the, the, the deadly is rarely military assault on the gaza rolls over into a new year. well, some palestinians still helped for peace against all the content. of course, i hope that this year will be a good one. the good will come to every one, but the war will end soon and we will return to our homes and our country. enough of the tragedy that we are suffering, the most of the destruction that has be following us. we are morning. as the clock struck midnight heralding in 2024 crowds rallied up, forgot in the west bank city of ramallah as a conflict with israel approaches a serv month and dawn vast comes under heavy selling from ukraine on new year's eve nights with at least 4 civilians killed and more than

a dozen wounded in done yet, the slide from moscow. i'm rachel ruble. you're watching r t international. we're covering the top new stories from around the world. but there is little cause for celebration in gaza as the as rarely, military kicked off 2024 with a fresh round of strikes on the enclave. however, at some palestinians are hopeful, they will eventually see peace at some points in the new year. on the let model, how do they hope that the world will end as soon as possible, god willing, and that will return to our homes that were destroyed if there any homes for us or not destroyed. and i hope that my children will be released. now we hope that the new year will come and we will return to our home. we wish for peace of mind and to return to our homes, which review our message to israel is to withdraw from gaza. let me know enough of

the tragedy that we are suffering. they've had enough of the destruction that has be following us. we are morning. they have lived gaza off the map. no, i will show. on the contrary, i hope that this year will be a good one. the good will come to everyone, but the war will end soon and we will return to our homes in our country. we are very optimistic. 1 that the war will end soon, my message to all the arab countries and all the countries of the world. i hopefully will hear me. we want to return to our country in the north and live in peace. this is what we want. even if we only live on the sand. so apart from this staggering child desperate in gaza, international and g o's are also raising the alarm over the mental states of young palestinians trapped inside the war zone. children have been exposed to him, the dramatic episodes we some patients recovering from physical injuries and some having lost the time of the members. the cobra strategies had been taken away from

them. there was no safe place and no sense of security. it messed up. now the suffering of many young dogs as began long before october 7th in 2018 teenager is in the last row, lost his leg after being shot by in his rally sniper. a year later he was able to walk again, things to a prosthetic lim, courtesy and volunteer groups in the us after returning home to gaza. is it into part in helping other amputees there. but his life was ultimately cut short last week when he was killed in an is really our strike. steve, it's supposed to be who help is it in, in the us to show the young and defiant palestinians story with us. and i in 2018. he joins thousands of other palestinian refugees in gaza and protesting peacefully at the gaza borders for the great during the great returned march is a sniper as really soldiers. and that shot him from

a very far distance in his leg. his leg was amputated, organization brought him to the united states, where he had a new procedure, prosthetic legs built for him to enable him to walk and return to school and finish school ended. we hired him to become a field worker and humanitarian aid worker. he was quite interested in photography, so he was a practice. we were training him in that field to support our communications team. and just on christmas day, while him and his family huddled together in fear, i suspect as most palestinians do at night, their home was bombed in demagogues a refugee camp in central guys a by an air strike and his entire family was killed. his body remains under rubble today and there's no way to remove it due to the lack of heavy equipment that can remove large cement blocks. and it's just a terrible, terrible tragic i. tragedy. i knew him very well. he was a good kid. very positive,

very smiling all the time, always ready to um, to do anything you can to help even during the last few weeks when i was in touch with him, he was expressing his desire to do more on the ground there to help his people. mister assessor, they also told us that a total of 6 young palestinians who been treated in the us by his organization have been killed in gaza. he says the american people largely do not support washington's endorsement of the is really military on slot. and there is a sense of irony, i guess i already wouldn't probably be the right word because it doesn't convey the human tragedy behind the lives of these children being destroyed. you know, being killed, being the amputees, having their parents killed, losing their homes, living under these horrific conditions as a result of the policies of the us government. and also then coming to this country and benefiting from the treatment that americans provide them. i guess there that

would be considered ironic, but there's also and probably other more strong verse words it could be used in any case. i think it symbolizes that the american people themselves are maybe not behind this score. they don't believe that killing innocent children in injuring innocent children like as a dean and others is in any way justified. and that when you go, the people who are treating our kids is not the us government fits the american people, their private hospitals, their private doctors, for extending their services on a humanitarian level to help. and i think that that shows a significant disconnect between the policies of the government and the will of the people. we also spoke this morning with a journalist, criminal satari, who's in the southern guys in the city of con eunice, where more is really bombs fell as the new year came into being what do you guys

