I am here in person to make something crystal clear, americas support fertilizer israel is ironclad. Sandra this breaking moments ago, the Israeli Defense forces are telling fox Israeli Forces have entered the gaza strip to conduct localized operational raids. This news coming as israel prepares for the next stage of war in its mission to rescue the hostages held by hamas. And as the response in gaza intensifies, u. S. Allies could be facing a war on multiple fronts and thats breaking as we begin a brand new hour. Welcome, im sandra smith in new york and, bret, great to have you. Best of my recollections im bret baier and John Rob Robertss is on assignment. 1 million gazaens are warned to move south as israel begins a Ground Operation. Sixth other parts of israel could be in danger. Sandra irans Foreign Minister is warning violence could spread to other parts of the middle east if attacks on gaza do not come to an end. Bret Fox Team Coverage on the globe over the breaking news of the war in the middle east. Sandra Trey Yingst O live on the ground with coverage at this hour hawaii are you seeing and hearing, trey . Reporter yeah, according to the Israeli Military, Infantry Troops and tanks entered the gaza strip today to do two things. First, assignment and gather more information on the israeli hostages that are currently being held by hamas inside gaza. We also understand they were operating inside gaza to try and kill any sort of militants along the border. Another piece of information that is pointing to the fact that a Ground Invasion may be eminent. Weve seen the thousands of props here and the preparations are underway despite the exchange of fire and rockets coming off the gaza strip and the continued israeli air strikes and i want to take our tension up to Northern Israel and were also learning at this hour according to the Israeli Military, theyre striking hezbollah positions in Southern Lebanon. Thats the Lebanese Militant Group and israelis are worried well get involved at a large level and earlier today, hezbollah indicated they were firing with small arms on israeli positions. We saw some artillery going into lebanon and Aneroiders Cameraman was killed in Southern Lebanon and its appearing to be part of the response. Israeli Drone Strikes against different hezbollah positions across the area. Certainly an escalation in the tension along the border and something to keep an eye on. Inside gaza today, we understand that many civilians are heeding those warnings by the Israelis Last Night giving them 24 hours to get out of northern part of the gaza strip and new video shows Gazaens Heading South and preparing for the possibility of that Ground Operation and simply trying to get out of the way. Today were doing reporting in the city of Bernards HealthcareChef Vascularized what took place on saturday morning. Take a listen. Go into cars and follow me to save your life. We could not stay there. People helped each other and put people into cars. Hang on them, went on top f roofs. We drove for about 20 minutes to the fields on a dirt road. A group of soldiers are afraid to go into war but theyre ready and see it in their eyes. The Israeli Forces are ready for the days and weeks to come. Sandra, bret. Bret trey, its bret and youre doing a fantastic job getting all the information out and covering the depravity and civilian attacks and terrorists and when i go around, people are asking me, how are you doing, how is the crew doing . Do you get any sleep . Whats that like . Reporter we dont get a lot of sleep. We have a job to do and were in the middle of history. We have a responsibility to tell this story and make sure people understand what happened here. The massacre against innocent civilians and also make sure people understand whats happening inside gaza. Its part of the reason you heard our reporterring from Inside Gaza Today and a hamas official. We want to make sure people have a full understanding of what is taking place. The largest ground war in the middle east in years and this is just the beginning and you talked earlier and this could be chapter one of a very long and bloody book and were here to report on the story and make sure people are informed. Sandra we thank you for that, trey. Youre bringing the stories like no one else can right now. In this moment moment, we obviously know evacuation happening from north to south in the gaza strip and we want to talk more about that with mark in just a moment here. Looking at northern border of israel with lebanon and the past couple of days and coming over the border and forces israel to send thousands of troops really and military equipment to the border there this is one of the Rocket Launch Points out of lebanon and where a lot has been coming and we are just told in the last few minutes, trey, and ill get you to add to this that Israeli Shellings struck a lebanese administerny Observation Post at the border here without further detail on that. This is sources telling roaders that this happened. This is coming to us within just the last hour