[00:02:40] Iran's navy says a violating oil tanker caught
[00:02:43] of fire after hitting a sea mine and a straight offer moves.
[00:02:47] According to
[00:02:48] a the navy, the tanker was moving
[00:02:50] in a prohibited and unsafe area east
[00:02:53] of the straight offers when it struck seam causing a
[00:02:57] fire on board. The vessel had switched off. its navigation
[00:03:01] systems, the navy warned tankers owners to learn from the
[00:03:05] fate of such vessels which try to pass through prohibited
[00:03:08] areas by turning off their navigation systems and said
[00:03:12] unauthorized passage through high risk areas can lead to
[00:03:16] mine strikes and fires. the IRGC's navy
[00:03:20] command has said that from October
[00:03:26] of in the 25th, the date of sendcom commander Brad Cooper's show visit to district of removes to date that's nine day
[00:03:30] later, 11 violating tankers have burned in the straight of
[00:03:33] ruz
[00:03:34] a with some sinking to the depth
[00:03:36] of the
[00:03:36] sea.
[00:03:41] we were joined earlier byy, academic, researcher and
[00:03:45] author who said the disruption and district of removes is a
[00:03:48] consequence
[00:03:49] of the us and aggression against Iran, with the whole world
[00:03:53] now suffering from the
[00:03:54] fallout. the
[00:03:58] straight of hormos was open. before end of
[00:04:01] February when they attacked
[00:04:03] a and killed the Iranian leader, the Iranian children, other Iranian citizen and
[00:04:07] infrastructure, the only reason it's closed is because
[00:04:10] Iran, rather than developing nuclear weapon and try to
[00:04:14] use that against its enemies is utilizing the straight of
[00:04:18] homose is part of its own territory, it's permitted to do
[00:04:22] that under all international moral and acts
[00:04:26] of war, and it's the only way unfortunately the rest
[00:04:32] of of the world. has to wake up to the uh empire, to the to the oppressive empire of
[00:04:35] America, because for 47 years, the world kind of
[00:04:39] assisted or turned away from America putting sanctions on
[00:04:43] Iran, killing Iranian citizens through lack of med, access to
[00:04:46] medicine and infrastructure so forth, so now the world has to
[00:04:50] understand that if Iran is going to have a blockade
[00:04:54] around it, it's going to suffer sanctions and so forth, the rest
[00:04:57] of the world either suffers with Iran in the sense.
[00:05:01] of going
[00:05:02] all up, prices lack the of commodities, or that the rest
[00:05:04] of the world also needs to stand up, and that's what we're seeing in Europe, and that's
[00:05:08] why Europe
[00:05:10] of is burning right now, literally burning. because the acts the united
[00:05:14] states. Iran and
[00:05:18] Turkmenistan stressed developing cooperation in various areas of
[00:05:21] mutual interest in a meeting ashkabot, foreign
[00:05:25] ministeri and his turkbank counterport Rashid
[00:05:28] Meradov reviewed the latest state of relations between the
[00:05:32] two countries. Both emphasize leveraging capacities to
[00:05:36] develop cooperation in various political and economic
[00:05:40] fields. Maridov said the historic ties between the two
[00:05:43] nations serve as the foundation for advancing
[00:05:47] relations, also lorded expanding ties with Iran
[00:05:50] in commercial, political and cultural
[00:05:53] fields. bilateral relations, regional and
[00:05:57] international developments were also among the main topics of
[00:06:01] discussion.
[00:06:07] more than 11 billion dollars in political advertising is
[00:06:11] projected for america's 2026 mid-term elections
[00:06:14] sparking debate over the influence of billionaires,
[00:06:18] bigtech and powerful political
[00:06:21] organizations. apac is at the center of online
[00:06:24] backlash with users questioning its role in helping
[00:06:28] republicans maintained their congressional majority and advanced
[00:06:32] Donald Trump's foreign policy agenda. Roya is here to tell us
[00:06:36] more. Thank you kurash for that intro and
[00:06:39] welcome everyone, more than 11 billion. That's
[00:06:43] the projected price tag for political advertising in America's
[00:06:47] 2026 midterm elections and behind those campaign
[00:06:51] ads, billionaires, powerful corporations, tech giants
[00:06:55] and most importantly political organizations
[00:06:59] spending enormous sums to shape who gets elected and who
[00:07:02] controls congress. One organization in particular is
[00:07:06] at the center of this debate apac. Many users
[00:07:10] online believe this money is help. helping republicans hold to
[00:07:14] their majorities and advance Donald Trump's agenda, especially
[00:07:18] when it comes to foreign policy. But what do Americans think
[00:07:22] about all this money flowing into politics? For congressional
[00:07:26] candidate Kelly Thompson, this is about what happens after wealthy
[00:07:30] donors help get their preferred candidates into office, and
[00:07:34] her message to voters is simple: stop electing
[00:07:37] politicians to take money from wealthy donors. Let's hear what she have
[00:07:41] to say.
