Well ash uh we were looking at videos hour ago that had many bringing in uh bodies to uh some area in khanus. Im sure its close to where youre at if not exactly where youre at and bodies were coming out of the vehicles. What is this . Situation there right now, ash do you have my voice . Ashif does not have me, well try to get him back, im sure through our efforts here, lets bring in jamal, professor of International Relations at Lebanese University who joins us from bairoots, and we also have ali, whos an editor and chief of the basira press joining us here from the capital tehran. Welcome to you both first start with you. Okay, we dont have our connections uh set up as of yet. We do apologize for that. So i will continue with the news. All right, lets see what we have here. Israel has been threatening to stage a ground operation in gaza for several days now. It has cited Different Reasons for the delay each time. Well has obtained information from the. Wellinformed sources that israel has in fact tried a ground Ground Invasion in gaza twice now, but to have failed both times. More in this report. The war in gaza is in its third week, and israel has been hinting a ground operation for several days. Israeli forces, backed by heavy deployment of us warships in the region have taken positions close to the besieged strips frontiers. While at the same time, war planes continue to indiscriminately pound gaza. The regime, however keeps delaying the Ground Invasion, citing the need to enhance the readiness of its forces and the issue of the captives. However, informed sources have told press tv that Israeli Forces have actually tried a ground offensive, and that twice. The first try happened on sunday afternoon as an israeli brigade was ambushed by Palestinian Resistance forces. When trying to enter gazas rafah border. Two bulldozers and a tank belonging to the regime were hit and some 10 tanks were left as the Israeli Soldiers fled for their lives. The second failed Ground Invasion, press tv source said, happened hours later on sunday night. This time more than 20 israeli tanks were repelled on the way to khan yunis. The regimes military later reported that one soldier was killed and three were injured by an anti. Tank missile shot by hamas during raid into the gaza strip. The khassam brigades, the armed wing of hamas, announce later its telegram account that it had pushed Israeli Forces back. Into the occupied territories. The next day, tel aviv announced that it had decided to delay the ground war in gaza, pending the arrival of additional American Forces in the region. Meanwhile, hamas and other Palestinian Resistance factions have expressed full readiness for any battle on the ground, warning that gaza will turn into a graveyard for invaders in the event of a ground offensive. I i think this is part of their plan, they were, we are expecting this to have. But what we hear from the people i mean from the military wink that we we believe that if they try to enter ghaza again it will be the what we call it the maqbara mean they will be not only defeated but they will be buried here in the gaz trip following the october 7 surprise operation by hamas the delusion of israels invincible military and intelligence power was shattered. The alaqsa flood operation demonstrated that hamas and other resistance groups are totally capable of performing offensive operations. On the other hand, Resistance Movements across the region have warned that in the event of us intervention, all american outposts in west asia will turn into legitimate targets. The question remains whether washington is ready to take this dangerous risk or not. The Palestinian ResistanceMuhammad Hamas says that one of his leaders has been killed under torture in an israeli jail. The hamas described the death of omar darahme as an assassination by the Israeli Regime. He was arrested in the occupied westbank on october the 9th following palestinians operation allows the flood. He was one of hundreds of palestinians detained by the regime in recent days. The Islamic Jahad Movement has also denounced the killing of darah me, calling it a preplanned assassination. So the crime demonstrates the scale of israeli brutality against palestinian detaines. Zam jihad added that israel is overtly waiting a war on palestinians held in israeli prisons. First of correspondent to the west bank monle says hundreds of palestinians have been detained in the occupied territories by the Israeli Regime since october 7. She says that exact whereabouts of the titanies remain unknown. The israelies are. Claiming that its a heart, he suffered from heart attack, this led to his death, however the Hamas Movement announced the assassination of omar daragmi, saying that he was one of its leaders and that he was murdered as a result of the torture he was subjected to in the Israeli Occupation prisons and described again his death as as as an assassination by the Israeli Regime. Uh, as i have said, hundreds of palestinians had been detained, the circumstances, the situation of those palestinians who were arrested by the Israeli Forces is not clear, lawyers were not able to see them, some were family members were saying that the journey of turture had started immediately at the same moment when the palestinian prisoners were detained, today we are. Speaking about some 1300 and even more, 1300 palestinians were detained since the 7th of october, and unfortunately this brings the number of palestinian prisoners in israeli jails to continue rising, today over 6,500 palestinians are languishing in israeli jails, hundreds of them are being held under the socalled administrative detention without charge or trial. And chief at basira press who joins us now from tehran. I