00:04:08in
00:04:12a a
00:04:17hello again, let us begin the news review segment of this news
00:04:20bulletin. ibron's top security
00:04:24official has slammed US president Donald Trump's contradictory positions on
00:04:28negotiations with Iran, saying His remarks are aimed at swaying global
00:04:32energy prices. Secretary of
00:04:34of Iran Supreme National Security Council Major General Mohsen Rasai
00:04:38made the comment
00:04:38in a social media post. Razi said the world should not be distracted by the
00:04:42US president's mixed signals from no
00:04:45of negotiations of to were ready to talk, stressing that
00:04:47the stakes around oil and
00:04:49the straights have changed. Rezay was alluding
00:04:52to Iran's full control over the
00:04:53a straight of formus and Yemen's army, yemeny armys control
00:04:56of the
00:04:56of bubble mandab straight, both of which vital energy. export roots
00:05:00to global markets. Rey stressed that there will be no talks until
00:05:04Iran's conditions are met and this position is definitive.
00:05:08His comments came after Trump said the US
00:05:11of is open to
00:05:11a engaging with Iran. a peace agreement, Trump's remarks contradicted his
00:05:15earlier statements in which he said talks between Iran and the US were
00:05:19neither taking place nor scheduled alleging that the straight of her mous
00:05:22was open. Well, I'm going to discuss all of
00:05:26that with my guest in this news review programs
00:05:30in house analyst joining us from arterban studios and also Mr.
00:05:34Ehsan Khusan Najad journalist and political commentator joining us from
00:05:38Frankfurt. Very good to have you both on this news review program. Yes,
00:05:41and I'm going to start. conversation with you, let us start with the immediate
00:05:45issue: trump says the US is open to engaging with Iran
00:05:49while only recently saying that no talks was happening between Iran and the
00:05:53US and nothing was to be scheduled even anytime soon, how should we
00:05:57interpret these apparently contradictory
00:06:06question, we have been actually observing such
00:06:09contradictory comments from the president the
00:06:13US in the last months from the
00:06:17beginning the actually, I would
00:06:19say 12 day war, where these
00:06:23actually comments culminated, and
00:06:27this is actually a strategy by the US president
00:06:30according to the situation in which he
00:06:34is, and he is actually trying
00:06:37to compensate for
00:06:40the actually defeats. he has experienced in
00:06:44the battlefield, so now the
00:06:48us and he is convinced that a full
00:06:52actually range military attack on Iran does
00:06:56not work anymore, this is what has already
00:06:59been actually experienced, tried, and it doesn't work
00:07:03anymore, so what can we do actually
00:07:06to control the situation in our
00:07:10favor, and this is actually... what he is doing and
00:07:14i have to say that this is not a one-sided
00:07:17strategy, we can also see
00:07:20something -
00:07:23similar on the Iranian side, on the Iranian side we also have
00:07:27this strategy of good cp and bad and
00:07:31there we also see some sometimes contradictory comment,
00:07:35some the Iranian officials - try to
00:07:39actually state that we are ready to go back.
00:07:42negotiations and on the other hand, the badc
00:07:46strategy is to say, we will not do that, we will not
00:07:50submit to the us actually
00:07:53demands until all our conditions are fires, so it's
00:07:57not full, so and
00:08:01also controlling the oil oil price, all market
00:08:05and also the internal situation like the approval
00:08:09the president Trump before the midterm election.
