00:00:00kilometers inside Lebanon, this comes as Salam continues to
00:00:03talk, at least on the surface about Israeli withdrawal,
00:00:07seemingly in contradiction with the reality on the
00:00:09ground. Your priorities will remain our
00:00:14and we ask priorities, stopping the Israeli attacks, Israel's complete withdrawal from our
00:00:17territory, and the safe and dignified return of people to their
00:00:21homes. Now the eighth round of talks between Lebanon and Israel is planned
00:00:25for later this month with some saying they will take place in Florida, but months of
00:00:29negotiations. so far produced little concrete change for the people of the
00:00:32south. Israel remains inside Lebanon and is expanding
00:00:36its presence while escalating its attacks as noted by uniful
00:00:39observers. hundreds have been killed since the latest opposed
00:00:42ceasefire. cease fire is something which Israel has never really added
00:00:46to. talks about reconstruction seem unrealistic while
00:00:49Israeli destruction continues. so the key question now is whether
00:00:53the negotiations can produce something tangible, that is
00:00:57an end to the attacks and an Israeli withdrawal. All the
00:01:01evidence on the ground suggest that in reality this is something of a
00:01:04distant hope. This is Steve
00:01:06work and I just arrived Sweenie for
00:01:11My whole body is broken from beautiful feeling that cannot be described. We have been RTA, Southern Nabatieh. From Nabatieh to The war started. We sang to Lebanon. This is RC International, the news and analysis from
00:01:13Jisr al-Qa'qaiyah. To Nabatieh from across the globe and I'll be back with more
00:01:14al-Khalidiya to in about 30 minutes. You stay with us.
00:01:19and livelihoods. This
00:01:24to know if you'll go to the renovations, with the
00:01:31trucks and your
00:01:37destruction,
00:02:02Bonjour, bonjour, my friend, how are you? I hope everything is fine. Today
00:02:06is the last day of the ceasefire agreement
00:02:10between the agreement that the Lebanese state made with the
00:02:13Israeli enemy.
00:02:20So, God willing, we'll see. The whole world is waiting, and we are waiting to see what the situation
00:02:23will be. What will happen? But most likely, God willing, things are going
00:02:27for the better and for the best. God willing, there will be calm. And there will be no
00:02:31escalation. And let's see how things are going. Everyone
00:02:34is waiting for God.
00:02:53Ali runs a small construction firm. Every
00:02:57morning, he starts with the news. For him, it's a matter of
00:03:01survival.
00:03:09For the past three years, the conflict between Lebanon and Israel has
00:03:13flared up and died down without
00:03:15warning.
00:03:18Now the daily lives of millions of Lebanese depend on the
00:03:22whims of
00:03:22politicians.
00:04:34Therefore, this
00:04:40close to the yellow
00:04:41humanity and all of line. That's what the Israelis call the
00:04:45buffer zone. It extends up to 10
00:04:48kilometers into Lebanese territory.
00:05:00used to work on
00:05:03They claim the line is intended to prevent attacks and
00:05:06destroy Hezbollah infrastructure.
00:05:10In reality, however, civilians avoid.
00:05:46The Lebanese have experienced two wars since
00:05:492023. Each time the conflict ended with the
00:05:52signing of an agreement that promised enduring and lasting peace.
00:06:14The war is rockets from Faghani. We entered.
00:06:17We stayed. Goats. Yes, we were in this village.
00:06:27al-Maqdush. It stopped. Then we came back here.
00:07:14Living by the yellow line is quite an ordeal, only the brave
00:07:18return to their homes, where children used to run
00:07:21around, now only herds of sheep rome.
00:07:45By God, my brother Mahdi, before the war, we used to work
00:07:49and build buildings. Now after the war, we are working on demolishing
00:07:52البنايات
00:07:55This building and that building, we are now demolishing them completely.
00:07:59So where are we going? No one knows.
00:08:01Their owners are heartbroken. What do they want to do? They are sitting. What do they want
00:08:05to do? They are watching these buildings being demolished in front of them.
00:08:09Before the war, we used to build, and after the war, we are now demolishing.
00:08:23I am the advanced priest Philip Habib
00:08:26Al-Aqla, servant of the parish of Jadideh
00:08:30Marjayoun, Al-Buwaydah, Dibbin, Balat for the Greek
00:08:33Orthodox. There is, of course, we are in an area
00:08:37called the red zone, and it is
00:08:40an area in direct contact.
