[00:00:22] The Minister of Foreign Affairs, by publishing a message on social media, referring
[00:00:26] to his one-day trip to Ashgabat, emphasized that neighbors
[00:00:30] are our priority. Mr. Araghchi wrote
[00:00:33] that it was a pleasure to meet with President Serdar
[00:00:36] Berdimuhamedov in Ashgabat and have constructive talks with
[00:00:40] my friend and counterpart, Rashid Meredov, the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
[00:00:44] The Minister of Foreign Affairs of our country added that our shared history and
[00:00:47] deep cultural ties provide a strong foundation for expanding
[00:00:51] cooperation. Mr. Araghchi, after conducting meetings and
[00:00:54] political and economic consultations in Ashgabat, the capital
[00:00:57] of Turkmenistan, on Monday, returned to Tehran.
[00:02:30] It is planned that with the aim of introducing the pioneers of this field and as a role model
[00:02:33] for the young generation, every year, permanent figures in the field of education and training
[00:02:37] will be identified and honored.
[00:02:39] Sometimes
[00:02:42] a picture changes the life path of a teacher.
[00:02:46] In Sistan and Baluchestan, I saw a school where children were sitting on the ground
[00:02:49] on sacks, studying. It was very strange
[00:02:53] for me because at that same time, I was teaching
[00:02:57] in the best school in Tehran. A picture that
[00:03:00] was the beginning of a new responsibility for him.
[00:03:03] I gave this news to the children of that school, and the children
[00:03:07] and their parents expressed their readiness to help that child.
[00:03:11] And school building started from there. This is just one
[00:03:15] example of the legacy of those who dedicated their lives to education
[00:03:18] and training. To date, we have built 620 schools or
[00:03:22] are in the process of building them. A legacy that is now going to be identified
[00:03:25] as permanent. One or two people each year, we hope
[00:03:29] in 8 or 8 different
[00:03:32] groups, in fact, we can choose. Honoring is not just a reminder
[00:03:36] of the past; it is an opportunity to transfer experience to
[00:03:39] future generations. We must accumulate our knowledge
[00:03:43] and transfer it. Younger people stand
[00:03:47] on the shoulders of elders and experienced people
[00:03:49] and look from a broader perspective. Films and books
[00:03:53] are to be prepared from these. We will, God willing, compile
[00:03:57] their biographies and make them available
[00:04:00] to interested parties. Dr. Kazemi
[00:04:03] said that identifying, introducing, and registering
[00:04:07] the legacy of the luminaries of education and training is among the missions
[00:04:10] of this association to keep alive the educational
[00:04:13] memory of Iran. Ali Akbar Abbasi, IRIB News Agency.
[00:04:17] The
[00:04:20] "My Hero" book series with a new perspective and new titles
[00:04:23] in the book market. Books that have now reached 35 volumes
[00:04:27] and in their newest title.
[00:04:36] Heroes are not always legends; some heroes emerge from reality,
[00:04:39] heroes with whom children grew up.
[00:04:43] The
[00:04:46] book "You Were Like a Rosebud" talks about the characteristics of the martyred leader
[00:04:50] in the form of poetry and stories for children.
[00:04:53] One day, finally, I will become like you.
[00:04:57] I am a book lover. I read
[00:05:00] books. I want from today, I also,
[00:05:03] like you, read the Quran. I saw a picture
[00:05:06] of you there on the table. In your hand
[00:05:10] is a book.
[00:05:14] It's visible in the photo frame. This book is written by Fatemeh Gholami and published by
[00:05:17] Ketabak. We tried to introduce
[00:05:20] children to various aspects of our martyred leader's personality
[00:05:24] in a sweet and fluent language. One of the issues
[00:05:28] we discussed was the leader's athleticism,
[00:05:32] the importance of sports
[00:05:35] and being an athlete. The "My Hero" series
[00:05:39] examines contemporary Iranian heroes in a childlike manner,
[00:05:42] heroes like the father of Iran's nuclear program,
[00:05:46] written by Zahra Abdi. "Nuclear Father" is a narrative
[00:05:48] of the life of Martyr Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, covering his childhood,
[00:05:52] education, scientific activities, social life, and martyrdom.
[00:05:55] This book includes 20 short
[00:05:59] and very readable narratives.
