In fact, we don't [00:00:03] see any Western country or official supporting [00:00:07] them in France and Western countries. I think this is a very [00:00:10] important point. Thank you very much, Ms. Asupa, international affairs expert. [00:00:14] Thank you very much to all dear viewers. [00:00:17] We will take a short break and watch the 23:30 news with [00:00:21] my colleague Mr. Sadeghi. We will be back with Today's World. [00:00:24] Hello. [00:00:38] Good evening. The IRGC spokesman said that in the Battle of [00:00:42] Harran, the army of Crassus was destroyed by [00:00:44] the Parthian men, and in the Battle of [00:00:47] Edessa, the army of Valerian was captured by [00:00:51] the Sasanian Shoran peace. General Mohebbi added that in the Battle of [00:00:54] Ramadan, the army of Abastin in the Persian Gulf with [00:00:57] power. Western civilization will return to [00:01:04] the Gulf of Pigs with humiliation. We are waiting. [00:01:08] The Chief of Staff and the Coordinating Deputy of the Army [00:01:10] said that the Iranian armed [00:01:14] forces will act wherever necessary to strike [00:01:18] the enemy. Admiral Sayyari said [00:01:21] that the Iranian nation has proven to the enemy [00:01:24] that it stands against them until [00:01:27] its integrity. and the revolution is preserved. [00:01:31] We [00:01:34] strongly defended, we strongly defend, [00:01:37] and wherever necessary, we will [00:01:40] do what is necessary for us to strike [00:01:44] the enemy. We had struck their vessels, [00:01:48] we will strike them now, and if it happens again, we will strike. [00:01:52] We have capabilities, we have capabilities [00:01:55] that our capabilities [00:01:58] and our facilities are known to everyone in the world. [00:02:02] The head of the Atomic [00:02:05] Energy Organization emphasized that they will continue [00:02:08] the plan to achieve one thousand megawatts of nuclear power with strength. [00:02:12] The Bushehr [00:02:15] nuclear power plant is among [00:02:18] the top 10 power plants in the world [00:02:21] in terms of safety and operation in the WANO [00:02:25] assessment. This quality and this [00:02:27] achievement is [00:02:31] not something that can be stopped. It must be repeated, and we will continue [00:02:35] the 20,000 megawatt project with the help of God. [00:02:38] During the war, our construction project was not suspended [00:02:41] and will not [00:02:42] be suspended. [00:02:46] He also announced the return of 135 employees of this [00:02:49] company to the Bushehr power plant. The head of the Rostom [00:02:52] company announced that the company has increased the number of its employees [00:02:56] who have returned to the Bushehr nuclear power plant in Iran [00:02:58] to 135 people. [00:03:02] Alexey Likhachov emphasized that these employees are working [00:03:06] in all three facilities of the Bushehr power plant, [00:03:09] two units under construction and one [00:03:12] operating unit. Likhachov [00:03:15] had previously announced on September 22 the presence of 63 Russian [00:03:18] experts at the Bushehr nuclear power plant. A statistic that indicates [00:03:22] a twofold increase in the number of Rosatom employees [00:03:26] at the Bushehr power plant. Russian forces who were present [00:03:30] for the construction of new units of the Bushehr nuclear power plant [00:03:33] in Iran left the Bushehr power plant during [00:03:36] the American and Zionist regime's aggression against Iran, and after the war, [00:03:40] their return process gradually began. [00:03:43] Local sources report that Yemeni armed [00:03:47] forces have taken control of areas at the entrance to the city [00:03:50] of Taiz. According to local media reports, [00:03:54] the Taiz Al-Misra [00:03:56] road at the entrance to the city of Taiz has also been cut. [00:04:00] Saudi mercenaries have no way to deliver supplies and aid [00:04:04] to the surrounding fronts of Taiz. [00:04:07] Also, some sources announced that Yemeni [00:04:11] armed forces broke the defensive lines [00:04:14] of Saudi mercenaries in Zabab and reached [00:04:18] the central prison of Taiz. On the other side of [00:04:21] the battlefield, Saudi fighter jets targeted [00:04:24] the provinces of Amran, Al-Hudaydah, and Taiz. Yahya Saree, spokesman for the Yemeni [00:04:28] armed forces, also said: We warn all airlines [00:04:32] and passengers at Saudi airports and airspace [00:04:35] not to be present near these [00:04:39] airports because these airports, with the exception [00:04:42] of Mecca and Medina airports, are [00:04:45] the operational areas of the Yemeni armed forces. [00:04:49] Thank you for your attention. [00:04:52] I invite you to continue watching Today's World [00:04:55] with my colleague, Mr. Azimzadeh. [00:04:58] Please pay attention. [00:05:13] The statement of the Yemeni armed forces was issued [00:05:16] an hour ago. In this statement, it was stated that 124 [00:05:20] attacks took place in the last 24 hours by Saudi [00:05:24] fighter jets on various areas, including around [00:05:27] Taiz, Sana'a, Hudaydah, and also [00:05:30] Hajjah, west of Maghrib. The total number [00:05:33] of attacks by the Saudi [00:05:36] enemy on Yemen has reached more than 2,000, [00:05:39] meaning 2,058 [00:05:41] cases. In the field [00:05:45] of Yemen, the Yemeni armed forces succeeded [00:05:48] in reaching the western entrance of Taiz city [00:05:51] and tightening the siege of this city. [00:05:54] Let's watch the report of my colleague, Mr. Mohaghegh. This is the latest [00:05:57] attack by [00:06:02] Saudi planes on Taiz province. Here is the new Ajeel [00:06:05] school in Al-Armah village. Al-Masirah television network also [00:06:09] reported a Saudi air attack on a commercial [00:06:13] center in the Sharjab area in the same province. [00:06:16] In this attack, 3 Yemeni citizens were martyred [00:06:20] and a number of others were injured. [00:06:23] The Yemeni Ministry of Health announced [00:06:27] that in less than 40 days, Saudi attacks [00:06:30] have led to the martyrdom of 91 people and the injury [00:06:34] of 168 others. According to the ministry, [00:06:37] 60% of the victims are women and children. [00:06:41] The spokesman for the Yemeni armed forces announced in a [00:06:45] statement that in response to Saudi crimes, Saudi [00:06:48] airports will be the main targets of the Yemeni army's [00:06:51] attacks. The Yemeni army has targeted Riyadh airport, [00:06:55] one of Saudi Arabia's [00:06:57] largest aviation centers, with missile attacks. [00:07:00] Following what has been described as repeated attacks [00:07:03] by the Yemeni army, operations at Riyadh airport [00:07:06] have been severely disrupted. At the same time, international [00:07:10] airlines continue to warn about the dangers of continued [00:07:13] flights in Saudi airspace, and hundreds of domestic [00:07:16] and international flights have been canceled. Saudi officials [00:07:20] decided to hold classes remotely in the capital's [00:07:23] schools. Saudi Arabia targeted everything in Yemen and [00:07:27] destroyed the country's infrastructure. But now it claims that [00:07:31] airports are civilian facilities and should not [00:07:34] be targeted under international law. [00:07:37] Yemeni military sources announced that the army is [00:07:41] advancing in the districts of [00:08:42] The statement of the Yemeni armed forces mentions four [00:08:46] stages and four operations. Specifically, King Khalid [00:08:49] Airport in Riyadh was hit in three [00:08:53] stages. The fourth terminal [00:08:56] of this airport was also hit today, [00:08:59] according to Saudi media reports. Shiqdaq, [00:09:02] which is a gas facility in eastern Saudi Arabia, [00:09:06] was hit, and the oil facility [00:09:10] of Tanajib [00:09:12] in eastern Saudi Arabia was also hit. [00:09:16] Also, their third largest airport, King Fahd Airport [00:09:20] in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, has [00:09:24] been shut down, like Riyadh Airport. [00:09:27] We will talk more about the developments in Yemen [00:09:30] with Mr. Seyyed Hadi Seyyed Afqahi, an expert on West [00:09:34] Asian affairs. Mr. Seyyed Afqahi, good evening. [00:09:37] In the ground front, the Yemeni armed [00:09:41] forces had many [00:09:46] liberations, but in the internal front of Saudi Arabia, it was perhaps not thought that [00:09:50] they could shut down two of their largest [00:09:54] airports like this. In the name of God, the Most [00:09:58] Gracious, the Most Merciful. I greet you, Azimzadeh, [00:10:01] and the viewers and wish you a good [00:10:05] night. Long live. The issue of [00:10:08] Yemen is becoming more and more complicated [00:10:11] day