the, the safe, the mean comment as an international inside corruption, excellence award, denominator hero. now the israel alisha is i'm knights of massive and strikes on southern bay a route the ministry says if targeting sites belonging to hezbollah in the summer, but to hear the other one down. jordan this about is there a life that i just sold on the capital began as the sun set on friday residential blocks of in the southern suburbs. it is time to face the truth and the truth is

on the list mentioning yahoo has stopped unless this government, this stopped, or whether the encompass all of us leader, somebody otwell condemned as well as the actions of the united nations. as warnings grow about the risk of a wider regional as with all fines rockets into the northern is ready 6 we have suffered in its 1st response to the attacks on that route. the is really is continuing its bombardment to the densely populated summit. but here in southern bear with me with a string of shoes and strikes dropped the night. fire hasn't golf buildings across the southern summit where israel's ministry says it's been striking science belonging to hezbollah. i have something in coverage from living lighting up the lights. kyle: with a root strike, act to strike lunch light is was shot to ring. any ho,

the doctor used to teach please to stop escalating a tax on 11 on that docks. have targeted the densely populated suburb of di. what is radius also struck a guess for the south, including targets out on the southern city of tyre? one of the largest attacks on a route and decades began as dusk fell over the city and continued long into the 9th. the to begin with 10 massive strikes, targeted the aftermath and this residential neighborhood was devastating for the rescue as a nearby residence. rushed to search the rubble for survivors. the he has been hit by is with several times this week. but friday's attacks are, by far, the largest water i shut up. that will be the hudgens. it was in the strike felt

like an earthquake of the ground was shaking there. i was on the 7th floor in the southern suburbs and saw a strange mass of fire. the entire building was shaking and it has affected me psychologically. i know a little bit more that may have, you know, some of this was a painful strike with innocent civilians affected. what can we say? there are a bunch of criminals, 11. these are not fighting them. all booming buildings like they all have the heart of their dog is really let us quick to justify bombing, you have any populated civilian neighborhood, saying it's strong. and major has block, combine center and weapons default, please, by the central headquarter, was intentionally built under residential buildings in the heart of the gulf young bay route. as part of this bundle strategy of using the lebanese people as human shields. but it's clear, many of the victims in dusky home to about 700000 people are civilians. the us

has been pushing is risk to negotiate to see spy with his blog and says the strikes and the he went to achieve that game. but secretary of state hunter blinking weston creek defend is rez. auctions. the question is not. this is real, have a right to deal with existential threats with security and enemies across its uh, its borders with the a valid intent to destroy his real force. it does. but the question is, what is the best way to achieve its objectives? we believe the diplomatic courses, the best part is what it says. it strikes on level. and that's something has blogs that tax allowing displaced is really to return to the north with the latest attack on be within the south, as well as once again made it clear that bombing, residential buildings is no obstacle to that goal. or the actual just see it all fire southern level, but all of the mazda and joins us live again from 11 east capitol,

all of in terms of the timeline. just bring us up to date. then with these intensive is randy strikes 7 nights on by route. just bring us up to date with what's been happening as well. just at this moment while i was waiting to come on, that there was a loud buying a loud explosion coming from this direction. i don't actually have a clear line of sight, so i called the entire show whether it was an air strike or sony boom. but either way, it shows that this intense aerial bombardment is still carrying on. i mean, fact it's, it begun this evening at around 7 pm local time, about 9 or 10 hours ago with this shoot a strike on the da here to some of the top of a roof, which is very densely populated state as impact. this residential area is really ministry saying that they were targeting the central c'mon center or has the law that has been no official statements from his law. and we've not been able to get down there and verify this. and they've been,

there has been no evidence produced by these really. following this, there was a wave of ass trice caring on across the southern south of wave after wave. they hit the arrows of high das lucky and traffic. and this has really been an unprecedented night of attacks on the capital. nothing like this since 2006, the war between israel and has a lot back then. and many people are awake and many people are watching and worried . as this explosion happened, a few people came out onto the street to look. so as a saying, this is a very unimpressed fence time and it's very tense time right now in bainbridge and of course 11. and as you've been telling us throughout the nights of a, the southern southern of the here is extremely densely populated. this is having a huge impact on residents. the now a big displacement crisis, in the very heart of the lebanese capital to correct

