for everyone in the gaza strip, we have no of safe passage throughout the gaza strip and we don't know where we could go, how we could go and when we could go? the situation in rafan khan union remains dire, and it constant bombing and shelling. the un and other humanitarian agencies have warned of an impending catastrophe as israelly blockade and attacks have severely limited the access to food, water, fuel, electricity and medicine. un has estimated that over 80% of the population in gaza is in need of urgent humanitarian aid. nearly 28,600 palestinians. mostly women and children have been killed since israel launched its onslot on gaza early october. hundreds of palestinian medical staff have been killed or injured in israel's relentless attacks in gaza. some of them have been directly targeted while on

duty to rescue those falling victim to the attacks. press tv's musaba reports from deral ballah central gaza. start of the ongoing israeli aggression on the gaza strip, medical staff have been subjected to systematic attacks by the israeli occupation forces. hundreds of individuals working emergency services across all hospitals and health facilities have been killed or injured while carrying out their rigid of evacuating palestinan civilians who are targeted by the israeli forces every moment. i'm amen nasir, a paramedic working at alexa martia's hospital. at 6:30 we were in. informed that there had been an air strike in derebala, we immediately moved with the ambulances to the location, once we reached the targeted area, the israeli war planes attacked nearby place, suddenly a large piece of sharpenel hit me causing severe bleeding, the next thing i

knew i woke up in a hospital, the doctors told me that my leg needed to be amputated and as you can see, lost my leg, all across the world, the special cl this medical stuff were provided them with the protection needed during times of wars and conflicts as guaranteed by international laws and regulations. however, the israeli occupation forces are accustomed to crossing overward lines, sezing every opportunity to target and dismantel the health sector in gaza, sector already suffering from years of inhumane sie by the israel regime. we face lot of difficulties, we work with limited capabilities, the... violences are obsolete. every time we go to evacuate the injured, we are targeted by the israeli forces. i have been targeted repeatedly by the israeli drones. even many of the people leading us to places attacked by israeli war planes have been targeted and killed. one of our ambulances was attacked by israeli tanks and

is now out of service. the only thing that explains the systematic israeli attacks and the haver created in gaza's health sector is the policy that the israeli occupation has towards god. which aims to increase the number of palestinian casualities as mean of collectively punishing the people of gaza. the israeli genocide is still ongoing in gaza addition to targeting health facilities and hospitals. they target the medical staff. we are talking about 340 palestinian paramedics and doctors intentionally killed by israeli forces with 99 individuals kidnapped and they are. objected to all sorts of brutal tortures like what happened to dr. muhammad abu salmiah, the director general of the al-shif hospital who had his limbs fractured. therefore, we demand all human rights organizations to fulfill their responsibilities and interven to stop this

genocidal war. it's worth mentioning that roughly 30 palestinian health facilities were put out of service due to the relentless israeli attacks that destroyed 134. ambulances, this has left the still functioning hospitals totally overwhelmed with the high number of casualities, while thousands remain trapped under the heaps of deprey caused by the seasless israel air strikes. the systematic attacks against the palestinian medical staff working to rescue the palestinian civilians come against the backdrop of the main goal the israelicubation regime is seeking, turning gaza into an unlivable place and ethnically cleansing the indigenous. palestinians in the devastated strip. press tv, the central area of gaza strip. it's time now for the news review of

this bulleton. in the egyptian capital, cairo, negotiations are underway to bring more than four months of the u.s. azuly genocide in gaza. to a halt, the palestinian resistance movement hamas says it has sent a delegation to kairo to meet with the egyptian and qatari mediators. the turkish president has also arrived in cairo for talks with president abdel. the heads of israel's spy agencies musad and shinbet sat down with us, egyptian and qatari representatives on tuesday to secure a ceasefire deal. no significant breakthrough has been achieved in negotiations that are said to take another three days. israel media has revealed the prime minister benjamin netanyahu is opposed to proposal put forward by spy chiefs a deal. hamas has accused netanyaho of trying to buy time to pursue his own agenda while proposing a seizfire. hamas wants a full halt to israel. strikes, troop withdraw and prisoners swap among other conditions. jim kas a

