. >> meanwhile, the palestinian national authority says it won't accept a cease-fire elimination withoutomplete elimination of the siege on gaza. >> the palestinian signs sends demands lifting of the siege, what is proposed is not enough. we need a complete elimination of the siege. this can only be achieved if there is an independent court and an intend package internationally protected and internationally guaranteed that israel cannot interfere with. >> hundreds of thousands of palestinians are still sheltering in u.n.-run schools in gaza. many have no where else to go. their homes have been destroyed. the school year was supposed to start in a week. as jane ferguson reports, that's now been delayed. >> the gaza's girls prep school is home to over 3,000 desperate people. they ran from their homes during israeli bombardments hoping the u.n.-run school would offer protection. over 20028 palestinians are packed into u.n. schools here a new school year was due to start next week, but officials say that has now been delayed. many have no homes to return to. >> i have 11 children, six of the

the united nations has to decide who is the sovereign over gaza. originally, gaza and the west bank were handed over to brazilian authority and gaza is supposed to be under the sovereignty of the palestinianuthority. hamas actually revolted against them, killed their leaders, and hijacked gaza, if you want. from a legal point of view, the united nations have declared the sovereign of gaza is the palestinian authority. and everything concerning gaza must go through him and not through the terrorists. you cannot have both at the same time. you cannot put in the same glass fire and water. either water or fire. now, if the legitimacy will be really declared in the hands of the palestinian authority, all the money, all the means, all the traffic should go through them because even if they will continue to shoot, and by the way, they're a danger for all the arab world, not only for us. you know, the terrorists are destroying the arab world country by country. they destroyed the legitimacy and the integrity of syria, of iraq, of lebanon, of yemen. you know, in libya itself, you have today 1200 groups of terrorists. imagine. it's a catastrophe. and a small group without any responsibility, withou

the palestinian authority despiteses that ultimately those sorts of threats don't carry as much weight as they used to. >> does it have to come from the palestinian authority. there are plenty of other nationsad the world who suggest that israel may have committed war crimes during this conflict. >> i mean, it's possible for his rail to face allegations or -- for israel to face documentation, as seen with the u.n. human rights possession, and we'll potentially see an inquiry take place this time around. when it comes to the i.c.c., it will require the palestinian authority to accede to their own treaty to move things forward. >> looking at what is happening in cairo, it's not looking good. the israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu says israel will not return while the palestinians fire rockets. they say you couldn't impose conditions. we reached a stalemate here. >> i think from where things stand, we have a serious problem for ending the horrific violence. last five weeks or so. binyamin netanyahu, today, declared israel's provision is not finished, saying that the goal was to restore quiet, bring long-term quiet to israel. at the same time he's said that israel will not negotiate unde

the palestinian factions, the palestinian delegation will influid all factions and the fact these negotiations will focus on opening the crossing points, the palestinian authority will play an important role. keep in mind, anderson, there is a national consensus government approved by hamas formed on june 2nd and this consensus government was planning before the israeli on slot on gaza to create arrangements in gaza, for the palestinian authority to return. >> secretary kerry said he wants to build momentum, goodwill on each side. that's difficult to do. the israelis will insist on the demilitarization on gaza as part of a long-term solution. is that a non-starter for hamas and the authority? >> absolutely. any talk of demilitarization, the palestinians said they will accept a demilitarize once israel and the military occupation. the palestinians have the right to defend themselves. they are under occupation. they are the ones subjected to continuous israeli violations and therefore, any talk about demilitarization, maybe israel should offer to take certain goodwill gestures by saying one space is achieved. we will also abandoned our nuclear arsenal and we will also abandon our offensive weapons. once peace is achieved, there is no

palestinian authorities foreign minister is willing to do so and they have clear evidence of war crimes, the i.c.c. headquarters set up to prosecute war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity. it exercises jurisdiction when national authorities are unwilling to prosecute. israeli officials believe an investigation would implicate hamas and the palestinian authority itself. >>> i speak to a senior fellow on palestine studies. what do you think? is it possible that israel could face war time charges at the i.c.c. it never seems to have been held to act for any of its operations before. >> i think that one. main reasons we see the hor ipic offensive against the gaza strip is because there has been no accountability for previous israeli offenses against the palestinians, and israel fools that it has international coverage to do these things. as far as your question is concerned, we need to separate it into two issues. is there a persuasive war chromes and crimes against humanity there the question is an unambiguous yes. the second is will is ril by prosecuted by the criminal court in the hague. it requires conditions that the palestinians sign the statute. that is less likely what we have seen is he's tapsy to sign t

