a little girl and two members of hezbolah and and two members of hezbolah and a very large number ofion at the moment, a scientific investigation as well as a security investigation in to the causes of those explosions. as i said, this is a situation that completely unprecedented, even in the highest moments of tension between hezbolah and israel, as we know they have been involved in a cross—border hostilities for over 11 months now. this is linked to what is happening in gaza. but what happened this afternoon is something of a completely different scale, it takes things to a completely different level. at the moment, it lebanon is in a state of health emergency. at the moment, all the authorities are trying to contain this situation in terms of number of casualties and injured, of having to toll of how many people were injured and how we can provide them with treatment. but the real questions are still to be asked, what happened, what kind of massive security breach we witnessed this afternoon. and also what is next, is hezbolah going to retaliate? and is this just mere message or

join us, press tv news headlines, the hezbolah leader says the deadly wireless device explosions by israel amounts to declaration of war on lebanon. vowing horse and shocking response to the regime. hamas hails hezbolah leader's speech in support of gaza saying it forted israel's plans to weaken palestinian resistance through terror attacks in lebanon. the un agency for palestinian refugees warns about severe food shortage in gaza saying most of its people have one meal every other day. hello and welcome to press tv world news, i'm your host ali raza iktiyarzade and these are the top stories for this hour. leader of hezballah resistance movement say hasan nasrullah has asserted that israel's plan to return the displaced settlers to the northern occupied territories will fail. "there were three war aims which were declared which were related to gazza, now there's a fourth goal to return the occupied settlers of northern occupied palestine to the border region with south lebanon, that is the goal. now can you achieve this goal? you, natanyahu, yesterday, he was, he seemed a bit happy, okay?"

lebanese people, because of all the uh protection and sacrifice they are getting from hezbollah, hezbolah is right now protecting the geographical borders of the country, and all nation is kind of in ore of the measure of this sacrifice. um, can you tell me a little bit about the general sense within? people of lebanon. are you still with us? i'm really sorry, the internet. sorry, yes, the internet is just going and just now, right now we had major attack, an area very close to the place where we are, i think it is in the suburbs, around the 10 or 15 bombs were were fired and the sound was horrible. so could you please just repeat, if you can hear me, could you please repeat the question? yes of course, of course i'm not going to take uh that much of your time, just tell me about you, because hez right now is protecting the entire nation, um, can you tell me a little bit about the sense of appreciation within the lebanese people in general, regarding all the sacrifices that that is being made by hazballah, yes, because throughout the past experiences and we've had this... earlier even in

that was hezbolah, hezbollah came in on the ground long before the the russians came in with their air force and then it was the collaboration of the syrinamy and hesbullah and the russians which pushed back that entire. uh highly trained, highly weaponized, with all the modern technology and and you dangerous uh uh daish force that was trying to destroy uh syria, so hezbolah are now a conventional army in in every respect, so they can expect uh hesbollah's abilities in terms of cover and concealment to be very strong, um they're capable of direct fire, very accurate direct fire, they can basically uh disappear under these tunnels and these underground networks. because they know the terrain of lebanon far better than the israelis would, so if these israeli soldiers happen to come in into any regions, they're going to be walking into a trap, but actually what the israelis have tried to do is sping a trap on hezbollah and in fact the axis of resistance by threatening uh hezbol in the way they have, by basically and what did they do, they they they sabotaged lot of the the hisbolla com n

as you can see on the bottom. from your screens breaking news coming in saying that hezbolah says itith the breaking news on the your screens. now lebanese media reported that israely warplanes launched a large-scale air attack, the israely military has also claimed that the bombings came after the identification of hesbollah's preparations to fire into the occupied territory. prime minister benjamin netanyahu has held emergency cabinet meeting with military officials to discuss the situation. the regime has also announced that gatherings of settlers from the northern city of hefer up to the lebanese border will be restricted in anticipation of retaliation for israeli attacks. tens of thousands of israelis have been evacuated from homes in the north of the occupied territories. germany has uh germany has reacted to the situation by stressing that there is an urgent need to diffuse the tensions and the un has also voiced concern about the heighten escalation calling for maximum restraint from all sides. our correspondent mari am sol reports that the israeli regime has been intensively

