israeli towns are on fire like rohavat in southern israel and ashkalon seen here, burning after resistance rockets landed there. so dire of the situation, israelis were forced to hide in trash bins. meanwhile palestinians in the gaza strip are looking for cover while sounding defiant when it comes to israeli regime forces. طلعنا من الدار وقايه بس وقايه من صواريف اليهود وان شاء الله ربنا بينصرنا عليهم عزابون كثير وان شاء الله الدور عليهم ان شاء الله دائره السوق عليهم ان شاء الله باذن الله war between gaza and israel is not just limited to the gaza strip, since the resistance group, the lions den is also operating out of the jendane refugee camp. this war has been the result of decades of negligence by the so-called international community, which as a result, israel has gotten away with the murder of palestinians with the support of its biggest allie, the us. israel is finding itself on shaky grounds, even though it has... mobilized reservists or shortages since reservist along with pilots have refused to take orders due to its so-called judicial reforms, which is why this announcement by ne

other my left shoulder you can see the city of ashkalon.ver my right shoulder you have the gaza strip. that gives you a sense of exactly where we're located just now. we heard all of those sirens in the city and in other cities around the gaza strip. we're just hearing now from the ambulance service, from a spokesman, there were two injuries from those rockets in ashkalon. i think you have images up. i can't see from here right now. i think you have some images of the damage that is already being reported. and it's important to note that, look, the iron dome obviously takes out a large majority of the rockets that are being fired from gaza. but with every barrage of rockets there is always this possibility of what we're seeing right now. big, massive structural damage but also, of course, the possibility of injuries and the possibility of people being killed. and this is kind of the psych lodgegical impact as well of th constant barrages. people are on edge here. you do get the sense that this is a country on a war footing but that it is al

overnight hamas claimed to have launched a missile attack on the southern israeli city of ashkalon. officials say hundreds of rockes were fired targeting safe houses. sgroing me now is reuben hazan from the hebrew university. in the midst of this surprise attack by hamas a lot of comparisons are made to the 1973 war. how much did that 50 year anniversary play into this attack by hamas you think? >> oh, i don't think had anything to do with it. let's remember, we are commemorating yom kippur over two weeks ago so while it might fall closer on the regular calendar this has already passed. i think what hamas is doing is much more related to what has happened in israel over the last year and not what happened 50 years ago. you have to remember that ever since the elections which were november of '22 a new government was formed in december and in january they announced that e-they -- they were going to begin to dismantle the judicial branch. since israelis have been protesting in the streets, some of the reserve troops have not shown up and this was an internal weakness that was perceive

screens of which we are looking at three in particular ghaza now and then what happened for example in ashkalon which just went away unfortunately there are seven eight to maybe up to 10 locations that the palestin resistance fighters are involved and as we're looking at the skyline there in the ghaza strip of which uh it was hit again by israeli um, i guess fighter jets or or whatever they're using via air, could be drones also, not too sure about that. our corresponent did indicate that that area that was hit uh may have uh been a gas station in that location, which is why we saw the black plumes of smoke that were rising in the air, so the launching of israel's uh air strikes continues and it has increased, just to give you an idea, 500 to 700 locations to have been hit in the gaza strip, and uh up to 1,00 tons of ammunition that were used, and one of the biggest worries and concern, our correspondent indicated that hopefully they're not using any type of depleted uranium in these um air strikes that are happening. also white phosphorus uh was also used based on the account that our correspo

the resistance group also fired missiles at ashkalon in southern israel early today.f naharia for the first time. meantime, algos brigades, the military wing of the islamic jihad resistance movement, say they have struck an israeli settlement in the occupied territories. over 200 israels have been killed in attacks by the resistance front since october the 7th, some 4500 others have also been wounded. israeli troops and settlers have killed a number of palestinians in violent attacks across the occupied west bank. the exact number of fatalities remain sketchy, but some reports say 12 palestinians were killed in an israele reid into the nur shams refugee camp. many were injured. also, a 16-year-old palestinian was killed in the city of tulk. several palestinians were also killed in ablus and ramala. during the raids, at least 10 israels. have been wounded, nearly 80 palestinians have been killed in the west bank since the start of israel's bloody onslot and the fully beseeg gaza strip on october the 7th. the occupied territory has been witnessing fierce confrontations