by day, and its repercussions are apparently [00:10:15] reaching beyond the battle of [00:10:18] Yemen and Saudi Arabia to other [00:10:21] places. The field issue [00:10:24] was well addressed by both Mr. Mohaghegh, [00:10:27] my colleague, and Your Excellency, who pointed [00:10:31] out that the operations are still continuing [00:10:34] with power, steadfastness, and complete field [00:10:38] awareness, with the Yemeni [00:10:41] armed forces advancing, and also, [00:10:44] the issue of the advance or counterattacks [00:10:48] launched by the Saudi mercenary forces [00:10:51] are met with heavy and painful defeats [00:10:55] and material and equipment [00:10:58] losses. Contrary to the claims [00:11:02] of the Saudi media fleet, [00:11:05] both at the global and regional levels [00:11:08] in cyberspace, their army of [00:11:11] Sadar, which almost [00:11:14] liberated all the areas that the armed forces [00:11:18] and army of Yemen had captured, while [00:11:21] the media reports published by the networks [00:11:25] linked to the Sana'a government are completely [00:11:29] reliable and up-to-date and hourly and online, [00:11:33] this field issue still continues [00:11:36] with steadfastness in the liberated areas [00:11:39] and is preserved, and in the areas [00:11:43] where the enemy tried, especially in the heights [00:11:47] overlooking Al-Mukha and Khawkhah and Bab [00:11:50] al-Mandab and Taiz, all operations [00:11:53] failed, while they insist that some important [00:11:57] strongholds and important positions, especially [00:12:00] the Kahboub heights, are still under [00:12:03] the control of the mercenary forces loyal [00:12:06] to Saudi Arabia. But let me, Mr. Azimzadeh, [00:12:10] make a point about the [00:12:13] political aspects of this conflict and crisis, [00:12:16] which in a statement issued today by [00:12:20] Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan, and [00:12:23] even Egypt joined, strongly condemned [00:12:27] the actions taken by the Yemeni [00:12:30] armed forces, whether against [00:12:34] the oil facilities of the Saudis, [00:12:36] which are their economic lifeline, [00:12:40] or the expansion [00:12:42] of targeting other airports. King [00:12:46] Fahd Dammam Airport was also targeted, [00:12:48] and also some airports in [00:12:52] the three occupied Yemeni provinces. [00:13:25] meaning that for now, we don't intend to intervene, but [00:13:28] logistical support such as [00:13:31] the installation of Patriot and Patriot systems [00:13:34] around sensitive military [00:13:38] and oil facilities, as well as important [00:13:41] airports like King Khalid Airport in Riyadh [00:13:44] and other areas, we have installed them, [00:13:48] and American advisors are also present in [00:13:51] the war operations room of Saudi Arabia and its allies. [00:13:55] Therefore, the issue of Yemen is becoming [00:13:59] more and more complicated, and Saudi Arabia, [00:14:01] which was very negligent and treated [00:14:05] this issue easily and superficially, [00:14:08] and thought that with an alliance called [00:14:12] the Mecca Alliance or the support of [00:14:16] other Gulf Cooperation Council countries, their high-sounding [00:14:18] statements have not been able to stop [00:14:22] the advance of the army forces [00:14:26] on the ground, nor to stop [00:14:29] the drones, ballistic missiles, and precision [00:14:33] drones of the Yemeni army. Mr. Seyyed Afqahi, [00:14:37] the most important question that has arisen now [00:14:40] is that the Saudis had made many arms [00:14:43] purchases, that famous $10 billion deal [00:14:47] during Trump's first presidential term, and [00:14:50] after that, they had a lot of purchases. [00:14:53] In the defensive part, they have various [00:14:57] systems like Patriot and other systems around, [00:15:01] at least we can confidently say, Riyadh, which [00:15:05] has many more around it, especially [00:15:08] Al-Kharj base, which is controlled by the Americans. [00:15:12] In that base, which is about 80 [00:15:15] kilometers or less from the southeast [00:15:18] of Riyadh, there are also many systems. The question [00:15:22] arises whether some of these systems are not working [00:15:26] or if the power of the Yemenis is much [00:15:29] greater than what the Saudis were claiming at [00:15:32] the beginning of this battle, more