00:00:00is the resistance and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Very well, thank you very much, Mr. Regarding the end of the war, we refer to the ceasefire, but in the area of crisis, I think we should go to changing the calculations that made that war possible. If they want, they should go and change those conditions. Thank you very much, Dr., for your presence and explanations, and a special thank you for your companionship. In the name of God, greetings and good morning to you, dear and respected viewers. Welcome to the sports news. Shahshahani, Iran's first medalist in the 2026 Youth Olympics. On the first official day of these games, hosted by Dakar, Senegal, Parsa Shahshahani won the silver medal in the 200-meter backstroke with a time of 2 minutes, 2 seconds, and 74 hundredths of a second. In table tennis, Benjamin Faraji won his second match 3-0 against the Thai representative, and in volleyball,
00:00:22Good morning, dear viewers. You are watching the 9 AM news
00:00:26from Khabar Network. The Minister of Foreign Affairs of our country arrived in Ashgabat
00:00:29this morning for a meeting and consultation with Turkmen
00:00:33officials. Mr. Aragchi will discuss and consult on strengthening
00:00:36cooperation and expanding bilateral relations
00:00:40in various political and economic
00:00:43fields during this trip.
00:00:45The Commander of the National Police
00:00:48said that by the order of the Supreme Leader, the police
00:00:52are ready for all conditions, along with other
00:00:56armed forces. According to Brigadier General Ahmadreza
00:01:00Radan, if the enemy makes a mistake,
00:01:03it will suffer a defeat worse than in the past.
00:01:07Just as the Supreme Leader ordered the senior
00:01:11military commanders, all targets
00:01:14are being updated. The readiness of the armed
00:01:18forces has greatly increased since the war.
00:01:21We are sure that if the enemy makes a mistake,
00:01:25they will taste the bitter
00:01:28taste of defeat more than ever before.
00:01:32Everyone who supports the enemy in some way
00:01:35should know. If the next war
00:01:39happens, geography will no longer
00:01:42matter. Wherever the enemy's interests lie,
00:01:45it will be a legitimate target, God willing.
00:01:48The head of the Judicial and Legal Commission of the Parliament
00:01:51announced the plan to amend the Criminal Procedure
00:01:55Law and said that according to this amendment, the presence
00:01:58of a lawyer in the preliminary investigation stage
00:02:02will be mandatory at the client's request. If
00:02:06for any reason during the preliminary
00:02:10investigations, the officer does not provide
00:02:14the possibility for a lawyer to be present,
00:02:17all the investigations conducted will
00:02:21not be valid, and if those
00:02:23investigations are the basis for issuing a verdict,
00:02:27that verdict will also be invalid. If it becomes law,
00:02:30at least in the field of criminal offenses,
00:02:34and specifically in the area of issuing orders,
00:02:37more than 50% of the people who currently go to prison,
00:02:40God willing, will not go to prison after this law is passed.
00:02:42The "Ganj-e Ravān" (Flowing Treasure) exhibition
00:02:45was inaugurated with the aim of introducing a selection
00:02:49of donated and endowed works in the treasury
00:02:52of the Malek National Library and Museum. This exhibition, which showcases
00:02:56the value of the culture of endowment and the participation
00:03:00of benefactors in preserving national heritage,
00:03:03will be open to visitors for one month. To mark the 80th
00:03:07anniversary of the endowment
00:03:10of the museum and library,
00:03:1389 works from the collection
00:03:17of Haj Hossein Agha Malek,
00:03:20both from him and from other
00:03:24endowers from his own family and other
00:03:27families and individuals,
00:03:30researchers, and others who
00:03:33have been in contact with the museum, both Iranians and non-Iranians,
00:03:37a collection of 89 works has been gathered
00:03:41and put on display for visitors as a selection
00:03:45of this "flowing treasure," a treasure that Haj Hossein Agha
00:03:49founded 89 years ago and is still active and flowing.
00:03:53Resistance cinema, in addition to narrating
00:03:56the events of war, also addresses
00:03:58its human, cultural, and identity dimensions.
