11:00 am
on told to out his ear the vindication of terrorism and a per location head of the presidential elections in october. with fearless generalising, an in depth coverage of to 0 is when you close to the last of the story. the as the law claims responsibility for multiple attacks from lebanon and the occupied chip on palms, australia tutoring, 5 follows the 170 say them, this is out just a live from the hall. so coming up, the wave of his radio strikes, some of the seats, guys, this trip is the warrant. there's a 2nd day over 300 ton of cities,
11:01 am
a killed people in guns are risking their lives and gone out on the straits. rescuing bows, hit fines. ray, the file inside is around how mass spice is fights, fish baffles with these right is solved is at least $300.00 is right. is a dead including $26.00. so just the day off to the unprecedented military operation by how much the games do as well. there's been another escalation, this time on the 11, and it's ro, boda has belies claiming responsibility for molto strikes from 11 and into a occupied shrub. i funds these, right, they say that all tillery 5 followed the shovel asylums as a dispute, the territory that was all k 5 by as well, in 1967 until its withdrawal from southern lebanon in 2011, and claims that as part of its tower treat to
11:02 am
install a diety with the palestinian resistance and their struggle groups from the martha comment that had to have met me in the stomach resistors this morning, attacked 3 positions of the zionist occupation in the occupied cheap my farms area . a large number of artillery shells and guide the messiahs were fired at the rate or side because of the inside. and there was that's not on the side. the sites were hit directly. victory comes from a loss to my team and twice as they know how to joins us now, live from southern 11 and say that let's start off 1st of all by clarifying the situation. what exactly did has the law target that or well, hezbollah has joined the fights, the fighting between from us and as well. what happened in the early hours of the
11:03 am
morning? it launched rockets, as is really positions and the shut off farms area. this is an area controlled by the israelis and claimed by 11 on. so a new front has been opened, has been la, heating a call by its allies, have mass to join the fighting. but at the same time, has the laws, a choice of targets. and the nature of the attack means that it is trying to avoid a wider confrontation when they decide to target them is ready to position and shovel in many ways. what is trying to say is that this is a legitimate fights since this is area the you know, disputed over. but at the same time, sending a message to the israelis, a warning that we can join and we are ready to join the fight because hezbollah equation has been known for some time. now they've made it clear time and time again. that front have now been unified strategy between the arms groups,
11:04 am
hezbollah, how mazda stomach, she had all groups, a ally to e run. they are coordinating their strategy and fronts can open at the same time to put pressure on as well. so that is the message that has it child the areas, the sources of fire, but both sides really avoiding casualties, which really shows you how both sides are trying to avoid a marked escalation. because at the end of the day, there has been pensions along this border in recent months, but they both know an all out war is not to to either sides benefits. what is the bottom line zayna? does it look like? this is going to lead to a why the escalation as we so um, well, more than a decade ago as well, you cannot rule that out in 2006. the war between hezbollah and israel lasted for
11:05 am
over a month. there were a casualties, destruction since then has the law, has the b stop it's arsenal? it has sophisticated weapons. it has long range position guided missiles that can hit, and the heart of is really city is it could have also hipped supplements along the border with northern israel. but it's avoid that that it's taking this if you like, step by step approach telling, this really is the more pressure you put on how much the more pressure we will put on you. at the end of the day, hezbollah has political opponents. it has enemies in this country. they've been accused of implementing a round agenda and not working in the interest of lebanon, but in the interest of, of the iranians and hezbollah doesn't hide the fact that it is supported by yvonne and that is received funds from the, from the residents. so as well as also in the very difficult position, because if it does launch a war with israel and then the country would be tracked into conflict and lovely,
