but, you know, in the middle east we speak a different language. you know, our enemies, they will not appreciate the fact that we actually decided to sit idly by. joe biden understands the middle east — his basic line is it is time for israel to stop, take the win, he says, draw a line in the sand. well, a win is when we attack, not when we observe hundreds of rockets. that's not the language we talk here in the middle east. so we have to do what's good for israel. and when you look at the history, when we took the right decisions, on the long run, it was good for the us as well. when we attacked the reactor in iraq in the 805, the us condemned us — back then it was president reagan — but it was a smart decision. when we attacked the nuclear reactor in syria, we were condemned by the us. so we should do what's good for us, even if it's not acceptable or popular among the leaders in other countries. at the end of the day, it's our security, it's our future, it's my children, so we have to do what's right for us. benjamin netanyahu has always s

tensions in the middle east have escalated, after iran launched more than three hundred drones and missiles towards israel. almost all the weapons were shot down by israeli, american and allied forces. iran's attacks were in response to a suspected israeli strike on iran's embassy compound in syria at the beginning of the month. this is the first time iran has attacked israel directly, although the two countries have been at loggerheads for years. all this will rattle investors and oil markets — business reporter suranjana tewari is across the story from oui’ newsroom. any indication of what's likely to happen with market sentiment this morning? australian shares have opened lower on the escalatin- lower on the escalating tensions. oil prices expected to rise at the start of the asia trading day. although a lot of this has been priced in. on friday oil prices were at a six month high. that's because investors really expected that iran would retaliate on that suspected israeli attack at the beginning of the month. traders say any gains will depend on the scale of israel's response. i thi

no one stands to benefit from another war in the middle east. it is vital that the conflict does not spiral out of control and therefore we call on all parties to show restraint. 0ur chief international correspondent, lyse doucet, had this assessment of the attack. it may be unseemly to talk about a win win situation when the region is at its darkest and most dangerous moments. but both sides can now say that they have established deterrence. israel felt it had to respond. lord cameron said, well, do as little as possible so as not to escalate. i think we have to be careful. this may only be the beginning and not the end of israel's response. but israel is not claiming officially it was at work. allows iran to operate in the grey, to have to take that sort of that warning that it sounded so many times that if israel hit hard, it would hit back immediately. now it's saying it was limited. we don't know who did it. so they are claiming victory. israel is claiming victory. and for the moment the tensions have eased, but the hostility is not gone aw

discussions were dominated by the wars in ukraine and the middle east. in attendance, the foreign ministers from the united states, britain, italy, canada, france, germany and japan. they promised to beef up ukraine's air defences and told china to stop supporting moscow's military industry if it wanted good relations with the west. but on the final day, much of the focus was on israel's strike on iran — and calls for cooler heads to prevail. our correspondent, jessica parker reports from capri. the meeting of g7 foreign ministers here on the italian island of capri has now wrapped up, events in the middle east have certainly been a dominant factor here. we went to one of the final press conferences, it was with the us secretary of state, antony blinken, and it was really interesting. he really did not want to be drawn on events overnight in iran. he was asked repeatedly by journalists including myself about what had happened, what he might know, but he didn't want to say anything apart from the fact that he said the us had not been involved. i asked h

our middle east reporter sebastian usher has more from jerusalem. what we now know as an israeli strike has killed three of the hamas political leader, ismail haniyeh's sons. also, what we've heard from hamas and from mr haniyeh himself was that several of his grandchildren were killed in the strike as well. now, this is what israel has said that it will continue to do. it described the three men as hamas operatives, saying that they had carried out terrorist activity in the central gaza strip. and even though israel has pulled out most of its troops from gaza, there is no sense that israel is ending its operation there and is continuing to target anyone that they regard as somebody who is a fighter, an activist for hamas. so on that level, this is what israel said it will do. on the response from hamas and from ismail haniyeh himself, he is essentially said that this doesn't change anything, that he has already lost members of his family, so many other palestinians in gaza have as well. he's not going to let this shift or change the policy that ham