, heavy brage of rockets fired from the gaza strip. in 20 minutes, more than 5,00 rockets target ashkalon, ashtad and tel aviv. a doomsday scenario for the israeli regime. hamas beats the hell out of the occupation forces. at the same time, the palestinian resistance group feels its gunmen, they cross into several highly protected israeli towns. in a dramatic reversal of roles, palestinian fighters control illegal settlements near gaza while armed settlers run for their lives. hamas fighters captured dozens of israeli soldiers and civilians. the israeli regime is caught off guard, its military and intelligence capability humiliated. this is operation al-aqsa flood, the pent up anger of nation which has been under occupation for decades. history is in the making. see the the flood of al-aqsa is a an normal response from the palestinian people to the continuous oppression and offensive of the israeli troops against our people for the last 75 years. to know more about operation al-aqsa flood, we talk to mr. khalid qaddumi, hamas's representative. in iran. he told us why the resistance group

um couple important developments, one uh warning has been issued by abu ubeida to the settlers of ashkalon where he said you need to leave your residences, we will begin a larger scale operation soon, another piece of news that is making his rounds and uh is rather important, although uh remains to be seen as to whether anything will transpire. is that uh israel has issued a warning to the hospitals in the northern part of the occupied territories uh to be a state of alert, maybe there may be another front to be opened up there with lebanon. there have been the incidence of clashes that took place there, some marters uh from the resistance side, israel is responsible for that, even though there has been retaliation from hisbollah and the resistance fighters, but that uh situation. there is somewhat fluid also, but it's a state of alert, but what we're looking at macaza strip, if you look at the origin of where that smoke is coming, you can see sparks, which shows that something's happening in the form of combustion, at nighttime these images are actually much more amplified because you see

seven cities of abirsheba, ashkalon and ashd have also been targeted. the vitalitory operations come as israel has been massing its troops and tanks near the gaza fence and getting ready for a ground invasion. israel has used internationally banned white fosphorus bombs in his strikes on gaza's karaman neighborhood. over. 2 million palestinians are trapped in the gaza strip, which is known as the world's biggest open-air prison. author and journalist robert fantina says israel's brutal bombardment of gaza is another proof that the regime never wanted to give any concession to palestinians and will never do so. rad is not going to be uh in any rush now to normalize. relations with israel following this this uh barbaric uh barbaric genocidal action against the people in gaza, this is collective punishment, it's a uh violation international law, starving people uh preventing from getting water, these are these are crimes against humanity, and the uh israeli regime is is - performing them a daily basis, committing them a daily basis and the rest of the worl

southern israeli towns of ashkalon, ashdod and sebroth.

the resistance group also fired missiles at ashkalon in southern israel early today. at least two missiles have reportedly hit sterot. sirens also sounded in northern city of naharia for the first time. meanwhile, alq's brigades, the military wing of the islamic jihad resistance movement say they have. struck an israeli settlement in the occupied territories, over 2,0 israelis have been killed in the attacks by the resistance front since october 7th, some 4,500 others have also been wounded. laila khalid, the iconic face of the palestinian course gave an interview to press tv. she is known as the first woman to lead an airplane hijacking and fighting alongside men for the freedom of. country, la says the resistance has existed from the start of the israeli occupation. let's take a listen. now the israelis from them, they occupied palestine and until also after 1967. the resistance was there. even my woman, the woman in. they were not studing, they are putting explosives and at the stations and and they were centers for life, of course every act should use on the tacti

the cyber attacks, the resistance was able to hack the phones of israelis and warn them to leave ashkalond to brag about is obviously a weakness point rather than point of strength. this chaos and hastiness in decisions will lead to further collapses in israel. this clearly shows there was no plan for confronting what happened. seem to be huge in terms of an extended war taking place, a war in which iran, would enter, which impelled a connect member to describe the war as iran's war on the regime, israel today suffers the biggest crisis we have ever known, it is the war of iran on israel. "the southern hamas attack was its first step in this war. we are before a challenge of multiple fronts, since now we see how we are clashing with hazbullah. it is said that in case of a land invasion and gaza, hizbullah will interfere. i advise we take this seriously, we cannot change what already happened. also, israeli media revealed israeli-american talks to discuss the role of us forces that washington has sent to the region. and message the israeli sent through the french to hazbullah. the most imp