11:06 am
not really is suffering from multiple crises, economic collapse, there's a political paralysis. no president, no function in government. so this just adds to the burdens of the lebanese people . so it's clear that hezbollah is treading carefully with the message that it's giving the is rate, is that we are ready for all out conflict. when we do that, thanks. so much then ahold of as follows while it's been by fall the deadliest day of these ready palestinian conflict in 50 years. it's more than 24 hours since how mass launched its military operation on this rel, by land and sea. these a life pictures, the sun rises on the besieged tower tree. palestinians taking stone wants to be lost. it is really as strikes overnight. this was a scene just few. how's it going? this route launched another. a striking garza with a prime minister,
11:07 am
ben. you mean nothing now is wanting people and gauze as long days from land air and sea blockade. so leave the tower tree. he's vowing to ton how mass sites into rubble in the wall. he says he's determined to win. so far more than 256 palestinians have been killed by his right, the strikes side as well. gun bathrooms have been continuing 4 hours and several cities between time on his finances and is ready forces. the desk told that stands at 300 as well says 26 of its soldiers has been killed in the southern city of that all israel said secured control of a police station that was seized by palestinians. find his. it's ready for demolished parts of the building with a bold as we have a team of correspondents standing by israel, the occupied palestinian territory and the us capsule that abraham is in the occupied westbank. reynolds is in southern israel,
11:08 am
a few kilometers from that boat of wisconsin. so the hierarchy is in west jerusalem . but 1st let's go to your messiah cheese life for us inside garza. so 1st of all brings up to speed with what is on the fly today by those these really strikes as well. the is really, rates has been targeted and limited to residential homes. since the beginning hours of this morning, don't hours, a residential homes and residential buildings has been completely destroyed and leveled to the ground. we have the know the latest number by the ministry of health, as you mentioned, 313 people killed until now and almost 2000 injured sammy. we're speaking about to 24 hours. says the launching of these really operation of the iron swords to where it's because the strip which is in response to the excess load
11:09 am
operation wants to earlier by how much now uh the the, the amounts of numbers, the great numbers of casualties in the palestinian side in the palestinian gods and territory are all out of ease. really bombardments is really air strikes in just a matter of 24 hours medical teams. a civil defense teens are saying that it's very difficult for them to get to, to all the parts and to all the areas that are being targeted. and until now we still hear bombardments to other homes and neighborhoods and it's, and densely populated areas in because the strip i've mentioned before that when we're talking about the goal, is this trip we're talking about 3 point $2000000.00 people living in 365 kilometer with buildings adjustment to one another,
11:10 am
which means that every bombardment close is not just a huge destruction in the area that is being targeted, but also in the areas that surround that targeted area. and of course as uh, there are always casualties. uh, now the significance about to also the bombardments or is really bombardments. is that many of the residential homes that where bombarded where actually targeted while the residents were inside then. so they were not given a prior. notice some of the residential buildings and towers. yes they were, they were giving a warning mess sile uh to warn them to zack you wait. just 5 minutes before they were totally destroyed. but uh, many of the casualties that house full of where because these residents were still in their homes and they were bombarded while they're in their homes.
