A socks across the ukraine. Times the fighters and me in mars who have transformed from a peaceful, urban protest movements into a fighting force. The welcome to the news, our israel has continued to bond, but i saw the rest of gauze. Us palestinians remain trapped in the strip. The cut on the side and crossing has not been reopened for humanitarian aid, but is really forces or in control of the palestinian side of the Border Crossing with egypt. Meanwhile, the un secretary general has worn that a full scale invasion of what i thought would be a humanitarian catastrophe. Under the rest of gaza, reduced to rubble, there is no, were safe for people to go. Thought about as soon begins our coverage from. But i saw the move. Yes, again, these palestinian families in rough, grep, what will they have following forward is from the east really minute treat, evacuation or risk death. All the, all one of my families made up of 4 people. There are also 4 others of my brothers family, totaling 8. Where can we go . I havent even taken down my tent. We need money to take it out of money here. Were forced from central another and cause that this case is really bombardment. There what told roughly what to provide safety with is very minute 3 strikes here. Many are leaving. Who will come with the i was in this place from ill shoot you a on the sierra 10 to daniel bella. Rafa and this will be the 5th displacement on monday. We have no idea where well go. The situation is the bed of real quick and see throughout the night, which shows over our heads is very tanks have blocked the roof on board, crossing, floating show cold, and any essential 8 coming into the street in a lot, blah, blah, blah blah. The closure of the roof are crossing has prevented the entry of trucks carrying mates and medical equipment and fuel that is necessary for hospitalization and has prevented the departure of thousands of wounded people. And patients who were waiting to travel stuff up among them is a 2 year old lumber of the holy. She and her cousins, sustained injuries and is rarely s troy. Last month. They would post a schedule to get treatment approach. And the last line today, my name was that the buddha and i should travel to get my lex treated. They hunt. Im supposed to have an operation because the boat requesting a shot today. I couldnt travel on sob because i didnt leave today. Off the 7 months, so for the path for more than 1500000 palestinians remains on such and as does this apply to human and to are in a, into a district with warnings. They could be fed the depleted 8 Groups Holding for israel to de escalate now and say there was no plan be for the people in rough or target kept as in oh, just a rough rough i had a story. I was, ill speak to our other correspondence, honeywell, who does joining us from dayton ben assets and central garza so honey, there have been recent air strikes on the gaza strip. Tell us what youre learning. Yes very well, lets start with just stating that the right now with the courtyard of the a lot of the hospital thats in there. About a 100 vicinity is getting crowded as slowly as more people are pouring into defense from the area of the vast majority of people are coming in from roof has to be mainly the eastern part on the central part of robust city. The were forced to evacuate as leave this way to drop the right now, not only the leaves within the text message and the phone calls that were made sharply ordering them, but also the intensity of the bombing and the eastern part in the central parts of the city people are fleeing and we could see it quite clearly. Right now the city is going to be overcrowded and running out of space right now in terms of ears twice there over night. The talk to near the hours of this morning is that the time of preparing this report, these really military continued to pound across. The may major part of the eastern part of run by city, including majority of Residential Homes, have been cleared, as well as the eastern part of old farm land, as well as defend for part of robust city, including the vicinity of and the jar, hospitalized. The only large Health Facility and rough city that has been ordered to evacuate within the past 24 hours. And, and right now is in a Health Facility that is not operational at all. Putting more pressure on remaining Health Facilities across the city. The reports of more people being killed, more casualties, reported to the field hospital, the western part of the city, including a law off evacuations on, as well as the way the hospital molds, Health Facility, largely unprepared or not equipped to receive this large number of casualty. Just putting more pressure on the medical stock. Meanwhile, thats really military is to continue to pound the front defense of areas of early hours this morning. So loud explosions that clearly be further from anywhere in the central area. But they were mainly concentrated the drivers. Would you comp and just to remind our viewers . Well, sir, if you count has been repeatedly targeted and within the past few weeks, is really military is on the northern part of this particular rep digit comp, in the, in the central area destroying the vast majority of its Residential