Iran Braces For Nuclear Site Attack; Israeli Strikes Wound Top Houthi Leaders | Boots on the Ground
TBN Israel's Yair Pinto reports on the Israel-Hamas War. As the IDF encircles Gaza City, the elimination of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad leaders intensifies including those directly tied to hostage captivity. Despite a coordinated media campaign by Hamas to manufacture famine narratives, Gaza is seeing an influx of humanitarian aid, even as Hamas blocks evacuations and diverts supplies. In this Boots on the Ground episode, Yair Pinto and Mati Shoshani expose the facts behind the headlines: Iran’s accelerating nuclear preparations, the Houthis in retreat, Hezbollah violating ceasefire terms, and the emergence of a new global axis opposing the West. Day 698 of the war, truth, not propaganda.

  • Taking place in china. leaders from around the world come
  • 00:06:16.482 --> 00:06:19.485
  • Together to say we want to be the bad guys. now, those are my
  • 00:06:19.485 --> 00:06:24.156
  • Words. not theirs, of course, but they're aligning with
  • 00:06:24.156 --> 00:06:26.658
  • Tehran. they're saying to the west, we want to go against the
  • 00:06:26.658 --> 00:06:30.529
  • Sanctions that are imposed on iran. we want to allow iran to
  • 00:06:30.529 --> 00:06:34.199

  • For sanctions against iranian evil. this is not a conspiracy
  • 00:06:37.669 --> 00:06:41.306
  • Book and not something you pick up at the airport. and they
  • 00:06:41.306 --> 00:06:44.143
  • Science fiction stand. this is happening right now in china,
  • 00:06:44.143 --> 00:06:48.313
  • Where leaders from around the world are uniting in one call.
  • 00:06:48.313 --> 00:06:52.651
  • We want to be the bloc that pushes and resists against us
  • 00:06:52.651 --> 00:06:55.687
  • Presence and us agendas in the world. this is a substantial
  • 00:06:55.687 --> 00:07:00.159
  • Amount of leaders that represent a substantial
  • 00:07:00.159 --> 00:07:02.528
  • Financial power and number of people of the global population,
  • 00:07:02.528 --> 00:07:07.166
  • And at the same time, they're making this very bold, very
  • 00:07:07.166 --> 00:07:10.035
  • Clear stand. we are against western thought. and in a very
  • 00:07:10.035 --> 00:07:14.640
  • Movie like or let's call it 1990s hollywood fashion,
  • 00:07:14.640 --> 00:07:18.210
  • They're aligning themselves as the bad guys and with the bad
  • 00:07:18.210 --> 00:07:22.147
  • Guys saying, we want to get behind this with funds, with
  • 00:07:22.147 --> 00:07:24.983
  • Deals. we want to be the power that opposes the powers of good
  • 00:07:24.983 --> 00:07:28.220
  • In the world, and we're aligning with iran. here's what
  • 00:07:28.220 --> 00:07:31.256
  • You need to remember with a snck ticking. and she,
  • 00:07:31.256 --> 00:07:35.294
  • Putin and kim aligned in public, beijing is auditioning as a
  • 00:07:35.294 --> 00:07:38.864
  • Counter bloc narrative against the us and western thought, and
  • 00:07:38.864 --> 00:07:43.235
  • Signaling it intends to lead that thrust. in summary, we
  • 00:07:43.235 --> 00:07:47.940
  • Sometimes think that global geopolitics, they sort of are
  • 00:07:47.940 --> 00:07:51.243
  • In the gray area, but every once in a while we get this
  • 00:07:51.243 --> 00:07:54.580
  • Perfect snapshot of multiple countries saying we want to be
  • 00:07:54.580 --> 00:07:58.050
  • The bad guys in this story. they don't use those words, but
  • 00:07:58.050 --> 00:08:01.053
  • Their actions speak much louder than their words. they line up
  • 00:08:01.053 --> 00:08:04.289
  • The weapons, they line up the leaders. they point an arrow
  • 00:08:04.289 --> 00:08:07.226
  • And say, we support the evil that is iran. we want to get
  • 00:08:07.226 --> 00:08:11.096
  • Behind it and we want to oppose everything that the us is doing
  • 00:08:11.096 --> 00:08:14.900
  • In this part of the world. and of course, israel is part of
  • 00:08:14.900 --> 00:08:18.203
  • That. this is something to keep track of and to watch, because
  • 00:08:18.203 --> 00:08:21.540
  • We're at a point where pressure is mounting on iran and on
  • 00:08:21.540 --> 00:08:24.042
  • These other countries, and they're trying to present a
  • 00:08:24.042 --> 00:08:26.245
  • Victory picture against american influence and against
  • 00:08:26.245 --> 00:08:28.914
  • Israel, both in the middle east and in wars and conflicts to
  • 00:08:28.914 --> 00:08:32.518
  • Come, both in the south china sea, which is a huge issue that
  • 00:08:32.518 --> 00:08:36.255
  • Is coming down the pipeline and in several other regional
  • 00:08:36.255 --> 00:08:39.424
  • Issues. anyway, we're going to be keeping on top of all of
  • 00:08:39.424 --> 00:08:42.027
  • That. make sure you watch everything we create, because
  • 00:08:42.027 --> 00:08:44.563

