[00:01:04] of of Hello and welcome everybody, it's 9:30 am here in the Iranian capital [00:01:08] Tehran, this is Press TV's world news. Our top story for this half [00:01:12] hour, the Islamic Revolution Guards Core says two oil [00:01:15] tankers trying to cross the hormo straight via an illegal route [00:01:19] have exploded after striking naval mines. According to the IRGC Navy [00:01:23] statement, one [00:01:24] of the vessels [00:01:24] of was a super tanker which caught fire [00:01:28] of following powerful explosion. as it was transiting the hormo straight through an [00:01:32] unauthorized [00:01:33] of route. the IRGC added that both tankers uh had turned off their [00:01:37] navigation and automatic identification systems. they were attempting to [00:01:41] cross a strategic waterway secretly through an illegal route with [00:01:45] the support [00:01:46] of the terrorist American army, but were stopped in place following the [00:01:50] incident. Iran has [00:01:51] of frequently warned all vessels and oil tankers against attempting illegal transit [00:01:55] routes through the straight of hormos, advising them not to rely on the US [00:01:59] Army. support, it has also announced time and again that [00:02:03] only the [00:02:03] of roots approved by Iranian forces are safe for hormos [00:02:09] of transit. [00:02:14] author and west Asia expert s shas says Iran's ability to [00:02:18] control the straight of hormos proves that it will not allow the US to [00:02:21] impose its hegemony over any part [00:02:24] of the Persian Gulf or West [00:02:26] Asia. [00:02:31] the the the the sinking [00:02:34] of the two core tankers yesterday 15 other [00:02:38] tankers days before that in the strate of hormos [00:02:42] whether by mines or other [00:02:46] missiles or or other kind of [00:02:50] explosions [00:02:51] of confirm that Iran will not allow the United States of America to [00:02:54] impose its hegemony [00:02:56] of over the single inch [00:02:58] of the west ages. not just the gulf or the strate [00:03:02] of hormos, that confirms [00:03:05] of Iran's [00:03:07] of force are in control, total control [00:03:08] of the straight of hormos, all the statements that Trump were [00:03:13] of issuing about the [00:03:14] of return of navigation and the straight [00:03:16] of of of [00:03:17] of hormos of to its normal states as before their [00:03:21] criminal war on Iran and the [00:03:25] volume he is stating [00:03:26] of all of the time that [00:03:28] is they carried by super tankers exceed 20 million barrels [00:03:32] per day, that's all prove lies and it [00:03:35] Trump is always sending all [00:03:38] of these conflicting messages and [00:03:41] signals about the traffic of [00:03:45] of oil in the straight of [00:03:47] of hormos to play the [00:03:48] of markets or against diplomacy with Iran or [00:03:52] against intensifying the conflict with Iran [00:03:55] of since he and the zinist entity are [00:03:59] strategically [00:04:07] of of defeated. Iran's foreign in minister says negotiations a proposed two-day initiative concerning the straight of hormos are continuing through [00:04:10] ataty mediators, but final agreement hinges on Washington's [00:04:14] response, speaking about the recent talks in Doha. She stress that [00:04:18] final agreement hinges on whether the United States opts for rational [00:04:22] engagement rather than pursuing other courses of action. He added that while [00:04:26] Iran remains committed to diplomacy, its armed forces are fully prepared for all [00:04:30] scenarios under the proposed today [00:04:32] a initiative, the US must first meet [00:04:34] in a set of conditions on day one, including lifting [00:04:38] sanctions, reducing its military presence in the region and unfreezing Iranian [00:04:41] assets, Tehran would [00:04:44] rather than reopen shipping lanes [00:04:47] in on day [00:04:48] two. [00:04:53] Iran's new defense doctrines sparked widespread reactions on [00:04:57] social [00:04:57] a media following the directive [00:04:59] of the leader. Islamic revolution to respond to any US-Israeli aggression [00:05:02] without geographical limits. Meanwile users are [00:05:06] reacting to reports of US Army training exercises [00:05:09] involving the establishment of mass graves. American soldiers in the [00:05:13] event [00:05:14] of a future confrontation with [00:05:15] Iran. [00:05:55] All this could have been avoided and was predicted by analysts warning this [00:05:58] administration, not to follow Natanya