4:08 pm
saw it close to me actually is a situation that we. unfortunately used to see. it to 1st time that it was so close to me i leave like 7 minutes from here i came exactly when i heard the news now the rocket struck over there and we understand that it hit the building it's not clear to us whether the person who died was next to the car that is completely gone up in flames or was in the building itself the police are making an effort to push all of us out of the area they said they are concerned that they could be more rockets any moment. now i was a short distance from here when this happened and there were a number of explosions in the sky that was as the iron dome anti-missile defense system intersected the rockets there were at least about 6 explosions that i counted so the situation here suki tends to go the way people in our town have
4:09 pm
reacted to the slightest showing rob the car if it was a long paris people there would have panicked we already used to this but it still hurts it's also shit but people have gone to the synagogue and when they came back they saw they had no home anymore it's hard but we're strong and we're giving our support to the government and the army this is part of a barrage of rockets that have passed since into israel on saturday afternoon it says that it is in retaliation for a strike that killed a family of 10 now he has been silenced also sounding in the south of the country in the border communities of ashkelon and ashdod we've heard from the israeli army that since friday they have fired or they have actually struck some 20 could launches in gaza as you can see this corner shop has been completely destroyed the mannequins are lying down we have been pushed back by the police but there's glass everywhere this is a residential areas so the only people who would have been here on
4:10 pm
a saturday afternoon are people who live in the area a few of the shops were open but most of them have been closed because of the rocket barrages that have been coming in from gaza today's be fixed straight they are fighting at this point in time the rockets coming in from gaza and the israeli airstrikes on to gaza don't show any sign of letting up policia our team. let's go live to israel and welcome to the program done for from a middle east in the fence and also a fellow of the jewish people policy institute you're welcome to the program israel as we've just been seeing in our piece you might have heard it is being bombarded by missiles how has life changed there is this week. it's frankly terrifying i mean we try to be resilient and we try to keep calm especially for the sake of our children but to over 2000 rockets or missiles have rained down from
4:11 pm
hamas in just a matter of days i'm lucky to be slightly further to the north so i have to grab my family including in the middle of the night out of the my children out of their beds at 3 in the morning and run to our bomb shelter thankfully we're a little farther away so we have a minute but those nearer to gaza have maybe 102030 seconds not everyone has bomb shelters and so work the hardest part is telling my children. why we have missiles falling on us and other than the hatred from hamas it's. instigated this i have nothing else to say to them because israel left gaza in 2005 we have left gaza with every last settlement soldier in gaza and we wish them well to develop their own life and develop their own. territory there and have autonomy and they are only trying to get into a bastion of terrorism and hatred against us how must reportedly and once the cease
4:12 pm
fire from 10 pm to midnight but only for television is that done a concession to ease tensions or is a further barrage expected after the 2 think it's hard to say they don't often keep their word even when they do agree to ceasefires clearly the bring pressure the bring stress to the israeli military strikes on hamas targets in gaza are having an effect. it's hard to know because they don't often talk to the international criminal court has won both sides they may be subject to investigation do you think that that will affect israel their actions in any way and perhaps scale back its bombardment of gaza if i'm asked does the same with its missiles. well 1st it's important to say you know i've been in the situation room is where decisions are made in the idea of before if hamas stops firing rockets israel will stop countering we've military attacks in the i.d.f. decision making about which targets to strike and when we take into consideration
4:13 pm
of international law we take into moral considerations of where there are civilians and we only strike those if they are of supreme military value it's important to note that hamas targets civilian targets israel targets only military targets what do you see it then to people who have said not just in this conflict but before that some of the targets they have hit areas where there's a large media presence such as today al-jazeera where they're associated press and . factor out all do you think in any of these strikes. hamas hides its military assets inside of civilian areas this building that you're talking about housed the hamas military intelligence search and development and they housed in a building which they knew they do it symbolically in order to protect themselves because the idea of thinks very carefully what the idea of does is it announces to
4:14 pm
all civilians were 2 hours before you must get out of this area because we need to destroy this target i don't see hamas announcing to the many cities and villages across israel to which along rockets that it's going to be put down it's almost as targeting civilians but as you well know the proportionality the strength that he the expertise is heavily on the side of israel so knowing their intelligence would know that there are children there perhaps to use those decoys for whatever reason but children are dying when thought in mind is is this barrage from israel i know i completely understand what you're saying its response to missiles but is it a way out of trying to insure against a does not do this again and if that is the case it hasn't worked before so will it not just lead to a further spiral of violence done to yours it's not going to make a blind bit of difference is a $22.00 people who are dying. it's important to note israel strikes are not out of
4:15 pm
. revenge or anything of the sort they are meant to rollback hamas his military capabilities and so that hamas both cannot takes time for hamas to build up its military capabilities again and that it thinks twice before it unleashes a its capabilities it's important to know if israel didn't start this conflict with hamas yes there were internal tensions with east within east jerusalem and with israel's arab minority that is not legitimate 2000 rockets coming out of gaza because we left gaza in 2005 we need to talk about disproportionate not use of force but intentions israel's intentions are defensive amasses intentions are often says if we had time i would like to actually get in more of a day as you're saying the domestic issues because that does seem to be a bigger problems coming within israel between our legs and jews there which i'm
4:16 pm
