00:01I'm currently in yet another locality, yet another settlement of Northern Israel, where the Lebanese
00:08border is only few meters away. And in fact, this is the reality of this area where there are
00:14thundering sounds of the artillery fire or the shelling in this region. And in fact, the rockets
00:20are continuously being fired in this region. And that is the reason, that is why Israel Defense
00:27forces are not agreeing, not readying to stop their operation against the Southern Lebanese
00:32territory, against Hezbollah. And in fact, this is the reason why many people in this locality have
00:38abandoned their houses. They are not living here. And in fact, they have vacated these houses,
00:44this area. And in fact, we have got this report that recently there was a rocket fire. There was
00:50an attack in this region. And in fact, one of the rocket fell in this very area where you can
00:55see
00:55these bands. And this is the area you can very well see. Here, a rocket fell. And in fact,
01:07the rocket came not from a very far territory. As you can see, the hill on the other side
01:15is the Lebanese territory. In fact, that is the area where the Hezbollah operates. And in fact,
01:20they keep firing those rockets. And I can see a piece of that rocket, piece of that thing,
01:29which actually penetrated this road. And in fact, the kind of crater it created,
01:36you can very well see, this is the rocket. And you can see how this rocket is. It fell here.
01:43And you can see that is the damage, these scars. And that is the reason many, many people have
01:51vacated this area. There are only few people in the region in this area, and especially those who
01:58work in these farms or they are just the caretakers. Many of the residents have left these areas,
02:04these houses. And you can see that this heavy metal has actually penetrated. This has created this much
02:11of impact at this place. This is the reality. You can hear the thundering and pounding sounds
02:17around everywhere. In fact, the artillery shelling or firing by the IDF. And in fact,
02:23that is why IDF is saying that in last 40 days, they have tried to eliminate the threat of Hezbollah.
02:30And, you know, the attacks coming from their territory and their side. And that is why
02:35Israel is not agreeing, not getting ready to stop its operation against Hezbollah. And in fact,
02:42this is the reason why IDF is claiming that any ceasefire, if extended in the Lebanese territory
02:48against Hezbollah, won't be acceptable to them. Because this is the reason why they cannot let Hezbollah
02:55keep weapons, keep armed. And in fact, that is the reason why they are carrying out those
03:01operations. In the last 40 days, as per IDF, they have eliminated around 1,400 terrorists from
03:08Hezbollah. And in fact, they have targeted 4,300 hideouts, 4,300 Hezbollah-related establishments
03:16in their places. And in fact, in the last 24 hours as well, they have targeted 150 Hezbollah terrorists.
03:24And in fact, that is the reason why this entire ceasefire process remains jeopardized. Because
03:32neither Israel is accepting the ceasefire extension in the Lebanese territory, nor Iran is accepting that
03:42it should not be extended to the Lebanese territory. And in fact, rather, the Iranian side is insisting
03:47that ceasefire in West Asia should be implemented in lieutenant spirit. And the ceasefire or cessation
03:53of IDF's operation against Hezbollah need to be implemented. But this remains a reality. And this is the
04:01reason why Israeli Defense Forces are carrying out their operations against Hezbollah. Because they think
04:06that the Lebanon government and Lebanon army is not capable enough to carry out those operations to
04:12disarm Hezbollah. Pranayipadhyay reporting from the Border Areas of Israel for India Today.
