october 7 attack on israel. it's leaders stop short of saying his militia will join the war, but warns that a wider, middle east conflict as possible the welcome to the program. us secretary of state antony blinking, has called on israel to protect civilians as its forces closed in on gaza. city meeting with is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu until a v blake and repeated that israel has the right an obligation to defend itself. so that milton can no longer massacre people on its soil. and you called for a pause in the fighting to allow aid and essentials into gaza. i've seen images to as a palestinian children and boys and girls pulled from the wreckage of buildings.

when i see that when i look into their eyes through the tv screen, i see my own children. we need to do more to protect palestinian civilians. we've been clear that as, as bill conducts his campaign to defeat him, us how it does so matters. i spoke to is really leaders about tangible steps that can be taken to increase the sustained delivery of food, water medicine fuel another central needs while putting in place motors to prevent diversion by him. us and other terrace groups. we've identified mechanisms to enable fuel to reach hospitals and other needs in the south. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu said his country would press on with its action and gauze, all we're continuing with all those trend is red, is refusing a temporary cruise that does not include the needs of our hostages, is that it will not enable the entry of fuel into gaza and oppose this strong

spring money to this trip to as our correspondent tanya kramer followed lincoln's visit. today's enjoys me now from jerusalem, tanya, the secretary of state stressed the need for humanitarian aid and for 2 minutes harry and positive, as he called them in gaza. what influence could his appeals have on israel's future course of action? well that's why do you see much more pressure from the us know more emphasis on this humanitarian aid and vision monitoring pauses as he called it. so he said that would be some mechanisms now put in place. so talking about, you know, at the moment on these dozens of trucks, of course, coming into garza from egypt that is beyond the need for the cause of population there. and at the moment also, the movement of people is very restricted. if you only see, palestinians was to a citizenship coming out, of course the majority of palestinians, if they would like to, they cannot get out of casa. but of course,

they also talked about the humanitarian pauses. but that he said this is still under discussion and he said, you know this, the discussion about when this will happen, how it will happen and be heard also the a prime minister benjamin netanyahu. then after this press conference by the secretary of state and the pink and actually rejecting the idea of having a temporary cease fire or such a humanitarian pause is hostages or not really. so at the moment, i don't seem to be a break. so, and having any of, of, of, of, of sort of cease fire. that is actually what you, many tearing organizations and the united nations have called for, given this catastrophic situation for the civilian population. and garza. and just today, these really military said it hit an ambulance mirror and gauze as big as hospital the i'll she for hospital. what more do we know at this stage? while we don't know uh, all the details. uh, the how much house officials have said that and in golf so that it was

a 2 on sporting that it was a conroy going from the ship to hospital. that's the largest hospital in gauze or city. we're also a lot of people are seeking shelter or trying to seek shelter that this combo of ambulances was hit at the entrance of this of the she for a hospital. they were on their way to off of this is from the official stair. but we also got a statement, nobody is rarely ami, they concerned that it targeted an ambulance. so talking here about an ambulance outside chief a hospital and they claim it was used by hum us and it was in the, in close proximity to a, a battle a zone as they put it. they also said they will release more information in the hours to come as tanya kramer with a lead us from jerusalem. thanks for that. and aaron, david miller is

a senior fellow at carnegie endowment for decades. he worked at the us state department on the us policy on the middle east. mr. miller, welcome back to the w. l prime minister netanyahu had said calls for a cease fire would equal calls for israel to surrender. today we heard him connect the possibility of a temporary truce, demoss releasing its hostages. how big a shift is this in this position? so if in fact the prime minister is offering a trade, a temporary cease fire for the release of all the hostages, i think that's probably deal these release might might want to make if it's just a release of the for nationals leaving these rallies. jewish is really is behind or is really nationals behind. they may not all the jewish, i'm not sure that the government is prepared to accept it, but the reality is the hostage negotiations are incredibly opaque. neither you nor

