welcome as well as attacks against has bullock continuing to another night with multiple s flights and 11 on capital b, lebanese media report to this, these full mass of attacks that the shortly off to israel is all me call them residents to evacuate the email for another night is babe route brought fresh attacks as israel continues its campaign against the armed wing of hezbollah . israel said it was heading military targets and a weapon stores in the city. the lebanon's government says is really a tax if kills more than 2000 people in the past year. most of them over the last 2 weeks, the commercial flights have been taking off and landing at the roots airport. despite the nearby explosions and hazy skies. countries

around the world, are you back, you waiting their citizens from living on in the wake of the intensive bombardment? yet, many more lebanese have had to flee their homes, but have been unable to leave the country. 1.2000000 people have become internally displaced. since israel stepped up its attacks meanwhile, has blow launched its own attacks against israel cleaning. it was targeting a pair of military bases near israel's 3rd largest city haifa. the group claims they fired 3 salvos of rockets and attack drones throughout the day. footage showed is really intersection systems and action over the northern city of curious tuna is really officials say 2 rockets struck crisis, causing several injuries and damaging property and buildings. on the

eve of october, 7 is rarely prime minister benjamin netanyahu met with troops and commanders in northern israel and told them they were changing reality of the year ago, we suffered a terrible blow for the past 12 months. we've been changing reality from end to end . the whole world is down at the blows troops up inflict on our enemies and i salute you and tell you. you are the generation of victory. together we will fight and together we will win with god's help is not to ship a year into this conflict is real, is deep into a war and gaza launching daily strikes against 11 on and says it's preparing ever tell you a tory attack on a rob in unsinkable reality before october 7, num been teller, blue is a senior fellow at the foundation for the defense of democracies focusing on iran.

and it's proxies. i aust, i'm only a house phone cuz the last bill is pleasure to be with you. that really is a key question right now is israel continues to move north, both by air, power and ground power. trying to either flush out the high mid level operative is in what's left of lebanese has bullets committed control networks as well as go after precisely what you mention, which is that inventory or that arsenal of various long range right capabilities which includes on the lower end mortars of a slightly higher end, anti tank weapons on the even higher end drones and just above that rockets and finally above that ballistic missiles of which one was fired a few weeks back. i mean, uh, the israel hezbollah exchanges either a public reports that say, based on these resources, you know, somewhere near 40 to 60 percent. there's a very rough estimate of hezbollah as arsenal of $200000.00 plus projectiles has been detected and expanded by these really, i cannot personally verify uh the,

the legitimacy or the rest of the, of that claim. but this claim is currently cascading western media right now. that number. all right. how long do you think is? well, we'll continue these attacks on his follow before it feels that has a cheap enough. well, the, the real question is where for the north is the crossroads of the military victory and political victory. and as israel has experienced more conventional battlefield success against an a symmetric adversary, there is a debate as to the gold host that may be changing the primary domestic whole post with the news realistic backs that goal post with the war. and the south was obviously japan or defeat him off and bring the hostages home and to prevent what's left for that group or really any kind of resistance in the gaza, from the organizing and firing back. like you've done october 7th against israel with a north of friday and but one has been to find a way to stop the conflict that is a provides a safe enough window for the 60 to 80000,

internally displaced persons to go back to the 40 plus goes 1000 israel's north as well as be able to kind of be thing as well that becomes something go back and forth, serve you at resolution 17 o one. so until israel really sees the change and, and, and, and as well as pastor and the south, not just that, the da here, but even further as you get closer different tanya river, i don't believe any of the operations will be changing any time soon. i'm a little delayed, i'm actually a from a accomplishing success. there is the seemingly hot board that's operating in the background visa view, these nomic a public of iran, which is as well as proxy. let's talk about it has all the features as was paid for it by giving me let's talk more about. iran is very prime minister benjamin netanyahu has said that his country will retaliate for the iranian, besides attacks last tuesday. why hasn't this happened yet? or i still believe it's more a matter of when rather than it is real response kinetically, you know, berkeley against these romika public. after all, i did take, i think,

anywhere from 5 to 6 days between the last, the running and projectile garage back in april. until when it's roll responded, which was on their april 19th. during that response, these really showed they could do much more damage with much less ordinance as of much more advanced audiences. i think that a lot of the likely drivers of a delay here are political interaction with the us, trying to find a target package that doesn't run. it follows the red lines that us has set and the region, but perhaps more importantly, trying to make sure that the strike either de fangs or deters these models the public. but there also is a $1000000.00 question to ask their meetings in this way to be a mere military operation. uh or is this part of a larger campaign? and that's an important question to ask because we're on the but the october 7 terrace attack. the terrace attack, which has moved, is gone from its previous past year of managing many of these theaters of conflict, where the islamic republic has proxies and trying to solve that. and how that change in philosophy may impact is really wrong shadow war,

