00:00:00when the daily warning let me tell you. is issued three or four times, then they say
00:00:04it wasn't a real warning. The Israelis,
00:00:08for example, claimed this morning that a drone was heading
00:00:11towards Galilee or northern occupied Palestine.
00:00:14Then it was denied. In short,
00:00:17they said they were searching for hours from dawn to morning for what
00:00:21it was. Yes, this is preparation for military action. We have seen this
00:00:24in experience. In fact, this program by the Zionists, yes, the Israelis, when they want
00:00:28to carry out military action.
00:00:34access. Around the end of
00:00:41This preparation is clear and I don't
00:00:44think there is any concern about that group, this vehicle that
00:00:48was on the
00:00:50Syrian border, they were Syrians, not Lebanese, but they said this
00:00:54is part of the Syrian resistance groups that are active in the Golan
00:00:58and are supported by Iran.
00:01:02it appears that
00:01:30Given that we are gradually approaching the cold season,
00:01:33Mr. Fadlallah, the representative of Hezbollah
00:01:37groups and blocs of in the Lebanese Parliament, said that we will soon
00:01:40announce our plans for organizing the affairs
00:01:43of the displaced. Do you have any specific information about what
00:01:47is going to happen? There are two main goals for Hezbollah at
00:01:50this stage. First, a ceasefire should be implemented
00:01:54and Israel should stop its aggressions. The second point, and
00:01:58it is very important, is to reach
00:02:00the displaced people.
00:02:03600,000 displaced people are still there. Some are in houses, some
00:02:07are in tents, and there is a serious problem.
00:02:12United for Peace. They held a And this is used as a card, meaning the opponents of Hezbollah and the resistance
00:02:16are taking advantage of it. They say to the public that these displaced people
00:02:19are no longer being provided with security. Hezbollah is under a
00:02:24complicity, with the use of financial siege. No, meaning
00:02:28of America, of financial aid is not reaching them. However, Hezbollah has been able to, in recent
00:02:31months, through philanthropists in the region,
00:02:36allies in the Middle East and one of money has reached Hezbollah, and what I said
00:02:38later, Hezbollah, that money has not reached them, is a rumor and so on. No, Hezbollah has announced
00:02:42that Mr. Fadlallah, as you mentioned, the representative of Hezbollah, announced that
00:02:46in the coming weeks, this
00:02:48plan for the displaced will be implemented, which will greatly help
00:02:52the situation of the displaced.
00:02:55The issue of providing housing, more housing and renting houses.
00:02:59One. Part of the houses they prepared are ready-made
00:03:02houses for the part that is in Lebanon.
00:03:05Do you mean prefabricated houses? Houses, prefabricated
00:03:09houses, and second, the rent of some
00:03:14emotion in houses. Many families have been paying rent for 3 years without
00:03:16a house. They have a serious problem. This
00:03:22mask of aid in this regard. Sheikh Naim Qassem has announced this issue again that we have a plan for the displaced in the
00:03:26near future. In the coming days, there was work, next week officially.
00:03:36What exactly has been the role of the government in helping the displaced from the beginning of the war or after the war until now,
00:03:39and where has it led? Thank you very much, Mr. Damas. And thank you,
00:03:43dear viewers, for staying with us. May you be well, goodbye.
00:03:47باشید ترتون سالم خداحافظ.
00:04:44Sentinel, and at the time it's one of
00:05:03At least in the past year, alongside the army and the IRGC, they have not
00:05:06spared their lives for Iran. For example, in the December
00:05:10coup, they surround four policemen in the square,
00:05:13kill them
00:05:16with knives and machetes, butcher them,
00:05:19and burn them alive.
00:05:21In the recent imposed war,
00:05:25the enemy, in its naive imagination, was supposed to,
00:05:28according to a calculated plan, shatter this strong pillar of Iran's security
00:05:32by attacking police headquarters.
00:05:34The result was these memorial
00:05:38images. Despite the main building being
00:05:42hit by an enemy missile,
00:05:45service to the people has not stopped.
00:05:49These images and the performance of the police in the past year
00:05:52remind us that the command of the Islamic Republic of Iran's police
00:05:56is not dependent on headquarters and buildings. Our home is Kianshahr.
00:05:59They hit our police station in our area, but
00:06:03they didn't abandon security. They didn't let go.
00:06:06They are preserving the people's security with their blood. It's true that the building was destroyed,
00:06:09but the connection between the people and the police...
00:08:12I arrange
00:08:15a pattern by color with cards, then I cover it,
00:08:18then the children with the cards they have must arrange
00:08:22that pattern in 5 seconds. A game, but what a game!
00:08:25Introduction of Iranian heroes,
00:08:28heroes, heroes of resistance. We have placed a symbol like Jihad Mugniyah,
00:08:32Abu Mahdi al-Mohandis, for example, a very good personality, Qasem
00:08:35Soleimani.
