be very careful and alert dynamic as ever situation. um we've just been hearing that is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu is expected for the 1st time to meet with families of those hostages within hours. correct. and then when

he had a very brief meeting with very few of them just a couple of days in, but that was a very controversial meeting. there's been calls again and again for a wide, more accepting meeting with we're talking about currently the number of the ideas to think 229 hostages kept in gaza. and um, when biting came when my clunking, when shots came, they all met with families of hostages, kept in gaza in a very personal meeting at this. we all has not done that so far, just sitting in front of this, people here in their grievances, their pain, their, their, their needs. and this is exactly what probably is going to be happening right now. the, the fear to the, to what's happening to the house. so just now that is really is escalating its effort. a garza, that's what's behind this meeting for today. understood. again, that is our shawnee was honest, dw, middle lease analyst 8 organizations say their communications blackouts. since friday is complicating their relief efforts,

the world health organization says it's impossible for ambulances to evacuate the injure, the images you're about to see were recorded on friday. they are the very last we've received and showed the dismal conditions. civilians are facing inside the territory. conditions that are likely more dismal today and on a stretcher here. that's why ridges in gaza. fed emetics are facing in almost challenges. dozens of ambulances have been damaged in the gaza strip. many uh, auto service or does it not you would need for more medical supplies and surgical x government. now you can just the day now you can use, we no longer have any body bags and the ambulance as well. and the last you and we're basing difficulties in transporting decomposing bodies shut off and there are tens, maybe hundreds of deadman the houses that have been targeted. the systems according

to rescue services, hundreds of buildings had been completely destroyed, due to intense bombardment. fast because sometimes hampered into efforts to find to have victims in the thing we lack heavy machinery and rely on private companies. but even their equipment, despite daily maintenance is effected, these frequent breakdowns hinder our work. if i'm on the humanitarian situation for more than 2000000 people, this already died since friday evening, phone and internet services have been cut off, leaving people even more disconnected from the outside. but ideally, because this is the regional ginger coordinator for ox fan, international based and ramallah in the israel occupied westbank oxfam is among many international organizations calling for cease fire. i asked her to explain

what exactly ok, spam want. the image exceeds fire is very, very important. for any humanitarian actors, since we need this since we see the huge need since we need. and we also see what's happening in terms of civilians who are air being and subject it to a very, very difficult situations and circumstances where they come up. f one for their basic needs. there's a few of dying look only to them being in training, but also from starvation on. cuz then i seized the way it is just a be condition for, i mean when he to be an active we haven't seen this in old digital studio books from instead of inches around the world. and we have been in many human city and couldn't situation. we didn't see a place where for 3 weeks we couldn't have access. no one could secure access even to assist the needs even to support people with the basic life saving medications.

not only for the injured and for people who are in political conditions, but also for long term patients. for baby tips people for cancer patients. for anyone who would be in pretty much what a baby is for the $5500.00 woman. well, i'm going to give birth this month alone. so we are really very, very worried about what's happening. i do what is now because of that out? do you like, i hate cutting you off when you're talking about something that so emotional, but we were literally out of time. i do want to ask you very shortly, the un has alerted gaza is on the brink of a massive health hazard. or we already, in the worst case scenario or things to get even worse at this point, or where the black oh good things can get much worse. and in fact, and that's why we also demand the for the return of the connections, not only the internet but mobile and landline connections. so we can also know what's happening there. you just get things unfortunately can get worse. i'm going
