the. war. supporters of. you on this program are. reeling from

a school shooting that killed at least 9 people including 7 children. and she told us to run. into a very high evening program here on national. across the border. between israel and gaza is now. israeli bombing raids have killed at least 53 palestinians and 6 israelis have died in rocket strikes since monday evening and the palestinian group has warned. the deaths of several of its top.

well at the moment there are several hot spokes in the conflict of the hot spots such as gaza jerusalem tel aviv and logged the latter has been the focus of some of the fiercest fighting leading the israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu to

declare a state of emergency in that city. in this mixed arab and jewish town 3 synagogues numerous shops were reportedly told. by the arab community broke out some residents reporters in their homes on petrol bombs were thrown through their windows local mayor has likened the situation to that of a civil war this is the 1st time emergency powers have been used against the arab community in israel since the end of the military administration in 1966 early on wednesday morning a rocket fell in love with killing a man and a child. riots have also gripped jerusalem for a 5th day in a row this is the worst on the rest of the city has seen india's. 2 confrontation between palestinians and israeli

police 1st began over restricted access to a key holy site during the month of ramadan as well as the possible eviction of palestinians from their homes in the in east jerusalem more than a 1000 palestinians have been injured in the past few days in that part of the city . well meanwhile hamas has fired hundreds of rockets towards televisa and its suburbs israel in retaliation has continued to pound the gaza strip with missile strikes targeting police and security installations. half. bad. all right let's get some more details on this right now crossing live to our middle

east senior correspondent paula who is now in near tel aviv paula bring us up to speed what is the latest now where you are. well the situation remains tense we are hearing from both the israelis and hamas that neither side is prepared to later there are also warnings coming across that they will be it so that rocket attacks on israel and israel has issued an alert that among the locations it plans to strike in gaza in the coming hours includes in media building where r.t. has been housed in the past now the building is called the shall work building and it comprises some sistine saws when i visited gaza we had our office in this building and although the building has been hit by israeli missiles 3 times usually those missiles only strike the top 2 floors now we hearing that these raids planned to demolish the entire building now we get the information from the doorman of the building who says he was contacted by the israeli side to warn people to

evacuate the building and that obviously is one of the ways that israel plans to minimize the the the civilian count as well obviously is targeting that building because amongst the t.v.'s there is the hamas t.v. that it says is propagating hate and encouraging the rocket attacks against israel here in israel there has been sirens in the morning there is a lot of noise behind me at the current moma. but i don't think it's that no it doesn't sound like a silent but everybody is on standby for silence to be heard there are to at latest count 6 israelis who has been killed 5 of them are civilians and one of them is a soldier we are hearing from the palestinian health ministry that some 50 people have been killed many of them are children and at the same time hundreds of palestinians have been injured. 2 of. my kids were killed both of them

were very young one was 11 and the other was 7 years old playing yeah they were playing only 30 meters away from me my nephews were playing with them too and a young guy called who was getting married in a few days they were playing and i was calling them they were looking at me when suddenly i saw a missile landed right in the middle of them with god my heart is broken i lost my heart along with my children god help me under some of the churches didn't have those i was with my brothers and there was an israeli bomb i think it was actually shell when i saw the horrible scene of my brothers lying around i couldn't take it it was like a massacre so many people were coming to see what happened and there were no ambulances or medical aid at the scene so we can 1st arbonne i'm shocked i can't believe it our children who were playing in front of our house peacefully they were hit by a bomb after we heard it we rushed outside to find the children lying on the ground please stop killing our kids for god's sake what would they do if it was their

children enough is enough they've done enough to us we're not resistance fighters or militia we're not killing anybody we're a peaceful citizen standing in front of our houses peaceful people who did not carry guns knives or weapons were they doing this to us now the rockets being fired from gaza have hit as far as where i am in the same tough the country overnight people in tel aviv and surrounding neighborhoods slipped in bunkers and in sheltered room. the sirens last sounded at 3 o'clock this morning when there was a mass of a rash among the rockets that hit was one rocket that was intercepted by the iron dome anti missile system over the city of give a tie in which is just outside tel aviv now some of that shrapnel fell on a house injuring 4 people another city that was hit also not far from tel aviv is holy lawn there a bus was struck the rocket hit the bus and destroyed

