India's youth led Cockroach movement says they [00:00:53] will continue protests [00:00:55] of demanding the election commissioner [00:00:58] in in resigns. [00:01:13] of of of of [00:01:14] of Saudi Arabia is shutting down schools in the capital [00:01:18] as it decides how to respond to a missile attack on the main [00:01:22] airport. [00:01:23] of 12 people were killed and more than 300 injured [00:01:26] in a Saturday strike that threatens to further inflame [00:01:29] a region. already on edge over the US war on Iran. [00:01:33] Domestic terminals at King colored international airport were hit with [00:01:37] Saudi Arabia blaming from neighboring [00:01:45] Arabia has been hit hard, deep inside its [00:01:48] territory. There was panic inside the domestic terminals of [00:01:52] King Khalid International airport in Riyad after it [00:01:56] was track by a missile on Saturday afternoon. The south. led [00:02:00] military coalition describes what happened as a war [00:02:04] crime, vowing, decisive response. [00:02:07] A projectile also landed near King Fahad international airport [00:02:11] in Damasmam. The Saudis [00:02:15] of blame the Hutis from neighboring Yaman for the [00:02:18] attacks. The UN secretary general also pointed the [00:02:22] finger at the group. Antonio gutieres [00:02:26] demanded that the attack stop immediately. [00:02:30] "the Iran-backed group said it carried out separate strikes on [00:02:34] Riyad's main airport on [00:02:36] in Thursday, killing three people and damaging an [00:02:39] aircraft, but they haven't claimed responsibility for [00:02:42] Saturday's strike. Hours before, the [00:02:46] Hutis had said they were prepared to take [00:02:50] of reciprocal steps with Saudi Arabia to keep airports, [00:02:53] seaports and other civilian facilities used for [00:02:56] humanitarian purposes out [00:02:59] of the expanded. confrontation, the question now [00:03:03] is whether or not the US will respond to Saudi calls to join [00:03:08] of in, i think it's terrible, [00:03:10] of well you're going to find out, see, but i think it's [00:03:13] terrible, [00:03:18] well they're able to defend, look, the saudis are good [00:03:21] of fighters, but i think the attack was terrible thing, the [00:03:24] his have already put pressure on Saudi [00:03:27] of Arabia through their control [00:03:29] of the babel. straight through which much of [00:03:33] Saudi Arabia's oil exports are [00:03:35] shipped, but in the past week, the Yemani [00:03:39] government forces, backed by Saudi Arabia, have [00:03:43] made some progress in pushing back the Huti [00:03:46] advance. They claimed on Saturday to have killed more [00:03:50] than 1,400 Huti fighters in [00:03:54] 24 hours. The next move could [00:03:57] determine not only the state of this conflict. [00:04:01] of [00:04:05] of [00:04:09] and Mohammed Alatab filed this report from the yemini capital [00:04:14] in sana so far the military spokes person [00:04:17] hasn't talked during his latest pressers about the [00:04:21] latest attacks on riyadh but previously they have [00:04:25] reated their [00:04:27] warnings for fly. and [00:04:30] also the people who are using the air space [00:04:33] of the Saudi Arabia, accepted for the Medina and Mecca, they said that [00:04:37] they wouldn't attack airports in in Makkah and Madina, but also [00:04:41] they have won of using the airports of Saudi Arabia and also [00:04:45] it's air space throughout the the the Saudi kingdom, [00:04:49] so we are talking about this equation that have been [00:04:53] of issued retated by the His from the beginning [00:04:56] of the leaders escalation, they are the going to uh take this [00:05:00] blocade for blockade and also escalation for [00:05:04] escalation, so we are what we are witnessing that this is an [00:05:07] indication that the the the the escalation between the Saudi [00:05:11] Arabia and Also the internationally recognized government has come has [00:05:15] cross so so many lines that we are talking about the now we [00:05:19] civilians are being attacked in different areas especially in Yemen and [00:05:23] also in Saudi Arabia so far many observers hope that the [00:05:26] the these latest escalation could be descalated by [00:05:30] the international international diplomacy especially as [00:05:34] the price is the civilians are paying the price [00:05:38] of such development so we are talking about this developments and [00:05:42] the the according the to the spokes person the internationally recognized [00:05:46] government majd [00:05:48] he mentioned that they have inflicted heavy losses on the hy fighters [00:05:51] especially and when they have tried to advance towards what he [00:05:55] described the airport of dabab and also they have mentioned that [00:05:59] they have carried out nearly [00:06:01] 1900 operations which is which [00:06:05] is in the concesest of yeman's done according to his [00:06:08] words to pakistan now a state of emergency has [00:06:12] been imposed in the province of Pactunqua. In the past [00:06:15] hour, there