11:11 am
so you're not, is there, as prime minister has been telling people in gaza to leave. where can they go in and tell retrieve is on the siege under occupation? well that's really the irony, sammy about uh, uh, prime minister benjamin netanyahu telling the residents have gone to, to leave. why that is read. why these are, it has been imposing a land air and sea located on because the strip for the past 17 years, instead of going on, people a gaza, or basically a cripple. and in this very limited the area of lag, 365 kilometers. they're not allowed to leave the territory, otherwise they would have the edit crossing which is under full is really control. it gives them access into the occupied westbank while the data crossing,
11:12 am
which is under a egyptian and uh it just in for a control gives them access into egypt. but also over the crossing is open during the width days. there are a long measures taken long turns to be waited for you to just turn your name as a resident it to be able to travel through that crossing. uh, not everyone can actually access and have the privilege of uh, leaving the territory whether of and by their vehicles uh, through land or even uh, booking a flight. since there isn't even an airport here in the gaza strip to leave the territory. all right, we'll leave with that. thanks so much on the side. let's talk to rob rails. he's joining us near the gaza israel board around that. start with the reports that were
11:13 am
saying there is ongoing fighting between how my sciences industry forces in solid southern is route. what's the state of play with that? that's right. saw me. uh, 1st of all, i wanna just let you know where we are. we're at a, uh, a cross roads near the town of, uh, kim, these really townships that came there. you can see there is a uh, a roadblock up a head man by the soldiers and police and uh, we were told by witnesses that there are 2 suspected palestinian fighters there who have been taken captive or arrested and may be taken away sometime in the next few minutes and if we see any activity there we'll, we'll cut away to it. but a fighting does continue in several communities in southern. he is real. that were stormed and occupied by i'm off fighters from gaza on saturday. uh,
11:14 am
there are explosions that you can hear and feel of the vibrations from coming from this direction towards gaza. at a regular basis here probably is rarely artillery possibly is really air strikes and it's really army spokesman said specifically cited a battle for the town of far as the saying that there's really troops were fighting there to free hostages. taken by some of the spokesman said that the armies plan is to evacuate all civilian residents of the area of southern israel, near the gaza border within 24 hours or less than 24 hours as of now. now you mentioned earlier, saturday, the 26th is really the soldiers, including some high ranking officers, had been confirmed and named as having died yesterday in the fighting. in addition
11:15 am
to that, we now know that 30 police officers have been killed in the worst outbreak of fighting in, in this area in many years. the number of palestinian fighters who have lost their lives is on no, they is really army is reportedly using drones and search dogs to look in areas where civilians may either be lying wounded or may have found a hiding place to, to keep themselves away from the palestinian fighters and is really ret, resident of that town that i mentioned. no money to go far as a p set out messages for help. seeing that the palestinian fighters are shooting from the roof tops, walking the sidewalks of the town. and some of them are in the homes of residents holding hostages. he said that about half of the town had been cut off from all communications, electricity shut off. no food or water for uh since since saturday. really. uh
11:16 am
that's of course the situation that will be familiar to many people in gaza. many commentators all over israel all over these really media. i can't help. but notice how they are criticizing the seemingly inexplicable intelligence and prepared this failure that allowed some us to take israel israel completely by surprise in what are the worth? a blow as to the is rarely state since its founding in 1948 sobbing. all right, thanks so much rob browns than the the israel gallons a border. let's bring you the latest pictures coming in from garza as we can see, the still dealing with the off them off of as riley strikes which have continues into today. are trying to clear up the cottage that's to hundreds of
11:17 am
palestinians. and this coming, of course, on top of decades of siege and occupation when speaking area is right, the army spokesman daniel hug already said demetrius killed hundreds of palestinian government and is evacuating is ready. the supplements on the funding mission of it . we all resent to i think settlements. i mention in the coming days to evacuate. all the civilians from the surrounding areas near causal. this evacuation needs to be secure. we need to scan the area, making sure there are no palestinian government. we will impact right. the civilians on buses. we will finish this mission today. they're all tens of thousands of military personnel in the surrounding areas near garza, we will continue to arrive to every settlement until we can overcome and who are inside is riley territory. now over the cool, most out of hierarchy is in west jerusalem for us. so let's start, 1st of all with the statements coming inside of from is right, the officials,
11:18 am
