the, the, this is the w news. why? from berlin operation suspended at guns as big as hospital. the home us run the health authorities, as the chief and medical complex has one out of fuel doctors at other facilities hit by power cuts, inches. they will not stop treating the wounded despite working by torch lamp. as air of leaders gather for an emergency summit, there's little sign of any let up in the fighting. these real pushes deeper into casa and hits targets in southern lab or not the

i'm mike local, welcome. the health authority run by a mos in gaza says operations at its biggest hospital have been suspended because the facility has run out of fuel, a moss and the director of our she for hospital. se 13 people were killed by is really strikes at the sight. israel denies targeting hospitals, but says from us, command post are located under buildings in the area as a newborn in gaza. her grandmother says they fled out chief a hospital following and attacked, walking for hours to seek safety. she was born at 6 30 am and at night and we flat, she and her mother didn't rest. she didn't even get breast fat or journey. it's a journey of torment. tens of thousands have fled south and recent days as

is really operations intensify in the area around l. she's the hospital it's where according to and is really government spokesperson masters headquarters are located. israel says the militants have built tunnel networks under public facilities. so i must dash me to the mazda sizes heights impulse, but the, the moment if it hides in humanitarian facilities, it hides. it was because it does all these actions that i was trying against international law. and i'm sure we will continue to expose this to the world. i mean, people continue to expose the phase of homeless, isis, and hesitate of this organization. because that's, and you can the exploits, humanitarian festivities in the quarter to come in just a few kilometers away. doctors at another hospital are without power

calls for the protection of civilians and medical facilities in gaza are growing louder. the yes, i'm waiting for an operation and the machines are turned off as you see. there's no electricity. the money. i'm very thirsty but i'm not allowed to drink or eat into the operation is done. oxygen and medicines are dwindling, leaving gas as most vulnerable with nowhere else to turn. earlier i spoke to dw as correspondent in jerusalem. i abraham for more. so hospital officials have said that they run out of fuel and just to remind our viewers why, why fuel is so essential to gauze, that is because hospitals are now running on generators after the power grid is,

has no longer is no longer operational. and now as a result, we know that one or, or according to the us books, uh, people a spokesperson of the how much controls garza health ministry. one baby in an incubator has died out of 45 a baby's at the hospital. and we know, or we've been told that $39.00 additional babies are now fighting for their lives at the hospital because of lack of oxygen. and this is a scenario michael, that doctors in gaza. hospitals have been warning against the since the beginning of the war. and seeing that as soon as they run out of fuel, they will no longer be able to operate and no longer be able to keep their patients a live a. we have also been told that there have been strikes around as she thought hospital . and that the, the vicinity of the hospital has, has been struck multiple times in the past day or so. but these really say that

they don't believe that this is an idea strike, but rather a misfired him, us a rocket. it's very difficult to get an accurate image of what's going on on the ground around the hospital as a journalist that has been allowed international journalists, rather of course, guys and journalists have been working nonstop since the beginning of the war. international journalist that have been let in have been embedded with the idea of so we're not able to go there independently and, and get a picture for ourselves about what's going on there at the moment. not to mention that so many journalists who have died, bring us up to speed on the is really army strategy as the ground operation intensifies in gaza. of the we can expect more close combat and urban warfare between is really troops and how most fighters in addition to the air strikes that have already been going on for you know that,

that, that, that kind of warfare has been, is going into the 2nd month now and with that, we can expect an increase in casualties, and that is just the reality of a ground operations, whether for a troops or a civilians. but there's also hope michael, that now with is really troops on the ground. they may also be able to rescue some of the more than 200 is really hostages, who are taken by how most terrorist on october 7th. well, all eyes are ongoing. so of course there's also on risk in the west bank. what's happening there? so the seller violence against a palestinian communities in the west bank is by no means a new phenomenon. this here was actually set to be the highest of having the highest violence on record, the displacement of palestinian communities because of that settler violence are

also by no means a new phenomenon. but what we seen since october 7th is an acceleration of these attacks. and also an acceleration of displacement for palestinian bed when communities herders to be specific. so according to the you went about a 1000 of them from 15 hurting communities, have had, have been displaced due to subtler violence since the war began. i was in the west bank over the past 2 days speaking to some of these communities myself. and what they said is that now with so many is really is being in the reserves because of the war. they're now seeing settlers who they know by name and by face because they are surrounded by them. they're not seeing those settlers attack them. but the difference is they're in is really uniform, is really in military uniform. so it's much more difficult to really be able to, to tell of who is who is that you know, the id up and who is ideas, who, who is in is really soldier. that is also

