00:00Israel's military strength on full display across Lebanon Saturday.
00:20Explosions rocking the capital, killing dozens, shutting down hospitals, airstrikes flattening
00:26homes in the east, a rare attack in the north killing a Hamas leader, while Israeli troops
00:32continued their ground invasion in the south.
00:36While Hezbollah sent missiles over northern Israel Saturday, Israel claims to have discovered
00:42Hezbollah tunnels in southern Lebanon.
00:46But the biggest blow seen Saturday may have been the disappearance of one of Hezbollah's
00:50own senior members.
00:52Hashim Safiyeddin, most likely to take over as Hezbollah's leader, has been out of contact
00:57since Friday.
01:07French President Emmanuel Macron has said that 88 French-speaking countries have called
01:12for an immediate ceasefire in Lebanon.
01:15Speaking at the 19th Francophonie summit in Paris, Macron also said the group had approved
01:19an international conference to support Lebanon, which will take place later this month.
01:25Those comments are in response to an Israeli ground operation into Lebanon launched at
01:30the end of September to take out Hezbollah positions close to the Israeli border.
01:35And since the launch of the Lebanon offensive, at least 1,400 people have been killed and
01:401.2 million driven from their homes in less than two weeks.

02:17Here's what's next!
02:44North Korea is furious.
02:45Its leader Kim Jong-un is issuing a chilling threat to annihilate South Korea with nuclear
02:50weapons if attacked.
02:52Kim's latest tirade comes in response to the South Korean president Yoon Suk-yool's warning
02:57that any nuclear attack by North would in fact spell the end of the Kim Jong-un regime.
03:03Clearly, the tensions are once again peaking in the Korean peninsula.
03:06This alarming declaration has come as tensions on the Korean peninsula escalate, weeks after
03:13Kim's visit to a uranium enrichment facility capable of producing weapons-grade nuclear
03:17material.
03:27A double tragedy today.
03:29Four people lost their lives attempting to reach the UK.
03:33Two men, a woman and a child who is thought to have been crushed and suffocated to death
03:39as people rushed onto a boat.
03:42And hadn't even set sail.
03:44Both boats had over 80 people on board, a seemingly new and dangerous number of occupants.
03:51The blood is on the hands of the criminal gangs who organised the journeys.
03:55That's according to French Interior Minister Bruno Rattayol.
03:59Our government, he promised, will intensify the fight against these mafias who are getting
04:04rich by organising these crossings of death.
04:1220 million dollars.
04:19That's the amount of money that Zimbabwe's government is to start distributing as initial
04:23compensation to foreign white and local black farmers, whose land was taken from them during
04:28the land invasions more than two decades ago.
04:33According to the country's finance minister, the move is part of a broader effort by the
04:36government to revive the country's agricultural sector.
04:41The compensation will help pave the way towards reconciling losses incurred during farm seizures
04:46ushered in by former President Robert Mugabe.