or evening people have been leaving production or they have been fleeing. we've seen video footage of people trying what doing whatever they can to escape. people just walking without bags. in fact, one person i spoke to earlier on the phone, he was in a real estate upon a key or need of 3 doors down from that 1st stride. he's taking, he's grabbing his papers, he's grabbing as possible anything you could just to get out. he lost his sister in, in this, in the middle, and he was trying to find her. eventually he found that they might have to move. but they are just one. so the number of thousands of people that have been spreading out 1st period trying to find safe shelter. we've had reports that lots of people have turned up and run that out by the which is the public beach 11 on a, in the, in the conference. pay rates and people, there's been a cool out the 10 for sleeping bags. and we've also heard that hundreds, maybe even thousands of people have turned up and marked as quiet in the center of

downtown baby. just looking for somewhere safe because there's already being a massive displacement of people from across lebanon, according to the international organization. for migration, at least 90000 people have been displaced in just in the last few days by these really strikes. so the hotels in favor already full of people from the south. so the residence of the dusky that just trying to find anywhere safe, they can right now to rest the heads and find refuge from this intense aerial them . bob. yeah, hold on to the final thoughts you any response yet from his blog to this new escalation, which you've been witnessing of an item, of course the whereabouts of it's need to have something else rela, as we've heard nothing official about the house on the seller, the secretary general has the law and the husband has not put out a statement of his whereabouts or his is well being. um we have in the last year i was still not heard anything from the has the law any of that part departments? the immediate department,

no official statement. the one statement i did put out earlier was in reply to the is reading the ministry saying that they were targeting weapons the hers on miss iowa and to ship ms. ios has wasn't without a statement saying that these statements by these really ministry were in fact not true. the untruths there are fabrications. and that the areas that are being hit a very much residential areas in the south of a route. and as you say, very densely populated, very packed, resolute residential areas in the capsule. all right, to all of a mazda and live for staffing by root, automotive, thank you for that. meanwhile has been on his side rockets of israel is an old and city of soft. that is the 1st strike announced by the group since the 1st is rarely a sold on the lebanese capital on friday. is there any police say, as extensive damage to prophecies as a result of folding strap? no, no casualties have yet been reported. it's bringing home to salute. use live for us from a man named jordan because there's been a government spammed out to 0 from reporting within israel congress and multiple

statements you've been telling us coming from is where the officials every night. what more have we've been hearing about the attacks on live in a well, just in the last several minutes, these really army releasing get another statement saying that they are continuing their attacks. invaded specifically on the suburb of da here in the southern part of the city. they say that they're striking his bottle of targets. but the statements we've been receiving from the military are about stripes all over the country, and they do it in the capital. in the east and in the south. let's start with where this all began. earlier on friday in the evening, around 7 pm when there was the largest air strikes on the lebanese capital in decades, these really army says they were targeting a command center for his beloved in this densely populated suburbs of bailey with that's home to more than 700000 people. now they have not released any evidence

based on the intelligence, but they say they have, this is a pattern from these really military. we have seen repeatedly, 1st in gaza and now and loving on. but what these really army did release was a simulation video saying that there were surface to ship air ship missiles rather, excuse me, that they were targeting in the basement of this building. but they did not show the weapons themselves. this has been the case for all of the air strikes that have been conducted. the army says they are only targeting his bottle of targets. but as we have seen, civilians continue to be the casualties here not to mention the depths and the injuries, but also the near 100000 who have been displaced as a result. and also what a israel to aims here, because i haven't met you you've been in casa, are we any care as to what they want, what they want to achievement? a totally 11 on as well, nearly a year after the war in gaza and a year after the cross border fire,

which is well let in the north. none of israel's military objectives and goals have been achieved a couple of weeks ago. these really prime minister have added a 4th wargol previously there were 3 and they were all related to gaza. but this time that's and young who said he wants a specific agenda item relating to the war that is for the north, specifically. and that is, he wants to return those tens of thousands of evacuated is released back to those towns in settlements along the border, and not attacking his bowline, destroying their military capabilities, like rockets that would be aim toward northern israel is the way to do that. but of course there are a lot of questions here. what's next? what is going to happen? where is this going to lead to? well, israel says that all of the options are on the table that they still have a lot of capabilities. his boma hasn't yet seed and that if need be, israel is ready to invade, southern loving on with boots on the ground. yeah. and that's an important point to make that so just the final thoughts you then i'm gonna, how much does israel see this?

