Meantime israel also keeping up the Pressure Idf said they killed another about that iran that Groups Commander that is at least seven taken out and just over a week. On Friday Israel eliminated hezbollah leader and the bold airstrike on beirut. A wave of targeted killings that have wiped out almost all of the iranian backed Terror Groups and leadership. The radical islamic terrorists and tehran on their heels. Hello Everyone Welcome to Fox News live at eric shawn. Hey arthel. Aarthel hello eric, hello everyone im Arthel Neville by The Question now will hezbollah it sponsor ironic retaliate and theres also no let up in the war against hamas who started all of this nearly one year ago. The israeli military said they uncovered dismantled a tunnel in Central Gaza that stretched for more than half a mile. Eric formal former israeli ambassador standing by to talk about the conflict and what to do about a run for it lets first go to Mike Tobin with the very latest on the ground. Hi mike. The last couple of minutes has been combat over the north of israel. A couple drones fired out of lebanon. Made it to the town you can see over my right soul shoulder. The drones were intercepted from an israeli warship also israel says Combat Helicopter took out at least one of those drones. Israels not letting up on the pressure confirming strikes on yemen. As well as towns and a Power Plant to this file is two days in which israel was the target of bliss to commit missiles fired they were intercepted aimed at central israel. But No One was injured in both cases those missiles were taken out. Israel hit that port back in July The 20th in response to a drone that struck Tel Aviv killing one the date after hes been killed his buddies And Pull pulled from the Rubble Idf said 20 hezbollah operatives were killed alongside of them he was hit in the suburb of beirut with the Can Control structures in the same Neighborhood Israel said today that hezbollah executive Council Member was assassinated. The threat of a ground invasion, israels called up two brigades of her service but also armored personnel carriers and tanks have been moved from gaza to the lebanese Border But Attention is focused on the North Combat continues in the gaza strip. Fifth Brigade And Combat engineers located destroyed a tunnel about a kilometer long and Central Gaza. It was complete with rooms for long stays underground. Engineers are rigged it with explosives and blew it up. Given the Threat Iran could join the fight or expend the conflict at any time the pentagon says today that Uss Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group as well as the u. S. As a wasp Amphibious Ready Group with their complement of personnel and a weapons will remain in the region for a longer time. Eric arete Mike Tobin thank you. Aarthel alright more on this lets bring in former israeli Prime Minister bennett. Mr. Bennet, thank you so much for joining us here. First of all iran says this represents a serious escalation in changes the rules of the game. Do you anticipate a consequential response from ironic . Or did israel send a strong message to iran to stop all you can . Our actions send the message. What we have seen over the past few hours Israels Iron Fist Cant Reach anywhere. Anywhere in the Middle East. And i think in tehran see it. They are now understanding that if you mess with the Jewish State we hit back. We hit back powerfully. We will no longer tolerate anyone who is threatening our people. Arthel meanwhile he is dead. I ask you can at decapitated hezbollah forge a formidable fight. Also is another Idf Ground Incursion and lebanon imminent . Or is there a diplomatic offramp . I want to clarify what our objective is. Its not only a ceasefire only for hezbollah to recuperate. Right now hezbollah is temporarily almost paralyzed we hit them bad, we killed their ceo. We killed their Board Of Directors we killed their Executive Management and whoever conducted the Pager Attack took out much of their mid level management. Right now hezbollah is in shambles but that is a temporary. If we let up they will ultimately be able to recover and threaten our northern citizens. Again i want to point out for the past 35 years they have been making our lives they have killed scores of israelis my Best Friend over the past year they killed thousands of israelis including 12 children playing soccer. What we need to set as an objective is to permanently remove the threat of houthi in the north. Arthel does that mean a Ground Incursion will be part of that maneuver . Theres a couple ways to achieve it. I trust the idf knows how to get that done. Arthel okay, we will move on we are eight days from the horrific Headmaster Attack and is of the Day Iran tried to stop normalization between Israel And Saudi arabia. Now this morning republican Senator Lindsey Graham had a message about this. Lets listen. To my Friends Of Israel to my friends and Saudi Arabia, he gave a great speech about the benefits of the deal. I have gone over it since last aprils seven times trying to help this administration normalized between Saudi Arabia and israel do not give up and do not let iran when do the deal. I ask you is a deal to end the arab Israel Conf Conflict gg to get done . I hope so. I think that sort of deal were we create an alliance of the positive countries and that moderate countries in the region Egypt Et Cetera Order to fight and repel the horrible access of evil of by ron, hezbollah, hamas. Now it israel on the offensive we need to set a very clear goal. The goal is within a reasonable timeframe to topple the iranian regime of the islamic republic of iran. That iranian regime is the epicenter of all of our problems in the Middle East. It is despised by its own people they iranian people hate that regime. It is incompetent, corrupt, mean, old regime that will fall but i think America Israel and the allies in the region can accelerate the