more on the situation surrounding causes, hospitals i spoke to is really military spokesman, lieutenant colonel richard hacked. i 1st asked him if the chief of hospital is under siege by the is really military that elsie 5 hospital is not under siege. and we have in circles and we are closing in on the from us inside got the city there. if a force is in the vicinity of the hospital, we are not targeting the hospital. we are trying to find ways to a how get the people out. we're trying to find ways to facilitate the assistance of the hospital. sadly, her mouse are high and their civilians. mm. well, a doctor mall were in a boost side of the head of surgery at the hospital who i spoke to yesterday. has today told the observer newspaper that people trying to evacuate the hospital or shot at and some killed doctors without borders. also reports that it staff or

witnessing people trying to leave the hospital being shot crow, shooting them. a for sure is not the idea. we have a, a names, a safe passage from the hospital in addition to the to humanitarian corridors done in size. and we are not targeting civilians. we are targeting, come us, anyone coming i, a with knowing changing of harming anyone will not be targeted by us. sadly, we've seen some us also targeting people trying to size and their own civilians, lieutenant colonel, you understand if i continued to push it back because there are lots of allegations from many corners, a surgeon from doctors without borders mohammed or by it says for patients actually within the hospital had been shot by sniper fire, was that the is really sniper fire? i'm not aware of these claims and i do not believe when i can tell you with

a knowing the deep the details. there is no way the i the sniper, which is a patient in the hospital. michael, this is no. hi, we operate. so what i'm curious about is the fact that over and over again, the israeli army says that a moss is using these hospital facilities for cover, essentially using the civilians there as human shields. what is difficult for people to understand that they can understand the great of suffering that israel had to endure back on october 7th. the reason why you've actually started this campaign. what they don't understand is how you can distinguish between homos fighters and regular innocent palestinians in a hospital or on the street. how can you say with assurance that israel is not firing at innocent civilians?

perhaps people live soldiers might mistake as harmless militants. well, micro, 1st of all, this is war and we have to also we, we don't forget what happened on the 7th of october. but i will tell you as a military, for the last month we be seeing an online and doing everything we can in every capability we have because we understand that we're not fighting the civilians. we are saying to the people, the civilians of the city of god to move. so you open these humanitarian corridors . you've done tactical pauses in neighborhoods to like people to move. sadly, and as we've closed in and we've come to us all a bottleneck with the hospitals and we're trying to solve it. we're trying to solve it, michael. it's very painful for me to see to and only of the soldier of the father. and this is the cynicism of come us. we will do everything we can when aware of the

situation, the dire situation in the hospital, they'll be more information coming a day. or are we trying to tend to make this happen as, as, as very painful. that's all i can say. this is not something that we enjoy doing. let me have time to stop. come up. let me move to another issue here. these really military is offering to evacuate babies from the hospital. how do you envision envisage then working? so we're, we're in contact or so administrative people are in contact with the hospital, another international bodies we're trying to find a solution. i think this thing will be, will unfold in the upcoming day or 2. again, we are not currently striking the hospital. there's no such a thing. even the with the allegations are coming i from some of the people that you're talking to. so we are weight of this as a dire and sensitive, and we're doing the best we can run pc a hospital and the knots or has hospital, for example, have been already evacuated. let me ask you this as

a follow up if i might, assuming that those kids could be transported safely. where could those babies then be taken to for safe medical treatment? all of gauze as hospitals are collapsing, as result of israeli military action? yeah, again, we're not targeting the hospitals, we are very aware of the situation in the hospitals and it will be a solution essentially or and it to be determined. okay, but that's an offer that's being made today. there is a very important news angle that we are seeing in, in present terms. what is the plan for those babies to be taken from point a to point b, and how can you ensure for their safety? is that an answer that you don't have at this point? i assess as an information i can share with you, michael. you don't have it or you can share it. i can share with you at this point i, there's going to happen. okay, well, what is so strategically important about al she for hospital and so they, we, we've added be expose this a few weeks ago. we see this as

a main hub of how much activity cynically they've been a also hiding within and also underneath the hospital. i mean, they can quote a apple, missouri said, you know, we, we don't care about our people above the grand eh, we care of a destroying israel. and the other thing that again, again, we cannot have come us have that capability to do this again as painful as it is and we're doing everything we can like, oh, what kind of kernel um, hospital administrator is have invited neutral parties to come in see for themselves that there are no, as they say militants in or under their hospital. what proof do you have that there are in fact militants there. i'd like to see that it also was a come to show i haven't seen any of these 3rd party entity say, or any of these reports. michael. we have our intelligent score and the we have information on what's going on in that hospital. why not allow independent monitors

into gaza into the hospital to assess the situation in the hospital? first of all, i think there's a international agencies are moving in and out of the hospital. i think i've been in the hospital and back in that's know, in my lean of a responsibility. i'm a military man and i all i can do is explain that the military actions that we are doing. i understand your national well, you well, you are a military man to you. i think you can in and understand and answer this question. let's say that you succeed in achieving the full evacuation of the option for hospital. what will these rarely military do then? are you going to destroy the hospital building, or we will not destroy the hospital building. we will go and see and search and the take care only on terrorist infrastructure. we do not destroy that's know our goal to destroy hospitals and the run cc hospitals. it, it,

we live the life is activated. also the not the hospital. we're only going after military targets. it may not be your goal, but that's what you're effectively doing piecemeal, right? now you must concede that, sir, we what we are? no, we're not doing that. if you, we have not strength or destroyed any hospital, michael. okay, that sounds lieutenant colonel washer unhappy. we'll go in in a very specific way. i'm trying a route i the terrorist infrastructure again, lieutenant colonel richard hacked is really military spokesman. thank you for your time. thank you for having me to you're watching dw news line from berlin. here's a reminder of our top story. thousands of people are trapped in guns as hospitals, as heavy fighting continues, between is really forces and her mom's doctors say supplies have run out and aid workers are warning that patients and staff will die without a pause in the fight. going to ended there up next,