Homes and public facility events leaving a true devastation to all social services, facilities, and building forces people into more internal displacement and tiny. A we know that the is really these have prevented the entry of a truck, so im better off of Border Crossing because theyve taken control of that Border Crossing. But at the same time theyre claiming that theyve reopen to cut them a boost of them crossing. What can you tell us about this . Yes, were right out. We can safely down the line. The crossings have been blocked by this really military. The only thing that happened on is just the response to American Administration and joe biden. The pressure on is really Prime Minister benjamin nathan. The out term of the spelling was reopened. But right now, as we were here, news coming in from these really sites. But what were seeing on the ground, the number or the amount of weight is only a trickle of what in response to the challenge. The for you to the this, the new car news. And in a roughly in the eastern part of robust city. This particular crossing is right now on the full control of those really military and additions. We have real fact rocking that has completely close what that does. In fact, it just increases the difficulty of getting get into the golf trip because the trucks are, they jumped inside a roof. I probably will have to make this journey all the way to kind of a sounding for security clearance. And then there would be allowed into it, the guys are free, but right now were only seeing more time is wasted and only the small number of the trucks and just little amount of it is being allowed in there. Also list of, of many will be a much nothing certainly needed aid right now, including medical supplies, particularly were talking about medical cures and other important stuff and 4, possibly the r v. Any preventative from entering at a loss evacuation is done as of right now. Running out of space there, 400000 more people are born into it. Just making the whole situation much difficult with only one crossing right now. Partially often, and its regular amount of it. There is a human, a jury on a crisis. That is the basic describe above the version speech capacity right now. Okay, thank you, honey. I would thank you for that report from dated by the hand central guys all as well. The events and draft saw her unfolding a ceasefire. Negotiations brokered by cats are an egypt are being held in cairo. Israels Prime Minister says the proposal from us has agreed to follow sorts of israels demands. Its an elantra. Israel will not allow from us to return to rule in gaza. We will not allow them to rebuild their military capabilities and continue their project of destroying us. Israel will not approve any proposal that constitutes a threat to israel, security and future. For that reason, i have ordered our delegation that went to cairo to continue to insist on our demands to guarantee our security in parallel. We will continue our war against em. Us. Our entry into rafa is a very important step. Our army is on its way to destroy the remainder of their capabilities. Ha says that if israels military aggression continues and vesa, there will be no cease fire deal the seniors spokesperson for from us. So im, im done says its now up to israel. Whether or not a deal goes through. No, i do not thought that i would then we would like to stress the fact that the boys know isnt netanyahus quote. And the behavior and attitude after we announced to agreement, reflect determination by this criminal to foil all attempts of mediation, including those of the United States and expresses his carelessness for the lives of the captives was threatened every day to the bombardments of the is really military will bring in our correspond them. How about junction was joining us are from the georgia and capital on mine. And how much let me 1st ask you about reporting. That seems to suggest that the us has pause a weapons shipment to israel. What more can you tell us about this and the details of it . And so theyre in, we havent gotten any official response from the Israeli Government to these reports. We are seeing our statements by some officials, anonymously source. The officials in is really media. And the suggestions are that folks in israel are concerned, members of the security establish especially that um the halting of this weapon shipment is a tactic by the us to increase pressure on the Us Government to stop a, an all out invasion of golf and also to try to move these really government into accepting the terms of a cease fire. Now there are a lot of details being reported about what was in that weapon shipment. We are seeing numbers like perhaps around 1802000 pound bombs. And around 170500 pound bombs. Those would have been included. Were told in that shipment that was halted at least the reports are suggesting that. Now of course, we should stress that this is a very small amount of weapons compared to the number of weapons that the u. S. Provides to israel. This is really just a drop in the ocean. When you look at the type of weaponry that the u. S. Continues to provide to israel, but it does seem, even though Nothing Official from top is really officials. It