More on all of our stories on our website gbnews. Com thats it for the moment. And now its back to emily and. Bev emily and. Bev very good morning. Its 930. Its me and emily this morning. Thank you for joining its me and emily this morning. Thank you forjoining us. So thank you for joining us. So more than 2750 people in gaza have been killed in retaliatory strikes by israel. The israeli strikes by israel. The Israeli Military says that the target targets are hamas infrastructure , not civilians, but this footage were about to show you has been filmed by a reuters cameraman, and it reveals the staggering devastation and loss of life in what were once streets, a market and a refugee camp inside gaza. Thats right. Camp inside gaza. Thats right. Well for those of you who are listening on the radio, you are being spared some of the most astonishing pictures of absolute devastation. And were looking devastation. And were looking at the framework of buildings which remain after the insides of these properties have been completely obliterated. I dont completely obliterated. I dont know about you, emily, but im always surprised when you see people Walking Around. Were seeing some people in the images right now. Youve got wire cables coming from the centre of what remains of buildings. One what remains of buildings. One gentleman walking along with a sort of basket on his head. I imagine trying to scavenge for anything that might be retrievable from these pictures in the distance youve got plumes of what appears to be smoke. Theres a massive plume there of dark smoke billowing into the sky. Its just a scene of destruction. Fire in the corners and in the of the buildings there. And total, total destruction, total devastation. Just a ghost town remains after these sorts of attacks which have just obliterated entire communities. Well, us President Joe Biden will visit the middle east on wednesday. Yes, the us and ministration is heavily pushing for an opening of the egypt gaza border. To thats allow International Citizens out and aid in. Well, Charlie Peters joins us now from the ground in tel aviv. Good morning, tel aviv. Good morning , charlie. Tel aviv. Good morning, charlie. How are you . How are you coping out there . How are you bearing up . And whats the very latest on, well, central tel aviv came under heavy rocket attack yesterday. There were five evacuate as well. We were reporting on the ground, especially while we were in a medical centre to, in short, turnaround round there where we had to see people rush around the hospital to seek shelter, even serving idf soldiers returning from the front line , then kind of limping front line, then kind of limping towards the shelters around them. But the situation in central tel aviv, dangerous as it is, is in relative safety in comparison to those in the north and the south. Just in the last houn and the south. Just in the last hour, weve had reports from the border region of metula, a small town there right in the tip of israels Northern Region where there has been anti tank guided missile attacks. Claim missile attacks. The idf claim from Lebanese Hezbollah, the idf say that they have returned fire on the point of origin of that attack with artillery fire. And this represents an escalation in that Northern Region over the last 72 hours. Last night, the idf said that they had also drone strikes, a set of hezbollah terrorists. What they said were members of that group planting an explosive device on the border. And this comes as last night irans foreign minister said that iran and its proxies were ready to take pre emptive action within hours if the situation in gaza continues. They said that they would not be able to stand by while they accused Benjamin Netanyahu of committing war crimes in gaza. He said also crimes in gaza. He said also that all of irans proxies in the region, he referred to them as the resistance, were ready and standing by. So that particular region in the north certainly gaining more attention and almost certainly will become and almost certainly will become a proper front in this war should that region in the south become worse and that land invasion occur. But of course, invasion occur. But of course, we do have us President Joe Bidens visit tomorrow. Its bidens visit tomorrow. Its a realistic possibility that the israelis will reduce their bombardment of gaza and hold off on any potential plans to attack while he is here to conduct what is likely to be some urgent humanitarian diplomacy meeting. Also with leaders in jordan and egypt and the Palestinian Authority to try and secure further humanitarian aid in the south. But i think what were also going to see is that every single foreign leader whos come here has been forced to run into shelter. We saw our own foreign secretary, cleverly secretary, James Cleverly running into a shelter in southern israel. Anthony blinken did. And i think that did the same. And i think that the militants in gaza and also those the north will like to those in the north will like to see footage of President Joe Biden, of course, in later rage, now to run away from and now forced to run away from and take shelter from those strikes that they are conducting on israel day and night. Now, charlie washington is also trying to rally key arab states to help head off what could be a wider region, whole war. I understand, joe biden is also visiting jordan. Also visiting jordan. Thats right. Yes well, abdullah, the king, there has been instrumental in securing, first further diplomacy for humanitarian situations in the last 72 hours when he met with Prime Minister rishi sunak in number 10 downing street on sunday, he described the blockade as a war crime. And the next day rishi sunak did phone the president of the Palestinian Authority. So jordan, i think, has an underrated role in the humanitarian situation here. We havent had much conversation about the role its playing. It has a crucial oversight of the situation in jerusalem and is also a sort of Halfway House between the western powers , between the western powers, particularly the us and those other arab states. It is a close ally of the United Kingdom and the us and has access to people in the middle east that most diplomatic relations in the west just wouldnt be able to achieve so easily. But that will be particularly an urgent need that humanitarian diplomacy as the situation in Southern Gaza disintegrates into mayhem. 49 disintegrates into mayhem. 