border in southern israel. his was benjamin netanyahu. said ahead of the strikes for you by me, my name, se recently has made it clear that our enemies should not miss judges. the internal debate in israel will not prevent us from taking action against them wherever and whenever necessary. all of us, without exception, are united on this. we have no intention of changing the status quo, the temple mount calling for calming the situation and we will take strong action against extremists. we use violence there, maybe regarding the aggression against us on the other fronts. we will strike our enemies and they will pay the price for any active aggression random you will discover again, that at moments of truth, the citizens of israel stand united and unified and back the actions of the id f and the other security services to defend our country and our people because i spoke with local reporters from garza and jerusalem for that, take on what's happening on the grounds and the expectations of residence. and so

now says you could you give us the details of was happening inside garza right this moment. yeah, i can answer that. and then garza israeli army, a land lease that a site it's been going on, but it's in infections and goes all manly or maybe been on the get to hamas and islamic jihad. but there's an ottoman said that they are been, i'm going to have mass and nobody out to places. and because of them and the people here a suddenly. and then in the same time, i put them under the a and maybe as a teacher had following attacking,

gave along launching and mini look at yesterday. and today about the guns here and a game that then the escalation is a kind of escalation, maybe will be a wide and it will get limited then only limited thought to get said that maybe that i would like to say, or just send it's message here. to hammer and it's going to be had that it has it with me. i would, i would try to get it. let's go to a nuclear and a local reporter from jerusalem. now you are in jerusalem right now. could you give us an idea of what the situations like that? yes, so here in jerusalem today, it's a bit calmer than it was the previous good day. because what happened here and now news 2 guys,

the 3 beds you can see and the outs. and then the send button on and right now in jerusalem is that the police trying to me and saying they hear the order. but these rally army is now and striking in dance and it's rarely prime minister saying he's government, i think really encourage idea. israeli army, to continue it strikes him to be much more aggressive because this government is really right, being government. and they want to show to their what there is that they can the providing their agenda and harshly responding to each are ok, that fire disease grow from guys and especially also for me, but we didn't so it for many years so so, so really knew for how do you expect the situation to progress in the coming hours?

you expect a response when the palestinians? yeah, i believe there will be a response or from the bundle or from the guys this trip or west bank or the land. it also could be as dom response, even strong, ironic, and their drugs these in libra know and are in the area. but here in israel laying goods for this government because they want this kind of scale you already. but there are a. busy anything that can jo, the sanction from the internal problems of the prime minister of government and it is good for them now that say rarely, bob denied that when there is kind of relation, there are a senior as comes after israeli officials said $34.00 rockets were fired from

southern lebanon with $25.00 of them shot down, but at least 6 others lounging inside israel. some unverified homage of footage appears to show the aftermath of the strikes in the town of slow me one walk hits reportedly stroke a gas station with stopping sensors and residential buildings also said to have been his israeli medical services say at least 3 people who've been injured, the israeli military has fired back, has been no claim of responsibility for the walk it fire from lebanese territory. israel was quick to blame her muff, which she is based in garza, the space or the northern israel near the border with lebanon has reported the being close to civilian flights, and the military forces there had been put on high alert. prime minister benjamin netanyahu house held an emergency security meeting for the 1st time since that the wife, lebanese army unit, say that found the launches and the number of rockets in the country south,

the military phase. it's now dismantling the sites. the working barrage come shortly after the lebanon based has been group promised to take what it called measures of the tensions boiled over between israelis and palestinians. at the most in jerusalem, a local reporter in bay root has the details of israel's initial response to the rocket fire from 11 on so far. residents been 1011 on i have heard and of course the missiles throughout the rocket fire is coming from israel. and a lot of them said they sounded like very, very loud blast. we know definitely that the lebanese army is on the ground just on alerts, just like if the case in israel as well, but so far and recent development. but these things are things that the often i've been through decades. but however, in today's exchange of missiles and fire,

