the bronze of this conflict is red, 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 the leading to what they hold is safety. but that is fall from god. indeed day after day we are hearing from our colleagues that even though to a 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 rock 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 give half
9:03 pm
a portion of bread. these 2 brothers, so by the last refuge account in central garza, in an area where the is really ami advise people to go for the safety. for the south pauses of displeased being sheltering this you in school the whole of the analysis. 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 are struggling in the streets. and according to the un, almost 1500000 people have been displeased across the gaza strip since october 7.
9:04 pm
earlier, we spoke to him today already a palestinian journalist in kansas city. and we asked her to describe the situation there right now. i'm in the middle of the center of the call just to see right now it's sorry. all i hear is expensive. i really don't know where these exposures are, but i assume they are in the north. another area because the troopers talking about a job. yeah. design yeah, in these areas i can see like thunderstorm, but this is not under the explosion. a rough thing. the situation today has been a catastrophe. it, to be honest. we have been listening to a lot of appeals from different colleagues that they have been injured since air has been the cause of truth and no one is being able to to sit, rescue them now and being able to go and hudson. we got the fields from people in
9:05 pm
schools, people and that have been at like their housing have been gone. people are i do the rather no civil defense. no, i didn't cuz we're able to to rescue them or to trends for them. yeah, it turns to some of the cost of it start great now and it's night and everyone in the districts there are $2.00 will be out of to use in the god right now. he chasing the fact that it's night right now and it starts and there's a lot of explosions happening right now. that was the palestinians are listening to dari speaking with is from garza city. the united nations secretary general and tony would cherish, has once again condemned the her mazda attack on israel. he has also criticize the high number of civilian casualties of the is really army offensive, is causing in gauze of the home, off run, health, ministry, and gods. and says, more than 10500 people have been killed by is really airstrikes,
9:06 pm
many of them children. and then i've, i elation is by how most when they have human shields. but when one looks at the number of civilians, that's what killed with the mean federal potations. that is something that is clearly wrong. the highest number of killing of children by any of the accessing all the conflicts. that's a weakness is the maximum in the hundreds. we have in a few days in augusta, thousands and thousands of children killed and was un secretary general there antonio put together numerous angie, owes accuse israel of committing more crimes by attacking civilian areas, killing thousands of people. israel says that it is hitting him us military targets . mark weller is a professor of international law at the university of cambridge. i asked him what the rules of war say about israel's strikes on, gosh, it national or do you mind that any part you to conflict must apply,
9:07 pm
which is called the principle of distinction. you must always be able specifically to target the combatants of the other side and keeps safe as much as possible the civilians. what the un secretary general has just said is that on the face of age, israel has lost, let's say 30 or 40 overt service members in this conflict and on the other and 10000 civilians have died. the balance that should exist between protection of civilians and military gain seems to be out of hand in this instance. we know that is real as use the right to self defense to justify the attacks that we're seeing many western countries. i've also supported this. how far is the right of self defense applicable to the right of self defense applies? this is clear that the attack of the 7th of october launched by how mouse and
9:08 pm
titles is ro to respond even through the use of force. but the use of force must be targeted specific to add a mos edits fights us at the threat of further terrorism, which is ro is entitled to remove if necessary, forcibly. the fact that how must itself, i will have committed a grateful crime through the atrocities of the settings of october. does not mean that the civilians of palestine have lost the status as people under the protection of you want to try and low. that means that is or must not undertake strikes against targets where the civilian injury is excessive in relation to the military game that this kind of attack brings. and the other thing is, the principle of purchase is that in this case, even if it is a ledge that there are uh, how much a purchase hiding under buildings or something like that somewhere else. uh that
9:09 pm
that doesn't relieve israel. all the obligation still to minimize the damage to civilians, even if that means it will be more difficult for that. so just try and gauge the most fighters. but if it is true that homos is embedding itself in areas that have that are densely populated with civilians that any attack is going to in evidently result in civilian deaths, right? the most uh it was submitted trees and this does certainly include is ro, i actually have target to lawyers who sits and consider whether any particular attack is low full. and the balance in each case has to be made. if the, even if there's some sort of almost infrastructure under a particular target, we're not quite persuaded that that is always the case. when buildings are targeted, sometimes it looks like retaliation. but even if that is the case that doesn't
9:10 pm
relieve as row of the duty of protection of civilian at comp, just say that these are human shields that are not willing to human shoes, replace themselves in this danger. the civilians who do not lose the title meant to protection, or at least it is where it has to ensure that the damage to civilian record, incidental damage or injury, is not out of proportion to the military gain that any particular operation frame. and that seems to be, i'm saying that becomes problematic as this conversely continues as the actions of the military. but on the side of his road go seem to be disproportionately affecting civilians. and you know what you say there you're talking, you were speaking about proportionality. we know that the geneva conventions say that more fear must be guided by the principles of proportionality. it can we speak
