00:01:23Hello from Teran Bahman Ray and this is Press TV news
00:01:26GMT. It's GMT.
00:01:31Pristivi's west bank correspondent kahamet has been abducted by Israeli
00:01:35forces near the occupied city of Bethlehem, the abduction took place
00:01:39after weeks of incitement against her by Israeli
00:01:42of settlers. Nakahmed covered violence by Israeli settlers towards
00:01:45Palestinians in the occupied West bank.
00:01:48of We have
00:01:48a report.
00:01:56Hamed reporting for Press TV tell the occupied West Bank.
00:02:07of These are
00:02:10of extracts from some
00:02:13of of the reports by press tv correspondent in the occupied west bank Naqa Hamed who has been
00:02:17abducted by Israeli forces. Naqa a Palestinian
00:02:21of journalist with American citizenship and the mother of three children
00:02:25was traveling with camera crew when the regime's troops stopped them
00:02:29a check. point near the town of Tuku, southeast of
00:02:33of Bethlehem. They released the
00:02:36of cameraman, but abducted nowmed. The press TV
00:02:39correspondent had been subjected to attacks and the smear
00:02:42campaign by zinis
00:02:44of accounts and social
00:02:45of media of for the past month. The campaign was launched in
00:02:49of august aftermet
00:02:50reported from Quosra, village in the west bank that saw
00:02:54intensified settler violence in Israely cracked down
00:02:57against
00:03:01of of Palestinians. Those social media accounts saw to intensify media campaign against Hamed by
00:03:05of posting similar content using nearly identical
00:03:08language. The campaign has been slammed as part of a
00:03:12targeted effort to put psychological and media pressure,
00:03:16restrict the space available to journalists and media outlets and
00:03:20of obstruct press TV's coverage of Israeli crimes from reaching
00:03:24audiences around the world. Nahmed was also
00:03:28injured in December last year. while reporting from galandia
00:03:31refugee camp after Israeli forces fired
00:03:35rubber bullets, the smear campaign violence and abduction or
00:03:39part of a familiar Israeli pattern, all are aimed
00:03:43at stifling the truth and hiding
00:03:45of the regimes crimes. the arrest of a journalist
00:03:49today is business as usual for uh for
00:03:53Israel, the
00:03:54of Israeli government has no desire for people around the world to know what's
00:03:58happening to know.
00:04:00in uh the extent
00:04:01of the horrific genocide they're committing, that's why they have murdered or
00:04:05assassinated uh as many as 300
00:04:08of journalists in less than three years. i don't want this uh information
00:04:12coming out. of course, anyone in Palestine with
00:04:15a cellphone internet connection is able to get information out. the
00:04:19palestinian journalist syndicate has documented scores of violations
00:04:23of journalists by Israeli forces
00:04:26of and settlers in the west bank in August alone. the group said The
00:04:30violations included assaults on media crews, obstruction
00:04:33of their work, arrests and detentions and attacks
00:04:37on journalistic equipment. There have been
00:04:40of plenty of similar cases in
00:04:43in Gaza. in One year ago, the Israeli military killed five journalists
00:04:46in double strike on the Al-Naser Hospital in
00:04:50southern parts
00:04:51of the besieg street, no matter whether it's Gaza, the West Bank
00:04:55of or anywhere else, it's part
00:05:00of of the regime's nature to clamp down and... free speech and any effort aimed at reflecting the
00:05:04of truth, as there's really existence is synonymous with violence and
00:05:08oppression, but those measures won't stop genuine
00:05:12of journalism from broadcasting the truth and continuing the mission of
00:05:15documenting history and exposing
00:05:18realities. Palestinian
00:05:22journalist and commentator Abubakar abed joined us earlier from Dublin
00:05:26to share his thoughts the abduction of pressed Palestinian
00:05:29correspondent by the Israeli occupation forces in the
00:05:33occupied West
00:05:40have covered 19 months of. side in Gaza, I
00:05:44was very subjected to so much horrors and I
00:05:48could have been killed any time. It's also worth noting and
00:05:52reminding people that Named is an American citizen, she holds the
00:05:55US citizenship, she's a mother of three children, so
00:05:59when she is reporting, she's reporting with
00:06:03determination and with with unprecedented
00:06:06great, and her situation is unbearable, it's not like any
00:06:10other journalist across the... global coming from the outside to
00:06:14report, she was interrogated for 30 minutes, humiliated with her
00:06:18two uh colleagues, ask to sit to on the ground and
00:06:21then she told she, the Israel forces or the Israel
00:06:25soldiers who kidnapped her told her that you are
00:06:29detained, when you talk about hamid
00:06:32like for the very past monthly disappearing
00:06:36her, and of course the American government will not do anything about it, they will
00:06:40make up the news, they will... come stories to ensure
00:06:44that Israel will continue breaching the humanitarian law and it will continue
00:06:48breaching the humanitarian law and
00:06:49it will continue suppressing the
00:06:51truth.
