[00:00:09] of
[00:00:22] Press TV headlines, Iran wars that all American bases and interest in the
[00:00:26] region will be targeted with no restraint if the US launches attack.
[00:00:30] against Iran.
[00:00:34] Hamas condemns the Israely prime ministers entry into areas beneath the
[00:00:37] alaxas compound, calling the visit and assault under
[00:00:41] site's
[00:00:42] of identity. And
[00:00:46] Ukraine has carried out massive drone attacks on Moscow. Russian
[00:00:49] authorities say the strikes are aimed at disrupting the country's
[00:00:53] parliamentary
[00:00:54] election.
[00:00:59] a
[00:01:11] Good afternoon from Tehran, I am Bahman Duray and you're watching Press TV
[00:01:14] news. The Iranian armed forces khattam
[00:01:18] central command has warned the US and regional countries that any
[00:01:21] mistake could make them
[00:01:22] of targets
[00:01:23] of the country's painful attacks. The central command said Iran has
[00:01:26] information that the US is planning to resume host. it is against the
[00:01:30] country on the green light of some regional countries, the top
[00:01:34] military body said any such move by the US will expose its in
[00:01:38] to effective back to back and to effective back to back and troll
[00:01:42] command
[00:01:42] me war that Iran will not think Petrol command war that Iran will not think
[00:01:46] against adhering to the hyper against adhering to the
[00:01:49] hypo against adhering to the hypocritical approach towards
[00:01:53] Iran by supporting the US aggression, the central command said
[00:01:57] anyone complicit in vicious acts of "the US should not
[00:02:01] expect restraint from
[00:02:02] Iran.
[00:02:06] Iran's parliament speaker says the straight of Homus won't reopen as long as the
[00:02:10] in country's conditions are not
[00:02:11] met. Our
[00:02:15] positions are completely clear, rational, and non-negotiable. Our
[00:02:19] messages and conditions have been conveyed
[00:02:21] of explicitly to the other side through intermediaries, and the enemy knows well that the path
[00:02:25] of deception and unilateral imposition is closed, and until these
[00:02:29] conditions are..." met the inalienable rights
[00:02:31] of the Iranian nation are recognized and the Americans fulfill their commitments,
[00:02:35] there will be no possibility of
[00:02:37] a return to the previous negotiation framework or to reopen the straight of
[00:02:40] hormas. Galib emphasized the
[00:02:44] importance of fighting in negotiating at the same time, he said
[00:02:48] Tehron would use military force to push back its enemies and
[00:02:51] diplomacy to consolidate battlefield gains when the
[00:02:54] in time is right, his remarks came after Iran's top security official
[00:02:58] general. announced that Tehran had conveyed seven conditions
[00:03:02] to the US as
[00:03:04] in prerequisites for any talks, requisites for any talks, rese said
[00:03:08] Washington is no choice
[00:03:09] but exit wants to get out
[00:03:11] of the dire situation it has created in the region. The
[00:03:15] Islamic Republic says in order for Homus to reopen, wars in all
[00:03:19] of fronts must end
[00:03:20] of and that the naval blockade against Terran must be lifted. Terran
[00:03:24] also demands the release of Iranian frozen
[00:03:26] assets. My
[00:03:30] of Press TV colleague Ali Razak Paris says Taiwan has shown the path for the war to
[00:03:34] end, adding that Washington must honor its commitments under the
[00:03:38] Islamabad
[00:03:38] Mou,
[00:03:43] so it shows
[00:03:44] of that we know how to end this war, the path is very clear and it
[00:03:48] shows that they have to be committed to their terms and if they
[00:03:52] continue their naval blockade the war on all fronts
[00:03:56] and the continuation of this aggression, the cost will be very...
