ecstasies when mistakes is the system of the 0 world, here's disturbing allegations of speech sanctioned irregular adoption israel the m and i chose an affair on now just to your the the welcome back is just going one g m c. that's 5 30 am into her on, on sort of hide us when we get seen reports that israel has just launched. a 2nd wave of strikes against iran take and listen. now these, all, some of the latest images out of to,

hong is real confirmed. it's conducting what it's called precise strikes against military targets in iran, in response to iran attack against his ro on october. the 1st iran state media has confirmed that 6 explosions west and south of the capital to run. but it says it's commenting on the cause yet all the scale of the damage. well that speak to correspond that results have done who joins us live from the wrong russell. we've been discussing this now for the last few hours, but this story is changing. what, so the latest developments from where you are now as well, the 2nd wave off is really attack has just taken place and from where we are doing lives. we also have heard of the explosions and iranians are saying that this is the ace of a of defense system in action targeting the rally is rarely aerial vehicle

. so at the last visit, the 2nd wave mostly was focusing on the eastern part of the city. so go see that that, that ron is quite a huge city after city, off of having that 15000000 population. and now the uranium semi official, these agency tests name is quoting for on some of the various forces and saying that you're on reserves is rights to response to any form of aggression. then there is no doubt that israel will receive a proportional reaction to an action taken. so now your writings are seeing that they are going to respond. indians does not come in as a surprise because iranians have been keeping saying that they will respond to a potential is ready attack accordingly. so simply the policy adopt this year was for tat. they were seeing that if israel test or made it to the targets,

we are going to attack the intermediate to target. this is where the text, oil, and gas reserves we are going to ethic, the oil and gas. reserve skip is ram ethics, the residential areas, we are going to attack the residential areas, and now is rad. these are seen to clearly they have target at the military locations. then, based on the statements that's coming now from iranians, there is now an expectation that you're on also will respond to a, to these idea thanks by heating his rally, military targets. how that when that is, that is that's not being match and she sees that it's rights to response. so it on reserves is fried, to respond to whether that's going to happen immediately or not. they want into common weeks. that is, that is not clear here, but on the other hand. and when we look at the explosions here, it's clear that these explosions are not the explosions results by the attacks.

conduct a bite to eat crafts for me, science brother, what we can see and sense these are the drones mostly quad core, upstairs and now the uranium is defense system or so if you haven't seen them still using the russian made as 200 or s 300 as or they own locally produced by this 373 retorted with the equivalent of the russian made as to the humblest or for that support system. but rather you have seen that anti craft guns are in action. that sounds that you're seeing or from that type of craft gone so far on the other hand. so there are 2 main uh, 8 ports in iran, implementing a for international airport. and i'm and mid about it. of course, the directors of these in for saying that that they are patients and not is not interrupted. they're continuing as usually so now within an hour she

a we had agreed to see the sunset is the 1st day of the week. people are starting going to go to they work and of course is going to be that it's been extreme morning because they accompany has come directly on to an attack. so there has been 2 waves off is randy attacks within 3 and a half hours. but as of now, is not, could be of this the cave of these attacks. and of course, scale of the harm that was caused by the is right. asterix strikes is not clear yet because we believe that in the coming to hours we are going to see whether there are casualties. and it's precisely which ministry facilities how being targeted. so we can see that mostly this 2 variables is rarely a text or focusing on the capital of the company. despite some of the reports that there has be some exposure, as in the center of cushions in the city or she has an a, an mesh has, however,

mostly the crux. the focus of these attacks was on iranian capital. and are still it's true going to be around 6 am in to her on where all people going to be. is it going to be a normal uh, work day? where are they likely to be heading? and how do you think from the public be rainy and public is going to react sort of this as well, so far, i mean, cease to. but 1st, when you run has launched risk nearly around $200.00 of those to me. science one is ram on, they haven't seen a major interruption in business. people are going around and going about their daily routine, how they're psychologically mentally, of course, these anticipation or any time that these radical attack is affecting them. they're the look you run has seen the war during the rest 188 years long. iran iraq war the have seen how the war attempt did the best state and, and then extremely concerned on death and even displeased of the wrong. when you