hezbolah said the attack. are in retaliation for the regime's bombardments of this of southern lebanon that killed dozens of people, according to lebanon's health ministry, three people were killed in the israeli strikes on sunday. meanwhile, the palestinian resistance movement hamas has hailed lebanon's resistance fighters for what he called their resilience and bravery in facing the zinist war machine. a femeral has been held in the lebanese capital bayrut for. allah commander ibrahim akil and fighter muhammad yasin hamad killed in an israeli air strike on friday. thousands gathered to pay their respects chanting slogans against israel and the united states. deputy secretary general naim khasim delivered a speech honoring the two men as honorable fighters in the path of resistance and algods. he also condemned the israely regime calling his actions the highest level of barbaric criminality seen in the last 50 years. qasim highlighted that hezbulah members were not the only targets, civilians, children, paramedics and pharmacies were also affected. he emphasized that israel has not su

that would have stopped cross border uh skirmishes between the uh lebanese resistance movement, hezbolahh occupied ports of haifa and uma rush-rush, it would have stopped iraqi resistance from launching missiles and drones against uh israely targets and we would see uh at least to some degree a restoration of calm in the region, israel would have got its captives back, it would have uh probably had it settlers the 60,00 plus settlers in northern occupied territories go back to their dwellings where they... squatted throughout the years um, but needless to say we are here where we're at now uh looking at escalation against the wishes of uh israel's closest allies supposedly uh the un uh lot of world leaders you saw them walk out on benjamin nettahu at the un, no one's would any longer if they did at all buying a self-defense uh uh uh so-called algorithm for what he's been doing to the region for the last year now your initial thoughts of course uh you now we have been together speaking about this situation, these escalations, this violence, this genocide for almost year now, and of course

him camp while artillery shells targeted ramia sight. number of israeli settlements came under hezbolah's rocket attacks as well, while the occupied city of saffed was hit with a barrage of rockets. the movement said the attacks were in response to the brutal israeli violations against lebanese towns, villages and civilians. it added that the retaliatory operations were also carried out in support of palestinians in gaza and their resistance. the israely regime continues with this air raiser against lebanon days after the assassination of hezbollah secretary general said hasan nashrollah. in the latest attack and israeli uh an is right targeted residential building in beirot's central neighborhood 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 minist

in tel aviv and the greater tel aviv to go to the shelters and make sure that they are safe from hezbolahrockets and seemingly if we do know that this rocket reached its target then therefore all the systems the so-called defense systems the arm zone platform we've seen that fail throughout the ' the whole year of confrontations with law, they were not able to stop many of the rockets, the not able to stop the uh or even the smaller size drones, and now we see that the arrow system has not been successful in stopping that rocket from reaching its target, which is the main headquarters of the mosad. okay, so that was our correspondent, mariam solish joining us live from beirot, mariam, please do... stay with us, for those of you who are joining us right now, uh, the latest development regarding the clashes between hazbollah and lebanon, escalating to new level. hasbolah for the first time since these clashes began has targeted the city of tel aviv and a statement uh by hazbullah, the these attacks have been carried out using kader one ballistic missiles. and the attack happened on wednesda

they are children or not around, that is terrorism, that is the definition of terrorism, but if is hezbolah were to do the same kind of cyber terrorism or the the kind of clandestine uh black ops which is... do and have been doing a frequent basis, then the americans would use that as excuse, nato, america, their international community would be mobilized, those anglo-zionist puppets uh to say, yes, it's time to launch a war against iran or a war against hezbollah all together, so israel was just trying to goad america and the others to come in, the americans probably want to come in, but also uh don't want taste of the action on the ground that hezbula is capable of giving them. uh which is going to be very, very nasky experience, so overall i would say that there is this kind of cat and mouse game going on, at the bottom line is that israel, if it was to make the blunder of going into heizbollah, they would be facing an extraordinarily uh powerful resistance which of the like of which they've never felt before. okay, sakina, considering what we just heard from uh our other guest, mr. mohs