as the most opportune time to hit has blog is read, talks about changing the balance of power on the board as a tool cuts through. like israel sees this now as the best possible time to achieve that. a well, according to is really officials, especially the army chief of staff who have been speaking throughout the last couple of weeks. but especially within the last 48 hours, they've been saying that they still have a lot of work to do when it comes to diminishing his bowl as military capabilities . they say that this was their window of opportunity. they had been waiting for 3 years to attack the lebanese group. they say that they also still have a lot left in store, that they will exhaust every single option that they have. so again, it's on clear where this is heading, but israel has located a lot of resources toward that border in the north. there are 2 reserved regains, and an additional brigade that was dispatched from gaza to go to the north. there have also been tags and other military vehicles that were seen throughout israel

being transported to the north. so it's still unclear exactly if there is going to be around invasion into southern lebanon. but israel has said they are making all types of preparations just for that, including conducting some of the largest drills and israel's history in the north simulating an invasion into loving east territory. all right to, i'll just here in the honda civic life, was that in amman and jordan? i'm definitely oh, thank you. what other we spoke to on the hush and by phone, he's entire, in southern lebanon, where there's also been a big wave of strikes during the nights for now we are out of shape. boston that all is ready as strikes once the town is, i'm going to change surrounding the city all star. of course, during the past hours, there were in kind of strikes my sugar. so i never seen something like this before . the whole sky wasn't just liking and of course this is,

this is just spots of what's happening again. and they were to also just the continuation of what's happening in the fabulous a name power. i'm getting the 5 g mirage that the launch to watch israel and the last one just a few minutes ago. but for now it's, it's clear that situation is getting was minutes after minute and it's just getting off the impression that we are in the phones more going on right now. we'll just use this in the beginning of this whole section more probably in the past few days, there was some kind of patience when we saw the big strikes, the duration is with the pager of talk with the walkie talkie. i talked with the head a doctor, it would be the strike on the lock on monday and today with this huge

deal. i think i was on the start here on the 2nd. it sounds like it's a bit more so. yeah, i mean it's, it's, it's cleared up. thank you and have been working on a kind of vision. i'm pulling this chain of command. this is a lot of my sleeping several times today. say that the child hit the so much center by trying to hit the control layer, which is the communication by trying to catch on some of the infrastructure, the ministry infrastructure with what you are seeing today with several of strikes on different areas. this has been going on of course, for several weeks on lunch, but not which intensify. and of course, the issue all between the in general, the front, the support in areas where they are. and of course, the whole country did a deal with several strikes in different areas. and then suddenly i've been working

here in the pile on here and before leaving. and, you know, the law says it's known somebody, i guess what, i'm the show, which is a non 7 on an area that has nothing to do. if we want to go see, is really the finishing out for areas next. how lucky to do that on the aspect to love is always been attacking their name. the doors who are being killed off oxygen is the number of civilians that's been killed over the past days is not here on 750 in just 3 days. i know god knows how many were killed and that i couldn't do that or you can play smell in booth. i'm inside them and all the cities. let's go live now to rose in jordan in washington, dc rose to the bottom. ministration has repeatedly, we want, it doesn't want to see a wide regional conflagration,

as have been any response yet from the us. on. these ran the escalation overnight on the lebanese capital to what we heard earlier from the you as president joe biden. as he was getting to his weekend home and delaware, he told the pool reporting called team that the us did not have a heads up. that this latest is railing error offensive was going to be carried out and that the administration was trying to get more information. he also did say to the pool reporting team that he wanted the us military to make certain that its assets in the greater middle east were a sufficiently, b stop as it were, to protect us interests in the region. and the president also told reporters that he wanted to make certain that security us embassies across the middle east had been shored up. but there hasn't been any comment in the our, since the president made those remarks. it's also worth pointing out that the

