8:09 pm
a war. there are many reasons among them, domestic troubles and israel doesn't want a war to disrupt its production of gas. the un peacekeeping force in lebanon has been in contact with the parties. it says, this ro, an lebanon, don't want war. and while there has been no claim of responsibility, security sources say palestinian groups, many of which are armed and confined to camps were behind the incident. some analysts say they couldn't have acted without the knowledge. and backing of lebanon's has below both mass and has beloved our iranian allies. and recently announced a joint operations room. when we looked at thomas's activity in lebanon, we see that and 2019 onwards, we saw a large number of hamas officials, representatives show up at lebanon. and also, to a certain extent, they may loot as a, as a base for their,

for their presence. the has, the law has not condemned the rocket fire, but the lebanese government has warned against using its territory for acts that could de stabilize the country. this may not just be about palestine in recent weeks as well, stepped up its war against iran in neighboring syria. iran, in a rare acknowledgement that 2 of its military advisors were killed. it promised revenge. other incidents have heightened tension among them, the alleged infiltration of an armed man from lebanon into israel. and while this round of facilities may be over, the exchange of fire appears to be more of a warning. the region could slide into broader conflict. seneca, there was it a tire, southern lebanon. daniel levy is the president of the us middle east project. he says the slightest rise in violence,
8:11 pm
likely escalate and already volatile situation. endless denial of people's freedoms and rights, that the freedoms and rights of the palestinian people under occupation, living under the oppressive is re regime, is inevitably going to lead to people taking up whatever forms of resistance. that's what happens across the board globally historically. so let's not forget that bigger context, the more immediate context, very significant escalation in palestinian casualty over the last 12 to 15 months. you now have the added layer of a very extreme radio government which is hell bent on provocations everywhere. and in fact, you did have the international community and the neighboring countries turn round and say, ok, ramadan coming up, it's, it's incredibly fee broiled, very tense. just don't get locked around. that doesn't mean that everything else
8:12 pm
doesn't matter. that doesn't mean the daily grind in dignity and humiliation and occupation don't matter, but the focus was, don't provoking alexa and me is ready regime didn't manage that. what i think we can say with the degree of certainty is that even when there may will not be a direct intention, the can the logic all the way israel treats palestinians the logical the ever increasing pushed towards extremism. is that even if the instruction is, let's try and keep this quiet guys. there is an inability to do that because the reaction to even just took to the absence of a propagation on our locks up, the reaction is going hard. go in heavy and, and now we are where we are today. if you're on the outside, you know how this looks from where you're sitting across the muslim world. if you will, the resistance movement,
8:13 pm
whether you're in garza or in south lebanon or anyway, you're going to say, i'm going to show solidarity with this. now the latest report of these 2 israeli casualties thing seemed to be calming and, and calm, of course, still means occupation and no freedoms for palestinians. but these things seem to be calming in south lebanon in gaza. but let's see if settle a militia violence after what we saw this afternoon, which with a score scene in hawaii and elsewhere, whether that ticks in now, whether these really stand by, let the settler malicious do their worst. and whether that leads to another escalation, ah, the us senate who top leaders have demanded the immediate release of a wall street journal reporter, arrested in russia last week. us citizen, even gush, of which has been char, officially charged with spine and is pleaded not guilty. it's even,

8:15 pm
right now in terms of next steps of the real priority for the white house is trying to get concealer access. and up to this point that has not been granted by the russian government, and for its part, the white house calls is absolutely in excusable they have been attempting to do so for many, many weeks now through the moscow embassy, the u. s. embassy in moscow and have been unsuccessful. so that is the top priority . according to the national security spokesperson, john kirby. there have been attempts. my report is to talk about whether or not there will be an attempt for a prisoner swap or any sort of negotiation with the russian government. but the white has a saying is really too early to discuss that. and even so they wouldn't discuss those types of negotiations publicly. the real priority right now is communication for updating the report as family, as well as his employer. and right now moscow simply is not allowing that. i