00:04:02This cinema, by re-examining historical memories
00:04:05and realities, tries to narrate the experience
00:04:09of people's steadfastness and its impact
00:04:12on the lives of today's and future generations.
00:04:16One day, the sound
00:04:21of explosions will be silenced, but will the story
00:04:24of war also end?
00:04:26The story of people
00:04:30who stood firm, chose, and did not
00:04:34surrender still continues, but this time
00:04:37in the frame of cinema. And men of God
00:04:41are awake beyond this darkness. This spirit
00:04:44of steadfastness and resistance is showing itself
00:04:48more and more in our culture, and art is nothing
00:04:51but the mirror of culture, and cinema is nothing
00:04:55but what people are living. The narrative
00:04:58of this steadfastness for Iranian cinema began
00:05:02in the years of the Sacred Defense, when cameras, while recording
00:05:06the battlefield, depicted an epic.
00:05:09The initial origin of the Sacred Defense Festival,
00:05:13well, it was an 8-year war, but it did not
00:05:16change its approach later. It expanded its approach
00:05:20a bit, and that was a definition of resistance.
00:05:24It was a broader definition. But resistance was not
00:05:27meant to remain in the frame of war forever.
00:05:31Sometimes it takes shape in the heart of a city among people
00:05:35who decide to stay together in the hardest
00:05:39moments. Here, a missile, I don't know, a drone has hit, and smoke is coming out of it.
00:05:43Sometimes it's about overcoming fear, standing firm at a moment
00:05:47when everything can change. These people are our
00:05:51guests now. I myself came here to host them. And sometimes
00:05:54you have to take the camera into the heart of reality,
00:05:57where behind every event, life and human emotions
00:06:01flow. If I am to talk about a place, if I haven't
00:06:04seen it, it's impossible for me to talk about it.
00:06:08I can't.
00:06:13You witnessed three different perspectives, but one
00:06:16common point: resistance is not
00:06:20just fighting; sometimes it's preserving identity,
00:06:23cultural steadfastness, and making the right
00:06:26choice in difficult moments. Resistance cinema essentially
00:06:30should give a feeling to the people of society
00:06:34that they can be influential in this process of resistance.
00:06:37It's important that our cinema, considering various cultural,
00:06:41social, political, and even economic issues it addresses,
00:06:44also specifically addresses this topic and genre.
00:06:48Perhaps this is why these stories endure: that what
00:06:52we experience today will become part of the memory
00:06:56of a generation tomorrow. All films set during
00:06:59wartime, if they focus on the human aspect,
00:07:03can be the most current films. From the Sacred Defense
00:07:06until today, resistance cinema narrates the stories
00:07:10of people who stood firm at historical turning points,
00:07:13and as long as the story of steadfastness is narrated,
00:07:16these memories will remain alive. Atiyeh Rezaei,
00:07:19IRIB News Agency.
00:07:25Further news: According to the UN Office for the Coordination
00:07:28of Humanitarian Affairs, attacks by Zionist settlers in the West
00:07:32Bank have reached their highest level in 20 years.
00:07:36According to this announcement, in the past month,
00:07:39397 violent acts
00:07:42against Palestinians have occurred, which is the highest number
00:07:46of attacks in one month since 2006. Also,
00:07:50according to this international body, during this period,
00:07:5357 Palestinians, including 9 children,
00:07:57were injured in various areas of the West Bank
00:08:00and East Jerusalem, 23 of whom were injured
00:08:03in settler attacks and 34 by occupying
00:08:07forces. At the same time, news
00:08:10from all
00:08:31night gatherings and presence in the square
00:08:35reached 246.
00:08:37A presence in which people cited
00:08:41political and military power and progress in infrastructural,
00:08:44industrial, and defensive fields as achievements
00:08:47of Islamic Iran after the victory of the revolution.
00:08:51The land of lions, Iran.
00:08:55A sharp blade, Iran.
