viewers from all around the world. i'm paula newton with the very latest on the israel-hamas war. israel is defending its deadly strike on a deadly populated refugee camp in move in gaza. now it is too soon to know the casualty count, or the true scope of the devastation. but a doctor at a gaza hospital says, it has received hundreds of dead or wounded people after the attack. >> now as you see from the pictures, there are multiple craters in the ground, and huge piles of rubble. the israel defense forces said, it was targeting a top hamas commander involved in the october 7th rampage, and succeeded, they, claim and taking him out. now we are told dozens of hamas combatants were also killed when the underground tunnels beneath the camp collapsed. innocent lives were also lost. the israeli military said, it is working to determine the number of civilian deaths. >> now i'm not saying that there are no civilian casualties, what i am saying is that we struck an important military objective. >> a hamas spokesperson accused israel of trying to justify what he called a heinous crime against civilians,, women and children. he denied that the leader of israel claimed kill was even present in the camp at the time of the strike. in the meantime, the white house says despite the blast, there are quote, indications israel is trying to protect civilians. the national security council spokesperson called the death tragedies, and said the u.s. would keep working with the israelis about the need to limit civilian casualties. . listen. >> unlike russia and ukraine, unlike what i must it on the seventh of, october the killing of civilians is not a warning of israel. i'm not denying that it is happening. of course it is. and it is tragic. it is not the rule of israeli forces to go out and deliberately take an essence of alien life. they have tried to make efforts to minimize that. >> witnesses to the strike or describing horrendous scenes and saying it felt like the end of the world. a warning, now our next report contains graphic content. cnn's not a beshear has the story. >> horrifying scenes of utter despair. we are? issue >> this man pleads. everything here is gone. part of the refugee camp, among the largest populated in, gaza now turned to rubble. the latest target of israel's relentless air campaign. >> the idf has claimed responsibility for the airstrike, the target, they say a senior hamas commander killed in the blast. >> we were focused again on a target, a senior commander. >> but this attack, this massacre as doctors in gaza are describing it, has hit civilians hardest. the response teams work desperately in the hope of finding more survivors, but outside gases overwhelmed indonesian hospital, corpses nine the street. the number of those killed an injured according to hospitals director already in the hundreds. they were just in their homes, children, women, the elderly we have no idea what to do. the injured are everywhere. inside the hospital, mothers with their children, wounded and traumatized, but outside survivors continue to dig through the debris of what once were their homes desperate to find loved ones buried beneath, with all fearing of the very worst. some of the videos which have emerged from the aftermath of the airstrike are simply too graphic to show. doctors tell cnn the bodies were found charred and dismembered. this nightmare comes after residents in northern gaza were warned by israel to evacuate southwards. many simply cannot leave. while israel denies carrying out collective punishment against the palestinian people, scenes like this reflect across the gaza strip, show that it is civilians thatat are paying the price. not a beshear, cnn, jerusalem. >> cnn's scott mclain is tracking at the international reaction and you are with us from london. of course there is quite a bit of reaction just given some of the scenes we have seen there. >> exactly, paula, look, the american reaction to this that you mentioned earlier on in your, show the white house believe is that it is that israel is trying to minimize civilian casualties. that is in stark contrast to the reaction you're seeing from leaders across the middle east. you have the human embattled or or the palestinian ambassador to the u.n., saying that the international criminal court should be issuing arrest warrants for those responsible for the. strikes you have -- arrived pulls iran and saudi arabia in the condemnation of what happened. iranians calling the strike barbaric. united arab emirates, a country that has been deepening its diplomatic and economic ties with, israel in recent years, says that indiscriminate attacks could cause irreparable harm to the region, egypt calling this in human, and saying, quote egypt considers this as a new flagrant violation by the israeli forces against the provisions of international, law and international humanitarian laws. by and large one of the most outspoken leaders in the region since over the last few weeks of this war has been a turkish president recep tayyip erdogan, he called israel's entire war effort a massacre. he said quote, these early administration backed by the unconditional support of europe and america has been committing crimes against humanity in front of the eyes of the whole world, for exactly 25 days. we believe israel, which seems to have completely lost its