[00:00:49] of
[00:00:53] of
[00:00:54] a a Hello and welcome everyone, you're watching
[00:00:58] Press TV world news. Let's go ahead and get started with this hour's top
[00:01:02] stories. Iran's foreign minister
[00:01:05] meets with his Russian counterparts on the sideline in New
[00:01:09] a York, where the two sides in New York, where the two sides exchange
[00:01:12] views on various topics. Abaster Rockshi praised Moscow's
[00:01:16] responsible stance in opposing US unilateralism and Washington's
[00:01:20] use of international organizations to pressure independent
[00:01:24] countries.
[00:01:25] a He a described the
[00:01:25] in current insecurity in the strategic straight of Hormus as a direct
[00:01:29] result. of US breaches of its commitments and its crimes against
[00:01:33] Iran.
[00:01:34] of Iraq she stress that despite Iran's commitment
[00:01:36] of to diplomacy, the Islamic Republic remains determined to defend its national
[00:01:40] interests and prevent the US from exploiting the straight of hormos to threaten
[00:01:44] Iran. Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov for his part
[00:01:48] stressed the need for all countries to abide by international
[00:01:51] law and the principles
[00:01:53] of the UN
[00:01:53] charter.
[00:01:58] Analysts and international studies Bruno Bicleini says it's the bricks
[00:02:02] and Asian countries, not the US and Israeli colony
[00:02:06] that support international law. He argues by targeting Iran
[00:02:10] a coastal country to horm straight, the US forces have
[00:02:13] acted like pirates and must be evaded by Iran's
[00:02:17] forces.
[00:02:20] Nowadays, the bricks countries and the
[00:02:24] Asian countries are those who defend the
[00:02:27] international system of of law. the international
[00:02:31] right, if you go to western powers and especially for united
[00:02:35] states in colony, they not even respect the
[00:02:38] ICC and or the international law, so I can understand that
[00:02:42] Moscow and Teran do have very strong relationship,
[00:02:46] very strong ties, and understand that is the
[00:02:50] this is the turning point situation to having the control
[00:02:54] of the street of Formus, also Babbel Mandeb and not
[00:02:58] be anymore victims. or being the economic
[00:03:01] kidnapped by the US navy and their allies. The
[00:03:05] stat of mous is bionational route
[00:03:09] by the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Suntanient of
[00:03:12] Oman, if foreign navy comes
[00:03:16] and attacks the shore of those countries,
[00:03:19] they are acting like pirates. So we can understand, it's not only the
[00:03:23] speed or discourse is the fact that the fifth split, the
[00:03:27] of US sentcom and their navy they are. the Indian
[00:03:31] Ocean
[00:03:32] of the C of
[00:03:34] in the Persian golf so they can see can be seen as invaders
[00:03:38] and as invaders they must be repelled by SAP
[00:03:41] Navy and international
[00:03:43] law.
[00:03:47] Meanwhile move in Washington's
[00:03:49] hands.
[00:03:53] Iran has conved to the United States
[00:03:57] of through Qatar a concrete seven.
[00:04:00] day plan, if the
[00:04:02] a necessary conditions are met, the straight can be reopened
[00:04:06] a normal maritime passage restored
[00:04:10] within 7
[00:04:11] of of days. the choice now rests clear path to restoring
[00:04:15] normal maritime navigation through the straight of hormos. he says the
[00:04:19] proposed US actions are already covered by memorandum of
[00:04:22] understanding, including lifting the maritime blockade, unfreezing
[00:04:26] Iranian assets, easing sanctions and ending military operation.
[00:04:30] against Iran. Tahran says that these steps could be completed
[00:04:34] within four to five days, allowing the straight to reopen by day
[00:04:38] 6. On day 7, Iran proposes talks with Washington on
[00:04:41] mutually agreed issues, including Iran's nuclear program
[00:04:45] and a final
[00:04:46] agreement.
[00:04:51] For his part, Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson says Europe must
[00:04:55] answer for its participation in the US
[00:04:57] a aggression on Iran. He says
[00:05:00] of NATO secretary general Mark Roots remarks about the extensive
[00:05:04] use of facilities in NATO member states during the U.S.
[00:05:08] Israeli
[00:05:08] a aggression on Iran amount to
[00:05:10] a clear admission. He says the... remarks show that Europe
[00:05:13] knowingly and actively participated in the war despite previous
[00:05:17] denials, the foreign ministry spokesman said death and
[00:05:21] destruction in Iran, but he added that Europe's role
[00:05:25] in rising gas prices and other outcomes of this illegal
[00:05:28] aggression should also be investigated as well as Root's own
[00:05:32] decisions and actions in regards to this illegal war as a
[00:05:36] NATO secretary
[00:05:37] general.
