occupation regime is attempting to export its crises to the region and drag it into a regional war. today's aggression on the capital, damascus and the targeting of iranian figures violates international laws and norms, because they are present in syria at the official request of the sovereign syrian government. it is within the rights of the syrian government to seek the assistance of of advisers to combat terrorism just like any other country in the world. "at least seven bodies were retrieved from under the rubble of the three-story residential building, which was within a street full of diplomatic missions. syrian civilians, political figures and popular media have all denounced this criminal aggression that demonstrates the savage nature of the zionist regime. they said that such terrorist acts would not intimidate the resistance front. this is very ugly, worse than you can imagine. i live here nearby, i heard huge explosion. in my

"i was less than 100 meters away when the explosion occurred. may god bless the souls of the marters. late last month, the israeli regime assassinated a senior iranian advisor, general sayid in a missile strike that targeted his house in the vicinity of sayida zainab shrine south of damascus. the israel regime is trying to intimidate the peoples of the region and is pushing through escalation through assassinations and terrorist attacks in the region, but people insist that the..." will

seeking to expand the gaza onslaught to the entire region. political commentator ali risk. says the israeli attack in syria shows the regime is seeking to further escalate the ongoing situation as israeli officials talk the third phase of his gaza on slaught. israel is appear intent on escalating the situation further. i think netanyahu in particular and i think it's important to note as well that uh when they talk about the third phase, the israelis, the americans and the israelis, but the israelis... in particular, i think that what the israel is have in mind for the third phase doesn't only include withdrawing or low intensity conflict in gaza, but at the same time that includes further escalation beyond that particular front to hit other areas and escalate in
11:36 pm
other areas, and i believe that there was an assassination just after this operation targeting some palestinian officials, if i'm not mistaken, in south lebanon, so they were appeas to... as i said, in israely plan escalate more broadly in the so-called third phase. now, iraq's islamic resistance says it has launched barrages of missiles at the us run anal assad base in western iraq. a us official says american personnel suffered minor injuries in the attack. the official said initial reports indicated that the base was hit by ballistic missile. iraqi media reports say, over 40 rockets were fired in the biggest anti-us operation by iraqis since october the 7th. over the past months, iraqi resistance forces have carried out attacks on american basis, both in iraq and neighboring syria on an almost daily basis. iraq's islamic resistance says the attacks are in

response to washington's support for the israeli regime amid the gaza geneside. earlier correspondent in. muslim salim joined us with more details about the iraqi islamic resistance, latest attack on american forces. let's take a listen. just about an hour ago, the iraq resistance has carried out a large missile attack on ain asad western baghdad. now the significance of this attack that out these 57 attacks that was let's say carried out by iraq resistance in the country. "this is the largest in number of rockets, initial number said that there is number of casualty, not let's say there is nothing specific yet, but the attack was was very large when it comes to the number of rockets, like i said it's the largest attack on the on the on american base in iraq ever since the
11:38 pm
operation has started, so let's say there is only one way to go, from now the the resistance are intensifying their attack as their promise." an israeli drone strike in southern lebanon has left four people dead. one of the victims was member of hezballah resistance movement. the strike targeted a car near the city uh of atari. the israel drone attack came amid strikes by fighters from lebanon's resistance movement hezbollah against israeli military positions in response to the ongoing israeli genocidal campaign in the besieged gazas. our levan. correspondent mariam saleh earlier joined us to give us her account of the situation in southern lebanon. let's see what she had to say. we do have an official statement from hisballah saying that ali hudruj has passed
11:39 pm
away and he was one of the members of hazballah. he actually just recently actually debated his thesis and his phd and so this is very uh someone who was well known in his town and hometown in berori which is where the attack took place uh and he was of course uh it was basically a shock for many people, he is someone who is more civilian than he is a military but he is still a member of hizbullah. of course this comes also a time when hazballah has continued with its resistance operations and we can see today that the operations all of the if not all uh most of them have been those of targeting soldiers uh we have it seems to... passed uh the phase when they're only targeting posts or devices here now we're talking about the fact that it seems to be now a confrontation when hazbulah targets soldiers directly and the israelies are targeting uh members of the resistance and even civilians in some cases um even if they were with the the members of
11:40 pm
hazballah in south lebanon uh but we we do know that hazbullah even uh in one instance for example used rockets directly at soldiers in near the barracks of hunin, but we also have inzarid and hizballah said in statements that they targeted soldiers, and so therefore there could there's definitely how's high number of losses and casualties among the israelis as well, the israeli shelling, of course it has not today, has not uh stopped at all, we have huge number of of shelling and examples we have from tanks for example, 160 days into the israely war on the gaza strip and the regime continues with his carpet bombing campaign across the besieged palestinian territory, the gaza health ministry says 165 palestinian. have been killed and 280 others wounded in the past 24 hours. the overall death toll from the