a lot of the surrounding officers i arrived on the scene some half an hour later. i'm just outside the israeli city of tel aviv in a town called whole lawn where a short time ago a rocket landed and as you can see there is glass on the floor there is a bit of destruction the whole area has been closed off by the israeli police now 3 people were injured at this location including a 5 year old child it was part of a barrage of some $130.00 rockets fired by her mess and it says it was in retaliation for earlier israeli is strikes so you can see here the glass has shattered on and number of businesses that line this road now this is exactly where the bulk of the rocket landed. now look at these images are similar to what we saw

during the last israel had mass consultation back in 2014 but one new thing that has developed is that israeli arabs have taken up the cause and we've been witnessing something that's relatively new for israel and that's arab citizens taking to the streets there has been violent clashes in a number of cities and towns including be a shift in the south echoing in the north and large which is about a 15 minute drive from tel aviv we've just heard that a curfew has been imposed on large the army and the police are. coating the streets there and that is to try and prevent any fear that is still ation of violence a mass has twice and that it will resume it's a strikes in the coming hours so the israeli authorities have urged people to remain indoors and way they can sleep in bomb shelters tonight and we will continue checking in with you throughout the evening as paula sleep thank you. well the israeli army says its iron dome and team it's all system has so far managed to

intercept roughly 90 percent of incoming rockets but with hamas warning of a more intense barash to come it's feared many could slip through those defenses i spoke with our producer in tel aviv a pack of weave through a stop with 2 you rounds of attacks all the television drama hamas that of course follows hamas is to. fire a garage of rockets into the israeli territory is on monday and 1st there were only . southern state is on the border with gaza like ashkelon ashdod and several why don't you state. the entire country came under fire and i have this. air which is called red alert so it shows you exactly where the rockets landed and and imagine this every 2 minutes as far as a rocket is being fired into the israeli territory so it's all over the place and

on tuesday night prime minister benjamin netanyahu vollard a fierce response to the attacks but so did hamas take a listen. hamas on the islamic jihad have paid and will pay a very heavy price for their aggression. israel wants to escalate we are ready for it and if it wants to stop we are also ready if they want to release their grip over jerusalem we are ready. it follows and marcus collation between israel and the palestinians following the decision by the israeli government palestinians from the shaved neighborhood in is jerusalem on a drill sense then clashes have been the routes and here and there mainly focused on temple mount and a lax a compound in jerusalem since then however they spilled into this confrontation between israel and hamas on tuesday night i was caught up in the city away from my

children away from my shelter and i was walking along the street and i was actually dragged into the shelter by a passer by when the siren goes off it's just the sound is overwhelming and it's all over the place and really main idea and this is what they tell you is not to rush not to run for shelter because this is how you can actually enjoy yourself because when people panic they sat running and they fall they stumble and that's how they get injured so you have to proceed quickly but calmly. in the 90 seconds after you heard the siren go off and you have to stay in the shelter for about 10 minutes on tuesday night there was a barrage of attacks it was common on and on and on and it was like 6 attacks in 30 minutes so when i left you know you have this pinch of. panic in your god and

it's it's really terrifying the 2nd attack happened on 3 am and i was home i will sleep. a good friend is that we have a shelter room in our apartment i met my builder and i just want to show you what a shelter room looks like follow me. if you can see when it cold to get into the building but not today the door is open so that anyone who is outside during the attack can get into the building and into the shelter on. this is that this is the door it's massive it's own it has several locks here and this is you can see also it's normally locked and all the residents have the keys because it used as storage but again this is

a look at the mess at the door so let's go inside this is the room you can see it's our biggest like 10 to 12 square meters and it's been used as i said has been use a storage for stuff from the residence so what would have here is we have a window and it's not like normal window look at this there is this curtain on. which closes when the siren goes off so you close the curtain you close the window. and that's it then you close the door and there are 2 a c. these for the air i'm lucky because i have a shelter room in my own a perp meant but those who don't come downstairs when the siren goes off and stay here until it's safe again people bring the emergency birds with water snacks power banks and other stuff they might need in case they have to stay inside for

