7:00 pm
were just torn apart by those terrorists, the hostages that had their children and those families in gaza right now, those palestinians that are caught up in the middle of all this, families as well, losing loved ones, trying to get out and no place to go, and the sad reality, jose, this is likely just starting. >> yeah. and tom, i think about how different the world was just eight days ago, before a group was recent to exist is the destruction of the jewish people, massacred so many men, women, and children. and yes, where there is always hope, there is also the fear that the suffering is just going to get even worse. in the days, weeks, and months to come. tommy ellis, that wraps up this special report on jose diaz -- thank you to my dear friend and colleague, tom. the last two hours from tel aviv. please stay safe, my friend. coverage of the israel hamas or continues. o continues.
7:01 pm
>> good evening. i'm lindsay reiser, you are watching msnbc's continuing coverage of the israel hamas war. and breaking just within the last hour, we have learned a tentative agreement to allow americans safe passage through the rafah border crossing continues to face significant obstacles. nbc news reports that would be a key item on secretary blinken's agenda when he lands and cairo tomorrow. right now, up to 600 americans are still stranded in gaza after that's promised pathway to safety felt through earlier today. u.s. officials said they would negotiate temporary opening at the border between gaza and egypt, for american citizens seeking to flee. but evacuees made their way to the crossing say they found a closed. while there's still no guarantee that hamas, which controls the gaza side of the border, will allow safe passage, the state department continues
7:02 pm
to publicly urged americans and gaza to move south. cautioning, if that crossing opens that, window could be brief. the ground invasion believed to be imminent, securing safe passage for americans to the rafah crossing, remains and administrative priority, according to multiple sources. our crew along the -- sound of drones and fighter jets could be heard overhead, as well as artillery. and tanks on flat beds are the only vehicles on the road, headed in the direction of gaza. another carrier strike brought the uss dwight d. eisenhower is now headed to the eastern mediterranean from virginia, joining the uss gerald r old ford carrier striker that arrived earlier this week. and as israel reels from its worst terrorist attack in decades, people in gaza are now bracing for what comes next. the order from israeli forces for the more than 1 million palestinians to head south has expired. all while the humanitarian crisis in gaza worsens, as they have no clean water,
7:03 pm
electricity, internet, or fuel. 1:18-year-old gaza resident, who fled south with his mother, told nbc news what life was like after being displaced from his home. >> we live here without water, and electricity, without internet. the life, like nothing. [speaking in a global language] and no place to live in gaza right now. >> we go live to our reporters, both at home and abroad. nbc news correspondent alison barber joins us live from the northern israel gaza border, and nbc news correspondent erin gilchrist is at the white house. , okay dna to both of you. alison, why are you seeing at the border at this hour? >> hey, lindsey. you mentioned the sounds we have been hearing throughout the night. the sounds of drones and fighter jets in the air above us. just in the last five minutes, we saw tanks rolling alone the
7:04 pm
streets near where we are standing. you could hear the trucks on those tanks clanking on the pavement as they made their way into the direction of gaza. this is actually, it's a beautiful night. we were talking and looking into the sky. you could see the stars. it's very clear, a perfect view of the big dipper. in between all of that, you hear the tanks moving now. you hear the drones overhead. you hear the fighter jets, and every now and again, it is starting to pick up a little bit more in the last hour. we are hearing the sound of artillery booms and then here and they are, you hear the night sky light of. again, all of that in the direction of gaza in the last few hours before that, it had been relatively calm, compared to what it had been like as we have been in this area on the overnight hours the last couple of days. it was the longest gap, a few hours in the overnight hours, or we weren't hearing a lot of artillery. we weren't seeing missiles
7:05 pm
coming from the israeli side. things are kind of quiet. we are starting to hear more of those booms the rolling thunder like sounds of artillery, and again, we have seen, and i think we have some video of that that we can all look at here, that our crew was able to get of tanks on the street right outside from where, right next to where we are standing. lindsey? >> you mentioned the iroquois, it as we look at the area you're talking about. the tank on the right behind. you will know israel be announced center grove a should. so what would you be watching for? >> we have seen, in the last couple of days, justice increasing, increasingly large presence and movement of military tanks, military equipment and flat beds carrying massive amounts of jewelry flood bags, carrying heavy moving earth moving machinery. all of it and the direction of gaza. we know that in terms of being ready to launch full ground assault on gaza, everything we
