... of smoke their post attack by the israelis once again a civilian area of the lebanese capital beirot we have seen these attacks now since monday on on almost uh hourly uh basis monday was the deadliest day 492 lebanese were killed in the monday attacks by the uh israeli regime alone that included uh dozens of children as well as women as well as paramedics. um, it's just - we've also seen retaliatory attacks by hisbollah in support of the lebanese against the occupied northern occupied uh israeli occupied palestinian territories, but yet the uh the resistance movement has for the most part um restricted its uh attacks against uh is really a spy apparatus, a military apparatus. trying to uh not take this to civilian neighborhoods, but this over the past 11 months, the israeli regime while hisbullah, now these now these are the aftermaths of the we just showed you the the suburban of beirot, this is actual live images of the aftermath that apartment building being struck, each of these buildings that is hit, there are sometimes entire families that are uh wiped out, um, it's just been.

carried out successive and extremely deadly air strikes there on the uh southern suburbs there of beirot over the last uh 18 hours. or so, the lebanese health ministry says at least six people, and this is developing story, um, we believe we feel a strong that these numbers are far from the final death holes, but six so far have been uh confirmed killed and over 90 others injured as a result of these uh air strikes by the israeli regime on lebanon, just this last wave, i mean the uh israeli military claims has built a central headquarters was a target of these air strikes, reports say: for 15 missiles in the matter of moments hit a couple residential buildings there um supply supposedly uh leader sayid and executive council chief sheikh hashim sifaiden uh were targets but uh latest reports are still telling us that they are not harmed and they are safe meanwhile iran and many other countries have strongly condemned attacks calling them blatant crime in which washington is accomplice total death toll from nearly a week now of israel aggression against lebanon stands at about 700 with at l

mahmoud obaid, if i'm not mistaken political commentator is joining us live from beirot, mr. obaid, if you could please tell us what you think was the reason behind this agregious attack, this was something... that definitely no one expected, both a technical level and a humanitarian level, however, the israelis have proven time and again that they do not believe in any rules when it comes to their own interests, yes, quiet unfortunate time and grief and anger in swarming the streets specific. in generally in labanon and specifically in the southern suburbs, the bcan, the south, and of course everyone is demanding retaliation to this crime, to this to this hideous crime that was perpetrated by the israeli occupation forces, you said that it is sort of retaliation to the the damage that is being inflicted by the islamic resistance operations on the northern occupied palestine, now the israelis uh have always launched aggressions against labanon since 1948 and if it weren't for the deterrance uh achieved by the islamic resistance, we would have aggressions all the time. now the

it has been two days of chaos in the lebanese capital, beirot.t mariam soleh again with us to get more updates. mariam, can you please tell us about the clashes in southern lebanon? do you have any updates regarding the incidents that have been happening there? have there been any escalation in the tensions? well, it seems that we have now two different or separate fronts. let's begin with what just happened in uh several areas in beirout and in south lebanon. we know that the icom v82 um walkie talkies or radio uh handy transceivers have been uh exploding uh and this seems to be new wave of explosions that now seems to be a cyber attack. uh more evidently than what we saw with the pagers which uh there's a lot of um

the issue is just as he finished his speech, the the bombing began in the southern suburbs of beirot and people were more busy with that, but just as we learned that uh the videos were coming out on social media of how some um representatives and delegations were leaving the hall and how there were lot of protests uh surrounding the un headquarters. in new york, that in itself was considered very significant, and some details that were coming out from his speech, uh, talking about the forces of evil and fol forces of good uh saying that they uh, he he was saying that he needs to uh get rid of the resistance and he will continue with this war, that was a reason for ridicule uh by many people, and people are definitely looking at the israeli regimes uh prime minister as new um nazi um dictator and blood bath and what i'm trying to find the right word to describe them because people here of course um know the nature of the israeli regime itself, but now the israeli regime's prime minister benjamin netanyahu is taking this regime to a whole new level of bloodshed and blood thirsty uh gen

iraqi, an iraqi plane has arrived to the beirot international airport, we know that there are around 20 medical personnel, in addition to medical products and assistance for emergency cases, we also know that a group also of of medical personnel, doctors and nurses, along with their medical appliances and assistance will be coming from the islamic republic of iran. several countries have strongly reacted to tuesday's deadly cyber terror attack in lebanon blamed on the israeli regime. iran's foreign minister in a phone call with his lebanese counterpart strongly condemn what it called israel's terror attack targeting leminese citizens aabasarchi also expressed taran's readiness to provide any help to treat the injured or the transfer to taran the... iranian parliament speaker also slammed the attack saying that killing innocent civilians is the nature of israel. egypt's foreign minister said cairo supports lebanon in meeting its needs and difficult time. syria's foreign ministry said damascus supports lebanon's right to defend itself. ladies and gentlemen, we're interrupting the norma

