00:00
We are going live at this moment to the Middle East, to Lebanon specifically, where the Israeli
00:11
military forces are starting an incursion, a military incursion into the southern Lebanon.
00:21
This information comes just hours after the Israeli commanders conducted a small group
00:27
raids inside southern Lebanon on Monday and there were indications that Israel may send
00:34
more forces into the area.
00:36
Israel has also conducted brief intelligence gathering raids inside southern Lebanon this
00:42
week as it prepares for a limited ground offensive according to recent statements given by the
00:51
military forces of Israel.
00:53
Lebanon is on the table, an official said earlier today.
01:03
The Lebanese army moved back from some checkpoints at the border with Israel amid intense artillery
01:11
shelling by Israeli forces and also after reports of an Israeli incursion.
01:19
A Lebanese army official who asked not to be identified because he was not authorized
01:26
to speak publicly told local news outlets that it was a redeployment from forward positions
01:34
vulnerable to an Israeli incursion.
01:38
We are witnessing at this moment a fully escalated war in the Middle East following the deadly
01:46
incursion and the deadly occupation of Palestinian lands of Gaza, also almost a year after the
01:56
military siege against the Palestinian people carried out by the Israeli military forces.
02:04
At this moment, the Lebanese army, as we were mentioning before, are moving back from some
02:11
checkpoints at the border with Israel amid an intense artillery shelling by Israeli forces
02:19
and also by reports of an Israeli incursion.
02:25
A Lebanese army official assured that it has performed a redeployment of the forces.
02:35
Said today, the highest authorities of the resistance movements of Lebanon and Hezbollah
02:42
assured that they were ready to perform a face-to-face and a hand-to-hand battle and
02:51
resistance against the military proposals or intentions of the Israeli military forces
02:59
to carry out a military incursion into the territory.
03:03
The move follows days of intensifying fighting between Israel and the Iran-backed Lebanese
03:11
military group Hezbollah, which began trading attacks back and forth across the Israeli-Lebanon
03:18
border after the October 7th military incursion of Israel into the Gaza Strip that has led
03:32
to a devastating death toll of over 40,000 Palestinian people dead during the genocide
03:39
perpetrated by Israel in the Gaza Strip and also a war that is being spreading through
03:47
the territory involving also the West Bank and also Yemen and now Lebanon.
03:58
It is recalled that one of the main complicit in this military siege has been the United
04:06
States, which is the main provider of armed supplies to Israel's defense ministry.
04:19
At this moment, Israeli strikes across Lebanon have killed more than 1,000 people in less
04:25
than two weeks and also forced many people to flee their homes, according to Lebanon's
04:31
health ministry.
04:33
The strikes have targeted Hezbollah and its weapons, and also killing Leader Hassan Nasrallah
04:42
and several top officials.
04:44
But also they have killed many civilians, including women and children, entire families
04:54
whose pictures are going, have been viral through social networks every day.
05:01
There are pictures of family members of those who have been killed due to the Israeli imperialist
05:12
proportions of this war that has as the main objective to spread and to gain territories
05:23
throughout the Middle East.
05:26
According to Israel, it will keep targeting Hezbollah until Israeli residents can safely
05:32
return to their homes.
05:33
That's what he said.
05:35
Let's recall that over the past week, the world followed closely the 79th session of
05:45
the United Nations General Assembly in which the Prime Minister of Israel assured, we are
05:57
talking about Benjamin Netanyahu, who assured that the siege was not going to stop, that
06:05
they were going to keep spreading terror throughout the region, and this escalation of the war
06:15
is of grave concern for all the nations, not just the United Nations and all the member
06:20
states, but especially the peoples of the Middle East who are witnessing with horror
06:27
how this crime has no stop and how the community, the international community, has very little
06:37
influence in making Benjamin Netanyahu to stop its war of terror through the Middle
06:44
East.
06:45
As we were mentioning earlier, Israeli military forces have started a military incursion into
06:52
the southern Lebanon following days of clashes and also after a very particular way of targeting
07:08
civilians which was with the explosion of thousands of mobile devices that at the time
07:18
of the explosion they had no differences between killing a military member of Hezbollah or
07:27
either a child or an elderly person.
07:33
According to U.S. officials, Israel is not prepared for a major ground offensive inside
07:40
Lebanon, however, we are witnessing how Israel has just started a military incursion into
07:49
the southern Lebanon following a year of ground operations inside Gaza.
07:59
It is recalled that the leader of the Lebanon-based militant group Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah,
08:06
was killed in an Israeli strike on his underground headquarters in Beirut on Friday.
08:15
Both Israel and Hezbollah confirmed this information.
08:18
On September 27th was perpetrated a military incursion which left six buildings around
08:32
a block turned into ashes which means that not just the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah,
08:41
was killed in this operation but also there were multiple civilian casualties.
09:08
We are seeing live images of the Middle East exactly in Lebanon where Israel has just started
09:14
a military incursion into southern Lebanon.
09:17
