[00:00:22] The spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces announced in a statement the details of the extensive [00:00:25] military operations of these forces deep inside Saudi Arabia. [00:00:29] He stated that [00:00:32] two unique military operations were carried out with a large number of ballistic [00:00:35] and winged missiles, as well as drones. [00:00:39] He quickly added that in the first operation, important sensitive targets [00:00:42] in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, and in the second operation, [00:00:46] the Aramco company in Yanbu [00:00:49] were attacked. The spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces [00:00:53] emphasized that these operations, which were carried out in response to the continued brutal attacks [00:00:56] by Saudi Arabia on the people of Yemen, were successful [00:01:00] and caused extensive fires at the targeted locations. [00:01:04] شد. [00:01:08] According to the New York Times, the Pentagon has announced the cost of the US war against [00:01:12] Iran to be 3.4 billion dollars. This figure, more than [00:01:16] 60% of which is related to bombs, missiles, and other ammunition, [00:01:19] is considered by congressional officials to likely be higher [00:01:22] than the actual cost of the war. The costs of fuel, repair [00:01:25] or replacement of damaged military facilities, and some other expenses [00:01:29] are not included in this estimate. Based on some previous estimates, [00:01:33] the cost of the war in the first 85 days was estimated [00:01:37] at more than 90 billion dollars. [00:01:40] تخمین زده شده [00:01:41] The Deputy Director of Production Strategy [00:01:46] of the Thermal Power Plant Company announced the completion of a large part [00:01:50] of the fuel reserves of power plants and said that nearly 80% of diesel tanks [00:01:53] and 70% of fuel oil tanks have been filled. According to Mr. Moradi, [00:01:57] with joint planning between the two ministries of Oil and [00:02:01] Energy in the second half of the year, efforts will be made to ensure [00:02:04] electricity supply without power outages due to fuel shortages. [00:02:08] کمبود سوقد انجام [00:02:09] The Telegraph wrote that Iran proved [00:02:13] it can drive the US out of the Middle East. According to the British publication, [00:02:17] US bases, which were built for deterrence, have become targets of attack, [00:02:21] and the Pentagon Inspector General reported that hundreds of buildings [00:02:25] in regional bases were damaged. [00:02:28] The key strategic failure [00:02:33] is the concept of America's forward defense, which since [00:02:37] 1991 was based on deploying forces in the Persian Gulf [00:02:40] to deter Iran and Iraq. Persian Gulf countries relied [00:02:44] on this presence by signing defense treaties. But the recent months of conflict [00:02:48] destroyed these assumptions. The bases became vulnerable points, [00:02:51] and Iranian armed forces, by targeting them, consumed expensive and scarce [00:02:54] US air defenses. The publication emphasized that [00:02:58] the debate now is whether rebuilding the US military presence on the previous scale [00:03:02] is financially and strategically worthwhile [00:03:05] or not. [00:03:09] مالی و راهبردی به صرف است یا [00:03:11] These days, the market also has a touch of Mehr [00:03:15] about it, and students, along with their families, are busy buying stationery [00:03:19] in Takapopoy. In Kurdistan, this year, 342,000 students [00:03:21] will go to school. [00:03:25] A few days before reopening. [00:03:28] چند روز مانده به بازگ. [00:03:49] Every family here has a shopping list, from bags and shoes [00:03:53] to notebooks and stationery. They need a ruler, [00:03:56] they need school supplies, I don't know, whatever they [00:03:59] want. Students also enthusiastically [00:04:03] choose their school supplies. Are you mindful of dad's [00:04:07] wallet? Yes. My bag and some [00:04:10] school supplies are still good, and I try to use them to reduce the cost [00:04:13] for my dad. Sellers these days are also seeing an increase [00:04:17] in demand for school