[00:05:41] Iranian president, says the United States has
[00:05:45] betrayed diplomacy three times during his presidency,
[00:05:48] condemming the US and Israeli terrorism and war crimes against
[00:05:52] Iran. Pesishgan made the remarks during a meeting with the Irania
[00:05:55] Nation. He stated that Iran seeks to create security in the
[00:05:59] Persian Gulf and west Asia region through cooperation with
[00:06:03] regional countries, adding that much the problems can be solved
[00:06:07] once the US leaves these territories. Guutirish for his
[00:06:11] part said that the... has no tools but dialogue and will
[00:06:15] support efforts to foster peace and security in the region.
[00:06:19] he emphasized that Iran's voice has been one of peace and
[00:06:22] moderation and confirmed that evaluations show
[00:06:26] Iran does not seek nuclear
[00:06:28] weapons.
[00:06:33] a children's medical center in Tehran has marked its
[00:06:37] 1000th pediatric stem cell transplant, major
[00:06:41] milestone for a program treating children with serious and
[00:06:44] life-threatening diseases. doctors say two decades of experience
[00:06:48] in stim cell transplantation are now paving the way for further
[00:06:52] advances in cell and gene therapies. gisu misha
[00:06:56] ahmadi
[00:06:56] reports.
[00:07:05] they came here first as patients, some were very
[00:07:08] young and some were fighting diseases that threatened their...
[00:07:13] now years later, they are returning under very different
[00:07:17] circumstances, as survivors marking
[00:07:20] milestone with the medical teams that treated
[00:07:23] them. about six years ago, when I was
[00:07:27] very young, I suddenly realized I couldn't walk anymore, I had
[00:07:30] become paralyzed, it happened while we were on our way to my aunt's
[00:07:34] house, that's when I started chemotherapy, later the
[00:07:38] doctors decided I needed a different treatment, I received a st.
[00:09:12] reached adulthood, their return to the hospital turns this
[00:09:16] milestone into something more tangible, allowing doctors and
[00:09:20] nurses to see what years of treatment and follow-up can
[00:09:24] ultimately mean. 1000 is an important
[00:09:28] medical milestone, but inside pediatric hospital, numbers tell
[00:09:32] a very different story: each transplant represents a
[00:09:35] child, family and donor that along with a large
[00:09:39] medical team have worked towards the same objective.
[00:09:43] giving that child the best possible chance of
[00:09:46] survival.
[00:09:49] Tehran. We're moving now over to
[00:09:53] Iraq's resistance group. Who have called on
[00:09:57] Iraqis to support Iran economically and counter the US
[00:10:00] sie on tehran, urging increased trade and the purchase of
[00:10:04] Iranian goods. In a statement, the group called for expands pressure
[00:10:08] on Iran, describing this as religious duty. The group.
[00:10:12] use the Iraqi government and other institutions of aligning with American
[00:10:16] policies, saying this intensifies pressure on the Iranian people.
[00:10:20] It also issued religious inquiry to clerics and
[00:10:23] authorities demanding a ruling on the Islamic legal status
[00:10:27] of any cooperation with the siege on
[00:10:29] Iran.
[00:10:35] The head of Yemen's Supreme Political Council has renewed his
[00:10:39] commitment to confronting Saudi aggression and supporting Palestine,
[00:10:43] as Yemen marks the 64th anniversary of its September
[00:10:46] 26th
[00:10:47] revolution.
[00:10:52] How much this night resembles yesterday? The same
[00:10:56] forces, foremost among them, the Saudi regime, that yesterday stood against the
[00:10:59] will the Yemeni people and sought to abort their liberation project, are today once
[00:11:03] again trying to deprive our dear people their legitimate right to sovereignty,
[00:11:07] independence, development and dignified life.
[00:11:11] They are fighting the Yemeniwol once more for the same goal, to return Yemen to the
[00:11:15] square of guardianship and dependency, but they will
[00:11:19] never achieve that. The Saudi regime has for 64
[00:11:23] years directly interfered in Yemen's. internal and external affairs and
[00:11:26] through a network of corrupt individuals and traits linked to it, it has extended its
[00:11:30] influence over the states institutions and decisions. this
[00:11:34] approach did not stem from developmental or renaissance project serving the
[00:11:38] region and its peoples. rather, it came in the
[00:11:42] context of this aggressive Saudi regime's association with the American
[00:11:45] Zionist project in the region, which aims to weaken the Arab and Islamic
[00:11:49] nation and keep its states a state of dependency and
[00:11:52] fragmentation. We also renew our... affirmation of our
[00:11:55] principaled, faith-based position in supporting the oppressed Palestinian people
[00:11:59] and their just cause, which is the cause the entire
[00:12:02] nation. We condemn the criminal Netanyahu and
[00:12:06] the Zionists for storming and desecrating alaxa mosk and for threatening to
[00:12:09] destroy it from the tunnels they have dug beneath
[00:12:12] it.
