the the, this is dw, use my from the, the in the un security council prepares for you folks on the finding in gallons of the us again know just as well to scale back it's offensive. as international pressure grows over, the number of civilians killed more than a 100 days in a powerful those quaking china, thousands of homes of damaged rescue team scramble to reach survivors in a cold and mountainous region. the morning to america from north korea's leda keeps around for more offensive actions against you, with the latest taste appealing young's most advanced nissan and an ice slattich
3:01 pm
volcano. around these might images of lava shooting up high ends with the weeks of science pick activity in from to mass evacuation. the i've been visible and woke up the un security council. the said to vote on a new resolution for guns or it goals for a temporary pause in fighting to allow much needed a to be delivered to civilians trapped in the was a how much the officials say at least 20 people have been killed him, but knew these ran the strikes on the southern city a prophet hours earlier that us once again know just as well as leaders to scale back their offensive is round signals. it will gradually transition to the next phase of the organ, thomas retaliation. for the october 7, tara tax, several countries in, in germany,
3:02 pm
classifying how much as the terrorist organizations correspond. atanya claim i in jerusalem told me more about the latest finding. well, it's for these pressing ahead with this chrome defensive. so there are reports coming in from strikes is strikes across the gulf strip in the north and in the south is run the search. it's also striking with it's naval forces in a certain areas as well as it's infantry to have been reported strikes on a house in a rough off of from palestinian sources. there was casualties there also reported a the is where the army has said they have targeted uh, also in the area and we are not sure of they have not commented on that specific other strike. uh a uh huh. most militant as well. so the offensive this also heavy fighting reported in the north and this is a year area and also in
3:03 pm
b to noon. and this comes, of course, old against the back to baltimore international pressure. a was a desk told among the palestinians, civil civilian population is rising and tired of what is this next phase of the water as well. so they're going to well, we don't know exactly when this phase or what this phase is exactly when display should be happening. we know this more international pressure also, especially uh from uh, the uh, united states. uh they have been, uh us officials have been saying in the past that would like is ro to move to another phase of the war that is less intense. that to protect, you know, take into consideration the protection of the civilian population. also to get in a more humanitarian age. we heard that again from the secretary of defense slide austin, who was here on monday,
3:04 pm
a having towards his counterparts is really counterparts. but they wouldn't give a timeline on that as well in deals of hearing from these radio officials. then the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, that they will continue this strategy of maximum of pressure and going ahead with the military strategy. and of course, all this happens against a backdrop of so many people being displaced over 80 percent of the goals of population according to the united nations that have been displaced or made homeless. and of course, the distribution of age is also very being made very difficult because of the heavy fighting going on in the gaza strip. don't use taking a 2nd night in jerusalem. how much fun, health ministry, and goals us as of a $19000.00 people have been killed in the war with israel, including fighters, while independently verifying the figure is difficult. the when's the civilian casualties are unprecedented. a warning next report contains distressing images.
3:05 pm
counting the dead and already gruesome job made almost impossible, but on the ground fighting berlin plus bombardment just as rarely forces and the ship tales of war. the defensive. i'll put the targets in children. as you can see, that's what happened to me south from f sixteens hitting little children's, all part of the value of the human total of the fighting itself and conveyed by witnesses and by of, of what doctors repeated blackouts. mean social media is sometimes the only way to give updates is no longer able to provide surgeries at all the hospital the hospital this now effectively a 1st aid station, hundreds of wounded now as hospital with no access to surgery. they will die from
3:06 pm
de woods and official total of casualties is being kept by the palestinian health ministry and gaza. it's the latest update, said israel defensive has killed more than $19000.00 palestinians. the have mass run, ministry doesn't differentiate between civilians and competence. bought has said that most of those killed women and children secretary general for this in the united nations has backed this claim question. despite the united verification challenges, what he's cleared is that we have ads in a few weeks, thousands of children killed. so these is what mets us, we are witnessing a killing of civilians. that is and that allows an end president. it's
3:07 pm
any conflict since i am sick. that is yellow. not yet included in the official death told of, of thousands of people who are missing that would off and see its dead under the rubble when, if they are recovered, officials and gonzo will have to figure out where to bury them. salmon trays are either full or inaccessible because of fighting, and on the number of bodies has been buried and mass graves. a dike is lead investigator, where there was a nonprofit organization to track civilian casualties and conflicts. i asked him if he can confirm the death toll reported by gosset's health officials. thank you. first of all for having us know we, we con, confirm that number explicitly, but i think it's worth putting in context of. there are 2 major trends. one is, as you said earlier, uh, human rights workers, journalists, etc, on able to operate in gaza and the context. and then international drivers have
