Transcript [00:00] Is Iran accelerating the development of the weaponization system needed for an atomic bomb? [00:06] Israel has already planned to strike Iran earlier this month, but the operation was stopped after [00:12] President Donald Trump opposed it. And now the confrontation with Iran is approaching another [00:18] decisive moment. The American president says the United States must decide how it intends to defeat [00:25] Iran. And he is delivering a direct warning to Thran. We have to decide whether to do it the nice [00:32] way or the not so nice way. Either way, we will win. Trump is also sending a message to America's [00:39] allies across the Middle East. Prepare for the possibility of another major war. And today, [00:46] we'll bring you the details surrounding the secretive meeting between US Defense Secretary [00:51] Pete Hagsith and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyao at the Ovda Air Base in southern Israel. [00:58] what exactly was discussed and is the next military strike against Iran already in its [01:03] advanced planning stages? And meanwhile on the Saudi front, the Houthis continue their attacks [01:10] and their advances against Yemen's Saudibed government forces. Britain is sending fighter [01:16] jets to help defend Saudi Arabia, while London is making it clear the British aircraft will not [01:22] conduct strikes against targets inside Yemen. And is the trilateral defense agreement between [01:28] Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan now moving it into its next phase? In Israel's northern border, [01:36] the terrorist organization has raised its alert level in recent days amidst fears of another [01:42] escalation with Israel. I'm Ai Shosani, joined by Ashley Alex. Here on Boots on the Ground, [01:49] we bring you the full truth about what's happening in Israel and the full truth about what's [01:54] happening in our neighborhood, the Middle East. Today is Wednesday, October 21st, 2026. Let's [02:02] get started. Now, before we begin, I want to thank all of you who have stood with us, prayed for us, [02:08] and followed this journey from the front lines here in Israel. Later in today's report, [02:14] I'll tell you about Yupinto's new book, Boots on the Ground, and how you can receive a personally [02:19] signed copy. But in the meanwhile, visit tbn.org/boots on the ground or call 8008047895. [02:30] Let's get back to the news. President Donald Trump is presenting Iran with two choices. Reach an [02:36] agreement or risk another round of war. Speaking to reporters, Trump put it this way. We just have [02:43] to make a final decision. Which way do we want to win? The nice way or the not so nice way. And [02:50] the American president is making it clear that the previous strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities [02:56] were not sufficient. According to Trump, some of the infrastructure is now buried beneath hundreds [03:02] of tons of rock. that the United States must take certain make certain that Iran cannot develop a [03:09] nuclear weapon not 5 years from now and not 10 years from now. And this morning, a remarkable [03:16] new report reveals just how close Israel came to launching another major attack against Iran. [03:23] And according to the Financial Times, Prime Minister Bin Net Netanyahu ordered the IDF to [03:28] prepare for a largecale air campaign against Iran scheduled for the weekend of October the 10th. The [03:35] operation was expected to last several days and according to sources familiar with the planning, [03:40] it included a new list of targets, nuclear facilities, infrastructure belonging to the [03:45] Iranian regime, and even power stations that had not been attacked before. But the plan was stopped [03:52] after President Trump opposed launching another military campaign before the American midterm [03:57] elections on November the 3rd. And look, even more disturbing information has emerged in recent days, [04:04] this time concerning Iran's nuclear program. A senior Israeli diplomatic official claims [04:09] that Iran is accelerating the development of the weaponization component of its nuclear program. [04:15] We're talking about the technical process required to turn nuclear material into a [04:20] functioning nuclear explosive device. In other words, this is no longer simply a [04:25] question of enriching uranium. The concern is also about Iran developing the ability to [04:31] turn that material into an operational weapon. That claim has not been independently verified. [04:36] However, according to the Israeli official, Israel and the United States are closely [04:41] monitoring the developments and preparing for the possibility of another strike. And meanwhile, [04:47] the United States is con concentrating enormous military firepower in the region. The Pentagon [04:53] is sending the USS Theodore Roosevelt carrier strike group towards the Middle East alongside [04:58] the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit and additional amphibious naval forces. According to reports, [05:06] these reinforcements could bring approximately 10,000 sailors and marines into the region by [05:12] the end of November. They would expand an American military presence that reportedly also includes [05:18] the aircraft carrier USS George HW Bush and USS George Washington. However, some of those [05:25] deployments could involve replacing forces already stationed in the region rather than permanently [05:31] increasing the total American presence. And in the skies over the Middle East, reports of [05:36] unusual Israeli military activity. According to an American media report, Israeli fighter jets [05:42] flew overnight through Syrian and Iraqi airspace towards the Iranian border as part of an aerial [05:49] exercise. There were no reports of the aircraft entering Iranian airspace and Israel has not [05:55] officially confirmed the details. But the report comes at a time when preparations for another [06:00] potential military confrontation appear to be in intensifying. And now further details are emerging [06:08] about the secretive meeting involving US defense secretary Pete Hagsath, Prime Minister Binyamin [06:13] Netanyao and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz. The meeting took place at Ovda Air Force Base in [06:20] southern Israel where American fighter jets and aerial refueling aircraft are also operating. [06:26] Haxith confirmed that the meeting took place but declined to reveal what was discussed. And [06:32] when President Trump was asked about the talks, his response was brief. I can't talk about that [06:37] right now. So, what happened behind those closed doors? Was this about coordinating defensive [06:44] preparations for a possible Iranian retaliation or planning additional military strikes? And in tan, [06:52] the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is refusing to yield to American pressure. Mosen Razi, [06:58] Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, delivered a blunt message to Pakistan's [07:05] army chief Aif Mun. Not even a single particle of enriched nuclear material will leave Iran. [07:12] Pakistan and Qatar are advancing a compromised proposal involving nuclear inspections in exchange [07:19] for financial relief tied to frozen Iranian assets. But there's still no agreement. And [07:25] meanwhile, Iranian officials are saying that Thran is preparing for the possibility of [07:30] renewed American and Israeli attacks. And in the street of Homus, military tensions are continuing. [07:37] Iran is still threatening commercial shipping and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has compared its [07:43] tactics to the submarine warfare conducted by Nazi Germany during World War II. Rubio accused Thran [07:51] of deliberately threatening civilian sailors who have nothing to do with the war while attempting [07:56] to disrupt one of the most important trade routes on Earth. And on the ground, American forces are [08:03] working around the clock to defend commercial vessels and keep maritime traffic moving through [08:08] the Strait of Humus and its surrounding waters. So, will President Donald Trump ultimately choose [08:13] the military option? For now, Washington has not publicly announced a new order to strike Iran. [08:20] But the reported Israeli attack plan that was stopped, the American military buildup, the aerial [08:25] exercise, and the latest claims about Iran's nuclear program all point to the possibility of [08:31] another confrontation. And this time, the question is not simply what Israel and the United States [08:37] are capable of attacking. It's how far they're prepared to go to prevent Iran from acquiring a [08:43] nuclear weapon. and perhaps even to undermine the revolutionary guard's grip on power in Tehran. And [08:50] in Saudi Arabia, the war against the Houthis is expanding and the death toll continues to [08:55] rise. The number of people killed in the Houthi missile attack against the El Salam training camp [09:01] in Yemen's Shawaba province has now risen to 73. More than 200 others were wounded. Many of the [09:09] victims were young military recruits who were attacked during a formation at the camp. And on [09:15] another front inside Yemen in the city of Tais, a Houthi missile struck a residential area, killing [09:22] two teenage girls. And now Britain is expanding its military involvement in the defense of Saudi [09:27] Arabia. Royal Air Force Typhoon fighter jets will operate over the kingdom, helping intercept Houthi [09:34] missiles and drones. At the same time, Britain is sending an A400M military transport aircraft [09:41] and military advisers while extending its aerial refueling mission for another 90 days. London is [09:48] emphasizing that the Typhoon jets will operate in a defensive role only and will not conduct attacks [09:55] against targets inside Yemen. But behind the scenes, a much broader