00:08:13in their own hand, right? Mayam, um,
00:08:17General Mosan Re is saying that the world should not be distracted by the
00:08:20American mixed signals, um, um, and that energy
00:08:24prices, he says the energy prices are part the calculation
00:08:27always, how significant is the oil market dimension
00:08:31in understanding Washington's current position? What Iran
00:08:35understood very early on was that the only way to stop the US
00:08:39regime from committing aggressions is actually to make sure that it's pays a heavy
00:08:43price as result because of course Iran saw that it was in in the
00:08:47middle of negotiations when the country was targeted twice
00:08:51uh and thousands of civilians were murdered as result so what
00:08:54Iran did uh was to make sure that the price of brent
00:08:58goes higher and now we have uh for instance for today the branch
00:09:02price has exceeded
00:09:04$1.7 addition to that price also there's
00:09:08the price of insurance because before the US is really
00:09:11aggression most recent US is really aggression on Iran because we know there has been
00:09:15two in less than year uh the price
00:09:19of insurance was about five cents per barrel uh but
00:09:23as result of this aggression as result of uh Iran
00:09:26actually enforcing its uh policies over the straight of form was which is its
00:09:30own territorial waters and uh targeting ships that
00:09:34were uh actually choosing the unauthorized route
00:09:38uh then there is heavier price to pay for insurance so from five cents
00:09:42is it went to $11 uh and a half, which is a of course
00:09:46huge difference, it will also add to the price of brand uh,
00:09:50and then of course that would translate higher gas prices for
00:09:54Americans, it would also transport translate to
00:09:58higher transportation prices and the price of everything, including
00:10:01food uh is going to go higher, of course we know that as
00:10:05result of Iran's exercise of control over the straight of form was, there
00:10:09were lot of American farmers who were not able. to uh
00:10:13secure fertilizers for their crops, also adding to
00:10:17the price of food, and of course a big portion of Trump's
00:10:21voters, actually, and Iran has allowed different way.
00:10:25for it, Iran is basically saying that you have to abide by our conditions,
00:10:29and just as major general Mosen Razali said,
00:10:32until the U.S. abides by Iran's conditions, there is not going to be any
00:10:36talks period, so Iran had already laid out its conditions that the
00:10:40US of course has to pay reparations for this unprovoked aggression
00:10:44against Iran, that the US has to respect Iran's sovereignty, it has
00:10:47to, and of course that would include Iran's territorial waters
00:10:51and in the Islamabad Mou it was
00:10:55noted that Iran gets to actually
00:10:58decide how to uh basically the administration is on
00:11:02Iran and among the coastal countries and it has to be of course based
00:11:06on both international rules and the sovereign rules the countries which
00:11:10is exactly what Iran did. Iran set up a Persian gulf straight
00:11:13authority uh to make sure that these vessels that cross the straight of
00:11:17hormos are not used to arm American bases and
00:11:21for Iran to suffer the same tragedy a dead unfortunately. Right.
00:11:25Yes, that brings us to the straight of hormoos. Iran is now explicitly
00:11:28linking the situation in the straight of hormos with the straight of Bobble
00:11:32Mandup and the positioning the Ansara forces there. How
00:11:36important do you think the combination these two factors are going to
00:11:39be in drawing out the right conclusion to this
00:11:43conflict and this war? It was
00:11:47actually clear from the beginning the war that these two
00:11:50strategic points are very important
00:11:54and have very crucial actually role in the
00:11:58ending the war, so how the war comes to an end,
00:12:01and actually the reason that it has
00:12:05taken so long that Iran actually,
00:12:09with the help of ansarullah managed
00:12:13finally to control the babal mandas other
00:12:16situations, so Iran had to overcome many
00:12:19other issues before reaching this point,
00:12:23and if these actually problems hadn't been there,
00:12:27we would have seen the current situation much
00:12:30earlier, so in effect
00:12:34it's it has turned from actually
00:12:37um military war to
00:12:41a financial war, it's an economic war, and
00:12:44the key point to win the war is resilience,
00:12:48also then that means the nation or the side which
00:12:52is more resilient with fine actually win
00:12:56this war at least before we enter a third
00:13:00world war, so this is another story, and the
00:13:04control these two actually
00:13:07strategic points, geographic points is not
00:13:10just actually limited to
00:13:14geography, but also to the economic side the aspect, by
00:13:17controlling these two points, Iran and its allies are able
00:13:21actually to impose economic...
