Not quite. they dont win unless they can continue to harass and go after u.s. and international shipping. thats their standard. they set that as their goal. were going to take that away from them, i think, if they attempt to do something now. we do have the means to do that largely, even know "new york times" and others have said most of the targets we didnt hit, its true. but we do have extremely good intelligence coverage of that area. we have a lot of experience with it. all we have to do is ...

The conflict started, the head of hezbollah made a kind of remarkable statement where he seemed to say i wish you well to hamas. we did not know about this in advance. but were not joining in. so there was a question, a pragmatism. do you think hezbollah could get more drawn in? because it seems like things are changing. >> youre talking about the leader of hezbollah. he has made very clear in multiple speeches that he does not really want all out war with israel. he has made it very clear there...

Im sumi somaskanda. we begin tonight with reaction to the american and british—led air strikes on houthi targets in yemen. the iran—backed houthi movement says the uk and us will pay a heavy price for targeted attacks on them in yemen overnight. us officials say �*just under 30 sites�* were targeted, including in the capital city sanaa. they included what the us called command and control centres, munitions depots, launching systems, production facilities and air defence radar systems. h...

Health issues, can keep up with these kinds of demands? my sense is that you understand how difficult it would be, as defense secretary. do you think that is something that will pose a challenge for him as he continues to deal with his health issues? >> well, hes reportedly very much on the mend. im pretty certain i know where it is that hes actually ensconced in walter reed, as ive had a number of procedures in there myself. and you can set up all kinds of communications and everything else to ...

Back and attack, and thats what we saw them do in a limited way today. and i think thats what theyre going to try and follow through with going forward. so i wouldnt be surprised if this follow-up -- these follow-up strikes today by the united states not the end of it certainly from the houthi perspective and everything theyve been saying is they are going to come back and continue the fight. >> nic robertson, thanks. i want to check in with oren again. do we know how effective the u.s. thinks t...

Central command. the command thats responsible for this area, the greater middle east. i obviously told those who were above me that i was going in for surgery and so forth. we had all the communication set up at a time when i was under, if you will, my deputy was in charge. depending on how well that recovery goes, i dont see any issue that keeps him from, again, doing his responsibilities just as if he were on the road where you set up all these kinds of communication measures and secure the i...

The houthis capabilities to continue what theyve been doing in the red sea? >> yeah, good morning, victor. the basic answer so that is we dont have a complete picture of that, so we dont know whether or not we have an effective strike. we dont know whether there was any damage to the complete infrastructure the radars, the service to air missile sites that the houthis have and whether we got after their launch facilities for their drones or any of the intended command and control elements for th...
