a tremendous amount of pressure out of the system. possibilities have forced more than a 150000 people on both sides of the border to flee their homes. resolution lincoln says needs to also ensure their safe return. home. journalist bullied sled dean spoke to us from northern israel about the aftermath of the hezbollah attack. 215 rockets were fired from south the what the, the really didn't look in communities the military sites here. a from what we understand, there are no casualties, but lots of damage. what's called the as the you can see here on the screen. fire broke out to in many areas in be a little bit lower than the upper delete also and type areas. the area that haven't even heard sirens before since that silver age windows. so this started here. so what we're seeing here is a clear escalation. this is coming up to destination yesterday. apparently, a top commander uh was uh,

apparently he was actually killed in an air strike image who by himself in the lab and on the among good the along with some of the other top official. so that was apparently a very important meeting for his beloved senior leaders there and the all of them were killed. that's why we're seeing this escalation here. and we've been saying, escalation escalation for the past the, a few weeks now we can start school, think this a war. and although that's, we're still officially a police the a below the, the threshold, the for work of violence against children during war reached extreme levels. last year, according to the united nations and its annual children, an armed conflict to report the un blacklisted hum us as lama jihad, and the is rarely military for the killing and maiming of children. and for attacks on schools and hospitals. the war and sudan is also highlighted in the report which

based upon the information we are receiving, that we are on the precipice of something even worse. the i c. c is appealing for as much evidence as possible from witnesses and see done. as the violence continues. it is the country's children who are the worst effected there's a quick look now at some other stories making news around the world. firefighters are still trying to put out a blaze and an oil refinery in northern iraq. the fire started overnight and one of the storage facilities and later spread across the site because of the fire was not immediately clear so far. there are no reports of injuries. the russian warships have been participating in military exercises in the caribbean. they were seen sailing into the cuban port of havana on wednesday. u. s. military experts say the vessels may also stop in venezuela,

a gum. and with that they can execute such an attack and it's very hard for security or forward to use to prevent that, but also tamani towards the dangerous, such as those post by hooligans or cyber attacks. also part of security precautions, post stadium stuff, multiple layers of security and are considered to be safe places. but fans zones temporary sites will up to 12000000 people, a likely targets 22000 police officers under cover agents. drones and road locates public security plants and for months all german boulders had been subject to increased controls to identify and stop potential bad excess, 100 percent. secuity is never possible, but i think that um politicians as well as secuity of 4 was, can work pretty much really good to together as we've seen for the last couple of weeks and months. but now it will be put to the test as fence and play us gather,