political analyst and blogger joining us from new york, we also have sande alasado is a journalist and commentator joining us from beirot. welcome to you both. i'll start with you jim kavana first. so you had the first round that was proposed, it was a three-stage uh jim kavana, are you with us? no, we don't have jim kavana. let me go to sandal asad. sand asad. "there was this uh first proposal just a couple weeks back, i believe, a three-stage one of which uh hamas had given uh an initial green light so to speak, but there were some terms that it revised and it sent uh was sent to israel of which the prime minister netanyahu rejected. now we don't know about what has happened in the past 48 hours in terms of what was on the table, but there must have been some kind of reason for this to want to be continued. what do you think uh about the whole thing anyways, when you have such divergent views, for example

hamas has said we want all the regime forces out of the gaza strip, that's just one of them. okay, first of all, we have also to mention that the the aggression is led currently against the people of gaza is led and launched by by the us and the decision of the war. and stopping the war or continuing the war is uh is the decision is decision of the american administration. so as we are reaching the point of the presidential elections in the united states, the united states especially biden is trying to pressure netanyahu and the zionist regime into stopping this uh genocide uh in order because we know that the this is attempt to burnish the the bloody image of the us after they

have committed they have killed more than roughly 2800 palestinian civilians in the gaza strip and after the clear failure of the zionist appartite regime to to achieve any of it aims or goals of this aggression, they have failed to free any of theirs of their, they have failed to free their their prisoners from the from the palestinian resistance, and they have failed to weaken the the the palestinian resistance, we have seen how the people of gaza stand side by side with their resistance and have rejected the the the american... design is decision to uh to replace them and to uh excel them to

sai. uh, when you talk about the us role then uh, can you give us more of an idea as to uh why it is that out in the public uh the us is saying uh, you know, you need to stop the civilian casualties, the words that joe biden used was it's over the top, but you just had for example the u-feign policy chief say, well, if the us is saying that, why does to stop supplying the israel regime with military equipment and arsenals. what what is going on there? do you think the us is uh is saying one thing out in public but in private it's another story? exactly, exactly. the us has led this war against the palestinian righteous resistance since day one, the american officials try and before the the public opinion, the... us, especially as we are reaching the point of the presidential

elections in order to burnish their image, but we have seen how they have supported netanyahu, how they have supported them with all the military, logistic and esponage aid since the beginning of this aggression, also they have led another aggression against the... many people because they have, they have been been aiding the palestinians, they have been bombarding ah the the yemani territories just because the... yemanies have opted to to stand in solidarity with the palestinian people, so this is a full hypocrisy by the us and we we have experienced the the hypocrisy of the western administration during the 2006 war against lebanon, how they have been totally complicit

in the bloodshed of the libanese. at that time and finally um we still have another few days left to these talks, they have said that, they've made that announcements um, which makes one uh wonder, well there must be something that is leading them to want to continue with the talks, do you think there's any chance of these talks bearing any fruit? okay, if these uh negotiations are serious because of the steadfastness of the... palestinian resistance, the libanese resistance, the iraqi resistance, the yemani resistance, the resistance access, because they have finally noticed that they won't be able to to put an end to to to pressure those resistance, righteous resistance faction into

surrender, and as they have seen that you know also in the uh wide territories, the now the the signist colonial settlers have are pressuring the zienist government to stop this war, because they have seen also the hypocrisy of their government and how it has dealt with the the the file of the prisoners with with the palestinian resistance, so if these negotiations... take it place, it's because they have failed and they have, they have failed to achieve the goals of this aggression, and i think that it's it will be a short sease fire and then it will be a complete end of this aggression and immense victory of the resistance action, despite all

the dear sacrifices that have been paid during this aggression that has been let by... and design occupation. all right, thank you. we now have jim kavana now with us, political analyst and blogger, who joins us from new york. jim kavana, welcome. we're looking at these talks uh, it's uh, i'm going to call it round two, because round one netanyahu came and flatout rejected it. uh, he's still rejecting it uh, but we're not sure what he's rejecting this time around exactly, because uh, when they're such differences in the core issues, um, we could name and we can name number of them. um, it's still a wonder why it is that they're even having these talks in the first place. what's your view on this? is there something we don't know that's going on behind the scenes? um, and of course, if you think that these talks are going to bear fruit in any shape or form? do not think they will bear fruit uh, and i'm not uh aware, i don't think there's

