people are leaving the area because there's been another is really air strike these . the airstrikes have been happening since the early hours of the morning. in fact, in recent days, and we are very, very close to the southern city of tire, that is a very densely populated city, some 25 kilometers from the border. the feeling here is that the is really military wants to drive people out of southern lebanon, causing another crisis that could be used as leverage against has the law not able to reach the price of the price. so there's a lot of chaos here. they are very that there's going to be another strike there's, there's panic and chaos. we are very close to one of the most densely populated citizens in the south of the country. this conflict is moving beyond the border and this conflict is becoming more intense as bringing him on town who is in southern 11 on for us as well. a 182 people have died in 11 on today. and ron over

700 wounded. i believe including women, children, and medics, the situations escalated incredibly false positive and it continues to do so that i can just terrified to jump up in the about 10 minutes ago we saw and is really extra like come in just in that direction. we're on the south east of the southern lebanon area. and then just before that, there was a barrel of about 10. i counted rockets taking off from lebanese territory, going to was israel. they sold began at $630.00 a. and when the 1st is really strikes, i came in in that wave attack across 711 on israel says that was about 150 targets that they hit. i counted around 10 in the area the i'm

just in then mid morning. there was another one. and these where the army say another 150 targets where i hit a now on go in there is a 3rd wave guy, one which actually has stretched down to the east of the country in the call valley . so this is a very serious escalation, hezbollah, as i've just told you, are actually responding as well. but it is causing a lot of panic. and a lot of kyle said, if you could just give us a bit more detail in ron about the area that's been affected by the strikes so far today. uh, because if it's quite a large area that goes well, be on that board area that we've been just discussing over the weeks and months up to up to today. uh, how populated is some of this areas as well, number to you in provence. sorry, governor is where i am actually in my right now. my june is got. so it's one of the

my main, the main towns now that was here at its height is around about 340000 people. most of it towards the boat as um, those contested voters with israel has been empty and has been empty for about a year where i am in much are you um. it's like a smooth village town rather, but it's used to be a village. we think of this about like, you know, let me show you around. actually you can see is a lot of farm land. so it's, it's, it's widely, uh, it's a wide size, but it is sparsely populated right now. and when i say about 30000, we're thinking of around about 500-6000 people that have left behind it. but they are actually looking at that far as they watching the news. and they trying to decide where to go. but they're also looking at the fact that this is now happening in the tier governor governor is where

a lot of people fled to to. that's now been on the attack by getting the feeling that no way is site. but more importantly, not the roads leading out of the numbers here, governor at all shatka blog. it's a, basically a traffic jam that looks like a pocket meals. so lots of people very can said that the money to be able to get out if they do get out where they're going to go and where they go. is that going to get attacked as well by these ratings? and we're on con, uh that for us in southern lebanon, we can go now to do a search bar a. she joins us from the capital in bay re dos. uh, so tell us in a bit more detail about these messages that people in loving on uh, not just and buried, but across 11 on have been receiving this morning and some of describing them. the messages is psychological wolf or what exactly. all the messages that people have been getting as well. people receive text

messages, a prerecorded phone call messages, as well as a radio stations. here were uh, overtaken to broadcast the message that people should leave areas as that's near or in places that are storing has the weapon. so at this influx of messages came through not only in the southern part of the country, but we've had government offices here in the capital. great routes will receive phone calls, telling them to evacuate the building as because of the threats of an attack, of course. and the information minister was one of the buildings that is about a kilometer away from here was one of the offices that receive this call. now it's a very reaction that we've had from people is 1st of all, where are they supposed to go? and 2nd, how would they know whether or not it's their building next to that where the building that they live it or working? has eddie, as well, a weapons. there's a lot of questions that come from this kind of messaging that was put out by these riley military. now,

people here are very much of the mindset that this is another escalation. and israel, since you were psychological warfare, that has been ongoing width of the love of these people for many days. now, this is not the 1st time they've had did these kinds of threats. there's been a walkie talkie and so pedro attacks of belonging to members of hezbollah that were exploding random places and throughout the country last tuesday and wednesday, that resulted a number of casualties and over 3000 people injured so many people here believe this is yet another escalation in what they believe to be psychological warfare, the information ministry said that they are going to continue their work and they're not going to give in to this kind of pressure and how people in baby it's actually dealing with what's happening. what impact is that having and people of the well, the 1st thing is that's the emergency committee and that the government has decided

