Armed forces of pain involved in class is on his pulled up with lab on the wrong says any phone actions really action against it will be mess with a devastating response. So its 1400. 00 g m t, thats 5 pm and gone. So by a palestinian homes, continuing to be bombed by is really forces. Im just a quick wanting to of use. The pictures were about to show all disturbing the optimize of one of those bombings. These are the scenes from the job ally neighborhoods in the besieged strip. There are reports of massive casualties, the and total around 560. 00 pounds, simians, and 800. 00 is ratings, have been killed. And the most serious escalation of violence in decades as well has announced also a total blockade of the guns and strip causing of food, fuel volta and electricity, or not move the leaves. I have ordered a complete siege on the gaza strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals and we act accordingly. Lets speak now to get on the outside. Shes our correspondent in garza and she joins us on the phone because you, me, you were given orders to evacuate the building. Well, bureau is, where are you now and where are you headed . Yes. Laura, we evacuated the building in actually all the buildings in re, my neighborhood. Ill have the back to where you could officer. C receiving messages to instantly about 2 ways, of course the p dot, the intensity and the excessive boardman at for the neighborhood that are closed out. So youve got to wait. We have to quickly about to read back the area weve had to to uh, to uh, another uh, another office uh close to the tours or uh, close to the, the very much close, but this is the safest area that we could find now. Oh, parade. Uh, also reach out to a 100 percent cold with a 100 percent safe area because every single place in garza now is under fire. Me. Yes. Was saying awful patches of the reality on the ground. The reality of an a strike in the gaza strip devastation fires. People carrying dead and wounded people to hospitals. Of these things that you are seeing in the strip in every day. Yes, no, no. I mean the, and the pictures actually dont show. 2 all the reaction to the realities far more than that, i mean the pictures because even just to all the places, its once were trying to cover as much as we could, would hold as much as fixtures at best. So we, we, we find and reduce that we can collect, but its even worse than that. The areas that have been targeted in god are all very much in just a massive 3 days. I mean, its not just residential homes, its residential homes. Even now, and even ambulances are being targeted like to 9 ambulances are out of service because they were targeted was trying to, uh, 6 off the sicilian who, where, uh, targeted the oh, the by just at their home or in the areas of the apartment. Uh, be because of they had known in the north of parts of South District is completely out of service. Now, because of and is there any error rate on that uh, on that uh hospital. So this situation is not just about uh, targeting spaces. They belong to uh, how that, like all the government offices that have already been charge. You said its not just a charge. You think military cost to be logged into effect stand for gates and other funding goods. Because districts were talking about civilians who were talking about home hospitals, ambulances was, these are the indeed i do the facilities that have the most do called the most civilian in the residence and r n a and, and nor. 6 most residents of the just me. Okay, give them the outsides. Everything is a very vivid picture of a situation inside goals. As we all say, these pictures that are pretty inquiry, some of the off them off of strikes that just a few hours ago in july a refugee come inside gone. So this is the reality of the situation on the ground. The reality that our correspondence is also telling us about a she makes her way to a safe place away from the bureau where the ultra 0 building was off to as really on the order to a fact to 8000 building. But as we can see, as she was saying, that room very few safe space is left in because of strep as the strikes continue as well. Its also saying that its sending military reinforcements to something. Israel is cooling up 300000 because of this and is preparing for a major assault matches reporting. Its we taking control of the board of times which was over run by how much flights of the army says that some isolated fighting is ongoing. He said its un mission female shop. The state of israel and the army on are responding to a criminal and cool attack by home. Us the intrusion of the terrorists into the private homes of civilians from people in the gaza strip undertaking of women and children. This is murderous terrorism. Therefore we are attacking the suing and harming anyone who took part in that game. And thats how well continue. I know that the past day has been hard. The price is heavy. I know that there are many questions and much frustration, but the important thing we are now focusing on Going Forward with assistance and resolving problems. We have civilians, Security Forces, a soldiers killed and injured the some of them are in the hands of the enemy box. Yeah. Okay, thats to in our correspondence in the southern is run out, child stratford is joining us from