00:13:25pressure on the US and its allies, and
00:13:28if Iran can keep its actually
00:13:31internal difficulties, the hardship that people are
00:13:35going through, the financial hardships for
00:13:39quite a time, it is actually hope that the
00:13:42us and its allies will back up, back
00:13:46off, and actually the war will be one by Iran and
00:13:50stalus, right, may obviously the control
00:13:53the straight of... mandab is giving Iran more confidence now
00:13:57general
00:13:58is saying that there will be no negotiations until all of Iran's
00:14:01conditions are going to be met by the American side and that is
00:14:05definitive position. What does that tell us about Teran's
00:14:08assessment of it bargaining its bargaining power at this
00:14:12particular moment in time? I mean we have a situation where the
00:14:15US has used all the options that it had within as
00:14:19disposal so we're talking about the cases of extreme sanctions in Iran
00:14:23we're talking about coup attempts. in the country that of course failed
00:14:27uh we're talking about more than two military
00:14:30aggressions against the country in the middle of negotiations a single year and
00:14:34we saw that every single way failed, but for Iran there are actually very
00:14:38many options and of course because Iran has stood uh
00:14:42with the resistance front to begin
00:14:44with uh then I mean this it has already shown to its allies
00:14:48and the region that basically we're all in this together and of course they have understood
00:14:52that for many years, we have seen how the
00:14:55ansarullah resistance,
00:14:57hezballah resistance, shabi, all these resistant groups that were
00:15:01actually created in response to American
00:15:04Hejamonic uh interventions, they have all
00:15:08been working together to make sure that the region is safer because they
00:15:11understand that if any one country is attacked by the US and nobody
00:15:15else is safe, and of course they understand that there is the
00:15:19uh plots, there's the the uh the plot the bigger
00:15:23Israel, the greater Israel are trying to the you know the US is trying to
00:15:27push uh to actually enforce this hegemony over the region and so
00:15:31that's a threat for everybody in the region and in fact it's not only a threat for muslims, it's
00:15:35a threat for christians and Jews as well. and so they have been working
00:15:39together in the straight of hormos uh controlling about
00:15:43fourth the the world oil traffic and with bobl
00:15:46mandab about fifth of world oil traffic uh to make sure
00:15:50that anybody who commits an aggression on the region any these
00:15:54nations the region will have to pay a price therefore pushing
00:15:58Americans out the region and of course with their attacks
00:16:02on the US and the allies that are the US
00:16:05proxies basically that have facilitated US attacks on Iran
00:16:09and other neighboring countries that they are also pushing out
00:16:13American bases outside the region so that all these people
00:16:16could enjoy peace and security together. Right, yes
00:16:20and final question, ultimately, where do all these latest
00:16:24developments leave us, are we actually moving towards um some sort
00:16:28of um dialogue opening, diplomatic opening between Iran and the
00:16:32US, or are both sides just trying to gain more
00:16:35leverage while preparing. another round of
00:16:38confrontation, I
00:16:42believe diplomatic actually
00:16:44negotiation is not
00:16:48so actually easy to achieve, because it's not
00:16:51just about what the US and what Iran
00:16:55wants, but also what Israel wants,
00:16:58as your colleague actually mentioned,
00:17:02a big part of this actually conflict
00:17:06has... roots in Israel's interest
00:17:10and I personally believe as long
00:17:13as Israel
00:17:15actually insists on his own
00:17:19interests and this plan the great
00:17:21Israel is on the table, such
00:17:25negotiations are not easy to achieve and
00:17:29if they are they will be temporary, so in long
00:17:33term I i don't see actually an end to
00:17:37such. unless the issue of Israel is
00:17:40resolved in some way. Mr.
00:17:43Hasan. Indeed the pleasure to have you both on this news
00:17:47review program. That brings us to the conclusion of this news review
00:17:51segment, but of course a few moments I will be back with more
00:17:53news.
