pod.co >> this is cnn the world's news happening now and angry and frustrated president biden will momentarily speak to the israeli prime minister benjamin attack and after several world central kitchen aid workers were killed by an israeli airstrike. and cnn is on the ground in taiwan as the search for earthquake survivors continues. and we're now also learning about an easter sunday heist in los angeles, one of the biggest cash grabs in city's history. thieves reportedly stealing 30 million hello, i'm wolf blitzer in washington and year the cnn newsroom at any. >> moment now, president biden is due to hold a very important phone converse conversation with the israeli prime minister benjamin. the time you and it will almost certainly simmer with tension. a senior white house official says the president is quote, angry and we'll voices frustration over the israeli military's killing of seven aid workers monday in gaza, the founder of their charity, world central kitchen, wants an independent investigation and says the idf, the israel defense forces systematically targeted them let's see you in an analysis of videos of the aftermath shows the attacks appear to have been much precision strikes outside of the conflict zone. the entire convoy, two armored cars and one unarmored vehicle was struck. listen these was not used >> bad lag >> situation where we dropped the bomb in the wrong place or not. this was over 1.51, 0.8 kilometers with a very defined humanitarian convoy that had signs in the top in the roof i'm very colorful logo that we are obviously very proud of. that that's very clear who we are and what we do >> are cnn correspondence are covering all the angles of the support and story arlette saenz is over at the white house. jeremy diamond is joining us from tel aviv and natasha bertrand is over at the pentagon, are relentless let's begin with you has this call, this phone conversation been planned for awhile or was it scheduled after these aid workers were killed? >> well, well, if president biden is expected to convey his anger and frustration directly to israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu when the two men speak in the coming hours, this call oh, was actually scheduled after that israeli strike that. killed seven aid workers working with world central kitchen in gaza, a moment that is really prompted anger and outrage from president biden. but even as we have heard, this ramped up rhetoric from the president, from the administration, are relating to this incident what we have not seen yet is any change in us policy towards their support of israel's military campaign? against gaza officials yesterday were quite clear that there is no shift in policy at this moment really raising questions of whether israel will face any consequences for the us for this strike that. left seven dead including one american canadian citizen. now, this is it's just the latest flashpoint in an increasingly tense relationship between president biden and netanyahu. we have heard over the course of the past few weeks, the president saying that israel needs to take more care to protect civilians that is especially the case when they are discussing a potential israeli operation into the city of rafah. that is something that the white house and has really been trying to press. israelis on to consider alternative options other than a full-scale operation ground invasion there. but this call will be very closely watched to also see what kind of leverage influence the president will have over netanyahu as he continues his campaign to root out hamas in gaza. as the president's expected to talk about the deaths of these central world central kitchen workers, but also broadening out the conversation possibly to talk about humanitarian protections for aid workers going forward. of course, there are also still those ongoing negotiations to try to secure a temporary ceasefire in order to get hostages out of gaza and more humanitarian for an aid in and gaza. and then there are the concerns the administration has about that potential israeli operation. and rafah, this all comes as there is outraged from the international community. but president biden is also facing significant pressure here at home. he heard some of that frustration with his handling of the conflict firsthand on tuesday when he hosted muslim community leaders here at the white house as they shared their concerns. so a lot of big questions going forward for the president that's about whether there could be any alteration to their strategy and approach so far officials have said that there's no imminent changes expected. >> interesting guy standby. i want to bring jeremy and jeremy you're there in israel for the prime minister benjamin, a tiny out is facing a lot of pressure, enormous pressure from all sides at home, from the united states. it also from the international community. what is netanyhau's goal in this phone conversation? that's upcoming with the president well, clearly president biden intends to speak to him about these strikes against the world central kitchen convoy, which >> killed seven of these aid workers. and we've watched over the course of this week as israeli government officials, military officials, including the prime minister himself have really sought to convey the seriousness with which the israeli government and its military are taking what has been described here as a grave mistake, whether or not he had will have sufficient answers to the president's questions is another matter. altogether, but this obviously will add another layer of tension between these two men at a time when we have watched the us criticism of israel's conduct of the war in gaza. rising over the course of the last few months. but of course no real changes in us policy in terms of the supply of weapons and support for israel's military campaign against hamas in the gaza strip. but the undercurrent to all of this here in israel is also the fact that this is just one part of the pressure that the israeli prime minister is facing beyond the international pressure. he is also facing pressure here at home. we have seen rising protests against netanyahu over the course of the last several weeks with protesters going to his residence. earlier this week and last night, benny gantz, his chief political rival, a member of the war cabinet, calling for early elections as soon as september that will be another layer to what the prime minister is facing here. but for now, there is no clear mechanism for prime minister netanyahu's government to actually collapsed. for now, his position here seems secure in that regard. >> it's interesting jeremy's, you know, there's new reporting just out israeli news publications that israel has been using artificial intelligence to help identify bombing targets in gaza. tell us about that yeah this report coming from plus 972 magazine of reporting that the israeli military has been using an artificial intelligence >> program known as lavender to identify targets in gaza, effectively developing kill list of suspected militants which the israeli military then subsequently acted on. this report says that the military relied on the system to carry out strikes systematically targeting militants, including sometimes low level militants, while they were in their homes at night with their families, resulting in thousands of civilian casualties. the israeli military, for its part, didn't outright deny that this system exists, but they argued that this is merely a tool that is used in conjunction with human personnel who cross-reference this database to analyze and to determined targets before actually authorizing those strikes. but one source told plus 972 that human personnel served effectively as a rubber stamp, sometimes spending only 20 seconds actually verifying the information that this ai system was giving them