Thoughts, which seems to sort of a Human Failing for all of us. How does this Technology Deal with that . Yeah. Well, personally i gotta tell you now even as a neurosurgeon myself, i learned so much about these braincomputer interfaces. I mean, were all learning, but one of the things to keep in mind is even after the devices implanted, it takes months to accomplish exactly what youre talking about. Aaron so he had an implanted than several months later when they i actually started to try and control things in his environment and during the time in between, its focusing on actually developing that concentration, understanding how to actually think about something, and have it result in an action. Its not how we are programmed to do things. We lift our hand, we do something right away here you just have to think about it and recognize that thats going to result in some sort of outcome. So its not immediate. Youre going to hear about these implants being put in but then it will be months before you hear about them actually doing something for the individual because they need to train over and over again for months all sanjay. Thank you so much. Got it. Thank you thanks for watching. The lead starts now and welcome to the lead. Im Kaitlan Collins in for jake tapper on this friday ahead this hour, were reporting that his first here on cnn as we are now hearing from multiple sources telling cnn about what could be a another spy balloon found off the coast of the United States. Plus star players taking the court, the nba is lebron james in College Basketballs stand out, Caitlin Clark, their chance to make history by doing what they do best the Sports Legend himself, bob costas well be here to talk about it. But first, leading this hour, a major announcement from President Biden today, who renewed his call for an immediate ceasefire between israel and hamas for at least six weeks in gaza. Their goal to get more hostages released from hamas and get more aid into gaza. The president said the us plans to airdrop that desperately needed food and supplies into the war ravaged area. Here he was at the white house, sitting next to the italian prime minister, just a few moments ago. Aid flowing to gaza is nowhere nearly enough. Now its nowhere nearly enough. Innocent lives are on the line and childrens lives around the line. And we wont stand by and let so we get more aid in. I wont standby. We wont let up and were not going to pull out kind of pull out every stop we can get more assistance in that announcement from President Biden comes at the end of the week were Horrors Of War were on full display yesterday. We saw what happened in gaza just pure chaos. When desperation turned deadly as trucks that were carrying much needed aid or swarmed by hundreds of starving people as were still working to confirm all of the grim details, what we do know is that Israeli Forces opened fire, arguing that their soldiers needed to protect themselves. Reports from gaza on the ground say that that sparked the trucks speed off and then crushing people in the crowd as they did so, leading to more than 100 people killed, hundreds more injured cnn, i should note, cannot independently verify those numbers at this time. But we did spend weeks working to reveal the facts of an earlier tragic moment. Cnns Jomana Karadsheh and a team of cnn journalist in unprecedented detail, documented one attack that killed more than half the members of one single family. I do want to warn you before you see this report that it contains disturbing video depicting dead bodies every patient here has a harrowing account of survival but it is the story of this one young woman and as youll see, would become key to uncovering an atrocity that until today had been hidden in the dark theyre all gone. I have no one left, 18 yearold druber of the juba told us she offered few clues as to what had happened to her and her family but a week later, a Cameraman Working For Cnn In Gaza was out filming as hes done every day for months he was one of the first to arrive in this area just after Israeli Forces had withdrawn. It was on that day, january 14, when he stumbled upon the scene of a horrific incident first, we had no idea this was connected to the bar until they start pulling documents from the rubble. Its gauses grim routine of trying to identify the dead then the startling discovery later that day, cnn producer abuse selfman screens the footage and sees roombas id this is where she was critically injured and the bodies are the remains of her family. Tiny corpses carried on blankets and in the corner, a woman sits covered in flies in her decomposing arms. A young man. But we still didnt really know what had happened here. It would be really helpful, especially if we could go through the Satellite Images, Disk Grisly Discovery was the start of a weekslong cnn investigation. We tracked down seven survivors, gathered video, satellite imagery, Israeli Military press releases we verified social media content and spoke with ballistic and forensic experts, allowing us to piece together the events of a bloody night of death and h4, amid intense and discriminant Israeli Military fire that left civilians dead we started by asking the idf about the incident, giving them pictures and exact coordinates the military said their troops had come under fire from that location on january 4. And they responded with a precise strike to remove an imminent threat and can confirm if the bodies are linked to that strike our investigation raises