. i'm just trying to do welcome 8 on say is that is relevant pay for the assassination to from also stop politic and leader is mine. here. he was killed in an ass striking that on thousands of gathered and they didn't. and capital for a funeral, honoring the leader of the palestinian policy and militant group. i'm us on the air was also the chief negotiator and talks aimed at reaching a ceasefire with these rel it agents a premium. abdullah, how many names spoke at the ceremony? it on hold is responsible for the kidding, and i said they would make each man regret to move a basketball. some data blue is middle east. i. mr. shawnee. uh rosanna is shawnee uh, a huge number of people turned up for this stream or possession. that'd be, was seen in intent on what does that say about the strategic goals of that on and a must have the line somehow yes, very much we see now the complete merge of,

of the 2 on this issue. i mean, we need to remember if we will go back to october 7th. the initiative was how mazda is, and we know that iran was probably not, you know, in the details of when and how it's going to happen. and you want to else to months since any of the strong so and there despite the strong some dare to with, with most try to keep still, you know, up somewhat of distance you know, not to let that hijack its own agenda and trying to focus on its own goals when it comes to sanction relief and, you know, a economic problems it had to do with the new president was just being that elected and so on. what we see now is really the complete merge and alignment of these 2 goals and iran personally being involved, you know, seeing that, you know, have been a, for it personally, seeing this as an attack. he met with an you shortly before he was a, you know, assassinated that evening. he mentioned, you know, yesterday and we also have reports clear that he has made a direct, you know, a order to respond to plan and he bring in direct response. so in that aspect mentioned, you know, it was a decision, you know,

israel decision probably we cannot, you know, we have no confirmation for that. but if it's been, it was behind us. what they did is actually push you on and how much you know deeper into each other's arms as we're seeing now with that would be, you know, uh the sweets up there on, i mean you're on, has promised her response to honey is killing. i'm wondering what the mean a my of such a response would be. i think it would require to strike a balance, you know, the breach of, of solver entity of the territorial, you know, and serenity of your on, of course was broken. there's also the, the need to add for events, you know, eventually, flight of, of, of, near it's interesting when we're looking at the pictures from today from the funeral, we see giant banners on street. some of them also show together how near with the swimming money, who was the customs of the many was the head of the 11 by noon revolution regard. who was assassinated by the americans and the, this the late right. i see the president who just died and in a plane crash in helicopter crash couple of weeks ago. so we see, you know, he has the front, you know, at the front of the,

of the ringing cause. and we're seeing, you know, he run would be forced to have a strong response for that. but somehow try to strike a balance that will not, you know, bring to a wider escalation. do you think we can be able to prevent that? the why this condition? you know, we never know when, when fire is exchanged, now that can always be a place for error or, or miscalculations. i, i think the assumption is, is really the place was that they can contain whatever with the you and your response would be an seo to be seen what it would be. and it could be that we will see, you know, we will have to wait a few more weeks even until we see it happening in the ring. as i've shown in the past that they take the time. and they plan very carefully waiting for the strategic moment, an opportunity. and of course, they also have the wide range of proxies in the middle east that they can also be using in order to execute further attacks and support for this kind of attack on israel speaking about one of those, the proxies because blah blah was attacked in

a sense he's very clear and responsibility for taking up front of it, sir, and he does. i'll be expecting a response from has been a lot as well. i think it's, it's going to be very hard for has on us while i not to be responding for the assess the nation. and we, for trucker, he's one of you know, he was his right hand. he had very close ties with, with him also is real acting in the da here in the heart of the lebanese capital in the room that's for itself is also something. however, israel kind of sending a message and if he's an old military targets when talk about how new and we talk about about lebanon at so that, that hope that the response will be contained. and also when it comes to his bella and to yvonne again you tell, leading on is really a military targets. and if that would be the case, then i think things can still be somehow contained and we can maybe avoid wider escalation and leave it there at the moment. it looks funny. it was on the stairs. in the television, meanwhile is rarely walk up and