a long time so this is this is what it's been like it's scary. today it's a beautiful day people go around. you know like as normal as they can but still talking council children stay home and people try to keep ask loath to hold as they can in case they need to go into the shelter quickly because there is this feeling of an imminent attack and we don't know what's going to happen. in the evening. but during tuesday's israeli airstrikes 2 residential tower blocks were just razed to the ground a local correspondent of the army on the guardian sent us this report from the scene. this is a 2nd high rise in gaza city that was destroyed by israeli warplanes in in yesterday's attacks by the israeli warplanes on the gaza strip this building contained offices 4 institutions for some organizations including the

islamist ruling the mass party and gaza and now israel of this is a threatening to destroy more buildings a number of buildings have been reported to have been warned against eminent destruction by the israeli army and now the people of gaza are fearing more fierce and tough attacks by the israelis are going to take it place sooner or shortly so the situation here is very tense and very complicated to the extent that the people here in isted of observing the occasion of the evil thoughts are following the holy month of ramadan are going actually in actual terms to observe more and this is likely by the way more attacks by the israelis war exchange of fire in gaza and israel this is indicated

by the fact that palestinians and israelis have not yet reached any kind of a cease fire deal or restoring calm to the territory even there was an intervention by international parties and by mainly by the neighboring egypt by egyptian officials and still both parties are not talking to troops but only only the guns are the ones whose voices are very loud at this very particular moment. palestinian life's. well the palestinian solidarity rallies are being held in various parts of the world including new york leading to scuffles with israel support his arrest on several injuries i'm rick arrests were reported excuse me meanwhile the united nations security council has held an emergency closed door meeting in new york on

the conflict correspondent caleb mufon has details as the situation with israel and palestine is intensifying we have a meeting taking place behind closed doors of the u.n. security council now while the meeting is behind closed doors we don't know what's being said many of the member states and their representatives have spoken very critically of israel meanwhile on the streets of many countries we have clashes between supporters of israel and supporters of palestine this is happened here in new york. i 6. was. really. great. i. think.

that was. now the usa has grabbed headlines by not taking a clear side in the conflict but instead calling on both sides to engage in a safe in of hostilities we call for restraints and for calm israel has the right to defend itself and to respond to rocket attacks the palestinian people also have the right to safety and security justice is released you now this balanced approach being put forward by the united states is certainly not welcomed by israel the usa is a longtime ally it is impossible to put in the same message statements by israeli. who khufu com alongside instigates is and terrorist organizations that launch missiles and rockets donald trump has been mocking joe biden on twitter and saying that the reason for these events is that his strategy for dealing with the middle east was a band and that the biden administration is essentially revealing it has no clear

strategy for dealing with the israel palestine conflict at this point people are looking at the biden administration questions are being raised about whether or not the usa is really a faithful ally of israel other questions are being raised about whether or not the biden administration has a clear outlook toward the middle east or a clear strategy to implement these events. it is a day of mourning in the russian republic of touch as its capital comes to terms with a horrific mass shooting at a local school and 9 people were killed most of them kids will more than 20 others were injured at the site of the tragedy has become a makeshift memorial with thousands of locals commemorating those lost here's a quick timeline of how the shocking events unfolded.

let's look for the clip key i was in the close in the 2nd floor we heard bangs that sounded like explosions 1st because the classroom doors and not let the children get near the windows we told them to sit down along the walls and try to calm them down to live in the studio a man with a gun ran into the classroom and started shooting people who didn't shelter anything but before he did this but heard an explosion right under our classroom so that our teacher told us to hide under the desks all the little person might it was a must last moment we heard a shot and at 1st we just thought that it was furniture being smashed that the shooting came closer the door was ajar and i saw that the man had a fall on the teacher began to hold the door shut we did not have a key and she told us to run we were on the 1st floor one window was open and we all rushed to it will fall in the shower but no one was hurt badly there were no deaths.

to him feel like this you know new zealand. body. i thought why didn't somebody like. him. so you don't think i mean i don't know what the law.

