the, the the breaking news at this time, russian troops to gain control of a stronghold, atlanta, a key logistics point in dumbass. the huge pillars of smoke rise over the lebanese capital as these really strikes once again rain down on the roof. eighties rarely troops are killed and the has plum, i'm bush, as the idea of attempts to expand its frontline loos, ward 11 on the air is heavy with tension as big unmistakable sound of

his reading until the react case in the distance firing off every 5 to 10 minutes each tongue. during blas signals supposed full idea of troops, the bold when he crossed into lab and on and to find the gravity solve the unfolding complex. the while this is our thing to national, reaching you from a new center in moscow. i a michael watching. now let's start with the breaking news that russian troops have gained control all the stronghold of glinda, a key logistics point in dump, and that's according to the russian defense ministry. with more details here is our to use egos done of it is very important that even when you look at the symbolism and at the symbolic, important send of the symbolic weight of a rush of finally liberating the town of hopeless. basically this day marks and,

and to ukrainian attempts to stay in control of that town and the fighting has been going on for good for over 2 and a half years. now there's several factors at play here. we should both at 1st played in ukraine's favor and then the to basically just to the collapse of their own defense. so here's the thing to understand about over the while it is a small place. it is a town that is pretty much it because it's pretty much of a soviet be around apartment block residential quotas and buildings. it is very compact and at the same time it is situated on the dominating the heights in that area and is at the same time again, is surrounded by open fields with scars, free lines which may the very approach to this town for the russian forces. incredibly, incredibly difficult. there's very little places where you can take cover. uh, also at the same time, from booklet you can see via pro,

you can see pretty much everything that is going on. kilometers and tens of columbus is all around that. this was what allowed the ukrainians to stay in control of that place for so long. but basically what i'm saying this now the especially now that russia, he's in control of that town. and now that russia can see everything that is going on around it. of course, the russian commodities will try to capitalize on that. so it is one tactics wise when it comes to tactical success, it is quite important for russia, but that might be not the impression you get if you listen to western and ukrainian suicide is it seem is they are acting in accordance to the old playbook that they would kick into the 5th. yeah, the rest week would kick into the for gear. and basically they would say that's no good. in fact, was not that important. that they wouldn't give russia much advantage when it comes to the battle field. and when it comes to the fighting,

we have seen that sort of rhetoric repeated time and time again. when you can be ukrainians, had to had to flee from back, move now to 12 months when they had to flee from money and go from solar. and to basically a whole range of other of other towns and cities and villages, which they will just throw everything that they have. i mean, talking about the ukrainian forces to keep, to basically stay that to keep these towels onto the control. but the moment that they realize that they simply can no longer hold onto all these places. no good. uh, they would just say, oh, it was an important in fact, this is something that might be coming out of washington because this sort of line the of these talking points have be repeated by the most high profile, washington officials have a list. we don't know how it's going to go, so i'm not going to predict failure or success here. but even if

the both backed mood and so with our fall to the russians, it's not going to make a, it's not going to have a strategic impact on the war itself. and it certainly isn't gonna stop ukrainians or, or slow them down in terms of their, their efforts to regain their territory. now the russian official confirmation of liberating the town of the comes a few days off to videos, begin to emerge online coming from russian brigades and coming from russian drogo practice showing russian soldiers putting flags on top of the buildings and basically all across that town which was already interpreted by russian military experts and international military expos that the town fell and that the town was in control of the russian. i'm pauses. but now that the russian ministry of defense has confirmed it, it is safe to say that the clean up operation of the town is done that the old would, that nobody is hiding in the basements, and that well, basically,

the town is under the russian control. meanwhile, in germany, these thousands of people have taken to the streets of a capital demanding urgent peace towards the end of may. the conflicts include the watering ukraine, the some of the demonstrators of how the post as about these historic relationship between russia and germany, and others demanded the immediate peace thoughts for gather that, but on and cold for the country to quit the nato. now the event was held on the anniversary of german reunification as a huge weston support for ukraine has so far failed to count a russian forces kia has been pressing its allies for f. 16 fight the debts more than a year, but their retard nato commander doesn't believe, even if they are delivered. they will make such

