hello and welcome to press tv spotlight, i'm marza hashemi, thanks so much for being with us. well, the lebanese resistance movement, hazbollah has entered new phase in its retaliation against the israeli regime. that's according to the hezbollah deputy secretary general sheikh naim qassem, the israeli regime committed terrorism against thousands of has. members and ordinary citizens in lebanon last week and now hezbullah has answered with the blast hitting mini barracks and other areas including inside of the city of ha well stay with us as we take a look at the latest situation between the resistance movement hazbullah and the zientist regime. i'd like to welcome my guests to the program. out of bayrut, radwan

rizg, political analyst and out of belfast, author, commentator and west asia expert cyib shaf, welcome both of you to the program, i'd like to start it off in beirot, i mean your thoughtswan, when the hezbollah deputy chief says that the war or the uh retaliation has enter new phase, what do you think this means? well, i rather call it a return of ahead or operation, because now we we know that we all know and we understand that we are in a state of war, either we admit that or not, since the 8th of october in order to support the gaz resistance, senior resistance

in gaza, so uh now the lebanese resistance are involved since the 8th of october and it's legit. for the lebanese to support their allies or their the their you know the the the palestinian fighters in in palestine because after all we are fighting the same enemy for the same cause and the uh we all know understand that the israelis were preparing themselves since years ago to invade the southern lebanon in order to push back the... from northern litane river, so it's a war taking place, escalating sometimes to levels where it, it reveals that we are going into a major war, sometimes it cools

down, this is the fact of of war, but the israelis have they have declared and announced so many times on many spokesman of the israeli. governments that they want to eliminate hizballah totally and they don't want any resistance to be laid on their northern borders, so this is not going to happen, the war now it's taking place in lebanon, not only because supporting the palestinian in in in gaza, no it's we are fighting the same war and the same the same enemy and the the enemy which is called the israel israeli governments were planning to evacuate or eliminate gaza from its population by displacing or killing and and destroying gaza strip and the turn was coming

to us in lebanon and we all understand that either the some lebanese people admit that or not, but it's a fact that they it's the plan the... government: okay, well sab, your thoughts, i mean it has been almost a year since the israeli genocide intensified against palestinians in gaza, and of course the regime hasn't reached any of its stated goals, so if the zionists have not been able to defeat hamas with all its limitations, i mean, why would it want, why would this regime want to expand this war to lebanon and against hazbullah, because this entity? is going through total panic now, we can see every day there is investigation on this, investigation on the lots of investigation happening to the failures, they suffer from intelligence, army, militarily, politically all of that from stemmed from the 7th of

october, and the the designist entity, their leadership, now the pointing as well the finger, that's why they failed in gaza and they still for a whole year cannot s achieve any of their goals were declared in gaza and then pin point their fingers at the lebanese resistant as well because they're engaged third of its forces at the borders so they they they see that is give them or restricted their hands from having all their army is focused at gaza and and and from this they they they cannot uh they achieve as they say the their goals in gaza, the goals of victing or eliminating hamas or the palestinan resistant from the eliminating any opportunity in the future for any resistance

forces to to to be or to represent any kind of threat against the the zinest entity or their gaza. area as they say in the same time shifting the people from north gaza to the center and to thanunis as well, that's where the focus of the people will be in the gaza strip, the rest will be buffer zones, and this is to to enable them to do all of that, they need to destroy the palestinian resistance, they cannot destroy till today we witness the palestinian resistance still engaging them, the palestinian resistance can do that, while there is a support from the north the northern alliance like the lebanese resistance or the uh the capabilities which is uh unleashed by the yeminis when the palestine resistance cannot reach tel abib the yemen reach tel abib hisballah reach tel

abib and destroyed uh the the unit 8,200 which is the brain of the military intelligence uh the iraqi is resistance start, so that connection and that unique organization and unity between the resistant factions represented huge obstacle to the zinus institute. to be able to achieve any of his goals in gaza and that's give the palestinian resistance more time to be able to duck deep instagram and direct massive blows and design entity in the war of attression which is waging in gaza and the same thing, this is what is the lebanese resistance is doing, the lebanese resistance is is acting in a calm uncalculated manner, they don't react to the wave. of terror mass terror the design entity conducted the the