00:18:09What happens when faith changes the way you see yourself and the
00:18:12world?
00:18:18This documentary explores Sarah's spiritual journey from Latin
00:18:22America to Islam revealing the struggles, questions
00:18:26and quiet strength that shape her new life within the Shia Muslim
00:18:29community.
00:18:44Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard's course says it has shot down a US
00:18:48MQ1 drone over the straight of hormos a short statement, the
00:18:52IRGC said the air defense system of its aerospace force
00:18:55targeted and destroyed the drone in western parts of Hormus.
00:18:59Iran's armed forces have shot down scores of American drones and
00:19:03other aircrafts including MQ9 Reapers since the imposed
00:19:07US israely war on Iran began in February, some days ago
00:19:10Iran also sees the US military underwater drone in the straight
00:19:14of
00:19:14Hormus.
00:19:21The Islamic Revolution Guards core and the Iranian army have stressed growing
00:19:25unity and cooperation between the two forces, saying their cohesion has
00:19:29strengthened the country's ability to confront the enemies, IRGC

00:20:07technology and
00:20:08weaponry.
00:20:14our correspondent has interviewed former ia chief
00:20:18inspector yusiri abushadi on the margins
00:20:21the conference the international atomic energy
00:20:24agency in vienna and it's about Austria's move to
00:20:28revoke the visa of Iranian nuclear chief. let us take a
00:20:32listen
00:20:36very bad for Austria affairs. first of all, I'm very unhappy really that this
00:20:40is the first time to happen in Austria that they withdraw a
00:20:43visa for political reason and not
00:20:46allow the head the mission and the
00:20:50vice president of Iran to come to attend the
00:20:54general conference, this something didn't happen except
00:20:58in New York when the US
00:21:00sometimes prevented
00:21:03some politician to come to the United
00:21:07Nation which is in violation of all the international
00:21:11laws, the interpretation the Austrian
00:21:14delegate was actually very poor to
00:21:17say that the... he checked with the security
00:21:21council for the sanctions and there was
00:21:25a misunderstanding the way they
00:21:28think that there is a sanction which is not
00:21:32and that is why they took this decision that was very
00:21:35weak the Iranian and actually the russian
00:21:39delegation replied to that and of course
00:21:42denounce the false declaration the
00:21:46Austria they assess that there is a sanction which is
00:21:50Actually there was no sanction, sanction ended in October last
00:21:53year formally, and there was no
00:21:57really clear reason except political pressure to
00:22:01prevent the delegate from coming, and that give very
00:22:05bad image about Austria, and Austria is
00:22:09not just follow to follow what US
00:22:13says and it should have
00:22:15independent. At least three
00:22:19civilians have been. killed in the latest soudy air strikes on two yemen areas
00:22:23in the southwestern province of Thais, the Yemani health ministry said
00:22:26two the victims were children. Saudi fighter jets also bombed the
00:22:30government in the khadir district in Thais. The province
00:22:34has been and has seened a focus of Saudi air strikes the
00:22:38past days. Meanwile Yemen's armed forces launched a large scale
00:22:42missile and drone strikes that heavily damaged Saudi Arabia's king
00:22:45Khalid airbase in Hames Mushaid. They won the brother.
00:22:50operations if the Saudi aggression continued. Assar Allah also said
00:22:54it has captured additional strategic islands in southern red
00:22:57sea.
00:23:02Across thousands of square kilometers along the western coast, San
00:23:06forces executed the swift wide scale operation to clear
00:23:10Saudi backed Broxes from their long held positions.
00:23:13We spoke directly with the frontline fighters who led the
00:23:17operation. "We have been receiving distress
00:23:21calls from the citizens for over 4 years, they have no
00:23:25electricity, the heat is literally killing them, no gas and no
00:23:29decent living conditions. They were even prevented from
00:23:32accessing these
00:23:33coasts.