i, frankly have the biggest clue about what is actually happening in these days of negotiations moderated by the countries and the addictions. these really in the america we just don't know. yeah. and i did speak to someone familiar with the hostage negotiations though, and they said from us won't release the hostages until the bombing stops, which, you know, when that m, yahoo says we will stop the bombing once the hostages are released and a mouse says we will release the hostages once the bonding stops. where does that leave us? well, and you could try thought experiment or you could test tomas his intentions. or by creating a you can even, you know, create a humanitarian pause. for 6 a 1024 hours. do you think that's something that we got israel would go for just to try it out saying that it would you know or given what they've been saying about

about the risk that truces bear for them, especially now when they say that they have in circle gaza city, right, well they didn't have to leave their establish position. i mean a 12 hour you mandatory truce or series or you manage your interest is in, in localized areas to allow humanitarian assistance in and to allow and incapacity . you probably the syrians to move in to say for areas might be something we're trying, what they want is create an extended ceasefire that needs to be negotiated. the real question is, is how much put on the, to the release of the form of the highest, the 240 estimated humans that they have me, which is rarely to agree to cease the bombing. and then of course for how long once a mouse fries the hostages, one of their,

the points of leverage and their cards then disappeared. so i don't know. and again, how much is also wanted the release of the anywhere from $5.00 to $6000.00 palestinian prisoners who are these rallies now hey, hold on a 3rd of them uh without, without trial and administered detention. and then so that's another angle here i again, i'm not trying to be difficult, but i really think we don't have anything remotely resembling of a fair gras. yes, that's what these proposed really valves. yeah, at the situation in gaza is becoming more and more hellish by the day, the secretary of state. and to me blinking was clear today when he said it matters how israel does this now with a humanitarian crisis, deteriorating will be us before us at some point to draw a red line for israel in its fight against homeless and goes on. the question is, what, what red line are we talking about?

if we're talking about an american president saying to and is really prime minister, stop enough, stop the campaign stopped the bombing stop your operations against how much does infrastructure 1st of all, that conversation, i cannot imagine happening. so when you talk about a red line, the question is exactly what line are these release permitted to cross? and i'm not sure that this president or frankly, any president under the circumstances or heard to have that conversation. the real question to me and i can answer it is one of the secretary states, as he's discussing with these really concrete measures that will prevent the deaths of palestinian civilians to and allow the israelis to continue their military operations to replicate how much, what concrete measures is you talking about?

oh, yeah, i've seen only 2 options for the x rays. number one, stop the bombing in circle, gaza, and then go house by house. we bulldozers their engineers, there demolition experts, their special ops house by house. it'll take weeks if not months. and the cost we rarely soldiers would wisely be in the $100.00 just not the 1000. that's one possibility. yeah, i can't imagine this is really government being willing to accept that level of, of uh, the death of its own soldiers. second option is to stop the wrong campaign and pursue a more targeted set of operations that would last months. and that is for sure. these rallies are not going to accept because that will permit home us to remain with the assets with the hostages. yeah, for very long periods of time,

i just don't think there is an answer to the problem of eradicating from us and still projects civilians. yeah. oh no, i seem to be mad opposite. at this point we'll have to leave it there. we're unfortunately running out of time though, is the aaron david miller from the currently game down. and thank you so much for all of that. thank you. israel says its troops have fully surrounded gaza city that became the focus for attacks on israel order civilians to flee south. though still trapped in the city are now a grave risk. explosions continue to rock houses north. even as israel's military set, its troops had fully encircled guys a city, israel's military release. these videos as its soldiers prepared to enter the city back by more military force hitting gaza simultaneously. for many friends,

quotes of israel defense forces 7 circle garza from the air, land and sea. yeah, they've been circle the city of casa and it's around a bar advancing troops that is drawing terraced infrastructure is built above the ground. you'll stand under ground and they're eliminating terrorist, lima. israel's military says that it's operation is killed over a 100. i'm us militants. but international organizations warren, that the civilian toll on the palestinian side is increasing by the day and the worsening humanitarian crisis. to sustain the money to it in dispos on the scale needed, we need hundreds of tracks to interact goes every day. at the very least we need he money to dan. pause in the fighting and i l e s.

