[00:00:05] of Iran security chief tells Press TV that the U.S. response to Tehran's
[00:00:09] conditions for reopening this rator for moves is inadequate and
[00:00:13] contains ambiguities that must be
[00:00:16] cleared. The IRGC navy warns all vessels
[00:00:19] not to turn off their navigation systems during Hurmus transit
[00:00:23] saying all ships doing this will be considered hostile and
[00:00:27] targeted and The Yemini armed forces
[00:00:31] spokesman says a major wave of long-range missile and drone
[00:00:34] strikes has targeted key airports and energy infrastructure
[00:00:38] across Saudi
[00:00:39] Arabia.
[00:00:55] Hello everyone, you're watching Press TV live from the studios
[00:00:59] in. Thank you for joining
[00:01:01] us. Now an exclusive interview
[00:01:05] with Press TV, Iran's
[00:01:06] of top security official says
[00:01:08] of Washington's response to Tehran's
[00:01:10] in seven conditions
[00:01:11] in a proposal to reopen the strategic straight for moves is
[00:01:14] inadequate. Major General Mosen Razi said the United States
[00:01:18] must first clarify those issues that remain ambiguous
[00:01:22] for
[00:01:22] Iran.
[00:01:27] Over the past two months, the Americans made proposals. to us through three
[00:01:30] channels, Pakistan, Qatar, and even Iraq, and asked
[00:01:34] us to give them our own proposals. We announced seven conditions to the
[00:01:38] of Americans. If you do not act on these conditions, neither will
[00:01:41] the straight of Hormus be opened to you, nor will there be any
[00:01:44] negotiations. The Americans have now given
[00:01:47] a response. In their response, they have accepted some of our
[00:01:50] conditions, and there are some ambiguities. Therefore, the Americans
[00:01:54] have responded to us. We are not in the process of responding to the
[00:01:58] Americans. The Americans have... responded to us and we consider their
[00:02:02] response
[00:02:02] insufficient. General
[00:02:06] Razi added that the Americans must remove those parts that are
[00:02:10] considered ambiguous by Iran and Tehran is waiting to see whether they can
[00:02:14] remove those ambiguities before heading to the next stages.
[00:02:18] Elsewhere in his interview, Razali said, the US has suffered defeat
[00:02:21] after defeat against Ivan, and that's why Washington has turned
[00:02:25] to economic war against the
[00:02:27] country.
[00:02:33] The enemy
[00:02:33] of suffered major defeat in
[00:02:35] a the 12-day war and then again in the 40-day war, they resorted to
[00:02:38] naval blockade, but that
[00:02:40] of led them nowhere, and recently, they launched economic isolation
[00:02:44] plan, they faced defeat in
[00:02:45] of almost every single campaign they launched, but we stayed put pursuing our
[00:02:49] plans and neutralized all those campaigns with accurate planning and
[00:02:53] calculations.
[00:03:00] Now the general said the US has failed even to end this war of
[00:03:04] aggression, he stressed that to that the option to end the aggression
[00:03:08] is in the hands of Iran and Iranians and will not stop
[00:03:11] their resistance
[00:03:13] of until they get what is rightfully theirs. General Razay
[00:03:17] added that the US is the root cause
[00:03:19] of the problem concerning the straight of Hurmus. The general said
[00:03:22] Iran seeks management
[00:03:24] of the straight to ensure regional security, especially in the
[00:03:27] Persian Gulf. He
[00:03:29] of rejected... Washington's claim that
[00:03:31] it is transporting major amounts of oil through the key waterway.
[00:03:35] Razi said the US is only using smugglers to
[00:03:38] transport negligible amounts of oil while the straight
[00:03:41] remains
[00:03:42] closed.
[00:03:48] The Yemani arm forces spokesman says a major wave of long-range missile
[00:03:52] and drone strikes has targeted key airports and energy
[00:03:55] infrastructure across Saudi
[00:03:57] Arabia.
[00:04:01] The
[00:04:01] in armed forces carried out for qualitative operations in the past 24 hours
[00:04:05] using ballistic and cruise missiles and drones. The first
[00:04:09] operation targeted in three phases King Khalid International Airport in
[00:04:13] Riad, resulting in the disruption of air traffic and the complete closure
[00:04:17] of the airport. The second operation targeted the Sugar Dam
[00:04:20] gas facility belonging to Arenko in the eastern province and resulted in
[00:04:24] large fires breaking out at the targeted site.
