00:00:28Head of the Organization. The radio regulations, referring to
00:00:32the reversal of the internet consumption pattern in Iran compared to the world,
00:00:35said: Globally, the bulk of users' communication traffic
00:00:39is carried by fixed telephone networks and fiber optics,
00:00:42while in Iran, we are witnessing the opposite situation.
00:00:45Mr. Fattai said in a special news interview program:
00:00:49The main burden of the country's communications is concentrated on the mobile network.
00:00:53In the world, there is a norm that, for example, 70
00:00:57percent of communications are based on fixed lines.
00:01:10The lack of proper quality of fixed communication, which is one of the main drivers
00:01:13of the fiber project, was definitely
00:01:17referred to. Anyway, you have either seen or dealt with people
00:01:21who definitely need to have a fiber connection due to their specific usage,
00:01:24meaning that, for example, due to the
00:01:27distance of the user's home from
00:01:31the telecommunication center, if this exceeds a certain limit, that fiber-based connection
00:01:35is no longer effective. That's why the user uses mobile capacity.
00:01:38Well, mobile, as I mentioned, is
00:01:41after all, related to the frequency. This space, after all,
00:01:45the country's frequency becomes a problem, and
00:01:49mobile network development means the economics of mobile network
00:01:52development is not such that you necessarily want to have
00:01:56100% coverage. The
00:02:02Minister of Roads and Urban Development, on the sidelines of a visit to the exhibition of rural
00:02:05and nomadic capabilities, regarding rural housing, said: Within
00:02:09the framework of the Youth Population Law and land transfer schemes,
00:02:12so far, 19,000 plots of land have been transferred to
00:02:16applicants in the past two years.
00:02:18We
00:02:20have a track record both in the Youth Population Law
00:02:24and in the transfer
00:02:27of 99-year supportive lands. In
00:02:32the youth population, more than 21,000, of which
00:02:3619,000 were done in these two years, meaning if
00:02:4021,000 plots were delivered, 19,000 of them were in these two years, and this
00:02:43number clearly shows that this special attention
00:02:46to housing has been given. Another thing
00:02:50that we are pursuing, and with the change in policies that are being pursued in the Housing Foundation,
00:02:54special attention is being paid to the villagers who
00:02:57live in the village. Anyway, the community
00:03:00that exists there should have more flexibility in rural development plans
00:03:03so that
00:03:06villagers, children of villagers, and those who may
00:03:10be in big cities and want to return to their villages, this
00:03:13reverse migration exists and is included in the plans, and
00:03:17this population
00:03:20that must have permanent residence there can at least have their problem solved in the plans
00:03:24so that they can reside there.
00:03:27Ms. Sadegh also said: Currently,
00:03:29more than 220,000 kilometers of rural roads
00:03:33in the country have been
00:03:36asphalted.
00:03:37At
00:03:44the cabinet meeting, the President presented a report on his trip to
00:03:48Turkmenistan. At this meeting, a resolution aiming to
00:03:51support executive missions, organize border affairs, and
00:03:55service fuel stations was approved.
00:03:57The
00:04:03Atomic Energy Organization and the Ministry of Health, by signing an agreement,
00:04:07put the use of nuclear technology for controlling Aedes mosquitoes
00:04:10and combating dengue fever on their agenda.
00:04:14The
00:04:18population and housing census will begin virtually on
00:04:22October 17th and in-person from early November. This
00:04:26census, after 10 years, will be conducted for the first time by the method of
00:04:29registration without a basis.
00:04:31The
00:04:33border guard commander of FARAJA announced that in the past 7 months,
00:04:37in addition to discovering drugs, border guards have prevented the entry
00:04:41of over 54,000 weapons and ammunition into the country.

00:05:11We
00:06:33must avoid this and stand strong together for a strong Iran, God willing. The animosity of American officials
00:06:37has even extended to Iran's civilization and history.
00:06:40While
00:07:04the United States of America and the American criminals only
00:07:08have 250 years of service. The heroic people of Iran
00:07:12give their lives, but they don't give their land.