does seem that there is concern among the security and military establishment based on some of the quotes were seeing in is really media reports that this perhaps is a harbinger of things to come. Meaning that if is real, doesnt start at hearing more to what the us once perhaps the us will fault, further shipments of weapons Going Forward. And okay, how much when it comes to whats happening right now, and we know that the seas far negotiations are still taking place in cairo. How much pressure is there internally on . Nothing. Yahoo, because weve seen the demonstrations in tel aviv not only take place, but they seem to be growing as well. So yeah, thats right. And, and you know, the last 2 days there had been demonstrations in various cities in israel, mostly held by relatives of these rarely captive, still being held in gaza when it was announced that how much was accepting the ceasefire proposal that had been presented to them. You had, were told hundreds of demonstrators go out on the streets in tel aviv that evening and they were saying that they were going to stay out all night. They were going to continue to come out to put pressure on the government to enter into a ceasefire. Agreement so that they could get their loved ones back yesterday. There were reports that there were demo is also in tel aviv this morning. Even there are reports and their video is popping up online or social Media Channels showing a smaller group. Perhaps dozens of relatives of captives being held in gaza. But out there blocking uh, one of the main streets i along street in northern tell a v trying to send a message to the government that they are going to continue to mobilize. Now theyre in, we are now reporting out of im not jordan because were no longer allowed to report in israel. Our office space was shut down, but i can tell you i wasnt tell a v of this past saturday at one of the weekly demo. Is it happens uh into on saturday and telling me there was thousands of Anti Government demonstrators, relatives of captives. They were saying the time is now for israel to go ahead and enter into a deal they were chanting. There is a document in front of you sign on the dotted line. They want to see this come to an end. They say there is no more paramount importance as far as any issue in israel right now as far as getting back those captives. So there is mounting pressure on thats in the yahoo. He is not seated to any of that pressure as of yet, but its going to be interesting to see its such a crucial hours. Its a critical time when negotiations are ongoing. If more people will be going out into the streets and mobilizing and how much more pressure political pressure that will put on the Prime Minister. Okay, and mohammad, thank you so much for that reporting from my mind. And once again, just to remind our viewers of how much im doing is reporting for us from my mind, because benjamin netanyahu, his cabinet, has bound alpha 0. So thats why were having to report from outside of israel, and that is a live shots from gaza. Right now this morning, lets continue the conversation about the weapons shipment. The pause i should say in a shipment of weapons to israel by the u. S. And speak to him, youre oran, whos a military and governments commentator with her. Its newspaper. Joining us from tel aviv mr or and thanks for your time. So how is this being viewed, israel as well, its viewed as a very significant move. And um, uh, in order to understand the background, its both legal and political. Later today may a secretary of state lincoln and 2nd of defense, austin must certify that all on shipments to israel as well as to other countries are given or sold. When these countries uphold the International Law and do not bottom look the human rights and do not impede humanitarian aid. Now, um, as the time for this document to be signed, whats getting close . Nathaniel tech, talking about the rock alteration in direct opposition to president by then. So after all the public statements and the phone calls between by them and let them know the knockout, the administration took a 2 step move. First of all, it secretly called the pause this particular shipment because it was the next in line, and they didnt have any particular significance per se, but the treatment was next in line. And this was the signal intended only for these really covering that long distance. Right. Thats the big no. Tell. Yeah. Okay. So when it comes to the signal, what is the us signaling to israel . Our is the us trying to pressure them not to continue with the sort of offensive or is the us trying to pressure israel into the ceasefire negotiations and eventually zeal. Whats going on here in a general sense and its very ironic because usually when we speak about the terrans, we speak about the political will of governments to execute what they say to make good them their threats. And here thats right, was not that goes to an adversary both against pop, theyre all rely and uh, when the new government, besides going to challenge the by didnt administration. And the, you know, or its warnings done by didnt, has shown it on the out. The t serious . No. Oh yes it does. To do weve, weve director operations because of, by the, uh, the men big theyre clicked on, you know, not take on to take any Major Military operation. That is a ground maneuver, of course, subject to raise rates in order to release the hostages, or perhaps even to kill or capture how much leadership are fine as far as washington is concerned, but nothing Massive Movement from the ground, but also we support which will drive the 1400000. 