territories bordering the ghaza strip are obviously the ones that are being hit first towns like ashkalon, ravat, berishiba, also the rockets making their way all the way through to tel aviv and also al-qads, these towns have been hit, whether it's an israeli settler or israelis. who have their homes uh or structures built on occupied palestinian land are now running for cover. we're going to go to another footage here that we'd like to show you and uh this involves how the resistance fighters are pulling an israelly soldier. out of the tank, the one i just referred to minutes ago, you can see there how they are overwhelmed with the fact that they were able to capture not only a tank, but along with it, they're pulling out an israeli soldier. we understand that there are several israeli soldiers were now held in captivity, and there's one of them that's being pulled out of the tank. at this point, we're showing you these images in order to uh, not only have you see the advance. that are being made by the resistance fighters, it's not easy to go capture israeli tank and let alone have a an

through the attack that has taken place like on the gaza border and the tank that was targeted, or in ashkalon where some of the videos that we're going to probably bring up for you uh showed scenes of a... pretty much a war on one particular street that had some uh dead bodies that were scattered there uh so this operation obviously very expanded one that has been executed by the resistance fighters uh let me come back to you bruno bruno you talked about uh i think you touched on the fact that uh this may somewhat spread out regionally um what are the chances of that happening and uh how do you think that that that would uh transpire? mean do you see that being a um a higher uh possibility as the war extends? yeah, yeah, uh, i'll answer this question, i'll have to leave to another commitment, to another appointment, my my dear friends, i believe that netanyahu will will go on uh, all destroying operation against haza, they will bomb gaza as far as they can, we try to destroy all the infrastructure and make... maybe they will risk a ground force operation door to door, street force, street by

utterly defeated, that is why the most recent attack now against ashdot has been a catastrophe and ashkalon has been an catastrophe for the zionist regime, so if they had to open up a front withballah in the north, it would spell very dangerous situation for them, not only because of hazballah having their capabilities and therefore. is able to enter, i think it will go far beyond the galilee if you look at what the gazons were able to, the garzan resistance factions, they were able to push as close as 10 kilometers from the west bank, last night, they were they were approximately 10 kilometers away, fighters had reached that far in, so if hezballah has to to step into the battle, they will conquer more than just the northern part of occupied palestine, that's for sure, but i think the interpretation is to why the the israelis are very afraid as well is that hazballah has very strategic targeting capabilities they have precision guided munitions and they have lot of this has been a pmg project or precision guided pgm rather pgm project for some time and few missiles would be able to incapac

israeli towns are on fire. like rohabot in southern israel, and ashkalon seen here, burning after resistancethe situation, israelis were forced to hide in trash bins. meanwhile, palestinians in the gaza strip are looking for cover, while sounding defiant when it comes to israeli regime forces. طلعنا من الدارر وقايه بس وقاياه منيهد وان شاء الله ربنا بنصرنا عليهم. to the gaza strip since the resistance group, the lines den is also operating out of genine refugee camp. this war has been the result of decades of negligence by the so-called international community, in which as a result israel has gotten away with the murder of palestinians with the support of his biggest allie, the us. israel is finding itself on shaky grounds, even though it has mobilized reservist or shortages since reservist along with pilots have refused to take orders due to its judicial reforms, which is why this announcement by netanyahu may fall on the fears our enemy will pay a price, the type of which it has never known, that was a statement from netanyahu. the surprise offensive that palestinian fighters executed again

the north of the gaza strip and even we are hearing information coming through about attacks in ashkalon. zakim beach and the zakim area was attacked by by frogman, gaza frogman left the gaza strip via motor boat and dropped into the ocean and they infiltrated through the top. when you look at another form of operation, they used gliders from high level buildings within the gaza strip and glided into into the israeli territory. there is currently a massive size. attacks that is taking place, um, if we look at the rockets that have been fired, i would not be surprised if these are ballistic systems considering the range that they hit in tel aviv, hit a bit further than tel aviv, they've struck al quds as well, and this then compromises the entire israeli military structure, yes, i believe we will see escalation from the israeli regime, however, if there is escalation that comes now from the israeli regime, there will be answer, we've already seen statements coming up. that they are ready to enter the field, we've seen ghazali or shabi's units, they are prepared to enter, they've already d