7:06 pm
have seen, particularly in the last 36 to 48 hours indicates that they already on the border. they have everything in place, supplies, the people are here. the question is just when will they decide that now is that time? there are lots and when we hear artillery and we heard missile strikes, but in the last few days there have been steady waves of back and forth missiles coming from inside gaza. heading in the direction of israel, and missiles hitting from israel and the direction of gaza. last, not when we were even closer to the border, before israeli forces told us we had to move back. when you watch the skyline and we had an even clearer view that we do now, if you see anything global jaime, that is gaza over my shoulder. but the skyline. it was completely dark once the sunset because there is no power inside of gaza. but you would see the flashes of orange across the skyline
7:07 pm
lighting up as air were conducted inside the gaza strip. lindsey? >> erin, earlier we learned that president biden spoke with prime minister benjamin not here for the fifth time since last to this attack. how is the administration preparing ahead of israel's eminent ground operation? >> the two leaders did speak again today, as you said, for the fifth time. the president again reiterated support for what the israelis are doing, the operations there in the pecking at this point. he also updated the israeli leader about military efforts and military support as you mentioned the uss eisenhower carrier strike group is moving towards the mediterranean. now and there are other admonitions being flown into israel to support its efforts as the president has said to defend itself. efforts obviously the president wants to continue to support. in the competition today, the president reiterated that warning we've heard several times this week to authorities outside of israel, state and
7:08 pm
non state actors, warning that not to interfere. not to try to get involved with the conflict going on right now between israel and hamas. it was also a significant portion of the discussion, we, understand about the humanitarian crisis that is unfolding inside gaza right now. he talked about that u.s. working with the u.n. and several countries in the region to try to make sure there is a way forward, resources, to flow into gaza. food, water, medical aid as. well there was also a conversation the president had today with the leader of the palestinian authority, mahmoud abbas, telling him there was a need to work together and mantra people and gaza can get the things they need and a step in to help out as rallies, moved areas to work that could be increased safety. there was also, again, that warning that went out to the palestinian leader about that need to make sure there were no outside echoes trying to get into the conflict and using whatever influence he has to
7:09 pm
talk to others outside of israel and out of the palestinian territories about escalating the conflict happening there. now >> aaron, what else to the president say at his speech at the human rights campaign to know tonight, specifically about his zoom call with american families whose children are the whereabouts of their missing loved ones and israel? >> that was a major point the president made in his comments or not. he spoke at this dinner, and event hayes attended for several years, and he talked, obviously, about lgbtq rights, as was the focus of the center. but he also took advantage of the opportunity to wave and to that speech some comments about what's going on and israel. and the conversation he had with families of people who are still missing in gaza after the attack last sunday. the president wanted to make sure that he had an opportunity to hear stories from those families about the people who are missing. reassure him that the administration's doing everything it can to help israel find the people who are missing. i want you to hear a little bit
7:10 pm
of what the presidents it's not during his comments. >> yesterday i spoke for over an hour with family members of those americans who are still unaccounted for on a zoom call. they have entered agony, not knowing what's happening. not the same thing, but i can tell you what it is. like it's one thing to lose somebody or know you're going to lose, be there, to hold your hand. like i had to do with my son. it's a very other thing to get a phone call, like i got years ago saying they had been an accident. your wife and daughter are dead, i'm not sure if your boys are going to make it. the uncertainty of those two or three hours, trying to get back to find out. it's the worst feeling and the world. it's gut-wrenching. >> lindsey, the president also talked about the power of hate. he talked about the antisemitism that exists, obviously, in the middle east
7:11 pm
right now. and here in this country as well. he talked about author phobias that exist, at this point in time. he said we have to reject hate in every form. and he said that the message he wants to stand in the room where he was tonight, and around the world, is that there is a need for everyone to stand up against hate and for humanity. lindsey? >> aaron gilchrist, thanks. you alison barber, you and your crew stay safe. we appreciate your reports. let's bring an expert world editor laurent whitney -- lauren thanks for being with us tonight. >> thank you for having me. >> i want to ask you about that message from prime netanyahu, visiting israeli defense force troops earlier today. warning the next pledges of this -- what can we expect from israel's counteroffensive? >> we know that a ground offensive is eminent. as to when exactly it will happen, i not sure anyone really knows. but what we do know is netanyahu will definitely want
