the, the distressing images from lebanon, where at least 9 people have been reported killed at over 2000 danger dr. pagers used by his bullet explode on mast lebanese officials, and the militant group itself are blaming israel. sentence arise between the us executives and workers at tech guides, ibm and indonesia, for the companies from continued partnership with israel, with local employees signaling their support for account. i'm sending in front of the ibm office building located in the center on your card. recently,

lewis has been awarded a series of contract drawn technology support centers for the answer. i'll email it to reach a member of the extremist ukrainian. i. dar battalion calls for the countries bio labs to be restored. thing, tens of millions of russians could be killed by the weapons created in those best number to find as washington times or t on met sap platforms and calls for global restrictions south africa. and then the refuse to box for us. that's worldwide truck died on the basis or to international. my name's unit illegal of 30 minutes of using dues starts. now. we begin with the latest developments following a series of pager explosions across lab and on at least 9 people have been reported . killed an over 2000 injured after their pun,

health communication devices. somebody exploded that coming in from the lebanese health ministry. the pages are widely used. bike has bola and many of its finders were victims of the glass. the militant group along with officials and b roots are blaming israel for the simple, tedious explosions. hospitals helping overloaded with the wounded blood banks rapidly opening across the nation and reported all the homos give us some insight from the capital city right here. and we just have some of those and i was finding the su 4 is very limited period before everybody's cited. they're all in a town who i'm the saint bernard, there's little kids and also provide as much assistance to the wounded as loss of the sale of health as well. 3 as all as 3 key rod system account, i've stood side by side, the lead incentive properties in this around the and started moving costs putting

pads as well as medical assistance on the field. and within the hospitals, everybody was rich. all citizens was actually building multiple bike donation stations, multiple hospitals helping there. and uh and uh, or even uh, prepare such an additional 10 stations to be able to browse and take care of that. and as we said, some people could be making dates on this matter. well, around a rock on syria where more than a dozen people were also wounded from exploding pagers have condemned the legend as really a talk. incidentally, the usaa said it was not involved in the incident ortiz team across the region brings us more details. and especially israel hasn't claims responsibility. there

are no comments coming from the idea of either these really arm is literally silent . and we also hear that israel's national security council has called on his really ministers to refrain from commenting on the attack. as a result, nothing coming from is really politicians either pull, the attack comes, has pensions boil at stays really lebanese border where we are right now. is really officials more and more often make it clear that a stronger military response is coming from is really side. and here's what the country's defense minister had to say. the one who just weeks ago claimed that israel is not ready for another front in the north. the possibility for an agreement is running out as bullet continues to tide south to home us, and refuses to end the conflict. therefore, the only way left to ensure the return of israel's northern communities to their homes will be via military action. it is clear that we might expect even further and more dramatic escalation. some is where the media now speculates that within

the next hours we might expect mess of strikes from the lebanese side. meanwhile, northern communities prepare a for a possible retaliation. like here, i'm right now in the city of kitty, at someone that level known as just behind the small and behind me, i have to say that it hasn't been said here since last october, when his butler joined him mazda and confront in israel. but it still could be much worse and of course local residents, those who are still staying here and very much concerned about those escalation that is still coming. and as a result, we have a situation. when officially, the full scale operation has not been approved or declared, it's not. there is no war, but it is guessing that direction in leaps and bounds. this is the largest cyber attack that has the less faced in its history. and ever since the start of the conflict between israel and gaza getting back to october of 2023. we have the,

has the law officials, as well as lebanese officials and provided a statement suggesting that israel was behind the attack. after examining all the fact occurring data and available information about the terrible attack that took place. we hold these really enemy, fully responsible for this criminal aggression which also targeted civilians and led to a large number of casualties including debts. the lebanese government condemns these rightly attack the responsibility for israeli attacks lollies with the international community in its 1st statements as the last side, that's an investigation will be launched, that they will get to the bottom of the nature of the attack. how, what happened and why it happened for the most part. but what we're looking at right now is a different strategy that is being used by these really military. we understand that lebanon's health ministry also issued a statement suggesting that civilians were also targeted as a result of this attack. so that really leaves 2 scenarios that are gaining traction on social media as well as the popular figure among analysts and cyber

security experts, which suggest that it was either a cyber warfare attack that was targeting these devices. because the reality is that as well luck does have protocols in place to ensure that the device's self destruct if they are ever apprehended by use rarely intelligence officials. so the 1st option would be that is really tapped into the transmitting signals and the towers that are essentially erected throughout the country topped into those targeted those devices. and as a result exploded. but the one thing that does remain constant is looking at the video footage that was provided and suggest that the devices were in one way or another strapped with explosives and not your typical electrical fire or battery exploding. and that really leaves the reason for the 2nd alternative, which is uh, there is a probability that is really intelligence at one points, had access to these devices, tempered with these devices, and essentially detonated deep does sort of the, sorry, transmit at the destination protocol, which resulted in the explosion of these devices, the one thing that does remain clear as bullet has about to retaliate. and we can

