"The Greater I$rael project openly backed by Benjamin Netanyahu is no conspiracy theory. Earlier this week settlers crossed into Lebanese territory demanding the seizure and occupation of land. Uri Tzafon may be seen as a fringe group but its agenda echoes that of the queen of illegal settlements Daniella Weiss and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich amplified by rabbis providing religious justification. Thursdays incursion comes amid talk of a so-called Trump Economic Zone in south Lebanon a Gaza [---] by another name. Our report from the ground."

"Kuwait appears to have added eight Lebanese hospitals to a terror list - while its not confirmed the news is also being reported by credible Gulf media organisations so its not simply internet chatter. On Friday we filmed at the Salah Ghandour Hospital in Bint Jbeil (will be broadcast soon) after it was threatened by I$rael claiming in leaflets dropped in the locality that it was a terror hub treating fighters. We were last at the hospital when it was struck during the war; now it has been rebuilt and as a former medic what I saw was a normal civilian hospital with functioning departments"
