6:05 pm
2023. the group suffers losses after months of cross border fighting. and this is really a tax that targeted significant figures in the movement. but not sola remained defiant. he has been described as the personification of hezbollah. and while the group is organized and unified, a leadership change is unlikely to have a wide ranging implications. but it's last the commander who was covers matic and whose influence extended far beyond lifting on. well, we have a team of correspondents covering every angle of this story. this now we have a side begging the baton valley. this is an east and lebanon. i'm to sell who is enjoying this capital online. we also have target, i will assume in central gaza. bye to call hey, and we'll give us all the reaction from washington 1st. so let's be to all the hash him he is in bay route for us. and ali tell us more about the sort of influence
6:06 pm
that it has on us for our law had in that country. how was he viewed by lebanon's share community was maria, how sudden us or law was very influential. he's not, he's not the 1st is not the personality what. that's what i see only as a posse leader. you know, for the past 32 years. the everyone who is in, in his thirty's and his forty's, you are highlighted as well as the lead off his beloved, also in different phases of his life in the summer lost his son in 1997. when he was around 37 years and a dock time, he gained a lot of credibility because his son watkins shooting the fight with this with a few years he became the leader of the nation. when is red, withdrew from south 11 on the 2000. then 2006,
6:07 pm
he was the leader of the victory as the app or trade him after the 2006 or so these are different phases and then that's all i became part of the internal living. he's gotten sick, the policy can conflict 11 on with people against him and people instead with him. he became a controversial figure. this added on with this, the conflict and c area and then the fall i became regionally a controversial figure. some regionally is seen as the leads of the access of resistance, the one that is backed by iran. he has a lot of influence in see if we have any rocks in force 11 on human. and of course, with strong relation strategic relations with the probably about the same functions such as him, us at the stomach, he has, he has his presence. so the in general is for, for many and 11 on i in the region is not on the block. you need to see is it carries methics,
6:08 pm
influential personality that got active. that's too many is because i live and i, i'm curious as to the general mood perhaps along so many numbers of has belie the domestic constituency. this who lived out of beloved tim around. but at the same time, what are you hearing about whether this is fueling the appetite for that to be some such a robust response? well, the fact is that such an assistant ation came in the middle of a conflict for wool. so it's rather didn't just it hit how sudden a fell off, but without a context of the war. that is a war. if game is to stock, the southern solve of a who killed him along with several offers commanders now with knowing of many names, including some uranian. uh, some of you ring in general is uh, uh, the, the, the, the i r g c for forced come on de 11 on demand who succeed the general inside us
6:09 pm
given the uranium consulate in damascus. few months ago was also kids with the fella. and this attack, so there are many names because we're hearing some uh gunshots to this. i think this is part of people's reaction to the salt staff. many people went through the streets. you were asking me about the mood. many people came to the streets of the southern, solve up in kind of demonstrations and kind of show and making a small funeral. is that trying in the streets? it's a, it's a very emotional situation for many people, especially those who thought of the front lives that here as a leader, as a person who is defending them over the past year, as, as someone who liberated their own line, those people think that the now are losing just instrumental in
6:10 pm
the whole life are but is, there is a, there are many operatives, there are many come on. does they that as well, has suffered pretty high death toll along its leadership in the past week. but they will be organizing themselves to around a success. it's not strong. absolutely. now this is not the 1st time that they had it has the law is using a very senior come on in 2008. i might move in a year was thought to be mr. has will law, this is how he was for traits. was us as an agent in damascus. and of course, it was very huge, you know, for has will last but there what able to adapt to the situation. 1992, when says well, when the has on this on the roads to from inside, everyone knew him came after the assassination of another minute through interest expressed to be general was our best and most are on bus. and it was that we was at kids by his red also in 1992 in february 1992. i want start then to be betty got
6:11 pm
his i'm, i think i'm very influential. and one of the founding members later on, it's happened that how setting us on that became his successor on the front of became a solar that's we know, over the years now has relies in front of it draw, strode and who is going to be the successor. class on the farther many names, including say that yourself are you being the head of the executive, john? so it offers a lot, but this is of course, again, is something that is going to be announced by default to you. but the issue here, i don't want to take a lot of time, but the issue, yeah, is that with the smallest, seen by many, even among his rivals, anatomy is as a russian to lead up. those who are going to come to succeed him could be i could have a different uh, direct direction, a different approach, especially that they are coming to revenge for that historical leader. okay, thank you. ali ashan reporting to us from bayard, or let's just take
