is really bombardment of his blogs, hunger as uh, now dead, as is rarely will plains pound, submitted to them group taking all the military infrastructure and picking of leaders and targets. it strikes international warnings of a conflict spiraling tool. it's even more violent is dominating, told set the united nations. the head of these really military says that contain, will intensify further. and hezbollah says the war is entering a new phase all signs point to the conflict, getting worse, and no point the way to peace. god, office in berlin, and this is the day the have we not learned anything from what has been happening and god's over the past year. we should all be a lot of the, by the escalation. lebanon is at the beginning. i can assure you that we are almost

enough full fledged full scale awards. not that anyone's interest fits. finance has to stop immediately. and the consequences will be on constant about these can not be the new normal was the there is a gathering in new york. they need to prioritize bringing this concept to an end also coming up, people in ne, not jerry takes good stock of to the was flooding to the region in decades. those who escaped of finding there is much to attend to as the flood. what does begin to receive what's not left in his wake is a trade of damage. these homes are completely self managed when the what types of hits i'm interested in. so i left with no choice but way backwards. there's no search and see a windows icon with that guy that says welcome to the day i us israel and has the law has again traded heavy fine as the conference

between the 2 sides escalates, as well as military says it's killed that has black commodity, fresh air strikes against the minutes in group 11 and israel targeted has bloss me, solid rock, and chief. he brought him to base the 11 and says aries have now killed at least 550 people in the last day. global leaders are calling for an immediate end to the fighting. as fee is grove of an all out will. tens of thousands of people in southern lebanon have fled, as well as a tax rushing news in search of safety. the race to escape, israel's attacks has left the roads to pay route, jammed with traffic more challenges await the displaced in the capital key among them finding shelter the schools like this one have opened that tools to those falls. definitely, knowledge number yesterday was unlike anything i've been through before that

despite having lived through many attached and it truly felt like a full scale war. there are many monitors whose bodies are still under the rubble. a lot in categories are going to cover sound like clear that they don't believe israel is only targeting, has been a for that and we evacuated our homes because israel is targeting civilians and attacking them. it is not striking, minute to targets only civilian ones. i mean, football is really military, however, since it has only been striking has been a targets, including weapons, stores, missile launches, and other military infrastructure behind. it's also released videos like this one that it says proves the militia group is hiding weapons inside civilian buildings. but up to this footage that hasn't been independently verified supposedly shows a missile exploding out of a house officer was hit by his railey strike, merely seen lebanese authorities say hundreds of people have already been killed,

including at least 50 children. the wounded of flooding into lebanon's, already overburdened hospitals. a hi essence. yeah. and unfortunately what we're seeing is that most of those who died as a result of yesterday's attack. so since i was a 1000000000 us in the homes and i was the name and you can see men is it with israel, seemingly set on destroying has village ability to attack is riley soil. it's the lebanese people who once again, quote, in the middle as well as face the bars of international criticism for it's comparing against sizeable on the 11th is the full, the is rarely defense minister penny guns. addressing that in a conversation with dw, this is very important that you, we all remember, everybody looks, it is really and expected to solve this problem really is really did installed this problem. it's almost did. so if his follow who joy come us on october 6,

it was the peaceful, quiet area. on october 6th, 20000 put this thing in bulk is with working and he is with children of gods over treated. the news really pushed. they started this for risk offensive on october 7th, his butler joining them. we have no choice but to defend us if it's true that we are strong, good then the others, but the doesn't mean we are not right. we are right. oh, close is right. we have no interest in living on other than security. any peace butler wants to destabilize this area. he would pay the government to live in them, unfortunately, really pays with. i don't think that he's, but actually serves anybody's interest. he serves the reunion interest and it's a huge mistake. huge mistake. he would pay for it. unfortunately,

the others would pay for it. so going to be easy on us. i understand that. but it seems like we that's bringing the dana stroll. she is the director of research at the washington institute for near east policy. and previously she served as deputy assistant secretary of defense for the middle east, making her the pentagon, top official with responsibility for the region. welcome to the day and then a, do you see any shots of a successful diplomatic pushed in the escalation 11 then? thanks so much for having me. that's clearly what washington and president biden is aiming for. many is really officials are talking about their current approach as escalate to de escalate. meaning making it clear to has bola that there is no choice other than to stops is campaign of rockets and drones and missiles into israel and to look for an off ramp. and

