About an incident in gaza city. More than 100 palestinians have been killed while trying to get food aid in gaza city. These are images from the scene in the south west of the city. Joe biden described it as tragic and alarming as he spoke with the leaders of egypt and qatar. These are images from the scene in the southwest of gaza city. Eyewitnesses say a large number of people had approached the convoy of aid trucks as it passed a checkpoint, apparently trying to grab what they could. Since the war began, the amount of food getting into gaza has dropped dramatically, and aid agencies have warned of impending starvation. The Israeli Military released these aerial pictures.

Live now to tim heaphy, former lead investigator for the house january 6th select committee. Thank you so much forjoining us. I think for people who perhaps havent covered every twist and turn of the story, just explain to us why that january 6th select committee was so crucial to what we are seeing now . Facts are what makes cases and determines outcomes, and the select committee uncovered the core facts here.