yeah, 972 the country code for israel natasha, you're over at the pentagon for us. i know you have to a new reporting on the transfer of more us weapons, including bombs to israel. what are you learning? >> yeah. so we're >> learning that on monday, really just hours before this wck strike occurred, us authorized to transfer of over 2000 new bombs to the israelis, including over 1,500 pound bombs, as well as over 1,000 small diameter bombs. just adding of course to israel's arsenal at a time of growing international outrage, including from president biden, including from secretary austin over how they have been conducting this war in gaza. and while this approval of these munitions did come before that wck strike according to a state department spokesperson it did, of course, come after for 198 workers in gaza in the west bank had already been killed over the course of this nearly six month war. and so i think what you're going to see is based off of these increasing and ongoing munitions transfers to israel, munitions authorizations to israel, which have been previously approved in many cases over the last several years there's and therefore don't need new notifications two and approval by congress are going to be growing calls for the us to use these munitions transfers and approvals as leverage over israel's conduct. because right now of course, while the us is expressing outrage over these apparent targeting of the wck convoy over the lack of protection for civilians in gaza. and of course, over the lack of humanitarian aid getting into the enclave, many critics of president biden including many democratic lawmakers and democrats are saying that those words are not being matched with action and the us does have leveraged here that it could use in terms of arms sales, that these real is continued to ask for, including as recently as last week when israeli defense minister yoav gala was here that they could use to potentially try to change it fluids. israel's behavior moving forward so far as our lead said, we have not seen any imminent signs that a policy change is coming. >> natasha bertrand is a pentagon arlette saenz at the white house, jeremy diamond and tel aviv to all of you. thank you very much. let's discuss what's going on with cnn, political and global affairs analyst an axios reported barak ravid, barack, thanks very much for joining us. you're doing amazing reporting. i know you're hearing from your sources that the white house temperatures quote very high going into this phone call with the time you how difficult has this relationship become? not just between the united states and israel, but specifically between biden and the time you thank you. >> wove i think the relationship between biden and ten you at the moment are naibe at the lowest point ever and one of the reason that call that is taking place, i think in 15 minutes it's going to be so difficult is because wck, this organization headed by jose andres, has a special place in joe biden's heart. and the reason is, is that jose andres is a longtime supporter of president biden and a personal friend and when biden had to call jose andres to get to express condolences and tried to explain to him what happened this was i think a very difficult moment for biden, at least from what i hear from more than two or three us officials, they all say this was a very personal difficult moment for biden i think netanyahu will feel it very well today when biden calls him >> yeah, i suspect you're absolutely right a senior administration. i senior biden administration official says, president biden will express his frustrations on this call, but ben rhodes who had served as president obama's deputy national security adviser says this and i'm quoting him now until there are substantive consequences, the outrage does nothing bibi obviously doesn't care what the us says. it's about what the us does close quote so will this call barack really move the needle >> so first, i think ben rhodes is right in the thani you i don't i don't think that they are doesn't care about what the us says, but he obviously cares much more about what the us does. just the thing is that i don't think that biden is acting very differently than the obama administration. there was a a war in gaza in 2014451 days and the obama administration didn't act very differently than what biden is doing now, there was one case at the time that they delayed aid one weapons ship shipment was the end of that war, but nothing more than that. so i think it's a bigger thing then this administration would that administration because it is very hard politically for any us president to take a step like delay or condition arm supplied to israel. and it has political consequences inside the us especially on an election year and as you know, the tiny how is facing major, major backlash. a lot of protests going on in israel, major demonstrations just this week in jerusalem outside the knesset, a prominent member of his work cabinet, benny gantz it's now calling for early elections in september, so he can challenge and ateneo to become the next prime minister, how significant barack is all of this? >> i think it's very significant. i think that's on you. is very weak politically, is under a lot of pressure internally >> the war >> is not really moving anywhere, okay? there are not a lot of forces in gaza. he's been talking about the rafah operation for months, approving the plans again and again and again, but still not implementing it it has results in israeli public opinion is approval ratings are very low, but on the other hand, we have to remember, he still has a 64 member of knesset majority. even if benny gantz leaves the government today netanyahu is still the prime minister, and it could be very hard for anybody to bring down this government may be only if we'll see those demonstrations growing too much bigger numbers than they are right now. >> yeah, the polls that israel show he would lose the next election if it were to happen anytime soon as a result of his decisions over these past several months i am the past few years for that matter, as well. as, you know, the israeli military. and this is very significant, has temporarily now suspended leave for all of its combat units, including those in gaza and elsewhere in the northern part of israel, especially the announcement comes just a day after israel said it would increase recruit and call up air defense reserve forces. tell us about this. i suspect it's because there is a lot of concern in israel that iran might decide now to retaliate militarily for israel's airstrike against it. iranian consular building in damascus exactly. >> i think it's more than a concern. it's almost israeli officials almost treat this as a fact and are only waiting to see when the uranian retaliation will happen and how exactly it will look like. and i think there's a lot of concern not only in israel, but in. the biden administration, that this could be the moment where this conflict is becoming much, much bigger, something that the biden administration managed more or less to contain, not completely. we saw we see that there's fighting in lebanon. we see that there's skirmishes on the border with syria obviously yemen, but if iran comes into the picture we're looking at a whole different conflict here. and i think this is what the biden administration is hoping to prevent. and i think it's gonna be a prominent issue in the call between biden and netanyahu. and not only the issue of gaza yeah, there's no doubt that the israeli military is a bracing for some sort of iranian retaliatory strike. and then israel would retaliate to that this whole situation could escalate big time. it's an extremely dangerous situation unfolding in the middle east right now, barak ravid, thanks for your excellent reporting. we appreciate it very, very much. coming up