00:07:15Are you willing to compromise your country's land for
00:07:19economic pressures? No,
00:07:22not at all. Our land is more important than food, clothing,
00:07:26and, I would say, the security
00:07:29of our country is above everything else. Above
00:07:33anything, even my life. My life is sacrificed
00:07:35for the country.
00:08:13The newly arrived pistachio growers in Boshruyeh are still
00:08:16busy harvesting green gold.
00:08:19Mashallah, this year
00:08:21has a lot of yield.
00:08:23It's
00:08:27been a week since we started harvesting pistachios in Boshruyeh orchards.
00:08:31They come from 5 am until 12 pm.
00:08:34The blessing of the hands of 1638
00:08:37hard-working Boshruyeh orchard owners
00:08:40and the production of quality pistachios have brought
00:08:44smiles to the faces of the experienced
00:08:47farmers of this region.
00:08:48We
00:08:51have pistachios, and thank God, the crop is good and desirable,
00:08:55better than last year. This orchard, its pistachios are
00:08:58Ahmad's pistachios and are very good. They give
00:09:01good yield. It's fertile. The climate
00:09:04itself has made the taste of Boshruyeh pistachios very different from outside pistachios.
00:09:08Pistachios that after harvest
00:09:12are sent for processing to 14
00:09:15Boshruyeh pistachio processing terminals. Boshruyeh county,
00:09:17with 820 hectares
00:09:20of pistachio orchards,
00:09:23is one of the leading counties in the production of this product,
00:09:27with 7,000 hectares of these being fertile
00:09:30and 1,200 hectares non-fertile.
00:09:34The
00:09:36harvest amount is lower compared to last year, but the quality
00:09:40is very good, thank God. Our processing
00:09:43capacity is 1300 tons per year.
00:09:47In terms of
00:09:49quality, the crop is much better than last year,
00:09:53and its ounce and size are larger. Fandoghi, Ahmad
00:09:57Aghaei, Badami, Kalleh Ghouchi, white,
00:10:00and Akbari are among the types of Boshruyeh pistachios.
00:10:03It is predicted that this year, more than
00:10:06455 tons of dry pistachios
00:10:10will be harvested from Boshruyeh orchards and sent to the market.

00:10:20Beirut, Lebanon.
00:10:46Beirut,
00:10:47Lebanon.
00:10:53Beirut might seem like a strange place to start a story about
00:10:57Gaza. But it's my home, and it's not far from where my friend Raed is under
00:11:01siege and trying to survive a genocide.
00:11:05I came to Lebanon 40 years ago to become a journalist.
00:11:07My first big story was in 1982,
00:11:11at the time of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. It
00:11:15happened as Israel was trying to suppress
00:11:18Palestinian movements. Now
00:11:21I am watching the Israeli war in Gaza, witnessing this genocide
00:11:25that is becoming more and more evident
00:11:28every day. This is beyond endurance.
00:11:32It's not like
00:11:35anything I've seen before. Like all other foreign journalists,
00:11:39I cannot bear
00:11:42to see these images. I cannot help and I cannot remain silent.
00:11:46Among all the people of Gaza, the first
00:11:49person who comes to my mind is my friend Raed.
00:11:53We worked together for 20 years, but in the week of October,
00:11:57Raed's phone went silent. Not knowing if he was still alive
00:12:00was killing me. I
00:12:04am a photojournalist and filmmaker.
00:12:20For decades, I covered the news in Gaza.
00:12:23How are you,
00:12:25my good friend? How are
00:12:29you?
00:12:30Raed
00:12:37is a coordinator, and his job is to help foreign journalists
00:12:40like me.
00:12:41We
00:12:44started our collaboration when the liberation of Gaza seemed
00:12:48near.
00:12:49Raed
00:13:12is much more than a driver. He was my eyes
00:13:15and ears in Gaza. He helped me many times.
00:13:19Now I have to do something for him. I even miss his bizarre
00:13:23sense of humor. Do you want us to film you?