00 civilian. So anywhere all the, and i mean besides this being a symbolic move as many are describing it. What difference does it actually makes to israel practically on the grounds . Because even us officials are saying that the is really military has enough weapons supplied by the us and other partners to conduct the ref operation. If it chooses not to listen to the us as objections. You know, no battle sees the very last one and no war can and without the government and really 3 being prepared for the next one. And even though one particular action can be executed, we just looked at right. You are having stop. You must replenish your stocks. In order to prepare for 11 am, for instance, or for another, youre writing your contingency. So he doesnt have um now to do all the wheels. What is happening tomorrow . You must think about next week and next year. Okay, thank you so much for speaking to us from a television here or and thank you. Well, its really police a, mobilize the large number of officers to enforce the demolition of about 50 homes in the negative region that has lots of protests in the local better when Community Police prevented a palestinian is really connect that member from approaching the sites. Palestinian is really a piece of criticize the governments move, calling for a solution acceptable to all parties. Israels far right National Security minister, its a marker and give years as the demolition is an important step towards restoring. Governance. Bernard smith is running is not from but im a law and the occupied west bank. Youre keeping an eye out on the situation in the negative bernard and this demolition of homes, this large demolition of problems. What can you tell us about whats happening at the site right now . So the needs of the homes of one family, the family. And there are about 400 family members who will now have no way to live tonight because the home is about 47 to 50 of them had been destroyed by contractors while more than 400 police. Ive kept people back to allow this demolition to go ahead. Remember, these are palestinian and these rileys, they hold is rarely citizenship that back to in that perhaps some of the most discriminated people in israel because of the status and who they are and where they live. And theyve got no rights really many of them actually serve and hes really in israel is ami, but as a forwarded them little protection over the years they are still discriminated against. And this is part of a, perhaps a, a great to plan, to clear parts of the, of the, of the negative for expansion of, of sacraments by and give it at my bank of a. He said that theres been a considerable increase in demolitions of illegal houses in the negative, and i am proud to lead this policy where you are birds in the occupied westbank. There have been more raids overnight. Whats been the aftermath of those . So uh the uh the, with the raise in till around the been constant raids throughout the westbank since october the 7th. Theyve been increased in intensity since october the 7th. And because they see a crack down on palestinians in the occupied westbank compared to a while. So attention is on gaza. Those rates continuing, although the overall number of them has been diminished somewhat, but that one and telecom the another, a repetition, a repeat of what was going on in the last few days. Okay, thank you so much. Bernard smith reporting from the as in the last as also is there a special reports inside me in mar, tony chang, looks at the Peoples Defense force. These are the fighters whove taken on the brunt of the fighting around the strategic border autonomy, a warranty. How did a peaceful, urban protest movement transformed into an effective fighting force . Fight is from the Peoples Defense pulse speed along the roads of canyon state. Aside from the threats in the yeah, they have the countryside locked down. A will organize discipline melisha bone of a peaceful disobedience movement. And the often most of the military coup, peaceful protest is took to the streets of old man, most major cities via but use 10 z. Im willing to give up the freedoms of democracy. The ministry cracked down, the followed was hundreds. Come down in the streets, 1000 small, hold a way to detention the protest is were left with a stop choice. Submit. Move to the boat. Is points for tomorrow so that i a rock in this area around august 2021. I was in a k m l, a force in the lake, a count area my a y d. I decided to take up arms and flights back and usually off of the training i decided werent as medic are trained by us. Nick korean rebels whos been fighting for autonomy for decades. They lent you skills, but a shortage of weapons and ammunition. Thats the only one rifle for every 2 fighters. Now, all of that has changed. One of the things has made a huge difference