the, the, you're watching dw new is coming to live from burly steps of pressure on israel, not to launch a full scale assault on rafa. as a city and southern gauze that comes under renewed bombardment, us officials, confirmed the bike and administration held back a shipment of bombs to israel last week. more palestinians are on the move again. as israel forces close in on the army sides is conducting a limited operation to kill a most fighters in the city. also on the program, the state will be a witness as an apparent assault on

a senior german politician. it is the latest in a series of nationwide incidence as fears grow for the security campaigners the i'm quite richardson. thank you very much for joining us. and us official says the white house paused a shipment of arms to israel over concerned about its planned assault on rafa in southern gaza. the officials at the biden administration was worried about the use of 2000 pounds bombs in the city where more than a 1000000 ga, since our sheltering israel continues to bombard rafa. the army says it's conducting a limited operation to kill how much fighters and dismantle the groups. infrastructure as gets right across to dw is correspondent benjamin office group are in washington dc. for more on this story, benjamin tell us about what was in about weapons shipments that the west has

apparently now paused. the the information that we're getting from this us official that you mentioned is that this shipment was supposed to consist of 3500 bonds. 1800 of them weighing 900 kilograms and others a weighing 225, a kilogram. so $3000.00 for a $500.00 in total, according to this official with a focus of the us being concerned that these explosives could, it'd be use indeed in dens and settings and girlfriend solving cause of the white house has repeatedly stressed that 8 opposes and invasion of rough and solving cause that has hinted at many times that it could indeed limit a military aid to israel. of something many, not only here in washington have been asking it for months now. on tuesday, president biden reiterated what he called was an iron clad commitment not only to the safety of jewish people, but also to the state of israel, and he added even if we disagree. but during that speech at the us capital tomorrow

call, cuz remember and stay, president biden did not mention this decision to withhold the bombs that we're hearing now. but this was only a matter of time. the question is rather why it took so long for the united states effectively use it's leverage and not just voice criticism. width is rarely countered pods behind a close doors is rarely official says close to this weapon. so it holds to access to a you as a media it broadcast to here earlier this week, but the us officials refuse to confirm it either private here during briefings and now we're getting this information off of and us officials. so where does this then leave relations between the united states and as well? it does seem to suggest that there is quite a bit of tension going on behind the scenes. so that's right. and that the relations between both countries are really strained between both governments. a number of biden's democratic allies in congress have if a week's attempt to limit or to hold on shipments a to israel, also welcoming

a this decision that we're hearing and now but a present by and had it refused to do so until now. and the fact the washington finally did so shows how the frustration is growing among administration officials that there is rarely counterparts, not hearing you as warnings against a major operation in reference to this new decision is indeed the latest sign of the growing rift in between both governments and also more pressure that washington is now putting on the government, defend you minute and yet when israel thank you for that. let us dw correspondent benjamin up at his grove and washington more than a 1000000 displaced palestinians have been sheltering. and rafa, but as well as renewed attacks and evacuation orders mean many are on the move again, the u. n. has repeated this morning. thank you man. a terry and supplies are running low. israel has taken complete control over access to gaza by seizing the roof of border crossing with egypt. make shift shelters in a sea of rubble and debris. it is fun, eunice is

a ruin yet thousands of palestinians have begun to return the loan of the israel ordered them to evacuate. parts of the southern most the city of ruffled is rarely forces. have seized control of the roof of crossing on the border with egypt. the attack came just hours of to hum us says that accepted a ceasefire proposal. one that israel says was unacceptable. and i thought the homeless proposal was intended to prevent the entry of our forces into russell. it did not happen as the war cabinet unanimously determined to how much proposal was very far from israel. it's necessary requirements. the attack was not the full scale ground defensive that many have fitted. but in seizing the check point is rarely forces have halted all humanitarian aid, passing through the crossing ceasefire. negotiations are ongoing,

but they stand on a nice edge we of that to the size, the moment for the above a scene in that these valley people and for the sites of the entire region. and the agreement between the governments of israel and the sheep of moss is essential to stop the unbearable suffering of bella stevens in regards to the end of the officers. and that fabulous, almost half of causes population fled to their homes, to shelter in rough or, and now they must fully, again. but with so much of the territory and ruins many a losing hope. was one the same as me, the higher i'm tired of life because there is no life in gaza. gaza has no future. that zillow, when are our children going to learn? if the schools are closed? because it has no health facilities and no hospitalization. and what kind of life is this old eyes a now, on the negotiations in cairo,

