00:00:59a
00:01:11Good afternoon from Tehran, I am Bahman Duray and you're watching Press TV
00:01:14news. The Iranian armed forces khattam
00:01:18central command has warned the US and regional countries that any
00:01:21mistake could make them
00:01:22of targets
00:01:23of the country's painful attacks. The central command said Iran has
00:01:26information that the US is planning to resume host. it is against the
00:01:30country on the green light of some regional countries, the top
00:01:34military body said any such move by the US will expose its in
00:01:38to effective back to back and to effective back to back and troll
00:01:42command
00:01:42me war that Iran will not think Petrol command war that Iran will not think
00:01:46against adhering to the hyper against adhering to the
00:01:49hypo against adhering to the hypocritical approach towards
00:01:53Iran by supporting the US aggression, the central command said
00:01:57anyone complicit in vicious acts of "the US should not
00:02:01expect restraint from
00:02:02Iran.
00:02:06Iran's parliament speaker says the straight of Homus won't reopen as long as the
00:02:10in country's conditions are not
00:02:11met. Our
00:02:15positions are completely clear, rational, and non-negotiable. Our
00:02:19messages and conditions have been conveyed
00:02:21of explicitly to the other side through intermediaries, and the enemy knows well that the path
00:02:25of deception and unilateral imposition is closed, and until these
00:02:29conditions are..." met the inalienable rights
00:02:31of the Iranian nation are recognized and the Americans fulfill their commitments,
00:02:35there will be no possibility of
00:02:37a return to the previous negotiation framework or to reopen the straight of
00:02:40hormas. Galib emphasized the
00:02:44importance of fighting in negotiating at the same time, he said
00:02:48Tehron would use military force to push back its enemies and
00:02:51diplomacy to consolidate battlefield gains when the
00:02:54in time is right, his remarks came after Iran's top security official
00:02:58general. announced that Tehran had conveyed seven conditions
00:03:02to the US as
00:03:04in prerequisites for any talks, requisites for any talks, rese said
00:03:08Washington is no choice
00:03:09but exit wants to get out
00:03:11of the dire situation it has created in the region. The
00:03:15Islamic Republic says in order for Homus to reopen, wars in all
00:03:19of fronts must end
00:03:20of and that the naval blockade against Terran must be lifted. Terran
00:03:24also demands the release of Iranian frozen
00:03:26assets. My
00:03:30of Press TV colleague Ali Razak Paris says Taiwan has shown the path for the war to
00:03:34end, adding that Washington must honor its commitments under the
00:03:38Islamabad
00:03:38Mou,
00:03:43so it shows
00:03:44of that we know how to end this war, the path is very clear and it
00:03:48shows that they have to be committed to their terms and if they
00:03:52continue their naval blockade the war on all fronts
00:03:56and the continuation of this aggression, the cost will be very...
00:04:00clear and uh this was the thing that I can understand from uh
00:04:03Iranian security
00:04:05of chief's remarks from the side of
00:04:07of Tehran as we as I said before uh Tehwan exercises
00:04:11very clear and
00:04:13of stable uh demands and it is committed to its terms but from
00:04:17the side of Washington regime time and again we have seen
00:04:21of that uh the Donald Trump administration they are shifting their uh
00:04:24stances on social media you are seeing different contradictory
00:04:28remarks by uh Donald Trump specially few days ago he
00:04:31said the war with Iran will be ended within a few weeks and later he
00:04:35said I will destroy Iran and this kind of shifts in
00:04:39opinions from Washington regime shows in my perspective this
00:04:42is kind of as a
00:04:44of general of MS as I used a very great terminology here they are
00:04:48of stuck
00:04:48in a quite mayer that they made it and they don't know how to go out
00:04:52of this right from i cannot say that they they have
00:04:56already understood that that if they remain
00:05:00of committed to the terms of islamabad mo so the war will be ended, still i
00:05:04think they are looking for some other ways to push their
00:05:07demands, the
00:05:11commander of... Franc's army ground force has reaffirmed the forces's
00:05:15complete readiness to defend the country's borders against any
00:05:18threat. Brigadier general Ali Jaanche said various units of Iran's
00:05:22army ground force including special forces, rapid
00:05:26response units and artillery units have been deployed along the
00:05:29borders. He said the experience gained from recent wars has
00:05:32transformed the ground force into agile, mobile and
00:05:36multi-skilled force capable of confronting range of
00:05:39threats. John Shay added that destroy presence. of ground
00:05:43forces has deterred the enemy from launching attacks against
00:05:46Iran's borders. Separately where admiral Habibullah Sairi the
00:05:50coordinating Deputy of Iran's army praised the courage and
00:05:54resilience the Iranian armed forces in confronting the
00:05:58enemy. He noted that Iran's armed forces will prevail over the
00:06:01adversaries.