state of mind in acts like an organization must be stopped estimates possible. even within israel, you are seeing some condemnation. human rights group in israel -- put out this statement, saying this criminal arm to civilians wasn't taller will, and the obvious needs to be stated again and again. not everything is allowed in, war including hamas. targeting civilians was always prohibited, and israel must stop these attacks now. you are also even seeing reaction from outside the region, chile and columbia have both recalled their ambassadors over this. and of course from the west, you have had some outliers like the norwegian prime minister saying, israel has crossed a line in his view when it comes to international law, but by, large paula, the reaction from many countries in the west, and in europe, has been that, look is what has a right to defend itself. but it needs to do so within international law. obviously the question of whether or not it is doing it with an international law, the jury is out on that. >> continuing to be unfortunately as this war drags on, scott mclain for us in, london appreciate it. >> more now, i want to bring in -- he is eight military advisor at pacts for peace, and a former u.n. war crimes investigator. i will get to your resume, because it is very pertinent here as well. to make a fine point of, it you actually were in charge of high value targeting at the pentagon. so we really want to talk to you to try and understand what went on here. of course it is difficult at this point to verify the civilian toll, this is a contentious point between israel and palestinians. but really, let's be clear, in essence died here period. so in terms of how these airstrikes are planned, is israel's justification rooted in international rules of war as far as you know? >> yes, so, israel clearly has a right to defend itself. but that right is not unlimited. they have to follow the laws of war. when we look at the way i did it when i was doing targeting during the iraq war in 2003, you have two different things you have to consider. one is, you have to always distinguish between military objects and their civilian. that seems pretty obvious. you want to target the military side. then, you have to do it proportionately. that means that any military action you take can be outweighed by civilian harm. so when we look at the strike, two of the questions you will have to ask themselves are, one, can we target this densely populated area? this refugee camp? i have been there. it is one of the most densely populated places on earth. can we target it in a way that we are not going to spread the harm so wide we will involve civilians? but also, can we get to that key leader, and is that leader so important that the civilian harm that will be caused by that strike is going to be justified? that is the question the target is have to ask themselves? >> do you think they ask him selves those questions when you see -- >> yes, i think that israel is playing loose with the law. i think their interpretation of civilian harm's very permissive. i look at when we were targeting during the iraq war in 2003, we had a number. that number was 30 civilians killed in any strike we were going to have against saddam hussein. so the leader of the iraqi military and government was worth 30 civilians. as mike cobb as that may seem, that was the calculus that was made. to look at a hamas leader, no matter how important, and -- hundreds of civilians killed, we don't know how many were harmed in this event, it really boggles the mind, and it is hard for me to understand. i think we need to ask the israelis if you were conducting the strike, and it was just really civilians that were going to be, killed would you have still pulled the trigger? >> which brings us to the point to proportionality, this fight has already been relentless. it is been going on for less than a month. is that level of intensity necessary, and i ask you as, well is it even smart at this point in terms of protecting israel's security? >> well, you know, i think the most important thing here is to protect civilians in israel and gaza. i don't think that the current campaign is doing that. i think what we need to do is ratchet things, down move quickly to a cease-fire, and find a political solution to this. it is very difficult in the current climate. the civilian harm that was made, clearly a hamas committed war, crimes that is evident. the rocket attacks into israel or war crimes. but the response cannot be one that is such where civilians are constantly paying the price for these strikes. and i fear that we are just going to continue to see massive civilian harm in just the weeks of this war, we have seen more bombs dropped in gaza than the u.s. dropped at the height of the war in afghanistan in any single year. >> that is extraordinary. just you putting at that, way and giving us an idea of what we have been looking at in the last few weeks. unfortunately, whether people of gaza have been living through. mark, thank you so, much appreciate your expertise. >> thanks for having me. >> still a developing story for, us telephone and internet services are completely down at this hour across gaza, that is according to two palestinian telecom firms. one company posted on social media that the international routes that were previously