Hello. Good morning. [00:00:27] The senior spokesperson for the armed forces, in response to [00:00:30] the projections and false claims of Commander Mosak [00:00:33] of CENTCOM about the escorting of oil tankers and the extraction of one billion [00:00:37] barrels of oil from the Strait of Hormuz over the past two months, said that [00:00:41] these statements are more of a failed [00:00:44] psychological operation to boost the morale [00:00:47] of the tired and worn-out terrorist forces [00:00:51] of America in the region and to justify America's exorbitant financial [00:00:55] and human costs in the region. It cannot [00:00:58] change the reality of the withdrawal of that country's aggressive [00:01:02] army from the region. General Shekarchi emphasized that the initiative [00:01:06] in the Strait of Hormuz is still in the hands [00:01:09] of the powerful armed forces of Iran. [00:01:11] The spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior, while emphasizing [00:01:15] the necessity of preserving national cohesion as one of the most important missions [00:01:18] of the Ministry of Interior, presented a report [00:01:22] on the inauguration of projects during Government Week and the provision [00:01:25] of essential goods. In this year that we [00:01:29] have been constantly engaged in war, [00:01:32] about 36,000 [00:01:35] projects were inaugurated across the country during Government Week [00:01:39] in the field of government projects, and about [00:01:42] 152 private sector projects. [00:01:45] These are in the field of municipalities, rural councils, and infrastructure [00:01:48] areas. [00:01:50] Almost no halt in the developmental process [00:01:54] of the country and our projects is seen. In the field of [00:01:57] commodity supply, too, things are progressing [00:02:00] well. Our dear people [00:02:03] should not worry and should not be influenced [00:02:06] by the enemy's false propaganda. Approximately [00:02:09] 1200 programs will be [00:02:12] implemented during Sacred Defense Week. [00:02:16] The head of the Central Staff for Commemorating Sacred Defense Week announced [00:02:20] this news, saying that the operational areas of the Sacred Defense, [00:02:23] museums, and memorials of unknown martyrs across [00:02:26] the country are also especially ready this week to host people. [00:02:30] General Kargar also announced [00:02:34] the exhibition of downed American equipment in Dasht-e Mohyar, Isfahan, [00:02:37] in a museum, and also the depiction of this clear defeat [00:02:41] of the Americans. [00:02:42] More than 80 works [00:02:45] from 64 illustrators from different cities [00:02:49] of the country gathered in a group exhibition titled [00:02:52] "Together for Iran" and showcased works of various experiences [00:02:56] and social solidarity during the war. [00:03:00] This exhibition is being displayed at [00:03:03] Negarestan Garden of Book. [00:03:05] The "Together [00:03:09] for Iran" illustration exhibition looks at recent [00:03:13] events and the lived experiences of the Iranian people [00:03:16] in facing war. The language of art is a [00:03:20] good language to express, narrate, [00:03:24] and immortalize. With a deep gaze [00:03:27] and from a feminine perspective and from a family [00:03:31] perspective, they were able to depict the chosen nation [00:03:34] of Iran and what they created during [00:03:38] these past six months. This group exhibition was organized by [00:03:42] Ketab Ara Group in cooperation with the Soreh Omid Institute [00:03:45] at Bagh-e Ketab in Tehran. One of the [00:03:48] ideas is to take this exhibition to the streets in squares [00:03:52] where people gather at night, because this is a warm reflection [00:03:55] of the people. The works that reached this exhibition [00:03:59] are visual narratives of concepts such as homeland, steadfastness, [00:04:03] resistance, courage, social solidarity, flag, war experiences, [00:04:06] future, and hope. Since our [00:04:10] leader was martyred and it was somewhat [00:04:14] simultaneous with the martyrdom of the children of Minab school, [00:04:18] I used this simultaneity [00:04:21] and portrayed in my drawing that the leader [00:04:25] came for the children, and