Israeli PM Netanyahu says ‘ceasefire with Iran will not include Hezbollah’

[0:00] and now i'd like to confirm that this is not the last war it is a step towards the path where we [0:10] need to achieve all our goals iran now is a weak country more than any time before iran now is [0:20] forced to open the strait of homers iran has abandoned all its goals and including the ceasefire [0:31] in lebanon at the time iran is very weak as i said and israel on the country is stronger than any time [0:42] before we worked at the beginning of the war hand in hand with our friend donald trump and the u.s [0:51] army in a campaign that is the biggest in the history of the middle east no one has witnessed [1:00] this before no one has seen such a partnership between israel and the u.s against our biggest [1:08] enemy this hasn't happened before at all [1:25] i'm bringing you a coverage of a statement that is being made by prime minister benjamin netanyahu this [1:30] is possibly one of the first statements that he's made since the ceasefire was announced between [1:35] the united states and iran in the brief part that we heard there we heard he referred to this as simply [1:42] a first step in the war against iran he said iran had abandoned all its goals including those in lebanon [1:51] let's listen in again for our deep friendship because the u.s and israel are the ones who will [2:01] change the face of the middle east we work together in order to put an end to any threat against the [2:08] state of israel and against the free world this mission is to be done through steps and through stages [2:16] and through goals we should have done that because the land rolls is there and without this iran could [2:30] be able to achieve the goal in having nuclear bomb and in producing more ballistic missiles to threat israel [2:40] we have put an end to this iran now is taken back to years and years back and until the moment we have [2:53] stopped the process of producing missiles this doesn't mean that we get rid finally of the threat [3:00] the threat is there but we stopped the factories who are used to produce these missiles iran cannot produce [3:08] new missiles new missiles now also we hate the nuclear program of iran and we have destroyed so many [3:16] nuclear facilities we have killed a lot of their scientists those who joined the others who were killed [3:26] last year still there are some of them in iran alive and as said by president trump uranium either [3:35] to give it up to give it up to take it all from iran or something else will happen we have targeted [3:43] the national guard process of saving money we destroyed the steel factories we destroyed the weapons factories [3:57] we destroyed we destroyed infrastructure we destroyed their navy we destroyed their ground forces we [4:05] destroyed the area forces we have done a lot and we have killed a lot of activists and we have proved that [4:13] we can hunt them at any place and at any time the leaders of this regime starting from khamenei the [4:22] dictator and all the leaders and siege are under the insistence of israel this insistence has been seen [4:33] by everyone in the middle east we are creating new alliances in the region i was keen to do that because [4:41] the ceasefire with iran will not include hezbollah we are continuing hitting hezbollah and today hezbollah [4:51] has suffered from the biggest strike against the location since the uh pager incident we have hit [5:02] locations hezbollah thought they are safe to the citizens of israel we promised you to restore back [5:11] the security there is a good security belt inside the lebanese territories in syria as well in gaza as well [5:19] we control more than 50 percent of gaza hamas are you watching arjazeera is 1722 gmt uh israel prime minister [5:28] binjimin netanyahu they're making a series of statements following the announcement of a ceasefire [5:34] between the united states and iran which is in its first fledgling hours and with a view to talks that [5:41] are expected to take place in islamaban in a few days it's on the back of a ceasefire which was presented [5:46] um by uh pakistan um prime minister netanyahu there making various um comments with regard to what [5:55] he sees as the achievements that israel has made uh with regard to the war in iran he said the us and [6:02] israel would also change the face of the middle east he said this was a mission through steps and stages [6:08] and various goals he said that the israel had helped to destroy iran's capacity for making nuclear bombs [6:16] and missiles he said we put an end to all of that he also talked about destroying weapons factories the [6:23] ground forces the navy of iran plus infrastructure we have proved paused proved that no one can hurt us [6:31] any more we're going to go to norode following developments from this in ramallah in the occupied west [6:37] bank this is um correct me if i'm wrong i think this is the first public statement that netanyahu has [6:42] made or at least the first televised one um that we have seen and quite clearly he is determined [6:47] to show that israel's involvement in this conflict with iran has had the results that he was anticipating [6:54] now you're absolutely right rob this is the first time we've seen the israeli prime minister [7:04] um give a video statement after the announcement of the ceasefire problem that netanyahu is facing is [7:12] that what he's saying while not new about changing the face of the middle east about the special [7:18] relationship with the u.s president about even strengthening alliances in the region that nobody [7:23] knows about um all of these things are in contrast to what israelis have already heard from the military [7:30] experts and from former intelligence officers that these claims about the destruction of half of [7:37] iran's stockpiles and of iran's ability to manufacture are not entirely accurate they also [7:44] still remember because it wasn't months ago it was just 40 some days ago that benjamin netanyahu [7:51] promised them a complete collapse of the regime and that hasn't happened that's exactly what [7:57] netanyahu is trying to run away from no thank you very much indeed no audio they're talking to us from
