[00:00:00]Meanwhile, two senior far-right Israeli ministers have called for an escalation of military operations in Lebanon. It's a direct violation of the ongoing ceasefire deal that was extended last week between the two countries. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called for strikes on Beirut to counter Hezbollah's drone attack saying for every for every explosive drone he said 10 buildings must fall in Beirut. While the national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir called for a return to quote unquote an intense war. He posted on X, "It's time for the prime minister to bang on Trump's table and inform him that we are returning to war in Lebanon.

[00:00:36]We need to cut off the electricity in Lebanon, conquer Dahiya, and return to intense war."
