the city's 7, a sub of, of that's in they wrote while living on this kid take a prime minister in a jeep mccarthy's, reacted to these very striking by root. and he says the targeting of a populated residential area in the southern, the suburbs of the root proves once again, that the enemy as well, does not weigh any humanitarian, legal and moral considerations. all right, let's move now to honda. so who to, she's in the go, daniel capital, a mom and just to remind she's in amman because they were, the government has banned all just the from reporting from within the as well. i'm the, this strike on the root is, is clearly an escalation. what is these really government saying about it as

well? shortly after this air strikes took place, these really military did release the statements saying that they did in fact conduct what they're calling a precise and targeted air strikes. and just in the last several minutes, we are getting a statement from these really military that says the target of that strike was in fact and his bullet commander by the name of abraham obviously, was previously being circulated on these really media through sources that he was the target but now these really military has confirmed that they say that he was involved in multiple of the cross border fire attacks and was one of the commanders responsible for a lot of them. and they also a legs, but he was part of a quote, occupied the gallery plan, saying that he was an architect of it's wanting to be according to these really army invade is really territory and occupied the galley. so just to give you an idea of how this is escalating, it comes after earlier in the week,

these really prime minister had added a 4th of gold to the war, and it related to bringing those evacuated is really back to northern israel. previously, all the focus was on gaza, but in the last couple of days, these really defense minister, the army chief of staff and the prime minister himself has been saying, but the focus is shifting. the center of gravity is shifting and that they are now focused on the northern fronts. these really army chief of staff was actually in the northern part of israel today, meeting with the commanders of the northern front command. and those are the generals and other people responsible in these really army for carrying out decisions by the army, chief of staff on israel's northern front. and remember today, but more than a 100 rockets were fired from southern 11 on into different parts of northern israel. and these really military has said for not just the last week, but in fact, the last couple of months. and since the cross border fire had begun, but they were prepared for a wide variety of scenarios. but now they're saying,

but it's times where a diplomatic settlement has expired. the time to deal with this on paper which his bullet is no longer. and that is from the mouth of these really defense minister. you'll have good lawrence who said that israel is going to deal with this accordingly that his bullet, quote feels chase and his role is going to continue with their operations and 11 on however, they see fit. on the just before we let you go, i do want to ask you about the reality in the north, in terms of the people who are no longer there. and prime minister benjamin netanyahu saying that in a now is to return residence to that area. some might say that the strike would be root is a to challenge. he's black to move back. do people in israel feel that it's safe enough to move back to northern israel? is this and it just to met a 5 is really government as well. it's

certainly in a, in, by the is really government, but it's important to note that there has been no plan for northern israel, and the cross border fire has only intensified within recent months. and remember that back in july, you have his follow flying drones over sensitive targets in israel and publishing near 10 minute videos. not once but twice of their capabilities of what they can do, saying that they can fly these drones into israel. they know where these targets are. it's also important to mention, but israel does not know the extent of his bottle as weapons arsenal. nobody really does accept the lebanese group themselves. israel says they're prepared on a wide variety of friends. the army chief of staff has said that israel has capabilities they haven't yet used against his beloved, but that they are prepared to do so when it comes to returning those evacuated is really, is back to the north. it hasn't really been a focal point for these really government because the war on gaza is nearing

a year. and while the cross border fire is also nearing a year, all of the focus was just on gaza. and some of that focus also was split with rain in the occupied west bank, but we received on a daily basis with the military is overstretched. israel says that they can fight on multiple different problems and that they have everything they need. but according to many within israel, even some who speak anonymously to are in the defense and security apparatus, they say that israel would not be able to handle it. they're now moving military brigades from gaza to the north in order to prepare for what's next. but it's still unclear what exactly israel wants to do next. what it means for them to have some sort of offensive in lebanon. but nonetheless, they say that this is the war they are prepared to fight. honda, thanks very much for that update from amman. i'm the is in amman, jordan, because of the 0 has been banned from reporting in israel. thanks again on the a will just to update to the us

a president joe biden when asked about development and they've been on. he has said that uh, they are working to get people back to homes on the is where they live in on folder . and he's also being asked about the situation in gauze and a potential cease via and he says a lot of things look, i'm realistic, till they get done. and of course, the situation in gaza. intertwined with developments and they've been on a, as is well performs as strikes on a southern sub up in b route. but to keep us updated on what's happening there. let's move to do a search a body. she's in the root, dosa. what is the government said so far with regard to the strikes we did here briefly, at least one of the kid take a prime minister didn't leave the yes as the officials here. a are continuing to deal with the aftermath of this attack.

