  1. Hezbollah operatives being counted among civilians

  2. After 10,000 missiles that Lebanon launched into Israel for a whole year, he says this very clearly.
    "How dare the Jews defend themselves"

  3. מספרים 23:19
    אלוהים הוא לא אנושי, שהוא ישקר, לא בן אדם, שהוא ישנה את דעתו. האם הוא מדבר ואז לא פועל? האם הוא מבטיח ולא מקיים?

  4. Usual sly sky reporting, utter garbage.

  5. 200 ballistic missiles , their proxies' missiles and rockets i(plus the 7 October massacres which they financed, helped plan, and celebrate) and he calls am Israeli response "escalatory" ?

  6. Oh,..so this is an assassination attempt huh. Not "alleged" assassination attempt.🤔

  7. It would be more accurate to report that Hezbollah says he survived.

  8. What is senior Hezbolah commander doing amongst civilians? Oh I forgot they use civilians as human shield 🙄. Of all places he could have been he decided to go to civilian apartment buildings…

  9. BS Media..

  10. why are these terrorists hiding behind Civilians?

  11. He did not really survive..

  12. 👍🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱👍

  13. Presumed to be safe? I though Isreal said to get above that river line. Was this attack above or below that line?

  14. How about being specific about the casualties, where have all the Hezbollah terrorists gone and innocents are getting killed.

  15. He might have survived, but he's probably been knocked back into the Stone Age by the blast…

  16. Lebanon and Palestine don't worry Abu jahl is worse than Neten jahu even though Neten jahu worse than Hitler bec Hitler killed people who only produce kafir as Noàh curse the kafirs and complained to Allah that they produce nothing except a kafir and dsame complained i lunch to Allah…while Neten jahu kill Muslim who produce Muslims who are serving Allah…a kafir has no use

  17. Israel is a nation of terrorism and a state of terrorists and terrorism , imagine if Spain did this to London or any city in the uk 🇬🇧 what would we do , if these people are so good then why didn't the Americans and Western allies keep them in their own countries

  18. the bias medias and bias UN security council constantly blaming Israel, But I haven't heard them criticizing or condemning the tunnels and tons of weapons by the Hezbollah ! including Iran's 180 rockets fired at Israel, not even one of them condemn and Iran ! Sky News is one of them, shame !!!

  19. Were they all terrorists? Was the strike in the Hezbollah enclave? Have the people been warned?

  20. Terrorist were killed but they make it look like it’s civilians that were killed.

  21. Always the same comments. People slagging off the news. But yet everyone always coming back to watch the reports. Doesn't make sense. If u don't believe them, then why does everyone come back and watch…

  22. Sky has as many Hezbollah sources as Iran's supreme leader.

  23. ignore biden a coward the reincarnation of neville chamberlain who fucked hitler before the war.

  24. Can we cut the escalation stuff, it’s already a war.

  25. Why does Sky news report senior Hezbollah figure Wafiq Safa survived based ONLY on what Hezbollah or the government of Lebanon has said?
    If Wafiq Safa is still alive when will Sky News show him to us?
    And why s Sky News not reporting on the Hezbollah attacks on civilians In Israel, a couple killed walking their dog, a Thai worker killed etc.

  26. His a politician not a comader

  27. Classic Sky trash media coverage! This is why I’ve never picked up the phone when they’ve called me to film for them; no chance!!!

  28. Israel out of control

  29. the gen now in lebanon. the gen fully supported by uk gov

  30. All the data and figures of reports quoted by the media are doubtful because the the Ministry of Health in Lebanon are controlled by Hezbollah while in Gaza are conteolled by Hamas. These 2 health ministries are part of the propaganda machines of the terrorists and in many events had been notorious in having A FALSE reports of number of casualties.

  31. How do their Hezbollah sources communicate? using pigeons?

  32. Are they militants or civilians? Propaganda machine

  33. Iran will pay huge amounts of dollars to this leader by selling so many public life so called tunnel covered by residential home s

  34. Lebanon was a christian nation before

  35. Just like all Sky UK reports on Gaza and Lebanon they never put Hamas and Hezbollah in a negative light, they are scared of the repercussions, ask Alex Crawford when she apologized for calling Hezbollah militants.

  36. WHY is the theory of evolution never called a religion?people who believe in the theory of creation aren't the people vowing to destroy western civilization❤❤❤

  37. Using human shield is their strategy

  38. IRAN'S proxys like hezbollah can fire all the missiles they want into Israel and that's never called escalation.It's only when Israel defends itself,that's escalation?

  39. This is typical Sky UK journalism, all were told to go north much o er the Latina river, amazing the report states 22 people when 12 were Hezbollah.

  40. UMARIM HEPSİ HİZBULLAH MİLİTANIDIR! ORTADOĞUDA HUZUR İSTİYORSANIZ, İRAN YAPIMI HİZBULLAH ÖRGÜTÜNÜN TEMİZLENMESİ ZORUNLUDUR.🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

  41. Israel is doing a Favour to Lebanese government by bombing Hezbollah

  42. Meddling in this war can ruin a nation.

  43. Iranian attempting missile attack ? f sky news