00:06:07Theesel prices keep rising in the guests with the national average cost
00:06:11hitting record high. of $6.45 per
00:06:14gallon and with the economic fallout from the war on Iran, the average
00:06:18price for diesel has surged over 70% a year-on-year
00:06:22comparison, higher diesel prices are expected it industries such
00:06:26as agriculture and trucking that could eventually push up the
00:06:30cost of food and other everyday products, the rising prices and the
00:06:34administration's handling the war have contributed to a decline in
00:06:38Trump's approval rating. Americans have been expressing their
00:06:41anger on social media by posting videos representing their
00:06:45economic
00:06:46distress,
00:06:528:49 for diesel in California, let tell you
00:06:55something, it's 6 uh 6:59 in
00:06:59Georgia, I don't care if it's Georgia or California,
00:07:02it's way too high, this is ridiculous, let
00:07:06me look everything you buy, your food, your supplies,
00:07:10all of your goods gets delivered. buy diesel, the
00:07:14war in Iran has got to stop. This is Trump's fault, this
00:07:18should not be this high, it needs to end,
00:07:21ridiculous.
00:07:25$47,
00:07:2847,
00:07:31bro, look at this, if you're on the prices
00:07:35right, this is
00:07:37$47, because Donald Trump doesn't know anything about
00:07:41economics and has inflation through the roof in
00:07:45america, donald trump, i don't know what y'all got going on in that
00:07:49office, but y'all going to stop playing with me right now bro, pa yall

00:08:14Ukrainian armed forces have launched massive drone attacks on Russian
00:08:17territory, including the capital Moscow, killing at least two
00:08:21people. The victims lost their lives in attacks on the Moscow region.
00:08:25The city's mayor says armed forces downt more than 1600
00:08:28drones since Saturday, over a third them targeted at
00:08:32Moscow. Sergey Sabianin says several drones passed the
00:08:36defenses, one hitting an apartment building and several hitting
00:08:39the Moscow oil refineries precincts. Sobyanin said
00:08:43Ukraine aimed at to destrupt the ongoing parliamentary
00:08:47elections which are expected to cement the ruling United
00:08:51Russia's grip on power. Meanwhile, a Russian
00:08:56city air strike hit a shopping center in the eastern Ukrainian the Nipro. The attack triged a large blaze that
00:09:00damaged the building and injured at least two people. Both Russia and Ukraine
00:09:04have escalated long-range strikes against one another in recent
00:09:07month.
00:09:13As new school year begins in Gaza, education remains a struggle
00:09:16for students there, with most schools eraised by Israely
00:09:20genocidal war, learning spaces are still limited and
00:09:23temporary classrooms face risks. Despite the destruction and
00:09:27disruption, the students and teachers are determined to keep learning
00:09:30next to ruins. Ahmed reports from
00:09:33Knuness.
00:09:37In the heart of Genest Southern Gaza, the crushed classrooms of has
00:09:41schools tends. monument to Israel's destruction of education, founded
00:09:45in 1943, its walls once carried the memory of
00:09:49generations, today as new school year begins, makeshift
00:09:53tents pitch besides a trouble are the only alternative for most
00:09:56students, one of our biggest concerns is just finding tent to
00:10:00study in. i'm lucky to have a place today after our schools were destroyed in
00:10:03inconsistent online learning. for younger students, even convenient
00:10:07access to education remains difficult in these makeshift schools. abu
00:10:11anas brought his two.