evacuate the borders of gaza because they'... can't handle the heat, if they can't handle the heat in ashkalon and and that heat rises all over uh the occupied palestine uh i i really i really wonder at the israelis uh ability and their moral resolve and capability to to withstand a long-term prolonged war. thank you very much for that. it's a very good point that you make, we cross on over now against state must withdraw its business dealings with israel and south africa must be a leader. in doing that, it is our responsibility to save the lives of women and children that are turtured in palestine and in gaza particularly. it is us with our unity in struggle that can foster mobilization that will ensure that is achieved. long leave the strigles of the palestinians long leave. amanda, amanda, comrades, we have south african friends. of palestine, comrad naim patel and we also have sheikh gabriels and who are going to give us very very short messages, there is a main message from the anc, i would like you comrades to really stay much more longer and little bit patient because this is moment whe

it's you have dead bodies that are spewed on the streets there this particular one is happening in ashkalon from what i'm understanding based on this video uh which again puts into question whether this is something that is all or nothing in terms of what it wants to achieve because i'm pretty sure that israel cannot afford for this to happen again um israel as it was was on a rocky standing if you agree in terms of what was happening from within israel. in terms of the so-called judicial reforms that have rocked uh that entity for quite some time, accompanied by a massive exit of of israelis, this war perhaps is going to uh amplify the numbers. do you think that that's something israel needs to worry about now? uh, doubt that, um, unless there's like a really really harsh war, you won't see many people leaving. the area i don't think they have to worry about it right now, but if it continues and it continues in a kind of like normal war, eventually, yes, um, as for this, um, the footage, that i can see um, it doesn't look that bad except for a tank is burning, um, it looks must, it looks l

but um, border settlements, between it and lebanon have been evacuated, 28 of them at least, um, ashkalon, yes, a couple days ago, i said the're out the south. towards the nagav desert had been uh evacuated days ago, so uh, it's actually the zinas entity that is um receiding its claims illegal claims on territory uh rather than it's intended to purpose of uh making ghaza do so. thank you for that, we appreciate it. let me thank julia uh cussem their journalists and political analyst. we're going to cross on over to southern lebanon and speak to mariam sal, a correspondent to joins us there. and she's in her gear uh to tell us what are what are the happenings there marian what do you have for us? well now we are in the village of khiam this is considered one of the villages that is closest to the border uh of course we were not able to get closer as we had in the past uh two weeks now there are we are always asked by the lebanese army and by seemingly security basically to move back. uh several kilometers, but from here we can see basically behind me, you can see the hills behind me, those

gaza in israeli settlements, we have heard of... casualties there along with that one soldier in ashkalon, fire broke out a building, well 70-year-old woman was in critical condition, some uh reports say that she has deceased, so if that's the case there's one dead there and about a handful of injuries, but this the figures i'm bringing you from over an hour ago and lot has developed since then, we haven't got the latest figures, but according to mr barud they have dramatically increased possibly, mr barud i'm still trying to find where israeli regime has declared war on gaza, if that's the case, you're right, the face of this conflict is going to be completely different, you remember in 14, the 50-day summer war there, over 2260 palestinians were slain, 550 children in 50 days and average of 10 or 11 children a day, over uh 2400 children were um injured, 1,000 permanently mamed permanently, and over 10,000 apartment buildings were leveled, so and you're saying that this may that may pail in comparison to what we may see in this operation uh it could be very protracted and uh and who know

multiple rockets fell in northern israel, including netanya and hadera, southern cities of birshiba, ashkalon and ashd have also been targeted. siren sounded in city of sadorat as well, according to israely military. 1300 people have been killed since hamas launch its operations. saturday, nearly 300 of them are soldiers. number of injured is 3300. israel meanwhile is massing troops and tanks near the gaza fence. israeli forces and settlers have killed five more palestinians during violent raids across the occupied west bank. according to palestinian media, regime forces fatally shot a 17-year-old teenager and chilia first shot, they first shot him in the back and then prevented his transport to an low area hospital. two women were also killed by israeli forces and separate incidents in romala. israeli settlers also shot and killed a palestinian man and his son an ambush just south of napolis. new fatalities bring number of palestinians killed by regime forces and occupied west bank since saturday to 36 over 650 have also been wounded. and joining us from romala, pardon romala's press tv's mo