00:06:54journalists in Gaza are facing double threat to Israely attacks
00:06:58targeting them documenting the war and a collapsing healthcaresis
00:07:02without adequate treatment. press tv has
00:07:06spoken to one gaza photo journalist who continues to
00:07:09document the suffering around him while battling severe illness
00:07:13of his
00:07:14own,
00:07:20one hand holds a camera while the other one is stitched
00:07:24with a canula as a freelance photo journalist in Gaza,iz has
00:07:27dedicated years to capturing the faces of people
00:07:31in during war, displacement and
00:07:34loss.
00:07:38i have been covering and documenting what has been happening in Gaza since
00:07:422012, my motive has been to convey the message the people
00:07:46of Gaza to the entire world that they deserve to live in
00:07:50dignity and to defy the systematic blackout imposed by
00:07:54the Israeli regime. After completing
00:07:58his assignments, he puts down his camera and begins a
00:08:01personal journey through Gaza's severely damaged healthcare
00:08:05system, injuring long ways for medical care and is
00:08:08struggling to obtain essential medicines.
00:08:15My suffering with the disease began in 2022 when I
00:08:18started experiencing severe stomach pain. Unfortunately,
00:08:22doctors in Gaza were unable to properly diagnose my condition. I
00:08:26was medically evacuated to hospital in the West Bank where doctors
00:08:30told me that I was suffering from Crones disease, an immune disease
00:08:34that causes severe pain an inflammation in the digestive
00:08:38system. The disease requires biological
00:08:42therapy.
00:08:51As you know, the war erupted on
00:08:52October 7th, 2023, and I was unable to take my first dose,
00:08:56which was scheduled
00:08:57for the following day, consequently, my health has been getting worse day
00:09:01after day. Over the past three months, I have been admitted to the
00:09:05hospital 13 times. Muz is
00:09:09among nearly 13,000 patients wearing for med.
00:09:12evacuation, but the situation is dia with only a
00:09:16tricle of patients being allowed through the waf crossing, even
00:09:20as his own condition worsens, he continues to document the
00:09:24stories of others suffering around
00:09:26him. like all the Palestinian patients in
00:09:30Gaza, I'm literally dying slowly as the Israeli regime
00:09:34continues to prevent us from leaving Gaza for medical treatment. guess
00:09:38what, many the patients whose cases I documented passed away
00:09:42before the... names could even be added to the
00:09:44list has another mission too, he
00:09:48has vowed to follow in the footsteps of his brother
00:09:51Muhammad,
00:09:57my brother Muhammad was
00:09:58the first Palestinian journalist to be killed in the Israeli
00:10:01war. Since that moment, it has been very clear that
00:10:05targeting Palestinian journalists in Gaza was part of a
00:10:09systematic policy to deter us from reporting the truth.