[00:07:47] 4.2 billion
[00:07:50] dollars. That's how much the ultra rich have
[00:07:54] poured into this mid-term election.
[00:07:58] This is not complicated, so follow me now.
[00:08:02] If the ultra rich are willing to invest
[00:08:06] 4.2 billion dollars
[00:08:09] a mid-term election with no president. on the
[00:08:12] ballot, the only people they care about on the
[00:08:16] ballot are your congress people
[00:08:20] and your senators that are running, and why do they care? because
[00:08:24] those are the people who write the laws, those are
[00:08:28] the people that decide who gets taxed
[00:08:32] and how much, and where that money gets
[00:08:36] spent, for many
[00:08:39] users online,
[00:08:40] they are even questioning whether the... can support candidates who
[00:08:44] accept money from organizations like Apac. Jimmy puts it
[00:08:48] blunting bluntly by saying that he's sitting out midterms
[00:08:52] in all elections, unless a true American
[00:08:55] first that receives no money from APAC
[00:08:59] is on the on the table. And moving to another
[00:09:03] comment, for others, actually the issue goes beyond direct financial
[00:09:06] support. They argue that political positions can matter just
[00:09:10] as much as the money itself. and that's exactly how muhammad puts
[00:09:14] it. now the common denominator isn't Apach anymore, but pro
[00:09:18] Israel statements and stances, and it's not
[00:09:22] just traditional billionaires and political donors facing
[00:09:25] scrutiny. political activist Melissa and Schmidt
[00:09:29] highlights the role of technology companies associated with
[00:09:33] Elon Musk, which have been linked to hundreds of millions of
[00:09:37] dollars in political spending to support Republican
[00:09:41] candidates, Take a
[00:09:42] listen.
[00:09:48] When did we decide it was normal to spend billions of dollars trying
[00:09:52] to influence elections in this country. Elon Musk
[00:09:56] alone has reportedly contributed more than 445 million
[00:09:59] to federal political committees during the 2026 election
[00:10:03] cycle. And meanwhile, American families are struggling to afford
[00:10:07] groceries, housing, healthcare, and basic necessities.
[00:10:11] It just bothers me. You... no campaigns cost money, nobody's arguing that they
[00:10:15] shouldn't, but when did our elections become so focused
[00:10:19] on who can raise the most money instead of who has the best
[00:10:22] ideas? Melissa's argument
[00:10:26] has struck nerve with users and they are warning that spending big
[00:10:30] on elections can backfire, especially when voters feel
[00:10:34] their concerns are being ignored. Shahed Masod has message for
[00:10:38] Big Tech by saying the following Big Tech tried to buy the mid terms, the mid terms may
[00:10:41] bury big tech. You can fund a campaign, you cannot buy
[00:10:45] a backlash. And then there are those who question
[00:10:48] whether all that political spending will even pay off.
[00:10:52] Iida has a more blunt take regarding that. by saying, well, all that money invested
[00:10:56] in losing elections, we're not benefiting from that
[00:11:00] money, so the backlash is growing across social
[00:11:04] media, and one question keeps coming up, is American
[00:11:07] democracy becoming a game that only the richest can afford to
[00:11:11] play, more than 11 billion dollars in political
[00:11:14] advertising, the money is flowing, the ads are everywhere, and
[00:11:18] with Apac at the center of what many users see as attempt to
[00:11:22] influence elections, another question remains: What does
[00:11:26] all this money actually buy and whose interests are
[00:11:29] politicians expected to serve once the votes are
[00:11:33] counted? That's all for now, thank you for watching. Thank you so much
[00:11:37] Riya for that report. Now, moving after two weeks of
[00:11:40] a school holidays a student protest resumed across France
[00:11:44] on Monday, November the 2nd, but several high schools
[00:11:48] blocked. Students have denounced police violence saying they will
[00:11:52] continue mobilizing despite a pressure.