defense secretary lloyd austin said during a live television interview that he had spoken to the israeli defense minister, you'll have dialogue during this error strike. but often also struck that he had not been given any advance warning that this air strike on southern bayard was going to be carried out by the israelis and was how much pressure of his dad then on the us administration to use it's leverage to de escalate tensions, but at least 25 minutes to just something that i just us noted ceasefire, right? but anyway, to well, us officials will argue that they are doing all that. they can to try to prevent those from turning into a broader regional war. they also say that child in light of the fact that they have a teamed up with frogs and with other european countries to try to push through a new 21 day ceasefire between husband law and israel. that their efforts to try to keep this from spreading have not abated. now whether or not the us is willing to

go so far as to pull a military funding for israel, or to take out other diplomatic punishments on israel. is the big question so far the us has not been willing to go there except for the holding back of the delivery of the some of bob's earlier in this past summer during the conflict in gaza. ross, just a final thought to you because you were reminding us that the us selection of the us presidential election is now just weeks away. i was always playing optimistically in the us isn't a big deal. it's not as big of a deal as it might have been several months ago, and that's because people are much more focused now on the reasons why they would want to choose either the sitting vice president cala harris or the former president. donald trump. they're looking at economic issues. they are looking at immigration, they're looking at reproductive rights. those are the issues that us voters are now focused on as the early voting period starts here in the united states. there are

some voters, particularly in the swing state of michigan that consider what is happening between israel and its neighbors, their top priority. but even some of those of voters are now coming out and saying that they are supporting vice president harris for the election in november. because they believe that she would have more leverage, more influence on israel than donald trump possibly would. in terms of trying to resolve these conflicts, all right to, i'll just say it was, was children that live for us in washington dc rose. thank you. let's bring in a ahmed, he's a seen a different market correspondent for the huffington post, even covering the un general assembly and joins us live from washington dc. i thought good to have you back with us. i know you've been watching events unfold. uh, from where you are there in washington. how significant is this escalation, overnights on very what's behind is well stepping up its attacks in this way. i think it says a means

a message being sent right now about the us on his capacity to read in israel. i think given that after you and we have us officials at a very high, a level, you know, meeting the kinds of thoughts, meeting with people who are these kind of the regional mediations and things look like going prevent traditional or leave it to us. that degree of phase and file shot that and i think you have sufficient funds even given to you that in the last 48 hours by timing nothing yahoo. walking back from a sci fi proposal, the proposed, you know, then kind of be in new york, giving a speech. and at that very moment, having the final i just, i just really encourage folks to, to zoom out a little bit after one year out of a few of the october from pox. and the one that followed with us support seen so many of the top 10 that we saw in, in us policy inventory. and so we want to be out already 11 on right. whether you really do something by giving you the occupational to so it will be fine. we are very cast reflecting on target your professional have known for months now that

from the cities is a smoke screen and they haven't been able find that proof of it. so the fact that they're already submitting it to happen, i think it's quite scary and unable come back to hold them. yeah. yeah. and them and lives the contradiction above because the us administration has repeatedly said it doesn't want to see a wider war, but it continues to, um, is rarely anyway, but it doesn't seem to be using it's leverage of israel to stop one. so where do you think the diplomatic effort has failed when you've been monitoring the un general assembly now for the last week where how's the diplomacy fail? yeah, i see. i'm just, i, i think so many of us who uh, you know, watching and talking to the us special to engaging with fund delegation by with surprise. is that what's the degree of confidence even up to me, to me through, to be, you know, in the, i really was a sense that given the sense of these around the selection given the fact about the body and investigate kind of off to the 7th. the city hall just on home, there's no solution for got that right. that's so huge buffering involving happening in the office. does it us really want to commit another what's happened?

i see the focus right now. my advocate is going to be on kind of sending a signal through contrasts, given the present 5, we have shown, he won't budge that either full coming up in the van the right off for the presidential election way. and then we'll be able to say, look, we don't want to send us back and read us jet fuel is infection. no, that's a lot of kind of waste it true, which these really f for relies on the us. and there's a lot of leave us present 5, you could post all that could be, i think if i present, harris and hert advisors are a stream the worry about pro israel group turning on them. and by that the factor that will be on present biden's mind called risk and push it right. the rest of the thought team push and i think as it's actual goes up, we don't even know yet how many people were killed in this tried today. that was talking to fill up the be a real democracy by not going into another situation of 40000 people. ted with us to be both on those bonds. us check fuel american seen that's caught who we as