  • Organization hamas. this ends when hamas cannot move, cannot
  • 00:09:38.450 --> 00:09:43.589

  • Kilometer system is beit hanoun, inside gaza, and it was

  • Recently destroyed, so expect more of that scale as gaza city
  • 00:18:21.005 --> 00:18:26.578
  • Is completely isolated. and you're asking, why does the idf
  • 00:18:26.578 --> 00:18:32.016
  • Need 80 to 100,000 reservists for this mission? i'll tell you,
  • 00:18:32.016 --> 00:18:36.754
  • Because urban fighting is heavily manpower. defendant and

  • Holding what you clear takes fresh bodies. the campaign
  • 00:18:42.861 --> 00:18:47.632
  • Rhythm is train up. breach. clear. hold. reset with rest
  • 00:18:47.632 --> 00:18:54.806
  • And reheat cycles that are banked into the system so that
  • 00:18:54.806 --> 00:19:00.578
  • The brigades can operate for months and not just weeks and
  • 00:19:00.578 --> 00:19:05.884
  • Win this war. the fewer civilians inside a combat block,
  • 00:19:05.884 --> 00:19:11.189
  • The fewer casualties theirs and also ours. that's why tents and
  • 00:19:11.189 --> 00:19:17.328
  • Shelters are moving south before the breach. that's why
  • 00:19:17.328 --> 00:19:21.332
  • Goods flow through the kerem shalom border crossing under
  • 00:19:21.332 --> 00:19:24.269
  • Tight screening, and why a screened private sector channel