through the roof, but this is not just, this is not just true about lebanon, across the region, hezbolah today is like ansaron extraordinarily popular, and those who've been claiming to... support the palestinian people, but have done nothing, uh, they've been exposed. you're absolutely right, uh, professor. now, since we've been mentioning the name hezballah so often, and you elaborating on the role that hazballah is playing, let's uh, clarify that for our viewers now, when we talk about hezbullah, it is not a separate entity, hezballah is part of the political spectrum, these are the people of lebanon, they're not separate, separate entity, if you could... please explain more about that and uh of course israeli media, western mainstream media also uh try to uh portray these attacks on hezbollah commanders as something that has weakened hesbollah throughout the decades, professor, we have seen that every time there has been a morter in hazbolah it has become stronger, not weaker. well, i can give one example from iran uh... when saddam hussein invaded iran, iran was completely unprepare

colonies, the settlers in the north of the occupied to put their own people under the rockets of hezbolah, so they will have excuse to come back and b again lebanon, maybe this is the... situation, they throw back their own population, they threat the risk of life of their own people, and then they have the excuse to bombard again and again and again lebanon without having troops on the ground, because they will lose again as they lost their less for wars. i think that this is the trap that netanyahu is trying to achieve, at least a minimum of legitimate discussion, legitimate statement, which is... nowadays the legitimacy of the resistance even the western societies, i'm talking from brazil, we are 60 million arab descendants here and we still are under the zionist hegemony in the mainstream media, but 70% of the public opinion of brazil is for is for palestine for libanon for example, so they are losing the legitimacy even inside western societies, they need desperately a brief affair on their illegitimate occupation. and the legitimate aggression against libanon now days, the seas fire

and and warning them uh and and actually then the people are believing it and they have seen uh hezbolah's capabilities let's talk about the the way the pendulum has swung the..." changing of the equation that again, though lebanon has als has paid a price, but the israely regime is playing also major price in this, well you see the israely regime has tried for a long time through propaganda to dissuade lebanese people from supporting hizballah, they have tried uh with the with the with the western education with the with introducing hizbullah as a terror group in their books. and i mean it this is this is people inside lebanon right, they have been doing all kinds of you know basically using all kinds of methods to bankrupt lebanese people to make sure that they cannot have a functioning government and then trying to put that all on hisballah and saying it's because of hisballah that you're suffering and um and at times they actually manage to basically a dissuased people but you what you see with hizbullah is all of the support it has gained is because of its support, is because of prote

well. guarden missile targeted the madgecide 2 resulting in casualties amongst israeli forces. hezbolah's artillery fire. also hit the jalal alam site, the resistance movement statement says that all of the attacks were carried out in support of the people of gaza and the brave resistance at the regime's genocidal war. the lebanese resistance group hazballah has held a funeral ceremony for their late commander, murder ibrahim aqil and his companions were killed in an israeli air strike on friday. hazballah's deputy secretary general sheikh. him stress that the resistance sent the israelies a down payment with the latest strike on the remote david military base in ha, but warn them to keep their eyes on the battlefield, you will see the results, threats will not stop us and we do not fear even the most dangerous scenarios, you will die of fear, your economy will collapse and you will not achieve your goals was later that... of marters cemetery in the southern suburbs, known as haj abdulqadir was assassinated along with comrades during an israeli aggression that targeted a residential build

the question here is can the israels deal with a full blown war with lebanon, with hezbolah, which will potentially mean a full-blown war with the resistance front at this point, if the answer is no, then does that mean they want to get the us involved? do not believe, do not think that they can handle a full blown war with the resistance movement in lebanon, because uh as the resistance movement itself has already said it has used on the minimum of uh, if it has the minimum of what it can actually do, the minimum of its capabilities, what we've seen right now is the minimum of what hizbullah can do, so and with this minimum that they are carrying out we we are seeing how um... "the operations are being carried out non-stop against the occupied territories, against military bases and this will keep on going, so i do not believe that uh there is really regime i can actually win a war against lebanon, a full-blown war against the regional uh the resistance front uh, that's for sure, and i must say that um, speaking of like military bases being targeted by hizbillah, and we've seen like th

