indelible lottie stains in the history of the european colonial empires. the principal last strikes stays really territories overnight sit in response to the deadliest attack on lab and on in the past 20 years, which is reportedly claimed around 500 lives. our correspondents are standing by in the region to bring us the latest development introductory reaction. want the adf loan should provide different kinds of operation by thing on 2 fronts. the idea of a nice is a military operation against pissed bola thing. it's destroying the military infrastructure, as well as returning displace residents to their holdings in the north of israel. but that's as the other side of the border seat, panic, gun chaos, with policies, fleeing level homes type in search of safety. alarm from the shore to what we

went through today is not normal. shelling and destruction and civilian areas. what happened is terrorism and with the recent exchange of fire, triggering global fears of a full scale more israel's main. i live us in the additional military personnel committee, the wherever we are. joining us from today be at home or on the move. welcome to then use our on our teachers. we take off with briefing use, his bola has launched over night attacks across israel. striking numerous targets video was emerging online to show the iron dome defense system in action, trying to intercept incoming rockets. it's all clear if they're helping any casualties from choose the mornings attacks. meanwhile,

the idea of space, it's launched, more than 650 strikes on 1300. his ball at target's across level, over the past day or so, leaving 492 people dead on free times. that number injured. the map here is showing the scale of attacks and how many cities have been affected. the idea has been striking the lebanese capital as well as real space. it's targeting his bola infrastructure that's been operating for 20 years. footage circulating on social media shows signs of smoke rising into the sky is really government has imposed a special civil defense situation throughout the country. the armies chief of staff saves israel will continue its operation in level until his bowlers, military infrastructure is destroyed and citizens from the north are able to return

to their homes. sadly, as i own, the bookcase might be as long as you proactive offensive operation, kind of where it's like, you know, male dream for structure and it has the built for 20 years. this is very significant. west, so i can talk it's, i'm preparing for the next phases which i will a little, but he's on shortly missing the and everything needs to be able to create in the conditions, to return to displace residential, the north of the homestead in let me pull some more let's bring in, all right, and use team across the region. reestablish the inter ruth lump. and yes, and i can joining us from be rude. yes. and if we can start with you this morning, the 11 east capitalize were mentioning, among other sit he's coming under. sustain is really fire. have a serious was the scale of the overnight strikes. and what's the situation on the ground of the

we observed some of the deadliest strikes and the most fierce battles over the course of the past 24 hours. and it is, of course, the most fiercest a back and forth between his beloved israel. since uh, 2006, since it's the line is real, went to what we understand that is real, has carried out, strikes predominantly targeting positions in southern lebanon. we understand that they have targeted southern suburbs of a root targeting da here. areas that are predominant controls are provided by as well. members, but this is also a matter of concern because these areas do contain civilian populations because people have very little to no options to find shelter or seek refuge elsewhere. despite the fact that these families have been providing people with broadcast terabytes messages telling them to beat their homes and providing them as little as 2 hours to meet their home. so this is a matter of concern. israel has been criticized for as yourself,

evacuation orders in the past, mainly because of the very little side that allows people to leave their homes and there's very few options to seek shelter and safety. but of course, the past 24 hours did result in a number of casualties. hundreds of people were killed. many of them were children, as well as women. so the civilian toll is mounting as israel continues to strike different parts of living on its campaign against has of a loss, but is not discriminating against civilian infrastructure as well. the civically and targets. and we understand that. so of course, the government is now issuing orders across the country, providing shelter to people that are fleeing the south schools, universities, churches, and institutions that are similar to that providing refuge to people fleeing the south. and this comes at a time and people have very few options to consider because house listings and rental options are diminishing as every single day goes by. as the attacks are being wrapped up the, the, the, the reactions on people of course, does contain a lot of level of fear. but there's also a level of resilience as to what some of the reactions are coming out of 11 on

