[00:00:10] and of talks with Oman, Iran's foreign minister says his country is very [00:00:14] close to [00:00:14] of opening the straight of [00:00:16] of hormos. Hello and welcome [00:00:17] of of to TRT World, live from Istanbul, I'm Yashini Padiachi. [00:00:21] Also coming up, Russia attacks Kive and a [00:00:24] a military warehouse in the [00:00:26] of black of sea as the Serbian president voices support for Ukraine's. [00:00:30] of territorial integrity. a UNICEF report says [00:00:34] of Palestinian children in Gaza have born the brunt of Israeli attacks with [00:00:38] one child killed every day since the October cease [00:00:42] of fire. And the risk for children in Sudan is also [00:00:46] rising. A UN report warns at least 8 million children are [00:00:50] suffering due to the civilian [00:00:54] a war. [00:01:06] Iran and Oman remain positive on an outcome from their [00:01:09] talks to open the [00:01:10] of straight of Hormus. [00:01:12] of Oman has called the talks constructive while Iran's top diplomats says [00:01:16] they're headed in the right direction, but Iran's revolutionary guard [00:01:20] remains cautious saying commitments from the United States are [00:01:24] vital. Iran's foreign minister has repeated assessments that deal [00:01:28] with Oman is very close a new... shipping route through the critical [00:01:31] waterway. Abchi also says both sides were discussing [00:01:35] temporary routes for ships to pass [00:01:38] of through. The foreign minister says reopening the straight depends on different [00:01:41] conditions, among which is compensation for US [00:01:45] violations [00:01:46] of the memorandum of understanding. The IRGC says [00:01:49] current talks had nothing to do with the straight of hormus. A spokes [00:01:53] person says Iran can allow traffic to pass through if [00:01:57] Washington accepts [00:01:58] of all [00:01:58] of Tehran's conditions. such as lifting the blockade of its [00:02:02] ports. the [00:02:05] reopening [00:02:06] of the estate of hormos is in fact subject to conditions [00:02:10] said by the Islamic Republic of Iran and the straight will be [00:02:13] reopened on the basis of those conditions. that depends on the [00:02:17] extent to which the United [00:02:18] of States accepts the conditions determined by the Islamic Republic of [00:02:22] Iran. as I have said before, the straight of hormos is no longer [00:02:26] merely waterway for us, not merely economic [00:02:30] waterway, rather, it is capability and source of power that [00:02:34] the Islamic Republic of Iran possesses by virtue of its geography, [00:02:38] and it will make use of that [00:02:39] geography. [00:02:42] of Meanwhile, US media is reporting the chairman [00:02:44] of the joint Chiefs of staff Dan [00:02:47] in Kane, believes Washington needs to adopt a new strategy because air [00:02:51] strikes alone are unlikely to accomplish its goals. He [00:02:55] has discussed [00:02:55] of the possibility of an off ramp with other senior US [00:02:58] officials. Vice President JD van [00:03:01] says Washington and [00:03:03] in Tehron talks are ongoing and assurances have been given, no toll [00:03:07] will be charged from ships passing through the straight of Hormus. Calling [00:03:11] it [00:03:11] of a of game, Vants said Tehran remains desperate to end [00:03:15] the war. Speaking to Fox [00:03:18] of News, he said Washington will decide on the outcome once it gets a [00:03:21] clear picture of what offers on the table, and to see whether or [00:03:25] not, quote, things that are necessary for us to be happy, for us to feel [00:03:29] like gotten what we need out of this particular [00:03:32] engagement. we've destroyed their nuclear program, we've [00:03:36] destroyed their conventional military. we've radically reduced their what [00:03:40] you might call their asymmetric military abilities, and right now we're trying to [00:03:44] see if they're willing to make the kind of long-term changes that would [00:03:48] be necessary to have better relationship with the United States, and if not, [00:03:52] uh, that's fine too. we're just going to keep on applying the pressure that we can apply, [00:03:56] and getting as much oil and gas out [00:03:57] of the Middle East. Our North America correspondent [00:04:01] John Bray is in Washington DC with more [00:04:03] details. What is talking about the pressure [00:04:07] a being ramped up economically, [00:04:10] diplomatically and militarily, and [00:04:13] although his message does appear far more coherent than Donald [00:04:17] Trump. His optimism, just like the president's [00:04:21] doesn't seem to have any real basis uh as far as the evidence [00:04:25] goes from what we've seen and what we understand, and as you've been [00:04:28] explaining, the... Iranians are still claiming their [00:04:33] of of of influence over the straight of Hamos, their right to impose [00:04:36] tolls upon the straight, and there's even talk in