eordenko, bye , israel is hitting the gas sector, while after the attack by hamas new evidence of atrocities appears, this is what we are talking about on bbc news ukraine live from london, i am yevhennia shedlovska. what was an attack by palestinian militants on an israeli settlement is becoming clear now. headless bodies were found in kibbutz kfaraz. a bbc film crew visited there. the israeli military continues to strike the gas sector. palestinians say the situation there is catastrophic, the number of victims is increasing, more than 200 dead from both sides

the attack on october 7 shocked israel , militants of the palestinian group hamas broke through the barriers of the gaza strip, entered various israeli settlements, killed hundreds of people, took dozens of hostages, but what happened in kibbutz kwaraza was another blow. the israeli military says there was a real massacre. hamas fighters killed whole families there. the bbc's jeremy bowen visited this kibbutz and reported from there. kfar azarar - a small israeli community became a microcosm of the first days of the war and an example of what could happen next. israeli forces regained full control of the kibbutz only on monday. it is one of a number of small israeli bodies along the border. asia when we arrived,

the military was still shooting gas at the houses. israeli soldiers began fighting there on saturday around 6 p.m., about 12 hours after the hamas attack. these men are experienced soldiers, combat reservists. according to them , it was not easy to return the territories by fighting decisively. how difficult were the fights? can't you even imagine? and have you ever had to do something? similar before, no, exactly like this no, what will happen next, what will be done next, what will israel do next? i don't know, i'll do what they tell me, i hope we do. let's go

inside. gasoline? so. it will be a tough fight. yes, we are ready for it. kwaar azarar, like other settlements attacked by hamas, was caught unawares. kibbutz guards, local residents with military experience who patrolled the perimeter of the village, were the first to die. according to the soldiers, hamas broke into burned houses and killed entire families. because on the release of the kibbutz. many time, the army could not find all the dead civilians until yesterday. these were the bodies of the israelites. meanwhile, hamas fighters are still lying where they were killed. the killing of israeli civilians is undoubtedly a war crime. but what about the palestinian civilians israel kills in attacks on hamas? as you know, all armies are obliged by the laws of war to protect the lives of civilians . you do it with such a level.

airstrikes currently taking place and any potential ground operation. i am sure that we fight for our own all our lives values ​​and culture, and you know, when you take up your values, you have to stick to them. i assure you that we will be very aggressive and very strong to uphold our fighting spirit and our values. we are israelis, we are jews. war is a very difficult theater. it's a lot about killing the enemy, not civilians in their beds. but in just a few days, israel caused enormous damage to the gas. the israelis cut off food, water and electricity supplies and killed hundreds of civilians. israel says that for the suffering of the palestinians answers hamas. israel is already accused of the laws of war and such accusations will be

a greater measure of how the number of palestinians killed and wounded will increase. in kfar azar , israeli forces are considering the following. steps, ground invasion in gas. it was not easy for the israelis to win back this territory, these small border communities. needless to say, it will be much more of a challenge militarily to cross the border and enter the gas, potentially to fight for every house. and this is when hamas will be ready and waiting for such a scenario. some of these men is moving north, in case war breaks out. hezbollah, a powerful lebanese militia backed by iran. what happened here came as a shock to israel. that is why he insists that he must destroy hamas and points to the danger and uncertainty that lies ahead.

the atrocities committed in kibbutz kvaraz are compared to those committed by the russian military in the massacre near kiev, and the report from the israeli settlement, deboy. hamas killed dozens of people, you can also read on our website bbc.ua and there another article about kibbutzim and why they suffered the most from the hamas attack. so, israeli soldiers continue to collect the bodies of soldiers and civilians killed during the attack by hamas militants. already more than a thousand dead on each side. israel carries out airstrikes in the gaza strip day and night, which they say are aimed at the group. hamas, this is one of those gas attacks, residential buildings, mosques were destroyed there, entire neighborhoods were turned into ruins. it is important to remember that the gas sector is a densely populated area, here it is on the map. more than live here