is he says he's a little political when you are sam julian says emergency crews and fire trucks are at the site late so i sort of teach covered in blood getting pulled out of school and about 4 children being carried away. the 19 year old gunman arrested in the school massacre has appeared in court and cousin for a pretrial hearing he has pled guilty and will remain in custody of people in the courts at the killer's showed no signs of emotion when giving testimony well meantime a plane carrying several survivors of the school shooting has just landed here in moscow they've been brought over to the capital for emergency medical care that

might have guns d.s. has been following the events from cazan he reports now from the hospital in the city treating the injured. first those patients deemed to be in severe condition of being evacuated medivac to moscow to hospitals in more schools more specialized the treatment of a combat injuries in children number of the number of the children that are here have serious wounds you know shortcut moves through the chest one boy out of slot. the clinical death during the night his heart stopped and he had to be reanimated by by starting the the shooter targeted him shot in multiple times in the chest all vital organs of the boy lost 3 liters of blood the doctors here they gave a press conference and they explained to us the severity of the conditions of those that are here 20 children all 3 adults in separate hospitals and how their injuries

are being treated. when children were admitted to hospital we made it recreated a multi-unit crew consisting of trauma toll just surgeons and of course intensive care workers who in fact were working simultaneously with the patients or children who were in the intensive care unit receive surgery and in addition almost all children with moderate injuries also had surgery we also know many of the parents many of the relatives of the kids also here obviously this is an incredibly trying time for them. desperate we know of one mother who had to be unfortunately medicated to helpless zeal for the situation for which she was oddly unprepared i believe parents could be prepared for something like this. in the very 1st minutes when children were coming to us psycho's just instantly stepped in they're still working beside psychologists or psychiatrists working with parents and of

course all children also receive psychological assistance what happened in that ha . it was truly horrendous was beyond words and the squabble but we've learned from the traumas that the kids that are here what exactly happened some of them were short and then they invest gratian and patrick tried to jump out of windows when there were many kids here who have both country and trauma from the full from jumping out of the 3rd story windows broken back and legs broken hips. other kids to jump through through glass they have lacerations to their faces to their bodies i truly read this injuries of records of amounts of people thousands and thousands of people inside who went to blood donation centers them to give blood whole manner of reasons from it's the right thing to do to hope that their plasma could save one of those kids' lives. i'm going to be can do a lot for the 1st time i took

a day off on purpose and came here to help all those children in need. i've been constant blood donor and yesterday's attack is yet more proof that it's important and besides this is my duty. not the 1st time i'm giving my blood and today i'm here because of the yesterday's incident it overwhelmed me and i just want my luck to help someone. today officially is a day of mourning in cars out in throughout even the night thousands and thousands of people went to pay their respects the cube silently the wait to be let through to the school to all the memorials that have been set up that they lay flowers and put down to always pérez pay their respects to all those who lost their lives in the tragedy yesterday but also to offer prayers for those who are still alive but many who are still fighting for their lives in critical condition in hospital also

to pay their respects to the to the teachers who behaved by all accounts moved admirably in the face of such catastrophe when disaster struck as the shooter went on his rampage the headmistress went on to the loudspeaker system shouting for all the teachers the local doors to barricade themselves in classrooms to open the doors for no one and to put the kids to line them up huddled them down behind desks near the walls away from the windows and banged on doors we've learned she walked down the corridors demanding to be let in there a video showing teachers standing by the doors blocking the entrance with their own bodies and one of those teachers interviewed a can out of a paid with her life when the gunman burstein apparently according to witnesses shot her twice and then turned his gun on the kids that was where the worst of the massacre took place in a year 8 classroom she was an english teacher at my last post on instagram was how

happy she was with her life the city bid farewell to her today. she was a great student very kind very ambitious and responsible she's been heading towards this child for all her life it was short but still the ultimate goal was this child and this is a big loss for a university because are not so many people like who want this job so badly and want to educate on children. the launch and ovary and she was very kind and she always covered up for us because we were a very noisy and difficult class were really means behaved and the teacher spoke badly about us but she always helped us she was not strict she even couldn't really shout at anybody because. absolutely devastated community is grief stricken you know the city's heart has been has been shattered but aside from grief terrible grief there is also agger people want to demote them onto the mill how this happened how this was.