according to the lovely health industry, 9 people have been killed as so far and at least 59 injured. and we understand that at least age people of those 15 are critical condition. there are also children among the big folks. we understand that this strikes took place in a residential building with the poor civilian casualties. this is, of course, yes, another incidents, a very serious escalation. as a lebanese officials are going to be very, very adamant that is really aggression inside leaven on uh, cannot continue going on checks. uh, we are waiting for an official statement from has the law as well. they said that they will issue a statement shortly. then maybe we can have some confirmation about these claims by as well, that they have assassinated, as well as number 2,

and for him to kill him who is in charge of the organizations operations. so there's, so a lot of questions. i'm confirmed reports. we're waiting for official statement from has the law about the identity of those killed adults. so we continue to see pictures coming out to say, ruth, with this being that we have emergency vehicles on the sea and those with us flaws to place. we know it's a, a densely populated residential area. what is the mood like in be roots a in the always following this is strikes? well i could tell you we were on a street in downtown bedroom when we heard of the news. and we actually spoke to somebody who was near the glass. so and there was an immediate panic as the strikes took place. and then there was just else at the scene was at times made by calling

by my colleagues to get to the location with destruct to place. but security officials uh quote from has the law and the government prevented media from getting anywhere near as of last. so, and that still continues, but the general mood of people when they heard the news was absolute shock. and then of course a fear of what this means and what will come next as well as secretary general has on this role. i spoke just yesterday after those attacks that took place on members of his will on tuesday, wednesday by israel when their electronic devices were hacked and exploded, injuring over 3000 people and killing 37. uh there is a sense that these uh, they just moved and these attacks quite as well as a, as escalating the situation with has the lot to try and force them into some kind of a concession to the vh. the ongoing cross border fire that's been exchanged between has relied israel over the past 11 months since after israel's were on gas. it was

launch on october 7th. so the lebanese public celebrities, people are still very much in shock. and the latest strike a by israel on the targets in the southern suburb, a bare room just only adds to that. and it's very, very difficult for people here to imagine what will come next. there's only a sense of fear about where this is all the heading, of course, as well. ok, very key and that they are ready and able and willing to engage fully in a war with israel. but certainly, it's not something anybody here wants to see happen to. so thanks very much for keeping us updated from the root that's closer to vari. well, the range and embassy and lebanon's condemned the striking by route as is waiting madness to his assault. he is an assistant professor at the university of to ron and he's doing ending are so strong to haunt, as thanks very much for your time when l 20. given what the range an embassy and be

roots has since they've cooled, it is really madness. do you think we'll see similar reactions in the days to come? oh, well, as you said, they ran into embassy called this recent developments as a sign of madness by the release. and this is echoed by several other uranium, not the souls. uh, the reaction from the rain inside includes dispatching some medical release teams to 11 on to messages up condemnation and also 2 messages up. so the direct tv test belie live in non and the fact that there is going to be a continuation of, let's say, chord nation between different players and the rest of the front. but it's still, we know that iran is just sort of reassessed. thing gets to a political position, but just back to the latest developments on the ground. and of course we have not

