or the, this is the w news, live from berlin. after 3 months of war, people and guns are on the brake of starvation. the w h o saying that the situation is too dangerous for not a to reach civilians. conditions are increasingly desperate for nearly 2000000 people. displaced by the complaint. also coming up to us secretary of state as in the occupied west bank, the visit part of his peace mission across the middle league. peace urging leaders to plan for goss this post for future and ecuador sinking into crisis. the

president says that his country is at war with drug gang, every wave of deadly violence, the storming of a t v station. and the kid that thing up police officers the i'm sarah kelly, welcome to the program. we begin in the gaza strip, where the world health organization says not enough. aid is reaching civilians, intensified fighting and northern and central. gaza has also halted several deliveries of medical supplies and fuel to hospitals is really troops are trying to root out mos militants who carried out deadly terror attacks. and israel, 3 months ago. grabbing all the can from a truck, west of kansas city bags of flour, boxes of canned food throughout the territory, gods in space, mass, hunger,

and disease. the un says one and 4 are starving of the majority of guys, this population has been displaced at least once. since the start of the war most depend on cross border aid for survival. those displaced say they are living in absolute desperation. msm and we have lost hope. we'd be listening to the news for $98.00 days hoping that the war will end. but there is no hope. all we see is a difficult situation. we're in, we have no water or electricity, but since water was scarce, we can only shar once a month. so it's taking a total in our mental health. and there are diseases spreading everywhere. pressure to allow more 8 and to gaza is mounting on israel. the opening of a crossing at the israel egypt border has not significantly increase the rate of deliveries. a trucks are often delayed waiting for security checks. but

israel's military says it is now increased its capacity for screening. we are ready and willing to facilitate as much humanitarian aid as the world will give, especially essentially like food medicine and shelter. we do security checks any minute, terry and a trucks for weapons before they enter goes. we have increased our screening capacity considerably. that even when a gets through distribution is another problem in the absence of security guarantees and intensified offensive around hospitals in northern gaza. vital medical supplies can get to people who need it most. it means that hospitals don't have to. it means that patients don't have food, it means that i'm to go and supplies the care for the patients. you an agency say

humanitarian corey doors for aid are needed now to save lives. to i spoke earlier with christian named maya from the world health organization, asking him whether his staff we're noticing a difference on the ground after the is really arm. you said it would facilitate more 8 into gaza. so they're willing, this is of course great. but no, we have not seen any changes on the ground. the words have yet to um, translate into action on the ground. the problem for us is the any permission. and so any aid coming in or you back who is going out is way to talk. it cannot be plan, call me while i sit for days waiting to get in convoys sit inside guns and one thing to go to the north and waiting for permission is also everything was planned as, according to the instructions, given the talk situation. that's the problem with dealing with and of course in a, in a short amount of time and

a short window that can never be enough to help lots of people even if the roads are then clear off a tax cleo bombs and leo decrease in order to bring material it is offered up and so goes on what is most urgently needed at the moment. that's a tricky question. nearly every thing, i mean, 1st of all, it right now it's really food and wants it for the people. people, patients, including the patients on the operating tables and then the right off the surgery, a begging for water into a fluid. it needs fuel, of course, to uh, to run the hospitals, to run the generates has to run ambulances. and then it needs a lot of medical equipment from simple bandages and wound dressings to anesthetics . so in order to have um, concessions to be done. and on the anesthesia and not without to anything in between. so what this is there, it's there and that's the import. the it is ready. it's outside. all the when agencies are ready to do the convoys as your picture. so

a miles long are we waiting outside it needs to get in that procedure needs to be speeded up. um and then of course the inside goes at the distribution is crucial. meanwhile, on a visit to the west bank, the us is tough. diplomat has reaffirmed washington support for a palestinian state secretary of state. anthony lincoln said that he had productive talks with palestinian president monkwood abbas about reforming his government. the u. s. hopes the palestinian authority could govern. garza after israel's war with moss as part of steps towards the statehood, which he said would be needed to further normalization ties between israel and arab states. abbas said that gaza was an integral part of palestinian territory and called for an international peace conference. earlier i spoke with dw, correspond atanya kramer in jerusalem. i asked her what anthony blinking wanted to achieve their while your secretary of state entered the bank and has said he wanted

to talk to the palestinian leadership in particular for the student president bus about a post scenario. post 4 scenarios, full gauze of what the role of the published do you know? so it could be also talked about that she wants to talk about performing the palestinian authority for it to be able to play a role in such a scenario as no. you have to understand the posting authority has only limits that a governing a control and some parts of the occupied by spring. they haven't been in a garza since uh how much ceased power the in 2007. but in general, of the pub, assume this already has lost a lot of popularity also among ordinary palestinians. that has to be no general election since 2006. now for the palestinians, that in the day of course want to to hear from the americans. what they are doing to end the war in gods, but also what are they doing to protect the civilians,

the civilian population, not just in gaza, but also in the occupied a west bank. where there has been an increase in such a violence and be heard until the blinking of talking about that. in his remarks and tuesday evening, he said you contend the binding spike's stream is rarely set lists, but also displacement by communities in the occupied westbank. and at demolitions and another very important issue for palestinians is that that the americans with pressure, the is ready government to release a tax revenues, their withholding. they needed a for functioning policy and no storage. and that's also in the interest of the, a secretary of state subs in for israel that uh, the posting authority is not for the beacon but strength and to play its role. we can also calling on israel to be a partner to palestinian leaders. but you mean you've highlighted it there in the

face of the doesn't accomplish now with some us can to 2 sides find common ground. i think there's not much common ground right now because also we've been hearing repeatedly from the is very government from officials said that they don't see a role for the palestinian authority in gaza. or that has been very vague when it comes to plans. how this will look like they're talking about posting an entities governing dollars, but they're not a very clear on who they mean by that. also, that is very much on the u. s. agenda. and the blinking has a tool to load about the prospect, or that they should be opposed to gratian of a palestinian state on the horizon. he has also how talks in the region with other leaders are just going to saudi arabia. then he says the is a framework in place, but it needs to have this policy and stage on the horizon that is what's needed

to to achieve security and peace in the region. and that this needs uh, you know, also the support of isabel didn't have to make some hard choices there. tanya kramer and jerusalem, thank you. and here are some other stories making news around the world. the german foreign minister annalee in a fair boxes and 11 on where she has been holding talks with the countries, caretaker, prime minister and achievement. katia, they discussed the tensions between israel and the she. i 11 nice house below militia. there. bach will also visit german soldiers stationed on a forget, in the favorite harbor during the trip. a rushing opposition leader alexia volley has appeared in the video for the 1st time since his secret transferred to an arctic prison to remotely attend a court. hearing the kremlin critic was moved in december and to serving