are also reports that the head of that provincial government has been [00:06:19] arrested. The province is in the stronghold the PTI [00:06:23] party of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Main [00:06:27] roads in the city of Peshawar have been blocked with shipping [00:06:30] containers, and the mobile network is also reported to have [00:06:34] been cut. The move comes just days after marches [00:06:38] by Khan supporters who had wanted to march to the capital. [00:06:42] Let's head live now to Islamabad where Camron Yusuf [00:06:46] is standing by for us. Camron, break this this all down for us, [00:06:50] why have authorities declared a state of emergency in this particular [00:06:54] province? [00:06:58] Well, Khakhtankha province is the [00:07:02] only province where opposition Pakistan tahrik or the party of former [00:07:06] Prime Minister Imran Khan who is currently in [00:07:09] jail was ruling. problems [00:07:13] and the tension between the center and the Khaiber government has been [00:07:16] growing for some time from on how [00:07:20] to deal with the security situation. it is worth noting here that [00:07:23] khaibar province shares border with afghanistan and it has seen [00:07:27] a surge in terrorist attacks and [00:07:31] according to the federal government, the KP government was not [00:07:35] cooperating to deal with this terror threat. in [00:07:38] fact when the federal government federal cabinet today an [00:07:42] emergency. meeting decided to impose emergency and a governor [00:07:45] rule, they particularly chargeat the KP [00:07:49] government by saying that the KP government [00:07:52] deliberately disengaged from fighting [00:07:56] terrorism and hence created a situation where the government was [00:08:00] left with other option but to take charge, but [00:08:03] this would also be seen in the context of [00:08:07] ongoing political tension because the party of former prime minister Imran [00:08:11] Khan has launched. campaign to seek his release and [00:08:15] last week they have started their campaign from the KP [00:08:18] province, so many experts believe that federal [00:08:21] government this move was [00:08:25] trying to deter protesters to come to [00:08:47] Donald Trump says it's time for Ukraine to get new president. [00:08:51] It follows criticism from his Ukrainian counterpart a US [00:08:55] diesel deal with Russia. Vladimir Zelensky has called the [00:08:58] move weak and warned it will only help Russia's war. The [00:09:02] deal is expected to lead to the immediate release of more than [00:09:05] 300,000 tons of Russian diesel with more to come [00:09:09] in the in the months ahead. Trump is... trying to drive [00:09:13] down record diesel prices in the U.S. ahead of next month's [00:09:17] mid-term elections. Well, I think he should have an [00:09:20] election, and uh, he could have settled this thing many times. Well, [00:09:24] I think that Russia would like to make deal, [00:09:28] and we've had it back and forth, but Russia would like to make [00:09:32] deal, but uh, as I said, this is something that could have [00:09:36] been solved many times, but for whatever [00:09:40] reason Zelinski does not want to make deal. [00:09:43] Leoni lakani has more from Washington [00:09:46] DC: what we're seeing Trump do is [00:09:50] essentially try and shift the blame uh from himself and [00:09:54] from the White House in the administration for the higher diesel and oil [00:09:57] prices that we're seeing around the world, especially here in the United States. [00:10:01] And we've been hearing him say these kinds of things recently in campaign [00:10:05] rallies. He's trying to blame Ukraine and Zelensky for these [00:10:09] higher prices that we're seeing uh and when you talk to oil. analysts, they [00:10:13] say yes, of course uh [00:10:14] the Ukraine Russia war does impact prices, but the bigger [00:10:18] issue is the fact that supplies have been essentially [00:10:22] brought almost to a standsil from [00:10:24] the street of Herm. which would point fingers once again at the [00:10:27] administration in the Iran war, and so what we hear Trump do [00:10:30] repeatedly, especially in recent weeks is trying blame Ukraine [00:10:34] and Zelensky for it uh, and the types of actions we've seen [00:10:38] him do in the past few weeks shows that he's actually quite concerned [00:10:42] about these prices, diesel prices uh in the US are up [00:10:46] nearly 75% since the war began uh and [00:10:50] this really impacts the heartlands of America, the farming, [00:10:53] agricultural parts, the country that are very important part of [00:10:57] Trump's base uh and in recent weeks we've seen him [00:11:00] taking quite a few drastic actions so last month [00:11:04] US congress passed bill that essentially widened the [00:11:08] sanctions on Russia, not just that Trump came out and [00:11:11] criticized Europeans who were still buying oil from Russia [00:11:15] uh and then he makes his about turn making making this [00:11:19] diesel uh deal with Russia in the past [00:11:22] day um addition to that he's has [00:11:25] threatened the Europeans, he threatened to ban American [00:11:29] exports of diesel to the Europe, and uh, [00:11:33] Europeans responded by releasing some their stock piles, trying to [00:11:37] add supply to the market, which is what Trump wanted. um, he's [00:11:40] even waved a fuel tax a different type of diesel in the country to [00:11:44] try and add supplies. the problem with all of this at the moment is [00:11:48] nothing is really shifting the prices and so all these kinds of [00:11:52] measures and all these kinds of uh comments we're hearing from Trump [00:11:56] just shows that he's a little bit uh desperate [00:12:00] and also just very concerned about what's happening with the prices and he [00:12:03] knows that voters are paying attention. [00:12:07] Israeli strikes have hit Gaza with der albala and [00:12:10] Gaza City among the areas targeted. at least five [00:12:14] Palestinians were killed and eight wounded when an Israeli strike [00:12:18] hit a gathering of civilians in Gaza City on Saturday, [00:12:21] while Israeli attacks killed two other people in separate [00:12:25] incidents earlier, at least six people were injured by [00:12:28] Israeli gunis, according to medical sources [00:12:31] there, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed since the [00:12:35] cice fire took effect in October last year. Ashraf [00:12:39] Shanan has more from Gaza City. [00:12:42] over the last 24 hours at least six people have lost their lives [00:12:46] including four people here, not far from [00:12:50] where I'm standing, few hundred meters just [00:12:54] west from. here in the western part of Gaza City, I [00:12:58] also one more person was killed in a naf [00:13:02] area [00:13:02] in in Gaza City, both both were drone attacks, when you talk [00:13:06] about a drone attack not necessarily single rocket, sometimes they [00:13:10] fire six or eight rockets to make sure someone [00:13:14] was uh the to make sure they confirmed the kill, similar [00:13:18] to what happened later yesterday in magazi in in [00:13:22] central gaza on saladin road video and just show a [00:13:26] wounded man on the street and then another rocket executing him [00:13:30] making sure the confirmation the kill, as far [00:13:33] as Israel is concerned, they they have calloss [00:13:37] disregard for the value human life when it [00:13:41] comes uh to palestinian life, these tents, tens of [00:13:45] thousands of hundreds of thousands them, they warn out, we're [00:13:48] talking, we've just entered few days ago, the fourth [00:13:51] year the war, those things [00:13:54] you know the... the the purpose of of of making them [00:13:58] is you know to have temporary shelter a month to two maximum three months, [00:14:02] but you're not supposed to endure winters. we're talking about the [00:14:06] fourth winter, this what is the fourth winter since uh [00:14:10] since uh since 2023, unfortunately [00:14:14] Israel is not allowing shelter shelter equipment and including tents [00:14:17] and other materials needed to help people prepare because as I [00:14:21] said they have callous disregard for the value of life when it comes to... Palestinians [00:14:25] and we have more the following [00:14:27] report. Amil [00:14:30] harazin is a word man with what could be very harsh [00:14:34] winter around the corner. He's deeply concerned for [00:14:38] his family who live a tent. I'm trying to [00:14:42] secure my tent. I have newborn baby who is less than a week old [00:14:46] and three young children. Last year we suffered badly when a storm [00:14:49] hit, so I need to be prepared this time. This [00:14:53] year the conditions could be. much worse for the people in Gaza [00:14:57] already suffering due to Israel's devastating war on the [00:15:00] strip, for families living and fragile shelters, even [00:15:04] basic preparations may not be enough, war damaged homes [00:15:08] and obliterated infrastructure leave many displacement [00:15:12] sites vulnerable to flooding as well as [00:15:15] collapse, we've heard that very [00:15:18] powerful storm may be coming our way, it could destroy homes, let [00:15:22] alone tents, we put our trust in. "my tent is [00:15:26] so fragile that even a light storm could destroy it, [00:15:30] imagine what this storm could do, the storm he's [00:15:33] referring to is the elninu weather phenomena. [00:15:37] Scientists are warning about its catastrophic effects which could [00:15:41] settle firmly by December, and in Gaza, its [00:15:45] repercussions could make life even worse. According to the [00:15:49] International Organization for migration, IOM, around [00:15:53] 1.8 million people are living in displacement sites [00:15:56] across the wartorn territory. More than 80% [00:16:00] the tents and makeshift shelters are in poor [00:16:04] condition, while only 17% of winter shelter. [00:16:07] needs have been met, we're dreading the [00:16:11] winter as well as the storm, the rain could flood our tents, [00:16:15] leaking in from