the, the business dw news line from ballot is rel, intensifies its companion in the gaza strip. the defense minister says, is there any troops on now operating of the honda of kansas city, with full coordination between land, air and sea force and the growing number of gas and slaves south on foot as israel con, continue to hit the north with strikes. that's true, safety is how to find causes over whelmed hospitals are in the line of

5. we look at of the fights to save lives under the constant threat off on the box the i'm gonna have it off is welcome to the program. these rarely, military claims that have killed one of the top rocket developers for the is the most terrible group home us. doing an ass strike on garza is way the troops continuing to battle. ha mazda in garza targeting underground tunnel networks around kansas city way. i'm also also sold to be holding hostages sees during the october 7, tara sacks. this is really strikes, pound goes, the israel says the next stage of it on how mouse is underway. israel defense forces release this for to give it soldiers on the ground in gaza.

they don't name specific locations, but ground troops to believe, to be targeting the complex webb's of underground tunnels. situated strips gets the integrateds of city. that tunnel systems are going to be a real problem and that'd be extreme. you probably want to at least until i showed no hostages of that this is the number one, privacy, the is really minute 3 could and to drive home us militants out of the tunnels will blow the tunnels up. we'll even start them with the will to now it's a lot. the thing is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu says his troops and making progress above and below the ground and gauze, uh, going into the home. but the home. i'm gonna come out fighting on the style i'm. it is advancing with the forest that some of the law has no going to cause a city. i didn't circle that we are operating in it a point in the evening. we're pressure on from us and every hour and every day, sort of home us the so far we have killed thousands of terrace above the ground.

that goofy sand under the ground would probably look on the go. let me to have like a, as is rarely troops advancing gauze, the city and the noise um its ideas. vehicles also gathering on israel southern buddha with garza and he is really navy released for 2 hours of operations of the coast of garza as well as targeting him us by uh online and potentially soon by see hold on. i just have to cross over to dw, postpone a tonic sam into southern tanya, what are you hearing about the they as well? the defense forces operations in the wrong cause of city. well, i mean these are the military states, very vague as to the locations where there are exactly. but we heard from the army, officials that the closing in on garza city, 1000 and city is a huge city with many neighborhoods the operating some of them. but i mean,

the main target is beyond the standard shots, you know, was as strikes also probably one of the, the areas of interest is to ship a hospital, which is in the center of casa city. the army also said that they has pounds and destroyed a $130.00 ton. the. 7 so that they have, you know, seen on the ways a, in a military experts also talk more about these days about, you know, mounting pressure to possibly come to a temporary cease fire that would be put on the is really government at the house. of course rejected these calls so far, but seem the mounting dest told him on, among palestinians and civilians in the gaza strip. um, but so far, there is no, of course cold for a full seas, for here this with no fee or responded. so we also sold today against thousands on the move again from the north, through the south, as the army has called on residents that are still in the north to move south

sports. but we understand that 1500000, at least the, that's an estimate of number by the united nations, are on the move out of the 2300000 population of casa between and in the north or the south. and we also understand that as strikes continuing, as well in the south of casa antonio, the boy is not entering it. the 2nd month's eye is riley's overall satisfied with the way that government is handling this conflict of the what i think you could say that, you know, there's an overall support for these more efforts. people are still also coming to terms of what happened on october 7th, the terror attack, and that there's a coming together in this. but of course there is a question. what is happening to the 200 over 2 in 40 hostages. and there's a lot of criticism leveled by the families and relative against the government,

how they're handling it. there's also demo questions about where was this for a goal? i mean, is going on know for a over 4 weeks now. and also there's a lot of criticism leveled as prime minister benjamin netanyahu himself because he hasn't taken responsibility so far for the intelligence pages leading up to october . 7th, it's under, you mentioned, mentioned the hostages. there are reports of cuts are, is trying to mediate for a possible release over the summer hostages. so what do you know about that? well, these unconfirmed reports that you know when the media and the policy days, that kata is actually coming closer to some kind of breakthrough that could see between 10 to 15 hostages released. there was also statement earlier in the week by the, on us cuz some brigade saying that they would be willing to release about dozens of hostages. but that is why it's not responding. no, we also understand, you know,

pregnancy have been you mean that, you know himself has said he wouldn't go for a temporary cease fire that would be needed to release those hostages unless all the hostages are release. so the situation is, as always, in such situations, when it comes to, you know, negotiations behind closed doors, unclear and we just have to wait and see, you know, what's the next always we're bringing this regards. tanya came up in that there was them there. thank you, tanya. mike mountain is a senior set of wall studies of kings college in london. i ultimately i bought home us tunnel network looks like and how long it might have taken to build it. uh well i think uh how much has been building its uh for the last 15 years since these riley's last 18 years. in fact, since these ladies pull down from the gaza strip in 2005, once it looks like imagine the above ground landscapes but myriad on the ground. so

