defence forces have not commented on these drugs but that they have taken control of a hamas stronghold in recent fighting. we have the latest from southern israel. hamas released video of their men fighting on the streets of gaza. they know they can't win a pitched battle, so they're using hit and run tactics. that will intensify as israel's tanks and troops move deeper into gaza city. after an israeli strike in khan younis, southern gaza, they were digging for survivors. the town is in the area israel has told palestinians to go to stay safe. but nowhere's safe. israel says this is self—defence. palestinians call it genocide. ahmed had 27 members of his family inside the house when it was hit. this is the bravery of the so—called israel. they show their might and power against civilians. babies inside, kids inside! and the elderly! it is the mighty vengeance promised by israel's prime minister when hamas attacked a month ago. in tel aviv, at the empty table set for the hostages in gaza, friends and families are mounting a 24—hour vigil. the national trauma israel suffered a month ago is not lessening. in fact, they're reassessing everything, notjust relations with the palestinians, but also with arab countries they thought they were getting closer to, and who are now condemning everything they're doing in gaza. and there's the issue of the safety ofjews in places around the world where the palestinians get a lot of support. so even though israel is more secure than a month ago — many more people are out and about — a real sense of threat, notjust from gaza, remains. israel insists that force, not negotiations, will bring the hostages back. shani louk�*s family hoped she was a hostage until she was confirmed dead a week ago. friends filled her family home with her portraits. she was at the music festival that was attacked. we got this horrible video that was shown all over. a friend of ours sent it to us and he said, "i recognise shani. "this is shani on the pick—up truck." this is where she was face down? yes, she was in a weird position, looks unconscious, blood on the head and the pick—up was driving inside the gaza strip and people were shouting and celebrating and spitting on her, and it was terrible, and we were just in shock. do you think israel's doing the right thing now? i don't know what in the end will be, because there are really many innocent civilians also there in gaza and they shouldn't suffer, but there needs to be something radical with the terrorists to be done, because if not, we will be back in this in the next few years. they will get the weapons again and they will train again. israel's pounding of gaza has not stopped. neither has its rage diminished. jeremy bowen, bbc news, in southern israel. three quarters of people from gaza have now moved south after being warned by the israeli military to leave homes in the north. we have been following some of the civilians who have left everything behind. gaza's southern edge, a so—called safer area. not safe today, from the scores of bombs dropped every day. "there is someone alive in there," a man shouts. the air smells of smoke, of dust and blood. one rescuer carries a girl to the hospital. severely injured, she is separated from the hospital. outside, a woman is looking for her child. our neighbours house was bombed to my daughter was in it. even our house was destroyed. there is nothing left, says this woman. our cameraman showed her this video. rana identified her seven—year—old girl, bira. she was moved from this hospital. it is not equipped to treat her. hundreds of thousands fled the north after warnings from israel. many families walking for miles, crowding into the south. a school provides fragile shelter. just three litres of water for each person for all needs per day, the un says. israel denies there is a humanitarian crisis. it is hard enough to live here under the constant sound and threat of bombardment. sabrine is the new mother of a seven—day—old child. there has been no bread for her to eat for five days. she can't breast—feed her son. translation: i gave birth during the war, in circumstances only god knows about. what has this one—week—old child done to be starved of milk? how is he to be blamed for being born in this situation? he is falling sick because he isn't adequately fed. we do not even have water to drink and we sleep on the floor. there is no way out for most people in gaza. and there is nowhere left to run. yogita limaye, bbc news, jerusalem. meanwhile, the us secretary of has travelled from the middle east to japan for the summit of g7 foreign ministers. be called on the g7 to speak in a clear voice about the israel —— gaza war and his japanese counterpart says she wants a candid and deep discussion. earlier, i spoke to a visiting fellow at the japan institute of international affairs and i started by asking him about the calls for possible humanitarian pause. fist calls for possible humanitarian ause. �* , . ~' pause. at this date i think the united states _ pause. at this date i think the united states supports -
