i've been physical and welcome is what else as waves of its war plains have carried down pre emptive strikes against his beloved militant targets and 11 on level thirties reported. 3 deaths is below us as it has launched drones against israel and vitality ation for the assassination of one of its commandants. the early morning in northern israel, the iron dome springs into action is, has brought up, begins what the militant group calls phase, one of an attack on israel. hundreds of rockets and drones fired towards 11 military sites. it says it's in retaliation for the killing of one of its commanders in a route last month in a statement as well as said, all offensive drones were launched at their designated times and from all their positions are made a tree operation for today has been completed the enemy's claims regarding its pre

emptive actions, the targets it allegedly hit that suppose the disruption of his ball is attacked or baseless and contradict the facts on the ground. israel says it began pre emptive air strikes on sunday against has bought a target to 11 on after. it's a detected plans of an attack against its territory. the idea exclaimed $100.00 finder jets have struck and destroyed thousands of hezbollah rocket launcher barrels aimed at israel. the tools are released. these images 8 says are of a hezbollah. drones being intercepted, israel's prime minister issued a warning after an emergency national security cabinet meeting. so we're determined to do everything to protect our country, returned the residence of the north to their homes and continued to follow a simple rule. we should pull up a hudson. we had them sundays escalation for their heightens tensions

as talks continue to reach a cease fire and hostage release deal in gaza. tanya, kyla is al correspondent in jerusalem. what sort of state of emergency is in place at the moment as well? you see, i mean the retaliation my husband was a highly until to pay to to you in recent weeks off the targeted killings in beverage and tyrone last month. but it was rather question. no, no it is. but when this will happen, and also what it will look like, whether it can be contained, whether it will be limited, or whether this will then become an o out of war. and also what then is reaction will be a following. that now has full ad side and the early morning, the statement that they have launched over 300 drones and miss haws at a military targets in uh is ro. but they also said this pros, chase would be uh,

now concluded. now israel said uh they rejected the idea that the military targets where actually a hit, they said they had loans pre emptive strikes, how they describe to against hezbollah. noticing sides and over 40 areas, mainly in a southern living on. and the reading is here that they said also that those launching sites were directed to what's a noise for as well, but also towards the center of as well. and that hot crude have had for the river cushions if they would have had a seduce like a tele beef. now we also understand now restrictions that have been put in place by the home front. come on. that is usually the guidelines for people in these route, what they should do in the event of an emergency. they have now been lifted, especially in the area of tel aviv and a north from tele beef. not so much for the people really in the northern part of israel, but that gives somehow an indication here,

at least that is really considered as a dis around, at least for now, as concluded. but of course, the country remains on high alert. what will tell us more about this situation in the north, diagnose of israel on the border with 11 on well, i mean a people that have been living, you know, with cross border attacks between has the law and israel for the past 10 months when his belie launched its 1st attacks after the october 7 attacks and the war in gaza and ever since that has been intensifying. and of course after these targeted killings, there was the anticipation that this could actually spill over into a wider war. there also thousands of people, approximately 60000 that have not been able to return home. they have been about created last year in october, november they have not been able to go home so far. but still there,

many people still in the north experiencing these across a board of fi us. and now of course the question is of what was his paula to but also what is the response again of a israel. his bullet has said, this is a 1st phase, be expecting also has been a leader. nothing assigned as follow. speaking later today, will there be a 2nd phase that has been widespread diplomatic efforts? they're all connected as well to what is happening in gone. so we have a seas for you and hostage release talks as scheduled or expected to happen uh later today. the prospect there is not very optimistic. uh, but you know, all that is related to what is also happening in gaza. and it's due to see what will then happen next here also on, on the northern front. i'll be listening to that speech from living on later on in the day time to came up in jerusalem for us. thank you. a beverage bureau chief

mohammed tree to it gave us more context on the escalation in hostilities. flexible a said that it launched more than $300.00 at mist size to disrupt this rails area. defensive paving, the way for tens of attacking drones to cross towards military bases. in northern as well. now, in a series of statements issued by the militant, cooper said that it hits what it called a strategic targets that will be revealed soon. that was the sentence. due is in a statement and more information about this is expected in a speech by the parts you need their house on the solo this evening. but several of security sources and media. the 4th said that the party attempted to hits a security facility or security facilities near the lobby of including a secret base used by the most ha, now whether it hits the target or not is yet to be confirmed. that media reports

