4:01 pm
a conflict between israel and the box. the protests in sali diety with palestinians, people gather in various cities across the world, from london to cape town in minnesota. and now they use the democratic republic of congo, a set to begin a vaccination campaign to contain an outbreak of the it's 13 g m t 4 pm in the lebanese capital. be able to where israel has significantly escalated is the tax. it has struck the densely populated 7 suburb of di, here with repeated as strikes. loud explosions can be heard and knowledge feelings of smoke seen across the board. these really military has destroyed civilian infrastructure, leveled residential buildings,
4:02 pm
and calls extensive damage in da. here. the lebanese health ministry says these really ami has kids more than 2000 people across 11 on. let's go straight to our dosage or barry who's joining us live from babe ruth doorstep bring us up to speed with what's been happening. and these latest, these really attacks in 11 on who and what have they targeted a well, according to reports, we're getting asked 5 for air strikes and less than an hour has been a taking place in the southern suburb area. and we know 2 neighborhoods are being target, is that the neighborhoods of how do i, how do you converge algebra, jeanette? now these are areas that are relatively close to the international airport, create roughly curry airports. and these air strikes are coming at a time when we understand paramedics, are trying to still dig out bodies from the the large explosion at that took place on friday morning. now with these re sense airstrikes,
4:03 pm
we believe our targeting, as anyone who's trying to assist the paramedics to get to the remains of high ranking cars, while a officials are commanders who have not been heard from since that friday, early friday morning attacks. what we, excuse me, what we're seeing now is a constant bombardment of once very densely populated area with nearly 700000 civilians living in the southern suburb of railroads. but it is clear that israel is on a mission and it is nothing will get in its way of trying to what it says is, a target is rarely commanders and the control center is within the suburb of the capital and how our civilians, 11 on an even be able to especially where you are dealing with this constant is really bombardment. many of them have been displaced, way have big going to and what sort of help bobby getting if and
4:04 pm
while the hell is coming really from park private citizens, many people in various different neighborhoods. the communities have that rolled up their sleeves turn to their businesses and their homes into shelter is to help the people that have been forced. many of them we've seen sleep along the beach here in bay roots along the coordination, living in their cars, and living in public spaces like parks and outside of mosques. this was the situation since over a week ago when the large a strike. it kills the secretary general has some natural love has the luck. it's been very, very difficult for people to return to their homes in the southern suburb after that's escalation by israel. so people here are still fearful that they are in shock, and they are worried where this concept is going. we have now over a 1000000 internally displaced lebanese not only in the capital, but also from the southern part of the country. so the government has done all this
4:05 pm
can really until now they've turned, or it's like hundreds of schools into shelters, but it's just not enough to meet the demands. people i've spoken to say that really we don't understand what is, is rails and gave what is their goal? if they think they can, this story has hold on. it's not possible. hezbollah is not a person, it's not an entity, it is an ideology. so really people are very concerned about where this conflict this heading door, so thank you very much. a great deal of concern, no doubt, 11 on dosage or battery life or say in be vote. and now for the view point from israel, stephanie deka is joining us and use our she's not in this row, butting them on jordan because he's really government has funds find out his ear from reports. and from there, stephanie, let's talk about what he's really media is reporting 1st, and that is a possible response to the reading an attack earlier this week. what is the feeding of israel ahead of, of that possible strike?
