on the spot, this proffer and unexpected size of flies engaged on the business day that we knew his line from berlin, humanitarian group say a quarter of gauze us population started more than half a 1000000 people a report by the united nations and other organizations details the growing crisis, as the security council moves towards adopting a resolution to boost aid for the besieged territories, also coming up the tech republic in morning after a government open fire in the capital. prox people share their grief over the worst

mass shooting in the country's history. police say a student went on a rampage at the university, leaving 14 dead before turning the gun on himself and went to music. it goes to solely while the way of bringing soldiers, medics opened up to the w. after nearly 2 years of war from their country. and share what keeps them going day after day, the medical fairly welcome to show the risk of famine and gaza is increasing. by the day the grim assessment of a new un backed report that says almost the entire population is facing a hungry crisis. the warning comes with the un security council expected to vote later on a draft resolution that focuses on the urgency of allowing much needed aid to enter

gaza. the resolution that the us says it is now ready to support after days of delay in new york. and will start patient now, it's catastrophic levels, supplies of food, water and medicine cannot come soon enough for the people in gaza. signs of starvation and not hard to find in gaza. here in ross the crowds, joe sophie, what little food is available. the dispute is evident that a little less that this will brought on preferable level of humiliation with somebody we struggle so much the just to provide lunch. life has become so expensive. we do not eat, drink or sleep properly and nothing is available. one of the agent who is you much mold who are united nations bank reports these move in 90 percent of people in gaza facing crisis levels of hunger critical situation. and israel's

relentless bombardment. in response to the october stevens from us, tara attacks you in agencies say, gal sounds like using just team percent of the food deliveries they would usually receive. people struggle to find water medicine and fuel. what is happening in gaza is unprecedented. both in terms of its scale, but also how quickly it is happening. you know, in the world right now there are about 130000 people who are in catastrophic levels of hunger, meaning they have stars in gaza. more than half a 1000000. that is 4 times more. that is what makes this totally unprecedented. israel did briefly allow aid through its kareem shalom crossing into

a gauze of this week. but it is really it strikes that hit the palestinian side, forced you in stuff to stop it's pick ups the you can still award this, but we need to make sure that people have food. people have water, they have shelter, they have sanitation. and for all of those things to happen, we need water crossings open. so these commodities can commit to growing desperation for food also means that the limited supplies that do make it into guys that are often seized upon before being handed out in the u. n. c's, it's not just access to a that is vital, but also it's safe distribution across the strip. without it, they won the risk of semen and cancer is increasing every day. target charlotte is a spokesperson for the world health organization. one of the agencies involved in

putting together that report that we just heard of, and i asked them just how unprecedented the spread speed and scale of this hunger crisis are as well. what is really incredible is how fast we got into this situation that people do not have enough to be easy to just really. and in a matter of awful weeks, a because the gaza is, is, is, is funder sort of a siege where we're, what guess is, is nowhere enough of, uh, of uh, of what people. but the guys are normally, that would uh, would have so. so this is a kweisi seed situation that we are getting to the situation that said that the uh, i'd be glad to have you just hearing from our colleagues on the ground who are trying to bring medical supplies to hospitals and whatever say that people would come to trucks thinking it's there and hoping that there is

a fluid in those trucks. a dead police would say, what do we say some medical supplies, but everyone is desperate that even in the hospitals, i will call these with say, the own patients. we just ask, do you have, do you have some food for us? so to really good, how thoughts we got into this situation, a foot a foot food crisis. this was obviously a, bring me, uh, most set free youtube illnesses because the combination of mazda 3 sion and infectious diseases being suppressed easily. so yeah, it's hard for us as it's now ready to back draft resolution at the you end to help allow the delivery of more aid into gaza. in reality, is that going to make much of a difference on the ground? what we need is a ceasefire. ceasefire is the only solution because as long as people are being bones, there will be more casualties. there will be wanted people,