what are they saying about the ongoing fighting as well? that's definitely been saying, as you said, that they're going to be stall saying is actuation times. every thing that should have been happened probably is taking time because this of course, as we've mentioned, has come a such a surprise that people in those southern towns and still some how to fend for themselves in many ways they're still, it seems hundreds of, of those is res, that's all still missing. that was a huge policy that has, it seems also a few thousands of youngsters that were attending as part of the holidays. many of those was said to have been a kid not some taken across the board to buy those palestinian finances. and as we're saying that it's still continuing of the fighting against the sizes. but what they did say in his statement was that they have managed to evacuate most of those areas. they've also added that they killed move in full 100. how must palestinian
11:19 am
finances and that they've managed also to capture those things. we don't have much more information on that yet. information has been trickling through slowly and that's probably because they was so shocked by what happened. it was a, this whole thing of quotes was a massive failure in terms of intelligence and terms of policies, politics. and it took everyone by surprise, these riley public, those moving on those borders as well as the government and selves and in a cabinet meeting, but was interrupted twice yesterday where those politicians were convening. instead of even including prime minister benjamin netanyahu know how to seek shelter while they were, the tennessee was being targeted by how much rockets they had to delay that meeting . but one thing that he made very clear, they said the goal was to crush her mouth and as long as she had military
11:20 am
facilities and that they said what the rep precautions of this will be remembered to so many years. this whole, those things was a huge embarrassment to a government, but since it was sworn in earlier this year has already been controversial. it's the most right wing is riley governments. there's been a pro, tests by thousands of his res, against for phone. so changes they wanted to make to the district, which they've been pushing through to give them both. how many of those ministers that's are in the governments all already ultra orthodox hod line is also a set plug is really sensitive backgrounds that have been pushing towards expansion of lines and occupied territories. so of course is reset based attack even though it came as a surprise in house to how quick it happened. it. and you know that these res, i'm making it clear that they have to act. so they have to act faust and they seem
11:21 am
to be very much united. one last thing i want to add is that prime minister benjamin netanyahu has had a discussion with the opposition lead to a la pete, as well as the one of the poxy lead a position poxy lead us to discuss a, an emergency unit. see government. they said, we need to put politics aside and unites when it comes to the how they will tackle this a shocking situation full, okay. they have the ministry great abilities, right? hold on, old areas of this and, and that's the way that moving forward, just briefly cetera. so it talk to us about, if anything is being said about the possibility of is right the ground offensive into gaza as a statement was held. yes, as a signal was made yesterday why it seems that there was a, it wasn't ruled out, let's say it's not been confirmed whether that would be the situation. but that
11:22 am
definitely looking at all possibilities, of course, the tricky thing is, is that many of the as riley soldiers, as well as that are and civilians were taken across the border into gauze. are they still remain there? and that's going to be a very tricky, a rescue operation if you like, for these really. so definitely it's very clear that is rather taking this in a, in a different direction. it's the 1st time in, in decades that they've called all of the reservists. and those reserves have and from what we know today have assembled the even bringing some of them from a broad, the all station to vote in the 1000. so that just gives you an idea of how they are pulling all that results is of full. this will line thanks so much the height of the meanwhile in the occupied westbank funerals are being held for the 7 palestinians killed during consultations on site today. that abraham is live at one
11:23 am
of the funerals and they to a near west overall model. so 1st of all, take us through what must be a very difficult moment, right now i'm, it's not only funerals bad, but what's happening in gaza? yes, indeed, the motions are very high. we've just seen the body of ahmed i, but being brought to his grandmother's house, where he lives for a final farewell before he's going to be late in his fine love resting at the cemetery. here, he's young, he's a team. he's not the only teenager who has been killed by his really forces since the start of the major escalation on saturday morning. but he is, he was targeting and going to and is really confrontation points. basically you would find military took points in so many places in the occupied the west bank, but even people when they want to from one place to one,
11:24 am
although they failed. so as soon as the reset point, often making it more difficult for palestinians to thank you very much. the people here are carrying the flags, participating in the funerals, and the some of them were telling us, you know, what, even if we could do is just throw rocks towards, is where the soldiers hit. and there it is, the least we could do to be able to show that we are defending our holly slides. others are taking different measures when we use the report from the janine deputy g camp where there are fighters who carry arms and decide to fight, i guess is really for us as we often ask them, aren't you scared of the this proportion of power? you are talking about is very big and strong military. these really aren't the ones are with guests from them is. so what do you want us to give up?