regional security alliance [10:00] is beginning to take shape. Turkey has submitted its trilateral defense agreement with Saudi Arabia [10:07] and Pakistan to Parliament for ratification. The agreement contains 16 articles covering mutual [10:13] military assistance, intelligence sharing, weapon supplies, and joint training. However, [10:20] parliamentary approval is still required before it can enter into force. At the same time, [10:26] disturbing reports are emerging about the possibility of Syrian military involvement. [10:31] According to information that has not been independently confirmed or verified, discussions [10:36] have taken place about potentially deploying up to 10,000 Syrian fighters to support the military [10:42] campaign. Those reports claim that Syrian officers visited Saudi Arabia's Najan and AIL provinces to [10:50] examine deployment costs and possible operational assignments. But Damascus denies that any decision [10:58] has been made to deploy troops and says reports of Saudi requests for Syrian soldiers are false. [11:05] And in the middle of all this escalation, Iran is sending a surprising message. Iranian foreign [11:11] minister Abbasi is offering to mediate between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis. But according [11:17] to Arachi, neither side has responded to his proposal. Think about the irony. Iran, which [11:24] stands accused of providing military assistance to the Houthis, is now offering to mediate or [11:30] bring an end to the war against them. Now, I wonder why Riyad isn't rushing to accept that [11:35] offer. Meanwhile, new reports raise suspicion that Iran is also using miniature underwater vessels [11:43] to smuggle weapons components to the Houthis in an attempt to bypass the naval blockade. These [11:48] allegations have yet to be independently verified. And now comes the bigger question. Could the war [11:55] in Yemen develop into a regional confrontation involving several national militaries fighting [12:02] together against forces backed by Tehran. And while Saudi Arabia prepares for a wider [12:07] confrontation with the Houthis, the alert level is also rising along Israel's northern border. [12:13] The terrorist organization has raised the alert level of its forces in Lebanon in recent days [12:19] amid fears of another Israeli attack. And Israel is delivering an uncompromising warning. Defense [12:26] Minister Is Katz is making it clear that any rocket or drone launched towards Israel could [12:32] trigger a devastating military response, including strikes against stronghold in Beirut. And ifah [12:41] joins a war alongside Iran, the IDF is prepared to expand its ground operations towards Nabatier [12:47] and the Lethani River area while enlarging its security zone in southern Lebanon. Washington [12:52] is also warning the Lebanese government. According to messages delivered to Beirut, the United States [13:00] has warned Lebanese President Ysef and Prime Minister Nawaf Salim that's involvement in any [13:07] kind of confrontation with Israel or with Iran could trigger a massive Israeli response, one [13:14] that could go far beyond the restrictions observed in previous rounds of fighting. Now, at the same [13:20] time, Israel and Lebanese military delegations are holding American mediated talks in Florida. The [13:27] discussions focused on disarming, deploying the Lebanese armed forces, and of course, [13:32] establishing security arrangements in southern Lebanon. Beirut is demanding an end to Israeli [13:38] strikes and a withdrawal of Israeli forces. And Israel, meanwhile, is demanding concrete steps [13:45] to dismantle's military infrastructure. Will the Lebanese government manage to preventah, [13:52] one of Iran's most important military proxies, from opening another war? Or will the next war [13:58] reach Beirut as well? And in Europe, the wave of violent unrest that began in France is now shaking [14:06] Italy. Following the riots, looting, and arson in Milan and other cities, Italian Prime Minister [14:12] Georg Milone is announcing a major crackdown on violent riers. Her message is clear. Those who [14:19] cause destruction will pay for it. The Italian government has approved new enforcement measures [14:26] against violence at demonstrations. Among them is a new criminal offense for violent participation [14:33] in a protest carrying a potential sentence of up to 5 years in prison and a fine of up to €20,000. [14:42] At the same time, 500 additional soldiers are being deployed to reinforce security forces [14:47] on the streets of Milan. Hundreds of people were detained during the unrest, including many minors [14:53] and some foreign nationals. Those figures are once again fueling an intense debate in Italy [14:59] over immigration, youth integration, crime, and the state's ability to maintain public order. [15:05] But an important distinction must be made. Not everyone detained was an immigrant. And there is [15:12] no verified evidence that foreign nationals made up the majority of those involved in the violence, [15:17] although there's a lot that indicates that they were substantial part. Can Europe bring this wave [15:22] of unrest under control? Or are its economic and social crises pushing even more countries towards [15:29] violent confrontation in the streets? We have a lot more to cover, so let's get into all the [15:34] details. I'm Mati Shosani. I'm joined today by Ashley Alex.