3:08 pm
been prevented from entering by the gyptian authority, somebody's burial thirties. so you have this huge gap of information, and then you have a dispute and unprecedented dispute of the numbers. and as you say that i, you know, can, you can find these numbers easily by difficult thing to do. but the not, not fluidly what we can say is so we as an organization are tracking old allegations simply at home. but every incident goes through a $5.00 and $6.00 stage review process. it takes a long time we've published or more than a 100 instance already of more than 1600 that we have monitored, meaning that been doesn't need to be assessed and reviewed. so it's a long slow process. what we can say is the, in those 100 that we have published and they've been through the full process. so trust checking them with the details that were released by the ministry of health kind of thing you mentioned helps released the names of 7000 victims. we cross
3:09 pm
checking them with those and rudely with finding that the names that we are in, we're finding in a completely different methodology, are the same as those released by the post and image and how many of them are the same. so the supposed to be with finding the, those methodology and those figures been released by them. i should help with finding them broadly consistent. but we can't say that the 19000 which will just take us a long, long time to do that process in general. what about the proportion of civilians in, in those numbers? so yeah, i think again it is, it will take a long time to make full assessment. but i think what we can say is so was as an organization, has been tracking civilian home in complex for decade. so in a rock syria. yeah, i'm in libya and ukraine and the last year. and one thing that we can say just a 2nd here is that we're seeing formal incidents of entire families killed in that home together. then we have seen in other context,
3:10 pm
uh that that doesn't necessarily, you know, we took the above the food, it would take a long time to have full assessments. these really a ministry says that it is such as the 22 civilians have been killed for every minutes. and it's very hard to objectively just, i have no idea of what method over to the police that a conclusion um, but what we can say is that the number of cases of entire families killed in is unlike anything we haven't monitored in other conflicts. and therefore that indicates that you know, there's, there's very large civilian home is your body of, for example, that was an attack on the refuge account where we individually monitored more than a 100 specific civilians that were killed in the instance. again, with the attack on a dash which is a, a residential building in northern gauze or we monitor, we tracked more than a 100 civilian, killed and not interested in as well. so you'll see
3:11 pm
a huge incidence in which many, many civilians are killed in $11.00. okay. do your assessments go as far as pin pointing or holding accountability to you know, which side is, is to blame and all of this? i mean, so if they do, they do to a certain extent, which obviously you know, that absolute certainty requires people on the ground looking at munitions maintenance. and that's true. wherever you are in the well, i'm whatever comfort you're looking at. i think in the context of something that is a barrier or something like that, there is no ability, nobody else in the mid, in these conflicts has the ability to destroy building a 12 story building. and one guy, there's just, i mean, did these rarely have been accepted, they can carried out by layer and they accept to the car it out of dash. so like there's no, um, it's not an instance that it a they,
3:12 pm
they accept it. i think in general it's very different and we'll take a long time to be certain on every incident is as to whether it is a so you know, whether it could have been posted in rocket fi. we, we in 2021, monitored for somebody in home from in the bathroom and we found that around the east 151 civilians were killed by israeli strikes. i know that dean were killed by posting and missed by so that you know, that gives you some indication. okay. uh, but i think it will take a long time to be assessing on that. but i think there's, there's certainly an overwhelming power in the sense of military capacity in impact is these ready military choices to talk to a head of the investigations and accountability unit at ad was. thank you. authorities in china. the same old and 120 people have been killed at hundreds more injured and i noticed quite the 6.2 magnitude quake struck me the northwestern
3:13 pm
cities of shooting and non show when the conditions are complicating efforts, with temperatures dropping below, minus 10 degrees celsius the people enjoying a late evening meal in china is most west then the . this is the scale of the damage close by that. so that's quaking. china is guns who in senior high provinces to thousands of homes in time neighborhoods reduced to rubble is owned by the 6.2. my can choose from the start to late on monday night school take media said water and electricity infrastructure. what was the dominance of china as president she can, king has audited in or out the search and rescue efforts in the mounts in this area to find people still trapped under rubble. and i see temperatures in shanghai province have recently blanketed the region in snow. and temperatures when the quake hits on monday night to a well below freezing punishing conditions. now making complicated rescue efforts
3:14 pm