see the right things, the pictures, or if the, for the troops, they are all these costs of the, reminding of extraordinary times radians or mounted affected by that. but practically, if you look at whether the device is being dramatically effective or not, that is definitely the no, i'm today or so we have not to expect me to be any different despite now the possibility of more been more tangible. but that's just not randall officials did not declare set to they as an off day. i'm going to expecting within an hour people gradually going to the workplace, but it is still going to be an extremely time stay. so now you're running is also seeing that baby of a defense system has been extremely successful. with this could be turned into an o for trinity by d, randall officials. they can send the message to their internal public and to, to, to further and has the, the,

did the domestic cost of the least cost of the nation as well because they, well, all the defense system has worked properly. it has delivered properly and you can see we have lost 200 of ballistic. besides over the israel onions return. what does that has done? has happened in a very small scale that could be the case tomorrow, but as i said, for now we do not know whether now is that has to do that is to attack on if you're on board, whether that are going to be true to the 4th or, or, or more wave of attacks coming or not that is going to absolutely determined that the course of the us. but as of now, based on observe ations, we can say that that has not been remarkable homes yet. despite seeing that we need to wait and see once it is the sun sets up. and then we will see the scale of the destruction. and there will be much more information regarding whether that has been any casualties, whether those made it to the facilities that were targeted. or if you got it as

a strategic ones or not. but as of now, we can confirm that that has not been attacked on oil and gas reserves on nuclear facilities because that was the major concern. so yeah, in case of such an attack on this strategic festivities, it was almost could be that these could potentially lead to an old lot more that close the cut that could drivers the whole region from the gulf in persian gulf to them. it isn't mitigating and see, but we can't say as of this moment that these right, the tax with quite well calculated, well measure how big it is read, you know, and these are not willing to retaliate. the say that you're wrong preserves is right to response. when we do not know yet, okay, thanks very much for that. the latest update, of course, from iran capital to her on the so it's are the then of course will be checking in with you shortly. now it is really ministry spokesman. daniel has already made the

following statement here, and he said these really minute tree is conducting precise strikes of military targets in iran. he also added the regime and it's proxies in the region have been relentlessly attacking is role since october 7, se, but like every other silver and country in the world, israel has the right and you t to respond to it, runs a tax. somebody has already also added the defense case of, but it seems awfully mobilized to defend the states of his route and its people will of course, find all those latest lines from his ro is mohammed jump june correspondent, who's in jordan's compas online. and that's because he's ready to government his band, all the 0 for reporting within israel and also within the occupied territories. uh my husbands are we've been speaking for the last few hours on those latest developments. what is his role saying, are we hearing anything? well, other than that statement, i'm sorry for the time being,

we're not getting any more detail with regard to the scope of those strikes against iran. and if you look closer at that statement from daniel a guy who's the spokesperson for israel's military, it talks about precise strikes against military targets. that's the language they use. but it does not say how those strikes are occurring. it does not say what is real is considering the military targets that they are targeting right now. and it does not state, it does not say whether or not this is going to be a phased attack if the attack has concluded, if it will go on, as you mentioned earlier. and as we talked about the last time you and i spoke on air, there are reports emerging that there potentially is a 2nd wave of attacks from israel on iran right now. this has not been confirmed by israel's military, or anybody in the is really political leadership. what we are seeing emerging from

is real at this hour. we're seeing more reports about the fact that there are a lot of political and military leaders at the defense ministry compound and tele, v overseeing the strikes against iran that includes, of course, is really prime minister benjamin netanyahu. reports also have emerged that this retaliatory strike by israel against the ron was approved by the cabinet earlier. busy on friday evening and a phone conversation that the cabinet had with his rarely prime minister netanyahu . and these really defense minister you walk a lot. the reports also say that the cabinet ministers had been briefed on the scope of that retaliatory strike in the days leading up to the phone conversation. and that in that phone conversation they approved it gave permission to log in. it's in yahoo to go ahead and carry out that strike beyond that. really no more detail calls from the israeli government. we are awaiting those details. we know