7:12 pm
to have as much support behind him with politically and within the public as possible. because we do know this is going to be likely an incredibly bloody invasion of gaza. and so he definitely will have that support and want to ensure morale within the idf and israeli military is as high as it can be going into something that will likely be unfortunately say a lot more casualties on both sides. >> it's so hard to comprehend the suffering will only get worse. i want to talk about the humanitarian crisis unfolding in gaza. we heard from a president at the top of the show, but what are the conditions like at this moment? how bad could it get? >> the conditions are dire. for the last four or five days, we've been hearing from the u.n., from the palestinian red
7:13 pm
crescent society, from the red cross, et cetera. groups that are within gaza and saying the conditions are, quite frankly, unprecedented. we heard from the palestinian, that you end palestinian refugee agency chief today. he said water is running out. people will die of dehydration and starvation. and i think that those dire warnings are very much at the front of people's minds, and i think part of the reason why president biden also secretary of defense austin, they've both spoke about the humanitarian crises over the past two days. that wasn't something we were seeing earlier before. so the conditions and gaza are dire. hospitals are over well and, you know, ambulances have been attacked and all those sorts of things and they're running out of food. at the end of the day, israel has imposed a complete siege on
7:14 pm
the enclave. and until eighth is allowed to come in, until fuel is allowed to come, in those conditions are only going to worsen. >> we are looking at images from a hospital and gaza, for so many have fled to seek refuge. some don't even have sheets or a blanket to lay on. texas is out with new warnings for iran regarding the possible intervention in the world. what more can you tell us? >> iran today sent several messages to israel, my colleague barack repeat reported that they sent what message v at the u.n. and they also saw the iranian foreign minister make public comments, as well. they were moralis in line with each other and around is basically saying we don't want this to escalate. but if this continues its bombardment of gaza and especially if a current invasion happens, it will have to intervene. and i think it's really
7:15 pm
concerning, particularly not only for israel, and the rest of the region, but also to western governments as well. been trying to defer iran or other groups from being involved. what iran's involvement might, made in the right or, direct obviously hezbollah, there have been some cross border, tensions across the border but as far as we know they aren't fully involved in the fighting it. it could go that way, it could be something that syria or something much more bigger and obviously original or i think is a lot of people don't want. >> laurin-whitney gottbrath, then q summertime. nick, a member of the house foreign affairs committee joins me to discuss international reaction, humanitarian crisis in gaza. and what we are to to get americans out safely as our special coverage of the israel-hamas war continues, right here on msnbc. t here on msnbc.

7:20 pm
diplomatic channel to try to get americans out of gaza, but a kind of agreement to allow them safe passage continues to face obstacles. the state department told american citizen and gaza earlier, move south toward the rafah crossing at the egyptian border. nbc news report no discussions between the u.s., egypt, qatar, and is now focused on a five hour window, during which u.s. citizens could pass through the rafah crossing today. that deadline came and went. with little forces. u.s. secretary of state anty blinken will put the issue front and center when he lands in cairo tomorrow. he's visiting arab nations in an effort to prevent or from expanding. today he met with defense officials and saudi arabia, then traveled to united arab era merits -- joining me now is brad schneider, member of the house foreign affairs committee. good evening. >> good evening. >> i want to ask you about that
7:21 pm
cy passage. can they give us any updates on what's being done to get americans out of gaza? and also, what are the significant obstacles that remain? >> i think the administration working every angle and can conceive of to work with the egyptians and israelis to create safe passage. out of agent for american citizens and other foreign nationals. and the goal is not just that, it's to create a humanitarian corridor so that civilians in gaza can find safe harbor. >> to you know if there are sticking points on either side? is it about hamas control and they got outside of the border? is there something that went wrong on the egyptian side? >> i don't know the details. there is a video of hamas blocking civilians from moving south from gaza city. towards that rough across. and there is some challenges. this is a war zone. all kinds of challenges.
