HUNTING HAMAS INSIDE THE TUNNEL NETWORK. >> Steve: TREY YINGST IS LIVE IN SOUTHERN ISRAEL WITH THE LATEST. TREY, GOOD MORNING TO YOU, GOOD AFTERNOON THERE. DAY 25, WHAT IS THE LATEST? >> Trey: YEAH, HI, GUYS, GOOD MORNING. SIGNIFICANT BREAKING NEWS. ISRAELI MILITARY SAYS THE ARROW MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM INTERCEPTED ONE FIRED FROM YEMEN. THE ARROW DEFENSE SYSTEM WAS USED FOR THE FIRST TIME. LIKELY BALLISTIC MISSILE FIRED BY HOUTHI REBELS, BACKED BY THE IRANIAN REGIME. FIGHTER JETS WERE SCRAMBLED TO SHOOT THEM DOWN. LAST HOUR INITIALLY THOUGHT TO BE DRONES WERE LAUNCHED AND TRAVELED OVER THE RED SEA

MAY HAVE BEEN CRUISE MISSILES ALONG WITH ONE BALLISTIC MISSILE. STEP OUT OF THE SCENE AND SHOW YOU THE SCENE BEHIND ME. THERE IS HEAVY FIGHTING ONGOING INSIDE THE GAZA STRIP AS INFANTRY TROOPS PUSH DEEPER INTO GAZA. I DID MEET WITH THE DEFENSE MINISTER GALLANT WHO SPOKE ABOUT THE INSIDE. ALL WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET APPROVED IS THERE ARE HEAVY BATTLES INSIDE THE STRIP FROM THE BRIGADE AND ISRAELI MILITARY OPERATING AT THISSURE HO. NUMBER OF HOSTAGES RISEN TO 240 PEOPLE, DOES NOT INCLUDE FIVE THAT ARE BACK SAFELY IN ISRAEL. THAT IS TWO MORE THAN CITIZENS,

TWO ISRAELI CITIZENS AND THE SOLDIER RESCUED YESTERDAY BY THE ISRAELI MILITARY DURING A RAID. THAT SOLDIER IS A PRIVATE WHO WAS FREED DURING THE OPERATION, ORIGINALLY TAKEN ON OCTOBER 7 FROM

THE BASE SITTING ALONG THE GAZA BORDER. YOU SAW THAT PICTURE WITH HER FAMILY. THEY LOOK RELIEVED TO HAVE THEIR DAUGHTER BACK IN SAFE HANDS AFTER SO MANY WEEKS IN HAMAS APCAPTIVITY. NEW VIDEO TODAYED OF A STRIKE AGAINST A TOP HAMAS COMMANDER INSIDE GAZA. THAT COMMANDER DIRECTED ONE OF THE ATTACKS ON OCTOBER 7. A LOT OF ACTIVITY TAKING PLACE ALONG THE GAZA STRIP AND THERE IS

HEAVY BABATTLE AT THIS HOUR. >> Brian: ROCKET COMING FROM HEZBOLLAH SPONSORED BY IRAN AND HOUTHI REBELS WOULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT IRAN, THIS IS IRAN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. HOW SOON UNTIL THIS EXPANDING TO IRAN TO TEHRAN? >> Trey: IT’S A GREAT QUESTION, THE THREAT ISRAEL FACES ARE COMING FROM IRANIAN HOUTHIS. THEY ARE RECEIVING FROM THE IRANIAN REGIME. HEZBOLLAH IS NOT MAKING MUNITION THEMSELVES, THEY ARE BEING SMUGGLED INTO SOUTHERN LEBANON ORIGINATING IN TEHRAN, IN IRAN. WHEN WILL THE ISRAELIS EXPAND AGAINST IRAN AND PROXIES IN THE REGION, YOU ARE STARTING TO SEE ISRAELIS STRIKE DEEPER INTO LEBANON

AND CAN EXPECT A LEVEL OF RESPONSE FOLLOWING THIS ABOUT LIFTIC AND CRUISE ATTACK EARLIER TODAY. >> Steve: TREY YINGST, THANK YOU, BE CAREFUL. >> Brian: THE ARROW DEFENSE SYSTEM H
