Ibrahim Sweid, Television reaches [00:02:35] artisan Muhammad Barini who revived the art of mosaic [00:02:38] after returning from asylum in Turkey to Ain Tarma [00:02:42] with the latest targeting by in the Damascus countryside. Despite losing his four factories that [00:02:45] were destroyed by the war, Barini continues to transfer his accumulated experience [00:02:50] is true, but only over decades through And I see that this a small workshop and limited [00:02:53] capabilities. [00:02:57] the students are returning and this is primarily reflected [00:03:00] I've been in this craft for 50 years, and we worked [00:03:04] in it and excelled in it. Thank God, and it's all made of [00:03:10] Min Yashtrik." Among state has two seats in 100% natural stones from local and foreign marble. We traveled and worked [00:03:13] in Turkey [00:03:15] hit this for 14 years, and we did good work [00:03:19] immediate in Turkey, thank God. And we started sending to America and working [00:03:23] for Turkey and America. [00:03:26] And when the liberation happened, we packed up and returned because our country [00:03:30] so we can work for the country again, meaning this craft returns to [00:03:33] the country. During the revolution, I had four factories. Now, thank God, when I returned, I didn't have [00:03:39] at the any factory. We rented [00:03:40] displaced a factory and are working, and we started from scratch. [00:03:43] We lived and learned this craft from my father since I was 10 [00:03:47] years old, and we started it [00:03:49] change in until we were forced to migrate [00:03:52] due to the war and shelling. But before [00:03:54] the war, this profession was very [00:03:58] famous, and my father was known for this [00:04:01] profession. He even did many projects and so on, and I used to see this [00:04:05] and dream of learning and becoming [00:04:08] so. So that's why, with my studies, I used to go down to [00:04:12] the factory at every opportunity I had to learn this [00:04:14] until we were forced to travel due to the war. [00:04:38] the presence of a large number of oversight over [00:04:43] US President Donald Trump [00:04:45] two years of threatened to use his presidential [00:04:47] veto against bills that may be [00:04:50] introduced by Democrats if they take control of [00:04:55] does not Congress in the midterm elections. [00:04:56] want the Trump stated in statements to the New York [00:05:00] Post that his repeated rejection of bills [00:05:02] would force Democrats to negotiate [00:05:06] with his administration to reach agreements, asserting [00:05:09] his ability to implement his policies even [00:05:13] Congress, explaining that he would transform [00:05:17] into what he described as Mr. [00:05:18] Veto. [00:05:27] A poll conducted by NBC News showed [00:05:31] the Democratic Party leading the Republican by a margin of [00:05:34] seven percentage points ahead of the midterm congressional elections [00:05:38] scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday. According to the poll, [00:05:41] 52% of participants supported [00:05:45] Democratic control of Congress, compared to 45% [00:05:49] for Republicans. The poll also revealed an increase in the disapproval [00:05:52] rating of Trump's performance to 60%, while [00:05:56] 64% of that he [00:06:00] had not lived up to their expectations amid [00:06:03] growing dissatisfaction with the economic conditions and his administration's [00:06:06] policies. [00:06:16] the United States of America to redraw the balance [00:06:19] of power within the legislative institution, where [00:06:22] competition between the Democratic and Republican parties [00:06:25] to win the majority in both houses of Congress, in addition [00:06:29] to elections to elect state governors, in [00:06:32] a scene that will determine the future two years of President [00:06:36] Trump's presidential term. More details about these [00:06:41] the following article. Colleague Bilal Al-Bizra [00:06:43] Midterm elections in the United [00:06:47] States are known by this name [00:06:50] because they take place in the middle of the presidential term, [00:06:54] which lasts for four years, [00:06:57] and represent a test of voter satisfaction with the president's [00:07:00] performance and policies. Americans go [00:07:03] to the polls to elect members [00:07:07] of the House and Senate, in addition to state [00:07:10] governors and representatives in other local positions. [00:07:15] elections, it is necessary to understand the American [00:07:19] which is based on the separation of three [00:07:23] powers: executive, led by the president; legislative, represented by Congress [00:07:26] with its two houses, the Senate and the House of Representatives; [00:07:29] and independent judicial, headed by the Supreme Court. [00:07:33] This system aims to prevent the concentration of powers in one entity through [00:07:37] the distribution of powers and the establishment [00:07:41] of mutual oversight mechanisms. [00:07:44] The Congress elections include all 435 seats [00:07:47] of the House of Representatives, as its members are elected [00:07:50] every two years, and the seats are distributed [00:07:54] among the states according to their population. As for the Senate, [00:07:58] which has 100 members, the term of membership [00:08:02] is six years, and about one-third [00:08:05] of its seats are renewed every two years. In these [00:08:08] elections, candidates