to watch it very much heard about the exact plan of action. that's part of the big you'd see on the ground. that nice. i think that's part of your was plan to keep these really is very thing. we know that after the situation of his mind he uh into ron is really is, are long waiting for the rainy and reach out here to read. risk falls and of course it goes without saying that they, there is a search, a long list of whole started behaviors by days really is the gaze, these nomic republic, including dash, the summation of popular treat advisor including destination. um, but it is 5, a 7 nuclear sciences and the attack on the raining, costly and so far and so forth. but it's still under circumstances that we are facing at the time being the know that iran understand the complexity of the situation. iran is very much aware of the fact that is really is our new inc, basically 3 know border ben. it's cost of the systematic board that they have

initiated against the humanities and the know at goes without saying gas or what we heard from the united states. president joe biden, dad to see why the washington administration has given them a sort of green lights to go to a non controllable. and that means the risk of a sort of uh, full fledged old out war scenario into west asia, which is not a favorite option. for iran or any other logical player in the region, therefore, we see this strategy per station from the re new side. but it's still we have the emphasis from the rainier supreme leader weeks ago on the mississippi and efficiency of retaliatory action. and adjust yesterday, be heard the statements farm, uranian r g c. on the again, the same exist just before a crushing response to these rubies because there is, i think this profile, understanding into ron, that this madness is not going to be popped is real. these are going to continue

this var fair using every possible means add their company estate started this var by sending a actually many trojan horses to 11 on. and now today the see this error strikes, you're expecting more to come from these really sides seeing the fact that they're just sending the payroll to the washington and they are supported by the west and we will see the continuation of this car matic disastrous dangerous situation. but so at all events, i think the risk front uh, sees the strides and it has this right to respond. and of course it's going to be a tough response down the road, but better it's going to be symmetric or acid messic. and when it comes to the time table, the car, the quality of the response or other determinants, i think it's, it's, it's kind of vague and it's remains to be seen in the future. the right to head

thanks very much for you insights into this developing story. coming out of lebanon, a toyota. saudi is an assistant professor at the university of to ron. and he was speaking to us, the from st. on well, we return to vince and living on shortly. but we want to bring you up to date. now what's, what's happening in gaza and that's way in the past few hours, at least 13 palestinians were killed in these really strikes on the 7 most city of rough or a 3 children are among the dead. the attack targeted 2 houses in the midst of the area of northern rough or 50 for palestinians have been killed in these very rays in the gaza strip since dawn on friday to i'm sorry i was in there. old paula tarik, tell us what has been happening the the well the situation is very tense. the in fact with the ministry has hits to residential buildings in the know the hots will rough off fueling at least 15 palestinians,

including 5 siblings from the same family. and we are hearing from civil defense cruise that they are wanting to now in order to access move uh the victims under the rustle of that house. because we know clearly that these houses are densely populated, and people are trying to have some sort of show to like to be great level of disruption be inflicted to district bought in the past couple of hours in particular. well, there is a move per lodge of attacks being carried out by the is valley fight to just especially in this, in some areas of god that we could hear. now the sound of the palestinian excellence is taken to and there's a rot refugee camp in order to recover victims of to and this valley road hit a civil caldwell at least one kind of thing. and so far as arrive to the hospital, being critically injured from that strike, another residential building has been taped, an upgrade for could you come to now? there are no sorts of casualties arrive to hospitals in the central area. there has

been a general escalation from the grump smooth tenuously to the escalation in a liquid on it means that as well is distilled, pressing on with each smell of truck, pensive family and families in the north of this trip have confirmed that they have been experiencing on this subject to to the is valley. what hope the drums fire on this hello head you. rhodes? it's another civil call has been hit in going to the city. at least 3 palestinians were confirmed too. while 9 others were so far in tara today alone, they've been 54 people killed hallway emergency services, all of the hospitals hoping you're outside one of them. and we know that in recent months they've been quite this quickly restricted the the, the situation is very clearly taking those hospitals and even so, imagine, see what, cuz because there is a very grubbing untenable security conditions on the ground. places locations,

of course, funds have been made without any warning entrances. with the help of one that seems on some part of things on the ground. they bring more casualties to these fairly functional costs because we, we continue to hear every data from this. imagine see what is the medical field about how difficult is the process to recover and to pull up victims from under the remnants of these areas. they are talking about the very chronic shortage of full civil equipment. they are using the belly hands in order to recover victims. they are talking sometimes that they come under. that gets very funny i'm. we're talking about more than 100 kind of sidney and medic sounds even about just what has happened to since school began bust him up for about 2023. and this is a very dangerous escalate to the reality because those people are risking their lives as they are not even have any sort of safety or protection. and at the same time, it's very um, it has been up scaling these military strikes. families are heading to evaporation