  • Is being piloted to increase the volume, reduce the theft
  • 00:19:29.274 --> 00:19:33.578
  • And deny hamas the human shield leverage that it craves using
  • 00:19:33.578 --> 00:19:40.051
  • The palestinian population. operationally, it's simple move
  • 00:19:40.051 --> 00:19:44.689
  • People out, move forces in, move lies out of the way and
  • 00:19:44.689 --> 00:19:51.529
  • Carry the mission. we are now sitting in abu ghosh. it is an
  • 00:19:51.529 --> 00:20:01.339
  • Arab village in israel, just five minutes away from my house.
  • 00:20:01.339 --> 00:20:06.411
  • By the way, guys, this is hummus, okay? it's the best day
  • 00:20:06.411 --> 00:20:10.615
  • Ever. and this place won world record of making the best in
  • 00:20:10.615 --> 00:20:14.619
  • The world. and as you can see, more and more food is coming in
  • 00:20:14.619 --> 00:20:19.157
  • And we're going to have an amazing lunch. and it's proof
  • 00:20:19.157 --> 00:20:23.228
  • That you can live side by side. jews and arabs. and israel is
  • 00:20:23.228 --> 00:20:29.334
  • The only example around the middle east that this is
  • 00:20:29.334 --> 00:20:33.238
  • Happening in. and we want this to happen also with the gaza
  • 00:20:33.238 --> 00:20:37.575
  • Strip. we want this to happen also with lebanon. we want this
  • 00:20:37.575 --> 00:20:40.411
  • To happen with syria, with yemen, and with iran. so guys,
  • 00:20:40.411 --> 00:20:44.549
  • Make sure to pray for a better future for the idf to succeed
  • 00:20:44.549 --> 00:20:49.454
  • In eradicating the terrorist organization hamas. anything
  • 00:20:49.454 --> 00:20:52.423
  • Else you want me to say? tomo?
  • 00:20:52.423 --> 00:20:54.525
  • >> i really think it's the only way. i think that what the
  • 00:20:54.525 --> 00:20:57.428
  • Government just decided, it's the only way to release gaza
  • 00:20:57.428 --> 00:21:03.534
  • From the hands of hamas. no, basically, it's.
  • 00:21:03.534 --> 00:21:07.505
  • >> important to understand that hamas is a terrorist
  • 00:21:07.505 --> 00:21:10.241
  • Organization that is controlling the palestinian
  • 00:21:10.241 --> 00:21:13.177
  • People in the gaza strip.
  • 00:21:13.177 --> 00:21:14.445
  • >> it is.
  • 00:21:14.445 --> 00:21:15.446
  • >> also in charge of the education system.
  • 00:21:15.446 --> 00:21:17.515
  • >> it is also in charge of manpower of the government. so
  • 00:21:17.515 --> 00:21:21.219
  • The only way to have a future and to live somehow in
  • 00:21:21.219 --> 00:21:26.124
  • Coexistence with the gaza strip is by removing hamas and
  • 00:21:26.124 --> 00:21:30.428
  • Planning for the future, a future that will not include
  • 00:21:30.428 --> 00:21:33.698
  • Terrorism will not include weapons.
  • 00:21:33.698 --> 00:21:36.134
  • >> and it's very hard. it's a very hard situation. but but i
  • 00:21:36.134 --> 00:21:40.204
  • Think there is hope. there is hope because israel is living
  • 00:21:40.204 --> 00:21:43.841
  • Proof that jews and arabs can live side by side in peace and
  • 00:21:43.841 --> 00:21:50.148
  • Prosperity. if you want to come and visit abu ghosh and israeli
  • 00:21:50.148 --> 00:21:54.519
  • Mixed arab-jewish city, come, come visit israel. israel is
  • 00:21:54.519 --> 00:21:59.390
  • Not just about wars. we have beautiful hotels, we have
  • 00:21:59.390 --> 00:22:04.228
  • Amazing cuisines and food from all over the world.
  • 00:22:04.228 --> 00:22:07.332
  • >> here you can taste it.
  • 00:22:07.332 --> 00:22:10.368
  • >> we follow the plan like a map. shape the field breaking.
  • 00:22:10.368 --> 00:22:15.073
  • Clear the area, hold the ground. we check the upper floors and
  • 00:22:15.073 --> 00:22:20.845
  • The narrow alleys. we used robots and uavs. we also fought
  • 00:22:20.845 --> 00:22:27.218
  • The white wall under our feet in the tunnels where shafts and
  • 00:22:27.218 --> 00:22:32.990
  • Fear once ruled the streets. we faced the hard problem of
  • 00:22:32.990 --> 00:22:38.429
  • Hostages and the strict self-control that it requires
  • 00:22:38.429 --> 00:22:42.433
  • To save the living while we break the system that took them
  • 00:22:42.433 --> 00:22:47.105
  • In the first place. and we remember this victory is not a
  • 00:22:47.105 --> 00:22:52.110
  • Speech. it means not more enemy brigades, no more rocket
  • 00:22:52.110 --> 00:22:58.649
  • Launchers, no more smugglers. it means every hostage home and
  • 00:22:58.649 --> 00:23:04.021
  • Civilians out of danger. it means that the fence line that
  • 00:23:04.021 --> 00:23:09.660
  • Holds and a future that does not go back to yesterday. so
  • 00:23:09.660 --> 00:23:14.031
  • Here is my ask to all of you guys check the facts before you
  • 00:23:14.031 --> 00:23:19.604
  • Share. do not give the enemy a win by spreading lies. stand
  • 00:23:19.604 --> 00:23:25.309
  • With the people who tell the truth. from medics in the field
  • 00:23:25.309 --> 00:23:29.247
  • To data analysts, to parents who teach their children to
  • 00:23:29.247 --> 00:23:34.118
  • Think. support our soldiers with prayer and care packages
  • 00:23:34.118 --> 00:23:39.290
  • And with patience. hold the line with us. help us fight
  • 00:23:39.290 --> 00:23:45.229
  • Misinformation with truth. and the most important thing that
  • 00:23:45.229 --> 00:23:49.600
  • You can do, guys, is unite in prayer. this is a spiritual war.
  • 00:23:49.600 --> 00:23:54.038
  • And how do we battle a spiritual war? we stand with
  • 00:23:54.038 --> 00:23:58.643
  • The truth and we pray. so take a moment. make it personal.
  • 00:23:58.643 --> 00:24:03.981
  • Pray for an idf soldier that is preparing to enter the gaza
  • 00:24:03.981 --> 00:24:07.919