the children are flying with him [00:04:28] towards the sky. I am a mother myself, and with [00:04:32] what happened to the children of Minab, I just wanted [00:04:36] to take a small step [00:04:39] in this direction. The subject of the funeral [00:04:42] of the martyred leader and the narrative of the presence and empathy [00:04:45] of the people in bidding farewell to the heroes and martyrs of this [00:04:49] land is also among the other topics of interest [00:04:53] to artists in this event. In this exhibition, [00:04:57] more than 80 works by 64 illustrators [00:05:00] from across the country are on display [00:05:03] at the Negarestan Garden of Book in Tehran. Mehdi Sarbazi, [00:05:07] IRIB News Agency. The spokesperson [00:05:10] for Yemen's armed forces [00:05:12] announced details of extensive military operations [00:05:16] deep inside Saudi Arabian territory [00:05:19] in a statement. Yahya Saree said that Yemen's armed forces [00:05:22] carried out two unique military operations with a large number of ballistic and cruise missiles, [00:05:26] as well as drones. Yahya Saree added [00:05:30] that in the first operation, important sensitive targets in Riyadh, [00:05:34] the capital of Saudi Arabia, and in the second operation, Aramco company [00:05:36] in Yanbu, were attacked. The spokesperson for Yemen's armed forces [00:05:40] emphasized that these operations, [00:05:43] carried out in response to the continued brutal attacks by Saudi Arabia [00:05:47] against the people of Yemen, were successful [00:05:51] and caused widespread fires at the targeted [00:05:55] locations. The American Automobile [00:05:58] Association announced in a report that the price [00:06:01] of diesel in this country reached a new record, averaging [00:06:05] $6.43 per gallon. [00:06:08] According to this report, this figure shows [00:06:12] an increase of 40 cents compared to last week. [00:06:15] The average price of gasoline has reached $4.44 [00:06:18] per gallon, which is almost [00:06:22] 50% higher than before the start of the war against Iran. [00:06:26] However, the price of diesel is increasing [00:06:29] at a faster pace and has now reached a significant [00:06:32] figure of $6.43 per gallon, [00:06:36] which is a 47-cent increase in one week [00:06:39] and nearly 90 cents compared to last month. [00:06:43] According to the American Automobile Association, [00:06:46] the price of diesel in the US is now more than 60% [00:06:50] higher than pre-war levels before the US and Zionist regime's attack [00:06:53] on Iran. The US President [00:06:57] has banned members of three news media outlets [00:07:01] from the White House. This is [00:07:04] not new for White House [00:07:07] correspondents, though. I asked him why I couldn't enter, [00:07:11] and he said that [00:07:42] this issue is above his level of authority. The accusation against [00:07:46] these media outlets is publishing news that Trump doesn't like [00:07:50] and considers false. Let's remember [00:07:54] that he previously defined fake news as [00:07:57] reports that are negative. In his view, fake news [00:08:00] is exactly this. He doesn't talk about incorrect reports, [00:08:04] but rather reports that are not positive [00:08:07] in his view. Media experts believe that Trump is going [00:08:11] through difficult days. Recently, images of extensive damage [00:08:14] following Iran's attacks on several US bases, [00:08:18] including Arifjan base in Kuwait, have been published. Now Trump [00:08:22] is using every means to prevent the disclosure of information [00:08:25] about the war against Iran. For him, the easiest way is to erase [00:08:29] the problem and impose restrictions on media activities. [00:08:32] Trump is currently in a very difficult [00:08:36] situation. He is a president with a very low approval [00:08:40] rating in polls, especially since the start [00:08:43] of the war against Iran. These media outlets, which [00:08:47] are increasingly disliked by Trump, say that America is in a sensitive period [00:08:51] and should not ignore the consequences of war with Iran. [00:08:54] We are in a situation where [00:08:58] the country is at war, and gasoline prices have also risen. [00:09:01] This