4:06 pm
yes, well the leadership is met and made it very clear that they will be striking back and they're going to strike back harshly. in fact, there was just an article now basically the way there of phrasing it is minimizing the risk and maximizing the opportunities. this is how the ministry echelons are looking at their targets. now, of course, benjamin engine, yahoo has always wanted to strike iran and eliminate its nuclear. but you know, system some of the, the americans are against just because of the complete escalation. this would cause funding. now, to give you a sense of how people are feeling, i'm going to read you a couple of the headlines in the is ready media today, and this is pretty much defeating across the country. there isn't division on this . people are very much behind striking or on striking hezbollah, striking him us, they, they don't want a war of attrition anymore. they want elimination. so basically saying the go on the nuclear, we are behind you, get them with all your force. so that is the concern is we wait
4:07 pm
a funny for israel's response, which we understand from the messages is going to just be a matter of time when they hit the wrong. stephanie, thank you very much for that stephanie decker live there in a mind. let's get the view point now from the us out in fisheries in washington, dc for a solid. what has the us been saying about a possible is really response to the a range and miss on the tax. and of course, they've been saying for a very long time, they don't want to see a wider war, but they acknowledge that they're perhaps closer than they happy to any point in the last year we had from joe biden on friday. he said that he didn't want the is released to be targeting any sort of the oil field facilities. now there's a reason for that. one, it could cause a huge environmental disaster, but also it could cause an economic disaster after the rainy and attack just the other day. oil prices went up significantly. the biggest leap this year so far and
4:08 pm
that could hit people at the gas pump, the petrol pump, and that would be more expensive fuel in the run up to an election. that is not a good thing to be campaigning, go. and so those that he also said that he didn't think they should target the nuclear facilities. he said that on wednesday, the ongoing talks by the united states and israel certainly between the state department and also between the departments of defense, joe biden. this said he wants to speak to benjamin netanyahu, but when he made that surprised visit into the white house briefing room on friday, he suggested that that conversation would happen. after the release had decided on their targets that he was asked on weddings. they would just stop as well from doing x or y. he said look, we don't stop them doing anything. they have to make their own decisions, but we can sell and we know they're going to consult more cars. michael corolla, who's the head of st. combe, one of the biggest operations for the united states in the middle east. he is going to head to israel on sunday. according to local media reports. it's likely what
4:09 pm
they will discuss is what targets these really are going to set up. and also what the response they can expect and how the americans can help the series on the back of the island. thank you very much. holland fisher life force the in washington dc . meanwhile, high school as soon as it engaged in fighting with these really ami in 711 on hezbollah, says, is really forces tried to infiltrate the 7 ton of what they say. the town is a key entry point into 711 on for these really military. him on con is in high speed in 711 on with more on that us in terms of the fighting this morning between his row and his blow. we've got some details from hezbollah, as well as say that there were 2 waves of his ready attacks coming in from a day. see the target to these raise. they say, is the municipal building the 1st round of fighting took place, about 3 am, where a bomb was used and his bull as

well. meanwhile, thousands of people marching through the streets of cape town in south africa, tamaqua year of israel as more on gaza. they're calling for an end to be year long genocide and attacks on 11 on syria and gm in march is want, want the parliament, the south african parliament to implement what's known as the apartheid bill to hold institutions accountable for simon wifi nations. it provides a legal framework for south africa to enforce boy con sanctions on his rep, along with divestment hardwood tests that has moved from cape the people are marching suitcase. so i mean for the people in the past, i remember when created and sort of the united nations general assembly. he said that you know what? it's like to live under a project. he said that he knows what the palestinians are going through and that's so that's not the silence. and this is what you seen. thousands of people doing exactly that. they started the module from the place for 6 and during the 19
4:13 pm
sixty's, when the started was under a potties, people were not whites were supposed to be removed in that area and put into areas in crime conditions. by the way, my, the, to the people hit save, they understand what the palestinians are going to. so it's very important for us to be here because we represent the health care workers. we represent health care. it's been a complete the section in the nation of the healthy sector in the plaza and now moving on to never know this was to support who was this the the one to absolute limits upon the people in the likes of use of. they also want to impose tensions. 8 cases,
4:14 pm
people in one year, almost everyone is in the office on the for that to me, but to be seen under the people in the palestine. i talked to officer to or despite the international pressure and condemnation of israel, it's a tax on guys, a continue unabated within $41000.00 people have been killed in a year of conflict. let's get the latest on the situation on the ground and speak to alter a couple as of who's outside of locks the hospital endowed by central guys. i know, let up in these really a tax on guys i, terry, bring this up to speed with the latest and the aftermath of those that rightfully there is no sort of risk bye to the ground. because to me is this still says to passively targeting very heavy residential areas and they have even passed and you at displacement owed, as for the residents in full areas,
