Says that 14 additional trucks carrying humanitarian relief have crossed into gaza for egypt. The first round of muchneeded aided toward gaza on saturday. The u. N. Estimates 60 of people in gaza, which is about 1. 4 million people, have been displaced in the two weeks since the start of this war. Special envoy from middle east humanitarian david earlier today on msnbc. Our expectation of the discussions at all sides starting tomorrow, you will see a continuous flow of assistance moving, we want to build it up to the levels necessary to begin to meet gazis needs. In the vatican city today, pope francis praying for all suffering, calling for more humanitarian aid for a few minute palestinians living in gaza. They also demand the release of all hostages being held by hamas. They also spoke today with President Biden. Meanwhile, on the ground, israels military launching a rare airstrike in the occupied west bank, Hitting Unoccupied israel says they targeted a terror cell which is organizing an imminent Terror Attack. Msnbc news has not independently verified that claim. Palestinian officials called it a, quote, dangerous escalation. Also today, Benjamin Netanyahu offered a stern warning to Militia Groups against attacking israel ahead of a anticipated Grand Invasion of gaza. They visited Israeli Soldiers today, near the border with lebanon. A warning to the hezbollah militant group, waging a war in israel as retaliation of a Grand Invasion in gaza. He vowed to, quote, cripple the iranianbacked terror group if it does get involved. Today, amid the press, Secretary Of State Antony Blinken says that he is concerned of the influence of iran. We expect that there is a likelihood of escalation by iranian processes directed against our forces, and against our personnel. We are taking steps to effectively defend our people, and to respond decisively if we need to. This isnt what we want. Its not what were looking for. We do not want escalation. We do not want to see a second or third front develop. We do not want to see our forces or personnel coming under fire. If that happens, we are ready for it. President biden received another briefing from his National Security team today as the pentagon increases its Military Presence in the region to defend israel if needed. Also in israel today, a tribute to the lives lost during the october 7th Terror Attack. Students at Tel Aviv University filled an auditorium with pictures of more than 1000 people either killed or kidnapped by hamas. Joining us now from tel aviv, and missing news correspondent paula gorani. What more can you tell us about this new round of humanitarian relief . As you mentioned, 14 trucks, which is still really a trickle in terms of what is needed inside of the gaza strip. 20 trucks crossed over 48 hours ago. Today, just a few vehicles. They were carrying some supplies, but as we have been saying and reporting on over the past few days since the announcement, the first 20 trucks made it into the gaza strip. Typically, the territory would receive about 300 to 400 vehicles per day. Because of the bombardments, the total siege and blockade of the gaza strip, the lack of water, medicine, if you, there is a much higher need. Its a drop in the ocean. Although there are promises to increase the aid going into gaza, the logistics required, the number of checks required at the Rafah Crossing, doesnt necessarily a quid to handle this amount of commercial transit. It might take some time to reach the require levels. As far as the Ground Incursion is concerned, this is something that we are all keeping an eye on here. We understand it from the israeli Prime Ministers office, confirmed by the french presidency. Emmanuel macron, the french president , will be making a visit to israel on tuesday. The expectation therefore is that the Ground Incursion by the Israeli Military will be delayed at least until then, as it would be unusual for military offenses to take place with a visiting head of state. Lastly, what i will say about this potential of a propagation, or of an opening of the second front in north of israel. There is a war of words right now with netanyahu saying theyre provided fights on two fronts. And the Iranian Foreign minister as well, he is warning the u. S. And israel against doing anything that would cause the situation to spiral out of control. Alicia . We are going to continue to follow the dynamic throughout the show. In tel aviv, thank you. Breaking news this hour, the nbc just issued a security law, are saying that american citizens who wish to depart lebanon should leave now. This comes as tensions rise along the northern border with lebanon. Thats