in the last 6 months is weapons, the pro Democracy Forces have seized from military bases theyve over run. These are just some of the rifles theyve taken from bases. And the last couple of weeks set the me of them a knuckle, not just dont that the young open places are using the social media skills to for the 2 g was of the same as hip hop artist. Now he tools rebel bases raising neuro nearby and funds, say about trying to, you know, we would have done this kind of fund raising many times before. The enemy uses all the power and resources to attack, cuz so we have to raise funds by any means such as collecting donations from people online. But they worked with the song hes singing originally performed by zeta tall politician and rapid executed by the electric generator. In 2022 is the sunsets fight to slip out of cover to wash in the river. Educated and professionals turned into jungle guerrillas. But despite all the obstacles to find they could well when tony chang out to 0, tie in states, eastern me m o. Last week and Justin Chambers is a post Doctoral Research or with the Danish Institute for international studies. Shes also a specialist on all 40 and s no National Conflict in me tomorrow. Joining us from stock home, welcome to alta 0. We appreciate your time. How big a thread do you think the Peoples Defense forces actually pose to the gentile . Because when they were 1st to emerge in 2021, they were kind of dismissed as perhaps a group of young vigilantes. But they seem to have grown in size having thank to yeah, i think that you can think of the Peoples Defense both is on their own. They are trained and theyre based often and coordinating with estimate resistance organizations who have decades of experience fighting them on military. And i think if we look at where the resistance has come in the last 3 years, they have gained on president the territory. They gain control of ki bases, the military used to hold for decades, including bases on board like key strategic rates on the border. Right. And how do you explain that growth and their ability to claim lands and hold onto it . I think in these conflicts, we can really see how little support the resistance theyve been as had from the international can be community compared to say, ukraine, really, the strength of this Movement Comes from the people themselves. It comes from the support of civilians who are necessarily even on to come back. It comes from, you know, the generations. They the passion and i guess result. They have the defeating the military. It comes from the people who live overseas and who are funding the Resistance Movement is really a tables lead management. And i think thats really work, thats the case that the strength is making is. And one of the significant hurdles for the agenda and the fact that weve been reporting on this over the past a few days. And these special reports out of me and more is that many people in me and more dont want to fight with. And for the gentle, despite the conscription orders that are being put in place, how do you think thats affecting the military . So yeah, thats correct. So the military introduced a new conscription, recruitment out more in february. And theres been a lot of fee, a lots of young people whove been playing the cities um, theyre playing to thailand to other neighboring countries. And you know, a lot of the resistance groups actually seeing a huge influx of young people who arent really playing these conscription drive. Were also seeing reports of 1st conscription of range of people in, in the crime state, you know, a community thats been abused for decades by the notary leading up to the genocide in 2017. So, you know, ive seen that actually the construction drive is a shot, a sign of weakness, and it really just shows how desperate the military is, say, a completely demoralized. They losing troops all the time, body to casualties on the grounds, but also in terms of defections and huge numbers have surrendered as well in k territories. And whats uh, whats next for the armed resistance. How do you see it playing out for the groups on the ground, particularly without the International Assistance and weapons shipments. For example, that the, that the just, i guess a yeah. Look, i think its, it will be interesting. So you come to the next few months, weve seen 2 huge guys, particularly in the last 6 months since operation 1027. 00 in october of last year. But the monitoring season is coming. We know that conflicts flows down during this period just because of logistical issues. But i think at the end of the day, the military is losing ground. It, as i said, its completely demoralized as a force and what i think the resistance is, and you know, at a time in history its, its scanning control over the military and in ways that we have not seen ever, ever before. And i think to, to look at, you know, just, i guess the previous strength of the military in previous decades is, is ignoring actually whats happening on the ground. And, and these cases that have gains made by the Resistance Movement in different parts of the country. Okay. Thank you. Just chambers. Thank you for speaking to us from stop. Com. Still ahead on the houses, there is