7:22 pm
the goal is to try to create that pathway for citizens of other countries to get out of gaza and ultimately create a humanitarian corridor for the civilians of gaza to get out of harm's way. >> congressman, the u.s. dwight d. eisenhower carrier is making its way to -- what can you tell us about this latest development? how significant is that to have these two group station there? >> i think it's quite significant. it's a reflection of president biden's commitment to support israel. the hamas attack was a terrific terrorist attack on humber-st., killing more than 1300 civilians and injuring more than 3000 others and taking hostages. israel has every right to defend itself, to secure its borders, protected citizens. and arrest the captives. and the u.s. is standing behind israel, signaling to others they shouldn't make any moves to take advantage of the situation. >> i want to play a clip of
7:23 pm
secretary blinken met with saudi foreign minister. let's listen. >> the primary suffer of the situation are civilians, civilian populations on both sides being affected. it's important, i think, that we all condemned the targeting of civilians and any form, at anytime. >> congressman, we know the situation and gaza is deteriorating by the minute. what more should be done so that anderson civilians are not kills? >> again, hamas needs to let the civilianization cowsert city, the northern part of the gaza strip, move to the south to get out of harm's way. ultimately, this conflict would end of gaza -- if hamas release the hostages and lay down their arms. we know that what happened. hamas exists for one purpose, to destroy israel and killed jews. we saw that on october 7th. israel cannot lead that exist. there will be no peace for palestinians or israelis, as long as hamas controlled gaza.
7:24 pm
ultimately, what needs to happen as israel -- needs to make sure that gaza kind of longer govern gaza, which is kind of a misnomer. hamas conference play oppression. the first victims of hamas of the palestinian people and as long as palestine -- palestinians are on the pressure of hamas, as long as hamas perkins israel, there is not going to be peace. so we need to make sure in this moment, how moss is taken away their power to inflict damage. >> congressman, before i ask about congressional funding, i want to make it clear for folks. are you calling for a safe passage for palestinians for the gaza strip and pulls out of gaza? >> whatever we'll get the civilians to safety. what israel has told the people of gaza is that the area of operations in the northern part of the gaza strip, it's unusual for a military army to signal
7:25 pm
where they give him to do their operations. but to allow the citizens to flee to safety, if governors. hamas is trying to prevent civilians effectively holding them hostage as human shields. we need to get them out of that northern part of the gaza strip. and ultimately, if there's a way to work with egypt, work with international partners, that would get everyone's benefit, if civilians can get out of harm's way completely. >> it's so dense, the displacement of more than 1 llion people. congressman, before i let you, i want to tu to nbc news reporting. the white house is preparing a supplemental funding request for congress that includes funding for ukraine, israel, taiwan, and u.s. border security. would you support that and to you think with any chance of passing, especially given the chaos and the speakership fight? >> there is a lot of things. first, we need a speaker. the democrats have nominated hakeem jeffries.
7:26 pm
the republicans have the majority. they need to identify speaker they can get behind, or work with a democrat on a bipartisan solution. -- there are a lot of crises. ukraine, does, the threat to taiwan and the tension at the border. we must address all these things and we can't do that as long as congress is seized up with an internal battle, which effectively looks like a complete shutdown of the republican conference. >> congressman brad schneider, thanks for your time tonight. >> thank. you >> still to come, the current conditions and gaza for the people trying to survive and evacuate. ve and evacuate ♪ we have great benefits from principal. so i know i'm taken care of. and not just me. but the ones who matter most to me. ♪♪

7:31 pm
a move that yuan warrants will be impossible to achieve without, quote, devastatin humanitarian consequences. the ap reports hamas tell people to ignore the evacuation order, and families and gaza faced what they fear it was a situation to live or stay with no safe grant to retreat to. hospitals set they could not abandon patients. and as clint porter bins to run out, the u.n. warrants at least 2 million people are at risk of dehydration and contract and water borne diseases from drinking contaminated fluids. jonah meniscus, a broadcaster journalist also who spent time as a senior director of the white house working on national security economic policy. thank you for being here. what are you hearing about the conditions people in gaza are facing in the midst of ongoing israeli airstrikes? >> dire is the best work you can use at this point. all the other ports are probably even more depressing
7:32 pm
because as you know, they the evacuation order has been -- 1 million people trying to get on the north to the south. only one road hitting south that the idf has told people they can't use and it should be safe unfortunately, the latest reporting -- that road has been damaged. even the information is unclear right now. gaza has been without electricity, without internet, for several days now. so even the messages that the israelis are putting out to help give guns are not necessarily getting through to the people who need. it on top of, that hamas is actually a terrorist organization pretending to be a government. and as such, they want this to be a disorder evacuation. for, them that loss of civilian life and stop being a recruiting pull. so you're clearly dealing with that authority on the gaza side that has the basic interests of any civilians at heart.