00:10:13However, we will persist in exposing the true face the
00:10:16Israeli occupation. While he continues to document the
00:10:20suffering of others, why is himself becoming one
00:10:24the? stories he once stood behind the camera to tell he is
00:10:28documenting a humanitarian crisis while becoming part
00:10:32of it, a journalist struggling to preserve the stories of
00:10:36others as he fights survive his own illness
00:10:40under the blockade the central area
00:10:43of
00:10:44gazab the
00:10:48Iranian forem ministry has strongly slamed german chancellors
00:10:52anti Iran accusation saying his narrative of "the US Israi
00:10:55aggression is knowingly distorted. The ministry spokesman made the
00:10:59comment a social media post in reaction to Fredrich Metz's
00:11:03claim about what he called the Iran War Teran's peaceful
00:11:07nuclear program and resistance groups. Ismail Bagai said it
00:11:11was the US and Israel at started the war of aggression and Germany
00:11:14failed to show even the minimum moral courage required to deplore
00:11:18that. He also rejected Merzer's characterization of resistance
00:11:22groups as Iran's proxies saying. They are independent
00:11:26actors with their own causes and calculations. Bukai said
00:11:30those groups are fighting for self-determination, freedom and dignity
00:11:34against occupation. He also called the German leaders claim about
00:11:37Iran having a military nuclear program as repetition of Israel
00:11:41speak live which is fabricated by the regime's
00:11:44apologises. But I added that the west Asia region should not
00:11:48have to pay the price for Germany's guilt complex or its habit of
00:11:52appeasement with bullies.
00:11:58Political commentator, Saip shav calls the German chancellor's
00:12:02decision to blame Iran for the war pathetic, arguing
00:12:06that Iran was defending itself after being attacked during
00:12:09negotiations.
00:12:14Even the American media itself and politicians
00:12:17admits that today, they the one who
00:12:21started this war, illegal war in Iran.
00:12:25"Iran was going to the sixth round of
00:12:29negotiation with the Americans when they
00:12:33start attacked with the zin entity Iran in that 12th days
00:12:36war, so the the the whole thing is well known to the
00:12:40international community, but what a bathetic man comes and
00:12:44show how he is becoming and his country is studies, this
00:12:48is very dangerous because this man now is been
00:12:52militarizing his own country." to push it in
00:12:56further wars against the Russians, this is in
00:13:00the days to come, United States of America militarizing Germany
00:13:03and militarizing Japan as well, so these things we have to
00:13:07keep an eye wide open to what they are
00:13:11playing, so what he's coming out with, he's coming out
00:13:15with from background that Germany
00:13:19becoming more militarized and
00:13:22involved, Germany is part the... E3, which
00:13:26is the supposed to be part
00:13:30the GCBA, the last point, and
00:13:33they pushed and
00:13:37creating the bullet sized kind of report
00:13:41by the
00:13:41IEA.
00:13:46Political analyst John Bost says Germany has become an American
00:13:50colony and its chancellor understands that following Washington's
00:13:53policies is... necessary to remain in
00:13:56office,
00:14:01there is no doubt, and nobody says
00:14:05differently that Iran was attacked by
00:14:08America on Israeli orders, that's
00:14:11clear even in Washington, and since Martz's
00:14:15own country is an occupied military
00:14:19colony the United States, if he wants to keep his
00:14:22job, he should stop disagre. being with the
00:14:26government that controls his country, which is the United States.
00:14:30It's as simple as that, the man is delusional, his
00:14:33own party knows that he's not representing the
00:14:37German people, and the German people are voting in
00:14:41massive groups to support the
00:14:44alternative of Deutschland, which is a
00:14:47German national party which is opposed to
00:14:51war and which is opposed to continuing Germany.