whose war plans for Iran. [00:06:02] The next phase will be [00:06:03] catastrophic. [00:06:08] We're starting the war with no plausible path to success and no path to [00:06:11] exit. would be a malpractice the highest order and should definitely result [00:06:15] in an impeachment and removal from [00:06:17] office. [00:06:23] The US Army is training its soldiers to prepare for mass [00:06:27] burials as Donald Trump threatens renewed aggression on [00:06:31] Iran. The army is explicitly preparing for the possibility that [00:06:35] it will not have air superiority over Iran and will not [00:06:39] be able to evacuate troops, which makes war on... [00:06:42] Iran vastly different than Middle East wars the [00:06:46] past, where America always maintained air [00:06:49] superiority, large scale fatalities has now become a [00:06:52] credible possibility as the US enters what will likely [00:06:56] become the most devastating war the country has seen in [00:07:00] decades. [00:07:06] It's good that they're learning how to dig their own graves as they expect to die [00:07:10] massively in the illegal war they impose on. Iran [00:07:12] lions [00:07:18] for lamps, no point to this war, soldier should refuse to [00:07:21] serve. [00:07:30] International banking giant Goldman Sax says raised its [00:07:34] oil price forecast warning that Brent Crude could surge to [00:07:37] $140 a barrel in 2027 if the straight of hormos remains [00:07:41] closed. sack said prices could search to that level of [00:07:45] oil output across the Persian gulf remains 3.5 million barrels [00:07:49] per day below its 20-25 average. The warning [00:07:53] comes amid continued uncertainty over the US-Israeli war on Iran and the [00:07:57] impact on the global energy supplies. Since the aggression began [00:08:01] in February in Iran's subsequent closure the straight of hormos, oil [00:08:04] prices have climbed sharply. Before the closure, more than [00:08:08] fifth the world's oil and gas supplies passed through the strategic. [00:08:12] waterway, [00:08:20] families of Iranians killed during the 12-day war have taken their demands for [00:08:24] justice to accordroom in Tehran, the first public hearing has [00:08:27] opened uh at branch 55 of Tehron's court for international [00:08:31] affairs where 130 lawsuits are seeking compensation from the [00:08:35] United States and Israel 55 the cases concern victims [00:08:39] the Israeli attack on Even prison which Iranian authorities [00:09:12] attack on Evan Prison, we are representing the families of victims [00:09:16] the 12-day war a total of 130 [00:09:19] lawsuits, 55 of which specifically concern the [00:09:23] attack on Evan prison. The first public hearing [00:09:27] is taking place at branch 55 of Tehron's court for [00:09:30] International Affairs. According to authorities, [00:09:33] 71 people were killed in that [00:09:35] strike. Evin prison is a civilian [00:09:39] facility and targeting it with fighter jets. constitutes [00:09:43] violation of international law, particularly international [00:09:46] humanitarian law. such attacks amount to war crimes and [00:09:50] other serious violations of international law. today [00:09:53] the families are asking the court to examine the evidence and [00:09:57] determine [00:09:59] legal responsibility. my mother, my brothers [00:10:03] and sisters and i have been going through incredibly difficult time [00:10:07] emotionally. life without our father has been extremely hard, [00:10:11] our lives have changed for. پدر من خیلی [00:10:14] خیلی. [00:10:55] protected under international humanitarian law, deliberately targeting [00:10:59] them in violation of that protection constitutes a war [00:11:03] crime. Unfortunately, even the prison's medical center was [00:11:06] struck during the attack. That is why these legal proceedings are so [00:11:10] important. Some of our most experienced lawyers are handling this [00:11:14] case, and the court's eventual ruling could be a significant [00:11:17] step towards securing justice for the victims and their [00:11:21] families. The lawyers say the lawsuits are intended not only. [00:11:25] to secure compensation, but to establish legal record [00:11:29] the attacks and their consequences. For these [00:11:32] families, no court ruling can bring back their loved ones, but they hope [00:11:36] that these proceedings will open new avenues in their pursuit of [00:11:39] justice. Gisum Ahmadi press TV, [00:11:42] Tehran. The [00:11:46] Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has