nasa vault the tennis festival. Charles, what you all seeing in terms of the build up of these trips along the southern border with garza it cannot really be described as a massive uh, truth build up heavy weaponry being broke down into this area. Behind me, you can see a p, cs, all the personnel carriers. These, of course, are designed to take troops infantry into battle. Weve also seen tank sweep seen the self propelled mobile, lots henry pieces. Weve seen all to the re cannons. Weve seen countless strikes as well, continuous facilities being made by check fighters flying in that direction towards the gauze border, which i suppose is about 3 kilometers away. Dropping that probably like dropping that bombs, returning going around to get in the last minutes or so little side to the now we still had a cold gun ships heading in that direction to the interesting wheel. So its the number of troops that we seeing now that were not visible at least earlier this morning, is the, the number of these, right, the soldiers that are being protein on the trucks. Many of them are driving what can already really be described, saving me so specialized light weight, small vehicles, implying that some form of Ground Invasion is could well be imminent. Meanwhile, federal, i shall have the powers of rockets as well have been fired from the palestinians. So id certainly this area less so in the last couple of hours. But this morning we were in steroids, which is around 3 killed off, which is north east of gauze, i inside israel, one of those towns that was infiltrated by how much spices when we were inside there was an ongoing operation. And these rating policies told us in a press release, told us that there was an ongoing authoration to try and find the last remnants of those time of supply just in the stair. All i know especially was about an hour later where there was this announcement by bodies magazine is right, the ministry saying that they had played full times with how much flight is going to in the last couple of days. However, we all are hearing ripples hold on going fine because you mentioned in the, in show, in a number of different areas inside these realize this multi population by these, right . The full continues. So it seems as if suddenly that could well be home us policy. The in flight is still operating inside is right. It was already this morning that the press conference given by the is riley ministry. Barry can did indeed, that Spokes Person saying that they were up to 20 points, a breach along the gauze, a border where and his woods, hundreds and hundreds of hammer, spices had gone through. And certainly the smouldering, the statement was that the ministry was surprised and concerned. They hadnt basically reached as a goals as quickly as possible. The goal initially of clearing this border area inside as well. All those high my spices. So the situation is very fluid with respect to civilians. Is there any civilians in this area . We know that they have been wound installs to evacuate the certain insights that all that well, literally thousands of civilians are saving lead still inside one man telling us that even to show it mean to say to stay. He said now is not the time to leave of several, again, showing that its, im a nation to say it with which many of these hes right. Is that living this area so close to go as i have and have you to, i mean they all to stand the ground. But we know that at least 8 hundreds is, riley civilians have been killed. And of course, you know, more than 5600. 00 palestinians that youve seen and looking at those horrific pictures. Whats going on inside garza, these continuous bomb bomb. And so yeah, here on these righty side of the boat of the situation is fluid is still ongoing. Flashing a report so i wont be ready to describe seemed to be a massive military build up. Okay, tells thanks very much for bringing to view that from the southern israel. Its tunnel sites. Now north was to northern israel, where it is on the border with 11 on the ministry, says its killed fights, those who attempt to infiltrate from lebanon sunday fine, so shell, talk to you on the is really occupation with most of the strikes. Israel then followed with auto generate file, and then a hold on, joins us live from the village of come on this in southern lebanon, same. And were looking at pictures of smoke rising out the boulder that, you know, were talking the last hour. You quoted an active for to explain to us what were saying, what is happening the well, it is now and active front 11 on israel board, one of the most volatile borders in the region as well. Saying that its for did an attempt by a number of suspects. It didnt identify them. They attempted to cross into israel, or there was a clash and they said that they killed a number of them after that is really helicopter gunship targeted a number of locations in so theyre in villages along the border with as well as really aircraft. Were also involved there were airstrikes, really a marked escalation because yesterday, what we saw was exchange of fire in a limited area, has block choosing to target and is really position in territory that is disputed, as we have responded with artillery, surely it was largely contained today its different, even though it has the law