6:04 pm
on israel. some a, it was just over 2 hours ago now that the latest wave of israel, of a right in miss solves entities, riley space estimates. now in about $20.00 to $25.00 missiles were fired and there were full reports of at least 4 impact sites. one of those, at least one of those, again, in the port city of high for a building called the sale tower was hate. it seems. and this is a government district center with government administrative offices and it to the reports of 17 people who were to adjusting to high but 3 of them seriously. 20 wounded across the country. um, we're hearing a one woman has died now after having a heart attack in one of the shelters following this latest raid. and these riley saying that they believe one of the messiah's that was targeted on the south actually contained cluster munitions. this the 2nd time they've said one of them is
6:05 pm
off plus the munitions and the saying that because there was a wide at marius. why the area of damage from ms. solid. when plus the messiahs explode, detonate, they send small. lemme styles around about an 8 kilometer radius of the target area, as they, as a defense of the grounds that are also much harder for israel defenses to intersect as they pull to the ground at a lower out to choose something and button it always seeing these rainy rhetoric now hauled and then even further with the national security administrative come up and give a, a, talking about, hey, regime, a knack of psyche and we've also had the israel kept saying that he's ordering the defense ministry minister ordering israel's military to increase a tax on regime talk is going to around in order to undermine the regime. he says, israel must bring about the widespread evacuation of the population from say around
6:06 pm
in order to undermine the regime. we have heard benjamin netanyahu say earlier in this week the regime change was not the objective of this war, but it might be a consequence of its well as well counts on the who is a bit of an attack dog now. so these really government making much louder claims about that desire to see regime change. we're pointing out as well as these ready to go from just trying to protect an image of normality and is riley reduce the threat level a couple of days ago from essential to limits. a meeting shots and businesses could reopen. why that was shelters on the could be gatherings of up to 30 people. but today we thought the main shipping organization mask stopping deliveries to high for pool because of the risk fedex also stopping deliveries to israel. so there is still considerable risk that. all right, thanks so much button. it's miss that line from my mind. let's go to talk. have a city he's in the rainy and capital to her on. so we know the following list,
6:07 pm
the saying he's not going to geneva to negotiate. what is he going the to do then the not well actually based found lovely hairs from the rain, new pharmacy, or box or off the he said that he's not there to negotiate. but he's there out a request to europe inside, and he's there to listen to what they are saying. and of course it goes without saying that at this time being we've got this phone message that to ron price can be and that it's not going to close the door of diplomacy. while it's saying that while the countries andras frag, it's not going to negotiate. but and the country including americans, including east 3 and not a cars for you is always on the bill. we're dealing with a, into a good situation. and we see the continuation of use really start as far as targeting different places from time to time. be her different reports in this regard and on that context of waning offices, including the pharmacy himself,
6:08 pm
are saying that the country is not going to get engaged in negotiations as long as the discharge continue. also be heard from the uranium pharmacy are about to offer you today that the wrong sees it as it slides to defend itself. and in that regard, also we heard a very recent statement from the rainy an i r g c, saying that they have started a 7 teens wave of deer and we saw the tax and throwing a tax targeting issue of the chargers and talking about the strikes what are we hearing from a reading, the officials both about the, the strikes by a rain in miss halls in israel as well as is riley strikes in iran. oh sammy from. but i can say escalation is the name of the game. that's because he has a reality on the ground today. we heard the report from different cities shift from from boss, from uh, let's say
6:09 pm
a bu share from she rides they've got supports. some of them confirm some not about targeting different places into sherbie saw if force about the activation of the air defense system is issue, rossi, sauce reports about, sorry, be places being targeted by these really as far as the go over to the un security council of the us and by sort of speaking let's listen to it as he did, we called for israel's destruction and for as i and i quote death to america. they have launched direct and proxy attacks on is rarely civilians including most recently on southern israel's largest hospital. and just recently in the last couple hours on hyphen, israel's government has also spread chaos, terror, and suffering throughout the region. runs government has also spread chaos tear and suffering throughout the region. let us not forget that the iranian
6:10 pm
government was an enabling and indeed a logical material force behind him. mazda is deadly assault on israel. in october 2023, and it twice attacked israel last year with hundreds of ballistic missiles. the iranian government also encouraged it's terrorist proxy, his bola, to open a northern front from lebanon, and enabled who's the rebels in the admin to become administered, global trade and freedom of navigation, and to launch long range missiles endangering civilians and israel. in january 2024, a drone attack from an iran back to terrorist group on a u. s. military facility in jordan killed 3 americans. service members. enough is enough. the president, as the leaders from the group of 7 stated earlier this week, iran is the principal source of instability and here in the middle east,