demise of that regime. Arthel how do you do it and whats a reasonable timeframe . You do it not necessarily with the war but you use a bunch of tools similar to what was used against the Soviet Union and the 80s. I am talking about economic sanctions, diplomatic sanctions. I am talking about empowering the people of iran who go out And Protest. Every time they protest the iranian regime turns off the internet. We can Take Care of turning it back on. There are a lot of things we can do to empower the iranian people to overthrow their regime. And i want to make one more point out for the past 30 years in the past year after October 7, our enemies thought israel has lost it. That the israelis are weak, exhausted, not willing to sacrifice anymore. I am here to say very clearly, israel is a nation of lions. Thousands of people drove down October 7 to defend brothers and sisters. Many of them lost their lives the state of israel has shown we are willing to sacrifice it. We are willing to sacrifice for freedom. We are willing to put our ideals on top of material considerations. And we have not lost our edge but we can be clever, sophisticated, surprise our enemies and it is only just begun. My point to the region into our enemies, we are back. We are back big and we will make the Middle East a much better place. Arthel the lions are roaring No Doubt, sir. Meanwhile theres no Ceasefire Deal between israel and hamas in the gaza war. Do you know how many hostages are still being held in gaza . That are still alive and is there a plan to rescue them . There are A Hundred hostages in hamas custody. We do not know the precise number. I hope more than half of them are alive. We have to bring them home. This is a fundamental tenant of israels atheists that we never forget. We never leave anyone behind. Israel must bring them home. We have to step up the pressure on the war and reach a deal where we can bring them home safe and alive. Because right now they are suffocating in those tunnels. It is a horrible things and we are just a few days from now it is going to be a year for when they were kidnapped. They were kidnapped from their beds, from their homes, this is unacceptable. Arthel indeed it is unacceptable. Do you think you will get those hostages home soon, sir . We have to but we have to apply the pressure. And at the same time build the right deal to bring them home. Arthel okay, israel is inviting hamas and gaza. Hezbollah and 11 i went 37 days until the u. S. Presidential election. Kent u. S. Diplomacy work before then . Well, we need americas back to defeat our enemies to remove the noose that has been around our neck for so many years that we mistakenly let It Build over the past 15 or 20 years. But now we are on the offensive. What we need from america, Americas Help is to want to have her back into, bring the hostages home. Bring all of the hostages home in the right manner. Arthel i believe america has made it clear they have your back. I do and to ask you, are we looking at a widespread or given whats happened there in lebanon . It is already a widespread or in the sense the enemies for the past year have been hitting us again, again, and Killing Israelis and create a no mans land. The only israel over the past 10 days is that now it is a twosided war and we are hitting back. Those who did not press for 11 months to dismantle hezbollah i would suggest we are hitting back and do not tie our hands. Let us get the job done. Because what we do now will bring quiet stability and security. And hopefully Pi Peace for the t decades forward. Arthel understood sir by The Question remains what you will do it now and how long its going to take. That we are going to watch. We appreciate your time. And im really sorry to hear about your Best Friend, sir predicted here that is really Prime Minister Naftali Bennett thank you very much. Thank you very much. Eric the lines will win. Here in new York City and type protesters plan to gather intense where those speak out against by Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his military. This is the former gentry just told us the Oneyear Mark since the massacre by hamas to think those protesters will condemn hamas . Will they condemn Hassan Nasrallah 17 what about an Cb Cotton live in Times Square with an exclusive behindthescenes look. Also have the new Yorks City Police department is going behindthescenes to handle these protests. Nice to see a play despite the Rain Hundreds of protesters are expected to gather here in Times Square. They want the united states to stop sending those countries of committing genocide in gaza and now it lebanon.

Leader of the Terror Group Hezbollah he was killed in an airstrike on friday in the group said quote, mourns the martyrdom of hassan Nasrallah Leader of the lebanese resistance and a symbol of the steadfast struggle to liberate palestine. So, as the Middle East embraces for a wider conflict expect protest to continue by this week i should mention i was given exclusive look at the nypd joint Operations Center were officers are busy at monitoring the protest by Deputy Commissioner Sheppard tells me the agency respects everyone first Amendment Right to protest. But officers also must maintain order. This week other federal agencies join nypd at the center all Monitoring Droves of camo to ensure a quick response when things got out of hand. It is the perception happening that we have to battle. They are filming their video saying you know it was so peaceful. And then at showing you at times, at times the destruction of property, the blocking of the railways were an average citizen is just trying to get home to pick up their child. There being delayed can be disruptive to families and cause major issues. Todays a protest is slated to begin at 2 00 p. M. Local time. We will be monitoring and this comes about a week out from the Oneyear Mark when hamas invaded israel. Back to you.