salam, welcome to the program. Were seeing lots of um trips being made to israel, in particular uh visiting netanyahu. Im wondering uh, i mean, im just curious as to why these leaders are pledging such allegiance to netanyahu, unless theres Something Else going on behind the scenes here, because uh, from uh any accounts that you look at here. Uh october 7th was the big defeat, and here uh, the unfortunate killing of children and women does not constitute any type of victory in anyones eye any type of battlefield . The reason why theyre there is because the faith of the zionist regime and the humliation of the zionist regime will end up having reverberating effects on the continued decline of european and north American Powers. Which have already been in the decline, especially after the assassination of martyr khassum sulaymani and after the Russian Special military operation in ukraine. Um, so the reason why they um are there is to essentially guarantee that their last vestage of power and hegemy is not is not reduced to shame and to and to uh essentially decimation at the hands of the Palestinian Resistance and the greater Resistance Forces in the region. They also have a shared ideology and believing they are superior. Above the rest of humanity, and additionally they are also under the threat of nuclear blackmail, the europeans in particular, because the Israeli Nuclear warheads have the potential to reach europe, so if they if europe doesnt play ball, they are going to uh essentially be in the crosshairs of the zionist socalled samson option, which basically is a form of nuclear blackmail, not only against west asia. Perhaps not the neighboring countries because the zionits wont want to face any kind of Nuclear Fallout or anything like that, but im sure they could aim their weapons that god forbid iran or countries with a little bit with a little bit more distance, but they will definitely if europeans decide to stop playing ball, samson option is something that the israels have stated themselves specifically, so european populations who are watching this should know that they are also their very existence is threatened by zionist regime and thats why their puppet politicians have to go and cow before the zionists not just because of shared ideology as i mentioned or the uh wanting to not uh see more decline of european and American Power but i also believe because of black now sure let me bring in jamal boquin professor of International Relations at Lebanese University who joins us from beirout jamal boquin welcome to the program uh im looking at the latest thats uh im look down a list of events that have happened based on sources from. On uh in terms of whats occurring there, and uh, the uh military exchanges are not uh the way they were in the past days. Now we are looking at what has been uh supposedly advised by the us and israel heating to, and that is uh for it to uh not go into the gaza strip and to tone down its war if thats possible, because were still getting reports of of areas being bombed in order for the not to, in order for it not to jeopadize uh the issue of the captive. And also the us telling uh israel not to get engaged with with uh hezbollah and the resistance factions there, im wondering what you think about uh the approach that the us and or israel are using when it comes to hezbollah . Well, i believe that israel first is trying to tone down its high retoric against gaza and this has been best expressed in the release. Of some prisoners by hamas and it seems that this reflect indirect talks between the resistance in gaza and the zionist entity in order to resolve the situation without further escalation, so this has had an impact on the lebanese frontier which was a bit cooler yesterday than the previous days and we know that his was only willing to go into a full scale confrontation with israel, had it gone a full scale attack on gaza, which which is not the case so far, so and there are High Expectations now in lebanon that the conflict will not erupt into a full scale conflict that would intail bombing of lebanese hinterland and in response, targeting of zionist hinterland, we had the Iranian Foreign minister was sin abdullahyan ali salam who has said that the us has actually sent it messages, im not too sure, im im guessing indirectly obviously getting to uh the Iranian Foreign ministry and the foreign minister that it has that it has said that its not interested in any war with iran and its not interested for a war to to break out and it has asked iran to take the. To ask other countries uh to uh somewhat not not get militarily involved which which im guessing would also involve uh maybe irans influence or should i say um the fact that iran has good relations with hesbollah and resistance factions um thats pretty interesting uh coming from the us that um is providing israel with the weapons to to attack israel but telling iran take the lead to stop that from happening. Uh, can you make sense out of it . Well, im sorry, ill ask the same question from you, actually, go ahead, sorry, im going to ask you that question, but its for ali salam. Go ahead, its okay, um, the u. S. Speaks with a forked tongue all the time, so if the that theyre saying such a thing, um, is is not because they care or not because they want uh palestinians to stop being massacred, i mean this is a, this is genocide going on on live tv and everyone is crying for the murder, everyone is treating the murderer as the victim, its because the us is afraid by all their calculations according to. Their own military studies and exercises, they would be absolutely obliterated by iran even in a direct confrontation alone, forget about all of irans allies and support across the region, which we have se