to at close a number of schools across a they routes as well as parts of southern loven on for monday and tuesday as well . as universities and various other institutions, and we understand that there will be some, most of that will be turned into a mix of shelters for the people that are flipping the southern part of the country . and we also have been speaking to people who are residents of a route and they say that they are not going anywhere. they're not going to be threatens and pushed out of their homes horse. they are concerned in their last hour. we've seen a huge exodus from the people that live in the a suburb of here, which is our service along it is from where i'm standing in the south course. there was an is rarely strikes there on friday targeting has will our hearts advisors as that of course, civilians were caught in the crossfire. 52 people were killed, 16 members of hezbollah and the rest were civilians. so there's a sense here that the civilian population is no longer safe. and the red lines that there was that was a place between as well on israel,

no longer being. c basically adhere to, so that is the escalation that people are seeing. but despite all that, they are very, very defiance. here are the liberties population. they say they will all be pushed out of their homes, that they will not give into this kind of psychological attack that israel has launched on this country. ok, many things for that to search bar a that for us in bay roots, that's 10 now to stephanie deca, she's in amman because these really government has bombed algebra from a poor saying inside israel. so a lot happening. uh, what all these really ministry saying about the developments and nothing on today. so the p r machine has been very hard at work since the already morning. you had daniel, hey gary, that's the military spokes person, giving a visual presentation this morning saying that this was a preemptive strike. because hezbollah was preparing to attack israel. he then went back saying that hezbollah for the past 20 years has been minutes. rising civic and

infrastructure, giving the world a presentation. some of that israel is always very keen on a visual presentation, showing 3 d of homes of missiles inside those homes, very much playing into the narrative that his role is using. now saying that it is targeting the weapons at rocket infrastructure, cruise missile infrastructure that has by law is using. we've then recently had another statement from these rating our meet spokesperson, just 2 hours ago focusing now one what they're calling a 3rd wave targeting the called valley. this is in the east of level on a mountainous region. also an area where hezbollah has a strong hold cooling on civilians. they are 2 hours ago to evacuate. only 2 hours to leave. they had to go around a kilometer away, as you heard from doors to their big question mark as to where do you go? how do you know whereas bala may or may not have it's weaponry so very much of warning. they are from the army. very steadfast saying that they are going to

continue in operation. that is very much underway. i'm calling on civilians to the but of course, you know, the war with hezbollah is very different than when it comes to war with how math is role is now fighting on 2 fronts. the weaponry has bullet, contains much more difficult for israel to contain. for example, the ion dome system that is to effective against rockets coming out of goals are not capable at uh, stopping, has bought his arsenal. and stephanie, do we have a sense that a little uh, from the various statements from the as right. the mother of she ministry today, how much preparation that was actually sets up a what's happened today and, and, and in a sense of what is going to happen next, or what we've been covering this region. and this works since the beginning. and i can tell you that even we many months ago got the sense that a war and the north with level non with has by law specifically wasn't eligible. uh,

this is a language that these really military and it's political echelons particularly this, right. when government had always held to now they're talking about, you know, returning the 10s of thousands of residents back to their homes in the north with a very interesting statement that's been linked to both as radio and us media, d escalating through escalation, whatever that means. what you do see now is that they've opened a 2nd front. yes. these ratings are saying that they're willing, they're ready to go in and on the ground invasion. i think that's still a big question. mark. certainly, hezbollah has the upper hand when it comes to anything on the ground invasion. you also have in his regular army and reserve as that are incredibly tired, after fighting and goals are almost 11 months. and of course, the war a conflict with has by law to very difficult or dangerous and conflict for that. we've just also heard from these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu, where he was calling one is really citizens to stand together. he said, we face difficult and complex days ahead and asking them for 2 things,

one to listen to the orders of the homefront commode in to, to start together. and in his words, saying that if they do that, they will, when many analysts will tell you that that's in yahoo has really only had one a when it comes to the goal is a conflict is prolonging that war now facing north because the more he remains aware the country at war, the more he remains in power and certainly interesting, the polls recent me also showing that his popularity is rising as the months go on . okay. uh, thank you so much for that. to gauze and now where is ready? strikes have killed at least 10 palestinians in the center of the strip on a tack on a home. and darrow bala killed and mother and her 4 children. another 5 people were killed when the school uses a shelter in and is there a refuge account was boned as rarely forces of killed more than 41400 power simians