and after israel warned of a suspected Army Infiltration it said it was responding to with artillery fire. They, israel is ruling out any incursion occurred near a residence near the border instructed to whole up at home and lock doors and windows. They were told they could again go outdoors. Obviously theres some conflicting reports as we try to manage what exactly is happening on the ground but, trey, can you give us some more color exactly what is happening at the northern Israeli Border at this time seeing fire exchanged in. Reporter e yeah, we spoke with an israeli official today and its not just hezbollah but the Lebanese Army operating in this area and it was an exchange of israeli fire and lebanese and israeli army and incident involving the Lebanese Militant Group hezbollah that involved small arms fire at an israeli outpost and then the israelis responded and responding again this hour with Drone Strikes in Southern Lebanon. The biggest concern for israel is hezbollah and i want to get into a bit of what happened yesterday. Its very important information. The israeli strikes were reported on the airports of aleppo and damascus in syria and this is an indication that iran is still trying to smuggle weapons into lebanon. In the past, fox news reported exclusively speaking with western intelligence sources about how iran gets precisionguided missiles to lebanon and all pointed at israel and smuggled through the Airport Ntsb Western part of syria. So the fact that since it began, theyre trying to smuggle into lebanon and a larger conflict. On that document, we blurred for the viewers and saw with my own eyes. The israelis had pinpointed every single Missile Launch position in Southern Lebanon. Theres thousands of missiles in lebanon and all Pointed South Toward Israel and the israelis understand this. Its a major concern and right now theres israeli Artillery Units and tanks and Infantry Troops on the northern border with lebanon and preparing for the possibility this turns into a full scale regional war. But if missiles start coming in from lebanon at a wide scale, israel does not have the Missile Defense systems to shoot them all down. The israelis have indicated officials have talked to local media over the past several months, warning of this worse case scenario, multifront conflict if it heats up in the south and north and thats exactly where this is headed, and its of concern. If it happens, the israelis ups therell be mass casualty situations in the northern part of their country. The Lebanese Militant Group hezbollah will fire on tel aviv and on the major possiblelation centers and if they do that, israels Missile Defense system, the iron dome will be overwhelmed certainly. Sandra trey, going back to that, we know they have already clashed with israel across the border multiple times and the hezbollah deputy chief Kansas City Chiefs semiis saying the group will not be swayed for calls to stay on the sidelines of the conflict between israel and hamas saying it is fully ready to contribute to the fighting. That in just the last couple of hours from hezbollahs leader. Trey, see you again shortly. Thank you. Bret. Then this happened. Listen. That is a strike happening very close to that roiters camera. We now understand that a Roiters Cameraman was killed and the Agency Issued a statement which said, we are deeply saddened to learn that our videographer was killed and he was part of a screw in Southern Lebanon providing a live signal. Were urgently seeking more information working with authorities in the region and supporting sams family and colleagues. Rid oroiters journalists are seg medical care. We have a photo of the videographer that was killed and it shows the dangers of hezbollah getting involved here. We had it in 2006 after the kidnapping of the israeli soldier in gaza. Then hezbollah got involved about three weeks later, july 12 and firing the rockets on the border into israel and border skirmish and three Israeli Soldiers killed and israel went in hard with air strikes hezbollah is far better armed and organized than hamas in gaza and hezbollah has targetter precision munitions and present a far greater threat even than hamas does to israel. Its a very tense situation and no one wants violence breaking out on the lebanon israel border. Bret yeah, jonathan, it is truly sad to hear this ands and an example how dangerous it is to cover a war zone overall and we here at Fox Have Felt that directly with Benjamin Hall and his crew, the loss of Camera Man Pierre and a translator and fixer. Theres no more word about other skirmishes along that border and this Incident Tracks with what sandra and trey were talking about over the last couple hours. Yeah, it seems to Bean Exchange of fire often a dozen changes and i want to caution our viewers about that and we havent heard of rockets coming in any great numbers from hezbollah into Northern Israel as yet. But that would be the fear. Pushing fist indicated rockets into israel and rockets that can hit any city, anywhere in israel. They have the