4:15 pm
including the eastern areas of by time on it to valley a refugee camp alongside with the amazon rods and outrage, which by the way, they are just only a few kilometers away from where we are. now. the situation is getting much more grim because the army had targeted in the course of the past few hours for residential areas that were tactful with a civilians including in the central areas of kansas city. a residential building has been completely flat and a 3 palestinian consent killed, including 2 of them with young children. and the piece is, is the reality that the bus mature, which of those like killed innocent civilians including children and women, and unofficial. that statement as well, causes health ministry, stated that at least 23 palestinians were killed in the past 24 hours while at least 66 office wounds that i would need from. i know a few is that the military operation and rough eyes, this alone going with
4:16 pm
a very high military momentum and confrontations with palestinian groups is still ongoing on the ground with more high intensity. and we are also, we need to point out a very important for a very important point of view is that the army is exacting. now a tremendous pressure. one civilians in northern garza by adopting a very tight medical and human it's heavy and located in order to force the residence, to leave that area to the remains of the north of district. um, its more acceleration in the trade should operations close to newts or inquiry don't to create some sort of expansion as a profit 7 around that area, which is a profound reflection about the it's been a long time and tensions to control more secure. take a tight on the gaza strip to eric. thank you very much for your reporting there from down the line in central guys, atari, god bless. so my correspondent on the ground. well, as we've been reporting, they are demonstrations in several cities across the world in for ford,
4:17 pm

4:18 pm
showing how the momentum is continuing and how the british population in, in a poll that took place in may last it seems to be the majority of them against the conflicts and pulling to a ceasefire. that has certainly been echoed at this demonstration here, and also they want to see both sides engaging in peaceful negotiations. so while all of this has been taking place that have been slight changes in terms of, of the case policy. for example, when the labor policy one the elections back in july, they did start receiving funding to on the u. n. 's agency for palestinian refugees, which had been suspended by the governments before. and they've also suspended some the t palms export licenses to is charlotte outside of a total of $350.00. the fed,
4:19 pm
as was echoed by the foreign minister. david's law mate was in case any of these components could be used in a situation where a breach of international juvenile would have taken place. very small for the, for the crowd to have very small actions to take place by the government. and not nearly enough. what they would like to see from the british government, sony, i thank you very much for that. sonya vague and reporting day my from the street, london and demonstrations are also taking place in the french capital parish. these are life pictures. we have natasha butler standing by activists, a calling for a cease fire there in both guys and 11 on uh, natasha uh, talk to us about what's been happening behind you then how big the crowd size are is just on the go. the next to me so we can take that into account for the booking,
4:20 pm

4:22 pm
of the software of the people in gaza of what's, what's happening and live on on day these people here i calling them empty submit takes because germany has very broad definition of uh, 2 separate systems which also can include any criticism or any attacks against the states as well. so what we've seen here in germany, in the last year is a very refresher track down on adding protests against one day as well, has been doing a, has been a rash, family houses rated that the people even losing get jobs. so these people here show also that the situation is very polarized. so jeremy, on this issue, we saw earlier the incident in which both groups actually met the charter on the screen. and it was some small classes happening. but you could see that the situation is quite 10 seer. alright, we'll keep a close eye on it with you,
4:23 pm
of course, that boston lives that on the street separately. the, let's turn our attention to some of the days i've been use now. in pakistan's military says at least 6 soldiers have been killed in a gun battle with calm demand in the northwest state happen in spain, while i'm in the tribal district of north was the response. the military says it's carrying out an operation to eliminate arms groups from the area bordering afghanistan in the democratic republic of congo. now, which is set to begin a vaccination campaign against and punk scene go by the area hottest hit by the current operating the east. the disease is killed at least 980 people in d r c. since the start of the year. 70 percent of them were children, under the age of 5. house officials have recorded more than 30000 case online. we

4:34 pm
a 1000000 palestinians force from their homes over 41000 killed and much of the strip lying androids. but during that time hostilities across the border between these rel 11 on have thrown into full blown conflict. i was just here, as laura con is in bare root, where she looks back at decades of cost for the tensions between hesper law and israel has below his being considered as the middle and sometimes controversial fighting force operating level for decades. but it would be israel's war and garza and stopped the confirmations and nothing on the would testifies and group and create it, dangerous environment for 11 on and the middle east. the conflict between hezbollah and it's ralph stretches back nearly half a century. and in pushing yet was 1982. this is one, israel in faded lab it on rolling and types of course the buddha and pushing on the ground. at this point,