Early this [17:12] morning, the Saudiled coalition reported intercepting four drones heading towards [17:18] the kingdom. The interceptions took place around Medina and the eastern province amid continuing [17:25] attacks linked to the war in Yemen. No damage from those particular interceptions has been confirmed. [17:30] Now, why are these attacks continuing as Washington and Jerusalem consider their next move [17:36] against Iran? There's a telling detail from the American defense secretar's announced unannounced [17:41] visit to Israel. Pete Hagsth arrived at the Ovda air base in southern in the southern Israeli [17:48] desert where American aircraft are stationed. Pim Prime Minister Natanyao and Minister of Defense [17:54] Is Katz joined for a restricted meeting lasting about 90 minutes. The discussion concerned Iran, [18:01] but neither government has disclosed an operational decision. So what is actually being [18:07] prepared and what is still political pressure? Ashley Alex has been examining the military and [18:13] diplomatic picture. Ashley, now over to you. Thanks, Matty. To understand why that meeting [18:20] matters, we need to revisit a military operation that was ready to begin but never did. Israeli [18:27] forces reportedly prepared a multi-day bombing campaign for the weekend of October 10th. The [18:33] proposed targets included nuclear installations, facilities associated with the Iranian leadership, [18:38] and electricity plants. Three people familiar with the preparation say the operation was intended to [18:45] be more intense than the strikes carried out earlier this year. Prime Minister Netanyahu [18:51] supported moving ahead. President Trump opposed restarting the war before America's November [18:58] 3rd midterm elections and the operation was postponed. A senior Israeli political official [19:05] has now raised a separate concern. Iranian work on the weaponization component of a nuclear bomb. [19:12] Enriching uranium and turning it into a deployable warhead are different stages. The official claims [19:19] tan is accelerating the latter. This remains an allegation, not a publicly verified finding [19:26] that Iran has completed a bomb. Israeli security officials are also tracking attempts to rebuild [19:32] capabilities damaged in Operation Roaring Lion. They warned that Iran's pace of rearmament could [19:39] force decisions even as Netanyahu seeks to avoid an emergency before Israel's October [19:44] 27th election. Netanyahu has described the Iranian regime's downfall as an achievable [19:51] strategic objective. An American television report says Israeli fighter jets conducted an overnight [19:57] exercise towards Iran through Syrian and Iraqi airspace. Independent monitors also reported [20:05] military aircraft over Syria. Nobody has confirmed that the jets entered Iranian airspace or attacked [20:11] a target. The point is that preparation. A flight like this tests the demands of a long-d [20:18] distanceance mission without itself launching a war. American forces are adjusting their posture, [20:25] too. The carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is heading toward the Middle East. While the [20:31] 13th Marine Expedentary Unit and amphibious ships form part of the wider deployment, [20:37] a carrier strike group brings combat aircraft, air escorts, air defense, and surveillance to [20:44] sea. It increases the military options available to Washington, although new deployments may also [20:50] replace existing ships rather than leave three carriers operating simultaneously. though of the [20:57] meeting reportedly took place without Israel's military chief. Accounts differ over whether [21:03] officials from the United Arab Emirates attended. There is no confirmed Emirati role and no public [21:08] record of a joint decision to attack. Trump refused to discuss the meeting when questioned, [21:14] but he described the choice facing Thran. Victory the nice way or the not nice way. He also argued [21:21] that damaging underground nuclear facilities is insufficient if Iran can rebuild its weapons [21:27] capability five or 10 years later. The White House has nevertheless said the United States will not [21:33] attack Iran before the November 3rd midterms. Trump also acknowledged seeking help from European [21:40] governments, some of which refused. Military force therefore remains a possible later option, not an [21:48] announced imminent strike. A separate claim that Trump has privately instructed regional