above and sweeping in from [00:16:18] below. we have almost nothing to protect ourselves with. we [00:16:22] lie awake at night, worried about the rain and the strong [00:16:25] winds. there is no end to the suffering. with [00:16:29] little protection from the rain, families fear the destruction the [00:16:33] shelters and the exposure to the cold. [00:16:37] Palestinians prepared to face another harsh winter, they brace themselves for the [00:16:41] worst, and mid Israel's refusal to allow adequate shelter [00:16:44] material. Ashraf Shanan, TRT World, [00:16:48] Gaza. At the UN General Assembly, Benjamin [00:16:51] Netanyahu claimed Israel is the one place in the Middle East where [00:16:55] Christianity is thriving, but Palestinian Christian [00:16:59] leaders say he's lying. Our correspondant Muhammad El Kasim reports from [00:17:03] occupied east Jerusalem and occupied West Bank [00:17:06] where attacks. rising and ancient community is under [00:17:10] threat. [00:17:14] Beyond these walls, the Christian presence in the holy land is [00:17:18] shrinking faster than almost anywhere else in the region. [00:17:22] We're facing a system, an oppressive system that is [00:17:25] creating life circumstances that are simply not livable, and this is [00:17:29] what they're saying, they're not hiding their intentions. The [00:17:33] number of checkpoints, the restrictions in our movements, the... [00:17:37] fear that many Christians fear in the villages like all Palestinians from the settler [00:17:41] attacks and knowing that there is no accountability, [00:17:45] this is the holiest site in Christianity built on the [00:17:48] spot where Christians believe Jesus was crucified and rose [00:17:52] again, yet even on their holiest days, Palestinian [00:17:56] Christians often struggle just to reach it, hemmed [00:18:00] in by restrictions imposed by the Israeli authorities [00:18:04] in the very city where their faith began. [00:18:08] "security footage has captured some of it directly, a French non [00:18:12] shoved and kicked near the last supper side, an illegal settler [00:18:15] spitting at the entrance of an Armenian monastery. I think [00:18:19] there's the Israeli government has [00:18:22] taken such a extremist far right position [00:18:26] where it wants to see an exclusive Jewish state, and that [00:18:30] means as many Jews as possible in the land as and as [00:18:34] many uh non- Jews outside. [00:18:39] just 30 km to the north, that pressure takes a very [00:18:43] different form, is home to roughly 1200 [00:18:47] people, nearly all them christian, today its [00:18:50] residents are packing up and moving out, motivation is to [00:18:54] occupied more land, to occupied more land from [00:18:58] palestinians, to create the kingdom of Israel or [00:19:02] the state of Judah, [00:19:06] to to make lot of... they are terrorists and [00:19:09] yet at the United Nations, very different picture was [00:19:13] painted on Christians, [00:19:15] you know that their numbers are plummeting everywhere in the middle [00:19:19] east where they're being persecuted and hounded, except one [00:19:22] place, my country Israel where the Christian community is [00:19:26] growing, thriving, succeeding, we're still not able [00:19:30] to go worship freely in Jerusalem, taiba is still under [00:19:34] attack, who is he fooling and the fact that [00:19:37] the world allows him as a war criminal to stand in such a stage [00:19:41] and spew this lies is truly [00:19:44] shameful. if anybody wants to know what's happening to palestinian [00:19:48] christians, they can talk to us and not listen to liar like [00:19:51] Netanyahu. for palestinian Christian leaders, the issue is no [00:19:55] longer simply protecting individual churches. it's whether [00:19:59] Christianity can maintain a viable presence in the land [00:20:03] where it began. muhammad, TRT [00:20:06] World, is [00:20:08] Jerusalem [00:20:15] to India now where the cockroach protest movement leader Abujit [00:20:19] Dipki has been released from detention with two other senior [00:20:23] senior leaders on Sunday. They were arrested on Saturday along [00:20:27] with thousands of others who took to the streets calling for the resignation the [00:20:30] country's election chief.

The [00:20:45] UN has expressed concern and urged authorities to respect the [00:20:49] right. massive [00:20:50] demonstrators. we want [00:20:54] to tell this government that we are not scared of your dictorial [00:20:57] actions. the way this government responded today, it shows that [00:21:01] it is scared the public and it is like we have one half [00:21:05] of our battle. the government would be feeling that the protest would end [00:21:09] today if they detained us, but this is new beginning of our [00:21:13] protest. the protest will continue until Ganesh [00:21:16] Kumar resigns and no matter. How many [00:21:20] people they detained today? We will come back tomorrow and march [00:21:24] towards the jantar mantrar and our protest will continue till [00:21:28] Gayanish Kumar resigns.