[00:12:18] Yeman has faced a Saudi-American siege for 12 years and that
[00:12:22] Riad has interfered in Yemani affairs. 64
[00:12:25] years, preventing the country from building a strong army and
[00:12:29] exploiting its resources. He accused Saudi Arabia of fabricating
[00:12:33] the claim that Yeman threatened Mecca, firmed Yemen's respect for
[00:12:37] Islamic, firmed Yeman's respect for Islamic holy sites. He
[00:12:41] stress that international navigation remains safe and that Yemen's
[00:12:44] operations target only Saudi military
[00:12:47] mobilizations.
[00:12:54] Well, there's really. ocupation forces say the regime will enter new
[00:12:58] phase of fighting in southern Lebanon in the coming days, amid
[00:13:01] continued attacks against the Arab country. Israeli media
[00:13:04] reported the IOF will escalate operations while war planes
[00:13:08] flew over Beirot, the biqa and several regions across
[00:13:12] Lebanon. artillery shelling, air strikes and machine gun
[00:13:15] fire hit multiple villages across the south, coinciding with fresh
[00:13:19] movements of Israeli military vehicles in several areas.
[00:13:23] explosions and strikes were also reported in the eastern
[00:13:27] sector with fires and damage to civilian property.
[00:13:31] meanwhile, almost 9,00 lebanes have been killed and over
[00:13:34] 30,600 injured since a US- backed aggression
[00:13:38] began on the 8th of October 2023, according to
[00:13:42] Lebanon's health
[00:13:43] ministry.
[00:13:47] we were earlier joined by our south Lebanon correspondent Hussein
[00:13:50] Iman. he gave us the latest updates from Israel's violations,
[00:13:54] particular.
[00:14:02] this very moment we've heard just few moments ago,
[00:14:06] several shelling, several shelling and
[00:14:10] explosives going up just beyond the hill, sounding all
[00:14:13] across the reg, all across the nabatia region,
[00:14:17] however the most prominent action that the Israel military has been
[00:14:21] conducting since hours of early morning today beyond the...
[00:14:25] and the drone strikes is is seemingly renewed campaign of
[00:14:29] heavy surveillance across the entire area,
[00:14:32] across all of south Lebanon, everyone since the hours the
[00:14:36] early have been hearing the sounds of surveillance drones
[00:14:40] flying below over their heads in whether it's in the tier
[00:14:44] province, whether it's in the Navaatia province, we've heard them since
[00:14:48] the very early hours, accompanied by low
[00:14:52] flying Israeli war planes that... all through out
[00:14:56] the south reaching Beirut and doing a loop and
[00:14:59] then going back back to the southern
[00:15:03] territories, after which after this
[00:15:06] currently this renewed campaign of surveillance, the Israeli news
[00:15:10] channel, channel 12 released a statement by
[00:15:14] occupation forces that contained that they are
[00:15:17] preparing for new round of heavy combat and and
[00:15:21] resistance infrastructure clearing within the... the
[00:15:25] zone the yellow line, so the zone that that they
[00:15:29] are currently occupying, which constitutes about
[00:15:32] 5% of Lebanese
[00:15:34] territory. crossing now
[00:15:38] over to the war ravage Gaza strip where Israeli regime continues to press ahead
[00:15:42] with its date deadly attacks shutting more Palestinian
[00:15:45] blood. An Israeli drone strike killed one Palestinian and left
[00:15:49] several others injured in the Almawasi area of
[00:15:52] Hanones, south the strip. The Nusidat Refugee
[00:15:56] camp in Central Gaza was also targeted by Israeli air strikes,
[00:16:00] leaving several Palestinians injured. Meanwhile, Israeli artillery
[00:16:04] shelling hit the eastern areas of Han Unines as is the
[00:16:07] outskirts the al-burais refugee camp in central Gaza. This
[00:16:11] comes as a UN body has sounded the alarm that Gaza is
[00:16:15] facing the world's most severe economic crisis on record. The
[00:16:19] report said that 92% the ship's economic establishments
[00:16:23] have been damaged or destroyed and that more than 90% the
[00:16:27] working age population was an
[00:16:29] unemployed.