only assume that israel would, in one form or another retaliate to that retaliation further, essentially spirally out of control and risk inputting the entire region into further conflict. or are they wanting a bus that are 211 on the most trouble? i'm on the is one of those who have been affected by that last, of course he sustained injuries and he was sent out to the hospital audio. we're not sure still, what's he, i carrying the page or that exploded or he was in the vicinity of the applause though we are of course are waiting for comments from the running officials to elaborate on this. but his wife took to social media. she wrote on fixed on her ex account that he is feeling well now she wrote that her husband was exposed to injuries, minor injuries, as described by his wife, and now he has survived the incident. of course it came as part of that large scale,

a cyber attack that targeted of hundreds of pagers or communication devices carried by hundreds of hezbollah members. but of course now juan has also reacted with see different and wanting officials are starting to react. uh the one and uh for administer. i bought that off. she called his 11 his counterpart um and uh he extended his condolences and called the incident a terrorist act bite as well that will not go on answer. so this is not, not, not a game that will lead to coming down to a situation in the middle east under as a one is talking about revenge as well. and living on have been exchanging fire and the on the liberties is really border. and the situation is not going to end, and as my colleagues said, this is going to put the region on the brink of a regional complication. the no strings are continuing to

emerge in israel's global business links and mid the gals are more investigative and use i let the intercept has disclose. major concerns among tech joined ibm employees over the company's work with the i d, f r t correspondent rebecca, and nothing to pull reports from the firms main hub in indonesia. and here's your reaction from locals to since the side of the gauze, up on flakes. indonesia has consistently shown its support for palestine including folding boy costs. while the focus has often been on the driver's side, mcdonald's and some companies are a bunch of getting to is really military operations have slipped under the radar. i'm sending in front of the ibm office building located in the center off your card . recently, big blues has been awarded a series of contracts through on technology support centers for the is early military force feature as blue cross across the country. joe,

we asked in any agents whether you are aware of i the link to the adf. unless i have been though, i believe many people unaware of ibm position because i just found out about it. i'll follow up on that. perhaps it is due to a lack of socialization or awareness. typically, the most well known products are those that are already extensively available on the market move income. and the reason why not many people feel intimidated is because the indonesian people themselves may not know much. so far, what is often echoed is about brands that are widely known, such as starbucks, for example, the relationship with them, ibm and the answer on military has existence since the 19 sixty's do, it may not build weapons itself. ibm has long helped the military to manage them in 2020, the company shared a $275000000.00 contract to build 3 data centers that would handle is really military logistics, including combat equipment i, b, m. c. e. o has reportedly told employees questioning the company's ties to is

really military. that is foreign business wouldn't be shaped by humanitarian guidelines. this echoes the company's previous recognition of its corporation with the id f. we see ourselves as partners of the id f, not only in technological discourse, but also in areas of organizational culture and change, including contact with human resources, personnel, a, b, m. yeah. at the ibm and black rock have a clear relationship with these really military, particularly in terms of technology development. we need to prepare a strong and effective strategy to make the boy cards a 5 b m successful as well. we agree that big companies like ibm and black rock and others, should be held accountable for their complicity and is really crimes. the media smoothman has already seen success with mcdonalds and uni lever. in indonesia, we saw a double digit sales decline in the 4th quarter. a sales of several multi national

companies were impacted by geopolitically focused consumer facing campaigns. the most pronounced impact that we're seeing is in the middle east. and in muslim countries like indonesia and malaysia. as long as this conflict is going on, we're not expecting to see any significant improvement in these markets. also say week sales girls in the 4th quarter of 2023 and it's international businesses. partly due to the international markets, rolls 0.7 percent year on your end of quarter down from a 16.5 percent increase and the same period last year. but it doesn't stop. they are the leader of the nation. media smoothman suggests there are other ways to prevent companies from you can call that on is really actions in gaza. a lot of companies like, i mean, our recommendation is that boy cards are not the only way to fight israel's crimes . there are other forms of resistance, such as applying pressure or, and divesting. however, since the investment may not be feasible for everyone,