[00:06:02] The "My Hero" series has been published
[00:06:06] in 35 volumes. These are fluent and
[00:06:09] intimate books that indirectly introduce children to the characters
[00:06:13] in the series. Mahboub

[00:06:27] The release of 190 prisoners of non-violent crimes in
[00:06:30] Fars province with the help of philanthropists and the Endowment Organization
[00:06:34] and the payment of 20 billion tomans to the Blood Money Headquarters, 190
[00:06:37] prisoners of non-violent crimes in Fars province were released.
[00:06:41] The Endowment Organization also announced the payment of 7 billion tomans for the release
[00:06:45] of 53 other prisoners. According to the Chief Justice
[00:06:48] of Fars, 1,688 prisoners of non-violent crimes
[00:06:51] are still in the prisons of this province.

[00:06:55] Democrats lead in
[00:06:59] US midterm election polls. A poll by the New York
[00:07:03] Times and Siena College shows Democrats in key states

[00:07:28] The high cost of living due to America's war against Iran and
[00:07:32] the tariff war has become an opportunity for Democrats to gain a significant
[00:07:35] number of US Senate seats.
[00:07:38] students and teachers to deal with potential dangers.
[00:07:51] It was carried out.
[00:07:54] We entered the school and then the classroom. Mr. Movaffaghi came to the blackboard.
[00:07:58] Mr. Movaffaghi, come to the blackboard.
[00:08:01] Sir.
[00:08:04] There are some activities that are done without proper planning in emergency situations. We
[00:08:08] must learn these. We also checked on the other children. Where is the most important place in school?
[00:08:12] The shelter that we have to go out of the school door. Passive defense, what does it mean? Passive
[00:08:15] defense. They didn't explain these
[00:08:19] to us, I really don't know. Now it was time to start the drill.
[00:08:22] The gas valve should be quickly
[00:08:26] closed.
[00:08:27] بشه
[00:08:36] Some people were able to get out on their own. The ambulance's job is
[00:08:40] to receive the injured from other rescue teams.
[00:08:44] Two injured people who were missing were found by our dogs.
[00:08:47] Well, here is the command tent. In our initial assessment,
[00:08:51] nearly 20 children were identified
[00:08:54] with green triage by our colleagues from the Red Crescent Society.
[00:08:58] In this tent, we bring the children who have just been blocked until
[00:09:02] the ambulance arrives. Davam, meaning volunteer emergency
[00:09:05] response force. We also had a fire in the yard that was extinguished.
[00:09:09] Well, here is the shelter, where the children quickly
[00:09:12] came. Let's go see what's inside.
[00:09:15] خبره
[00:09:19] The choice of the school environment for holding this drill was not accidental.
[00:09:22] The goal is to teach survival skills and prepare the future builders
[00:09:26] of the country. The schools
[00:09:29] and families are these very students
[00:09:32] who can both learn and gain skills.
[00:09:36] Today was also mostly about skill training. The students who were, for example, injured
[00:09:40] in this drill, and now they are fine,
[00:09:43] said they learned a lot today. Yes, I was also
[00:09:47] injured. I was a first-degree
[00:09:50] injured, meaning that, for example, a dog came after me,
[00:09:54] my situation was very bad. When the drill bell rang from above,
[00:09:57] we came from this side and went towards the shelter.
[00:10:00] Now there is also a war situation, do the children have the readiness, for example, if there is a war?
[00:10:03] The field commander also expressed satisfaction with the results of these exercises
[00:10:07] after observing the level of readiness and discipline of the forces.
[00:10:11] Overall, it was a good drill. The cooperation of the education authorities was very involved.
[00:10:14] The agencies that were obliged were involved and
[00:10:18] implemented the matter very seriously and properly. Maintaining composure and calm,
[00:10:21] getting away from the areas, is
[00:10:25] the first thing we must do in times of danger.
[00:10:28] Amirshang Charkhgar, IRIB News Agency.
[00:10:31] Stay with us.
[00:10:55] Israel's attacks on Gaza have displaced nearly 2 million Palestinians,
[00:10:58] most of whom have taken refuge in the city of Rafah in the south.
[00:11:02] Now, with new Israeli threats
[00:11:05] against this area and statements by its politicians
[00:11:09] for the permanent expulsion of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, the fear
[00:11:13] of another forced displacement is increasing.
[00:11:16] است.