2 million people in the gas sector, and today the gas sector is without electricity, the only local power plant is reported to have run out of fuel, so the locals now have to rely on the generals alone. israel announced a blockade of the gas sector after the attacks of hamas stopped the supply of water, fuel, food, everything. a bbc correspondent, ruzhdiya boalov, works in the gas station. he spoke about the destruction and the situation on the spot. we can now see the extent of the destruction in the area. this neighborhood is like that the economic center of gaza, which was and many buildings were destroyed, behind me an 11-story building was destroyed two days ago, but in general, the destruction in this area is relatively recent, it was attacked last night. the israeli authorities announced that they had carried out two hundred airstrikes against

the infrastructure of hamas. in fact, they hit many government buildings associated with the hamas leadership. but look at the scale of destruction in this region, how affected. houses of civilians, some of them were destroyed in the chand. i lost everything, my house my shop is completely destroyed where do we go we are homeless this man just told us we have to leave this area because it seems the israelis are warning the local residents to leave because they are going to attack other buildings in the same districts but look again at the scale of the destruction, israel is hitting houses, shops, ministries, mosques , everywhere, the entire neighborhood has been wiped off the face of the earth, and it was one of the most important economic centers of gaza, as you can see, most of the shops, houses,

infrastructure is damaged, the street leading to the southern part of the site is completely blocked. such destruction in gaza , meanwhile, israel is massing its troops near the gaza sector, gathering armored vehicles there, many tanks, it seems, are preparing for a possible ground operation, called 3000 reservists. and the first plane with american weapons arrived in israel, this video was released by the israeli ministry of defense . the united states, let me remind you, is a key partner of israel. so what will happen next in this war, analyzes. we spent this morning in a few kilometers from here near the border with the gas sector. the tension here is extremely high, military convoys and many armored vehicles are moving to the area. we heard volleys

of israeli artillery hitting targets in the gaza strip. where we were, the zone is now closed, the area of ​​the armed operation, so we saw how the whole sky above the gas was. it was so heavily shelled by israeli forces, but later the israeli military ordered all journalists to leave the area because the danger had increased, their air defense batteries... and the ironclad system the dome worked continuously for more than an hour, while rockets launched by hamas continued to fly here. rockets hit the city of ashkelon behind my back, rockets fell not far from here, i can still taste the burning pain and the smoke from the explosions is visible in the air. in this area, everyone feels tense to the edge, as the ground operation of the israeli army approaches, the nervousness increases. yesterday there was an infiltration attempt at kibbutz za kim not far from here. hamas fighters

tried to enter here from the sea, but were stopped by security forces. and if you look at cadres from gaza, it becomes clear what is the complexity of any security operation in the sector. there are many challenges here, which is why israeli leaders, including binyamin netanyahu, have been slow to send troops here. what to do when already there, in gaza, where there is a high density of population and buildings, where everything is controlled by hamas, and we saw how many resources and careful planning the militants spent on this unprecedented attack on israel, both on land, sea and air, so we can be sure assert, they likewise prepared for the day when israel will come for retribution, because even today, on the fifth day of the war, rockets are fired at israel from gaza, and this is when we, as in the incessant airstrikes of the israelis, whole neighborhoods in gaza with leveled ground.

and at the beginning of the issue, we talked about the massacre in kibbutz kwaraza near the gaza strip, another place where mass killings took place was a music festival near the settlement of riim, hamas militants killed 260 people there and took hostages. in general , israel claims that hamas killed 100-150 people during the attack. bbc correspondent lucy williamson spoke with the relatives of the abducted children. the road that led to the open- air party is now an open-air crime scene. the path of hamas fighters is covered with their bodies and weapons. their goal is the venue of the festival, where they will die. hundreds of people, the reference point of this complex attack, among

the dead were the passengers of this car, they were shot when they tried to escape, bodies and debris still lie along the road that leads to the venue of the festival. the police told us that this car was used by hamas fighters, the land is here still covered with the remains of their... weapons and military uniforms. several days have passed since the attack, and the families of the victims are still here trying to find out what happened to their loved ones. four members of yaniv's family are among the hostages kidnapped by the militants. these are his nephews, 12-year-old yagil and 16-year-old or. the boys managed to call their mother before the armed men took them from the neighboring house. then they said they heard someone break in the door and enter the house. about 10 minutes later, i heard