strongly condemned the Israeli massacre [00:11:50] of a group of police personnel in the Amawasi area the Gaza [00:11:54] Strip southern city. said in its statement that the attack which killed three [00:11:58] people including father and his child constitutes deliberate war [00:12:01] crime, it noted that by killing police personnel, Israel is trying to prevent [00:12:05] normal life and security in Gaza as an extension of its [00:12:09] genocidal war across the territory. hamas added that the attack also [00:12:13] represents a malicious um attempt [00:12:17] by Israel to obstruct restoration of stability to [00:12:21] Gaza and spread chaos across the war to... [00:12:25] strip, the movement stress that the international community [00:12:29] silence and failure to stop Israel's horrific crimes [00:12:32] encourage the regime and its war criminal prime [00:12:35] minister to continue killing people and destroy Gaza in [00:12:39] line with Tel Aviv's policy to force Palestinian people from their [00:12:42] land. [00:12:48] We earlier talk to journalist and political commentator boss, he [00:12:52] said Israel's actions in Gaza are justify. by [00:12:55] rabbinical endorsements of violence is Jewish supremacist views have [00:12:59] been openly expressed by the regime's criminal prime minister and [00:13:02] extremist [00:13:03] officials. [00:13:07] they have rubenical and religious sanctioning of [00:13:11] murder basically and they are [00:13:14] fundamentally sick, not just psychotic because that almost lets them [00:13:18] off the hook, they're willfully, willfully uh evil, [00:13:22] that's really the only way I can describe it, and I attach the word Jewish [00:13:25] supremacy to it as opposed to zionism, because [00:13:29] zionism isn't even something they necessarily push or plug anymore, [00:13:33] they are Jewish supremacist. Ben Gaver has said it, Netanyahu [00:13:36] said it, just about every one them, Galan, all them, they all [00:13:40] subscribe to a Jewish state which is hellbent on [00:13:43] ethnic cleansing and wiping out Palestinians by Hoko Crook. Can you [00:13:47] imagine during a truece during a [00:13:50] ceasefire, this entity has managed to [00:13:54] injure. these 5 to 300 [00:13:57] 5,200 uh palestinians, they've [00:14:00] killed reportedly 1,80, and those are very conservative [00:14:04] estimates by because I always look at the the figures that are given [00:14:08] by these official agencies as being not [00:14:11] indicative the reality, you can tell that just from the fact that people are still talking [00:14:15] of only 75,00 people having been killed since the start of this [00:14:19] conflict, it's well near half million and yet we're still talking about these [00:14:23] nonsense figures so... the the crimes are [00:14:27] war crimes, they are continuing the genocide, there is no [00:14:30] true, there is no cease fire, there is no solution, no [00:14:34] two state solution, no greater Israel [00:14:37] solution, the UN [00:14:41] humanitarian office warns that settler attacks on Palestinians in the [00:14:45] occupied west bank are reaching a new high with the major escalation witnessed in [00:14:49] October 2026, the UN office said it documented nearly [00:14:52] 400 settler attacks between October 1st and [00:14:56] 26, marking record figure not previously seen a single month since it [00:15:00] began monitoring such attacks in 2006, it added that during [00:15:04] October 2026, the number of attacks resulting in [00:15:07] Palestinian casualties or property damage surpassed all [00:15:11] monthly total since documentation of such attacks [00:15:15] started. The UN office said 62 settler attacks resulting in [00:15:18] casualties or property damage were documented across nearly 50 West [00:15:22] Bank communities between October. [00:15:37] forced from's incursion into the occupied city of al- [00:15:41] Khalil. 