really sure welcome to the program. as muslims around the world celebrate the end of the holy fasting month of ramadan palestinians in gauze, our marketing age under the shadow of war. the monster on health ministry says at least 14 people were killed and dozens injured by is really strikes on the eve of the holiday. eat is usually characterized by joy of celebrations. but this here, most of gauze is population or displaced from their homes and facing critical shortages of food and other essential supplies. so markets were selling since the food and clothing ahead of eat. much of it was that highly inflated prices on affordable to people there. in an interview with the spanish language tv network, only the ceiling us president and joe biden says he doesn't agree with the approach taken by is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu and gaza calling for an

immediate halt in finding to allow for significant food supplies to get in a live call it for his for the israel is to just call for a ceasefire. allow for the next $68.00 weeks total access to all food and medicine going into the country. i've spoken with sam removed from the studies to the jordanians today. and champions, they're prepared to move in, are prepared to move this food in and i think present vendor there's no excuse to not provide for the medical and the, and the, and the food needs of those people they should be done now. so yes, presidential bind speaking to our colleagues over at the university on yesterday. well, a short while ago i spoke to he about tv. she's the country director of care international for guys that in the west bank. and i started by wishing her eat mubarek,

and asked her how gardens are able to celebrate the feast of breaking the fast. and this extraordinary year, i was wondering the call and thank you so much and i do work for all those who sort of break down the words and especially for the people in gaza. and unfortunately, we always would come by with after a very harsh time, off of, or hush worship. that is a very strong and a difficult on, on, on us as, as human beings. but now an engagement, unfortunately, when we started the day with, with special prayers, with good, specifically celebrating with new coats with base of sweets, it is not happening and goes up the images that you have shown, as you mentioned in the report will do. there are some a commodities related to a to fit to celebrate that in the market, but they are 10 times the price is or $15.00 times the prices and all of that in the cell, not even in the north. and unfortunately,

many of the people that we talk to, i don't know anyone and gaza who did not lose someone of the comedy. and although it from time for certain patients, they just wake up and they tried to do the prayer. but then immediately i just spoke to my colleagues immediately go to secure food water just like the other days and even with more stars fitting and remembering the those that they lost. unfortunately, he about to what extent have this year celebrations in the palestinian territories taken on a different meaning since the war broke out? this is listening to a different meaning. disney colored sent simmons october for us. so here in westbank and come through the we are in safe and vitamin compared to gaza. but none of us even google and it came in a different way. our pre is a would food on the, to even wasting food, for instance, everything or simple practices on daily basis the district. this includes

unfortunately, the prayers for right own of our prayers go for the people in gaza wishing for peace in the coming days, hoping that there would not be an invasion that invasion and of hoping for 8 to enter and paying for them to at least be able to be steve over the next period and of course being for us for staying in the for which ceasefire. so its not like the same you fee this you feed all of that being the people looking at the images of mothers who lost their kids. do union with conseula. there's so many days to send a birth date is something that is so emotional support or we just heard us presidential by and they're saying there is no excuse for israel. oh, very, very emotional day and time for you. i'm. i'm very sorry for that message from you as president 5, and i hope you, you had a chance to listen to it. he said there was no excuse for israel to not let 8 into

cause a how important our message just like this one for improving the situation on the ground over the last 6 months. and now we are entering the 7 the month we are calling for for the age sustained agency to gaza. the needs are massive and every day that passes and go on, we see the more deeds that are growing, including for instance, access to fluid access to feud access to clothes. basically it's in the daily life of government, people and we have you even do you and saying that you in a specialist saying that gods that needs to be flooded by 8. so this, this happens, this would allow only for saving the lives that are at the, at the age of losing, we are the, we are at the age of losing them. if this happens, this will allow us, if sustained with, with an evening environment to reach out to distribute the aid in a more systemic organized way. that would mean a lot. and what it looks like, he said the people dives over the next days and we hope it won't happen as he but

tv care his country director and run my love. thank you so much. thank you. we can now take a look at some other stories making news around the world today. japan's prime minister for me. ok, she is in washington to hold talks with us presidential bite and they're expected to address concerns about provocative chinese military action in the pacific and discuss plans to upgrade the us military presence in japan. south koreans are electing a new parliament today. the result will determine whether president, john, so you'll can push forward with his socially conservative agenda. opinion polls ahead of the vote, predicted a close outcome in hong kong, a fire in a 16 story building has killed at least 5 people and left dozens more injured. firefighters extinguish the ways that local media said broke out in a gym on the 1st floor. an investigation into the cause of the fire is underway.