a difference and revise ukraine's fortunes. obviously f 16 is uh, what are the best a got a full full find 5 destination is both to make a difference because otherwise that is bottles. okay. and wasn't very bogged for all. what was the uh, model which has been given to you any the older border on it? we're not able to back the bus to 8 o'clock which of us here. they have asked you 57 also. they have big talk, the one on 2. they have a she would put the if i s on so which odd a 5th generation in dog. so the blind today is the f. 16 be labeled to match on on the problem v tabs it does abundance have not been given a fort benning had been given to me which has been shortened and therefore they may not be wednesday and also a sort of a differential. but yeah, it's been sun, that'd be file thought to be the thing, don't go well as for under then there's like

a 100 and to the mid leaves. now being rude has once again faced a fresh round of he's ready strikes with at least 6 logic explosions. been heard in the lebanese capital, the huge pillars of smoke was rising above the city of the idea of playing the hits hospitalized intelligence headquarters. i think communication center, not number of casualties are still on those. are these you asking that can isn't the city and sense of this report? the current attacks, however, we understand one of them were targeted da here. here's below stronghold. another was actually in japan and this is unprecedented in one way or the other. this would march at least the 3rd time that israel has carried out a strike outside of the headquarters outside of has the headquarters. and we understand that they targeted shopping in the north. this is a shy village, which is also predominantly populated by christian citizens. question ebony citizen

or within those parts of the country. those areas have been deemed to be safe away from the complet away from the politics. but it seems that the is really, rates have been finding its way and entering its way closer to civilian and residential areas. but what we do now is that the nature of these attacks are also shifting. we spoke to one of the residents, of course, about the nature of the attacks and he provided us further information as to how things unfolded. but more importantly, the rest of those folk 2 lives, one floor above the residential building, the, the floor that was targeted by this red stripe. and he said that he had to evacuate the building with about 20 others of his family while he was sitting down at 1 o'clock who were sitting on the veranda. there were children, women, and men there. and the rock, it appears when the rockets flew inside and exploded, the walls collapsed either onto the street or onto the stairs. there was no entrance to the buildings. all the walls collapsed was blocking the stairs. we

started throwing stones down and made a route for all the residents of the building to go down the stairs. we cleared them so that people could get out. he is really rates targeted has the loss of media offers. this in and of itself is a matter of concern because of the journalists, much like myself, have to visit that, said media office to essentially get the accreditation or permission required to operate in areas throughout the country. this is an essential part of our job, and we understand that the is really rates targeted that building and the general popular opinion is that the attack came at the time when his beloved decided to open the doors of law. he had to allow journalists into the hezbollah stronghold. it's an area that is under constant surveillance. we understand that not all of da here was open to journalist. there was a small part, it was just one side of many attacks over the course of the past week. or 2, and we understand that the attack on his what was made the office was most likely

a result or a response to his beloved opening. so as to about hundreds of journalists said, our friends following this story. and we understand that israel has a track record of attacking journalist indiscriminately over the course of the past year. ever since the early days of october 2023, many journalists lost their lives as a result of these attacks. and the attacks are escalating, the scope of the attacks are also growing. we understand that the nature of the attacks are also worrying and concerning, not just for people within da here, but all across the country. and as we follow the story, it will become that much more important because the reality is people fleeing this conflict have very little options to seek refuge. where i know where i say the idea of has confirmed, at least 9 of its troops were killed in an ambush by half bullet forces in southern lebanon. and that's us. these really troops tried to push northwood on the very day . the idea of analysis ground a ration um at least bureau chief was in northern. these roll incense this report.