where the heavy and the most is, in fact, since the is really worth the 1006, the exchange of fire between the israel and lebanon happens just as my leader is 9 . and he has been, has been here like he here, right. in fact, yesterday night and he's here for jobs with the officials about the israel rates on a lot the must. so it would not be any surprise if, if these rates were coming from palestinians in south lebanon, or from the lot, but no one yet has been poor for those as close to international consulting rasmussen. now many thanks for joining us on the program at 1st of all, i'd like to ask what you make of the escalation. and the latest being as well strike on garza is a direct response to the walk in fire from southern lebanon. well, i think the israel will claim the yahoo, i think the,

i think the little excess of the bar the check into the counter attack. and, and let's say that the, a lot of the, the issues happened with the, the, the unrest that the, of the mosse. so they kind of initiated things. it initially i didn't think there was any anyone hills knows that there is now, but i think the counter from israel was overly and and this is just unfortunate. this is a holy time both the passover for israel were also from a don or for the the muslim community as well. so it's not a good time, but i think this is the, i think the escalation is probably intentional to distract away. some of the

political are going through right now is when i was quick to blame her nice for the rocky to talk from southern lebanon. but isn't garza quite far away from lebanon? how could her must have been responsible if it came from lebanon, lebanon? yeah, i think, i think that the, i don't know, there's a lot of mystery on this here. it actually me who know but i think is really always looked at the blame for the role of this, the turmoil and stuff. although i don't see him often as, as active as they have been in the past. so it, you know, we don't have the evidence, we don't really know all the facts on this. we've, we've got accusation. we've got responses and obviously escalated. the escalation is the benefit of them yahoo, because it takes away from their internal, very, very serious internal conflicts. they have going are, you know,

disagreement they've got going on with right now. it's also this comes off to the idea of re to be alex and mosque in jerusalem twice in 2 days. do you think that could have sparks the escalation that we're seeing now? definitely could have, and i think that that may have been a spark there. i mean, what, i mean, what probably the most, the worst time to actually make raise on a, on a holy must you know, so it's almost like you made the raids on the mar, hoping there was going to be some type of reaction. so it's not a good situation. i think i think the, i think some political undertone working the by background on that will be keeping close on the situation. many thanks for speaking to as a great get your thoughts on things and national consultant about this. and this comes off to

a 2nd knife of violence who up to did the mosque in east jerusalem on wednesday with his waiting for his kicking palestinians out of one of his lamps, holy sides. the media is on social media, so he's ready. trip storming the famous most arresting hundreds of injuring dozens more. israeli police used stone grenades and fine weather for palestinian worshippers during the raid. and one of video you can see is ready please smashing down doors and windows to enter the most with 1st rate on the happened on wednesday morning when is waiting for the storms the most using gas and beating palestinian worshippers. the idea alleged that dozens of young men had thrown fireworks and stones into the mosque and then tried to fire tape themselves inside jerusalem based sponsor activists. amir needs law, he told us that alex scott is

a sensitive issue for all our, including lebanon. we should not limit trip on, on to that action to what's happening on, on the most i think this is maybe the start or for their why did the action not necessity in terms of via the rocket ball there. but you can see the tension is happening also. last night. there are cities, demonstrations about escaping in the door then in capital. we can see also that's a lot of tension is happening in inter can, is some bull and other cities. so it has been proven repeatedly about touching the narrative of ok, so most is the able to disconnect things not only internally inside the palestinian areas, but also in the region. in general,

tragedy has once again struck the russian city of donia square. these 4 civilians have been killed and 6 more wounded and the latest ukrainian shilling, thus, according to local officials, i want you might find the following images distressing. several people died on this fault once on the streets of a residential neighborhood. off the ukrainian shells landed the scattering, shrapnel across a wide area key of troops find a barge of heavy walk in the city, hitting a civilian con repair center. as according to rushes, investigate 15, i think the attorneys foreign ministry has blamed nato for the ukraine crime. this is baking pushes back calls from the us, lead block to take sides over the conflict. lisa, come down to me. as for the responsibility on the ukrainian is sure, i think that the united states and the military blocks, such as nita should take responsibility. nita has no right to criticize china or put pressure on it. meanwhile,