precision to do that and have the range to do that. Hezbollah will do what it wants to and by that it means what iran wants it to do. Bret. Sandra jonathan, our hearts and thoughts and everything, our prayers are with the family of the videographer who we now have confirmed reports was killed. As we look at that intense fighting and seems to be stepping up and acknowledging the rhetoric stepping up as we mentioned earlier by hezbollah and concentrating on the border and this will is where a lot of fighting were watching over the next couple hours and days in 2006 from israel went to war from zeldon blah, i was there in Southern Lebanon then and the israelis gave israeli a warning then that if you come below a certain line they gave us a distinct line in Southern Lebanon and youll be if youre in any kind of vehicle anywhere in that area, you will be considered a potential terrorist and therefore you will be a potential target. We dont believe they put outrebounded any such warnings to journalists today, but those are the dangers of war. Israel has to go after its terrorists enemies both in Southern Lebanon if Inlead Hezbollah Attacks and in gaza. In those terrorist attackers and put themselves among civilian populations and see in Instastas Whomever is feel it needs to, this may have been a simple mistake but in 2006, journalists were warned to stay out of a certain area of Southern Lebanon. If we see this conflict widen there again be there in 2006, sandra. Sandra mr. Secretary, thank you for joining us. If you could first comment on this and a tragic, tragic consequence of all of this. That videographer that was killed. Sobering reporting from your folks over there and really writing the first pages of history as your reporter said, and tragic that the reuters crew was killed and injured but, you know, it shows you the bravery on all sides of the Israeli Military and western reporters trying to cover this conflict and terrorism being inflicted by the israeli people, by hamas and hopely not by hezbollah and thats one thing were watching out for. A Million People told by the idf to evacuate the Northern Gaza Strip down to the south and civilians told to get out and idf not confirming this Ground Invasion is happening but its sending a strong signal it could be co coming in the coming hourr days, mr. Secretary. The idf giving a warning to the gather zahn civilians to move south and the unknowns is the outcome, the end state that israel hopes to achieve. We dont think retaking of gaza because they gave that up in 2005 and itll be simply to knock out the hamas leadership and make sure they have no longer any war fighting potential and to destroy all the underground tunnels. Secondly complicated by two things and status of hostages being held in gaza from 130150 and will hamas be true to its pledge to start executing hostages as horrible as that may be and second unknown as your reporters mention is will hezbollah open up a front to the north . I would think. Israel does not want a second front in the north while it takes on gaza. Thats why the United States move to Carrier Strike group up there and reason to deservice connected them and iran, syria and others and capitols are sending similar messages and we dont know if this is a strategic decision for hezbollah to stand back or operational move, some patience. Maybe see the idf get fully ensconced in gaza before they unleash whatever they have planned. This is going to play out and its just the beginning. The relug tans of administration and talking about irans direct involvement. Bret put aside the funding and back and forth about what irans doing with the money and whether Biden Administration easing up sanctions, when its clear can be proven for iran to sell oil and giving them a lot of money to use. Leered held hourslong Online Meeting with a group of strategists from all iranbacked maliciouses from all the iranbacked militias and told them to get ready for a Ground Invasion that would mark a new erasement this is according to to two participants from iran and syria. Add that to reporting of the Wall Street Journal and Washington Post of a direct impact in planning this particular attack. Im wondering why you think theres this reluctance by the Biden Administration to talk about that and confirm that intelligence has any scope of that. What you think is behind that. Brett, it has puzzling there was a report from Wall Street Journal on sunday evening, last sunday evening saying that irgs plotted and Teheran Green Light it had and conflicting and confirmed the Government Administration they cant ascertain that yet. Maybe they will. Who knows. I know this much, and i said this by the way, the morning we all woke up last saturday to these atrocious attacks by the terrorists into israel and we would later learn about the atrocities committed. I said then that all roads lead back to iran. The funding, training, support, all of it, all of it goes back to iran. At the end of the day, you know, i hope israels successful in decimating hamas, but thats not going to