49 people reportedly killed in israeli airstrikes on the Southern City of younis khan overnight. And this comes as overnight. And this comes as people in north gaza are being told by the israelis, you have told by the israelis, you have to flee south. But at the same time, they are reportedly striking the south, asking people to flee into an area where they are putting bombs on the ground. So us secretary of state Antony Blinken , when he state Antony Blinken, when he was here last week, one of his goals was to secure humanitarian safe zones in the south. But so long as bombardments continue and Water Supplies are cut off and Water Supplies are cut off and humanitarian aid cannot cross in from the egyptian side, it seems unlikely that civilians will be safe as they are forced to flee towards that crossing. To flee towards that crossing. We were seeing the pictures yesterday, charlie, of people amassing at the border rafah amassing at the border at rafah with the border with egypt. Do we any news whether that we have any news on whether that border be opened to allow border might be opened to allow people to escape . People to escape . Well, there have been several times now that that the Us State Department has claimed that the rafah crossing is expected to open and on every single time that opening has not occurred. That opening has not occurred. In fact, weve seen the situation declining in another direction. Yesterday last night, while we were reporting from the Sheba Medical Centre reports came to us that shelling had actually landed around the Border Crossing the hamas , a Border Crossing the hamas, a hamas affiliated Radio Station in Southern Gaza, claimed that the israeli is launched that attack. They have, of course, denied it. We dont know who committed that shelling on the region. Unverified reports at this moment on who conducted that attack. But, you know, as many people are talking about that crossing opening and many foreign nationals move to try and attempt to get out of the gaza strip, a battle zone that is becoming intolerable , is becoming intolerable, according to the un. It does seem as though that any hopes of it opening are diminishing, and that will be key reason for us that will be a key reason for us President Joe Bidens visit. It is a key part of this american diplomacy, getting foreign nationals out of the gaza strip and providing aid to those who have to remain. Have to remain. Okay. Thank you, charlie. Well be going back to charlie throughout the morning there in tel aviv. So police in brussels have shot a expected to be have shot a man expected to be the gunman who killed two swedish monday swedish nationals on monday evening. Evening. Local media reported the yes, local media reported the man shot in cafe this man was shot in a cafe this morning. Morning. Brussels has been on its higher highest terror alert after mondays attack. So a question really, should we be worried about more terror attacks in europe . Major general chip chapman is a former head of counterterrorism and ministry of defence and middle east expert. And im delighted to say joins us now. Good to see you, chip. Should we be more worried chip. Should we be more worried at the moment about terrorists here in the uk . Here in the uk . Well, lets separate two things. Firstly , in the uk, the firstly, in the uk, the threat level is i think mark said earlier, is substantial. And if it were to rise to severe, that would be because jtac takes the view that there is enough background noise to mean that we need more protective security measures and to go to severe. And last time to go to severe. And last time we did actually was in we did that actually was in november 21st based on two attacks in europe and weve seen attacks in europe and weve seen at least two attacks in europe in the last week. The one in france in arras and the one yesterday in belgium. Now, the yesterday in belgium. Now, the tempo of those attacks in europe is also unusual in terms of the statistics. So the europol organisation gives you the stats on year on year. Last Year Organisation gives you the stats on year on year. Last year there on year on year. Last year there were only there were four People Killed in terrorist attacks in europe. Two were from jihadists and two were from right wing. Weve seen three People Killed in last week. Thats spike. This this attack in in in in brussels. Horrific week. But its not that unusual in belgium. 2018, a prisoner stabbed two female Police Officers is claimed responsibility. 2016 claimed responsibility. 2016 suicide bombers attacked a metro station airport. Also claimed by is that killed 32 people 2014 the Jewish Museum of belgium was targeted when a gunman opened fire. Three people dead. There and a fourth died due to injuries. This is becoming i dont want to say commonplace, but its becoming more and more frequent, is it not . Yeah. No. So youre using an availability heuristic because you recognise terrorist attacks which kill lots of people. You think theyre prevalent on a year on year basis. In fact, since the height of is most terrorist attacks in europe have been going down. But that doesnt mean that we should be complacent. And thats why, for example, belgian authorities complacent. And thats why, for examraised belgian authorities complacent. And thats why, for exam raised theirgian authorities complacent. And thats why, for exam raised their alertauthorities complacent. And thats why, for exam raised their alert levelities complacent. And thats why, for exam raised their alert level to s have raised their alert level to the top level as the french have done so. But youve got to be very, careful on the very, very careful on the statistics most the statistics. So most of the attacks in europe last year, statistics. So most of the attachereeurope last year, statistics. So most of the attachere 28, pe last year, statistics. So most of the attachere 28, what ;t year, statistics. So most of the attachere 28, what they|r, statistics. So most of the attachere 28, what they call there were 28, what they call failed, foiled or completed attacks in seven countries. Most of those were actually by left wing and anarchists. They werent jihadists. Wing and anarchists. They werentjihadists. Six wing and anarchists. They werent jihadists. Six of those 28 were jihadists. 28 were jihadists. Were learning more about about the suspect now. The Prime Minister, alexander de croo. Earlier, he said the suspect was a man tunisian origin who had a man of tunisian origin who had been country been living in the country illegally. He, the justice illegally. He, the Justice Minister, said he unsuccessfully sought asylum in belgium in november 2019. This often seems to be the case in europe that these people who go on to commit terrorist attacks are already known by the authorities. Is. Thats right. Its not actually a very good nomenclature , though, to say nomenclature, though, to say that people are known to authorities. So everyone whos actually been prison for any actually been to prison for any offence is known to authorities. Its would be its where they would be positioned the priority grid, positioned on the priority grid, the prioritisation grid in terms of Counter Terrorism, there is an issue, of course, of someone whos failed as an Asylum Seeker being then deported, and thats exactly what we saw was the problem. For example , in the in problem. For example, in the in the liverpool bombing in november 21st, which the recent report actually said that it wasnt a terrorist attack. It wasnt a terrorist a
