[00:00:00] his colleagues [00:00:21] learned to express the truth until the end [00:00:24] of their lives. to be at work [00:00:28] What [00:01:22] are the nightly public gatherings in defense of the country? Broadcast the news of these [00:01:24] gatherings both inside and outside the country. This itself [00:01:28] is an important mission. O people, [00:01:31] come with [00:01:32] us. [00:01:36] Now, if I ask you to be a reporter, what [00:01:39] I don't know, you suddenly came, I'm not ready. I would love [00:01:43] to do it. What is your reason for being on the field? [00:01:46] Oh, that was a very good question. If we were reporters, what [00:01:50] would we narrate? To you. [00:01:53] Reporting is very difficult. I would narrate [00:01:56] the patience of the people, the people being at work on the scene. [00:02:05] The frontline soldiers of the [00:02:08] media war are reporters. It's a jihad. [00:02:11] One sentence to the reporters, may their hands not ache, [00:02:14] they really did a great job. You are on the field at all times. Stay [00:02:18] on the field and give hope to all [00:02:22] the people with your beautiful reports. [00:02:25] The promise of victory is with the hand [00:02:28] of Lady Zahra. [00:03:00] Every step taken towards the Dar-ul-Zikr portico [00:03:04] is a story of an Iranian's [00:03:07] longing. People from all corners of this [00:03:11] land brought themselves to Mashhad al-Reza to [00:03:14] renew their allegiance with the martyred leader of Iran. [00:03:18] The sound of the [00:03:20] clock bell at the shrine draws hearts [00:03:24] towards the golden [00:03:25] dome. [00:03:30] Pilgrims who, after visiting Imam Reza, [00:03:34] walk together for another greeting. We missed them so much. [00:03:37] We said it's better to come and say hello in person so our hearts [00:03:41] can be more at peace. [00:03:45] From all over Iran, they came to the heart [00:03:48] of Khorasan. It's been about a month since the martyrdom of our leader, [00:03:52] but the crowd is still very large. [00:03:56] Steps reach here. [00:04:08] Seeing the tomb of the beloved brings tears to the eyes [00:04:12] of first-time pilgrims. [00:04:13] I [00:04:16] love [00:04:17] him very much. [00:04:23] Each of these pilgrims has unspoken [00:04:25] words. I couldn't go to visit the Leader. [00:05:14] The trust that is seen today in the tears, [00:05:18] in the steadfastness, and in the endless greetings [00:05:21] of the pilgrims. We Turks say Jan [00:05:23] Agha. Rooh Reyhan, [00:05:26] Agha, we will be with you until the end. [00:05:29] Agha. [00:05:33] Now, Dar-ul-Dhikr has been transformed into Imam Hosseinieh [00:05:37] for the people to meet our martyred leader. [00:05:40] Azam Fereydoun Moghadam, news. [00:06:13] They fired over the illuminated House of God [00:06:16] and the military forces of this regime were stationed in the northeast [00:06:19] of the Nuseirat [00:06:21] camp. [00:06:25] The Yemeni army, in a preemptive operation, targeted areas [00:06:28] affiliated with Saudi forces. This [00:06:31] operation was within the framework of the legitimate right of the Yemeni people to end [00:06:35] 12 years of aggression and [00:06:38] siege. A new [00:06:41] phase of the war in Yemen was announced by the armed [00:06:45] forces against Saudi military gatherings in [00:06:49] affiliated camps. The combat formations affiliated [00:06:52] with Riyadh have been sending equipment and various [00:06:55] weapons for months to launch a surprise attack from different [00:06:59] axes and fronts against Sanaa. But [00:07:03] Sanaa was monitoring all this time and planning [00:07:07] for a preemptive operation, an operation that involved precise [00:07:11] attacks on the camp and a meeting. [00:07:42] The armed forces of Yemen emphasized that they will continue to target [00:07:45] all Saudi military gatherings in Yemeni territory. [00:07:49] Imposing a naval blockade against Saudi Arabia and targeting [00:07:53] any military gathering have been announced as [00:07:56] two separate equations by the Yemeni [00:07:59] armed forces. The Saudi enemy tried to escape [00:08:03] the naval blockade and is trying to keep us busy by mobilizing [00:08:06] its army or its alternative army, [00:08:10] which consists of ISIS mercenaries [00:08:12] and Takfiris that it has gathered from various [00:08:16] parts of the world. This is all that we believe it [00:08:20] has done so far. These operations [00:08:23] were not. In the past two days, the Yemeni army