reconnected have been cut off again. cnn staff in jerusalem have tried calling and messaging contacts with gaza numbers, but they are not getting through. it emit monitoring groups tell cnn recent blackouts have been the worst since the conflict began on october 7th. okay, coming up for, us urgent warnings of an increase in extremist threats and acts of hate in the u.s. as the war between israel and hamas began. we will have more on this. >> u.s. republican lawmakers are battling over how to provide aid to israel, senate majority leader mitch mcconnell wants to tie israel funding to more help for ukraine. newly minted house speaker mike johnson is pushing for a stand-alone aid bill for israel. that would be funded in part by a cut to spending on the internal revenue service. now on the senate floor to, state leaders of both parties criticize the proposal. listen. >> the new speaker knows perfectly well that if you want to help israel, you can't proposed legislation that is full of poison pills. this house gop proposal is clearly designed to divide congress, on a partisan basis. >> so at the risk of repeating myself with threats facing america and our allies are serious, and they are intertwined. >> if we ignore that fact, we do so at our own peril. >> now speaking to lawmakers -- told lawmakers it is a vital for the u.s. to provide aid to ukraine and israel together, so that russia and china will not see washington as, quote, playing whack a mole in response to global crises. in the meantime, top u.s. officials warn that the war in the middle east has led to a spike in antisemitism, and islamophobic incidents in the united states. those concerns have been echoed by the leading advocacy groups for jewish and muslim americans. cnn's brian todd has more. >> from america's top law enforcement and homeland security officials a frightening assessment of the atmosphere of fear, now threatening the jewish and muslim communities in the u.s. since the israel-hamas war began on october 7th. >> in the days and weeks, since we have responded to an increase in threats against jewish, muslim, and air communities and institutions across our country. >> homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas, and fbi director christopher wray instant testimony on tuesday said the ongoing war has ramped up the threat landscape inside the u.s.. >> our most immediate concern is that violent extremists, individuals, or small groups will draw inspiration from the events in the middle east, to korea attacks against americans going about their daily lives. >> wray says, it is not just violent extremist inspired by foreign terrorist organizations who are effected the muslim and jewish communities in the u.s., but also lone wolf through after gutted those groups since october 7th. >> we have already seen that with the individual we arrested last week in houston, who had been studying how to build bombs, and posted online about his support for killing jewish. with a tragic killing of a six-year-old muslim war in illinois that we are investigating as a federal hate crime. >> the top jewish and muslim civil rights organizations in the u.s. both report huge spikes in incidents targeting their groups. the anti-defamation league says, since october 7th, that's been a nearly 400% increase in antisemitic incidents in america. >> this is like a virus, it is spreading across the country, around the world. >> the council on american islamic relations says, complaints of incidents targeting muslims in the u.s. have been about three times higher since october 7th than they were during the same period last year. >> there is no way to really give you a sense of the incoming flood of calls. it is 24 hours a, day seven days a week with people reaching out from various requests, some of them really traumatized by what has happened. >> like a family in the chicago area who put up a free palestine flag in their yard. they got a letter saying remove the sign, or burn. in upstate new york, a person is now in custody in connection with a series of threats against jewish students at cornell university. >> when you look at the plots and individuals being arrested, almost pedestrian in nature. these are average citizens that are drawn into an online environment that encourages them to commit these acts. >> fbi director christopher wray says the bureau is combatting these incidents on multiple levels, the playing joint terrorism task forces, undertaking hate crimes, investigations and gathering intelligence. experts who monitor extremism to, less likely nowhere near an end to the domestic threat connected to the israel-hamas war. brian todd, cnn,, washington. >> joining us now is cnn senior national security analyst -- a professor at harvard, university and former assistant to secretary for the department of homeland security. in that role, juliette, i know you have dealt with this a lot, but homeland officials are telling is that it is really peak in terms of whether it is actions they're worried about, or on line hates. there were star comments, today the fbi, homeland security, all backed up by data, now i argue we have already known this. it has been a palpable fear. obviously more acute in the jewish community right now. how do you assess the risk? how do you explain what is going on, not just in the united states, but around the