welcome to our viewers around the world. i'm michael. ok. israel says it's ground forces have completely surrounded gods, a city. they say their troops are advancing, despite quote painful losses. the militants are reported to have laid minds and booby traps in the area, and have threatened to mount strong resistance is really military says, gaza city is a center of a mazda is terror organization. israel launched its attacks ongoing se in response to the massacre by him boss of more than 1400 people in israel. and the idea of spokesperson gave more details of the new phase of the ground operation. the lights are as well defenceless as sight is incomplete to the in sacramento, gaza city on the center of the massive terrace organization on in the last hours of tennessee and infantry along with the air force and being executive bases, headquarters, concentration points and of the tenant infrastructure chatham is used by amazon,

not as terrorists. how many companies shut off? as israel says it's forces have encircled guns. a city i asked military analysts moreno, ron if this means the war is entering a new phase. well, israel had announced yesterday that it's target, it's phase 3, and it looks like this. phase 3 will be in circle meant or the siege of kansas city because it's around it from all sides. we don't know if israel is going to leave a vent, open for the civilians to escape. this is a concern amongst others from the united states in terms of the humanitarian cost. but it would look like these trellis trying to we can homos is ability to resist, probably before entering garza city itself and starting the much dreaded urban combat. that's probably the highest risk which has political ramifications because israel would lose support or, or the risk to support if too many civilians died during this operation. however,

as this is a nature of urban combat, and unfortunately the original one good way around it and the urban combat is very slow, is very bloody. it means they're fighting house by house, having to clear everything from the basement to the roof top. and we'll have the added issue here of a multi layer tunnel system, meaning that for most fighters know with very well, can just pop out in one place. whereas these really forces are not expecting them, making it even more difficult. the military analysts moving them around and talking to us earlier the you, when says a school being used as a shelter has been damaged, shafter israel launched an air strike new the building officials in gaza say at least 20 people were killed in the bombing. the humanitarian situation in the territory remains dire. with more than a 1000000 people displaced in many without food or water. of the aftermath of an air strike on a school turn shelter,

run in the northern cause to strip. officials from the mouth run health ministry, say at least 20 people were killed in the attack. the children under 10 were cut into pieces. wherever the arrows, where's the muslim nation? where is the spirit of his long dead children falling before our eyes? what did we do? those wounded and strikes are taken to overcrowded hospitals, where anesthetic and medicine are running out and is really in fargo, one fuel entering concept means the generators that power like support systems for newborns and critically ill patients will soon stop running. israeli officials, sandoval transfer fuel to hospitals when they deem it necessary north mass new i've so, or we have the local fuel into the gaza strip. and i mean, we're checking the situation there every day on myself, but it's not that for more than a week. now because i'm,

it has been telling us that tomorrow the fuel and hospitals will run out with him. so far that has not run out enough. we will watch when that day arrives, the fuel will be transferred with monitoring to the hospital is up to a holding. we will do everything needed to ensure that it will not reach them, us infrastructures, that it will not end up serving more amc. but the real needs of treating the sick people to coordinate these really strikes and cause a have left over a 1000000 palestinians displaced with no where left to go. some families have had to take shelter in their cars. f, when we were in northern casa, and we moved to another region, but there was also more boardman. we sought refuge in the schools, but then they were gone. so we came here on unit, so there isn't enough space about the minutes set up tents outside about, but there's nowhere to sleep, sleep in the car. so there's no work for the children that everyone sleeps on. their cars digit has allowed several 100 people to leave because of the other russell border crossing. but most causes are trapped trulia

tomorrow is the director of communications for unreal in the united nations relief and works agency for palestinian refugees. she joined us from jordan's capital, i'm on. i asked her to paint a picture for us of what the chief of unreal i saw when he recently visited garza. yes, he did say that it was a very, very sad day for him. one of the scientists in his humanitarian service and he's been doing that sort of work for nearly 30 years now. and he was very sad to see the people of gauze all the police didn't community in gaza. so stripped of the community, only they were asking for was a sip of water and a piece of bread. and it is safe to say that we've never ever seen dallas

on in such a desperate situation as we have a few days ago as more than 1000000 people have been forced to feed their homes. our own tasks included our own resources stretched to the the limits, the limits of the limits increase of density. israel says it has essentially besieged garza city. how many people do you estimate or still in the city? and what are they facing? the siege is across the kansas 3 month only and also city holy gaza strip from north to south is on this stage, which means the very, very, very lift to aid and assistance is coming in and including those trucks that's already dropping the ocean. that's really do not correspond at all to

the overwhelming needs of the people. it is very, very hard for people to get out of golf on this house. come on top of a 16 year long located that guy has been going through us secretary of state blinking is in israel to press for humanitarian pauses in. gotcha, what is it that you required in that deal, in order to provide effective help on the ground, given that on rough facilities have been also hit in air strikes. it has been calling for many long weeks now for a humanitarian ceasefire. this is long overdue. we have lost 72 clicks of ours, including most recently our click my, who is her self displaced. she also had, sees a can a disability. and she was working with us as