9:11 pm
of proportionality with more than 10500 palestinian deaths. if we are to believe what the gaza health authorities say, he, i think few people are doubt that there are extraordinary numbers of civilian deaths. and that is why the un secretary general has pointed to this in balance between the alleged military benefit. but is row claims, it's just assuming in any particular attack and with evidence, the disproportionate civilian injuries that result. and that is why the principal criticisms of his role and i think is correct to be critical. and the other one is to deprive a civilian concentrations of that which is necessary for the survival depriving the civilians of food of water of hospital. ready of energy i cannot really be justified, is rosa, as well. otherwise,
9:12 pm
how mazda might take over some of those supplies. but the answer to this is that the, i see, i see the un or how the agencies could safe god and ensure that all the civilians benefit and the present practice of displacing a 1000000 people into an area that itself is subject to attack. and then denying human and tired supplies to those civilians which you have driven out. that is also very difficult to justify more color professor for international law at the university of cambridge. mr. well, the we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. thank you. so much israel's military operation is concentrated on garza city. it says how boss is made the densely populated city, its terrorist space building a bass network of underground tunnels. to hide out in the operation. it's complicated by the hostage is he received by him oss on october 7th is rarely
9:13 pm
authorities believe more than $240.00 people are still being held in. goss is really strikes pound garza as israel says, the next stage of its will. and how mouse is underway. israel defense forces release this for to, to that soldiers on the ground in gaza. they don't name specific locations. the ground troops to believe to be targeting the complex webb's of underground tunnels, situated streets, gets the intake of the city. the 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 or that this is the number one piracy, the is really minutes. shree could aim to drive home us militants out of the tunnels, will blow the tunnels up. we'll even shut them with see will to now see a lot. the thing is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu says there's troops and making progress above and below the ground and gauze. uh,
9:14 pm
going into the home. but the home, i mean, come on, exciting. and the style is advancing with a force that's a mind. loss has no way to cause a city encircle that we are operating in it upon the evening or pressure on some us and every hour and every day. sort of home us, you so far we have killed thousands of terrace above the ground. that goofy sand under the ground will probably look. okay. let me go ahead look. as is rainy troops of on some gauze, the city and the noise and audio vehicles, also gathering on israel southern buddha with garza. and he is really navy released footage of operations of the coast of goza, as well as targeting him us by uh, online and potentially soon by see well i asked is really journalist saw me circle in jerusalem and how these really public and the army itself, how they're perceiving the gaza offensive scale,
9:15 pm
and i can tell you the v is rarely minutes, are use very content with the progress of this campaign. and they're talking about very good, the corporation between the ground forces and the air force and artillery. and at the same time, you have both the regular army and reserve duty as soldiers in big numbers and, and they're saying that things are coming along smoothly. true that they face a resistance and no one is as being surrendering and they haven't seen any how much fighters surrendering. but they say that in all the different classes that they have had so far, and then being winning and the there are no exposing also at the time those. and the idea of spokesperson has exposed the recordings and evidence. so they say that's how most of it is using ambulances and different the facilities for the fighters. you say that these really military is content with where they are right
9:16 pm
now and it does that. what about the is really public. so me are, are they satisfied with the way that their government is handling this conflict? that i think when it comes to the, to the gods. a strip of the public hearing is where it is differently is supportive of an aggressive approach. and the, even the, then the guns who kind of like was in the opposition and is now in the war cabinet . and he's in the same line together with this on the whole. and this is kind of like the bulk of the majority of the is where in the public and the, well, they want to see is the kind of destruction of how mosse the they're talking about, the illuminating, the threats and the they don't want to be stalled. and therefore the talk about the ceasefire is, is something that they see is somebody that could threaten the forces around 70.
9:17 pm
there are reports that could tar is trying to mediate for a possible release of some of the hostages of what can you tell us about that? yeah, well the reports are uh with different kinds of reports. we have also reports coming out of color. we have reports coming out of egypt, and also the egyptians have some proposals. according to some reports, we're talking about the release of 50 and, and other reports folks about the re, so 12 of the hostages, half of them american and, and we're talking about the sci fi of 72 hours. but i can tell you that these really minutes area and these really government and then not the interested in a ceasefire, and they've made it very clear in statements of this evening, of the idea of spokesperson said that they're not interested in espanol said that
9:18 pm
there is no ceasefire as so at this point of time, it's difficult to see that this is actually going to happen. a journalist assembly circled with the latest from jerusalem to 970, as always, thank you. is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu is refusing to balance the pressure for a ceasefire and gossip. he says the hostages being held by him off must be released 1st families of some of the hostages. they have travelled to brussels to ask if you've all makers to help secure the release of their loved ones. a ton is just 12 years old. the last time he was seen alive was on the day how much the militants broke into his home and keep boots near us. on october 17th, he was driven into gaza on the back of a motorcycle. this is his aunt i and she has