[00:04:00] clear and uh this was the thing that I can understand from uh
[00:04:03] Iranian security
[00:04:05] of chief's remarks from the side of
[00:04:07] of Tehran as we as I said before uh Tehwan exercises
[00:04:11] very clear and
[00:04:13] of stable uh demands and it is committed to its terms but from
[00:04:17] the side of Washington regime time and again we have seen
[00:04:21] of that uh the Donald Trump administration they are shifting their uh
[00:04:24] stances on social media you are seeing different contradictory
[00:04:28] remarks by uh Donald Trump specially few days ago he
[00:04:31] said the war with Iran will be ended within a few weeks and later he
[00:04:35] said I will destroy Iran and this kind of shifts in
[00:04:39] opinions from Washington regime shows in my perspective this
[00:04:42] is kind of as a
[00:04:44] of general of MS as I used a very great terminology here they are
[00:04:48] of stuck
[00:04:48] in a quite mayer that they made it and they don't know how to go out
[00:04:52] of this right from i cannot say that they they have
[00:04:56] already understood that that if they remain
[00:05:00] of committed to the terms of islamabad mo so the war will be ended, still i
[00:05:04] think they are looking for some other ways to push their
[00:05:07] demands, the
[00:05:11] commander of... Franc's army ground force has reaffirmed the forces's
[00:05:15] complete readiness to defend the country's borders against any
[00:05:18] threat. Brigadier general Ali Jaanche said various units of Iran's
[00:05:22] army ground force including special forces, rapid
[00:05:26] response units and artillery units have been deployed along the
[00:05:29] borders. He said the experience gained from recent wars has
[00:05:32] transformed the ground force into agile, mobile and
[00:05:36] multi-skilled force capable of confronting range of
[00:05:39] threats. John Shay added that destroy presence. of ground
[00:05:43] forces has deterred the enemy from launching attacks against
[00:05:46] Iran's borders. Separately where admiral Habibullah Sairi the
[00:05:50] coordinating Deputy of Iran's army praised the courage and
[00:05:54] resilience the Iranian armed forces in confronting the
[00:05:58] enemy. He noted that Iran's armed forces will prevail over the
[00:06:01] adversaries.
[00:06:07] Theesel prices keep rising in the guests with the national average cost
[00:06:11] hitting record high. of $6.45 per
[00:06:14] gallon and with the economic fallout from the war on Iran, the average
[00:06:18] price for diesel has surged over 70% a year-on-year
[00:06:22] comparison, higher diesel prices are expected it industries such
[00:06:26] as agriculture and trucking that could eventually push up the
[00:06:30] cost of food and other everyday products, the rising prices and the
[00:06:34] administration's handling the war have contributed to a decline in
[00:06:38] Trump's approval rating. Americans have been expressing their
[00:06:41] anger on social media by posting videos representing their
[00:06:45] economic
[00:06:46] distress,
[00:06:52] 8:49 for diesel in California, let tell you
[00:06:55] something, it's 6 uh 6:59 in
[00:06:59] Georgia, I don't care if it's Georgia or California,
[00:07:02] it's way too high, this is ridiculous, let
[00:07:06] me look everything you buy, your food, your supplies,
[00:07:10] all of your goods gets delivered. buy diesel, the
[00:07:14] war in Iran has got to stop. This is Trump's fault, this
[00:07:18] should not be this high, it needs to end,
[00:07:21] ridiculous.
[00:07:25] $47,
[00:07:28] 47,
[00:07:31] bro, look at this, if you're on the prices
[00:07:35] right, this is
[00:07:37] $47, because Donald Trump doesn't know anything about
[00:07:41] economics and has inflation through the roof in
[00:07:45] america, donald trump, i don't know what y'all got going on in that
[00:07:49] office, but y'all going to stop playing with me right now bro, pa yall
[00:07:53] tripping 479 for some, i can't imagine what
[00:07:57] diesel is,

[00:08:14] Ukrainian armed forces have launched massive drone attacks on Russian
[00:08:17] territory, including the capital Moscow, killing at least two
[00:08:21] people. The victims lost their lives in attacks on the Moscow region.
[00:08:25] The city's mayor says armed forces downt more than 1600
[00:08:28] drones since Saturday, over a third them targeted at
[00:08:32] Moscow. Sergey Sabianin says several drones passed the
[00:08:36] defenses, one hitting an apartment building and several hitting
[00:08:39] the Moscow oil refineries precincts. Sobyanin said
[00:08:43] Ukraine aimed at to destrupt the ongoing parliamentary
[00:08:47] elections which are expected to cement the ruling United
[00:08:51] Russia's grip on power. Meanwhile, a Russian
[00:08:56] city air strike hit a shopping center in the eastern Ukrainian the Nipro. The attack triged a large blaze that
[00:09:00] damaged the building and injured at least two people. Both Russia and Ukraine
[00:09:04] have escalated long-range strikes against one another in recent
[00:09:07] month.