that the home front command when it comes to directive is given to is rarely citizens about readiness and alertness. that has not been changed, so that indicates that at the moment, israel does not feel that they are under any kind of increased threat of counter attack from iran. but again, this is a very dynamic, it's very fluid situation. this can change minute to minute, hour to hour. we do expect to be hearing more from the israelis in the hours to come right now. a lot of speculation and these really media a lot of reports emerging that are citing reports in the us media. wondering if this is going to be a phased counter attack, retaliatory strike if it's going to last several hours. nothing that has been commented on officially by is really officials nothing that has been confirmed by the israeli army, which is going to have to wait to get those details. we know that the americans have been very concerned. and the last few weeks is realized when ratcheting up its rhetoric with regard to the fact that they said they were going to strike hard

against iran. and that everything was on the table. the americans had been urging the israelis not to strike nuclear facilities in israel and not to strike oil facilities in israel, that there were reports in the past week, citing american officials saying that americans felt confident they had gotten the necessary assurances from his re lease that israel was only going to target military facilities, but again, we don't know when is real, talked about military facilities. what exactly that means. so we're just going to have to wait and see. and the hours ahead right now, a lot more questions and answers. it's a very fluid situation, sorry, and how much it is 0. is it likely to pass for a response? is it likely to be concerned that there may be a response from iran or him us and has butler? it has often repeated that it's not just in defense, but it's also always, it's is sorry, it's not always just it's ready to attack,

but it's always ready in defense. is it likely to pass any response is real, has even stated in their, in their release is this evening from the, from the military that they are ready that their defensive capabilities are ready. and israel, over the course the past few weeks are it said on many an occasion that they were going to make sure they were the highest state of readiness for any type of strike that he, ron, might launch against israel in retaliation for this retaliatory strike from israel against iran, the region is on tenterhooks right now. tensions are at an all time high because the more this goes on, these tit for tat attacks in a situation in the region that is completely changed because now in the past year as we're suicide, our was talking about just a few moments ago. now you have direct confrontation going on between israel and

iraq. that's not something that used to happen. it used to be a proxy battlefield. now you have direct confrontation. and that's what so concerning to international actors, to the us, to so many people in the region. the worry is about a wider regional conflagration at a time. retentions are in all time hot. now in israel, israel continues to maintain and tell their citizens that they are ready for any kind of strikes that might be headed towards israel is real, says that they are fighting iran and as proxies. israel is involved in several different conflicts, right now. they are waging lots of different wards. they are fighting and gaza. they are combating against his bullet in lab and on. and of course now there is this further strike on iran is real, tells us citizens, they are ready is real, tells that citizens and defiant tone is often that what they are doing, the actions that they are involved in right now. all this aggression that it is going to make israel say for in the long term, but the fax,

the mattress are as you and i have discussed what's going on in these real these days. you're having more and more barrages of rockets that are coming, especially from 11 on towards israel communities in the north major cities like heifer communities in the center of the country, cities like tele, vive, and residents. they are facing a very new reality where there are barrages of dozens of rockets every day, some of them getting inside of those major cities. some of them causing shrapnel default in those cities and communities because they've been intercepted by is rarely interceptor missiles. part of the is really air defense system and that's causing a lot of concern amongst the citizens in those areas because they are becoming more and more accustomed not just to the garages of rockets but to the air raid sirens, they're having to rush to air at to shelters throughout the day, it's become a new reality for them. so even though the israeli government continues to say that they are protecting the homeland and that they are doing all they can to defend their citizens,