that [00:04:40] agreement with a man about stopping US and Israeli [00:04:43] shipping from going through, now none of this will be acceptable to [00:04:47] the Americans, but JD Vance, just like Donald Trump, [00:04:51] insists that the Americans are directly negotiating with [00:04:54] Iran, and JD Vance [00:04:57] of basically implying that the Americans hold. all the [00:05:00] leverage, he [00:05:01] of says the nuclear capability has [00:05:04] of been destroyed, their military has been virtually [00:05:07] destroyed and they're suffering economically, so [00:05:11] of it's all a question about the American. now making sure they're [00:05:14] going to get what they want from this deal, but as I [00:05:18] say, uh, there's no clear message coming [00:05:22] from the Iranian side, which backs up the assertion that [00:05:26] JD Vance is giving, the vice president saying that we're at the [00:05:29] middle the game. Turkish foreign minister Hakan [00:05:33] Fedan says reaching the agreement on the Hormus straight [00:05:37] is now as international pressure for deal to be reached [00:05:40] intensifies. [00:06:12] we are close to reaching an agreement, however we see [00:06:16] that the decision making process within Iran could take some time due [00:06:20] to security concerns. At the moment, countries in the [00:06:24] region as well as the United States, Western Europe and [00:06:27] Asia are calling for the straight to be reopened as soon as [00:06:31] possible. There is considerable pressure to reach an agreement on this [00:06:35] issue. Our diplomatic correspondent Andrew [00:06:39] Hopkins is in Ankara. has been asked about what the [00:06:43] latest state of play is about the talk surrounding the straight of formers, [00:06:47] because obviously we've seen the last 24 hours or so, the United [00:06:50] States saying deal is close again, but we have been in the [00:06:54] situation several times already, and hakam fidan talking [00:06:58] to anadolo agency here in Turkey, he's saying that he [00:07:02] believes that talks are at an advanced stage, [00:07:06] however uh, he says there won't necessarily be [00:07:09] announcement imminently because the decision. making [00:07:13] process within Iran and that may take some time as well, [00:07:17] so it's not clear exactly when this agreement is going to [00:07:20] be finalized, whether it's going to be a question of few hours or [00:07:24] few days, but clearly lot of countries in the region and further field want to [00:07:28] see the straight of hormos opened because the [00:07:31] problems it's been causing to the international economy and the price of [00:07:35] fuel all around the world. A new deal [00:07:39] between Turkia, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan is committed. to them each [00:07:43] other's defense as fall out from the war on Iran prompts new concerns [00:07:47] around the region. The agreement was signed in Mecca and will see [00:07:50] closer military corporation and include a NATO style [00:07:54] collective defense clause, which means an attack on one will be [00:07:58] considered attack on all. The Turkish President says the [00:08:02] agreement reaffirms the right to self-defense as defined in the UN [00:08:06] charter. Erdogan explained it's not directed [00:08:10] against any country and is open. the participation of all [00:08:13] brotherly nations looking to promote peace, prosperity and stability in the [00:08:17] region. he said tokira will resolutely maintain its principal [00:08:21] stance on resolving conflicts and crises through dialogue and [00:08:25] diplomacy based on respect for international [00:08:28] law. the turkish foreign minister says the macca [00:08:31] defense agreement is not directed against any particular country as [00:08:35] long as its members are not attacked by actors from within or outside the [00:08:39] region. burada da yani b is a strong [00:08:43] determination to address or at least contain the instability in the [00:08:47] region and to improve the prosperity of its people through greater [00:08:51] economic and social integration. the intellectual [00:08:55] and conceptual groundwork and planning are already in [00:08:58] place. we are working on how implement these plans [00:09:02] institutionally. NATO's greatest deterrence is [00:09:05] its ability to develop defensive position. in other [00:09:09] words, the message is, if you attack me, prepared, I [00:09:13] have the military strength of such a large community behind me, [00:09:17] so do not test my strength. As result, I'm not [00:09:21] attacked, and within the region where I live, I can focus on [00:09:25] resolving political and economical problems, developing and [00:09:28] moving towards a more normal path. This is important [00:09:32] because violence, war and suffering are what stand in the way [00:09:36] of development. By strengthening your deterrence, you [00:09:40] help prevent that. Mehmed Chelik