6:11 pm
the g 7 also reaffirm the right of israel to defend itself. while the united states was not involved in israel strikes, let there be no doubt that the united states continues to stand with israel and supports its actions against it runs nuclear ambitions. and runs leaders could have avoided this conflict, had they agreed to a deal that would have prevented them from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon. but they refused to do so. choosing instead to delay and deny we can no longer ignore that. iran has all that, it needs to achieve a nuclear weapon. all it needs is a decision from their supreme leader. that is unacceptable, and this council must bridge them to change course. the government over run has nothing to gain by escalating their rhetoric toward the i a launching missiles and
6:12 pm
civilians threatening neighbors for pursuing nuclear weapons. for too long they have prioritized terrorism and their nuclear program above the wellbeing of their own people. their resulting weakness is now on full display for the entire world. the iranian government must abandon its nuclear ambitions, so that there is no more destruction shoes instead, prosperity for their people. thank you man and president. i time to representative of the united states for her statement that i give the store to the representative of panama. gotcha. so you'll have it as you a settled almost. yeah. the wrong has all it needs to obtain a nuclear weapon that was bad for us. and by so the to the security council
6:13 pm
addressing this meeting talking, condemning around in strong terms of talking about the resulting weakness is on full display for the will to see. accusing iran of twice attacking israel last year with ballistic missiles and talking about iran endangering civilians. no mention that or of course of the fact that those attacks last year followed is really a tax on a ron a, the secretary general antonia with that as told the main thing that diplomacy is needed to build trust between the policies. you also uh, sold signs to give peace, a chance to avoid potential chaos is repeatedly stated that it is not seeking nuclear weapons. but let's recognize that is a task gap. the only way to bridge that gift is through the plumber see, to establish a could i have the boat company,
6:14 pm
n c boat and verifiable solution including full excess to inspect terms of i a as the united nations technical agency in this field for all of that to be possible, i appeal for the and then to the findings and 3 to 2 cities. negotiations. let's go announce gabriel. that is under his live for us as the united nations headquarters in new york. so gave, we've seen a number of speeches, so fall, take us through the yeah, that's right. you to start from the secretary general, they're saying calling for an end to the fighting and then return to serious negotiations. and what we've heard from several council members that have spoken in the last hour or so out, jerry, a, china of pakistan, russia to name a few. they are all saying and their messaging that there were serious negotiations that were about to take place in the 6th round of talks between the united states
6:15 pm
and the ran on the nuclear issue that we're essentially d railed by israel's strikes on. you ran about a week ago, that's what we heard from many member states that have been speaking talking about how condemning israel's continued attacks on a rainy nuclear sites in violation of international law. of course, you heard a different message there from the us charge the affair. dorothy shay, who's essentially the ambassador until they get an ambassador in that role for the united states. she has, of course, had different messaging as you correctly point out saying that this is all about iran and you runs alleged ambitions, nuclear ambitions, that she said that the us wants to do the rail with israel. but she again repeated the claims you've heard from president trump in washington, saying that the united states was not in is not directly involved in israel's
6:16 pm
strikes on your on. and gabriel, given the position of the us, the power of the us and the security council doesn't mean ultimately any real action. and prevention is extremely unlikely as it is because of the veto power, that the 5 permanent members of the security council have in any resolution. if you will or draft resolution that were to go to a vote, if it was not agreeable by the united states, they could just simply vote, veto it, as we've seen in many guys a ceasefire resolutions over the past 20 months or so. i think the security council is certainly constrained in what they can do, but what they are doing right now is important. they have the power to hold these meetings that we've been seeing today. these emergency meetings and they are important because they can demand that rafael grass. go see the head of the i. e a, a dress the council with an update on the situation with the nuclear power plants
6:17 pm
in, in iraq. and they can get briefings from top to un officials on the situation. and that is important, important to keep pressure on as a try to get a stop to these the, the, the fighting if you will, and really hold pressure on israel as well as we heard from any security council members to stop what they've essentially started. well, i think so much gabriel ellis on the from the united nations new york, the wrong foreign ministers in geneva meeting with these count deposits from the u . k. fronts and german name, a land of a sudden the which is in geneva for us. so me like that, 1st of all, do we know how those talks are going? i think it's, it's been like an hour into them or something like that. about an hour or so saw me the depth of my so still meeting, we are getting 10. so from statements that the european diplomats may be full of