00:08:59If you want to point to one example
00:09:02of Islamic Iran's achievements in the past 47 years,
00:09:06which one would you point to? Freedom. The power
00:09:09of the Islamic Republic of Iran, its independence. We have
00:09:13been able to make great progress with more advanced
00:09:16missiles that superpowers don't even allow themselves
00:09:20to consider attacking. Progress in urban development,
00:09:23progress in sports,
00:09:25progress in construction, national production,
00:09:29now in the fields of steel, car manufacturing,
00:09:31and self-sufficiency. The flag of Iran
00:09:35is in the heart of the nation. The flag
00:09:37of Iran, according to many analysts,
00:09:41is now the fourth power in the world.
00:09:44What is the source of this power? This power
00:09:47is the result of the guidance of the martyred Imam
00:09:50and unity between the nation and the armed forces.
00:09:54This power is the result of the faith, will,
00:09:57and steadfastness of the valiant and brave
00:10:01nation of Islamic Iran, who are always present
00:10:04on the scene. The fourth power in the world
00:10:07is these very people who are the backbone of the revolution,
00:10:11the backbone of the fighters, the backbone of the armed forces. We will remain in the field
00:10:15for a long time.
00:10:17What do you think Iran's response to America's
00:10:21and the Zionist regime's adventures should be?
00:10:25In my opinion, it should be the same as what the Leader said.
00:10:28He said to respond without geographical limits.
00:10:32A crushing, deterrent, offensive response.
00:10:35It must be in the most severe,
00:10:38best, and most painful way possible. We must hit
00:10:41them very hard and powerfully so that they don't even mention
00:10:45Iran's name, let alone attack its soil.
00:10:48Iran is alive! Iran!
00:10:51Raise your flag! Until the next news
00:10:55segments of the day. In the name of God, greetings
00:11:17and good time to you, my dear compatriots
00:11:21and dear and respected viewers.
00:11:24Khabar Network is with you for another program,
00:11:27"Battle of Hormuz," for a closer look
00:11:31at current developments. On the eve
00:11:34of the US midterm
00:11:36elections, two paths simultaneously face Tehran
00:11:40and Washington. On one hand, mediators
00:11:43have become active to reach an agreement,
00:11:46a goal they are pursuing, including the reopening
00:11:50of the Strait of Hormuz. On the other hand, maintaining
00:11:53military readiness and threatening to resume
00:11:57attacks. A situation that can be described
00:12:01as diplomacy under military threat.
00:12:04Various news is circulating, but as we speak,
00:12:07the region is facing a situation where,
00:12:11simultaneously with diplomatic movement, military
00:12:15arrangements are also changing. Doha negotiations have entered
00:12:19their third day, and there is talk of a plan
00:12:22that links the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz
00:12:26to the implementation of Iran's conditions. But Washington claims
00:12:29that, according to Trump's latest claim,
00:12:32it still has the military option on its agenda.
00:12:36The main question at present is whether the two sides
00:12:40are moving towards an agreement to contain the crisis,
00:12:43or merely buying time
00:12:46for the next phase of confrontation.
00:12:49To discuss this issue, we are joined by Mr. Farkhondehpour,
00:12:52one of our country's experts
00:12:55on international affairs. Dr., greetings and welcome. In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
00:12:58I also extend my greetings to you, Mr. Saifi,
00:13:02your dear and respected colleagues, and also
00:13:05to the noble, great, and heroic people of Iran
00:13:09who are listening to the live news program. Let's start
00:13:12with this introduction. Do you think that what
00:13:15is being reported in the media is that both
00:13:19sides are seeking an active diplomacy
00:13:23to manage the crisis or to resolve it?