. sensor isn't full, we can't get safety, but evaporation sensor as hospitals. and all the goals is about to go to a strip has been of very intense. the abutment. people believes that there might be sort of military mitigation, as well as moving, get some x rays concentration of the pennies on the spot. it's quite contrary the opposite, have been escalating the strikes and they are taking blip and one of the basic destruction for what's happening here. this trip i talked to all right, thanks very much for that up the speaking there to tarry. so i was as well, if you're just joining us, let's recap. of breaking news is really missiles, if hit the liberties carpets will be route. the strikes hit, a crowded residential area in the city 7 suburbs living owns the house, ministry says at least 9 people have been killed. 59 were wounded in the attack. several massage, we don't find his way to a cross destroying at least 2 residential buildings. is real, says the strike,

you'll see now here's the 2nd in command abraham, a kill his pillows most in front as though he's below as quiet. at least $200.00 missiles from living on towards northern israel. and that's since early friday as well as a defense intercepted civil loves themselves with no injuries reported a hush and has this update from tire and southern they've been on of this attacking bandwidth is just a continuation for uh, what's, what's been happening over the past months especially what happened on the end of july when is read us as an agent has the logs. principle minutes, we combined mustang sugar or for a true core. and later on this security attacks, as we've been discussing the ones in this week, and today, hitting out what's being said, a very senior has will lock them on that for now. there's no confirmation from the

organization that this ministry combined, there will scaled down a lot of reports about him being killed and others with him for the for now we don't have any solid information from the ground. but this just through what is really defense minister you are going to a thing. yes it is that has the law will be paying more prices and this was in response to what part of the fellow said in his speech that he would continue whatever the circumstances. oh, he would continue to think the liberties front with the front thing, garza, you will continue to stop the residence of the north for returning to their homes before the season. 1 and goes on before the end of this war. so this whole complex is just how cumulation gets a day by day operations and very, very sensitive operations. well, you as president joe biden has been asked about these various strikes and they've

been on and all the construct has escalated each day. this week. he says he's administration won't stop working until the region is safe for residents. again, the people in northern israel as well, the southern level not able to go back to their homes, go back safe. in the sector, state search or defense or whole teams work entails community, try to get that done. really, keypad to get it. got a way to get the fire so it's not realistic. totally lot of things don't look realistic until we get it done. we have to keep all the wife's house as closely

watching the situation and living on full reaction from there. let's go. so she have pretend season washington dc should have we've just heard some of what you as president joe biden, doesn't have to say, but national security spokesperson. john coby is also spoken. what does he said? and here's i was point blank to have the us had any advanced knowledge and the a heads up about the latest attacks. he said he was not aware of any notification, pre notification of the strikes. he was off with us. i mean, us intelligence had been used in the strikes. he said that the no us involved with the all was also one of the concerns about the strikes. and he said he was not going to comment any further. but anyway, the do of a general speech about how he doesn't want any further escalation. he thinks that negotiated settlement between israel and his brother about them as well as goals and vote of so live in southern border care can be reach that,

trying hard to do to get that done. but it's very, it's strange them to the v on by. you can just say that we're doing everything we can to deescalate, get everyone back in the homes. and you have to really balance is some kind of green lights also as well to carry on doing what it's, it's currently doing and essentially got biking for frames. what's happening right now, 11. it's like we're doing everything we can to get people back in the homes and all of them is well, that's always real striving. ready that doing right now, 11 and they say what we're opening up this from in order to really quite explicitly talking about opening up and expanding rather the friends, while us board for the escalation in order to supposedly getting this right. he's back into the house. and joe biden is they'll continue to keep at it. does that seem like a reasonable, reasonable response in terms of bringing people back to the north of israel we, it's likely that that is a front is that both the become com at any point his beloved,