[00:09:13] As new school year begins in Gaza, education remains a struggle
[00:09:16] for students there, with most schools eraised by Israely
[00:09:20] genocidal war, learning spaces are still limited and
[00:09:23] temporary classrooms face risks. Despite the destruction and
[00:09:27] disruption, the students and teachers are determined to keep learning
[00:09:30] next to ruins. Ahmed reports from
[00:09:33] Knuness.
[00:09:37] In the heart of Genest Southern Gaza, the crushed classrooms of has
[00:09:41] schools tends. monument to Israel's destruction of education, founded
[00:09:45] in 1943, its walls once carried the memory of
[00:09:49] generations, today as new school year begins, makeshift
[00:09:53] tents pitch besides a trouble are the only alternative for most
[00:09:56] students, one of our biggest concerns is just finding tent to
[00:10:00] study in. i'm lucky to have a place today after our schools were destroyed in
[00:10:03] inconsistent online learning. for younger students, even convenient
[00:10:07] access to education remains difficult in these makeshift schools. abu
[00:10:11] anas brought his two.
[00:10:25] constant danger, still the semester started and all we hope for is safety and
[00:10:29] better life for our children. the ministry of education says it has
[00:10:33] work to facilitate the start the semester by using available schools and
[00:10:37] spaces whilsing that the Israeli war in education
[00:10:40] continues. this morning, more than 90,00
[00:10:44] students are going to schools in conjunis. even though the number sounds big, in the
[00:10:48] number of makeshift schools increased, it still does not suffice for all
[00:10:52] students across the gaza strip, but we are deter. to ensure our students
[00:10:56] have access to their right to
[00:10:57] education,
[00:11:02] these really disruption of resources children need, these
[00:11:06] resources children need, these teachers organized outdoor
[00:11:09] activities, but all they could find and damaged
[00:11:12] toys, during the first days of school, we try
[00:11:16] to condition the environment for young students, we want to for young
[00:11:20] students, we want to ensure they have successful learning
[00:11:24] space, but is difficult as without new alternatives,
[00:11:27] many me have been lucky to find a place to study on the first day, but
[00:11:31] under the threat of Israely drones, education remains another
[00:11:35] assignment of survival. between the rubble of schools and improvised
[00:11:39] tents, typical education remains a distant reality for students
[00:11:43] in gas. as new school year begins, is really measures continue to
[00:11:47] disrupt their learning while they remain resolved to preserve their
[00:11:50] future. ahmadjar press tv, khan uniness
[00:11:54] palestine. The Palestinian Resistance
[00:11:57] movement, Hamas, has condemned the Israeli Prime Minister's entry to the Alaksa
[00:12:01] moss compound in the occupied Alkurds, Hamas described as a
[00:12:05] flagrant assault under Mosk identity and status.
[00:12:09] Netanyahu's incursion into areas beneath the holy site as well as
[00:12:13] his presence at the Albarak wall. It also stressed the alaxo Mosk will
[00:12:16] remain an exclusively Islamic site. The statement came after
[00:12:20] Netanyahu's several ministers and hundreds of Israeli settlers entered the
[00:12:24] Moscow. under the protection of Israeli
[00:12:27] forces,
[00:12:31] at least one Israeli sutler has been killed and several others injured a
[00:12:35] shooting operation near Ramala in the occupied West Bank.
[00:12:38] Following the operation, the regime forces shot all entrances and
[00:12:42] exits to towns across the Ramalah region. In
[00:12:46] separate incident, Israely troops opened live fire a Palestinian
[00:12:50] vehicle east of Janin, claiming that the driver intended to carry
[00:12:53] out a ramming attack. "the attack left one palestinian dead and
[00:12:57] another wounded. this comes as Israeli forces continue
[00:13:01] their rates and abduction campaigns across the west bank.
