3:03 pm
. rebecca rivers in jerusalem. welcome, rebecca, let's start with that. i'll shape a hospital. is maybe troops a still there to yeah, we believe that to be the case so they all as we understand. so right. how they're still surrounded, much of the complex and that they are operating not constantly inside some of the buildings, but that they are making the move is in and out. it's a continue to search for evidence that they say prove that have also been using the hospital as a headquarters. if you just put in that report, they've shown evidence that they say proof of found a tunnel soft and that they both have found a who's cache of weapons. and of course it's very impossible impact for us to be able to independently verify that information. but they do continue to operate in the hospital complex. now. elsewhere in the street we've, we've seen last night, but leaflets were dropped on pop areas in the south. the south of course is where
3:04 pm
all the people from the north withheld to evacuate. and now people in the south and being told also to evacuate those areas exactly where they're supposed to go. isn't very clear yet. but it does seem that the israeli military might be moving into a new phase of this war, this ground operation. and is that going into target the south? because we know that the south has been on the aerial bombardment since the homeless since the beginning. and that even though people have been told to move there, that a still plenty of areas in the south and on the safe. what has also been decided today is these ready will cabinet have said that they'll allow to truckloads of fuel and on a daily basis to support the you ends, operation humanitarian operation to you in saying that i simply cannot continue any humanitarian operations with the, with no fuels, so that has that have that has passed and we should be saying that we've seen pictures of the 1st trucks entering today will hopefully be saying that on a daily basis. meanwhile,
3:05 pm
israel says the bodies of 2 of the hostages that were being held by him must have been, i've done to have been recovered. that's right. you who device a 65 year old woman who was kidnapped from the very comple. what's a, the a, a v is ready military saying that they have recovered her body. she was captured alive. they knew that her husband was killed on october, the 7th, but they have found her remains now and she has been identified as having been killed. and now the body that they were able to recover from around the hospital compound was that of a soldier. now, earlier this week we already had confirmation that the soldier was no longer alive . she had appeared in a most released video alive initially explaining that she was in a dire situation and that she was at risk of being killed in an extract. it then showed up that there was another video where a body was shown and
3:06 pm
a most claiming that she had in that in fact, died in an air strike. it's not clear, it's not possible to verify whether that's true either, but her remains or her body has been brought back to israel. and today a funeral was held for jose to this is really military saying that they have found information on the computer regarding some of the other hostages, but we don't have any more information on that at this stage. okay, thanks rebecca rebecca, which is in jerry. so we can talk now to our mom who's a senior policy and advocacy advisor for the middle east or the 8 organization must be cold. she joins us from the jordanian capital. a my welcome to the w. i'm 1st of all, let's start with what your people in gaza doing out the moment. uh we have around 70 stuffing guys. uh and especially unfortunately with the very few communications we are having with them. do our, all our team has been displaced. but with the a few of them who are able to deliver very limited to material assistance,
3:07 pm
we weren't able to procure around 1000 foot baskets to, to, to, to distribute, to the people in need. but unfortunately, as the markets are depleted, this is not a type of humanitarian response. that's what able to maintain as long as we don't have guaranteed safety and officer access to be able to deliver it at the scale of any of that is happening in casa. okay, so this is, this is, this is very real evidence of a lot of the, the difficulties of people that are suffering. not only can people not get through, but agencies are having difficulty operating and most of the humanitarian agencies and guys are going, i'd really facing beach studies just because of the lack of safety to be able to do that the, to deliver it that his boss use it as well as the lack of materials and that lack
3:08 pm
of access to the materials from within garza and also from outside goes off without assistance. he's fired and without providing and sticking up the access to be able to bring in all of the assistance needed to respond to the alarming scale of needs . and because a strip of a did, organizations will not be able to respond to a in an i do, i think which way that's why we believe that. and we called for this, dipping up and increasing the number of directs and 3 in together on a daily basis as well as opening other entry points through israel so that human organizations are able to deliver on data mondays and are able to cover the huge gaps of needs, let's talk about the fuel. nothing gets done without fuel. hospitals. cons that run cause comp carry food trucks con, carry anything that is ralph is today authorized to diesel time because
3:09 pm
a day to cross from egypt into the gaza strip. for humanitarian purposes. that doesn't sound like a lot yes, i agree that fuel is a vital commodity, especially during the humidity of crisis and goes that is actually in the, in the, in the middle of a penalty. and cuz that's true. no bakery is no what that could be farmed and hospitals are not able to directly. so patients without you, we know what that goes. that has been suffering from electricity cuts for very long hours, even before this conflict. so all the live saving services, including hospitals and health care facilities were running on fuel and era generators. now with the local fuel, hospitals are operating with and like maybe go stuff up, but i think people on torture like lights and phone lights. people are not able to pump water to get clean, what's it for drinking even for hygiene services. we are hearing and seeing
3:10 pm
a lot of reports about the, the dyad hygiene situation and the shelters with over. the older crowd did show there's with hundreds of thousands of people. diseases started to spread. people are going thursday, children are going thursday, i'm going company because of the very, very critical lack of fluid water and also electricity which is which are all related to the fuel in costa. ok. thank you for joining us. an ally, not so clearly what mama from the 8 organization nicely cool. thanks for having me to his present advisor typo on his touch down. and by letting him in heated discussion here about his condemnation of israel, is due to start formalised with a visit with that jim and president from about this time my, the full holding told sort of a chance my whole life show as it comes to a time when everyone's opinions about israel, a homicide conflict, money shop, contrast with those of the german government. the president says,
3:11 pm
has broken old contacts with these right in front of minister benjamin netanyahu because of what he calls the israel's mask because in the causal this thomas fellow as one of the dumpsters. but as will correspondence welcome thomas. the turkish presents as described. thomas's freedom fighters, and he's accused western countries like germany, of assisting israel and carrying out moscow despite based on gemini and waving support for as well. the meeting, still going ahead. why? you mentioned a sharp contrast between both leaders and that is absolutely evident in the current situation in the middle east, but not only in the current situation in the middle east. they know the topics as well, but to lead us to not necessarily c, i twice. so there's a lot of expectation as to what this meeting today here in building will actually bring on how the 2 leaders will actually perform. that has been a lot of criticism as to why the one was invited on in some cases also why he
3:12 pm
wasn't uninvited, off of invitation was made public. there's also been a lot of controversy surrounding the topics that are going to be discussed. the govern government. however, has stressed that it's important to talk to lead us to talk to governments that may see things different date that do not necessarily have the same goals when it comes to what is happening in the middle east. and it's important distress here that tuck young in particular of the turkish government is unimportant play when it comes to finding possible solutions to the war between israel and how much the turkish government. turkey is also an important country in a wide range of other macros. it's important also to reveal to stress that turkey is a t nato allies. so that basically explains why the german government feels that despite these shop contrasts, despite these differences, it is important to sit down at the table with mr. add on and discuss these issues. also to let these differences actually be made clear generally does have
3:13 pm
a significant attack is community is based visit, expect it to prompt the demonstrations one way or another is absolutely. that's the case that there's a very significant dis community and within the type this community, there are many that see mr. ad on favorably that have supported mr. ad on in previous election. so every time there's a visit by the turkish leader, this is something that is been obviously debated and discussed why the not only among the targets communities, but in general. here in germany, there are several protests planned on it to something that is being discussed widely, especially under the current context, especially because of these differences that we're also describing when it comes to events happening in the middle east. so it will be very interesting and also very important to see how the events unfold today. he are invalid. how's about thomas political correspondent, thomas barbara exposing dw news life from by then the reminder of our top