a diplomatic agreement that can stop all of the exchange retaliatory strikes between 11 on and israel and return communities, especially the over 70000 is really civilians that have been displaced from northern israel and allow them to return to their communities in the north. now israel has been responding to the attacks by hezbollah since october rates last year. when has the time is rel installer? there are 2 with her mos why has israel decided now is the time to escalate the conflict or for a few reasons. first of all, it is true that has bo started firing projectiles into israel on october 8th, 24 hours after that deadly october 7th, attacked by a mosque that killed almost $1200.00 is really civilians. but 1st, the israel defense forces were focused on their campaign in casa, their 1st priority was to militarily dismantle

a mouth and make sure that it could not again, arbitrate the kind of attack that it did on israel. so generally speaking for the past 11 months, what the israel defense forces have been focused on is ground forces operations and can speeding their objectives in gaza while escalating increased mentally against us. bella in northern israel, but preserving actions to not cross the threshold into full scale war. and that's been very important for the usual defense forces. and the use is really government based on the view that they couldn't fight on 2 fronts, couldn't fight a full scale. oregon says bowler, and also against come off. but now, 11 months later, the operations, these high intensity operations and gods are winding down, the 70000 is really civilians displaced from their homes in northern israel are heavily criticizing these really governments and has balls. attacks have been escalating against israel, including that attack against a truce community that resulted in the death of 12 children and several months ago

. and now some of as well as weapons of thought to be embedded in heavily populated areas and civilian houses. what's your assessment of how much hum to lebanese civilians is or at least prepared to accept know, it will face international criticism for that. or i think there's a very high risk of serious collateral damage and civilian casualties if this war continues. and especially if it escalates and let's not forget that come off of work, how twin bed it's weapons and it's fighters and civilian areas. from his paula, this is a handful of playbook. and we know for years now that after that 2006 conflict between his bola and israel, it expanded its weapons arsenal, and has disguised more of its weapons in residential areas and densely populated areas. and we've seen an example of that in the past 48 hours,

where as israel under told the most expansive air campaign, it hasn't guessed as the law since that 2006 more. there are also reports of over $500.00 casualties. i expect that number is going to climb. israel continues to target these areas and we know that the issue of the task force is have sent messages to all of the civilians. if you know that you are in an area where heads, all the fighters and weapons are, you need to leave. now. the question, of course, is, where did the civilians go where they can be saved and out of harm's way. now is it possible to say what has the laws of logic or has been over the past year? and is there any shots? israel can force, has applied to the link. it's actions from what's happening in god, a hi phone. this role of the leader of has bella was quite clear in early november last year about his organization's objectives. the 1st was to pressure israel so that it could not exclusively focus on fighting

a moss and all that. so maintaining pressure on israel and to that his campaign and his bolus campaign against israel will not stop until there's a 1000 see fire. the challenges that this is a trap for house on this role of because yeah, yes. and we're the leader of a mosse hiding somewhere in the tunnels under gaza. appears completely and disposed to committing to what her moss would need to do for a cease fire, including releasing the remaining passages. and so now let's roll on. has bella has have suffered enormous losses in leadership, in weapons, etc. and yet he appears unwilling or unable to de link what his bowl is doing from a perpetual conflict in gaza. now, what is this will going to do to, as well as position is acceptance within lebanon as but was position with 11 on was already precarious. and majority, it has all a support comes from shia muslims who with predominately in southern lebanon. but

those are the very residents who have had to evacuate their communities because of this really strikes in those areas in response to as well as campaign of terror. but in the other parts of the very uh, wiley diapers and next to carrying and religious to sidle fabric of love and on has spell, is viewed as responsible for the 2020. they move forward explosion. they blocked the judges and investigators from figuring out the truth about that. they've taken out lebanese civil society activists. they have targeted loved these politicians and they have lots the lebanese parliament from forming a new government that could actually deliver the kinds of economic reforms necessary to stabilize webinar. so generally, as both support is waning across let and on. and they might actually be blamed for not stopping their campaign, which has led to this route is really action. now, if the u. s. has found it hard to rein in israel over gaza. what could washington

do to calm the situation 11? well, 1st of all, president biden and his team and actually been quite clear that the support equals right to defend itself. and it has all of that started this campaign. the real risk is that it doesn't just remain, it has bullet israel conflict, but that a ron decides to step in and this becomes a regional war of full scale conflagration, not just between loving on and israel, but across the entire region. so the administration here is concerned about protecting us forces, $40000.00 of which are deployed in the middle east. and they are quite interested in preventing a full scale regional war, which would lead to on told numbers of civilian deaths and collateral damage. a stainless roll down the phone with us deputy assistant secretary of defense for them, at least. thank you very much for sharing your expertise with us here on the day. thanks for having us.