are husband slipping? i got a no, not today, fucked. a few of the $1000.00 at garza where the bottom is for a continuous and it is a neat, hardly watch continues to advance the accent i backed into the city and before the signature so they can do all the heavy fire week will be in this particular area in east i knew this week was nearby and budman specific to the assembly fire. we could see also the whole new customer fire, which was indicated ongoing and confrontation between 3 and this i needed sufficient bandwidth that comes the group number by listing is as well as the bed under this i've been losing the home, losing the nice. i'm losing the hope that's a little toward it's in the 1st thing, the new year and before the senior document searching for new bombardments that things are not their fault and science. so basically that means and result of the un agency providing aid to palestinian says 1400000 displaced in thousands are now

staying in its facilities. the camps are severely overcrowded, especially in the north of the embattled enclave. refugee sites are struggling with a critical lack of medication. well, most of guys, this hospitals have been forced to shut down in the south. medics are treating many civilians and makes of 10 facilities. there's a one doctor and several of his patients told us for the children of dying from diarrhea with no colors and no beds for us. and where are they supposed to go? there is no treatment, no doctors, no work in hospitals. these rallies bomb clinics and in toys, cities to tell me where people are supposed to go. there was no safe place. and then when we go, they say move further south, north, east. and then they just bomb us there any way you can just get some value. let's, let's move it. and i didn't leave the house except when they had the nearby area with ro kits. they targeted us with 3 guided shells. my children were hate,

all of them were affected. one suffered as soon as brain injury. she stayed in intensive care for 5 days, but was pronounced dead on the 8th of december and i am a freshman. the conditions are extremely difficult because there is no treatments available now. this counselors have thousands of displaced. people in small areas leading to overcrowding. diseases have spread wildly. epidemics have spread insanely. now even more dangerous things are coming soon. the influenza has started to spread. the hospitals are overwhelmed because they have become shelters for the displace among the civilians. forced to flee to southern gaza from the idea of invasion of the north is the family of journalist hums uh salon who has been extensively covering the conflict for us. next 3, bring you an in depth report on homes as very human story. as part of our special coverage of the war's impact on innocent lines.

the we are calling the civilians to leave guys a go selves. some us wants to keep them there as a human shield. this is innocent. civilians are going to be hard to sign on. i see all the civilians. i'm one of the i'm actually afraid that unless i'm leaning over there on i'm afraid i lost my friends with families the oscar, the

goodness of the situation is really dangerous. the situation trying to get this fine, of course, and it's 2 days from the tech team right now it's it's dangerous the

the uses i started looking for car. there was no internet there. even no electricity. people can even charge their phones. fuel hasn't allowed to get together for more than a month, making it impossible for civilians to use vehicles. we're honor evacuating our house. this is my law. this is fine if you find a car looking for a car to find the car this way father. father,

we are to be are doing to this hour because my father is suffering from dialysis on to the hospital or do the dream without it's out of service right now so. so that's why we have to be to the south and this is on our house. the priest that can be suffering here, the search find the findings, electricity finding. and hopefully because we can't find a safe place over there in the south. hundreds of thousands of forced to flee from the laws of god as this came from goes to the laws, you can't take much with we're not allowed to take back. so we take plastic barks as best chair for my father, teacher, lot and woke. so we have to push and we are going to be awesome.

our neighborhoods for the best. so to get out of the north in gaza, they told us to follow some of the dean street. the way father is minor to you. this is my mom. the luggage not allowed to take bags, plastic cries all. this means i've saved it, said you, but they're in disaster. most difficult to be destroyed is towards the churches all false residential neighborhoods that caused this as a law normal. and this is at least finally we read should the area near to a t round about

this form. we have mtv e signature on the portion because the banks are 2 years to film fuel varies our hand up hopefully we cut out arrived safe because of my father condition. the trip was not easy. we faced difficulties at every stage. it was not allowed to continue the journey by car at least point. so we have to use a horse dog cart. we bait someone to cover a distance of about 400 to 500 meters. we have to use this right. the only way we get

