This is very much tied to what Nick Robertson was saying there, john, about the inevitability of the ground of asian. Israel telling the United Nations essentially to evacuate at the gaza strip, the nose and part of the gaza strip. That you and says that accounts for about 1. 1 million palestinians. Thats about half of the entire population of the gaza strip this specific distances a around about ten kilometers south of the its not ten kilometers south north throughout, but that is what israel is saying. Do you and say its impossible to do so without, in its words, devastating humanitarian consequences. The response from israel to the u. N. , from israels envoy to the u. N. , is to say that response by the u. N. s itself shameful. But seeing what israel is trying to do is to get the civilian population of the gaza strip to basically make way for the israelis for this expected Ground Incursion to minimize civilian casualties. Of course, moving that many people is no easy task. At the same time, the Biden Administration has been talking about trying to get safe passage for the civilian population of gaza do the southern caressing into egypt.

Thats a death toll that is also expected to rise, john . Elie, thank you. And they got can in london, appreciate it, thank you. In all the conflict between israel and hamas over the years, there has been and is still one constant, civilians in gaza are owes on the losing end of israeli airstrikes, and what the death toll surging once again, aid groups are calling for greater efforts to spread the men, Women And Children In Gaza who are caught in the cross fire. Cnns not publisher has our report. A warning, herbert contains graphic content. [screaming] gripped by grief [screaming] a loss of unfathomable scale. Causes death toll at the number of civilians wounded is rising with each and every air strike. In the refugee camp, men dig with their bare hands, desperate to rescue let ones, eat the rubble of what once was their homes. [speaking in a nonenglish language] set bigots to list the names at the church and killed and a lettuce strike. Among them, his niece. She was just a few months old, now, she is one of more than 440 children Gazas Health Ministry says has been killed by israeli airstrikes so far. Israel says it is striking hostile gets, but authorities here say medical facilities, schools and residential areas have been impacted. Our neighbor says that the israelis called and told them to evacuate the area around our home, so we came to stay with relatives here in the shelter, no bill says. But the next morning, will wake up to pray at dawn, the air strike happened. There was no warning. The densely populated gaza strip, which has green under and as clearly land, sea and air blockade since 2007 its home to more than 2 Million People. Around 47 of them are children. So far, at least 340,000 people have been displaced within gaza. Many are now forced to take shelter and u. N. Around schools like this one. But civilians here are also now facing with the Israeli Government as described as a complete siege of gaza. There is no water for us to drink, no water for us to wash ourselves with so that we can pray, this child says. They bumped our schools, many people have been killed, its not fair for children like us. Why is this happening to us . Life under a blockade is all that the children of gaza have ever known. For some, like 13 year old 19, it is hard to imagine a future beyond this relentless conflict. Last couple of nights have been the worst couple of nights that i have ever lived in my life. This is not living, this is existing. We are not planning our futures anymore. Were just trying to survive. But survival in gaza is becoming more and more difficult by the day. The humanitarian situation is rapidly deteriorating, and while the u. N. Has condemned it as described as israels a lawful blockade on gaza and the indiscriminate nature of israel s airstrikes, there is little hope of the bloodshed will end here. Not a beshear, cnn. Live now to raleigh in the west bank. The Director General of the palestinian red cross. Thank you for being with us, we appreciate your time. Thank you for having me. I want to talk about gaza here and the Health Minister to start off with. The hospitals and Health Care System in gaza has always been strained at The Best Of Times. What is the situation right now as they try to treat thousands of wounded and also being under fire at the same time . In the last few hours, there has been a development that has shocked everybody, our teams, the medical doctors, the paramedics, et cetera, and we are, to be honest, we are just buffered and trying to make sense of it. That is the order to evacuate more than 1 Million People into the southern gaza. We have hospitals. In those hospitals, there are people who are sick. And in intensive care, there are wounded, there are people with disabilities and i just dont know, how the israelis expect that this should be done when the roads, when the roads are all broken. I am telling you, i am starting with this, because this has been the recent development, and we are shocked, we dont know how to deal. We are appealing to the whole world to stop the madness. Youve been told historically by the United Nations, by israel, by the u. S. , so there are active discussions about how this could even be possible . We have been told that the u. N. Is evacuating, that the committee at the red cross is evacuating. When we asked then, how do you expect 1 Million People in this situation when gaza has been turned into rubble, every infrastructure, single infrastructure is destroyed. When we have hospitals which are full of sick people and want it and homeless. There is no answer. Just in terms of logistics here i think there is no answer because israel has made it important, and it ruled a silent. Looking at the humanitarian catastrophe that we dont hear the same voice coming. We just cannot deal with this. We are overwhelmed. I am on the floor from 1 00 this morning with our