there will be that people wonder people who cannot guess, tradesman, because there's less and less of a hell of a health facility capacity that you guys have. just bringing medical supplies will not to make a hospitals function because this also does need need excess 1st of both safety to, to operate. they need also fuel food, read water, they need to, uh, they need a specialized stuff that is no longer there. so really ceasefire 1st and then continues as an honest, seem to access full humanitarian goods without exception. as long as the fighting continues, what options are left for guidance to stay healthy? there are very little options. can you imagine the 50000 pregnant women and gaza, more than 300000 people with chronic diseases. increase

a spread of respiratory viruses with water boom. a viruses office cubic infections simply because there's no water because of clean water because there is no hygiene, there is no sort of decent. so with every day we we, we see bombardment that we see the stage continuing a more lives that will be lost. 3 be the only solution is stop a. these are the suffering of people of god. but everything has to me please. it's terry kutrovitch at the w h. o. many thanks, a, a natural closer look at israel's campaign against homos, which is considered a tear group by the e. u. the us and many other countries. israel's response to the attacks committed by him us on october 7 has been described as one of the deadliest and most destructive and recent memory. and a new intelligence estimate finds, made bombs. israel is dropping on the territory are unguided,

that could under cut. israel's claim that it is doing all it can to minimize civilian casualties. dw security and defense reporter william blue cross has a look at the debt is rarely officials have repeatedly said they take care to avoid civilian deaths even in the best case scenario. however, that's a challenge to stick to because gaza is one of the most densely populated places in the world. before this latest fighting broke out. more than 2200000 people lived in a space of just 365 square kilometers. that's smaller than many mid sized cities. some military analysts had been skeptical of israel's targeting efforts, new information cast even more doubt about them. a recent us intelligence report estimates that israel has now dropped more than 29000 air to ground weapons on garza. and as much as 45 percent of them have been what's known as dumb bombs. these are weapons without gps or another sort of guiding system,

making it difficult to direct them against a specific target. israel's tactics have led us president joe biden astonish supporter of israel to call the bombing campaign. quote indiscriminate the nation's estimates. 90 percent of gauze as population has been displaced and 45 percent of all homes, too damaged to be lived in. again. satellite imagery suggest well over 100000 buildings, have by now been damaged or destroyed. and we can show you some of the satellite images from the us company, max, our technologies, the show neighborhoods before and after is rarely airstrikes. you can see from these images, just how much whole neighborhoods have been damaged before. after that the physical destruction gives us an idea of the human tall sconces. how mos run health ministry says more than 20000 people have been killed so far. many of them

civilians and about $8000.00 of them children. many more of course have been injured or if they secondary risks like hunger or disease conflict research or say there is little recent precedent for this level of destruction, an impact on non combatants. now, despite this level of destruction is will says, it will keep it up until the mice has been wiped out. but this to frank language, who is the military analyst and a former british military intelligence officer, he joined us earlier from oxford. and i asked him how the use of so called dumb bombs fits into these really militaries claim that it is only targeting from us and not all of cause. i think it's worth mentioning the western forces, the us samples, predominantly most of the british german, french than others. pretty much have given up the use of water cold, done bombs. we use only now precision guided weapons. however,

it's also was pointing out because we haven't conducted operations of the intensity is res, have even most of it doesn't really compact. and there are 2 constraints on his way to operations in this respect, the 1st is the availability of weapons. so we've had $29000.00 strikes, probably more bombs and not a steak, as would tend to show these bodies may be running out to precision kits to fit on the bones. and it may well be a question of availability, although that's now that may or may not be the case. we don't know, i guess we will. hopefully we'll never know. there's also another issue. and that's the delivery system. so it's not just the case and the clock can use precision guided weapons of talking to roy that post office yesterday who told me actually not every i cop displaced with them, nor at the pilot equipped trying to play to deliver these weapons. so there are all those constraints, however, the effect may be, uh, oh, the intention may be discriminant if it does seem to be indiscriminately affect,