6:12 pm
a look at the attack itself. and the type of weaponry of it is believed to have been used to kill said has on us for our law. is really need here is saying about 85. so called bunker boss to bombs will use also known as ground penetration. munition is ms. how's borrow deep into the ground before they detonate? they have the pound to destroy on the ground facilities and reinforced concrete buildings. the bones h way between 901800 kilograms. they can penetrate 13 each has of us or 6 meters of concrete, and also create shock waves that can collapse all the structures. the geneva conventions, outlaws the use of these bones in densely populated areas due to the risk of mass and indiscriminate casualties. to have with me now alex could topless his out is there is defense editor. and so alex, for all the significance of this assassination leader of hezbollah,
6:13 pm
this was fall from a targeted precision strike that tell us more about the, the sort of weaponry that israel used to carry out this attack in a civilian area. yes, a highly built up civilian area, so it hold on all the munitions drop these days of precision guided. but when you drop level mass, especially in highly built up areas, not to give you an idea, would it be? was $85.00 weapons. that's 85000 kilograms of explosive dropped on an area the size of a city block within a few seconds of each other. each bomb has a killed radius of 33 meters, so it means anything within the 33 me to radius is going to die and you just dropped 85 of them. now i know it's in the height of an environment, so yes, extreme destructive power that we're probably going to see again. and what does all this tell us about israel's intelligence information gathering capacity about hezbollah? it's that it's comprehensive, is comprehensive,
6:14 pm
most of his beloved and leadership has been killed. the rest are in hiding in such a deep way that they're probably ineffective as c'mon does. and you can see from the pages mass assassination, assassination attempt. but you know, thousands of people were main dawson's kills. i'm the hezbollah operatives as well . so they know who they are. they know how to get them. they know how to reach them when they do clearly, all bets are off now that every single member of his beloved leadership is being targeted for fascination. oh, thank you very much that alex can helpless alger there as a defense added to speaking to us that all. now israel has continued as strikes on a route on the side today, off to the killing of us on us for all of these are some of the latest pictures from lebanon's capital west. several residential areas has been hit again, again, mainly in the densely populated southern suburbs that's really been the focus of his riley attacks. now military officials are saying that they have killed 2 more
6:15 pm
has bullet colanda is in the strikes as bringing home to sell who to live for us from amman. jordan, because these riley government is found out as they are from of forcing inside. israel wants our official saying i'm done as well. there's been a lot of reaction from is really officials these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has yet to speak. but he has arrived back in israel from new york where he was speaking at the un general assembly, and you'll recall that he had approved the strike on bay do. it's for the assassination of has enough at a loss from his hotel room. so let's have you all who is currently on his way to the queue. the that's his real defense ministry. intel would be for security consultation. we've been hearing a lot from israel's defense minister. you'll have guidelines as well, who says there's still a lot of work to be done against his by law and also from the army, chief of staff who said that israel is actually not going to rest until his bola is destroyed. this is the 1st time we're hearing this kind of rhetoric. previously,
6:16 pm
we knew that these relays have wanted to return those evacuated is really back to those northern townsend settlements as part of their goal, which is why they had escalated this conflict with his beloved. but now they're saying they want to destroy the lebanese entirely. israel's foreign minister has said that the killing of how sudden us at all invaded with was justified and deserved within the is really political and security realm. they're all saying that having a fella was a huge enemy for israel, and now the world can be a little bit safe for now, but he has been killed. but the most important thing to remember here is that the army is saying that their attacks are going to continue, and that they are now alert on all fronts, saying that there are challenging days ahead. they've even changed the directives in the home front command. those are the security measures that are given to the public by the states across central israel gatherings have now been limited in work places and schools outdoors, etc. and even just within the last hour, you had
6:17 pm
a surface to surface missile that was launched from young men by the food these into central israel. the army said that it was intercepted, but the sirens had went off in tel aviv advocate. he always miss. and y'all was currently holding, she is a security consultation. so there is still a long ways ahead. as israel said that this is not over and the site is going to continue. thank you very much. i'm the sell hood for 14 to is from a mine in jordan, and i'm now joined by akiva elder, a political analyst, and contribute to the daily is ready to pay for hire. it's, he's with us from tel aviv. and so can i ask you, is a plan taking shape by a on the part of his riley officials, perhaps one that will be carried out between now and the american election. and i believe that as long as we don't hear a clear message from the white house, i'm gonna tell you,