the damage inside gaza is substantial. with an initial reconstruction estimate from the palestinian authority running at least $6 billion. the united nations puts the number of people displaced by the fighting at 520,000 or 20% of the population. and electricity is now being rationed because the bombing campaign hit the only power station. charles stratford in gaza. >> the blackened remains of the only source of electricity inside the gaza strip. egypt and israel are still providing a little bit of power but 1.8 million people now only have four hours of electricity a day. the israeli military hit gaza's infrastructure hard. >> we pleaded four times with the israeli army not to target us. we coordinated with the united nations in gaza. they ignored us. our early calculations put repair costs at around 10 to $15 million. >> the palestinian deputy prime minister says rebuilding gaza's infrastructure and thousands of destroyed homes will cost around $6 billion and that's just an initial estimate. israel says from the very beginning that it was only going to target hamas military targets. i'm standing on the main road from gaza city on the nor

palestinian delegation that will include all factions. and the fact that these negotiations will focus on opening the crossing points, the palestinian authority will play an important role. keep in mind, anderson, there is a nationalsensus government that has been approved by fatah and hamas was formed on june 2. and this consensus government was planning before the israeli onslaught on gaza to create arrangements in gaza for the palestinian authority to return to the gaza strip. >> secretary kerry has said that he wants to try to build some momentum, some good will on each side. obviously that's an extraordinarily different difficult thing to do. the israelis have said they will insist on the complete demilitarization of gaza as part of a long-term solution. is that a non-starter for hamas, a non-starter for the palestinian authority? >> absolutely. any talk of demilitarization, the palestinians have said repeatedly that they will accept the demilitarized state once israel ends its military occupation. the palestinians have the right to defend themselves. they are the ones who are under occupation, not the israelis. they are the ones who are subjected to continuous israeli violations. and therefore, any talk abou

the palestinian authority is allowed back into gaza. >> how do you think that, i don't know if you call it a power struggle it is within kind of the palestinian authority and the national negotiator? who is israel negotiating with here? is it the pal spinauthority? is it mahmoud abbas or is it the leaders of hamas? >> it is a delegation that has been put together under the authority of president abbas, under the authority of the unity government, which is going to be a technocratic government. so it is really a delegation that is headed by president abbas, as head of the plo, and as head of the palestinian authority, and that's how it should be. >> it is a little striking, though, some are suggesting that secretary kerry and the obama administration have been sidelined when it comes to these talks in cairo. the president said john kerry has been in communication constantly, but you've seen his efforts tried and failed absolutely over the past few weeks. do you think the u.s. has been sidelined here? >> no, not at all. precisely because of all the time secretary kerry has spent with the two sides, the iz resrs and palestinians in an effort to negotiate the peace, he is

s top diplomat and the head of the united nations both working, every single person who has influence in this, not just hamas and israel. also, the palestinian authority also other countries in the region that have leverage. despite despite all of those efforts, they finally, did, after failed talks in cairo and in paris, both men went back to the united states to their basis. they then did manage to get the 72-hour ceasefire in place. it was a breakthrough. i was not a lasting deal to this. but it was a break through the fact they managed to get both sides to agree. it's really looking like it is broken down for now. >> james bays, thank you. we will join you in the rest of the day. let's cross over back to the ongoing scenario, the shelling near you. but, also, the issue that we seem to have now from the israeli officials that a soldier may have been captured. >> could have precipited the violence that we have seen in the rafah area. >> reporter: that's right and our sources on the ground in v rafah are confirming that death toll at 40 not that long ago has now shot up to 70. we are also hearing that the hospital in rafah isn't just inundated with c