during his meeting with president change in pinging china and manual micron accused moscow of an escalation saying nuclear weapon should not be based on foreign territory. referring to the recent deal that russia eggs with bell reverse. those friends shares the opinion that nuclear weapons should be completely excluded from this conflict. that all international treaties on this issue should be respected and under no circumstances should nuclear weapons be deployed outside the territories of nuclear powers, especially in europe. in this regard, it is necessary to remind every one of the responsibilities in particular russia, which a few days ago announced its desire to deploy such weapons to bel roofs which does not comply with the obligations it is assumed to you and to us and to international law, however, this contradicts the policy of some european members of nato, which have been hosting us nukes for decades. washington has been basing its b 61 tactical nuclear weapons in germany, italy, belgium, the netherlands,

and turkey, and a number of american war heads in europe is estimated as around 150. we want things, mcclellan didn't manage to change it. she jim pink stance on the ukraine conflict and set china against russia. while both the president said they aim to restore in peace. the chinese leader once again stated, bating strong partnership with moscow hasn't changed so long as all off on, you know, chinese, ready together with france to called the world community to be rational and restrained regarding the ukraine. an issue, as well as to avoid actions that lead to a deterioration or even complete loss of control or the situation. china is present shipping, of course had, and t r had to reiterate any, no, china's position regarding they, russia, ukraine, prices has remained the same. daddy's you know, to promote peace talks, and i remember that he earlier mentioned that, you know, there is no simple solutions to

a complicated questions that he refers to the ongoing russia, ukraine crisis. so i think a back alley of as long as the 2 sides agreed to, you know, promote peace talks and, or political settlements are eventually, you know, there was the, eventually, there, well come to a less, a mutual resolution which will, you know, mutually benefit to hopefully to most of the country, most of the countries and not only for you, cran, russia about all, but also for the european countries. blogger and political analysts to alex report to phase paris is in no position to leg to china on diplomacy, especially when protests in france are being violently suppressed by police. well, i think john is the world leader of diplomacy at the moment. here's mac ron, who rolls in debate being trying to give you the chinese some advice on trying to, you know, calm the tensions in parts of the world. while back at home in paris,

he unleashed his gendarmerie police force on people that were trying to have a better livelihood as they go into the pension years. and he brutally beat journalists the at his john damari police attacked protesters. and this is the man that he's in pena's supposed to take advice for, you know, china is a little bit smarter than that, and they've underestimated the power of diplomacy, which china is leading the world right now as well. president macaroni is visiting china back in france, union work as a taking to the streets again for the 11th the official day of nationwide protests against the government's pension reform. ah demonstrated hampton routed vehicle traffic near the campus of main. apple with m put, police responded with tear gas. the clash has come amid

a deadlock in debate between the ma crone governments on french groups that wants the pension reform scraps. on wednesday, union officials met the prime minister if a talk switch. the activists later branded a failure. c, western ukraine, where the local governments of laval phase, the history of the orthodox church in the city, is now over as well to the authorities, demolished the last remaining wooden church. the government claims the building had been constructed illegally earlier anti over dog activist stones and seized another church in the city. local police officers were supported using force to help me, parishioners from the building. this comes from it and nationwide crackdown bundle and he's governmental with ukrainian over dogs church with similar instance happening in different regions. we discuss the control of a c with press tv journalist, johnny mila, who has extensive reporting experience in ukraine. and i was in kiev in