00:23:38We clashed with the enemy, the treachous mercenary who sold his honor for the Saudi
00:23:42Rial by the will of God Almighty, the confrontation
00:23:46unfolded beyond anything we could expect or imagine.
00:23:50fled like animals fleeing from lions. it was an
00:23:53unprecedented victory and we thank God almighty for

00:25:57War takes lives, but sometimes it takes something even
00:26:01more cruel that... chance to say goodbye. this is story of
00:26:05a boy who never came home following a bloody
00:26:08unprovoked war waged by the US in Israel against
00:26:11Iran. on the morning of February 28th,
00:26:152026, seven-year-old Makon Nasiri left home for school just
00:26:19as he always did. It was his birthday, his mother helped him put on his blue
00:26:23jacket to keep him warm in the cool morning air. She was preparing
00:26:27Makan's favorite food for lunch. With a
00:26:30quiet excitement of a... first grade boy, he walked into Shajar
00:26:34Tayba elementary school, never knowing it would be the last time anyone
00:26:38would see him. At 11:15 am, tomahaw crew's missiles
00:26:42struck the school within seconds, classrooms collapsed, walls
00:26:46crumbled, the sound of children, reading and laughing were replaced
00:26:50by dust, fire and silence, rescue workers for
00:26:53days, parents search with their own hands, one by one the
00:26:57victims were found, families were finally able to bury their
00:27:00children. but one child never came home,
00:27:04mokon Nasiri, his father searched through the rubble from the very first
00:27:08afternoon, his uncle together with relative spent 46
00:27:11days searching every corner the destroyed school and the
00:27:15surrounding fields. more than 100 DNA tests were carried
00:27:19out. Investigators searched for anything, a strand of hair, the
00:27:22smallest trace that could bring certainty to a grieving
00:27:26family. Nothing. The only things ever found were crumpled blue
00:27:30jacket and a single small trainer. discovered far from the
00:27:33school after the blast had thrown it into a nearby orchard.
00:27:37experts later concluded that the American missile had struck
00:27:41directly where Macon had been standing. The explosion was so
00:27:45devastating that no identifiable remains were left
00:27:48behind. For most parents, grief begins when they lay
00:27:52their child to rest. Macon's family was
00:27:56denied even that final act of love. They were forced to bury empty
00:28:00grave, a grave with nobody beneath it. Only a name carved
00:28:03into stone. Even today, Malkan's mother returns to the ruins the
00:28:07school. Story reminds us that the deepest wound of war
00:28:11is not only the lives it takes. Sometimes the greatest cruelty is
00:28:15leaving mother with nowhere to hold her final
00:28:18goodbye.
00:28:28For bombs stop falling, casualty figures are tallied, names are added.
00:28:32to lists, but numbers cannot measure the lives that unravel
00:28:36after the explosions. wars count those killed by
00:28:39missiles, they rarely count those who survived them and
00:28:43may later die of grief. yes, you heard that right,
00:28:47grief. 31 year old sayid became
00:28:51one of those. in the early hours of march 26th, a US
00:28:55is really strike reduced her family home in asf as hapto neighborhood
00:28:59to rubble. her husband, local football coach,
00:29:02age five and three were killed, age five and three
00:29:06were killed, around them, nine homes were destroyed and 24
00:29:10people died from the US Israely attack. Alham survived, for
00:29:14seven hours, rescuers searched through concrete and twisted
00:29:18steel before pulling her from beneath the depre. the fallen
00:29:22sofa had shielded her head from the collapsing building, but her
00:29:26injuries were severe. her greatest wounds, however, were
00:29:30invisible. weeks later, a video at home standing on the
00:29:34ruins of her home spread across Iran, in her hands was
00:29:37hundred node rescued from the rubble, one her young
00:29:41son had written before the attack. As she read it,
00:29:45her voice faltered, around her lay the remains the
00:29:49life she had built. Her father says that after losing her
00:29:53husband.