serious questions about the idfs actions that day this is where it all unfolded. Theres a wider area of salaheddin street. Before the war, it was an industrial zone. But israel designated Salaheddine The Evacuation Corridor out of Northern GazaBusiness Owners allowed hundreds of displaced people to stay in these warehouses. Suddenly in early january, war arrived on their doorstep. Eyewitnesses say The Warehouses on both sides of the road. We recreated in this 3d model were repeatedly struck from the ground and air families sheltering in The Warehouses on the left broke holes through back walls, escaping into the farmlands. For The Warehouse on the right, there was no escape for most. They were surrounded. They say the israeli shot at anyone who tried to walk out, something. The idf denies we tracked down robas mother and three siblings, separated from her during the attack. They confirmed that among the bodies, our cameramen filmed were five of ruba siblings. The youngest among them was zheng he was ten, and ali 13 what likely killed most of them was the shockwave from a massive 2000 pound bomb, according to Forensic Pathologists and Weapons Experts who examined are footage in satellite imagery, the Blast Shockwave is so powerful that it can rupture the lungs leaving victims to drown in their own blood. What the family didnt know was that roba was still alive, bleeding for four long days among the dead after our january 7 interview, we tried to find her again lost in the chaos of overwhelmed hospitals after weeks of searching, we found her miles away and refer receiving treatment with the israelis were outside shooting im started firing bombs. We were all injured and fell to the ground with robot desperate for help and her Little Brother Ali Fighting for his life for days. Israeli forces were right outside Satellite Images from january 5, one day after the attack show idf vehicles by The Warehouse and freshly bulldozed ground is closest 70 meters from where the siblings lay oh, my Family Members who are still alive left a relative a nice day. Mckend, they started bulldozing the place and dumped it on top of the dead people my siblings she and her relative felt they had to get out of this shelter, turned morgue. They decided to make a daring escape and were questioned by soldiers about links to hamas before making it to the relative safety of a local hospital can confirm these really militarys claim that their troops came under fire. And yet survivors, we spoke to tell us there were no militants in The Warehouses. Some witnesses say they heard what they called resistance fire, and local journalists that day reported clashes in the area cnn found that these really military has separately alleged there were hamas Weapons Facilities nearby, but never linked them to The Warehouse where the abu jibbas sheltered, which weve highlighted here on this idea of map however, it began, there is no doubt these really military used for russias firepower our the size of the bomb bytes nature, indiscriminate and survivors say they were not warned to leave by the military as it claims, it always tries to do in response to extensive questions from cnn, the idf claimed a told civilians to leave in the days before the deadly incident, but provided no evidence when asked we found the first time the military publicly said this part of gaza was no longer a safe Evacuation Route came in this post on x at 11 28 a. M. On january 4th, hours after the attack, id seen them at any level. They knew we were civilians. There. Drone saw everything. We had big white flags up. They said it a safe area. The south is safe. We came to the south for nothing they bombed us and killed are children the south. The events of january day on the small window into the vast undocumented suffering that these really militarys inflicted on civilians in gaza with Tens Of Thousands already killed leaving so many like the abu jibba family, grieving, traumatized, with no recourse to justice and accountability this is ship they died in front of me. I couldnt do anything, but we would love to be silly and play together. You get there. I mean, now those memories are gone. Jomana karadsheh, cnn, london and our thanks to jomana and her entire team for that deep investigative report in response to that report, i should note that the idfs Lieutenant Colonel peter lerner told cnn in part in a statement, quote, when we are going after hamas, after hamas is leadership, and when they are hiding being in the civilian areas, there are civilian consequences. We also heard from a spokesperson for the United NationsSecretary General calling for a full investigation into what was reported. I want to turn now to eylon levy, a spokesperson for the Israeli Government, who joins me here in studio. Its great to have you here at the location. Good to be there in new york. Just first on that that report from jomana i know we heard the idf, but if israel is dropping in 2000 pound bomb wire civilian saying they werent warned about that. It is desperately sudden. It points to the inhumanity of the Hamas Human Shields Strategy that hamas deliberately embeds its fighters within civilian areas because it knows that either at gains immunity for its fighters or civilians will be hurt and hamas wants civilians to be heard because its only strategy for trying to survive this war is to generate sympathy and International Pressure on israel to stop. Now what we heard from the Israeli Military here is that our forces came under direct attack