could you say in geneva to happening? that's hard to tell, let's remember is that the european union felt sideline when you run in the united states, started talking and see your opinion and actually started to play the role of the spoiler in the negotiations over your audience nuclear program. uh, president trump has himself said that the issue is irrelevant and that iran in the united states need to negotiate directly. so i'm not sure what the constructive role the, the ronnie ends and the european union can have with one another. i think ultimately the solution lies between iran and washington, and washington is there as well as making no secret. this ultimate aim is regime change and iran. but to what extent are we seeing these attacks spoke a less sense of national unity within it wrong? uh well, what we're seeing is an unprecedented sense of solidarity and a civic spirit that has over comes with people over here on that we have not seen since the end of the iran iraq war back to 1988. now i'm not sure if this is nec

chance for negotiations foreign ministers of germany, france and the uk are holding emergency talks in geneva over the weekend. ironic is refusing to hold further nuclear talks with the u.s. u.s. and military is not backing down intensifying strikes on regime targets in tehran prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been praising trump's efforts to help him. >> he partnership with the united states and with the president trump with whom i speak to almost every day is incredible pray they are participating and the protection of the skies over israel and its cities with bad missiles, batteries and his route with the ships on the shore of israel where their pilots fighting alongside our pilots to knock out drones it is a remarkable cooperation. thirty-six but netanyahu appears to be go it alone if need be telling israeli public broadcasting quote we will achieve all of our objectives and hit all of their nuclear facilities. we have the capability to do that. u.s. preside president donald tp wants to join or not is entirely his decision. ceo of the foundation of the defense of democracy it's good t

we just saw that iran's foreign minister was in geneva meeting with his counterparts from britain, germanynd france. it looks as though that didn't get anywhere. this foreign minister spoke with our own andrea mitchell and said that he was very disappointed and considered that the united states position was something like treachery, that they were they had basically strung iran along with these negotiations before israel decided on that preemptive strike, which it launched last friday morning. now, abbas araqchi, the foreign minister of iran, he's in istanbul meeting with various other muslim world leaders. this is the organization for islamic cooperation meeting. we're expected that they might release some sort of statement demanding a cease fire. but in all of these negotiations, all of this diplomacy, alex, there's a big israel shaped hole. it looks as though israel, after all of this, after maintaining its military dominance in the skies over tehran and over all of western iran, has been very reluctant to go to any negotiations that might see this ending. while they still very much hav

um i think we could still talk about geneva to me. uh, defense about kind of how conflict at them i can present these look. let me give you a bit of a sort of bottom line idea here. right? these? randy's nothing you know, need to step in if he doesn't step in. it's actually got to go to answer. but is there a is not pointed not winning the war. it's losing the war because if you don't accomplish some of the basic missions you went out for, while your cities are being bon breakfast, a sense of what it is right there, you have not one. the words doesn't matter how much you just talk to every american stimulation about peoples of this sydney idea of this kind of conflict. according to ben rhodes, who was deputy national security adviser of to obama. every single simulation involved these res in writing is ended with these ladies, begging the americans to get your thoughts at this. it kind of amazing but, but now it's up to you all my fear or my fear. whatever does that, the word is. is that if tom gets involved, he will also lose. the bo

protocol one of the geneva conventions prohibits attacks on installations containing dangerous forcesincluding nuclear and electrical generating stations, if the attacks could cause the release of dangerous forces resulting in civilian losses. the iaea has also consistently underscored that the safety and security of nuclear facilities must never be compromised by military action. the ongoing hostilities risk triggering a disaster of an unimaginable scale. any military action that endangers military facilities risks severe humanitarian consequences. river -- irreversible environmental harm, with global repercussions. therefore, we emphasize the need to safeguard and allow the full and unhindered implementation of the treaty on the known proliferation of nuclear weapons , which remains the cornerstone of the global nuclear disarmament nonproliferation and peaceful uses agenda. this recalls the fragility of the international nuclear program and the urgency of protecting those forces. we call upon all states to recommit to the objectives of the entity and engage constructively in dialogu

so far, diplomatic talks in geneva and turkey have yet to produce any breakthroughs in istanbul. iran's foreign minister told reporters that if the u.s. gets involved in the conflict, it would be, quote, very dangerous for everybody, end quote, for the very latest, let's bring in cnn's nic robertson in haifa, israel, a town that has been hit hard in recent days by iranian strikes. nic, bring us up to speed on these latest developments. >> yeah. the idf says that they use 50 aircraft last night to target the iranian nuclear facility in isfahan. the iaea, the international atomic energy agency, says that a workshop at that facility and a uranium enrichment workshop was damaged in that strike. and the three important military commanders, iranian military commanders that the idf said that they were able to target through intelligence. one of them, they said, was involved in hamas's october 7th attacks. he'd been on their target list for some time. another of those senior commanders in the quds force of the elite irgc, islamic revolutionary guard corps was involved. they say. the idf