if you are joining us just now, these are live images from beirot from a funeral procession.sterday, 12 people lost their lives and 2,800 others have been injured, about 180 of them critically as pagers detonated yesterday in lebanon, and those who had those pages with them have been either injured or the... lost their lives, 12 of them. the un human rights chief says that this is a shocking incident that happened in lebanon and it violates international law, so again another violation of international law by the zionist regime. our correspondent mariam salleh, as i told you before, is attending this huge funeral procession, and she is there to give us an update, mariam, if you could please tell us uh exactly where you are, give us an update regarding the people who are taking part in this funeral procession and also breaking news that we have received about another detonation incident. maria mariam, communication is a bit difficult these days in lebanon, we are trying to join our correspondent mariam sal, who is attending this huge funeral procession, we are receiving live i

capital beirot. mr. muhammad obayd as a political commentator who was joining us from the capital city of lebanon. for more details. mr. obaid, unfortunately we had some technical difficulty so we couldn't quite catch uh the points you were trying to make with regards to hazballah and uh its status in lebanon. what does? i was talking about the the that the fact that they made this assassination operation, the israelis with this massacre that they perpetrated, now the number of the civilian victims of the bombardment that killed martter aqil has now mounted to a 45 civilians where marter, so they think they made an achievement and i was saying no today because as we saw the bombardment that took place today of areas in northern galilee and western galileo, this prove has should prove to the israelis that the assassination of leaders that they started early in the early years of their occupation of lebanon with the marterdom of sheikh harb and then with the assassination of martter said abbas al musawi, t

i'm going to get back, very lucky mohammed obaid, political commentator from beirot is back with us. thank you for staying so patiently with us, muhammad, my questions. "my question for you is regarding the colonial settlements, the term that lebanese people are rightly using for the settlement areas. we've earlier heard that the foreign minister and prime minister of lebanon saying that whatever happens during this war, during this altercation, never ever is it's going to happen um that order of things for the israeli settlers to get back to the uh claimed self-claimed..." houses, um, with that in mind, how come netanyahu doesn't even change the strategy and just uh keeps attacking and attacking? the death doll has passed in a 700 in lebanon and more than 42,000 and nearly 42,00 in gaza, what is it going to take to stop him? mohammed, can you hear me? um, i think muhammad's connection still weak, so bruno, maybe you can answer me the question. um, i do not hear your voice, i think there's a connection, i'm here, i'm here, yes of course, i can hear you right now, did did you hear my

iraq's prime minister ordered the dispatch of medical teams to beirot. jordan's foreign minister said his country. supports libanon's security and sovereignty. resistance movements in the west asia region have also condemned the israeli regime over its steady pagjor explosions in lebanon. the palestinian hamas movement denounced the terrorist operation calling it part of israel's systematic aggression against the region with the support of the us. hamas held the israeli regime fully responsible for the consequences of this dangerous crime. the palestinian islamic jihad also condemned the attack. has documented war crime within the framework of israel's psychological warfare, the palestinian mojahidin movement said the regime would pay the price for itanous crimes, yemensar la movan also condemned the attack as a odious crime and violation of lebanese sovereignty warning that israel would pay heavily for escalating the conflict, and iraqi resistance movement said that these terrorist attacks will only strengthen the resilience of resistance fighters in co

from beirot and from the aitani family and the youth of beirot, we tell sied hassan that we will remaine mouths of the israel with iron fist, fear nothing and no one, we are with you until death, we sacrifice our souls, lives and children for you, just have honor and dignity, that is enough for us, we are with the resistance, we support all the heroes of the resistance, and we ask for the support of all lebanese compatriots, what emerges from this is that this war caused the people to gather around the axis of resistance, and we saw that the lebanese nation began to unite, reason at the level of national unity, there is only one group left in the country that was chosen by israel from the beginning, and this group was chosen by israel even before the 1980s and before the establishment of the resistance. the obvious reason for this is that all of its forces are trained in israel. they are dangerous enemies for us, an enemy. as for resistance, according to my personal perception. god willing, i do not speak religiously, and i am against speaking religiously, because imm satur taught us th

, crossing over to beirot, talking to our correspondent on the ground there in beirot, mariam, sale, mariam, go ahead please, yes, well we have been on the ground on the... battlefield from day one of the al flood operation and hazbullah stance of support, of course this is path that goes a long way, it's not, it did not just start on the 8th of october 2023, this is very long path, and hazbullah secretary general was the main throne of the crown of this, and as they mentioned the statement of hazballah, he was the jewel of the hazbillah of the resistance leaders at. today we recall his words as we are heartbroken and we seem to be incapable of perhaps going on with our lives, but this we when we recall his words, for example, after the marterdom of former secretary general sayid abbas musawi, he said that if we are were all killed, if we all were marders and all of our houses were destroyed over our heads, we will continue on this path, we will continue on the path of resistance, will not stop and another also other speeches and words that were very paramount and significant, especi