00:13:26Oh my God, you want to teach me this?
00:13:30You want to teach me to be your cameraman?
00:13:33If I become a cameraman, it would be great.
00:13:37When you are tired, I will film.
00:13:40In
00:13:432006, our first documentary was supposed to be a secret narrative
00:13:46about news coverage. But when Israeli artillery
00:13:50killed 19 members of Raed's family in their hometown and in their
00:13:53home while they were sleeping, this
00:13:56narrative turned into an account of a massacre.
00:13:59What happened? Raed, I don't know.
00:14:03I only saw the children who were killed. I didn't understand anything else.
00:14:06I saw children who were two years old or twenty years old, torn
00:14:10to pieces. Why?
00:14:13I don't understand anymore. Filming Raed's grief that day
00:14:17was the hardest thing I had ever done. Israel
00:14:21called it a technical error. I had
00:14:25no idea that this was just the beginning of documenting his
00:14:29and Gaza's suffering.
00:14:30Raed
00:14:37moved his family to another house to rebuild that one,
00:14:40and to get away from some of his bitter past memories.
00:14:44But two years later, in 2009, Israel attacked Gaza
00:14:48again and destroyed everything he had built. They destroyed everything
00:14:51we had in this world. We had nothing left.
00:14:55Nothing.
00:14:56My
00:15:02dear, come on.
00:15:04Let's fix this with a piece of wood so we can sit
00:15:08on it. Come on.
00:15:29After the renewed attack on his home, Raed rebuilt
00:15:31it for the second time. That same year, his wife, Ehteram,
00:15:35gave birth to their youngest son,
00:15:37named Majdi. When his son was born, he was the happiest
00:15:41I had ever seen him.
00:15:43Over
00:15:45the years, I watched Majdi grow and become a confident,
00:15:49rebellious, and lovable child.
00:15:52He was the apple of his father's eye. Raed
00:15:56and I made many stories
00:16:03about Gaza. And along the way, an unbreakable
00:16:11friendship was formed. Gaza
00:16:14Strip, January
00:16:172024. Six months after the start of this war,
00:16:20I had not heard anything about Raed. After October 7, 2023,
00:16:24every morning I went straight to the news and searched for Raed's fate,
00:16:28but nothing.
00:16:31I have been teaching
00:16:33journalism at the American University
00:16:36of Beirut for the past 10 years. Hassan Harfoush
00:16:39was one of my students,
00:16:40and now he is one of the senior
00:16:48field producers in Lebanon, like Raed. His
00:16:52job is also to support foreign journalists.
00:16:55Just like Raed, Hassan was forced to evacuate his home
00:16:59when Israel began bombing Lebanon in September
00:17:032024. It's
00:17:06sad. My best friend
00:17:09lost his home. What people don't understand is that you don't just lose
00:17:12your home and memories; you lose everything that is in that home.
00:17:15Everything. He didn't even have clothes. I gave him shoes and some things.
00:17:19Nothing was left for him. Nothing. Here in
00:17:22Lebanon, some villages have been completely destroyed, and more than a
00:17:25million people, including Hassan, have been forced to flee their homes.
00:17:29When
00:17:31everything calms down,
00:17:39I will definitely go back. This is very bad and it affects us, but the people
00:17:43of Gaza are experiencing even worse.
00:17:47When you cut off water and food from people
00:17:51and kill children and do all these things, it makes no sense.
00:17:54This is no longer war.
00:17:57But
00:18:00even when Lebanon was under bombardment, I was worried about Raed.
00:18:03Finally,
00:18:08a lot of news was coming from Gaza. After months
00:18:11of silence, I received a message from Raed. He said
00:18:15that when the war started, he guided his family south. First, they went
00:18:18to Jabalia camp and then to Khan Yunis. As
00:18:22a result of Israeli airstrikes, many members of his family were killed.
00:18:26Thank God, we are still alive. They bombed only a few
00:18:30meters away from us. Thank God, we are still alive.