4:35 pm

that it has taken nature blows in the last few weeks. it's senior leadership has been to capitated. do you think it will be able to recover and repel? is really a tax on lebanese territory. can hezbollah rebuild itself, as you know, as we look in dyslexia revisited service. uh, its uh, you know, i mean, uh, mass organizations like how mass and has the, let them not be eradicate as easily in claim to do the full or in the case of how much. and it's even a more impossible, in the case of has a lot because i'm like as, which is, you know, kind of open air prison. uh, there is no uh, how do you meet ations for the, for as we'll have to move across the, in these directory and across regions from syria. so this organization, what would remain, it will recall situ. it's a military force. all right,
4:41 pm
and we've tried to do so and is the weather will try to disrupt this to, to prevent this. but the fact that has below remained is less organization is a, is a circle. yeah. a year on from the war on guy and he's rouse genocide in the gaza strip. we are seeing it, at least for now using similar tactics that it used in gaza 11 on targeting c. b and infrastructure 11 on residential buildings, residential areas of ambulances. and so on, do you fear that what happens in the gaza strip could happen even live in a way that is what is really, is a threat to me off as if, even though i'm 3. now of course, as you mentioned, that would be in a lot of civilian casualties. a lot of civilians could but uh they have been a targeting
4:42 pm
a more specifically has beloved installation centers, whatever. and the military and political command or of as the law and the, the can some, let's say it's so dearly measures to, to diminish the, the number of stuff, the civilian casualties by, for instance, for a minute beat, calling on people to a withdrawal from the areas they bought so i'm to know they haven't been conducting the kind of general cyber or that they have conducted in guess, nor are they complete to destroy and for instance, the solid and part of the, of the root. i mean to 1000 subject adolphe as it to school and a, the, they still have this thread. they threatened to do that. but for the time being, they're applying very heavy military pressure, i think,
4:43 pm
which is complimenting that the product and political pressure aimed at the having has, will agree to a, withdrew to north salt lake, tell in the river and re implement a resolution. 1701. 042006, right. which would also mean a deployment of everybody's army south of the don units, right? we are seeing today, the saturday huge protests in many cities around the world in support of the people . those guys are in support of the lebanese people, including in the french capital, paris, where there's a big lebanese community. as you know, the pictures we see now from amsterdam, the people 11 on today. those caught in the middle of this conflict who can come to the rescue? who can they turn to for help? what does that say? i mean, that's essentially the what, uh the, the, the, the,
4:44 pm
the by these people in the field, a band and this, by those who, who claim to, to, to support them. and in this case, when it's a given that it is, has more love that this target, that there's a strong resent them that they've locked against the wrong, they should say. because people fees be $3.00 by iran, they feel that the iran has pushed the hezbollah, the front and other states in the region, syria to start truth, which is also supposed to be part of the excess of resistance, doesn't do anything. and the wrong has been all done, the oldest symbolic gesture. so there is a resent at this level. now, as for the question of what can do really something about the what it starts to for washington, which is backing company to back inc. this onslaught the present on sort of new but not as it has complete the back. and they can park activity in the gym or side of the lower in the in does that. so the, the, the 1st, i mean,
4:45 pm
the only power that can really stop is when we or no, that is, is the united states. but the united states is actually a completely joining is arresting these wars, and that's the 1st time in history actually that we are seeing a fully joined us is really the war for song goes on. no, i'm there, but okay, thank you so much professor for speaking to us about this gilbert. i shop profess of development studies in london at the university of london. thank you for your time. and we've got some breaking news to report now. and 11, east security source has told andrea 0 that has been allowed. the lebanese on group has lost contact with the chairman of his executive council hash and stuffy dean. since last friday, how she was afraid in is, has been tips to be her son, as well as successor at the head of hezbollah. let's bring in our senior political
4:46 pm
analyst, my one for shara, who's in london for more on this, send the latest developments out of 11 on my want this news just coming in to us just a few moments ago. we know israel has been targeting has velez leadership and the lebanese group now to saying that they've lost contact with the hash them stuffy dean. talk to us about the significance of this as you know, with the suspect, the death knell for a few days. these are just have made the claim that they did targeted him. it seems like my understanding that the until now the people that are specializing this we're not able to get in there and dig where it is right in the bottom of the building. so that's why has, if i lost talking about losing contact rather than confirming whether to use the life increase is perhaps still on the federal. it's significant because it shows once again that is there,
4:47 pm