compete for [00:08:10] 35 seats. Republicans hold [00:08:14] 22 of these seats, compared to [00:08:17] 13 for Democrats. Each [00:08:22] the council, regardless of its population [00:08:25] or area. Republicans have [00:08:28] a narrow majority in the House of Representatives, [00:08:31] holding 218 seats [00:08:34] compared to 214 [00:08:37] for Democrats, with two vacant [00:08:40] seats and one independent member. In the Senate, [00:08:43] Republicans lead with 53 seats, [00:08:47] compared to 45 for Democrats [00:08:49] and two for independents who usually [00:08:53] align with Democrats. This narrow majority [00:08:56] makes the competition for congressional seats [00:08:59] crucial, as a limited [00:09:02] the results could tip the balance of power [00:09:05] within one of the houses. The competition is not limited [00:09:08] to Congress, as 36 [00:09:11] states are holding elections to elect [00:09:14] their governors, which is equivalent to 72% [00:09:17] of the total American states, giving [00:09:21] these elections an importance that transcends the federal [00:09:24] level to the political scene within [00:09:27] the states. Midterm elections are not just [00:09:30] about changing members of Congress, [00:09:34] but also extend to the president's ability to pass [00:09:37] his legislative agenda. His party retaining [00:09:40] the majority or losing it [00:09:43] in one of the houses affects the approval of laws and budgets [00:09:46] and the ability of Congress to exercise [00:09:50] the administration, making these elections a pivotal [00:09:53] point in determining the course of the last [00:09:57] the presidential term. [00:10:08] Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak said that [00:10:12] Netanyahu wants to attack Iran to stay in power. [00:10:15] Barak pointed out that Netanyahu [00:10:19] seeks to prevent discussion about his controversial [00:10:22] record by escalating against Iran. [00:10:25] He affirmed that attacking Iran could put pressure [00:10:29] to form a unity government with Netanyahu's participation. [00:10:32] Barak confirmed that there was no intelligence information [00:10:36] that would necessitate immediate action against [00:10:38] Iran. [00:10:43] Medical sources in Gaza reported the killing of five Palestinians [00:10:47] and the injury of others as a result of Israeli raids [00:10:50] targeting several areas in the Gaza Strip. This comes after [00:10:53] the killing of nine Palestinians yesterday, Sunday, as a result [00:10:57] of Israeli targeting that affected Khan Yunis and the Rimal neighborhood in Gaza [00:11:01] City. The Israeli army continues its violations of the ceasefire [00:11:04] that has been in effect since October 10, [00:11:07] 2025 through shelling and shooting in [00:11:12] the Strip. [00:11:21] The governor of Hebron, Khaled Dudin, announced the withdrawal of Israeli [00:11:25] occupation forces completely from the city [00:11:28] located south of the West Bank after a military [00:11:31] operation that lasted ten days. The governor affirmed [00:11:34] that families who were forced to leave their homes can return [00:11:38] to them after the withdrawal of the occupation forces from the city. [00:11:41] The Israeli military operation [00:11:44] in Hebron caused the displacement and damage [00:11:47] of more than 3,300 [00:11:50] Palestinians, especially in the areas of Al-Jaladah [00:11:53] and Ain. Deir Bah, in addition [00:11:56] to the demolition of 15 homes and facilities. [00:12:11] I now turn, dear viewers, to Shurooq Shaheen, Syria TV correspondent, [00:12:14] live with me from Gaza. [00:12:17] Shurooq, welcome. So, [00:12:21] a field report on what happened regarding [00:12:26] in the Gaza Strip. With you, [00:12:28] Shurooq. [00:12:35] Yes, there have been five martyrs since [00:12:38] this morning until [00:12:41] now as a result of the new Israeli [00:12:45] violations and aggressions on several areas [00:12:49] in the Gaza Strip. Perhaps the most prominent [00:12:52] of these areas where the aggressions occurred [00:12:56] are Gaza City [00:12:58] and also the central [00:13:02] and southern governorates of the Gaza Strip. I will start [00:13:07] the Israeli drone, [00:13:10] which fired a missile at a civilian vehicle in [00:13:14] Hay al-Hawa, south of Gaza City. This [00:13:17] raid resulted in the martyrdom of a Palestinian [00:13:21] and also the transfer of a number of injured people to [00:13:25] Al-Shifa Medical Hospital. Also, [00:13:28] in the central Gaza Strip, specifically in [00:13:32] the Al-Masdar area, a quadcopter drone [00:13:35] dropped a bomb on a Palestinian, and its shrapnel [00:13:40] young Palestinian, leading to his [00:13:44] martyrdom, and his body was transferred to Al-Aqsa [00:13:48] Hospital, which is located in Gaza City, [00:13:51] in Deir al-Balah. As for the [00:13:55] southern governorate of the Gaza Strip, [00:13:58] specifically Khan Yunis and the Al-Mawasi area, [00:14:01] where there are huge numbers of [00:14:05] Palestinians, the Israeli occupation [00:14:08] targeted on two separate [00:14:11] occasions a number of Palestinians in [00:14:14] this area, which led to the martyrdom of two, [00:14:18] and therefore we are talking about four [00:14:21] martyrs as a result of the new Israeli [00:14:24] raids, which targeted areas in the Gaza [00:14:28] Strip. The fifth martyr is a police [00:14:31] officer who was martyred due to his injuries [00:14:35] sustained yesterday after an Israeli raid [00:14:38] targeted a gathering of police [00:14:42] officers and personnel in the Al-Mawasi area [00:14:45] west of Gaza City, west of Khan Yunis City, [00:14:48] while they were performing their duty [00:14:51] of maintaining security and establishing peace [00:14:54] and security in this area, [00:14:58] which needs police officers, especially with [00:15:03] displaced people, and the large overcrowding [00:15:06] leads to disputes between Palestinian families. [00:15:10] The presence of these officers works to [00:15:13] resolve conflicts and disputes among displaced Palestinians, [00:15:17] but the Israeli occupation [00:15:21] Interior Ministry, which belongs to Hamas, [00:15:25] to continue this work, and therefore targets them [00:15:28] directly. This is not the first [00:15:31] time that the Israeli occupation has targeted [00:15:35] police officers. We have been following [00:15:39] and monitoring since the first day of this [00:15:42] Israeli war that there is a clear [00:15:46] deliberate targeting by the Israeli occupation [00:15:49] of police officers [00:15:52] Hamas from continuing its rule [00:15:56] of the Gaza Strip. Also, there was a statement [00:15:59] from the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Furat, [00:16:03] speaking about the arrival of more than ten [00:16:06] martyrs during the past 48 [00:16:09] hours as a result of the continuous Israeli [00:16:13] violations and aggressions, and this toll will not [00:16:16] be the last given the continued Israeli aggressions on [00:16:19] scattered areas in the Gaza Strip. [00:16:23] At the time of the Israeli elections, [00:16:26] these violations and aggressions [00:16:28] subsided, but when the Israeli election [00:16:31] process ended, Israeli drones [00:16:35] returned to hover over the skies of the Gaza [00:16:38] Strip, and also warplanes carry out raids [00:16:42] from time to time, targeting [00:16:45] civilians directly, and this naturally [00:16:50] of casualties, both martyrs and wounded. The repercussions of these [00:16:54] violations, Shurooq, if you could also talk about [00:16:58] the humanitarian situation in the Gaza [00:17:00] Strip, as well as the issue of [00:17:03] aid. Is it reaching the Strip well? [00:17:13] Yes, these violations cannot only be talked about as [00:17:16] military violations, but also Israeli violations [00:17:20] of the ceasefire also affect [00:17:23] the humanitarian aspect, especially with what [00:17:26] the Israeli occupation imposes of [00:17:29] a suffocating siege on all vital [00:17:32] sectors. Regarding aid, there is [00:17:36] a very limited entry of trucks that [00:17:39] do not meet the wide need [00:17:42] for food and relief [00:17:46] materials that the residents of the Gaza [00:17:49] Strip need, especially since we are approaching winter, and it is [00:17:53] the fourth winter that will enter the Gaza [00:17:55] Strip since the beginning of this [00:17:59] Israeli war, and there are wide needs such [00:18:02] as blankets and mattresses, and also shelter supplies [00:18:06] that the Israeli occupation prevents [00:18:09] from entering sufficiently to meet the needs of more than [00:18:13] one million displaced people who are spread [00:18:16] in several areas in the Gaza Strip. Most of these [00:18:20] areas are west of the yellow line areas, [00:18:23] in addition to the Israeli occupation's control [00:18:26] over the entry of medicines and medical supplies, [00:18:32] in the wounded, especially since we observe [00:18:35] daily the martyrdom of Palestinians [00:18:37] due to their injuries because they do not receive the necessary [00:18:41] and essential treatment inside hospitals, given the shortage [00:18:45] of medicines and medical supplies in these hospitals. [00:18:48] At the same time, the Israeli occupation [00:18:52] controls the number of wounded travelers [00:18:55] and allows a very limited number [00:18:58] to travel through the Rafah land crossing, which is designated [00:19:02] for transporting individuals, Furat. Yes, Shurooq, thank you very much [00:19:06] for all this information. Syria TV correspondent in Gaza. [00:19:09] غزه [00:19:19] Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baghaei confirmed that the exchange [00:19:22] of messages between Tehran and Washington continues through [00:19:25] intermediaries, noting that the United States [00:19:29] has made its decision. Baghaei [00:19:32] stated in press remarks that Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister [00:19:35] Gharib Abadi visited the Qatari capital, Doha, [00:19:39] to facilitate the exchange of messages with the American side, explaining that [00:19:43] the Iranian proposal was shortened and became implementable [00:19:46] within two days. Baghaei also said that the Strait [00:19:49] of Hormuz will not be safe unless the naval blockade is lifted [00:19:52] and Iranian demands [00:19:54] are met. [00:20:00] Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said that Tehran is committed to both [00:20:03] defense and diplomacy at the same time. Araqchi [00:20:07] added that the choice of either option depends on the extent of [00:20:11] the United States' rational analysis. Araqchi also noted [00:20:14] that ongoing consultations with the Qatari mediator have not yet [00:20:18] reached a final outcome, stressing that this [00:20:21] depends on the other side's response.