many in israel are worried that the country is becoming much more vulnerable. and the fact is, you have this multi front more that's going on. now you will have this retaliatory strike against iran. certainly right now, these railways are saying that the defensive systems are capable. they are saying that they have not heightened the alert when it comes. this is because of this attack on the wrong. but again, that could all change and we're bound to hear more about that from the israelis and the hours to come. okay, thanks. all right, and i hung up very much so how much i'm doing the pharmacy. it's an area you've covered extensively and you're all doing so. so reporting for us from a mine in jordan, but on the latest is really long as because elders are, is not allowed to report the israel husband us. well, that spring in rose jordan, who's in washington d. c. now i wasn't obviously uh we have been hearing from the us on this, but what more do we know what, what is the us thing as well,

we do know nailed from uh, the white house, the president joe biden, who is at his home in delaware for the weekend has been uh, of made aware of this really air strikes on are running and targets and is said to be monitoring the situation late on a friday night here on the us east coast early saturday in the middle east of we also have this on the record statement from john savage, who is a national security council spokes person. and i'm quoting, we understand that israel is conducting target. it strikes against military targets in a run as an exercise of self defense. and in response to a ron's ballistic missile attack against israel on october. first, we would refer you to the israeli government for more information on their operation. and of course, in the weeks between october 1st and these airstrikes taking place overnight on october 25th into october 26th. that there's been a lot of speculation. and then

a lot of discussion about what the u. s. would want to see from such and as really action the us reportedly has been telling is real, don't strike nuclear facilities, don't strike oil facilities. mainly because the u. s. one doesn't want to see a global economic meltdown as it were. if those oil facilities were struck and to it has been very desperate to not have this turn into a direct more between around it as well and possibly turn into a regional war. something which of the us does not know could be brained in very quickly. now this is also a situation where i am told by a us official that no was, no us military forces were directly involved in these error strikes that apart from the fact that about 100 us troops have been said to as well, along with

a sophisticated anti air missile defense system because they would operate the system that would be part of the us is ongoing commitment to help protect as well, from some sort of outside attack. the us already provides several $1000000000.00 a year in military aid to israel. but with the deployment of these $100.00 troops and this sad system, as well as the continued deployment of an aircraft carrier strike group in the waters around uh, saudi arabia. to make certain that to again, the us would be able to provide israel, that protection. there is no direct us involvement in this air campaign against iranian targets. that's from a us official on the road. can you also focus through how busy the us has been the administration suddenly for outgoing years? president joe biden, we have the elections, round the corner. there's been

a lot of shuffled diplomacy with us secretary of state onto the blinking, just visiting the region in fox and castle just uh 24 hours ago. well, the thing about the timing of the us selection, the timing of these uh air strikes, the timing of the secretary of state's visit to the region in an effort to try to deal with the ongoing war on dogs. so they're all related, but they're really 3 separate issues. the reason why antony blinking was in the middle east this week, he was in riyadh saudi arabia. he was in tel aviv and in jerusalem. and he was in doha before going to london to meet with other regional officials. there . the reason why he was there is because of the death of yahoo, austin har, the former leader of her most the us, his belief is that and this is the moment for israel to essentially stop. it's more

on gaza to come to an agreement with her boss on a ceasefire to bring out the remaining captives and to really surgeon additional extremely necessary humanitarian aid to the people of golf. so that was his primary reason for going to the region this week. seems like a take the opportunity to actually try to bring this war to in it. because as we've heard and to the blinking, say several times, especially on thursday, while he was in, jo, ha, the us, his belief is that as well as the strategic aims in the war on gaza has been achieved. and that it's now time to wrap this war up. now, the timing of it. yes, it's coming now some 10 days before voters go to the polls here in the united states. but at this point, it doesn't really seem as if you would see a major change and how us voters are going to cast their ballots. whether for the

vice president campbell harris on the democratic ticket, or for donald trump, the former us president on the republican ticket, people have essentially made up their minds. and unless something that is highly unlikely to happen, an end to the war happened tomorrow, you're not going to see any real impact of this ongoing situation between israel and iran, and certainly the ongoing war on god's are on the us. the luck direct to. okay, thank the residential net in washington dc for the latest of the us reaction. but now let's go to the un headquarters in new york where gabriel alexander is life for us. um, a lot of the on the most that see that we have seen over the years between israel and iran has play doubts in the when have we had any reaction so far