them. so i'm looking at this de shocked assault. we never expected a day like this to pass a day of terrorism on the general being what i'm sure to what we went through today is not in normal lives, shelling and destruction and civilian areas. and what happened is a terrorist and yes, and as we mentioned, the violence is the most serious we've seen in some 20 years. there has, there are what has been the response from lebanese authorities. the for starters level as prime minister did issue a statement suggesting that campaign that israel is currently undergoing is not necessarily war against the law or a one of the true attrition. but we do understand that the lebanese problem, just to refer to this as a war of extermination, that israel's agenda in dublin on does not necessarily have anything to do with

hezbollah, particularly, which is why it's concerning. moving forward, we listen to a number of other 11 these officials of the ministry of education sort of suggesting that the schools would provide shelter, that education which is on hold. so that makes sense. so there is a level of fear of a defacto state of emergency across the country. and as we move forward, as israel ram subsets, if it's attacked, we can expect some of the reactions from liberties, officials, and one of the main and fundamental issues that we understand that lovely is officials have been predominantly and adamantly expressing their opinions on israel's attack. saying that the actions of hezbollah does not necessarily represent the position of the state of lebanon. whereas we're listening to uh, as really officials who do not distinguish between has the law or the state of lebanon. it's officials or it's a civilian population even. and what we're seeing is, of course, a number of, of a marketing made by lebanese officials in new york as part of the 79th view in

general assembly. this here is a statement from a lebanese member apartments that are years shopping. that is a deep way of seeing the destruction of large areas of agricultural land and residential buildings. and the majority of the agents of living in this has damage the economy of our country and threatened our social order, especially of the many countries have requested the citizens to leave lebanon. as soon as you manage the urgency, needs dialect, reflection and consideration of this significant face threatening an international secure the enterprise. the international system has witnessed cases of this innovation violence and a lot of commitment to universal values invite in charge. us assess what they did on behalf of the state is still confident in the global system. the, the techs have another effect on the people of living on as well. on monday, a lot of people were storming gas stations to ensure that they have enough fuel to

get around the country or fleet. if need be bakeries, we're also crowded by crowds of people trying to get their hands on much needed food sources flour as well. so the markets had been stormed, for the most part, people are trying to figure out what they could do in preparation and in the patient for a larger attack or larger wave of attacks, even the prospects of a full scale war. but of course, one of use of july also at joins is from tier run on the live link. but for now let's go to jerusalem, where maria phenomena is standing by at good morning to maria. the idea has a night. it's a new military operation, which means israel will not essentially be fighting on 2 fronts. take us through what we know about that. well, good morning to your name, dave. the goal of is rose, new offensive in the north is clear to destroy, has both of us military capabilities and to create conditions that will allow

thousands of his really back who use who have left the board. the region in the countries north of since the beginning of the world last october to return home safely, the idea of spokesperson, who, by the way, address the public 4 times on monday, alone stated during his most recent appearance that they attacked over 1600, his boatload targets demolish in combat infrastructure that the group has spent. the last 20 years building is real claims that has viola has been stopped filing lessons for years 1st and around. 200000 rockets, miss halls and motors as well as thousands of drones and to send an army of 50000 train fighters, supplemented by the same number of reserve, is suddenly got in vowed to continue the attacks and explained or tried to explain why these really are me, is targets in civilian areas in lab and on. let's take

a listen. let me be clear. fish by light is responsible for the situation. this is please, by let's plan to turn cells in lebanon into a battlefield for its attacks on israel. we cannot accept terrorist groups storing weapons inside people's homes using them to fire at other civilian communities, as well as real has named its operation northern arrows, those some already dobbin. it's this the level of war with the recent attacks, marking the fiercest escalation in years. and you have just heard my colleagues from live on, on this cattle to count is nearly half off the total casualties from the entire 2nd level war in just a couple of days back to you. yeah, indeed, we know from what the us and told us there are maria, the number of casualties on the lebanese side, as provided by its health ministry. but how does the idea justified it's the latest