our workers scramble to rescue certain fibers at the scene of a 5 Story Building collapse in south africa. The the so theres no influx of pretty code that come into your property. Youre going to affect the Baltic States and you start colder out there where its cold enough for, for example, moscow to have it the 2nd day of snow in may, everywhere else when the sun comes out to attempt to recover. But theyll be about 10 degrees below what they were before this rain band, which is moving size came strip. That rate is going to concentrate in central europe. Now, suppose died died here even over the high points of the outs, probably as time on the action. Probably takes place near the central med plan, but for example, in sicily, see about 18 degrees, but a couple of days of rain or even sundry right. So lets fix on that. Then for thursday, as it moves larry south is going to affect to nivia, catch our gerrys quarter when the picture that spreads through greece interested in turkey. Um probably hits rest increased as well, but the same time is getting warm and not in spite and total is up to about 29. 00 degrees. Even hotter and strong. So how and this the hell were up to 46000. 00 jemina and the 2nd the low to middle voltage as far west as the going to be of theres more likely to be sent to go. But the helpful shower seasonal shows that you see for the south and see earlier. And for example, the ivory coast and nigeria are becoming more frequent and making it further in life. The despite has excited form or catalog lead or carlos, whose demo is set to run for president. When the spanish region holds early elections. Could his political return reignite the separatists bid for independence . And how would it impact spains Political Landscape . The catalonia elections on a jersey to the amazon home, to indigenous people, and diverse ecosystems is being destroyed by relentless drilling for oil. Theyre living in direct contact with petroleum through fear, border. And so in ecuador, amenities of fighting the corporate joints in a battle for survival and to save the lung. So whats the word . How does he was view seems doing the fine graph. There are some of the media stories, a critical look at the global news media, on how to 0 government shut off access to social media. The, [000 00 00;00] the kind of again, the top stories on the al jazeera news, our is row has continued to bombed alpha and the rest of gaza. Palestinians remain tracks in the strip to cut them or boost atom crossing has now been reopened for humanitarian aid. But is really forces are in control of the palestinian sides of the Border Crossing with egypt. The u. S. Has paused a shipment of farms to israel, saying it has not address washingtons concerns about a major grounds operation in dropbox, of israels, the task onto the thought has triggered protests around the world. Terrorism brings us this report from new york where at least 7 people were detained. Im here in union square and new york says the people have gathered to demand an end to the wrong guys that are chanting also, hands on the turns, and that is all knowing in Southern Guns Service People are not students. Theres several organizations that have gotten together to demand that the United States financing riley military funding base route military landfill. A hand is one of the organizers of this demonstration. We are outraged at the invasion of refresh has begun and we are here. We call them emergency rally because the will of United States people is actually to end the genocide to end the occupation. And it seems that the white house cannot hear this and is not putting the appropriate amount of pressure and taking action to the square and started to sweep in the middle of the city. Theres lots of preston, officer police. At least 4 people were arrested. They had been warning the protesters that they kind of broke, the rules are marching through this area. These people are also saying that they stand with the student protestors that have taken University Campuses across the country. Students are very courageous and they are very brief. And our message here actually is that the students were right, they were protesting to stop the invasion of rosa. And its continuing now. Protestors march going around new york city. They made all the way here to the New York Public Library where they continued to demand. And after the war, students in the United States had been suspended, expelled the many have been arrested here in new york city. They had been evicted from their campuses, but they havent taken the process to the street. And thats where they say they, when we manage the, your senior United Nations, fingers are warning that water production is about to be shut down in northern garza because of a lack of fuel. The un secretary general says there needs to be a massive surge in humanitarian aid. Krista salumi reports. It was the 3rd time in less than 24 hours that the United Nations secretary general called for a cease fire in gaza. But this time, it wasnt just the leaders of israel and mosse. He appealed to, i appeal to those we need for. So what is available to do everything you the board . Well preferred, even more pressure. Its Natural Community as a share, the responsibility to promote your manufacturing ceasefire, the unconditional release of your almost seduce, and the message such a live saving 8 in the Security Council chamber behind him. Members gathered later to discuss the situation in a close meeting. While you and humanitarians warns they are about to run out of fuel, which is essential to make and deliver food and more without fuel tomorrow to mean water production will be shut down in the note. On the private ending type of pollution of access into a wall of Drinking Water in the same will be in another day for the entire south operation. The south end to meet the batteries which would be impacting 1900000. 