00:18:33The situation is terrible. There is no safe place
00:18:37to go. It's a truly
00:18:39difficult situation.
00:18:44They are sleeping on wet mattresses in torn
00:18:46tents. I clung to every hope to get a tent for his family.
00:18:50But I couldn't even do that.
00:18:54George, is your friend from the NGOs
00:18:58still around? We need clothes and tents.
00:19:02Anything to cover us from the rain and cold.
00:19:05Our tents and clothes are all
00:19:09torn and in bad shape. It has also started raining.
00:19:12We are near the sea. The cold is killing
00:19:15us.
00:19:23My old friend, Aline Manoukian, was a photojournalist
00:19:26during the Lebanese civil wars. Now, she
00:19:30is the editor of an international news agency, and she spends every day
00:19:34sifting through news photos and genocide photos. Do
00:19:38you have any news about Raed? I wanted to tell
00:19:41you. Yes.
00:19:44Well.
00:19:46Jo, what
00:19:48is it?
00:19:50Come on, what is it? Is he
00:19:52alive?
00:20:02What happened, George?
00:20:05Come on, tell me, is he alive?
00:20:37I saw the child. Yes, this is normal life in Gaza.
00:20:40We, who cover the news in Lebanon, with French children who are having
00:20:44fun and carefree, well, I know they come here
00:20:47and go to the first cafe with their friends for vacation,
00:20:51but here another war starts. We are covering our own war.
00:20:54They are the people you know, so there is no need to worry.
00:20:58Well,
00:21:00you know the situation
00:21:02is like this now. Yes.
00:21:05Yes,
00:21:09it's a lot of suffering. I know. You can't even digest it. Yes,
00:21:13it's impossible.
00:21:18And it's strange that
00:21:20we see all of this every day, and you see it every day,
00:21:24and you can't do anything. Nothing. I know what you tell them
00:21:28on the phone. I'm sorry this happened.
00:21:31I wish I could. What do you say?
00:21:34I don't say that. I know, because it's stupid.
00:21:37It has no meaning. It's meaningless. Yes,
00:21:40I understand. I know
00:21:42what you mean.
00:21:52That's what people say, that they killed many women
00:21:56and children, as if men are worthless.
00:21:58I
00:22:03know Aline is traumatized. She sees photos of death
00:22:06and destruction in Gaza every day.
00:22:10People run to get food, but they are shot,
00:22:13and this is the worst thing I have ever seen. But it
00:22:17can still get worse. This is something that is completely
00:22:21incomprehensible to humans. You know, usually when someone
00:22:25is injured and their body is still
00:22:28warm, they don't feel their wound. They don't realize
00:22:31the injury and the wound. When the injury cools down, the pain
00:22:35slowly begins. There is a moment of calm,
00:22:38as if only then do we start
00:22:41feeling the blows. We are mostly in denial.
00:22:45I know this is my survival mechanism, but
00:22:48when you calm down, you start feeling
00:22:52the blow.
00:22:53I know.
00:22:58Yes.
00:23:04Oh my God. They said the ceasefire was
00:23:08from Sunday. But on that Sunday, 81 people were killed.
00:23:11The
00:23:15ceasefire in January 2025 gave hope that
00:23:18the war might end. With the help of our Gaza cameraman,
00:23:22we filmed Raed's and his son's journey north.
00:23:25Returning to their home in Beit Hanoun, instead of documenting
00:23:29the end of the war, this was another chapter, and
00:23:32Raed was trying to survive. In the
00:23:36south, Raed's back was injured by shrapnel. The doctor
00:23:40removed the shrapnel without anesthesia, and he operated on the hospital floor
00:23:44because there was no bed, and the situation was very
00:23:47terrible.
00:24:09We need to go home, whether today or tomorrow. I need to
00:24:13set up a tent and build a toilet. I know there's a lot of work
00:24:16to do. God will help us. You know what I mean?
00:24:20Bend
00:24:26it a little more. One more time. More.
00:24:29Yes,
00:24:31that's it.
00:24:34Drive behind me.