00:14:55as an occupied American military
00:14:59colony,
00:15:03the 70th general conference the international atomic energy
00:15:07agency is on the way in Vienna, beyond the political
00:15:10debates, the conference gives researchers from member states an
00:15:14opportunity to learn about the latest technological and scientific
00:15:18advances in the nuclear industry. Ibran has a strong presence
00:15:21at the event press to energy agencies channel conference in. Beyond
00:15:25the diplomatic delegations, almost 4000 people are attending this year's
00:15:29conference to share the latest developments in nuclear science. At the
00:15:33side event, the atomic energy organization of Iran showcased the
00:15:37country. latest scientific achievements in nuclear
00:15:41medicine, in Iran actually we achieved to
00:15:44have the different type the solutions for the nuclear medicine for the
00:15:48diagnostic and also the therapy to cure the people for the
00:15:52better treatment and at the moment we have more than
00:15:5575 different products in the portfolio the products which
00:15:59is the one the biggest portfolio
00:16:03among the producers the nuclear medicine. Iran operates more than
00:16:07200. 13 nuclear medicine centers, scientists are
00:16:10also seeking to expand the field beyond the country's
00:16:14borders, in the middle east we are the leader, one the
00:16:18leaders in the production and in
00:16:21supplying more than
00:16:2376 different type the radio
00:16:26pharmaceuticals. the nuclear elements for these pharmaceuticals are mainly
00:16:30produced in Iran itself, most the radio isotos that we
00:16:34need as the radio pharmace to as
00:16:36the raw material. for the radio pharmaceutical production are producing in
00:16:40Iran, in the Iranian and the government facilities, they are
00:16:44producing that, we have very big basket the big portfolio
00:16:48the different radio pharmaceuticals, as a leading institution in
00:16:51science and emerging technologies, the atomic energy organization of
00:16:55Iran is committed to advancing scientific knowledge and
00:16:59translating it into peaceful practical solutions that
00:17:02benefit society. We were on the sanction, we couldn't
00:17:06import this. type of instrument, fortunately we
00:17:10are for ourself, we are manufacturing all
00:17:14this type of industries, in case
00:17:17of also nuclear power, we are advanced
00:17:21a lot, we are able to
00:17:24manufacture most part the nuclear power plants and
00:17:28reactor of course research reactors, so Iran is
00:17:31pioneer in the field of nuclear industry, despite
00:17:35all this... sanction and pressure they have
00:17:39created on us, what i can tell
00:17:42you, the sanction has not stopped us. Iran is
00:17:46established itself as a leading country in nuclear science and
00:17:50technology, the country continues to develop its nuclear industry
00:17:53despite sanctions, the assassination of its
00:17:57scientists by the US and Israel and attacks by the two
00:18:01regimes its research centers over the past
00:18:04year
00:18:05did rejected Saudi Arabia's false claim. that the Yemani forces
00:18:08targeted Mecca calling it a desperate attempt to rally the public
00:18:12opinion in favor the regime. Madial Mashad said Ameny people
00:18:16have demonstrated their commitment to Islamic holy sights and are ready to
00:18:20make sacrifices in defense the Grand Mask just as they
00:18:24support Alaksa mask yet that those who gifted the covering of
00:18:28carbas to the late American sex offender Jeffrey Upsteen out the
00:18:32ones to target Mecca and Islamic holy sites. Mashath
00:18:35noted that instead of raising. accusations against Yemen, the
00:18:39Saudi Regime should have rallied Muslim peoples when the criminal US
00:18:43President Trump insulted Mecca and depicted Kaaba an
00:18:47inappropriate manner. He stressed that such claims no longer
00:18:50deceive Arab and Muslim peoples, just as earlier claims about Yemen's
00:18:54threats to international navigation failed to do so. Earlier
00:18:58member of Yemen's ansarullah political bureau Muhammad al
00:19:01Bukhaiti also rejected Saudi Arabia's
00:19:04accusations saying they stem from the regimes. fear and
00:19:08confusion over Yemen's missile and drone
00:19:10strikes.
00:19:18author and journalist Robert Fontina says Saudi Arabia's attempts to
00:19:22gain sympathy in the muslim world by leveling accusations
00:19:26against yemensarlah movement will also
00:19:28fail.
00:19:33the idea that is would
00:19:36are threaten. Mecca any way is
00:19:39ludicrous, the huti regime
00:19:43is completely respectful the
00:19:47muslim holy sites and of Islam in general. The
00:19:50comment about the secret covering being given
00:19:54to Jeffrey Epstein is very telling
00:19:57that the US president would give such
00:20:01sacred Islamic relic to uh a convicted
00:20:05sex offender. those that's where the disrespect is,
00:20:09that's where the the disrespect for mecca, islam
00:20:13comes into play, nothing Yemen has done that, I have
00:20:16seen any way indicates disrespect
00:20:20for Islam or for the holy city of Mecca, that is the
00:20:24goal of Saudi Arab Arabian
00:20:27statement
00:20:28in in wanting to gain the support and sympathy
00:20:32the other the leaders and the
00:20:36populations, especially the... populations these other Muslim nations,
00:20:40but as I said,
00:20:40I don't see that succeeding at
00:20:42all.