4 days after the official announcement of the idea of limited ground operation in 11 on there was still little information on the armies. advances tactics or movements troops continuing to target his bowlers combat infrastructure. that's about all we know for now. we put on our protective gear with a threat of attack still high and had toward these really lebanese border, closer to the front line. you might expect them to rose due to the situation, but instead we have stuck in a heavy traffic. and this is when the siren went off the we follow the instructions. always rows home from the command, the best time to tar was not very loud. which means that it is not exactly in our area, but still people decided to stop and get out on the cars and wait for some time.

this is what we doing to police car is now started moving. so we continue driving, passing signs for cities and towns their names, feel familiar. we've been seeing them constantly on the rocket to look at each one marking another place. targeted all hate to find themselves. these are all the rocket attacks and the last 28 minutes. and this recent one was the area where we are driving right now. we are some were here and just past car man. and this is where we heard the siren says israel's air bombardment of 11 on begin 11 days ago. his bullet has launched hundreds of broadcasts and over 9000 since the conflict started last october. the further north we go, the fewer cars we see,

most of the vehicles we pass on military, some carrying soldiers likely on route to the front. the mc ones are probably returning for reinforcement. parts of the north have been declared and military zone. we passed through a new check point that wasn't here just days ago. back when the ground operation was still just the room or to the actual when i was home to 25000 people is now it goes town with only soldiers inside this, it is really a salary for who they are stationed somewhere around cadet tomorrow. we had to the highest point to get a better view. the sound of a to refile grows more frequent targeting areas and 11 on which is just nearby. we reached kitty edge small, one of the biggest is really c t at the northern boulder from this hill top in the middle of the town. a panoramic view opens up 11 on surround us on 3 sides,

including behind me with a more or less than 5 kilometers away. the air is heavy with tension as the unmistakable sound of is really a to react case in the distance firing off every 5 to 10 minutes. and each time. during blas signals support for id f troops that have already crossed into lab and on and to find the gravity, how the unfolding conflict next to carry out small and arise at the boulder since the tiny, picturesque, jewish settlement ultimate tula. now another no man's land. it's destroyed and burns houses are a stark reminder of the fridge. all 6 ortiz, that is sold off now due to the ground operation. we were among the last journalist a visit and before the closure, the only person we met there was the mayor who not only supports his really troops on the ground and lab and on, but sees no other way to ensure the safe return of these really, residents it myself,

the city that you're in order to eliminate the threat of anti tank missiles and of what they have under ground. we need to enter at least the 1st 10 kilometers to destroy the danger physically. we're in favor of the operation and we understand the war means we will bear losses. but to save the state of israel and bring back the deterrence, we don't have a choice. then we live in the middle east. don't forget and they don't respect any agreements in 20 or 6. we signed un resolution, 17 o one, and they didn't keep it. so we can't stop this as an opportunity, then we can't lose a lot. so at the time when the us, the, you and 10 other countries offered an immediate cease fire plan 2 is tensions between israel and his fella. df tanks were already deployed at the lebanese border . we filmed them back then. several days ago we were here and we sold dozens of these really tags on this field. we are not allowed to disclose the exact

location because it's my thing, danger the troops. but i can say that we're several kilometers away from the lab and he's old. it was before the official announcement of these really ground operations. since then, the significant part of the tank was into lab incursion as now we do not see more than 10 percent. now speaking in guitar, you, ron's president, says his nation has shown enough restrained body as well as actions and guys on that and on have pushed to the ease law, making the public to respond. you may have the model, we have waited for peace, but these cowards instead of ending the killings of people becoming even more brazen and gaza and loving on. no criminal in history has committed crimes like theirs. and we have been forced to respond if they want to act, otherwise we will respond to more forcefully. the security of the region is the security of all moslems. and we do not seek war and bloodshed since i was elected