[00:11:32] We must create a humanitarian crisis that forces Egypt, Turkey,
[00:11:36] and Europe to accept Arabs as
[00:11:40] refugees. The goal of the Zionist project
[00:11:43] was the annihilation and destruction of the Palestinian nation, and the method of work was mainly based
[00:11:47] on the expulsion of Arabs and mass killings. Their method of work
[00:11:51] was clear: expulsion, intimidation, and
[00:11:54] slaughter. What can and should be done
[00:11:58] is so-called voluntary migration, an incentive plan that would allow
[00:12:01] them to leave this land. Gaza is our
[00:12:05] home. We don't want to go to Sinai.
[00:12:09] Oh God, Oh God,
[00:12:13] Oh God. Since October 7,
[00:12:16] 2023, about 2 million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip
[00:12:19] have been forced to migrate to save their lives
[00:12:23] from death and destruction. Fleeing destruction
[00:12:27] that has even spread to the safe areas that were declared
[00:12:30] to them. The war in Gaza has caused an unprecedented
[00:12:34] human catastrophe. The people of Gaza,
[00:12:38] who have been pushed into a corner in Rafah by the Israeli army's
[00:12:41] air and ground attacks and are in distress,
[00:12:45] bear the worst fears. What kind of forced displacement is this?
[00:12:48] Where do they want to send us? Sinai? Where do they want to send us?
[00:12:52] We don't want to go anywhere. The Power program examines
[00:12:55] whether the displacement of the Palestinian population in Gaza
[00:12:59] and the occupied West Bank is Israel's ultimate
[00:13:03] goal. As of February 21,
[00:13:06] 2024, nearly 30,000 Palestinians
[00:13:10] have been killed by the Israeli army, over 60,000
[00:13:13] have been wounded and disabled. Thousands more
[00:13:17] were missing and many were buried under the rubble.
[00:13:20] Israel's real goal
[00:13:24] is clear: to empty the land of Palestinians.
[00:13:28] Marwan Muasher, former Jordanian Foreign Minister and former ambassador to Washington and Tel Aviv,
[00:13:31] has been involved in Arab-Israeli relations for years.
[00:13:35] Israel is destroying all forms of life
[00:13:39] in Gaza. Not just human lives, but
[00:13:42] infrastructure, schools,
[00:13:45] places of worship, and hospitals in a clear attempt to
[00:13:48] make Gaza uninhabitable. This forces
[00:13:52] Palestinians to leave
[00:13:55] there.
[00:13:56] Jordan has been
[00:14:00] at the forefront of warning the world about the dangers
[00:14:03] of mass and large-scale displacement of Palestinians.
[00:14:06] I think in response to the first part
[00:14:10] of the question about refugees entering Jordan, with absolute certainty,
[00:14:14] and not just from Jordan, but also from our friends
[00:14:17] in Egypt, I can say that this is a red line
[00:14:21] because I believe this is a pre-designed map by the usual suspects
[00:14:25] to impose a fait accompli on the region. No refugee
[00:14:29] will come to Jordan. No refugee will go to Egypt. Many people
[00:14:33] in the West look at this and say, "How is it possible
[00:14:36] that Palestinian people are not allowed to enter?" But
[00:14:40] in fact, this is the position of the Palestinians themselves, who learned in
[00:14:43] 1948
[00:14:46] and do not want to leave there. Therefore, the decision
[00:14:49] to close the border is in fact a decision not
[00:14:52] to allow Israel to
[00:14:55] resolve the conflict at the expense of Palestinians
[00:14:58] and expel Palestinians from their land.
[00:15:02] Most UN member states expressed concern about the fate
[00:15:06] of Gaza's 2.3 million people and openly
[00:15:10] condemned Israeli politicians and leaders
[00:15:13] who call for the expulsion of Palestinians.
[00:15:16] هستند محکوم
[00:15:17] On
[00:15:21] January 28, at least 10 ministers from the Israeli cabinet
[00:15:24] participated in an event titled "Resettlement in Gaza"
[00:15:28] in Jerusalem. Where Itamar Ben-Gvir
[00:15:31] spoke to a cheering crowd.
[00:15:34] It's
[00:15:39] time to encourage migration. We want
[00:15:43] to resettle Gaza.
[00:15:46] The government must make a brave decision.
[00:15:49] No Arab will remain in the Gaza Strip.
[00:15:53] They will go to Turkey, Scotland, Britain, and everywhere else.