strikes to well apart from military capabilities, israel claims to him had to eliminate and his bowl as leadership clearly. and this strategy has yielded some resolves with more than 16. his bullet commander is including top figure is reportedly killed. hayes, real said that monday striking b route was also a target to killing and report say that a lead kind of case set to take over half to eat. but i hate my cue, who was killed his days before that was the suspect. and tanya and it seems that team managed to escape his bowl and denied reports about his death. her reports also indicates that at least half of his bowl as long and medium range missiles have been destroyed, have run through it entire units, elite units of the group in effective. this is what we hear from the army. and the idea of spokesperson stated also that the army has focused on destroying rosemay

solves, having walkers with 1000 kilogram war has medium range walk ends with a reach of up to 200 kilometers short range walkers and of course drones. and there's really government and the army repeatedly warrens that much of the groups, munitions are stored in civilian homes, prompting calls for the lebanese people to evacuate and hear his from. and as for benjamin engine, yahoo! calling on people of lab one on to save their lives and leave for tools as well as been using you as human shields in place rockets in your living rooms. and this is in your garage. those rockets and missiles are writing directly at our cities directly at our citizens to defend our people against as well as strikes. we must take out those weapons. now starting this morning, the idea is want you to get out of harm's way. i urge you take this morning

seriously, don't let his bottom denture your lives and the lives of your loved ones. don't look his body danger level as well. however, again, many residence and love it. i'm complain about the length of time between these evacuation calls and the subsequent bombardments making it difficult for people to escape. some believe that these calls these evacuation calls as a preparation for something bigger from these really are man. for may be ground invasion is real estate in southern lebanon, as you remember from 1982 until 2000 when it went through its troops. and now many i say it is preparing to we occupied that part of the country back to re let me just stick with you all. not very point because i'm, i'm looking at a pull and r t dot com site thing one done. and these real thing, 71 percent of citizens there would support a military solution to this stand off with his bullet. that's the language use. how close are we to

a full scale boy given the rhetoric we're hearing yeah, we have very close to a major conflict between has paula and israel, and i have to say that's yes, there is a huge public support at this point. last week we spoke to a spokes person for the fighting for the north movements. uh that is uniting all those more than 60000 devices who left these roads north at the beginning of the war last october. he confirms that most of these people would like to see israel establishing control of a southern lab one on and create the boxes own there. although newton yahoo state as many times addressing a lebanese people that these fight is against his bowl and not against people of lebanon, oregon, 7 on. we are controversial statements from his really officials. for example, you are in this such as a television interview is really minister of education for claims that there is no difference between his bola 11 on in sure,

there is no difference between has paula and live on the way things are progressing at the moment. 11 on will be annihilated, and i say this even now in a very blunt ways. i but she will not be the same level. and as they know, i'm not going to deal with hunting down as well as rocket this by law. the price of aggression from levels territory will be paid by the state of lebanon. bush. ok. ok. just a slight connection. narrow there with maria, but to yusef to allow the inter run joins us no uses. a run is a major regional, a power. it's supportive. his bullet for years, why don't we hearing from tyrone about the latest file in the past? so for speed, you're wrong,

it's pretty common for reform is presidents to really choose the words carefully to avoid sending any negative fives to the west. spots out further the emphasis beyond ah, he's totally role mold during his recent future. the united nations general assembly, he was straight forward developed, i once thought about before saw are the policies adopted by the west. that's west uh how versions it is for the international community. to address what's happening with israel did not hold back one condemn. israel is where the action is calling get quotes, state terrorism and urged for an immediate and for the war and destruction. of course, the ones president accused israel of seeking a why the war and the middle east and quote, lege swaps for, for a while and to pull his country into a wider conflict. in his press briefing for this gun told media representatives saw that if one does not want to see the current war in gaza and air strikes across these with 11 on board are expanded saying that while there's room,

it says it does not want a wider conflict that it's taking actions that show otherwise try not to respond, but unfortunately that the lose if we can never came, there is no, we know in warfare, everyone loses in a war and conflict. we're only deluding ourselves if we think someone will be victorious and original war. curiously enough, we keep being labeled as a perpetrator, offering security. but look at the situation for where release and use of going be all the region concerns are growing around the world about the consequences of the, of the scenes, the violence on what it could all mean globally to the for. so because this piano has been pretty successful to use the opportunity in his trip to new york to shut lights on the escalation, i know riley some support for palestine after meeting on the sidelines of the un