one action that can be taken by anyone is to apply pressure. this pressure can be in the form of widely shared public opinion, to review all the facts and the truth that ibm black rock and h p are involved in is really crimes. these companies have the power to choose, will they support customers who are aware of human rights and palestinian rights, or will they stick with current policies that may risk their survival? so for many reasons, avoid carts are we to show solidarity that palestine in the war that fails distant a deeply affects and was lim communities worldwide? the lesson and we support palestine starting from the things that we can do if we want to do something big. of course we have to start from small things. for example, as a housewife. i can start using products that are not related to these brands. so i think it's unfortunate what can be done now is to raise the awareness of all

indonesians that by boycotting. we can make israel reconsider the use of weapons because if we continue to buy and use these products, they will continue to have the resources to launch attacks. as the conversation are on board cards continues to evolve. more in nations are freshening where their money is going. the bigger picture is clear. it's not just about consumer choices. it's not taking a stand by human rights to kill some 15000000 russians. that's what a fighter from the neo nazi ukrainian i dar battalion is seeking and he thinks he knows how to achieve that a by restoring the countries, viola product rates, they've streams with southern southern earlier legit plan never came to any. and i think it's time to restore the biological laboratories that were captured by the russians and mary opal. these laboratories were supposed to kill a 3rd of the population of russia in 10 days. it's a pity it didn't work out, but the prospect was good. when i talked to ortiz,

senior correspondent brock downstairs on this morning to you quite a lot to him picking those comments from the printing battalion member tickets true that i'm indeed most goes reaction a well 1st, 1st off, it's may have been written. this is the top of sick joke about killing a 3rd of the russian population, but said me, you crate in forces. julian volunteer not to battalions for basically for these viola bar stories. but those of being taken by russian forces clean the inside out absolutely sterilized. by you creating troops as they retreated to perhaps by others, by researches those work, the less these bar labs research facilities have been a problem for russia. for many years, they think that most of the decades ago when russia said the unexplained swines,

african swine flu epidemic, the rab through russia and through surrounding countries may have leaks from an american funded bar. the bar is wholly, that would be the stablished, a network of the, a long countries, the poor, the, the pull, the rush right now to fund the a by the united states. administrative or the pen to god that have been researching that various pass pathogens as well. as infectious diseases, viruses, uh, apparently for security, for the defense threats reduction. nevertheless, the united states was desperate, bosher shouldn't get his hands on any of the samples that they will start to. the ukraine has a biological research facilities which in fact we are

now quite concerned russian troops, russian forces may be seeking to gain control of so we are working with the ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of the russian forces should they approach the united states claims that there is nothing to various going on these part of the boards, or is that that nearly studying potentially dangerous diseases. infections viruses, to mitigate the threats, to make sure that they can come up with the right seems, should these, these dangerous pathogens. oh, viruses, diseases begin to begin to spread, but they have something to work with. uh, pull up a potential vaccine rush. it says on the other hand, the research with viruses, extraction,

but the dangerous part is half the way to developing a weapons. the rest of the potential weapons that can be used or even was the key. josh would be a biological, a boy choice, and perhaps schools whose may have because until suffering, even the economic damage where they need the united states. apache has more than 40, more than 40 biological boards was just in ukraine. formally, we had hung up from the former defense minister of our menia said the, what is happening at these biological a boards where it is dangerous of the minutes we have at our disposal. documentary evidence of the state department's participation in the implementation of bio safety improvement program since 2016. in accordance with the funding plan, at least $40000000.00 is provided to attract the various non profit and non governmental organizations to participate in this program alone. so that kind of

the documents demonstrate the active participation of the us state department in bio programs in foreign countries, as well as washington's drive to involve 3rd parties to conceal customers. and the goals of ongoing research, special attention is paid to the countries of the middle east, erac, human and jordan, southeast asia, indonesia and the philippines as africa, kenya, morocco, and you've gone to, given that the united states is unable to control its own biological facilities. the activities of american laboratories around the world are a constant source of biohazard. first and foremost, for the populations of the countries where they are based what's russia most is the lack of transparency when it comes to these biological bar. who is these all or well, many of them are situated on brushes, borders, and marshal wants to know what is happening there,

especially given that allegedly studying very dangerous viruses they, they just diseases. what was awful groat of viruses attracted from uh, from that school various new variations of existing diseases. and one of this is done with funding from the united states military and with the roads of the united states. military robs in the world health organization, positive patients. and the other agencies which handle which help guide these biological uh, research facilities, methodologies as well and methods. just giving us the background to those quite extraordinary comments. our take some rough gas the of live from the past. the us government sounds good archie and it's site sell. it appears mark tucker, birds, happy to help his mess up. platforms have joint washington's crusade essentially against this network. shutting us done across facebook and instagram. it comes

