of the the rick sanchez here. this is direct impact and this is what we're going to be talking about. the it's an actual explosion of someone's pager that they happen to have right near them when it goes off inside the store. this is happening over and over again. i'm rick sanchez. it's a breaking news story. we're following for you. let's do this. the . okay, so i guess i have to start with the words. it's happening again. we are hearing there is another wave of explosions that have been taking place now in the 11 on

yesterday it was pagers. now we understand it's people's handheld radios. like what we used to talk what we used to call walkie talkies. right? possibly cellphones, maybe some laptops to or are now blowing up around people and many are being severely injured or killed again. now we've got some exclusive video that we're going to be sharing with you here. it's important to note that this video, while important and certainly newsworthy, is also very graphic. there are scenes of care that you are about to see. here we go, the one of the explosions there. we're going to be seeing several of them. again, this comes after a series of attacks yesterday for thousands of pages blew up and what appears to be

a coordinated the high tech supply chain. sabotage. look at this, look at this fire. by the way, that sabotage, according to the wall street journal, was conducted by israel. at least 12 people we understand are dead as many as 2800 are injured. um, now we have a 2nd video now i'm gonna show you the attack that took place yesterday. this is the one that happened yesterday afternoon. we reported this to you again. very graphic stuff here. and it appears to have happened as the people were simply going about their daily lives. the mentors of, of the . yeah, these are the scenes. i know it's tough to watch. i mean some,

3000 people who suddenly something on their body or in their hands or in front of their face just blew up. all tear fills the entire nation of loving on as we speak with people now fearful of being near any electronic device for fear that it's going to blow up in their hands or in their faces or, or blow up their children as, as happens, or their friends or their family members, all fingers are now obviously pointing to israel, which is pretty much saying, yeah, we did it so far we understand there are about $200.00 victims, including children. at least 3 people are dead. that's from just today, right? many more from yesterday, and by the way, those numbers are going to change as the story develops, a wall street journal published an account and it's early edition this morning that said that israel appears to have purposely interrupted the supply chain to cause this to happen. the supply chain of the electronic devices, the pagers, the beepers, the walkie talkies or whatever you want to call them,

which is incidentally a confirmation of something that our guest yesterday. if you watched our show yesterday, which i'm sure you probably did, who doesn't? we had an investigative journalist on his name is elijah mon jay. and he reported here this very same thing on the or yesterday take a listen. 7 months ago has been the bolt and you badge of pages several thousands and a whole mother and they have a solar system charging and they don't need to buy it back free, but they can be of any jobs. so or the vein you, it was evey, id sophisticated, emphasizing the engineer will be trapped the advice that was embedded with explosive width of page, or electronic circuit, showing them advice that the effect and the good expertise. so what these really they did, if they've sent the message and that is urgent and then it came as in the form of

error, and then it goes vibrating. so people needed to take the badger in both hands. and this is why more than 300 people enough both ends. some people that i side other people around 9 died, but there are hundreds of people who had minor injuries. i've never seen anything like this and we've been reporting it now for the last 48 hours. let me bring manila into this conversation so that she can weigh and there's still a lot to say about the geo politics of now. but just based on the facts on the ground there, manila, what, what, what uh, what is your reaction? it will work as we know from many confirmed reports now from around the world that is real is indeed behind this attack. so this was a state sponsored event. now that said the components from the initial, what they said was a, was a batch of motorola page or is, or beepers,

whatever you want to call them. the components come from all over the place rep. we're talking places like south korea, taiwan, and perhaps even china, people were saying, you know, smaller components. so this is now an international problem about when and where israel was able to infiltrate that supply chain. and as we've reported before that there are many countries out there now that have spoken out against is real and this continued action against gaza and advancing it into loving on to sort of expand this war and perhaps expand into the broader middle east in order to drag in other countries including the united states itself. yeah. um and perhaps the greater great on greater middle eastern nations around to make this a huge regional war. so if we stop there,

we at least right now the international community really does need to do a, a real interest section and take a look at where the supply chain failed, where somebody was a mall or a plant that needs to be step number one, how it was manipulated, and by the way, of course, the reaction around the world to the fact that many, if not most of the victims are civilians. as far as we can tell us, has been swift. israel is going to argue that there were only targeting members on his bola, inside lebanon, like they have in the case in gaza. but as we know, that's not the case. and of course, that's completely irrational and lot cool because it doesn't account for all the people who may be sharing the device. if you're sitting next to someone who may be a bad guy, according to israel, but you're not a bad person, or you happen to be the child of bad person, or somebody who's just holding the device for somebody else. and devices that were sold in the open market for example,