these 5. let me be clear. there can be no justification for how much is hard if you've got tax on these. we have. so the guys, a health ministry run by him us says over 9000 people have been killed. with guys, the city fully surrounded the gaza strip home to over 2000000 people faces even more carnage. israel continues to pose calls versus fire. i remember on joins me now. she's the military analyst and kings college london. marina. so what is it next for the idea after it says it has encircled kansas city? good evening, nicole. well, what it looks like right now is that indeed there is going to be a complete siege of the city. what we're seeing here is a city is being and circled in order to control the movements in and out of the city. but each row claims that they still have left the war for civilians to

leave and they want to the civilians out of the funeral for operations, for obvious reasons because they will make it difficult. so we estimate that once some civilians leaves us will, will not be open for a long time. the east right, as it is rarely forces will close the circle and then start coming the city's street by street house by house. but how much light is know the environment much better than the idea? how much of a challenge will that be for them? it is a huge challenge. generally speaking, urban warfare is a most dreaded type of work fear. and specifically because how much is on its own land. so to say is a know every single street corner and every single house basement, they have their extended tunnel network as well. so they have the advantage. they are defending the gaza city and for that use rarely for us as the risk is very high

. so and it is a broad printables that there will be high casualties. also on the east rally side this because the strength is coming from all directions and even using air power and using naval assets just drive targets within the city is not going to minimize that risk. let's take a closer look at this tunnel system. the gods metro as it's called. how can these really army go about destroying that tunnel system, which is what they're aiming to do, especially with is really hostages, believe to be held there to well, i think the crux of the problem is indeed the israel lead hostage is because the id f quote filled the tunnels was gas, i mean these panels need ventilation, otherwise you cannot to use them and they could possibly, and the tunnels from not from the air, but directly by, by throwing explosives,

they have engineers and destination experts that could do that. but the problem is that you have the hostages there, and you don't know exactly from the east rarely point of view. the lay out of those panels, how many levels they have and where is the lead? so the, there is some intelligence on that, but it's very difficult and it's going to be a huge problem because i'm off fighters can pop up in any location because they knows that system very well. and a surprise that use rarely forces so that that will be the most difficult component of this urban fight is to control the tunnel system or destroyed me marine up. there has been strong condemnation around the world of the civilian casualties and the suffering. these really mission in gaza is causing no with how much using causes as human shields. is there a possibility at all to find the terrorist without creating an variable hardship for civilians as well?

that was the problem that the, the us and the british forces had enough gattis span. and then it depends on the situation, of course, but then you would have to avoid the operation in order to not to create more casualties or collateral damage. but then suddenly electricity, ations, you have to take the risk of knowing that this will create a collateral damage if the military objective is important enough, so it will be situational. but of course, there will always be criticism because nobody's on the ground to assess the situation. and to say indeed, this was the right time to strike the terrorist despite the fact that there were people around as moreno moran military analyst from kings college london. thanks so much. thank you for having me. the leader of lebanon's has beloved her group has broken his silence about to have most attacks on israel

house on those rolla, raise the operation and said his militia is engaged in unprecedented cross border finding. with israel, he stopped short of saying, has the low would fully join the war, but the warrant a wider, middle east conflict is a realistic possibility. large crowds turned out and the lebanese capital bear rude to hear. the widely anticipated speech has blot is backed by iran and is classified by the us and germany as a terrorist organization. now and those are all as said to the october 7th attacks on israel or carefully planned done up by level how if you're not seeing any um yeah, this decision to carry out this operation was 100 percent palestinian. the and it was carried out by palestinians, the ones who planted kept it secret from everyone, including the different resistance factions within guns that they also hit it from other countries in the excess of resistance. i like a special ed one more problem as well for little while i may or may i have been see

the fact that no one knew about it proves that this battle is completely palestinian. man, i was going to stay in the palestinian people in the bible and has no relations to any regional or even the international issue of believe me, i will do any. oh my shock i i looked a lot that was the leader of hezbollah. how son, as well as speaking earlier today, we can now take a look at some more stories making news around the world. at least 5 people have been killed in the central italian region of tuscany following torrential rain from storm kiran flood water swept through parts of the popular holiday destination. the italian government has declared the state of emergency and you're marked 5000000 euro as to how the worsted area. france is to step up support for the west. african echo was block and an effort to restore democracy,