6:18 pm
i will not stall because of the pressure that is coming from his daughters in the coalition right now is much greater than the international pressure left alone then even from the opposition, you can't hear any kind of criticism, even the leader of the label to the left part of the uh, the democrats. yeah. it goes on. uh, and that was getting uh, you know, a full clearance to carry out the operation. and uh, he even was only back to the i a good i told him it goes ceasefire a few days ago. so he needs to answer these ready? probably why do to stop now? the army is ready to continue is why it has a full control exclusive control on the aerospace they keep doing more they can do
6:19 pm
because nobody stops them. and there is no exit strategy m i m. if you're asking, what's these riley strategy for the day off the, let's say that we eliminate the entire leadership of the feasible. do we eliminate the she already the idea, the iranian proxies. and so it can, i cannot awesome. can you just mention a, just from the point you've made? do you think that israel on the stands, it's opponent and how it is that they operate and, and how they are likely to respond in a situation like this? as much as it seems as though they've been weakened and degraded. there is a very kind of specific um, audiology at play as well. or if you do certain might have carefully to the measures that is coming out from the white house. directed it to the wrong, asking them to keep out. so in the game,
6:20 pm
it's also their website to is right. and we suspect that later on, you know, is interested in pushing you to run into the arena and using this opportunity to attract you of a to drag and united states enjoy. read your notes is low and other well, the daniel has failed, as we know when he couldn't based pressure from our president drugs to get out of the and you'll get a agreement. he has failed and he was never so close to the ball. so he can know, declare victory. okay, so i'm curious to know, i'm curious to know about is writing public opinion and all of this as well. because that seems to be a consensus. and a sense of, there is a kind of celebration that this war has been waged on on lebanon, but it is, that was on acknowledgement that nothing yahoo and going to this cabinet,
6:21 pm
these are all the same people that failed to keep them safe. on october the 7th, and he's all the same people who have failed to bring back the hostages from gaza is actually later on the the also is a new question. what they really want. those is to forget the blunder of october 7th. we are reaching the 1st anniversary we are getting every day, more footage from the these are the networks about the blunder that's brought the desk of 1500 is ready and we still haven't told him why that is why i kept this and what they want is to forget it, and there is nothing strong good that is such a big majority, a high profile, and you for you. um and uh, you know, even the uh, weekly demonstrations of a sudden the evenings were canceled because, you know,
6:22 pm
the idea is wanting goes uh from a tax wouldn't gammon over my bed. so what they want and they succeed. it is to reach this consensus as we saw this week, you know, is getting back to maybe 2526 weeks and the classes after he went on the 20. so for him it's a big success. all right. and frankly, these way the media is cooperating with this a for your beautiful images and who cares about live bernice refugees as long as we have oh refugees from the nose. and that doesn't have an answer for them. no, no, going back there in the near future. well, i do appreciate you taking the time keith. it's important for us to know what is happening there as well. keep the elder who is i'm speaking to his desk from tel aviv. we want to move now to east and 11, and because as well as military says,
6:23 pm
it's conducted thousands of as strikes and the become valley. the latest struck a vehicle in the city. exactly. and central, because alia, israel said targeted has, well, a weapon stored facilities. and miss our launch sites for chit chat on social media shows that a deep cry to in the ground often strikes on the town of b. i'm doing that speak to as a bank who is there in east and 11 and for us. and we have seen in recent days, outside to an expansion of is riley raids to now covering they've gone into east another and how fearful of people that we could see a similar attack to the one that struck by route last night. well, people are considered to be fearful. you. people have already been displaced internally here in the back of valley and spain. the intense day of bombing by is red on the back of valley. the early this morning we had the across the had been striking that
6:24 pm
fall from i am now is run 3 kilometers roughly. and we felt the shockwave from those striking that in the face cold, almost on has that. so just to back to become just behind me, but all around because they have been strikes taking place and i could just run up the list of the tons of really just i've been hit to my shot semester, teddy on set free the batch that the cut off the head over becca, in fact, and when you speak to people that considerably fearful they don't know when the strikes are going to happen, and they don't know where they are going to take place, is that we understand a vehicle. he was struck in the 1st time that, that city of that time and the center of it has been hit in the show that they, we understand that there was a striking a year on as well as all these places. now, for the very 1st time experiencing those exactly strikes and people are really fearful about it. really intensifying here in the east of the country. why specific they might be, he's right,