the palestinian national consensus government announced on june 2nd instead of undermining it, we would have been able to pursue certain political steps with hamas to spread the rule of the palestinian authority to the gaza strip and hopefully bring hamas onboard for a political resolution to the conflict with israel. >> well, if you're in israel's shoes, though, and you are bringing on a partner that hamas believes israel does not have a -- basically have a right to exist, how -- why shouldn't israel react the way it reacted? >> you know, it's interesting. everybody asking palestinian faction to recognize the so-called conditions. why not ask the israeli government, the current israeli government to accept this conditions. this current israeli government does not abide by its previous agreements with the plo, continues to violate them. does not recognize the right of the palestinian people to an independent state. yes, they say it in public, but in effect what they are doing on the ground is undermining, preventing the palestinians from establishing their state. so maybe the question should be directed to this current israeli government. >> let me ask you this. do you think that president ab

commitment that they made to the united nations and the united states, the egyptians and others who worked to arrange this cease-fire including turkey and qatar and the palestinian authority. israelis officials say there have been attacks from hamas on israeli forces inside gaza, that rockets have been fired from gaza into southern israel, mortar shells as well. it does not look good. that's what one israeli official just said to me. now, hamas, on the other hand, they accuse israel of breaking the cease-fire. they say that israeli troops fired on palestinians in rafa, the southern part of gaza and that 40 people were killed, so they are accusing the israelis of breaking the cease-fire. israel is accusing hamas of breaking the cease-fire. the cease-fire has supposedly been in business for a few hours but it does not look like a cease-fire right now. i assume diplomats and u.s. officials and secretary of state kerry, ban ki-moon and the u.n. secretary-general, they were the ones who announced this cease-fire. i assume they are working feverishly to see what they can do, but as of now, chris and kate, it does not look very good. >> a couple of follow-ups. when you have isra

the cease-fire broke down late monday, the palestinian authorities say more than 70 palestinians have been killed and on the israeli side two israelis wounded since the cease-fire broke down. the united nationshat more than 70% of the casualties on the palestinian side have been civilians. in terms of what the impact of that gaza rocket fire is having on daily life in israel. we have had word from the israel futbol association, the soccer season is suspended. alerts at the international airport, hamas threatened to target that airport with rocket fire. last month, u.s. airlines stopped flying in for a certain amount of time. that caused huge international embarrassment from israel. they are trying to stop a repeat of that so far. around the corner, starting in september, in israel and gaza, the start of the school year could be disrupted by the continuing of this war. christine? >> thanks so much, karl penhaul in jerusalem. >>> a california patient being tested for ebola does not have the disease there. the unidentified patient showing symptoms had been kept in isolation in a hospital in sacramento. two americans who contracted the disease, dr. kent brantly and nancy writebol have been relea

national interest right. i refuse to spay a visit to israel so long as the occupation of palestinian authorities remained andi adhere to the principles of peace process, sponsoring the peace talks between west bank and gaza strip ja. i never hesitated to supply for to the palestinians in gaza strip ja. i stad up to the attempts to threaten the national security through the strip. i worked and preserved peace. i didn't gamble the lives of egyptians in uncalculating adventures. meantime, was keen on developing the egyptian armed force, gear, weaponry and training to continue and remain the defending guardian and the shield protecting the homeland and the sovereignty of egypt, along with peace. since day one i have encountered the challenge of terrorism, where i fought a fierce battle, senior to the one i am fighting now. egypt in its war against terrorism in the '80s, and '90s, won victory. and by the grace of god and the support of our people, with leadership, we will live in the face of that terrorism today. we are also required to face a higher and bigger challenge. it is the rebuilding of deteriorating inf

the other severely damaged. no deaths were reported. israel fired nonexplosive missiles to warn residents of what was coming. >> we're really starting to see the palestinian authority now talking about going it alone, going to the united nationsn. if that happens they'll make step that is israel doesn't want them to make, talking about human rights abuses. so, the time is ticking on john kerry and the united states being able to bring these sides together. if they don't, palestinians are going to go it alone. not good news for america. not good news for israel. >>> a full day of tributes as thousands came together to say good-bye to michael brown. the 18-year-old was laid to rest after an emotional funeral service in st. louis. honoring his father's wishes, protesters stayed off the streets as the focus remained on the life of the young man kill bid police two weeks ago. reverend al sharpton said there must be justice for brown's death and it should serve as a wake-up call to the country. >> no community in america would tolerate an 18-year-old boy laying in the street 4 1/2 hours and we're not going to tolerate it either. whatever happened, the value of this boy's life must be answered by somebody. michael brown does not wan