[00:04:28] The third operation targeted. the arenko tanajib oil refinery in the eastern
[00:04:32] province and resulted in ignition in it. The fourth
[00:04:36] operation targeted King Ford International Airport in
[00:04:39] in Daman.
[00:04:43] Brigadier general Yahya Sariy added that missiles and two
[00:04:47] drones against Saudi missiles and two
[00:04:49] of drones against Saudi back troops in Bable Mandeb region. He said the attacks
[00:04:53] all in response to over 124 Saudi-backed air
[00:04:57] strikes across Yemen in 24 hours. Yahya
[00:05:00] Sari reiterated the warning against using Saudi
[00:05:04] airports airports except those in Mecca and Medina
[00:05:07] declaring them potential targets. He said operations would
[00:05:11] continue to esc. late under the principle of escalation for
[00:05:14] escalation and blockade for blockade until Saudi military
[00:05:18] aggression and the siege are brought to an
[00:05:20] end.
[00:05:29] This is while military and strategic analyst Ali ham believes Saudi
[00:05:33] Arabia is losing the war in Yemen and is now begging other countries
[00:05:37] for help. Let's
[00:05:38] see listen. The
[00:05:42] Saudis. are losing the strategic war, why? because the
[00:05:45] yemanies are not in need of water passes or to
[00:05:49] pass through babel or somewhere
[00:05:52] else. they are, they they are very
[00:05:56] close to to africa, they are at the edge of
[00:06:00] oman sea, at the shore of oman sea, red
[00:06:04] sea, and they are very close to oman sea, also the Arabian
[00:06:08] sea, Saudi Arabia is
[00:06:11] ensure. strategy, luck of strategy
[00:06:15] to go into war against Yemen for
[00:06:19] exper,
[00:06:20] you know, they experienced such war for eight years
[00:06:23] with huge allies and more
[00:06:26] more effective and strongest allies
[00:06:30] ever for eight years before, and they did not
[00:06:34] succeed, now they are trying with some mercenaries, they are trying to
[00:06:38] help for the triple agreements in Mecca from
[00:06:41] Turkey and
[00:06:42] the Pakistan, the
[00:06:44] you know it gets to Muhammad bin Salman to ask the
[00:06:48] support of Al-Julani to send some mercenaries to al
[00:06:52] Yeman to fight on behalf of Saudi Arabia,
[00:06:56] so we see that Saudi Arabia for such
[00:07:00] escalation, it's exactly remind us
[00:07:03] of what happened during Yemen
[00:07:06] supporting Gaza, saying escalation
[00:07:10] against escalation. uh airport against
[00:07:14] airport and this is exactly what happened and it's
[00:07:17] all still the allied the resistance
[00:07:21] allied for the benefits of Palestine against
[00:07:25] the abstin allies for the benefits
[00:07:29] of
[00:07:29] Israel.
[00:07:48] Hello everyone and welcome back to the news review section we we delf deeper
[00:07:52] into one the day's top stories so stay with
[00:07:55] us. Now the commander the Islamic Revolution
[00:07:59] Gaz Course Navy has warned all vessels transiting through the straight of
[00:08:03] Furmus not to shut down their navigation and automatic
[00:08:06] identification systems. Reiradmiral Ali asmai
[00:08:10] said in his message that all ships that turn off their
[00:08:13] navigation and identification systems in the straight of hormoz will
[00:08:17] be identified as hostile and will be dealt with
[00:08:21] severely and decisively. his warning came
[00:08:25] after the IRGC announced that violating oil super tanker has
[00:08:29] caught fire after striking naval mine in the straight of moves while
[00:08:33] trying to cross the straight through an unauthorized route. the
[00:08:36] IRGC navy said the violating vessels had turned off all
[00:08:40] identification and navigation. systems before attempting to pass
[00:08:44] through unauthorized waters, it added that this was the third
[00:08:48] violating tanker in two days to strike naval mines and catch
[00:08:51] fire while attempting illegal hurmus transit. the
[00:08:55] IRGC navy reiterated that any vessel trying to cross the strategic
[00:08:59] waterway after disabling is navigation systems will be considered
[00:09:03] hostile target and dealt with
[00:09:05] accordingly. now to get
[00:09:09] more insight we have our duel from London Miss Sakina
[00:09:13] Dato, journalist, author and producer, and also Mr. Said
[00:09:16] Morson Abbas, uh, political commentator, also from
[00:09:20] London. Uh, Mr. Abbas and Miss Datu, thank you for being with us once
[00:09:24] again, uh, Miss Datu, let's begin with you and the Islamic
[00:09:28] Revolution Gaz Core navy, warning all ships and vessels
[00:09:32] transiting through the straight of almos, not to shut down the
[00:09:35] navigation, shut down, their navigation and their
[00:09:38] identification system, full colo demand, many analysts are saying it is.