solve the problem. You have to go back to the source and the source is iran. Theyve been causing this blind behavior of terrorism throughout the region and certainly against israel for four plus decades now. Thats where we need to focus on eventually. Sandra mr. Secretary, thank you for joining us on all that as we continue to break the details of this ongoing conflict. We now have a picture of the journalist just confirmed killed by our colleagues at reuters of asam. Their videographer pictured here has been killed in a statement it reads he was part of a roiters crew in Southern Lebanon providing a live signal. Were urgently seeking more information working with authorities in the region and supporting his family and colleagues. There are other journalists that received injures and seeking medical tear and our thoughts are with the families at this terrible time and we join in with that, bret, with that. Just terrible news. Bret yeah, listen, these folks who go into a war zone, they know this job is really tough. They know it is really dangerous. I asked trey about how hes doing and the crew is doing, not only to keep themselves safe but just to keep themselves healthy. It is really tough. But you heard his answer, its about getting the story out, getting the depravity that theyre seeing on the ground. Each one of these journalists is doing that including this Photo Journalist from roiters and add this to the horrific death toll thats come from this and were at more than 2600 across the board. And only going up as this gaza battle is getting ready to begin in earnest. Sandra bret, thoughts and prayers with Issam Abdallah with his family and crew and we pray for his family and thank impeachment for his journalist and life gone way too soon. Why are you here today . Free palestine. I stand with the palestine people. I end the mass genocide in the gaza strip. Talking about genocide of the kids being beheaded. Thats false. Thats actually false. When you see the kids beheaded and women raped, how do you feel about that . I dont know where to start from that. Israel is notorious for creating propaganda that sides their one sided massacre against palestinians. That was already proven that didnt really happen. It happened. It was not verified. Women did not get raped in no. Ive not seen any proof of that. If it did happen, it i havent seen it. They get attacked for no reason . The children got attacked for no reason . The kids that were beheaded . Yeah, apparently. They were jewish kids. Wait, jewish kids . The u. S. Military money that goes there, 4 billion a year should stop going to israel to support their war crimes. Sandra well, that was our own Lawrence Jones speaking with pro Palestinian Protesters at a demonstration at Hunter College here in new york city. Its one of dozens of campuses that have seen these sorts of protests and hamas attacked israel last weekend. Many of the demonstrations turning into violent scuffles with pro israel counter protesters. Lets bring in guy benson now, Fox News Radio host and Political Editor at townhall. Com. Its hard to believe its happening in new york city and places all over the country right now. Im floored . I just dont even know how to respond to that monotache that we just played montage we played. The ignorance and hatred and deliberate lack of notion knowledge and throughout history, sometimes people wonder how could Something Like the holocaust happen and people deny the holocaust happen today given all the everyday. Here is something that was live streamed by the perpetrators who proudly paraded around their victims, they are thrilled that they raped and murdered and burnt and decapitated jews. And in realtime in a digital age you have young people in this country blinded by this moral idiocy denying that it even happened days later. Thats terrifying. Bret you know, berry wise was on earlier, i was at americas news room in for bill, and had a long kind of summary of what this likely is going to become. If you look at whats happening now and what you just heard and common on College Campuses some of Property Tests and some of the sound bytes youre going to hear and what were about ready to see israel going into gaza and the public, theres going to be ugly scenes that come out of that battle as they try to annihilate hamas. What are we getting ready for . Bernards healthcare ray makes a great point berry makes a great point and she was make ago number of very similar points including one that she and i agreed on, it is somewhat clarifying to see a lot of jar began on the hard left on campus like decolonization and seeing that in realtime playing out and being defined by these people as what we saw in israel. Decolonization, free palestine, that equals the slaughter of jews. I think thats a useful thing for civilized people to recognize and be aware of moving forward. Bret, the premise of your question, its a really important one. This is what were seeing, the backlash in favor basically effectively of hamas that were seeing over the last couple of days, thats in