israel one of the few military defeats it has faced in the battlefield so they are afraid of the hezbolah militia and i believe that they um ended up assassinating hassan nazralla because they're think that if they assassinate the leader it will make hezbollah weaker, but hezballah is not structured that way as just that one leader can end up decapitating the entire organization. um, so i think this is going to be counter to their goals of weakening hezbollah. second of all, what they've also done is um, lebanon has had lot of um opposition and lot of... descent and internal conflicts because they have been under sanctions from the us, they have been struggling with economic crisis and inflation, and we have seen that many of these factions who were quarling about year ago have got come together in wake of these israeli strikes, so i think that has also run protive to their original goal of like weakening lebanon and trying to isolate any potential allies that the palestinian resistance had. in other countries, like you said, many have said this, many of our guests have said that assassin

are pandora's box. um, the the the certainly command and control, certainly uh elements of what uh hezbolah believed to be secure communications um are going to have to be reworked and therefore this is certainly ' in in combination with with the the padron wakitaki uh attack going to uh set hezballah back in terms of what they had planned for uh what what they knew was coming which was... was the day when when israel would openly attack lebanon once again, so uh with that said though, the the the use of of such terrorist uh tactics and and approach such as the the pager waki attack, the the use of kinetic strikes such as as the one that killed said hasan nasaralah uh, you you only get to do these things one time if you will uh in each conflict, in other words the res'... will react to what has worked and what has been successful and what has not been successful, the resistance will certainly grow as a result of this act by the zionists and so as uh hezbolah continues the the effort to simultaneously combat the zinus and to reconfigure in light of what was certainly uh uh security breach or

analysts and speculations that the israelis had a plan to launch attacks and attempts to weaken hezbolah and all that talk from in the us saying they do not want to deescalate the situation, they do not want things to grow uh or to uh escalate into a wider regional war, they seem to be somewhat inaccurate or perhaps not honest, because we hear also from the us officials, some experts saying that we are with hezbolah's with excuse me, we are with israel's attempts to weaken hizbullah or disarm hizballah or to move hizballah towards the... tai river and so i think we have that double standards once more uh on the part of the us which is definitely seemingly giving that green light to israel, but up until now israel does not have international recognition or legitimacy uh to do so and with all that talk said we know that there is opposition from france and from several other european countries the international community community as well so far. has been against the israelis any steps or aggressions towards lebanon uh so still despite all that and on the 7th of october they had some sort o

hezbolah is very important political party in lebanon to many of us and in many ways is pivotal in keeping other politicians shall we say honest or at least a little bit more honest than uh they're otherwise inclined to be uh lebanon has its own problems has frequently been targeted not only by israel but by france and the united states in the wider atlantic world and even by saudi arabia, so lebanon has its own problems and hazbullah, the political party plays key role navigating all of those domestic problems in addition to defending the nation and assisting uh... allies like the palestinian people while they're being decimated in what any measure has to be in a legal considered an illegal and genocidal war. so mr. grosson, the fact that hasballah was capable of attacking tel aviv directly in of itself is very significant. you did mention that hezbulah does only attack military targets, which is again another plus for hazbolah. as compared to israel, which does not spare civilians in its attacks, but more significant than these attacks on tel aviv and the military might of hezbollah, the

framework and hezbolah works as a popular resistance as we said uh they do not have official may be offices, but they move around freely usually, and hasballah's secretary general, of course there's a lot of questions on how the israelis were able to acquire that intelligence and reach that site and and and go ahead for. that targeting, but even if they did have the intelligence uh, there is foolish mindset or a mindset that is not very well calculated on thinking about the repercussions of that action, so i think that the israelis now, although they are tired, although they are fatigue, they might believe that with the terror attacks um of the pagers and the walkie talkies, putting aside making more than 5,00 perhaps potential fighters of the resistance uh incapable or... of service or incapable of fighting or being at the battlefield and then direct assassination against 16 top military commanders and now the assassination today, i think that they perhaps believe that this would weaken the resistance and that their ground invasion or possible ground invasion would be a walk in the

