And in fact, if you look just in the distance, you can see the ruins of a Lebanese village which was destroyed in the war between Hezbollah and Israel.
18 months ago now hezbollah the shia militia group based in lebanon is religiously financially and ideologically tied to iran and given those ties it was almost inevitable that they were going to get involved in this conflict it started with hezbollah firing missiles towards israeli cities israel responded with airstrikes on beirut and in the south and now
They've gone in on the ground to try and push Hezbollah back.
We've heard the sound of explosions in the distance.
Could have been airstrikes, could have been tank shelling, just as we arrived here this morning.
Now, in the past, Hezbollah was able to launch attacks on towns like Metula from just a few hundred meters away.
Israel is determined that will not happen again.
And in the past, when the war in Gaza started, these villages...
In Israel, they had to be evacuated.
Some 60,000 people living in the north of Israel had to leave their homes for well over a year.

was killed and a number of other people have been injured and all morning the sirens have been going off here.
I've heard loud explosions overhead.
Just as we were driving to Tel Aviv, we saw a couple of Iranian missiles being shot down directly above our car.
So, you know, the Iranians have said this is going to be the most devastating operation in their history in retaliation and they do seem to be being true to their word.
Well, they do.
I mean, that's pretty obvious.
