the, the rest is lower and ukraine on fusions from klein starts october 26th on d, w. the . this is the w news life from the israel says is lauren stewart, tyler trent as strikes against iran in response to months of continuous attacks from the regime in iran against the state of his right. now, these real defense forces is conducting precise strikes on military targets in iran . that israel is always focused on who's also said is his country's rights tend security to respond to a reading integration the

i that i'm jack power and welcome to the chart. we begin with breaking news eyes of iran, where israel says is being conducting precise strikes on military targets. light explosions were reported around the capital to wrong is really all these folks pass . and daniel had already gave a statement on the times. he says they come in retaliation to the barrows of ballistic missile. is that a wrong fired? as israel earlier this month, light explosions have been also heard and reported near the syrian capital, damascus, the fema, whole name. okay, let's have a little bit more of a listen to what head guard, daniel hood, gary had to say in his statement, the regime in iran, then it struck susan's origin, has been relentlessly attacking israel since october 7th on 7 fronts, including direct attacks from a ronnie and story like every other sylvan country in the world,

the state of israel has the right and the duty to respond. our defensive and offensive capabilities are fully mobilized. we will do whatever necessary to defend the state of israel and the people of the piece. okay, i'm doing 9 by dw is me at least corresponding tanya crane. but she's joining us from jerusalem. tell you, i think the soonest that statement came out. we've actually had a little bit more information now. is that correct? yeah, more information, but also the information is by the spares at this point. but visiting based on media reports right now that there were at least 3 waves of attacks in the course. as since the had this statement, some reports say that this might be concluded. now, but we do not have an official conformation, the only official information we have at the moment that the prime minister

benjamin netanyahu is holding a security assessment right now at the defense ministry in tel aviv, together with the hudson of the army and the defense minister to assess the situation right now where they can also say they have been so far, no changes to the home front, a guidelines. these are guidelines for the public for people here to understand, you know, if the threat coming in, if they should be staying close to showed us. now what we've been seeing unfolding over the past couple of hours is they were 1st explosions reported in a, in and around a 10 wrong. and that's what was followed shortly after that by a statement by that is really military as saying that it is conducting precise strikes on military targets. and that's the key words here in a room that was shortly after 2 a. m a no co time. and since then we also heard of state media in

iran reporting that as some military targets there were target also these reported a strikes in damascus. now the key point is here, what has been targeted? and there's very little information at the moment coming out. but what's being said to him to is really media is that there were scores of targets and facilities for manufacturing, a ballistic missiles and drones and ballistic missile launches possibly. and also some of the a defense capability. so what we understand is red didn't target of nuclear or oil, a facilities in iran, but you know more, more details are also coming in and we have to wait and see to understand the scope and the scale of this attack that they've been seeing here. the retarded yet retaliatory attack that we've been seeing over the past hours. and you mentioned

the prime minister benjamin netanyahu holding that meeting is where i was fighting on to other friends already in garza and also in 11 on what do you think these re, the government is pursuing here with these attacks on iran as well in this statement earlier by the army, the military made it very clear that they have every right and to you to, to respond to a wrong and attacks as to described since the tire attacks on october a 7. and they themselves say that in a multi front more on a 7 a from the snow, this retaliatory attack tonight doesn't come as a surprise. and it was, it came now off to iran, attacked on october, 1st, the drawings about $200.00 ballistic missiles. and that in itself was in retaliation at the time for the coming of how mazda is meant, honey, a into ron. as well as the a targeted us as a nation of how small i need to,

how send this by law has spell out being a proxy of yvonne. so it was expected that is row with then retaliated to it, so it took them now about 3 weeks. and this was, you know, it was not a matter of if, but when we understand that the green light was given in the course of a friday evening to go ahead with this. this comes of course, up against the back to it. we could say we're a longstanding shadow award that'd be seen over the years between yvonne and is ro, but rich folk pro out in the open basically last a pro. when iran for the 1st time attacked is run from it. so it was drones and ballistic, midsize at that time, as i said, and retaliation for and is really a talk on an embassy compound in damascus. so what we're seeing right now is actually to continuation of that a very dangerous, a tit for tat. and of course,

no eyes also on the bottom right now, how they will re target to this latest attack by is right now that certainly depends. you know, we will see in the coming of has more information coming out of what is right, what were, what the targets were there and the skin to scope with this attack? have we had any reaction from the wrong? yeah. how is toronto and its proxy, as you mentioned in organizations and groups like has the uh, how are they likely to respond as well. what you're seeing right now is basically what a wrong in a state media is a publishing on, on it's, it's, it has been saying that it was a limited attack. the wherever reports as saying that there were some of the military facilities attacked around a tear on we don't have that mentioned that the ad defenses were activated. so we don't have that much information yet to that has been no official response. what

we know off on uh from yvonne. yeah it's, but that has been of course, a lot of discussion about that. you know, how will yvonne re tell you to that that depends certainly on the target. so it depends certainly, whether this is now concluded from as well side of whether this will continue this, getting the scope, as we said, and you know, they could be a new version of responds at the moment. we're waiting to hear whether there will be any changes in the home phone that could give an indication. and of course as a task and not just come from yvonne itself, but also from yvonne's proxies. i mean, we've already having across border attacks of course, uh, between now that is my launch the ground operation, olson, southern living on obviously that has been going on between has the line is very for many, many months now. the from the a tax cost for the attack. so we will see certainly this will not stop right now.

