2:37 pm
it's been two weeks now since the israeli regime started indiscriminately. bombing various areas across lebanon while continuing with genocidal enslot on gaza, in response to regime's aggression and crimes against civilians, elebanese resistance movement hezbulah has been launching retaliatory operations continuously, and here's the report: late on sunday, hazballah launched a retaliatory operation against israel's caramel base in the occupied city of haifa. the base was targeted using fatti one missiles and according to israeli military, at least 15 projectiles were fired towards the northern occupied palestinian territories. at least 10 people in the city have been injured, and there were also reports that a restaurant in haifa suffered a direct hit. hazbullah's ongoing operations
2:38 pm
against the israeli regime come in response to the regime's relentless aggression and crimes against civilians in lebanon. well, evidently this is collective punishment. which is being waged against the lebanese people, like it was waged against the palestinian people as well, this is why they are blowing updahya, that's why they are taking down residential buildings, not with regular ammunitions, no, they have decided to use munitions, chemical munitions, even which are banned in order to carry out their attacks and their strikes, the israelis are embolden, they have the full backing of the united states, the united states is not interested in any form. of a cease fire in gaza or anywhere else. on monday morning, hazbullah also launched a salvo of rockets at the occupied city of kermial and the northern occupied territories, which set off sirens in the city and in other communities across the upper galilei. the same day, the israeli
2:39 pm
military admitted to one of its soldiers being killed along the border of south lebanon during attempts of ground invasion. the resistance movement has been successful at fighting back. israeli soldiers trying to infiltrate the country's territory. recent reports indicate that at least 25 israeli soldiers have been killed and 130 injured during such attempts. the israely military present ahead with this aerial attacks across southern lebanon more than two weeks into regime's aggression against the arab country. in beirot, israely warplanes targeted several areas including a gas. in the dahia area. there's no immediate report of casualties. israely military also struck the committia in central lebanon leaving at least six people dead and number of others injured. regime says this attacks which have intensified in recent weeks target weapons depots and military infrastructure belonging to
2:40 pm
hezbulah. the lebanese health ministry says over 20 people have so far been killed in israeli attack since last october pardon most them in recent spate of israeli. air strikes, we have press tv correspondent madiam, solid on the phone for your up. hello miriam, good um afternoon to you, what's the uh latest on the ground there, sorry, go ahead, good afternoon, daniel, well the continuous course on lebanon have uh targeted areas that are as you know residential areas and all across southern suburbs of beirot in addition to uh south lebanon there has been of course additional number of civilians killed as a result of these attacks and uh the the seemingly the israelis continue uh with that uh attempt to try to target all civilian
2:41 pm
areas uh, however we have for example one instance now which is different than 2006 is that the bayroot international airport has yet so far not been attacked uh we know that this is perhaps uh as a result of the diplomatic efforts from the libanese government to allow uh foreign nationals and addition to lebanese with other nationalities to be able to leave the country. and we know that there are several uh planes that are military planes uh from various countries um uh across the world that are allowing the evacuation or working on the evacuation of many of their nationals uh and even people who have families abroad they are also uh being evacuated uh this is of course part of the efforts that are continuous we also know that uh there are all seemingly some attempts uh by the us to pull some strings in addition to to try to um enforce a certain election of
2:42 pm
a president in lebanon uh that is perhaps to the liking of the us or someone who is pro western instead of being pro resistance, as we can recall this was issue that was very significant, have focused on the fact that they need there needs to be a president who is not necessarily pro resistance, but someone who does not stop the resistance in the back, and now we hear from the major candidate. uh and as you know the president of lebanon is should be marinite christian based on the what they call the national charter and so the that the candidates sulayman francia may stress that there needs to be a patriotic president who does not stop the resistance in the back especially in light of the current developments and the fact that the israelies are trying to use anything to to have some leverage the us also as well based on um statements coming out whether from the from the pentagon or the white house, focusing on the fact that this
2:43 pm
is perhaps their opportunity to weaken the resistance and thereby weaken the the hisballah popular, the political actually political party of hisballah in lebanon, which was in a for very long time, of course it was strong when it comes to its allies, now we also see that even the sides that were perhaps not strong allies of hazballah are now even more supportive. the resistance in light of this aggression that we have uh on lebanon, the israelis of course uh say that they this is not just attempt to to target the resistance as a military uh an armed resistance, but also the people of the resistance. now of course there's been a lot the significant developments or sounds sounding all across the gilili region uh all the way towards the edges of tel aviv and so it seems that now on the anniversary of the uh alsa flood operation uh as has trust that hezballah will always be there to support the palestinian resistance and to defend lebanon,
2:44 pm
and it seems that we were going to be looking at what could be new phase in this confrontation that began on the 7th of october 2023, and with hazballah began on the 8th of october 2023, now we can see that it will perhaps reach new phase with the series of operations, the hybat operations that hazballah has begun uh retaliation seemingly for the assassination of secretary general, thank you miriam and mr. breters is also joining us historian and journalist out of hasselt uh belgium bret, welcome to to the conversation when you have uh so many countries imploring their citizens in lebanon to get out, that that's not a good a sign is it, that means that the regime is most likely behind the curtains told its western allies it's going to continue to unleash in enslot on civilian inf. structure there in beirot and elsewhere in the country, your initial thoughts? exactly, that's a very good point,
2:45 pm