following recent cruise. french for administer, kathrina colona. i made the pledge and nigeria transitions to democracy are stalled in molly and burkina faso long. these air has rejected demands to restore constitutional order. german foreign minister on elena bab bulk has urged armenia and as or by john to resume internationally mediated peace talks. weeks after is or by john re took control of the dispute in the corner of cairo by region. she made the comments during a visit to the or median capital. you're your yvonne, armenia and as or by john, i've been locked in a conflict over the region for decades to you as presidential biden is to host leaders from latin america and the caribbean at the white house. they'll focus on economic issues as the us 6 to bolster ties in the region to counter the influence of competitors, including china. migration will also be high on the thousands of migrants in

northern mexico seeking to reach the us border. embarking on a dangerous journey in hopes of a better life to deal with an increase of migrants crossing the us. northern border dividing administration is seeking help from its regional partners. many of them are visiting washington dc to address concerns about economic development and inequality. with 2 of the names of the new american partnership, freakonomics prosperity, the us presidential biden launched in los angeles last year. there is no reason why the western hemisphere can't be the most forward looking most democratic, most prosperous, most peaceful, secure region of the world. we have unlimited potential, we have a norm as resources and democratic spirit that stands for freedom, an opportunity for everybody. ahead of the summit in the white house, several latin american leaders attended a full room at the into american development bank. many topics will be on the agenda of the 1st a t p meeting here in washington, d. c. hall, 10, a corporation,

economic corporation we've posted in the region how to do what to do against a regular migration from central america. and another topic that will like you to be part of the talk this how to deal with venezuela. a country that recently signed an agreement, promising free and fair elections and exchange of lifting sanctions. but it is now being accused by the united states of breaking part of those promises. some officials in letting america say the us has no strategy for the region. it is now up to washington to deliver the concrete action that reported filed by our washington correspondent benjamin alvarez. benjamin, good to see you at migration. always a sticky issue. will leaders were able to make any progress at the summit. you think i is it is definitely a sticky issue. the words migration of migraines was not part of that community that was published at by the white house of this meeting that already took place

between the us presidential buying and several leaders of the americas. well here that is indeed the difficult topic they will talk on one side on this be konami's partnership was launched by the us president last year. this was the 1st summit, the 1st time that they met. and of course, both of these things are tied because if you have more economic opportunities in the region, far less people will have the needs to try to migrate these do these things or is it roads? and of course, to get to the united nations a, to the united states already. but china is, of course, a really big topic as well. it's a country that has a lot of influence in the region. we have a, this initiative by china with many south american countries who are going towards china not towards the u. s. many see that this country, if this region has been neglected, not only by the, by the end of ministration. so migration is also at the topic that many of the leaders have during the lateral it meetings, but it's not part of this final agreement. they came out of to this meeting today.

so is this meeting washington's way of making latin american leaders feel less neglected than so there is criticism by some leaders, and they say that the, you, as the washington has not a real strive to do when it comes to dealing with this reason, what does this partnership and meanwhile the other countries of the big country is not part of this group. what happens with argentina? what happens with and with brazil? for example, imagine tina was in the meeting a today. but if we look at the region of how they can actually develop, if there is a strategy by the us, how to deal with this different topics of a migration, but also to get in a more, a more realistic approach of what this countries actually mean. and not just a talked about economic topics, but many that are also still poured in are important to be addressed as benjamin abra, scriver from washington. thank you for watching the table. you know,

it's live from berlin. here is a reminder of our top stories today to us, secretary of state antony blinking has called for more protection for gods and civilians. mister blinking also said there needs to be an immediate and substantial increase in humanitarian aid going into the palace damian territory. israel's military says it has surrounded gaza city as it presses ahead with its campaign against the army says its encountering mines and booby traps and that the militants have prepared themselves for battle. and the leader of lebanon's hezbollah, tara group, has phrased the october 7 attack on israel pass. on this, rollo stopped short of saying his militia will join the war, but warned a wider, middle east conflict as possible. unless you're news of the day after the break are documentary serious visits, temporary river islands in bangladesh,