6:25 pm
needs to be focusing on this area. it wasn't because it is between the loved ones, eastern 19 range and west, then it neighbors onto syria. so israel believes that to his beloved has many strongholds within becca, but also use these roots from syria over to the branches get to weapons across the board. so as well it wants to target those. israel also believes that the west point that pose an orange sites here in the east of living on. so they want to target those. but they also like parts of the called the strong colts full has been gone. now is where i just talked to the leadership is targeting the, the kind of foot sold does. and the size of it will say, wants to target the many layers of his blog, which is a political, a social, and a military force. as a part of a tactic that israel is using to try and put pressure on has been lost. now they have assassinated the leads of his beloved. but now what it seems like they doing
6:26 pm
is trying to displace people in turning the around $500000.00 people have been displaced across lebanon since the start of this conflict that us about 8 percent of the country's population and what that does, it will pressure it puts pressure on his life, puts pressure on the lebanese government and the infrastructure of this country and trying to force uh, his block. you agree to some sorts of possible deal? okay, thank you very much. as i'd say we're putting to is from the because highly am eastern lab in a way we have seen more is riley as strikes. and of course, i've been continued attacks on lebanon's capital as well. and this is making life much more difficult for people who have already been forced from that homes. many living in bay route southern starbucks. they have to spend the night outside because of the heavy is riley bombardment. hundreds of thousands of people have already fled, intends as strikes in the south, and also also now in the east of the country dosage. avari brings us the latest on this now from

6:33 pm
israel onto the killing of an australia. you release this statement saying the face of this region will be decided by the resistance forces with hezbollah at the head . the people of lebanon have not forgotten once upon a time when the la tree of the stuffing regime used to occupy all the way to bay root. it was, it has belong, console, fair leg, and made 11 and proud. it's a good tree for old listings to stand proudly with the people of lebanon and has been law with that resources and help them confront the usa pain cool and evil regime on that, that is the statement from supremely to ali human eye. but i've seen it wrong and come on to was also killed in that strike that targets headmaster, iowa. iranian state media or is identified, the colanda is brigadier general, i boss in full share on and now a veteran of he's a veteran actually of the world between iran and iraq. i'm was the commander of operations. the revolution regards for lebanon and syria. i'm a 9 d is
6:34 pm
a political analyst at the university of tat ronnie joins is from bailey, is that we've been speaking about the effect this is likely to have on has belong, but as much as it's delta blood to the group, this has also been just as much an attack on iran itself. yeah, absolutely. ronald consider as a, as well uh, how much slot making sure hod, i'm sorry a lot and yeah, man and the resistance in iraq and syria, all of them to be brothers and arms and the rotten ends will have been making sacrifices in the war as we've seen in the past sentence, we'll probably see in the weeks ahead, but this is what the right hands believes to be. the only way for this is randy
6:35 pm
regime must be defeated. it is a genocidal regime. yesterday, i was roughly a 1000 meters away from where the initial strides happen, where the assassinated general. so the general, i say about something nice for a lot and a number of uh, apartment towers were fine. and i think hundreds of people, maybe 300, someone said, or killed women and children. i know that neighborhood because even if you're there for a year, when i was here on my sabbatical, they're all ordinary people living more than a lives all destroyed is. and i've never seen such a thing, you know, i thought in the war i went to the website that mercedes on impose on the run. and i find it very intense panels. i've never seen such a focus drive on a small area and it's being a civilian market in the ninety's tonight. can i also ask out no,
6:36 pm
i understand you are there and they root and you have experience living and in the area where they had talked to pace. i'm also also curious to know your thoughts about how iran might handle this now because we just, we just citing that statement from the supreme leader and is very much a statement of defiance. but nonetheless, israel is succeeding in degrading and weakening wrongs most powerful allies in the region. how, how will they be viewing this and, and calculating that strategy. now, you know, i don't think sensible is uh, being degraded or it's, it's well capabilities are being degraded in any big way. most of us military capabilities, almost overwhelming. we are deep underground throughout the country. they have thousands of kilometers underground panels. uh,
6:37 pm