people outside the door speaking arabic. then the door opened and i heard my youngest son say: don't touch me, i'm still small. that was the last i heard from them. these inhumans took children out of their homes, out of their cribs, they just kidnapped them and are holding them hostage. their father and his girlfriend are considered missing. judging by this video, they are in the hands of militants. this wait is killing. i see how broken my mother is. this is the hardest for me. i can be strong, i can feed the whole family, but it is difficult for me to see how my mother suffers. and while israel continues to shell targets with gas, hamas threatens to start executing hostages in response. with each strike, one sees the face of israel's military might, but

ranana sees the face of her children. this is the end of it, see you tomorrow. pain can become an obstacle, walking stairs, not with my knees, for knee pain, try dolgit cream. kremgit with reduces swelling and improves the mobility of joints with dolgit cream , you can also walk dolgit - the only yellow cream for pain in the joints with muscle spasms tablets dolgit anti-convulsants dolgit anti-convulsants for relaxing the muscles of the legs. when civilization is wiped out by a pandemic, a teenage girl may be humanity's last hope. watch the hbo series that took

and results of this trip will be told by the correspondents of radio liberty in brussels, they were watching for visas. and the war in israel and the world's reaction to events in the middle east. white house national security adviser jake sullivan said that the us has enough resources to support both ukraine and israel at the same time. but is it really? and why aid to israel does not cause such controversy in the us, particularly among republicans, as aid to ukraine. about that's all today in svoboda live. the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine announced that the russian troops intensified their offensive near avdiyivka and pervomaiskyi in the donetsk region, in the avdiyivka district, i remind you, since 2014 it has been located in the ukrainian army's military district. tanks and armored vehicles. as

stated in the summary, the ukrainian military repelled all attacks, and here is a literal quote, and did not allow the loss of borders and positions. on the eve of the ukrainian military bloggers wrote about the difficult situation and powerful attacks by infantry and armored vehicles of the russian army in avdiyivka district. the authorities reported on the massive shelling of the city, which continued since the very morning of yesterday, and some russian military telegram channels announced that their attacking units managed to advance, in particular to the village of berdych, as you can see on the map, it is northwest of avdiyivka. well, avdiivka itself, although now it can be stated, probably, that it is already ruins, but nevertheless, avdiivka is located a few kilometers from the north of the outskirts of donetsk. andriy kovalev, spokesman of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine, has already joined our broadcast. my greetings to you. glory to ukraine. glory to the heroes, andrii, what has changed in avdiivka since yesterday?

pasto, well, i will start with the most important, obviously, very important things that need to be explained to our viewers and listeners, indeed, the russian occupiers have intensified their offensive since yesterday in the district. more precisely, they concentrated their offensive efforts in the avdiivka, tonenko, keramika and pervomai areas, the most important thing to say is that you should not panic, this situation that is happening is not a surprise for the armed forces of ukraine, our units and our commanders were ready for this, it is clear if you look at the map of the hostilities that you are currently showing, it is obvious that we understood that the intentions of the russian occupiers exist, this is, firstly, secondly, similar situations, similar attacks, the russian occupiers are actually

trying to inflict on different parts of the front, and it must be said that now, in addition to avdiyka, the russian occupiers are trying to take certain such assault actions, for example, in the kupinsky direction in tsinkivky and ivanivky districts, at the same time, yesterday and today, units of the ukrainian defense forces actively repelled the attacks of the russian invaders in the districts, and none of the russian attacks were successful. this is eloquently evidenced by the figures for yesterday, for example, there were about 107 combat clashes along the entire line of combat, in the east and south of our country, such as in the area of ​​avdia. such combat clashes took place only in the past day more than 40. and for example, if we are talking

about the losses of the russian occupiers, then yesterday, in the area of ​​avdiyivka, for example, a russian su-25 fighter was destroyed. also, 16 tanks were destroyed, 56 armored fighting vehicles were destroyed. only in the avdiyiv direction, and believe me, these are very big losses for the russian occupiers. for example, already today, ukrainian defenders are showing photos, showing shots of the successful work of the armed forces of ukraine in only one position, in the avdiiv direction, for example, today, during one attack by the russian was destroyed, dos. we are russian combat vehicles. we will be able to say about today's results in general, only in tomorrow's summary, of the general staff