[00:15:57] I want them to leave Gaza, and we will use
[00:16:00] various methods. One of them is a complete cessation
[00:16:04] of humanitarian aid so that the countries of the world
[00:16:08] will have pity on them and shelter them. At one of
[00:16:11] the few entry points to Rafah, Israeli settlers
[00:16:14] raid aid convoys and prevent food and medicine
[00:16:18] from reaching them. One of the families awaiting aid is the family
[00:16:21] of Amir Jajjeh. They
[00:16:24] fled from Gaza City to a refugee
[00:16:27] camp in Rafah in October 2023 after
[00:16:30] their home was bombed and their neighborhood was destroyed.
[00:16:33] They want our lands, they want
[00:16:37] Gaza. That's why they are torturing
[00:16:41] us. Why should we take refuge in Sinai?
[00:16:45] It's not our country.
[00:16:48] We want Gaza. We want to go back
[00:16:52] to our homes. Experts say plans to displace
[00:16:55] and transfer these Palestinians began decades
[00:16:59] ago. The most important method
[00:17:02] used by these European Jewish settlers to seize land belonging to
[00:17:05] Palestine. The
[00:17:18] Israeli historian says about the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians:
[00:17:22] This process began in the late 19th
[00:17:25] century with an ideological movement called Zionism.
[00:17:29] Experts believe that the plans for the displacement and transfer
[00:17:32] of Palestinians were launched decades ago.
[00:17:36] And the main tool of European Jewish settlers
[00:17:40] to occupy Palestinian land has been ethnic cleansing,
[00:17:43] expulsion, and forced displacement. This phenomenon
[00:17:47] emerged in the late 19th century with the intellectual
[00:17:50] movement known as Zionism. At that time,
[00:17:54] Britain was the main architect and ally of Zionist
[00:17:57] aspirations in Palestine.
[00:18:00] Britain administered
[00:18:03] Palestine between 1918 and 1948
[00:18:06] as part of its colonial empire. Therefore, in the mid-1920s,
[00:18:10] the Zionist movement succeeded in buying land
[00:18:14] in two areas called Wadi al-Hawarith and Marj
[00:18:17] ibn Amer. Before that, people also bought land
[00:18:20] and transactions took place, but the custom was that
[00:18:24] the villagers who had lived there for centuries remained
[00:18:28] in their place, meaning that changing the ownership
[00:18:31] of the village did not uproot them
[00:18:35] and displace them. But the first thing the Zionists did was to
[00:18:38] go to the British government and say, "You must
[00:18:42] expel the villagers." Therefore, in 1926, they
[00:18:46] evacuated 11 villages. This means that several thousand people
[00:18:50] were deprived of their agricultural lands as the first Palestinian
[00:18:53] victims of ethnic cleansing, and the expelled villagers worked
[00:18:57] as laborers in cities in the next decade. The resistance of Palestinians
[00:19:01] against Zionist settlers
[00:19:04] took the form of strikes, gatherings, and especially
[00:19:08] armed resistance. The assassination and killing
[00:19:11] of Palestinian leaders by Britain
[00:19:14] paved the way for the formation of the Arab revolt of
[00:19:18] 1936. After this
[00:19:21] revolt, Britain sent a commission to Palestine,
[00:19:24] and this commission was the first body
[00:19:28] to propose the idea of forming two states. Gradual displacement
[00:19:32] over time.
[00:19:35] جایی آرام و به مرور.
[00:20:07] to think about where to move the Palestinians. Therefore, when we reach
[00:20:11] the end of the mandate period, meaning May 1948,
[00:20:15] we see that the Zionist movement only succeeded in controlling between
[00:20:18] 5 to 6 percent of Palestinian lands. This happened
[00:20:22] because people resisted and not everyone was willing
[00:20:26] to sell land because they were worried that buying land would be accompanied
[00:20:29] by the expulsion of people. A project based
[00:20:33] on displacement and replacement. Jews instead of Palestinians.
[00:20:37] The goal was that if colonial settler movements could not
[00:20:41] gain full control of the land and forcibly displace
[00:20:44] the people, they would continue their work until this goal was reached,
[00:20:48] because ideologically, they deeply believe that
[00:20:52] without complete control over the land and the absolute population,
[00:20:55] meaning achieving an absolute majority and an unquestionable
[00:20:59] presence, the work remains incomplete. This is the main
[00:21:02] motivation for Israel's actions today
[00:21:06] in the Gaza Strip. While
[00:21:10] the displaced in Rafah are thinking about their day after the war,
[00:21:13] for Jacob and his family in the spring
[00:21:17] of 1948. Time.
