for the this is dw news line from balance. israel sites is increasing international pressure to stop. it's a tax on gaza. the communications cost, the asset to provide aid for give battle guidance has become increasingly desperate . but it's rather insist that military pressure is needed to bring the other hostages home. also coming off serve the votes and i problem entry and locally election president that is on the voltage costs to spell it. to us as profit is expected to stay in palm, many serbs writing long choose to cross the border from cost of volts to take part

in the next, the gulf is welcome to the program as well as pricing, increasing pressure up to hold the fighting in gaza and civilian casualties mounts, including those of 3 hostages mistakenly killed by israeli troops. francis foreign minister has called for an immediate ended durable truce in the cause of war, saying to many civilians are being killed of germany and the u. k. urge to sustainable cease 5. but stop short of saying it should be immediate. us officials have also expressed concern over the human, told of israel's campaign to destroy him off the latest victims of the war. they were killed in his really air strikes on rough uh, ink, as

a southern part to the area was supposed to be safe for people sling the fighting and goes a c t. but they say the reality destroyed their hopes, the equipment that they had, and every place they targeted everywhere. they've got a big target to evaluate children. they're all was scared and they wake up screaming because of the sound, the bombing, when there are big targets everywhere. and rough uh, but unfortunately, there is no safety. one such attack and rough uh, killed a fringe, 40 minutes to worker, and 9 out of the civilians. speaking alone side here is really counterpart francis stop diplomats said paris expected answers from israel, country and coal in the cold for real se, choose in gaza is i've also come here to reiterate the importance of a new humanitarian truce. and we need to return to a durable truce into a truce that will enable us to work towards

a humanitarian sci fi. now that he's real and say that he sees far would be a gift from us and says it will continue its military campaign. and i wonder if we will achieve all of our goals, eliminate him, us release the hostages and promise that god will not once again become a center of terror as these really are me, continues to pound guys a few minutes here in situation there is worsening by the day, but messages from israel suggests that the growing international pressure has been not enough to convince it to at least pause the fighting. and joining us now from jerusalem is all correspondent, a free man. there are reports of a meeting about a hostage deal between the most thoughts chief and the cook. tarry 5 minutes. so what are you hearing that as well,

we have heard some reports that the meeting has been positive and that's pretty much all we know so far. it's not unusual for this kind of negotiation. we remember the 1st round of negotiations which took a number of times to even, you know, a start in, in earnest, which culminated in the temporary cease fire and the hostage for prisoner exchange between israel and how much we know that people here in israel though, can't wait for this kind of negotiation to restart after the news of 3 hostages. having come very close to being rescued only to then be shot by the is really military mistakenly, according to an idea of the statement. it's certainly something that people here would welcome, but we've been through this before. there's usually very, very little concrete information about what is actually going on behind the scenes

with this kind of deal. now this accidental and tragic shooting of the 3 hostages that you mentioned has it pushed israel's government to change costs and returned to the negotiating table with a month. well, this really, government isn't a very tricky position right now. they want to appear steadfast. they want to appear strong, and they want to also show and the world which as was just mentioned is becoming increasingly and patient with this were especially because of the mounting civilian death toll. on the other hand, the government cannot ignore the anger on the streets. here in israel, the families of the remaining hostages, and it's here in israel, it's not, you know, this is not really something that only affects the families of the hostages defects the entire society. because of the intensity of the october 7, terre haute attacks. it's something that touches everyone in society. so there's a real, sort of public anger at what happened 2 days ago with the 3 hostages,

but also anger from before. and so to try and walk that delicate tight rope, if you will. the problem is mr. has on the one hand, reiterated what he said before this war is in exist central war for israel, and that it has to continue at any cost. and no matter what the pressure is, he's obviously, you know, sort of indirectly responding to the mounting, international pressure. and the fear that is real might really become even more isolated on the international stage. on the other hand, he has sort of hinted that the door to negotiation has not closed yet. so it really is a delicate balance. gerhard and one that the government is now trying to sort of navigate, but it's really, really difficult. the angle here really after 70 days is, is unlike anything we've seen before. you especially for responding to abraham the thank you very much. i, as a communications blackout continues in the gaza strip with more than

