pop up on you. yes, welcome to the program. a day after a pending hundreds of me, 1000 drones fired by a run. israel is waiting it's response and says the conflict is not over. prime minister benjamin netanyahu has met with his war cabinets. observers say ministers favor retaliating, but are divided over when and how to strike back around launched a more than 300 weapons, but nearly all were shot down by israel. the u. s. u. k. on jordan, as for leaders are urging restraint on all sides. us president joe biden has told nathan, yahoo washington will not participate in any made a treat retaliation to iran says it's assault was measured, unjustified in response to an earlier attack on it's consulate in damascus. flashes in the sky over jerusalem. and dian domain action. this voltage shows the

intersection of messiahs and drones launched by iran after the 1st ever direct to military attack on israel from a rainy and territory. concern is growing over a possible said, the escalation is really war cabinet man, but then he can made a defiant statement that did the little to allay those fears. yeah. yeah. style, i was it only this incident is not over. we will build a regional co edition and collect the prize from a run in a way and at the time that suits us and who even though you as president joe biden reaffirmed what he called americas. i am the cloud commitment to the security of israel, but the white house added by didn't had told nothing yahoo that the us would not participate in any is re the counter offensive against the run into run pro government. iranians took to the streets to celebrate the wave of strikes against israel. the lead revolution re, god, says the open i to so was a response to

a deadlier strike on the rainy and embassy compound in syria earlier this month, which killed several of its most senior commanders. iran submission to the united nations wrote on social media that its attack on israel can be deemed concluded. the uranium foreign minister made a statement after the attack that seemed to be named, giving assurance that a run was not looking to escalate the conflict of the we notified our brothers in the region where the united states has made a treat bases in the countries. but our goal is only to punish these rain the regime and that we are not seeking to target the american vacancies in the region. but as israel says, it's confrontation with a round is not over. that may do little to comm fee is of a full scale reaching over to new correspondence. i mean,

he says in jerusalem told me the war cabinet has not given any care indication of what happens next. a well, not much of anything that answers the questions that are on the minds of most as rarely as right now and the world at large for that matter. there has been no publicized decision about how exactly is real is going to respond to this or rainy and response. of course, this was a reprisal for the it was really attack the attack that they did not claim on the damascus consul. it in syria is where it run generals were killed. that's important context for this, but it is real, is trying to decide in a reprise and now and we didn't get any answers out of that cabinet meeting. what we did get was a statement from ben against that said, that is real, was going to retaliate, but it was going to do it on its own terms and on its own timeframe. and it was going to do it with an international coalition. now what's interesting here is that

a columnist of well respected columnist and is real said according to sources. if that meeting had been publicized, if it brought been broadcast on youtube, you would have had 4000000 is really is headed for vendor in airports and tell a beef to head out of the country. so that's gives you an idea of the, the kind of reprisals that were being debated there, but it seems for now cooler heads have prevailed. all right, but do we have any idea in what quote the retaliation look like then as well, it could be anything on a spectrum from a massive attack to knock out uh, it ran in a nuclear weapons or butting nuclear facilities. it could also be something small, it could be another assassination or an attack on reading proxy is of course the far right here. and there is a very far right in the government is real and then give you a been to view or excuse me, from the far right party is,

has been calling for israel to go berserk. ah, so it gives an idea of what he wants to see happen. but of course the war cabinet contains not only look, look crude, which is right wing. that's nothing. yeah. whose party but also centrist. uh, so it seems that there's still a debate there and we don't know which side of the spectrum this reprisal is going to fall on over. they said there will be something is this rather likely to heat cold for restraint from the us and others are the things that they already have a 24 hour period that was closely watched as close now. and it seems that after phone call between nets and yahoo and us president joe biden, instead of retaliating immediately what israel did was calling you un security conference meeting to gather the international community around. it seems that there's thinking international legitimacy for whatever they do next. so that is

a form of restraint. our president, as i've heard talk also said we are acting restrained. we know what the consequences are. but of course, when they say that they are going to retaliate, that puts a lot of people on high alert because the ron said if there is any retaliation for this retaliation, another words iran wanted it to be over. now, if there's any kind of retaliation, then they would strike back even harder with more missiles, more ballistic missiles, more drones. and maybe even damage is real in a way that it hadn't been able to do. and this last attack, tens times on in the don't new correspondent, i'm east of injuries and force thanks. leaders of the g 7 nations have condemned to runs the attack on israel and the video meeting caused by president biden. they also urged around to exercise restraint. the g 7 says it will work to prevent an uncontrollable regional escalation and will seek and immediate and blasting cease fire and gaza. while the un secretary general antonio latavia,