in gaza since october the sort of a the so we were shocked by these really me silence i could for in the morning, my neighbor told me they had to talk to my brother's house. we went there as a font size matters for children and the mother. their bodies were cut into pieces . they're talking to house is art and you just, you find the reasons me a lot in my, you to save us and put an end to disagree this. and this was the conditions for tens of thousands of palestinians living and make shift shelters and 10. so getting was heavy, rain as close flooding and on the watch, the in south west goza and israel has declared the narrow strip of land, the circle of evacuation zone earlier in the war. however, there's no electricity forced to induce on a taishan children a suffering. the most and conditions maloney deteriorates during the winter months . tire couple of zoom is indira by that and central garza with what move on the latest attacks of the army. despite the main military focus now live in on the all

hits in multiple areas in district without no sort of response. the main focus was targeting residential houses alongside with the main evaluation sensors that all housing of thousands of palestinian assemblies as we have been reporting before. that today, an evacuation center has been hit in and was that rots. refugee can come in at least 5 palestinians alongside that. the civil defense crews were really struggling in order to recover the victims of them under the remnants of distracted buildings and also a residential home in a different bus which is located in a very densely populated area has been widely hits in don't all of us today with 5 palestinians have been killed, including a mother loom side with who would have full children. we showed them in fact, at the move along the hospital where the sea was very pleasing and double stating because the, the seat of the mother was lying and got close to her kids. and they were just

being witnessing somebody go to far will like their relative was very hot fricking before whose families have been killed in on a daily basis and goes on without any sort of change so far. so has on al jazeera schools for an old. so the way the un security council operates the future of how a veto in the balance has a lot of that will start in south asia with a monsoon range. haven't been very active in recent days, but we're seeing something foaming in the bay or bang goal in area of low pressure that's going to bring some very heavy rain and windy conditions to me in my bungling dash and most eastern parts of india. so, drenching rain to come from westbank go and be shutting the days ahead. we're also

gonna see some very heavy rain effect western parts of india. we've got amber warnings out for con, can and go with that rain moving into most central areas as well by the middle of the week to the solve. this move showers, but some dry patches for sri lankan lots of sunshine here. and that system of the story for the northwest and for pockets found that we could see some showers in new delhi on wednesday. we could also see some showers in beijing as we move to east asia. i'm going to pull up of heavy rain pulling from mongolia, moving its way across the north east. but to the south of this lodge, the dry cool central area is temperature is pushing up and we'll have a few showers in some cloud for shanghai. so what is, what does, what we saw last week here, the heaviest of the rain affecting hong kong when done province in china with some heavier rain for tie one as well on wednesday the

as the world economy those struck those with a strong result. indonesia is where such resolve about the right place for your business to get off the ground of grace. otherwise with this strategic downstream industry on the client inventories your better tomorrow. a news the they're watching out of there are mind. top stories this hour is really stripes of

killed at least 10 palestinians and central gaza attack on a home in there about a killed a mother and her 4 children. now the 5 people were killed when a shelter in our own. is there a refuge account? israel has loan state's largest attacks and 11 on and he is killing at least a 18270 citizens and enjoying more than 700. in the ministry have radio full costs and some threatening text messages, warning people to move away from has pull up. what stores us. okay, we've got somebody help it standing by at the white house 1st. let's head to gabriel at his own days at the united nations for us. so gabriel, we've just seen a statement from unit fail, which is the year in interim $411.00 on a, and the in israel stripe. so 11 on will impact the un peacekeeping mission along the board. would have they have to say yeah,

that's right. you're gonna feel, uh, the ones peacekeeping mission has about 11000 personnel. they're just issued a statement within the last couple of minutes. it says, and i'm summarizing a little bit, but i'll read part of it says unit feel expressed as grave concern for the safety of civilians in southern lebanon. and it's the most intense is really bombing campaign. since last october, the statement goes on to say that the, the general lieutenant general that is in charge of the mission has been in contact with both lebanese and is really parties emphasizing the urgent need for deescalate action efforts are ongoing to reduce tensions and hold the showing that's part of the statements that we just got in from unit field just within the last few minutes . i can certainly tell you that the secretary general's spokes person is expected to brief the media in a little under 2 hours from now during his normal mid day briefing that they hold

here at un headquarters. you well, you can be sure that he is going to be asked about the current pastor of unit feel along the blue line. he had said in the past and the secretary general himself has said for many months, not weeks but months now that one of his biggest concerns was increased tensions along the blue line. and a further escalation spill over his, he would say in the 11 on these were certainly the secretary general's worst nightmares as, as we could see. and now we're starting to see that play out in real time. uh and uh, this conflict like a to top the agenda gabe at the un general assembly, which takes off soon. uh, what are we expecting from that? yeah, that's right. more than a 130 heads of state or heads of government have descended on new york city. here