not be intent, but no doctor tool is ready to nothing tend to injure oak hill more causes than necessary. unfortunately, it does seem that the rules of engage with have been not some of the east over the last couple of months. are there specific situations where the use of and guided munitions is legitimate? yes, you can deliver and guided munitions reasonably accurately, usually within a, a like sort of a era of about so to meet as precision guided weapons as 3 meet us or even less than subjects, depending on the missile you use. so if you're talking a military target and you can be fairly certain that collateral damage would be positive or and just be cold. but in other words, civilian casualties is proportionate to the effect you guys, you can use and guided weapons. but as i say west and f was the time not to do so. we often hear that northern bozza has been flattened. we just saw the pictures there that william was showing. some observers are comparing it to what in the past

has been called carpet bombing. would you agree to know if these ladies wanted to floss a god, so they could do so in a few days, quite easily. as could any mountain ask us, we sold the rest of the state to a level with not seeing, not really of gaza. it's not a good look though. there's no question about i just don't like to use terms like carpet, but because it does bring up trust and in humbug, i don't really have the hardest with the 2nd world war. and i think we could probably avoid that. now let's, let's talk about the, the, the, the strategy here. do you think what israel or what the idea is doing right now and gaza will lead them to their stated goal of eliminating come on well, that's an operational go. and i think in due course they will, if it's the right, the military capability of thomas. but in a sense that's not a strategy. anybody talking about the strategy here. i think we'd have to can see

that we are opposite destructive to we don't know what cause is going to look like afterwards. we don't know what political track is big looked at to a dock and that as we find out time and time and time again over the last 20 years is the important thing. there's no strategy, heather, just operational techniques. an objective on the, let's see, apparently let's see what happens and, and we'll look after it, when the time arrives. that's no way to conduct any military conflicts or student strategy as to the appropriate what operation to yes they are they so right and calm us, but of course, is the cost of proportion. and is that cost politically sustainable over the long term, particularly in, in, in israel's friends that's pops up with this conversation. but it's something that, uh, i think you considerations with us every day. mm hm. could there be any legal implications of using done bombs against such a densely populated area like the gaza strip as well as i say, i think there's no evidence that these ladies are deliberately targeting civilians

which would be in violation of the discrimination principle of international humanitarian law and by the way, i think it's worth mentioning all the time that there is a bright white line to be told between the deliberate mode of non competent civilian success on october, the 7th, and what's happening now. clearly, however, the thinkers, $20000.00, which is probably be well exceeded now, is unacceptable. if it were red lodge or data it small on it's having to run this effect. some of these rails overall political situation. but, but in terms of a legal response, look, the practical element of this is, so it'd be no legal because i think against these rightly uh, is there any operators in this respect uh the, the, the procedures aren't present. but that's for now, let's see what happens to the future as military analysts frank let which thank you . always great speaking to you. thank you to go to the tech republic. now we're

authorities are searching for a motive after the countries um, worst ever mass shooting. on thursday, a 24 year olds, gun man, shot dead, 14 people at charles university and the capital prague. police believe he then turned the gun on himself. already say there is no link to terrorism. country has declared saturday a day of national morning, the list of police in prague. sure. body cam footage. piecing together scenes from the countries, dudley shooting and decades. just 5 minutes in police say these officers arrive at the university, searching for the government on the lose. they climb up the the disadvantage at that point was that there was no sound of gunfire. so the officers had to actively search for the pep of tried to do, you know, in the information we got about the paper tray does movements was that he was supposed to be somewhere on the opposite floors as more officers deployed and got

closer they said the shooter committed suicide, bringing the situation under control after some 30 minutes of frantic corps. the next day of the site, the site of the massacre in progress. historic center. it's day of morning. the check prime minister is among hundreds who visited the make shift memorial to pay tribute. many are still in shock to jim, so i feel strange bad horrible because i am electrician fiesta faculty and we were experiencing very strongly what was going on and the faculty of it is hara, i cannot even speak. it is not a pleasant feeling to walk on the street and think about what happened to someone