11:25 am
so basically, the destination and the attacks that has taken place by surprise on saturday morning. why? how much has kind of reinforce to those palestinians that there could be a way for them to distort these really actions to show as well. that there's a, a limitation to how much it could eh, task for us to use. so it could be basically paying the prize for it's violations. one of those who killed a 19 year old, he has committed an attack here in the occupies westbank shooting attacks, which is where the soldiers, who used to say, and we've heard a video as seen a video of him saying everyone should go out to fight. so you can see the and then sense, that's the remarks that's came from guys a by the, how about leaders selling people to escalate situation are finding years here in the west bank. now how is that is going to be unfolding. we'll have to wait to see, well, that's precisely what i wanted to ask. you knew that given everything you just said,
11:26 am
what is the likelihood, what is the concern that we might see? trouble in the west bank, particularly in hot spots where the has been, is ready and cushions before. what are we hearing from on fractions? are they saying they're likely to launch any kind of operations? what does that leave the kind of soon the far to a well, let's not forget that palestinians factions do not really have a high representation here in the occupied the west bank. this is why we've been seeing the phenomenon of young men grouping together beyond their political affiliations. like you would see people from, from us, from the, from islamic jihad, you know, i think together carrying up arms and the sliding together to go and commit, commit to attacks, i guess is really forces. so when we are talking about the west bank, it's really difficult to find the party to pinpoint that to us and to see what kind of escalation they're talking about. you are talking about young men who are really
11:27 am
working in secrecy working together. and it's really hard to predict what and how and when, if social attacks are going to take this, we've been seeing these with the palestinian fighters advanced in their measures. we've been seeing them using more more explosive devices and incurring more damages when it comes to. these really are mutating the towns and villages. now this is the general situation when it comes to the fight as boss depaula city and population of large is on arms and the palestinian authority. when it looks at the, all of this it's finds itself and it's a bit, or if not a lot, this since, from its people out of stimulus or if he has been bowing to stay and basically is the voted to the political situation. but the streets and people in the streets will tell you that the policy of political solution has been notified
11:28 am
by israel, has been deemed really an applicable. because as you see, the palestinian authority kind of abiding by agreements that it has signed with israel, including for example, there security forces not using arms against the is really forces that are reading how to send in terms of villages bought. on the other hand, you would see is real, really this regarding if not all so lots of the signed agreements that they've done with the palestinians. so people feel that they've been left out let down by their leaders and many in particular the products to me it affords. all right, we'll leave it there. thanks so much need to abraham. well, there's been global concern over the spike and violence between israelis and palestinians. we have to correspondence monitoring that john henry is in the us capital harry force it is in london as go live 1st though to john henry from washington dc. so 1st of all, john is the us body pa. busy take following
11:29 am
a familiar pattern of routing around as well as the time of conflict. it is indeed both democrats and republicans on capitol hill roundly condemned a mazda attack and vowed to support israel. that came all the way from the mayor of new york city to republicans in congress, the president biden himself and biden, his mobilize his administration. anthony, blinking, the secretary of state has been calling leaders in the middle east, his counterpart and north africa, and urging any one with the influence with him on to try to de escalate that conflict is not what the administration had hope to be doing right now, blinking had planned to be in saudi arabia and israel for normalization talks between those 2 countries. instead he's in crisis mode responding to this a conflict. and the binding administration is he has been outspoken
11:30 am
in just offering their unequivocal support for israel president of a biking hasn't always been a big fan of benjamin netanyahu. they disagreed on settlements and other issues, but he offered his unequivocal support over the past 24 hours. this is what he had to say of israel has the right to defend itself, and as people full stop, there's never justification for terrorist attacks. and my administration to support or is your security, is rock solid and on way. let me say this is clearly as i can, this is not a moment for any party hospital, the israel to exploit these attacks to seek advantage the world is watching and drilling. i'm wondering.