anything serious going on behind the scenes. uh, but you, i think it's kabuki theater, i think this. being done for the benefit of the arab states, for the benefit of the american public and the european public, and and they have to pretend there, something is possible here that side steps all, as you say, all the fundamental issues that are there, but israel is saying very clearly, we're going for complete victory in in in gaza, they're not going to get complete victory, look everybody knows and everybody should know, and not be fooled, this is not about the the struggle between the fight. between hamas and israel, whether israel's after italians of hamas fighters in in raffa, they are after killing and expelling as many palestinians as they want. okay, the fight with hamas and that's all going on, that's important, but it doesn't determine what whether or not the palestinian where the palestinians are going to be in gaza, are going to be in six months or three months or year, and israel wants to invade gaza in order to to force the

palestinians to flee, to force egypt to open its border, to force other countries to take them, they are sitting. saying, watch us, we're killing everybody in gaza until you let them go, until you take them away, we're not going to stop, so you, and hamas is saying, we want israel to get out of gaza, to israeli army not to control gaza anymore, and israel is saying, that's that going to happen, we are going to continue as we have, have vedo power over everything that happens in gaza, and the americans are completely behind israel, and this will not stop until some military force challenges israel, says, egypt can open his border, saying bring. is forced to take them out, and you don't think, because i guess some beirout says that, uh, this is one way or another, and aside from her, many have said that, is going to work against uh, which it already has, work

against uh the us president biden coston politically, especially with the upcoming elections, is that factor in all of this? i will work against biden, uh, but look, the united states isionist country, they don't care, they're going to let israel do what they want, they're going to give israel every bomb and every every bullet that they need, and this will in the long run. quote unquote, work against israel, it may not be such a long run, but it's going to be heck of a long run for the for the people of gaza, they are starving, and israelis are destroying food warehouses while children are stoping, nobody's stopping them from doing that, they're complaining about it, they're saying what a terrible thing it is, we don't really want them to do that, we keep telling them they're over the top, but we keep giving them the weapons to do it, so you have this problem, which is serious problem, the fight over zionism and the future of zionism is at stake here, and israel knows it, and knows it, the palestinian resistance know it, but that fight is going to take a little longer than is necessary to save the people of gaza from, hundreds of thousands of them from

starving to death or being or leaving, starting to leave the country, which will eventually happen if if there's other alternative for them, there's no place else for them to go, so this is very difficult situation, and ultimately it will be solved by definitely by the resistance and the arm combat out of the resistance, but it's going to need an armed force stepping in, very soon, right now, months ago, and saying, we are not going to allow you to prevent humanitarian aid and reconstruction from coming into gaza. all right, thank you. we're going to leave it there, jim kavan, a political analyst and blogger, and thank you, sondos, journalist and commentator. thank you to you. with that we come to an end for this news review. "israely warplanes have struck several villages in southern lebanon, killing four civilians and injuring nine others. a mother

and her two children are among the civilian casualties. israely shelling has also targeted other areas in southern lebanon. early in the day, lebanese resistance had carried out a missile attack against an israeli command center, the northern occupied palestinian territories. chief said hasan nasulah vod on tuesday that the resistance. movementts attacks will end only when israel holts this war in gaza. has been exchanging fire with israel since the beginning of the regime's genocidal war on gaza. of course says his recent missile attack on an israelity command center was in response to the regime shelling of southern lebanon. has responded to the israeli presumptuous. shelling in in lebanon, going further away from to other areas, reaching towns that are close to saida for example, and so this is one of the responses, i believe in one part

the retaliation of hazbullah for the israeli also, assassinations that are occurring inside lebanon, and so we see that from this this confirmation we have several rockets that are perhaps medium range rockets or they are different types of rockets that are being being used in new way or in a manner that is efficient to the extent that they are not being detected or at least not being intercepted by the iron dome, but just to also put things into perspective, we also know that there were several areas that were targeted and we have sirens that were sounding throughout all of the gilli region just before the israeli media spoke about the fact that rockets did reach at least three different. as we're talking about not only the central command of the northern uh region for the israeli media, but also we're talking about the miron airbase and another

headquarters in safad, and this is very significant military base in safat we are told, and so we are talking about significant um targets, and with that we come to an end for this additional news, you can always find out more on our website all thews.pressv.ir. it's bye-bye for now. libya is a north african country, the country has two competing governments, the tripoly based high state council and the house of representatives. libya is also at the center of a migrant crisis. this country is also one the richest countries in africa in terms of oil reserves. i mean. the us israeli genocide