00:08:43The Israelis are
00:08:47I am teaching
00:08:50I am teaching in the book
00:08:53to students, and they are not present in our class,
00:08:56and the reason is that
00:08:59the red zone where the area is subjected
00:09:02to shelling
00:09:04and and fire,
00:09:07and therefore most of our students
00:09:11left outside the area
00:09:14and were displaced to other areas because
00:09:17of the war. Therefore, we
00:09:21teach our children, we teach them through
00:09:23online.
00:09:30You are still in the Diocese of
00:09:33Jadideh Marjayoun for the Greek Orthodox, which
00:09:37has the Orthodox school that was built by
00:09:41the association.
00:09:46beautiful circular shape
00:09:50and the arches present here indicate
00:09:53that the good Russian imprints
00:09:56were placed in this area and in this Orthodox
00:10:00middle school for the Greek
00:10:02Orthodox.
00:10:54renewed.
00:10:57You have Israel sitting and
00:11:00following and waiting and monitoring any
00:11:03missile that falls from Iran on Israel. There is a very high probability that the war will be renewed here
00:11:07in Lebanon.
00:12:26They say Netanyahu will meet with Trump today at
00:12:307. Is it possible for something to happen here in Sidon? Yes, today at
00:12:346 PM there is a meeting. By God, my
00:12:37father, the situation does not reassure people. People are scared
00:12:41and
00:12:44people are terrified, meaning people are in a state of confusion, and they don't know whether to
00:12:47stay or leave, you know
00:12:50what I mean? So I prefer that we
00:12:54wait. And tell your sisters and so on that
00:12:57our hearts cannot bear it, meaning if there is shelling, the first strike, you should immediately
00:13:01keep your bags
00:13:01ready.
00:13:08We should not remain unprepared, and we should remain prepared
00:13:12to flee, to flee and escape
00:13:15because many people are killed, and whoever dies is gone.
00:13:19Nothing is clear. Come on, and now
00:13:22those who are dying are dying for nothing. We don't know if the situation is going towards calm or
00:13:26war.
00:13:28Come on, what else can you do? This
00:13:32is our life. God has decreed that we live in the South, and our life
00:13:35has been like this since we were born.
00:13:38And we got used to it.
00:13:41take a fresh look around at life colydoscopic isn't
00:13:44it a shattered reality distorted by
00:13:48power tired vision with no real
00:13:52opinions
00:13:54picture. was designed to simplify or confuse,
00:13:58who really wants a better world, and is it just for
00:14:01the chosen few?
00:14:04fractured images presented as fact, can you see
00:14:07through their illusions? going underground can,
00:14:22we need to counter the Russian state.
00:14:59And thank you all for your loyalty and support.
00:15:18attempts to establish a complete cease fire in Lebanon met with
00:15:21failure. Still, diplomats decided to test
00:15:25fragile formula in the village of Zatar al Gabia.
00:15:28These uniform men are members of the Lebanese army. They've been
00:15:32tasked with disarming Hezbollah soldiers and ensuring the
00:15:35return of civilians.
00:16:25Brothers, please, for God's sake, I understand you. He told you it's burned, but please,
00:16:29move back a little from the checkpoint. Come on, let the cars
00:16:32in. The cars, by God.
00:16:36Come on, do something.
00:16:42It's a very, very
00:16:45waiting for this feeling for five months. We have suffered
00:16:49injustice and oppression. We have suffered the loss of
00:16:52our children. We have suffered the loss of our homes
00:16:57pin means a lot to me because this is my heart, this
00:17:01is my son. This is a resistance fighter, a resistance fighter in Hezbollah.
00:17:04An Islamic resistance. He remained in his place
00:17:08and was martyred and sacrificed his blood for his land
00:17:12and for the liberation of this land
00:17:15and for all of Lebanon to live with dignity
00:17:18and honor, not for a specific person or a specific sect.
00:17:22We are defending all of Lebanon's land, and we are proud
00:17:25of our martyrs, and we are proud of our martyrs.
00:17:28And praise be to God, their blood has begun to bear fruit.
00:17:31Victory.
00:17:43We've been waiting for a long time to enter. This entry. Now, there is a feeling of
00:17:47victory that we enter at our leisure
00:17:50as we please. But thank God, we are happy that we can enter
00:17:54and see what our homes are like, what the village
00:17:58is like. Let's smell it a little, see it, feel it, I mean.
00:18:02Just.
00:19:10Look, we put it on him.
00:19:31Sacrifice for the sake of the resistance. Sacrifice for the sake of the most sacred martyr,
00:19:35Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah.
00:19:46so the destruction is massive,
00:19:49but you hear everywhere, so you ask the
00:19:52people, you here we are with the
00:19:54resistant, and we are not going to
00:19:58change our mind just because of this unhuman
00:20:02actions
00:20:05of Israeli of. army and
00:20:09the Israel policy buse is
00:20:12policy it's don't mean to to them
00:20:15nothing all of the
00:20:19the human
00:20:20rights
00:20:23they just need to take power of the
00:20:27region and take the people
00:20:30to to live as a slave under their
00:20:34rules.
