00:00We have non-stop breaking updates coming in from what looks like a ceasefire could be coming to
00:04an end already in West Asia. I'm Pooja Shali. Let me take you through the first breaking news coming
00:09in following the Israeli Air Force strike. The widespread destruction in the town of Al-Shahabia
00:14in southern Lebanon is being reported. Look at this aftermath. We are trolled. This is Lebanon
00:21where Israeli strikes have led to this devastation. Israel has bombing Lebanon's Al-Shahabia town.
00:27We'll try and understand what was the civilian population level, especially at this location.
00:34But destruction and devastation are for all to see. We can see also vehicles that were found
00:39charred, buildings broken. Now, Lebanon has become the focus point because according to America and
00:45Israel, that Lebanon was not in the ceasefire plan. Iran claims that it was definitely mentioned in
00:52the ceasefire plan and therefore it was accepted. Remember, it's a catch-22 for Iran as well because
00:57Lebanon, or specifically Hezbollah, the proxy group that Iran supports, has been with them in striking
01:03Israel all this while. So it looks like that Iran could have approved a ceasefire deal without
01:09Lebanon being added to it. So they are claiming that there was Lebanon in the Israel-USA ceasefire plan.
01:16However, for now, look at the devastation that can be seen. The area where the Israeli missiles have struck,
01:23the devastation of the aftermath of the buildings broken, vehicles charred. We are not yet aware
01:29about the casualties of the civilians or if there were any specific military targets. So we'll wait for
01:35that clarity on that. But clearly, the devastation on the ground is for all to see.