carried out [00:08:27] extensive operations against strategic reserve camps, [00:08:29] such as the Sahyan al-Jinn camp in the city of Maghrib. This [00:08:33] camp, affiliated with Saudi Arabia, is used to store modern weapons [00:08:36] and gather human forces affiliated with it, which, according [00:08:40] to the official spokesman of the Yemeni [00:08:42] forces, was targeted with a large number of missiles and drones. Also, [00:08:46] local reports indicate that multiple explosions were heard [00:08:50] in Hadramout and the city of Mukalla near Bab [00:08:54] al-Mandab. The precise [00:08:57] attacks by Yemenis against Saudi military gatherings in Yemeni territory [00:09:01] continue to solidify the equation of sovereignty. This comes [00:09:05] amidst the absolute silence of the Saudis, which has not been broken [00:09:09] except by condemnation statements. Sultan Sadah, news reporter. [00:09:17] And now a review of a few short news items from other parts of the world. Protesters gathered in [00:09:21] Beirut to protest the government's agreement with the Zionist regime. Lebanese [00:09:25] citizens, by chanting slogans against normalization and compromise with the Zionist [00:09:28] regime, announced their opposition to normalizing relations with this [00:09:32] regime. [00:09:33] The United Nations is investigating [00:09:40] allegations of espionage by one of UNICEF employees for the Zionist [00:09:44] regime. According to Farhan Haq, Yahav [00:09:48] Lichner is accused of providing confidential information [00:09:51] to diplomats of the Zionist regime. [00:09:55] China's [00:10:01] warning to Japan about changing nuclear policies. China's [00:10:05] Ministry of Foreign Affairs, while strongly criticizing the rumors from the Japanese [00:10:08] government to change nuclear policies, warned Tokyo [00:10:12] not to play with [00:10:13] fire. [00:10:21] The Prime Minister of Malaysia announced the government's decision to increase the defense [00:10:25] budget of the country in 2027. [00:10:29] The Malaysian government has increased the budget of the Ministry [00:10:32] of Defense by more than 35% in the past [00:10:35] three years. [00:10:42] And a power outage at the control center of the British [00:10:45] rail network disrupted train movements in parts [00:10:48] of the northwest of the country. Following this incident, hundreds [00:10:52] of rail trips were canceled, and [00:10:55] many trains were delayed by more than an hour. [00:10:59] CNN [00:11:04] reported that the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff [00:11:07] of the US military, in private conversations with senior officials [00:11:11] of the Trump administration, expressed concern about the consequences [00:11:15] of escalating conflict with Iran and called for [00:11:18] a way out of the war. General Dunford [00:11:21] warned that the military options proposed [00:11:25] for escalating the conflict might backfire. [00:11:28] The general who did not dare to oppose [00:11:32] the start of the war with Iran is now desperately [00:11:35] looking for a way to end it. According to the CNN [00:11:39] report, General Dunford has told key Trump [00:11:42] advisers in recent weeks that military options [00:11:46] could backfire and that air power [00:11:49] alone cannot achieve US objectives. The report [00:11:53] emphasizes that the American general is looking for a [00:11:56] way out. Air power has its [00:12:00] own limitations and these limitations must always [00:12:04] be considered. The latest Pentagon assessment shows that the US [00:12:08] army used up nearly 80% of its THAAD [00:12:11] defense system and about half of its Patriot missiles in the war [00:12:15] with Iran. Solving this problem will take [00:12:19] years. Trump's hasty decision to go to war with Iran [00:12:23] completely emptied the warehouses. And now, exiting the war is the only [00:12:26] option on the table. General Charles [00:12:29] Costanza, commander of the US Fifth Corps, who was [00:12:33] recently and suddenly dismissed, had previously [00:12:36] expressed concern about US weakness in defending [00:12:40] against Iranian drones. These concerns were what [00:12:44] forced Trump to retreat from his recent threat to attack [00:12:47] Iran. Donald [00:12:50] Trump has threatened a widespread attack exactly seven [00:12:53] times since the beginning of the war, and all seven times [00:12:57] he has backed down empty-handed. These repeated retreats and political [00:13:00] bluffs have left