the, the, you're watching data we can use live from the lean is riley, lead is considered their response to you. ron's unprecedented me style and try and attack its allies, prepared new sanctions targeting, tie, ron, as well as late as pushing both sides for restraints. also on the program, felice and protest is clashing georgia's capital tbilisi up to the ruling policy pushes through legislation that critics say tend is to apply to me person and put the georgia 3 to join the do in jeopardy. the

i'm jared raid, welcome to the program. the united states says it's preparing new sanctions on a ron off to read to me style and drawing a tax on israel last weekend. they used to is it's planning to do the same. a 2 day latest summit begin slice it today in brussels, where the escalation in the middle east will be a key focus. meantime, it's rouse and military has displayed what it says is part of and a rainy and ballistic me, sol retrieved from the did see. following the strike, it says iran launched $110.00, ballistic me south towards israel at the weekend. in addition to hundreds of drawings and medium range missiles, most were shot down around says it's attack was in retaliation for what it says was . israel strikes on a no rainy and can see the building in syria, as well as his route considers its response to ron's attack and continues to fight

war against how mos in gaza. they're off. fee is over with these regional tensions code head. it's a complex part of the world with many rifles by political and religious vying for influence is rouse native of jordan and regional, heavy white in saudi arabia, both paid to help defend israel from the ron's miss solves to the surprise of many . both countries are involved in a complicated balancing act, making it difficult to predict their future actions. when the drones and missiles from a run came flying towards israel, many of them passed through jordan's space. not only did the arab kingdom help shoot them down, it also opened its s base to his riley and us planes seeking to intercept the amount insist that was strictly to protect his own citizens. but jordans, king of della has to balance competing interests. jordan is pro western and likes

to keep in step with his allies, especially the united states, plus jordan. she has a loan boda with israel and once peaceful relations. a mine of the works behind the scenes with these riley authorities. but israel is war and gaza has outraged many jordanians. one 5th of the population is of palestinian descent, including king of done as a wife. the government has vociferously condemned to the rule, but the kingdoms perceive defense of israel in the face of been rainy and miss silas has an good many jordan's powerful neighbors, saudi arabia also faces a difficult balancing act. the sunni kingdom views she, i'd run as its biggest regional rival, but last year it re established relations with to run both the saudis and the united arab emirates have sought to improve to wise with iran and israel flash,

who was prior to isabel's intervention and goes it saudi crown prince mohammed been so mind looks boys to sign a deal with the us, where the kingdom might have recognized israel in return for security guarantees from washington. but off to 6 months of war and gaza on tens of thousands of palestinians dead dots of the table. for now, still are the officials say both the saudis, on the amorous shed intelligence with the americans warning that iran was planning an attack on israel. that probably allowed for a most successful defensive response by israel on this ice. the challenge for our leaders is to keep the us on side well, not endangering the delicate relationship with iran or being seen by their own people, supporting israel at the expense of public opinions and gonna say well, earlier i spoke with hans young coverage in the form that diplomat,

it had all of the global policies, think tank account extremism project. you told me more about the role of arab nations in this conflict between the israel and the ron. you know, this is really a moment where israel can build a very strong correlation against the wrong. in the last couple of years, what we have seen is really around expanding. it's influenced by a proxies throughout the region is by is much bigger than it used to be the quotes . these are definitely paid far more active than they used to be. iraq is essentially having a problem with domination from terror on syria in the us, i presume, in the hands really at the behest of jet on because together with the russians, they help save the country and it has of course i found a new found. so regional power of russia as the top. so yvonne has really been able to position itself in the region, pushing back against the rest and industry, the support. so it is now a chance because a expanded rain in friends is not in the interest of either one of the other arab

