Hey, I’m Anderson Cooper. Thank you very much for watching the podcast reporting from Gaza city with all the latest from Gaza as well as from Israel. Let’s get started.
We begin tonight with breaking news at this hour. New explosions rocking the city of Gaza. Just moments ago off in the distance, in what sounded like rolling thunder, the sound of explosions in, somewhere in Gaza, not in the actual area that we can see so it must be on the other side of the building where we are right now. Earlier also in the past hour, we saw
a number of rockets being fired from Gaza city toward Israel and we saw Israel’s Iron Dome1 air defense2 system actually take out some of those rockets in midair.
So it doesn’t seem like they actually reached across the border into Israel and actually land in Israel. We’ve seen explosions really over the last several hours, though not as active as we saw last night, but it was a very busy day here in Gaza, a deadly day as well. Take a look.
Day six of the battle between Hamas and Israeli defense forces. Day six of rockets crisscrossing the border despite efforts to broker3 a ceasefire, the specter of an Israeli ground invasion is still very real. This strike occurred Monday around 2:00 am when we were live on CNN.
Also two media centers, wow, that was a rather large explosion. That occurred, just look out here. I can’t actually see where the impact of that was. It’s actually set off a number of car alarms but that was probably the largest explosion that we’ve heard just in the past, really in the past hour. By the daylight, the results of that strike were clear. And this is the results of the explosion that we witnessed last night. It’s the police station or a police station in Gaza City. Local people say it was still being built so there weren’t a lot of police officers or anybody inside. Two people were injured, they say, it’s not clear who those people were. But the building is pretty well destroyed. It will take quite awhile to rebuild.
All ay and all night, IDF drones fly over Gaza looking for targets but it hasn’t stopped the rockets from being fired into Israel. That’s a rocket that’s just been fired up there. You can see the smoke trail in the sky. That’s about the fifth rocket we’ve seen being fired in the last 20 minutes or so. CNN’s Fred Pleitgen on the Israeli side of the border experiences the terror that’s the reality for those living in the rockets range.
We have an alarm going off right now. I’m going to have to seek cover. We’re going to go over here. Let’s take the camera off the tripod. All right. Seems like something impacted in the distance. Not sure how far away. There, over in the sky, you probably won’t be able to see it here, there’s an interceptor missile taking off right now. That is the Iron Dome interceptor right there. If you just saw the flash in the sky, that was a rocket coming out of Gaza that was just intercepted4 right now.
Back in Gaza, a targeted strike on the second story of a building that houses various media groups. Two people are killed, one of them an official from Islamic jihad rent an office in the building. Islamic jihad is a group that Israel and the U.S. consider a terrorist organization. Regular life here in Gaza City is pretty much ground to a half. Stores are closed and shuttered. Streets which would normally be filled with people are largely empty. Most people just try to stay indoors as much as they can, only venturing out when they absolutely need to in order to buy supplies for their families. Otherwise, it’s just too dangerous to go out.