2016 and i interviewed some one moment names, but interviewed someone now who was talking about this very issue, the increasing authoritarianism of ukrainian government persecution of religion and people i gotta be, you know, being arrested by the ukrainian intelligence agency any, this is happening right across the korean society in the opening stages. last year, bonds, media outlets of political parties. so if you're ukranian and you criticize the ukrainian government, if you criticize nieto, you run the risk of being arrested even if the social media posts. so there's really no freedom of expression in ukraine on this, these attacks on the church, a part of that. as comes after the bishop in charge of the country's biggest orthodox monastery, the key of picturesque elantra was arrested early this week. the monastery has come

on the fierce pressure from kiev last month. philip's keys, government ordered local monks to leave their homes, and the law for most of them refused to go into still resisting the authorities, calling the actions unlawful. meanwhile, moscow was accused us of backing the religious crackdown in ukraine. according to russia, washington is seeking to drive a wedge between ukraine's orthodox believers as part of its anti russian foreign policy. tony miller again, save the time from the orthodox church. a passive key of this information policy. the church, of course, they say they feel that it's connected to russian. anything connected with russia is that that's why they're going off to the church, but it's just one of many, increasing human rights violations by the government. what is clear is that the ukrainian government with the essence of need, so it's promoting violence against john as foreign western journalists facing jail in europe and sanctions. not fearing assassination. we don't have the sense of the accounts in this information, which is

a ukrainian government agency sponsored by the government. they are now lighting allies, putting people on blacklist they write absurd, lies about myself. fits out pictures of me on the infinite, make accusations against me. if it is itself a sense of this information, and then these lies that are written about western journalists, and i'm so russian journalist as well, that done in order to promote violence against them. and why is this being done? is being done because there are 2 sides to this complex anybody's been in bath. i spent a long time there myself has no choice. but to report the truth that's happening there, which is ukraine is intentionally selling civilians on the vast majority of people who don't yet support russia. i no longer want to be part of ukraine. people just want peace and this is not being told to you appear in audiences they, there's a feeling that the only way to create peace is the way the battlefield will know if we listen to civilians on both sides stepping to the front lines. it's piece that, that after that will mean you create giving up, there is

a peaceful solution to be how to china is becoming involved. at some point, we're going to have to get there. and moscow president vladimir putin, his hosting his belly, russian counterpart, alexander lucas. shank, for a 2nd day of talks with numerous topics on the table, including the development of the bilateral union states. both ladies have focused on the conflict in ukraine, which they say, stoked by the west. is what the bell of russian president had to say. sonya pointed to so we have realized that the west is not our friend in the international arena. our countries are pursuing a coordinated foreign policy, our co operation in the field. a foreign policy is an example for other departments . an effective system of defense and security of the allied state has been created within which the regional grouping of troops and the unified regional air defense system are successfully functioning. the steps taken to strengthen border security

have made it possible to significantly increase the protection of the union state from international terrorism. uncontrolled migration flows, smuggling weapons, ammunition, drug trafficking and illegal economic activities. the initial statements from both the russian president and the bell russian president here at the meeting of the supreme council of the union state focused on a lot of similar themes. more recently we heard from vladimir putin who said that it, that there have been a lot of achievements in terms of cooperation between the 2 union states in the defense industry at, in building 80, a capable of force that can defend both a union states from terrorism. and this is something that also alexander lucas jenko said during his initial statement, saying that they, the both countries had successfully created a military force that can successfully defend these 2 union states from terrorism. specifically, a from terrorism, as well as drug trafficking and the trafficking of weapons. he brought up the fact

that this unending flow of weapons into ukraine has to a certain extent spilled over into bell roost through russia's border regions. this is something that the forces connected to the union state have been able to get a handle on. and as we heard earlier, lucas jenko also commented on the fact that both russia and bell rou, see i to i, in terms of foreign policy, alexander lucas jenco, even said that right now, the west is beefing up nato's defense is more than ever because they've come to the understanding that the economic blockade involving sanctions that they deployed against belarus and russia have essentially failed. and now they're moving to this next step of trying to rely more on military intimidation, more than anything else. so that's basically a wrap up of both. what vladimir putin and alexander lucas jenko have said so far at this meeting. keep on top of all the latest updates by visiting our website,