. going over all the details regarding the escalation of tensions between the israeli regime and hezbolah resistance movement in uh south lebanon uh in the along the border of uh southern lebanon now we know that um escalation of air strikes have taken place uh and uh the tensions are at an all-time high and let's forget the israeli cyber terror attacks that took place on tuesday and wednesday uh across uh lebanon as well with the explosion of pagers and walkie takies uh which resulted in uh the uh the death and uh injuring of many innocent civilians across lebanon of course we covered that matter and it's in party right here on press tv and uh the condemnations and reactions were pouring in as well with regards to this israeli terror attack uh still uh we are yet to uh to see any um condemnation coming from western uh countries namely the united states and other israeli allies with regards to this terror attack. all right, joining us now in our studio in tehran, we have mohammed khatibius from our west asia desk to offer some more insight on the ongoing escalating tensions between uh the

palestinian livelihood and heavy trade of fire continues along lebanon's southern border with israel and hezbolah engaging almost daily in cross-border attacks. this time an israeli air strike has left several lebanies killed and injured in cowford joe's town south of lebanon. hazballah. also conducted fresh retaliatory operations hitting israeli military targets. earlier we were joined by our correspondent in beirot myram sali for more details. it seems that the israelis have made it habit to target bikes. we saw yesterday how they tar 12 year old and 17-year-old on bayada. they also increas we have a direct attack on civilian. who are riding their motorbikes in that area as well uh we also have other people who are injured uh we're still waiting of course for the exact numbers from the libanese health ministry uh but this of course will definitely entil a retaliation from hizballah as a retaliated for the other civilians uh but concerning the israeli attacks and aggressions we have a uh ameried of attacks of course they with fighter jets they targeted itarun yatar as well as shihin and with uav

and other military heartware this is what the situation is like we also have retaliator attacks by hezbolahnorthern becca valley in levon, this is what the situation is like, so i have a couple of guests now, as we speak, i have nahammed, correspondent by ramala, also i have uh ken stone, executive committee member of the hamilton coalition to stop the war, his in hamilton, ontario, canada, i'll go to him to, so let's continue with, as as we speak, the israel atrocities are ongoing, like i explained just part of it, it's not only uh against lebanon, it's gaza, and let's see if the same thing is also happening in the... bank and ramala and where you are? yes, the same thing is happening over here in the west bank and in the cities of the west bank where the iof has raided many cities since the hours of the early morning today, the the iof has raided in and navless, we are talking about major palestinian cities being raided almost every day and one piece of news have just... and this may take us for another level of atrocities by the israeli regime that jibron sair has announced that he will

and the're you know the're uh causing disruption to the the you know the the ship shipping route. hezbolah is um is helping you the north of israel against the north of israel. olympic atmosphere still resonates here, and despite the emotional and heartfelt cries for action to be taken to stop what is happening in gaza, just how such events as these will influence the french government remains far from clear. in paris, the press tv, this is peter hummy, at least eight migrants have drowned after their boat overturned, while they were trying to reach the uk, via the english channel. french officials said the vessel capsized shortly after leaving. the french coast, since the turn of the year, over 22, migrants have taken the perilous journey by unseaawthy boats and reached england, such attempts have also taken 37 lives so far this year, the deadliest incident took place less than two weeks ago and killed a dozen refugees. spain has rejected allegations leveled by the venezuelan government that madrid was involved in a us lot plot to destabilize the latin american country. source to the span