where we find nbc news Foreign Correspondent matt bradley with the latest on the threat from the hezbollah military group. Still today, more exchanges of fire between lebanon and israel between the dominant force here, hezbollah. Like hamas, they are backed by iran and Israeli Forces in the north. Just today, we heard it six hezbollah fighters have been killed. That means that the death toll since october 7th, it is 25 hezbollah fighters killed. This pales in comparison with the kind of fighting that we have seen around the gaza strip, and in the southern, or western israel. It is Still Holding the potential for much greater fighting as we have been seeing. The fact is, we have been seeing this style of fighting for the past few weeks. It has been increasing in tempo. That is why the israelis just today have announced that they are going to be evacuating 14 additional villages along their border with lebanon. This is after they have already extended the buffer zone of evacuations from several kilometers. Aggressively sending, that and then theyve even started to evacuate major cities in the north of 20,000 people. All of these are state funded evacuations. They have been doing the same thing in the area around the gaza strip. At the same time, theyve been more Military Assets of north of the border. Tanks, more soldiers. All of this is preparing for what could become an offensive, or some sort of escalation by hezbollah. Again, like hamas, it is backed by iran. Both of these groups backed by iran, and there are also countries, military groups throughout the region backed by iran. We have seen them taking potshots at americans, those forces as well. It all goes to show that throughout the entire region, we are seeing an uptick, not just in the fighting. But between gaza, israel, and amongst the iranianbacked socalled axis of resistance, which includes hezbollah and hamas. But looking at syria, hutu fighters in yemen, and a resurgence in iraq have also been firing at u. S. Troops over the past several days. All of this seems to be on the precipice of a wider regional war. As a deterrent, the United States in part, not one or two Aircraft Carrier strike groups. Just off my left shoulder, back to the u. S. Theyve been trying to deter any expansion of the war. A lot of folks, here that sounds like a threat. Its one of the things that plays into that calculation, a hard calculation. What were hearing is going on in tehran right now. Whether or not the military groups throughout the region, the socalled axis of resistance, theyve been incubating for the past several decades. And increased cost to the iranian government and defensive structure is. Whether or not they will allow those forces to come in and it defend the gaza strip, or will they hang back and watch what goes on. All of this, like everything in the region, now depends on what israel does in the gaza strip in the coming days or hours. Nbcs matt bradley for us in lebanon. Matt, thank you. Joining me now, retired Army Lieutenant colonel alexander vindman. Institute for of reform to american leadership. Also the Foreign Affairs for the night United States National Security council. One of the reasons i wanted to speak with use specifically as because of bidens pending request for bundled funding for is use rail and ukraine in one bill. Senator minority leader Mitch Mcconnell, signaling that he supports that. Take a listen. I know that there are some republicans in the senate, and maybe more in the house did think that ukraine is somehow different. And even as all interconnected. The notion that europeans are not doing enough, they have done almost 90 billion dollars. They are housing a lot of refugees that have escaped. I think our nato allies in europe have been doing quite a lot. Colonel vindman, i want to take that into a few parts. Tell us more about the way that those conflicts are, to use his word there, interconnected. Strangely enough, i agree with both Mitch Mcconnell and President Biden. They are connected in these are the democratic and liberal regimes in hamas. It is a proxy of iran. Russia is, of course, one of the fundamental states looking to abandon the international system, attacking its neighbors violently in hybrid warfare with the west. These are attacks on the International Border that the u. S. Has been leading since the end of world war ii. It is potentially an unraveling of u. S. Leadership and an unraveling of the peace and security established in the post world war ii era. In that regard, they are quite similar. Of course, russia is in its way leading the charge. I think the conditions of russia attacking ukraine and this war between