  • Hamas terrorists. you don't have time to sit and drink your
  • 00:24:45.389 --> 00:24:48.459
  • Coffee and wake up in the morning and get ready for the
  • 00:24:48.459 --> 00:24:51.128
  • Day and prepare. so sometimes i woke up at two in the morning
  • 00:24:51.128 --> 00:24:55.299
  • After an hour and a half of sleep, and you need to wake up
  • 00:24:55.299 --> 00:24:59.136
  • Immediately and do your job and do it to perfection. or people
  • 00:24:59.136 --> 00:25:03.107
  • Die.
  • 00:25:03.107 --> 00:25:04.342
  • >> you literally have your life on the line. you don't know
  • 00:25:04.342 --> 00:25:07.144

  • You.
  • 00:25:13.384 --> 00:25:14.519
  • >> so in order to wake up, i just took a pill and i really
  • 00:25:14.619 --> 00:25:19.156
  • Felt the energy levels go up faster. the clarity of mind
  • 00:25:19.156 --> 00:25:22.226
  • That doesn't usually happen immediately when you wake up in
  • 00:25:22.226 --> 00:25:25.196
  • The morning. and i don't remember taking much stuff with
  • 00:25:25.196 --> 00:25:29.000
  • Me into the gaza strip. had my sleeping bag, a flashlight, and
  • 00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:33.538
  • A vineyard bottle. so that's what i had with me.
  • 00:25:33.538 --> 00:25:37.108
  • >> you're a young person. you're very healthy, but you
  • 00:25:37.108 --> 00:25:39.143
  • Still think that vinea was helpful to get you to even a
  • 00:25:39.143 --> 00:25:43.281
  • Higher level of performance?
  • 00:25:43.281 --> 00:25:44.582
  • >> it's helping me to exceed my normal abilities. so let's say,
  • 00:25:44.582 --> 00:25:49.720
  • You know, i'm at 100%. and that puts me at 120. with raising
  • 00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:53.624
  • Three kids, you need to be sharp to make the right
  • 00:25:53.624 --> 00:25:56.494
  • Decisions.
  • 00:25:56.494 --> 00:25:57.395
  • >> raising three kids may be equal to combat.
  • 00:25:57.495 --> 00:26:00.231
  • >> a lot harder, a lot harder. listen, i'm still taking every
  • 00:26:00.231 --> 00:26:04.235
  • Day because i want to be there with my kids when they grow old.