do you think that they actually thought that they could paralyze hezbolah um by those terrorist acts, the latest terrorist acts committed against them? you see, my own take on that, it's a gamble they took and it's fire back big time on them, it's panicked the western markets whose electronic markets, even the electric cars market and all of that. people now worried who's having ipads or computers or cell phones or pages or even electric cars, what from the future any rogue state like the zinus entity can direct a massive blow at their economy, now they even i was talking about yesterday in a conference in here, people in here in the west uh their their companies are worried now about the people on the global south won't be ' interested that much in trusting the the chain of supply from the west with the electronics and this is will have implication in many other things in the future will strengthen the the chinese market the south asia market maybe the russians that's in its own but let's say one of these things which we notice i notice myself or my own take with the pager they i thi

israel will break it, israel will violate it in multiple ways and claim that they are responding to hezbolah attacks or something. uh, i, i personally see almost no point in making any deal with israel at this point, uh, you know, this is, this is not a normal country, this is a fanatical..." as norman finkelstein said, lunatic state, it is lunatic state, it's run by fanatics who are determined to expand uh their borders into syria, lebanon, and probably beyond that, and who are in the midst of committing a genocide. why, you know, in a in a normal world, you you don't get people together and go, okay, let's let's negotiate with this. genocidal lunatic state and see if they will grant us some concessions, and and western media continues by the way, to distort the picture of... the the entire relationship between uh the occupied palestinians and the colonial uh genocidal zionists hundreds of pro-palestine demonstrators have taken to the streets in the us city of new york to protest israel's deadly acts of aggression against gaza and lebanon. they called for immediate cease fire and an end to

the zinus regime's policies and thorted its plans. tensions are escalating between israel and the hezbolahresistance movement amid fears of a full-scale war between the two sides following the regime's recent terrorist operations in lebanon. the movement says it has carried out new operations. in support of palestinians in gaza and in response to the regime's strikes on southern lebanon. the movement said it targeted israel's almalkia site with artillery shells making a direct hit. hezbollah's katusha rockets struck the command headquarters of the hermon brigade a10 at the maala golani baracks as well as shamera and metot bases. the command headquarters of israel's western brigades in the yaara barracks were also targeted with rockets. the new operation came. after israel claims to have hit dozens of hezballah's rocket launchers, the regime also carried out extensive air strikes on villages in southern lebanon. we were earlier joined by our beirot correspondent mariam saleh for more details on the latest clashes between heizballah and israel in southern lebanon. let's take a listen. well,

since early october last year, hezbolah has tried to engage israeli forces in northern occupied palestineisraeli aggressions, of course these israeli aggressions also went towards deir and z in addition to alman and of course the edges always of the the farms, hamam always targeted by artillery fire from the occupied shiba farms and hizballah of course has made sure that they uh retaliated uh, but what we have the retaliation that we have on manut, mordekai, which is settlement kapots that was targeted for the very first time since the beginning of the confrontations is to make sure that once civilians are targeted or civilian areas are targeted, then hizbullah launches those attacks and although the israelies have boasted that they have targeted hezballah positions um "we have not seen the fall of hazballah martters and so it seems that they have perhaps false intelligence on where they are targeting um and it was mostly residential areas and houses that were targeted by the israeli shelling now we we learn from hazballah yesterday that they launched tens of rockets into not mordekai as

hezbolah of course has been using pagers for decades now and order to keep as part of their security of course and the secure telecommunications, but it seems that the israelis have been able to breach it. it's not clear how they have done this, whether it was through the drones or through the technologies of course that they have the satellite technology. we know that the israelies are extremely superior when it comes. to that type um of technology, but of course we are waiting for details on this since we what we have is very little, all we know is that there were several explosions and these explosions were on individuals holding uh this pager we know up until now we know that there are wounded several people were wounded as a result of the explosion of their pager uh either in their pockets or with them some of them they were even in their houses with their children and their families so uh we do not have any news of any marters as as of yet uh but we know that there was many wounded the sounds of ambulances are heard in almost every single street in the southern suburbs of beiro