a method to discuss these by his intentions. israel has not confirmed or denied that it was behind the attack that killed honey, but it didn't denounce that. it was responsible for an a strike on a suburb of beta hold, but gilbert has block amanda for our minister benjamin netanyahu assault to reassure his rarely use of the country is ready to face down threats from both iran lebanon's hezbollah. you mean that they were challenging days ahead of us? the 5 since the attack and by route threatens have been heard from all sides. and we are prepared for any scenario and we will stand united undetermined against any threat as well, but exact a heavy price. so any aggression that guidance stuff, so any from last year he did have those rebecca thousands following developments from journals, alumni also how, why did people out about to tally ition from it on the following media reports that they didn't and supreme need to order an attack on israel as well. that's why that

is reporting coming from the new york times to say that ad harmony has ordered a direct attack. they've certainly said publicly that they will be responding and retaliating as you're just being reporting against what they say is, and is riley attack of cause. israel haven't claimed responsibility publicly, although the benjamin netanyahu did hinted it last night in his address to the nation, saying that israel had had a devastating a devastating blow to your alms proxies in the plural. cuz let's not forget we're talking about to assess the nations in less than 24 hour period. one, just hours before the is male, honey. i assessed the assess the nation in iran. a one of the key come around is of the, his book a group was killed in baby root and israel did claim responsibility for that attack . so iran suddenly saying that they will come out in defense. and, you know, it's hardly surprising this isn't and very balancing blurry for iran, but let's say israel a little bit, an assassination was able to take place inside on the silver and soil. so they,

they have little choice not to retaliate. now whether or not they do it on solving is riley soil of course remains to be saying that has been president of that. we saw that happen for the 1st time in april when iran retaliated to another assessor assessor nation. that they believe israel carried out and they, you know, sent hundreds of missiles and drones in to is ready as space. most of course were shut out by israel and its allies. but there is certainly president for that. and we'll just have to say, how big an attack iran and prepared to, uh, to, to, to give israel. but we're talking also there are people talking about a 3 frontal, multi fronted attack, where all the way around the proxies may coordinate, including the who t's from yemen and has the mazda as well. so we just have to see how big it is. and then of course, what that means in terms of a wider conflict in the region, how must lead to is mental honey. i was involved in the negotiations with israel on

a cx 5 in gaza, end of a ton of the hostages. what does is death mean for these efforts? what is the result this involved? it was really the chief of the guys negotiates or if you will, he was really the person in him also had the strongest voice in terms of negotiating, some kind of ceasefire. his death will certainly bring a blow to those negotiations and that's what a many people is saying that he was considered moderate and voice within him. us if you will, certainly when you compare them to yes, yes, yes. and while i've got in gaza. 3 and that he was almost pushing was certainly more open to some kind of a sci fi do. now they could tarry an egyptian who have been very k, negotiate as it may say. fire agreements uh say that the killings will suddenly be blown to any deal that they was a deal a deal. but a israel had sent back to him off after negotiations in room on monday,

and they were waiting for a mouse response amongst themselves saying that they were, they were very, very close to reaching some kind of agreement that we don't know how close. but obviously this is going to deal a blow and the guitar, a prime minister yesterday, taking to the social media platform extra question. how can mediation succeed when one party assassinate, to negotiate is on the other side? so it caught arrive response but suddenly underlining what many people are feeling about the negotiations now and leave it there for the moment able to correspond to back out. it doesn't deal with them. thanks so much. is mind honey asking in the assassination of a top hezbollah commander have from to place from bugs lead us for the strange and by the motivation for getting the most data may stem from the groups, october 7th, to attacks. and these around the animosity towards honey and stretches back much further. it is man nia, greet surrounds new president. and what would be one of his last meetings just i

was off to attending the president's integration. he and his body guard would killed in a strike on his residence in tehran. nia was the political face of home of the militant islam is through the carried out via october 7th terror attacks on israel. nea had not lived in guns or for several years, but ron, how must, from cut to where he lived in exile, he became the palestinian prime minister in 2006, and continue to rise through how mazda is ranks. eventually becoming its political chief in 2017. how mazda is gone and lead y'all, he, us in law is believed to be the most the minds of the october 7th. the tax was near represented. how much internationally and moved around the region for diplomatic meetings. he was a key player in negotiations to stop the fighting in gaza. some via he's killing

