the, the business needs in use live from brayland ease or else we need recess. it has to eliminate that the had of passport. i found the style i wasn't targeted in on the air striking the winds on friday. there's no permanency yet from hesper that on the on demand. content delivery is melissa is what major flights and for the, at the michael junior high as my name and you are welcome to the program. breaking news coming in is that these ready ministries, as it has been, i need to have found this route, has been killed, even on the s drive on

a route. these by the defense forces said in a statement that mr. i will quote, no longer be able to terrorize the world. these are all strikes. hesper less headquarters in the city, late on friday, with reports indicating the way it targets in the product. lebanese, by the time school, which normally confirms the needs of that among its wrongs and the same day as yet to commence on the smallest rates. it has to do with some 3 decades and is credited with turning it into a major fights and folks these are also going to be chief, has the, however, he said the attack on muster. while i have been prepared for a long time and will not be the end of the outpatient, and then also phone guys, but this is not the limit of our capabilities. it must be very clear. there are more tools at out disposal. and the message is simple. anyone who threatens the citizens at the state of israel will be reached, whether in the north, the south, or even in more distant places. this attack was prepared for a long time,

executed at the right moment with great precision. and now we're moving forward with careful preparation for the next steps and we'll bring them on. does that's bring in w correspondents. atanya cream out in jones and i'm hello tony. i'm, what are you hearing from these are out regarding last palace death and possible retaliation by has split up slow. most certainly everyone he was waiting to hear what had happened after this mass of strike on a friday evening in the da here in a suburb of in southern a route and the army a set then this morning that they actually indeed killed the secretary general of husband, the house on no smaller, according to this announcement, also other commanders senior commanders were killed in what they described as a central come on center of the organization, underneath a residential buildings that are the, is really f was a target that,

that now we have not have heard a confirmation yet from has been a, as a, as to whether or not smaller was killed. now, this is seen as a border shape moment here, of course. and isabella has left the organization for over 30 years. his previous test, it was also assassinated in 9 to 92 by israel. and, you know, this comes when is when the house taken as escal atory steps. since you know, for the past 2 weeks on the pay to and we'll get to pay a tax to killing senior, come on this and on monday, this massive offensive on southern live and on and east and live and on. and of course, and now this, we don't know yet the human toll of these as strikes on the, on southern a be root. but of course, is also the question is right now, what will has ball or do next? what will retardation of possible retardation look like? we've been hearing already air raid sirens, as in the past weeks, of course,

going off in northern areas, but you know, we don't know yet how large this will get. right. so, how likely is it that we will now see on these are the ground invasion on lebanon because somehow it was expected. well, we don't know yet exactly what the military will do us from no, and i think this also depends on the next steps by husband or a potentially also by iran thoughts be heard just that the idea of chief of staff hudson. i leave you a saying, this is not the last to to know to book the scene in the past days. a build up at the northern border of ground, a forces also reserve units have been cold up. and having said that, there is a lot of things substantial support for the air campaign right now in living on against has the law of what many is rarely c as a, as

a major threat to israel. but you know, this might change or if the ground invasion, because that is much more risky for the soldiers, they're on the ground. but at the same time, of course, we've heard military expert explaining that they probably need to go in to create a sort of stuff as zone in this border area. so we, we have to wait and see because it seems that as well is unlikely, at least at this point in time as it looks like to back down. all right, any time we'll tell the w correspondent tanya curry, my in there was i didn't thank you. now really i spoke to general list that fell out men in be root that i asked the about the reaction in be route after ease or else clean to have killed has but i need to assign this right to to yes, this is the statement that we are any for now have heard from the is right in the army and it is very surprise as there has been speculations going on um,

ever since last night. when is really on me and out. that's awesome. as run the was the target of the strike ever since then people a wondering whether he is still a life or not. yesterday sources very close to his full i have the night his death saying that he's in the end stage. but this is nothing uncommon. so saw if we remember in august when the, his bullet come on to flood shocker was killed. this is the exactly the same thing that happened back then uh after the attack. and there has been to declare that he's still alive and nothing has happened. and later on them have to admit stats of sugar was in fact killed. right? so basically from what you're saying, there's not been any reaction sofa from has put out what about general reactions inside the country to say inside the country, the actions are

a bit difference. there are some people on social media that are saw, the pricing, the desk of most verola. they seem to be very sure that this message message is true. they are very happy to read about the death of no freleigh, but they also use some other people in the country who are more careful. they're waiting to hear what's his bolos going to say next that his bullet has not said anything so far. it's no one there, they're probably still busy figuring out how to communicate this, how to set up dpr, how to deal with it. and possibly there was a busy to put that 2nd in command in a, in a safer place. right? so just concerned that she has been killed. what will this mean for has 4? this is ms rela, is indeed test. that's, that we have massive,

massive consequences for the organization house on us. rolla is the name to be a very cause charismatic leader. he was very popular among the members of his paula and because he spoke the the urban accent here. he often made jokes. he's also very links to fix successes that has all that has achieved in the last couple of years. but he's not a very important leader for the organization. he's also a key figure for the whole so called access of resistance and the iranian regime. and if not spell out is best that, that then iran loses a and portions seeker mass rela, had, was, was currently doing a thing. the attacks from live on on with the rain and reading on the regime now

