rafa to had their basic or different or 2000 of families who have been on the what i've been through at least, you know, average of 5 times space moving from different areas from north to south. and this is also a part of the nation, but also the area that what is next is that that's the question that answer the eyes here. see the discussion process want gave this month's a significant future operation in which post disaster solves will make you know, the minimum, many time you have response even impossible to, you know, meaningful what is your organization able to do for people in rasa at the moment.

can you tell us a little bit about your operations and the challenges that you're facing? thank you for this question is must we do? the process is supporting the health care system and gather from the following. despite all the stuff came to row be continued support the remain on the hospital that is left in gaza. that is capable of providing about software service. that is the gas in hospital we have a surgical team that has been working for months and living there as well, providing about the range of health care services. we also support community kitchen centers that provides thousands of off b as in daily basis. the thousands of families in south and go to serve and dropped off in the middle of the area. we support the bolts or a trucking efforts to help people have access to clean water and meet the quantity . and we support the 7 defense with basic equipment that helped them extract it in buddies. i've been under the rumble of their home, some of the houses for 4 weeks now, but trying to maximize the kind of response we're trying to reach as much people

who are to be possible. however, this remains and dropping the ocean. if the student is easy, because as long as there is a change of a finding, this child stays integrates or needs, that would be definitely a met. challenges are, are fast. first, there's no security guarantees for our movement. the, the 8, the, the, the 8 that has been significantly increase to enter gals over the past. we need to change it into our robust flow, 8 unimpeded lead. absolutely safely so that we've asked me to turn this taken care of in the hundreds of thousands of people who are in desperate need for it across the ghost strip. and us out and, and, and can you tell us where we stand now on the flow of humanitarian aid into gaza? the commercial loan crossing opened on wednesday morning, but the un says no 8 has yet entered through it. you know, the russell border remains closed. is that affecting your operations there as

we would expecting trucks? so that was that human 2nd aid as goes to the people and live in debts. and so excuse me. and also to the hospitals, individual area, and the roof on a rough crossing has, has been the main gateway for months to enter a team to tell you made and we encourage the increase of even $28.00 that has been locked into a gas. so if you wish to keep our portals with the gaza strip, which a can enter and eventually be delivered to the people need. i was a rough crossing is now a big question that isn't impacting bucks only to insure a but also a number of patients and used to exit costs of data bases to receive medical treatment that is not available to go as a their license the balance depending on how much will happen?

well, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with us from rafa that is, hey, sean mano with the international committee of the red cross. thank you. here in germany, police say a former mayor of berlin has been hurt following an attack at a library. officers say, francisco defy, sustains light injuries when an unknown assailant hit her with a bag containing a solid object. it's aspect has now been identified. it is the latest and the series of incidents involving politicians in germany. on tuesday dw news team capture. at the moment, a green party politician was allegedly assaulted in the eastern city of dresden, yvonne, most of the and her team were hanging posters when they were set upon by a man and a woman. the pair demanded that they delete photos of the man. let's dig into this with our political correspondent, matthew mor matthew,

give us the background to what has happened in that video we just saw as well. it was against this background of increasing political violence. here in germany that we talk to belen usually wants to guar and speak to politicians, especially from the green party. they've been targeted over recent months. we wanted speak to them about how they feel on the campaign trail that's concerns about safety and in the mean and amongst the filming opportunity and things got tents. we as they were hiring posters, we could hear a group nearby shouting, not the slogans are bonding gemini and charging support for fall right. political parties. and i have no way i, one of the men tore, died, one of the posters that they, that the green politician was hanging on moments later. then you saw the scene that we just, we just showed you there, which was a pair of people, bystanders. basically, a confronted the policy that the, the flips politician and our team and demanded that they, they turned off the cameras and threatened our camera on and told the, the politician and she was to know something, got what country you're on the air,

but really quite an unsavory scene unfolded there and the lady spot in and the green politicians face. and this all unfolded kind of on before the cameras, as we saw on the police did eventually arrive, the position told us that she was disappointed. oh, how long it took them but they did eventually get there and they said that they were investigating the case for legit intimidation on the use of unconstitutional symbols. so it's a snapshot really of the come the political climate human jammed at the moment. indeed, we should say, this is just the latest in a string of attacks on politicians recently in germany. what does this tell us about the political atmosphere here? this is feeling polarized. at the moment, i would say it's our tens of the moment we have the local elections taking place and where we, where they are and trace them. but you also, this is the european wide elections. and it seems that when you look at the numbers,

the number of either physical or mabel of tax on politicians is increasing and it seems that feels like every, every week. now we're talking about an attack on a politician or a campaign event that had to be cancelled because of intimidation. and it's interesting that you know, the greens are often, one of the policies are most targeted. the, the, the far effy to this targeted someplace by and on to fosters left when groups and the greens though, um, it seems that they're kind of targeted across the spectrum at the moment they are um they're subject to the comfort rate is billings and the piece if you like because of the either from sending weapons to ukraine or because people think they're trying to change german way of life, they're transitioning far too quickly into it to, to and you will energy for example. but this whole thing really just speaks to a claimant. of concern in germany, especially given germany's past on yesterday, the interior minister held a conference with officials across the country. talk about ways that they can protect democrats, democracy in protect politicians. among the things they're suggesting is increasing

punishments for people who attack politicians on increasing police presence. and when politicians right on on the streets competing for vote. thank you so much for that. that is indeed of these political correspondent, matthew moore. we can take a look now with some other world news headlines, voters in north macedonia are casting their ballots and a parliamentary election and presidential run off. it is likely to affect the country's past, were joining the european union. corruption and the economy are also top issues. recent polls indicate the center, right opposition is likely to return to power. the hong kong appeals court has grant and the government's requests to ban a popular protest song. business returns on earlier and fully glory to hong kong was often sung at mass anti government demonstrations in 2019 critics say the band further. and rhodes, freedom of expression. since beijing launched its cracked down with hong kong following the protests,