00:13:30Not merely buying time for a future that some believe will again see developments and war and such issues. In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Well, as you are aware, the Islamic Republic
00:13:34of Iran has shown its sincerity in matters
00:13:37related to diplomacy and active diplomatic
00:13:40engagement. Throughout
00:13:44this period when we have
00:13:46witnessed various political and military
00:13:50fluctuations in the region,
00:13:54we have observed that the sincerity
00:13:57of the Islamic Republic of Iran
00:14:00in diplomacy, in observing diplomatic
00:14:04etiquette and rules of diplomacy,
00:14:06has truly been a very positive
00:14:10engagement in the world. We were
00:14:14in the midst of diplomatic
00:14:17agreements when, unfortunately,
00:14:20in two stages, we were subjected
00:14:23to heavy military aggression
00:14:27by the terrorist and criminal government
00:14:30of the United States and also the ominous
00:14:33Zionist regime. Well, we showed our sincerity
00:14:37in the rule of diplomacy, even though we received criticism.
00:14:40But the sincerity of the Islamic Republic of Iran is that
00:14:43war is the last resort, and
00:14:47you are aware that in political rules,
00:14:51we try our best not to raise the issue of war,
00:14:55because war, in any case, does not have a positive image.
00:14:59But when we see that the other side, with a savage
00:15:02and ignoble nature, is disrupting the rules of diplomacy
00:15:06and wants to gain concessions
00:15:10from the other side, here these issues
00:15:13are set aside, and the true face
00:15:16of the sincere battle of the Iranian people
00:15:19shows itself. Today, before I came
00:15:23to your presence, one of the expert
00:15:26and specific military experts I spoke with told me
00:15:29that we truly have not seen
00:15:33in this recent century any instance where the terrorist
00:15:36government of the United States has been defeated. They claim
00:15:40that in Vietnam
00:15:42we were militarily victorious, but politically defeated.
00:15:46They believe that in the Korean War,
00:15:50in various wars that, well, you are aware
00:15:53in this recent century the terrorist government of the United States
00:15:57inflicted countless wars on the people of the world.
00:16:00They believe that we were defeated in the political
00:16:03battle and succeeded in the military battle.
00:16:07But the only exception they bring up in the world
00:16:10now is the battle, the last two battles
00:16:14where, as you see, America truly was defeated. And American military experts
00:16:17also believe this, especially when they saw
00:16:21the power of the Islamic Republic of Iran and this management
00:16:24we had on the scene and in the streets,
00:16:27simultaneously at the launchers, it truly confronted
00:16:30them with a puzzle of why we entered
00:16:34this without consideration and without a pre-prepared
00:16:54plan. The Islamic Republic of Iran, well,
00:16:58as you mentioned, the third day
00:17:01of the Doha negotiations and the statements
00:17:04of the Supreme Leader, His Holiness Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei,
00:17:08and his closing
00:17:11plan regarding the commands
00:17:14of our great military commanders,
00:17:17well, that really defined the end of the line
00:17:21for them. The Islamic Republic of Iran is ready for diplomacy
00:17:24and the acceptance of its seven conditions. This acceptance has probably
00:17:28been conveyed many times through our ambassadors,
00:17:31through envoys they have sent to Iran, or by many
00:17:35responsible officials who come for consultations
00:17:38as mediators to American officials. But
00:17:42if these seven conditions, which are the demands
00:17:45of the Iranian people, are met, and as you can
00:17:49see, people come to the field with sincerity and power
00:17:53and support the Islamic Republic of Iran, our borders,
00:17:57our land, our honor, everything. These are the demands
00:18:00of the people of the Islamic Republic, and these have been repeatedly
00:18:04brought to the attention of American officials
00:18:07in matters related to negotiations.
00:18:11If they accept, according to the rule that has been established,
00:18:15the Islamic Republic of Iran is ready. But if they want to act
00:18:18against this, or if they want to violate it, considering
00:18:21that, thank God, we are truly an exemplary
00:18:25country in terms of defense, many American media outlets
00:18:28refer to us as a superpower, not an American, but a European
00:18:32superpower, the fourth power in the world.
00:18:35They themselves know that in missile technology today,
00:18:39we are one of the most powerful countries in the world,
00:18:42and they themselves know that when a country reaches
00:18:46pinpoint accuracy in technology, it means it is among the superpowers
00:18:50of the world. It's not a simple matter, Mr. Saifi.
00:18:54You believe that we stand on our principles,
00:18:57and the ball is in their court, and they must decide. Yes,
00:19:01they must decide. Regarding diplomatic issues, we are ready.