is the [00:09:43] editorial coordinator the Daily Suver publication. He explains [00:09:47] how the Mecca agreement is not an alternative to the NATO defense [00:09:51] pact. Nevertheless, when [00:09:54] we when we talk about attack and the countries demand some sort of [00:09:57] support, there will be different tiers to deal with. Do they need [00:10:01] intelligence, do they need let's say military equipment or [00:10:04] defense industry equipments or do they need an actual [00:10:08] all-out coordinated military support uh? [00:10:12] this these different tiers will be discussed, but I think one the the [00:10:16] common understanding is that this is not something that is [00:10:20] alternative to NATO, but it comes from vision that [00:10:24] seeks to at least for the region to own the problems and [00:10:27] own the solutions at the same time without [00:10:30] interference the third parties, especially when it comes to [00:10:34] collective defense, for I think, for for [00:10:38] very long time some the regional countries had dependent on [00:10:41] external powers for their defense, I think this [00:10:45] establishment will eliminate that reliability problem and [00:10:48] trust problem the third parties outside the region, nevertheless [00:10:52] when it comes to Turkia's position regarding so it has been [00:10:56] clear that of course [00:10:58] you know there is a there is [00:11:00] you know about [00:11:01] the article 5 issue this is going to how [00:11:04] you know this is going to be discussed how it will affect Turkia's position within [00:11:07] NATO but this is not this is one that is [00:11:11] defense motivated rather than an offensive [00:11:15] one so if Turkey is attacked for example Turkey will have [00:11:19] to defend itself through NATO or through this new establishment but if the [00:11:23] other countries attacked because Turkia is not part of [00:11:26] that, I mean because they are not part of NATO, Turkia [00:11:30] can still support those countries at different levels, if [00:11:34] Turkia is attack ultimately because of this problem, [00:11:37] again Turkey is a NATO country, and then it will [00:11:41] be discussed how NATO can support defending Turkia, when if [00:11:45] there isn't if there isn't a provoked [00:11:49] attack on Turkia um from from the neighboring countries, from [00:11:53] the region or from any other actors. the international from the [00:11:56] international community, then Turkia will have multi tier [00:12:00] defense mechanisms at place, one them will be this new [00:12:04] mechanism, but of course TK is part of NATO, that has to be also in place [00:12:07] as [00:12:08] well. [00:12:14] Serbian president Alexander Vuchit says his government will support [00:12:17] Ukraine's independence and seek to strengthen economic [00:12:21] cooperation between the two countries. Vladimir Zelensky is [00:12:25] making his first presidential visit to Serbia, [00:12:28] as Vuchic seeks to balance balgrades EU ambitions with its longstanding ties to [00:12:32] Russia. Vutic has condemned Moscow's invasion of Ukraine [00:12:36] but has refused to impose sanctions and remains heavily dependent on Russian [00:12:40] gas. We have now reached an [00:12:44] agreement with Trump that will grant the licenses, but just imagine if we had received them [00:12:48] four years ago. We would already be manufacturing patriots for [00:12:51] everyone. [00:12:55] want and would like to have patriots, anti-ballistic systems and [00:12:58] missiles would already have them all, i'm absolutely certain of [00:13:02] that, but right now we're stuck dealing with paperwork, [00:13:06] it is not a piece of paper flying through the air, not a paper [00:13:09] rockets, it's a real missile that kills people, and that is why [00:13:13] when we say the americans have to provide them, but the europeans too, [00:13:17] we are working it out with them, the process of some these licenses is [00:13:21] taken a long time, strikes have [00:13:25] killed a three-year-old boy and his grandparents a village in the Kive [00:13:29] region. Another person has been killed during an overnight attack on the [00:13:33] capital. Russia's defense ministry claimed its forces also [00:13:37] struck military warehouses containing communications and [00:13:40] electronic warfare equipment in the black sea port of [00:13:44] Odessa. And in the port of Nikolaiv Russian forces struck a cargo [00:13:47] vessel carrying military equipment and a warehouse storing weapons and military [00:13:51] supplies. The fighting has left regional powers concern. is now [00:13:55] calling that for both sides to stop strikes in the black [00:13:59] sea. authorities say fire at [00:14:03] the Ilskiy oil refinery in Russia's southern crasnodar region has been [00:14:07] extinguished. Russia's defense ministry said its air defences [00:14:11] destroy 397 Ukrainian drones over multiple [00:14:14] regions overnight. Ukrainian