that we fight i mention the 800 rockets that have been fired into israel almost 500 of the rockets have landed inside gaza and have killed numerous people from inside gaza and we believe women and children have been killed by these rockets and therefore you know we need to understand what's going on in addition to that some us are deliberately posting their rockets deliberately putting their control centers inside buildings in residential areas they know that we will do everything we possibly can in order to avoid civilian casualties and we are doing everything we can to avoid civilian casualties in the past vast majority of those killed some us terrorist on the other side hamas are doing everything they can in order to maximize the number of casualties on the civilian side from israel we only saw yesterday an 87 year old woman was killed we saw a 5 year old boy sleeping in his bed that was killed by a hamas rocket and the reality is that this is who we're dealing with this is what they're who they are and just pick up on a point that you said you said that garza has to rid itself of ho

rockets have been fired from gaza towards. on television that has some brigades that claim it claimed responsibility for the for the in response to the destruction of an idea building nawa there are more rockets have been fired just. looks like there were longer range rockets because they're flying higher than the short range we just learned that aliens are have warned also that they will destroy another the tower which is just the one next behind us that had one behind us that people have evacuated to evacuate the building in this building we know about lots of media grooves working there and newspapers t.v.'s and other media groups so far the case is that is even islamic jihad joined some brigades and also said that they have fired rockets towards tel of eve this is still the beginning as they said we are expecting more more of a wider range of violence of scale ation we are expecting more buildings that could be bring down like the one. as we learned that even the one behind us also will be will be destroyed. still there is

you see in that appears to that several rockets actually. made impact and one of the rockets made impact in a residential building in the gun that's just next to tel aviv run person died and then a civilian died from from that rocket strike but of course also rocket barrages continued throughout you know in the morning and even now you know we get there getting constant alerts for this in the south surrounding the gaza strip and the south and south and cities. are u.s. envoy is there now to meet with israeli and palestinian leaders there is a u.n. security council meeting tomorrow can international efforts to get this conflict back under control. well this is says still to see i mean this this conflict has again in the past i was reporting on it has intensified again it's a 6 days now and at the same time you know them or more reports as well that we need and that is ready media and in the arab media that mediation efforts underway. you know mediation is usually being done by egypt by qatar by the united nations other activists they have in

we saw a barrage of rockets more than $100.00 rockets at a time so we realize that the situation is serious and the threats of the communists is ongoing if we're looking ahead over the next few days security assessments are being made let's get the latest on the situation in gaza we are looking at a live shot that it does look relatively calm but let's get the picture on the ground we can speak to you al jazeera is gaza and produces half what joins us on the phone please talk us through the very latest had there been more airstrikes in the last half an hour or so. yes to say in the last out of there were 2 very latest story one of them had. bought motors according to local witnesses in the month of gaza strip. mothers have been killed in this attack sit next to a talk in gaza city also there was another israeli airstrike that witnesses said that was a car a woman and 2 children was in the city pretty moderate civilian killed the minister of will raise. the number of casualties 40 to 44 people killed. including of course 5 women 50 children the number of injured people also increased

the short range rockets firing never stop since yesterday the palestinian. groups have been firing towards southern is that which is in the. range of fire let's say but what happened 5 minutes ago is that some brigades for the 1st time they fired rockets towards is that aisle and response to this section of the residential building so we said that the kaesong brigade said that is that of course that it lines and return we will also. tell of you mix just an issue and we are expecting more rockets to be fired to work. even if it could be extended to other areas so tel aviv is one of the areas that could be part. of the targets of the policy in fighting but it is not the last i know that al jazeera has staff on the ground among the rubble of that not fallen building the israeli military had given advance warning that it was a target and told residents to leave so we know if there's been any casualties in that destruction of that building. specifically in this. town most of the people either who lived in the building or the living next to the building they evacu

if we don't count israel's firing rockets... if we don't count israel's siege _ firing rockets...'t count israel's siege on gaza _ firing rockets... if we don't count israel's siege on gaza as - firing rockets... if we don't count israel's siege on gaza as a - firing rockets... if we don't count israel's siege on gaza as a form i firing rockets... if we don't countl israel's siege on gaza as a form of aggression, if we don't count israel's continued absolute control of every aspect of life as a form of violence and aggression. israel have the upper hand in gaza whether rockets are fired or not. it controls everything in and out of gaza, it controls up to the number of calories people in gaza can consume, what kind of medicine is allowed in, what kind of building material is allowed in. that reality is not exactly one of peace for more than 2 million palestinians in gaza. i think in orderfor us to reach than 2 million palestinians in gaza. i think in order for us to reach a real, durable solution to the situation, which isjust devastating for civilians, we have to go a step back an