period is a critical time in our country's history. [00:09:05] As someone who has worked in the media for a long time, [00:09:09] I say, if your president or the party you belong [00:09:12] to is attacking the First Amendment of the Constitution, [00:09:16] why should you even work for him? This is against [00:09:20] Republican values. CNN, Politico, [00:09:23] and MSNBC all stated in statements that [00:09:27] they will defend their rights with all their might. This is while even media [00:09:30] outlets aligned with Trump have questioned his actions. Banning [00:09:34] their presence in the White House is not a solution. Do not [00:09:38] ban their activities, otherwise, one day they will do the same against us. [00:09:42] Ghazal Badiei, IRIB News Agency. [00:09:44] Thank you very much for your company. Goodbye. [00:10:00] In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. [00:10:20] Look at [00:10:22] the sun. [00:10:25] It's [00:10:26] smiling. [00:10:29] Say hello to God, in your hope [00:10:32] of Iranians. Hello [00:10:35] to the future. [00:10:38] Look at [00:10:40] the sun [00:10:42] that is [00:10:44] smiling. [00:10:47] Say hello to [00:10:49] tomorrow. Hello [00:10:52] to the future. [00:11:01] In your hope, O God, in the name of the dear Lord, for everything is from Him. Good morning [00:11:05] to you, dear viewers of Khabar channel. [00:11:09] I hope you are well. With pride, we present [00:11:12] today's reporter's greeting to your kind eyes.

My greetings to [00:11:31] you, every moment I die. [00:11:34] My greetings to you, the quarrel [00:11:37] of my pain. [00:11:40] You are the one for whom I'd sacrifice [00:11:44] until the end of the world. [00:11:46] I am the king of the world with your phone call. [00:11:50] Only you, sir, are the path [00:11:52] to salvation. [00:13:13] It's true that I'm small, [00:13:17] but if you come, we're all [00:13:20] your helpers. Come so that this [00:13:24] world may be filled [00:13:26] with joy. [00:13:29] Neyal and Rolak and [00:13:32] Arab and Turk and Farous, [00:13:35] Baloch and Kilik and Kurd, and [00:13:38] they all became one for [00:13:41] Nadardova. [00:13:45] Young and old, all are happy [00:13:48] and have given their hearts for your love. [00:13:52] And [00:13:54] the angels [00:13:56] are full of emotion [00:13:58] at the arrival of your father. [00:14:01] And the angels are full [00:14:05] of emotion. And you became my hope [00:14:09] in this life. You know I've loved [00:14:13] you, sir, since childhood. [00:14:17] Can I be your companion, sir? [00:14:19] Whatever you say, I'll obey. [00:14:23] Sir, to the point. [00:14:47] Good morning to you. Happy Eid to you once again. [00:14:50] And now, we will begin [00:14:54] today's programs in this segment, considering [00:14:58] that we are on the verge of Sacred Defense Week, [00:15:01] with the programs that have been planned for this week. [00:15:05] I will host Mr. Karamollah, Director General of Arts at the Foundation of Martyrs [00:15:08] and Veteran Affairs, in the studio of Khabar channel. Greetings [00:15:12] to you, good morning, happy Eid. Thank you. [00:15:15] I also extend my greetings and good wishes to all [00:15:19] your good viewers and your esteemed program. May you be well. [00:15:23] Thank you very much. For holding Sacred Defense Week [00:15:27] this year, an 18-member staff has been formed. [00:15:30] Can you explain what measures have been taken? Let me tell you and your viewers [00:15:34] that the staff for holding [00:15:37] Sacred Defense Week held its meetings [00:15:41] about two months ago, under the responsibility [00:15:45] of the Foundation for the Preservation of Works and Publication of Sacred Defense. [00:15:48] Coordination meetings were held with the member committees. The members [00:15:52] of the specialized committees were identified and announced. [00:15:55] The Foundation of Martyrs and Veteran Affairs also took part in this field [00:15:59] as the Committee of Sacrifice and Martyrdom [00:16:03] in this composition. [00:16:05] Well, you know that the field of sacrifice [00:16:09] and the field of Sacred Defense is a vast [00:16:12] field, and its functions, concepts, [00:16:15] and themes are named on