than a month [00:15:36] ago. When they started, they probably [00:15:39] did not have this idea and started with [00:15:42] a lot of claims, but now in the field of [00:15:46] action, we see that Yemeni missiles and drones [00:15:50] are hitting, and the hits are very heavy. [00:15:53] What do you think is the reason? Are we seeing a scenario [00:15:57] like the Qatar scenario, just as the Zionist [00:16:00] regime attacked the Hamas delegation [00:16:03] at the residence of the Hamas delegation in Qatar? [00:16:07] The American systems that were there showed no [00:16:11] reaction, as if they were holding these systems [00:16:14] or did not want to use them. Look, all these issues [00:16:18] you mentioned are correct and exist. [00:16:22] However, the Americans apparently have not [00:16:25] decided and do not intend to seriously [00:16:29] enter military field operations. [00:16:32] That's why the agreement between [00:16:36] the Americans and the Sana'a [00:16:39] government and their representative [00:16:42] in Oman was that we do not intend [00:16:46] to intervene, and the Yemenis said that [00:16:49] as long as you do not intervene and other [00:16:53] countries do not join the invading Saudi [00:16:56] forces, the Strait of Hormuz will remain open. [00:16:59] Therefore, Trump does not want to fight [00:17:03] on two fronts. He is currently [00:17:06] stuck in the Strait of Hormuz [00:17:09] with our brave forces and is [00:17:12] looking for a way out. Therefore, he was [00:17:16] not willing, and his advisors did not [00:17:19] encourage him. Even the plan [00:17:22] to attack the Yemeni forces was on his [00:17:25] desk, but he did not approve it. [00:17:29] Another issue is the issue of [00:17:32] mercenary forces. It is not clear whether all [00:17:35] these equipments you mentioned are really available. [00:17:39] They are available and at the highest [00:17:42] levels of technology, especially the new [00:17:45] weapons that the Saudis recently bought again [00:17:48] in a $9 billion purchase. Well, it [00:17:52] shows that non-Saudis may be operating [00:17:55] these systems, and the systems may not be accurate. [00:17:59] This is one point. Another point is [00:18:02] that the precision and hypersonic missiles [00:18:05] of the Yemenis really humiliated the Zionists [00:18:08] in the Gaza war. They acted accurately [00:18:12] at sea and even targeted and drove [00:18:15] away the American aircraft carrier, as [00:18:18] well as precision missiles that they [00:18:21] used against the port of Eilat [00:18:25] and also Ben Gurion Airport. Therefore, [00:18:28] with much more advanced technology, probably with [00:18:32] the entry of artificial intelligence, these missiles [00:18:36] can accurately hit anywhere they want. [00:19:07] continue this war both on land and in the air, and in the political [00:19:11] and diplomatic dimensions, until the slogan [00:19:14] of "siege for siege" continues, "capital for [00:19:18] capital," "airport for airport," until [00:19:21] the Saudis actually agree to come to the negotiating [00:19:24] table and lift the land, air, [00:19:27] and sea blockade of Saudi Arabia, and withdraw [00:19:30] their intervention in Yemen, and expel [00:19:33] their invading forces from Yemen. [00:19:41] In another aspect, my last sentence is that many Yemeni tribes who were on the other side [00:19:45] and were supported by Saudi Arabia or the UAE, [00:19:49] are now surrendering themselves and their weapons to [00:19:52] the Yemeni army forces. Thank you very much, [00:19:56] Mr. Seyyed Hadi Seyyed [00:19:57] Afqahi, West Asia affairs expert. [00:20:11] But in the field of Yemen developments, [00:20:13] we also have a map that we will review before [00:20:17] we specifically go into Yemen's [00:20:20] developments, we will take a quick look at the Strait [00:20:24] of Hormuz. The management of the Strait of Hormuz. [00:20:27] This map that you are seeing [00:20:31] now, the Public Relations of the Islamic Revolutionary [00:20:35] Guard Corps Navy issued [00:20:37] a statement that two supertankers were hit [00:20:41] by naval mines while passing through an unauthorized [00:20:45] route, and one oil tanker, meaning a total of three [00:20:48] oil tankers, two of which are supertankers [00:20:52] and one is a regular oil tanker, which was [00:20:55] also