From New York, this is Democracy Now.

The resumption of hostilities in Gaza is catastrophic.

We urge all parties and states with influence over them to redouble efforts

immediately to ensure a ceasefire on humanitarian and human rights grounds.

Recent comments by Israeli political and military leaders indicating that they are planning to expand and intensify the military offensive are very troubling.

At least 70 Palestinians have been killed as Israel resumes its bombardment of Gaza after a week-long truce expired.

We'll look at a stunning new report in the Israeli press about how Israel's loosened its rules

about killing civilians while developing what's been described as a mass assassination

factory.

It tries to explain why so many civilians are being killed in Gaza,

most of them women and children.

And part of the reason is, according to these sources sources is the increasing use of AI artificial intelligence

programs to accelerate the creation of targets at a faster rate than Israel is able to strike.

Then we speak to the mother of Hisham Ortani.

Palestinian student at Brown University shot in Burlington, Vermont

with his two best friends, two other Palestinian students.

And we talked to Human Rights Attorney and War Crimes Prosecutor Reed Brody about the death

of Henry Kissinger who escaped justice for decades.

All that and more coming up.