different days [00:16:19] and progress, and numerous programs, more than [00:16:22] a thousand programs, are designed, and these are held [00:16:25] throughout the week across the country. [00:16:29] The Committee of Sacrifice and Martyrdom also, under the influence of this [00:16:32] entire staff, is organized [00:16:35] under the presidency [00:16:37] of the Deputy Minister of Cultural and Educational Affairs of the Foundation [00:16:41] of Martyrs and Veteran Affairs and plans its work. In [00:16:45] this regard, 46 programs have been designed, which [00:16:48] I present to you. Please, if you agree, let's talk [00:16:52] about the programs, especially those that are more special [00:16:56] and larger in scale. If you could explain one by one what [00:16:59] measures have been taken, especially in this committee that you mentioned, [00:17:03] the Committee of Sacrifice and Martyrdom, which is one of the important [00:17:06] committees that have held meetings. Yes, you are right. [00:17:09] As I told you, the Committee of Martyrs [00:17:13] and Veterans, in fact, pursues its activities [00:17:17] in the general framework of the staff in promoting [00:17:21] the culture of sacrifice and martyrdom. It has come and [00:17:24] in various sections, for example, in the field [00:17:27] of ceremonies and conferences, [00:17:30] which is an important part of the functions [00:17:33] of this committee, we have the holding of national [00:17:35] and nationwide ceremonies. [00:18:07] We also have the program of cleansing and anointing [00:18:10] the tomb of the martyred leader of the community and his respected [00:18:14] family, which is exactly what Imam Ali [00:18:17] said. We have visits with the [00:18:20] families of the esteemed martyrs. We continue this [00:18:24] visiting movement, and the emphasis of the Supreme Leader [00:18:28] on visiting and caring for the families of martyrs [00:18:31] and veterans is being pursued. We also have the holding [00:18:35] of the second memorial. [00:19:01] It is very extensive, both geographically [00:19:04] and in terms of the number of attendees. Exactly. [00:19:28] We are holding the commemoration of the Mina martyrs [00:19:32] under the title of "White Tulips" in Tehran, God willing. [00:19:35] That is also there. It is a very special [00:19:38] program and has its own special audience. [00:19:42] We are holding the third conference to honor [00:19:44] the selected participants of the National Sacrifice Campaign, [00:19:48] "I Write," in Tehran, in memory of the martyred [00:19:51] students of Mina. We hold this every year. In "I Write," [00:19:55] all students at different levels [00:19:58] write their personal notes about a topic in the field [00:20:02] of promoting the culture of sacrifice. Your specific topic is Mina. [00:20:06] We have urban [00:20:17] and rural areas. This year, in an ecosystemic [00:20:20] combination across the country, the emphasis [00:20:24] of the esteemed President of the Foundation of Martyrs [00:20:28] and Veteran Affairs was that in all these cemeteries, [00:20:30] especially in rural areas, with a focus [00:20:34] on the cultural ecosystem and the existing potentials [00:20:37] in those very villages and localities, they [00:20:41] hold memorials. This is a very special and new work that is being pursued. [00:20:45] We have Quranic gatherings during Sacred Defense [00:20:48] Week in eight provinces: Alborz, Greater Tehran, [00:20:51] Razavi Khorasan, Semnan, cities of Tehran Province, [00:20:55] Fars, Kerman, and Gilan. We hold [00:20:58] Quranic gatherings. We have poetry recitations [00:21:00] and poetry nights during Sacred Defense Week [00:21:04] in four provinces: Alborz, Greater Tehran, Khuzestan, [00:21:08] and Gilan. And Kerman, I apologize. [00:21:11] We have the holding of Sacred Defense storytelling [00:21:15] gatherings during Sacred Defense Week in five provinces: Isfahan, [00:21:18] Semnan, Qazvin, Gilan, and Lorestan. We are participating [00:21:22] in the holding of the "Starry Nights" program, which is a very good [00:21:25] program held in Greater Tehran and also in Kerman. [00:21:29] We are also participating in the holding of the automobile [00:21:33] rally conference, which we