i was able to deliver one blow after another as well. it should be a significant personal because it proves that there is an intelligence re uh, there's a, there's definitely introduce breach when it comes to as by law that has allowed us to locate an attack when, when lead that us another. now clearly since the 1st was started is, is what 3 weeks ago or even more as you would expect, of course, for smaller plastic and various measures. but from the looking at this and they think of the communication devices the 1st day. and then the 2nd day and from uh, uh, the assess, the initial one has been a leader to another all the way to have some to some. and now i found him play, he's successful. all of it together. really underlined that either is getting help
4:48 pm
or is right is it has really infiltrated in various ways uh digital the electronically and perhaps uh with human source of resources as well and able to deliver these flows. now, of course you probably heard from various analysis on our channel in the past number of weeks that, well, it's a major organization. it's an actual organization doesn't depend on one man. there are those of thousands of it's god and admitted then since on. so all that's to me and yes and yeah, one should not underestimate the blow right. of assessing or think one, need the house on another and just doesn't stop bleeding the organization. right. and how will this affect their ability as well as ability to defend itself? and defend lebanese territory against israel. so well clearly again,
4:49 pm
if you add to the assassination of leaders and the strike against the militants and the support is on others with the the, just some dimensions. uh, the electronic devices. if you add to that, the bombings of kansas uh, locations, localities even uh, from the north to the east, to the south of uh, of um you know, hundreds of has been the positions and rocket launchers. and so i'm sure for that. we don't know exactly. we don't have that those numbers by, according to various estimates, is that probably the image of the blow to a good part of the rocket launchers on the block. it understands them as well as the product least and able to launch massage and still able to deter, i'm still able to supply is right in the southern front. the governor already dealing a know to be is a minister in the 1st on a couple of days, get
4:50 pm
a 9 is right in the soldiers. so there's that aspect to it as right. so this is a process. it's moving, i think once again as well as was the major blow and apparently you have another with the possible assess ignition or it started potentially successor. and it is certainly dealing with all the losses. it has to have the past 23 weeks, but it's continuing to kind of frontier, it's persisting and all the bleeding. in that, in a big way. right. my one, thank you very much for the moment. that's our senior political analyst. my one bushera with that his initial reaction to this breaking news story that we're getting this hour on the news hour and lebanese security sources telling out to 0 that hezbollah, the lebanese on group has lost contact with the chairman of its executive council, hashim, stuffy deed since last friday fe dean is tip to be the successor of as well as the, the house on us right now. who was assassinated by these release a week ago. let's bring in that. they are showing me from on this who's the
4:51 pm
director of our lead center for most interested in understanding and associate professor of me least politics at georgetown university is leih from ottawa in canada. now they are showing you what's your initial reaction to this latest news? we're getting that hezbollah has lost contact and possibly lost the successor. the man who was seems to be the successor of hass on a not and as well as leader of the group. how devastating of a blow would this be for hezbollah? again, i think it's another serious and significant set back for his beloved, the wording that they've lost contact with this individual is i think an attempt to prepare the test last supporters with a coming announcement that he has been confirmed dead. and so this is a reflection of how sophisticated israel's intelligence operation has been and continues to be that
4:52 pm
a contract the movement of senior has belong leaders and one by one you advocate them. so i think is another blow. a significant blow for has the law, the big question is, you know, can they recover from this bar? and, and the credibility of has found that note out at the professional military organization has been shaken. um, what do you think the strategy is going to be moving forward given that out? as my one of senior political analyst was suggesting that israel seems to have infiltrated the group. and it's intelligence, it is, is really a seems to be a powerful right now against hezbollah. how do you think they might change the strategy moving forward and how they can defend lebanese territory against, for the is really aggressions. and that's a great question. so it's pretty clear that because of this infiltration by the
4:53 pm
israelis into that has block communication network. this has been a big reason why i as blogs, been suffering piece bows. so i think the 1st challenge in the 1st quarter is to try and figure out how to communicate with the rank and file supporters with commanders in the field as the number one priority. i think the inability to do so also explains well has both. why has the law has not been able to utilize what many people believe is a sophisticated arsenal against israel? hotmail. and it was all these reports that they had 150000 rockets, some of them very sophisticated. why haven't they been fired yet? you would think this would be the time to do so after this level of devastation and destruction including the assassination of how something us, roland, and his successor. so i think this is the big problem going forward is how do you establish communication? so this is all things considered as a major setback. i think the big challenge is how do you prevent the infiltration from happening and then try and rebuild the organization and whether has the level level to do so, you know,
4:54 pm