are we seeing guys i do see much more and much more extensive away and let her know and they exist throughout the south. and central 7 on a route has always been a week spot because all the western embassies on bay road, all the western intelligence agencies that are supporting this wrong. these aren't bailed. you have western drawings fine over in science, right offline, alongside the training, as in gaza. trying to help this reading, these carry out their minds occurs and saw that you have all these western n g o as in that, but not a focus and be with many of them the what, what do you think? what about the view along ste at hezbollah? numbers, because they, they will be questioning why that hasn't been a more forceful response on the part that has blah, you know, maybe there is a rationale as a self preservation that, but there must also be a disappointment, or perhaps even a sense of abandonment that iran hasn't done more to defend them. what do you think?
6:38 pm
i, i don't think either are true and it has for a long day in my opinion. they delayed their response for the last couple of weeks or they didn't ask right. as far as the way they did this, riley was even because they wanted to keep the call up and drop it on on board. and they want to make sure that the international community is siding with. let me know . i mean, the, the resistance of the policy of the access of resistance is to respond to escalations not to escalate before this ran the regime. they want to make sure that this rapid genocide behavior is rarely regime whether in casa or 11 on or elsewhere, is seen for what it is in the western governments and their media. and their leads are not able to turn the tables. so now with what this might be was name is donna, they have shown the world that the walkout and the un just with the general
6:39 pm
assembly was the right thing to do. and if things should more pressure but should be put on his writing machine. and now i think the hands of has blogs are tied because they can head back without anyone complaining any wrong to will escalate. the leader said that he ron and will make sure that you will enjoy the resistance to collect the resistance in your mind and the rock and syria and the gaza and the west bank. they were and all of them collectively. iran, of course, being done the motor behind is they will make sure that they is really regime is defeated and it has the law will succeed in beating back any aggression on his territory. all right, well what profess them out on the thank you very much, will that will leave it that, but thank you for joining us. the from a root has been all the reaction in the region from from us. they have said that they all morning, the death of the house on us for our law. they released a statement as well for or using his support set of palestinian people. they say,
6:40 pm
he insisted on continuing the heroic front of attribution to help people that now resistance and the looks of flood despite the greatness of the sacrifices and the enrollment fee of the challenges until he was eliminated amount, who was on the same supportive approach of the policy and people, and that value and resistance, well topic i will assume is live for us and narrow by and central guns that can you tell us more about that reaction from last. but also, if the war in lebanon is having any impact on the way the war is being carried out in gaza. 12 and it's absolutely clear. and categor places he is full palestinians, that destination or pass on this role is a key grounding, a ground. it's a shifting step, being taken by these really sides, which is aiming to inflame, but tension more and more inside benefit of these territories on palestinians here
6:41 pm
believe that the course of action is made by isabel in liberty. not only for extending the age of this rule because simply these very prime minister benjamin netanyahu has refused previously the difference of proposals for us east by a deal machine to buy regional the gates as due to multiple reasons related to these very military persons in gauze and now the bottle is moving to the another in front of it is about which is living on. and since the past couple of weeks, the, it's been a minute to has been exacting more. russia on has been lost a by it carrying out different heavy and v flows for the independent organizations, palestinians. he has been talking to them that you say you, that as long as i live in on is still engaged in the fight. i think it's quite very difficult to reach a ceasefire deal because regional mediators won't be able to de escalate the situation as long as it's been a so interested to treat with the so called secure and safe zone insight to defend
6:42 pm
these territories. and um, it also moved as well as reports about a fed that preparations by the is what it all makes for a potential ministry, inc hudgens encouraging for the the pennies to lambs. and this is absolutely apollo to bump bump indians have been saying. and also they confirmed that the goal of a strip now is an area which is controlled and bound inhibited by these, by our meeting, the arc they are trying to prevent any one to return back to the north. and they continue to bombard this trip without any sort of response without a new source, or if it changes the military tactics even district is on the, on the ground. okay, thank you very much tank i was in, and darrell by law in central casa, joining me in the studio now is cells and bar katya is a professor of public policy at how i've been. how do you see any of us here in doha? good. see, professor think so, what about the israeli government? what, what are they likely to do now? are they going to press their advantage as well?