[00:21:41] They blew up 20 houses to force people
[00:21:45] to leave. Jacob keeps ownership
[00:21:49] documents, photos, and the key to his family's
[00:21:52] home in his pocket, close to his heart. These are our
[00:21:55] ownership documents. This one is Ottoman and
[00:21:59] that one is from the British Mandate era. Yes, they
[00:22:03] will always
[00:22:05] be ours.
[00:22:07] They will always be ours. This
[00:22:11] photo is actually a group photo of the school in Lifta
[00:22:15] from 1945. Yes, this
[00:22:18] is my brother
[00:22:20] and this is my cousin. Lifta is one of
[00:22:24] the 531 villages and towns that were completely
[00:22:27] destroyed by the occupiers. Lifta had a population
[00:22:31] of 3,000 people before the Nakba and more than
[00:22:35] 55 houses, as I recall.
[00:22:38] The
[00:22:41] Zionists first prepared the general expulsion plan in March
[00:22:45] under the title Plan D and implemented
[00:22:48] it in April and early May. The first phase of Plan
[00:22:51] D was to occupy Palestinian urban areas
[00:22:55] and depopulate most Palestinian cities. Of the 75,000
[00:22:59] people living in Haifa, only 3,000 remained.
[00:23:03] Today, the old Arab neighborhoods of Haifa
[00:23:07] are adorned with Arabic names and signs
[00:23:10] here and there, and old photos of their expelled
[00:23:13] owners on the walls of houses. South of
[00:23:17] Haifa, Jaffa was another large Palestinian port
[00:23:21] that was forcibly depopulated by Zionist forces.
[00:23:25] The Samad family
[00:23:28] was one of the few families that managed
[00:23:32] to remain there. The main tool
[00:23:35] for the ethnic cleansing of Palestine between 1947
[00:23:38] and 1949 was the violence of various
[00:23:41] Zionist terrorist groups. At that time, the British
[00:23:44] called them terrorist groups. Important Palestinian cities,
[00:23:48] including Haifa, were in that period when British
[00:23:51] officials labeled the Zionist invaders of those cities
[00:23:55] as terrorist groups. People were expelled
[00:23:58] from all important Palestinian cities like Jaffa.
[00:24:02] If you imagine what is happening to Palestinians in Gaza today,
[00:24:05] you should know that in those years, the Zionists pushed
[00:24:09] the entire Palestinian population towards Rafah City and towards
[00:24:13] the border, and explicitly stated that their strategic plan
[00:24:16] was the expulsion of Palestinians. Israelis today
[00:24:20] announce that their preferred scenario is the complete
[00:24:23] expulsion of all Palestinians from Gaza to Sinai, and
[00:24:27] they don't just want to keep them in Sinai, but they want to scatter
[00:24:31] them across the world. The Israeli Ministry of Intelligence
[00:24:34] recommended on October 13,
[00:24:37] 2023, the forced and permanent expulsion of 2.3 million
[00:24:41] Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip to Egyptian Sinai.
[00:24:44] After the publication of the leaked
[00:24:47] version in the Israeli magazine 972,
[00:24:51] the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence confirmed the authenticity
[00:24:54] of this document.
[00:24:57] The
[00:25:03] vast majority of the new displaced people of Gaza are descendants
[00:25:06] of families who were driven from lands that are now under Israeli occupation,
[00:25:10] including Amir Jajjeh and his family. These
[00:25:14] events remind me of my father and
[00:25:18] mother, may God have mercy on them. Their displacement in
[00:25:21] 1948. My mother always used to tell
[00:25:24] me how they used to bombard us with explosive barrels.
[00:25:28] She talked about running in the streets
[00:25:31] while holding my brother's hand, about the bomb
[00:25:35] that exploded near them, and about the bodies
[00:25:38] lying on the ground. She said, "Thank God
[00:25:42] we were able to escape." My father had a rowing boat.
[00:25:46] He put my brother in the boat and they escaped by sea.
[00:25:50] They were driven out by sea because Jaffa is a coastal city.