is denied that it was involved in this operation saying that its has, you know, it wasnt involved in any operation inside is really territory of this is how as well as strong hold. And it is highly unlikely that any group would be able to carry out an operation without, as well as, without, as well as knowledge or, or approval. So this is a message as well as telling as well that you know more and more pressure, youre going to face more and more pressure on the Northern Front. If you keep up your war against garza now, like i said, its ready to air strikes, helicopter gunship, save target to hezbollah, observation, post a watchtower in the past. When israel retaliated, they used to hit the open areas. So people are worried that to graduate escalation its, its a gradual escalation. And many fear that if indeed as well decides to push a ground defensive into this Northern Front will be a very active Northern Front. And the confrontations will buy them. And this will take on, you know, a regional dimension to the pictures that were seeing all great plumes of smoke along that horizon that with the boulder is and they have just behind some small villages or some hamlet sieve. And some groups of houses. Can you tell us this area is like in terms of the population, the people who live the well, this is a very long border, the israel 11 and border south lebanon. Its not densely populated. There are a number of villages, but people are afraid of some people have started to call us telling us that, you know, some roads are dangerous. Theyre worried that there will be air strikes, targeting roads. People here have lived through many, many wars. They know that to israel decides to unless its fired, power of, you know, there will be casualties so, so people are concerned of the people here are as well as supporters. No doubt. You know, they stand behind has beloved, but they have families of families as well. And people in baby booth they are concerned as well because if, if, as well decides to retaliate, it will not just be and sell their 11 on. They will also target hezbollah strongholds in the southern types of baby boots, for example. And it is really officials have even more 11 on that that will turn this country back into the stone age. They will target the infrastructure electricity. So people are, theyre worried that the situation really could spirals out of control. And what we saw today, really, it was very different from yesterday, so you get this gradual escalation message telling those raises more and more pressure. Dont forget how mazda is part of the so called access of resistance. So it has the law groups that are backed by iran, they to have positions on, on as well, supported with syria. So is there a good face really, a lot of pressure say to as you say, this is a hezbollah struggle hold has but i close the shots in this area, but people watching these pictures now who may not be. And you think he claims that with, with the situation but in level and will be all scaring with the government is in all this and wherever is that control over this board . Or perhaps you can explain that to us as well. This country is, is in a political crisis, there is no precedent, and there is no function in government. There is a care taker administration, but it cannot take care of major decisions. The state is nearly bankrupt because of an economic crisis, which is now in its 4th year. You have politicians who have been governing this country for decades, refusing to carry out reforms in order to revive the economy. So people are struggling. Millions require 8 food, food and security is high. Inflation is high. The local currency has lost its value. They look at has beloved uh, you know, hezbollah has lost a lot of support when it started to get involved in conflicts across the region. When it got involved in the war in syria, in yemen. They say that has the law is implementing the strategy or agenda of iran and not working for the interest of the states. They believe that has a lot is funding in the way of, of creating, of creating a state. So this is a deeply polarized society of this country went through a 15 year war and it, which ended in 1993 decades ago. But this country is still not at peace communities do not live side by side. So can you imagine many of them now saying it is not up to hezbollah to decide whether or not 11 on is to be dragged into this conflict. But regardless of that fact, i can say that the majority of the lebanese people will say, the palestinians have the right to live in self determination. The palestinians should be given the states. They should be able to live in dignity 11 on there are palestinian refugees. They live in squalid conditions and caps with very little help. These are the majority of them are poor. Many of them have found their way to europe because they cannot survive here because the lebanese government does not provide them with enough age. And so, so yes, there is support to the palestinian cause, but at the same time, many, many are worried because they, they saw that devastating conflict back in 2006 for over a month. The conflict was not confined to southern lebanon. You know, israel was target to a installations infrastructure across the country. So it many will say that you, this