world. >> so in the world. starting with the united states. there is definitely a heightened risk environment just based off what fbi director christopher wray said. we know it. you just have to go out and decide, and feel the tensions of a lot of communities right now in the united states. that threaten vinemont is heightened. we wouldn't call it specific, in other words it is not the synagogue, that synagogue, it is just a general heightened threat against the jewish community, and also as christopher wray said, the islamic community. so you are getting the two sides both feeling disempowered, and targeted by whatever hate is out there. specifically, on the jewish community of course, because the threats you are seeing targeted against synagogues and other -- maybe not specific, but an overall concern for there -- that is why you have seen heightened police presence, and other law enforcement presidents, and synagogues, jewish communities, and neighborhoods. >> now can you explain again something you have pointed us to this phenomenon unfortunately over last decade, online extremist groups have definitely amplified this type of hate. they have weaponized. it do we expect to be able to do anything about that? >> yes, so look, there is a difference between that hate of, a person out there spewing hate, then of course the target violence. we do not know what the difference between those two, but we certainly know that the pool is different. the people spewing hate, most of them are not going to go to violence. we do not like those people, right, that basically you are better off with that, pool just doing the things they do online, then those who would focus on violence. that focusing on violence of course is often disclosed online. that is redlawn forsman can step in, if someone increases or -- the threats are specifically targeting someone. so we are seeing actually some of the someone who went online targeting the jewish community has now been arrested. that is appropriate. you simply cannot do that in the united states under the guise of the first amendment, more political debate. >> absolutely. to that point, i want you to listen now to the governor of new york. reacting to a lot of what has gone on at cornell. listen. >> i hate to say, this i do not think this is the and yet. we have a long way to go to start restoring the civility, and the respect for different peoples religions and beliefs that has never been perfect. it certainly is in rapid decline since october 7th. >> you know, to her, point to your, point this is going on for a sentiment of time. in your experience, especially after 9/11, what can leaders do to help here? >> i'm so glad you asked that, because i believe that in particular, younger people, people who are on college campuses will receive a lot of this activity as well. they model their behavior, their tone, the way they talk about different communities off of us. i think it is of the adults, and it is incumbent on university presidents, professors, leaders in industry, leaders in ngos to try to tame the temperatures that have been unleashed in the last couple of weeks here in the united states. it is not to say you have to agree with everyone, but i don't think it helps either side to seem flippant about the violence against them. in other words, hamas did a horrible terror attack against israel, and also one can also believe that what is going on in gaza is impacting civilians and children. >> we will look to our leaders for some of that leadership by the time when everyone needs it. we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> coming up for us, hundreds of thousands of people in gaza have been displaced by the war. they are struggling to find adequate, safety and meet their own basic needs. the latest on the humanitarian crisis in gazaza, next. the power goes out and we still have wifi to do our homework. and that's a good thing? great in my book! who are you? no power? no problem. introducing storm-ready wifi. now you can stay reliably connected through power outages with unlimited cellular data and up to 4 hours of battery back-up to keep you online. only from xfinity. home of the xfinity 10g network. >> -- tuesday saying they killed a top hamas commander, but strike killed an unknown number of civilians, and laid waste to parts of the camp. doctors without borders says young children came into the hospital with deep wounds, and severe burns. one man is just 100 meters from the camp says he saw children carrying other injured children's bodies. that there were in fact bodies hanging from the rubble. many were hysterical, and dazed civilians walking around the camp. cnn's wolf blitzer asked the idf spokesperson why the camp was a target? >> do you know that there are a lot of refugees and innocent civilians, man, women, children in that refugee camp as well? >> this is the tragedy of war, wolf. as you know, we have been seeing, fridays -- >> now the idf claims they killed approximately 50 hamas fighters in northern gaza, and in a statement released on tuesday, the military says they have been targeting hamas leaders in the area using underground tunnels as a passage to the coast. they claimed to have seized what, vincent military clemente, intelligence documents in the process. the idf also says, two of their own soldiers were killed in gaza tuesday. the