see um that the fire has broken out, it was another um israeli attack, i'm not sure what part of beirot we are looking at, but it is from the capital of lebanon, that uh, again you see the smoke and the fire taking place, i mean these scenes have been so familiar for us for year now, except now the location has changed, we have seen so much of this in gaza over the last year, um, and said moson, of course, nothing... done to stop the regime, and now we're seeing it in beirot, what is it going to take in your perspective, said mosan, that to stop the israeli regime, obviously it's not going to come from the so-called international community, when one of the main culprits netanyahu was just there speaking to them uh today, so what is it going to take in your perspective? "an awful lot to be honest, because the people who are running the israeli establishment and the population itself are running on absolute uh terror themselves. i mean, this is an interesting angle, but uh, why are why is israel willing to push this hard? uh, well, first of all, they have calculated that their own ability

what they're looking at, these images, they're coming out of south lebanon. and uh the uh capital beirot, well it says south lebanon, but i believe that that may be the area that was just hit uh near uh beirot, i'll have to make sure of what we're looking at, but uh it is a building that the israeli regime has uh uh just recently hit, we do know that a residential building was hit a while ago uh two f presidential building in the golberry area of beirot, now i'm not sure if we're looking at the images coming from that particular uh area outside of beirut or suburbs of beiroot um or if this is southern lebanon, i tend to believe that it is the building, let's see what we can see here, yeah perhaps it is the bill. that uh uh we have reports of being hit in beirot, either way, it is an entity that has been hit by the israeli regime, again we're seeing the second day of aggression and now hazbullah is answering and uh sending rockets retaliatory fire into the occupied territories uh again we're watching this very closely there as people are gathering and looking at the overall situation, wha

tonight again if you're just joining us these are live images coming out of the capital of lebanon beirot to f 2:58 in the morning now bayrut time and this is what the people are dealing with we saw earlier uh of course civilians trying to uh go safe areas if there is safe area, we're back to what we were saying in gaza, there is no safe area, and mariam sad had said earlier, even areas that during the 2006-33 day war um, they were considered safe and they were not hitting them, that is not the case this time, even areas that... for example are mostly jews and christian, but because in that area they actually support hezbollah, that they have been hit, or because people have gone to those areas from the south that they're targeting everywhere, so technically there is no safe area, no one knows where the next bomb is going to go off, because of course residence or residential areas are not off limit for the israeli regime. as matter of fact, they are the main targets, that's what we have seen this last year, that's what we have seen since the establishment of the israeli regime, that non-m

as this ceremony continues in the lebanese capital, beirot. now, we do know that israel targeted a residential area in southern suburbs of beirot, and in that attack the top ranking commanders of the hazballah resistance movement. uh were hit and martered. details of that report is that it was carried out by fighter jet and involved heavy bombs provided to tel aviv by the united states and that is why sheikh naim qasim also appointed to the us as a complicit and did also affirm that the us will also see its destruction the way israel will. you can see people who are now starting to proceed. to bidding farewell to the coffen, the marters of this attack, most notably was the high ranking lebanese commander, ibrahim, it is customary to follow the... offens as they are carried to their resting place in muslim tradition and that is what we see happening now after the speech by sheikh naim kasim. now we also have with us mr. muhammad obaid, a political commentator. mr. obaid, sheikh naim qasim did. say that the retaliations that we witnessed, partic

mahar salom, political analyst joining us live from beirot. now, iraq's islamic resistance has conducted a missile attack on israeli military target in occupied palestine. the anti-terror group targeted various parts of the occupied territories. with the ala-akrap missiles. there were no immediate reports of possible casualties. the group has been launching attacks on israely targets ever since the occupying regime started the genocidal war on gaza early october. the iraqi resistance has vowed to press ahead with its operation against the regime until the us israeli genocide in gaza stops. the group has also targeted american facilities in iraq and neighboring syria ammit growing anger over the us. for the support of israel's onslot on gaza. more palestinians are killed on day 352 of the us israeli genocidal war in gaza as a regime in tel aviv continues to pound the coastal territory with air and artillery strikes. in latest attack at least two. were killed in israeli shelling of kuza town near the conjunus in southern gaza, an israeli attack

people in lebanon hold funeral ceremonies with the victims of israel's air strike on beirot that claim the lives of dozens of people. and the leader of the ansarullah movement says the us failed in its arrogant ambitions to completely control yemen. as the arab country marks is 10th anniversary of his revolution. hello everyone, you're watching press tv live from the studios in tehron. thank you for joining us. the leader of iran's islamic revolution has called on islamic nations to use their strength in. از قدرت درونی خودمون استفاده نمیکنیم باید استفاده کنیم این قدرت درونی می توانه رژیم صهیونی رو این قده سرطانی خبیث رو از قلب جامعه اسلامی یعنی فلسطین برداره و اضاله کنه. آیت الله سید علی خامنه ایting. with the participants of the 38th islamic unity conference in tehran. ambassadors, religious scholars and academic elits from different countries were present there. ayatollah harmoni pointed out that israel has been unleashing its anger at innocent palestinians by bombing schools, hospitals and camps after failing to eliminate the resistance groups in gaza. he said the u.s. support for t