russia and ukraine continuing for 20 months has in certain ways probably emboldened regimes to exploit that opportunity, exploit the perceptions of a lack of resolve from the u. S. And in that community. I think hamas sees on those kinds of environmental conditions that the liberal or populist movements between israel itself, netanyahu, shifting so many forces between the west bank to advance those sellers, and all of these kinds of things, theyre coming together. I see a lot of commonalities. Of course, they are quite distinct as well. Those are the key similarities. And when you talk about the lack of results, the perceived lack of resolve globally, your reaction to mcconnells comments own republicans in the senate, and more in the house, the think that ukraine is somehow different. There are obviously wrong. It is hard to rationalize or make any clear kind of rational judgment for why these republicans are saying it. I know why theyre saying it. They are saying it because for donald trump, ukraine is different. Israel was different. For donald trump, he has a deep and a miss for ukraine. And a deep affinity for russia. I think that from that standpoint, they are just carrying the water for donald trump, and therefore for putin. In reality, they are not so different. I was a big proponent for bringing these two different conflicts together. Again, as an attack on the u. S. Led world order, a liberal order, recognizing that there is an environment of either increased stability or increased chaos. U. S. Involvement with the additional stability, u. S. Absence would be creating the environment for chaos and rules of the jungle. From that standpoint, it makes lots of sense. Why the fringe element of republicans, and also for a certain extent, the far left democrats as well. You are talking about the far left wing of the democratic partys. Its also in this view that somehow, israel is different than ukraine. Somehow, israel is the belligerent. And in fact, the victim of a Terror Attack by a terror organization. We should identify these very fringe movements on both the right and left, understanding that theyre operating in certain regard, to the same theories. I wanted to ask you, you mentioned iran in the first answer. I want to pull that thread out, especially in light of what we heard from secretary blinken on meet the press. Talk to us about the implications of this conflict for iran, and their relationships both in the region, with europe, and with the United States. Sure. Ive not seen anything decisive about iran being directly involved. I would imagine that they had some situational awareness. At minimum, over the course of the year, providing Those Resources For Hamas taking that action. Now, potentially instead of exploring the possibilities of exploiting the chaos in the region, to harm israel, to undermine israel, to harm the u. S. Interests as well. I would say that there is a low probability that iran is going to get directly involved. Near no probability. The consequences would be very powerful strikes by israel and u. S. On iran. I think there are possibilities of factions for proxies. You could see that unfolding, relatively low level. Whether theyre houthis in yemen, or hezbollah in lebanon. I think that they are probing for those weaknesses. Again, the possibility of a larger scale confrontation, its not all that high. Israel is going to take that Decisive Action against hamas. It is going to root out them as a Terror Entity in the future. Its really one interest in the direct fight in that regard. Israel might be heavy in seeing that retribution, seeing that there is no possibility of future attack. I think that we have to be prepared for this, looking at carrying the strike. Trying to ward off hezbollah for making these kinds of attacks or the largescale attacks, same thing from iran. This is likely to be the next phase of this. Is likely to be a large Ground Defensive by israel to neutralize hamas. That is really the only option, to conduct a Ground Offensive to neutralize hamas. Lieutenant colonel alexander, thank you for your time, for joining. Us next, with congressional eight israel at stake, republicans are still struggling to find a leader. New details on who wants the speakers gavel and if they have the votes. Plus, a look at the social media accounts gaining momentum online despite rampant misinformation they post about the israelhamas war. And later, trump in trouble in georgia and in new york. Where a judge has find him and set further slips could land trump behind bars. First, Jessica Layton with the other big stories we are watching this hour at msnbc. Jessica . Thanks, alicia.