nothing of America's credibility. [00:13:04] The rising human costs of Trump's war are now [00:13:07] worrying many in America. According to [00:13:10] a Press TV report, nearly 700 American [00:13:14] military personnel suffered brain injuries from Iranian [00:13:17] drone and missile attacks. This [00:13:20] was an unnecessary war that Trump entered without any plan. [00:13:25] The pressure on our military personnel is increasing day by day. [00:13:28] We do not have the necessary equipment to defend them, [00:13:32] and strange reports of extreme fatigue and severe shortages of basic [00:13:36] supplies are reaching us. The situation has become [00:13:38] so critical that the US Central Command, in the sixth [00:13:42] month of the war, is in a state of strategic confusion and, [00:13:46] by sending internal emails, is desperately [00:13:49] looking for a way to escape this war. [00:13:52] Azad Taheri, IRIB News Agency. [00:14:02] The Deputy Minister of Energy for Electricity and Energy asked [00:14:06] the public to help ensure stable electricity [00:14:10] supply during the summer electricity peak by reducing [00:14:13] consumption by 10% for the next [00:14:15] three days. We are in the summer [00:14:19] peak season. The temperature is still hot in most [00:14:23] parts of the country, especially the southern [00:14:27] half of the country, and enduring a power [00:14:30] outage is very difficult. Well, we are doing our best to keep the power plants online. We ask [00:14:34] our dear people to save energy as much as [00:14:37] they can. It is predicted that the [00:14:41] demand will reach approximately the same level [00:14:44] as this year's peak of 75,800 [00:14:47] megawatts. Therefore, if our dear people save energy, [00:14:51] even the amount of one light bulb or one air conditioner, it can have a great impact, [00:14:55] and God willing, after August 10th, [00:14:58] the temperature usually gradually decreases, followed [00:15:02] by a decrease in electricity [00:15:04] consumption. The Meteorological Organization predicted [00:15:08] scattered rain and thunderstorms for tomorrow in the [00:15:12] heights of West and East Azerbaijan and the Central Alborz. Ms. [00:15:15] Salami, expert from the Meteorological Organization, [00:15:18] will provide more details on this. [00:15:22] In the name of God, I would like to say hello and respectfully to you, [00:15:25] dear viewers. For the coming hours, in the northern [00:15:29] parts of the country, the beautiful shores of the Caspian Sea, the Alborz [00:15:32] mountains, and in the central and southern slopes of the Zagros, [00:15:36] we predict rainfall in these areas. [00:15:39] We expect rainfall to be heavier [00:15:43] in parts of Mazandaran province, the Alborz mountains, Tehran, and [00:15:46] Semnan. An orange weather warning has been issued [00:15:50] for these provinces. There is also a possibility of flash floods and rising [00:15:53] river levels. We ask that you completely avoid [00:15:57] climbing to high altitudes in these areas due [00:16:00] to the rainfall, and also avoid staying near [00:16:04] riverbanks during this period. There is a possibility of rising river [00:16:08] levels. In the central and southern slopes of the Zagros, rainfall [00:16:11] will be less intense. We will have a yellow [00:16:15] level warning for these areas. For [00:16:19] Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, Kohgiluyeh, Lorestan, [00:16:22] and parts of Khuzestan and Fars provinces, the rainfall [00:16:26] is such that a yellow level weather warning has been issued. In these [00:16:29] areas, there is also a possibility of flash floods and rising river levels. In some [00:16:33] parts of the northern regions of our country, due [00:16:36] to the rainfall, even hail is predicted [00:16:39] in these areas. Another phenomenon that exists [00:16:43] across the country is strong winds, which for the next [00:16:46] few days in parts of the northeast, east, southeast, center, and [00:16:50] the Alborz slopes, will cause dust and reduce air [00:16:54] quality, and there is a possibility of damage to temporary [00:16:57] structures and old trees. Also, in [00:17:01] the Alborz slopes, for Tehran province, we also expect [00:17:04] strong winds and dust, [00:17:11] dust and a decrease in air quality in Tehran province as well. Thank you for your attention and cooperation. [00:17:13] The spokesman of the Judiciary [00:17:16] spoke about the latest status of the implementation [00:17:20] of