. of cola with guarded missile, at least two people were killed in the attack, earlier strike in beirot's southern suburb of thehier killed at least three people and injured several others. that's an area where an israeli strike led to the martydum of nasrulah on friday. israeli artillery shelling has also targeted the towns of kaffa hamam and majjun in the country south. the lebanese health ministry says nearly 110 people were killed in the regime strikes across. on sunday, over 360 others were injured, some 900 people have been killed in lebanon in a week of intensified israely attacks against the country. earlier we ask political activists and commentator jina rabay to share her thoughts on the israeli assassination of hazballah leader sayid hasan nasrullah. here's what she had to say a a popular. level, the mariridom is in is in fact very devastating to the people, yet, yet, it did not make them become desperate, to the contrary, actually the people became uh, the popular base of hazbullah specifically uh, became more resilient, more determined to win this war, more angry and less sca

as well as uh targets near the beirot international airport. we mentioned uh scores have been killed and and wounded from these attacks, the the death tool is still on the rise as uh paramedics are still able to reach certain areas due to the intensity of these strikes and the material damage they have uh left behind so these uh numbers are on the rise and we're updating you uh by the minute here on press tv now uh we've also seen over 600 thousand lebanese internally displaced that's also creating its own logistics nightmare for uh a lebanese uh officials and authorities trying to deal with such a high number of displaced lebanes in such a short amount of time, that's about a quarter of the entire gaza population that's been displaced in just six days, so joining us now is barry grossman out of balle indonesia, international human rights lawyer, hello barry uh, good morning and hope you're safe and doing well out there in uh balle far from the atrocities that gazan and lebanese have had to endure and continue to endure uh your initial thoughts on what's going on barry and what is th

i like to swing over to miriam now joining us our beirot uh correspondent. hello uh miriam and good morning to you. i know you woke up to this as did many of us. able early morning onslot carried out against these presidential buildings. what's the last you could share with our uh viewers at this point? tell us how much you've learned, miriam? well, daniel, uh, for us here in lebanon, we did not wake up to this, we uh were living it throughout the night, this of explosions and the shelling continued until the early hours of the morning um, all across the southern suburbs of beirut uh, which you could probably see behind me, but it's very difficult now. to be able to see the southern suburbs because of the plooms of smoke, it seems that all of that area has been completely covered with clouds of smoke as a result of the shelling that continue to be seen right now, maybe in less than three hours ago we had perhaps a final strike which we were able to hear all the way to here, which is the at the outskirts of bayroot, the area of mount lebanon, and so... "we ca

in the latest attack and air strike target of the resident. ential building in beirot's southern suburb of dahya with a guided missile, at least two people have been killed so far, earlier attack in the same area killed at least three people and injured several others, that's an area where an israeli airstrike led to the martidum of nasrulah on friday. israeli artillery shelling has also targeted the towns of kafar hammam and the country south. the lebanese health ministry says near... 110 people were killed in the regime strikes across lebanon on sunday, over 360 others were injured, some 900 people have been killed in lebanon in a week of intensified israeli attacks against the country. earlier we asked political activist and commentator gina rabai to share her thoughts on the israeli assassination of hezbollah leader sayid hasan nasrullah. here's what she had to say. a a popular level, the materidom is in is in fact very devastating to the people, yet, yet, it did not make them become desperate uh, to the contrary, actually the people became uh, the popular base of hazbulah specifica

regime, to strike areas around beirot, thousands gather to commemorate the martered hazbolah members. so first of all, it was uh unexpected that we have that many crowds in that area gathering for this funeral, especially after the israeli threats that said that we have begun uh with open confrontation against hezballah and seemingly specifically against the southern suburbs of beirot where the stronghold is or the main supporters are. and so we see today the the brothers in arms are are gathering and meeting together but in the place of martterdom and that does not mean a defeat for hazballah. sheikh naam qasim who is number two in hizballah and he is also out in the open and so therefore there is definitely no fear among hazballah's officials and we saw that lot of the members of parliament for hazballah's block were there uh they were in that meeting place there were also other uh ministers and uh members of parliament that are from other factions that also took perhaps that risk of being there in that uh that gathering despite the israeli threats that said that they will be targe

we hope everything works out, but we don't get scared and beirot is resistance as well. difference for us, because in 2006 they sent a lot of planes. we would like to tell the enemy, and specifically the criminal netanyahu, the butcher who doesn't fear god. he crossed all the red lines. it's not worse than the massacres he committed in gaza, south of lebanon, and now in southern beirot, so he can do whatever he wants. they are sending messages and making calls. while the resistance exists, we won't be afraid of them. they are scred more than us. on the contrary, the shops are open and the business is usual, and thank god for everything. we are people.