has to figure out what they are going to do. most run the new level, not much, much better than the rang and reading. he had an insight into the country he knew about political dynamics. so if he's really that he will leave a voice that will be very, very hot to fill rice, gentlest stella, i'm going out and be able to thank you. that's good law wouldn't be in a studio is need of human at least on our list. sonya was on his shining. we have no confirmation from the east side yet. but why is that the case? oh, the 1st of all a probably it's a good indicator of the chaos, complete chaos. the still, you know, they are after this operation of as really forces according to, is really idea of forces. they have dropped a ton of, you know, in total sum of bonds and at the end of the wait time on that very building. i mean there's very little left behind. and of course, it's also the, um, the good is part of the strategic tool. you know, they would rather, and you know,

the lebanese, the ranges and would have liked to keep israel in the dark for as long as possible is rarely seen to be very confident in this action. i mean, there's no doubt they've been on no sort of sales for a long time. i think that was strategically a decision to avoid hitting him until recently. you know, there's been a shift in his way of policy. we've seen into the last 2 weeks. definitely starting september 17th of the pages attack when israel decided to go into higher gear and not no longer stick to this. a tit for tat kind of exchanges. we've been seeing since october. and eventually, in the peak that we saw last night deciding to go for the leader of his vala casala himself. if there's no doubt how key. and i thought was to pass beula. now that, according to these, or at least that he's no more what happens when takes over. that's a good question and it's not a decision to be made in, in, you know, among the rest of his ball or whoever is to left there alone. this is definitely a question to be rainy is we'll have to do a lot with and they would like to have somebody did their post with it. they can

trust. but the qatar of people left behind is not so big. i mean on the other, on the one hand as well, it was a very organized hierarchal of organization. so they and they've been people in the ranks of has bought a for years and years that have had experience. but because it's not, we know there was a democratic process of election. there was no, we was not you to get a new vacancy in a way. it wasn't easy to get promoted. so there are people with enough experience, but it's not quite sure after these 2 weeks it is or it was very hard to pressure. all this is about a who exactly is less than it's going to be also interesting to see what the volumes choose in the sense that that's what we've been seeing since october 7th, you know, as well as decision estrada's decision to step into this uh battle with israel installed there with you, with the palestinians, and the ranges were officially congratulating that and they've been, you know, they're talking about their solidarity with the palestinian people. but then at the same time, the fact though they've been keeping sort of an arm's length away from that. they

did not want to get sucked in completely into the that war. and this step that israel has taken yesterday, that change as a whole paradigm quite deeply. and iranians are now facing the question of the union machine, and also the supreme leader himself was close a new style. a very well, how deep do we want to get into this? how much do we let? what's happening in the middle east in israel and palestine, it would garza, all of that. how much will be there to kind of take over our agenda, which we know was actually focusing on the things connected to the economy there. you know, there's also probably get understanding the needs to be more progress on the nuclear deal, which is the only safe umbrella they have as against what they see is hostility from the us and, and, and israel. so it's going to be interesting to see how they, you know, viewing and steal. we're having lost this very important proxy on the verge of these really border from north that is south of but on by so spa. right? so how does this all clean to ease arouse ultimate goal?

especially stephen, talking about a possible ground innovation in this case, would that even still be necessary? well, it depends, i think, is what i would like to avoid it as much as possible. the ground and vision is exactly where is real, starts to flail. it has clear advantage when it comes to air strikes and air forces, when it comes to ground operation in the south of lebanon. a place that has, you know, a strong hold of cause by a lot of support. lots of also through they use infrastructure and capability to, to ambush and fight and give a good fight to, is really forced, as they have known it themselves as early as after 18 years. and what was the buffer zone back then? israel had to retreat in 2000. so for his mom, i knew it to be some sort of the gift that they're given. you know that the chance for, for fighting is really troops, one and one on the ground level is real. we try to avoid it. i'm not sure. i mean, when it talks about giving these are the citizens of the north, the sense of security, that is good enough in order for them to want to go back to the houses. i'm not sure israel can avoid a ground invasion. it's a zip to be seen. the next day is

a very crucial in to see how this is all is unfolding how fast, if at all it's escalate. i suspect there will be some sort of response for right on right. be while they're still talks of a possible ceasefire agreement, what are the chances that we'll see? american intervention to make that happen? we've seen americans, you know, up until yesterday. so hoping this would come to some sort of agreement because where the american stand is that there's going to be an escalation is going to be a lot of blood loss is going to be a lot of damaging for structures going to we can even more they already weak lebanese country, and then there's going to be some sort of of, of agreements. so maybe we can skip to the end and, and save the lives and the damage in the middle. it's, i think it's a very logic way of seeing things. but i think it kind of misses on the psychology of, of, of this dynamic, you know, in, in, in, in the effort of both sides to deter each other. and you know, about how the power struggle in the middle east work. you know, showing a force is, is, is something that seems to be at least by israel. now, after was 7,

seemed to be quite detrimental, quite important in trying to set up and build up it's strength again after the big glow of october 7th, israel understands that it could be that it could have avoided it. but the psychological effect of it, of this deterrence is something that cannot be achieved by an agreement. so i don't see it coming any time soon. but also keep in mind the americans do not want to see this escalating and going out of hand. but at the same time, they're very much focused with their own agenda, with the election stomach. and so they need to be very carefully treating the line of how to keep this under some sort of manageable conflict. right. but at the same time, not letting it become the big topic with the elections. right. shiny was honest, it'll be me just a lot of us. thank you. you're welcome to let's take a more in depth look now at ease arouse aerial attack on as well as the with the headquarters of.