[00:09:42] because would the US allow the same thing to happen in their
[00:09:46] waters? first
[00:09:49] of all that the state of homos is fully in
[00:09:53] control of Iran. I mean, this just first of all
[00:09:57] tells us that when we hear constantly Trump saying that you know he
[00:10:01] has control the straight of hormos, then how come these oil tankers are
[00:10:04] getting hit, so this in itself is testament, and of course it
[00:10:08] is legitimate, Iran has every right to control. the
[00:10:12] waters around its own area and these are you know he they have
[00:10:16] control and they also have not completely stopped ships
[00:10:20] from passing
[00:10:21] you know there are conditions however because for far too long 'the
[00:10:25] state of hormos used to be open to everybody and it was a
[00:10:29] war on Iran that has brought this upon the world itself and
[00:10:32] upon the global economy because Iran was attacked and therefore
[00:10:36] you know closing state of hormos or managing it is
[00:10:40] in the interest is it's
[00:10:43] a vital security issue for Iran in this stage so
[00:10:47] absolutely who can blame Iran for wanting to make sure that
[00:10:51] they have the control over the straight and also these ships'.
[00:10:55] the very fact that they turn off all navigation is in itself
[00:10:59] indication that they are aware that they are doing something illegal, otherwise you know
[00:11:03] if they really had that kind of a courage to defy then why do they
[00:11:07] have to turn you know the navigations off and
[00:11:11] so i think you know the the reality is that things are getting very very
[00:11:15] tough for the US, we have seen them now coming to this
[00:11:19] deal with Russia to get some oil out you know from from
[00:11:22] Russia, all these signifies the fact... that they are desperate and
[00:11:26] that despite Trump constantly saying
[00:11:28] you know he had the control, he doesn't have the control the control, he doesn't
[00:11:32] have the control the straight of homos, there is no cont watching what
[00:11:36] the yemenis,
[00:11:37] what ansarulah is doing in Saudi Arabia,
[00:11:40] you know where that oil is not coming through, and it seems
[00:11:44] like also war is imminent because you can see that there are movements
[00:11:48] and you know there is a possible
[00:11:51] war on Iran again which makes it even more important
[00:11:55] for Iran to make sure that it's controlling
[00:11:58] the the straight of hormos, that's right, miss to say that
[00:12:02] boss, obviously your thoughts on the illegal route that the US has
[00:12:06] devised or trying to devise and trump forcing the ships to
[00:12:09] cross uh those waters knowing that it's not safe because Iran
[00:12:13] saying there are minds there and it's going to explode simple
[00:12:17] uh and he's just bullying everyone enemies or even
[00:12:20] their allies the first.
[00:12:25] crazy think that these are not military vessels and they're
[00:12:29] being encouraged and and provoked
[00:12:33] to take cargo through territory, area which
[00:12:37] belongs to the maritime
[00:12:41] waters of Iran and of course on, and
[00:12:45] time and time again has given fair
[00:12:46] warning
[00:12:50] areas of those which are not.
[00:12:55] nated safe and we
[00:12:56] are not responsible and already today, i think we've had report
[00:13:00] that ship actually hit a
[00:13:04] mind or those
[00:13:07] illegals
[00:13:08] and
[00:13:19] so this is very reckless in terms of
[00:13:23] those are trying to get
[00:13:25] his ship to come out and Iran continues to give those warnings, the
[00:13:29] daily commercial vessel trans, they have collapsed,
[00:13:33] mean
[00:13:33] today,
[00:13:37] that's because the surgeon inactual attacks which Iran has also
[00:13:41] had to uh do to basically enforce the rules. now the
[00:13:45] thing you
[00:13:46] want to understand is maritime law, first of all
[00:13:49] Iran is not to the the
[00:13:53] rules them.
