8:34 am
role for the united states in uh in intelligence, uh, more so then is is generally known, and also the israeli lobbies that are so powerful the united states and biden has been a very large recipient of their donations over the years, and that's what's important to him, he wants to be re-elected, he doesn't care about human rights or international law, as i said, he could stop this today, simply tell netanyahu, not another... dying until he pulls all his uh soldiers out of uh gaza, stop spomming, and and ends the occupation. palestinian fighters keep putting stiff resistance to israely forces in gaza, as fighting on the ground rages on. the military wing of the
8:35 am
mos resistance movement says it has targeted a group of israeli soldiers in gaza city with mortars, the kassamb brigade says: it also shelled israeli armored vehicles there. meanwile fighting continued in the southern city of hanjunes where the palestinian islamic jihad movement says it's fighters hid in israeli merkava tank as well as a military bulldozer. israel has so far confirmed the killing of 243 of its troopers since the regime launched a ground invasion of gaza in late october. palestinian groups say the regime is intentionally hiding the real number of casualties among its forces to avoid the israeli public anger. the leader of the palestinian resistance moven hamas says israel and the us will not achieve through political means what they failed to accomplish through military aggression in gaza smilehenius statements came amid talks a
8:36 am
potential cease fire between hamas and israel. we've discussed this issue with our guests in our news review program. let's take a listen. welcome everyone to press tv's news review program where we get in depth in one of the days top stories. now the political bureau chief of the palestinian resistance movement, hamas says israeli regime and the us cannot achieve through politics what they fail to achieve through war, addressing a conference in the lebanese capital beirot through video conferencing. is small honey ad "the tel aviv regime continues committing the most heinous crimes against palestinians. he said residents of gaza are being killed, starved and displaced by israeli forces. hanya also highlighted israeli attacks on hospitals and humanitarian groups. he further lashed out at the united states for its complicity in
8:37 am
israel's crimes. however, he underlined the resistance front will continue to stand firm against israel's acts of aggression until all occupied territories are liberated. further praised palestinians for their resistance against israeli occupation. joining us now for the news review program is mattie press tv correspondent joining us out of bayrut and richard medhurst, journalist and commentator joining us from vienna. hello and i like to welcome you both to the program. obviously we're going to uh start with you uh, he had lot to say in that. beach, but if you could talk about the event, what took place, what the significance of it was and what was said, not just by mr. hania, but everyone involved that that stood out for you. well, of course there are significant place a daily b gatherings that palestine and in solidarity
8:38 am
with the palestinian people, but the biggest of course protest and the biggest uh say is basically for the battlefield it is what's going on with the resistance and how the resistance is basically um... bring its way on supporting the palestinian resistance from lebanon, we have also seen the palestinian resistance in the all cassum brigades themselves also taking part in more more action when it comes to launching of rockets from south lebanon, that also is very significant, but i think that the speech of honey is very important to be able to read basically what he's trying to say when it comes to this so-called truth that they're working towards, although... first, he he did mention that if hamas does show some flexibility, this means that it is only out of concern for palestine, for its people, for the lives of the civilians in gaza specifically, but he also said that what the israelis are doing is basically they're
8:39 am
dragging their feet to the truth, they're um on another planet that they have these issues where they're trying to get concessions from hamas and he warned the us and israel that they are not going to get. get through that type of diplomacy, what they couldn't get on the field through the military, and this also brings us back to the speeches of secretary general, said that it is basically now the battlefield that is basically making the action or it is the one that is drawing the road map for the resistance and what could take place even in these talks, hamas itself has also said that it will not accept the united states as media. here and this is what we're hearing also from many of the figures here in lebanon, they are also talking about the fact that the us is considered as complicit 100% and therefore it could not be mediator for any sort of peace talks or any sort of truth, and this is why they might be calling for a third party, and we are seeing
8:40 am