rafah crossing is now set to open wednesday. egyptian border official says and serious the wounded palestinians will be allowed through that crossing to be treated in hospitals in egypt. on the meantime, dozens of trucks carrying humanitarian aid and had got on tuesday, that was through the rafah crossing. israel says they only carried water, food, and medical, equipment and not fuel. the u.s. says it is a, start but it is only a fraction of course of the aid that people in gaza need desperately. secretary of state anthony blinken says the u.s. is working towards a goal of 100 humanitarian aid trucks a day to enter gaza, but he acknowledges that is just the bare minimum. now since israel declared war against hamas militants, some 1 million people, about half of gaza's population have been displaced from their homes. many are seeking shelter wherever they can find it. cnn obtained exclusive footage of one such makeshift shelter -- hospital in northern gaza. some 12,000 displaced people are camped out there. some abdulaziz reports, a warning, some of the images in this report are graphic. >> where do you go when the bombs won't stop? where do you shelter your family, when the shelters are full? for many gazans, the answer is a hospital. we had doctor shows us around. >> all that separates these families at the icu, is this door, he explains. these are not proper sterile conditions. some 12,000 displaced people are camped out in the hospital in northern gaza. every single person you see here has been told by israel's army to leave and move south. an evacuation order the u.n. previously called inhumane. this is not a place for children to play, this is a disaster, the doctor says. these are sick people, how can a man on a walk or be evacuated. hospitals are protected under international law. but israel claims hamas uses medical facilities as command centers. aid groups and palestinian officials deny these allegations. either way, this is still not a safe place. step outside of the doors, and this is what you face. nonstop israeli artillery and airstrikes. everyone here fears the explosions will only get closer. but there is nowhere else to run. across the street, desperate people steal basic supplies. the war in a suffocating siege is causing -- to break down the u.n. says. families cannot be expected to flee into this chaos, this father says. this is a war against our, children see how scared he is from the bombs. now we are alive, but tomorrow we could be dead. please save us, he pleads. less than a quarter mile away from the hospital, this is the aftermath of one of those strikes. residents pull people out of the rubble of their homes. they can depend only on each other. no one can call an ambulance. just try and carry him out on your shoulder, someone shouts. are my mom and dad alive, the wounded man asks. the sound of war never ceases. you could die trying to help the living. this is one neighborhood during one hour in gaza, a tiny glimpse into thethe humanity anf more than 2 million people that live here, casualty of a war so many did not choose. salma abdelaziz, cnn, london. >> now as the israeli military pushes further into gaza, casualties are expected to of course increase dramatically. that is raising fears that skirmishes with has blot near the lebanon border could grow ever more violent. our jim has more now from -- >> israeli soldiers case north towards lebanon, what they fear could be the next front of this war. and in fact, israel and hezbollah are already exchanging fire across the length of the israeli lebanon border. idf howitzers fall firing on targets, and hezbollah firing back. virtually every village we visit along the border has come under fire. >> when you travel along the israel lebanon border, utc things like this multiple times a day. the smoke, rising the flames from a strike. that is just across the border inside lebanon. not clear if that was outgoing fire from, lebanon or incoming from israel, we did just hear from the idf -- there is another explosion as we are speaking. we heard of another exchange of firing just a couple miles out here. not what you see along, they're not marks the border between israel on the side, lebanon on the other. >> the threat comes from further afield as well. we today, israel said its aerial high altitude missile defense system fired for the first time since the october 7th attacks. responding to a missile launch by houthi rebels in yemen. israeli officials see one nation behind all these attacks, iran. >> there are many actors who are acting at the behest of iran, including the houthis who are trying to challenge us, and to distract us from the war in gaza. we remain focused, we are focused on the war in gaza. >> gossip remains the main thrust but the idf is attacking inside lebanon and syria, multiple times a day, the strike the idf says hit hezbollah infrastructure. >> funerals held for the last two days in southern lebanon. hezbollah saying, nearly 50 of its fighters have been killed since the clashes began. jim, cnn, the israeli lebanon border. >> the u.s. senate has confirmed former treasury secretary -- as the new u.s. ambassador to israel. the obama administration, also served as white house chief of staff. to say the vote was 53 to 43 for him to fill the vacancy. now he faced stiff opposition from senate gop members