00:19:05But regarding military issues, if, God forbid,
00:19:08they violate, our dear fighters will act with power
00:19:12and strength in all fronts, and those
00:19:14matters that we mentioned regarding geography,
00:19:18according to the statements of the Supreme Leader,
00:19:21that geography is no longer important to us, if they want
00:19:24to violate from now on, their targets are their
00:19:27economic targets that are important to us,
00:19:31and finally, in striking them, our brave fighters will not show
00:19:35the slightest deviation
00:19:37or shortcoming. Dr., when you look at the statements
00:19:41of both sides, the reality is that both
00:19:45sides have explicitly stated that the issue
00:19:48is trust. Now, they
00:19:50look at Iran and say that we must have a guarantee.
00:19:54And Iran, well, considering America's betrayals,
00:19:57demands this. In fact, when you look a bit
00:20:00more closely, it's only the sequence of actions
00:20:03that both sides must take. Iran says that
00:20:07first there should be the lifting of the siege
00:20:10and sanctions and these matters, and then
00:20:13in subsequent negotiations, we will enter into nuclear
00:20:16issues if we want to and talk. They say no, first nuclear,
00:20:20then we go to other issues and so on. What do you think
00:20:24this sequence will be? Is there a way for both
00:20:27sides to do it simultaneously, or will we eventually
00:20:31reach the same stalemate that we have now?
00:20:35Look, Americans are treacherous and unreliable, and this
00:20:38has been proven to all the people of the world
00:20:42and world public opinion. Look at the clear example
00:20:45of that, you can see it. Well, we don't want to go
00:20:49into the past and say what betrayals
00:20:53and violations they committed there. Just look at these
00:20:56two recent wars. They truly undermined our diplomatic
00:21:00negotiations and trampled on all the rules
00:21:04related to the structure of diplomacy. The perfidy
00:21:08of Americans has been proven to all the people of the world,
00:21:11to all public opinion. If you really go to intellectual
00:21:14circles that are analyzing, to public opinion that is really
00:21:18monitoring the facts,
00:21:20you will see that they only want negotiations
00:21:24to consolidate their position. After consolidating their position,
00:21:27rest assured that if circumstances allow,
00:21:31they will truly attack like a wild wolf,
00:21:35and the Islamic Republic of Iran has made the necessary
00:21:39preparations for this. And this audacity that
00:21:42they showed in two wars against Iran, and tasted
00:21:46defeat, just as in this war, if they don't follow
00:21:50the arrangements that you just mentioned,
00:21:54we are the ones who must determine the arrangements for them.
00:21:57We have been violated. They attacked
00:22:00our country. They martyred our great leader.
00:22:03They martyred his grandson. They martyred our great military
00:22:07commanders. And they martyred thousands of our oppressed
00:22:10and defenseless people. Here, we are the ones
00:22:14who must determine for them according
00:22:17to what rule they should proceed. If they act against this,
00:22:21which I hope they don't, the Islamic Republic
00:22:24of Iran has very heavy plans for them.
00:22:27Of course, Dr., in my opinion, if we look
00:22:31a bit more closely at the developments
00:22:35and statements of senior US officials,
00:22:38the scene is completely clear. Rubio, after
00:22:41those civilizational remarks he made,
00:22:45had an interview with one of the media outlets
00:22:49close to Trump. He made a very clear
00:22:52and important point regarding his
00:22:54allies, international organizations, and other
00:22:58countries of the world in line with the "America First"
00:23:02policy. He explicitly stated that our
00:23:05allies are defined in line with our interests,
00:23:09and international organizations are also treated the same
00:23:13way. That is, we see them positively
00:23:16only when they strengthen our interests. With this
00:23:25perspective, America is not looking for a win-win
00:23:28negotiation. It always follows the win-lose path
00:23:31and simply says my interests must be secured.