to somebody who has nothing to do with as bowler. so the targeting of digital devices used by civilians is being condemned right now. in the last i checked before i went on the air by the e u uh by the u. n. by russia, by egypt, by turkey, by venezuela, cuban just cuba. just a list of some of the countries i solve the problem. sure by now that there are many more other nations who are not beholden to israel or to the us. um, some of those nations who are beholden, the israel in the us are probably not going to say a damn thing for its part. the us state department spokesperson had this to say the us was not aware of this incident in advance, and at this point we are gathering information and what information we continue to collect information. i don't have any plan in public read out to give now, but we're collecting information. and the same way the journalists are across the world to gather the facts about what might have happened. i only think of the 3

monkeys when i see that statement. and i see nothing, i hear nothing. i know nothing. uh well. meanwhile, on life call, the majority of the people world wide are calling it a blatant attack on civilians and inactive care. ardent defenders of israel are gloating about israel's incredible technological prowess. among the most noteworthy is this tweet that was published on x by the nation to soon as a who says he found the attack to be funny. and frankly, he seems to be enjoying it. uh, let me show you his tweet. let me read it to you. his boss gets a taste of its own medicine. is it wrong to watch this and laugh. he writes, wow, i don't know. let me bring you in for that. good luck. yeah. rick, the short answer to the nations question is yes, a 100 percent. it's on ethical and disgusting to laugh at the pain and suffering

and injury of any human life. the nurse desousa loves to kind of a caricature himself as some sort of academic and he's so some. 1 written and you know, he's got a ph, d, or whatever. but when you look at other actual people in the world of academics like a professor at georgetown university called bruce hoffman, he defines, defines of terrorism as, quote violence or equally important. the threats of violence used and directed in pursuit of or in service of a political aim or a nother academic professor louise richardson at oxford university. she says, terrorism is defined as deliberately and violently targeting civilians for political purposes. now, if we look at the back characterization of what terrorism is, then to nash, the sousa is effectively cheerleading, and laughing at terrorism,

terrorism should always be condemned. and therefore, i see him as a terrorist, sympathizer, and i condemn him for that. and i find it absolutely disgusting and deplorable, but anybody follows and listen is to this guy. wow. strong words from another child . and i've never seen you quite like this. but you know, it's, it's hard to disagree with somebody, vanity. yeah, for somebody who does, it's hard to disagree with somebody who says what you said about somebody who says publicly, i'm sitting here laughing at people losing their arms or legs dying and having their children attacked by booby trapped booby traps set inside or explosives inside their technological equipment or their digital equipment it's, it's, it's, it's an amazing day and amazing story. but there's a lot to say about this, including, what is the, has ball a story, what is 11 on reaction,

what is this real saying? and that's what we're going to do in just a little bit. thanks so much. you know what? we're going to be following everything that's coming out 11 on. don't go away because when we come back, we are going to be joined by somebody who's there on the scene in uh, 11 on late my roof, who joins us from a root. he's a journalist, the founder of a tv news network called pre palestine tv. he's going to give us that perspective when we come back, stay right there. the the

in 1881 seeking to expand its property in north africa. france decided to attack and easy. the invasion began with a bun bartman of the french fleet on coastal cities and was followed by standing in the ground through the french easily occupied one of the key city. please eric, and the bay of doing this bomb at the 3rd us deep agreed to humiliating negotiations. lombardo 3 d concluded with a colonialist, establishing a project to rid of france, overton easier. however, the people up to an easy, i would not surrender to the enemy. at the call of the as alignment clergy, the do easy is rose to a holy war against the invaders. the soldiers of the bays army also joined the resistance. the branch groups did not get an easy walk. vieira patriots bought desperately, but failed to defeat a huge and well armed army, which was supported by the strongest sleep. within

a year the rebels where defeated. this turned out to be a real tragedy for the country. about one 7th of the population together with the fighters left for neighboring libya. thousands of people died during the warfare. the french flag was raised over to an easy. the colonial authorities tried to deprive the country of its air of identity and populated with european settling. such an easy instead now brought up with the loss of freedom era. patriots had been fighting against french colonialism for decades until june easier gained independence in 1956. the to what is part of the, the employee would post that isn't the,