And we need to look at one another and solve the problem. Weve got to get back to work immediately. We can have in our conference. Its going to start with a fresh voice in leadership. Thats my tenth turn in congress. This is probably one of the most embarrassing things ive seen. They are embarrassed. 18 days and counting the republicanled House Of Representatives has been without a speaker. Resume to move past thists paralysis. Today, Nine Republicans Cially entered their names for the speakership, all but president ial election. The 20 austin scott of georgia and House Majority whip tom emmer of minnesota. Amr is the highest ranking republican race, considered a front runner. He has the former speaker is backing, not backing him or former president trump. Republican conference plans to meet tomorrow, putting votes on speaker candidates tuesday at the earliest. With us now, msnbc political analyst and former republican congressman from florida, david jolly, and msnbc political contributor matt dab, the founder of country over party, and former Chief Strategist for the bush cheney 2004 president ial campaign. David, before i even get into, like, what is happening, set the stakes right now. Nearing three weeks without a speaker in this congress. Yeah, the stakes we are facing our critical legislation that must be passed. Eight israel, eight ukraine and the federal budget and the house cannot do that without a speaker. That is the urgency. I do think we are entering a stage where House Republicans understand they do have to make the final decision. Whats ultimately handicapping them, im more up to mystic, i dont wish republicans had control the, house im more optimistic they figure out this week for one reason. They have gone through all the hope highprofile candidates and now they are in the realm that nobodys heard of and nobody knows. That is the safest place republicans could be in this moment when you pull back the as you mentioned, you see people who not to certify the election you see a heart right ideologil agenda. We may have somebody that is a might coalesce around. And the challenge is one of process. They still have this rule that if you get 51 behind closed, doors the whole caucus goes to the floor for a vote. But they dont have the 2 17 when they get there this week is do we see them require 217 behind closed doors so they dont punch themselves in the face when they get hit in the face when they get to the house floor. We will see. We will see indeed. Matt, Kevin Mccarthy, hes tried to pin this chaos on what he calls the crazy eight, Congressman Matt Gaetz is included. Im old enough to remember when mccarthy capitulated to that group in order to become speaker in the first place. What does it say about mccarthy, what does it say about the republicans who gave him the boot . They didnt have a clear replacement or clear plan in mind. Yeah, i think their short term memories and then there is what mccarthy did enabling what he calls the crazy eight it was not last year, it was this year. He did it other earlier this year. And, so i think, many of us talked about this, im sure david did, Kevin Mccarthy created this mess. He created this mess by Capitulating To donald trump early on after the 2020 election, after he criticized and then went down to maralago and did this and then hes capitulated to the crazy part of his caucus, which seems to be growing and growing and becoming more evident to more and more people. It may actually become a majority of the caucus that is just off this Anti Government doesnt care about what happens, welcomes the shutdown and all that. But this is a mess Kevin Mccarthys own making. Or any rational person would have saw this coming earlier in january as he did this. It just came to fruition. So he says hes embarrassed. What he really means is i have embarrassed myself. David, mccarthy endorsing amr, trump endorsed jordan. Of course we saw how that worked out for jim jordan. Now trump rallying his allies against so emmer. I wonder if this is a test of trumps hold over the party, or if this is yet another example of what weve seen, which is he doesnt have enough power to build it off. But he has just enough power to tear it down. Yeah, thats exactly right, alicia. This also speaks to the very small majority of republicans have. A loss of ten people who follow the former president is enough to withhold the speakership from tom emmer or anybody else. This is where that rule comes into play where emmer may get 51 , though it could take a while with nine different candidates. Lets presume hes the front runner. That trumpist wing of the party and of Conservative Media has already come out and said no way to tom emmer because he did not vote to decertify the election. Hes not a good enough republican. That might be enough to kill emmers options. For instance, when trump endorsed jordan over scalise, it wasnt enough to get jordan there, but it was enough to kill scalises bid. If its not emmer, think you have to look at kevin hern or mike johnson who led 100 plus conservative caucuses and republican study groups. Maybe byron donalds, though hes only been there for a very short time. Jack bergman, a retired three star in his 70s would be a very different touch. Here is the bottom line. I said this when people said jim jordan would be far worse than mccarthy. They are all bad, alicia. The only difference between mccarthy and jordans mccarthy would take a while to get to where jordan was. Jordan started with the authoritarian Anti Democratic crazy. I just took a while for mccarthy together. Its the same for all these candidates. They would all end up being a speaker who ultimately gets the where jim jordan starts. That is the danger we face. Matt dowd, im invested in the story because i want to government that actually functions, having a speaker in place get us back to where we were in the status quo. Thats not necessarily a Republicanled Congress that can deliver. You would definitely not fit in the gop caucus if thats what you, want a government that works. I think thats what weve come to. I think the speakers race shows this is a caucus filled with Performance Artists who have no idea or have desire of any type of governance. And they as soon send out social media post, take a Wrecking Ball to what they possibly can. That is become the majority of the caucus. But i think it demonstrates is Donald Trump Holds sway over the caucus because the gop voters hold sway over the caucus. And they are aware donald trump is as we can see in the president ial race and any number of issues in this, the problem donald trump has in the gop has is the same thing evidenced itself in 2022 which is you can dominate a primary with a new nominee the kari lake and other prominent candidates who have a very different difficult and at times a possible time winning an election. They can dominate within a caucus and then they go out to a Broader Group where they need 217 total votes, and thats where they run into a wall in this. It is Donald Trumps got 80 Approval Rating among Republican Voters, Republican Voters follow him. Donald trump leads republican loaders voters and its where they want to go. But in the end, they cant get to a majority status. That becomes the fundamental problem. David jolly, matt dowd, as this unfolds this, week im sure we will be hearing a lot for both of you. Thank you both so much for your time tonight.