presidential biden is called for an end to current global conflicts. and as final address to the united nations general assembly in new york biden spoke about the was in ukraine engine garza and such a diplomatic solution to the conflict between israel and has. but it was still possible. the president also want that iran must never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. but there was also optimism, as he looked back on his many decades in politics. i know i know many look at the world today and see difficulties react to despair. but i do not, i want as waiters, we don't have the luxury. i recognize the challenges we crave, the guys, it's a sedan, beyond war, hunger, chairs, brutality, record displacement of people, climate crisis,

democracy at risk. strangers in our societies. promise of artificial intelligence and significant risk less goes on. but maybe because all i've said, all we have done together over the decades, i have hope. i know there is a where a way forward that because one into a benjamin of ours through but joins is now from outside the un headquarters in new york. and what message was buying, trying to send to the world today. so it was indeed a message of hope. well, also a good knowledge in these crises. you spoke about ukraine. he spoke about the me least about the situation in gauze about the hostages. saying that both the parents and families of the hostages, but also the people in gauze are going through how those were. he's was also a referring to the situation in 1011 on what we're seeing is rally as try some of

the last couple of days say that it's still time for a negotiated solution. so it was a message of hope focus, also to cement his legacy when it comes to foreign policy. he spoke a lot about his, a decades a is a public servant and also this of course will be his final speech. it was his last speech at the un general assembly was also addressed. ukraine saying that the united states will continue, is supporting you, create a regardless of who's in the white house next time. now it's $10.00 to $11.00 in the rush setting up. how did the president react to the latest wave of bombings that so what we've heard from people close to the president from his advisors is that they don't see that the deal can be rich reached during a president biden's term that will end in january. of course, a lot of negotiations is going on here behind closed doors, and that will be the topic of the middle east over these next couple of days. we

are waiting also for his really prime minister benjamin netanyahu policing indeed i'm with us will both address the general assembly on thursday. and there was also the topic during the so called somebody to of the future that ended on monday evening with many a calling vote. at the end of his cell, which is the escalation, and we'll, we'll also look at what a, the judge, the secretary general of the u. n. 20 gutierrez said that the many countries that are just going on without facing any accountability for those actions. so that's also assign beside to do some play is also meant to reach. now the one ukraine was center stage last year, general assembly not so this year, but it will still mention wasn't it? that's right, and also because during last year's un general assembly october 7th did not happen . and everything that happened afterwards in gauze and occupied westbank in now in south and 11. and, but of course, ukraine is still an important topic here. ukrainian president fuller,

junior zalinski, the we'll meet on thursday, not only president biden and vice president terrace, but also former president donald trump, meeting with republicans. and also with democrats. meeting was politically from across the all to secure supports, not just from this administration, but also for the next one. so it will still be very present to you at the you in general, listen, w correspondence, benjamin alvarez, a group of the reported from the united nations in new york. thank you. we're going to take you to know if he's nigerian. now if people have had to live with a threat of conflict in terrorism for years now that troubles have been compounded by the was floods to the region in decades. heavy rains recently bus the dom and bono state in on dating the capital. my degree does is were killed and hundreds of thousands forced from the homes. now people are starting to a ton to see what's left of the devastated city. dw is the least such

a cool before it's it's been nearly 2 weeks since by gonna okay, why cube fled the floods direct his whole life a t and he's finally escaped. but they don't have much to come back to me. i don't, i don't want to sit lactose, but you can see all my electronics damage or my, you know, in bates withdrawal, including doctors, my wife and mail and what attend established. the idea of returning seems fido we drive on for now. he and his family are staying in different places. the most painful thing is too much. i'm not with them. if i'm in my, my child is not even fit into book. just because he needs to be. the floods

generation. as the flood waters begin to recede. what's not left in his wake is a trade of damage. these homes are completely solved. marriage when the what size hits i'm interested in. so i left with no choice but way backwards. there's no search and see of when to kind of it's on my back on the head that the government promised to help those affected both says he and his family happens because anything yet we often into and problem and causes this is up to a month with the situation and the optim on is the more than due to the situation in promoting his community will likely now face what that bond diseases and food in security on top of the problems they have before. they will be hoping the government will learn from this disaster and make the infrastructure more risky

to cry. and now where the war has up and it's almost everything including romantic relationships and families. government data show birth rates are the 10 year low, and marriage rates almost as low in the time of war love, it seems, is not what it used to be. the son of funding comm reports from keith looking for love foss. this is the d team in century keith ties is a deacon coach for me. she says the board has linked to many couples waking up and made the dating scene unpredictable of the smoke zone. fisher. you're truly the moves i hear from him, but it's not easy for them to find a girlfriend,