general assembly ministers from g 7 ward about the middle east, the risk is being dragged into a broader complex that is set in a statement of this uh, shane of actions and counselor actions are risk magnifying, the dangerous cycle of violence on for drag the entire regents into a broader conflict with on imaginable consequences. the g 7 countries foresaw comprising got canada, france, germany, italy, japan, and the okay, yeah, of course on the west, also called for an end to the current destructive cycle, while emphasizing that no country will benefit from a further escalation, individual ease. uh, now this tends to maintain by short here, and egypt among other countries are more critical and outspoken when men think is rarely at the tax on living on as a threats to the global community. then own unit, that's an option. speaking by you, is there any eh, which is uh,

if i really think the sovereignty of the, of living and so we are deeply concerned and we are worried about that and dragging the whole region into our full sledge evasion. and war sets would be disastrous for all countries. israel's attacks on 11 on mark, a new phase in its efforts to drag the entire region into chaos. the countries that unconditionally support is real or helping nothing. y'all who shed blood for his political interests. the foresaw china has also reacted by slot, what he calls, as well as indiscriminate attacks against civilians. chinese foreign minister one, he told his lebanese counterpart of the law, happy that beijing support slipping on and say far didn't get sovereignty and security and strong bleaching dances, rails error rates on residential areas. so all the world's eyes are on living on.

and here's one more thing i, the reaction by the resistance groups is really different. they're condemning these where the attack, but uh that condemnation is laced with a finish up fragile already it, rocky. and do you have any groups of intensified their actions against as well? and we heard from the who is yesterday saying that is where these tribes cannot break the will of there was this fence access from continuing to support the people of gaza. they have any group, meanwhile, pledged solidarity with the lebanese government and people on a for so there was instance things that they're ready to join in the fights and in which case, essentially it's going to be a multi funded war against as well on maria, just dropping off whole, not international reaction, the watts israel's main allies saying to tell you which have just heard of all these roles intentions to destroy his vala

with someone's really officials making no difference between his bola, allen's love, but on but such intentions. i have to say don't see response from israel's p l i. washington does not support this collision between israel and his ball across the board. or a senior state department official said earlier, heading back to you was, was going to discuss concrete ideas with allies and partners to prevent the war from growth need. however, a hand and precautions measure and taking the u. s. is sending more troops and more vessels to the region. let's take a look. clearly the tensions in the middle east right now. our hi. this is why not only the department of defense, but other us government officials are engaging with their partners and governments throughout the region to reduce those tensions in light of increased tension in the middle east and out of an abundance of caution. we are sending a small number of additional us military personnel forward to augment our forces

that are already in the region. but i have to say that despite the escalation efforts and calls, we have to admit that the escalation is already there, and it is the fiercest in years, in decades, back to you, reinforcing the interest level yes, american talking to us from the root and also into around use such allowing many sites all the law, the arms wing off come us, the cason brigade saves one of its field commanders has been killed in an id. f, strike in southern lebanon are reacting to all the developments political on the list and academic focusing on the middle east side behind burundi sees israel to actions are increasing the leaving a quote despised across the world. this has nothing to do with has wilma, this rain. the regime is by nature, a brutal racist regime. what is done is done to gaza has expose it to the world.

and it had, it is seen across the world as a brutal and racist and illegitimate regime and what it's doing 11 on this is a repeat of what it's doing in gaza. and of course the westbank but has one of those which stronger and the regime will fail him up and on. and it will regret these attacks. but if there's any regime is despise across the region and the resistance which includes the am in 11 on syria, iraq and iran, they will continue to support the palestinian people. they will continue to struggle against this past though. so pharmacist regime and it's aggression and the it will ultimately fail. what is most important is that not only as a is really the economy collapse. not only has its military fail, but most importantly across the world. it is increasingly despised for the genocide . and that's for years of a full scale war,

which boiling point is realize nothing. troops on this northern porter with hundreds of strikes and military targets in 11, all seen in the last number of days. but how much support actually is it or among is released for a conflict with their new or their neighbors. r t dot com has been looking into that. check out our coverage there when you come. well the indian on palestinian leaders have met in new york on the sidelines of a broader un summit's as the address the ongoing blood shed in gaza. the river embodied followed strong support for those suffering. the prime minister expressed deep concern at the humanitarian crisis unfolding and gaza and the deteriorating security situation in the region and reaffirmed india's unwavering support to the people of palestine, including continued humanitarian assistance. well, when the war broke out last year, a prime minister, moody called like mood above and emphasized the need to restore quickly in 2018.