you have tunnels at different levels. so you have communications tunnels at a high level in stores, supplies and rockets further down on the whole thing exists in 3 dimensions with some of the tunnels up to 50, or even 18 inches deep. you just mentioned that some of them, uh, 18 meters deep and all that would be like 500 kilometers long. other say that is exaggerated. so your take is that it is of the size of the this web is correct. in reality, we don't know. i think it's also important to stress that there's probably no one within him us who knows the entire network of tunnels the nature of how much is the centralized organization. so different people will understand different sectors of the network. but it is extensive, it's sufficiently extensive that it cause the stand which stands the bombardment that we've seen in the last few days. how much was still able to continue firing

rockets back a israel using this tunnel system even though it was on the very, very heavy aerial bombardment. so it is quite a successful operation from thomas. now israel seems to have cost a special unit special come, but engineering unit to find out more about the location and structure of these tunnels. how exactly will they do that as well? is there a number of ways the, the chief way is by using a ground penetrating radar? and that's not perfect because obviously different types of grounds have different effects of signatures on the other things like sewers and other layers within the ground. but that is a chief way of understanding the tunnel network, or at least where the tunnel installed closer to the ground and the can trace then, using robots and all the uh, you know, drones that are able to move through those tunnels to see where they go to their

suspicions, uh that, uh, the us hostages, uh that how mazda is holding all being held in that a tunnel network. now when an army unit gets into these tunnels to how, how can they rescue these hostages, and how can they avoid the to kill them accidentally? so i, i think the key, well, 1st the, i think not all of the hostages are held in trouble, is that i think a large proportion of them are, but the key here is recognizance. so if you discover the location of a tunnel, perhaps with ground penetrating right on, like we just said, the next thing you need to do is get some sol says on, and i gotta drive, you know, something on wheels or perhaps a fiber optic cable with the camera, so imagine that telescopic surgery that we do every day and hospitals get one of them down the tunnels to see what's going on. and then once you can see what's happening in the tunnel, you can look at different ways of assaulting them. told is

a key way is just to pump them full of acetic gas, so it knocks everyone out and they, they, they, everyone's unconscious and then you can move in and separate the hostages from the hostage takers. now, some also speculating. uh that is where i may use a so called sponge bone. what is that? exactly? this is expanding side. so if you have a tunnel that perhaps you've done your company's united snobs down or you know, the designing sort of slices, then you can even see it off the engine. so see it off a critical junction with this particular type of munition, which basically it creates expanding side and it like you do on a building site or, or somewhere else, it will explode and filled out all the tracks in the tunnels with a 5 and then how that means, so it's a soft it for us, but then hardens into a very hard substance and it seals all the tunnels. black mountain,

the from king's color, shalanda, and thank you very much, mike. thank you. about a civilian desktop and gaza is increasing with the intensification office radio peroration in the territory. the how most one health industry says more than 10300 people have now been killed. the seems like this become all too common in gaza over the past month. children a band, the brunt of this conflict is red. it says it is targeting her mazda militants, hiding among civilians, thousands of palestinians. i'm trying to get away from the combat in northern gaza using whatever means of transport they can find or the leading the one they hold is safety. but that is fall from guaranteed day after day we are hearing from our colleagues that even though to have fled,

that the south is not safe. we've had colleagues lose family members in the south, including one of our colleagues now who 7 year old son had lived, was killed in an air strike on rough uh, a couple of weeks ago. and what we're hearing in addition is not just is it not safe in the south, but similar to the north people. now we're struggling to find the basic necessities of food, clean water, and even waiting in line 56 hours a day, just to get half a portion of bread. these 2 brothers survived the last refuge account in central garza in an area where the is really ami advise people to go for the safety of the for the sold

pauses of displeased to being checked during this you in school the whole of the new test we're still headed towards the unknown, the no one knows we things are going well. how long will we continue? we've left the homes that houses are being destroyed. and we have struggling in the streets. according to the un, almost 1500000 people have been displaced across the gaza strip since october 7. as, as the, as a, a military push as deeper into gaza. these territories hospitals are increasingly coming under attack from shelling and ask strikes is what it says. the hospitals are hobbling homeless militants who are using civilians assuming shields. weeks of fighting have left kansas already or just stretched hospitals on the edge of collapse. they all shortages of stuff, equipment, and medicine,

and an overflow of patients is making the job of saving lives out. and then as of now, hospitals themselves, under threats and areas of active battle is really military blamed time. us for using hospitals as hiding and operation grounds and the civilians in the us feeling it has to be what was the reading is like these as evidence. we will not expect, except mazda is seen, it could use of hospitals to hide their terror infrastructures come off. exploitation of hospital must come to an end in the densely populated gaza strip. numerous hospitals have been in the firing line, especially in the north, where the israeli defense forces now operating the world health organization says 17, out of 20 full hospitals have been damaged in this part of the strip 12 hospitals um functioning

a tool no of the majority of primary healthcare centers of the united nations estimates that almost 120000 displays, people are sheltering and hospitals in the gaza strip. counting on the fact that under international law, attacking hospitals as a whole crime. but that hasn't kept all of them safe. the world health organization says it's documented more than a 100 attacks from hospitals and health clinics and gaza and international quotes to protect civilians are running low to the united states as cold. and it's like israel to respect the rules of pool, your jewish to which you're also a democracy, like united states, you don't live by the rules of terrorist. you live by the rule of law when conflicts where you live by the rule law wars. and that's what israel maintains it's doing. citing an optical and international humanitarian law that states that