on wednesday morning a rocket fell in lodi killing a man and a child. well riots have also gripped jerusalem for a 5th day in a row this is the worst on breasts the city has seen yes 2. the 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 possibility of victualling of palestinians from their homes in east jerusalem with a 1000 palestinians have been injured in the past few days in east jerusalem meanwhile hamas has fired hundreds of rockets towards televisa and its suburbs israel they retaliate has continued to pound the gaza strip with missile strikes targeting police un security installations. so right now the united nations security council is holding an emergency closed door meeting on the israel palestinian conflict amid concerns of a protracted and devastating war developing well that's across life now to watch these live mufon who's in new york where those talks are happening can you tell us what the u.n. will be discussing exactly indeed as the si

seen rockets fired on tel aviv.t seen rockets fired on jerusalem, in fact, when we saw last night and that's an indication of where this is going, which is to say, a larger scale war, an ongoing conflict is not out of the question and there doesn't appear to be an off ramp at this stage. this started in jerusalem, and that gives you an idea of the sensitivity and the importance of jerusalem, that this is still ongoing. it began as an ongoing legal battle over a number of homes in a neighborhood called sh sheik jarah. there was an israeli organization trying to evict a number of palestinian families out of their homes and there was a high court decision expected on that. that's where the anger began. it went from a dispute over homes. that grew into a nationalistic issue for israelis and palestinians and because this is jerusalem with its holy significance, its national significance for israelis and palestinians, it then became a religious issue and that's where we saw large, wide-scale protests that were not only in

a lot of those rockets, most of those rockets actually were intercepted by the israeli rocket defense system. the iron dome and those are those kind of pops of white cloud that you see . that's actually the i don't missile defense system hitting the rockets and the rockets exploding. however, all throughout the day we've also seen and sorry, rather we've heard the dull boom of the israelis bombarding by atlanta and see the gaza strip. i mean, you can probably just faint me here is as i'm speaking about, boom. booming is still continuing. and again, you saw from my colleagues what color, what is going on in gaza, be effective those yes, a launch from it. but the effect is in gaza, but it's so frustrating marlene when we were talking just 24 hours ago, was telling you that there was still hope for the you in a convoy to get through the border crossing current. so lam and into garza to bring that much needed 8 into gaza will it's still there hasn't actually left the un frustrated with these really. israelis are simply not opening the border because they say the border isn't sorry, the ba

coming from garza one of the rockets. there while the other is said to have hit a port israeli defense forces tweeted that the attack there won't go unanswered we spoke to the press officer of the israeli foreign ministry michael freeman he told us that it is problematic for israel to consider a cease fire at the moment. any ceasefire needs to be a serious there's no point in having a ceasefire that after 24 hours or 48 hours who all of a sudden i must start firing rockets again so we need to make sure that any cease fire is one that is going to last for a significant period of time hopefully many years and therefore we need to be in a position that hamas are really ready to take that and so we will continue our operation until we believe and we are you doing this in the summer say they are ready for a cease in in activity and cease of their rockets for a very long time you can go back a few days it's dropped that many many steps to deescalate the response we got from thomas was rocket fire every time in that we stop we g

exchanging more than a 1000 rockets for a 2nd day in a row of 5 israelis and at least 43 palestinians have been killed since the cross border flare up again. well at the moment there are several hot spots in the conflict well he we can see them out coming up for you now you've got gaza of course you've got jerusalem tel aviv and load of the last the last day here has been the focus of some of the fiercest fighting ultimately leading the israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu to declare a state of emergency in this city now in this makes arab and jewish town 3 synagogues and numerous shops and cars were reported to be torched as intense rioting by the arab community broke out of the understand some residents reported power was cut to their homes and even though petrol bombs were thrown through windows the local like in 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 well the end of the military administration in 1966 now only on a wednesday morning a rocket fell in load killing a man and a child. we

able to stop these rockets on these attacks also. the thing that also the israelis know and they said that several times they're not that the palestinian fighting groups they have dig tunnels networks of tunnels they call it that are networks underground so they use these tunnels. for fighting purposes and they hide their rockets or their fighting means so the palestinian groups they are developing themselves they are the developing their techniques and they learn from the previous experiences with and during 3 wars in the last 2 years with the israelis so that's why sometimes the israelis they had to place you have civilians. victims because of these attacks maybe they were targeting or they believe they were targeting militants but the other hand we see that most of the casualties which is all was confirmed also by the hospitals in gaza most of the casualties are civilians including children and women. ok so many thanks. reporting live from gaza well the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is insisting hamas should quote pay

well i have to turn the question over how is it ok for hamas to fire rockets missed civilians they had a manual which israeli intelligence grabbed in 2014 which explained how they were systematically purposely planting all of their command centers their rockets everything around civilians it was a new level until then there's been some groups that sometimes did something like that but they were doing it systematically so look israel is ready to make peace or has come close to making peace with the palestinians in the west bank the palestinian authority multiple times in 200-2000 some 2 dozen 8 there was arguments about a couple percentage points of the west bank you know would you which are 90 percent 95 percent that something was 70 percent but those are negotiations to try to reach a resolution to come out and hezbollah in lebanon are not interested in a resolution so when there is no negotiation the only thing you can do is try to deter somebody who may come us to not fire rockets at you do it by plan i mean i'm not even to go back to how israel funded the creation of hamas using u.