paragraph B of Article 114 of the Seventh Development Plan Law, [00:17:23] regarding the establishment of technical, engineering, and registration [00:17:27] agencies. He said: So far, five companies have succeeded [00:17:30] in obtaining a brokerage license. However, the start [00:17:34] of providing services to the public is dependent on completing the monitoring [00:17:37] processes and connecting to the registration system. Mr. [00:17:41] Jahangir, in response to a question from a reporter from the IRIB News Agency about [00:17:45] the slow pace of launching these agencies, [00:17:48] said: [00:17:51] The process is definitely slow in my opinion. The reason [00:17:55] for this is that various entities [00:17:57] need to act on these licenses. One of the problems we have [00:18:01] in issuing licenses is that multiple authorities [00:18:05] when for [00:18:14] look, getting a business license from the union takes a certain [00:18:18] amount of time. An electronic symbol certificate also requires [00:18:22] time, which must be obtained from the Center for Trade [00:18:24] Development. This issue has caused the [00:18:28] work to be prolonged, and we hope that with [00:18:32] the coordination that is happening through system integration, [00:18:35] we will see new agencies become active [00:18:39] in the shortest [00:18:40] possible time. [00:18:43] Payment of $3 billion in facilities by the National [00:18:47] Development Fund in one year. The Deputy Investment Manager of the National [00:18:50] Development Fund announced this news and said: $600 [00:18:54] million of this investment was made through traditional [00:18:57] methods, $600 million through new methods, [00:19:01] $300 million through bond issuance, and [00:19:04] $400 million in the form of short-term [00:19:07] facilities. Mr. Mohammadi said: The National [00:19:11] Development Fund has so far provided approximately $40 [00:19:14] billion in facilities to more than 380 [00:19:17] projects, of which $23 billion [00:19:21] was for oil, gas, and petrochemical projects, and [00:19:24] $3.4 billion was for power plant [00:19:27] and steel projects. [00:19:29] And [00:19:32] now a few more news items from our country. The Advisor [00:19:35] to the Supreme Leader on International Affairs wrote in a message [00:19:39] on social media: Recent developments were shaped by the steadfastness [00:19:42] of the armed forces, the resistance of the Iranian people, and the courage [00:19:45] of the resistance axis. Mr. Velayati emphasized that foreign [00:19:49] forces are the main cause of instability in the region and must [00:19:53] leave the [00:19:53] region. [00:19:58] The Secretary of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution congratulated [00:20:02] the winning of the first gold medal in the Third International Artificial [00:20:05] Intelligence Olympiad and called it a clear symbol of the intelligence [00:20:09] and remarkable ability of Iran's young generation. [00:20:13] Iran's National Computer Olympiad team went to Uzbekistan [00:20:17] to participate in the 60th International Computer Olympiad. Mohammad [00:20:20] Shayan Arash, Ostad Sharif, Me'mar Bahamin [00:20:23] Shafaghi, Hamed Ghaffari Aghdas are [00:20:26] members of the dispatched team. [00:20:30] The fourth International Teacher Award, with the aim [00:20:33] of honoring and strengthening the social status of teachers, [00:20:37] published a call for registration. Interested individuals can visit [00:20:41] the official website of the Teacher Award [00:20:44] for registration and [00:20:45] more information until October 22nd. [00:20:49] The CEO of the Poultry Farmers' Union said it is predicted [00:20:52] that egg production in August will be over 95,000 [00:20:56] tons. According to Mr. Moradi, the average market [00:20:59] demand for this period of the year is 85,000 [00:21:02] tomans. [00:21:04] And the head of the National Tea Organization [00:21:07] said that 75% of the tea growers' demands have been paid. According [00:21:11] to Mr. Jahansaz, this year 89,000 tons of green tea [00:21:14] leaves have been purchased from tea growers [00:21:17] in Gilan and Mazandaran. [00:21:21] Well, now let's go to Ardabil province, to the cool [00:21:24] and snow-covered pastures of Meshginshahr, [00:21:27] a destination for tourists. Meshginshahr County, with its [00:21:31] pristine nature and the slopes of Sabalan, [00:21:34] has always attracted domestic and foreign tourists. In [00:21:38] summer, the pastures of this region