[00:13:04] violence against Palestinians in the occupied territory has escalated since
[00:13:08] Israel launched its genocidal war on Gaza in October
[00:13:12] 2023.
[00:13:17] i'm now joined by Susan Abel Havar, Palestinian American activist joining us
[00:13:21] from philed this news bulletin. well, you know that this news bulletin..."
[00:13:25] Well,
[00:13:25] you know that Press TV's correspondent in the West Bank Nakahmet is in
[00:13:29] Israeli custody as we speak, and she was abdoctory forces
[00:13:33] few days ago. What's your take on the abduction considering the fact that
[00:13:37] Naqa, like many other journalists, has been committed
[00:13:41] to her journalistic ideals and principles
[00:13:43] only? Hi, thanks
[00:13:47] for having me. Um,
[00:13:50] is, I want to point out that she's also a US
[00:13:54] citizen. and the United States is not lifting
[00:13:58] finger it seems to um to help
[00:14:01] her uh in the same way that they are they have not lifted finger
[00:14:05] to help any US citizens who are in Israeli
[00:14:09] custody who are routinely abducted
[00:14:12] the um the the kidnapping
[00:14:16] of yet another journalist is part of a
[00:14:20] longstanding campaign um of
[00:14:23] targeting. palestinian journalists and really any journalists
[00:14:27] who who are reporting the truth from the
[00:14:30] ground. Israel has uh is
[00:14:34] facing a big PR problem as we
[00:14:37] know um they have historically been
[00:14:41] able to control the narrative, they have historically been the gatekeepers of
[00:14:45] knowledge and media in this country, they have um uh
[00:14:48] produced littny of Hollywood
[00:14:51] films really kind you
[00:14:55] really kind of brainwashing and manipulating public
[00:14:59] imagination um
[00:15:02] in towards a zionist narrative
[00:15:06] not only about what Israel is but also about who we are
[00:15:10] force of of palestinian blood in this genocide and um and their
[00:15:13] inability to completely control the
[00:15:17] the internet really
[00:15:20] so Israel has implemented a multipronged
[00:15:24] process number one um is the targeting of
[00:15:27] journalists as we know, either killing them, imprisoning them,
[00:15:31] um, is probably
[00:15:33] uh most likely facing um severe physical and
[00:15:36] psychological. abuse and solitary confinement, we know the
[00:15:40] conditions are horrific and humiliating to women um in
[00:15:44] Israeli dungeons and but
[00:15:47] sadly she is only she's one of
[00:15:51] many um journalist intellectuals, writers, artists who have
[00:15:55] been facing this kind of Israeli
[00:15:58] barbarity. another element of this
[00:16:02] of Israel's campaign um has been
[00:16:06] to um um to censor
[00:16:09] uh um and and uh use their influence to
[00:16:13] manipulate algorithms on uh various social media platforms to
[00:16:17] cancel Palestinians as we know whether you know getting
[00:16:21] people fired getting people's books um
[00:16:24] unpublished uh getting um
[00:16:28] films censored uh getting people's social
[00:16:32] media accounts canceled and sh
[00:16:35] um most another
[00:16:38] insidious thing that most another insidious thing that has
[00:16:42] just um uh recently come to light, although it's been ongoing
[00:16:46] for for decades um has been, they have always sort
[00:16:50] of manipulated and heavily influenced
[00:16:54] the education curriculum in this country um as
[00:16:57] matter of fact max um uh Robert
[00:17:01] Maxwell the the father of Gilan Maxwell the the partner
[00:17:05] of Jeffrey Epstein. um owned
[00:17:09] the um the the company that
[00:17:13] creates textbooks for American school
[00:17:16] children, so um,
[00:17:19] you know, there so Israel's zionist influence on education
[00:17:23] system here has been profound, and now today there was a news
[00:17:27] article uh that Texas is further
[00:17:31] changing school books to um
[00:17:34] remove you know... muslim influence
[00:17:38] on on algebra and geometry and so
[00:17:42] forth, sort of erase muslim contributions to
[00:17:44] humanity and to promote Islam as a
[00:17:48] barbaric religion associated with slavery and and
[00:17:52] wars and so on and then to promote Israel
[00:17:55] as some beacon of democracy and indigenaity
[00:17:59] and ancient heritage and so forth, so it's really it's
[00:18:03] it's extraordinary the levels
[00:18:06] of ' um
[00:18:08] the way they have been able to penetrate
[00:18:12] the world with their fairy tales and their lies
[00:18:15] and mistruots and
[00:18:18] sadly the abduction of naqa is just a
[00:18:22] piece of that. right Susan, we see that Israeli forces
[00:18:26] are abducting Palestinians in the occupied West bank with no charge
[00:18:30] almost a daily basis. They're addition to violence and
[00:18:33] crackdown intensified and since the Gaza genocide began.
