[00:03:41] control how far it spreads or determine how it
[00:03:45] ends. Meanwhile, Brigador General Abdul Fazzel Shakrachi, a
[00:03:49] senior spokesperson for Iranian Armed Forces, says
[00:03:53] recent insults by US officials targeting Iran
[00:03:56] civilization and history would only strengthen the nation.
[00:04:00] resolve, he said Iran's hammed forces are more capable

[00:04:08] a bihmon, deputy commander
[00:04:09] of the navy said Iran has dealt heavy blows to the US

[00:04:21] in a
[00:04:21] of way that would push the enemy even further way from Iranian

[00:04:30] journalist Farazan Shuran says US threats against
[00:04:34] of Iran will
[00:04:35] a only strengthen the nation's resolve to continue
[00:04:41] of of resistance. Marco Robio's remarks and
[00:04:45] claims uh comes basically from the colonial
[00:04:49] mindset
[00:04:50] of the officials in the United States and Washington and that that
[00:04:54] is exactly what uh two major generals were uh
[00:04:58] of of of course of pointing at.
[00:05:02] of and again let's remind our viewers that how time and again
[00:05:03] of uh the US officials uh has have basically
[00:05:07] called the Iranian nations terrorists, and of course uh
[00:05:10] during uh the uh 40 days of war and of course the previous war, the
[00:05:14] 12-day war, they were of course
[00:05:18] threatening Iran's civilization, and of course this
[00:05:22] is why the martur leader the Islamic Revolution Ali Khamenei would
[00:05:26] say that the problem that the United States has with Iran and
[00:05:30] the Iranian nation is not merely about its politics or its
[00:05:34] government or as with Iran is Iran
[00:05:37] itself, as with Iran is Iran itself, and
[00:05:41] it's... basically the issue is is an
[00:05:44] existential issue and of course as we had of course in the
[00:05:48] news what major general was mentioning
[00:05:52] that those rhetorics and trying to basically feeling
[00:05:56] the clash of civilizations basically
[00:06:00] make the Iranian nations resolve even stronger
[00:06:04] and make them even more eager to stand against their
[00:06:08] atrocities and stand against the repression and of
[00:06:11] course uh to say that we are victorious because we have
[00:06:15] thousands of years of civilization again, history
[00:06:19] and we will not bow down to any kind of
[00:06:22] uh pressure. well the
[00:06:26] Iranian ambassador to the Vatican is urged pope Leo the
[00:06:29] 14 to speak out against US sanctions that disrupt
[00:06:33] ordinary people's access to medical care, education

[00:06:58] 14th. He called on the Pontif to help prevent
[00:07:01] humanitarian consequences caused by Washington's new sanctions
[00:07:05] against Tehran. The letter followed the US decision last
[00:07:09] month to impose new sanctions on 27 Iran. and
[00:07:12] airlines, Washington also threatened sanctions
[00:07:16] any airport and company across the world that would
[00:07:20] provide services to the Iranian airlines, as you know the
[00:07:24] ordinary people to have medicine to
[00:07:27] go hospital, students you know
[00:07:31] who are studying abroad wants to go
[00:07:35] back home to visit their
[00:07:38] family, parents, I think
[00:07:41] that... is
[00:07:43] you know inhuman actions is not
[00:07:46] acceptable, i mention
[00:07:48] to the

[00:07:54] journalists, ambassador Mcteri explained that this new round of
[00:07:58] sanctions are in breach of international law and humanitarian
[00:08:02] norms. this is why the diplomat said he has appealed
[00:08:06] to the pope's moral and diplomatic authority to defend
[00:08:09] vulnerable people affected by Washington's
[00:08:20] understand that the war continues and that it continues to affect
[00:08:24] the lives of Iranians who are
[00:08:26] not able to take a plane to meet their families, to see their sick
[00:08:30] relatives, for the students to return home to see their
[00:08:33] parents. the war continues, even if there is no
[00:08:36] longer news of bombings on the ground and on Iranian territory, trump
[00:08:40] is scraping the bottom the barrel. with this new round of
[00:08:43] sanctions. the US wants to
[00:08:47] rule the world by internationalizing their internal laws, and
[00:08:51] this is not acceptable, not only when we discuss what is going on in
[00:08:55] Iran or in west Asia, but also when we refer to what's
[00:08:59] happening here in Italy. during the meeting with
[00:09:02] journalists, the Iranian ambassador showed photos of
[00:09:06] significant damage caused by US Israely attacks to
[00:09:10] several UNESCO world heritage son. as well as
[00:09:13] prominent religious and cultural landmarks in his