[00:25:53] Those who went south, tens of thousands, were driven
[00:25:57] to Gaza. Gaza is only 65.5
[00:26:01] kilometers away from Jaffa.
[00:26:04] Juliette Touma
[00:26:12] is one of the few aid workers who has been
[00:26:16] able to enter Gaza during the war.
[00:26:18] Places like schools have been forced
[00:26:22] to become shelters. Even those shelters were
[00:26:25] not spared during the war. We have recorded that more than
[00:26:29] 300 people were killed in attacks on these schools
[00:26:33] and shelters alone, and more than a thousand were injured.
[00:26:37] These statistics only relate to UN facilities. Following
[00:26:41] the so-called evacuation orders that Israeli authorities constantly
[00:26:44] issued, at least 1 million people were displaced.
[00:26:47] They created a sense of absolute terror
[00:26:51] to force people to leave. Experts say
[00:26:55] today's events are a continuation of decades of Israeli practice
[00:26:58] of expelling Palestinians from their homes. Past
[00:27:32] policies show that efforts to end Gaza
[00:27:36] are not new. In 1967, there was a plan
[00:27:39] to reduce the number of refugees in Gaza, and the talk was, "Let's destroy refugee
[00:27:43] camps and transfer this population to Jordan." This was until
[00:27:47] Jordan blocked the entry of Gaza residents. Approximately half a million
[00:27:51] Palestinians were deprived of return. Previous practices attest that efforts
[00:27:54] to resolve the issue of Gaza and expel the population of this region
[00:27:58] are not new at all. Over the years, a total of 12,000
[00:28:02] residents of Gaza went to Jordan. In 1969, they were temporarily
[00:28:06] settled in a refugee camp near
[00:28:08] Jerash. Talks were underway to destroy the refugee
[00:28:12] camps and transfer these people to Jordan until Jordan prevented
[00:28:16] the continuation of this situation. The Gaza camp is the poorest
[00:28:19] and most marginalized camp in Jordan,
[00:28:23] and the reason is that its residents have the national
[00:28:26] identity card necessary for employment. But we can
[00:28:30] establish the continuity of their Palestinian identity.
[00:28:34] Nazal is one of the founders of a cooperative that helps
[00:28:37] Gazan refugee women in Jordan find jobs
[00:28:40] fitting their culture. Amal Arada, from
[00:28:44] Gazan Palestinian descent, was twice expelled from her
[00:28:48] home by Israeli forces. Our displacement began
[00:28:51] when my grandparents fled from Ghala village.
[00:28:55] My brother always blamed my father for
[00:28:58] staying in the village. My father said we had no choice
[00:29:02] but death and were forced to leave. They were defenseless.
[00:29:06] After we saw what was happening in Gaza, we finally understood
[00:29:10] why our families left. Otherwise, we might not
[00:29:13] be alive today. We want to do something for the people
[00:29:17] of Gaza. You can see continuous efforts
[00:29:20] to erase Palestinian identity over the past 75 years.
[00:29:24] Simple methods like forced migration to
[00:29:27] Jordan turned this country into a temporary station
[00:29:31] for millions of Palestinians who were driven from
[00:29:34] their homes. Therefore, you now see symbols
[00:29:38] like watermelon, embroidery, and even plain
[00:29:41] keffiyeh used in the global solidarity
[00:29:45] movement and among Palestinian diaspora communities.
[00:29:48] As a double affirmation that not only do we exist,
[00:29:52] but now everyone knows that we exist.
[00:29:55] Over the years, Jordan
[00:29:59] has become a waypoint for Palestinians
[00:30:02] who have been driven from their homes and migrated to other
[00:30:06] countries. I am a descendant
[00:30:09] of the Atta family. May God have mercy on his
[00:30:13] soul and my father's. He lived in Katamon,
[00:30:16] part of West Jerusalem that was occupied
[00:30:19] in 1948. Therefore, during
[00:30:23] the 1948 war, we were forced to leave our home
[00:30:27] and were expelled.
[00:30:31] These are parts of the architectural plans
[00:30:34] of our house in Katamon, and I see the date
[00:30:38] stamped on it which says "City
[00:30:42] Engineering Department, January 4,
[00:30:45] 1900 and... let me see.
[00:30:49] Yes. 1904.
[00:30:53] و بذارید ببینم بله چهاریه
[00:30:57] سال.