00 people. The Security Council discuss the situation behind closed doors, but took no action. The weather palestinians and rough us lee or stay put, the United Nation says israel has a responsibility to protect civilians and with 3 quarters of gaza under and evacuation order. They war and there is no play safe for them to go. Christian salumi al jazeera, the United Nations. Us okay, we have with us, ive done a lot of ya and hes running a sunset. Hes an associate professor of history. George i university right here in cats are welcome back to alta 0. So obviously a huge concern over the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the gaza strip after supplies run out because of the closer of the Border Crossing. At the same time, you have the cease fire talks went on in cairo. What do you see is the likely scenarios Going Forward . Well, i mean, it seems to me that, that there was an attempt to kind of sabotage those talks because, of course, after these release came forward and said that theyre not accepting how much is acceptance of those terms. But what we know, of course, from the very beginning, is that the mediators here, so were talking about egypt outside of the United States, have been reflecting these really demands throughout this, this process. And so there is nothing in the terms of this agreement that hasnt already been vetted at some stage within the is really cabinet. And so for that reason, i think it was kind of a bit of a shock for a lot of people to see that once to finally reach an agreement, that all of a sudden the entire talk skipped sabotaged it. Instead, were seeing the exact opposite, which is this massive incursion into alpha and the catastrophic consequences as a result. How likely is it, though . Im certainly going for that. Israel continues to sort of, if i can say snow the cease fire proposal thats, you know, us sponsor as well. But i mean, i think theres, theres been no real pressure. You know, weve talked a little bit earlier about the fact that, you know, there are these kind of small symbolic gestures about withholding certain weapons shipments and due to signaling kinds of pressure through words. But theres been absolutely no real accountability. And for that reason, israel has been unchecked from the very beginning. Theres been no real attempt from the United States government from the you, from any other partners to try and temper any of the, the kinds of for risk atrocities that are being committed. And so as a result, until theres anything kind of really substantial, i mean even a cease fire resolution that passed the un Security Council back in march as, as also now gone, completely ignored. And so i think for that reason, there really isnt anything to expect other than that. Israel is going to continue to fulfill what it sees as its goals here. We know that theres no military victory here, right . That this is not about a military victory. This is really what were seeing is the wholesale destruction of palestinian society. We obviously will have to wait and see what comes out of cairo. But if there was no agreement and no ceasefire proposal, we know that homicide, yes, were waiting for the is really response. Does this then risk regional escalation more so than ever before . Well, certainly were seeing new things happening. So for instance, the seizure of that off crossing i think, is a really Major Development because this is course is one that had been controlled by egypt just until the last 24 hours in which israel has now seized the last remaining opening into guys that, that of course it had controlled entry and exit of things and people and goods and, and so on. But now that it actually controls it directly, i think, is a certainly massive escalation. Its going to lead to far more disastrous humanitarian catastrophe in terms of the start of ation. Not having fuel, medical supplies, etc. At the same time that its also unleashing are really horrific side of the tax on the most densely populated, a part of gaza at this point, which is the south that all of these people who were promised, you know, safety going into the south are now be attacked directly and so in some ways i think this is, this is certainly threatening some kind of escalation, both within guys itself. And then of course, in the region, given the fact that all of these states now are having less of a direct role to play the egypt of thought or others as well. Okay, ive done the audio and thank you so much for your in house of the ukrainian president.