hospitals can lose that protected status when they used to commit acts that are harmful to the enemy. what such acts look like, isn't clearly defined the i'm from all of this way i know joined by margaret harris. she's with the world health organization w h show. i'm not going to read crescent says the cook's hospital in northern garza might run out of fuel today. we've been hearing about fuel dwindling for a months now. how have manages, have hospitals managed to keep operating? it's quite extraordinary what they've been doing to does keep on doing the job to save lives. the codes in el cheapo has, has had to move to the sacred regenerate since they had main generate us, which couldn't function anymore because of lack of fuel. they've got secondary

generations which allow them to keep the most critical things like intensive care, where you've got people who will just die once you shut off the electricity. and those all the absolutely critical functions going, but without fuel coming in that. so going to end very, very soon there's, there's also been reports that how moss has raw the logs. a storage is of fuel. and are they helping out? uh, what do you know about that? i have no information about this. the information we have simply is that the hospitals need fuel and they don't have it. now the un says the number of palestinians who are leaving knows gauze and headed south is increasing. again. what does that mean for the humanitarian situation in the south with more and more people arriving the the shoulders are already massively over crowded. the biggest one um, which is uh in um it was the biggest one in the south already has

a something like $600.00 people using one toilet one square and meet with the person really struggling to get a new war to the hygiene situations. absolutely appalling. and remember, they are also fields now with injured people because the hospitals can only take the most severely injured people. and even the civilians and people are discharged immediately. so that there's room for the, the next lot of people who are injured everyday. so the more people coming in, the more and more impossible situation becomes. now tell us about the situation in the north of gauze as well as any of the of that the little humanitarian aid that makes it into gaza, arrive in the north as well. we have been able to supply a ship, a hospital, for instance. it's been difficult and in fact, we were the only agency i was getting medical supplies into the notes and i see it for our teams. frankly. see it every day,

pray every day. but we have been able to get a little a, but it's not nearly enough. we a teams describe how when they arrive, people rushed in, grab everything, rushed back in to just try and use it that they need to use it immediately. now the g 7, according for 2 minutes hiring pulls is in order to facilitate a deliveries is or less stress once more, there won't be any seas 5 before all the hostages. all set free by hum us. do you see any way to supply enough essentially without us these 5 or no, because it's just not safe. no, we're safe and we can't get enough trucks in what we're getting in is a trickle. it's nothing like what's needed and remember what's needed every day. no, really, but right now the needs of much grace, happy goes full of abutment is creating an enormous a huge as to know me of need. and we cannot be said,

unless we're able to get our supplies in as quickly as possible and as safely as possible. that's why we are calling for humanitarian sci fi. and that must have been now margaret, how is that from the world health organization? thank you very much. please. jeremy's president, funds i the stand by a has world against is lumber phobia and anti semitism at a meeting with representatives of jewish and palestinian organizations for the student is really entrepreneurs and the holocaust survivor. ma god sweetened the round table debates on the conflict in the middle east comes on the eve of the 85th anniversary of the coast of the twin. jewish own stores, houses, and synagogues were tact programmed by germans. in 1938 started the condemned anti jewish sentiment that's been on the rise since october 7th,

president was aiming to convey jackie, a sort of speaking with addressing uh, the terrorist attack that, how mas conducted against israel saying that this was a turning point for israel itself, but also for the region and the world and that there is no going back from this event. and then he moved on to address so of the tensions that have been building up in germany since the conflict between israel and come us in the middle east. and he addressed the fact that on the one side, there has been a strong increase in anti semitic cases. in jeremy, there have been attacks against synagogues, there have been expressions of hate against jews. and this is something that he said, germany will never condone, in any case whether the anti semitism is coming from the far right or whether it is coming from islam is a corners and other parts of

a society to this identity reporting that the european commission is recommending opening you membership talks with ukraine and moldova commission president over the phone. the line may be announced with in brussels on what she called, that historic day chief applied for membership. shortly off the roches invasion in february 2022, bob was told to make reforms including tax and corruption. before the 1st round of talks could begin the process to become a member will likely take years. brussels beer chief. i like some of them and told us more about what today's announcement means for ukraine and both of as well . this announcements today is certainly bringing both countries closer to their strategic goal of joining the european union. and that is why both countries have well come. this announcement today with most of and presidents sunday, saying that this is an important milestone and presidency lensky of ukraine.

it's kind of what you all the countries are not going to be your door and go to use today. well, it was supposed to be, i had to go mean a and it was quite a surprise that the european commission has said that it's recommending the opening of accession talks with boss now has to go be now once the necessary criteria are mad. so there is a condition there but still to, to hear the name of this western balkan country beings mentioned today is a big surprise because there are many officials, many you officials and members, days criticizing, bosnia herzegovina for big, sliding on the rule of law and other democratic principles and there was also good news for georgia and you were p and commission is recommending to grant georgia a candidate status of for the pro european mostly pro european georgia in population. it is a good news and huge news today. w's arctic sound of phenomena they're reporting.
