b is the lack of medicine and a lot of suffering and, and, and the fact that there are thousands of policy news, no trap waiting to receive their medical treatment is why the, the, there is a rise of the dust or between the policy news across the gods and his early forces have a rest of the preacher of a lock, so mosque after he paid tribute to his mail honey during friday. prayers. and the footage shows is really soldiers taking shape. i could almost aubrey from his home in occupied east jerusalem. israel argues this, every sermon constitutes incitement. of far right is really a minister of national security. it's m r. vandevere posted on x above a photo of what appears to be shared. a saw rear with his face blurred. he wrote the sabri huge eyes, the is melania, and a few hours later he was taken from his home for questioning by the israeli police

. and now he's being interrogated on the flags that he so loves. my policy towards instigators is clear 0 tolerance and i welcome its implementation and israel is bracing for a retaliatory strike from iran for as bull off on the salute. it has more on that's from jordan's capital, because israel has found l g 0 from reporting there is really official say they're prepared for a wide variety of scenarios in the wake of a potential retaliatory attack by the audience, who's bella, and perhaps other members of the access of resistance at this time, they're saying that there's been no changes in the guidelines of homefront command, but that they are prepared for any sort of situation. earlier on friday, these really are me. i had tested some sort of precision missile by these really navy, they say that this with the tests conducted as a type of interceptor these really army. it has an air defense system that is 3

fold and is usually iron climbed, but has been overwhelmed in the last 10 months by the war on guns and also from rockets that have been fired from southern lebanon by his butler. no benjamin netanyahu had previously spoken with you as president joe bided on thursday. and reports of the thing is really media had said that he was looking to coordinate some sort of international coalition of allies within the region in order to help combat some sort of large scale attack that would be directed at israel. but in the space of all of this, these really are saying that at this time there has been no change in any sort of security measures, but that they are prepared for a wide variety of scenarios as their bracing for what's next time to send food. i just eat off on a and a reminder hyundai is reporting from jordan because israel's government has banned ultra 0 from broadcasting there. now the us says it will be adjusting it's troops in the mid east to support, as well as kind of gone spokesperson says the move may include deploying additional

here's how she responded. no, i've respectfully pushed back on that. what we are doing to bolster our capabilities is in the defensive israel and, and by nature is defensive. so no, i wouldn't say that it escalates tension. in fact, some of the decisions that the secretary has made since october 7th. you might remember we move the forward, the us us forward curious, straight group to the eastern, met on october 8th. we moved the, i assume thereafter to the st. come a or these were all to project a message of deterrence. we certainly do not want to see this spread out to a wider regional conflict. despite intense of questioning by reporters here at the pentagon, the spokesperson would not give any details as to whether additional forces are being sent from the u. s. or elsewhere to the region. what those forces might consist of, uh, and whether or not the orders have already been given for this. what the pentagon terms of forced past year re alignment,

there will be most likely more details forthcoming. but at the moment, this is the latest word from here at the pentagon, rob reynolds l, g 0. at the pentagon. the russia has revealed the identities of some of its prisoners exchanged and a multi nation swap. redeemer across the golf is a hit man for russia security service. he was sentenced to life in prison for killing a chechen revel in berlin. back in 2019 pablo reps off, also known as pablo gonzalez. a journalist working for spanish media was arrested for espionage in eastern poland near the ukrainian border. rome on so elizabeth is the son of a russian politician. he was sentenced to 27 years of prison in the u. s. for hacking more than $500.00 businesses and stealing millions of credit card

and again later when i got to germany, was to go to the apple and take the 1st flight back to russia. they ask the agent, cisco took me understood my intention of what i wanted to do. his loss was to me, well, you can go back to russia, but like nevada name when you will be arrested. unlike nevada, only you will end up dead is. but this was not the most dreadful thing. he said. the scariest thing where his hens and warnings that if i did return to russia, would be excluded from an old political prisoner swaps in the future as zip file. so hes moore, from berlin, as we just heard from the ellia ya showing, that the political position, the politician who was released and of course, the moods was always thankful and very happy about this release. at this only less than the 24 hours that the they actually found out that they were going to be swapped and the going to be free in germany. and of course, the war worth of spanks to all of shows the german chancellor. but also the u. s

president joe biden, for making this all possible and sliding me a car i most are. who was sentenced to 25 years in prison in russia said he would never have believed that he would come out a life that were also several voice and attempts against him. but then there was this a mixed feeling from l. ya sion who was saying, telling to on the list that he was actually expelled without his consent. that was a legal. he said he wanted to go back. he said, i'm a russian politician and i want to fight for the freedom in russia. and if i get a chance, then i would go back and basically that's exactly what i like say enough valley has, is on the a precision data who died in prison in february. and he also, of course, said that that was also what the officers told him would happen to him. this is definitely not something that the german government likes to hear. it was already a very bitter sweet moments yesterday when these so press and those came back from

russia also 5 g. 2 comments, but they have to let go of convicted. an assessment wasn't jail in germany for a necessity. nation of a judge in the fields commander in 2019 and there was a lot of debate in germany about the release of this murderer convicted, murderous. so it was also very hesitant decisions by the german government. that's a long time for the, for them to agree. and basically it was joe biden who convinced them uh, 2, lots a caustic golf. so if i didn't cost you cause to go back c o 2, moscow, but then now in return, these political prisoners, of course, got their freedom as a most assets at the lives of 16 political prisoners has been saved. as still head here on al jazeera, the security forces fire
