2:07 am
batch family. home in the us. israel has used a policy of issuing warnings in some cases before making its targeting warnings either via s.m.s. via cools in some cases leaflets but often roofs knocking that is issuing warning drone strikes on the roof of the building before targeting it however in this case there was no warning of any kind and residents are adamant that israel must have known that over fifty people were in this area when it struck the way that was perpetrated it's a variation of basic principles of international attention was very clear on this there should be principles to be preserved probably should have a t.
2:08 am
discrimination and humility nothing of these procedures have been respected by the israeli army. i asked the government spokesperson whether the targeting was justified given that israel's at war with hamas and is known to target the police everybody knows that the police is a seven work and it's helping the people of service for the people who wasn't actually since this conflict began last year the health ministry counts eleven such incidents when family homes have been targeted with inhabitants inside israel's november two thousand and twelve operation did not see an israeli ground invasion it ended after eight days with a ceasefire but it did not fully eradicate the masses rocket capability now israel's says it is a must for israel to stop all rocket fire from gaza and that they don't know how long the campaign will continue given the daily loss felt by palestinian civilians
2:09 am
here people fear how this conflict will evolve harry fear r.t. . meanwhile egypt and jordan continue to send aid to gaza while also opening their hospitals those palestinians injured in the attacks we spoke to hani alba sousse from the islamic university of gaza who believes that civilian fatalities could have been avoided if israel wanted. the images that we see on t.v. screens are prove that basically it is when it is targeting palestinian civilians and i cannot really understand how israel can justify that if the israelis wanted to hurt militant or those who are responsible for the loss of rockets against israeli thousand villages they are able to basically do that without their injuring civilians these cries must be investigated by the international community because they are not that is when is violating international humanitarian law. but at the same time israel claims that more than eight hundred rockets have been fired by
2:10 am
hamas into the offensive began a week ago this video was released by masses military. brigades and shows domestically produced rockets being fired at television israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu claims he will use any means necessary to stop them and amid growing international calls for a cease fire the country vamp's up its preparations for a possible ground invasion artie's paula slay is in television to find out how israelis and selves see the offensive. most israelis support the military strikes of a gaza seeing it as a legitimate response to defend the country's borders but at the same time people here are afraid to be anti missile defense system intercepts around ninety percent of rockets it's that ten percent that remains that has seen some never misses who could accept to receive myside just like this without doing the thing it's not possible i think very sad really very sad that. it don't need this kind of
2:11 am
lives and we just care about there with being. i just i don't know how to feel about it israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has certainly scored political points with this military offensive even the opposition inside his unity government supports the military strikes although they are calling for a diplomatic solution there is of course a radical voice inside israeli society who now wants to see all gazans killed they will be the ones at the forefront of calling for a ground offensive i hope so that now they're going to do defy them but find instead about entering those three i being that they should do something really radical because they being there in the they giving them like too much time like they have the whole time to say more. but most israelis make the distinction between hamas that rules gaza and the ordinary civilians who live there. i think
2:12 am
there also needs to be an opening or some kind of hope for the palestinian residents when all of this is over because if at the end we're back to square one it means we didn't do much meanwhile israel's aerial strikes continue and people here live in fear of the next rocket fire policy r t tel aviv. israel's offensive has caused public outrage across the globe with mass rallies being held in the u.k. australia and france the protests were peaceful for the most part however a pro palestinian demonstration in paris turned violent crowds attacked two synagogues there traveling around a hundred people inside the french prime minister condemned the attacks and called the protesters actions unacceptable. also closely following all the updates around the conflict in r.t. dot com you can find the latest pictures videos and witness accounts. coming up later in the program after a short break president putin picks up the world cup relay from brazil with the