officials have [00:14:18] confirmed the strikes saying keive hit both the Illski and [00:14:22] Sirzan oil refineries causing fires at. both. Our [00:14:26] correspondent Joel Flynn reports from Keiv. I [00:14:29] think uh, in terms of what he was expecting from the the talks [00:14:33] and the discussions between Serbia and [00:14:36] Ukraine themselves, it was probably not an awful lot. The two have [00:14:40] regularly had meetings, indeed Vučić was in Ukraine just last [00:14:44] month, so this is not unusual in that regard, and we have heard [00:14:47] Zilinski talking up economic cooperation, they have mooted joint [00:14:51] development projects uh planned as well, things around energy. [00:14:55] infrastructure uh, but beyond that, of course, the question that Ukraine has at the [00:14:59] moment is specifically around defense, and we haven't heard anything about [00:15:02] how Serbia may or may not contribute to that in the future. What we [00:15:06] have heard from Zelinsky talking in Belgrade today is that the that the Ukrainians [00:15:10] have now secured a monthly deal to deliver patriot [00:15:13] interceptors from the United States. We don't know in [00:15:17] what quantities however, and that is key question for Ukraine as it [00:15:20] struggles under the volume of ballistic missile attacks that are hit. [00:15:25] Keeve and other parts the country a a weekly basis, [00:15:29] indeed on Tuesday we saw at least 17 people killed by huge [00:15:33] ballistic strike that hit the capital and other parts the country as [00:15:36] well. but this is not an insignificant for issue for [00:15:40] Ukraine at the moment and it is factoring into all the discussions that Zelinski is [00:15:44] having with all of his partners across Europe um how to [00:15:48] get interceptors and specifically these patriot [00:15:51] interceptors that aren't uh just not with coming not [00:15:55] forth coming in in Ukraine but are really in thin volumes right across [00:15:58] Europe as well we know that the United States has been heavily using them as result [00:16:02] of its war with Iran but how that factors into the broader question of [00:16:06] defense around and Ukraine is issue that is really [00:16:10] really the top level of discussions among [00:16:14] diplomats and among [00:16:14] leaders. High up in the [00:16:18] skies above Ukraine with not a person in sight, there is a battle [00:16:22] being waged. It is new stage of Kiev's conflict [00:16:26] with Russia, one that is pushing the frontiers of technology [00:16:30] and the economics of warfare. Yet the implications of this [00:16:34] fight for air superiority are on the ground. [00:16:40] few weapons have played as big role in Russia's war on Ukraine as the [00:16:44] Shahed, the long-range unmann Kamakazi drone has been a [00:16:47] scurge the skies for most the conflict, yet Ukraine [00:16:51] believes 2026 is seeing a shift in that [00:16:55] fight, [00:16:59] there was no fast drone that could reach and overtake a shahit, [00:17:03] patriots are expensive, this is more affordable than missile. [00:17:11] This is the sting a UAV developed by Ukrainian defense firm [00:17:15] Wild Hornets. The company says sting has down [00:17:18] thousands of Russian Shaheads since entering regular service last [00:17:22] year. This isn't just about technology, it is about [00:17:26] altering the economics of warfare. These things are smaller, [00:17:30] they are cheaper, they are more scalable. They can't stop ballistic missiles, but [00:17:34] Ukraine believes this is how it alters the balance of. power [00:17:37] against drones in its skies, but systems like these cannot stop the [00:17:41] ballistic missiles that have killed dozens across Ukraine over the [00:17:45] last week. President Vladimir Zelinsky has said that without new [00:17:48] interceptors, specifically US patriots, it is unable [00:17:52] to stop them. yet in exclusive comments to TRT World, [00:17:56] Ukrainian drone maker fire point claims it may have another [00:18:00] answer, involving its long-range attack drone, the FP1. [00:18:04] We need a sarling connectivity over. [00:18:08] "if we had this, we could destroy all the launchers for ballistic [00:18:11] missiles. you are saying that if Elon Musk gave you permission to [00:18:15] use Starlink over Russian territory that you could stop all [00:18:19] ballistic missiles from coming in to Ukraine, yes, we already [00:18:23] have all the instruments for this. I think any way we need to [00:18:26] also provide anti-ballistic capabilities, but if we're talking [00:18:30] about plug in place solution. Yes, this is the most crucial change [00:18:34] that could happen in the moment. If the claim..." correct, it [00:18:38] would shift the equation of Ukraine's ballistic defense from one of [00:18:41] scarce interceptors towards one of offensive reach and [00:18:45] political. Zelinski is currently in negotiations [00:18:49] over patriot interceptors