[00:18:38] "what should the international community genuinely do to stop
[00:18:42] all of this harassment? I mean,
[00:18:45] look, the, you, there's so the
[00:18:49] international community, whatever that is now at this
[00:18:52] point, um, should have acted a long time ago,
[00:18:56] the inaction the international community, their their unwillingness to
[00:19:00] hold this horrendous uh, colonial
[00:19:04] entity, um, accountable."
[00:19:08] for the endless crimes that they have been committing against us for decades
[00:19:12] uh is what has brought us to this moment and
[00:19:15] now I think because of public outrage many
[00:19:19] are just you know kind of paying lip service some countries while at the same
[00:19:23] time behind closed doors they are uh
[00:19:26] you know conducting business as usual shipping weapons and fuel
[00:19:30] and and conducting all manner of trade with Israel
[00:19:34] um a minimum a minimum I think the world should just
[00:19:38] simply boycott this awful monstrosity that
[00:19:42] has been planted in the heart of West Asia and North
[00:19:45] Africa.
[00:19:46] It is, it is a European colonial construct that is
[00:19:50] genocidal, that is Jewish supremacist, um, and frankly
[00:19:54] it has no place in our region and frank and no place in the
[00:19:56] world. This kind of,
[00:19:59] you know, um, the the
[00:20:02] lunacy uh, and
[00:20:05] supremacy is off the chart. the hatred,
[00:20:08] the um
[00:20:10] the violence, their propensity for such sadistic
[00:20:13] um genocide,
[00:20:16] sadistic violence against people who have really have no way to defend
[00:20:20] themselves, not just in the past three years, but for
[00:20:23] decades, should shock everyone's
[00:20:26] conscience, and the fact that the world, the so-called international
[00:20:30] community is still debating what to
[00:20:33] call this mass slaughter that we can all see,
[00:20:38] what to call burning people alive, burying people
[00:20:41] alive, the total crushing,
[00:20:44] dismumberment and burding of so many children,
[00:20:48] right? yeah. um
[00:20:50] so I frankly
[00:20:54] admit so just to answer your question and I'm sorry I'm going on but
[00:20:58] it's
[00:20:58] you know the passion and the fury runs deep in all of us, the
[00:21:02] international community a minimum should be boycotting them, but honestly if
[00:21:06] we are
[00:21:06] to speak in terms of justice and morality, they
[00:21:10] should really end that colony. It was indeed a
[00:21:13] pleasure to have you on this news bulletin, Susan Abulhava,
[00:21:17] Palestinian American activist joining us from Philadelphia.
[00:21:20] Yeah, thank you, and with that we come to the conclusion
[00:21:24] of this news bulletin, thank you so much for staying with us on Press
[00:21:27] TV.