[00:11:58] student protests have resumed in France, high school students have now
[00:12:02] organized blockades as the movement has entered new phase. the return
[00:12:06] to school has not brought an end to the mobilization. students
[00:12:10] say their demands
[00:12:11] remain unanswered and insist they are determined to continue
[00:12:14] protesting.
[00:12:18] we knew the movement would not lose momentum during the holidays and here we
[00:12:22] are back for the start
[00:12:24] the school year. "the government is wrong if it thought we would stop, this
[00:12:28] is not just a symbolic movement, it reflects widespread anger,
[00:12:32] and we want things to change. of course, we're not going to stop
[00:12:35] here. the police violence against us shows the government's
[00:12:39] hypocrisy. they don't want things to change, so they use heavy
[00:12:42] police repression to make us abandon the struggle, but that's not going to
[00:12:46] stop us. find it unacceptable, and it really shows how little the
[00:12:50] government listens to the
[00:12:51] people."
[00:12:55] "for months now, we've been demanding our rights, we're tired the government
[00:12:59] refusing to listen to us, if they listened, things would be
[00:13:02] better, it would all move faster and we would have ended the
[00:13:06] blockates, all we want is better conditions to study, we want to
[00:13:09] study, we're not blocking schools because we want to skip
[00:13:12] classes, we actually want to learn, but the government doesn't understand
[00:13:16] that, they think violence will stop us from protesting, but it only makes us
[00:13:20] even angrier, we're going to keep fighting until they give in because we've had
[00:13:23] enough, but..." "the return to school was also marked by reports of
[00:13:27] physical violence during police interventions, with students
[00:13:31] describing what they say were brutal acts against
[00:13:33] them.
[00:13:37] police officers violently beat us this morning, one officer
[00:13:41] even tore my sweater while violently pulling me to the ground. they
[00:13:45] threw me to the ground, my classmates were being choked.
[00:13:49] another student was grabbed by the legs and dragged along the ground by
[00:13:53] police officers. we really..."
[00:14:25] to keep mobilizing until their demands are
[00:14:27] heard. Casim Hasan reporting for Press
[00:14:31] TV in
[00:14:31] Paris.
[00:14:36] Five people have been killed in freshes ready attacks under Gaza's trip as the
[00:14:40] Palestinian death tholl since October 2023
[00:14:44] rises to 74,609
[00:14:48] causes health ministry says 11 Palestinians were killed
[00:14:52] and 38 others injured over the past 48. hours,
[00:14:55] bringing the total number the wounded to
[00:14:58] 175, at least
[00:15:01] 1,500, at least 1,500
[00:15:04] palestinians have been killed since the last year cease fire. as for
[00:15:08] the strikes have continued across the besieg territory, despite
[00:15:12] the truth with civilians including children among the
[00:15:15] victims.
[00:15:21] behind every casualty figure is a child whose life has
[00:15:25] being cut short, family that is left shattered
[00:15:29] and a future stolen. In Gaza's Ready attacks continue to
[00:15:32] leave children dead, families devastated and
[00:15:36] survivors struggling. with life altering injuries and
[00:15:39] trauma. Ibrahim reports and
[00:15:41] this. The
[00:15:45] flames have died down, but the devastation remains,
[00:15:49] what was supposed to be attent sheltering them from
[00:15:52] bombardment became death trap. Two
[00:15:56] children were burned to death here after Israeli Shrabnal
[00:15:59] sparked fire inside their tent, turning a place of
[00:16:03] refuge into a scene of unimaginable loss.