and if rockets were to get through you know it could cause all kinds of nuclear waste and problematic situations i think people think it's very unlikely the understanding is iron dome defense is very very strong around dimona. but look it's it is it is a larger picture here and you know when we talk about my book we talk about iran and iran is even though when you were talking about come out this is also islamic jihad and they are an iranian proxy and come out even though they're not a straight iranian proxy right there sunni iran is shiite they sometimes quietly and something very publicly are working together a lot of the rockets are coming from iran where the rocket shooters have been trained in iran or the money for it goes from iran so go all the way back to the caribbean 2001 that was the 1st time iran tried to bring 50 tons of rockets and other weapons smuggled into gaza when they could've hit the israeli home front with no iron dome to defend. and now here we are 20 years later and it's still going on in the masses much stronger in terms of the rockets so this is a problem whe

those are the rockets that are being fired, intercepting the rockets.lly behind benjamin netanyahu. we have any idea of how the tone of statements from this administration might differ from the loss? >> you are exactly right and i do think the last administration was really tight with benjamin netanyahu and the israelis overall. not to say that this administration doesn't have its own relationship, but it's much different in tone and tenor and i don't think as far as personalities and ideology that they are linked with benjamin netanyahu and probably welcome the fact that they were going to get the nod to form a coalition government there. that said, you will see support and as i mentioned probably and urge for all sizes to step back. >> sandra: the breaking news will continue. we will continue to cover this. trey yingst is doing excellent reporting there. thank you for joining us. senator john kennedy on democrat sweeping election push that republicans call a pure power grab. he will join us live. >> john: developments over students who were suspended

hamas may have as many as 10000 missiles, rockets and mortars held in reserve.and meanwhile, the works to the north with many times that arsenal. we should therefore, endeavor to restore that israel has more interceptors for iron dome that hamas has rockets to kill as an israeli's predict wherever and however that i've cut off aid until the palestinian authority until we can be absolutely sure another time the taxpayer money is being used to buy and build rockets or pay pensions or for the murderous terrorists and finally, the biden administration also immediately and is misguided flirtation with bureaucrats in iran by recalling his chief negotiator in peace summer, rob malley from negotiation and. the biden administration reenters the failed iran nuclear agreement grants sanctions for relief to the regime in tehran in very short order. appeasement payoffs be converted into rockets aimed at israel as well as american troops throughout the region. while israel is under attack, we've heard plenty of talk anden mealy mouth statements from politicians. but in this m

what do you grow of rocket fire. into the steady from hamas in the past 12 hours or so the 1st round of fire happened on tuesday evening at around 9 pm and i was caught in the city when it happened and i was walking along the street and i was literally dragged into the shelter by the passer by so there is this protocol you have to follow when there is an incident like this happen when you hear a siren you have 90 seconds to get into the shelter so you have to locate the nearest shelter and get into this and they say you'll have to go quickly but calmly the reason for this is because there are when people panic and run and they can stumble and injure themselves and i can tell you that when the siren goes off it's. you know you have this potential panic in your gut it's so loud and it's so. overwhelming and it's hard to stay calm but that's what you got to do. basically they were around. so that. roused all fire on tuesday night it lasted for about 30 minutes and that entire time i stayed in the shelter and i later lea

that a 1000 rockets more than a 1000 rockets have been fired israeli airstrikes on gaza continue and from your point of view you've seen a lot of military hardware heading towards the border with gaza. yes i think that does accord with what we have been hearing from the israeli government from the defense minister who is saying that this is an operation without an end date at the moment now this doesn't mean necessarily that there is going to be a ground invasion. certainly there are significant risks as far as israel is concerned given how much it has already been able to do from the air but we've seen number of tracked vehicles of heavy artillery self propelled howitzers being put into place on the back of of flatbed lorries which of them been returning empty so certainly there is preparation for potentially a different phase or at least a show of force and the option of having that in place is the is there in what we've seen as for what we've seen inside gaza so far as you've heard from those initial opening soundbites that there have been continuing strikes and the death toll has
