See any more action by israel against iran. and so of course, there is profound fear that that is exactly what we are seeing right now. we dont know it, but theres a good chance that israel is carrying out some kind of operation. and then of course we have to get a sense of what that strike looked like, whether it was in deed in that narrow scope, because if it was, that will tell us that israel is hoping that that will be the end of it. but of course as i and others have said, in these past few...

Here it seems that american officials have confirmed that something happened. there seems to be good reporting that something has happened. what i would call those is a strategic spoiling attack. i purred guest after guest talk about the full barrage and assault that israel has been under from a ron, from all the proxies, hezbollah, houthi, hamas which is all true. when youre in that kind of defensive mode all you are doing is catching jobs. one of the only things you can do our... strategically...

Said that israel will make its own decisions when responding to irans unprecedented weekend airstrikes bikes most of which were intercepted. iran launched that attack and retaliation for a suspected israeli strike on its embassy compound in syria earlier this month. i want to bring in sienna and chief national security correspondent alex marquardt. alex, there is so much to be learned here. you have some brand new reporting what can you tell us well laura, ive heard just moments ago from us vish...

At this point there are no special instructions for the israeli people. israeli military officials are starting to wake up this morning to give you a sense of just how calm things were here in israel overnight, a few sources said they slept through this incident, indicating that the israelis knew this was going to be limited in scope and they did not anticipate an immediate response by iran p. or there are questions today about how the israelis will see this incident it certainly gives the irani...

As we learned last saturday night, that gives people an opportunity to go take them out but were not going to know until we see the nature of the whole or the strike or whatever it is that will end up seeing there. we dont even have any official confirmation, certainly from the israelis are others that they theyve done a strike. but american officials seem to have been prepared for this. and seem to be prepared for it to be looking at non nuclear sites. so well just have to know when the sun com...

Defenses in operation in numerous parts of iran. but at this stage, it does not seem that iran itself is at a state of siege or an attack. so we will see the extent of what is happening, what has happened over the last few hours. obviously, there is deep concern in this country, all across the region, that there could be an iranian response, perhaps imminently. irans foreign minister said ifs there was any attack, that iran would strike back immediately. irans president had said the same thing. ...

The proximity of this attack to that facility mean to iran tonight? >> well, theres two major facilities. one is actually an isfahan, which is a uranium conversion facility. thats where iran has a essential process of converting yellowcake to uranium fluoride oxide. and its very important because that is then enriched they also the highly enriched stockpiles are actually contained. it is this is farhan fabrication plants, so around is highly enriched material which is used to be converted into w...

Hamas efforts elsewhere in the region and then conducting this strike into iran. i mean, this is quite amazing, not surprising entirely the israelis have this incredibly capable military force so if theyre not sending a message, theyre trying to achieve a result. we dont know what that result looks like. that needs to be determined before you determine what the next steps are going to be. >> all right. but major general spider marks standby again for us, were going to go back to alex marquardt w...

Out inside of iran. all we know is iranian state media is saying that there were a number of explosions near issa hahn. of course, our viewers may be familiar with that city because there is a critical nuclear facility there. but at this point, we dont have any indications that that is, that there was any kind of specific a strike or attack on the nuclear facility, it just nu happens to be in the area around there. of course we are asking questions. but as of now we have no indication that this ...

That drew concern from the israelis. something that they expressed in background briefings over the past week. remember the israelis are also patient the iranians have described themselves as operating through stood -- strategic patient spirit they have going after the program for years. back in 2020 they killed a covert operation... he was a man who was conducting research to get around closer to a nuclear weapon. so israel may have conducted this attack overnight to send a message to iran that...