[00:16:09] They couldn't extinguish the fire. The mother, Hannah, rushed
[00:16:12] in panic through the flames, but it was too late, and she
[00:16:16] sustained burns all over her face and body. They were
[00:16:20] children sleeping. What was their fault to be killed in this horrific
[00:16:24] way. In another devastating
[00:16:27] incident, eight year old Muhammad Wais was killed
[00:16:31] alongside his father in Gaza City. His mother
[00:16:34] survived the same Israeli strike, but lost both
[00:16:38] legs, leaving her to mourn the loss of her husband and
[00:16:42] young son while coping with live changing
[00:16:45] injuries. the bloodshed of our
[00:16:49] children must stop. there is no ceasefire in
[00:16:52] Gaza. those
[00:16:54] who claim otherwise are lying. muhammad was beside
[00:16:58] his father near their tent when an Israeli strike killed them both
[00:17:02] and left his mother without her legs. a single moment
[00:17:06] family's world was... scattered, how can arab leaders
[00:17:09] witness all this and remain silent? how much more innocent
[00:17:13] blood must be spilled before their humanity
[00:17:15] awakens? these killings are
[00:17:19] part of much wider tragedy, according to the
[00:17:22] euromiditarian human rights monitor, Israeli forces killed
[00:17:26] 19 palestinian children in october alone,
[00:17:30] average of one child every 35
[00:17:33] hours. These
[00:17:37] figures must stand as a stark warning to the Israeli policy of targeting
[00:17:41] children in particular. Israel has been gravely violating international
[00:17:45] humanitarian laws and human rights that appears in the indiscriminate killing of
[00:17:49] civilians and children. By demonizing and dehumanizing Gaza
[00:17:53] Children, Israel seeks to normalize their killings. This is a continuing
[00:17:57] crime that requires immediate intervention from the international
[00:18:00] community. The figures represent far
[00:18:04] more than a monthly death toll. They reflect. affects not
[00:18:08] only the loss of life, deep psychologically trauma
[00:18:11] and deep psychologically trauma and the lasting
[00:18:15] burden a generation growing up with repeated
[00:18:19] displacement, fear and
[00:18:22] insecurity. 19 children in just one
[00:18:25] month, each had a name, family and dreams that
[00:18:29] deserved the chance to come true, and for the families left
[00:18:33] behind, the silence of a child's absence is a
[00:18:37] loss. that no sease fire or a passing month can
[00:18:40] erase brahim for press tv gaza city
[00:18:44] palestine. Amas has condemned
[00:18:48] international silence in the face of what it called the zinist
[00:18:51] terrorism of Israel vowing that the regime will never manage to
[00:18:55] eliminate Palestinian's national identity. Hamas made
[00:18:59] point a statement to mark the 109th
[00:19:02] anniversary the Ballford declaration that set off
[00:19:06] the fabric. ation
[00:19:08] of Israel as an entity, the group said the declaration was
[00:19:12] sinister pledge by Britain to Jews regarding territory
[00:19:15] Britains didn't own and zinus didn't deserve.
[00:19:19] It said Israel is fascist regime that is committing every sort
[00:19:23] of crime including killing, displacing, and genocide against
[00:19:27] Palestinians. Hamas called for a unified Palestinian struggle
[00:19:31] to liberate the nation's lands. It also reiterated
[00:19:34] forces, the force refugees right. to return
[00:19:38] to their homeland and call for international pressure to end
[00:19:42] Israel's
[00:19:42] terrorism.
[00:19:47] a former palestine action activist who spent
[00:19:50] 547 days behind bars without
[00:19:53] conviction, speaking out against Britain's crackdown on those
[00:19:56] challenging its military ties with Israel amid the genocide
[00:20:00] in Gaza. Acquitted of all charges, Joe
[00:20:04] Hinchcliff described the operation that led to her
[00:20:07] arrests as controversial judicial decisions. Our
[00:20:11] correspondent Sarah uh also reports
[00:20:14] on
[00:20:16] this.
[00:20:20] Palestine Action is a direct action group founded by young people in Britain in
[00:20:23] 2020 to shut down companies supply the Israel military
[00:20:27] arsenal. Through factory occupations, blockades and the destruction of
[00:20:31] military equipment, activists sort to disrupt weapons
[00:20:35] productions and supply chains. For Joey Hinchliff than just 20
[00:20:39] preparing for university, witnessing the genocide in Gaza, make
[00:20:43] her direct action and urgent moral obligation.
[00:20:47] Britain is one the main countries that is supporting this genocide.
[00:20:51] um and when the government fails to act, the only thing that is
[00:20:54] left for us to do is direct
[00:20:57] action. elbit is this world largest weapon
[00:21:00] manufacturer, supplying drones, surveillance, ting systems
[00:21:04] and other military equipment directly been u 2024,
[00:21:08] palestine action target 2024, palestine action targeted
[00:21:12] spilton facility near Bristol. joey joined the team intending to
[00:21:16] enter the factory, destroy military equipment and accept arrest. "I
[00:21:20] was part the red team who had planned
[00:21:23] to break inside the factory, um,
[00:21:27] destroy weapons and get arrested, and us in the red
[00:21:30] team were supported by a black team who are on trial right
[00:21:34] now, and their job was to protect us and
[00:21:38] distract the security long enough for us to get inside. We were
[00:21:42] successful in getting inside and
[00:21:46] we found quadcopters.
