🌍 Middle East Conflict and Gaza's Philadelphia Corridor
CNN 10's segment discusses the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, focusing on the disputed Philadelphia Corridor in southern Gaza. This strip of land, controlled by the Israeli Defense Forces, is a critical point in ceasefire negotiations. The 11th month-long war began following attacks by Hamas in October of the previous year. Negotiations are nearly complete, with 90% of the deal agreed upon, but disputes over control of areas and the exchange of prisoners and hostages remain. Once a deal is reached, hundreds of aid trucks are expected to enter Gaza daily, providing fuel, equipment for rubble clearance, and supplies for displaced people. CNN's Matthew Chance reported from Gaza under the escort of the Israeli Defense Forces, highlighting the destruction in the area and the military's perspective on the necessity of their actions due to Hamas' tactics.

She started by collecting and distributing basic necessities like clothes, shoes, and diapers, and has since expanded her efforts to include cultural and historical connections. The segment emphasizes the importance of keeping these children connected to their roots while also meeting their immediate needs.

hello everyone happy Monday I'm KY wire
welcome to CNN 10 bringing you some of
the top stories of the day in 10 minutes
I hope you had an outstanding weekend
we've got lots to get to so let's get
started first in the Middle East where
CNN got a rare and limited look at a
disputed strip of land that links Gaza
and Egypt the pH Philadelphia Corridor
Israeli Defense Forces currently control
the 14 km strip of land in southern Gaza
along the border with Egypt and it's
been a major sticking point in ceasefire
talks negotiators have been working to
reach a deal to end the 11th monthlong
Israel Hamas War which started following
the October 7th attacks in Israel by
Hamas last year officials say
negotiations are about 90% complete but
who ends up controlling what areas and
the exchange of Palestinian prisoners of
Israeli hostages are disputes that are
holding up an agreement and it's not
clear when in-person negotiations will
resume between both parties aid for Gaza
would be a big part of that deal once it
is reached hundreds of Aid trucks a day
would be allowed into The Enclave
including fuel equipment to clear rubble
and supplies for displaced gin who would
all be part of the first phase of the
agreement CNN's chief Global Affairs
correspondent Matthew chance was on the
ground there while CNN reported from
Gaza under Israeli Defense Forces escort
at all times CNN retained full editorial
control over this
report well we're being taken by the
Israeli military into the Gaza Strip and
they've loaded us all as you can see
into this uh metal sided truck we're
going into the South bit of the Gaza
Strip which the Israeli military say
they have Under full operational control
but it's not entirely secure they've
brought us to this place called the
Philadelphia Corridor it's emerged as a
sticking point in the negotiations to
get a ceasefire and to get the hostages
released as you can see it's right up
against the Egyptian border and it's
important because the Israelis say this
is an area which has been used over the
years as a way of smuggling weapons into
the Gaza strip some of the smuggling has
taken place Overland through presumably
holes in the fence and through other
border crossings but a lot of it has
been taking place right under our
feet okay well this is one of those
tunnels it's right on the border with
Egypt you can see it is absolutely huge
wide enough to drive a car right right
the way through it the Israeli military
say that this tunnel because it's so
close to the Egyptian Frontier here has
been used by Hamas and other militants
to store weapons in and to fire Rockets
from you can see here the the back of
the wall it's completely collapsed down
apparently it was closed for some time
now we're driving now through the
neighborhood of Tel suan every one of
the buildings here has been totally
destroyed you this was obviously a
residential area with many people living
in it and the Israeli military say those
people have moved for the most part to
Safe zones humanitarian areas not far
from here but but look what they've Left
Behind look what's happened to Gaza
thank
you rear Admiral Daniel hagari is the
chief spokesperson for the Israeli
military how can you justify causing so
much you know damage Devastation
destruction in in in pursuit of your
objectives the only reason is because
Hamas has built his military
capabilities in that way that there is
no other possibility there is there is a
town underneath Rafa if you don't
demolish it then Hamas will go back and
have a stronghold the military
stronghold he is using the population
embedding in the population he's
creating this destruction and also the
deaths of the
population well this has been a very
tightly controlled bit of access into
Gaza with the the Israeli military
there's such a lot we haven't been able
to see but it's incredible they've
showed us what they have it's definitely
a a narrow view but it is also the only
view right now that we can get
firsthand Matthew chance CNN in the
southern Gaza
Strip 10c trivia what important metal is
the state of Arizona known for producing
gold silver copper or aluminum
and copper is your answer here Arizona
has been the nation's leading producer
of copper since the early
1900s sometimes it's the little things
that can make the biggest difference and
today's CNN hero is changing lives by
helping provide basic needs for her
community her experience as a foster
parent and adoptive mother inspired her
to fill in the gaps and provide
resources for Native American Youth and
their families while also keeping them
connected to their cultural and
historical
Roots I've always wanted to be a mom my
husband he's wanted to be a dad I put it
in prayer and God said I'm going to
bless you a different
way we became licensed foster parents
over 11 years
ago when I tell people I was abundantly
blessed within 6 months I became a mom
to four children that were all under the
age age of 2 years
old when the case manager said you have
48 hours and we need this car seat back
and I'm like what so that's where I kind
of knew where the Gap was and we needed
to make a change and needed to figure
out resources let people go through
it so what's the deal here so today you
can just come and get whatever you want
I started out just providing basic
resources clothes and shoes and diapers
I would tell my family like don't throw
away your stuff there's people that need
it let's wash it and clean it this is my
mad chaos is what I call it this is our
space to put all of our goodies usually
we get a request for like clothing or
diapers and if we have the stuff we'll
give it to you there's such a huge
need Arizona has over 10,000 children in
foster care reports show that about 10%
of that population is Native American
those numbers don't reflect the massive
amount that we have there's thousands of
native children that are in care and
could be connected to
culture and I thought we really should
be doing
more when I was like four years old and
I got moved out of my house most of my
connections that I might have had to my
past were kind of severed when I I was
adopted to my mom's house she made the
extra step to make sure that I was
connected back to my
roots it's a surreal experience it's
just like that feeling like deja vu at
like a poow there's a lot of kids that
are kind of in my similar situation I
don't know if they're like Foster
adopted but I know they're struggling to
find themselves it helps them that
inspires me to find out as much as I can
about who I am as a person what I can do
for my community
[Music]
[Applause]