allies [21:53] to prepare for a much wider war has not been independently confirmed. In Thran, the negotiating [22:00] position is hardening. Mosen Razi, a senior Iranian security figure, told visiting Pakistani [22:06] army chief Aim Mun that not even a particle of enriched nuclear material would leave the country. [22:14] President Masoud Peskan demanded sanctions relief and an end to American pressure before meaningful [22:21] talks could resume. Iranian officials say they no longer trust Washington to honor an agreement. [22:28] Pakistan and Qatar have circulated a proposed compromise delivered to Thran by Munir before [22:34] he returned to Islamabad. It links visits by International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors to [22:40] financial relief involving $6 billion of Iranian assets in Qatar. Reports disagree on whether the [22:48] entire frozen sum or only its accumulated interest could be released. Some accounts [22:54] describe discreet unannounced inspections. Mediators describe encouraging initial responses, [23:01] but there is no confirmed agreement. Iranian accounts even contradict each other over whether [23:06] a Qatari delegation arrived. Thyran wants maritime restrictions eased first through a proposed 7-day [23:14] arrangement before discussing nuclear terms. Washington wants nuclear negotiations from the [23:20] outset. Several Iranian officials say Thran is preparing for renewed attacks rather than a quick [23:26] deal and deliberately prolonging talks to hurt Trump politically. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey [23:33] Lavrov has also visited Thran. These diplomatic contacts show how many governments are involved. [23:41] They have not broken the deadlock. The economic pressure is considerable. Iran's reported annual [23:47] inflation reached 73.6% in September and the Ry lost almost 35% against the dollar following the [23:55] renewed American blockade in July. Ship tracking data showed seaborn crude exports temporarily [24:03] falling to zero in September. Tyran faces serious financial constraints even without another bombing [24:11] campaign. The sea remains dangerous. The Singapore registered GFS Pride was struck by an unidentified [24:19] projectile in the street of Homos caught fire and sank. All 21 crew members escaped. A second ship, [24:28] GFS Gazelle, sustained damage but reached safety. Maritime specialists also describe attacks aimed [24:34] at ships, bridges, and engine rooms capable of disabling them without necessarily rupturing [24:40] oil tanks. Protecting civilian crews remains difficult in crowded waters. Before we continue, [24:49] please help us get the reporting from Israel to people who may never hear these details elsewhere.

[25:50] In Yemen's Shaba province, three Houthi ballistic missiles reportedly hit the Alam training facility [25:57] while recruits were assembled. The latest reported toll is 73 dead, more than 200 injured, and 14 [26:05] missing. Many of those killed were young men training with security forces aligned with Yemen's [26:11] internationally recognized government. This was not a battle between two units in open terrain. [26:18] It was a missile attack on a concentrated group of trainees. Saudi cities and energy infrastructure [26:25] remain under threat. Defenders must distinguish between ballistic missiles, slower drones, [26:31] and attacks aimed at widely spread locations. Interceptors and aircraft cannot be everywhere at [26:38] once. That helps explain why Riyad is requesting outside assistance. Britain is sending Royal Air [26:45] Force Typhoon fighters to patrol Saudi skies and intercept incoming threats, but not to strike [26:52] targets inside Yemen. London is also providing an A400M transport, military advisers, and 90 [26:59] more days of aerial refueling support. Tankers help Saudi aircraft remain airborne when a new [27:06] warning arrives. Intelligence accounts describe Iranian Revolutionary Guard officers and Hezbollah [27:12] personnel providing targeting information, training, and technical assistance to the Houthis. [27:20] components have reportedly traveled on civilian flights and when surface routes become harder [27:27] by submarine. Small underwater craft could evade conventional surface observation while carrying [27:34] sensitive guidance equipment. There is no public confirmation that a specific Gadier class boat [27:40] completed a delivery in this round. Thran denies direct arm shipments. Riyad is exploring ground [27:47] support as well. Reports claim Syrian officers discussed the possible deployment of up to 10,000 [27:54] fighters and visited Nadran and Asir near Yemen. They named Khaled Katab of the 82nd Division and [28:01] Haitam ali among the participants. Another unverified account puts 1,500 Syrians already [28:09] in Saudi Arabia. Damascus denies a decision to send troops and none of those deployments has been [28:15] independently established. Egypt has offered Saudi Arabia defensive assistance, but a parliamentary [28:21] vote on possible action against the Houthis was postponed until October 26th. President Abdel [28:28] Fatal Cece describes the proposed assistance as defensive. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbasari warns [28:36] that outside intervention would make matters worse. He has offered to mediate between Saudi [28:41] Arabia and the Houthis, but says neither has answered. Riyad has publicly questioned Thran's [28:47] role in encouraging Houthi attacks. Turkey has submitted the Mecca defense agreement with Saudi [28:53] Arabia and Pakistan to its parliament. Signed on August 7th, its 16 articles cover mutual [29:00] assistance, intelligence, weapons supplies, training, and joint defense projects. The text [29:07] also provides for a strategic committee and limits sharing confidential information with outsiders. [29:13] Turkey belongs to NATO and Pakistan possesses nuclear weapons but Turkish ratification remains [29:21] pending. The pact does not mean either country has automatically entered the fighting in Yemen. [29:28] Iraq has meanwhile ordered that Alisha board the crossing with Iran closed to people and goods [29:34] and other crossings could follow. Iraqi sources have given different explanations. There is no [29:40] established evidence that this administrative step means an attack is imminent. In Lebanon, [29:46] Hezbollah has reportedly raised its alert level amid concerns about Israel and domestic tension. [29:52] Accounts contradict each other about fighters moving towards Beirut's southern suburbs. Israel [29:59] warns of extensive retaliation if Habala joins an Iranian attack. Meanwhile, Israeli and Lebanese [30:05] officers are holding American mediated talks in Tampa, Florida about security arrangements, [30:11] Hezbollah's weapons and the southern border. The negotiations matter because a second front [30:18] could emerge even while Washington is trying to postpone a wider conflict. In Britain, [30:23] two men aged 24 and 25 have been rearrested on suspicion of assisting Iranian intelligence in an [30:31] incident near RAF Fairford. The base has hosted American bombers. Police consider Iranian state [30:37] involvement highly likely, but their investigation is ongoing and neither man's guilt has been [30:43] established. Europe is confronting violent protests over living costs and public services. [30:49] France has experienced serious clashes, looting, and mass arrests. In Italy, Georgia Maloney [30:57] authorized 500 additional soldiers for Milan through the end of the year alongside tougher [31:04] measures against violent demonstrations and damage caused by minors. These events are disturbing, [31:09] but there is no verified basis for portraying every protester as an immigrant or member of a [31:16] particular religious group. Higher energy prices connect those domestic protests to the Middle [31:22] East. The crisis in the Gulf is adding pressure to European governments already struggling with [31:28] public anger. Matty, Israel is planning. Thran is rebuilding and Washington has ruled out an attack [31:36] before the midterms. But what if another incident forces a decision earlier? Thank you, Ashley. [31:43] Let's get back to our news. The most important thing is to separate a military capability from [31:49] an order to use it. Our forces have to be ready for developments that cannot always be scheduled [31:55] around an election. At the same time, families across this region need leaders to understand [32:01] what another war would cost. The danger now is the one serious miscalculation could override the [32:07] diplomatic timetable. Will the next decision be made at a negotiable ta negotiation table [32:14] or in the air over the Middle East? So guys, keep spreading the truth. Follow us and most [32:19] importantly, don't forget to click the subscribe button so that you stay tuned to the truth in [32:24] real time and never miss Boots on the ground. Keep looking for me, Mati Shosani, and Yinto on social [32:30] media to see life in Israel through our eyes. And as always, I want to ask you to stand with [32:34] us in prayer for the people of Israel. Now more than ever, it's a time for sensitive, cautious [32:41] prayer. I know this is confusing. I know it seems sometimes very, very well just alarming all these [32:48] events that are taking place. But God has a sovereign plan and he has been faithful to the [32:53] people of Israel. So stand with me in praying and being watchmen over the walls of Jerusalem. And [32:58] let's ask God to protect our people, to protect our soldiers, to protect the American soldiers [33:04] fighting in this region, and to give wisdom to our leaders, and above all, for God's will to be [33:09] done here on earth as it is in heaven. And last, guys, ask for God's peace to rest over this city, [33:17] the city where I stand, Jerusalem, God's eternal city. Be blessed and I'll see you all next time.