the place you of us in that, in the word? or is it something deeper, more complex might be present to that stuff without collision? is that spelled out of the late? my room is an award winning journalist who covers them at least late. thanks so much for joining us. i guess it, it behooves me to ask you 1st and foremost, how are you doing? i just can't help but wonder. what's it like to be a citizen 11 on right now, and if you happen to have a computer or, or a cell phone or any kind of digital device, or are people just throwing them out their windows or how our people? reeves with the people must be scared out of their minds to be any near any kind of digital device at this point. yeah, well this is the main purpose of the,

the sign are playing a like the logical warfare game. and specifically, they're targeting to reach the goal of having the, a conscientious decision making up there and then to be the, you know, the stabilize. and this, at this moment, for the last 10 months of the assets and physical law has been very calculated in all their actions when they seem design, if they're not being bated into a situation by may a chief goals from. therefore what we see is these are today and up today where i designed to kind of a so k off as well. yeah. well what about but, but what i'm actually would show, okay, how's it, how could it not showing? it's okay us if i was living 11 on right now, i would be scared out of my mind to be walking down the street to be walking by

people who may have a cellphone on them, or a pager, or a laptop, or a walkie talkie or a handheld radio, i mean the people have to be freaked out. i mean, that's what i'm trying to get from you. how freaked out are the people you make it sound like maybe they're not, and they're only thinking geo political terms that can't be the case. they are freaked out i think the whole world is also a big balance because what these dyna just told us to a today and yesterday is that any device that has a lift, the battery that is connected somehow to the internet or a radio signal just by can the case of the features and feeds walkie talkie can be given a come, it will be back door in the hardware, our, or in the software to overly the lifting batteries as fast as possible for it to blow up. and as we talked today, the 14 where marchers in comparison to yes, it's a 12. the reason that there's more to pay that is because the walkie talkies are

usually somebody had close to their head and or in the car. they should just above the window that, you know, you know, the although to be, to be fair and to be hopefully accurate as we look at these unbelievable videos of the carnage. i would suspect that there's reason to believe that these weren't just batteries blowing up because we here have all seen what happens with batteries blow up. those are explosions. and that means it necessitates that somebody had to manipulate the device and put c for inside of it. just enough, so it would cause an explosion. so i don't know, i'm not an expert and i don't think you are either. but as we get down the line on this and they look at these devices, i think we'll find out that somebody after they were made, then in an aftermarket way,

manipulated them by putting some kind of explosive in them. but as the story develops will know more. here's the question. i want to ask you if somebody is real, where do i have said what i just said that they're just going after his ball or they're not going after civilians? it's because they think it is ball as a terrorist organization. what would you say to them? well, clearly that it's really will say that about any of the value that they're doing. and they've been saying that for now 10 more. and they will continue to say that i really, other than most of them is the kind of risk that they have the right to kill our potential better. so let me know and what we saw today and yesterday is that these really, really to clock full lot. and in fact uh, you know, the, it's really the short tube or in the name as the, as the operation on the back end. they. so they think that it's a clever thing to call it a operation number of about so we all know when you're respect,

picking somebody under the back, it shows you that your, this are all at you on i, you know, all of the nation and that is the way that the is really military of the really a knowledge and services anyways, this is the norm for that to cross all decent, big rock or one of international law that rules of engagement that more and uh, you know, the best example of that is out the quote unquote is really marshal on a guy is the only marshall i that allows you to bunch for somebody in the go in or get them in the back of they had this is israel. israel is the gym, the title into the nothing, nothing was well, but the grand, but let me go back to my question now. they would say that has bullet members on our terrorist. that's what they say. i know that 11 on his board was not considered a terrorist organization or in many parts of the world. it is in many parts of the

world. it is and they would say the members of as well are terrorist. therefore we're targeting them, not civilians only them. how does that mash or jive with what you've seen there on the ground in level while the vast majority of those 4 parts are insured up and from now i've been honest, i've never been a government park to go in and the biggest constituency of those for the insurance for my i check our medical workers because i, you know, that back pack and box, but also we're not allowed to have a cell phone. you have to use a pager and the hospitals out there in general ager systems for their nurses inbox to show. clearly this was indiscriminate. uh, they were hoping maybe that they will get some of the best lines paid or off the bill. but that didn't happen. so if you didn't get any important progress,

even if you're claiming that you're doing that to private law, then you have to fail. and the, uh, the only infection and goal was to main till the 1000000000. and the chatter arrives until i, you know, bring the package. i hope everyone's talking. uh, i just read a little while ago. uh, the u. n's reaction to this as well as the used by the way, as well as most countries in the world who are waiting and the ones who aren't waiting for the united states to tell them what to say. and most of them are saying the thing they're angriest about after they talk about the fact that civilians have been apparently affected by this. even if not targeted is that they're worried about the escalation. but that there's no question that this has to escalate the situation. why, why would the, the war cabinet of israel,

