hello and welcome everybody, it's 8:30 p.m. in here in the iranian capital tehrany, watching press tv's world news, our top story for this half hour, the gaza strip is reeling from israel's military campaign with the southern city of rafa witnessing a fresh air strike ahead of a looming ground offensive by the regime. nearly dozen palestinians were killed and number of others injured in the attack, targeting two residential buildings. rafa is hosting some 1. 5 million palestinians taking shelter from attacks in other parts of gaza. israel has intensified its air raids on the city while it's preparing for a ground assault as well. the planned attack has sparked fears of a wider tragedy in gaza where palestinians are already grappling with the dire situation. israel launched its war on gaza early october killing nearly 28, 800 palestinians, most of those killed are women and children. we demand sease fire. that's a

message from a palestinian girl who lives as a refugee in the city of dar albalot. she told our correspondent that she wants to send her message to the world through press tv. let's take a listen to what she had to say. we live under continuous israel bombing and live in very harsh condition that we have never experienced before and didn't imagine that we would one day left. we are suffiring a luck of food and drink, we are in real femine, at first we though that this world like all other wars would last for a while and would end, but as you can see now is still there, the world's continuing, everyone is in great sadness because he has lost his loved one, his relatives and the home in which he lives, we demand a cease fire and we want to live like the rest of the world, hope this message reaches. palestinians say they

will not leave rafa despite israeli threats of a ground attack on the city, they say that they'll stay in palestine even if it means that they'll eventually be killed. gaza is our pride, it's our home, we were born and raised in it. our egyptian brothers are hospitable, but our lives would be much harder than living in the gaza strip. it will be a difficult life that we are not accustomed. to the gaza strip is our people, our life, our country where we grew up, we cannot leave our home behind and go to sinai, how can we leave our country, how many times shall we get this place in our country so that we can stay in it? we refuse to go to any other faraway country, we want to stay in our country, we will accept staying here in the tents over living, no matter what, our country is precious to us, we're from gaza, from palestine. were the people of palestine,

and no matter how much we get hurt and what they do to us, we will not migrate from our land. this is our land and we cherish it, its name is palestine. since the day we came to this earth, we were thought that this is palestine and its capital is the holy jerusalem, we will never migrate and leave it, we will continue to struggle onto the day of judgment for the sake of palestine. the israeli military has raided the main hospital in gaza's southern city. charity group, doctors without borders says an unspecified number of people were killed and injured. israeli troops storm. nasa hospital after

laying siege to the facility for days. the hospital also hosted the displaced palestinians when the israeli military rated it on thursday, the regime said it believed the bodies of dead captain. were being held inside the facility, hamas has denied that. it said the rate shows the genocidal nature the israeli crimes in gaza. the un rights office also said the rate appears to be part of israeli attacks targeting life-saving civilian infrastructure in gaza, especially hospitals. the office said it is documented similar raids in other parts of gaza, describing the impacts on civilians as appalling. meanwile the palestinian red creson society says israeli forces have kidnapped 20 of its staff and patients at alamal, another hospital in hanyunis. malnutrition is threatening the lives of tens of thousands of children in gaza, that's according to the un agency for children,

unicef says the number will continue to rise if the situation does not change. children. and among the cases we checked was this child who is 2 years and seven months old, before the war, before october 7, she waited 11 kilograms, she's now 7 kilograms, so she's suffering from malnutrition, her situation is difficult, she has complications, she suffers from dehydration and she needs help, we have heard the appropriate amount of nutrition supplements, we're trying our best to help her, we're referring her to hospital where she can get treatment, that's all we could... do so far, due to the conditions of the war in gaza, the health and nutrition situation for children have changed, it has become incomplete health system without vitamins, proteins or fats in the healthy amounts. children are relying on canned food which contains preservatives, all this along with

the fact that the water is polluted, the sand, the living conditions here that can spread diseases and germs, all this causes malnutrition among children in displacement camps in r. there are 32500 children under the age of five who are risk of acute malnutrition. unicef expects that in the coming days and weeks there will be at least 10,00 children whose lives are essentially at risk if the situation does not change. this danger also comes as the health and drinking water systems face a complete collapse in the gaza strip contributing to the spread of diseases. this creates a deadly cycle because we know that if children who are mal-nourished contract disease, their lives are more at risk. the spokesman for hamas's military wings says palestinian resistance against israel will continue until the regime's last soldier leaves the gaza strip.