24 Palestinian families, including 40 [00:15:45] children have also been displaced in tubos governorate as a result [00:15:49] of settler [00:15:49] attacks. [00:15:55] With the US mid-terms, just today away, candidates are making their final [00:15:58] push to win over [00:16:00] voters. [00:16:05] My focus has never wavered. I have. been clear about what our [00:16:08] responsibilities are, so rather than focus a distraction [00:16:12] about who said what to whom, where they went, i've been [00:16:15] consistent, i want to get money out of politics, [00:16:19] i want to put money back in pockets, i want medicare for [00:16:23] all, i want to take on the heinous price of gas, the ridiculous price [00:16:27] of groceries, the fact that people [00:16:29] in the richest, most powerful country in the world cannot see doctor, the richest, most powerful country in the world [00:16:33] cannot see doctor, the notion that we should continue to, that has been the focus [00:16:36] of this. campaign since April [00:16:38] of 2025 when we kicked it off, it's what we said in rooms across the [00:16:42] state, 700 public events, 120 different cities now, it's what [00:16:46] I've said in every interview with probably every single one of you right, it's what I said on [00:16:50] TV, it's what I said, I was trying to fall asleep at night, it is the goal of this [00:16:54] campaign, it's tough, you all know it's tough right now, and [00:16:57] and we can really change the this country for the [00:17:01] better, it's not just this election right here, it's about all [00:17:05] across the United States, you're seeing people uh and they're sick and tired [00:17:08] of billionaires getting what they want, while the rest of us have to pick up the [00:17:12] scraps. [00:17:17] Democratic and Republican candidates traded sharp attacks during debates [00:17:21] and campaign rallies with the war on Iran and its economic consequences [00:17:25] in the US among the key issues. According to the latest survey, democrats continue [00:17:29] to hold an edge over Republicans, however several closely [00:17:32] contested senate races could determine which party takes [00:17:35] control of Congress. Democrats need to flip four [00:17:39] Republican held seats to gain control the Senate while defending their own [00:17:43] seats in key states such as Michigan, Georgia and New [00:17:46] Hampshire. Several states including Texas and California are seeing [00:17:50] closely contested house races with competitive contests [00:17:54] taking place across the [00:17:55] country. [00:18:02] Academic and researcher Jim Kavana joined us earlier, he said Americans feel [00:18:05] betrayed by the promises Trump made. during his 2024 presidential [00:18:09] campaign to prove the economy and avoid new worse in the country's cost [00:18:13] of living crisis, worse in the country's cost of living [00:18:16] crisis. [00:18:20] i think the economic situation is terrible because of various [00:18:24] factors including [00:18:25] the the war in Iran, so people are just fed up with Trump, [00:18:29] and and this there [00:18:32] is a almost certainty that [00:18:36] the democrats will win the... of representatives and not a certainty but [00:18:39] very good chance that they'll win the senate. now that gives them the control the [00:18:43] legislative branch the government. okay, which does not [00:18:47] necessarily uh, they [00:18:50] can, that also gives them control the the purse, that gives [00:18:54] them control the money, so they can stop allocating money for wars, [00:18:58] etc., and but i caution everybody [00:19:02] outside the country not to think that this is going to mean an [00:19:05] end to the uh to the aggression [00:19:09] against the conflict with Iran or the aggression against [00:19:12] Iran, the Democratic Party as an institution is [00:19:16] entirely committed to Zionism and to not [00:19:19] allowing Iran to win what which would be [00:19:23] victory for Iran. the leader [00:19:26] the senate democrats [00:19:29] opposed the JCPOA and the [00:19:33] leader the House of Representative Democrats is Israeli [00:19:36] forever Israel. forever guy, so you [00:19:40] uh, we should be careful, there's a lot of discontent over prices, over the [00:19:44] economy [00:19:45] and over various [00:19:47] policies. [00:19:51] journalists, activists and political ananist John Boznic says, American [00:19:55] voters are frustrated because both major US parties are heavily [00:19:58] influenced by pro Israel interests, wealthy donors [00:20:02] and supporters of [00:20:03] war. [00:20:08] "both political parties in the United States are solidly [00:20:12] zionist, and if they aren't zionists by political [00:20:15] persuasion, they are so by briberry. Their [00:20:19] electoral process in the United States depends on [00:20:23] massive amounts of money, and both parties need to go to [00:20:27] the banksters and the warmongers who make their money [00:20:30] from human blood. However, there [00:20:34] is silver lining in this perpetual..." [00:20:50] houses, it definitely takes the wind out of his [00:20:53] sales as