It comes as the palestinian red crescent says one of its drivers was killed in the occupied west bank while trying to treat people injured by gunshots fired by israeli settlers on friday. the health ministry in the territory gave a similar account of the death of 50 year old mohammed awad allan. some hebrew language media reports said he was killed by firing from the israeli armed forces, others that he was shot by armed settlers. there was no immediate comment from the idf. separately, palestinian officials said that at least 1a people, including a boy and a gunman, were killed in an israeli military operation in the nur shams refugee camp, in the west bank. funerals have just been held for some of the dead. here in uk, the conservative mp mark menzies, who was suspended over allegations he misused campaign funds, is to quit as an mp at the next election.
About $14 billion of it is for military aid, a large chunk of that will go on replenishing israel s iron dome missile defences. equally, a large chunk will also go on buying more arms and resupplying, and resupply and things like that. the extra 9 billion or so, you know, is for humanitarian relief that one assumes will be spent on the israeli side of the relief effort, in and around gaza. but it is a substantial amount of money. yeah, the palestinian president spokesman calling it an act of aggression against palestinian people that would cause thousands more casualties in gaza. the attention is back on gaza, isn t it, after those tensions between iran and israel eased, and in particular, rafah? yeah. because the israeli government has made it very clear that they wish to mount a military operation
By the united states state department. and i think netanyahu is right. and also his opponent in the blue and white party said the same thing. why are you doing this? this happened not with gaza but actions of the west bank. everyone needs to step back a bit especially that state department and realize this is alex a fight going on sometimes fights are not fun, they are not clean these things happen and for that last few months collateral damage will happen in fights like this. or the like it or not you almost have to accept the fact it does happen. especially going to a military operation you tell people when you start a war it s never going to be cleaned pretty have to understand this collateral damage when things like this happens. it s almost like this does not make any sense to anybody especially those in israel. eric: lieutenant colonel keith kellogg thank you for your insight on that and thank you for your services. general good to see you. thanks eric. arthel: more money coming to new york city to tilt the flight of
Military pressure now look like? it appears that it will look like a coming ground offensive of significant military operation in rafah, that southernmost city in gaza, where more than 1 million palestinians are currently living. the israeli military s chief of staff, general herzi halevi, on sunday, approving plans for the continuation of the war in gaza, holding a situational assessment with other top israeli military commanders and the continuation of the war does indeed seem to mean a coming ground offensive in rafah, which was also the subject of that israeli war cabinet meeting. we know that last week the israeli military was set to already begin evacuating rafah. they delayed those plans as they prepared for a military response to that iranian attack last weekend. with that out of the way, now, israeli officials have indicated to me that a rafah ground offensive is indeed in the offing. now, all of this comes as the united states, is of course expressed serious concerns about a potential
Gaza continues and israel has - the backburner for now. the war in gaza continues and israel has hit i gaza continues and israel has hit targets in and around rafa? that was somethin: targets in and around rafa? that was something that targets in and around rafa? that was something that people targets in and around rafa? that was something that people seem - targets in and around rafa? that was something that people seem to - targets in and around rafa? that was something that people seem to have | something that people seem to have forgotten about, certainly in the news for the last few days but for more than six months there has been an intense war in gaza, more than 30,000 people killed, most of them and many of them civilians according to the hamas run health ministry and there were casualties overnight, israeli airstrikes in central gaza and most notably in the south. rafa is a city in southern gaza, israel alleges that hamas or the remnants of hamas and its leadership are still based. the israeli prime minister has found on many occasions that there needs to be and will be a full scale military operation in the city and americans in particular yesterday warning israel against that but those warnings are falling on deaf ears and i think once this religious holiday of passover has finished in about a week, i think there will probably be a nod towards
Any enemy with malicious intentions against islamic iran s land or sky. reporter: the situation with iran is de-escalating, the war in gaza continues, nearing its seventh month. hospital authorities in gaza say an israeli airstrike in a house in the southernmost city of raf ah killed nine people. an estimated 1.4 million palestinians seeking shelter there. the majority displaced from other parts of gaza. a city israel said it intends to enter in its next phase of the war. the us has been adamant they don t support any military operation by israeli forces as us officials in the biden administration stress they want to see not only more humanitarian aid being tricked into gaza but they want israel to come up with a plan to shelter innocent civilians during the war. griff: there s more action on
The capacity to attack israeli positions and we have seen the houthis from yemen do the same. so there is still tension and threats between israel and iran. what is happening overnight is that more than six months long war in gaza is intensifying. israel made it clear that it will launch a full scale military operation in the southern city of rafah. the americans and the british are trying to warn israel against that. i don t think it will happen in the next few days because we have thejewish passover holiday starting on the weekend but there are strikes in rafah overnight with airstrikes in central gaza overnight and civilian casualties according to the hamas run health ministry. thank ou ve the hamas run health ministry. thank you very much- time now is 7:05. the issue of speed limits in built up areas is one we speak about a lot and that is the focus for you this morning.
Where israel alleges that hamas, or the remnants of hamas and its leadership, is still based. the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, has avowed on many occasions that there needs to be and will be a full scale military operation in rafah. and the americans in particular, even yesterday, were warning israel against that, but those warnings are falling on deaf ears. and i think once this israeli religious holiday of passover has finished in about a week, i think there will probably be a nod towards much greater israeli military operations in southern gaza, but we saw some of that last night, with reports of several civilians being killed. meanwhile, the humanitarian situation in gaza isn t improving either? no, that is one reason and perhaps the main reason for the american and british warnings to israel, because they know a full scale military operation in rafah, where there are more than i million
Allowed this bakery in gaza city to reopen for the first time since the war began. translation: finally, i there is something to eat. you can go to the bakery and buy bread. just a few days ago, it was hard, we were looking for wood, flour and you couldn t find anything to feed the children. but for most gazans, the brutal reality of war is a constant companion. at the najar hospital in rafah, parents and siblings consoled each other after several civilians, including children, were reported killed in overnight air strikes. israel said fighterjets and other aircraft struck dozens of terror sites. among the targets, it said, was military infrastructure, compounds and armed terrorists. the us has repeatedly urged israel not to launch what is expected to be a major offensive in rafah. we cannot support a major military operation in rafah. we believe that a major military operation, with a large presence