with the US and has also asked President [00:18:53] Donald Trump about using Starlink over Russian [00:18:56] territory. The battle in Ukraine's skies may be [00:19:00] determining the next stage in this war, get it is discussions in the [00:19:04] political halls of power that could yet decide its future. [00:19:08] Joe Flin, TRT World in Keyev. Almost 10 [00:19:12] months have passed since the cease fire in Gaza, but humanitarian [00:19:16] conditions remain dire. There have been nearly 60,000 [00:19:19] cases of chicken poox, while thousands of cancer patients are [00:19:23] unable to access proper treatment. TRT Worlds Ashif Shannon [00:19:27] reports from Gaza City. Extremely difficult [00:19:31] conditions, especially for cancer patients and other other patients in [00:19:35] Gaza as well. I mean, they they... human rights center [00:19:38] says that around four people die daily because of of [00:19:42] cancer complications and mid the lack of special chemicals [00:19:45] and and equipment needed [00:19:48] to [00:19:51] treat [00:19:53] the the cancer patients and [00:19:55] also the same time there is also [00:19:59] cute shortage of of medicines and surgical supplies and medical [00:20:02] equipment at mid the spread the rapid spread [00:20:06] of of chicken box and a strip some 60,00 cases, nearly [00:20:10] half them and conunis in southern Gaza, especially [00:20:14] in the Mawasi, the biggest humanitarian zone in the Gaza [00:20:17] strip, I mean Sudan had Famin several times, [00:20:21] Gaza suffered famin back in August [00:20:25] of of last year, thousands of [00:20:28] children lost their lost their their fathers [00:20:32] during the war, uh many them forced to uh you [00:20:36] know to [00:20:37] take the... to assume the role of of bread winners [00:20:40] and uh very heartbreaking when you look [00:20:44] at the child for example age of my child or my [00:20:47] grandchild you know trying to uh to in the living and we have more [00:20:51] in the following report. [00:20:54] after more than nine months of seas fire which exists and name only [00:20:58] many families in Gaza remained displaced and without a stable source [00:21:02] of income. according to UNICEF, more than 56,00 [00:21:06] children have lost one of both parents or primary [00:21:10] caregivers during Israel's war on the enclave, while [00:21:14] hundreds of thousands continue to face severe disruptions to their [00:21:18] education and daily lives. For many these families, the [00:21:22] death of father has meant the loss the household's only [00:21:26] bread winner, forcing children to shoulder responsibilities [00:21:29] far beyond their years. One them is 13 year [00:21:33] old Karim Abuf. Instead of carrying school books, [00:21:37] Kariem sells chilled water in his camp, using a small [00:21:41] solar powered cooler, he turns simple idea into [00:21:45] a way to support his family. My father was killed during the [00:21:49] war so I hit. to help my family, my grandparents and everyone who depends [00:21:53] on me, i am the only one supporting them, i collect food from [00:21:57] the community kitchen and provide for my family, i have to leave [00:22:00] school because no longer have time to study, other children are still in [00:22:04] school, but i was forced to give up my education to help my family. [00:22:08] is restrictions on humanitarian aid have also left families with [00:22:12] increasingly limited [00:22:13] options. i a mother of four [00:22:17] children and since my husband's de "we have had no [00:22:21] source of income. Karim, my elder son, has taken on [00:22:25] the responsibility of supporting his younger siblings. for thousands [00:22:29] of children in Gaza, the seasfire has not brought an end to [00:22:32] hardship. nine months on, families are still facing [00:22:35] displacement, poverty, and the pain of losing loved [00:22:38] ones. 10-year old Muhammad Abdul Salam [00:22:42] now spends his days working a traditional clay oven instead [00:22:46] of attending school across Gaza's displacement. [00:22:55] We have no source of income and no money to rely on, so I had to [00:22:59] send my son to work at the clay oven here in the camp, even [00:23:03] if he earns $2 a day, it helps us buy vegetables and [00:23:06] basic food. I'm responsible for six family members and [00:23:10] Muhammad, my eldest son, is the one helping provide for our [00:23:13] family. With more than [00:23:15] 637,00 children out of formal education. [00:23:20] Many are losing not only their classrooms, but the chance to [00:23:23] experience normal childhood. Ashraf [00:23:27] Shanan, TRT World, Gaza. [00:23:30] Demonstrations are being held in Tel Aviv, part the weekly anti-government [00:23:34] protests against Benjamin Netanyao's administration and again [00:23:38] settle of violence in the occupied West Bank. Our correspondent [00:23:42] Mohammed Al-Kassim reports from those demonstrations. [00:23:45] Well, tonight feels