this grow more and more among the palestinian factions here, even those that are with the plo and with france shells. thank you mary, richard, welcome to the program there bud, now richard says: his exact quote, the israeli regime and the us cannot achieve through politics what they failed to achieve through this onslot, well he says through war, and um, i want to see how that resonates with you, i mean buse obviously is referring to not just slaughtering palestinian women and and children, but but more so the israelis and washington have really been at the same time slaughtering their own image in the eyes of the very few people that still thought they're out in the world trying to do something prudent for mankind. thanks for having me on the program uh, absolutely, this is a multiimensional war. when we talk about gaza uh we have to understand that there is a war. the israelis that they are prosecuting against uh civilians, but there is another
8:41 am
war, a real war between men and that is between the qassam brigades, between palestinian uh bet islamic jihad pij um the brigades and the israeli uh occupation and that and on both fronts the israelies are losing because when they're bombing civilians and starving civilians uh their image as you just alluded to um has been shredded it's gone out the window uh the there's no recovering from this for the israelites, no recovery whatsoever, and that's even if they had an image to begin with, and then on the battlefield, what did the israel say when when they began this offensive? they said they will wipe out hamas, they will wipe out hamas infrastructure and retrieve the hostages. let's look at this, we're in february now, have they wiped out hamas, not at all, have they wiped out hamas infrastructure, not at all, they could not even retrieve a single hostage through military means, so... this shows you not only the failure of the israelis, but the strength the resistance. the israelis cannot survive
8:42 am
24 hours without being airlifted weapons. hamas on the other hand and the resistance have built up such an excellent arsenal and such vast array of committed driven fighters uh that simply the israelis and americans cannot contend with, and so whatuh hania was alluding to is that uh, you guys lost on the battlefield, your image is treaded, so don't think that you're going to come around. now and start making demands in the uh uh the negotiations, you have no uh standing, you have moral standing or victories to talk about for you to come in and make demands. all right, thank you both for joining us, stay safe to both of you, that was press tv's matiam, solder joining us from the lebanese capital, beirot and richard metters joining us from vienna, and viewers, this brings us to the conclusion of this segment of your press tv's news review program, thank you for tuning in and goodbye for now. israeli forces

they argue that the intensification of this year's us south korean drills were further height. attention and increase the risk of conflict with the dprk. for press steve corin and franks with reports from the south green capital. the us and south korea wednesday announced they will conduct large-scale joint military drills beginning next week to run for 11 days. the us said the drills are routine. these exercises, they're nothing do. these are the same exercises that we've been doing for decades. the drills have previously been suspended to improve relations. with the dprk, but current south green presidentul has resumed the drills as part of a hardline policy against pyongyang, which is opposed by many south koreans. administration and the u.s. south korea, japan alliance must immediately cease all hostile military actions on and around the korean peninsula and resume the korean peninsula peace process
8:51 am
by withdrawing its hostile policy toward north korea. activists warn military exercises can also generate miscalculations and accidents. isn't military training itself preparing for war because we are aware of the danger that may occur. we are opposed to military training because such training conduct. in our country could lead to a crisis that could even lead to a war if we make a mistake. south korea had at least two missile failures under president new with one rocket crashing near a residential area. much the southgreen public appears not to worry about the dprk and the security risk the provocative u.s. south korea drills involve, but it is there in the back of everyone's minds. this feeling of risk of conflict with the dp. even causes south korean stocks to be undervalued, so-called korea discount. in the past two years especially, the us and south
8:52 am
korea have increased the number and scale of weapons deployed to the korean peninsula, including nuclear capable planes and ships. activists call for dialogue. hostile policies against north korea and armed protest only deepen the vicious cycle and can never be solution. peace. through force is fiction, negotiations and improved relations for peaceful coexistence are the only realistic and correct ways to resolve the issue. the us has said it will negotiate with pyongyang without conditions, yet stipulating us-led un sanctions over the dprk's nuclear and missile programs must remain. frank smith, press tv. soul. well, the leadies and gentlemen, we're interrupting uh the normal course of programming right now to go. live, i believe, to the iran space research institute, where our correspondent, farzan ashun is standing by to give us the latest updates says uh,