from that facility. Now have soldiers are coming under attack. Clearly, there is no time to give a warning for people to evacuate, having already said that the militants, terrorists were operating in the area. If soldiers come under immediate fire, they do have a right to strike back. And that is why we call on civilians to get out of places where hamas is trying to use them as human shields. So that hamas cannot do that any longer. But if israel knows that there are civilians there in the survivors were saying that there were drones that they had major white flags. I mean, doesnt that make israel reconsider dropping a 2000 pound bomb that kills half the members of an entire family, the army, when of course, consider whatever specific munitions are necessary for precip specific operation. And i cant comment on operational matters because im not a military spokesman, but we think it is deeply tragic, deeply tragic. The war that hamas has brought on the people of gaza by deciding to declare this needless war on october 7, were a 107 attacks and deliberately fighting from inside civilian areas. And hamas does not, because it knows how it is manipulating International Public opinion. It knows that if it hides under civilian areas and keeps moving widths, civilians as they evacuate to safer zones. It deliberately keeps them in danger for us, every Civilian Casualty is a tragedy and for hamas, it is a strategy. And yes, its a strategy were trying to thwart it. Does do that. And obviously were knows theyre a Terrorist Group. We saw what they did on october 7, but i think people, it also raises questions about the burden on the Israeli Government and the responsibility when there are civilians there. But i want to ask you about the announcement that we got from the white house today, President Biden saying that the United States is going to orchestrate airdrops of aid into gaza. Does israel really think that . But thats the solution to the humanitarian crisis that its to the point where youve to airdrop aid into gaza. Sure. If i could just comment on what we said before israel is of course, trying to uphold international law, but its trying to do it in conditions where no army in history has ever had to deal with a Terrorist Group so deeply embedded within civilian areas, and that poses child challenges that no military in the world has had to deal with, and israel has having to innovate new ways to try to mitigate civilian people understand that. Its also really difficult to watch your report where someone lost half the members of their family, members of this. Its heartbreaking. It is tragic as they got no warning. It is tragic that hamas declared this warrant is fighting this war from inside civilian areas. We didnt want this war. We didnt start this war. We didnt expect this war. Were fighting this war because im retreated with 253 hostages and told us it wants to do it again and again, and it will unless it is stopped. And so we understand, we have to now, as for the specific question of humanitarian aid we want to see as much humanitarian aid get into gaza to the people people who needed while making sure that hamas cannot steal it. Now thats why weve done on the one hand, expanded capacity at the israeli crossings. There is now more than double the excess capacity at israels crossings to get more aid in, as we speak right now. There are 300 trucks worth of humanitarian aid sitting on the gazan side of the kerem shalom crossing, waiting for the un to pick it up and distributed. The aid is getting in the problem is that the un is struggling to distribute that aid at the pace that israel is facilitating its entry into gaza. Okay. But theres also a lot of aden and the other side of the border where this was posted by the former the former humanitarian coordinator for the United Nations, who is now working for the Norwegian Group here. And he was saying that that is a that cannot get in. But i wanted increasing i want to get to a generally what how much is getting it. But on the fact that the us is now orchestrating airdrops to go into that, is that really the solution israel thinks is the way to get out of this, the way to help feed these people in gaza. Well, there were two questions. One is the question of aid getting into the gaza strip, and there is enough capacity at israels crossings to get in as much aid as the international center. Currently, theres not a no, but then theres a question of how aid is being distributed in slide gaza. And were talking about air drops into areas that are difficult to reach because they are active war zones, because hamas is still fighting in the Northern Gaza strip. And because these are dangerous areas, and weve saw what happened just the other day with those horrific scenes of the fourth convoy of the week trying to take aid into Northern Gaza and being mobbed by desperate civilians two then got killed in a stampede. So one option is to airdrop aid there was a Successful Pilot this week in cooperation with i believe jordan, the uae, france, and the United States to airdrop aid into gaza. And were looking into other ways to deliver aid into Northern Gaza and make sure again, it gets to civilians who need it while making sure hamas easier, safer, easier way to do this than just simply airdropping, get anything. The reason you saw that chaotic incident is people are rushing these trucks because theyre starving. I mean, its desperation in its fullest extent that youre watching and we hear from the idf saying, well, our for