assassination of lebanese leaders, the massages which the zin entity direct and say now we're killing lebanese military leaders the resistance, this is mean in the future we will target the political leadership unless you stop supporting gaza, we will continue that right, what one uh red one, we saw the regime resort to electronic terrorism, last week, and i want your assessment of that, i mean, is that a sign of desperation because of seeing um, how hazbullah has dealt with the regime during this, almost last year, i mean, your assessment of why they played that card, if you want to say, at this point in time, well, first of all, i don't think that it's only the israelis could do that, i think there is... is don't have the technology to do that, i believe so that's the british and

the americans who have done that in order to support the the israelis in their in their struggle, searching for some kind of victory, because you know their their act in the field was so disappointing and they couldn't achieve anything on the ground and now the... stuck in the mud of of gaza and they have suffered from the lebanese resistance on the on the borders also and they couldn't do anything at all on the ground, so uh that's why i believe that's due to the american tremendous pressure was made on the on the lebanese resistance and the lebanese government to separate the both sides from supporting each other in this battle. so i believe that's almost hochstein, the representative of united states in the middle

east carried lots of threatening to the lebanese government and the lebanese resistance, either ordering them to giving them some orders either to do that, or so this all came, i believe from an american american british technology in the name the israelis and now we can see late in this afternoon the israelis have denied any involvement in this act and they they were not uh they were not involved in it and they didn't do it so what would they do that or say that so i believe this is the israelis and the americans and the british have all together have cooperated to do such massacre in lebanon but i believe that this is failed and they didn't achieve what they were targeting for, i believe that's the the people of of lebanon in the in the street are

more supportive and more determined to support the the the resistance in lebanon standing behind the the leaderships of the resistance and they are willing to go into this war as long as it needs so now the israel is uh i think i believe the timing... was uh was the last hope to separate both sides from each other uh hoping that they could achieve that they were very disappointed because it it fired back on them and now they are escalating the war and now they they are suffering more and more even they have they have the ability to hit and occur many massacers in in lebanon uh especially a three this in one week in beirut and elsewhere in the south and bica valley,

but now what we have seen as return from the lebanese resistance on hitting ha and many other air bases and military bases were so showing and proves that the resistance have still many hidden cards in its hand and it can't bring it this this enemy down to its knees, now they believe that they must believe and must understand that we are, nothing can bring us down to our needs and the... one who is going to raise the white flag, i believe the israelis, right? well, so i mean, you heard redwan talk about uh, that the israeli regime is trying to deny that they had anything to do with the electronic terrorism, um, let's talk about that, because there seems to be lots of fear, um, especially uh, we have seen the of course

resistance and hitting ha and the amount of missiles and drones. that has not been seen since 2006, do you think that they miscalculated? do you think that they actually thought that they could paralyze hezbolah um by those terrorist acts, the latest terrorist acts committed against them? you see, my own take on that, it's a gamble they took and it's fire back big time on them, it's panicked the western markets whose electronic markets, even the electric cars market and all of that. people now worried who's having ipads or computers or cell phones or pages or even electric cars, what from the future any rogue state like the zinus entity can direct a massive blow at their economy, now they even i was talking about yesterday in a conference in here, people in here in the west uh their their

companies are worried now about the people on the global south won't be ' interested that much in trusting the the chain of supply from the west with the electronics and this is will have implication in many other things in the future will strengthen the the chinese market the south asia market maybe the russians that's in its own but let's say one these things which we notice i notice myself or my own take with the pager they i think they wanted to flush people out from their hiding and this is i think this is my own take when they they use the this the new these pages will be deployed such where and some people will take uh some of these things and that's when some of these personalities especially the leaderships from radwan brigades were injured and aqil and wahabi and the other they were aq was hospitalized and

after he released from the hospital people are visiting h. want to make sure he's all right, then they direct the the blow at the building and they say there was a meeting of the commanders and the stuff like that, this is how sneaky they are, and in that way see many thousands of the peoples injured, how many people being killed, children, doctors, nurses, hospitals be, but this is a mass terror campaign, and the second day we witness as well from the west, they linked each name of the... victims or this one targeted an obation against the american embassy in 1983, this one targeted an operation against the marines and so they justifying their own supplying thesiness entity as radan said with the information