mister moody indeed made a historic visit to the west bank. the 1st ever buying indian leader, the voice. hope that palestine would be globally recognized as a sovereign nation, former indian and buster to morocco into a scrub. who dial to an artsy, his nation has always been there for the palestinian people in depth of all. that is danielle gold. it is a day where boggles law, sorry to bother see, has been very consistent in simple g to stage solution when the finest digits fever are able to live the independent country within 6, your borders. i'm going to do a dr. the security deed. so we have a very bad coordination on this form to form. we do not want a, the escalation of the con, stick to the matrix. we more that this will be

a lot to seduce here. and that's why the a, b, g, or bodies. the foster conditions we've got to do it the resuming direct these tables here as early days. so we're not private, it's just me. and i may just, i mean, the president obama, the ask all the style and probably you said that you need the support do solution, which would be be, so the region we have the line with all the long standing and cause the position because on it and we see that the shouldn't be a viable, solid, red, independent state of palestine. we didn't recognize as mutually agreed bought was living side by side with israel in peace rushes, defense ministry states. ukraine has lost over tooth fell, is in service meant in the past 24 hours. that's as moscow intensifies are children

or strikes on keeps forces with reconnaissance units being a crucial role in showing the precision and accuracy of the missions. according to the m. o. d r t r a big smoke. some altura joined one of those barre units operating in the in bottles patrol sweet. it's hot, obviously, if i could ask the upside of the covers direction, one of the toughest spots on the front lines to some of the special needs or operations, the russian troops of a central group of forces. he had to continue their rapid advance taking control. many settlements with the support of reconnaissance to you. this is just a total here recognizance unit. so essentially, google forces raise it in the bulk of direction of the return in, in arms b, then feed the bronze after completing the company's mission to the bottom of the board on possible. how many groups carry out the task break through animal lines. the also to surveillance and identify the coordinates of any positions for their

subsequent shelving done, because yeah, these units reviewed as on what details of the presence only for immersed. and the reason why then again, flushing forces in these direction. and more of a sudden the task was sending the boat crowds direction to check the enemy. so the report coordinates for actually showing the, getting the cornerstones we spotted for the most in the reese and there were no opportunities to go down to them. but we engage and destroy them out of the was wounded, but went on and spawn anatomy stalls and reported his coordinates. it has been destroyed order service. how do i have to call you my phone number is 2 units arrived from the college of to vall kind of rated cell the how to get in bottles in the day of cost of and for across the directions and pacific elizabeth to have been here since small just, i have learned that you should never abandon your comrades in arms in this trouble . if they were in a difficult situation, you need to try to do with everything to get them out of them. but i know no one wants to come right, was wounded by a shell. i dragged him to a safe place,

gave him a 1st aid, and then his comrades dragged him to the rear and i myself returned to the assaults . the smart thing is, so we received the task of taking the 4 forest building at once, and we went there in armored vehicles. our artillery fired on the positions and we quickly reach them for policies of them and gain a foothold for both. we held a circular send somebody off enemy attacks, defended them for several days, and then reinforcements arrived out of football is the oxide and what have you called a lot of them can, might done. recognizance is one of the most dangerous task, some of the battlefield units. are low as, as a for fraudulent for playing a key role at the end. a successful planning, execution of various male treat operations phenomena, lexie moultrie, odyssey, cross cuz direction. i know the colonization of the african continent by competing at european countries. it was a bloody and brief la for but even by those standards, the french takeover of molly was particularly.