is an open question on that. on that question of rebuilding the, the organization has been that was for, i mean is, or was i don't know whether we should use the past tense here, but it's a powerful military organization. even more powerful than many state armies in this region. do you think it'll be ever the same again, particularly when it comes to it's regional outreach? it was it did, it really depends on what the final assessment is in terms of this phase of their history. to what extent have they actually suffered, devastating blows that seem to have taken place? i mean, the other factor here is how able, while you're on the to sort of rebuild has the line supported your, on his, under henry sanction. it's much more week or you can automatically, this is not 2006 when after the last israel, because the law war you were on was able to step in with a huge infusion of cash to rebuild homes and to resupply his beloved. so we're in a very different period right now. so the, the, the relative weakness of the wrong will also be
4:55 pm
a factor in its ability to contribute to has below and how this organization rebuilt. but as you indicate, you're also right as below, it's not going to go away. mm hm. it drives that support from, you know, organic connections from the levity she, a community it has the peruse, but as a military fighting force, i think it's, there's no doubt in my mind that they've been severely weakened, both politically and militarily. but just how, how, how we, how, how bad the blow has been, is an open question. you say it's not going to go away, not that, not as chevy. it's been weakened militarily and perhaps politically. what will that mean then? as far as a new political reality in 11 on after this for reports, today's the united states is trying to sort of take advantage of a week and has the law to force a new prime minister. and you're a new president to be elected and loving on that would take advantage of this opportunity. so there's those types of, you know,
4:56 pm
machinations and calculations that are taking place to, to restructure or reorient the political nature of the lebanese political system to take advantage of what we can has the loss of those. those things are happening. that's a big consequence. it might happen, i think levels you know, has the big challenge now is how do you survive when israel is one by one consistently and systematically decapitating is leadership and taking out its major military installations. so this is a, you know, a, a t moment, a devastating moment for his beloved, i suspect it's going to take some time before they recover militarily and politically. yeah, a devastating moment for has belie, you say, not dash, i mean as this is happening or lies. i also now on israel and how it might respond to these really are the radian attacks a few days ago. what, what are the possible scenarios here and how likely all we today to see
4:57 pm
a direct full blown conflict between yvonne and israel? it was pretty. it's pretty clear to me that nothing. yeah, wants to do ronald's, and it'll get you wrong. very hard. that's been his game plan for a very long time. yesterday's comments by joe biden seemed to suggest that he was trying to put some breaks on an all out. you know, is really a tack on a ron for the missiles that but it is real on wednesday on tuesday. that is, um, so i think that's the debate right now. what's the debate between washington and israel, in terms of determining how far the united states is going to support and is really attack on the wrong. you know, let's not forget, we're in it. we're in, you know, about a month away from an american presidential elections. has an oil prices are going up. this does not help complet harris's re election campaign. that's what's happening right now. now they are showing me. thank you very much for talking to us about this. thank you for your time. just to remind our viewers of the breaking news we're covering on alger 011 e secuity sources. i've told us that hezbollah has lost contact with the chairman
4:58 pm
of its executive council. hashim stuffy dean since last friday he's a sick to be the next leader off has for now after the assassination of us on that . so i'm on this subject. the, the latest news as it breaks, or just her, the strikes very close to the school where the display, people are seeking shelter. you can see in the distance with detailed coverage is not just sitting in front of you, stuck out crossing. we've also spoken to lebanese families for leaving the country from the heart of the story. as road bombing campaign shows, no sign of doubts has below a need to equal the size and how to offense, the killing of its feet with the guns of raging and drawing all the attention. the full civil displacement of palestinians in the occupied westbank escalates. settlers retain late, burned down all of drives or attacks,
4:59 pm
palestinians in the west bank. so these are the 10 to blind. i will, they help out using intimidation and bonham's. we are rectitude, population protected by no one. do you want to fight westbank the other from the palestinian experience? in springfield, philly means philistine is the voice of haitian migrants when donald trump said falsely in a presidential debate that patients here were stealing and eating the pets of springfield. that's always screw concern. we are human being just like everyone. dozens of death threats have left state police protecting the schools. wittenberg university in clark state college have shut down their campuses and switch to remote classes. even some trump supporters say they cringe when they heard the former president invoke their town, shot the village there still loved the man. many haitian migrants here in springfield told us their concern,
5:00 pm
but most of them declined to go on camera. they said they fear reprisals either in person or through social media. many of them told us they're scared. some new comers now say they are considering leaving spring feet as a us citizen who arrived in 1994 philippine philistine advises them to stick it out . the more as strikes hey it's 11 on capital. israel says it's targeting hezbollah side spread residential areas. suffer expensive. that's the play you're watching l g 0 life from the house for the back to the also ahead. 70 sources tell out you 0. it has 4 last last contact with one of his main leaders passion, sunday,