let's bring in human rights activist lina rabai, who's also joining us from the lebanese capital beirot. miss rabai, please share with us your views on the recent israeli attacks, the escalations which have left many innocent civilians dead and injured, the attacking south uh the recent terror attacks, the pageron waki blast uh in lebanon, the hezbollah chief uh said hasan nasal says that the deadly wireless device explosions by israel actually amount to a declaration of war on lebanon. good evening to you and to all first tv viewers, again and again israel attacks civilians in lebanon, as israel claims that it is attacking military members of his. low when it is actually, it actually knows that it is attacking civilians in lebanon today, nothing is confirmed yet, but as um rumors as a witness, i would say as rumors are saying that that a chief mil military chief in hizbullah was the was the target today, but but again civilians were the ones targeted and kill, okay so um, i we have emphasize something first here, that by one signature, by one decision, the usa can stop the israeli aggr

the latest on what you have, well we are observing the situation here in the southern suburbs of beirot, we have not seen a new uh attacks and strikes and in this area specifically, the last strike that was conducted near the capital was in the heart of the capital, actually in the area of which is called coca-cola area uh that is the main station of most of the buses and and the place where people gather in order to go to the various districts uh in lebanon uh that in the middle midnight strike struck that that area that building which led to the martidom of four people including three members of the popular front for the democration for the liberation of palestine uh but apart from that we have not observed any attacks here in beirot or in the surrounding of beirout however the sound of drones continues of course to hover uh all over the skies and various areas at very low altitudes, in addition to the sounds of the airplanes, the israeli fighter jets today broke the sound barrier in many areas in lebanon, especially in south lebanon, specifically over the city of sydon, and that was

beirot and other parts of lebanon for second day on wednesday resulting in casualties and even fires. a uh second attack blamed on the israeli regime. 20 people were killed and more than 450 wounded in wednesday's attack. that's according to lebanon's ministry of public health. now tuesday thousands of hezbollah pagers exploded killing 12 people then and wounding nearly 3,000 including children. uh mostly ordinary uh citizens as most of those uh little micro blasts went off all over the city and uh crowded metropolitan areas of beirot inside grocery stores and classes and um in in mosks um in in the taxis and bus stops and bus stations side buses and it was just um nothing short - strong campaign of terrorism that basically targeted the civilian population for the most part there in uh beirot, you can see a couple of coffins there set aside and more in the background as we just mentioned, 12 people died in the pajor attack by the israeli regime on uh on tuesday and another 20 people. so well over 30 people in total have died, many have been injured, thousands upon thousands, some with

thing we're sure of, i should say is that it's usually civilian populated areas, now we hear that beirotalso allow the hospitals now to take in the injured uh that are the resulting from the israely shelling right now, we also know that even in light of its crisis in syria is also receiving many of the displaced people, we also know that there are the the hotels in the surrounding of several areas in for example saynab area and other areas that can receive the people and despite the fact that even syria is under attack from israeli throughout the past 12 years, we know the israelies have been striking syria as well, and despite that we see that there is lot of solidarity from the syrian people providing that shelter as much as they can, and we know of course from our relatives, from people who are close to us, we have sometimes in one house more than 50 people sometime reaching 90 people just living together, no matter what the circumstances, some... sleeping on the floor, just eating whatever they have in the house and just taking care of each other just until uh this issue passes and u

capital beirot has also been targeted. muhammad, give us your perspective on the recent israeli escalation of violence. so, as we are updated to... today israel has targeted southern beirot a residential area and it targeted the building which it claims that israel targeted a high level commander and israeli media are saying that ibrahim aqil senior commander which is head of operations department of hizbullah has been killed in the attack but hizballah resistance movement has not yet released any statement and these are speculations by israeli media, so israel has been conducting several operations in recent days, including the pajor blast and the wakitaki blast, which killed over 40 people and injured more than 300 people, so israel is not target. hizballah fighters, it targets lebanese people, and as we know right now, the israeli regime has killed at least five lebanese children in its latest attack, and we are still waiting to get more updates on what happened, and we are trying to get updates on who was targeted in t

we the israelies have reached the outskirts on syden uh and that is the the last city just before beirot, in 2006 they did not come anywhere near that area at seen, but now they are launching strikes on areas that they did not strike in 2006, and i mentioned even earlier, the city of tyre has also been under israeli shelling, it's also been shelled by the israelis in several areas um we have the the vicinity of navati, all of it also has been targeted, so basically how far they're really going far towards gaziye, towards the areas of bis, and those are the the coastal areas, even the main roads and highways that were taken by the the people this place from south lebanon going towards beirot, and so they are getting closer to that, of course it would be extremely catastrop. catastrophic if they do target even the cities of tyre and syden, they started it, they started already with with tyre, it's not clear how much they're going to target within that city, because lot of this place people stayed intire uh leaving all their towns and villages, so i do not think there is any single town or

well, there aren't a lot of details uh on the rescue efforts in the southern suburbs of beirot. we mentioned earlier that at least 10 rockets were fired from israeli fighter jets uh a a complex, a residential complex, several buildings, at least six buildings that were... completely turned to rubble uh, there are of course not a lot of expectations that they can find survivors, but there was a very a glimpse of hope after the rescue uh teams were able to lift two children um alive and that survived this attack uh and despite the the atrocity and the extent if you go to that area see how the everything has been turned into rubble uh it is extremely a miracle to see that there are two innocent children that came out of this uh we're hoping that there would be more survivors under the rubble and it's what is um of course remarkable, it is unprecedented, we can see up until now the smoke if you know if you probably cannot see it from this from now through the camera because of the dark we can still see the smoke over the area in the southern suburbs of beirot there was a huge uh mus