not yet. is the short answer to little bit before 10 30 pm here on a friday night in new york, we have reached out to the secretary general's office. we have not heard any statement from him a yet, but that is normal. he usually will wait to several hours after something like this takes place before he would issue a statement to kind of assess exactly what has transpired. so we probably will be getting a statement in the next few hours. i would think from the secretary general, that's just kind of my uh, guessing there. but i can tell you for sure. the secretary general's probably is being briefed about events that are taking place, being brief from the folks from the region as well as other diplomats, a to get a sense of where things stand. but as of now, no statement from the secretary general, i should also point out no statement from the reigning mission here in new york. either they have been putting out statements in recent weeks. so certainly the last

one that the reigning emission put out here in new york was on monday when they called on the security council to can them the fact that joe, by and the us president, when he was in germany. so that he was aware of when and if, when and how i should say that to israel would strike you read the us, the uranium mission here in new york, send a statement to the secretary general end of the present of the security council saying that they should condemn that saying that it was an inflammatory statement by the us president. and that the us would bear full responsibility for any is rarely attack on e ran. well, clearly that has now happened. i can tell you the secretary general 4 weeks now has been calling for de escalation, any sort of spill over either in the web and on or between israel and iran is something that he has been very worried about for

a very long time. and clearly that spill over is very evident at this hour. and of course, this is just a few days off the iran had written a to view and new, clear what stuck to complain about is really threats. can you hear me that gabriel? we may have lost gabriel. the okay, well we'll try and reconnect with him. but let's take a look at the critical events that have escalate to escalate to draw the tensions between israel and its regional neighbors. is ro conducted a stripe on the runs concerts in damascus. in syria, killing 13 people, including 2 iranian minute treat, come on, does it wrong then launched about $300.00 missiles and drones darned cleared his rainy territory, mocking the 1st time to run had conducted a direct result strike against is ro how most political chief is mine, honey,

it was killed, internet strike that targeted his accommodation into her own. now the attacks took place and they also had a attended funeral, gracious harmony of their owns president. most vote possess scan these really minute 3 launched and an expensive operation. 11 on with over $650.00 strikes against hezbollah targets, as well as secretary general hospital throw low was kills and not, and by the end of september is rarely expanded it, so patients to include a ground defensive into southern lebanon. now iran launched another significant attack against israel firing some 200 ballistic missiles this time. so here on said it was in response to it was really minutes. your operations and goals are and 11 on as well as the killing. it said of celia, hamas and hezbollah. be to ship as well. now let's go to her son and i'm 9 is a scholar and a political unless with the mid least institute and he joins us live now from

washington dc. thank you for always joining us. um, what are your thoughts on what we've been saying to waves now? still the 2nd way to be confront officially by the is riley's way, gets a hit, especially as well from the ranges, but the pictures were showing it the what do you make of all of this, even though we were expecting is roll to attack iran. we have not yet seen what is the cause said there's a sufficient image of victory in these attacks to have seen a few videos from the on there that shows some so far away from some witnesses that they have or when 5 minutes. that's not enough. all the height that is, that has engaged in over the past many weeks now cannot amount to just stops. we would have to see if uh, actually uh, are you guys based on uh,

the city my time blocked? is that something going further or whether it is going to be or going further? but i just want to remind you of the a, for example of how holiday that was the back on the young man was the 2 professional, lots of secretary internet that. yeah. tech on, uh, 11 uh as being leave the n spectacular. and uh, i doubt that we can uh, denise, uh, nothing new home says would not face the type of criticism from his. so actually if you liked, if he stops here. so i think it is too early to say that this is the app that we might be seeing much more evidently, it's in the interest stuff that's heading out to see more not just for the image, but because this isn't indeed the whole project before. and i don't that i use that to be, i cannot be station is literally at its weakest today. it has not shown any signs of text over the past year and it has to follow the exactly the.