or there could be a tax from a proxies in the back from the who sees and young. and so everything is right now out in the open. i think it's still too early to say we have to wait and see how this will unfold and to understand a bit more about the scope of this latest retaliation. and what kind of response we could possibly a see in the coming hours, or whether this would be a conclude just by then tanya, we're really, really grateful to have you keeping us. the key thing is up to date from jerusalem . tanya kramer, that release correspond. okay, let's move on nice to dw reports and stuff, and simon's, he's joining us from washington dc to bring in the american perspective. what's the response that phone from the white house? the lighthouse is edmunds to emphasize that it has no part, not participating us, is not participating in any way or form on any level in this is really military

operation. administration is key not communicating this because they don't want the wrong has to miss understand anything. however, i also can let you know that the biden harris administration is brief in real time . that means the president's president biden is priest in real time. he's not in the white house and he come a lot. harris mice president is brief in real time. she's on the campaign trail, holding speeches, but knows about what's going on. apparently, as reports indicate there were now 3 ways of protects against iran is tonya said, we don't know is that was it? but the reports indicating that with this 3, a tech waste of is rarely aircraft, that the operation is over. let's see how this will develop. however, again, stressing here the white house a aware be for want of this see involved in, not the planning, but in making sure that the scaling, the scope of this retail a drawer action of israel is not to the disliking of the united states. what that

means is escalation prevention or framing of a possible escalation and b know infrastructure targets. i like to energy infrastructure targets only military targets. let's see what daylight brings. and if toronto iran is about to confirm that only military targets were actually hit. yeah, we're going to get more information about that as we, as we move through the coming hours and potentially days. what about sort of us deliveries of weapons to israel? the context of this wedge is the relationship between israel and the united states states. stand right now, specifically in relation in lights of this new wave of attacks that these ratings have been conducted in iran. you are very important on the stands you. that's the ground level, is that the united states has said many, many times, and stands by this problem is to defend israel and to back israel up to a half. it's back when it defends itself against any enemies from wherever in the

region others outside of the region. regional players, local players, sports, state players, iraq has ball law. how much is that throughout the united states is, and that's the position of the biden harris administration, as well as the political contender for president donald trump, who wants to become president again, coming less than 2 weeks is that's the the statement. and that's the steady fest position of them. however, in this incident, specific incident, the u. s. was deemed to know that there were weapons deliveries, f sixteens fight, adjust the different parts deliveries. there was the delivery of this so called fab system. that's a terminal high altitude missile defense system in which we came with 100 u. s. military personnel who run this. so all of this was given and given to israel for the u. s. to make sure that they have a say on how israel or influence,

at least on how is wireless planning and conducting this operation, at least that was the idea by the united states or from the united states. how this will pan out is everybody's best guess the escalation level here is the most important part. the u. s. is concerned about a global real not, not a global regional conflict, but a bigger regional conflict. nobody the in the united states wants war between israel and iran directly, or a blow up of the region. nobody wants space. that's what you hear from the administration. officials behind close door, but also more or less officially. nobody wants this. of course. no real does have any impact for future actions by these rarely and iran responding. now to this returning your action by is drill. that's everybody's guess. i don't know that i don't know. and of course i don't think that the u. s. will have any insight on that either. yeah, i know what of this playing into those elections coming in less than 2 weeks?

definitely. thank you so much for stuff in simon's dw reporter in washington dc. we're really grateful for your insights. okay, here's a recap of what we know of ideas. maybe a tax on iran so far is rose public bro. costa says the tax on iran all over off the 3 waves hit the country as well as military spokes passed and said pris precise strikes. hitting military targets the us as cool. the attacks an act of self this defends us. officials say israel informs washington in advance of the attacks and iran has canceled flights on all routes until further notice and has closed its space in response to the attacks. okay, now i'm going to bring in all the diagrams. she's in iran aspect with the washington based thing time the atlantic time. so it's really great to have you with us. she's also the editor of the kind of source, iran sourced blog. i q rates

a for the we can use left to the rain this. this is how do you assess the scale of the is really attack so far from what we know so far as well as you know that it's over for now, but we really won't know how bad the response was until the day is to come. when there's more information readily available or through intelligence from what we're seeing from some of the state media, a commentary and social media, a commentary coming out of your on is that all is well and nothing really happened . but for the wrong hands on the ground that we're able to witness or hear you, ronnie, an air defense go off the way it did. um, it was not something for them to ignore. and so for now, we're going to have to wait and see what that exactly looks like in the coming days . i'm. they were expecting this attack because it was bring.