purchases. What are you selling? [00:04:21] Do you care about people's [00:04:25] pockets? I hit them both on one side. [00:04:28] یه طرف زدم بهشون جفت یکو. [00:04:53] But its signs are already visible in the market, in new bags, new notebooks, and the enthusiasm [00:04:57] of students who are once again on their way. [00:05:04] I'm so happy that schools are reopening. I'll go and learn better. [00:05:07] Mohammad. [00:05:10] Voice of IRIB News Agency, Sanandaj. Zanjan-Tabriz Freeway [00:05:17] on the path of renovation. The Zanjan-Tabriz Freeway is one of the important freeways in the country [00:05:21] that starts from Tehran and continues to the Bazargan border. [00:05:24] The Minister of Roads and Urban Development says that the renovation of this route is underway. [00:05:28] سازی این مسیر در دست انجام [00:05:30] From May of this year, the renovation, safety improvement, [00:05:34] and resurfacing of this freeway were placed on the agenda of the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development [00:05:37] and the Road Transport Organization. Approximately, [00:05:41] more than 40% of these 285 [00:05:45] kilometers had suffered severe damage [00:05:48] and required extensive renovation and repair. [00:05:51] This started in May and, God willing, [00:05:54] by the end of the working season, that is, in the next two [00:05:57] or three months, we can promise [00:06:00] that all sections of the route, [00:06:03] which, if I'm not mistaken, consist of 15 sections [00:06:07] and 15 contractors working along the entire length [00:06:11] of the route, will be completed. [00:06:14] God willing, by the end of the working season, we will be able [00:06:18] to resolve a large part of these problems that had caused dissatisfaction [00:06:22] among the people and bring it back to cycle. [00:06:25] مردم رو هم از دست داده بود بتونه دوباره به چرخه [00:06:29] برگرده. [00:06:32] Conversion industries in East Azerbaijan are not just a slogan, but a realized goal. [00:06:36] So much so that the products of the processing units in this province [00:06:39] are known commodities to customers both inside [00:06:43] and outside the country. [00:06:45] The development of conversion industries [00:06:48] by reducing waste leads to an increase in added value [00:06:51] and export development. The conversion industries [00:06:54] of East Azerbaijan province have a good position in the country. [00:06:58] They rank third nationally. Approximately [00:07:01] 850 units are active in this province, [00:07:04] with a capacity of 59 million tons. [00:07:08] In East Azerbaijan, 5 million tons of agricultural products [00:07:11] are produced, 70% of which are processed in the province. [00:07:15] Like this factory, which produces 15 tons of jam, honey, [00:07:19] and halvah at a rate of 5,000 tons per year. [00:07:22] Considering that our packaging type is competitive with [00:07:25] other countries, it has been well received. Currently, four large projects [00:07:28] are also underway in the province, which, if completed, will add [00:07:32] 2 million tons to the province's conversion industry capacity [00:07:35] within the next two years. However, existing industries [00:07:39] face challenges, such as this cheese production [00:07:43] factory that produces 350 tubs daily. [00:07:46] The rising price of milk consequently increases [00:07:49] the cost of finished cheese in the conversion units. If the honorable banks [00:07:51] and respected institutions can provide [00:07:55] low-interest loans so that we can support [00:07:58] some of our issues, meet our market shortages, [00:08:01] it will be fruitful. We expect them to do more [00:08:04] in terms of facilitating repayments and [00:08:07] in the field of imports, to allow us to import [00:08:11] those flavors and fruits that are not found [00:08:14] in Iran, that is, they are not available [00:08:18] in our own country. The esteemed government should create [00:08:21] an independent credit line for conversion industries, [00:08:25] and then we can provide all the necessary facilities for the agricultural sector [00:08:28] and conversion