over his involvement in obama's iran nuclear deal. senators lindsey graham and rand paul where the only republicans to vote to confirm him. still to come for us, the brother of a hostage shown in the video for hamas says he knows his sister isn't doing well. what else you told cnn about the situation. that is just ahead. >> hamas books for sometimes the group will release them for nationals held hostage in the coming days, land it comes after hamas request for some of their respective home countries -- through mediators. hamas has not clarified how many hostages will be released, or which countries they come from. now on monday the militant group released a video showing three women believed to be hostages, one of the woman to ban it if you will continue negotiations to free all hostages. though it is unclear if her -- it is clear she is not doing well. >> what we saw in the video is her in a very big distress. my sister is a calm person. seeing her like that, hearing her, means that she is not well. the fact that she is speaking does not mean that she as well. the fact that the people are now saying okay, they look good, that is exactly what they want us to think. everyone is okay. >> now in the meantime, the streets around some city hall have been filled with empty bed and cribs, each represent one of more than 200 missing people taken hostage on october 7th. more than three weeks after the hamas terror attack on israel, cnn's jake tapper spoke to israeli first responders who are struggling to cope with the trauma that they witnessed, and are sharing stories about the atrocities that they saw. a warning, some of the images and descriptions who are about to see here are disturbing. >> as the deputy director of the emergency operations for israel's a volunteer emergency rescue service, -- has seen many gruesome haunting scenes. but nothing could have prepared her for october 7th, when she came to the site of death and destruction at this kibbutz. bullets and -- were still flying, because hamas still controlled some of it, and wood for days. after being warned of a grenade, she entered a house where she tended to a wounded soldier. >> and i remember i turned my head, so the family, they died of -- and their parents were tied up in front of their kids. and they shot them. i did not have the time to film anything at that moment. >> how many people? >> there were four, two kids. a girl the same as my girls age, around 11. and something like a boy who is six years old. >> honestly at that moment, i just blocked my feelings. i understood that now i am a soldier, a robotic soldier if i want to survive that, and just to help as many people as we can. there was a little girl, around eight or nine years old. and they cut her hand over here. they just cut it all, no hand. suicidal breathing, she was just like shaking. and it -- [crying] i was not there. earlier to save her, she just launch so much blood for our. all by herself, no one was near her even. she was so afraid. her eyes. how old was she? around ten. around ten or 12. i don't know how to explain that. >> i know. i don't know how to explain that. i don't know what kind of evil demon can create that kind of operation. because they thought about everything. it was well organized and the world needs to know that right now. >> there's going to be people that her story and they say, how come we didn't hear about it until three weeks later. and is it just because he didn't want to talk about it? >> no after three weeks i understand the importance to speak about that. >> there are people out there who don't believe these firsthand account. >> i don't blame them, i don't want to believe it also, i want to sleep at night and i don't sleep yet. i don't sleep. >> and i don't blame them. >> as we were leaving, lenore introduced us to another volunteer and went to other volunteers that day. david bader, his first stop was -- >> when i saw her he tells us that people saw dead bodies, dozens and not the junction, i counted there were 24 bodies he said. there was also the body of a boy that was thrown. the stroller, the stroller of the baby. why? why would you kill him? >> he tells us that it was like a destroyed cemetery. that, injured blood everywhere in the houses, in the yards on the streets. you can't understand what i saw there, he says. it's impossible to understand. when >> he remembers a family that had been driving in a car. until tariffs kill bam. the children were charred. just charred he said. look at a child due to an adult, he asked. we he was strapped into his car seat inside of the car. he guessed that the tears took apart, shot and killed the members of the family and then, with a knife cut their throat. >> who a response like this to skeptics. >> it's a change that those people didn't come here to see what happened on that black saturday, he responds, get it out of my stomach, out of my head. everything that happened. why do we deserve this? dozens dead. the smell, even now it's still -- >> i want the entire world to know the entire world to know what hamas did, he says. children were killed. small children. kids that didn't even know what to say that or mama. they didn't even know how to say it. >> our thanks to jake tapper for that report. and for those who continue to talk to cnn about such horrific experienences. we will bebe right