00:08:37Goodbye.
00:08:44Behind these cards, in short, their biography or
00:08:48on them, like their age and the time of their martyrdom
00:08:51and the type of work they did, and now the children have chosen
00:08:55a role model for themselves: Commander Hajizadeh,
00:08:58Ebrahim Hadi, Martyr Fakirzadeh, Martyr Tanisiri
00:09:01Tehrani, Maqdad Ebrahim Zolfaghari. What did we learn
00:09:04from Hajj Qasem? We learn to be kind to others
00:09:07and to strike fear into the hearts of the enemies of Morteza
00:09:11Ali and Iran. Respect for parents.
00:09:14A game
00:09:17that was not only about heroes.
00:09:20We also introduced missile, military, nuclear
00:09:24and even scientific achievements of our martyrs alongside it.
00:09:27Fatah, Allah, the flag
00:09:31is high, high, O witness, and O
00:09:34Fatah, the flag is high, high.
00:09:37A few fields away, for the children of Iran
00:09:41to become heroes.
00:10:14What would you do for Iran? I would engineer missiles. I would do whatever I can
00:10:18for my country to bring honor. I want
00:10:21to fix it this way and teach other children in the future.
00:10:27Why are you teaching now? Because it's necessary now to strengthen myself for the future.
00:10:31This is a Simorgh missile, and this missile works like a boomerang,
00:10:34returning to the sender. We teach several types of missiles to children.
00:10:38First, we teach 7 models of paper missiles. If they can make
00:10:42paper missiles well, they move on to foam gliders,
00:10:45then to building water rockets. After learning how to make these water rockets, the selected
00:10:49ones go to a camp where they are taught to fly
00:10:53radio-controlled airplanes.
00:11:55I would give the police force about 80 out of
00:11:5820. We give them 20 out of 20. Really, they deserve a very high score. They truly
00:12:02deserve a score of 20 out of 20.
00:12:03In recent
00:12:06months, during the period from the days before intensified
00:12:10tension to the escalation of direct confrontation,
00:12:13the police force underwent a different test, not only as a
00:12:17judicial officer, but also as a pillar of social stability.
00:12:20The most important criterion is this security that we have had during this period,
00:12:24especially
00:12:31during the second and
00:12:35third imposed wars, they were truly present in the field
00:12:38alongside all our armed forces, and they truly did
00:12:42a great job, beyond their specified
00:12:45and assigned duties. They truly shone
00:12:48in their positions. They came earlier than us, they left later than us,
00:12:52and they were committed to the field and the revolution. The issue is
00:14:01F four. two one.
00:14:04Let's
00:14:06go.
00:14:11Palestine.
00:14:14Free, free. Palestine.
00:14:18Free, Palestine.
00:14:49Already tens of thousands of people lining up on embankment
00:14:53this morning. I think this is going to be a very big demo,
00:14:56partly because the government has over the last
00:15:00few weeks and months, the government has had to retreat on the
00:15:03issue of Palestine. They have said that they were wrong
00:15:07and we were right. And I think there's a sense of confidence that at
00:15:10last we're making an impact on the political scene. Obviously it's
00:15:14inadequate, obviously it hasn't got anything like far enough, and people
00:15:18are demanding today, an end to all arms to Israel, a
00:15:21complete break with Israeli politically,
00:15:25and diplomatically. But nevertheless there is a big sense here that
00:15:29we are making a difference, we are winning the argument, we are making
00:15:32progress.
00:16:37Here in the background, the British government
00:16:41must commit and fulfill its obligations towards
00:16:45international law, and call the genocide by its name
00:16:48that Israel has been committing for three years in the
00:16:52Gaza Strip, and commit
00:16:55to the laws so that it works to stop this genocide
00:16:58in the besieged sector. Regarding
00:17:01this march, it is the 37th national march
00:17:04of its kind since the beginning
00:17:07of the Israeli aggression three years ago on the Gaza
00:17:11Strip. As you can see, there are
00:17:15demonstrators, the student bloc
00:17:18and the doctors for Palestine bloc and health
00:17:22sector employees, health for
00:17:25Palestine. Berlin, as you can see
00:17:28behind me the the
00:17:29demonstration.
00:17:37are already here outside of the
00:17:40office of the German chancelor. Uh this
00:17:44demonstration is organized by coalition called
00:17:49similar demonstration last year which was attended by tens
00:17:53of thousands of people. And you can see the mood here uh today as
00:17:57well. People are angry with the German government, with the
00:18:02the uh
00:18:05the Ramstein.