6:18 pm
the stalks. well, these a foreign ministers will be talking about. we heard from the german 4 and stuff audio on today that the own. this is only ron 2 and he's was renounced any enrichment of nuclear material which could lead to nuclear weapon eyes ation. now these nations u k. funds in gemini also wouldn't cause on the iranian ballistic missile program. now there is a 2 things that we do know. iran has already said they cannot and will not do one as we've already had. they said also they will not be negotiating while they are still under attack from israel. so it is hard to see what kind of progress can be made here in geneva to day on friday by the foreign ministers of these e. 3 nations as that cold found. gemini, the u. k. all hoping that previous involvement, deep involvement with august august 18, the 2015 ron e. v. a deal,
6:19 pm
the original one, the bomb that you are one that us present, donald trump pulled out. so in 2018 will give them some sort of credibility with a tack, ron, to, to be viewed as independent and trustworthy and intermediaries. but how successful that will be, what we still don't malayna. all right, we'll leave it there. thanks so much. and i have a son of a bitch. this is now con ross is a full cd. adverse use diplomat and founder of the non profit advisory group, independent diploma, joins us live from london. good to have you with us. so 1st of all, do we know what is the 3 carrying with the putting on the table at geneva today will certainly be bringing in some kind of plan to try to get the diplomacy going on the rocks and you play around with nuclear program to bring hostilities to an end about going back home, the president of problems has say exactly that,
6:20 pm
that they will be bringing a comprehensive plan the whether the question is whether they can get the wrong means to bite has that being, i mean, by what has there been any movement that we know about from either side on what we on the stands have been the stumbling block. the issue of you writing an enrichment of the correspondence as mentioned the wrong did agree to limit it from its uh uranium in richmond in 2016 and the time for sanctions release. the cycle j. c. p o a, a deal which the us under president trump withdrew from during his 1st administration . so iran has said that it has been willing to create some limits nuclear program substantially in return for. ready conceptions from the rest of the world of a function, so it's not inconceivable that such a deal would be available now. and of course, the rom off to these riley attack,
6:21 pm
isn't it significantly we could position that it was, and the course means the cabinet, your pens, get the iranians to engage and then take the whatever is discussed to the us in particular and see what whether the us is willing to engage with that a possibility. and of course the us have say it was interested in negotiation. it was conducting negotiations and to as well forced his time by launching these attacks. i'm just listening to that call and i'm wondering, isn't the real question. i mean, you, you've mentioned that iran has shown in the past. it's willing to limit the degree or the level of uranium enrichment. that's true, but that's precisely what the us seems now country to, to maybe early around indigo. sions absolutely. will not accept any degree of, of uranium enrichment. but how does the real question is, is your simply a messenger for the us or can it broke something different quickly on that issue of
6:22 pm
degree of uranium enrichment than what dumber from once. and what would that be any point anyway? cause don't trouble do what donald trump wants. a lot of, i think the, the, the europeans will be a messenger, but also i broke up in a box. i mean, the europeans definitely want a negotiated solution. they don't want a military solution. they don't want to solve penalties to continue. this is the negotiation officer who i mean basically us starting position is 0 nuclear programs 0 in richmond. yes, that may be very difficult to agree with the wrong and the wrong of this. now saying it one degree and i think i'm less is ready, a tex. stop. but you know, diplomacy is about talking and seeing if there's some middle position between the starting position. somebody then that route that out there wrong is really quite heavily incentivized to a degree something. now it doesn't, won't these rarely attacks to continue, potentially because the end,
6:23 pm
the end of the existence, the maintenance of the current very unpopular regime in iraq and the u. s. wants deal to, i mean, it's very clear from the politics and the us that us involved, but in the military attack would be very unpopular. we've become space. all right, we'll leave it there. thanks so much for your analysis of that con ross, a former british diplomat and as diplomatic efforts continue to try and diffuse the crisis between israel and the ron and the united states, the trump administration, while it's impose new sanctions and that the wrong some commercial entity ships and individuals have been targeted. let's go live now to our white house correspondent, kimberly how could so kimberly, we know iran is already under a lot of us sanctions. how significant all these well, according to the united states, a is the single largest action today against the iran back who sees now,
6:24 pm
what we know is this is specifically targeting those who help to finance the who sees operations as well as their group in general. now it is targeting for individuals 12 entities and 2 vessels. why are the individuals and entities being charged a targeted well is because the united states, the ledges that these individuals and entities are, are acting as products to facilitate the funding of the operation importing oil elicit goods and as a result through the sale of oil and commodities on the black market, that's where that revenue is being generated. now, in terms of the vessels, the 2 vessels, the united states, alleges were involved in smuggling activities through who the controlled ports. so again, the goal of the sections, the united states says, is essentially to disrupt shipping and financial pipelines that back the who these