mentioned in the statement of the Islamic Revolutionary [00:20:59] Guard Corps. The small framed image next to [00:21:02] the map is related to yesterday's hit. [00:21:05] But here in Yemen, Saudi [00:21:08] fighter jets, as Mr. Yahya Saree also [00:21:11] said in the statement, attacked 124 different [00:21:14] areas. This is the highest [00:21:18] number of Saudi [00:21:21] enemy attacks recorded in a 24-hour period [00:21:25] from September 3 to today. The number [00:21:27] of these attacks reached 2058. But here in [00:21:30] Taiz, as was mentioned an hour [00:21:34] ago, they reached the western entrance [00:21:38] of Taiz city. Specifically, [00:21:40] Shamayteen was one of the very [00:21:44] important routes through which [00:21:47] supplies reached Taiz city for Saudi mercenaries. [00:21:51] If you look at Lahj and Aden at the bottom [00:21:54] of the map, supplies came from there to Taiz. [00:21:58] This siege ring has been completed, and the [00:22:01] possibility of the fall of Taiz city, as [00:22:05] the center of Yemen's second largest [00:22:08] province, is seen every moment. Next to [00:22:11] it, put the counterattacks that they launched [00:22:15] on Bab al-Mandab, which they prevented. [00:22:19] But as it was mentioned in the statement again, [00:22:22] King Khalid International Airport was hit in [00:22:25] three stages here. Just keep in mind [00:22:29] that Yemeni airports have been continuously [00:22:32] attacked, sanctioned, and blockaded by air [00:22:36] for 11 years. Sana'a has been attacked many [00:22:40] times, and now the Saudis are experiencing [00:22:44] the taste of this air blockade much more tangibly. [00:22:47] That corner of the map also [00:22:50] shows Flightradar24, which shows that [00:22:53] there are still no flights to Riyadh. The same [00:22:57] is happening for Dammam, meaning King [00:23:00] Fahd Airport. This is Mr. Bakhiti, [00:23:03] a senior member of the political bureau [00:23:07] of the Ansar Allah movement in Yemen, who [00:23:10] warned them about Saudi crimes and also said [00:23:14] that this equation of siege for siege remains. [00:23:17] For the same reason [00:23:20] that you are seeing these crimes and attacks [00:23:24] in the small framed images, those 2005 [00:23:27] air attacks resulted in the martyrdom of [00:23:30] 91 people and the injury of 168 people. [00:23:34] The Yemeni Ministry of Health stated this, [00:23:37] and more importantly, about 50% of [00:23:41] the martyrs are women and children. An important [00:23:44] congress in Saudi Arabia was scheduled to begin [00:23:47] on October 10th, [00:23:50] which is this Saturday. The World Oil Congress [00:23:53] was completely canceled. The 10th edition of the Riyadh [00:23:57] Future Investment Initiative is also scheduled [00:24:01] to be held from October 26th to 29th, [00:24:04] which at least field evidence shows is [00:24:08] moving towards cancellation. But the places that [00:24:11] were hit in the last 24 hours are [00:24:14] here, where the largest oil field of [00:24:17] the Saudis, namely Ghawar, with a daily [00:24:21] production of 3.8 million barrels, which is [00:24:25] 30 to 35% of the crude oil production [00:24:28] of the oil field, and also the gas [00:24:32] facilities, sorry, Shadam, and also the oil [00:24:36] facilities of Jabiq in eastern Saudi Arabia, [00:24:39] were hit. This eastern Saudi Arabia, I draw [00:24:42] your attention to Dammam again. This small [00:24:46] framed image is related to the missile and drone [00:24:49] strike on Dammam, Saudi Arabia, near Dammam [00:24:53] Airport, meaning King Fahd Airport in [00:24:56] eastern Saudi Arabia, which [00:24:59] is adjacent to Ras Tanura and the oil [00:25:03] and petrochemical facilities of Jubail in [00:25:06] eastern Saudi Arabia. And this has created [00:25:09] a big problem. That is, the Yemeni [00:25:13] armed forces have [00:25:15] now targeted the oil [00:30:31] Shalom. Headlines: [00:30:33] Unity [00:30:37] and internal cohesion are the secret [00:30:40] to Iran's steadfastness against threats. The President [00:30:44] said that with national [00:30:46] unity, no enemy [00:30:49] can defeat the Iranian nation. [00:30:52] We are strong together. Let's all support [00:30:55] each other, and then we will build [00:30:58] a powerful, [00:31:00] steadfast Iran that grows in all fields.