different in Tel Aviv, another demonstration [00:23:49] and [00:23:58] It's time and this is one the reasons why many the protesters [00:24:02] here tonight have been carrying signs that says [00:24:06] save Israel with the date the elections to october [00:24:09] 27th is on them as if to [00:24:11] uh message everyone that the [00:24:14] countdown has started now for months these protests [00:24:18] were according to. [00:24:58] a political countdown of some sort. Netanyahu has [00:25:01] been struggling in the polls, he's been losing to his [00:25:05] main contender, a former Israeli military [00:25:09] chief of staff, his yasar party has been doing very [00:25:13] well, and Netanyahu is fighting for his political [00:25:17] survival come october 20. [00:25:28] either do something about about convincing his right base that [00:25:32] he is the right answer, but even that is [00:25:35] fractured and his opposition is gaining ground on [00:25:39] him. the UN has once again raised the alarm over [00:25:43] the impact of Sudan's war on children, warning the country [00:25:47] risks losing an entire generation to the... conflict, the [00:25:51] UN says at least 8 million school aged children are currently [00:25:55] away from their classrooms. Since 2024, the [00:25:58] UN has documented more than 150 schools being [00:26:02] used for military purposes while at least 67 have been [00:26:06] attacked. the crisis is particularly severe in [00:26:10] Darfur, where nearly three quarters of schools have been destroyed or [00:26:13] rendered unusable since the war began. the region [00:26:17] includes Alfasher, one the main centers the [00:26:20] conflict. after more than 1200 days of war, nearly half [00:26:24] of Sudan's teachers have gone without salaries, but many [00:26:28] continued to teach under extremely difficult [00:26:31] conditions. [00:26:33] predominantly rsf, that is, they more than any [00:26:37] other group that are [00:26:40] most likely to actually attack villages and civilian [00:26:43] populations either in revenge or as [00:26:47] means to determine equation in which they want [00:26:51] to have an upper hand for the moment, this is effectively [00:26:54] national army that split nearly [00:26:57] 50/50 except with one group that has got a tendency [00:27:00] almost of being an equivalent [00:27:04] of a terror group in their own nation state, but [00:27:08] backed by powerful wealthy nation in [00:27:12] United Arab Emirates and backed by huge amount [00:27:15] of money, sufficiently well trained and well [00:27:19] equipped determined guys were almost driven by [00:27:22] sort of like material gain and power, not [00:27:26] necessarily ideology, but with impunity and it makes [00:27:30] it extremely grows. remember this is not [00:27:34] a conflict that you could confine to only four [00:27:37] years, prior to the four years, there was a more than a [00:27:41] generation of conflicts in Darfu, part [00:27:44] of which was basically effective war of genocide, and I [00:27:47] know young teachers on the continent in [00:27:51] non direct conflict situations who go without pay, but they wake [00:27:55] up and continue to go, so credit to teachers, but in the Sudanese [00:27:58] aspect, there is no alternative, part the other is bit of [00:28:02] hope that you just [00:28:04] have to keep going. I'll have your headlines [00:28:07] next. [00:29:13] Intuitive, inclusive, informative from [00:29:17] the remotest reaches to the teaming metropolises, [00:29:21] the world is one click [00:29:23] away, [00:29:27] the facts and opinions, these people are playing politics with [00:29:31] public safety, and the nuance, they all collide in the [00:29:34] nexus. there is nothing denying about illegal human smuggling. we look at the [00:29:38] story, how it's being told, who benefits, what others are [00:29:42] leaving out, and why? it's always the elites who ask for it and the ordinary people [00:29:46] who pay for it. we're all you need to know, nexus on TRT [00:29:49] World. [00:30:03] You're watching TRT World, I'm Yashini Padiachi with the reminder of our main [00:30:07] headlines. Iran's foreign minister says Terran and Oman [00:30:11] are very close to deal a new shipping route through the straight of [00:30:14] Hormus with technical and legal issues largely [00:30:17] resolved. Iran's revolutionary guard also issued a stark [00:30:21] warning saying Tehran can allow traffic to pass through [00:30:25] if the US accepts all of its conditions like lifting the [00:30:29] bloccade of its ports. [00:30:32] reopening the straight of hormos is in fact subject to [00:30:35] conditions said by the Islamic Republic of Iran and the [00:30:39] straight will be reopened on the basis of those conditions, that [00:30:43] depends on the extent to which the United States accepts the [00:30:46] conditions determined by the Islamic Republic of [00:30:49] Iran. Vice President JD van says the [00:30:53] US and Iran