00:10:25constant danger, still the semester started and all we hope for is safety and
00:10:29better life for our children. the ministry of education says it has
00:10:33work to facilitate the start the semester by using available schools and
00:10:37spaces whilsing that the Israeli war in education
00:10:40continues. this morning, more than 90,00
00:10:44students are going to schools in conjunis. even though the number sounds big, in the
00:10:48number of makeshift schools increased, it still does not suffice for all
00:10:52students across the gaza strip, but we are deter. to ensure our students
00:10:56have access to their right to
00:10:57education,
00:11:02these really disruption of resources children need, these
00:11:06resources children need, these teachers organized outdoor
00:11:09activities, but all they could find and damaged
00:11:12toys, during the first days of school, we try
00:11:16to condition the environment for young students, we want to for young
00:11:20students, we want to ensure they have successful learning
00:11:24space, but is difficult as without new alternatives,
00:11:27many me have been lucky to find a place to study on the first day, but
00:11:31under the threat of Israely drones, education remains another
00:11:35assignment of survival. between the rubble of schools and improvised
00:11:39tents, typical education remains a distant reality for students

00:11:54palestine. The Palestinian Resistance
00:11:57movement, Hamas, has condemned the Israeli Prime Minister's entry to the Alaksa
00:12:01moss compound in the occupied Alkurds, Hamas described as a
00:12:05flagrant assault under Mosk identity and status.
00:12:09Netanyahu's incursion into areas beneath the holy site as well as
00:12:13his presence at the Albarak wall. It also stressed the alaxo Mosk will
00:12:16remain an exclusively Islamic site. The statement came after
00:12:20Netanyahu's several ministers and hundreds of Israeli settlers entered the
00:12:24Moscow. under the protection of Israeli
00:12:27forces,
00:12:31at least one Israeli sutler has been killed and several others injured a
00:12:35shooting operation near Ramala in the occupied West Bank.
00:12:38Following the operation, the regime forces shot all entrances and
00:12:42exits to towns across the Ramalah region. In
00:12:46separate incident, Israely troops opened live fire a Palestinian
00:12:50vehicle east of Janin, claiming that the driver intended to carry
00:12:53out a ramming attack. "the attack left one palestinian dead and
00:12:57another wounded. this comes as Israeli forces continue
00:13:01their rates and abduction campaigns across the west bank.
00:13:04violence against Palestinians in the occupied territory has escalated since
00:13:08Israel launched its genocidal war on Gaza in October
00:13:122023.
00:13:17i'm now joined by Susan Abel Havar, Palestinian American activist joining us
00:13:21from philed this news bulletin. well, you know that this news bulletin..."
00:13:25Well,
00:13:25you know that Press TV's correspondent in the West Bank Nakahmet is in
00:13:29Israeli custody as we speak, and she was abdoctory forces
00:13:33few days ago. What's your take on the abduction considering the fact that
00:13:37Naqa, like many other journalists, has been committed
00:13:41to her journalistic ideals and principles
00:13:43only? Hi, thanks
00:13:47for having me. Um,
00:13:50is, I want to point out that she's also a US
00:13:54citizen. and the United States is not lifting
00:13:58finger it seems to um to help
00:14:01her uh in the same way that they are they have not lifted finger
00:14:05to help any US citizens who are in Israeli
00:14:09custody who are routinely abducted
00:14:12the um the the kidnapping
00:14:16of yet another journalist is part of a
00:14:20longstanding campaign um of
00:14:23targeting. palestinian journalists and really any journalists
00:14:27who who are reporting the truth from the
00:14:30ground. Israel has uh is
00:14:34facing a big PR problem as we
00:14:37know um they have historically been
00:14:41able to control the narrative, they have historically been the gatekeepers of
00:14:45knowledge and media in this country, they have um uh
00:14:48produced littny of Hollywood
00:14:51films really kind you
00:14:55really kind of brainwashing and manipulating public
00:14:59imagination um
00:15:02in towards a zionist narrative
00:15:06not only about what Israel is but also about who we are
00:15:10force of of palestinian blood in this genocide and um and their
00:15:13inability to completely control the
00:15:17the internet really
00:15:20so Israel has implemented a multipronged
00:15:24process number one um is the targeting of
00:15:27journalists as we know, either killing them, imprisoning them,
00:15:31um, is probably
00:15:33uh most likely facing um severe physical and
00:15:36psychological. abuse and solitary confinement, we know the