was issued by the spokesman of the algason brigades where he talked about how um the settlers of ashkalon need to leave their residences residences because they are going to uh begin a large-scale operation there soon maybe that's part of the operation we're not sure but shows that you know the palestinian resistance factions are still um counterreacting to what is really insane pounding of the ghaza strip by uh israel are the breaking news i guess uh below on your bottom of your screen there also adds to the information that is necessary for you to conjure what it's happening where you have navy warships also that that are f bring into the presige gaza strip from the coastal areas from the sea, which shows uh what uh, there we see another rocket just uh being fired there uh as to how uh israel is being i'm sorry the gaza strip is being uh fired upon by israel a vast scale so much so that that this particular vantage point is not does not cover the whole strip obviously but there's different positions and different areas and different targets there's another rocket that so now you can see

we're seeing some of the rockets come out of gaza now that used to be able to hit ashkalon, about 20 kilometers north of the strip, now can reach jerusalem and tel aviv, which are much further away. anti tank guided missile systems that are going to be prevalent on this battlefield. some of the weapons we saw in the film just now not only the ak 47 but the heavy duty machine gun are things that we haven't seen hamas have before. the heavy machine guns, and what i suggest is even though the narrater said the rockets being shot out of gaza could shoot down aircraft, that's not quite true. those are ground to ground roc rockets but there are indicators and intelligence that said hamas is also got air defense systems. shoulder fired sa 6s, sa 9s. so they have expanded their capability with sniper, machine guns, anti tank guided missiles and as we saw on the attack last saturday, they've incorporated a mini air force as well as a emotional counter attack with a lot of motorcycles that have been trained. so what we're seeing is not only an improvement in weapons ability, but also the impro

overnight hamas claimed to have launched a missile attack on the southern israeli city of ashkalon. 100nside gaza israel is unleashing devastating airstrikes on numerous sites it says tied to hamas and other militants and while the militant leaders are hiding out, gaza civilians are trapped in the strip's narrow confines with nowhere to run. >> reporter: these are the first moments of what prime minister netanyahu warned will be a long and difficult war, airstrikes in the densely populated gaza strip that the palestinian health ministry says left hundreds dead and thousands more wounded. israel's military says it is targeting headquarters belonging to hamas and islamic jihad and released this video. netanyahu vowing to avenge the hundreds of israeli lives lost with more ferocious firepower to come. >> translator: all the places which hamas has deployed hiding and operating in that wicked city, we will turn it into an island of ruins. i am telling gaza's people to leave those places now because we will take action everywhere. >> reporter: but destroying are severely deterring hamas will

you are looking now at live pictures of ashkalon as the sun comes up. it's widely expected a massive military operation will soon engulf this palestinian enclave. hamas video shows a group of militants storming the gaza border on saturday. one of the most fortified places on the border. israel confirms a significant number of israelis, including at least one soldier, have been captured by hamas militants. the image you're about to see is deeply disturbing. it shows the motionless body of a hostage being paraded in gaza in the back of a vehicle. person's whereabouts and condition are currently unknown. the israeli military's warning palestinian civilians in gaza to leave their homes immediately because of the military reprisals to come. it's unclear, however, where 2 million civilians are supposed to flee to. vooe illinois prime minister benjamin netanyahu is vowing to find hamas militants wherever they are hiding. he says hamas is responsible for the well-being of israeli hostages and that israel will settle the score with anyone who harms them. >> tran

cnn's clarissa ward is in the town of ashkalon, israel. how significant is this condemnation of the hamas attack from palestinian authority mahmoud abbas? >> reporter: well, i think, anderson, that on the israeli side, it will be seen significant only in that it took nine full days to issue this condemnation. on the palestinian side, i think it's fair to say that mackhmoud abbas has very little credibility, particularly for those palestinians who are inside gaza, from what we are hearing, abbas issued this condemnation really at the urging of secretary of state antony blinken. he did say that he condemns the attacks, that the hostages must be released, but certainly, on the ground here, i don't think anyone expects this to significantly move the needle, anderson. >> and clarissa, aide workers say that gaza has already plunged into what they call a complete catastrophe. how dire is the humanitarian situation just ten days into the war? and do we have any sense of how many people in the north may have heeded the warnings and moved to the sou