will be a may just set back to achieving peace in the region. near death came just was off to israel said it cube, see me, a hezbollah come on. the forge screwed in they would be attacked also kills at least one woman and 2 children. and we did thousands israel says it targeted. sure . good. in retaliation for roughly to tack on this soccer field in the is really occupied golan heights. the cube 12 children and teenagers is well blamed his beloved and wound the military route. it would pay a heavy price. so could have been one of his beloved needing military figures since it was established by iran, revolutionary god, move in 4 decades ago. and off to the israel. how must will broke out on october 7th, so quoted was accused by his right of being behind many of the drone in missile attacks

that his belie launched against israel. so crude is the most senior has block amanda to be to since 2016 when most of the bad reading the groups minute 3 come on . the in syria died in an explosion in damascus. global lead us via the death of to see me and he does, of is around the greatest enemies when tensions were ready. a boiling point could now from an old, out regional bowl. and i spoke to john list jose and blue shy and keitel about what the reaction to honey is killing. and does a and westbank was the most important part for 4 gallons a is a warranty can be re, is to in the war and to have an end of all daily basis suffering. and often, more than 9 months in, in, in such a situation at all they care about is a ending,

this war. and their reaction came as a result of the destination of a funny, a might delay or postpone reaching a deal in the west bank. it's a bit different, there is a bit of grief and they are not in direct impact or the situation what's happening in goals. of course, they does it impact of a blockade and, and pressure from this way, the army. but the situation and the impact is inc. garza, how big a blow is this uh for her boss. it is big no doubt about that. how much official is said that out loud and honey i was the top leader off of how mass. but it's, it's the dimension that he's not the, at the influence impasse. and i mean,

if we talk about the situation and the war in gaza, the military wing is the most powerful bar or by the, the, the influence of the war and go in and goes. i currently thought it would be a political problem for, from us. and it will be a debate over who's gonna replace him. so who is going to replace them as well, according to the, to the how much a no, honey, i got 3 deputies, one of them already killed and one in, in garza city a is a yes. and war who's not available and he's under ground. so busy with the war, the 2nd one is the side hit our movie who was killed in, in baby root every year. the 3rd one is a valid, michelle,

who's into high and who's the foreigner, a leader of how may i ask before any. uh so according to the no one of the 3 deputies and it should take the place, but that is not me. so as of late, it may be, some changes would happen because many other parties would, would influence that. i mean the hosting country like kata, if you're on the supporting country, would influence if they are in favor of credit and much trouble or not. other parties like egypt or other art categories who is in interested of the state in an issue. so that's the, it's not it plus the eh, crystal clear about that, who's going to replace him, but according to zillow most likely will be headed to a shop. where would that leave us? he's fine. it goes here since then. uh, between uh, how moss and israel well the negotiation is,

is in, in, in, in april really before the, the, the coming office made honey it was in and, and, and hauled a position and, and was in the block. uh, somehow uh there was new agreement between the both sides from us and as well. uh, but of course the, the estimation of honey i would make it more complicated. and i, i would expect that this, the negotiation would, would be postponed for some time as it happened before, when somebody allowed me to read that the beauty was as an agent and they would be 4, but it would be resumed eventually. uh, but the question is like a how and, and, and when, and if the 2 parties are with the, for reaching a deal. so that is the most important. so this negotiation now is in hold of sports for some time, but it's not the end. it would be gives you because there's no other option or

leave it there for the moment done. it hasn't bello show in cairo, thanks so much. i strings here with both iran and the lebanese minutes and group has been la promising retaliation for recent data strikes. there is a growing fear of the logic conflict in the region is unavoidable. germany, the defense ministers spoke to the the blues because the, about the situation in the middle east and the agency of continued diplomacy. currently there's a huge concern that there could be an allow for in the middle east offset. the hamas leader was killed in a wrong. it's a new but also meeting member has to pull out your american counterparts. lloyd austin says that the war can be presented is what is your assessment of? well, of course load all seems as right, it can be prevented, but it has to be need to be that needs to be preventative because nobody calloway can. you can even imagine a further escalation of the region. we don't need that, we don't want that and we have to do to try everything add to making floating,