a settler. and some of these communities that threat with sutler sometimes coming into their communities in the middle of the night, threatening them at one point to be have to come to these threats. and i've actually moved away from their communities. and so that makes the conversation around a 2 state solution quite difficult because the west bank, where a lot of the settlers are supposed to be the heart of any future palestinian states and with western leaders continuously calling for to speak to the solution including german foreign minister and the board bear box who is in the area today, you know, with these things happening on the ground that makes that conversation much more complicated and much more difficult and quite frankly, divorced from the reality on the ground that i've seen myself. or thanks to abraham in a jerusalem many thanks to you. mike martin is a former british army officer and senior fellow in the department of war studies at

kings college london. mike, the id f says hundreds of homeless fighters are beneath the chief of hospital in a command and control center. in layman's terms, that's an awfully harry situation. how do they route those fighters out while minimizing their own casualties? so come on and control sensor is a slightly strange ton for minutes in group because that's not how they operate. they open rates and cells, but let's say that there is a grouping of how much that i'm in, in very simple in blunt tons. these writing, these can use an asteroid, who missed all strikes, to take out. that is how much flights is, but of course then they have to put them of legality in weighing up the inevitable civilian casualties that will be caused by such a strike. they're all things that they could use um, obviously encouraging civilians to leave the sides and then they can use things like special forces, right? or even the cycled s p v. the little drive ends with the videos that can fly in and

then explode. just small explosives, the games, pin put targets. there are some those are some of the ways that they could use a to minimize civilian casualties in the tax such as that. it's also true perhaps that if a mouse is in fact hiding beneath those hospitals, it's likely that is really hostages. are there too, right. this again, you know, i'm not so sure about that. i think, you know, i think we can potentially take it at face value, that there are how much target in and around the hospital, but both sides want the hostages. this device is well, obviously once and supervised because of that house just besides thomas. because they all the bargaining chips. so i would think the actually, the hostages are probably dispersed all over the place. i'm particularly in very deep tunnels, whether unlikely to be killed in the buffalo because ultimately as

a special jewels to expose those hostages or what give him a currency to trade. so i'd be very surprised if they were putting them a minute to be targets. but if you with the id f and you believe that they may be your, your king's people, they're being kept in those tunnels that you might have to sort of minimize at the very least the force with which you use again. so most fighters potentially, um, although, you know, here's a to and that you guys really behavior. the behavior of the audience has changed over the last month. they have certainly been taking a lot more account solve, excuse the time, the collateral damage and civilian casualties at the beginning. i think it appears that we're taking a lot less concerned of that. but i'm not so sure i, i think, as i said both sides already trying to avoid those those hostages and they're

looking for more of a more of a straight sites. so let's talk just briefly a little bit more about the analysis alleged tactics of hiding beneath, you know, sensitive civilian side. what do we know about that? uh uh, so this is, this is pretty common um with militant groups all over the world. and it is to create the dilemma is in this case for the i d. s. and also because, you know, we, we never forget that house to really represent the population of all the, obviously they have some supports as long as that population. but actually, yeah, how much of a terrorist group that, that rules gauze not necessarily has the consensus ahold of the population. so in some cases they will see those palestinian civilian casualties as acceptable collateral damage in the same way. as you know is raised civilians have died in the

class is really what we have here is 2 sides that are fighting and civilians on both sides are losing out me. mike martin, senior fellow at kings college london, no doubt will continue to see more of you. many facts. thank you. eric leaders have gathered in saudi arabia for an emergency summit on gaza. palestinian president by buddha boss has said his people face a genocidal war in one international protection. error of nations are expected to issue a joint call for an end to israel's bombardment of gossip. the leaders of syria and iran, or among those, also attended on the i then would ask your opinion leaders have also been speaking about the conflict, frances present it to manual nicole has called for a ceasefire to ease the suffering of civilians in garza, the german chancellor olaf schultz urged israel to abide by the rules of war, but also said it's important. i must be defeated assessments, vendors press,

we have started, it's necessary for us to show solidarity with israel after the bar bar it commerce attacks that's we have for us to mutually ensure that is will of course sticks to the rules and the way in which it defends itself on the roof, and that is why we see it are definitely light satisfied. at the same time, we make sure that humanitarian aid can reach casa for that to happen, the con, and must be pauses that make it possible for the injured to leave gaza. that's sort by square. that's the guys know if i left some kind of like light side of the stuff, but at the same time it is also right that israel succeeds in defeating how much as they would otherwise only continue where they left off with the bar bar. a good tax on children and the elderly and israel younger scanned the tops and the conflict continues. will ended there for now. coming up our documentary series looks at the