[00:09:27] urged the pontif to condemn US president Donald
[00:09:30] Trump's threats to assassinate the then leader the
[00:09:34] Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,
[00:09:38] a threat that has tragically become a reality.

[00:10:30] and strained supply chains a testing energy systems
[00:10:34] worldwide. All prices have climbed to near two week high
[00:10:38] ameid continued retaliation operation by Yemen
[00:10:42] on Saudi Arabia and Iran's targeting of tankers violating
[00:10:46] its designated safe transit route and the street of
[00:10:49] hormos. Development contradict Donald Trump's repeated claims
[00:10:53] that the strategic waterway. is
[00:10:55] open
[00:11:01] and piece of breaking news, you see there is the Iranian foreign ministry
[00:11:04] condemming the UK resort to absort plotting to
[00:11:08] evade responsibility for its role in the US iriness aggression against
[00:11:12] Iran, just a statement coming from the Iranian foreign minister will
[00:11:16] be bringing you more in our later bulletin. At
[00:11:20] least 97 people have been killed since Saudi Arabia launched
[00:11:23] its aggression against. Yemen early last month, that is
[00:11:27] according to Yemen's health ministry. It says scores more have been
[00:11:31] wounded with women and children making up most the
[00:11:34] casualties. Press TV's heartchim and see has
[00:11:37] report from
[00:11:38] senner.
[00:11:43] Behind the air strikes and distraction lies a mount
[00:11:47] exfillen stole with lives lost families displaced and lifels
[00:11:51] destroyed. Yemanise health ministry says around one. that
[00:11:55] people have been killed since the latest wave of Saudi attacks began on September
[00:11:59] 3. The Saudi enemy
[00:12:02] continues to target civilian infrastructure and property following
[00:12:06] the escalation that began on September 3. The reported toll has
[00:12:10] risen to 304 casualties, including 97
[00:12:14] fatalities. Women and children account for 60% the
[00:12:18] casualties. The attacks continue to this day. In the latest
[00:12:22] incidents, one woman was killed and two others were in.
[00:12:56] the yemen people, but what this regime fails to understand is that the more it intensifies
[00:13:00] its attacks, the more determined yemenis become to confront
[00:13:03] it. residents in the affected
[00:13:07] neighborhood say the strikes have only dibben their anger,
[00:13:11] they say the attacks will only strengthen their determination to
[00:13:14] resist. the
[00:13:18] saudi Israel enemy targeted residential neighborhood in the show area
[00:13:22] because it has no military objectives to pursue. Instead, it
[00:13:25] targets children, women, and civilians. If they consider
[00:13:29] themselves fighters, let them face us on the battlefield, but our response
[00:13:33] will be severe for these crimes. The
[00:13:37] health ministry's figures offer only a glimpse the human toll the attacks
[00:13:41] on Yemen, raising further question about the international response
[00:13:45] that comes as the United Nation and the wider international community
[00:13:49] face growing criticism over their handling the ongoing
[00:13:53] crisis. These are the targets of
[00:13:56] Saul strikes in yeman, residential neighborhoods, civilian facilities and
[00:14:00] innocent civilians including women and children. Day after day, the
[00:14:04] attacks abrise daily life and leave people per the
[00:14:07] consequences. Bris
[00:14:10] tv,
[00:14:15] the German economy isn't crisis mood incorporate investment
[00:14:19] is shrinking while the state is spending ever increasing amounts of
[00:14:23] money. It has thus become dominant driver of economic
[00:14:27] activities, analysts warned many of Germany's traditional
[00:14:30] companies and manufacturers are on the brink of collapse. or
[00:14:34] correspondent detail chazar report from
[00:14:36] Berlin.
[00:14:42] Inflation is rising while Germany's economy is in deep recession

