Israel has been targeting hezbollah sites on the outskirts of beirut, but this is thought to have been the first time an attack has been carried out within the City Limits in the past year. The lebanese Prime Minister says the continuing Air Strikes may have forced as many asi million people from their homes. This weekend has seen a major escalation, with more than 50 killed in lebanon, hezbollah rockets fired into northern israel, and almost 2,000 kilometres away in yemen, one of the countrys biggest ports and power stations, controlled by iranian backed houthis, targeted by israel. The Israeli Military said the strikes are in response to recent Missile Attacks from the group. Translation we have no i interest in expanding the war. We have no interest in looking for additionalfronts. But if somebody attacks israel, as the houthis have recently done with missiles, and throughout the war with Cruise Missiles and drones, anyone who carries out such an attack, we will settle the account with them and we know how to do it. Israel isnt holding back, releasing videos of its Air Force taking off and showcasing its vast arsenal of missiles. The houthis, backed by iran and fiercely opposed to israel, condemned the strikes as brutal aggression. With israels strikes continuing in lebanon and military operations in gaza still under way, the calls for De Escalation of the situation from the International Community Grow louder. Can an all out War In the Middle East be avoided . Has to be. We really have to avoid it. Were not there yet but were working like hell with the french and many others.

Hezbollah is a proscribed Terror Organisation by The Uk and some other western governments. Heres a short clip of what Naim Quassem has said. If israel thinks that it open Hand And Determination to commit atrocities and aggression, if they think this will achieve their goals, it is delusional. Yes, there are pains and sacrifices. But we make our future victory. Some of us die, some of us are monitored and the remaining ones continue on the path of victory, which is forthcoming soon. We have all made sacrifices. Starting with the pagers and walkie talkies, and then the martyrdom of our leader. These will have undermined major armies and organisation. But we continue with the help of god.

Irans foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser kanaani held a News Conference condemning the killing of hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Mr kanaani stated that Hassan Nasrallah was martyred, but his cause is still alive. Translation our Foreign Minister has had a meetingj and has talked on the phone with his lebanese counterpart. They have been discussing the issues and they have discussed what they should do both by iran and by the lebanese government at the same time so we can follow up on our political and legal demands. Naturally the iranian side would not leave any of the actions by the Zionist Regime unanswered. We will definitely respond to that, and the Zionist Regime would have to pay for what they have done to the iranian citizens, to the palestinian people, swiftly. This will not go unpunished, and the Islamic Republic will do what it takes on its own side. Lets speak to our middle East Correspondent Lina sinjab. There are a lot of developments. As we were staying, quite a lot to get through. First of all, we see the live images of Beirut And Smoke rising, tell us what you are hearing and seeing on the ground there. Are hearing and seeing on the ground there. You know, today is relatively ground there. You know, today is relatively quiet ground there. You know, today is relatively quiet because is relatively quiet because people are still waking up from yet another attack that happened overnight and this time, in a kola area, not very farfrom where i live time, in a kola area, not very far from where i live and time, in a kola area, not very farfrom where i live and not farfrom where i live and not far from where i farfrom where i live and not farfrom where i live and not farfrom where i live now. Its a residential area close to bus station, it is not a hezbollah area. They use it to move around lebanon. It is predominantly a civilian area. As we hear, the target was one of the hamas members, we are still unable to confirm who was living in the building. People are still waking up from the shock and worried about who is going to be next, which building, which area and which neighbourhood. Apparently, israel is after specific personnel and targets that could be anywhere, around any corner of beirut. nd could be anywhere, around any corner of beirut. Corner of beirut. And israel has been corner of beirut. And israel has been staying corner of beirut. And israel has been staying that corner of beirut. And israel has been staying that its i has been staying that its targeting are key hezbollah leaders and commanders is downgrading and degrading i should say hezbollahs abilities. But what we heard there from the Deputy Leader, Deputy Chief of hezbollah seems to say that they believe they still have enough i had to fight. Still have enough i had to fiuht... fight. This is the tone and the content of fight. This is the tone and the content of the fight. This is the tone and the content of the message fight. This is the tone and the content of the message that L Content of the message that came from the Deputy Leader Naim Quassem. It was expected. He wanted to send a message of defiance to reassure the community, to send a message even to the israelis that they are still there, the organisation and the structure of the organisation will not collapse by the absence of a top leader of several commanders. He basically sent the message to say that nasrallah, the late leader had organised this in a way that there shouldnt be any void if somebody is absent and the void will be immediately replaced by other ranks of leaders that are ready to take over in Case Anyone is assassinated. He also stressed that what israel after, straying the Military Capacity of President Zelensky and hezbollah, they said they are well equipped and ready especially in the case of a Ground Invasion. Theyve reminded people what happened in 2006, they use the Ground Invasion and he said that we managed to defeat them and we will defeat them again. This is the message coming from the leadership of hezbollah, we expect this to be defiant and reassuring of how far this is true on the ground and how much they are able to quickly recap and reorganise themselves, how much weapons and ammunitions they still have, these are questions that will unfold in coming days and weeks. What actions they will take and how they are going to organise themselves. We they are going to organise themselves. They are going to organise themselves. ~... themselves. We are coming onto this in our themselves. We are coming onto this in our next themselves. We are coming onto this in our next item, themselves. We are coming onto this in our next item, i themselves. We are coming onto this in our next item, i wanted i this in our next item, i wanted to ask you for your thoughts on this as well. We are now hearing from the un that hundred thousand people have fled lebanon for syria since israeli strikes began. What are you seeing and hearing in terms of numbers of people who are now false to flee their homes as this conflict escalates . The numbers differ, as this conflict escalates . The numbers differ, to as this conflict escalates . Tue numbers differ, to be as this conflict escalates . Tte numbers differ, to be honest. But the scale of people that were on the move to reach safety is massive. The lebanese Prime Minister earlier this week and over the weekend mentioned a figure of around i million. If you look at that, it seems there are almost 500 residents in this area, but the israel has also attacked southern areas of leben en. Inaudible we have lost the live feed. We did have it detailed conversation with her in beirut there. As we were discussing just then, the united nations says 1000 100,000 just then, the united nations says 1000 100,000 people fled lebanon for syria since israeli strikes began. The lebanese prime Minister Najib Mikati has warned that more than1 million people could be forced to leave their homes. Many have already fled the south of the country and headed north to cities like beirut. Anna foster has been to martyrs square in beirut to speak to some of the displaced. . Even days after started fleeing the Southern Suburbs of beirut, and the attack that killed Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of hezbollah, many are on the streets because they say they dont feel safe going back there because the Air Strikes and attacks are continuing. As you can see, it is not an ideal place for people to be, many fled quickly and grab what they could. They do not have fresh clothes, they have not bought toys for their children, it is hot here during the day so they are struggling to find shade and shelter. Every now and then, people arrive and hand out food, but as you can see, it is enormously difficult situation for lots of people. They just dont feel yet safe enough to go back their homes. This man and his wife fled here with their children on Friday Nightjust after the huge night just after the huge Explosion Nightjust after the huge explosion that killed Hassan Nasrallah.