coming out of it is what i suggest that you have talked to not reach a tel aviv whatsoever. this was the largest the docs from the ban on, on this right. and since the outbreak of this conflict in october and otherwise what else has. so how else have people being reacting to these attacks as well as looking quite normal for a sunday here in, in bade with the attack stroke about anxiety in the morning and fee is that is right. gimme a response now could widen the conflict further, but soon as possible announced the completion of disability operation. also reports coming from israel in the same direction. meaning that is where you need a response to. this incident is over the front and gradually went back to the daily routine of 64 tops and intermittent cross border showing between both parties. so life went back relatively to the usual here in beta with some airlines canceled

flights at to and from beta with the airport. the caretaker government also met in the morning to discuss the developments and, and the spokesperson said that it's reaching out to mediators to de escalate the situation and the latest from the w's mama trait to thank you. i asked security expert, christopher morris from the university of portsmouth, but his type on the attacks by his blah and the as well. i think more than anything these latest wave of attacks really i'm the effectiveness of these radio defense system is proved. incredibly, that's of interest. that thing the vast majority of strikes coming from us, but a lot of cost is also a case that the pre emptive strikes carried out from the base of robust intelligence will have significantly degraded the planned attack by us by law. but here's the law says this is just the beginning, the no take,

we recently released videos of its huge tunnel network. what threat does it pose to is when a lot of course the a lot of interesting things going on because the lot at the moment and i'll certainly be said to these lights, this way, roadside sauce, and pre phase one of which is likely to be a far larger, more sophisticated operation, they have also released some interesting footage over their extensive tunnel network within 11 on now with this, they're probably sending a number of messages festival by citing the you know, we have expensive networking storage and concealment and we can continue doing what we are currently doing for an extended period of time. there also kind of my space telegraphing the risk of infiltration. i'm, you know, it's a real show of force from as below, which is interesting to see if this junction humans around activity levels praise that has below attacks and renewed threats to the ones that are wrong. what do you make of those statements?

now one of the biggest concerns in by united, the interest of international security on, on behalf of israel in the mountains, is going to be coordinated pressure coming from. i'm us has the, i'm the group these at one time now coordinated effort. so in any sky would present a major challenge, it's something they struggle to do so far. but given the common baccha and iran, but it's going to be a key concern if the coming months. isn't that exactly when is well, has its back up against the wall when it's attacked on multiple front, singleton easily. yes, of course. and that biggest is going to be, i know the larger rating and attack. and they combination of attacks from kind of like a triple h is happening at one's back could be enough to is overwhelm the extensive is radio defenses. and that would present to meet your challenge. how likely is this this a cold attack overprice of attack from the run right now considering everyone's being bracing for this for some time after the killing? of course of almost his political chief is melania and t. ron?

of course, yes. so there is increasing concern that there is going to be an, a rainy and response. so far we've seen that while we see in a large scale of attack, and we've also seen intense pressure stemming from its proxies across the region. now again, coordination is going to be a major issue that if we were to see a large range of attack again, i would expect the us, which maintains that heavy presence in the region 2 gets involved in intercepting any strike. so whilst it is a major concern, there are space international forces to consider in the region as well. well, the us, so also has carriers that have arrived in the region, but just summing up, how would you rate the risk of o out war? now considering all of these developments, it's a precarious balance on the one hand, nobody wants to face, you know, the front of the ground war and lab and on. and everybody is mindful of escalation . on the other hand,

we have this persistent need on behalf of everybody involved to maintain face. and that seems to be one of the key aspects driving the conflict at the moment. so it was a very precarious problems that we were in at the moment. is that the only hope for the escalation saving face? well, it's actually, i would say saving face is what's driving the violence. you know, you have a specific need on the off of hezbollah, mouse who these to respond to his route on to demonstrate strengths. failure to do that would carry immediate local consequences. and of course, it would be a concern for the major allied around. so let's say it's probably one of the factors this really driving the conflict moving on as well. so. so what else to play is need to do in the region or elsewhere abroad to ensure that this doesn't regional level as well, hopefully 11 and can be an absolutely key. but the, i'm talking about 11, the state head can be an obviously the key bottom here. um, in terms of like relieving pressure is going to be all,

i suppose the us and iran is external policies to really kind of, i suppose rein in the tensions in the region. exactly how that might happen. i am and show, but it's definitely something that the international community needs to continue to watch with the incredible interest by today. it's your insights, christopher morris from the university of portsmouth. thanks for being on data over here. thank you so much. in other news, jennifer police say 26 year old serial man has confessed to carrying out a knife attack in the western city of zoning and in which 3 people died. and 8 others was seriously wounded. the so called is lennox states, claims it was behind friday nightstand page at a festival that provided no evidence. police and prosecutors say the suspect turned himself in, and they're investigating any links to the terrorist. but after a day, long man hunt, police take the suspect to kill it into custody. authority,