are pursuing. [00:21:36] In the field of honoring and respecting, [00:21:40] we have the issue of appreciating the elite children of martyrs [00:21:44] in schools of eight provinces. You know [00:21:48] that every year, we select the outstanding students [00:21:51] from the children of martyrs and veterans, and [00:21:54] from among the children of veterans and martyrs, we choose [00:21:58] the best. We are pursuing this section in this area in eight [00:22:02] provinces. We are advancing this work in schools [00:22:04] of eight provinces. In the cultural, [00:22:08] artistic, and sports fields, we have the launch of the first National [00:22:11] Hosseinieh of Martyrs Festival. As you are aware, "Hosseinieh of Martyrs" [00:22:15] refers to those Hosseiniehs that are in martyr cemeteries [00:22:19] and in the families of martyrs. Some of the homes of martyrs [00:22:22] have become Hosseiniehs of Martyrs. We have a ceremony called [00:22:26] the National Hosseinieh of Martyrs Festival, the homes of martyrs, and the cultural [00:22:29] centers of martyr cemeteries. We are also launching a comprehensive [00:22:33] information website for covered cultural centers. We are pursuing [00:22:36] this. We have the ringing of the sacrifice and resistance [00:22:40] bell in all Shahid schools nationwide, with the reading of the message [00:22:44] of the esteemed Vice President [00:22:46] and the President of the Martyrs Foundation. [00:22:50] This is currently being done. We are implementing the national [00:22:53] campaign "You also tell about the stars" with the participation of the Martyrs Foundation [00:22:57] and the efforts of Varsoon Institute. We are implementing [00:23:01] the "Iran Mehr" project for the independence and welcome [00:23:04] of the children of Sacred Defense martyrs, the second [00:23:07] and third, and a special program [00:23:10] for martyred students on the reopening of schools. [00:23:13] This also involves donating 20,000 [00:23:17] packages of stationery to talented students [00:23:21] in cooperation with MI. Let's move faster, [00:23:24] considering that we have only about a minute [00:23:28] and a half left. If you have the most important highlights [00:23:31] in different sections, if I mention the unveilings, [00:23:34] please do. We have some unveilings. We have both artistic [00:23:38] responsibilities and the opening [00:23:41] of important centers. In the artistic unveiling [00:23:44] and opening, we have the unveiling of a collection of artistic productions, [00:23:48] the music video "Pahlavan Baba." [00:24:06] with the theme of Martyr Mahmoud Dehghani and a music video with the theme of Martyr [00:24:10] Mohammad Ali Taheri's father in Isfahan province. We have two documentaries [00:24:14] titled "Tajabi," the mother of the missing martyr [00:24:17] Amiri, and the documentary "Golil." We have Martyr Aref [00:24:20] and the Cleric from North Khorasan province. [00:24:24] We have short films, seven-minute short films, and [00:24:28] the unveiling of 46 book titles [00:24:30] from Shahid Publications in the field of sacrifice and resistance. [00:24:34] But in the field of openings, [00:24:37] thankfully, we did not have a cultural and rehabilitation [00:24:40] center in Hormozgan province. Thankfully, [00:24:44] we are opening the Eisar Rehabilitation Center [00:24:47] in Hormozgan province. We are opening the project for the construction [00:24:50] of the Martyrs' Cemetery on Hormoz Island. [00:24:53] And in the field of health, we have the health [00:24:56] monitoring and free medical visit program [00:25:00] for the families of martyrs. God bless you and all your colleagues. Thank you. [00:25:04] You mentioned the programs quickly. God willing, we will host other esteemed guests [00:25:08] or you yourself, and we will have detailed explanations [00:25:11] about these projects as they are inaugurated one by one. Thank you, Mr. [00:25:15] Karamollah, Director General of Arts at the Foundation of Martyrs and Veteran Affairs, [00:25:18] who came to the Khabar channel studio. Let's take a short media break and we'll be back. [00:25:51] All my life, [00:25:55] every night, [00:25:57] I've waited [00:26:00] for you, [00:26:02] standing