7:33 pm
it's a terrible situation for everyday people in gaza. egypt south are trying to work a humanitarian corridor and coordination with the u.n. and u.s., but the challenge we see there is that no one really wants to take in 1 million refugees from palestine. because typically, those refugees don't go back to their home state. >> let's talk about what should be done. we heard, i'm not sure if you heard my conversation with the congressman and our previous segment, but i asked him whether safe passage made through gaza for these refugees or safe passage out of gaza in the area entirely. what needs to be done an order for people to have clean drinking water, for hospitals to be able to run their generators? >> what needs to be done is unfortunately something that may not get done given the timeline. and let's be clear, this is not the first time israel or even
7:34 pm
benjamin netanyahu has had a challenge or military engagement with hamas. 2008 was the last time there was a graduation from israel and hamas. that lasted about six months. since then, was the thought of conditions in which we've seen regular people of gaza undergo a complete hardship. a blockade, no food, no water coming. in only with the indiscretion of international forces. those international forces include some allies of the u.s. and israel, like egypt and jordan. you have many countries that have power in the region that have not weighed in and are kind of standing by. there are tunnels that lead from gaza into israel. it is unlikely, given the aftermath of this past weekend and what happened to israeli civilians and the terror they faced, that those tunnels would be allowed to be used for civilians. so the corridor into egypt is a possibility, potentially having some kind of hospital ships or
7:35 pm
some kind of evacuation by sea. but again, none of that gets organized within two or three days, with the time when israel is planning to execute its military mission. >> and for the tunnels, nbc news reporting the u.s. is supplying weapons so that israel can destroy those tunnels and get to the heart of hamas and how they're able to operate underground. israel could've warned thursday, for the more than 1 million civilians living in gaza to move south. but as we've been discussing, they had nowhere to go? texas current available. communication nonexistent. we also have hamas telling people to ignore the order. so really it's impossible, how hard is it to get clear information happening hour by hour? >> think about how we get her evacuation notices. in the regular world, americans, if there's an emergency alert, it's on your phone and you try to correct what you need to do about. that that system is an
7:36 pm
effective because people have not been able to even charge their cell phone for the last week or so. people are hiding out in houses, together as a family. i've seen reporting and stories that families are huddled together, thinking that at least if something happens, the worst happens, they'll be together when it happens. because it's nearly impossible to go and finds -- there are no emotion to services. and because gaza has not been a functioning place, even before that latest hamas terror attacks. for an average civilian, they have given up hope. there are some families trying to get to the south, and eventually that road has also been damaged. there is hospitals without electricity. that has not -- >> nayyera haq, thinks for joining us. under these incredibly difficult circumstances. next, a survivor of the support of her music festival massacre

houses, house by house, to be murdered, to be beheaded, or drag to the gaza strip to go throwing things even worse. it's something we have never seen. i don't think the world has ever seen cruelty at this level, with kids and babies going through things like that. so we are genuinely scared, but we're in this together. we are doing whatever we can to help each other and help protect our country. >> how would you describe the conditions where you are now? >> so, i'm a tech entrepreneur. i spent the last ten years in midland park, selection valley, and i'm now living with my family, we are all slipping together in a bomb shelter. with mattresses on the floor, and that's life now. the kids currently don't have school, because you don't want to leave them alone for a second. you don't know what's coming next. and we're doing shifts to
