[00:02:43] Iran's top security [00:02:44] of official has slamed US president Donald Trump's [00:02:48] facilitating positions on negotiations with Iran [00:02:52] of implying that his remarks are aimed as sweaying global energy [00:02:55] prices. Secretary of Iran's supreme National Security Council Major [00:02:59] General M Razi made the comments in social media post.

[00:04:53] press [00:04:53] of tv correspondent joined us in our tehran studios [00:04:57] earlier to share his experience in Tehran while reporting [00:05:01] on US crimes there. He says the enemies of Iran do not have [00:05:05] proper understanding [00:05:06] of the scope [00:05:07] of the people's resilience. Let's se [00:05:10] listen. [00:05:13] "perhaps the enemies of Iran need a better understanding [00:05:17] the people the south, these are not the people who are going to uh lose [00:05:21] hope or be discouraged by such attacks, they have lost people before, [00:05:25] their almost every family has a martier in its [00:05:29] history, indeed, so this is not something that is going to [00:05:32] discourage them, the mother of Amir Muhammad, [00:05:36] four year old baby who was marched in the attack on the wedding [00:05:40] in Sirick, her words were..." amazing bahman, i don't [00:05:44] know how to explain, she was the for first words [00:05:48] that came out of her mouth when i was having an interview with her was [00:05:51] that we are going to continue, that we are going to uh [00:05:55] keep up, that this is not something that going to bring me down [00:05:59] and if had to bring even if had to bring [00:06:03] only and i would i would hope that the leader [00:06:07] the revolution would accept my uh my [00:06:10] present, this is the kind of spirit that... you see among the people the [00:06:14] south regardless their faith or their religious [00:06:16] background, [00:06:21] iran slams the international atomic energy agency and austria [00:06:24] for denying a visa to the head of Irany astonishing and [00:06:28] indeed ironic that Austria, in order to justify its wrongful [00:06:32] act invokes resolutions that have been [00:06:36] duly and legally terminated and or a [00:06:40] non-existence committee the UN security. cancel: [00:06:43] resolution 2231 expired on [00:06:47] 18 October 2025, and accordingly, all the UN [00:06:51] restrictions against the Islamic Republic of Iran were [00:06:54] permanently terminated. It is not merely an [00:06:58] Iranium position, it is also the firm legal position of [00:07:01] two permanent members the security council as [00:07:05] well the the [00:07:05] as countries non movement, occasional move in New York [00:07:09] in the name the so-called committee, or [00:07:13] ultravirus and constitute a blatant abuse the security [00:07:17] council's procedures and authority by certain of its western [00:07:20] members. such a committee has not been officially [00:07:24] established nor has a single meeting of it been [00:07:28] held since 2015. the [00:07:32] suodop legal arguments constitute a gross and indeed [00:07:35] deliberate distortion the letter and spirit the [00:07:38] headquarter agreement. [00:07:43] Iran's ambassador to international organizations in Vienna, [00:07:47] Razzal Najafi made the remarks at the opening the 70th [00:07:51] IAEA General Conference. The US representative [00:07:55] admitted that Washington opposed the travel exemption request for [00:07:58] Muhammad Islami, saying the rejection was made under UN [00:08:02] sanctions committee rules. Najafi said Austria's record in [00:08:06] fulfilling his obligations as host country shows it [00:08:10] lacks the competence to hold such a position. he added that the [00:08:14] visa was initially issued by, but then canceled [00:08:17] under pressure, proving the legal justification was fabricated [00:08:21] afterwards. Iran's envoy warned that using the agency to save [00:08:25] one country's interest at the cost of this crediting get [00:08:29] is a dangerous trend that must stop. The conference [00:08:32] runs from September 14th to 18th with representatives [00:08:36] from 181 member states in [00:08:39] attendance. [00:08:43] the correspondent has spoken to Behruz Kamal Vandi, the [00:08:46] spokesman and deputy the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran [00:08:50] regarding Austria's visa denial to the Iranian nuclear chief ahead [00:08:54] the IAEA [00:08:55] conference, [00:09:00] and of course it cannot be interpreted anything [00:09:02] else more than a type [00:09:06] of childish behavior from the side of [00:09:09] Americans, it is, when when you are [00:09:13] preventing the head of delegation to come to [00:09:17] participate in annual conference, it is of [00:09:21] course misusing your [00:09:24] political of course capacity in putting [00:09:27] pressure on the austin country, of course the housing [00:09:31] country is responsible, we have somemon the charged [00:09:34] affair the austria in Tehran to [00:09:38] explain why they have done so and of [00:09:41] course... "we are going to continue this [00:09:44] in other er other venues [00:09:48] as well, so at the beginning the conference, they [00:09:52] have taken flag, both Iran and [00:09:55] Russia, and they have objected to the [00:09:59] treatment [00:10:00] the the housing country has had, and they have [00:10:03] explained why this is violation the [00:10:06] regulation and the procedure [00:10:10] which is supposed to be..." observed by the [00:10:14] housing country, of course there is going to [00:10:18] be a statement, the national [00:10:21] statement which most probably tomorrow after. This is [00:10:25] going to be [00:10:25] delivered. [00:10:29] The Yemani army says it has forward the planned air strike by South Arabia on [00:10:33] the country by confronting and repelling two combat [00:10:36] formations coming from the kingdom. Yemen's army spokesman [00:10:40] Yahya Sari said the Saudi combat formation included [00:10:44] Typhoon and F-15 fighter jets which were intercepted in the [00:10:48] saada governor it. He added that the war planes had taken [00:10:52] off from Saudi airbases in Kames Mushit. and [00:10:55] Tive. Service said the fighter jets were confronted with [00:10:58] number of domestically made air defense missiles which forced them to [00:11:02] retreat and return to their bases. His remarks came after [00:11:06] earlier in the day. Sari said Saudi F-15 and [00:11:10] Typhoon war planes had carried out 54 air strikes on several [00:11:14] Yemani governorates within a period of 24 hours. [00:11:18] Those air strikes also originated from Saudi airbases in [00:11:21] Hamis Mushait and Taiv. He about the Saudi Arabia. rege brutal [00:11:25] aggression against Yemen will not go [00:11:28] unpunished. [00:11:33] Yemeny political analyst Hussenhaiti says Yemen's operations will [00:11:36] intensify both inside the country and across the Saudi territory [00:11:40] as long as Riyadh keeps up his strikes and backs his [00:11:43] mercenaries on the [00:11:44] ground. [00:11:49] 90 to 95% the strength the Saudi [00:11:52] backed forces in Yemen was the Saudi. air strike and air [00:11:56] cover now we've seen that Yemany has actually limited [00:12:00] limited that by targeting [00:12:03] the those bases themself [00:12:04] and as said clearly that Yemen will [00:12:08] continue attacking Saudi Arabia will continue to target [00:12:12] Saudi Arabia unless they stop interfering from Yemen and [00:12:16] they this as well the demand that comes from Sied Abdul [00:12:19] Malik that our demand Saudi to with draw from Yaman to [00:12:23] stop any support for. their back forces and if they [00:12:27] don't do so, yemani will keep continue to advance across Yemen to [00:12:31] liberate the rest of Yemen, this as well the main goal and they will continue to [00:12:34] target Saudi Arabia, we've seen that in the recent weeks they have [00:12:38] almost target all Saudi oil infrastructure in Najran and [00:12:42] jizan and Asir and I believe soon they will expand [00:12:46] those attack to target all structure inside the Saudi [00:12:49] Arabia because Yemen will net Saudi will not let Saudi to [00:12:53] continue their killing their... attack, their strike, their [00:12:56] destruction of Yemen, their support the mercenary and al-Qaeda [00:13:00] and isis and extremist in in Yemen, no [00:13:04] longer, we cannot do that, they have been doing that since 2015 when [00:13:08] they launched the war against [00:13:09] Yemen. At least two [00:13:13] Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza, one [00:13:16] Palestinian was killed in a strike a 10th North Afghan Unis [00:13:20] and at least 10 were wounded in attack a makeshift [00:13:24] camp near a hot. hospital in Gaza City. A Palestinin man was [00:13:27] also killed in southern Gaza's Al-Mawasi. The Health [00:13:31] Ministry has worn that fuel supplies to 13 health [00:13:35] institutions will stop from September 19th, which could [00:13:39] halt surgeries, childbirth services and care for the [00:13:42] wounded. He called on international organizations to interven [00:13:46] immediately. The death toll from the Israely genocide stands at [00:13:50] around 73,800. Since the October [00:13:54] ceasefire. over [00:13:55] 1,370 Palestinians have been [00:13:59] killed and nearly 4,660 [00:14:02] wounded. Euromed monitor says Israeli [00:14:05] quadcopters have killed at least 60 civilians since the [00:14:08] truce, targeting individuals, tens, farmers and [00:14:12] shepherds. [00:14:17] Hamas has sounded the alarm over a growing campaign by Israeli settlers to [00:14:21] expand Jewish religious rituals inside the alaksa Mosco. compound [00:14:25] in the occupied al-quds, the resistance movement says the increasing [00:14:29] visits, prayers and religious ceremonies conducted under [00:14:33] Israeli police protection, risk undermining the longstanding [00:14:36] arrangements governing the holy site. Hamas argues that the [00:14:40] developments are gradual efforts to establish new [00:14:43] religious and political reality at al-Aqsa. It edged Arab [00:14:47] and Muslim governments to the UN and the wider [00:14:51] international community to take action safeguard. muslims [00:14:55] third holiest site. The sacred compound has remained a [00:14:59] major flash point since Israel captured East Alcos in [00:15:02] 1967 with Palestinians repeatedly warning against [00:15:06] changes to his status quo. Meanwhile, an Israeli human rights [00:15:09] group has warned that the regime is working to eliminate [00:15:13] Palestinian's presence from the west [00:15:15] bank. [00:15:20] For nearly three years, Israel has been systematically [00:15:23] dismantaling the... conditions for Palestinian collective [00:15:27] existence in the west bank while making Israel [00:15:31] control and Jewish presence increasingly [00:15:34] permanent. This is the elimination [00:15:38] project, it identifies five main interconnected [00:15:42] mechanism that are part the Israeli campaign in the west [00:15:45] bank, violence and intimidation, ethnic cleansing [00:15:49] and territorial takeover, movement [00:15:52] restriction, economic strunglation and [00:15:56] social and political [00:15:57] destruction. [00:16:01] According to Bestalem, Israel is using military forces and armed [00:16:05] settlers to embark on violence, fear and coersion [00:16:09] across the occupied West Bank. The report says at [00:16:13] least 1,107 Palestinians were killed between October [00:16:17] 2023 and September 2026 in Israeli [00:16:20] attacks. The report also noted that armed settlers have [00:16:24] taken control of around 18% the West bank as of [00:16:27] July 2026, while Israeli authorities continue to [00:16:31] criminalize political organizing, suppress [00:16:35] protests and arrest activists. and journalists, [00:16:39] according to the NGO, since the Israeli genocidal war on [00:16:42] Gaza, at least 60 Palestinian journalists in the west [00:16:46] bank have been detained. The rights group urged the international [00:16:49] community to stop treating Israel's violations as [00:16:53] isolated incidents and to stop [00:16:55] complicity. The [00:16:59] Israely military has launched a fresh wave of attacks on southern Lebanon, [00:17:02] intensifying your strikes despite a US broker cease fire [00:17:05] agreement. Local source. say regime forces shell the town of [00:17:09] Hadatha in the Bint Jabel district while heavy explosions [00:17:13] rocked al-mansuuri. reports also indicate that an Israeli [00:17:17] soldier has been killed in southern Lebanon. Israel has continued [00:17:21] this attacks despite the ceasefire while maintaining a military presence [00:17:24] across nearly 5% of Lebanese territory which it claims [00:17:28] is needed to create buffazo. over 4,300 [00:17:32] people have been killed in Israeli strikes on Lebanon since March the [00:17:36] 2nd. [00:19:32] آیا دیپلماسی تعطیل شده الان؟ ما دیپلماسی رو هم [00:19:35] تغییر دادیم. مشکل بزرگی که [00:19:39] ما در مذاکرات تفاهم نامه اسلام آباد [00:19:43] داشتیم تضمین بود. ما [00:19:46] اعتماد کرده بودیم به واسطه گران. [00:19:50] ولی در عمل معلوم شد اینا نمی تونن تضمین بدن. خب [00:19:54] آقای ترامپ مکرر نقض می کرد ولی کسی نبود [00:19:58] بیاد بهش جلوشو بگیره. بعدم اومد از تفاهمنامه خارج شد. [00:20:02] اگر شکایتی داشت به [00:20:06] آقای نخست وزیر پاکستان و امیر قطر می [00:20:10] گفت چون این دو نفر کمیته حل اختلاف بودن ما الان با [00:20:14] تضمین داریم دیپلاسی رو دنبال میکنیم یعنی [00:20:17] اولاً یک شرایطی قرار [00:20:21] دادیم که آمریکایی ها [00:20:25] اعتمادشون رو به ما اثبات [00:20:27] کنن تا این شرایط [00:20:30] اولیه عمل نشه ما وارد مرحله دوم نمیشیم [00:20:34] زمانی که آمریکایی ها اومدن به جای انگلیسی ها در [00:20:38] سیاست خارجی ایران وارد شدن که بعد [00:20:41] از کودتا علیه آقای مصدق [00:20:45] و نهضت ملی شدن نفت رو اینا از بین بردن اون [00:20:49] موقع آمریک. از اون [00:20:53] موقع تا امروز هیچگاه آمریکایی ها به تعهداتشون عمل [00:20:57] نکردن. آمریکایی ها هم میگن که به ایران نمیشه اعتماد [00:21:00] کرد. اولاً دروغ [00:21:03] میگن. ما تا حالا به هیچ [00:21:07] کشوری حمله نکرد. هیچ مرز سیاسی کشورهای دیگه [00:21:11] رو زیر سؤال نبورد. به تمام تعهدات بین المللی [00:21:15] مون عمل کرده. چه کسی از برجام خارج [00:21:18] شد؟ آمریکا خارج شد. اونا منظورشون از اعتماد [00:21:22] کردن تسلیم کردن ایرانه. اونا اعتماد رو [00:21:25] برابر با نوکری می دونن. خب حالا اگر ما اعتماد [00:21:28] کردیم بالاخره بازی نکنن. تهدید [00:21:32] نکنن. به ایران حمله [00:21:35] نکنن. به همین دلیل ما اومدیم برای [00:21:39] اینکه این تضمین رو در حقیقت تثبیت [00:21:43] کنیم با عمان نشستیم. این نقشش مشخص شده، [00:21:46] نقشش به توافق رسیده. دیگه باید همین روزا. [00:22:56] In 1965, a boy was born in [00:22:58] Tehran. [00:23:04] Decades later, he would travel to Russia to study theoretical [00:23:07] physics at one the country's most renowned scientific [00:23:11] institutions, [00:23:15] but his ambitions went far beyond a scientific [00:23:18] career. From quantum physics [00:23:22] and condensed matter to lasers, [00:23:25] nanotechnology and photonics, Muhammad Mahdi [00:23:29] Tehranchi became one of Iran's prominent [00:23:32] scientists and helped build one the country's leading [00:23:36] centers for laser and plasma [00:23:38] research. This story [00:23:41] is the story [00:23:42] of scientist who believees that scientific progress could shape [00:23:46] the future of nation. [00:24:45] Hello, I'm Chris Williamson and this is Palestine Declassified where we focus [00:24:49] on the international struggle to liberate Palestine and expose Israel's [00:24:52] efforts to manipulate the political class and corporate media. In [00:24:56] today's show, we'll be revisiting the genocide in South Lebanon, which [00:25:00] is continuing to see killings, displacement, and the destruction of [00:25:04] homes unfolding every day, despite a supposed [00:25:07] cefire. As our video report will explain, the United States [00:25:11] continues to exert pressure on the Lebanese government to disbolot. [00:25:15] Meanwhile, the cionist entity strengthens its plans to permanently [00:25:19] occupy South. under the guise of so-called security [00:25:22] zone. [00:25:26] The genocide in South Lebanon continues, even though the world [00:25:30] forgets. Since the 2nd of March this year, more than [00:25:34] 4,300 people have been killed, and over 12,00 [00:25:38] wounded, with more than 1 million people displaced its [00:25:41] peak, although some later return a mid ongoing [00:25:45] insecurity. Villages near the border with the zinus entity [00:25:49] have been raised. [00:25:50] to the ground, with others even further out suffering [00:25:53] extensive damage and destruction. Despite a cessation of [00:25:57] hostility, supposedly taking effect towards the end of [00:26:00] June, the Zionis are still... engaged in daily targeted [00:26:04] strikes and killings. Meanwhile, the United States has [00:26:08] continued its attempt to disarm the Lebanese resistance [00:26:11] and to exercise effective control over the Lebanese [00:26:15] government. On the 26th of June, Lebanon, the US and [00:26:19] the Zinist regime signed a framework agreement in [00:26:22] Washington which was rejected as being nullen void and [00:26:26] humiliation by Hizballah Secretary General Naim [00:26:29] Khassim. He argued that it conditions. Zinius [00:26:33] withdrawal on the disarmament the resistance and that it [00:26:36] allows an extended sign presence in the country's [00:26:40] south. The Zionis defense minister Israel Katz has [00:26:43] stated that the Israel occupation forces will remain [00:26:47] a so-called security zone in South Lebanon covering [00:26:51] areas up to several kilometers inside the border. [00:26:55] Despite this [00:26:56] the Lebanese President Joseph Aound maintains a [00:26:59] slavish posture towards the United States. In his July [00:27:03] visit to the White House, he declared that Lebanon is counting on the [00:27:07] US as its sponsor, but this is not prevented [00:27:11] further strikes against Lebanon. On the 15th of August, the [00:27:14] zionist hit a house in the village of Ansar, killing seven [00:27:18] people, including three children and two women, and later [00:27:22] struck Dayer Al-Zarani, killing four [00:27:25] more. Lebanese authorities recorded this as one the [00:27:29] highest single day death tolls since the June framework. [00:27:33] The June framework leaves Zionist forces occupying Lebanese [00:27:37] territory while demanding the dismantling the only [00:27:41] force that has historically constrained the Zionist colonization of [00:27:44] Lebanon, [00:27:46] but for Lebanon's puppet regime on the President Joseph Owen, which [00:27:49] is under the willing tutilage the Americans, their own status [00:27:53] and pockets appear to matter more than the wellbeing of Lebanese [00:27:57] citizens and the integrity of Lebanon's [00:28:00] borders. Or... me today is the beiroot based [00:28:04] award-winning journalist and political commentator Leif Meruth.