by. [00:26:06] Maybe one night [00:26:08] you'll come. [00:26:11] Oh, all alone. [00:26:14] Days have [00:26:17] passed, and cities [00:26:19] are in sorrow, [00:26:23] separated. [00:26:25] The caravan [00:26:41] left behind a fire. This is [00:26:45] a sad and silent remnant. [00:26:48] Your love [00:26:53] turned me to ashes. [00:26:55] In the hands [00:26:58] of the wind, I was cast [00:27:02] away. Before blooming, [00:27:05] I was plucked away. [00:27:09] Before blooming, I was plucked [00:27:12] away. [00:27:15] May my heart be strong in your absence. [00:28:03] We shouldn't rush too much, really, to win medals, because a part of [00:28:07] these fields we've participated in is mostly for gaining experience, and the kids get to see [00:28:11] the field and hopefully make good things happen in the future. But [00:28:14] anyway, good things are happening. Our wrestling is good. [00:28:18] Of course, but in the sports that are ending today, like wrestling, [00:28:21] it's the last few days, but today, for example, in martial arts, Afshin Salimi [00:28:25] was able to win in the 65 kg category. He defeated the Bahraini representative and has now gone [00:28:29] to the next round. In martial arts, we also have two other representatives. [00:28:33] In women's canoeing, men's backstroke, [00:28:36] 100-meter swimming, time trial cycling, our representatives [00:28:40] have been seen on the field and have started their competition. Now we have to see [00:28:43] what will happen next. Today, our national [00:28:47] Olympic team, Iran's Olympic team, is playing against China. We won our first [00:28:50] game against the UAE. If we win today, we can advance to the next round. In basketball, [00:28:54] Iran and China are competing. The bodybuilding federation was also suspended, [00:28:58] right? It's a long story. We covered it in this "Hello Reporter" segment. [00:29:02] If you remember, its elections were held. [00:29:05] It had a controversial election that goes back to a year ago. To make a long story short, [00:29:09] we held an election, and then they said that the credentials [00:29:12] of this new president were fake. The election was canceled. [00:29:16] We had an interim president for a year, then [00:29:19] we came back, and now the election has been held again, and they say it's suspended again. [00:29:23] We have a very short break. If the guys can air this quickly, let's come back and give a brief [00:29:27] explanation if possible. I would be grateful if my colleagues would do it. [00:29:30] Thank you very much. Until now, [00:29:33] regarding the suspension, we have not received [00:29:37] any email to this moment, [00:29:39] and this issue has not yet been communicated [00:29:43] to us in writing. And the federation, [00:29:46] according to the calendar, is carrying out its tasks [00:29:49] and moving forward. God willing. So, activities are being carried out. Activities [00:29:53] are being carried out. Yes. Well, Mr. Karimi, this is a 10-year-old interview [00:29:56] of mine with Mr. Mojtaba Maleki, the president of the bodybuilding federation. [00:30:00] He said that no letter has been received yet. The interesting thing is that we have two [00:30:03] international federations. The letter that reached the Ministry of Sports [00:30:07] was from a federation that the IOC itself doesn't recognize. The explanation is lengthy. [00:30:11] Thank you. The upcoming news segment is presented to you, dear viewers. [00:30:26] In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Hello and good morning to you, dear [00:30:30] and esteemed compatriots. Welcome to this news segment. [00:30:33] The Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council wrote on social media that Iran's [00:30:36] seven conditions for starting any negotiations have been [00:30:40] announced to the US government. The Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council emphasized [00:30:43] that Tehran's message is clear and unambiguous. If Washington [00:30:47] wants to get out of the predicament it created and not get [00:30:51] caught up in it further, there is no other way than to accept [00:30:54] Iran's rights and conditions. [00:30:58] The Telegraph wrote that Iran proved
