Home of the israeli Prime Minister of the most releases of videos of in this friday captive in multiple is tri city residential areas. In Southern Guns are as risk you as search for survivors. This route pounds has been law positions across the live in these border, the heaviest fighting since the war began. And far as small with this, ford is lim falls, title challenge is slipping away. They just want let you know to locate rivals every tend to remain 3 points, interest, a premier lease leader as far as the deeply disturbing dance. How the whitehouse has described reports of the mass graves in guns of its National Security advisor. Jack sullivan is now demanding ounces from his row along with you and you, and who have both cooled for an independent investigation. Now on wednesday, another 51 bodies were found on the grounds of a hospital in con eunice, more than 300 had been discovered since saturday are. Those reports were deeply disturbing. We have been in touch at multiple levels with the israeli government. We want answers, we want to understand exactly what happened. Youve seen some public commentary from the adf on that, but we want to know the specifics of what the circumstances of this were. And we want to see this thoroughly and transparently investigated so that the whole world can have a comprehensive answer and we, the United States can as well, i cant speak beyond that because of course, were in the early days of fully understanding what happened. Okay, so more of this is go straight to how to direct castro, who joins us now from washington, dc. And these are pretty strong woods. They, how much should we make of them . Well tom, they are strong words. The us say that its demanding answers to this, but i think whats notable here is what was and said. Jakes all over the National Security advisor didnt say who should be conducting this investigation, that he says should be thorough and transparent. Because of course, the un and the, and the you has demanded an independent investigation. So the question is, what the us support that step as well. And in fact, my colleague gave alexander, asked that specifically to the deputy Us Ambassador to the un that earlier in the day. And was told that while the us would speak with other countries and the photographs of these alleged atrocities, the us was not ready yet to call for an independent investigation, despite calls from other World Leaders to do so. In other weve known about these mess graves for some time. So was the white house speaking out about them now and will these words actually be met with any sort of action . Are right, well with the un High Commissioner of human rights, demanding an independent investigation with the you and with student voices now across Many American college campuses, calling for the protection of palestinians and against these mass graves. All of that is perhaps putting more pressure on the white house to speak more forcefully on this, but it is rhetoric up to this point. At the same time we just saw this morning, President Biden signed into law, another trudge of us military support to israel. So action wise, no, there has not been taken, but were hearing much of the same rhetoric as in the past when israel is accused of atrocities. And that the us saying that israel should be given a chance to investigate. And then little action done once such a investigation has been completed and day. Thanks so much heidi, heidi drug test, right . For us there in washington dc. Well, they have been multiple as strikes and rougher and Southern Guns are in just the past few hours. One of the strikes of the house and the opt in to can killing at least one person and wounding several others as they were rushed to hospital.

When the engines were brought to treatment as much soles in a rough on the is very minute, 3 attacks on the goals of strep has completely rammed up as a residential house was completely destroyed in the refuge account, as it calculated right now, the injuries are receiving right now, treatments in a way to hospitalized the pos, majority of casualties amongst abilities. Now, this is the area where the majority of jobs, this population has been told to stay and to remain done, what are to guarantee the own safety pump. What we can clearly record and that when does the past couple of weeks is play such a feasible yet tax ones that very densely populated area in light of the anticipated mediterranean cage. And that will be carried out by the is very minute treat within the coming days. That is the situation right now with the ground, this kind of city, you know, where less to go start of a, zoom out. Just a rough, rough kind of sewing in waste, jerusalem protest has gathered to demand Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu. And his government to mod has acute the release of the remaining captives in kansas rod police within deployed as they march towards government buildings. The protest erupt, it following the release of a video by mosse of 23 year old hersh, colbert, poland, who was taken from the Music Festival and this rattle on october, the 7th. But its smith has the date house. First go book. Poland has spent almost 200. 00 days detained, a multi described as an underground.

In rafa, its a reminder that hes really captives will be as much in the line of fire as a modem, one and a half 1000000 palestinians sheltering the border with egypt. Bernard smith islanders era, you dont keep bodies jerusalem. In the United States, there was a more confrontations between police and students during protest cooling for an in israels war on gaza. The whole day was skilful inside a demonstration at the university of Southern California in los angeles. Some is similar satans have played out of the campuses right across the country in recent dies and we have correspondents covering the approaches from coast to coast. Joan, hindrance the standing by for us at Columbia University in new york. The 1st its got a reynolds joins us from the university of Southern California. Well, can you just explain how tens things right now on campus . Well right now, on campus, as you can see behind me, there are several 100, at least a students who have rallied chanting of slogans in support of palestinian. The just step aside so that you can see what is going on. There are a lot of students standing around watching the city and flags being raised above the crowd and in the center there are students of us speaking into bowl horns of leading chance and making speeches. Then i see the cause of the crowd of students as i said, at least several 100 of them. No earlier today in the same area of the university of Southern California campus, a student protesters, set up tents as has been done and many other campuses around the country, including in berkeley and california in columbia. And then Campus Police arms campus. Police moved in to forcibly remove those tents. There were scuffles with protesters. Im not certain if people would change or not, but there certainly were very tent. Seems that some of that tension seems to have and theres a special source of sort of inflaming tension on this campus because usc last week decided that it was for a muslim woman, valedictorian speaker, from speaking at the graduation ceremonies to be held next month. That enraged a lot of people who said that she should be allowed to speak, she was the subject of an Online Campaign by a jewish activist and your students on campus here as well. Who said that she was a chance, i submitted something that for about some denied. But that really rolled up a lot of the students here as well as in faculty members and made us see a focal point of uh, the demonstrations and say it support a palestinian right here in Southern California. Okay, thanks so much for that. That is rob reynolds for us there at the university of Southern California. Were going to start with a story and go live now the