who came to school. absolutely carefree. thinking about christmas coming in 2 days . i'd like to do that about me. so a lot of the incident has left many overwhelmed with a somber mood just before the holidays. and a quick look at some other stories we're following for you today. a democratic republic of the congo initial results of the presidential and legislative elections are expected later today. the elections were extended by a day following delays. the malfunctioning equipment opposition candidates are questioning the credibility of the results that are demanding a complete re run. the d. r c is africa, 2nd largest country and one of the world support institutions and cool families from the iceland, big town of grid of a car being allowed home to retrieve belongings. but authorities say it is still too dangerous for them to return full time. the tiny fishing town was evacuated after a nearby volcano erupted on mondays viewing lava and smoke more than 100 meters

lines. dw correspondent, i'm in east of sat down with you, cranium soldiers and medics on leave. and keith, to talk about what their service means for them and for their country. every was disappointed, but without success. where a lot. but in the edits around in the files, it gains a huge army against me, who is they have for chemical nuclear weapon. it's not disappointing. the, i'll tell you why we were, we were simply, we were defending a strategic points in of, of your trends defense. we have massive salary in placements that we're protecting and the enemy hasn't been able to get anyone yet. they would like to destroy those in placements because if they could, they could walk through the next. i could walk into as lobby on so i could walk

into kind of task and wasted for them and we felt that through massive casualties, we stood for them and, and they started everything at us and went on talking about everything. anything that explodes or bins, chemical to airplane bombs and missiles and that she knew the name we're heading of the lowest. so yes, sort of nice because you guys are so many by does he have to lose? so we have so little to stay at the beginning, so i'm was level was level the voice was led to the principal, the young miss dom saying that the kid and the soonest i knew the in the front. yes. that and most of the kids, the cartridge, sits in the chest and some lives the lowest to the heart of those of what you pull them. this is the heart of those records. you duck sound more budget the so even did they those in the that, that get the federal glitch in should if those are which in were your vin number will see the question is i think it's a so yeah. can we do a guiding,

not with your interest? i put them on them. i'll uh, it shouldn't be. so could i, you know, because as we're saying within the crash and we'll do tomorrow with one question of how many lives we kept, the span for this and so, and so what are the difficult to understand? okay. you are to clean the 2 green all east and 33 is much except to lose 300000 people is enough. or if you can compare, is there the reason that people lives? i don't know if i'm optimistic because and so only why the way to don't lucy mind hopefully the future assume castillo's here for a period you uh the liam. but uh if janet and also

include it was for the thought of 5th grade. you hi ya put a whole us of the, the for you knew before school was a virus law. yep. was that uh, the whole of the cabinet was cool. so we accomplish that was the one that gets not sto listed under a full platinum book and ottoman but it's watching him sit even those are nice and don't wasteful. his yes that, that came with a through that as a what the for my with you, i was look receive list on the miss stanley underwear and buddhist sitting of the wonderful. marsha, what's going on was he, i would say felicia, this is a jump is, was always satisfied. yeah. you, whose job it should be true. you will do it them up as the wound up. and of course, it's been nearly 2 years since rush us full scale invasion of ukraine. now it will

be a corresponding monday as building it has been there since the beginning. and i asked him if morales among ukrainians is still as strong as it was when the war started to look into the very beginning. everybody was under, so everybody felt the need to do something. people were fleeing, other people were helping. and there was this extra ordinary level of energy and activity every where of course, this cannot be sustained for years. so people have settled now either back into their lives or into their war time lives. many people have somebody at the front door are at the front um and have prepared for the long haul because everybody here understands. but this is not going to be over very quickly. these hopes have really been crushed, but this might be a quick win. which last year maybe some people still thought would be possible. um, but morale has not you know,

vanished in the sense that people on all ready to give up people to feel the need that uh the country must continue to defend itself. but of course questions are rising, how, how long there are lots of questions about how to do this and whether of course, the, the leadership has done the right things. so that's because writing has dropped, it's still a majority supporting him, but it's not the vast majority of almost 90 percent as in the beginning of the s d . w as much as building on and cave as well in spain. people are celebrating a centuries old holiday tradition today, across the country. people tuned in to follow the annual christmas lottery known as l gordo, or the fat one, considered one of the world's biggest and oldest lottery. this years lucky winners will share a pot worth 2600000000 euro madrid, schoolchildren sing out the winning numbers live on television.