00:18:37night, each one on his
00:18:41shadow, each one on his shadow
00:18:44redouble,
00:18:47banishing, banishing the false
00:18:51the, the fleeting
00:18:55kiss, the
00:18:59faith,
00:19:00now that
00:19:04above,
00:20:06Imagine you're sitting in a control room somewhere in the Nevada Desert in
00:20:092011. The room is dim, the air conditioning is
00:20:13humming, and the screens in front of you are connected to an aircraft
00:20:16thousands of miles away. It's called the RQ-170
00:20:22the most secret unmanned aircraft in the American
00:20:25Arsenal. The CIA uses it for missions where simply being
00:20:28detected could create an international incident. Earlier that
00:20:32same year, an RQ-170 has been used
00:20:34in the surveillance effort surrounding Osama bin Laden's
00:20:38compound in Pakistan. Now, the same type of aircraft is being used to
00:20:42watch another extremely sensitive target, Iran. The
00:20:45Washington Post later reported that one of the early
00:20:48RQ-170 missions penetrated more than 600
00:20:52miles into Iran and observed the secret nuclear
00:20:55facility near Qom without provoking any obvious response
00:20:59from Iranian defenses. More missions followed: dozens of
00:21:03sites were watched and hundreds of surveillance passes were
00:21:06reportedly conducted. Eventually, something that once seemed
00:21:10incredibly dangerous started to feel almost routine. The
00:21:14Americans send their drones into Iran, they watch, they
00:21:17leave until one night the drone doesn't come back.
00:21:21Several days, the United States doesn't even know what's become of one of its
00:21:25most sensitive intelligence systems. Then Iranian
00:21:29television provides the answer: the Sentinel appears
00:21:32beneath bright lights, remarkably intact,
00:21:35surrounded by Iranian military personnel. For the United
00:21:39States, this is already an intelligence disaster. For
00:21:42Iran, it's an opportunity that almost nobody could have
00:21:46planned. President Barack Obama even publicly begged
00:21:49Iran, "aircraft back." As it's already
00:21:52been indicated, we
00:21:55have asked for it back. We'll see how the
00:21:59Iranians respond. Iran refused. To
00:22:02understand why that mattered so much though, we actually need to leave
00:22:062011 behind for a moment and go back almost 30
00:22:09years, because the real beginning of Iran's drone story doesn't
00:22:13involve an American stealth aircraft at all. It begins with
00:22:17a war Iran was struggling to win. I'm J and Hinkel from
00:22:20Legitimate Targets and you're watching the story of how Iran
00:22:24became the world's drone
00:22:26superpower.
00:22:30Modern armies are surrounded by satellites, drones,
00:22:34digital maps, and live video feeds. But in the early
00:22:371980s, battlefield reconnaissance often meant
00:22:40putting human beings inside aircraft and
00:22:44sending them over enemy territory. In the early years of the
00:22:48Iran-Iraq War, Iran relied heavily on
00:22:51RF-4 Phantom reconnaissance aircraft.
00:22:54These were valuable machines flown by trained crews,
00:22:57and early in the war they provided critical aerial imagery of
00:23:01Iraqi positions. But Iraq's air defenses
00:23:04improved, radar coverage expanded, and eventually an
00:23:08Iranian reconnaissance aircraft was shot down. Every
00:23:11mission now carried the possibility of losing not
00:23:15only an expensive aircraft, but also pilots that Iran
00:23:19couldn't easily replace. Under the Shah, Iran had been
00:23:23one of America's most important
00:23:26the largest customers for American military
00:23:30equipment. Its air force had been built around American
00:23:33technology. Then the 1979 Islamic
00:23:37Revolution overturned that relationship almost
00:23:40overnight. The new Islamic Republic inherited
00:23:43F-4 Phantoms, F-5 Fighters, F-14 Tomcats,
00:23:47and enormous quantities of sophisticated
00:23:50equipment. But the country that had sold Iran those weapons
00:23:54was now one of its greatest enemies. Spare parts
00:23:57became difficult to obtain, sanctions tightened, Iran's
00:24:00military couldn't afford to keep losing reconnaissance
00:24:03aircraft. So a group of students and engineers from
00:24:07Isfahan University began working on another idea.
00:24:11What if you could just put a camera in an aircraft
00:24:14without putting the pilot in it? That's exactly what they did. The
00:24:17first Iranian drones were primitive compared to what would come
00:24:21later. Medical IV bags were used as improvised fuel
00:24:24containers, propellers were made from wood, launching equipment
00:24:28was assembled by hand. These early machines had limited range
00:24:31and could struggle badly in windy conditions, sometimes even
00:24:35forcing operators to use parachutes and search for them
00:24:38after missions. But they worked. Iran's early
00:24:42UAV effort surveyed nearly 14,000 square
00:24:45kilometers and produced more than 5,000 reconnaissance frames
00:24:49during the Iran-Iraq War. A country fighting
00:24:52a much better supplied Iraq, while increasingly isolated from
00:24:56Western technology. The lesson was powerful: a crude,
00:24:59unmanned aerial aircraft did not need to be better than the
00:25:03fighter jet, it just needed to solve a problem that the fighter jet
00:25:07was too valuable to solve. And that idea would stay with Iran for
00:25:11decades.