flooding has prompted the evacuation of more than 90000 people in context on the rising waters have resulted from melting snow and the year old mountains. officials say they plan to evacuate thousands more as flood water rises over the next 3 days . big parts of russia, the border of the euro river have also been effected. us and rescue teams in italy are searching for survivors after an underground explosion at a hydro electric plant. at least 3 people were killed and several other seriously injured. that happened while maintenance work with was underway at the plans south of bull on you to the warren ukraine. malware keeps, says russia launched 17 attack drones and several missiles targeting the south of the country over night. officials say air defenses we're able to down for team of

the drones and to guided air myself. but russia is not the only party in this conflict heavily relying on drone warfare. ukraine is increasingly using domestically produced drones to strike back at russia deep inside its own borders. on tuesday, ukrainian drones hit the central toddress done region around 1100 kilometers from the countries share border in one of the deepest ukrainian attacks. since russia launched its full scale invasion 2 years ago now, keith said the attack hit a major oil refinery and a drone assembly factory. but how serious threats are the russia, the ukrainian drone attacks to russia double use keep corresponding economy as more like aircraft without a pilot. but stuff with explosives, it's, there were some joint factoring test on more than a 1000 kilometers from ukraine. and it's not a one of course, and the dog resign. some are nowhere in the european part of russia say from

ukrainian strikes. russia for its part has always been able to hit anywhere. and ukraine with expensive cold war era. ballistic missiles were built to strike the us in the sense that ukraine could do something similar and hit russia fall from the front lines using you. meanwhile, we don't have our own crews besides on ballistic missiles. what we do have is west and supplied storm shadow or scouts in the south. for a tech comes in small quantities we was, but we are only allowed to use them against russian forces in your crane lashing, methodical way you pretty ukraine began using it's who may drones take russian oil facilities like these last year. while the geography of the strikes is expanded, the accuracy was still limited. often enough, the drones reached the target but failed to make much of an impact. that's now changing was an idea of. there are grounds for optimism. we saw footage of a ukrainian drown hitting

a russian oil refinery. so you can see the drone closing in the engine making a turn to insure it. it's toggle between the distillation called them. that means some of these drones now have navigation systems that enabled them to be my new bit into the targets. this send me a lot cheaper to what you see in a storm shadow crews, messiah storm shadowed up. and it's working. analysts say rushes were refunding capacity is dropped by more than 10 percent since the latest round of ukraine joined. strikes began early in january 2020 full ukraine is reducing versus oil exports to make it harder for letting me put in to finance is will this not only worrying people in the kremlin financial times reported that washington has requested key of still protecting russian oil infrastructure fearing these attacks could push prices up for you as consumers and home present biden's chances of re election. us officials including secretary of state mc blinking, have made

a point of stressing that the country has neither quotes supported nor enables ukrainian strikes on russian territory. children, but very room and income in social life. i think the strikes wouldn't be possible without wisdom, intelligence information that an able to print directly. strauss around questionnaire defenses. we're getting that information and we're thankful for it. for all the fear in western capital's, these drone strikes can escalate to expand the scope of this war here and ukraine, many fuel they have little to lose. their argument goes something like this. the west comp withholding industry aid. what was the lock and key if not, to use what it have? ukraine, they say, wait fight. this will with one hand tied behind his back. so how concerned should last go be about all of this? that's a question i put to a military analyst, frank lead, which at the top to cool level, the very serious if you heard that for mr. rahman and co, who outlined exactly how things are done and what they've done with. so yes,

the causing damage on you can see that when the americans actually state gets involved on the financial times of stating they, there's a strategic effect to it. there is that kind of effect as well. however, on the rest of the war efforts, it is i think right now at the level of just above use and starts at the highest level. however, ukraine is really majoring on these on these assets. they have announced just started to see at the formation. i think rightly very and know what to offer on model systems for speech like space school. so the apples a whole new service. so that really makes you this. they see this is a massive competitive edge. a lot of time to a great, we've seen the effective how to close as well in the black sea. so do you think they can help overcome ukraine's disadvantage on the battlefield? or yes, you know what you're talking about 8, but essentially an asymmetric approach. and otherwise the rest of right now has

a bunch of manpower and i'm heavy material. but the, that's a big post into the drug program from ukraine. and it's all i say, what to july sees coffee drove coalition, which includes many nato countries, notably britain in germany. you know, that's really rump hang up and is what i don't think it's offsetting versus advanced on the bus will see of the i don't, i don't necessarily think it will own it. so, but it's certainly a major factor right now in the war. and so you can see the us, you mentioned the secretary state there, we heard them in the report say they don't support nor enable ukrainian strikes on russian territory. and many other ukrainian allies say the same, but realistically, what ukraine even be able to attack russia without the support of its allies. yeah . different valley roman and codes, and tanya and realistic to expect that you can can kind of will be doing this on it . so the huge intelligence and intelligence and other forms of information going into going into your credit. now i've no doubt what sort of that intelligence is

used to talking purposes. and that may not be active assistance and full of personnel, but in terms of intelligence. absolutely. there is that was military analyst, frank language. and with him we have reached the end of our show. thank you so much for being with us today. the do big ultima view companies play a role in the destruction of the rain forest. the letter for luxury cost often comes from illegal capital funds in the m as in get the supply chains does matter to the deal industry. the illegal as a starts may said on dw.