mariam saleh, press tv, beirot. the islamic resistance in iraq says it has carried out new operations against. israeli positions in the occupied palestinian territories. the umbrella group of the resistance factions said the first operation hit several israeli military targets in the jordan valley using drones. the group said most of the drones hit their targets as israely defense systems failed to intercept many of them. for the first time since the onset of the gaza war, sirens were sounded in the occupied city of bisan, signifying the intensity of the attack. the second operation targeted the observation base of israel's gollani brigade withdrowns. the new operations game, after the iraqi resistance, attacked israeli targets in the north of the occupied territories with the al-arkab missiles. the group has ramped up his anti-israely operations in support of palestinians and in response to the israely genocide in gaza. it is also targeted american facilities in iraq and syria, growing anger over the us support for

americans american lives are lost, i'll take you back to to 1983, the attacks which happened here in beirot, the marine barracks attacks where there were over 200 american soldiers who lost their lives, ronald reagan back then withdrew american troops, he did take a quite surprising decision, but uh the issue there is if american troops are killed or are targeted or if american bases come under fire, will that lead to the americans to curb the israelis and say enough is enough, now you are endangering our troops, or or will that push america to join israel much more than it is now and to become much more of an active participant in the war alongside israel against these other parties, so that works both ways, it's quite a difficult, tricky situation. okay, ali, thank you for joining us and for your input there, pal, always a pleasure uh, i risk the commentator joining us there out of the lebanese capital beirot now beirot has been and we have been following very closely developments here on press tv, the target of unrelenting israely bombardment uh for the last five or six days, but more so

thanks john, and ali risk is also joining us out of beirot, writer and political analyst, hello ali, pleasure to have you join us during this for this rolling coverage of israel's onslot on lebanon, we should uh mention moments ago in a statement released success uh successively on uh hezbollah's telegram channel, the uh lebanese resistance movement claimed its third, fourth and fifth attacks of the day against israeli positions, it said it targeted a group of israeli soldiers at the al-sada. military site with heavy artillery shells and fire rocket salvos at northern uh israeli occupied towns of near the mediterranean coast and roshpina near the occupied uh syrian golen heights uh the israeli army as yet to comment on these attacks but the uh hezbollah retaliatory attacks come in response to as you can see there the capital of lebanon beirot has been uh basically the the the target of the... regimes incessant overnight attacks dozens, some using multi thousand pound bombs called a bunker buster bombs in heavily populated civilian areas, leveling multiple structures there in the leba

call us, we are trying to provide for a place for them wherever they are saying, whether it is in beirot or in anywhere else, maybe they want to their relatives anywhere where they are, just they need to contact us in order to provide hospital for them, for example for those who have kidney failure and need constant assistance when it comes to that issue, for those who have cancer, for instance, those who were have radiology and radiotherapy, those who are following up those treatments, we have a... lot of programs, several hospitals that cooperate with the health ministry in order to provide that treatment, for example in the nabati hospital we're contacting them to know these who are the patients that need to come from that hospital and come to the area of where they are displaced to and where they have come to seek refuge, for example in we have zain hospital and we have the main radiotherapy hospital and medical center as well as in beirot we have several centers, it depends on the area and the region where they reach, but if they are also they have chemotherapy, some of them were pe

in beirot the number of killed uh so far stands at eight murdered uh 59 wounded so it seems that that retaliation uh is coming sooner than we expected. uh, it could be part of the retaliation because uh, i've been also looking at updates and it seems that hezbulah has launched a attack on an operation on the uh base that is responsible for carrying out base in the north, an israeli based military base in the north of occupied palestine that is responsible for carrying out assassinations, so not only is this a direct message, but it's could also be part of the retaliation, it doesn't have to be the full retaliation, in order to if we if we need to know, mean the clearer picture will be will become more apparent when hezbolah releases, publishes it statement on the matter, presumably i would guess due to the due to the severity of the attack sayid hasan would probably have. a speech sometime soon uh, mean as for what as for the retaliation itself uh, like i said, it it doesn't have to be just part a complete retaliation, like i said the you have the normal day-to-day operation that hezb

a funeral has been held in the lebanese capital beirot for hisballah commander ibrahim akil and fighter mahmoud hasin yasin hamad killed in the israeli strikes on friday. thousands gathered to pay their respects chanting slogans against israel and the united states. deputy secretary general naim qasim delivered a speech honoring the two men as honorable fighters in the path of resistance. he also condemned the israeli regime, calling its actions the highest level of barbaric criminality seen in the last 50 years. qassim highlighted that hisballah members were not the only target, civilians, children, paramedics, pharmacies were also affected. he emphasized that israel has not succeeded. in achieving any of its objectives by such crimes, it wanted through this operation, the aggression against the commanders of odun to achieve three objectives, the first objective to try to paralyze the resistance, second to try to divert the... its people, supporters against it, to turn its supporters against it, to stop, and third, to stop the support for ghazza and to return the settlers to the north,