so available, available to all actors in the region, look to escalate and pay attention to the escalation and to do everything for getting peace back in that region. as soon as possible. what does this mean for german weapons deliveries with his commitment towards israel, but also if the german needs participation in of refills on the 11th, you feel is lot detached at the moment we, we continue. we proceed with our engagement over there. of course we uh, we assume the situation every, every day, every hour. uh but we, so we stay there. we want to make uh all the initial decisions over there. and get more from uh, the, the cost on june us identity and standing by for more into a lot of money. the german defense minister mentioned unit feel that tell us more about germany's involvement in the middle east. small germany has been trying since

the start of the conflict between israel and in, in gaza, against when israel's repercussion, and of the conflict against how mosque there uh, has already started from the beginning to try to ease the tensions in the region and try to prevent the further escalation of the conflict across the region, and this is something that it continues doing. but when we talk about presence of germany on the ground, germany is part of the uni field mission and 11 on it is part of a naval task force with german ships and soldiers that are there who primarily try to stop within smuggling into 11 on and therefore, try to guarantee stability in the region, but a german forces also contribute to training lebanese forces and have also provided equipment to the lebanese forces and europe. historians made that to mock in hawaii . what's your doing there?

yeah, he's there because germany is taking part in a, a military exercise in the pacific region called pacific skies. the exercise involves 5 different training operation. it includes germany, other european countries, but the also the us and other countries in the region like india, japan and australia. so he was there to show supports for german troops participating in the operation, but also to show in particular china that german is seeking a close eye on what is happening in the, in the pacific. but we can take a look at this report to find out more what the exercises about as hundreds of german soldiers, 24 wolfish ad crafts and frigates. this is just part of what german defends, minute stop virus. this torrijos has deployed for one of the largest ever. yeah, welfare exercises in the, in the pacific. while in the region for by that

a little talks with partners. he also visited german troops taking part in military trainings. the aim to do to china. pacific skies is a series of 5 exercises with a german air force participates with the u. s. u or p and, and regional partners at different places across be in the pacific. the 1st 3 legs and alaska, japan and hawaii has concluded the multi national exercises taking place in australia such to and this week before the point to india for further training. but why is germany's involvement and these exercises as a priority football in germany is strengthening. it's submitted to re presence in the in the pacific image, rising tensions between china and taiwan. tensions between the 2 present a threats to peace in the region along with the safety and security of international shipping through the taiwan strait, which is part of the south china sea and came by badging. china's increasing power

play, including building military facilities on islands and the hotly contested seats has seen con effect of a trade routes. all it and gas deposits and fishing rides with gemini, being one of the world's largest exporting nations. and almost 60 percent of all the global economic output being generated in the, in the pacific. but it needs to ensure trait can flow freely. germany's ships will pass through the south china sea. but defense minister bowers miss tories has not yet announced whether they will also go through the tie when straight and move, which would show the upset, but didn't stop trading pop. now. china to lesser germany is now involved in the, in the pacific as well. is that going to be a strain and it's ministry? well at the moment that is just with this exercise, there are 2 ships involved. so no, it's not going to be a big strain on its military, but it is well known that after years of under investments, the german military isn't in the great states. and that is why the german defense

minister has been pushing a lot. but also the chancellor on of shows have been pushing a lot to increase spending in the military to beef up germany's defense capabilities. also giving the big security challenges that germany faces and that the world faces we saw rushes aggression and ukraine. we see tensions rising, rising between china and taiwan and that's why the german defense minister is pushing for more funding for the military. but he spoke more about that with my colleague mission i like. if not, we can take a listen to that. we have to focus on our selves while we're on a whole what we have to do and that is true europe to the european populace. and they do has to do more for their own security as they used to do before. this is said shuttles. number 11 shows, number 2 is to focus on available and stable cooperation was our most important part of united states. we are working on 2 percent plus what do we have to reach

and we have of cause to consider all the other needs and then job and budget like other allies due to so the focus is on germany basically uh, being able and being more capable to defend itself without having to rely, for example, on the us for its defense, but also under many of being its budget. and i think it's spending for nato. we've heard him say that he wants to spend even more of 2 percent of gdp on of a funding for the military for also contributing to nato. so this is clearly a portion of the direction of increasing germany is defense capabilities. the correspond to judas identity. thanks so much, i a quick nod some of the stories making headlines around the well. 3 man accused of plotting the september 11th terrorist attacks have agreed to plead guilty to avoid a possible death sentence. they are held up to us, made a few prison in guantanamo bay. almost 3000 people were killed on 911,