00:20:46Top Democratic representative on the US house is for. Affairs
00:20:50committee says he will not support US president Trump
00:20:53administration's bomb sale to Israel. Gregory Meeks
00:20:57said he would not support the sale of 2000 pound bombs to
00:21:00Israel over concerns that ammunitions would be not would not be used
00:21:04accord in accordance with international law. Meeks added that the Trump
00:21:08administration's proposed sale of thousands of two thousand pound
00:21:12bombs raises grave unresolved concerns about these
00:21:15munitions being used in densely populated areas of Gaza and.
00:21:20on his remarks came after revelations about the Trump administration's plan
00:21:24to sell to Israel ammunitions package worth 2.8
00:21:28billion dollars including tens of thousands of highly
00:21:31destructive 2000 pound bombs. Israel has already
00:21:35used heavy bombs hundreds of times in Gaza and Lebanon, including
00:21:39in areas it had designated say for civilians drawing
00:21:42sustained criticism from breit
00:21:45groups.
00:21:50The American president's offer of $500 to every
00:21:53adult citizen in return for a Republican sweep in the
00:21:57midterms has provoked massive skepticism and
00:22:00criticism. Many say it's effectively a bribe and also that
00:22:04it tries to take advantage of a population which has been racked
00:22:08by plometing purchasing power for years. Ramin Mazoiri has
00:22:12more from Washington
00:22:13DC.
00:22:17$500 in what many. amounts to
00:22:21bribing voters, US president Donald Trump has doubled
00:22:24down on his promise to give every adult citizen
00:22:28$5,000 if the Republicans retain
00:22:31control the House of Representatives and the Senate in
00:22:35November's mid-term elections and now they say oh the
00:22:38500 500 is going to happen 100% and the
00:22:42reason is because our country is taking it in trillions and
00:22:46trillions of dollars and it's going to happen because
00:22:50deserve it because they were preated so badly by the democrats and by
00:22:53v. the one-time payout would cost an estimated
00:22:571.2 trillion dollars or 3% the
00:23:00infamous 40 trillion in the annual budget for the department of war
00:23:04and the annual budget for the department of war and double the budget
00:23:08for medicare which provides healthcare for the elderly.
00:23:12after 10 years of making unprecedented promises
00:23:16and being accused of not delivering perhaps just...
00:23:20As often, voters appear to be incredibly
00:23:23skeptical. This man is not, has
00:23:27no integrity. He says things to get
00:23:31what he wants. Nobody's going to see a
00:23:34$5,00 check in America, except
00:23:38maybe the the politicians who don't need it. His
00:23:42so-called Trump dividend would require an act of
00:23:45Congress to make it happen, and while it's not exactly clear
00:23:49where's... huge amount of money would come from, many
00:23:53know the ultimate source. well, he's offered
00:23:561,76 at one point, he's offered
00:24:00$2,00 at one point. i think it's
00:24:04just a game, and
00:24:07if he were to pay any these amounts,
00:24:11it comes from people's taxes. many Americans may feel
00:24:15that they deserve the money. they pay average of about
00:24:1920%. their wages in state and federal
00:24:22taxes, but don't forget about raft of
00:24:25sales, property, gasoline and other taxes,
00:24:29and very often their own healthcare costs, and all for
00:24:33what is considered to be one the weakest social
00:25:04from bombs stop falling, casualty figures are tallied, names are
00:25:07added to list, but numbers cannot measure the lives that
00:25:11unravel after the explosions, wars count those killed by
00:25:15missiles, they rarely count those who survived them and may
00:25:19later... to die of grief, yes, you heard that right,
00:25:23grief. 31 year-old sayqi became
00:25:27one of those in the early hours of March 26, a US
00:25:30Israel strike reduced her family home after
00:25:34neighborhood to rubble. Her husband, local football coach
00:25:38Hussein Maliki and their two young sons, age five