00:15:40conditions are horrific and humiliating to women um in
00:15:44Israeli dungeons and but
00:15:47sadly she is only she's one of
00:15:51many um journalist intellectuals, writers, artists who have
00:15:55been facing this kind of Israeli
00:15:58barbarity. another element of this
00:16:02of Israel's campaign um has been
00:16:06to um um to censor
00:16:09uh um and and uh use their influence to
00:16:13manipulate algorithms on uh various social media platforms to
00:16:17cancel Palestinians as we know whether you know getting
00:16:21people fired getting people's books um
00:16:24unpublished uh getting um
00:16:28films censored uh getting people's social
00:16:32media accounts canceled and sh
00:16:35um most another
00:16:38insidious thing that most another insidious thing that has
00:16:42just um uh recently come to light, although it's been ongoing
00:16:46for for decades um has been, they have always sort
00:16:50of manipulated and heavily influenced
00:16:54the education curriculum in this country um as
00:16:57matter of fact max um uh Robert
00:17:01Maxwell the the father of Gilan Maxwell the the partner
00:17:05of Jeffrey Epstein. um owned
00:17:09the um the the company that
00:17:13creates textbooks for American school
00:17:16children, so um,
00:17:19you know, there so Israel's zionist influence on education
00:17:23system here has been profound, and now today there was a news
00:17:27article uh that Texas is further
00:17:31changing school books to um
00:17:34remove you know... muslim influence
00:17:38on on algebra and geometry and so
00:17:42forth, sort of erase muslim contributions to
00:17:44humanity and to promote Islam as a
00:17:48barbaric religion associated with slavery and and
00:17:52wars and so on and then to promote Israel
00:17:55as some beacon of democracy and indigenaity
00:17:59and ancient heritage and so forth, so it's really it's
00:18:03it's extraordinary the levels
00:18:06of ' um
00:18:08the way they have been able to penetrate
00:18:12the world with their fairy tales and their lies
00:18:15and mistruots and
00:18:18sadly the abduction of naqa is just a
00:18:22piece of that. right Susan, we see that Israeli forces
00:18:26are abducting Palestinians in the occupied West bank with no charge
00:18:30almost a daily basis. They're addition to violence and
00:18:33crackdown intensified and since the Gaza genocide began.
00:18:38"what should the international community genuinely do to stop
00:18:42all of this harassment? I mean,
00:18:45look, the, you, there's so the
00:18:49international community, whatever that is now at this
00:18:52point, um, should have acted a long time ago,
00:18:56the inaction the international community, their their unwillingness to
00:19:00hold this horrendous uh, colonial
00:19:04entity, um, accountable."
00:19:08for the endless crimes that they have been committing against us for decades
00:19:12uh is what has brought us to this moment and
00:19:15now I think because of public outrage many
00:19:19are just you know kind of paying lip service some countries while at the same
00:19:23time behind closed doors they are uh
00:19:26you know conducting business as usual shipping weapons and fuel
00:19:30and and conducting all manner of trade with Israel
00:19:34um a minimum a minimum I think the world should just
00:19:38simply boycott this awful monstrosity that
00:19:42has been planted in the heart of West Asia and North
00:19:45Africa.
00:19:46It is, it is a European colonial construct that is
00:19:50genocidal, that is Jewish supremacist, um, and frankly
00:19:54it has no place in our region and frank and no place in the
00:19:56world. This kind of,
00:19:59you know, um, the the
00:20:02lunacy uh, and
00:20:05supremacy is off the chart. the hatred,
00:20:08the um
00:20:10the violence, their propensity for such sadistic
00:20:13um genocide,
00:20:16sadistic violence against people who have really have no way to defend
00:20:20themselves, not just in the past three years, but for
00:20:23decades, should shock everyone's
00:20:26conscience, and the fact that the world, the so-called international
00:20:30community is still debating what to
00:20:33call this mass slaughter that we can all see,
00:20:38what to call burning people alive, burying people
00:20:41alive, the total crushing,
00:20:44dismumberment and burding of so many children,
00:20:48right? yeah. um
00:20:50so I frankly
00:20:54admit so just to answer your question and I'm sorry I'm going on but
00:20:58it's
00:20:58you know the passion and the fury runs deep in all of us, the
00:21:02international community a minimum should be boycotting them, but honestly if
00:21:06we are
00:21:06to speak in terms of justice and morality, they
00:21:10should really end that colony. It was indeed a
00:21:13pleasure to have you on this news bulletin, Susan Abulhava,
00:21:17Palestinian American activist joining us from Philadelphia.