New today, Donald Trumps Tax Fraud Trial is canceled tomorrow due to covid exposure. s proceedings resume in new york tuesday. Trump faces serious penalties if he lashes out at witnesses or members of the court. Again, the new york judge has already fined trump 5,000 for violating his gag order. He says the next slip up will send trump to jail. The judge telling trump last week, quote, this court is way beyond the warning. Stage trump, meanwhile, is getting a federal interference case, the d. C. Judge has paused restrictions on trumps speech while he is here. Joining me now msnbc contributor and former watergate Hashtag Sisters In Law Podcast and author of the watergate girl. Jill, what are trumps chances of getting the d. C. Gag order permanently lifted . None. Its a simple answer. It will be reinstated because he is a criminal defendant. He isnt anything else in that courtroom but a criminal defendant. Criminal defendants cannot taint the jury pool, threaten witnesses, threats in court personnel, they simply cannot. Be allowed to. Unfortunately, judges are very limited because no one wants to create a horrendous uprising of his supporters by putting him in jail for this. Everyone wants to wait until a jury of his peers convict some and he goes to jail for the crime, not for that. But the penalty is going to have to go from 5000 to 15,000 to 500,000. I dont know what the amount is that would make him stop doing what he does. It was inevitable he would violate the gag order. It is inevitable that he will violate it again. We know from the e. Jean carroll case that even millions of dollars in a fine doesnt stop him. He after he got fined. This next verdict for him in that case is going to be an even higher fine. At some point, maybe money will work. But at some point, its going to have to be moving the trial date up or jailing him. Speaking of money, in a fundraising email today, trump repeated one of his most often used lies, saying the federal gag order is about silencing his supporters, not about silencing him. But why doesnt that make any sense . It doesnt make any sense at any level. Its not just as a lawyer, but as a citizen, think about it, it isnt silencing anything except illegal behavior. If we could focus on exactly what is being silenced, it is threats to a jury, threats to witnesses, threats to court personnel. If i was representing any ordinary client, not named trump, that person wouldve been held in contempt and jailed a long time ago. But i have to admit that, you know, as you talk to person people who are judges, no one wants to take on putting him in jail for contempt, even though they know they would for anyone not named trump. So hes probably going to unfortunately get away with more than anyone in this country who is thinking about justice, whos thinking about facts, then they would like. But its going to have to be increasing penalties until nothing else will work and that they have to go further than that. Jill, let me ask, you in trumps new york trial, Michael Cohen expected to testify this week. How useful is cohen likely to be as a witness . You know, people have said, whos going to believe Michael Cohen . Well, i believe Michael Cohen. I think he has facts that have been confirmed and corroborated over and over again by the documents. He can tell a narrative, he can put it to a jury in a way that they can hear a story which they will believe and understand. And then the documents confirm everything that he is saying. I think he will be a very persuasive witness. I think its interesting donald trump is returning to the new york courtroom to confront Michael Cohen, who i do not believe will be frightened at all by him. He has taken his stand, he has come forward. He is the one who alerted everybody to the fact that he was escalating the value of things for purposes of insurance and deescalating them for tax purposes. That proved to be true. I think he will be a very credible witness and he will hurt donald trump a great deal. One of the last point you made there, do you think it is a test of trumps gag order . Everything is a test of his gag order. I do think so. As i say, i just dont think you can let any defendant and he has to be treated as a defendant. People are now calling him mr. Trump or defendant trump, not former president trump. He has to be treated like a defendant because justice means hes not above the law, justice means he is treated equally with any other defendant. That is very important to our system of justice. I still remember a time when facts mattered and justice prevailed, when bipartisanship meant people corroborated got together and they got to middle point. I think thats where we will have to head. You are looking for a collaborated, it is always the word i go to when im going to corroborated. Jill winebanks, as always, thank you so much for being with us.