6:43 pm
nothing. yeah, it could take one or 2 actions of possibilities. one of them is to continue fighting and trying to do with the hezbollah. what he thinks is doing to how much of that is to go for dismantling the movement, running after every weapon they have and the massages that they're hired to use on . uh, that's just one option. the other option would probably be much more strategic and to the benefit of his ro is now just to bank this as a technical when and go back to the negotiations and the mediations run seeking a political solution. the american invoice, amos hooks them just before this sticky took place a day or 2 before that he had already a kind of an agreement with the lebanese and has by law and to some extent to the iranians, the not to as well to try and settle the issue with the, with the evidence. so nothing now can now turn to that and say, well, we really still are into,
6:44 pm
we are still interested in some kind of resolution. i would go back to the negotiation. this would be incredibly important, for example, in relation to what's going on because of the hostages. if not, then, you know, which was as the 1st option, and that's just to continue with his war most likely until the american elections. because now he feels as good as few weeks of freedom. then he would have a really good judged and, and lost those hostages, a 101 hostages dish. oh, so how does, hasn't he do you think that showed himself prepared to uh, to face that even if it brings thousands and thousands of his right to. so here's what i'm saying with them say because i think people around him should put the pressure on him now because i don't think he can gain more than he did up to this point. and the reaction to retaliation from his villa is very likely to be similar to what you're on did on the 13th of april, the 13th of april, april,
6:45 pm
and the like no retaliation was an orchestra to put too much of a retaliation. they were given a lot of notice as a draft. now i think emotionally, hezbollah fighters, those who lost their leader, and those who have suffered so much over the last few days, must feel that they are they. how does a lot of the for matt, dave, anticipate in this say, saw officer what has happened? i think so. i was use fire. i think they will. they would be some pressure put on them to go back to, to the ideal. she's fine. but the retaliations against nothing. yeah. he's just to continue and before you think how i was talking it, oh, this seems fine. it talks, i mean, i guess, i mean he could, he could talk to everyone until he's blue and blue in the face. you know, these, these right of the americans can continue paying lip service to get their assets to achieve this, these 5. but i guess if, if, if nothing, yahoo is using all of this the, the, the war and gods of the war and 11,
6:46 pm
and possibly regional to, to strengthen his position in domestic politics is that there's nothing to be done . is that well, is the strengthening much his position is strengthening it amongst his followers. but the, there is a very clear opposition to him within his ro. and i think what's happened with him diplomatically the united nation yesterday is also significant. he has turned his rental highest date. it's very unlikely that he will be able to come back to power based on a fairly election within as well. so it's just about extending his time in office. i think most likely until the end of that medicine election, do you think a ground incursion into that there and there's a more distant prospect now then the yes you think, given the experience is right, has had in 1982 all the way to to 1000 be very foolish to try and go on the ground . but the cost for the avenues, if they don't do a good, an invasion is that they will continue with their as strikes,
6:47 pm
which is pretty random at this stage. and they have hips many, a christian religious in the south that doesn't have nothing to do with hezbollah. and like you to continue to do that s. and indeed those communities themselves have spoken out about this. but thank you very much, professor sell to embark out for joining us. the and so as we've been reporting that have been more strikes on lebanon's capital earlier on saturday, zayna holder centers this update from a route southern suburbs on what she found when she was assessing the situation that the bombardment of the neighborhoods in bay route southern suburbs continue, you can see behind me the smoke of this is a residential area. hundreds of thousands of people live here over night because of the intense environment. many, many people made their way out of this area and they still are trying to make their way out of this area. we understand from people's that the, during the night this was very difficult for them to leave because of the of the,
6:48 pm
