Troops have joined thousands of volunteers from across south america. In bolivia in the amazon Tropical Forests have been burning out of control for weeks doubling in size since the last in america to the sea a new man has more now from sun enough you in eastern bolivia. Soldiers arrived in sunday to help combat wildfires. Famous colonial jewel settled by missionaries in the late sixtys hundreds has been converted into an Operation Center for the firefighting effort. Night in the wildfires are spreading out of control fanned by strong winds a prolonged drought and extremely high temperatures. With youll start to see how the animals in the forest are burning but we are proud to be able to help these soldiers are going off again to fight the fires but as you can see theyre not very well equipped they dont look like firemen they dont have the equipment of firemen their boats have rubber soles that can easily melt in the flames and in the intense heat and they also dont have the proper masks to protect them from the 6 smoke and from smoke inhalation. Thousands of young volunteers are joining them. Like you said to leave it out from ecuador. But i have never fought fires before but if you lose the nerves of steel and then a limb to do it this fire isnt just the bolivian problem its all of us because the Tropical Forest is fundamental to our survival. This part of eastern bolivia is cattle country nearly 2 months ago the government signed a decree authorizing ranchers to expand the grazing frontier using fire to clear the Tropical Forest cattle is Good Business says the mare. Depressing and send the karine the presence of the leaders of the cattle ranchers didnt take into account the weather. Or the fact that a drought makes it very dangerous to clear the land which fire they dont care and this is the result. The decree hasnt been rescinded despite more than 1500000 hector is livias amazon and to get on a Tropical Forests destroyed so far by fire the. Volunteers pray for god to send them rain. 7 and for a time it seems their prayers are answered. The bear is jubilant the night shower is insufficient to stop the catastrophe but given the circumstances people here believe every drop counts you see in human son ignacio. Ok lets just show you the latest pictures coming to us live here. On the i mean aftermath of the Israeli Military saying lebannon has fired that antitank missile on to a border village the village is called a vien are no immediate reports of any casualties and stay with these live pictures as long as they last and well talk to our correspondent on the phones in a holder who joins us on the line from beirut saying what else do we know. Well hezbollah the Lebanese Armed group is claiming responsibility for an a pack in route like you were mentioning in the Israeli Border town of even in that statement hezbollah is saying that they targeted an israeli vehicle. That the attack called casualty again you did mention that the israelis have still not confirmed whether or not there was an attack and whether a vehicle was targeted or whether or not there were casualties the israeli media did report that in. Missile was fired from levanon include israel and hezbollah for a week now have been promising a response everyone was bracing for an attack like this on sunday has been the secretary. House on the throne the said that israel will have to pay a price for 2. 00 attacks it is blaming israel for killing 2 of its operatives and airstrikes in neighboring syria and the blaming israel for sending what it says were 2 armed drones into its stronghold in the Southern Suburbs of beirut those drones one of them exploded and cause a material damage but there were no casualties but hezbollah said at the time that this time they will not remain silent it is worth to mention that over the past few years a as the house retaliates heads to. Alleged israeli strikes and past but mainly in this few said should be 5 the area so this is the 1st time hezbollah is claiming and i crack implied israel since the 2006 war between hezbollah and israel weve also got these claims from dean t. V. Season hezbollah saying the operation quotes killed and wounded those inside an Israeli Military vehicle just kind of breaks for us can we trust what they say on this t. V. Channel well this t. V. Channel it seems to be close to hezbollah hezbollah statements was also reported on. Television so this is hezbollah claiming responsibility for an attack that it promised to carry out just last nights secretary general hossam the through all the reiterated that the decision has been taken and we have left it up to our field commanders on the ground to carry out the operation when that. I think weve lost. A holder in beirut well try and get it back for you just as soon as we can if youre just joining us here on the news what youre looking at right now looks like smoke in the air not tear gas weve been covering lots of stories with tear gas involved in them in the past couple weeks that is not tear gas thats the aftermath of what hezbollah says was an operation which quote has killed and wounded people inside an Israeli Military vehicles in the heart of our correspondent in beirut there making the point that oh my dean t. V. That claim being broadcast by dean dean t. V. Pardon me they are seen as being very close to the ball at leadership in the form of. Making a couple of televised addresses in the last what 7 days or so saying there would be some sort of retaliate story action israels military according to the Reuters News Agency saying it had fired into southern lebanon after a number of antitank missiles targeted and Israeli Military base and Army Vehicles near the border but specifically what were talking about now is not to do with an Israeli Military base we are talking about Army Vehicles we understand being hit whether they were successfully targets hit or not difficult to say for sure what were talking about is an antitank missile according to the Israeli Military landing on a border village called the same we reestablish contact with beirut correspondent saying a harder zina just to break this down into into its jigsaw pieces for us we havent heard very much of hezbollah until a couple of weeks ago we havent heard from Hassan Nasrallah until what 78 days ago why is this percolating through the the fog of conflict in the region. Well hezbollah is an ally of iran there are heightened tensions in the region between iran and the United States and iran and israel as well believes that iran is gaining a foothold in countries across the region it has expanded its influence in syria in lebanon on iraq and as of late is well has really opened 3 fronts against iran allies in the region targeting iranian bases and bases that belonging to iran