even more difficult done, so wincing high. i used to ask quakes on average. nearly 30 trim is the magnitude for more hits the region each year due to that also among the least developed regions in china, against who has the lowest g d. p per capita of any province in the country. or thirty's, of want of more of to shop. at least 2 with magnitude 4 or higher might have been recorded. same estimate in quake to 30, it didn't go up within the so, so what type of constraints try to find that report and updated us on the scale of destruction as well as the sore. and therefore, the level of destruction has been pretty devastating. inside neighborhoods leveled at least strewn with rubble. it was the reports of lun slides close by the soft quake rescue workers of helping create made shift tents and shelters. now for those of an impact is thousands of people that have been how does that, how it was damaged by it, by this quake. now, we now know that this is china is the list of quite a can over decade,
3:15 pm
much about death, toll about high desktop. really thing, not because this are quite safe place, of course, at nighttime, right on midnight. so lots of people in the home sleeping, unable to, to leave high apartments, a tool, a palm, and blogs, and the fed for safety. we understand electricity is there, so it's in most places that lost it now, but that impacts on infrastructure. whether that's electricity, roads um has been hampering really fast as we understand now. 3 is leader kim jong and is threatening the waste with more offensive action a day off. the testing is the most powerful ballistic miss on stake, media release, pictures of the me salvage for potentially reach anywhere in north america and also quoted the north korean vida as claiming the test and to see a warning to the u. s. washington say is a new for your time 5 count yang would mean the end of the came regime south korea's president has bought the north against further publication as so builds close to security ties with the west. washington has bound to back the south with
3:16 pm
its full range of capabilities, including new fear. problems on the north korean regime will come to realize such publications. will that do you bring great to pay for me to with this i will put all were push it on and was it dedicated to the question we a john jordan with a recent meeting of the south korea us nuclear conservative group held in washington. the establishment of a comprehensive extend, it determines regime between the us and south korea is eminence. it signifies the substances realization of a very bus nuclear base deadlines, which means let's begin your engine. she's a journalist at iran hughes and joins us from. so what's brought on this rape or number of no screen weapons tests this year? well, the north korea hasn't been happy with what south korea has been doing, but it's key allies. let's take a look at the timeline real quickly just after so create
3:17 pm
a us engaged in the 2nd section of the nuclear consultation group in washington on friday, north korea for the short range missile, which was followed by an intercontinental ballistic missile. and to show that tony, i wasn't happy with what i've discussed, read this bilateral meeting between school in washington. there's out, create a us, discuss ways to strengthen deterrence and respond to any type of north created with conventional and even nuclear weapons. and we're curious as breton to preemptively quotes counteract against its so called energies provocations. regina, we are key jones at the latest launch shows what option come down would take when washington makes a wrong decision and came out at a loss for a practical demonstration of the progress and reliability of the capabilities. the jerky has when it comes to our forces and nuclear deterrence, we heard the south korean presidents warning to killing yang. how else has so responded? right, this is the 5th icbm lost by north korea this year. so has decided to pursue
3:18 pm
a stronger turn strategy, meaning that the name lee activated a warning information assurance system for north korean missiles with it's key allies like the us in japan. the defense minister on tuesday in pledge to establish the system to detect and evaluate missiles, launched in real time 247. and it's the 1st time to do so given that information used to be sure, temporarily, and partially during only general training. now, sol, washington and tokyo have also proved a multi or exercise plan, which means for quite $24.00 will see sold, regular relies on those free drills with its allies. now, all of these measures were brought up at the cap, dated somebody in august, and at a high level, somebody tell, in november last year. but we're now seeing the 3 countries really bulls or cooperation now have more create a launch, the highest number i, c, d s for a single year. you also mentioned this a sending signals how much of it is a threat to the us. i mean, we'll have to see, but most of the experts i spoke to hearing 3. it's
3:19 pm
a refer to how this seems to be more of a showcase rather than an actual direct right to north america. experts probably pointed to how the reduced origin is trying to save missiles are able to target the us to strategic gases in pusan. for instance, where the us attack us every us as missouri dropped out a day prior to when your free shot a short range missile on sunday. as for the solid fuel, why is it being fired? monday morning? it's worth noting homework real estate. you use the word fire instead of test fired, which has that, and we're free. it is free to plot how it's icbm. technology has develop. so the region singly wants to indicate that it doesn't need to test such missiles instead of it's ready to fire and produce more. meanwhile, so priest went cheese, the staff said that the ice did region altitude of at least 6000 kilometers. and this, or pass the maximum of altitude a 3000 reached by the ice if you have tested back in april. so it does seem to be development, but experts are raising the possibility that time you might have reduced the we're