gradual pressure is, is a message to this really is that, you know, you will see much more of this. If indeed you make that to, if you push into a garza and so and then stop, if you dont stop the attacking garza ok, say, now hold on. Joining us that from 711 and on the pool, the with israel, the way of saying huge plains of smoke as were hearing of south of financing happening. The is really saying that people have like to is have attempted to infiltrate from 11 and hezbollah, denying any involvement in this, but as well following with all 10 or 8 fund into southern level, as i said, it was saying this is an active front line on a very bullet top for the in the region. So this is one movie keeping a very close eye on in the coming hours. Lets get more now on the latest elsewhere in israel. We can speak to saw hire at. Shes joining us live from west jerusalem. And saying that weve just been getting reports of Rocket Science being hug in jerusalem. I wouldnt say its telling voices this on the news agencies. What have you been hearing about that . Yeah, lots of right norris is this new the has started. We were hearing it behind us and obviously were looking out the windows to see if we could see anything. It lost it a little bit longer than it did earlier this afternoon. And then we had a full loud boons. And those seemed to be in to set to buy the item done, but then on, on social media, the moment this is not confirmed, this is just a lot of people tasting video isnt saying that its folded in for a full rockets of 4. 00 and 3. 00 at full bravo, sorry, different areas, one being a in occupied westbank, but in an area that susan illegal is really settlement. Now, just to give off you as a background of what that means. We have a, the occupied west spines which is occupied by israel and narrow areas in the weather. All the settlements with thousands of these ratings on leaving illegally and occupied territory. And as cool sets of those settlements are looking to be expanded even further on to the current fall, right out a is really government rather, but also 3 others have full and one of them being in jerusalem it seems as well. So thats in terms of the sirens or so weve been hearing from a Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu, thats been speaking with counselors from the southern towns telling them that this is not over. This is just the beginning. And interestingly he said with that that just get things started and then as we are going to change the middle east. And of course when this all happened 3 days ago, it was a huge embarrassment for a benjamin netanyahu. His government, not just on a local level, but also in an international level, of course, is rarely seen to be very strong, military wise, that surprises cellphone surveillance, whether its software or whether its intelligence. And of course they were completely sides drawing did so. So then they see all to see that how much is it, is it for them has by law of twos, they accuse them of being funded by a wrong. And i think thats in reference when he says to change the face of the middle east to in his words, illuminate from us, especially beyond parts of him us and not just shows you that hes saying that hes not just doing this for israel, but hes doing it for to bring stability in his opinion to, to the region now close this console. So its a time when youre looking to normalize relations with saudi arabia on saturday, who has had a contentious relationship with iran for many, many years. So in terms of resolving, we have 300000 reserve is that have responded and clearly thats going to be the next step to mobilize. Those results based those people risk. Some of them live abroad. Those are been flying to as well. I think, i believe was it yesterday maybe a flight came in from la monica and cyprus. Um, so that just gives you no idea when he says that we are going into this next phase, thats clearly the direction that this country is heading. He has been how to divide its Public Opinion this time round when hes come back into power. As long as serving Prime Minister is rowe. And hes been very just by cit because of the Coalition Government that he has too much with a policy members, the ultra right wing. So in this wake of all of this part of the feeling of unity and, and for coming together, the opposition be does have suggested unity emergency government. So talks about happening now. And were still waiting to see what comes out of that. Okay, sorry, thanks very much. For bringing us the very latest, the from west jerusalem. Just a reminder to all view is of the top lines on this major story that we are following this hour. Is thing 3 of israels war against a garza as ready as strikes of killed thousands of people in the jump on that refugee come. The defense minister says a full blockade is being imposed on the unclaimed would come to food, fuel electricity. And also the total number of palestinians killed since last day is moving 50800 is rainys being killed as well says its cooling up, 300000 visitors met. She says its we taken control of for the talent from some of the flights of the reports that flight thing is ongoing them. And israels army says it has killed fights, us that infiltrated from southern lebanon, tennessee, rounds and gun 5 have been