and 9 syria are believed to be responsible for attacks against the socalled Popular Mobilisation forces in iraq and just last week it is being blamed for sending 2 armed drones to hezbollahs Southern Suburbs stronghold that is why hezbollah according to the secretary general said that basically. We are going to respond and we conduct retaliation and it seems that that we call the action has now happened has been in the thing as weve been mentioning it targeted an israeli vehicle in the Israeli Border town of others mean causing casualties and now i must say by those monarch television station is reporting that israel is we probably a painting by bombarding outskirts of muddling along among the rocks is a lebanese town right on the border with israel but the big question now is whether or not this. Flare will be contained whether hezbollah responded as we tell the aid and call over there will be International Diplomatic efforts to calm the pension or whether or not it could flare up into an open conflict an all out war. Which is quite tame her because unlike 2000 and. Israel is that holding the lebanese government of the lead lebanese sponsor for part of an accord has a lot of action when we talk about this turn on the israeli side of a v. M. Or the lebanese town that youre saying is reportedly being targeted by israel as were having this conversation is it that those 2 particular locations have a tactical strategic advantage if either side manages to damage them or is it just all about the symbolism and being seen to Exchange Fire it would be more symbolism and more so far what it looks like its what the prize what would like to have made this that really to flare up they they dont want this to escalate further. Israels response getting money very close to the lebanese border its not putting deep end to lebanese territory its not target cooling for example the Southern Suburbs in beirut which is really a very densely populated neighborhood at least not yet. Peter we can only speculate just. A few minutes ago but there is a fear of the situation. Over the past week i must say the Prime Minister of lebanon. How do you have been holding a lot of diplomatic. Diplomatic activities with. The fact that theres. The questions in the region because it does not want lebanon to be called to the middle of this confrontation the bigger confrontation in the region like we mentioned earlier between iran and the United States. And israel and iran ok so the moment we leave our conversation to stay close we will come back to you as and when there are any developments of you just joining us here on aljazeera were rolling through to bring you continuing coverage of this developing story on the border between israel and lebanon on the Israeli Military saying lebanons 5 an antitank missiles into a border village. Welcome if youre just joining us well begin this half hour of aljazeera world news with a developing breaking story israels military says lebanon has fired several antitank missiles towards northern israel it happened on the Israeli Border village of the same there are no immediate reports of any casualties israel has been on a state of high alert earlier the Lebanese Army said an israeli drone violated its air space and caused a fire on its side of the border in a correspondent in beirut monitoring local television in the lebanese capital shes getting quotes where she is saying that the Lebanese Military is now saying as well that a lebanese town is as we speak being targeted by the Israeli Military will stay with these live pictures and well talk to our middle east correspondent another one of our team covering the story for us harry forsett joins us live now on the ground there harry where are you give us a sense of whats going on. Were just north of the Israeli Community of beit hillel which is a small village in the upper galilee region of israel a few tens of kilometers short of the northernmost point of israel where it touches the lebanese border that border runs south west of where we are and i v. M. Is actually about 30 kilometers southwest of where we are now according to the Israeli Military what happened was that there were several antitank missiles fired from the lebanese side of the border targeting Israeli Military base and Israeli Military vehicles the Israeli Military is saying that hits were taken in that attack although its not specifying if there are you know any casualties so far it said it has responded to the sources of that fire and is striking other targets inside lebanon its also saying according to israeli media reports that the entire border between lebanon and israel which has on the leader of hezbollah warned could be ripe for attack at any point along that border in his speech on saturday night theyre saying that the entirety of that border a 4 kilometer band back from it people are being told to keep inside and open the bomb shelters in that area to get the feeling area that israel was ready for this given that we havent heard from her son nasrallah on hezbollah t. V. For a couple of weeks then he pops up twice in quick succession of a period of what 7 or 8 days. Well i think israels been ready since last sunday when he made that speech saying that israel had breached the terms of the the rules of engagement have been in place since the last israel lebanon war in 2006 he said that by target seeing southern beirut hezbollah stronghold with explosive drones which is what he says israel did israel has yet to to make any comments on the whether or not it was responsible for that last sun early early hours of sunday morning a week ago from very shortly after that he said that hezbollah would strike back and put the israeli army on notice and theyve taken that extremely seriously they say they have been fortifying their positions and preparing just yesterday we saw reports of pretty large columns of Israeli Armored vehicles being brought up here so the upper reaches of the galilee region and so certainly israel was ready and it put on a postponement a military exercise which was due to happen later in the week. Not from september so i think its not clear whether israel was aware just how approximate this attack would be but there was certainly ready for something and indeed earlier on sunday there was fire coming the other way the Israeli Military has confirmed it was engaged in a military action that coming after reports from al menar t. V. Links to hezbollah in lebanon that an israeli drone had dropped incendiary material on news on the lebanese side of the border setting fires to that area it said that local people put those fires out and then there was subsequently artillery fired from the israeli from the israeli side towards lebanon as i say the Israeli Military only said t