after the state department call for a world wide fund of russian state media over a legit election medley. and mehta is towing the line. after careful consideration, we expanded our ongoing enforcement against russians. the media outlets versus the gordon. there are c and other related, and these are now banned from our apps globally for foreign interference activity. the bin was entirely to be expected. they're rep shutdown of our accounts and bill, facebook and instagram along with those say back to goodness ations masquerading as information platforms was no surprise. i wouldn't my teeth and tongue down from saying they should have never been allowed into russia. from the moment they were permitted in, they should have been expelled as they serve merely as the left heel of american intelligence agencies and what is often called the american deep state. naturally, the band comes up to the deep state represented by its founding the state

department labeled us as the well stop spies and america's primary fellows and something. i generally appreciate the key reason the world does not uniformly support ukraine is the primary reason they believe the internationalization of russia has failed, and by numerous countries, either remain neutral, opened the back russia, the impact of r t. they may have closed yet another door in us, but we'll find another entrance window or even a crack and the floor will continue our work. no matter what. margarita someone. yeah, the washington's pressure us so far failed to convince many major powers at all. indeed one example, it's reportedly refusing to back the u. s. according to new delhi officials from local media quotes, the country doesn't support you know, lot from measures without un approval. here's what the american and boy in the indian capital said earlier, of the governments of the united states,

the 1st to the government of india and the governments of other countries to make their own determination of and accreditation procedures for these entities. the us would welcome all countries and taking similar actions as the united states government has well, we spoke to a member of south africa's national assembly, who also sits in the country media review organization. he said, it seems like freedom of speech is only allowed in the west if and i put spence fits the convenient north. the media review network condemns the brazen violations of press freedom by meta the parent company of whatsapp, facebook and instagram. the self proclaimed bastions of free speech and freedom of expression have chosen to use social media outlets to play geo politics against russia. freedom of the price is only applicable in the west if one chooses to maintain service to the forces of empire metal banning of r, t and others as testament to this fact, freedom of the press has always been

a mis. people must be able to make choices based on an informed decision, whether it's going to be exposed to all the information that expose them to multiple multiple perspectives on the spot. they're not surprised because even before elections, we have tons of off the go feet using misinformation. westwood is one of the verified with an intentional trying to manipulate from the mentor platform. in particular, especially facebook because of most of us, it can be in that, especially ordinary citizens, the photo this media platform. so to try and manipulate outcomes to time on your plate as posters. because some of the modification that takes place, it's about opinion polls, which are not verified. authenticated, which you find with this platforms, which condition people to a particular outcome of the election. which says, for example, does not support a west. the true wisdom agenda would be demonized. using those platforms and as long as that happens to a lot of people are not the u. s,

it's not appropriate. it's okay. as long as it provides a punitive view to what the us wants to put forward as another to globally then, then all the principles of democracy so called fly out of the needle in favor of tried trying to protect and pulling people out on the wonder protecting dangerous, james reuben, who is the coordinator of the us state department, global engagement center, put out a statement. let's take a look. a listen real quickly to what he had to say. what we're hoping to do to this diplomatic campaign is to inform the world, and that's where we hope to have success by informing the world of who these people really are, what they really do, how they use their, their offices and their tv capabilities, to try to get governments around the world to change their policies in other countries will make decisions for themselves. but we certainly hope when they make those decisions and that's what we're doing about it. we're trying to expose so that we can disrupt their activities by helping other governments come to their own decisions about how to treat this,

this non television station activities and the propaganda and lies that come out of our tea is incredibly popularizing to other countries. so you don't have capabilities to still got a hold intelligence. you require require the services of a big brother, america to be able to do that. but the other issues, if they have an issue with laptop and rather a t, as in mary kinds of why they must have big global agenda to try and block or do a t instead of them dealing with that issue intentionally and having even having bilateral engagements if they can, with the shift to actually to kind to the coincidence what they want, we want to make the problem. i was now the one to actually pretend as if, if the, wherever i disagree mental issues with the last year, the whole world must have been an issue of t. the western weapon sent to you great. how they ended up in the hands of african extreme. this european drug cartels to name, but a few. those supply and key at large the turn

a blind eye to the list and trade on next are documentary team on covers. the truth scale of the trust, i think in ukraine's arms. barnes, the, the russian

states never as tight as i'm sort of the most sense community. best of all sense. i'm in the 65 to 5 must be the one else calls question about this even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the russia scooting and supports the r t supposed neg keeping our video agency roughly all the band on youtube tv services for the question, did you say a request which is the

the altima 2023. a surprise attack lowest against israel by how much militaries show the world the no one had expected the palestinian when the goal is to have so many cutting edge weapons. in the aftermath of the attack militants openly and mocking rain for the rockets and missiles that rain down on these rays. this is the see the how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of munitions and military equip.