a country wants to be. so i think that will be the question in the next week from us. let's just talk about them as well as war items. if they have any on, is there any leaders talk about escalating de escalate talk bob? but this met with the escalation to him, and you've seen what's happened over night in lebanon. does israel seed has been as an opportune time to go off the has blog once and for all? i think most of the mistake and the rosy picture i've heard from is really is that also kind of spoke close to that is, if we can, it belongs to this extent. right now we can convince domestic population that they don't see footprint from his beloved. and we can resolve these very political crisis, right? because that is pressure within israel, tens of thousands of people out of that hole out a few minutes. but i talk in the very bottom and can go back and say, look, we killed the head of it, but we really kind of decapitated them. you are at risk. maybe that needs attention . all. they've got to say that hinges on and it's really government that is interested in ending the war and what we know throughout finance investment at

yahoo funds over the last year is that he doesn't want time to watch it. really tell us that. so i think that's not rosalie because it is sort of not very realistic in terms of it's pretty williams. and even though what i've heard been times of, of best case scenario or most hopeful view is that it has the laptop, some really kind of serious feel safe saving deal for the readings and everyone walks away. i don't know if that's possible off kind of getting the lead up. yeah. as well as we're talking to you, we're seeing the latest pictures here. have another massive strike somewhere in the root. and we've, we've been showing these as strikes throughout the night. but then it was intense and in the last hours as they were a few as before. but nonetheless, that still happening, even as we talk a final thoughts you then all these strikes a prelude to a ground invasion. and then what happens next is it is rep binding to re occupied southern level. or what does it stop in terms of mills pre capability at this moment? i think it's very,

very hard from the very perspective to imagine sending the young troops, many of them exhausted, many of them really 5 this having operate in the past where they don't know how to operate. because something is reoccupied. those that are not as a huge off, it's specially when potentials in the occupied by bank are extremely high as well. i icon in the vision, a re occupation could i see some degree of a, of a driving vision that targets, particularly helpful. that's like, perhaps, but getting is i've had tons fighting, reading the through the that tool, dr. political gambling. but i think i'm going to send that and yahoo will be reading the castle about. i think we're more than that. he really wants to be able to say, look, i in the last yeah, that's the truck, the massive i struck the roots. i've truck who left the house and left the law. i've talked to her on stick all this money out of her mouth. that's kind of more to political check. something jingle is sick message. i think that yahoo is looking at 6 boxes. the id right now. all right, so um it always good to have you here on. i was just there off. well, thank you very much indeed for your time and your analysis. the right time for

a short break here. and i'll just here, when we come back, we'll have continuing coverage of the massive is ready strikes on pharaoh southern sometimes, which are the thoughts of the city funding for more and that statements the color we're looking get to a tropical systems coming. they can fost into houston pots, so such a patio say one goes out. so the way it comes, the next one. unless gonna push this way up towards a similar area, not quite making the land full so that some saving grace. and what, why the, the, to the eastern side of haunt you for a time. much of japan will actually be fine and your wife a little on the humid side is fine and dry. they have been to the korean peninsula a lot. and of course, a good part of china. let's move into a sunday. you can see about what the weather,

the next system that's going to push this way up. as a said towards a similar area. still some showers just cling onto the east coast of homes. you, i'm asked somebody to watch out what we got into the pothole next week, and of that some very wet weather will make his way in across northern areas of china pushing into central pos just moved to something else developing just to the south. the us just moving away from the philippines at present. so that's the developing tropical storm as well. said they are coming thick and fast. know them areas of the philippines, things and where i live, the shower as long as spells of right as a pretty strong winds. so whether to just around them, light peninsula into some, entre still some evaluate whether it's in northern parts of india into the pool that should ease this weekend. the, the is really forces seek to silence the truth. finley occupied westbank, storming and shutting down houses 00 in romano. the truth must be protected and

hurt and the stories of real people must be told. this is not just that a task on journalism. it's an attack on the world's right to know. journalism is not of coolant or pressing it is the latest news as it freaks. it's clear from the opening speeches here at this un general assembly that world leaders are focused on their urgency of the now with detailed coverage for lumpkins have voted in one of the most critical elections in this country is history for the chose with shape its future from around the world se expired, expired in august since then there has been an escalation in military operations against the rebels. the.