In a Breaking News event, how do you know which information to trust . In the case of the israelhamas war, new reacher suggests the social media platform x, formerly known as twitter, is contributing to misinformation on some of the most unreliable count on that platform are being promoted by the sites own owner, elon musk. That is enabling those accounts to keep spreading misinformation, some ultimately outperforming the reputable outlets. You researchersom the University Of Washington tell nbc news, quote, at its core, what we are looking at here is a different visionofhat news is. Its, fast its unvettd its very often an sourced. There is every indication that the shift is not accidental and that its part of a vision of what news is going to be on act. Nbc news Senior Reporter who wrote that story, she joins us now. Brandi, who is spreading this misinformation . Who is behind these accounts . Well, theres two parts to that answer. The first thing is who are these new elite breaking these accounts where a lot of people on ex are getting their news around israel and hamas war. So, these accounts are pretty new accounts. And they are run not from news organizations, but from really political dissent formers, people whose job it is to disinformative out politics and whats going on. And they are weird, we have some mens rights activists, people who are misogynists and spent a lot of their time before this war promoting we the misogynist influencer andrew tate, a rightwing pr guy from poland. Its this hodgepodge of people utilizing what musk has built twitter, or acts, into now. They are utilizing it just as its incentivize on the platform, to get you fast, sometimes violent, often wrong information. The second part of that answer is, you know, who is behind this . Musk is behind this. Musk has built a new ex, the old twitter, not used to be missions on trying to give you reliable information, even though it was coming fast. People used to care about it and musk now does not like traditional media. He is against the news in general. These are the people that he thinks are the future of news. Thats what we are getting. Brigitte, i think if you are, as i am, a user of the platform that feels apparent in the user experience. Explain to me, but for someone who understands the background working of this and someone who doesnt use the platform how musks specific changes to the site have contributed to the problem you are discussing. Yeah. So we used to have a lot of systems in place. Twitter used to spend a lot of time and a lot of energy and employ a lot of people whose jobs it was, especially in Breaking News situations, to keep the platform as reliable as possible. You can imagine why this is really important on voting day or why its really important when there is a hurricane coming to your area and you need reliable information and quickly. The big indicator of that reliability used to come with a check mark. That used to mean verified. Whether you were the department of sanitation in new york or the president of the United States or a journalist, you had a blue check, park meaning that twitter vetted, you knew you were who you were. And that was helpful in times of crisis. It was helpful in crisis situations and Breaking News situations. Now that check has been stripped as a sign of reliability. What he has done is given everybody who gives 8 to subscribe to twitter their subscription service. Now they get that check mark. What we had the other day, for example, we had a person with a blue check mark saying i am a reporter from al jazeera and im on the ground. They were spreading things that just werent true. And that they had a blue check mark and that tweet went wild. It went viral and people were really believing this is from a person on the ground. You can imagine the kind of propaganda and lies and misinformation that can come when you dont know who is behind an account. And, so i think that is the biggest indicator of what he has done to the site. But there are others as well. We used to have a trending bar that was curated by professionals, many of them who used to be in use, who would make sure people are seeing up to date information that was pertinent to the moment. Thats gone. What has replaced that and replaced that curation, you know, i think its really funny, musk tucks all the time about how this is free speech. But its not free speech. Its not like everything is just being put out there and we can decide. The accounts