which interestingly enough, our clarissa ward also said she had experienced to the south of here in ashkalon. and i want to turn to nic robertson, he is further south, just a mile east of the israeli border with gaza, where you have been since the very beginning, in of course what is now that buffer and militarized zone. so nick, what are you seeing there at 2:00 in the morning here? >> yeah, it feels quieter than previous evenings, although we have had some big flashes and booms of the occasional missile strike going into the north of gaza. there was an incoming volley of rockets from hamas in gaza over here intercepted by iron dome a couple of hours ago. that was the only volley we've had this evening. but it just shows even despite the heavy artillery, the heavy missile strikes going into gaza, that hamas, islamic jihad, other groups still have some capacity to fire back. so they are still there. and the military incursion that seems to be getting ready and being built up in this sort of buffer militarized border area at the moment, we've been down to watch some of their training, and it

one major city of ashkalon say a rain of rockets an hour ago and luck reigns leading the israeli -- luckilye israeli defense surgeries the iron dome was very active in shooting down just about all of those rockets, but those rockets reached all the way to tel aviv, to jerusalem and to the airport. very active. we are here in this town as you note, and it is for the first time today according to the israeli military, secure this town and about 21 others. there was a something on the other side of us that was literally freed today and it's amazing to think we're in day four of this battle between israel and hamas. you talk about hostages that remains one of the big, very tense stories. hostages taken from this town and elsewhere and you noted it's not just israelis but we believe americans and other nationalities. so the entire world has a stake in what's going on across this border right now. it's why israel is being a bit careful. we have seen a buildup of tanks and armor personnel carriers and other heavy, heavy, heavy duty equipment being moved in place in case the decision is made to go

about two miles from where we are standing headed in the direction of a major southern city called ashkalon. the skies were filled with the rockets. luckily for the citizens there, the iron dome defenses of israel worked for the most part. knocked out most of the rockets. some hit and a sign of hamas's very black humor, they had prior to that had told the citizens of that city to leave by 5:00 p.m. or they would send the rockets. they sent the rockets. very much is going the other way, too, harris. we've been hearing plane after plane after plane of the israeli defense force. the air force hitting something like 250 targets inside gaza that they describe as the infrastructure of the hamas militants. where we're standing right now after 3 1/2, 4 days of fighting, the israeli army is saying they are in control of this town and 21 other towns. but again that's a long time. i will step away and ask our cameraman to show you the scene of the last battle here. this was the police station here. hamas militants were inside and did battle with the police and with the soldiers. and they finally lost

this is the aftermath in the city of ashkalon, not far from the gaza border. this all comes some 48 hours after hamas militants launched an unprecedented attack by land, by sea, and by air, killing civilians and taking hostages overnight. israeli air strikes pummeled hundreds of targets in the gaza strip. israel's defense minister has this morning ordered a, quote, complete siege, saying electricity, food, and fuel will all be cut off. >> the videos show the horror on the ground at a music festival in israel are 260 people have been found dead. this is a drone video of burned out cars at the site. a dash camera video shows a hamas fighter shooting his rifle and taking a hostage. this morning, a spokesman for the israeli military say that hamas have brought dozen of hostages and there could be terrorists hiding in israel now. >> they came in in hundreds. there still could be terrorists. we're slowly scanning each of the communities and we're evacuating the israeli population from these locations. >> cnn's hadas gold is live in jerusalem. hadas, this has been su

heavy brage of rockets fired from the god. a strip, in 20 minutes, more than 5,00 rockets target ashkalon, ashtad and tel aviv. a doomsday scenario for the israeli regime. hamas beats the hell out of the occupation forces.

um couple important developments, one uh warning has been issued by abu ubeida to the settlers of ashkalon where he said you need to leave your residences, we will begin a larger scale operation soon, another piece of news that is making its rounds and uh is rather important, although uh remains to be seen as to whether anything will transpire in.