00:23:33Well, what will be the outcome with this
00:23:37approach? Look, Dr. Saifi, right now,
00:23:40on the political scene and in the political
00:23:44sphere of the world, we are seeing a chaotic
00:23:47Europe. In the past few days, please note,
00:23:50most major European countries like
00:23:54Germany and France have experienced unrest,
00:23:56all of which are weaknesses, and even acknowledged.
00:24:00German Chancellor Merz officially announced
00:24:04it. You see, the famous French President,
00:24:07they all came and announced that the problems we are
00:24:11currently seeing in our own society are all
00:24:15due to the war that America has started against Iran. And this is why
00:24:18they officially told Trump in many interviews,
00:24:22when he was sitting and they were on his left
00:24:26and right, that we will not be with you in this war,
00:24:30because our interests do not dictate
00:24:32it. I must address your question. Today,
00:24:36America's allies are not those allies
00:24:39who, as the "troika" of Europe, always
00:24:43blindly followed America's policies. Now, when they
00:24:47saw internal pressure and this wave of people,
00:24:58well, the American war has affected all segments
00:25:01of society there. After all, the gasoline
00:25:04they use, the diesel they use, the gas they consume,
00:25:07all of these have caused the economic pillars
00:25:11of America's allies to shake, and we are seeing
00:25:15these tremors, and they are increasing day by day.
00:25:18Yes, Trump says these things because he naturally
00:25:22knows he's a person who lives in his own fantasies,
00:25:25and I feel that when this person wants to make
00:25:29himself overly newsworthy, he comes up with a so-called
00:25:33something. Perhaps in the two so-called
00:25:36unintended wars that were imposed on the Islamic Republic
00:25:40of Iran, they came and provided bases
00:25:43to them, and we have complete information.
00:25:47But now, those allies who used to come behind
00:25:51Trump and support him, that power no longer
00:25:55exists. Even much of the information
00:25:59we received shows that many European officials,
00:26:04through messages they sent to Trump, told him
00:26:08that if another war happens, it's true that you might
00:26:12want to make a propaganda move, but be careful
00:26:15that our economy and our sovereignty
00:26:18will be destabilized here. And they officially told
00:26:21him that we will not be with you because
00:26:25the strike of the Islamic Republic of Iran is a very
00:26:28effective strike that Europeans have not experienced in these recent decades.
00:26:40And as Major General Rezaei said,
00:26:44they must also pay the price for these
00:26:47so-called assassinations and crimes they committed
00:26:51against the Iranian people. Very well, let's go back
00:26:55to the region a bit. Our regional countries,
00:26:59three of their senior security officials
00:27:01have also traveled to Tehran: Pakistan, Saudi Arabia,
00:27:05and Turkey. And before that, three European countries
00:27:08announced that we are ready for dialogue
00:27:12with Iran. And then those three neighboring
00:27:15countries came, and even though they themselves
00:27:19were pursuing their own policies outside the region,
00:27:23they also signed agreements with each other. But in the end,
00:27:26they came to the conclusion that, first, they cannot
00:27:30confront America, and second,
00:27:36this trend tells us that both in the world
00:27:39and in the region, Iran must be seen.
00:27:43If we want security stability and regional
00:27:47stability, how do we evaluate the trend
00:27:51when they have reached this conclusion? How
00:27:54are they still drawing other plans?
00:27:58I wish these countries had reached this conclusion
00:28:01that you mentioned sooner.
00:28:08Because they have realized this reality that
00:28:11order, security, and peace are not
00:28:14imported. If Americans truly
00:28:18believe in this, why can't they provide
00:28:22their own security? In fact, one of the reasons
00:28:25they came to Iran is precisely because they
00:28:29saw that they were very much destabilized
00:30:24in terms of security. And this rule and this statement
00:30:28that you made, they will only realize
00:30:31it when America cannot bring
00:30:35peace, security, and tranquility
00:30:37to them. And this has been a result that they
00:30:41have achieved with the power and military
00:30:44might of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and they
00:30:48believe that any movement that wants to happen
00:30:51in the political sphere of the West
00:30:54Asian region, certainly one of the influential
00:30:58forces and countries