but my colleague andrea mitchell was in geneva speaking with the iranian foreign minister about the prospects for this continuing as he went into negotiations with his european counterparts. and listen, he had some harsh words for the united states. here he is. >> can diplomacy produce a solution in two weeks? >> well, i think it's up to, you know, americans, the united states, i mean, to show their determination for. going for a negotiated solution or they have something else in their mind and they want to attack iran anyway. so they had perhaps this plan and we just they just needed negotiations, perhaps to cover it up. we don't know how we can trust them anymore. what they did was, in fact, a betrayal to diplomacy. >> so abbas araghchi, the foreign minister of iran, is now in istanbul, where he's attending a conference at the organization for islamic cooperation. so as you can see, alex, there's a flurry of diplomacy going around the whole region as different groups, different nations try to resolve this worsening situation between israel and iran. but so far, israel has been largely absen

iranian and european officials met for talks in geneva yesterday but there was no breakthrough. this morning the iranian foreign minister repeated that his country was ready to negotiate. but in order for us to come back the aggression should be stopped. it is obvious i cannot go to negotiation with the united states when our people are under bombardment, under the support of the united states. president trump's window for talks remains open. in israel the talk is about war, with people being warned again to prepare for a prolonged conflict. hugo bachega with that report. we mentioned earlier a meeting taking place in istanbul today, which is discussing the conflict. it's the organisation of islamic cooperation council of foreign ministers. at that meeting the president of turkey 'strongly condemned' israel's attacks on iran and gaza. translation: with all of these attacks, the netanyahu government has once again proved that it is the biggest obstacle in front of regional peace. i strongly condemn israel's attacks on iran. on behalf of my country and my nation, i offer my condol

my personal diplomacy around him. foreign minister abbas r i t has visited 1st, geneva and assemble this week. he says to iran is open to dialogue if, as well stops and attacks in order for us to come back it is obvious. i cannot go to random people out on there. but we have come from the united states has been induced from the, from the beginning during the meeting to august, present. ridge up top out on said as rainy prime minister benjamin netanyahu is the biggest obstacle to regional peace shouldn't today. so you need the lifted or not since the 13th of june, israel's state terrorism is now being experienced by on neighbor iran. i'd like to say the following. clearly, with all these attacks, the netanyahu government's proved. it is the biggest obstacle to regional peace. i strongly condemned mister wales, a tax on his bond on behalf of my country in my nation. i offer my condolences to all around him, brothers and sisters who lost their lives in israel's terrorist attacks bombings and assassinations. only in law, french present to any of my calls as you appear and nations are ready t

so far, diplomatic talks in geneva and turkey have yet to produce any breakthroughs. in istanbul, iran's foreign minister told reporters that if the u.s. gets involved in this conflict, it would be, quote, very dangerous for everybody. we've got a team of correspondents covering these developments. betsy klein is in new jersey, where the president is spending his saturday. but let's begin with nic robertson in haifa, israel. nic, bring us up to speed on the situation in israel and the latest strikes on iranian military commanders yeah. >> aside, azadi was. >> one of the main military commanders. >> that the idf targeted overnight. an intelligence led operation. two other commanders now azadi is somebody that the idf said was involved with hamas supporting hamas. and hamas is planning for the october 7th attacks in 2023. somebody that they said they'd been wanting to target. so what what they have done here with the targeting of these three commanders is send not only a very strong signal that they can find the you know, that they can find very senior iranian officials

saw in that package just reported, abbas araqchi, the foreign minister of iran, had just been in genevae he met with his counterparts from great britain, france and germany. there were no real breakthroughs in that meeting. but now araqchi is on his way, or i think he's in istanbul for a meeting of the organization of islamic cooperation. that's a huge body that has representatives from muslim majority countries throughout the world. they're expected to give some sort of statement calling for an end to the fighting, as we just heard from donald trump, who's now weighing whether or not to put american troops and weapons on the line. he says that it's going to be hard to get israel to stop. they have dominance over all of the airspace in western iran. they really are winning. so at this point, the israelis are probably going to want to finish the job and encourage the americans to do so to. >> nbc's matt bradley in tel aviv. thank you. and coming up, the rule of law is the rule of law, regardless of who's in office. at least that's how it's always been. and it's supposed to be. but i'll f