, but also in at several other areas within beirot, and you also have in south lebanon and the bakka area, also several injuries in that as a result of these explosions and so this is definitely a cyber war, what it looks, this is what it looks like, we're talking about injuries, although we do not... have um confirmed news of murders, there is some unconfirmed reports that there was a child that was injured severely in the area of beqa and perhaps has become murdered, this is something i cannot verify yet, of course i need to wait until we have confirmation from the ministry of health uh to know if we do have a murder uh which is a child, we're talking about very young child perhaps four years old or five years old um "this is also in addition to the fact that it's true that we only have injuries, but these injuries are extremely severe uh, as you know, the pagers are either held in their pocket or on their waistline, and so that in itself is would cause massive injuries for uh the uh the person who is holding that pager. we also noticed from the videos whether the uh the cameras in

yes, we know that the iranian ambassador in beirot is okay, he has sustained slight injuries, nothing serious, we also know from the embassy that not a single member of the embassy or the security of the ambassador were targeted or were subject to any of these explosions, so that is something that we can confirm, the iranian ambassador once more, i repeat, it only sustained slight injuries and he his the members of his security are all okay and we know that there is a campaign of blood donations in all the areas in lebanon in order to make sure that they provide enough blood for those who are injured. the lebanese minister like i said has declared that the number of murders has risen to nine and that there are around 170 and 180 um injuries that are severe and more than 100 hospitals are taking part in receiving the injuries and the of course the you said you spoke about specific um personality uh the only name that we have so far is mahdi.

will ultimately have to have to fight for it and they will have to pay the price and... you saw in beirot today is just another extension of of course the the playbook we've seen in gaza, but go back further, the playbook in afghanistan, the playbook in libya, the playbook in syria, the playbook in iraq, have they all been, have they not all been the same, has they not been shock and or and bombing and bunker bombs as they've done today, let me just jump in here set moson with what you, let me just jump in here set moson with what you said saying that this play book basically have we not seen it before, i want to then look at the muslim world and the responsibility there, i mean, do you think that had these countries, islamic countries come together, they could have stopped this western hegemonic front for example in afghanistan or in iraq or in pakistan, in syria, but we kept seeing actually uh some countries, some muslim groups being involved and helping to defend. uh against the western hegemonic front, but the reality is that for example, we look at what happened to syria and how unfo

mohsen saleh, political commentator joining us live from beirot. thanks for sharing your thoughts and views with us about said hasan nasarlah, leader of the lebanese resistance movement, hazbullah, who was martered in an israeli strike on one of the buildings where he uh resided. we'll going to take a short break and we'll be back with more on this. east bayrut. at the age of 16, nasralah moved to the iraki holy city of nazaretf for religious education a seminary. he then continued to learn islamic teachings in lebanon and later in the iranian holy city of quom. but how did nasa enter politics? nasaralah joined the amel movement in 19. 1975 a time when lebanon was grappling with a civil war. 1982, israel launched an aggression against lebanon and consequently invaded the arab country and with the civil war. in that year, while this agreements grew over how to resist the israeli invasion, nasralah joined hazballah and newly form resistance movement. in 1985, hezbollah released his first manifesto. in the same year, nasralah became the head of hizbol

of kola with guarded missile, at least three people were killed in the attack, earlier striking beirot seven subeb of dahiya killed at least three people and injured several others. that's an area where an israeli airstrike led to the martydom. of nasrulah on friday. israeli artillery shelling has also targeted the towns of kefar hammam and majyun in the country south. the lebanese health ministry says nearly 110 people were killed in the regime strikes across lebanon on sunday. over 360 others were injured. some 900 people have been killed in lebanon in a week of intensified israeli attacks against the country. earlier we political activist and commentator hina rabai to share her thoughts on the israeli assassination of hizballah leader sad hasan nasarlah is what she had to say a a popular level the materidom is is in fact very devastating to the people yet yet it did not make them become desperate to the contrary actually the people became uh the popular base of specifically uh became more resilient, more determined to win this war, more angry and less scared to give sacrifices and a

know that lot of the people who have been injured were ordinary civilians and now the hospitals in beirot are overwhelmed with the number of injuries. um, how do you analyze the situation? well, the scenes are horrific, condolences to those past. and our wishes for recovery for those who are injured, many have lost hands and have debilitating injuries, it's truly horrific action, act of terrorism a large scale, and that's on the only way we can describe it is an act of terrorism from a state that from its founding is known for state terrorism, from its massacres, 33 massacre. just in four months in 1948, just before it was founded as a regime, as a state, to the present massacres in gaza, massacre after massacre, even today there was another massacre in gaza of civilians, so it's a terrorist regime, and we are not very surprised by terrorism coming from this regime. "my thoughts are that it uh, it is not going to help israel, if anything it will make it much, much harder for israel to survive in this world. so mr. were you, what was your initial reaction to this news? is this something th