the, the strikes a baby with southern suburbs is now part of the equation. when israel launch the wife scale air assault on, on, has well as the on, in areas where has the, has the presence of this house in the east of the country. they, with southern suburbs was largely out of the equations that has now changed. so the situation is very tense. the people here are telling us that they believe that this is just the beginning, and that's why you see people carrying suitcases, whatever they can to leave the area of time and time again, we can hear the sound of as verified through just in the skies. so this is, this is, this is a war. we have been reporting 11 months of the fighting between hezbollah and israel. but now we are definitely in a new phase, it appears that this is, as well as stated objective or more objective to return residents to the north of the countries. and that has the health is firing. that seems to be,
6:49 pm
that has changed if, if it's clear from israel's action in the past week or so. now this is more about this story has the law and this is what people here are saying and the stuff now to strike later on uh, late yesterday where we saw multiple explosion, smoking tools strikes that level, at least 6 to 7 residential buildings. of that massive explosion really was a tipping point, and that's what led to this new mass, the displacement some, some people still, you know, with the victory sign showing their steadfastness. but the people also told me that this is very, very different than what they with us in the last 4 in 2006, they're saying that this is much, much more into the for their own baby. so then suburbs bought to kind joins us live now from washington and putting what is the, the nature of the conversation in washington about the assassination of
6:50 pm
a sudden us for all on whether it could trigger a much wider regional is really there's been no official come from a conversation we've not heard from us president joe biden, he's in his seat house in robust delaware. the only statement we've had so far is a readout of 2 phone calls from lloyd austin, a u. s. secretary of defense to his counterpart. you kalonde. we knew that austin spoke yesterday with the launch. the us tried to use that to say look, we really didn't plan this. we didn't know if this was going to happen. saying that austin, secretary austin was on the phone with a lot as the operation was taking place. so now we have a read out of another phone call. apparently that happened yesterday. so again, this isn't new. this isn't since we've had confirmation of the death of mister all uh, but the statement is if, if it is holes, it's going to show that the us is not for it to change tack. there's literally
6:51 pm
absolutely no criticism of israel in the statement. it says the secretary expresses full support for israel to were defend itself. the us has determined to prevent it around and around, back per partners and proxies from explaining the situation and more in the us is capable of protecting its facilities and forces in the region. so this is really the 1st indication of where the vitamin mysteries is going to come down on this. perhaps not a surprise to anyone who's been following the situation. if you think about the red lines and the different markers, the us has under the bite immunization consistently back israel, more than 41000 debt in gaza, humanitarian aid not being allowed in which should have triggered a u. s. law that prevents some shipments to israel, but they said that israel wasn't keeping him out of the hearing aid in the killing of the hamas political leader in around the killing of the leaders of hamas in
6:52 pm
love. and on the x, an unprecedented explosion, exploding of pages and walkie talkies indiscriminately throughout loving on we have not seen the binding. mr. ations really do anything publicly or within westwood shipments to try and ran into ran. there was one point where the president said he's gonna keep that 2500 pound bonds. he eventually gave it and, and gave them the $500.00 pound box. all right, thank you, bye to call in and washington. joining me now is elders are a senior police got on a smaller one, lashara enjoys me now from london, and on has been a lot of conversation about the direction developments in the region could take from here it was a israel will see this as a tactical strategic victory for now, whether it could trigger something much more dangerous. what does it does? it says he is writing 5 minutes to sort of purposes to,
6:53 pm
to keep the region on the brink of an all out will. well the thing is that now that nathaniel is back in this room and the probably the reading president is also his way best when the discussions are actually is talking about what's next. this seems to be on hold waiting desire on the part of these res, both establishments and society, to continue with the 111 on and to do 2 things. first of all, to finish up to finish all as well. not completely, whatever that means. i'm to, to create enough of a, she's in between as muller and the other unions to suspend the limit needs to sign the or the news state. and i think they want to do see that as an opportunity now, or they believe that they have uh, it will, did. they have to shift away at the as well as capability, and this is no time for a ceasefire. this is no time to step back, but rather this is the time to double down and attack more or more until