Anna foster there in beirut. 0ur middle East Correspondent Yolande Knell is injerusalem despite all of these international calls for restraint, we heard comments from president biden overnight where he was saying action must be taken to avert an all out war, that he was planning to speak to the israeli Prime Minister, benjamin netanyahu. The americans were pushing last week for a three Week Ceasefire with hezbollah to try to come up with a political solution. 0n the ground here you hear from Israeli Military leaders that they believe more Military Effort is required at this point. The chief of staff for the Israel Defense forces, herzi halevi, said he believes they must keep hitting hard. Israeli media quoting different defence officials assessing that the Hezbollah Fire Power has now been severely diminished by the Air Strikes that have gone on in recent days and that seems to be why we have not seen large barrages of rockets being fired at israel even since Hassan Nasrallah, the chief of hezbollah, was confirmed to have been killed in the Air Strike at The End of last week. The warnings are coming from all around this region, Saudi Arabia saying it has grave concerns about what is going on in lebanon. All eyes on the iranians too and what they might do in response to their axis of resistance, as they call it, being attacked on so many different fronts, because its Notjust Hezbollah in lebanon, we also had israel carry out attacks on the houthis in response to Missile Strikes from yemen. And other activity, indications of possible strikes in syria that israel has not commented on. At the same time the war goes on in the Gaza Strip and it remains extremely tense in the occupied West Bank as well. Important to mention that with what israel sees as big military successes in the past week or so, that has given a boost to the Prime Minister when it comes to opinion polls. One last night was suggesting that he would get the biggest number of seats for his party if there were to be a general election called right now. Lets turn to gaza, where hamas run Health Ministry says at least 111,615 have been killed. The World Health Organisation is calling for medical evacuation corridors in the territory to allow patients to leave after it estimates over 22,000 people now have life changing injuries since the war started. The un agency says 5,000 palestinians have been evacuated for Specialist Treatment abroad since last 0ctober but only 219 people have made it out since the Rafah Border Crossing in egypt was closed in may. Caroline hawley has this report. Zena is safe with food to eat and a place to play. Too young to really understand anything else. She is 17, from the opposite end of the Gaza Strip. Brought together by their injuries. She survived an Air Strike in gaza city, spending 16 hours under the rubble before she was rescued. Translation it was hard to | breathe because of the weight on my chest and body. All the time, i was wondering about what had happened to my parents and siblings. Herfather, sharif, a tailor died. The bodies of her brothers still lie under the building. Translation i lost the people most precious to my heart. Zana and her family had fled twice and when the supposedly safe area of al mawasi, when an Air Strike hit nearby. Terrified, she went to hold onto her mother, who was carrying a pot of boiling soup. Translation her Face And Skin were melting in front of me. I could only pour water on her. I had no idea what to do. I carried her and went out barefoot into the street. This was zana before the injury, in the tent where they were staying. Her home no longer exist. Her father had to stay in gaza when they were evacuated and her grandmother died in may of cancer, untreated. Her mother worries desperately about her future, but hides her fears, so she sees nothing but a mothers boundless love. Translation all | want is for her to be treated so she gets better psychologically and can rid herself of this nightmare. Ijust want her to play, run and be happy. The next few months for zana will be measured in medical appointments