[00:14:53] Germany for his party. his pall numbers are in freefall, to bring
[00:14:57] rising petrol prices under control, the government adopted relief
[00:15:01] package, including a temporary fuel discount and a planned fuel
[00:15:05] price cap, until the end the year petrol tax will be
[00:15:08] reduced by 14 cents per
[00:15:10] liter. we will provide relief to
[00:15:13] citizens. we are putting
[00:15:15] a stop to the ripoffs, including those by oil companies and are now ensuring
[00:15:19] that fuel prices are lowered quickly. citizens will soon notice that filling up their tanks is
[00:15:23] cheaper thanks to reduced energy taxes. It is also important
[00:15:26] to me that a price cap is implemented, we will intervene in the market, specifically where we
[00:15:30] see companies making profits and benefiting from the crisis. many observers argue that
[00:15:34] petrol price, controls and tax wavers offer.
[00:16:37] have been possible without Germany's support. The US Airbase at Ramstein is an
[00:16:41] example of this. While social security, education and health are being cut because of
[00:16:45] economic problems, Germany plants to invest 750 billion euros
[00:16:49] earmarked for defense in the next four years. The burden of
[00:16:52] this crisis is being unloaded on the working class overall, on the one hand, there
[00:16:56] are massive massive job cuts on the one hand, the spending

[00:19:15] increasingly
[00:19:16] difficult.
[00:19:20] And still in Gaza Ames severe water shortages in widespread
[00:19:24] destruction of essential infrastructure. Across

[00:23:50] expected,
[00:23:57] that does it from this world news bulletin on press tv, thank you so much for staying with
[00:24:01] us,
[00:24:01] goodbye.
[00:24:22] July 31st, 2026, nighttime straight of
[00:24:26] Hormus, southern Iran. The United States launched a heavy
[00:24:30] wave of strikes against command centers, radars,
[00:24:34] surveillance systems and air defense positions across southern
[00:24:37] Iran, intended to make the skies over southern Iran safer for
[00:24:41] American aircraft, but just hours later, something
[00:24:44] unexpected happened. An American
[00:24:48] MQ9 Reaper was... shot down over the straight of
[00:24:51] hormos. The MQ9 is no ordinary
[00:24:55] drone. It is one of America's primary platforms for intelligence,
[00:24:58] surveillance, reconnaissance, and precision strikes, capable of remaining
[00:25:02] airborn for more than a full day while carrying an advanced suite of
[00:25:06] sensors and weapons, and this was not the first reaper lost.
[00:25:10] Since the beginning the war, Iran has taken around 50 MQ9
[00:25:14] Reapers out of operation, roughly one quarter the entire US
[00:25:18] Reaper fleet. But the real story. was only beginning, shortly
[00:25:21] afterward, an F-35 entered the picture, one the world's most
[00:25:25] advanced combat aircraft, designed specifically to penetrate
[00:25:29] sophisticated air defense networks, but stealth does not mean
[00:25:32] invisible. one radar may detect only faint
[00:25:36] signature, infrared sensor may pick up the heat from its engines,
[00:25:40] another system may detect its electronic emissions, and when the
[00:25:43] information from all these systems is air picture the target begins to
[00:25:47] emerge, clear picture the target begins to... emerge. That same
[00:25:51] night, the tracking the F-35 reached the level of a weapon's
[00:25:55] quality lock, a warning the pilot could not ignore. The
[00:25:58] F-35 did not continue its mission and quickly left the area.
[00:26:02] And perhaps that is the most important part the story. Air defense
[00:26:06] success does not always mean shooting an aircraft down.
[00:26:09] Sometimes
[00:26:10] it is enough to stop an aircraft designed to penetrate hostile
[00:26:13] airspace from completing its mission. And now, for the United
[00:26:17] States, the issue is no longer simply the loss of an MQ9
[00:26:21] or the retreat of an F35. The bigger question is, how could a