[00:16:33] Well, this is the third consecutive UN general assembly since.
[00:16:37] regime launches genocidal war on Gaza. A miss the successive
[00:16:41] speeches of world leaders in New York, the Palestinian people
[00:16:45] continue to endure devastating Israeli attacks and catastrophic
[00:16:49] humanitarian conditions. As more Palestinians are expected to lose
[00:16:53] their lives, the UNGA speakers once again stick to issuing
[00:16:57] statements devoid of any practical measures. Press TV's
[00:17:01] Multibo Musabba has report from
[00:17:03] Gaza. My country
[00:17:07] was... still emerging, for the third consecutive year, since the
[00:17:10] commencement the genocidal war on Gaza, world leaders
[00:17:14] have convined in New York to address the annual United Nations
[00:17:18] General Assembly. However, these gatherings have had no
[00:17:22] impact on the Israeli crimes against Palestinians, with the
[00:17:25] war ravaged Gaza kept witnessing insignificance since it
[00:17:29] failed to hold the Israeli regime fully accountable for the ongoing
[00:17:33] genocide in Gaza. In light of this unprecedented brutality,
[00:17:37] and the relentless killing by the Israeli regime, those statements
[00:17:41] alone have become meaningless and a mere waste of time. We
[00:17:44] urgently need those statements to be translated into tangible
[00:17:48] actions on the ground. Although many leaders sees the
[00:17:52] opportunity to unequivocally condemn the Israeli actions in
[00:17:55] Gaza and the unfolding humanitarian crisis.
[00:17:59] However, for Palestinians, these condeminations lack
[00:18:02] substance and effectiveness as the occupiing regime continued
[00:18:06] with its free. this aggression with
[00:18:08] impunity. It's
[00:18:12] becoming increasingly evident that the international community and the United
[00:18:16] Nations have completely failed to protect international law and
[00:18:19] regulations. Regrettably, the Israeli regime continues to
[00:18:23] receive protection from the US administration and numerous other countries.
[00:18:27] This is the moment to change this apathetic international stance and
[00:18:31] take decisive action to compel the Israeli regime to comply with
[00:18:35] international resolutions. Thousands more
[00:18:38] Palestinians have been killed since the last United Nations General
[00:18:42] Assembly address and more are expected to die as world
[00:18:46] leaders continue to issue unfulfilled statements without taking any
[00:18:50] meaningful action to end Israeli
[00:18:52] brutalities.
[00:18:55] Since 1948, the UN General Assembly has made hollow
[00:18:59] statements about the Palestinian people, but it has done nothing to address their
[00:19:03] plight. We are tired these empty condemnations because
[00:19:07] have not brought us safety. If these leaders were truly committed to
[00:19:11] condemning the Israeli crimes against us, they would take immediate
[00:19:14] action. Unfortunately, we are still suffering from three years
[00:19:18] of violence and starvation, and they are watching us helplessly. They
[00:19:22] are completely complicit in the Israeli
[00:19:24] atrocities. For many,
[00:19:28] those apathetic leaders are complicit in the Israeli crimes as
[00:19:32] they realize that conspicuous criticism the Israeli atrocities
[00:19:35] in Gaza by. leaders during their address to the
[00:19:39] United Nations General Assembly, the Israeli regime
[00:19:43] continues its vicious attacks. This serves as
[00:19:47] yet another stark reminder the Israeli brutality
[00:19:51] and the hypocrisy of those leaders who despite their
[00:19:54] condemnation continue to maintain their diplomatic and
[00:19:58] economic ties with the Israeli
[00:20:00] occubition. The central
[00:20:03] area of Gaza step.
[00:20:07] Crossing over to Suta, which remains on high alert two months after the
[00:20:11] mass arrivals from Morocco, thousands remain stranded in the
[00:20:15] enclave, local tensions are boiling over and Spain is
[00:20:18] reinforcing its border amid fears of fresh crossing. two
[00:20:22] months on thousands remain stranded, feeling bitter clash
[00:20:26] of security, where even MP Melchod leon from Pedro
[00:20:30] sanchez own party and sota accuses the central
[00:20:33] government of lying and failing to manage the...