states. neither u i. e, no saudi arabia or egypt, or jordan, would like to see a middle east dominated by iraq. so this is really a chance i'm that jordan really defend itself and israel, it wasn't all that much of a surprise because jordan has the longest, the 2nd longest peace treaty after egypt with his route. their real surprise was saudi arabia to a certain extent, fox discreetly over the last couple of months. the men ever that with these tried to shoot the rockets. and besides not only add commerce and shipping, but many tried to shoot those into israel. sorry, baby has been very helpful. not only in providing great opt out, but also shooting down some of those. right. and you're saying israel is using the opportunity in your the beginning of your answer to, to build a strong coalition of density. ron, some people are calling this

a new arab israel axis. would you agree with this description by some of this? and we went on twice. yeah, that's. so there is a correlation to defend against the reunion besides already in place. but what i'm saying is, this is a chance for this round took the pet coordination, but i did, of course, also depend to a certain extent on what these really reaction is going to be. i don't think from an x ray perspective, there is any other choice to respond back to you. i've seen the numerous war cabinet meetings over hours and hours liberating. what are the options? what can be done? what would be an appropriate response? back to a certain extent, re establish that the terms that iran is not going to attack israel now continuously in the next couple of months. but also it doesn't exacerbate the situation to base them, but the sliding into a reasonable and as you say, everyone is waiting to see how israel exactly does respond. do you think these are

of nations would help israel again if it were to strike back against iran and provoke another account? it's a counter attack by tyre on, is now being israel in an offensive operation. i think this is a lot to ask, even the us government seems to have made clear that they are not going to be supportive. often it's rarely strike on here on itself. that 1000 and extend to is really as strikes on these one are, which is also a clear to go to that, to israel already in motion because you know, more than 80000 history. these have not been living in the north of israel since october. and the arsenal of his small lot is very vast. the trying to warn his re lease many is bought out by us missile is much shorter than it was from the wrong. and is what i x at the behest of yvonne. so this is one of the options, and with this option, i don't think any of the arab states would have an issue. i'm looking at what

happened in 2006 where israel attacked his plot or in a situation where just bought, i had taken hostages and killed them and diminished really it's infrastructure in living on iran. so we have action was simply passwords and then they rebuild his pull afterwards. but then i would assume that if these bar info structure, especially it's michelle arsenal, is significantly degraded by as well. neither the up stage would have a problem with they know of what the rate iran necessarily to react to this. and of course, if there is another stripe altogether on israel, i would assume that the likelihood is very, very high. that out of states are going to again come to the aid of as well. i just wanted to ask and finally, what do you think these old names for the future of israel is war against how mos in gaza? you know, 3 ah, now at a very complex situation, really,

it's the different issue is that is where it has to sort out at the same time. of course, primarily that is still the issue that how much is in gaza. and as soon as these really troops had withdrawn from con, numerous, how must operate tips where they immediately afterwards trying to, you know, put their version of flowing order again in place. so how much is not defeated in gaza at this point? this needs to be done. i must be, can not be allowed after all from live there. i talk to survive as a terror concern in because i'm not in the is induced or israel, but not in the interest of everyone else. i just remind everyone we did arrest. i'm up stairs at the end of the year here in germany and in the netherlands that tried to attack germany and europe. in fact, i'm 2nd problem, of course is the ongoing shooting war with this paula, actually on the best will be around proximately on its own b. s. and this is a real drug store too, as well, on the databases. and that, that is just your teaching for that,

that the wrong pauses. so not only the direct albany rang and aerial attack again at these proportions that they have seen down the line at the next opportunity get they get. but also, they're, you know, mean they are low, mean a new care program that was hands yak, option low with the counter extremism project. thank you very much for your insights and your time. we really appreciate it. thank you so much. is a quick round up now of some of the world news headlines. these rouse me. latree has released 4 digit claims. so strikes that killed 3 members of his belong, militant group and lab, and on is ralph is one of the dad was a combined involved in planning rocket, an anti tank mishondra tax on its territory, israel and has, has below. i have regularly traded fire since the beginning of the war and casa, as a spikes person for me on most military governments is the time formulator on song . sushi has been moved from prison to house arrest. the jury was imprisoned,