3:20 pm
the warhead screwed by the idea simply for the sake of demonstrating to us that it's new. your technology has the upper have in the korean peninsula of some very interesting analysis there from generalization and sol. thank you. thank so much. let's take a look now at some of the other headlines making use. as the us has announced an allied task force in response to attacks by hoody rebels on shipping in the red sea, the force will conduct the joint patrols to protect ships from drone and we solve attacks the human base to the level group as targeted vessels. it says a link to israel, texas governor gap, it has approved a new bill that will give police sweeping pallet and so arrest or migrant legally crossed into the way it's available. so empower is charges to order people to leave america. the legislation is part of a drive to type in immigration though and in were. hundreds of people have been stranded in northeast and australia after
3:21 pm
a tropical cycling for good severe flooding. roads have been washed away, leaving many trapped in their homes, rescued teams and trying to land with them to safety. the interrupt in volcano in iceland is spewing love a modem one. the visa is into the authorities, were prepared for the adoption of the town of queencreek following weeks of seismic activity, homes of businesses and nice signs, most populous region outside the capital of being evacuated. but the scale of the other option is taken scientists by surprise. clues of smoke and lava on the rig, john has been in stella in iceland following weeks of intense earthquakes. doris and the nearby town of glenoak looked on having just seen lava emerged from the grounds. even if it's it, in a particular confidence such as this is just fascinating and see, just nature inaction. i just,
3:22 pm
it's just like some different movie prospectively for some law enforcement in the area is making sure people in this down stay safe. now there's our option here and they have great that we and we have to at the tone and the area. and now we're just securing the area in closing every roads to the area. and that's just in process. no. but then we're just trying to manage the situation here. firestone coast guard is on high alert between these, this footage as it surveyed defendants hello to determine the exact size of the option i send is no stranger the volcanoes. 6 currency has 33 as divert options. that's the highest number in europe install from these. this seems to be a few 100 cubic meters per 2nd. net. this is quite
3:23 pm
a bit more than what we've seen on the engine and live until now. when you're quite small, but there in the beginning with the scientists say it is still unclear how long this one will go on for the out of need. young son is a news reporter for the guy slattich national broadcasting service. i asked him to tell us more about the situation. yeah, it started with a great force just after 10 o'clock last night. it's is powered, was grateful just throughout the 1st few hours, but it's quickly and diminished. but it's a, it's a, it's a lot's reduction. it's, it's a lot to, to give us when we expected level. so, like you mentioned before is, is, is uh many times higher than your options, but that's, we're typing the reason yes. on the because peninsula. and it was a few 100 cubic meters. the flow per 2nd less live, it's probably around,
3:24 pm
around the $5050.00 now. but the of the situation or the location of your trucks and this is, is considered optimal now. and if it, if it keeps going like like these things, fixed should be fine, but there is them, love are flowing towards the kind of product. so there's been, there's been risk. yeah, we're looking at uh, those pictures that footage amazing footage of the lava flows. what sort of freight did they post for the surrounding communities and also the blue lagoon, which a lot of tourists may not as yeah, we bought this as a foster option in the last 3 years. so we are, we have come quite used to this. but the russian is coming down now you could say that so the risk is decreasing. but when you have interruption, that the so cost to such importance infrastructure as those. there is of course, always venture. but uh, i think we what a few people were in the area of the reps and stuff that's police had to evacuate
3:25 pm
the expense of it in november after the strong seas, mcgrath they would do that. damage to houses and drugs in griffin. but the people that have been out of their homes since then, but they were hoping they would get back before christmas. but uh, but that's, that's not going to happen. always. what sort of defenses are in place? i believe the prime minister related to reason to be constructed defense is to help the situation. yeah. the fastest, lots, lots a month. it was a few weeks ago and they've been, they've been investigating of time and weather since then, guessing it's ready. and it seems like the, the was at least we cover the, the power plant that the blue link on for now. and it's in the, the russian is, has to slow down quite a bit. we hope it keeps on slowing down. and we will have a,
3:26 pm
like another so called source direction like we've had before. and then, then all the infrastructure should be fine. so we, so we hope is it keeps on the increasing leslie, what about the ash and smoke? what sort of thing for the zip codes? um we have we have uh as you know, uh, interruptions before and 20 tons of that hosted hosted flights all over your um that's not gonna happen now. so they didn't affect the i think the non or almost no effects on, on, on flights. the ones from iceland and there's direction we'll have to if, if i flights at the stair and let's be out of the young some day for us in reykjavik. thank you very much for talking to the deputy news. the reminder of our top story to you in security council is set to vote on