[00:21:51] from bombs stop falling, casualty figures are tallied, names are
[00:21:54] added to lists, but numbers cannot measure the lives that unravel
[00:21:58] after the explosions. wars count those killed by
[00:22:02] missiles, they rarely count those who survived them, and may
[00:22:06] later die of brief. yes, you heard that right,
[00:22:10] grief. 31 year old sayqi became
[00:22:14] one of those. in the early hours of March 26, a US is
[00:22:17] really strike reduced her family home. in Espahon's have to neighborhood
[00:22:21] to rubble, her husband, local football coach Hussein
[00:22:25] Maliki and their two young sons, age five and
[00:22:29] three were killed, around them nine homes were destroyed and
[00:22:32] 24 people died from the US Israely attack. Alham
[00:22:36] survived, for seven hours, rescuers searched through concrete
[00:22:40] and twisted steel before pulling her from beneath the
[00:22:44] debris. A fallen sofa had shielded her head from the
[00:22:47] collapsing building, but her injuries for. severe, her
[00:22:51] greatest wounds, however, were invisible. weeks later, a video
[00:22:55] of a home standing on the ruins of her home spread across
[00:22:58] Iran. in her hands was a handwritten note rescued from the
[00:23:02] rubble, one her young son had written before the
[00:23:06] attack. as she read it, her voice faltered. around
[00:23:10] her lay the remains the life she had built. her
[00:23:14] father says that after losing her husband, her children and
[00:23:18] her home, she was never the same. She withdrew from the
[00:23:21] world, spoke constantly of her family and struggled
[00:23:25] to bear even ordinary sounds. After more than two months
[00:23:29] of overwhelming grief, after losing her family in US Israely
[00:23:33] attack, she suffered fatal stroke and died. Her
[00:23:37] story speaks to a quieter taller war of survivors
[00:23:41] who carry the destruction with them long after the
[00:23:45] dust settles. It also reflects a wider pattern of US
[00:23:49] Is really aggressive. across the region that has left behind a
[00:23:52] deeper tool not only a single moment of impact, but
[00:23:56] in the lasting human consequences that
[00:23:59] follow.
[00:24:09] July 31st, 2026, nighttime straight of
[00:24:12] hormos, southern Iran, the United States launched a heavy
[00:24:16] wave of strikes against command centers, radars.
[00:24:20] centers, radars, surveillance systems and air
[00:24:24] defense positions across southern Iran. Southern Iran safer for American
[00:24:28] aircraft, but just hours later, something unexpected
[00:24:31] happened. An American MQ9
[00:24:35] Reaper was shot down over the straight of Formus.
[00:24:39] The MQ9 is no ordinary drone, it is one of America's
[00:24:43] primary platforms for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and
[00:24:46] precision strikes, capable of remaining airborn for more. a full
[00:24:50] day while carrying an advanced suite of sensors and weapons, and this
[00:24:54] was not the first reaper lost. Since the beginning the war. Iran
[00:24:58] has taken around 50 MQ9 Reapers out of operation,
[00:25:02] roughly one quarter the entire US Reaper fleet. But the real
[00:25:05] story was only beginning. Shortly afterward, an
[00:25:08] F-35 entered the picture, one the world's most advanced
[00:25:12] combat aircraft designed specifically to penetrate
[00:25:15] sophisticated air defense networks,
[00:25:18] but stealth does not mean invisible. One radar may detect
[00:25:21] only faint signature, infrared sensor may pick up the heat from its
[00:25:25] engines, another system may detect its electronic emissions, and
[00:25:29] when the information from all these systems is connected through a single
[00:25:33] network, much clearer picture the target begins to emerge.
[00:25:37] That same night, the tracking the F-35 reached the level of a
[00:25:40] weapon's quality lock, a warning the pilot could not ignore. The
[00:25:44] F-35 did not continue its mission and quickly left the
[00:25:48] area, and perhaps that is the most... The most important part the story: air
[00:25:52] defense success does not always mean shooting an aircraft down.
[00:25:55] Sometimes it is enough to stop an aircraft designed to penetrate
[00:25:59] hostile airspace from completing its mission. And now, for the
[00:26:03] United States, the issue is no longer simply the loss of an
[00:26:06] MQ9 or the retreat of an F-35. The bigger question
[00:26:10] is, how could a network whose radars and key components had been
[00:26:14] attacked only hours earlier, remain operational, and still
[00:26:18] force one of America's most advanced aircraft to abandon its
[00:26:21] mission. incident that now forces the United States to
[00:26:25] rethink not just a flight path, but its entire calculation
[00:26:29] over Iran's skies.
[00:26:34] The equation in Iran's skies is no longer the
[00:26:37] same,

[00:26:59] Iranian immigrant as she tackles the complexities. of cultural