as mediators attempt to salvage what ever remains of a possible se, smile. i'd like to welcome our next and gas to major general. i'm also glad executive director of the institute for policy and strategy and former director of policy and political military affairs at the is rarely ministry of defense. thank you so much for joining us. the is really military says it's authoration in rafa is very targeted and very limited in its scope based on your experience, what you think that tells us about what we can expect to see in rafa was the good is the question about the the main issue at stake all the media type performance is the unique positive is excellent name the, the cost of the long corporation deal with the cool we did the they, we manage the subsidy we have and this is we have assistance at all

because the jewels eh, this made it really speaking to the, to do with needs the g, because o or this is based on the empower and we still, we need is to be go to the united states. the way the nature of the aging agency is very important. we do have a story received, it was a, we must have all the kids we need to because it was easy for me and to be able to establish what does better preserve the digital the so the way the uh and uh you, we did, you, we do have jo, the, the can be in the future will of course of the united states do the cheap for this fall. so they just bought those there. but they do, is this useful that you know, as you, uh it is because the social media usually have stage based on the

exterior when it is what you're on the jump in there. yeah, i'm from you said about the united states. if i may excuse me for interrupting, but as you may have heard in our program, we now have a u. s. official saying that the united states last week, a pause the shipment of thousands of bombs to israel over us concerns about a full scale assault of rafa. and because we want to talk about strategy here, i'm curious whether you are surprised to hear this coming from israel is the strongest ally. the places the middle age. i am i my, you know, my service is there is there a defense is uh who is this a v rankel major job or member? oh do you. ready is, do you have full priority so slim priority to establish

po, 4 digit corporation and friendship is this that there is not and like i said that i for the reasons, there was somebody this is strategic excess base. so the stage they used to be a little less and there is no who, because they go in to be the of for the low, big corporation. this with stabilize the. this is also to be, we need to be good because the extra weight is the ration. the economic wrote us, but did you, but it is always the causes can do and, but they won't do it because you know, so if you would be allowed to. ready and the 2 guys that i to take responsibility i love to, but this has to be do it. now what we need to do,

we need to cut off also is also what you can help us understand. here i'm, i'm curious if you can put into perspective for us with your experience, you know, how serious of a move by the us. this is the pausing of the shipment of these bombs is it, is israel going to view this as a slap on the wrist? or is it actually indeed a quite serious risk and what has been a very t partnership? the is look a little closer this we might lose the digital doing the sole source of if you want to me file for us and the you need the, you're the way to resolve it says the digit, carolinas, united states, the image. and, oh jo, when you. ready i mean, so as typically the newsletter we are lucky that we do have by the president,

by the use of best friends we, we will ever present it easily, the flu. so we need to recall the busy and the love i've seen so much and the cause of the about us. so we need to be concerned that's going well to ship. it's coming. go look and do you think that in yahoo, what do you make of the netanyahu government's approach the war and gaza and the way that he is handling relations with president fight and who you say is a great friend of his ro. the good news is the we have it is the result of the minds us the see sort of look real file for the idea of your goals as a piece where the phones is unbelievable. extra then it would be would be, it is fixed, is adult in order to vary. so meaning the, there is however,

once the dog here is the 2nd, you know, oh, so did you follow this policy? is the subsidy we dispose of j b? who is this closer, forgot after we finish was how much a as we did, we do have the option for the scary population. we united states, easy copies and so you get a to. ready for a, somebody's just the fiji x is i always been continuing for it, but i mean, we need this, but the color is between us. so the way to solve the why we are with imagine was because the friends 0 ready to do it. it has many economics to digit convenience, the messages we have expenses in the dissolved because in the weeks and there is, is the draws,

this is. so this whole read it to the new blue base. the g over to initial is we're taking over the disease. so we need to be slow, the website, so also gives you the so the policy, i don't see very much. yes. thank you very much for joining us on data view with your insights today, that is the general. i'm also glad we're very much appreciate your time. through the pressure has again attacked ukraine's energy and creator from the air ukrainian authorities. as a power generation at distribution facilities came under bombardment in 6 regions, including the capital q technicians, working to repair the damage warren. there could be nationwide power outages. russia also says it has captured 2 frontline ukrainian villages were to say with ukraine now and the story of one voice fight for survival. roman i left have