00:25:15After the war, Iran could have treated these primitive drones as
00:25:19an emergent experiment and simply moved on. Instead, the
00:25:22country began institutionalizing them.
00:25:25Organizations such as Quds Aviation worked on
00:25:28increasingly capable unmanned systems, while
00:25:32aircraft from the Mohajer and Ababil families gradually
00:25:36improved range, reliability, and
00:25:38usefulness. Engineers learned about autopilots,
00:25:41communication systems, cameras, engines, and
00:25:44airframes. Military commanders learned what unmanned
00:25:48aircraft could and could not do.
00:25:50Factories learned how to produce and repair them. Procurement networks learned
00:25:53which foreign components could be acquired and which had to be
00:25:57replaced domestically. And sanctions shaped the entire
00:26:00process. If the preferred engine was unavailable, another engine had
00:26:04to be adapted. If specialized electronics were restricted, they had to be
00:26:08sourced through intermediaries, reverse engineered, or
00:26:11replaced with civilian components. The question wasn't always, what's
00:26:15the best possible system? Instead, it was often, what can we
00:26:19actually build? And once you understand that mindset, Iran's later
00:26:22obsession with captured foreign equipment starts making a whole lot more
00:26:26sense, because every foreign system that fell into Iranian
00:26:30hands represented something sanctions had made incredibly
00:26:33difficult to obtain
00:26:36the 1990s, Shahed Aviation
00:26:39Industries, which primarily focused on creating helicopters, began
00:26:43moving seriously into drone development. One important part of this
00:26:46development involved examining foreign unmanned aircraft,
00:26:50including the Israeli Hermes family. By 2007,
00:26:54the organization had produced the Shahed 123, while
00:26:57work soon moved toward the much more ambitious Shahed
00:27:01129. Not simply to observe, but
00:27:04eventually to conduct combat missions as well. So by
00:27:072011, Iran's drone industry was no longer a collection of
00:27:11students building improvised aircraft with wooden
00:27:14propellers. It had decades of experience. It had
00:27:17organizations dedicated to drone development. It had already
00:27:21learned to examine foreign technology and incorporate useful ideas,
00:27:25and it was beginning to move from basic reconnaissance
00:27:28toward armed long-range aircraft. Then almost
00:27:32unbelievably, one of America's most sophisticated unmanned
00:27:36aircraft landed in its
00:27:38lap.
00:27:41Iran already knew American drones were operating near its borders, but
00:27:45the United States's RQ-170 was
00:27:47different from everything Iran had previously obtained. This
00:27:51aircraft came from Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works, the
00:27:54organization associated with some of America's most secret
00:27:57aviation projects. The US Air Force publicly described the
00:28:01Sentinel only as a low-observable unmanned
00:28:05aircraft system. Even its existence had only been officially
00:28:09acknowledged in 2009, after aviation enthusiasts
00:28:12began spotting a mysterious aircraft around the
00:28:16Kandahar Airfield in Afghanistan. They nicknamed it
00:28:19the Beast of Kandahar. What happened in December 2011 was
00:28:23that one of those aircrafts stopped being something Iran could only watch
00:28:27from the ground. It became something that Iranian
00:28:30technicians could actually touch. "The United States never
00:28:33publicly released the classified telemetry and
00:28:36attributed the loss to a malfunction. So the complete technical sequence
00:28:40remains unknown outside the participants. But the
00:28:43operational result is undeniable. The CIA
00:28:47lost the RQ-170 inside Iran, and Iran
00:28:50recovered the aircraft in unusually intact
00:28:53condition." This was the turning point that accelerated Iran's
00:28:56existing drone programs. Iran now had something in their
00:29:00hands that years of espionage
00:29:02might not have produced: physical access to an actual advanced
00:29:06American drone. American officials had already recognized the
00:29:10broader danger. In December 2011, then Air Force Chief
00:29:14of Staff, General Norton Schwartz, acknowledged publicly
00:29:17that there was clearly potential for reverse engineering.
00:30:25The head of the Regulatory Authority said that despite
00:30:29efforts, we have less than 7 million fixed internet connections based
00:30:32on copper cables and only 2 million fiber internet connections in
00:30:36the country. Mr. Fattai, in a special interview
00:30:40program, cited challenges in implementing fiber optic internet in
00:30:43metropolises as the main reason for the slow
00:30:47progress.
00:30:49Specifically, regarding metropolises, especially Tehran,
00:30:53we don't have good statistics
00:30:57due to the lack of,