the immediate aftermath of the butchering of 1300 innocent civilians in israel. Once the idf responds and starts the very difficult Process Of Urban Warfare and rooting out hamas and hamas is forcing some citizens to stay in gaza as Human Shields to then trot out their dead as propaganda against israel, thats all probably whats going to come next, horrifyingly, and then the voices that were already hearing now, theyll get even louder, blaming israel and its entirely predictable and the shameable play book every time, and it is essential for people in our industry to tell the truth about why this happened and who started this and why the israelis are doing what theyre doing and how the israelis try to minimize civilian casualties as opposed to hamas delighting in the civilian casualties on the israeli side and their own side for the purpose of propaganda and thats the raul reality and has to be said over and over again. Theres an effort to deceive preemptively and an effort to sensorineural sense of aloha throughout this entire conflict, and the truth matters. It Still Matters and must matter. Sandra guy, youre floored by what you heard in the first montage. Antiisrael students praising hamas, if you can believe that, listen. Hamas is a terrorist organization and its a resistance. Its a Resistance Movement and we need to stand behind it. Hamas sometimes does take extremist approach and we need to understand why. Israel, what do you say, how many kids did you kill today . Sandra to the one young woman there in the middle of the montage, guy, hamas sometimes does take an extremist approach, but we need to understand why, she said. When i say this isnt just happening here in new york city, we have a map of planned pro palestinian protests that have either happened or are being planned nationwide, guy. The moral rot is widespread and extremely upsetting and a lot of places including here at stanford and my own alma mater northwestern which i think is bret guy, let me interrupt. This is Secretary Of State blinken arriving in bahrain. Wanted our viewers to know what theyre seeing. This is his tour to leaders in the region. Go ahead. Sorry. No problem, bret. I was just going to say we hear these Ivory Tower Locations and enclaves across the country that words are violence. Silence is violence. Looking at someone the wrong way or misgendering someone or maybe saying something slight liliana right of center is dangerous and causing people to be unsafe and a lot of these same institutions that indulge that nonsense are silent . I guess not in a violent way this time, but silent or willing to put up with open celebration of genocide. If you want to talk about people feeling unsafe, the number of jewish undergrads that i have heard from across this country just this week who are terrified and it is extremely, extremely upsetting and tressaing. Distressing. Sandra guy, this is a live view of joe biden on the ground in route to philadelphia. He is expected to arrive in philadelphia about 45 minutes from now and bret, this obviously is a big moment in the middle of an enormous conflict. And the world is turning to this u. S. President for leadership as he says as we stand firmly with israel. Bret yeah, listen, his speeches over the past couple of days have been applauded by the israelis, by republicans on capitol hill. What he said inside those spespeeches has been applauded d the appearance of Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu and what he said theres not a moral equivalence here and it is not soldier and soldier. It is terrorist on children, terrorist on family and having that said from the president and Secretary Of State and white house podium meant a lot to israelis and lawmakers on cap holohill and theres criticism from the administration, how long it took from the initial part for him to first talk and the iran policy that we just talked about with Secretary Asper on whether there needs to be more of a focus on what iran is doing to support iran and hezbollah. What theyre saying is getting applauded across the country and overseas. Sandra hes heading to philadelphia and delivering a speech on the economic agenda and the conflict in the middle east and hes except commented on it and the purpose of the speech today is talking about the hydrogen hub based around philadelphia and its expected to receive part of the 7 billion in federal funding meant to accelerate hydrogenases Clean Energy Hydrogen as an Energy Source and listening to the president s words commenting on the ongoing conflict overseas. Well watch for that, bret. Bret tough to breakthrough on other topics in the middle of all this. But well try. The conflict between israel and hamas rages on, the Biden Administration is working frantically to get americans out of israel and thousands that want to get out immediately and charter flights are available for the thousands that have been stuck in the country since the war began. But what to do for the hostages held by hamas remains obviously an open question and serious one. Jillian turner is