00:24:47My daughters, my wife, my other son, my grandchildren
00:24:51walked along the seaside. The road to
00:24:54Beit Hanoun is 30
00:24:55kilometers.
00:25:04We are at the checkpoint now. We have two more days to go.
00:25:07Don't sleep there. The little ones
00:25:11will freeze from the cold.
00:25:11He
00:25:18wanted.
00:25:31When Raed arrived home, he saw that everything he had was destroyed.
00:25:34This was the third time he had lost everything
00:25:38in the Israeli war.
00:25:58After two months of sleeping on the rubble, the ceasefire collapsed.
00:26:05The war started, and Raed and his family had to flee again.
00:26:09I don't know where to go. Everyone
00:26:13left. We are stuck here.
00:26:16We don't know what is happening. It's really
00:26:20difficult.
00:26:24For more than a year, I watched the genocide. I couldn't
00:26:27do anything. But this time, I could help. One
00:26:31of my friends had an empty house in Gaza and generously
00:26:35allowed Raed and 50 of his relatives to take
00:26:38refuge there. But there was little food and water
00:26:42there.
00:26:46What can we cook today? Majed found some lentils. Yes.
00:26:50Good. We'll sort everything out. How much should I pay for the lentils?
00:26:54150 shekels. For lentils?
00:26:57We bought the lentils at the price of lamb that we used to buy.
00:27:00This
00:27:13bowl of soup is the only food for the family
00:27:16for days.
00:27:19It's delicious. It's all for
00:27:21you.
00:27:24In a moment, something
00:27:26happened. Water,
00:27:30come.
00:27:34Majed, come. This seemed like a miracle, but this
00:27:38water was too salty
00:27:40to drink.
00:27:46What is it, darling? Fill this. It's
00:27:49cut off. Are you kidding? Be careful
00:27:53with Grandpa's head. It's cut off again.
00:27:57He's sick again. It's because he's
00:28:00not moving. Let me see what's bothering him. The problem is not
00:28:03just food and water. Due to the Israeli siege,
00:28:07there are no medicines, and Raed's mother and
00:28:11his brother Mohammad suffer from severe diabetes and
00:28:14mental disability.
00:28:43How are you, Raed? How are
00:28:46you, George? Thank God, you look good.
00:28:50You seem cheerful. I missed you so much.
00:28:54Tell me how your family is doing. I think about you every
00:28:57day. Tell me that your whole family is with you.
00:29:01Thank God, they are still alive in this situation.
00:29:04What a life situation. The conditions are absolutely
00:29:07terrible. We are very hungry. I don't know what
00:29:11to say. There is no security either.
00:29:15Nothing. There is absolutely
00:29:18nothing. What is Majdi doing? Majdi
00:29:22is outside now. He's constantly fighting with people. Let me call him.
00:29:26Come. I'll tell him now.
00:29:28Come. Majdi, Majdi,
00:29:32come. Majdi, come
00:29:36here. Come
00:29:39now. The military
00:29:41son.
00:29:45An hour and a half ago, he was fighting with some people.
00:29:48Yes.
00:29:51Yes, that's him. Yes.
00:29:55How are you? How are you, Majdi?
00:29:58Majdi, Majdi, I'm so happy to see you. How old
00:30:02are you now? He's 16.
00:30:06Wow. That's great.
00:30:09Yes. We are all very
00:30:13hungry now. The main problem is food. When I went to
00:30:16the hospital, I didn't see any doctors or nurses.
00:30:19You know, they just cleaned
00:30:22the wound and the blood.
00:30:25Raed, I don't know what to
00:30:28say. We are so tired now.
00:30:33I'm also very tired. I don't know what
00:30:36to do anymore. It's a very difficult situation.
00:30:39I'm really sorry.
00:30:43Thank God I saw you. I'm so happy.
00:30:46I'm so happy because I missed you so much. You understand?
00:30:50I really missed you. We also missed you.
00:30:54You know, I always think about you. Thank God I saw you.
00:30:57I'm genuinely happy.