why would the prime minister, mister netanyahu make a decision to do something, this public, this outright against lebanon? if he didn't want this uh, a conflict right now between his country and so many others to go outside his borders even more to go beyond gaza and the west bank is that what he's trying to do? he actually wants to. yeah. why, why, why, why does, why would he want to do, why, what he wants to escalate this war? because the access of resistance and different affinity and god has been fighting a war, tuition and mc colonial colonial liberation. struggle. and that's a great example of a cherry, a sample based now, when you're fighting a much longer colonial power and you want to get your patient that i'll bite it. and the longer this uh, 1050 or more continues as it is a factor of

a lot of the scientists call on a bit. and it's really like you're not, you're not, you're not, you're not, you're not, you're not answering my question. i don't want you to tell me why the b, n p colonial ish or whatever you call them are doing this. i want you to tell me why the method yahoo is doing this to, to keep this quiet. and the carpet military is defeated on the ground both again, i know that that experience i'm against the need. oh yeah, no choice but to draw in the west to fight the war on his behalf. and the coming by again, the opinion in a extermination happen does are, but they will come and fight on behalf of israel, if principal law, formidable enemy, android, iran. this is what was the do. and he wants to do it before the american election happen. while they actually typically wants to try to close as possible, that's what of attrition to the election to sort of fascinating now that yeah,

is interesting that he's doing it before the election and he's doing it because he wants this to be bigger and he wants to escalate it and he wants the west to come in and help fight the war for him. in many ways. um, interesting perspective and i thank you so much like for joining us. sorry about some of the technical issues we had and we look forward to talking to you once again. that's our show. remember to always look outside your own box to stay, don't live in boxes. so i'm rick sanchez. thank you so much for being with us. we'll be looking for you again. the scott bennett, i'm a former united states army psychological warfare officer, really served in the state department counterterrorism office under investor del

daily the i saw i wanted to come here to russia in the dawn bass area and to gather the facts, to take back to the american people, the hold on bass of the front lines, the square, the bombs and the bullets are raging. this is where people are dying. this is where the buildings are exploding the all. i wanted to see 1st hand the scars of war. the

there's no end in sight over how you're going to continue to destroy the earth. is the case all the methods of the people. i tried to go to the gym, but i'm certainly not ready to fight russia. this is also a soon. this is the 3rd world lunacy re washington press for so the funder line likes to say we have the tools while we just start with stability and business deal . some of the living will not have very close propaganda. you know, price here in new york. i think we don't know the aftermath any time that you're not allowed to ask questions, you should ask all of the questions. some more questions ask a better. the answer is will be the that doing on august, the 6 ukrainian troops across the border and the launch the full scale and caution that the rest as cosca region of um we could,

we could sales with the north focusing there offensive on swords. you battelle near the border the, the soldier escrow, but several settlements was seized with this uh, setting as well sir. so special models, the commercial subsidy ellipse video reps. video with russian troops moved out to the bottles of counterterrorism. operation regime was included in the course for the odds can funds they'll go out, regents from a farm gilligan. recur rewarded for fire and looking at that invoice reflects from the the last bill. let's look forward to hearing from you said you're very close the loop loose in the state of the plus

the see the silver. so the somebody how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of, of munitions and military equipment? is fairly low paying the boy a bit of boss and low grade and then maybe a little in your system and below grade level nominal facility or some of those other staff we, i'm about the daisy student and we also want to know we have more of an easy, some better mobile bubble sort of wellness that will kind of the piece that have gone on now. well, why are weapons from ukraine spreading over the world? to turn this country into a major arms hub, will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them occasionally use that they need to defend their country. the everyone knows very well that we don't sell but known as pineapples or any kind of children's toys. we sell weapons. yes. we're

also known in the world as items dealers that we must not be ashamed of that the or the so yeah, he's really as bombing uh, 11 on and we're gonna probably somewhere safe breaking news. that's how i know exceed correspond the reports in the bit of a new way of is really a tax on lebanon as explosions of older people in the national capital be with the idea says it's conducting the story to secure it's pulled up. the top comes a day off to multiple waves and digital devices without a triggered subject to data across lab and 37 people that in the 3 hundreds are in critical condition that the government says it's a nice way the crime is a.