live at the State Department with that. Hi, jillian. Reporter hi, bret. The Secretary Of State landed in bahrain to continue middle east tour and hes in a race against the clock to try and locate american hostages being held by hamas inside gaza. Speaking a moment ago in jordan before he departed, the secretary notably thanked the qatar government for their help in trying to free the remaining american hostages. Take a listen. I really thank qatar for their help and there can be no business when theres war with hamas. Burning babies, burning families to death and taking little children as hostages. Reporter qatar is communicating directly with gaza and theyve remained issues of the remaining american hostages and President Biden held a call with the family of 14 Americans Still unaccounted for. Senior official said he wanted to talk to them himself directly. Some of those seam family members, Secretary Blinken spoke with yesterday, listen. We met with Secretary Of State blinken and heard President Bidens speech and beyond grateful for the support of the American Government. Reporter yet the white house indicated its a race against the clock to free The Americans being held captive and now every single minute counts. It is a common tactic in the hamas play book to break up hostages and move them around in sometimes small groups so we have nothing that would indicate to us that they would follow a different set of protocols. Reporter state Department White house providing very scant details about these 14 americans unaccounted for and about a handful that remain in captivity held by hamas, the white house as you sawed there, bret, at the podium a handful being held hostage and were pressing them every hour to provide more information publicly. Sandra gillian, these are huge efforts trying to get deat a timing to get to the hostages and many of the unaccounted for americans are thought to have dual israeli american citizenship. I know this came up with john Keystone Lake by when he was brief john kirby when he was briefing yesterday and israeli authorities believe up to 150 hostages being held in gaza. What more can you add to that, gillian . The administration has not provided any specific details, sandra, about the location of the folks and condition and health and overall wellbeing has not provided any information about whether theyve been allowed any form of communication with one another. Its also unclear how much the white house even knows right now about their precise identities. Its been a race to get any kind of information from any u. S. Official at this point as you mentioned one thing that is widely believed is that its of The Americans who will remain unaccounted for and remain this thought Inside Gaza Being held hostage a fair bit of them are dual u. S. Israeli citizens. So, i mean, thats really it. Bret gibbs llian, its bret again and saw the Secretary Of State in do ha alongside the Prim Minister Working behind the scenes to get the hostages out and qatar helped in afghanistan and we have a relationship but the first statement qatar put out is israel is solely responsible for what happened on the ground. Thats in direct contrast like what the uae and bahrain put out about civilian deaths. If you talked to anybody at the State Department about that and each country puts out their own statement but, boy, Kansas City Chiefs fars was really aggressive qatars was really aggressive. The contrast in spark about that and we have not found out if the u. S. Reprimanded any official or called them out. If you watch Secretary Blinkens Joint Press Conference with the Prime Minister today, they were in lock step together. Blinken called out human right abuses and qatar didnt call them out but said theyre going to try and do everything they can to help the American Government locate their hostages and help other countries locate foreign hostages being held inside of gaza and qatar government is one of the only governments functioning thats straddling these two worlds communicating directedly behind the closed doors of hamas leadership and also trying to maintain relations with the wider Western World europe and United States and very few countries in a specific diplomatic situation and theres a lot of the u. S. Is leaning on qatar in a certain respect. We do know from foreign sources, bret, not from source here at the State Department that they that qatar did raise the issue of these hostages with ho hamas, but we dont know what they learned. Sandra sorry, gillian, were getting news here that we want to bring to our audience as soon as possible. Israel remains at war, we are getting now that the u. S. Ambassador to china, nicolas burns, is confirming on twitter, on x, that the israeli an israeli diplomat has been attacked in china. Thats all that we know at this time. Were seeking more on that and the u. S. Ambassador to china said hes shocked on the attack but were looking for more information on that. Bret its a day to watch as that call went around the world for action and seeing those protests. Earlier, sandra, the