president. i have been careful in all my speech is to say that we seek peace. we seek. com, no country or region kind of chief development by war. we do not want more israel, but it's forcing us to response. while we're on the president position for y'all's trip to go, how came on the hill? so if it was missiles tri county as well. uh so that visit is really important, especially since guitar is known for it's often intermediary roles and brokering talks among different parties, particularly of the ongoing negotiations for a cease fire in gaza. which as i'm also what else that one's sought after goals actually. uh the main reason why it one had held off on its response, please males actions after the death of his mind. honey. yeah. was that it had to hold for a ceasefire in garza so uh wow. and guitar position, concepts uh, strategic patience and self restraint proved to be wrong. who by give on he criticized these well over the killing of the leader from us on july 31st. which

leads is blaine's that on his way i'll and as well as neither claim nor denied responsibility, opposite accounts that it was adopted or what he called strategic jobs. so for spring since then, but then as well became quote, more brazen, assassinating the leader of his blah in living on how sudden us for a long and expanding guy, this cold target separations in lebanon. i don't get press conference because already in me or reiterated his country's commitment to a mediating flood between as well and how mas withdraw i, it's been ongoing for almost a year. now this as despite the international efforts, including guitars, mediation, progress towards the ceasefire in gaza has been pretty sluggish, definitely, to the recent escalation in the past days. and 11 on is what we weren't about since the beginning of the is really aggression. and it is increasing and the state of could tar has worked intensively to reach

a ceasefire and contain the conflict with developments or accelerating. de escalation means that the occupation army stops it's on just war on our brothers and gaza and the west bank. and it's aggression on 11 on and of course, during case to day visit to do an opposite scale and also a met with salty for administer. faithful been for hardware, the discussed as well as actions in gaza and loving on, even though we off has mostly just been vocal in criticizing the ongoing tensions. i've been for hard phrased what he described as it was, was them and ask for teacher vision and managing regional issues and promoting peace and stability. of course, uh, this might be the 1st time. so the revenue has openly appraised iran for its actions in that region. and that's exactly what position kion was hoping for during his trip. he said that is what's the nation's unite against as well then tell of eve will not be able to continue its actions against muslims in gaza. so let's see

what comes out of this was a but for now though, as well, has them stepped off its actions 11 on and continues to switch and strikes on everyone's sensitive facility is. meanwhile, everyone has warned that such actions could trigger a 2nd phase of missile attacks. this time targeting does as of already identified major sites. and as well as the middle east is dr. deeper into k all set off again, has called all these rules action saying that it's the most vulnerable people that are paying the heaviest price. the government of south africa is gravely concerned about the continuing escalation of military action by the state of israel on the state. of palestine and the lebanese republic, as well as the subsequent response by the islamic republic of iran on 1st of october 2024. in this context, south africa calls on all parties to exercise the utmost restraint. and to avoid any act that would escalate tensions in a particularly fragile region,

as it is vulnerable groups who suffer the most under conflict. by les tress now live to kim hannah, author of the book. no white lies kim. i'm glad to have you join the right now. now, the gap between israel and the rest of the world has grown wide since the beginning of the bombing campaign and lab or not have a tel aviv no longer seem to care about what others think. why do you think that is? thank you for visiting me. it's a pleasure as always. and i think that israel has never really cared about the opinion of most of the will because it seems to believe that it has a god given right to invade. not only the church of palestine, which the union has the k as equal and as each as well to, to leave within the next 12 months. but israel seems to feel that it has

a right to the church street in the middle east. and we see the most devastating a text on the people of live and on syria and other other regions. and it seems like there's no end to that despite condemnation from the world at as recent as of last week's you in june was simply the spot quote, quote, readings of the highest court in the globe. israel continues and i see not even using book to cool quotations, justifications for this help on the news that they are creating. so it says if no one will stop israel and what's the assignments of the u. s. it gives you sort of a license to keep invading and devastating the life of many, many innocence in that region. all right, talking about the quote to south africa has launched a legal action against israel accusing it of committing genocide in god. but now, do you think it's lawsuit could be expanded? now the news world has invaded lebanon. i think we have to be honest about the

