In gaza have started vaccinating some babies against polio, a day before a mass immunisation programme is due to begin. Palestinian health workers carried out the vaccinations in nasser hospital in khan younis. Unicef says the vaccinations will take place for six and a half hours every day until wednesday. Israel and hamas have agreed to three localised pauses in fighting to enable the vaccination of more than 600,000 palestinian children. Our middle east correspondent yolande knell sent this new report from jerusalem. Just two drops as the un begins vaccinating against polio in gaza. A dose is easy to give, but carrying out a mass immunisation campaign in a combat zone is a huge challenge. Parents of the first vaccinated children are relieved. Translation: i was worried and afraid because this is scary. The polio disease. This disease makes the children unable to move. Baby abdulrahman was crawling early, but now his mum worries he ll never be able to walk. He was the first child foun
Military families in america. Should we be shocked? yes, political boomerang. Why republicans should do research before going ahead with their attack on kamala harris. And katie harris said the zoo has come to town. It turns out the real circus just showed up on trump s transition team. I am ayman mohyeldin. Let s do it. Five time draft dodger donald trump loves to paint himself as a champion for veterans. Nobody has ever defended the veterans like i have defended the veterans. I took good care of our vets. We will take care of our veterans better than anybody. Trump s performative support for the military hit a new low this week when he went arlington national cemetery 213 fallen soldiers who died during the 2021 afghanistan withdrawal. As we now know, trump used his visit to get political, filming an ad in which he jabbed president biden with the headstones of fallen troops in the backdrop. We can never assume why trump does what he does, but we do know that it leads to disgraceful m
In the west make the idf sending in hundreds of soldiers with armored vehicles and bulldozers israel says it has killed 20 terrorists and gun battles and airstrikes including a senior hamas commander welcomed a brandnew hour of fox news live i am bryan llenas. Anita: i am anita vogel. West bank operation is considered one of the biggest and deadliest since the war began between israel and hamas. The fighting growing more intense today with reports that at least one idf soldier was killed several others wounded. Many in the international community are calling for a halt in the fighting. A jeff a paul is life in tel aviv with the latest on the ground. Brian a fourth day of her raids by israeli forces got under way a little earlier today in the west bank. And really, when you look at this operation it is one of the most significant and biggest bit operations that is really forces have conducted in that area in quite some time. Most recently they are focused in and around the west bank c c
They have got a lot of young children to vaccinate. 6a0,000. And with the polio vaccination it comes in two rounds, so more thani million it comes in two rounds, so more than 1 million vaccinations are already in gaza, the first round of vaccinations will start tomorrow as part of this campaign, and then in three weeks those children will have to have another vaccination. So, a lot of the logistics around this have actually been about keeping the vaccination is cool because obviously it is very hot in gaza at the moment and they have got to be refrigerated, and for the most part it is local doctors who would be administering it, but with so many people to be vaccinated it is obviously going to be challenging. Let s turn our attention to israel s military operation in the west bank, what is the latest on that? well, this intensified israeli military operation has now been going on for several days, and it has continued today, as you say specifically in jenin. My today, as you say speci
To be vaccinated. And i have every hope that it will be a success. With the pauses in the fighting that have been agreed. Do they go? will they be going on for as long as is necessary for this to be implemented, or are the aid workers out there under a time pressure to roll out the vaccinations? my understanding is that these are daytime pauses for three days with an option for a fourth day. But again, i sincerely hope that if the work isn t completed, there will be more opportunities to get every child vaccinated, because that s what will be needed. With the vaccination programme. As it stands then, with the caveats and limitations, how likely do you think it is to tackle this resurgence in polio in the area? i m sure it will be difficult for the logistic reasons that are pretty obvious. But again, if a success is achieved and a second round will be needed in september, then hopefully this transmission of polio virus will be stopped and it s really important that it is stopped. How cr