exchanged. Iranian box has prolong movement, has denies involvement both health and bar code is direct to all of the Global Institute for strategic recess at how much Bennett KellyState University here in castle great to have you with us. Thats festival. Go back to me such as a morning when, how much targeted those areas in the southern israel saying that they were legitimate targets because they were in settlements. They was specialist in special events. Oh, settlements created by israel, illegal, or the sure all settlements all form of quantization is illegal. Whether it is in uh, westbank or what was in gaza. Now with him guys. Uh, if you go back 219901996 when theyre ready to start just to build the barrier between so called israel thats been recognized by even the piano. And guys they did not follow exactly. They did nationally defined line of 1967. And so some of those settlements that are very close to the border of guys a fall into this in legal framework, then they shouldnt really be there as well graphically. Okay, and those who live in them, they recognize that them, they understand the risk of leaving so close to a seized area and notified area. It was an extraordinary operation that how much norm sent it to israel completely by surprise. Why do you think they conducted it . Now, well, as i suspect mazda, it was just an opportune moment, and they, so a very dysfunctional government led by the time yahoo, im the extreme right. Nothing now and extreme right, misled those varieties, i think, and pushing towards the i left some off. He receives many, many warnings about to the attacks on that thats the most, but they still push to head with that. And instead of a retreating or changing the direction around decimals, they brought their Security Forces from the south to protect the settlements in the note. And, and i think the combination of those factors have been realized by him us and this was an opportune moment to, to attack. But of course, israel is a tiny thing with such force as we havent ever seen before. Its saying its not going to stop until it sees the end of how much militarily and politically has, how am i supposed to balance it . So now and i dont think so. I think theyve been saying this for 75 years. And every time theres a resistance there, having to bring it to an end to connect to Something Else with little girl. The, such as you, they have been using for the last decades is what we call a sense of moving that drive. So, you know, they, they try to eliminate, to estimate leaders limit to the capacity. But the fundamental, you understand the, the root cause of the problem as long as that, that would be resistance and there would be more how much to be bought. In fact, maybe the next version of how much would be worse than the one that exists at the moment as far as theyre concerned. So, and this is being that experience. They started with that all 5 to and job have. My son is very 1st at least ages in the west by and then in gaza. So without addressing the root cause of this and that just ended up probation. I dont think there is a way moving forward. The one thing we fear is that with these kind of the operation today and the language thats been used by net anyhow, which i think is very generous. I use the engine side or in the way, just being frame that to you on the extreme right may want to push that up to use out of gaza, either into egypt or into your hand, may then tend to attention to the old time, which is about based on really em seeing the line from his feet. Okay. South america, we will be talking to a lot more as the evening continues. But for the moment thanks very much for joining us here. Thanks for that. Now moving on to think us has sent a Carrier Strike group to the region in support of israel and like kind of his life for us at the white house. So weve got space shows huge. So of support here in the region. What are we hearing also of the us . Well, certainly the deployment of that to carry a unit is very, very important and a substantive deployment. Its an Aircraft Carrier company, via guided messiah cruise, along with guided miss out the store, as well as that would be on the wall to support once you have a Carrier Group like this moving, although that is never confirmed. But in addition, the pentagon is also non set. It is augmenting how the u. S. Is price resources in the region. It is sending additional fine to a craft into the region. The pen to con, also says that it is already organizing military supplies as well. They all already on its way within. I was at the beginning of this conflicts of that has been a very shopping Immediate Reaction from the United States in terms of its support for israel, what it calls, including president biden, the cost and support for israel in this crisis. Unlike looking or domestic play, weve got the house of representatives now without a speak up everything stymied that will impact those that have on congressional reaction. Well, must have been proud, resolved to speak it in the house. Uh, congress is basically how strong it is frozen. How the house cannot take decisions like to declare war to approve additional funds for israel during this current crisis, for example. So without to speak up, the house is not just the domestic crisis, which is