antiisrael protests across the country and those kind of demonstration happening on campus and all around the world. Bring in doug lever, Wall Street Journal correspondent based in israel. Thanks for being here. Your thoughts on what youre seeing there and just overall today . Look, Parts Of Hamas whole game plan is bring the wider region into the war and it started the war calling for others to get involved and now it continues to try to trump support from around the region. These protests were seeing in the region itself we heard former hamas leader call for them a few days ago and called on the countries surrounding israel to take part in the battle so this is, you know, a very fundamental part of hamas strategy here to try and form a ring around israel, a ring of certain battles for them to make it harder to handle. Bret were hearing about this report from the u. S. Am baambassador to beginning about this attack and other beijing and other attacks here and its real that they have a global region in other places. I want to Say Something because its, weve seen a lot of found between israel and hamas between israel and see the global protests and the images that were seeing today jot forcefulness retaliating. We risk dragging people from around the world into the conflict here through the protests and so, you know, know, this is something to watch out for blood is boiling so much on each side, there really is a risk here. Bret yeah, this seven before the street to Street Fighting as israel tries to eradicates and hamas with detailed maps and military towns and ba bases and Infiltration Rs and taking together that Hamas Set Out from the start to target military installations and attack civilian Population Centers and take hostages from the beginning and they offer evidence of the scale of hamas intelligence gathering and the degree of planning for the assault. Weve talked a bit about the planning, but just from on the ground in israel and hearing some of this about the weave seen the materials they had and knew where all the communities were. The synagogues and diamond halls and Security Guards were there. They knew where to gather the hostages and they knew for example they had materials with them that hamas thought that i had receive retaliation from the israelis sooner but it didnt occur and hamas took out guard towers with drones and at the begins of the attack and had this planned down to a t. They knew what they were going to do and its more than that. Not only planning to go to the civilian places and i think more will come out, bret, in the future just about how much theyre planning and really that their orders were not to take hostages. Its not a war of tanks and guns. Its a war of hearts and minds. Now hamas is trying to walk back things it did on saturday. It proudly paraded the brutality on saturday and now its trying to say, oh, our soldiers or our fighters or one of the main leaders said that yesterday. Today i saw a picture of ha pastrami fighters treating israeli children nicely taking them hostage. This is all part of this hamas trying to show that they the picture is too brutal and losing support around the world and maybe its a big problem for them. They claim they dont forget civilians while shooting rockets at civilians and this claim is very strange, bizarre, but its all part of, again, this hearts and mind war, which will play a very big role going forward. Bret yeah, you make great points. Its tough to say after the beheading of babies and killing of babies and burning of families that there was anything but a planning to do that. Just interested quickly in the Intelligence Failure. The israeli Officials Say were going to fight first and investigate later. What youre reporting on, the details that hamas had initially, you know, how they had those details number one. How the intelligence tail yuri colins happened number two and israel gets ready to go into gaza and need intelligence to be able to tell them how to do that street by street, building by building. Itll be the most difficult fighting weve ever seen. Theres an Intelligence Failure from taking your eye of the ball and the israelis know whats in gaza, but i dont pretend to know what they intend to do when they enter gaza. But the intelligence failing yuri colins, and im sure therell be much discussion about this later on, but theres no doubt, i think, many people in israel where i am now feel it has to lot to do with israels internal division at the time and they were warning the israelis and heart in Security Briefings that israels enemies smelled weakness. I dont know how much breaking down on saturday. Before this war began on saturday, the biggest fear in israel was a civil war. Theyre planning attacks against them at the same time. Bret dov, we appreciate your reporting. Great to have you back. Thank you very much. Sandra bret, weve been reporting for about the last hour and a half we had gotten word that Foreign AffairsCommittee ChairmanMichael Mccall was asked to come to the white house. We can now confirm