[00:13:55] to of that they're being not actually party for any law that they would
[00:13:58] be raping, secondly, those territorial waters that they're very
[00:14:02] narrow is like 45 kilometers, now at
[00:14:06] that point as to whether
[00:14:09] they are omani waters
[00:14:11] or whether they're Iranian waters, so there is another
[00:14:15] huge iran can lay claim
[00:14:18] to all the their territory, so they within their rights,
[00:14:22] their legal rights, say what goes on here is something we need
[00:14:26] to do and the other factor which also negate any kind
[00:14:29] of uh moaning and growing by uh the
[00:14:33] the so-called angist imperialist
[00:14:37] powers is that uh you know it's a war who
[00:14:41] started the war again it's the anglo-zinist empire that started the
[00:14:44] war and in wartime these kind of maritime rules
[00:14:48] and regulations they don't operate I mean how is
[00:14:52] it on earth is it a reality that Iran has to abide by first of
[00:14:56] all maritime rules that it's never signed up to and then top of that it
[00:15:00] it has aggressive forces which are trying to use that oil a
[00:15:04] war against it, why why should why should they be obligated
[00:15:07] to allow any shipping to go through there? now the shipping that is
[00:15:11] going to of
[00:15:12] course,
[00:15:22] issues going on there, so the ships with... Iran is getting out, which the
[00:15:26] American Navy can't stop, uh, are definitely going
[00:15:30] to be shipping is going to
[00:15:32] the to to south Asia and perhaps Europe, but mainly it South Asia, and
[00:15:36] that that's a... something that iran in terms of it's trading
[00:15:39] oil will do and anybody else that wants to take oil out
[00:15:43] there or fertilizers they if they
[00:15:47] go through the procedures that Iran is set then they will be
[00:15:50] allowed
[00:15:51] to to take that's
[00:15:54] right sanction
[00:15:58] whatever you want to call
[00:15:59] it in terms
[00:16:02] of
[00:16:04] all the sanctions has placed placed up for. so
[00:16:08] another reason that Iran will be absolutely justified,
[00:16:11] well
[00:16:15] situation,
[00:16:20] that's right, that's right, Mr. Abbass, said some
[00:16:24] interesting points as well, but I want to ask Miss that too about the cost of all of this,
[00:16:28] would it have been cheaper just pay your a small fee for the
[00:16:32] insurance and for the security, and I'm forgetting that the world has lost millions
[00:16:36] of barrels already. which will not come back again,
[00:16:40] this isn't about the course really, it is about you know the his
[00:16:43] desire to not just control, but also to refuse
[00:16:47] that he has lost this war, mean if they were to agree to
[00:16:51] pay Iran, it's pretty obvious that they have lost the war, even though to be honest, I
[00:16:55] mean the whole world does realize that Trump has lost this war, but
[00:16:59] again this is very much in character of
[00:17:03] Trump, he's been asking the UK for example,
[00:17:06] that the straight
[00:17:06] of humans is... open go get your oil from there, he is
[00:17:09] forcing all these ships whose insurance cost of
[00:17:13] trying to you know when when they get blown up then the insurance goes very
[00:17:17] very high, but he is pushing them to keep on trying and this is
[00:17:21] just you know in his way of trying to ensure that
[00:17:25] he makes it look like he hasn't lost this war, there's midterm elections
[00:17:29] coming up of course and you know the all indications, all
[00:17:32] polls show that he is losing in those
[00:17:35] elections, so the... "this is this is something that you can
[00:17:39] expect from Trump, he is not ready under any circumstances to
[00:17:43] accept that they have lost, I mean if they had any sense at all and they
[00:17:47] understood the issues such as you know having to pay for
[00:17:50] safe passages then first of all they would not be killing people anymore,
[00:17:54] they would have abided by the mou which he himself has
[00:17:58] signed, I mean it is so it's actually beggers
[00:18:02] belief that a president of a belief that a president of a
[00:18:05] country like the US"
[00:18:07] to put his refuses today to honor any part of it, so none
[00:18:11] these would be happening, the state of chromos, forget about paying, it would
[00:18:15] just be open if there was a memorandum of understanding in place, the
[00:18:19] reality is that you know trump and the zionist entity,
[00:18:23] they are not interesting kind of coming to kind
[00:18:26] of coming to solution or anything, because they depend on
[00:18:30] wars for their own survival and also even though the world
[00:18:34] economy you know is in the doll trums. people are
[00:18:38] suffering everywhere, they themselves are enreaching themselves, so
[00:18:41] he and his cronies are actually there is lot of other analys
[00:18:45] who are also saying that this probably is something that they are doing
[00:18:49] purposely because they are benefiting from it purpose by
[00:18:52] themselves, so i think you know trump is narcissist
[00:18:56] and he only thinks about him and you know what
[00:19:00] benefits him, he doesn't really care about anyone's life or any
[00:19:04] economy going to
[00:19:05] you know bunkers, that's right? That's right, that's that's a lot of
[00:19:09] ego. Mr. Said Abbass, uh,
[00:19:11] one minute if you can, I want you
[00:19:14] to see get your opinion on this comment, uh,
[00:19:18] referring to Trump, you gambled, you lost, take it on the chin, why
[00:19:22] should the world pay for your foolish
[00:19:23] mistake?