uh something they've miscalculated, and before we let you go, whether it's hamas, um, scott, or hezbolah, it seems like the the regime's uh military issues that always takes out on civilian populations and civilian uh metropolitan areas and civilian infrastructure, and somehow there's a lot of defining silence from the west, namely it's taking all of its uh issues, its military issues out. on the palestinians and the lebaneses and here's two groups that it's you know at odds with, but it's it's taking its uh tol on the civilian populations and for some reason it's getting away with it and it's really just besides i mean i'm beside myself that it can get away with it no one else on this planet could well this is precisely why they attack rt and sputnick and press tv and try and throw them off facebook and instagram this is why they forbid uh your network from appearing on regular cable television channels in europe, in the united states, because the truth that you tell would turn and sway and persuade the hearts and minds of all americans and all decent people in europe to see the israeli

terrorism against thousands of hezbollah members and ordinary citizens in lebanon last week, and now hezbolah has answered with the blast hitting many barracks and other areas, including inside of the city of hyfa. well, stay with us as we take a look at the latest situation between the resistance movement hizbullah and the zionist regime. i'd like to welcome my guests to the program. out of riz political analysts and out of belfast, author commentator and west asia expert, saib shath. welcome both of you to the... program i'd like to start off in beirot, i mean your thoughts, radan, when the hezbulah deputy chief says of the war or the uh retaliation has enter new phase, what do you think this means? well, i, i rather call it a return of ahead or operation, because now we we know that we all know and we understand that we are in a state of war. either we admit that or not, since the 8th of october in order to support the gaza resistance, palestinian resistance in gaza, so now the lebanese resistance are involved since the 8th of october and it's legitimate for the lebanese to support their a

of explosions of the pageers held by hezbollah fighters. 10-year-old girl and a son of member of hezbolah's block in lebanon's parliament are among those killed. thousands have also been injured, many of them critically. iran's ambassador to the country, moshaba amani is among those injured following the terrorist attack. isbala said its specialized agencies have launched large scale security and scientific probe to determine the causes of the simultaneous blasts. it added after examine. all the facts and current data and available information movement to hold israel fully responsible for this criminal aggression, which also targeted civilians. it's criminal enemy will certainly receive a just punishment for the sinful aggression from where it expects or does not expect it coming. reactions of pouring and following deadly cyber attack in lebanon which targeted members of hezbollah, iran's foreign ministry. condemn the incident saying attack as part of combined operation conducted by zyanis thugs, ministry spokesman naser kenani said attack is against all humanitarian principles and internat

civilians and all the talk of the israelis saying that they have been able to dismantle and target hezbolah arsenal up until now was definitely dishonest since we are seeing the hezbollah rockets being fired, the israelis are saying hezballah has for the first time targeted launched long-range missiles were waiting of course to... if there's confirmation from hazballah on that issue, specifically we do not know, but we're expecting to see that hazbullah can easily turn the tables or will be working towards turning the tables on the israeli objectives or israeli plan for trying to return the israeli settlers and the main question here is how can a war on lebanon return the israeli settlers and how can they realize that objective? it seems definitely far-fetched. "and as long as there is one single rocket being fired from lebanon, israel are saying they're going to continue with this war, but hazbullah says it has lot in store still for the israeli, so what type of strategy hazballah might be working on, but it's very important to mention that in hazballah statements they're using new term, i

was you know these these uh these explosis went off all over the place um they know very well that hezbolah will be forced. to retaliate and that is in my opinion where the regional regional war begins, it begins with begins with ' israel the aggression, your un ambassador says a country reserves the right under international law to take required measures to respond to israel's attack against its ambassador in lebanon. amin made the remarks in a letter to the un chief as well as presidents of both the security council and general assembly. he said israel's terror operations in lebanon constitute flagrant violation of the basic principles and rules of international. law including the un charter and the 1961 vienna convention. iran's envoy added continue terrorist actions and violations of international law by israel pose serious threat to international peace and security and slamming western countries, especially the us over unwavering support for israel. iravani said they bear international responsibility for all the regimes wrongful acts. he also asked the un chief and the security council