are among [00:21:41] the main destinations for nature [00:21:44] lovers. [00:21:48] With the completion of the electricity [00:21:50] works, [00:21:52] the reopening of avalanche-prone sections of nomadic roads in Meshginshahr has created [00:21:56] conditions for citizens and travelers to visit [00:22:00] the upstream pastures of the region. Can a car [00:22:03] come and go here? Yes, it can easily come. Where are you from? I'm from [00:22:07] Tehran, darling. Well, what's the difference between [00:22:11] the weather here and in Tehran? It's very different. It's 42 [00:22:14] or 43 degrees there now. Here, I think it's about [00:22:18] 15 degrees, 14, 15 degrees. Well, they should come [00:22:21] and see this, it's really a shame. This place is absolutely exceptional. You can [00:22:25] see snow in summer at high altitudes. It's [00:22:29] really something unique that we have here. It's unparalleled. [00:22:33] In some provinces where the temperature is above [00:22:37] 50 degrees Celsius, you can freeze here. It's truly [00:22:40] empty for all our compatriots here. The [00:22:44] beauties of Sabalan are unique. The snow it has, [00:22:47] the rivers and springs it has. [00:22:51] It's absolutely unique. Which month are we in now? We are in [00:22:55] mid-August 1405. The [00:22:58] weather here is truly great, the nature is great, full of energy. The pastures [00:23:01] of Meshginshahr are one of the different seasons of the year. [00:23:05] The nature here, for example, is not found anywhere else [00:23:09] in this region. First, these mountains that are there now, these waters [00:23:12] come directly from the top of the mountain. Second, [00:23:15] these meadows and everything are all green. Let's go. [00:23:27] But the common advice of all tourists is to come [00:23:31] and enjoy, but don't harm the nature [00:23:34] and its animals. Collect your trash and take it with you. [00:23:38] Meshginshahr is beautiful in every season. Meshginshahr [00:23:41] must be seen. Javad Dehghani, IRIB News Agency, [00:23:45] August 1405. [00:23:48] Meshginshahr County. [00:24:05] In the name of God, hello and good time. Efforts to win the Asian [00:24:09] Championship and qualify for the 2028 Olympics. The new [00:24:12] round of training for the national volleyball team is under [00:24:15] Piazza's scrutiny. The training of our national volleyball team for participation in [00:24:22] the Asian Championship, with the presence of players in the Nations League and the return of Roberto [00:24:26] Piazza to the camp last night, took on a more serious form. The first [00:24:29] group of 14 invited players to the camp started [00:24:33] their training from the beginning of August under the supervision [00:24:36] of Piazza's assistants, and now the second group, after returning [00:24:40] from the Nations League, joined this group yesterday, [00:24:44] so that 28 players will have intense competition [00:24:47] to be included in the final list of the Italian [00:24:51] coach and participate in two important events: [00:24:54] the Asian Championship and the 2026 Nagoya Asian [00:24:58] Games. The Iranian national volleyball team [00:25:00] will leave for a 10-day training camp in Russia [00:25:04] with 14 players on August 20th and, after conducting [00:25:07] preparation training and friendly matches, will leave [00:25:11] that country to participate in the Asian Men's Championship [00:25:15] and the first stage of the 2028 Olympic [00:25:18] qualifiers. These competitions will be held [00:25:22] from September 4th to 13th. [00:25:25] A new [00:25:28] ethical scandal recorded in the FIFA President's [00:25:31] file. Infantino, who these days is on the verge of being fired [00:25:35] due to his political lobbying with Trump, is now [00:25:38] facing a new ethical revelation, so that in one week [00:25:41] he faces two major political and ethical [00:25:45] scandal cases and in a way, [00:25:48] the hardest period of his 10-year presidency [00:25:52] will pass. Today, The Telegraph exposed [00:25:55] a corruption and unethical relationship case during his [00:25:58] time at UEFA and wrote that the FIFA President, [00:26:02] upon leaving UEFA, deposited a significant gift [00:26:06] into his employee's account. This is while the number of Infantino's [00:26:09] opponents is increasing these days, and Enrique [00:26:13] Santiago, the spokesperson of the Spanish IU party, [00:26:16] criticized Infantino's political actions and called him [00:26:20] Trump's servant.