were talking about have been promoted, reply, to interacted with, and in some cases outright elon musk told us 100 60 million, follow these accounts because this is the best news you are going to get. We are still getting it, the curated experience, we are just getting that curation from elon musk. Ive got about 30 seconds left, brandi. Your advice to someone who still wants to utilize this platform but doesnt want to get sucked into misinformation . I would say, for, one not be on the platform. Im hardly on it anymore unless i have to be for work. If you have to be for some reason, i would create one of the last things they have is the ability to create lists. I would create a list of all the journalists and the outlets that you know and trust. I would only look at the curated list that i curated myself. That is the one thing you can do to fight back against musks curation, curate your own. I will be doing that tonight, someone on threads just messaged me to say, come to threats, theres just not quite enough people there. Yet nbcs brandy zadrozny, as always, thank you so much, brandi.

Back to our top story tonight, a fresh round of aid, albeit a trickle, allowed to cross into gaza from egypt. United nations officials saying a new convoy 14 new tricks trucks crossed the border. Today a Health Officials warn its a fraction of the amount they needed to stave off humanitarian crisis. Also today, the Idf Reporting One Israeli Soldier was killed and three more were wounded today in a preliminary raid in gaza. This comes as the Israeli Ministry military continues to prepare for unexpected Ground Invasion. Joining us, now nbcs raf sanchez, he is in ashdod in southern israel. Ralph, what about the 14 new trucks that entered gaza today . Any closer to reach an agreement to let more aid into the city . Its an encouraging sign, its the second day that aid trucks have made it from egypt into the Rafah Crossing to gaza. Like you said, alicia, this is just a fraction of what the 2 million civilians inside gaza need. Weve been speaking to people in gaza. They say none of this aid has reached them. They are in need of food. They are in need of water. Critically, israel is saying there is no fuel included in these deliveries. Israels concern that fuel will fall in the hands of hamas, it will be used by this Terrorist Organization to continue its war effort. But the United Nations is saying they have three days of fuel left. Once they run out, they say, if their humanitarian efforts will completely collapse. You will see the lights go off at hospitals, diesel is whats needed for Power Stations to keep those lights on. The United Nations is saying fuel is the absolute lifeline here. If there isnt a deal to get the fuel through, then they are not going to be able to deliver the rest of the aid, alicia. Ralph, what are you hearing about that raid into gaza . Well, it looks like its an initial sort of Precursor Incursion ahead of what we expect that some point will be a much larger Ground Invasion. We have been standing here for weeks saying the Ground Invasion feels imminent and it remains true that there are Israeli Forces massed at the gaza border. It has become a bit of a Guessing Game now exactly when israel might go in. This would already be a complicated Military Operation under the best of circumstances. But there are 200 israeli hostages in gaza. One of the questions hanging over israeli decisionmakerss does it make sense to delay the invasion in order to allow more time for negotiations . We saw those two americans, a mother and a daughter, released on friday. Hamas is saying it is prepared to released two elderly israelis in the coming days. Not clear if they actually have any intention of following through on that or not. Its also become a little bit of a diplomatic guessing. Game the conventional wisdom here is that israel is unlikely to launch this Ground Invasion when there is a western leader in town. We had both President Biden and british pipe in History She Sunak In Israel Last week. We were expecting french president Emmanuel Macron and the dutch Prime Minister here in the coming days. That is being interpreted as a possible sign that Israel Intends to delay this invasion, at least until those leaving at least until the middle of the week. Its very possible they might surprise us they might surprise the french and the dutch. We could wake up to find this invasion is underway even while those foreign leaders are there. Alicia .