impotency of the united nations and the quote dropped at this point while south africa did the right thing. and it shows concrete support by taking tangible action . it seems like none of those majors affective and what is standing between justice and injustice in the middle east is the united states because the fee to right is preventing and justice being done for the people. because israel is marching. ringback and who knows, in one us time, what the casualties are going to look like. they are invading countries, they'll killing innocents. and that's with the permission i believe, of the united states. well, actually settings where there's moving on despite the the ruling from the i c j. so far, you still haven't complied with the ruling,

so i'll be international court of justice. do you think it ever will as well, if we look at history and history is often a good teacher, we see that it still never has. and it's because they believe that they all the chosen people and they don't fit to be. now the, the army, i think of the united states who a rock now officially called the seem to be to engaged in get to another war. and i think until the united states tools and stuff, they're not going to do that. they're not going to listen to any other organ. and as long as arms and munitions are being put into the stage, the conflict that is what is responsible for with the backing of the u. s. nothing's going to stop. in fact, we just going to see an intensification of this. and you know, the world is watching the things across the world of confidence containing this. but we see most of the governments of the waste of complicity and remain inside that side of this, which is

a very interesting indicator of israel's disrespect for international and united nations. is the fact that it has not been painted the general secrecy of the you in from its territory. so what we think today is, as far as becoming the world's most dangerous colonizer of the state. now the south african economic freedom fighters ponti has called the ron. so attack on these roll. unnecessary defense. now we'll just see it that way. yeah, absolutely. and nothing. anyone, irrespective of religion, geography, ideology, any one who understands a justice in the world would see that because it's real cries as cry of self defense. but it's not the case. they have been the a tech to. and i think the if a statement of causes is wells and evil acts in this

regard, it's fairly places as well as the police. we all know that someone in denial trust some are trying to shift the propaganda. but that is very evident. and i also think what the if statement was very important in regards to was it, it's 6. ok. it's right on the question. not only in the last month and the last year or the 2nd to use this isn't a race of regime. in fact, somebody from the economic freedom of fights has spoke about israel as a rope state. and that's exactly what it's done. it's actually um, even if it kills many, many more people, its reputation is shot, it will never recover. i think it's israel, that is in trouble as a, as a just to mate body. it never has been but it's legit to me. legitimacy not is completely shocked in the us of any one to save as it stands for justice. although

we have to live here now kim hannah, author of the book, no wide lives. thank you so much for you inside here. thank you so much. great countries all around the blow by now calling for the escalation in the mid least ask the specter of the why the war gro, was by the de indonesia says it's about creating and citizens from the conflicts of indonesia is very concerned about the latest developments currently taking place in the middle east region and urges all parties to exercise restraint. indonesia is very worried that the potential for war on a larger scale could occur. the safety of indonesian citizens also continues to be the main concern of the indonesian government. in this regard, the process of evacuating indonesian citizens from lebanon is also ongoing. in asia has successfully evacuated 25 of its citizens from 11th. non following is raleigh's

air strikes in the area flooring. it is the moment of cd confirmed that the group is part of the $155.00 innovations living in level non and have sees we've made it to celia and now they are waiting to be transported back to the presidential. can we do it, or has also called for immediate action to ensure the space peaks off in a nation's trying to flee 11 on as attacks from his rally intensified leadership through it's for, you know, fierce ministry has also stated that it conducts design. and this is for allergies, continued aggression through it's military air strikes and dropped off on the against level not under line a as are all action clearly violated security stability. and also, all that is the attack that is happening is contributing the united nations charter at international law. we must urgently prevent a dangerous cycle of action and reaction which threatens to drill even more

policies into the conflict, further deepening instability, and broadening the scale of destruction. malaysia urges all concerned parties to take immediate action to reduce hostilities an established conditions necessary to prevent abroad or regional conflict from interrupting the malaysian government is joining to international communities in asking and also urging an urgent ceasefire to prevent a further humanitarian protests. sophie 11, not and that's the update. now all of us stay with our team to national for the latest, from the middle east and around the world. i'll see you again. thanks for watching the successfully. so i would have to be using this. nobody.
