the, the, your watching, the, the, we can use live from those in the islamic stay. terry group said he'd carried out deadly bombings this week. and you, ron, more than i see people were killed into bloss side of memorial for a top general. who is himself, was killed in the us, try and strike for use. the good also coming up with these rel, announces a new phase in the war in gaza and not it's forces will take a more targeted approach is rival. so it says palestinians will be in charge when the fighting is always on the box that they will be no role for him on the

on jared raid, welcome to the program. the so called is lot mix died say is eat carried out and attack that killed mold in icey, people in iran, the tower group said it's name is way behind to bomb block. sad us. there are many in the se in city of come on, memorizing the days of a top or rainy and combined. revolutionary got a general cost in solar money was assassinated by a us drawn in 2020 the attack and during wednesdays. memorial march, the full anniversary off. he's killing on police to welcome to assign, but now he's a professor at the international studies at indiana university with a special focus on iran. welcome to your the is lennox dice? tara group has claimed wednesday's bombings. how credible do you think this is what appears to be credible? it appears to be to fit the patterns of their previous attacks in a wrong that happened in 2022 in 2017 before that as well. um,

so it has all the hallmarks of the secretary and attacked good prices has carried out before and the fact that they chose the anniversary, the 4th and 4th year anniversary of cost them solely moneys. assassination, really, i think, underlines they're kind of a similar pattern of attacks that they've carried out around the same commemorative moments in iran as well. okay, so you're saying this attack face patton's, the previous i s attacks. how strong is i as in the ron, and why is the group active been or it's a very good question. um, if it is an affiliate that has previously carried out these attacks in your ron, the group called for us on which is based out of afghanistan or operates out of afghanistan mostly. and then it's very, a shadowy group that's the running 6. ready the forces i've had difficulties west

to have some success containing them here and there. but it's a very question as to why iran continues to be so wonderful to this. a very small terraced organization that it knows it has designs around especially these moments . and it especially big the question as to how and why so much. ready the attention is focused on the dissidents inside it. wrong are people who are political issues from within iranian society when there are clear national security threats lurking about that the government time and again fails to prevent giving things difficulties that use that your ron has in containing i s a. iran is saying that it's going to that the attack is, will face the hoss reaction the, the supreme leader said these, what kind of reaction do you expect even the difficulties you just outlined? it is difficult to know in the past the running revolutionary guards have launched

operations where they have killed, right? these they've claimed to have killed leaders of ice. this k. ready as a hor, us on group in as honda sign, or they have taken action against other chapters of isis operating out of iraq and syria. but it's the scale of those. a punishment is a, has varied from attack to attack and usually time happens on a timeline that it's not immediately after the attacks have taken place. so given that so much there is going on in the region right now where iran has its work cut out when it comes to groups that it supports against israel, for instance, in, in lab and on and in syria and elsewhere. it, it really is unclear when you're on good a project power to really push back and attack the act if it is isis k in enough,

where most guidance of slate is roused. defense minutes to also say is that after the war palestinians will be in will be in charge of gaza about that. they will be no role for homeless. the us to the secretary of state antony blinking, just beginning a week long diplomatic to of the region. and we can talk more about that with dw correspondent benjamin all virus group. i in washington, benjamin. hi to what tell us what does add to me blink and hope to achieve with these treat? it's a high stake trip that antony blinking is doing is for us to the middle east since the october 7th attack. you will visit a many of the u. s. s. allies in the region. he will be in turkey, greece, jordan, katara, united arab emirates. so your radio, of course is rowe and the westbank and also egypt. but was interesting. he and also it considering where you were just talking about that he will not be in lab and on . and it's theory. exactly where is riley officials are saying that the window of

opportunity is closing to talk to them right now. and they're all fears. of course that, that they use us as a nation off the high, a bigger senior figure off come us and levin and will also abroad, and the conflicts failed many issues on the agenda. that's what the spokes person of the state department also said earlier today, one of them will be how can we get more humanitarian a to, to gaza? closer will talk about the situation of the hostages and the big question. also what will happen on the day after so we can expect that it to be a part of the talks with several of the official said he's meeting is the same tom here in washington. we have the pressure that is increasing also and it by is several members of congress also by the public to attach real red lines as the you, as a saying that there are some discrepancies between the united states and israel. right now, benjamin he talked about the day off. he's rouse, defense minister has said that after the war,

palestinians will be in charge of gaza, the how much will not be the u. s. as they've got to, we're going to hear anything from antony blinking about causes future to the stress that gaza is policy and will remain policy new with had several signals and several statements from is riley ministers. only recently the state department released the statement criticizing a what c a is riley ministers is sat also calling for a police to needs to be expelled from gaza. this statement of the state department of red that it was inflammatory and irresponsible statements. so it will definitely be something that we'll talk about that he will talk about with is rarely officials, but also it with a policing insufficient that he will meet in the west back. yeah. speaking of that, you just said that the blinking will also go to the west bank to talk to the palestinian authority. once he's message they going to be committed much

more that boss, the president of the, of the policy. and you know, 30 in the west bank in november he, they spoke about at tax and advice settlers in the west bank and also their commitment it via the us that will definitely have tough talk. that's what is the spokesperson of the state departments that many of those talks will not be easy. there's increa increasing criticism on the u. s. not only that, the biden administration is bypassing congress to keep sending weapons to israel also is a veto that the us use in the united nations security council twice to veto resolutions on c spires in gaza. so there will be a lot of talks and that will be held now in this the 4th trip. hi state. of course, a trip for anthony blinking in the region where it will meet as several count of ponds to talk about how to get h to gauze and also to prevent something that's many of fearing that this might broaden the conflict to the country. so either act as individual washington
