5:08 pm
on the ground here, including the relentless air is tracts, the ongoing, heavy artillery selling of the eastern parts of the gaza strip. everything happened at the international court of justice. this town, it's pretty much insignificant because the killing machine continues to create more tragedies, caused further civilian casualties and forcing people into more in force displacement right now. the priority for the vast majority of people here is an end to this mass rapid, rapid mass killing of innocent people across the gaza strip. what, what happened on the ground? is it quite a repair a pull? we're talking about the constant attacks on health care facilities at a point not really have or if you didn't look for operating at the lowest capacity possible, leaving the entire garza through without any health care service. it's very for years to con the attacks on academic institutions, including a basic education institution as well as universities. 5 of the 6 universities
5:09 pm
across the gusts of have been destroyed completely. that's a deliberate attacks on academia and on the future of younger generation across the gaza. for something that will affect the how the, the site it progresses, social economically living alone, how to prosper in the future. and the fact that there are we're looking at thousands of people have the, are missing and it's a trapped under the rubble of those who are being killed. those are being separated from their parents what, what needs to be heard right now for from the, from people's side here is an end to this ongoing tragedy that is caused by it is really a military. the i c j is there is an important step forward. you bringing the uh, the is relevant to accountability yet nothing is happened on the ground. what we see, and right now it's completely the opposite. every time there is something going on on the international or you know, whether it's the ice is you or do you want security council right away? there is a surge and the tax, any quite intensity in terms of a scale of magnitude and the level of destruction costs. so just as we speak,
5:10 pm
we hit, we clearly hear the constant explosions and sounds of our tillery and the northern part of the site, right? refugee cans, as well as the ongoing dark smoke rising in the skies. above the valley are things you can more people are dying because of the attacks by these taco drones and as the whole neighborhood, the central parts of robust city, all of this happening while there is hearing going on at the i c j right now. and honey, i'm going to talk to you about they, they the attacks and somebody. and because this is not the 1st time that they're having a tax there, and we understand that more than a $100000.00 people are being forced to flee jamalia that the, the, the region there because of the attacks just talk us through the latest is on those as well, those who have been forced out of their homes are from the value of refuge account . this is not the 1st time it's happening. it happens repeatedly before, but what's going on right now,
5:11 pm
they are being sharply ordered by this very military. and these a talk of drones are chasing them outside the record. you come all the way to the city, mainly or the western part of garza city. but those who are trapped inside evacuation zones that these are the honor. what schools the underway is the united nations for palestinian refugees turn. it's educational facilities then an un headquarters into shelter supports for displaced. families are without food or basic supplies for the past 6. they just something that the world did not care about, but those on their military siege, nothing is going inside the account that our, our out of it, the only those who are that who are forced into displacement. all of this happening was there is an intense bonding campaign across the refugee camp itself. civil defense, a crew of the members on the ground reported they've been able to collect at least 96 bodies of from the streets of value of refuge account. and that's only the areas where they are able to get to other people are still inside the bomb. tom's on,
5:12 pm
under the rumbles inside evacuation centers that are, they are not able to get to their it. there are challenges there is there are difficulties that the civil defense, the crew members undergrad. they are facing, including paramedics, who are, who are unable to get to areas where there's really military is a station on non running district that for years at military campaign. there's also one, it's a shocking ins event going on right now. there's really another 3 as soon as it leaves an area where it is position, it runs into setting the whole area on fire, further damaging residential buildings, public facilities. oh, this is just feeds into one conclusion, making the northern parts and garza city quite uninhabitable and eventually force people into explore of him because there is no means of life left for anyone to stay in the northern part or gauze. the city of right now we're seeing the same scenario happening in rough i city. although we did a sensor part of the,
5:13 pm
of the city within the past few days. honey, thank you very much indeed. that's honey. welcome to talking to a some dental bala in central gaza. i was finally mentioned, northern guys are missing some of the worst bodies in months in early february is really forces withdrew from northern gaza, saying it had destroyed homeless battalions there. but these really minute training re enter the area on monday and resume shelley some a bunch of it explains what's been happening in the crowd which evaluated refugee camp palestinians have very lifting food award to no medical services and nobody else to go in his regular palms. keep following him . many civil defense workers have been killed, wounded, arrested, those dest struggle to reach the wounded. as there are no lights or even street that are left, the thing is really well things beyond the house with 30 people were taken shelter
5:14 pm

those as arrived. we'll have to keep moving as one place after another comes into attack. he'll equipped in short staffed hospitals, including alexa, come olives, one employee the hospitals are struggling with the high number of patients. and physician is miserable because it is always, always because it's a actually, it was with an we are still working in it. in spite of the shortage over the admissions, the, because the sports of what the for him and the because of the close on nicholas gates, we are completing your muscle v short daniel. these indications is really made of disclosure of falls crossings into gauze. that means literally couldn't get in the us as it was able to deliver some through it's new floating pit, but that's fall from enough for 2000000 palestinians trapped in the strip and to continue spun, bought some of them jobby houses their view. i central combine says the 1st
5:16 pm
shipments of age have entered guys using the newly built floating peer, which you monetary and agencies that say deliveries by land remain the most effective way to reach palestinians in need. capital l, as on the reports from you and headquarters in new york, the united states says the floating dock is now anchored near gaza and ready to receive maritime h shipments for the united nations to distribute the un on thursday said it is still finalizing operational plans how to do so that reiterated that land crossings can bring in more aid, all right, much faster, to stave off the horrors of famine. we must use the fastest and most obvious route to reach the people of gaza. and for that we need access by land. now, the un says right now, the main land crossings and guides are remain either closed, unsafe or not logistically viable. and even if a drug skit in the lack fuel to get to places to distribute it. basically the
5:17 pm
bottom line is it's the only small amounts of food are getting in and, and in terms of fuel the fuel imports have, for all practical purposes stopped we, us, but we need more fields, humanitarian organizations echo the sentiments of the un that land nazi should be the focus. there are hundreds of trucks waiting on the other side of rough, a crossing the main land route to get that, that previously we were getting aid into gaza. and, you know, filled with fluid filled with medical supplies, and they're not being allowed through. what we need is for israel to reopen all of the crossing points into gaza, all of the land crossing points into casa, and to allow unfettered and unrestricted access. he's really openly hostile to the un, even killing a un security officer and wounding another in rough at this week. this calls into question how safely the un could deliver aid. united nations is in a very difficult situation where they're being expected to provide. for example,
5:18 pm
this humanitarian supports the people gaza at the same time. and they have to provide for the security and safety of their staff members, even when you have the opening of the support even us, you have more a come in. even if you have the fuel and the ability to distribute it, you still have this critical issue that is really, really prevalent on the ground and cause or right now, which is, you know, the communication with the is really military and the ability to safely deliver this in and that is the real problem that the un faces right now. rushing to come up with a plan on how to safely deliver aid from a loading dock. it didn't build, didn't request and doesn't even think is an ideal way to get a into gaza. and could be nothing more than a costly distraction. gabriel is on auto elders here at united nations in new york . so i had an autism uneasy comments troops arrived from funds to teach the french