to the united nations high level leak kicks off on tuesday morning with an opening speech from the secretary general. we've been told that he's still making changes to his speech, perhaps taking events that are transpiring in lebanon. again, we hope to get a briefing from this folks person for the secretary general, but i can tell you that this is going to be one of the, a you in general assemblies where the u. n. itself is facing multiple crisis around the world. of course we've got sudan, we've got ukraine, but primarily there will be so much discussion both formally and informally, about the situation in gaza. israel's continued war on guys up, but now of course, the escalation in 211. and there's really 2 general assemblies that are taking place, the official program, and then what everybody is talking about on the sidelines. and that is certainly garza and love it on right now. okay,

thank you for that. gabriel alexander the 1st in new york. and let's go to can be whole kits. she's lives the white house in washington. kimberly. so no real response gets from the white house to what's happening in 11 on a do we expect any kind of reaction from them soon as well we, we have had kind of an indirect reaction in just the last hour. so there was a memo put out by the, by the ministration on president biden's, legacy, if you will, as he has to, the united nations general assembly, where he will be delivering his final address to the assembly. and it lays out as part of his legacy, it says he is the bible administration and present button entered. and then it has period of diplomacy alluding to his efforts to try and secure a cease fire and israel's war on gaza. but what this is also acknowledging is that

it's unlikely that that is going to be achieved, given the fact that there was this concern. but the escalation 11, i would have for those efforts. and i can tell you that privately behind the scenes at the bottom administration, they certainly are acknowledging, but the escalation in what is now sort of a northern front is certainly going to make those efforts not only more difficult, but perhaps impossible, by the end of president biden's term. okay. okay. and kimberly, we've also had reaction oven way on the closure of a bureau in the occupied westbank by israel in the last few days. what is the us set about? that is yeah, what the national security council saying this morning is that the operation to shut down the bureau is concerning the white house gathering more information. that's often what it has been saying in the last week with regard to whether it's

a tax and loving on or now this closure of our bureau rarely do we get any sort of update, however, but the administration goes on to say the actions are inconsistent with us support for press freedom, that could also tell you that there are a lot of journalists, very upset here in the united states and around the world. in fact, the national press club has issued its own statement. the president of the club, emily will can say that algebra 0 is one of the few dependable sources in the region. it must be allowed to reopen and the press club is condemning what is called aggressive. and needless act, that is the tearing down of a banner inside our ramallah offices, honoring our own journalist street of athletic who was killed by this really bullet . back in may of 2022. she goes on to say the kelly, it was never properly investigated. and this assault on her memory is an aggressive and needless act, she was a us citizen and the united states must continue to press for justice in her case.

something i can tell you is not happening. okay, thank you for that can be whole. could that for us in washington at the white house? let's get more now with you'll see that and he's a format is ready. justice minister, you join us now from tel aviv. so the increasing intensity that we've seen of strikes by israel into 11 on today. a $182.00 people killed in the last few hours, including women and children, $700.00 people injured. what is israel trying to achieve here as well? it is yours, doesn't want to achieve anything, but a glad situation. it was. he's bought out which you decided on the 8th, all say october of last year to joined with a home us and to a launch a kind of a lower lives. and we'll wait easy way and a 60000 days or at least and they had to evacuate, still holds

a in the no sofa is right in dusty eh, they never read to this. they all say, apologize, spencer. i'm a big mess and you'll see i have to jump in because it's, it's, it's well documented that for every one strike that has bullet carries out as well, carries out full strikes against his ball a. so you can say that this is not something that israel wants it doesn't, it only shows that he's running at belmont leads much stronger. and a he said there is a falls, a terrorist. flo slacks is by law, which is the sides out of the blue to at that k is how you can it is. it's really no house. it's not, it's really no out of the blue. you can say a 1000 the blue as well as says that they are carrying out this fights on behalf of what is happening in gaza. how do you explain what is happening and gaza?

they can decide whatever they want. they can figure it out. yeah, identifying which we do ukrainians again, structural whatever. but there was no is really a tap on them and they decided because of whatever reason to a launch these say, well, many people are working and not okay. i see that's a mistake. i'll say, i'm guessing i'm going, i'm going to have to stop you that i'm gonna have to stop you. that because we're gonna have to go to the lebanese health ministry. and let's have a listen to what the minister has to say. the big numbers of monitors unwanted paper folded and then they will take into the hospitals including.