joint a hindrance who is at Columbia University in new york. And despite these, the risk that weve seen that these purchase continue to grow, can you just give us a sense of exactly what it is like there at the moment . With a senior at columbia, which in many ways is the epa center of this protest movement is quite peaceful and quiet. As you can see, this is the encampment that the university has tried to clear. A 100 students were arrested last week. That was shortly after the University President , menu ship fig, spoke before congress. And congress was asking her about the concerns about jewish students on this and other campuses. But from there she ordered the arrests of students who were protesting. Here a 100 students were arrested. And then they re formed here, and they, they got a deadline again from this, from the University President to clear out by tuesday now theyve got another deadline on thursday. And as you can see, theyre not giving up. These are their signs. These are their students themselves, and just a few minutes ago, mike johnson, the speaker, the us house of representatives, was here speaking to the students who spoke to jewish students in a private meeting. And then came out and spoke to the students at the campus. And he condemned this movement, he condemned him, us and the students butram and they chanted back at him. So this is kind of a microcosm of that movement is going across the country right now. The university is negotiating with students. Thats why we are allowed in here. For the 1st time this week to this and whatever comes in that we dont know, but there is still a deadline for midnight on thursday. The University President has set for these students to clear out. And as you can see, they dont seem to be going anywhere. Yeah. Dont we know a number of students have been arrested sofa. Exactly. What have they been charged with and what has happened to them since they were arrested . A good many of them had been charged with trespassing and i should point out its not always just students. There are other young people and people of all ages that have joined in these pro palestinian pro chests. But the main charge that people seem to be charged with is trespassing. Of course, if theyre, if theyve thrown anything at police or anything, then the chargers just add on to that. But for the most part, they have been this is a private university. The University President decided that the protests were a clear and present danger. Those are her words and ordering. The protesters cleared out by police and thats a very dangerous mood here at columbia because it was in 1968 that the University President cleared out. Protesters violently with per lease when they were protesting the vietnam war, that president ended up having to step down afterwards. And those vietnam approaches of course, swelled and swelled. And that seems to be whats happening with these protests in a smaller sense. What were seeing is a growing Movement Across the us right now. And so far, for the most part, its peaceful when they get charged is when somebody decides they shouldnt be here in day. Okay, thank you so much for all of it says john henry and for us at Columbia University in new york. These ready armies. It has almost at least 4. He strikes on what the claims of his beloved targets in Southern Living on. Its the largest number of strikes carried out in a single day since the cross for the conflict began when as below opened up a front to help. Its a lie. How moss engagement, october and one tuesday. Heres what i launched as deepest striking to israel said hold. I has been following developments from marshall unit in Southern Living on a beloved on israel of border remains very much an active front line. These increase the tax and recent days, parts of a pattern of sporadic escalation yesterday has block carried out. Its deepest strike inside is really territory. Since it opened the front to help relieve its ally home us in garza on, in october, it hits its really military positions in arcada, just north of elk are some 15 kilometers from the border. And its statement. The armed group said that this was in response for israel targeting one of its members. There was a target to the assassination, yet another targeted assassination on tuesday. So hezbollah, trying to send the message to the israelis that expect further escalations if these targeted assassinations continue. What weve been seeing really in recent months is israel carrying out these drones strikes, taking out the field commanders fighters has well as infrastructure. Can lets hit the bank to our top story now. Now this is Gabriel Alexander asked for han hawk whose deputy Spokes Person for the un secretary general for his reaction to the discovery of mass graves at no site and l shape of hospitals in gaza. Here was their exchange, and there was another mass grave discovered at nasser hospital, 51 people. This now brings it up to more than 300. That if palestinians that have been pulled from mass graves at the 2 largest hospitals, an e u spokesperson today called for an independent investigation, volker turk is called for an independent investigation. Yesterday, a step step was asked about it. He called for an independent investigation. My question is, whats next . When will we see this happen . First, well have to see what kind of investigations are plan but, but our calls as used as you yourself know, did have been made and, and they stand um, uh, at this point. Uh uh, there are many entities on the ground including the World Health Organization, the trash committee, and the red cross, and the opposite of High Commission for human rights. Uh and uh and uh, they can follow up on any Rights Violations that may have occurred at the grounds of hospitals, but an independent, effective, and transparent investigation into the desk at nasir and ill ship a hospitals must be conducted. The World Health Organization has repeated its called for a hospitals, health workers, patients and civilians to be be protected, to have their basic human rights respected. Uh and as plans are reportedly being made for potentially further fighting, we ask that all parties continue to work to keep hospital safe. Can i have a couple of follow ups please for hon. Um, are any of the u. N. H agencies that are working in guys are right now, admittedly under very difficult conditions equipped to investigate mass graves. I dont believe that the situation on the ground is conducive to investigations at this point. Uh, again, uh that there needs to be a whole to fighting and this is something weve called for repeatedly. Okay, if i made another one, if you dont mind, because its very important is for an independent investigation to take place. Wouldnt need permission from israel for any of this goes across our work for any investigations to be effective. All of the parties in the area, uh that control access uh sufficient to conduct the investigation would need to agree to it. So hes real would have to agree to allowing any independent investigators and that seems to pose a very large problem, considering that israel is accused of perpetrating these crimes. How are they then going to agree to allowing and investigators to independent investigators that seems like it puts the un in a very, for lack of a better word, difficult position on. How are you going to get an independent investigation then . Well, again, this is something thats been true across the board with our investigations. Theres always difficulties in terms of places where conflict has occurred to get the access we need, but ultimately for any investigation to be meaningful. You need that access. Its kind of like a closer look now at l shape a hospital where some of the mass graves were found. Satellite images show the hospital complex and northern cause and before is rarely forces besieged to compound. This is an image of the issue of a hospi