maria, correspondent there in beirot, staying in beirot, political analyst muhammad obaid. mohammed, you heard what mariam was talking about, and and talking about the possibility of american troops being sent to lebanon. what i'm seeing online is saying that us to send more troops to, it says to the middle east, um, and it says as violence. rises between israel and hezballah, your thoughts about that and and what that could mean? well, nobody would doubt the the backing and the the full support provided by the united states to this occupation entity. we've seen this earlier, we've seen it in the political arenas, we've seen it with the supplying of all these arms that... the occupation needed uh, and it needs no proof. i even read a report, i do not trust, i don't, this was the first time i hear about this source, but one needs to take this into account that american, american pilots are taking part in the raids against labanon, and this should not surprise anyone, because if you are back... someone with all these arms, with all these political activities, economically, fi

path of struggle until victory, and just as now we heard the shelling on the southern suburbs of beirot grow stronger, perhaps thinking that through this they have broken the resistance, or perhaps thinking that they have reached victory, i think we are still just in the very beginning of what they... they could they can imagine to be defeat, defeat much worse than what they saw in 2006 or in 2000 or in the 1980s or throughout there the war of attrition, i think that what they're going to be seeing is much grander and larger than anything in the world. i think as a people of the resistance and the people of the world, human beings and not the monster barbaric, blood thirsty z. communists, the human beings of the world need to rise up against the barbaric, genocidal, blood, blood thirsty criminals, not only the zionists and the israelis, it is the united states of america that we understand more and more a daily basis that it is responsible for the killing of our people, it has blood its hands and every single leader in the world and every single person in the world who is aware and... u

beirot or exactly, yeah, um, regarding that that issue, of course the... "there should be resistance in this case, there should be someone to stand against the israeli side. as i said, this is going to continue for these next few days. israel thinks that the momentum is its side, it thinks that now the b, you know, uh, it has hazbullah backfooted, etc., so it's going to continue in this approach. now, hazballah could very well surprise the israelis, but i think that the israelis are focusing basically on some a temporary, big, neverthel tactical achievements, but what quite significant tactical achievements, without looking at the broader strategic picture. uh, i was, it was interesting to read today a report by the jerusalem post, which said that uh, american defense secretary lloyd austin practically snapped at his really counterpart, gallant, when gallent informed him just minutes before that israel was carrying out the assassination of sad. that is an interesting point, it shows you how the israelis are pushing the americans into this corner, and the a

done the past week, the walkie talkies, the the pager thing and the bombardment of south subs in beirot and killing... one the elite group of the leaders of hizbullah. now the whole goal, the first goal, this is the ultimate goal the they want. yesterday, and if you were watching sheikh naim kasim, deputy general secretary of hisbullah, has mentioned very strong statement to them, as an analyst, i'm saying to you, he has delivered a strong message that now is the is the momentum of getting back. huge response towards you as israeli he the prime minister netanyahu and the government and the israelius army, they call themselves defense forces, what what a defensive scale they know, they've always acted aggressively, they always killed, they always massacred, they always pretended that they are human beings and that they have pure democracy, what kind of democratic state of israel like now? they're doing towards the whole world, the international community, if they're listening to me, what is the united nations doing so far? nothing, but short statements, you know, we need to, we urge both

okay, thanks for that, mariam salar correspondent beirot. now uh, from beirot, we have another guest, so we have mohammed marandi university lecturer and political analysts. good to see you professor marandi guchavi with us here. so let's begin uh from the very beginning, the reason... why this regime did such a thing against the libanese people and also the assassination or moderdom of sasan nasarlah. well, first of all, i'd like to thank... you and your colleagues, but your colleagues here in beirot in particular, this is very dangerous neighborhood, and it is close to where the strikes are taking place in beirot, and people like uh mariam saleh and the others, they are all playing heroic role in uh reporting day and night what's going on, because and you and they all want to expose the reality to the world of the crimes that the israeli regime is carrying out. i think the israeli regime is miscalculating, it has miscalculated. murdering saysanlah will not weaken the resistance. these are not empty words. there is a culture of resistance that has grown, and there are tens of thousan

with us, said mosan again, uh, our screens are showing us these images of more bombings inside of beirot inside of daha, your thoughts on this, what is the regime after at this point in time, is it basically just imploding and uh... does not know what to do or your assessment of what we're seeing happen now? i think the the failures, the collective failures that the anglo-zionist empire has has been subjected to, the latest of which is the palestinian resistance successful defense of gaza. of course they've not left much of gaza in terms of buildings and they bomb the hell out of the poor civilians and women and children, but the crucial thing is that they've not been able to disman. the tunnels and the underground military means by which palestinian resistance survives, they've not been able to destroy the alqasan brigades, they've not been able to finish off the palestinian islamic jihad, they've not been able to dismantle the pflp, so none of the factions, the the fighting factions of the palestinians were were taken out, that was an expressed objective of benjamin, that means it's a