6:54 pm
certainly most of the rocket launchers are destroyed. this is their approach, but of course they also try and look at what does this really mean regionally within your, on a song as well. this is actually mean original as they should, what are on other allies in the region and ship it and then go in and will distribute to come. i'd be generalized what, what does this really mean also for this relationship with the united states. so there's a whole number of, uh, you know, moving targets as it were in the region as my understanding. she's thus far. and despite what i've heard on this program and other programs by uranian commentators and i notice that i think you want as much interest in direct competition with as right. it's not interested in reading the war and that the new president that you're on, as well as the premium stablish, my and i would say even drawing in general with not for is not ready to pay any price for what's happening and live in on or palestine it might be,
6:55 pm
will continue to support it's all lines, but not at the risk of everything and national interest. and as much as this will be betrayed as a great victory by the israelis and the americans. how important is it to remember that the roots and the survival of hezbollah has never depended on 19? i as well. the thing is that it's not just one. now. the thing is that now over the last 2 weeks, it's been a series of successful submission. ready uh, i guess has been the leaders and the during that time there was that successful attack on as well as military and their supporters in the general society and up and on to the rigging and due to nathan of the communication devices.
6:56 pm
so what we're talking about something far more serious than that, then can i have some of my son in law, and the in by chance is huge. he's been leading for over 3 decades. he's really part of the uranium project and the region and his my law is it's cornerstone. so when is that is able to, within 2 or 3 weeks to get room significantly through the clinical has been the leaders and through the actual hit submit it, then send the bombings or it's, you know, with hundreds of it's uh, bases and so on. and so forth. that means this is a huge 6. i'm not saying there's a victory. i'm not saying this is a final defeat. it's a major step stuff, which is really, isn't themselves are probably starting now just like the reading is, are studying now to know or to see how to move forward. i think the 1st, the 1st thing that we're going to get caught up, this is to see how as well i was going to be out in the district. all that doesn't
6:57 pm
mean it's gonna react violently or emotionally, a bus. it could just continue with the same so called strategic patients or they, they could also, you know, reconsider what is it they're trying to do. all right for now long. thank you very much. perhaps we can continue this conversation of it later on out of their senior political unless we all continuing our coverage. we're bringing a reaction to an reaction on analysis to our breaking news story, the assassination of, as well as the to say, it has on us to our left. and this was in a series of massive strikes on a residential city blog in the favorite districts of da here just last night. but the strikes have continued today and they were, but also in the eastern part of the country. we will be back in a couple of minutes with an older reaction from 11 and who else would be looking at the international reaction to this news do stay with alger 0. we will also have
6:58 pm
a lot of analysis to be found on our website outages. era don't probably looking at the implications on this, not just fill evidence for the for the region of lodge the is really forces seek to silence the truth affinity occupied westbank storming and shutting down houses 00, and remote. the truth must be protected and heard. 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 journal. this is not a quote or pressing it to understand why we must experience life through now. designs discover the stories,
6:59 pm
7:00 pm
the quite fund has been supporting people's livelihoods, and over 100 countries, by funding projects in an array of sectors ranging from infrastructure to health and education. these initiatives ultimately help to eradicate poverty and promote sustainable development. the is declared, okay, we're taking you now the united nations general assembly where the russian pharmacist, gala roles is addressing wildly, does the cation certainly didn't stop the usa and the allies from getting the, then the to of george and the kind of success really in 2008 to our lesion on the aggression against the people also said to you and russian peacekeepers and the 3