[00:19:27] It's - more complicated than just I believe,
[00:19:31] simply case of Trump continuing to do what he's doing, it's almost as
[00:19:35] if he wants to collapse the global economy. because there's no
[00:19:38] sense anything that these forces are doing, there was no sense in
[00:19:42] Saudi Arabia risking its ships and it's oil
[00:19:46] coming out from the the last port that it had
[00:19:49] available, yet they did it, and of course whatever the Saudis do, the
[00:19:53] Americans know perfectly well what they're doing, they're right involved with all of
[00:19:57] that, and the same goes here in the hormes, everything that the US is doing is basically
[00:20:01] jeopadizing the global economy, it's also
[00:20:04] jeopadizing American um...
[00:20:08] domestic situation, his his elections are coming up, he's
[00:20:12] been begging, i think iran to give some kind of consession so
[00:20:16] that he can go back to these mid-terms and and claim some kind of victory, but
[00:20:20] Iran is very very hard for now, they said that the
[00:20:23] almost is a strategic red line, and broadening that range
[00:20:27] of targets in the gulf is actually what they intent
[00:20:31] on doing, and any tanker has violating the Iranian groups in the
[00:20:35] straight and home was will face.
[00:20:50] not just being the straight and almost, but now they're talking about the wider
[00:20:54] area i assume
[00:20:54] that means the Arabian se and further into the Indian
[00:20:58] Ocean. Who knows how far Iran is willing to say, actually
[00:21:02] any chicken attempts to try to get out or come in without our
[00:21:06] permission no matter how far it
[00:21:07] is is their game and of course not only that the uh
[00:21:11] US warships no matter how far they go, they're still within the
[00:21:15] range potentially of Iranian hypersonic missiles
[00:21:19] and other. specific
[00:21:21] missile
[00:21:23] uh that that can hit ships and although they withdrawn a
[00:21:27] thous kilometers or so, there's no guarantee that isn't
[00:21:31] able to leach them and they are obviously running scared if they were that
[00:21:34] dominantly
[00:21:39] then they would be there
[00:21:43] in the
[00:21:43] holes
[00:21:48] rather uh getting these vessels. to sneak through by
[00:21:52] turning off their radars and now is calling time on that thing,
[00:21:55] anybody does that doesn't matter civil vessel or this is the time
[00:21:59] of war, we're a state of war and we're absolutely entitled to
[00:22:03] stop our enemies getting supplies that they need in
[00:22:07] order to attack - that's right said that boss and how can you
[00:22:10] expect concessions when you threaten to erase an entire
[00:22:14] civilization uh a civilization 10 times older than yours
[00:22:17] so uh it's not logical uh Thank you, our dual from London, Miss
[00:22:21] Sakina Datu, as always, journalist, author and producer, and also miss,

[00:23:30] far in the Yemeni missile strikes. We will have the updates as
[00:23:34] we go along. Now US President Donald Trump says Ukraine and Russia have
[00:23:38] agreed to immediate energy cease fire. Trump did not provide any
[00:23:42] more details about the deal. He edged both sides to refrain from
[00:23:45] violating the agreement. Following Trump's remarks Ukrainian president.
[00:23:50] Zelinski said he was surprised about the announcement, describing it
[00:23:54] as unheard news, but said he would agree
[00:23:57] to it if his Russian counterpart did the same.
[00:24:01] Russian president Vladimir Putin has yet to make a comment. The deal
[00:24:05] comes a day after Trump said Moscow agreed to release
[00:24:08] 300 thousand tons of diesel immediately to the American and
[00:24:12] global marketplace. However, analys say the latest
[00:24:16] estimates suggest the US could consume that amount of.
[00:24:20] diesel in less than 13 hours raising questions about whether the
[00:24:24] announcement is aimed more at influencing the upcoming mid-term
[00:24:27] elections than addressing the country's fuel
[00:24:30] needs.