industries. [00:08:32] East Azerbaijan product. [00:08:35] صنایه تبدیلی رو [00:08:36] تأمین [00:08:40] awaits final approval [00:09:12] in the government. Fortunately, last week, [00:09:16] it was approved by the government's [00:09:19] sub-committee for planning and budget. [00:09:22] The next step should logically be the main committee and the government floor, [00:09:26] and my prediction is that it can be approved and communicated [00:09:29] within a month, more or less, [00:09:33] and a big event will happen that allows you [00:09:36] to reward any citizen, any consumer, [00:09:39] industrialist, farmer, anyone who consumes water, [00:09:43] if their action leads to savings and increased [00:09:46] efficiency, and it is verifiable and [00:09:49] validated, we can in some way [00:09:52] receive financial compensation for it. [00:09:56] شد به طریقی ما به ازای مالی اون رو هم دریافت [00:09:59] Stay with us. [00:10:04] با ما همراه [00:10:05] In Southern California, [00:10:39] the sun rises over San Diego Bay. [00:10:43] Along a boulevard, [00:10:46] 54-year-old Maria begins her day [00:10:50] in this parking lot. [00:10:52] I make my bed. [00:10:56] This car [00:10:59] is her home. [00:11:00] It's the same every day. [00:11:05] Every day, [00:11:08] I make my bed. [00:11:10] Maria no longer [00:11:13] has a home to live in. She has been sleeping [00:11:17] in her car at night [00:11:19] for a year now. [00:11:24] It looks very neat, it doesn't look like you live [00:11:28] here at all, but it really is. [00:11:31] I've seen people whose cars are very messy, [00:11:34] and everything is everywhere. Well, how can I go to [00:11:38] work with a life like this? I mean, one should have some [00:11:42] order and arrangement, you know? Because to be able to continue [00:11:45] living, we need these things. Of course, nothing is easy, [00:11:49] but this is the way I want it, and it makes me [00:11:52] feel better at least. Like Maria, [00:11:55] about 30 other people also sleep in their cars [00:11:58] in this free parking lot at night. However, some of them even have good jobs: [00:12:02] a security guard, an Uber driver, a secretary, [00:12:05] or even a computer engineer. [00:12:09] حتی مهندس [00:12:10] Maria works as a cleaner and [00:12:18] caregiver, a demanding job that she does [00:12:21] seven days a week. Did I sleep well? [00:12:26] Yes, it depends on where my car is. [00:12:30] If it's like this, no, it has to be a flat surface [00:12:34] because my back hurts if it's like this, [00:12:37] and well, then I'm not feeling very good. To provide [00:12:41] a little comfort for these people, a charity organization [00:12:44] has provided them with a water tap, a restroom, and a small outdoor kitchen [00:12:47] where Maria prepares her morning coffee [00:12:51] before going to work. This is a kind of strong coffee [00:12:57] that is very famous in America. [00:13:00] Everyone loves it. [00:13:02] Maria's fall from [00:13:07] an affluent life is a fate that thousands of other Americans [00:13:10] are also grappling with. For a long time, she had [00:13:14] everything she ever wanted. She was married and lived [00:13:18] in this beautiful house. But after 5 years [00:13:22] of marriage, her seemingly happy marriage [00:13:25] suddenly fell apart. [00:13:28] She just left me. [00:13:31] She left me, and I said, "Okay, if it didn't work out, it didn't work out. [00:13:34] Goodbye. Goodbye. See you later." [00:13:37] I said, "What? Now I have nowhere to live. [00:13:41] I don't have a home. I'm homeless. I don't have a bed. [00:13:44] I don't have furniture. I don't have a home. I only have this car. [00:13:48] And here I have a chair." Yes, that's life. [00:13:51] What can you do? You have to make [00:13:55] do with life. [00:13:57] Maria started a new life, but over the past few years, [00:14:01] the cost of housing rent in California has increased so much [00:14:04] that her 1500 euro income [00:14:08] was not enough to rent an apartment. Since then, every morning, [00:14:11] before going to work, she goes to the gym. But the main reason for her coming [00:14:14] here is not