7:09 pm
a missile fire towards the resultant of a lot. one of multiple drawings and ballistic missiles to see militants declare that fired is riley targets. and along the red sea with me here in the studio is dw middle east analyst shot arizona's up. shawnee does this mean we're going to see further escalation, hope dangerous. is this potentially, this is quite dangerous for as rarely. this has a chance to build up the turns, which is a, they've lost and on october. and it's quite important in, in there, you know, whole structure of defense. and they want to seem very strong, especially because we talk about human and we talk about who these but for the israel, these, these are just a long arm of the ring and regime and this long conflict, we all know us. so for the israel is, is quite important to show a lot of strengths when it's, you know, trying to crunch down on uranium proxies. luckily with these but we also need to keep in mind to who these are independent in the sense that they have their own consideration. not necessarily connected to what the union was doing once or
7:10 pm
decides. you know, we've seen also cause bala on the other edge on the northern board and of israel. they are also considered to be a proxy, a force connected to your on but they have to be and also very rational and logical so far. and they seem to be more team, so it's still wants to build this fight against this axis against the you ran iran excess and it's going to be very strong. and it, and the who these seem to be very keen on showing very strong positioning against, you know, israel with the, you know, support for the palestinian cause. so we're not, it's not going away any time soon. probably something to watch. very adamant in the last month since october in their pursuit a guess is where the goals and something else happening today in israel, i understand is israel's military is going to start being able to draft of ultra orthodox men. and that's following a supreme court ruling. this is a very sensitive issue. i know it's been going on for years or how much of a threat is this too dependent. mr. well, you have to be seen so far. his,
7:11 pm
you know, his strongest allies within his coalition has been throughout the, the years. the orthodox parties, they don't seem to be too keen on parting away from him, despite a lot of anger against the need to follow the supreme quotes, routing routing and the fact that they feel that nothing out of kick this can down the road again. and again, and get it for so many years. and you should have found a solution for it sooner. but it is a very big contention point when you look at other israel, is it a wide public? there's a lot of resentment you see more and more is really, is drafted again and again to, you know, reserve units, you know, the toll of this, of the fight on the is where the societies quite big and the end, the hostility, you know, and the prescription for the lack of a big part of these is, is really society the orthodox that taking part in that might be something that will backfire against them to know now. and yeah, who has a trip to the united states next week. and of course, he's still continues to face pressure from the families of the hostages. he continues to face protest. so how is this all playing out?