she has worn the international community against the sending deeper into conflict. speaking at an emergency session of the un security can, so he said the region cannot afford a wider war. it's time to step back from the building. it's vital to avoid any action that could lead to measure the military confrontations on multiple fronts. in the middle east, a civilian is that already bedding the brands and paying the highest price and we have a share the responsibility to actively engage all parties consent to prevent further, the escalation around has described the attack as measured and justified. it's on void to the united nation, said well around doesn't seek a regional escalation. it will defend itself. face, which such says, comes, stone says they stomachs. republicans, you don't have the no choice,

but to exist size is in your head on the right to self defense on the international law. alex of a tanka is director of the around program at the middle east institute in washington dc. little earlier, i asked them whether this attack was a strategic success for around yes, in a way i know yes, in the sense that they came out after the 1st of april, stripe, by israel under damascus. and said they would have to retaliate in time. meaning because they considered the, the embassy compound of damascus to be rainy and soil. they said they would have to strike israel on its soil. and that's basically what they have tried to do here. although as you heard in the reports that about 99 percent of all those missed 1000 rooms were intercepted. i do have to point out that

yes, in terms of the run doing this for the 1st time, they have started a new chapter in this in which you would israel. but i have to also, as an analyst, believe that the way you run carry this operation suggest to me that they didn't really want this to escalate any further. this is what they're saying. public people directions before and also showed that was the case. i mean, in any military operation, you don't give days of advice warning. you don't send us more slow moving drones that give you rather me plenty of time to prepare. so they wanted to make a point. they wanted to strike israel, but they want to make sure the damage was such that didn't necessarily necessitate and is ready retaliation and kind. any rand hold right now. clearly is that this is the end of this route and they want to move on. are you set it there, but the rainy and foreign minister has said the attack was aimed only at israel and not at the us. so what does that tell us as well?

it just tells us the united states and the pretty uh, you know, uh by positioning that way because he has to meet the age in a, in a conflict between an ally israel and an opponent called around. that doesn't really want to even talk to the united states directly, but nonetheless, both around in the united states. as, as, as bizarre as it sounds have one thing in common, not just side, wants to get into a regional conflict. and both sides recognize the simple fact that iran is real, costly will not be limited to you, right. and in israel and in the united states very well will be forced to inter conflict, which is again, we've heard it over the weekend by administration. clearly clean is not interested and it's doing everything they can to prevent that that with this attack, global attention has turned away from the war in gods. so how's his health is real? do you think? you know, you could,

you could say that that might turn out to be the case, not, not in the short term. we've heard his radio officials talking about what is the right did to them this we can as providing israel with what it is really leaders are calling strategic leverage and the building of a new international or regional college and it goes through right now. if you do that and if you're successful in doing that, then absolutely. this will be a win 44 as well in the long term. but it's not going to help them in the short term, and they're in their operations in gaza and the regional and international opposition they face and the way they've carried themselves so far. so there you have it. okay, but could around to tack on his route at reshape alliances or power at all in the region as i'm not into short term look, i think for example, let me give you one concrete example. if this uranium attack is for example, see by israel to re energize the moon, say in the gulf states,

countries like saudi arabia, to look at normalizing relations with israel to sort of go back to where did what before the guys in crisis then i think is way too premature to assume that our public opinion is still very much upset about what's going on in gaza. that doesn't mean that likes the reading approach to his role at all. in fact, we've seen our country is very silent in some cases. in the case of jordan, actively participating against the c rating operation. this is actually a separate point, but a very fundamental point. i do wonder if you're bringing leaders now to around need to take a moment and think about what it is they're seeking to do with israel. because their energy towards israel is an ideological mission. there on your right is not an arab country. house thing doesn't need to be in the range in cost and the out of world this money, right? to take the leadership on this. all these are tough questions. the raining leaders have to answer particular given that uranium public opinion is very much opposed to

what a ride is doing in the region and this position as well. all right, we don't have a whole lot of time, but briefly is your code. what do you expect to see happening next? as i think we've heard so far from these really is clearly as the united states is telling them. right now, you can call it a when you can call it a major spectacular military success. i'm calling today and move on. we'll come back to you around, but we need to time to figure it out. it's not something we will do in days a weeks. it's a major project. and for that reason i think the americans were prevailed. these varies to not do this on their own, really in a successful way, so they have to wait for that american preparedness to come to their aid and do whatever it is that needs to be done in the long term down the road. but it won't happen in the short term. thanks, alex alex with tank up from the middle east institute in washington dc. all right, your up, today's coming up next. why be keeping is no longer a retirement hobby. the number of young beekeepers is rising sharply as after