6:25 pm
. all right, thanks so much. kimberly, how could that i'm bar salon is a senior research fellow at the center for mid least strategic studies that joins us now from the wrong good to have you with us. so 1st of all, let me ask you about these lights of sanctions. will i make a difference on the writing position? the assignment, you know, this is not the 1st time that the americans are imposing sciences on the run, some of the tennessee engage and diplomatic negotiations. a, you know, a much more wars than this has happened, which is the ongoing military conflict. and the question coming from these really side americans want to somehow get more compromises from you. um which is the right enrichment on the to ron, has been insisting that this will not happen. so in the meantime typed the wrong spot. administer is me, think it is the front of minnesota's office for you. let me all she was on that
6:26 pm
point. if i may have bus, do you read us any change a tool, any flexibility in the rain in position? or i apologize, i'm back to the un security console where the french about for the time, the choice and, and for this we things happen to them. if i sang to the under secretary journal for political and peaceful thing affairs, man decarlo as well as the director general of the i 88, mr. ref, i'll go see further briefings, which provide us with an assessment of and show the prize with an overview of the just the cation for today's meeting is really strikes against or on have been ongoing for a week. civilian casualties are multiplying on both sides yesterday. one of the largest is really hospitalized was struck by an iranian missile. is really strikes have also targeted civilian infrastructure that is unrelated to the iran in a new kremblested program. and information that has been related by the director general of the i a, a visa view,
6:27 pm
their radiological situation of certain sites is on everybody's minds. there is a need to urgently and these military operations the they harbor graves, threats turn to regional peace and security. france, coal service strength and the escalation civilian lives and to be shielded and there is a need to re embark upon the pass of diplomacy. mister secretary general stressed that at the heart of this matter lies the nuclear matter. francis position is clear . iran cannot and must not develop for getting a nuclear weapon. ron's, the any access to this weapon would generate a threat 1st and foremost, for the security of israel, an entire region which is rock, which around has been destabilizing for years by delivering its support to armed and terrorist groups and nuclear. iran would also pose the director to francis and
6:28 pm
to europe's security interests. this threat is now highly tangible. hostages of the front of state are presently being held in iran and around has been delivering ballistic missiles and around you and drones to roster. and they are being used in a tour of aggression against ukraine. france, take this opportunity to reiterate our call for the immediate release of the 2 hostages. that who have been held in iran over 3 years under unacceptable conditions around getting access to a nuclear weapon would pose it would represent and agreed just violation of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty. this would result in a grave weakening of the an international nonproliferation regime of which the treaty is the cornerstone. and this would prompt other states to engage in an arms race in the region and beyond your watch list. and yet, or ron has opted to engage in a dangerous escalation of its nuclear program, despite calls for it to respect his international commitments. iran has accumulated
6:29 pm
avery uranium stockpile that far succeeds for levitation set under the 2015 agreement. it has generated highly enriched uranium as levels which has no justification, no credible civilian justification, and it is established advance thousands of advanced centre fields. and i'm going beyond the limitations set out under the 2015 agreement, including sites where such activities are prohibited under the iranian nuclear agreement. and the dcp away, the director general of the i. e a and the report published late may have stated that he is not in a position to guarantee of the presence of the peaceful nature of their running program. i think board of governors of the i a e, a observed and a resolution adopted on 12 june that are on was failing to comply with the obligation under the n p t. we are grateful to the i a for it's unstinting efforts shouldering its oversight inspection activities despite ron's obstruction. we
6:30 pm
respect the ethic of impartiality, independence, and rigorous respect for treaties on their mandate, which the i a e. a once again demonstrated the goal of the council needs to be for ron, to resume cooperation was bitten by a to a very different back to compliance with international obligations. a decision by a ron to withdraw from the and p t would be an unprecedented escalation. however, our responsibility piece would be the suffering civilian populations, our commitment to international law, and the memory of the recent crisis in the middle east requires to act. there can be no military solution to the iranian nuclear matter is to negotiations that a last thing response needs to be sought to the threat of proliferation posed by a runs nuclear program. this is francis steadfast company about position alongside our british and determine partners. this is the approach which resulted in adoption