to the point where we go into the the full stabilization is the humiliation of my dignity. we all scold for kindness, but the same kinds of humiliation we started our, which is more than 8 kilometers, who so many casualties on the side of the road we sold, did bodies all around us. the soldiers were very close to us with thousands of tags . the soldiers there, those thoughts were trying to make fun of the civilians where displaced from their houses. of the check point is where the soldiers start asking questions. they told

us to raise our hands. we just passed the chick point. my mom, i lost my mom. i did a fire come up my my mom probably cannot find my dad are looking for them. but we really fast the chick point. we think it's safe. there's a lot of people look it's. it was very dangerous. the was stopping people. they asked them to come through and loads of their stuff down the cost because often using my mom i managed to find her my mom over there. we then are right. raise your the count, reset because my father a mom, cogent tool couldn't anymore. then thanks fired all civilians and there was

a huge explosion next to us. they said they are doing this because they would need the people to speed up. they killed many people. we finally found a car after 2 hours of searching. and my parents headed to for safety, there is hospitably my dad can get treatment. when i was certain that the house arrived, safety, i went to the mazda of hospital to get back to work in a way of each other. so i was terrified. interesting people, children's fighting people, women's children, the 24 international human rights groups have appealed to the us secretary of defense, demanding justice for civilians killed by the american military in somalia. we spoke with a relative of some people who died in

a drone striking near mogadishu in 2018 in my system on uh, data. uh, they have flooded on by mistake. uh, she was freezing to uh, near town where my other brother was a resident. so she was there for 15. uh, that's how it happened. uh, it was a charge for our family. um, until now, after 5 years and i have uh, we have a just spoken with those. okay. my sister and her daughter, i have tried to contact them. so for those times and money to an artist with the data base of contact to them, sends the email. we have also contacted with the us embassy initial uh, we, late uh, we have tried to, uh, in good ways to jo,

noticed the markets. so we did a lot of companies uh, took care of the addition, but no one we have up to no commit to this us to even at least to give us, uh, this kind of, of overlay jersey as well. the us has been bombing as long as targets in somalia for years. according to the intercept investigative outlet, the trump white house, authorized or relaxation of the rules of engagement for the 2018 strike. the anonymous american drone operators were reportedly unable to identify their targets . no one has been brought to account for the killing of civilians. and last spring, 7, members of the victims, families asserted that in spite of numerous requests made, the us has not offered them any compensation or even an apology. and in fact, claimed that no civilians were killed in that strike. well,

the undeclared american war on somalian militants has been slipping below the radar of international law for quite some time. over the past 17 years, the us military has carried out more than 300 attacks across the african country. the strikes reportedly left more than that 2100 small ends killed, including 121 civilians bunker to here again says that washington is doing everything possible to avoid accountability for the deaths. i think this over charlotte's military officers, they always try to create to keep their uh, reputation created. so they go on to really uh the fall of over at dice. gift was uh, money. uh so i think they have their own reasons. i'm not sure about that.

but uh for sure, they are doing a lot of work here. uh limited to thursdays. uh, because a lot of people are facing money. john just include the 30000. so does so. it's a good. yeah, we're a good 10 of the fed from them. but to and it's comes for the city and it's, i think, or most to service the, the or over it in here. they didn't do anything. they didn't have to give anything be, is this, i think few, i suggested half of the, just the killer sicilians. but we think that there are hundreds of security stuff. can i please can a to now me warning has been issued by japanese authorities after a powerful 7 plus magnitude earthquake hit the central part of the country. monday morning metre. high waves quickly reached the islands west. coast,

but even larger ones, expected to follow stephanie's tv stations. they canceled new years. they shows, as they switched to, covering the natural disaster. people across the country's west have been told to move to higher ground, a head of a potential tsunami. the tremors have disrupted supplies of electricity, living thousands of homes without power. any motor ways have also been temporarily shots. the loss already say nuclear power plants are operating normally and have not been effected. downplaying fears of another focus she meant like incidence fuel consequence payments. well in the dunbar, celebrations have been marred by dudley ukrainian shelling of the city of dun ask which occurred just minutes into the new year. local officials say at least 4 people have been killed and more than a dozen wounded. archie is remind coast drive reports from the scene. this is a central street here, and the city of them that's as far as targeted by the ukrainian military. shortly