because all of this hype about thesign entities capabilities of gathering intelligence and i think it's all rubbish, the the the planes on the skies of gaza are a british spying on the resistance in the name of trying to spot where is the prisoners, that's the the name, and the the mercenaries is the french, the american delta unit on the ground in gaza, the whole west gather and spighting with the zinist entity and cannot eliminate a small strip of land like gaza, that's that's that's part of it, and and and the other part. the design entity going to to lebanon and try to now escalate to to provoke a harsher reaction from the the lebanese resistance who in the 25th of august directed a strategic blow at at their gallilot military base and one one one one mile away

from tel aviv and eliminated the unit 8200 today they are showing. us with these terror acts like their intelligence is is is alive and kicking and vital to their own blows and directing hits and look what they doing in lebanon, they scared the world from their monstrosity and the the the people around the world they know there is an western fingers in that, how how come they cannot condemn the killing of the civilians, the killing of children, the the so many angel is being... affected on lebanese doctors and stay with me, stay with me, let me get rid one back in on this discussion, i mean throughout each phase of hezbullah's war against the... regime, we've witnessed new weapons being used by the resistance against uh the zionists, mean your thoughts on what we have seen the last couple of days, because

hazbullah has used two different missiles that they had never revealed before, and they still say that there's so much else left that the regime still has not seen. your thoughts, red one? well, they miss that you know being. used in this morning attack, it's after 12 o'clock midnight and the 6x o'clock in the morning are the smallest in the biggest missiles group, because they have a smaller than that, and this is, i believe this is the smallest in the biggest rockets group, and it can reach up to 75 to 100'. 25 km with 100 and 200 kilos of explosive warhod and that means showing may be the resistance still

trying to make the israelis more rational and understand that we what we show you is just very small sample of our capability if we want to do the to do so so if you don't understand and don't learn the lesson, the next retaliation or the next attack is going to be with the different missiles, with the bigger war head, with more destructive power to the missiles with longer range, and no point in the occupied palestine is out of the reach of the resistance rockets, so now the americans maybe are trying... to hold back a bit and they are trying to to recount what they what they have because they think they

thought that by occurring or doing this massacer killing ibrahim aakhil and his comrades in in dahya could have brought down the resistance down to its knees and after especially after the pasures attack and and the uh tokiwoki attack, but that did, as i said, did fire back on them, and now the resistance show them that nothing can stop us from continuing our policy, fighting this brutal enemy, and we all we know and we understand that he is willing to do more and more massicres and nothing will stop him because morality and no dignity of this, this... monster enemy in the middle east, well sip, i want to have about a minute left, i mean, i want to talk about significance though of hezbollah hitting, targeting and

hitting hyfa, and also the type of reaction that we're seeing from designist settlers, throughout the occupied northern territories, where do you think this is going to go uh, the the the resistance is calculating its reactions, and the resistance... knows the zin to try to to drag it down into a reaction which is kind of provoke a war, that kind of war, we hear the news, the american don't want it in that, no, the americans wants, i believe the americans want kind of comprehensive war even in in in the region, which is engages most of the resistant actors in there, and this is the aim of it, they want the then to..." the the holy grail as they say, to direct a blow at iran to eliminate the the the plants, the nuclear plants, the iranian nuclear plants, because

design and netanyahu himself and his war cabinet, they cannot feel safe, not just because of the resistance in gaza and the mainly while there is a program, nuclear program like that, given iran the status of a global power, not just a regional power, this is what the americans do want to not to want to see and this is why we can see american deployment of their vessels coming and their aeroplanes carriers in in in the east of mediterranean, but let me say this as well, this morning i was in the afternoon morning, yeah was listening to radio tv seconds really, it's a sign entity channel interviewing an arabic journalist about the rockets landing on hifa. the north of haifa, he said, no, these rockets landed in my house, his name ali zebak is an israeli iron dome rocket which you fire in the arab villages and we don't have any threat from

whatsoever come into our dos, so this is can say what when they had the golan heights and kill 10 kids and trying to blame hiz was at the same scenario, they're trying to create so sorry to interrupt you, but we really are out of time, appreciate being with me, political analyst out of beirout, author out of belfast and thank you viewers for being with us on another spotlight, hope to see you right here tomorrow, goodbye

the headlines hasbala says it is ready to face all military possibilities as it launches major retaliatory missile and drone strike on israel. the united states says military escalation with hezballah is not in israel's best interest, calling for a diplomatic solution to the tensions and more palestinian civilians were killed in gaza as the israeli regime continues air and artillery strikes on various areas across the blockaded territory.