[00:21:50] um
[00:21:50] we found surveillance quadcopters and we found what are referred to as killer
[00:21:54] drones which are used to drop grenades on
[00:21:56] palestinians even
[00:21:58] children um and we were able
[00:22:02] to destroy them before the police arrived. the operation caused millions of pounds
[00:22:06] in damage according to prosecutors who also alleged violence against
[00:22:10] security personnel. joe says the guards themselves were
[00:22:14] brutal, militarily trained and used excessive force against
[00:22:17] them. they were, however never... investigated for exceeding the limits
[00:22:21] of lawful self-defense. arrested by counter terrorist
[00:22:25] police, she was never charged with terrorism. two juries
[00:22:29] ultimately acquited her of every charge, but she had already
[00:22:32] spent 547 days in prison without
[00:22:35] conviction. sometimes you wouldn't have enough

[00:25:34] Iran prepared for any
[00:25:36] scenario.
[00:27:12] was a 30 year old man from Tehran. He was a
[00:27:15] hard-working laborer, loving husband and father whose
[00:27:19] world revolved around his little daughter's laughter. He was not
[00:27:23] famous and he did not live life of luxury. His world
[00:27:27] was simple, work, family, and the dream of building better future
[00:27:31] for his daughter of all. but the US Israely attack on Iran brought
[00:27:35] his ordinary life to an end and changed his family's future
[00:27:39] forever on March 7th 2026 Muhammad Riza left home
[00:27:43] to buy baby formula for his daughter on Abuzar street in Tehran
[00:27:47] an explosion suddenly shook the area. The sky
[00:27:50] darkened as pieces of stone, metal and glass rain down. Muhammad razo
[00:27:54] told his wife to lower her head. Moments later, a
[00:27:58] fragment of bomb struck the back of his head. His last word what
[00:28:02] his his daughter's name, ava. Mohammad Reza fell into
[00:28:05] a coma for 21 days, his wife,
[00:28:09] Paris held his calused hand and showed him videos of Over
[00:28:13] laughing, begging him to come back. She even repaired his
[00:28:16] broken motorcycle so he would not be upset when he returned
[00:28:20] home. They hoped to celebrate the Persian New Year together.
[00:28:24] In the final days the year, Pattisaw brought their daughter to
[00:28:28] her father's bedside, placed their hands side by side and
[00:28:32] took a photograph, she promised Muhammad Riza she would show him
[00:28:36] the picture the following year, but he never came home. doctors
[00:28:40] confirmed that he was brain dead and his family faced
[00:28:44] the most painful truth their lives and met their
[00:28:47] grief and memory helped guide them toward difficult
[00:28:51] decision. mhammad raza had once told his wife that if anything
[00:28:55] ever happened to him, he did not want his organs to be buried with
[00:28:58] them, he wanted them to save other people's lives.
[00:29:02] accepting his wish was not easy, especially for his grieving mother, but
[00:29:06] in the end the family agreed to donate his organs. By
[00:29:10] donating Muhammad Riza's heart, kidneys and liver, the
[00:29:14] family gave several patients a second chance of life.
[00:29:18] The US Israely attack took him away from his loved ones, but through
[00:29:22] his final act of generosity he brought hope to other
[00:29:26] families. Muhammad Riza and his wife had waited 10 years to have
[00:29:30] a child when Oba was born, he cared for. her with joy, made
[00:29:33] plans for her future and dreamed of teaching her sports and music. he
[00:29:37] wanted her to grow up strong and learn to stand up for her rights.
[00:29:41] now, oba talks to her father through his photograph and kisses it every
[00:29:45] morning. she's still too young to understand why he will never
[00:29:49] come home again. perhaps one day when she's older, her
[00:29:53] mother will tell her how her father lived, how he worked
[00:29:57] quietly and tirelessly, helped those in need and thought of
[00:30:00] saving others even as he. was leaving this world, Mohammad Reza
[00:30:04] Behbudi lived simple life, but his legacy reached
[00:30:08] far beyond it. The war took away of us chance to grow up
[00:30:12] beside her father, yet his final gift gave other people the chance to
[00:30:16] live, return home and remain with their loved ones. Perhaps
[00:30:20] this is the heartbreaking yet hopeful meaning of Muhammad Riza's
[00:30:24] life, a man who lost his life in the US Israely
[00:30:27] attack, gave the gift of life to others through organ
[00:30:30] donation while his own little. daughter must grow up with the
[00:30:34] pain of his
[00:30:35] absence.

[00:31:01] home.