exercise, but a much more essential need. [00:14:18] اما دلیل اصلی آمدنش به اینجا نه ورزش بلکه [00:14:22] I had to make this decision [00:14:25] because I had no place to shower. Once, I didn't shower [00:14:29] for a whole week. It feels really terrible, [00:14:32] let me tell you. You feel like a dirty, [00:14:35] stinky homeless person. I thought to myself, [00:14:39] "What should I do now?" Then it occurred to me, [00:14:43] "The gym is good." So I came here. [00:14:46] Her membership at this gym costs 40 euros per month, [00:14:49] a price for continuing a life. [00:14:53] Maria is just one [00:15:27] of the middle-class American citizens who have fallen into poverty [00:15:31] in recent years. Trump supporters believe [00:15:34] that America has officially become great again. [00:15:37] Since the 2008 crisis, the country's economy [00:15:40] has never been so powerful. A boom that Trump [00:15:44] has credited entirely to himself. There has never been a better [00:15:48] time to start the American dream. But contrary [00:15:51] to what the president and his supporters emphasize, [00:15:54] the famous American dream is far from being realized [00:15:58] in America. 40 million people in America [00:16:00] live below the poverty line, and millions of workers [00:16:04] have to do whatever it takes to stay above this line. [00:16:08] Becoming homeless overnight is the biggest fear these Americans [00:16:11] face. You'd better get there soon, [00:16:15] otherwise, an eviction order will be issued, and they'll kick you out of your house. [00:16:19] In some states, falling behind on rent is not a laughing matter at all. [00:16:23] From the sheriff's office, one after another, [00:16:26] while armed officers accompany them, they are thrown out of their homes. [00:16:30] Where should I sleep? [00:16:34] It's hard to eat [00:16:45] and take your medication because you might only have enough money [00:16:48] for one, and nothing will be left for the other. For this reason, [00:16:52] some people have taken a empathetic step to ensure [00:16:55] that these individuals can receive free [00:16:59] medical services. In field hospitals that [00:17:02] are not much different from hospitals in war zones. Here, [00:17:06] the lives of those in the heart of impoverished America, [00:17:09] who cannot even provide for their basic needs, [00:17:13] are clearly visible. San Diego, in Southern California, [00:17:15] has 300 sunny days a year, beaches that extend as far as the eye can see, [00:17:19] and a dreamlike landscape, a perfect picture of postcard California. [00:17:22] رویایی تصویر تمام عیار از کالیفرنیای [00:17:25] This dreamlike lifestyle was once a part of Eric's [00:17:29] daily life. He was a successful computer engineer [00:17:33] who earned 7,000 euros a month. But today, this 53-year-old man [00:17:37] lives only in his car, and to get free food, [00:17:40] he asks for help from the staff of a pizzeria. [00:17:44] کارکنان یک پیتزاشی کمک می گیرد [00:17:46] I'm here to bring [00:17:53] your order. Thank you. [00:17:55] What do you say here? These are the same slices of pizza [00:17:59] they put in their display case. When they stay for a long time, [00:18:03] they keep them for me. They actually donate them to me [00:18:07] so I can escape hunger. Eric comes every night [00:18:10] to pick up some pizza. Thank you very much. [00:18:14] Really, thank you. See you tomorrow. He will share [00:18:17] these unsold slices with other victims of poverty. [00:18:20] Because Eric has been sleeping in this same parking lot for a year and a half. [00:18:24] The same place where Maria, the cleaner, also lives. [00:18:28] His pizzas make his neighbor very happy. [00:18:31] It's a lot. It's a lot. Like [00:18:34] Lori, a 55-year-old Uber driver. Eric used to work very hard, [00:18:39] 50 hours a week. But four years ago, [00:18:42] he suffered from burnout and, along with it, faced [00:18:46] a series of physical problems, including heart trouble, [00:18:50] and could no longer work. He received unemployment benefits [00:18:53] for six months. I thought I could handle it. [00:18:57] I thought I