that mccaul is indeed at the white house to discuss that National Security package. This is a live stake out camera that we have outside the white house and told theres a possibility that he may come out and speak to the cameras after this meeting concludes. But obviously this is any developments. Dont see a marine standing outside the door there. Bret this would be the place that lawmakers come to talk to the press in the Northern Lawn area. Itll be interesting to see how they deal with chairman mccaul and he has had real concerns, not only about whats happening overseas obviously and making sure that israel gets everything it needs in the middle of a house uproar and trying to find a new speaker. Also concerns about border and gaza boarder and southern border and what happens there and chairman mccaul was former chairman of the Homeland Security committee and he knows all too well how many people have come over the southern border and what this looks like today in the threat inside the u. S. Sandra and, bret, adding to this as we do anticipate we could hear from congressman mccaul a short time from now Aishahs Areny reporting you recollected the section 51 of the Arms Export Control Act and an increase to sdaf cap. The cap was last increased in 2022 to 2. 5 billion so well be looking for that, bret, when we get any new information out of this meeting happening at the white house. Now this. We got really tired and they realized that we are really surrounded by hamas staying silent and we covered ourselves with leaves for over six hours. He called for like two minutes and told us, please, save me. I turned left into the fields and while shooting at us and it was from behind. Sandra harrowing account of the survivors of the supernova Music Festival escaping attacks by hamas and next guest survived by hiding in an orange tree for six hours. Daniel levy joins us now. Daniel, were so gratedful youre alive to tell this story. What can you tell us about what happened that day. The same story i told to abc to be honest. Im grateful for you to give the stage for people from the nova party to tell what happened there. We had fights from lebanon and from hamas, hezbollah all together. So we are told to stay in the open field and not to get panicked and just try to stay calm. So we just stay put for 30 minutes, Something Like that. Afterwards we heard from far ran to the car and we started dridriving and a friend of ours told us dont go to the road. Ask come here and they evacuate people from Suicide Bombers up in the road. Come here and stay with us. Meanwhile we all stay just the people from the party, the dancers and people that came to dance. The people that came to have fun for life and hamas came from the north and from the east. And just started shooting at us. Sandra terrifying. All of the people yeah, sorry. You want to ask something . Sandra were listening to your story. Theres too much like them and, you know, people will look back at this day already the worst civilian massacre in Ziti Ragaini Ellie History and israeli history and killed 260 israelis and happened of course as we know on a national holiday. What was it like when you saw, you know, rockets lighting up the sky . I mean, those that were taken, they were kidnapped and taken into the hideouts. Ououts. Im sorry for being cynical. Were really used to it and weve been to lebanon war and we have always problematic with the people going to banish us because this is political stuff. This is stuff that countries co. I dont know, but were used to i saw the rockets and know i have to stay put. This is what i learned and just when i heard the gunshots, then i understood that this is much severe than just rockets. This is not a regular attack on israel. This is much more severe. This is the point when everything got switched and when this gunshots started we just start running and last couple of days we start to remember the people and terneds and people with me getting phone calls on the way and finding people its a good friend of mine and brought over a good the daughter of a good friend of mine died there. People i knew died there. Theres nothing good that i can say just to remember them and to hope for better days. I really hope that better days will come for us and for people aboard and for all of the people and this situation is not normal. Hamas is not asking for peace and hamas is not asking to have nice leaf. Peep want to demolish and kill and rape and cut peoples head is not people of peace. Because i know a lot of people that was in this party, that really wanted to be there and just really wanted to dance and have a good time. Theres nothing good that i can say. I really hope that hamas will vanish. Will vanish and the innocent people will try to figure out with, i dont know, with the United States, with europe, a way for living their life in peace. I just hope this world will give the end to hamas. This is what i believe that should happen, and only my opinion. Sandra daniel, thank you for coming on and sharing your story as hard as it was.