the president the United States, which [00:20:57] means that it's harder for him to unilaterally [00:21:01] make war on Iran, make further [00:21:05] support for Zelensky and Ukraine or engage [00:21:08] any kind of aggressive activity. Now Trump has [00:21:12] proven himself to be um very [00:21:16] unpredictable. I'm among the many people. [00:21:20] 'who are conservatives who supported Trump because we believed [00:21:23] him, we believed his promise of no more wars, and we were [00:21:27] fooled and we were cheated, and those people in his [00:21:31] own party are now not knowing what to do, and [00:21:35] many them will not [00:21:36] vote. [00:21:40] France's interior ministry has confirmed the arrest of nearly 800 [00:21:44] people during the third consecutive Saturday of nationwide protests, according to [00:21:48] French authorities, more than 300'. thousand people took part in [00:21:52] nationwide demonstrations this weekend. This comes amit partial bands on [00:21:55] rilies imposed by regional authorities. Further protests are reportedly [00:21:59] planned for several days next week. The demonstrations initially [00:22:03] erupted at schools whether students voiced where rather students [00:22:07] voiced their anger over educational conditions. The protests and escalated [00:22:11] into mass demonstrations with trade unions and members the [00:22:15] Yellow Vest movement taking to the streets to protest the rising [00:22:19] cost of living. and demand increased funding for [00:22:22] education. [00:22:28] Yemeny military operations are increasingly affecting Saudi Arabia's economy and [00:22:32] daily life, bringing air traffic at some of its airports to an almost [00:22:36] complete standstill. Analysts say the disruptions reflect the [00:22:40] widening consequences the war on Yemen and raise [00:22:44] questions about the kingdom's ability to maintain its carefully cultivated image [00:22:47] of stability. For more correspon. Mansur joins us [00:22:50] from [00:22:54] so. Yemen's deterrance equations are increasingly [00:22:57] exposing the fragility the stability image that Saudi Arabia [00:23:01] has sold to project internationally for [00:23:05] decades. Bloomberg recently reported that Yemani [00:23:08] operations brought air traffic in the city capital to an [00:23:12] almost complete stand still with 94% [00:23:16] of departing flights from riad airporting flight. [00:23:20] from riyadh airport cancelled between October 10, so [00:23:24] forced the Riyadh air to relocate its operations to [00:23:28] an airport roughly 400 km away, [00:23:32] operating only limited flights until father [00:23:35] notice. [00:23:44] it's oil sector followed by a ban on air traffic, more facilities, including more [00:23:48] airports, also come under attack, ports may be targeted in the [00:23:52] next phase if the Saudi regime continues its escalation. At [00:23:56] present, there are no indications of a political solution or dialogue with [00:24:00] Riyad, given its continued rejection of Sanad's demands. [00:24:04] Flight rider showed the complete halt to air traffic at [00:24:08] King Fahad International Airport in Damasmam, eastern Saudi Arabia [00:24:12] today with several aircraft circling in the air space [00:24:15] unable to land. Riad air was forced to [00:24:19] rewrote. flights to six domestic and international [00:24:22] destinations through Qasim [00:24:24] airport. It has become clear [00:24:28] that Saudi air defense systems have failed to intercept missiles [00:24:31] and drones with the latest strikes serving as clear [00:24:35] evidence. Today we are facing capabilities far more advanced [00:24:39] than before, leaving Saudi Arabia increasingly exposed. This [00:24:43] highlights the fragility of Raad's defenses, despite the involvement [00:24:47] of multiple parties in supporting its air defense. [00:24:51] many believe that the disruptions to air traffic at Sudi Airports [00:24:55] show that the impact the confrontation is extending [00:24:59] beyond the military arena, affecting vital sectors [00:25:02] central to the kingdom's international image and economic [00:25:06] standing, the growing pressure is also testing Saudi [00:25:10] Arabia's ability to maintain [00:25:12] stability. Recent developments are [00:25:15] increasingly exposing Saudi Arabia to the mounting costs of [00:25:19] confrontation. while Sanha warns that continued aggression and the [00:25:23] bloccade will leave the door open to further escalation and its [00:25:26] consequences.