which is now about the open. i'm not quite sure yet. last month you wrote a column way. you said, if anybody has known how to take the wind in the middle east since october 7, it has been iran. what did you mean by that? as well as you and the viewers may remember that back in the april exchange between iran firing missiles and israel responding kinetically reportedly present by them. and this, each prime minister netanyahu to take the wind to seize the opportunity and not responding kind of a rally around the flag and noting the success of the ability to deny that these monica public from lending a blow. but the way to iran has been continuing this fight with, you know, changing these theaters of conflict, changing the volume of projectiles. and staying in the side is that is achieving political wins. what i meant by that is one of the biggest things, unfortunately these monica public has going forward, is that it is able to successfully slate on america's fears of wider war in the region. particularly as we come up with the one year anniversary of the october 7

terrorist attacks. and in that sense, try to use american cont, fee or is a good wider war to pump the brakes on the success of israel's military operations . so, inadvertently here he wanted to be taking the wind by preventing on peers and black american water war and fleshing out the americans desire for restraint and de escalation, i over deterrence. i just want to get deeper into that comment about the us because you also wrote that iran is benefiting from a contradiction of the heart of how the by the administration in the us sees the middle east. help us understand that to that is precisely the contradiction that even a year later we still see is us policy. and that's the, the talking about are the signaling of a desire for deterrence of the region. but in terms of the practicality of the us, pos, spot for sponsor in the region, as well as the things that it is doing. it's signaling a desire for de escalation and de escalation of deterrence, or 2 fundamentally contradictory philosophical and practical moves. if you're

trying to restore deterrence for both the returns, you necessarily have to take risks. and some of those risks are indeed a split story needs to be. if you're doing the escalation, you're trying to freeze a cost like you're trying to build trust. you're trying to walk things back and then indeed in a, in a potentially dangerous cycle, whether it's much mistrusted ongoing shooting, the escalation can actually erode here to turn. so this contradiction that exist at the heart of us policy in my view, is driven by a war between us strategy and politics that is not yet educated and will not be adjudicated even as we get closer to the november 5th presidential elections here. you've also mentioned this as today is the 1st anniversary of the home off federal attack on this rel. i'm the start of the war and goes on. i would like to take a step back and ask you how you think the region has changed since then. as oh, goodness has changed drastically even as we came up to the terrace attack on october 7th. no one i've actually knew that it was coming. but as you came up to it,

the talk was the trend lines in the region where that's the approach that is crow states were getting together more. there was all this talk of potential savvy is really normalization. there was this outside in approach that was started by the trump administration continued by the by the association, someone lately to bring the status quote and pro american forces in the beach and much more together. the problem is ever since october 7, the multi front war is real, has faced, has been really devastating. i to that bro. to bring this up. that is quote, coalition, together. and instead you've seen a massive divide between some arab states and the arab street. a, you've seen a raw and try to use military force both indirectly by proxy than directly twice now against israel to be able to take the focus off a vehicle to put the focus back on the palestinian issue that mentally by using and abusing that cause. and indeed, you've seen actually the us adrift because of that contradiction between deterrence and the escalation and adrift that either trying to force the piece and i drifted

either trying to restore deterrence. and as we get a indeed closer to the us selection, you're likely to see all of these trend lines kind of continuing limp along. that's fine. i'm ben, color blue for the foundation for the defense of democracies. thank you so much for that context. thank you. to new sales, president guy's side appeals on calls for a landslide victory and his country's presidential election. but both a to an out was down sharply into his ear. the both place of the out of spring uprising and the only country, the image of democracy. observe a say the vote for small by many candidates being eliminated from the process, which prompted several opposition parties to boycott the election. to be just president, how you say it celebrates with supporters on the streets of the capital of the exit . polls showed him winning nearly 90 percent of the vote was the shop. he's the son of the people guy side. we rejoicing for someone who has served for the country

going up and not for his own benefit. he serves for the good of the people that are those. it was widely seen as a foregone conclusion. the president saw you had a cast is valid and one of the capitals northern suburbs would secure a 2nd term. but despite the lines, at some point in stations, overall turn out was low. just over a quarter of eligible voters down sharply from the nearly half who voted in the previous election. also probably not. voting is not a solution. focusing on the other hand is a positive action. people need to come out and vote shopping to show that the june easy and people on taking these selections for granted. and that you do see i can do better over the next 5 years or so to see how i came to vote with that because it's a national obligation. she and i also came for other reasons about to change the situation in this country for our children from to i want whoever is elected as the

new president, to do good things for our country and our lives and for our children and their lives. many of 2 nations young people, the no future in their country. so 40 percent are unemployed and a recent survey found 70 percent of young to nations want to live abroad a sound. so in all the time, 17 only see 25 and 27 year olds doing nothing. so what are we supposed to do this time? it's better. we tell ourselves we'd be better off leaving illegally and not staying here. and there are lots of people who left to legally and managed to get their paper assignment without them on the website. improving tunisia the economy will be a key challenge for the president. otherwise, more young people, the country's future, will choose to vote with their feet. that's all for now. up next global of looks up, the housing shortages in many big cities and how empty office spaces could be

turned into homes. that's after a short break. don't forget you can get the latest news around the clock at our website. stats dw, dot com, as well as on, as on our social media accounts. i'm the head joining. thank you so much for watching. could find the can you see is what old car tires have to do with you? production has a hand on the really indeed the snow on is you to get your update innovation green the let to.