and in that way, of course entity is completely contradicting its official military statements that claim that they are only targeting hezballah or what they claim to be quote and quote terrorists, of course, which is the term, the group term used for everyone whoever resists imperialism and cionism anyher in the world, but when you when you take these two things together, it it's shows in a very imminent contradiction, mean if it is literally just limited targeted bombing campaign for example against hezballah fighters and hezballah militias, at the borderline, at the line of contact, let's say, the frontline if you want to call it that, between southern lebanon and the north of designist entity, then why uh, why did the the the french government and the american government and so many other governments decide to start withdrawing their national citizens from uh from lebanon, why is there an official arrangement apparently uh to keep beirut international airport open in order to
2:46 pm
get these the foreigners out of there, that means that there is a significant fear of course amongst people amongst even governments that are friendly to tel aviv that their own citizens might be in imminent danger and of course you can if you look then with that in mind if you look at what's been going on all across beirout and and all across especially southern lebanon then that that makes a lot of sense because this these are bombing campaigns not yet maybe at of the same intensity as what we've seen in haza but it's the same concept these are destructive campaigns as was mentioned earlier with using even banned chemical ammunition. high high letality ammunition that is meant specifically to destroy entire buildings or entire blocks, entire villages. also an extra part, if it was just a limited attack against hezbullah, why did tel aviv demand the un peacekeepers and particular the irish peacekeepers that have refused to leave, why why did tel aviv demand them to vacate their
2:47 pm
position? that sounds very much like new shabran shatilla sort of massacer is is is in... make, because why else, why do you need the united nations to leave if this is just aerial rate against specific military targets? all of this, both in ghazza and in lebanon, but also in the west bank and in the the attacks against syria, they all play into a much larger scale and a long-term goal, which is of course the goal of greater israel, which has always been a zionist plan from the beginning, and especially southern lebanon and at the long run all of lebanon is part. and has always been part ever since zionism was created really has always been part of the goal of the territorial expansion goal that the zionist entity has, so the existence of lebanon itself is always a thorn in the side of of tel aviv just like the existence of the of of jordan, for example the existence of egyptian control over over the sinai peninsula, this is all territory
2:48 pm
that they claim as their erats israel, so that is eventually their goal, they want the land, they want the territory. thank you bret for your take and mariam, thank you for that update. press tv's matiam sad joining us from beirout, mr. brett yonker is joining us out of hassel, belgium. meanwile, an elderly uh palestinian has been killed during raid by israeli forces into the town of dura in the occupied west bank. 66 year old sheikh ziad abu halil was severely beaten by reaching forces during raid on his home near the city of al khalil. he later succumbed to his injuries. meanwhile, israel's military forces of storm several locations across the occupied west bank, abducting at least 10 people. at tentions have been simmering across occupied territories since esar launch as genocidal campaign on gaza back in october last year, and since then, hundreds of palestinians have been killed and over 11,100 abducted by israeli forces throughout the
2:49 pm
occupied west bank since. israel's genocidal war has not only devastated gaza, but it's also intensified violations and occupied west bank where land confiscation, water shortages and settler violence has reached alarming levels. over the past year these have combined to hightened the suffering of palestinians, as israel's inhumane policies continue to tighten grip over palestinian land and resources, as press tv's nakhamed reports. as the war on gaza rolls. into its second year, global calls for accountability grow louder. the one movement that has surged into influence during this time is the boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign, bds. a grassroots people's initiative aimed to pressuring israel to comply with international law through economic and cultural boycots. since its launch in 2005, the bds has involved into global force and
2:50 pm
amed the ongoing assault on gaza, its relevance and impact have become more profound. this approach is crucial in isolating and weakening israel, stripping it of legitimacy and curbing its regional ambitions. israel seeks dominance in west asia through diplomacy, technology and industry, but boycots and sanctions can hinder its move. recently, israel allocated over $500 million dollars to counter the international impact of the boycott movement. as a peaceful resistance, boycott unites justice seeking people from all backgrounds, making it a key tool which can be exercised by average individuals across the world against the israeli aggression. in 2023, the bds campaign targeted companies like puma and helued paccord for profiting from the occupation. over 200 organizations called for puma's divestment and 22% of european universities backed bds pulling millions from
2:51 pm
companies involved in israeli settlements. major firms like ben and jerry's and g4s ended operations in the occupied territories and european pension funds divested billions from israeli banks tied to the regime's settlement expansion. there has been. in the boycott movement, but the occupation persists because it remains profitable with little international accountability or effective sanctions. while improvements are noticeable, more effort is needed. the boycott was once more widespread, but now there's a growing popular boycot in arab and muslim countries, which we hope continues as the true nature of the occupation becomes clearer. but despite its growing momentum, the bds movement has not been without opposition. governments including the united states and germany have passed anti-bds legislations labeling the movement anti-semitic accusation denied by its supporters. as israel's military operations in gaza escalate, the influence of
2:52 pm
the bds movement has reached new heights. it's no longer just a protest. it's a global response to what many see as human rights violations, and the pressure is mounting on companies and governments alike. naqa hamed, reporting for press tv, ramallah. and yemenese, once again take to the streets to express support for the people of palestine and lebanon. rollies were held in several cities and towns including ib and northern city of saada. protesters denounced ongoing us. genocidal war on gaza, they also held yemani army for its military operations against vessels linked to zianist regime in the high seas. earlier on sunday, leader of the ansterola
2:53 pm
movement, abdul malik al huuti said his country has still much to show in his campaign against israel and its allies. yemenis have been holding weekly pro- palestine rallies since the war on gaza broke out early october last year. on the first anniversary, israel's genocidal war in gaza, cities and towns across the globe have been scenes of rallies and solidarity with palestinians. this tragedy is started with many children dead and dismembered, we have seen, we have seen this massaker live and direct. but there are many more things that have not been seen yet, there are many children who have lost their lives under the rubble, further more, there are even more children today who are fighting infections and hunger, we are here