it when when we look at what happened after the uh even the attack on southern suburbs of bayrut, hezbolah seemed to increase the amount of operations, the ratio of operations has increased, the firepower has increased, the number of rockets that they're using has also increased, so it we cannot say that it has decreased, but we can say that there are some days when you witness certain palm and it seems the resistance uh tends to pave the way when it when you see for example advancement in the talks or talks about a certain humanit in pause that would allow palestinian people uh to take a breather, to vaccinate their children, to be able to move into safe sites and hazbillah perhaps backs down somewhat uh not pushing uh too much towards the israeli military, but if we look at for example what is happening, we have continuous um israeli attacks all across the border uh and even further away from the border, you have for example the fighter jets, you have artillery fire, you have drones in different areas, and now it seems the israelies are focusing more on fires uh there through flare bombs

, the last operation that they have launched was in the occupied chabah farms, we also know that hezbolah uh attempted to stop one of the uh the israeli uavs in the over the skies of the bakar and that is the first time that hazbullah uses a land to air missile in order to stop the the the drones from coming to attack those areas and it seemed that that heron was specifically its way to launch a strike in one of the areas in the beqa it was forced to leave the skies of the as targeting with the land missile, with the london air missile, we also have direct attacks on almarish as well as rahib and mis where hazballah targeted devices and destroyed those devices as they mentioned in their post, and so we can see that although we had somewhat of a decrease in the in the the confrontations, we notice how once the israelies go further in their escalation, hazbillah also tends to respond in very... heavy terms and heavier um rockets and heavier also the use of drones, bigger use of drones and in areas that are further away when it comes to the geography, basically creating some sort of proporti

hezbolah fighters meanwhile have retaliated by hitting an israeli check. point wounding number of iof troops our beirot correspondent mariam saleh has the details the uh sporadic attacks especially from the israeli side continue across the southern border and even in areas that are far away just less than 10 minutes ago we heard sounds of explosions here in south lebanon and we learned that it was a attack from fighter jets uh on the town of bet where the israelis targeted house which we learned is was evacuated and therefore there are no injuries so far as we know from the on this attack specifically in b leaf or there was a house in the outsworts, but we know that there was another attack earlier and an area which is between and we learned that hasbullah launched a direct attack against a an israeli army patrol. that was moving in the vicinity of the karroval checkpoint and the kfaryoval is considered a lebanese occupied town known as. of course it is this is significant for two reasons: first of all we know that there are severe injuries among the israeli soldiers. the other reason

the attacks. according to israeli media, the regime has imposed a ban on publishing details of hezbolah's strikes and earlier we were joined by our correspondent mariam sali for more details on hezballah's retaliatory strikes and to the israeli occupied territories? well, we learned that there is new round of rockets being launched, but it seems that this time they are being launched towards targets in the galili and not beyond the gulili, and of course, just to give a recap, hazballah has released three different statements, the first two statements are very similar, there was a first salvo of rockets, they said faddy one, faddy two rockets that were... launched towards the remote david military base in haifa and it lies somewhat somewhere near east of hyfa uh and as a result it seems of the interception or the attempts of the iron dome system and the israeli defenses to intercept's rockets you have those some of those rockets and the shrak rockets reaching areas like nazaret and kat byalik where we know there were lot of damages and at least three were injured now there were also sports

iranian hezbolah missiles, russian missiles, until the u.s. has its assets in that area sunk to the bottom, it won't learn its lesson, that it is not going to be allowed to continue its endless war agenda against uh three forts of the rest of the world, and the united states should be filed as a co-conspirator of war crimes in the south african brief and the other legal briefs that have been filed against netanyahu, the united states should be made a co-con. spiriter because every weapon and every bullet that the united states and every dollar they give to netanyahu has been uh to kill palestinians and the legal warfare needs to resume against the united states uh and the politicians who have been funding this and backing this just like netanyahu so i think legal action internationally needs to be filed and of course uh the blue helmets of the international peacekeepers even though i don't put lot of faith in them it is an overture. this a symbolic, political, diplomatic move to appeal to the united nations that the united states is a war criminal, and that only the united nations should h