abu ubida said the resistance fighters have already inflicted unprecedented losses on intruding israeli forces. the spokesman also stated that hamos has been trying to protect. captives its holding in gaza, but israel has ignored warnings about the threats to their lives. he added that casualties among the captives have increased greatly since the beginning of the israeli unslaught on gaza. hamas has announced the death of several captives in the regime's air strikes. abu reiterated that operation alafsa flood will mark the end of the oldest occupation in contemporary era and will be a turning point in the history of the palestinian nation. the inhumanity must be stopped, that's what brazilian president louisianaula de silva has said as he criticized rich countries for cutting funds to the palestinian refugee agency onrua. at the time when the palestinian people need support, the most

rich countries have decided to cut humanitarian aid to the un agency for palestine refugees. the recent allegations against the agencies staff need to be properly investigated, but they cannot. paralyze it, palestinian refugees in jordan, syria and lebanon will also be left destitute. this inhumanity and cowardies must be stopped. enough of collective punishment, my government will make new contribution to anrua. we urge all countries to maintain and increase their contributions. called for a cease fire in gaza to allow for sustainable humanitarian aid into the palestinian territory, he was addressing an arab league meeting in egypt last month, the us along with dozen countries, mostly western states, suspended funds to enroa, they did so after tell aviv alleged that several of honor staff had helped hamas in its alaxa flood operation on southern israel on october the 7th. an investigation has been launched, but israel

has offered no evidence for its claim. onroa has warned it will face cash crunch from march if it receives no funding. the agency provides assistance to palestinian refugees. in several locations, including syria, lebanon, gaza, and the occupied territories. our correspondent in dar albella and central gaz. explains what the consequences would be if onro is forced to stop its humanitarian operations in the territory due to the lack of funds. the entire population of gaza slept the 2.3 million palestinian civilians would face a real famine and this famine actually is uh is getting more clearer uh in the gaza city and even in the northern parts of gaza slip as it was reported that many palestinian civilians actually passed the... and died as they do not have anything eat over the last

couple of days, so this is a real manifestation of the continuous israeli of the continuous israeli attack and this salvation that is used by the israeli incubation forces as a war weapon against the palestinian people, so it's highly expected that hundreds of the palestinian people would die, if this contin this condition and this situation. continues for so long time because we are talking about at least three consecutive weeks and the palestinian people there actually are out denied their basic humanitarian needs and they do not have anything eat and uh uh we are talking about at least 600 uh 600,00 palestinan civilians are still uh stranded and stuck in gaza city and in the northern parts and over these harsh conditions and catastrophic conditions the palestinian people there were enforced to use the animal foods. and we are talking about unprecedented conditions, what is going on is uh is insane, it's it's undescribable

when it comes to the palestinian people and how they are striving and how they are facing a real famine on the ground, and apparently as you know that the israeli occupation forces uh systematically and deliberately attempting to deepen this kind of the suffering and all this kind of the antagonizing of the yonrua and the human. material rights, human rights organizations, all all all this kind of all these sorts of these actions taken by the israeli incubation forces against those organizations actually come in the context of the israeli of the israeli policy to turn gaza into an unlivable place.

i think that the um drop economic activity, the the costs of the conflict, both military and uh economic uh on the israeli regime are fairly severe. because the workers in the technology sector mainly our reserves in this really are. welcome back, the leader of the hezwella resistance movement is slammed. israeli attacks on civilian areas in southern lebanon, he warned that the regime will pay with blood for such aggression, we always

said that we cannot tolerate harm to civilians, the enemy must understand that they went too far in this issue, brothers and sisters, i tell you and to all those who are listening to the friend and the enemy, and children who were killed in these days in and elsewhere in the south in southern villages, the enemy will pay the price of spilling their blood and they will pay the price of this blood with blood. now warned israel that the resistance movement enjoys advanced missile capabilities, he said has weapons can reach. as far as the occupied city of ilot. that chief heiled the ongoing resistance operations against israel. he said the

resistance front has shattered the myth of israel's invincibility and unmasked the regime. on another note. nasur allah slammed washington's unconditional support for israel in its genocidal war in gaza. he said us officials are responsible for every drop of blood spilled in the region. nasa said without american military support, the israeli onslot on gaza would stop immediately. he said despite the western. naid for israel, the regime has failed to achieve its stated goals in gaza and will continue to do so, an israeli air strike has hit a house in... southern lebanon on intense fighting between the regime and the lebanese resistance movement. at least three civilians were killed in the attack, separate israeli strike on southern lebanon killed a hezbulah fighter as well. also on wednesday, nearly dozen people, including six kids lost their lives in the regime strikes, targeting lebanese villages in the south. the latest

targeting residential areas and residence, very obviously we have. three last marters, although they are considered members of the amal movement, but they are not a military uh movement that is, but they they are considered part of the civilian structure basically in the lubanese community, and so the israelis are attempting to lure the resistance in some way uh, however the resistance seems to be still calm, they're still sticking to targeting only military posts, military devices, military... soldiers and israeli soldiers, that is of course uh the israelis, although hasbullah has not claimed responsibility, people have once again taken to the streets in the yemeny cities of sana and sauda and it shows support uh for palestinians in the gaza strip.