would get better, but I was under a lot of pressure [00:19:01] after several years of constantly going to doctors and treatment, [00:19:05] and my savings were just being spent. [00:19:20] The place where I work is a bit difficult because I have to lift a lady, [00:19:23] and she's very heavy. At 9 PM, [00:19:26] the parking lot gates close. From this moment on, no other [00:19:30] vehicle can enter the parking lot. There is no security guard here at night, [00:19:34] and there is a risk of attack. A few meters away, [00:20:09] Eric prepares to spend another night in his car, [00:20:13] a car whose interior is filled to the maximum. [00:20:17] This former computer engineer sleeps behind the wheel [00:20:20] in a seated position. One thing I've learned [00:20:24] about this situation is that the famous stereotype about homeless people, [00:20:27] that they are lazy and don't want to work [00:20:31] or are drug addicts, is not true. Maybe in some places it's like that, [00:20:35] but most of the people I met in this program [00:20:38] are very hardworking people who want to make progress, [00:20:42] but they have either faced physical problems or for some reason [00:20:46] their work has led them here. Many can't [00:20:49] get out of this situation. For many, it takes [00:20:52] a very long time to get out of this situation. [00:20:55] California is a land [00:20:59] of stark contrasts. Despite being one of the world's [00:21:03] largest economies, an increasing number of its workers [00:21:07] can no longer afford housing. But there is another state [00:21:11] where the existing system is even more ruthless [00:21:14] than California's. [00:21:17] This state is Virginia, [00:21:20] right next to Washington D.C., [00:21:23] and especially in its capital, the city of Richmond. [00:21:27] A city with an industrial past. [00:21:30] Here, a quarter of the population is below [00:21:33] the poverty line. Richmond also holds [00:21:36] another negative record. [00:21:38] This city has one [00:21:42] of the highest rates of forced housing evictions in America, [00:21:45] with 3,000 evictions annually, [00:21:49] a figure 25 times higher than in Paris. [00:21:52] برابر بیشتر از [00:21:53] Evicting tenants [00:21:59] is part of officer Loyall's daily duties from the sheriff's [00:22:03] department. He distributes these yellow papers several [00:22:07] times a week. [00:22:09] Hello, how are you? [00:22:15] Does Candice live here? Yes? All right, okay. [00:22:18] We've set the eviction date [00:22:32] for tomorrow morning. Okay, ma'am, please note [00:22:36] this date. Thank you. [00:22:39] In the state of Virginia, the law is strict. If the rent [00:22:42] is only 5 days late, the landlord has the right [00:22:46] to start the eviction process. A few weeks later, the tenant receives a notice. [00:23:21] And just like when they arrest a dangerous criminal, [00:23:25] they enter the house with weapons drawn. [00:23:28] We are from the Sheriff's Office. [00:23:32] Currently, the tenant is not [00:23:35] at home and has clearly not had time to vacate the premises. [00:23:38] Mr. Chenal, can you change the locks? [00:23:42] All right. The landlord also immediately [00:23:45] reclaims his property. [00:23:47] In France, an eviction takes an average [00:23:52] of a year and a half, but here, it happens almost [00:23:55] in the blink of an eye. [00:23:58] I'm checking the windows now. [00:24:03] Why? [00:24:06] To make sure the house is not mine. [00:24:09] The tenant finally arrives [00:24:11] and is shocked to see what has happened. [00:24:15] She has been renting this house for seven years. [00:24:19] This single mother, who. [00:24:50] needs to negotiate, is driven to the street. Was this the only way to ensure she vacated the house? [00:24:53] That depends on her. Was that really the only way? [00:24:57] She said she would vacate the house before, but she didn't. [00:25:01] Now, maybe the poor thing had nowhere to go. [00:25:05] She never told me that. [00:25:09] اون هیچ وقت اینو به من [00:25:10] Approximately 10 similar [00:25:17] evictions occur daily in Richmond. As a result [00:25:21] of