These suffering and tragedy stories are in every corner, every person you are meeting, whether it he is a doctor struggling to find a couple of hours to sleep, whether he is a businessman who has left big business behind in gaza city and has to live with his family, has to live in a shelter or school. You go there and you find a queue of people just waiting for hours to get five pieces of bread. There is not enough for the 50 people and the family they are evacuating with. You go there and you find someone is begging to buy water, but water is not available. Israel resumed bombing the water area today. There is no electricity to run and stop pumping the electricity to the houses. 90 of the houses in the south of gaza which is accommodating now over two thirds of the gaza strip overall population, they dont have water. They have to buy water. Un, you know, big tankers, they transferred the water from other parts of the city, the most Populated Areas here in the centre and people queue to fill the water. I was told from that doctor in the hospital earlier that they give every patient 300ml of water every day because they dont know for how long they can, israel will keep the Border Crossing shut. Yesterday there was some hope, people were a bit optimistic when they heard egypt would reopen Rafah Crossing and allow humanitarian aid to gaza but very quickly they were back to believing this will not happen easy. And they have to find a way to manage the very little resources of water and some fuel left. The hospital here said they are going to run out of fuel tonight at midnight and all the operations, this is the second biggest city, the second biggest hospital, and the hospital which is supposed to be servicing two thirds of the population will be shut down by midnight. International law has been mentioned many times in recent days linked to what were seeing in this war. So with more on this lets go to one of the founding prosecutors for the International Criminal court, luis moreno ocampo, whojoins me from sao paulo. Thank you so much for your time. How concerned have you been by what you have seen in the last ten days . It is highly frustrating, because hamas committed a genocide against the israeli people, but now israel ask answering violence with more violence. They are creating conditions for palestinians in gaza like this is a genocide as well. You cannot go from genocide to genocide and war should bejustice. There cannot go from genocide to genocide and war should be justice. And war should be ustice. There is honestl a and war should be ustice. There is honestly a very and war should be justice. There is honestly a very particular honestly a very particular definition for genocide and i dont want to get into that here, but israel said it had the right to protect itself, self defence under international law, that is what they say they are doing here. Yes. International law, that is what they say they are doing here. Yes, israel is riaht say they are doing here. Yes, israel is right and say they are doing here. Yes, israel is right and they say they are doing here. Yes, israel is right and they have say they are doing here. Yes, israel is right and they have the say they are doing here. Yes, israel is right and they have the right say they are doing here. Yes, israel is right and they have the right to l is right and they have the right to defend itself and attack hamas, but they have no right to starve civilians and displaced people. Its not right to display civilians, that is the problem and for hamas it is a problem, because they are shielding behind the population, but israel cannot destroy the shield of the civilian population. figs cannot destroy the shield of the civilian population. Cannot destroy the shield of the civilian population. As well as self defence, under civilian population. As well as self defence, under the civilian population. As well as self defence, under the principle civilian population. As well as self defence, under the principle of i defence, under the principle of proportionality, the country has the right to end an attack but also critically to remove the threat, and when you talk to israeli officials, the last phrase i used, removing the threat and that is what they say they are doing here with hamas. fine they are doing here with hamas. One thin the they are doing here with hamas. Ole thing the hamas they are doing here with hamas. me thing the hamas combatants they are doing here with hamas. Ij thing the hamas combatants have the palestinians living there but those billions are not hamas. They cannot be attacked and they are displaced now, that is a crime. And starving them could be a genocide, that is them could be a genocide, that is the problem. Israel has the right to defend but in accordance with the law. Displacing civilians and killing civilians and starving the population is illegal. So the method is the problem. Ifully population is illegal. So the method is the problem. I fully respect israels right to protect itself and we should stop hamas. We should put them injail, but killing civilians is not the answer. Them in jail, but killing civilians is not the answer. Them in jail, but killing civilians is not the answer. Apologies, the line is occasionally is not the answer. Apologies, the line is occasionally breaking is not the answer. Apologies, the line is occasionally breaking up, i line is occasionally breaking up, they say for example that theyve told people to leave certain areas for their own protection and safety as opposed to clearing an area. There is that as an israeli argument, and israel is not a member of the icc, so in terms of where this goes, how much of a problem is that . , , this goes, how much of a problem is that . A, , a, that . Two things. First they are tra ed that . Two things. First they are trapped in that . Two things. First they are trapped in gaza that . Two things.

Second question, the Palestinian Authority were fighting for ii question, the Palestinian Authority were fighting for 11 years and became a state party after the un recognised a Palestinian State and the judge confirmed recognised a Palestinian State and thejudge confirmed in recognised a Palestinian State and the judge confirmed in 2021 that guysin the judge confirmed in 2021 that Guys Injerusalem and the one area are part of palestine, and although crimes committed in that like hamas, committed in gaza or ramallah are crimes and the prosecutors could investigate crimes. Crimes and the prosecutors could investigate crimes. Sorry that the line is slightly investigate crimes. Sorry that the line is slightly giving investigate crimes. Sorry that the line is slightly giving out investigate crimes. Sorry that the line is slightly giving out on investigate crimes. Sorry that the line is slightly giving out on you, | line is slightly giving out on you, but thanks for those reflections as we continue to address so many different strands of this crisis. Thanks so much forjoining us on bbc news. Lets turn back to the various diplomatic efforts going on to contain this war. Turkey says a peace summit is planned in egypt. While King Abdullah ofjordan is in berlin, where hes had talks with chancellor 0laf scholz. Hes said that as long as efforts to find a long term political solution fail, the cycle of violence will continue. That is one leg of the diplomacy and we have also looked at that other critical leg and we will see so much of it tomorrow, the visit byjoe biden to tel aviv and the wider region. What is the latest you are hearing about the crucial trip from the president . It about the crucial trip from the president . About the crucial trip from the president . ,. ,. ,. , president .

It will be a short one and he will visit tel aviv president . It will be a short one and he will visit tel aviv and president . It will be a short one | and he will visit tel aviv and then for a few hours he will then go to meet with arab leaders there. The goals of it were laid out clearly by the Secretary Of State, that he would show solidarity and commitment to israeli security. The strongest message of us support so far which has been extraordinarily strong already and he is going there to reinforce the message of avoiding escalation and that is largely a message to iran and the armed groups not to get involved in the fight and that has been backed up by a lot of us Military Hardware in the region in a deterrent pose, and he also asking the israelis, what is the strategy and aim of the operation because the americans strongly support the idea that hamas should be given a punishing and forceful blow that it cannot look as if it wins the conflict and they are behind the israelis on that but they have an eye on the day after and if it is as punishing for Palestinian Civilians as it has been, and even more so that they are afraid that arab states will not be able to work with israel and it will be difficult to come up with a solution to the conditions that were behind the attack, so those are the kinds of things that President Biden will talk about and they will emphasise the humanitarian situation, especially after mr blink and did a tour of arab countries and they told him that was their chief concern. Briefly we had the announcement that 200 or so us personnel are being put on heightened alert and we know about the Aircraft Carriers in the region.

We will take a short break, but when i come back i will be talking to a charity that is there in israel that is retrieving those People Killed in the hamas attacks retrieving the bodies, so that interview coming up live next on bbc news.

We are hoping for progress soon and we see a lot of International Traffic in that direction and we are engaging in the present will be meeting present biden and their will be a meeting with the us Secretary Of State and the regional actors that we are engaging as the Palestinian Liberation Organisation and as the state of palestine government, we see efforts by egypt and jordan and his majesty will be meeting the prime minister, so there is a lot of movement in that direction but these diplomatic efforts should not have been needed in the first place.