2000000 public standing especially cut off from the outside world. internet and telephone lines went down on the 1st day according to guns. and, and so it is in communications companies, a group say the outage is how to prove that. if it's in the territory, the world health organization has been able to visit gauze as badly damaged of she for hospital and this stuff, say the hospitals overwhelmed with hundreds of injured patients as a new cases arrive every minute shown, casey is an emergency medical teams coordinator with the w h o n t just visited the obviously the hospital and he has now more on what can be done for the injured patients. bill yesterday, when she bought hospital for the 1st time in about 3 weeks ever since the ceasefire ended. and we found a hospital that's completely overwhelmed. we saw patients coming in every 30 to 60 seconds on the cards on charlie's with sperry serious injuries. the hospital was

previously the largest referral hospital in gaza, was 750 beds and a very busy emergency board at the moment the hospital leadership has indicated that they have only 5 or 6 doctors, 5 or 6 nurses that about 70 volunteers. so what can be done for them at the moment? very little, but we hope to change that. so we delivered a critical emergency supply and strong. my kids yesterday will be delivering fuel for the hospital to run its generator in the coming days. and we'll be going back again with additional supplies and hopefully some additional human resources to help care for these many, many nations that are overwhelming. the very little capacity that remains at steeple. now, can you give us an idea of how many of the ends at coming in to all see for a mazda operatives and how many civilians and to distinguish between the it is impossible for us to say. i mean our, our concern is gearing for people with injuries and all of us. and what,

what i saw yesterday at cfo was an emergency department that was so full of people injured in the hill that there was hardly room to walk. so i saw the children, i saw women, i saw young and old men and women, pretty women. and i, i saw unfortunately, children receiving sutures and stitches without any out of static people welling out a game. so it doesn't matter who these people are. they are injured and as w h o r n is absent, our goal is to support the school to be able to care. some people to provide a treatment for their injuries and our listing is their sufferings. and that's what we've, that they need to do with the supplies. and then what are we able to do in the future missions to 12 people in the coming days and weeks. and you mentioned that also thought the is the most important hospital in, in gaza. is there any other place that sick or injured civilians can go?

there are several hospitals that are functioning right now and goes up, but not very many and quite a few are operating in the very minimal capacity in the southern part of gaza. in rough uh there are, there are several hospitals including field hospitals that have been set up for this emergency response in the middle area there. there is some a hospital functionality. and in the north, i'll see if uh, and sort of other hospitals operating very minimally. so i'll see if i previously had 20 operating getters. none of them are currently working. they're running dialysis machines 24 hours a day on a backup generator, but they, they're not able to come close to getting them out of that. but we're seeing in all of the hospitals in gaza is that there are $2300.00 even 400 percent of the normal capacities. and that they're running those numbers supporting that number of patients with 50 percent for 25 percent of their normal personnel. huge numbers of people here, i've been displaced, there's a lot of supplies, destruction, and some health disability is many of them are inaccessible due to fighting in the

area. so it's extremely challenging from a health service delivery perspective. and the optimal solution to this is peace is a ceasefire so that people can move, they can access hospital safely. so this the hot health workers can get to hospitals to provide care. um, but at the moment, services are available, but uh, extremely, extremely stretched, strong case of that, the emergency medical teams coordinator with the world health organization. thank you very much for your time. thank you. 6 voting is on the way in serbia. wherever a pro west of coalition is hoping to gain ground against the countries, russia friendly ruling party. the vote pits the serbian progressive party of president alexander food chits against the coalition folds during anti government protest demonstrates his brain to socrates for allowing a culture of violence inserted. the server site containing has been held in an atmosphere of intimidation and media by us favoring the populist governments.