a software that we offer. she was kids with members of our family. we are calling for a humanitarian ceasefire. once again, our records have been falling on deaf ears and we are asking how many more on how much more suffering, grief, and loss, how much more a cease fire is very much needed for humanity. but to the extent that you can get particular and specific about this, you've also been hit, your infrastructure has been damaged. how long does that ceasefire need to be imagined? you get one, what do you actually need from all the forces here in order to do the work that you do? how long is the cease fire forever? the seas finding the loft and as far as facilities. yes, 50 of our facilities of human societies, among them schools as well. but those are headquarters and also city. they have

been impacted as during this war and only yesterday you may have seen 4 schools. that's where sheltering. but on the 20000 did the have been damaged because of the book environment. i'm because of the ongoing for the have those un facilities. i have the un slacks on them. we share the coordinates with partners to the conflict . and there were people who were kids, including children who were seeking shelter and safety and you and facilities. i'm curious about something speaking to the media, your on which you've said that quoting now hunger is turning into anger and that's a villians. and gosh, i have absolutely nothing or people already starving in goza. there's certainly getting hungry, sir. they're certainly getting hungry, but my kids are ending up. our own supplies are running out. those. um, it says pre k of 8 that has been coming in to downsize since the 21st of october is

by far not enough. is by far enough to know. we have been giving, we'd slower to big ways, but also the big leads are running out of cooking dogs and they're running out of fuel. this is exactly why we've been asking for urgent shipments of fuel. that is julia tomorrow, the director of communications for on many, many thanks. you are a secretary of state antony blinking, easy news realtor pressed officials on measures that would reduce harm to civilians and gaza blinking has arrived in tel aviv he will meet with is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu to discuss, allowing more aid into gaza almost run gaza health ministry says more than 9000 people have died is really bombardment. it's mostly women, and children thinking is due to speak at a press conference in a few moments will be bringing that to you live shortly. but earlier i asked the w corresponding rebecca readers and tell of eve what israel was expecting to hear from lincoln, as well as any blanket. it has a meeting with

a prime minister benjamin netanyahu. this morning was seen the 1st photos that also going to be meeting with the circled wood cabinets in the carry of the military base. she can see behind me in central tel aviv. now, he's here with a similar message. he's on calls coming with a message of solidarity to the us as he has done in his previous visits. but he's also he, with the mission of trying to convince israel to limit the number of civilian casualties in this world. we know that the pressure is on from the us in terms of the civilian casualties. but we've, we've been hearing that the us telling as well that there, it's not a good little faith. they that they need to try to limit the civilian casualties in order to prevent the public opinion and turning on them. we know that the, he's cooling for not a full phase 5 but,

but the limits of humanitarian say 5 to try to allow more a to come into the goals and we know that's desperately needed. we also trying to get most civilians out of this trip. so that's definitely high on the agenda. he's also going to be discussing the hostage situation, which we know has been made more difficult than negotiations, stalling somewhat because of the ground invasion. also on the agenda will be talks of trying to stop this from spilling into a wide, a conflict group. seeing that, escalating on the northern border with his blog. we are expecting the leader of his phone off to speak a pass on this relo this afternoon. and everyones waiting with bated breath to see what he's going to be saying in terms of that regional complex. but there are, you know, all these fees that this could become a much, much wider conflict. and that's certainly going to be on a lincoln's list today. he'll be heading to jordan as well, to attend a summit of all the arab leaders and there who will also be discussing the future

of jobs and what jobs are going to look like in a post conflict 12. rebecca, israel says it's troops have completely in circled gauze as largest city. i'm curious what the word is there on the ground, is it to many people signaling a new stage in the war that is won't be around the military. all saying that this is now a 3rd phase in the war, and that's certainly what it looks like. they've said that they're now completely in circling the city that they've come around the city from 3 main points. so they, they, they, they see it as a focal point in before is the main come on since the main area where i have mass offer, right? so, you know, we know that i'm off operate across the gaza strip and that, you know, certainly why the of riley's say that they've targeting all the parts of this trip as well, particularly in the north, but also in the south where they've told so many civilians to head, to, to leave the north,

we were hearing that the 2 pots of the golf and strip the north in the south of now almost being completely cut off. so any civilians trying to leave now from the northern part of this trip and find it very, very difficult even more difficult to do so. so this definitely does look like the next phase, that whole this thing. and it is going to be a lengthy phase. we're hearing definitely these ground about the causes city very tightly, densely packed, said it still has many, many civilians in it will likely to see a lot more is rarely a military casualties as well. we have been seeing the number of casualties on this . riley sides rise and it's full. but when they get into this sort of very, very difficult come back on the ground combat, you know, man to man come by the will in this tightly, densely packed areas that have, must know very, very well they have many tunnel system.