regime's war has risen to nearly 25,000. more than 62,00 others have been wounded and thousands are still under the rubble of their homes. israel keeps bombing residential buildings and refugee camps in areas it had said that would be safe. hospitals are overwhelmed across the besieg territory with people literally waiting on the floor for medical staff to intervene and save them. the deadly rates are being conducted while the coastal territory is under near total communications blackout imposed by tel aviv. 10 years of chaos and war in syria, the ruins left in syria, who benefits from the continuation of this war? what is the view of the west, particularly america towards war in syria and the support of many countries for
11:42 pm
creating chaos in syria? why syria, a different narrative? well, welcome back, an appalling video has been released showing the aftermath of a summary execution of 15 palestinian men in gaza by israeli soldiers. the horrific event took place on december 19th when israely soldiers rated the building in gaza city. according to iwitness accounts, the israely soldiers shot 15 palestinian men in the back after stripping and torturing them and forcing them to lay front down on the ground. the atrocity took place before the eyes of female members of the family who say... the incident has left a permanent score on their minds. the israeli army subsequently shelled
11:43 pm
the building that killed a three-year-old girl. israeli savagery in gaza has continued unabated for more than three months with full support of western governments, especially the united states. meanwhile, an outraged israely mother has accused the israeli army of deliberately gassing his son to death while he was being. held in a tunnel in gaza, the mother of ron sherman, one of the soldiers held captive by hamas, said a son was killed in a premeditated murder by the army. she slammed the cabinet of prime minister benjamin netanyahu as well as israeli military officials. her son's body alongside two other soldiers was recovered from a tunnel in gaza in december. the killing follows a pattern of israel military attacks on captives in gaza that are so far led to the death of dozens of them. people
11:44 pm
around the world have heard rallies to express solidarity with the palestinians in the beseged gazas, people in the uk, city of birmingham or no exception with valiers calling for immediate end to the us israely genocide in gaza, our correspondent said pureazar tells us more. what i'm seeing cover is a large crowd of... people in birmingham who have come together today, of course people have also traveled in from the capital london and other cities around the uk to be here today, the top of their demand is a preminence cease fire followed of course um by an end to the decades long military occupation of palestinians by the israeli regime, but they're also calling for is an end to um arming, the arming of the israeli military by the uk. um, but the fact remains that people here are outraged and angry and
11:45 pm
disappointed, angry and outrage and heartbroken at the sheer scale of the brutality and humanity of the ongoing unfolding genocide in the gaza strip and disappointed with the political leadership here, both the conservative party that is in power as well as the other major political party in the uk being labor, and a lot. them are telling us that come next general election, which will be happening in the next couple of months, they're not going to be voting for either of those major big political parties here, because... as in their words they don't represent them that they are doing the bidding of the israeli regime, that their vote is going to go to some independent candidate, perhaps in the next general election that will decide who will be taking the case to number 10 downing street. yemines from all walks of life have

11:47 pm
full of terrorism, murder, crime, corruption, support for criminals and the production of weapons for more killing. "there is nothing clearer than the crimes committed by israel and america in the gaza strip with no less than 240 martiers every day, not to mention the wounded and the missing. therefore, for america to classify any group in the world as terrorist is very silly and it cannot be believed by rational person. officials say the recent us move is in line with washington support for the israeli regime and its atrocities in gaza. they say the us is endangering the region to..." protect the israeli regime which clearly exemplifies terrorism. it's a great honor for us that the sponsor and the founder of terrorism, which has killed countless people around the world and use its atomic bombs in hiroshima and nakazaki and kill hundreds of thousands there is the one that classified us as terrorists, but we represent the most honorable position
11:48 pm
