Grave danger for lebanon and the Middle East. Israel says its work is not finished, No One can be sure what will come next. A Big Question is how will countries in the middle East Respond to nasrallah� s death. Our security correspondent, frank gardner, looks at what might happen next. This assassination has taken the Middle East a step closer potentially to a much wider and more damaging regional one. What happens next depends on several factors, firstly what will hezbollah do next, its Command Structure has been decapitated, communication sabotaged, many weapons destroyed but it has vowed to carry on Fighting Israel and its members are being for revenge. It still has a large arsenal of missiles, many of which can reach Tel Aviv but there will be pressure within its ranks to use these soon before they get destroyed. If they do in a mass attack then israels response could wreak havoc on lebanon on even a run. So what will run do . This assassination is as much a blow to iran as to hezbollah. It has a nosed five days of mourning and rallies across the country have taken place. It has already taken precautions hiding away its we dont ok see is also assassinated. Hardliners will also be pushing for a the sponsors to the latest humiliation by israel. Iran has a galaxy of allied militia around the Middle East as well as hezbollah, Houthi And Yemen and ingres groups in syria. But whatever Response Iran that chooses and were likely calibrated to be just short of triggering a water cannot win. What will israel do next . The one thing it is not doing is posing for a ceasefire, and reckons it has got hezbollah on the back foot so it will want to press on with its notary campaign until the threat of missiles is removed. Short of eight hezbollah surrendered and that is unlikely it is almost inevitable we could see this, is really going trips into lebanon, they have been training for it at their priority will be to find and destroy those remaining missiles, many of which are underground. Going end will be easy but getting out could like gaza take months. Earlier we were joined by our Middle East correspondent, Hugo BachegaIn Beirut and our correspondents Jon Donnison in jerusalem. I started by asking hugo about the mood on ground In Beirut and the expectation about next moves. There is a tension anxious wait, people want to see how hezbollah will respond, the matter your political Affiliation Hezbollah and Hassan Nasrallah are extreme are powerful, for 30 years he was the leader of a group that is often described as a state within a state in lebanon, hezbollah is considered a Terrorist Organisation by the uk and us, many others but here in lebanon it is more than a militia, it is a political party with representation in parliament, a huge social organisation with significant support in lebanon so it is extremely influential and powerful, there was shock here yesterday when the news was confirmed that Hassan Nasrallah had been killed by the israeli military in the Air Strikes so i think people are waiting to see what hezbollah will do, obviously the leadership has been decimated, hezbollah has been decimated, hezbollah has been extremely weakened by almost two weeks of intense Air Strikes so we still do not know how the responsible b, dont know the Ability Hezbollah has to organise a the sponsors and carry out a significant response but obviously despite the Attacks Hezbollah continues to be a formidable force, still thousands of rockets including missiles that can strike deep inside israel, thousands of fighters, experienced fighters and the concern here is that we are seeing the beginning of a wider Israeli Campaign against hezbollah that seems likely to include a Ground Incursion into Southern Lebanon to destroy the infrastructure that has been built and push fighters away from the border. Give us a sense of what the wider public and political sentiment is on a possible Ground Invasion, obviously that is difficult day different Particle Views but give us a sense of radio think The Public Mood is. I give us a sense of radio think The Public Mood is. The public mood is. I think israel is The Public Mood is. I think israel is unmodulated The Public Mood is. I think israel is unmodulated and| The Public Mood is. I think Israelis Unmodulated and their israel is unmodulated and their support for the war against hezbollah than in gaza will many feel the government should be prioritising a Ceasefire And Hostage steel. I think most israelis welcome the campaign against hezbollah, there was celebration over the death of Hassan Nasrallah, i saw footage from a beach in the south of israel where the lifeguard announced the death of Hassan Nasrallah, a huge cheer went up so i do not think i think the premise that has considerable support and there is no indication at. Israel feels it has the boot on the throat of hezbollah and it is going to continue to apply the pressure. As for a potential Ground Invasion, that comes with risk, you remember and to thousand and six the cars time Hezbollah And Israel had a full Scale War Israel went and with ground troops and was eventually pushed Back And L large number of israeli soldiers were killed so there are risks but many analysts believe you cannot dismantle hezbollah entirely without going in with troops on the ground. In going in with troops on the round. ,. , ground. In terms of the fighting ground. In terms of the Fighting Strength ground. In terms of the Fighting Strength of ground. In terms of the Fighting Strength of hezbollah, we have heard of the past about how formidable it is and yet its leader has been taken out, many of the top commanders, their Communication Systems have been attacked in the last two weeks, what position is at end to resist against an israeli Ground Invasion . We have seen israeli Ground Invasion . We have seen that israeli Ground Invasion . Have seen that hezbollah has remained defiant but it has been weakened and damaged by two weeks of intense israeli attacks, Communications Network disrupted, its leadership has been decimated, infrastructure has taken a hit after extensive districts In Beirut, also in Southern Lebanon so we still do not know how hezbollah and the capacity they have two a response against these israeli attacks but i have to say there is also the impact on the population here in lebanon because we have seen hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced because of the israeli attacks, at least 1000 people have been killed and authorities are warning that hospitals and shelters that have been housing those displaced residents are under Pressure And Yesterday the Prime Minister warned that lebanon was facing a very dangerous situation. This comes a. Ainst dangerous situation. This comes against the dangerous situation. This comes against the backdrop dangerous situation. This comes against the backdrop of dangerous situation. This comes against the backdrop of a against the Backdrop Of A Changing American Political backdrop with the us election due in five weeks, Joe Biden has been a staunch supporter of the israeli leadership, this is taking place as we look to november, we do not know what level of support will come for israel and what does, does that affect the calculation of how the government is acting and its own timeline. I the government is acting and its own timeline. Its own timeline. I think it probably its own timeline. I think it probably does, its own timeline. I think it probably does, i its own timeline. I think it probably does, i think its own timeline. I think it l probably does, i think there its own timeline. I think it probably does, i think there is an acceptance that prime Minister Netanyahu would prefer that the next president of the us was donald trump. He thinks he has better support for israel and i do not think people see any major shift in policy from The Americans in the Run Up to the election, if we ended up with a Kamala Harris Presidency perhaps that could be a shift in direction but the truth of the matter as America Led by President Biden has been putting huge pressure on israel to try to get a ceasefire not only with hezbollah but for months now in gaza and all that pressure has led to nothing and i think the truth is israel is doing what it thinks is necessary to protect its citizens and No One within the international community even The Americans the staunchest ally of israel can do anything to stop them. I also asked of them are support for a Ground Invasion. Not only with the assassination of Hassan Nasrallah but at the last ten days eliminating most of the hezbollah leadership i think that the support for such a Ground Invasion. 60,000 Israelis Cabin displaced and so it all along as a strategic victory, i think they would like to see the i think they would like to see the north see the see the north of israel is secure again. The question is what the israeli leadership learns from its Military Success and whether it can constructively translate it into a diplomatic, a diplomatic effort and a political solution. Is there nervousness, do you think, should israel be nervous about whatever retaliation comes their way . I think it should be prepared. It sh