00:21:20Yeah, thank you, and with that we come to the conclusion
00:21:24of this news bulletin, thank you so much for staying with us on Press
00:21:27TV.
00:21:51from bombs stop falling, casualty figures are tallied, names are
00:21:54added to lists, but numbers cannot measure the lives that unravel
00:21:58after the explosions. wars count those killed by
00:22:02missiles, they rarely count those who survived them, and may
00:22:06later die of brief. yes, you heard that right,
00:22:10grief. 31 year old sayqi became
00:22:14one of those. in the early hours of March 26, a US is
00:22:17really strike reduced her family home. in Espahon's have to neighborhood
00:22:21to rubble, her husband, local football coach Hussein
00:22:25Maliki and their two young sons, age five and
00:22:29three were killed, around them nine homes were destroyed and
00:22:3224 people died from the US Israely attack. Alham
00:22:36survived, for seven hours, rescuers searched through concrete
00:22:40and twisted steel before pulling her from beneath the
00:22:44debris. A fallen sofa had shielded her head from the
00:22:47collapsing building, but her injuries for. severe, her
00:22:51greatest wounds, however, were invisible. weeks later, a video
00:22:55of a home standing on the ruins of her home spread across
00:22:58Iran. in her hands was a handwritten note rescued from the
00:23:02rubble, one her young son had written before the
00:23:06attack. as she read it, her voice faltered. around
00:23:10her lay the remains the life she had built. her
00:23:14father says that after losing her husband, her children and
00:23:18her home, she was never the same. She withdrew from the
00:23:21world, spoke constantly of her family and struggled
00:23:25to bear even ordinary sounds. After more than two months
00:23:29of overwhelming grief, after losing her family in US Israely
00:23:33attack, she suffered fatal stroke and died. Her
00:23:37story speaks to a quieter taller war of survivors
00:23:41who carry the destruction with them long after the
00:23:45dust settles. It also reflects a wider pattern of US
00:23:49Is really aggressive. across the region that has left behind a
00:23:52deeper tool not only a single moment of impact, but
00:23:56in the lasting human consequences that
00:23:59follow.
00:24:09July 31st, 2026, nighttime straight of
00:24:12hormos, southern Iran, the United States launched a heavy
00:24:16wave of strikes against command centers, radars.
00:24:20centers, radars, surveillance systems and air
00:24:24defense positions across southern Iran. Southern Iran safer for American
00:24:28aircraft, but just hours later, something unexpected
00:24:31happened. An American MQ9
00:24:35Reaper was shot down over the straight of Formus.
00:24:39The MQ9 is no ordinary drone, it is one of America's
00:24:43primary platforms for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and
00:24:46precision strikes, capable of remaining airborn for more. a full
00:24:50day while carrying an advanced suite of sensors and weapons, and this
00:24:54was not the first reaper lost. Since the beginning the war. Iran
00:24:58has taken around 50 MQ9 Reapers out of operation,
00:25:02roughly one quarter the entire US Reaper fleet. But the real
00:25:05story was only beginning. Shortly afterward, an
00:25:08F-35 entered the picture, one the world's most advanced
00:25:12combat aircraft designed specifically to penetrate
00:25:15sophisticated air defense networks,
00:25:18but stealth does not mean invisible. One radar may detect
00:25:21only faint signature, infrared sensor may pick up the heat from its
00:25:25engines, another system may detect its electronic emissions, and
00:25:29when the information from all these systems is connected through a single
00:25:33network, much clearer picture the target begins to emerge.
00:25:37That same night, the tracking the F-35 reached the level of a
00:25:40weapon's quality lock, a warning the pilot could not ignore. The
00:25:44F-35 did not continue its mission and quickly left the
00:25:48area, and perhaps that is the most... The most important part the story: air
00:25:52defense success does not always mean shooting an aircraft down.
00:25:55Sometimes it is enough to stop an aircraft designed to penetrate
00:25:59hostile airspace from completing its mission. And now, for the
00:26:03United States, the issue is no longer simply the loss of an
00:26:06MQ9 or the retreat of an F-35. The bigger question
00:26:10is, how could a network whose radars and key components had been
00:26:14attacked only hours earlier, remain operational, and still
00:26:18force one of America's most advanced aircraft to abandon its
00:26:21mission. incident that now forces the United States to
00:26:25rethink not just a flight path, but its entire calculation
00:26:29over Iran's skies.