00:20:39People hoped to return to their homes, but all they found upon
00:20:43arrival were ruins. Bewildered, they
00:20:46wandered among the rubble, having retrieved few...
00:21:00We have a monastery here called Our Lady
00:21:03of the Annunciation, Zawtar Al-Gharbi. Of course, we entered
00:21:06and saw a lot of destruction. We saw a lot of devastation,
00:21:09unfortunately. And here, we go back to the idea of the Jew
00:21:13or the Israeli, that he does not differentiate between a monastery
00:21:16or a church or a mosque, you know. Important.
00:21:20That he achieves what he desires and what he wants.
00:21:23And this is unfortunately
00:21:25what we mean.
00:21:29After the 2006 war, when it was
00:21:33rebuilt, we came back in 2024 and we had
00:21:36some more destruction. We rebuilt
00:21:39and now we need to rebuild again, and now the percentage has increased significantly
00:21:43more. So
00:21:46continuity is always our motto. We despair.
00:22:27the people are still working.
00:22:29What do you want
00:22:34to put?
00:22:34He and Khaled, focus with me here. We need to
00:22:38wallpaper them, but focus, Khaled, for sure. And here we need
00:22:41to make them 100%. Come and see them.
00:23:00far from calm, but despite all the warnings,
00:23:03some brave souls have started to repair the damaged
00:23:06buildings,
00:23:31the owner of this building
00:23:35is a brave man who took a courageous stance. I testify to his
00:23:38stance. I mean, we started building this building
00:23:42before the war. But when the truce happened, he immediately
00:23:46called me and told me that he wanted to continue working to encourage.
00:23:56If the war started again, and now there will be some loss
00:24:00for me, I have no problem. I want to get into this issue and work and continue.
00:25:22That's why we decided to keep
00:25:25praying and keep standing firm in this town.
00:25:40After the dome of the church
00:25:43was hit by a rocket,
00:25:46the dome was damaged and the bell, which
00:25:50electricity, was damaged. We insist on ringing
00:25:54the bells so that
00:25:57everyone knows that our bells will continue
00:26:00to ring for prayer.
00:26:02And to raise them for the establishment of peace throughout
00:26:06Lebanon and the whole world. This is our message from the
00:26:10Orthodox Church in Jadideh Marjayoun. We are preachers
00:26:13of peace, preachers of love,
00:26:16everyone to adhere to all
00:26:19legal and international values and principles. Our church
00:26:23always prays and loves
00:26:26peace. Pray for us so that
00:26:29peace may be spread.
00:26:32Among us and throughout the world.
00:27:01Yes, my friend. My dear, how are you? I hope everything is
00:27:04fine. Yes, by God, I just finished
00:27:09home. Yes, by God, thank God we worked today, but I'm very tired.
00:27:14exhaustion. But when you sit down to follow
00:27:16these news, your spirits get tired. Oh, my friend,
00:27:20physical exhaustion is easy, but you have to
00:27:23keep following to see what's happening
00:27:27work normally tomorrow morning or if you'll have to go back and hide
00:27:30your excavators and remove your
00:27:34heavy machinery from the area because the situation is still not
00:27:38stable at all. We keep following up constantly, my friend, how beautiful physical exhaustion is compared to mental
00:27:41exhaustion.
00:29:34"I think that this hegemonic
00:29:37kind of mindset is deeply
00:29:40and within Donald Trump's
00:29:42personality. He think that the American of course is
00:29:46is is still the the greatest most powerful country on the
00:29:50planet and and the United States according to
00:29:54his him and his followers has been short
00:29:57changed byen by his allies so it's
00:30:00now um incumbent. need to change
00:30:03that uh by maximizing American's dominance.
00:30:20Donald Trump announces there's an energy cease fire between Moscow
00:30:24and Kiev just today after saying Ukraine needs a new leader.
00:30:28While Russia has yet to comment, Vladimir Zelensky is caught by surprise, saying
00:30:31Kief will agree. if Moscow does the
00:30:33same.
00:30:36Saudi defenses intercept another cruise missile near
00:30:39Riyad's main airport. That's after the futhis warn against anyone
00:30:43using Saudi airspace following their devastating strike on the airport
00:30:47which left 12 people dead and more than 300 wounded.
00:30:50If he's confirmed to see they were behind the
00:30:53attack. These attacks are yemeny attacks.
00:30:56We do not do this out of revenge or to take vengeance but rather.