[00:20:39] "the central government has abandoned us for two months Madrid has lied
[00:20:43] claiming is cooperating, when saw
[00:20:45] everyone Moroccan
[00:20:47] in forces Siuta open the gates, officials insult us..." under reporting that
[00:20:51] over 2000 migrants remain trapped
[00:20:53] here, the geopolitical access
[00:20:56] between Israel,
[00:20:57] the US in Morocco is fueling this crisis. from mega
[00:21:01] figures labeling suta as occupied to sophisticated online
[00:21:05] campaigns, this was no spontaneous event, it's a calculated strategy
[00:21:09] driven by zionism and the far right, beyond the
[00:21:13] border fans a crisis has ignited fears political
[00:21:16] confrontation over identity and security, spilling over in
[00:21:20] into the streets and spark a wave of social tension,
[00:21:23] racious rhetoric, physical attacks and polarization are
[00:21:27] now th delicate multicultural
[00:21:30] harmony, this brutal attack on my vehicle follows
[00:21:33] weeks of rampant islamophobia, we warn this violence was
[00:21:37] coming, it's the direct result of an extreme right narrative
[00:21:41] trying to terrorize anyone who opposes
[00:21:43] them, secure border is
[00:21:47] completely compatible with humane treatment. "Sauda strength
[00:21:51] lies in its peaceful multicultural coexistence.
[00:21:54] To protect our social cohesion, we must isolate the extremist
[00:21:58] narratives that threaten our unity. Yet, behind the
[00:22:02] political crossfire, the humanitarian tragedy
[00:22:05] deepens. Hundreds of unaccompanied minors and thousands
[00:22:09] of migrants remain trapped in informal settlements, caught in the
[00:22:13] middle of diplomatic state. The situation
[00:22:17] here is terrible. We've suffered two months starving and sick. "I don't know if this
[00:22:21] is worth it anymore. I can't go home
[00:22:24] empty-handed. I'll keep trying until the end, even if I die
[00:22:28] trying before returning to Morocco. Celta has
[00:22:32] become the ground zero of a prolonged diplomatic deadlog as Morocco
[00:22:35] holds elections, thousands of migrants remain stranded here where residents
[00:22:39] live under the persistent threat of new border assault. Without a
[00:22:43] structural solutions from Madrid. This enclave remains a humanitarian
[00:22:47] pressure cooker, defined by..."

[00:23:02] now.

[00:24:55] close the morning over you, but
[00:24:59] I still sing to
[00:25:01] you,
[00:25:06] my little morning, sleep, my
[00:25:10] little light, I'll send you off to
[00:25:14] school again inside my
[00:25:17] heart tonight.
[00:25:27] Hush, my
[00:25:29] little
[00:25:31] light,
[00:25:48] 20 days, that was all the time.
[00:25:54] Iran a time when the country was already at war, but war was
[00:25:58] never supposed to define his life, he was supposed to grow up, sleep
[00:26:02] safely. in his mother's arms. Here his seven-year-old brother left and
[00:26:06] slowly discovered the world around him. Instead, his life
[00:26:09] lasted just 20 days. During a US- Israeli air strike on
[00:26:13] Tehran, residential building in the Majidi area was
[00:26:17] strike. Muhammad Ali, his mother, his seven-year-old brother and several
[00:26:21] other family members were killed while visiting relatives at their
[00:26:25] home. The explosion was so powerful that the baby's
[00:26:28] body was thrown out the house. He was only 20 days.
[00:26:32] salt: he was not a soldier, he was not a
[00:26:36] politician, he carried no weapon and had no role in the conflict, he
[00:26:40] was simply baby. wars are often described through statistics:
[00:26:43] how many missiles were fired, how many buildings were destroyed, how many
[00:26:47] people were killed, because the true cost of war is not
[00:26:51] measured only by numbers, sometimes it is measured by
[00:26:55] silent cradle, by tiny piece of clothing that
[00:26:59] will never be worn, by room where a baby... these
[00:27:02] cries will never be heard again. that is why
[00:27:06] the story of Muhammad Ali is more than the story of one victim. it
[00:27:10] forces simple question. when war reaches
[00:27:14] baby's room, what happens to our ideas of security,
[00:27:17] humanity and the value of human life. for many Iranians, muhammad
[00:27:21] ali's name carries even deeper micens and suffering
[00:27:25] during the tragedy of karbala. centuries separate Aliasgar from
[00:27:29] Mohammad Ali, different wars, different time. times in
[00:27:33] different places, but the image is painfully familiar.
[00:27:37] defenceless child caught in violence, he did not choose
[00:27:41] and could never understand. for many Iranians, muhammad ali became
[00:27:45] modern reminder of that same innocence, a child who had not
[00:27:48] even had the chance
[00:27:50] to discover what life was before war took it away. he was
[00:27:54] born into war and he died in it. his entire life lasted
[00:27:57] 20 days. that is why