00:25:42and three were killed. Around them, nine homes were destroyed and
00:25:4524 people died from the US Israely attack. Alham
00:25:49survived. For seven hours rescuers searched through
00:25:53concrete and twisted steel before pulling her from beneath the
00:25:57debris. A fallen sofa had shielded her head from the
00:26:00collapsing building, but her injured. were severe, her
00:26:04greatest wounds, however, were invisible. weeks later, a
00:26:07video of at home standing on the ruins of her home spread across
00:26:11Iran. in her hands was a hand-written note rescued from the
00:26:15rubble, one her young son had written before the
00:26:19attack. as she read it, her voice faltered. around
00:26:23her lay the remains the life she had built. her
00:26:27father says that after losing her husband, her children
00:26:30and her home, she was never. never the same, she withdrew
00:26:34from the world, spoke consently of her family and
00:26:38struggled to bear even ordinary sounds. after more than
00:26:42two months of overwhelming grief after losing her family in
00:26:46US Israely attack, she suffered fatal stroke and
00:26:50died. her story speaks to a quieter taller war of
00:26:53survivors who carry the destruction with them
00:26:57long after the dot settles. it also reflects a wider
00:27:01pattern of us. aggression across the region that has
00:27:05left behind a deeper tool not only a single moment of
00:27:08impact, but in the lasting human consequences that
00:27:12follow.
00:27:22July 31st, 2026, nighttime straight of
00:27:25Hormus, southern Iran. The United States launched a heavy
00:27:29wave of strikes against command centers, radars.
00:27:33surveillance systems and air defense positions across southern
00:27:36Iran, intended to make the skies over southern Iran safer for
00:27:40American aircraft. But just hours later, something
00:27:44unexpected happened. An
00:27:47American MQ9 Reaper was shot down over the straight of
00:27:50Hormus. The MQ9 is no ordinary
00:27:54drone, it is one of America's primary platforms for intelligence,
00:27:58surveillance, reconnaissance and precision strikes capable of remaining
00:28:01airborn. for more than a full day while carrying an advanced suite of
00:28:05sensors and weapons, and this was not the first reaper lost. since
00:28:09the beginning the war, Iran has taken around 50 MQ9
00:28:13Reapers out of operation, roughly one quarter the entire US
00:28:17Reaper fleet, but the real story was only beginning. Shortly
00:28:21afterward, an F-35 entered the picture, one the world's most
00:28:24advanced combat aircraft, designed specifically to penetrate
00:28:28sophisticated air defense networks, but stealth does not mean...
00:28:32visible, one radar may detect only faint signature,
00:28:36infrared sensor may pick up the heat from its engines, another system
00:28:40may detect its electronic emissions, and when the information from all
00:28:44these systems is connected through a single network, much clearer picture
00:28:48the target begins to emerge. that same night, the tracking the
00:28:51F-35 reached the level of a weapon's quality lock, a
00:28:55warning the pilot could not ignore, the F-35 did not continue
00:28:59its mission and quickly left the area, and perhaps the...
00:29:02That is the most important part the story. Air defense success does not
00:29:06always mean shooting an aircraft down. Sometimes
00:29:09it is enough to stop an aircraft designed to penetrate hostile
00:29:12airspace from completing its mission. And now, for the United
00:29:16States, the issue is no longer simply the loss of an
00:29:19MQ9 or the retreat of an F35. The bigger
00:29:23question is, how could a network whose radars and key components had been
00:29:27attacked only hours earlier remain operational and
00:29:31still force one of America's... is most advanced aircraft to abandon its
00:29:34mission, incident that now forces the United States to
00:29:38rethink not just a flight path, but its entire calculation over
00:29:42Iran's
00:29:43skies. The
00:29:47equation in Iran's skies is no longer the
00:29:50same.