, to accurately indicate the losses that the russian occupiers are receiving in this direction, but believe me, in reality, for the russian occupiers, these losses are truly catastrophic. why are the russian occupiers doing this? obviously, their most important goal is from... our forces, our reserves in those directions where the armed forces of ukraine are currently conducting active, assault actions, where they are going to offensive, in particular, the melitopol direction and the bakhmut direction, where i will remind you that, even in the past, the armed forces of ukraine were successful. let me clarify, you gave us the summary of the general staff, after all, we read it all in the morning and in the evening, but here is the head of the avdiiv city military administration, he, vitaly barabash, he literally said more than an hour ago that there are no exaggerations, that there is really very hot, and he says that yesterday's and today's confrontation, as far as i understand it, is the biggest attack since

on the part of the russian army for... all the time, do you, or you, share this thesis? absolutely, i share this thesis, but it is necessary to understand that the russian occupiers are looking for weak points in our defense, and let's say, a few months ago , the russian occupiers tried to concentrate their efforts in the same way and actively attack our units, for example, in the kupinsky direction, dragging them there, let's say those reserves that the armed forces of ukraine have prepared for hostilities. before that , the russian occupiers, let me remind you, even before that , a few months ago, tried something similar carry out offensive actions in the direction of bakhmut. now we see that, for example, the russian occupiers, even from the luhansk region, are transferring units from the luhansk direction to the avdiivka direction , hoping to make a breakthrough here, and

the surroundings, avdiivka, in fact, they are really targeting the surroundings of avdiivka, as we can see, it exists there on the map certain such strategic performance, in our defense, and the russian occupiers are obviously trying both from the north and from the south to conduct offensive actions, although, i repeat, they are unsuccessful. clarification, literally, briefly, the ukrainian army in avdiivka, it is more defensive there, or more trying to go on the offensive, or is it some kind of thing. actually, it is clear that right now i cannot comment on the character and actions of the armed forces of ukraine, nor on the positions they are in, but with more roughly, i can tell you that these are combined actions, the enemy is lured and destroyed, in fact, in these enemy attacks, our armed forces exhaust the enemy's forces, but also try to hit

the enemy's supply routes, and first of all burn the equipment, i would like you understood that in fact, more than half of the destroyed equipment, which was talked about in the general staff meeting, was destroyed in the past day precisely in the avdiyiv direction. i heard you, thank you very much, andriy kovalev, spokesman of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. thank you for joining our broadcast, we talked about avdiyivka and we will continue this topic, in particular the head of the avdiyivka city military administration vitaliy barabash, as i already said. less than a little more than an hour ago , he stated that such a powerful attack in the avdiiv direction had never happened earlier, and that is why he assumed, a really big confrontation is now starting in the avdiyiv direction, and yehor firsov, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, a paramedic, egor, i am glad to welcome you to our air, and i wish you health, in i have the same question for you, how radically has the situation changed in avdiivka, or on the approaches to

avdiivka? well, i will tell you my subjective opinion, because i started my service directly from avdiyivka, i also saw the nature of hostilities there, and this is very a serious attack by the enemy, that is, everything seriously, with the use of all types of weapons, begins, starting with small artillery, mortars, then hailstones, ending with airplanes, fabas, kebabs, actively... very actively and by the way, well, let's say this, we lack parity in the air very much, and ending with the same fpv drones and generally different types of uavs. the enemy has greatly prepared the use of fpv drones, not only we use, but unfortunately, the enemy uses against us. in principle, this is how the situation looks, because avdiivka is this

right next to us, we are also involved in these operations to destroy the horde, the enemy, directly the company in which, i have the opportunity to serve, here is the anti-aircraft company, and we are also monitoring the situation, preparing for operations to impress the enemy , the task, well, i will say certain theses, maybe they are not known in the media, but the defense of avdiivka is in fact managed by one of the super experienced officers, i will not name his name, a hero of ukraine, truly a hero of ukraine, here, avdiivka has been holding on for a year and a half of full-scale war, and the task before, in in principle, all fighters face the following task, not just to hold their positions, but to inflict heavy losses on the enemy and defeat the enemy, so that the enemy is demoralized, and in the next wave, inflict on the enemy what you asked the spokesman about.