most likely will react today alone. we've seen 200 rockets being fired. yeah, but everyone's aware what we'll get these are and who's back to where it is as well as and explicit. it's a ceasefire and garza so actually by and was off. so is it on realistic? so that sees 5, that is the cool issue here. and he said, well, you know, things look unrealistic until until they get done. but he has to say that really, cuz what we have seen as a change of the white us now with various people briefing the us, me just saying, no, it's probably not going to happen now to, you know, to, you know, before the an organization is the next, the next president by me, well what else is he going to say he's in to. 1 foreign policy reputation is in taxes. he came in saying, i'm, you know, that's going to be the, you know, that the expert on foreign policy for general, the senate foreign relations committee. we always have the stories about how you brought to the heads and the obama administration is vice president. there's, you know, he thought he knew foreign policy foreign policy. that he,

that he was the one who united ones with the betty hardwick. net on yahoo. and it's awfully awfully failed. i am not, i mean that he, um, he's also failed and there's other main main hopes that he was going to get a normalization agreement between israel and saudi arabia. he's always chased or the fact of trump achieve the abrahamic, who is normally is ation with the you a buy rating and israel, which arguably led directly to october the 7th, but he was gonna be the foreign policy present. he was gonna get the big ones out of the rate, get that stuff and ruled out pretty much as well by, by sadie ridge. yeah. he's spelled what else is it gives a we're going to keep on trying. because because right now is reputation in the middle east, as well as the mounted board, everything together. it's of having left to success with all that regional war and himself having gained the nickname of genocide. jo shop, thanks very much for spacing to us from washington dc. or ami, cory is a distinguished fellow at the american university of a root, and he's joining us from boston around me. i want to start by asking you about the

target of this is really is strike as well. is saying that it has managed to kill the a top come on to of his below. we don't have that confirmation from his blood. but if that is the case, what would it mean? it would mean that it's killed. another senior has about the military officer as has killed others that's killed the head of his beloved, the past. it's them the same against palestinian groups as been coming, palestinian political and military leaders since the 1980s. when the po for us became powerful and significant and, and resisted whatever it was doing, it's been killing a senior members of the pillow and how mass has been a little iranian senior officials and the scientist. so this is a strategic policy that is real, has used

a really going back to the 1930s of when, before the state of israel zionism has always had the policy of trying to drive out . as many boasted means from palestine as it can to create that space for a jewish state. it succeeded in doing that. and it succeeded in doing that precisely by the, by its ability to do what we just saw now on tv to turn the strongest man in the world. joe biden, a, into a brother from blubbering mumbo jumbo a provider, which is absolutely shocking and more sharply than that is that the new democratic party candidate in the us come with her. this continues, the mumbo jumbo show, with what she says, which is nothing. they just say these platitudes, because all they care about is their political incumbency and serving or supporting

israel, or helping responding to israel, has always been in the last 50 years, a strategic priority for american politicians. the few american politicians who went against israel lost their post and the just, i'm going to the democratic primaries. so this is a, this is a problem. the israel's ability to influence american and british and other policy has always been extra teaching strings and it achieves stayed, taught. and then said she and it's jim sidle a separate colonial expansion. now by getting support from the west or, or just neutralizing the western powers. this is a picture that the western powers and societies have to deal with about killing another palace to another has a lebanese leader official, a military official. and this case is nothing new. they've been doing this for 3040

years. and it's the only thing it's done. ethics is push these groups whether palestinian or 11 years or whatever they may be. yeah. many and others, iraqi. iranian, it's push them to become more proficient at doing resistance, both military and political resistance. and it hasn't brought as real, more security as real today is the most dangerous place on the world for a jewish person to live. and this is astounding and terrible, and the, the, the, we should go to not be happy with this. we know the palestine is the worst place in the world for a palestinian to live and now the same thing is happening to his relatives and have the freedom.