this so-called fast justice, cheap hotels on the outskirts [00:25:25] of the city have become a refuge for those [00:25:28] who have been kicked out of their homes. Some of them stay in these [00:25:31] hotels for a very long time. David Wagwan, 38 years old, [00:25:35] is one of them. What's up, man? How are you? [00:25:38] Same as always. Just another day. [00:25:41] David has been living in this motel for two years since his forced eviction. [00:25:45] On weekends, this father's children come to. [00:25:48] The whole family is here, in short. [00:26:02] This is our small kitchen, where I made eggs for them last night [00:26:06] and cooked hamburgers. Yes, I haven't washed the dishes yet. [00:26:10] We spent time together, played video games, and this is the toilet, [00:26:14] which also has a shower, but that's pretty much it. [00:26:17] Yes, that's its outward [00:26:19] appearance. [00:26:22] Isn't it very difficult to live here for two years? [00:26:26] Yes, man, I'm really suffocating in this room. [00:26:29] Well, it's obvious that when two people are in one room for a long time, [00:26:33] many problems arise. It's completely natural [00:26:37] for these things to happen, in my opinion. David's wife has a stable job [00:26:40] in insurance. As a couple, they cannot afford [00:26:43] a larger or even cheaper apartment, and they are still stuck in this small room. [00:26:47] This is because the previous eviction still haunts them. [00:26:50] Look, at first, he tried too, but when you go around [00:26:54] and everywhere you go, they don't give you a home, you really get tired and discouraged. [00:26:58] They tell you that you have an eviction history, meaning it shows that, for example, [00:27:01] you haven't paid your rent for two months. [00:27:14] In Europe, such a thing is almost unthinkable, but here, landlords [00:27:18] can access a tenant's records with just a few clicks. [00:27:21] A systematic surveillance that Martin Wegbreit, [00:27:25] a tenant rights advocate, has condemned. [00:27:27] مدافع حقوق مستجران آن را محکوم [00:27:30] Well, this is a public database, [00:27:34] meaning anyone can access it and see the information, [00:27:38] and even search by name. Let's try a common American name. [00:27:41] Okay, this is it. Mary Gillespie. [00:27:44] امتحان کنیم خب اینم از این مری [00:27:48] Very good. Now we see. Yes, here it is. [00:27:52] Look, five eviction records have been registered. [00:27:55] Ten years ago, this tenant delayed rent payment several [00:27:58] times. Even relatively small amounts, like $291, [00:28:02] can have severe consequences. [00:28:06] Well, if I were a landlord, I would look at this information and say, [00:28:09] "It's true that this happened ten years ago, but I think [00:28:13] this person is a high risk. I don't want to rent [00:28:17] the house to them." If anything bad happens to you, [00:28:20] it doesn't matter. For example, if your work hours are cut [00:28:24] or you get sick and can't work for a month, or you have [00:28:28] to pay for car repairs, or you have hospital bills, [00:28:31] or anything else that even slightly disrupts your budget, [00:28:35] you have to pull yourself together very quickly and make up for the arrears, [00:28:38] otherwise, an eviction order will be issued against you, and you'll be kicked [00:28:42] out of your home. In fact, the tenant always lives under the shadow [00:28:46] of constant threat. [00:28:48] Every day, 6,300 people across America are evicted [00:28:52] from their homes. Although in cities, finding shelter and accommodation [00:28:55] is the main source of anxiety, there is a region [00:28:59] where for some of its people, the biggest concern is simply [00:29:03] being able to put food on the table. Welcome [00:29:06] to rural America. Appalachia, a mountainous region [00:29:10] in the eastern part of the country. [00:29:14] Appalachia was once widely [00:29:20] known for coal production, but these days, [00:29:23] almost all of its mines have closed. It is often said [00:29:27] that the American dream has been lost [00:29:30] somewhere along the way to this region.