release, with our doctors, our paramedics. They just dont know what to do. Just in terms of logistics, does this mean that gaza is being cut in half. From there down to the south will essentially be declared safe for the population. Anything north will be declared a military zone, what have they told you . There is no safe zone in gaza. Gaza has no water, no food, no electricity. The roads are destroyed. All parts of gaza have been bombarded heavily. There is no safe zone. In terms of an evacuation order, what are they looking at here . What are they want them to go to . They want people to go south of gaza valley, this is half of gaza. Theyll have people who are 20 kilometers away. They have no means of transportation, as i said, there are injured people, there are children, there are six people. We have hospitals in this area that they are asking us to evacuate. How do we evacuate hospitals in the middle of this . And where to go, where to go . You know the area, this is an overpopulated, people are on top of each other, so where do they go . Tomato, obviously, this is an image sign that a possible Ground Incursion or some other Major Military offensive is on its way. If those people dont leave, then they are facing dangers as well. Well, i think thats why the world has to intervene. I plead that some sane voices, the world has to intervene and stop this madness. You cannot write the road that happened with a massacre of people with a genocide, you cannot do that. The world is leaving Palestinian People helpless, under fire, being killed, children and women. Half of those killed are women and children. The world asked to intervene, and they have to intervene now before the situation really gets worse. I have pleaded to the world, please, please intervene, stop the madness. Have you been told what will happen if the evacuations did not take place . We have not been told anything. We have not been told anything. They told the u. N. , the icrc. We are hearing secondhand information, and even those international organizations, they are leaving without they dont have any information. They themselves, they just received the order on the phone and are shocked. Just for context here, with this evacuation apply to gaza city, as well . Yes, yes, this is the catastrophe. 1 Million People with hospitals with elderly, with children, how the world is silent about this, it baffles me. I am just shocked, beyond shocked. We are not hearing anything. We hear people beating the drums of war. I think its enough. Its enough. We have already suffered. This is a matter of being open for negotiation, or is it just a done deal, this is what the israelis have set, and of story . Well, this is what the israelis have set, and i dont hear any voice, i dont hear Secretary Blinken say anything about this. He has been in israel just this a day. He must have been told about this. So is the ignited states giving the greenlight to this massacre, to this humanitarian catastrophe . Is at the west keeping quiet and giving clean right to israel to do that . This is the question, this is the question that you had to ask the western leaders, to the israeli officials. They just cannot do that. Just for our audience, explain to the viewer over here of gaza is basically built on, because in the north, which is gaza city, thats where the citys, and a lot of people, there are built up. To the south, there is not a lot of infrastructure, mostly rural agriculture, there is no where for people to go. The whole of gazas urban, over populated, many Refugee Camps, with the most densely Populated Areas in the world. In between, there are certain, especially to the north, farming areas, which have been destroyed and the pass and in previous wars. The whole of gaza is like a big city, one small city overpopulated. So the south is the same. You have Refugee Camps, a number of Refugee Camps in the south. The area itself is already with the whole gaza strip is the most densely populated area in the world. So to move 1 Million People in half of this area is going to be catastrophic. There are going to be massacres. The utterly is going to be left behind. Children will be lost. The sick will be left behind, because we have no means to transport them, and gaza has been turned as i was told by my colleagues, like a chessboard, and they were moving from one square to another, bobbing, flooding, the whole thing, the next square to the next square. Sir, please, there are no safe areas, there are no rural areas, there are no open areas in gaza. Its more densely populated, and people are going to be on top of each other even more so, and its just impossible. It is a humanitarian catastrophe. Director general of the palestinian red cross there in thank you for your time. Thank you for your contacts for our audience and bringing this up to perspective from your point of view, as well. Yeah, this is an incredible undertaking, which seems to be impossible at this point. Thank you for being with us, sir. Appreciate time. Still to come here, hiding in plain sight. It seems the hamas jihadi sub trained for years, leaving little effort to hide, raising more questions about how Israeli Intelligence never saw hamas attacks coming in the first place. Those details next in a moment. More on the lives lost and the surprise hamas attacks, including the 27 u. S. Citizens now being declared dead. Less than a week after hamas militants carried out a well planned, well coordinated attack, did that this ever on israeli civilians and one day, and one simple but painful question keeps growing louder, how could Israeli Intelligence have missed it . Cnns chief International Correspondent Clarissa Ward and her team located six Training Camps in gaza, and now the Israeli Military is taking a closer look. According to our reporting, all of the sites are within two kilometers of the most heavily patrolled section of the border with israel. Here is clarissas report. Propaganda videos put up by hamas revealed chilling details about the ears a preparations that w
