00:00:00Perhaps the first thing that comes to mind is being famous for courage,
00:00:04steadfastness, and resistance. The symbol of this resistance
00:00:08and this courage
00:00:10is the fight against British colonialism.
00:00:14A person named Rais Ali Delvari.
00:01:08This is Rashidi Delvari's house. His room, these are old.
00:01:12Many times.
00:01:15With the start of the First World War, Raisali, who
00:01:19is now a strong young man, unites
00:01:22the local khans and headmen
00:01:26to confront colonialism.
00:01:30The British who entered Bushehr province. One
00:01:33of the raids that Rais Ali launched
00:01:37against the British forces was that one
00:01:40night they moved from Chogadak
00:01:43towards Tangak to kill
00:01:46the British.
00:02:02Raisali and six
00:02:04unions, farmers and opponents of of his companions, one of whom
00:02:07was Choolan. Choolan was a comrade
00:02:10and cousin of Rais Ali Delvari, who in
00:02:14this battle and raid killed 11
00:02:18of the British commanders and generals.
00:02:21they killed
00:02:23them.
00:02:36Given that Choolan was one of Raisali
00:02:40Delvari's fighters, after the martyrdom
00:02:43of Raisali Delvari, he was pursued by British forces
00:02:46until World War II. In World War
00:02:50II, the British again occupied
00:02:54parts of Iran. The remaining
00:02:57companions of Raisali for the expulsion
00:03:00of the British from the southern provinces to the
00:03:04Tang-e Balhiyat Shiraz. Choolan,
00:03:07Raisali's cousin and comrade,
00:03:11also participates in this battle and they push the British
00:03:14back to Khuzestan
00:03:17province, Ahvaz, and Abadan.
00:03:20they are retreating.
00:03:35After the British were driven back, a number of
00:03:39Tangsir people settled there by the Arvand
00:03:42River, and Choolan also rebuilt his life
00:03:45in Khazalabad village, Arvandkenar.
00:03:49Choolan's main job
00:03:52in Khazalabad and Arvandkenar
00:03:55was fishing. fishing.
00:03:58was.
00:04:09Years after Shoolan, a grandson was born
00:04:12named Alireza.
00:04:15Alireza Tangsiri.
00:04:52When Iraq was under naval
00:04:55blockade, he played the biggest
00:04:59role in protecting
00:05:01our border because the Americans
00:05:05and British were stationed there and did not allow
00:05:08them to enter our waters by an inch.
00:05:11They were very zealous and very
00:05:14anti-British, like their ancestor Rais Ali
00:05:18Delvari. I always told him that this anti-British
00:05:22sentiment is in your blood. Well, that incident
00:05:26with the British who had come with their
00:05:29vessels into the northern waters of the Persian
00:05:32Gulf, and when they had
00:05:34entered
00:05:37our territorial waters, they were immediately
00:05:39arrested by Commander Tangsiri
00:05:43and his colleagues and comrades.
00:06:01Allahu Akbar!
00:06:31On this very Delvar coast, he captures the invading British forces and ties their hands.
00:06:34Several years later, you see
00:06:37Sardar Alireza Tangisiri,
00:06:40who also played a commanding role
00:06:44like Rais Ali, capturing the invading British forces.
00:06:47Well, he inherited this from Rais Ali, didn't he?
00:07:10Sardseir said that there
00:07:12must be an order from the General Staff of the Armed Forces to release
00:07:16them. Finally, government officials contacted the General Staff
00:07:20of the Armed Forces. The British
00:07:22ambassador came to the third region,
00:07:26to the place they had specified, and the
00:07:29British ambassador bowed before Sardar Tangsiri.
00:07:32he bowed.
00:07:36Sardar Tangsiri came
00:07:38in 1370
00:07:40to the first naval district of the IRGC
00:07:44as the operational commander. One of Sardar Tangsiri's organizational
00:07:47and structural characteristics has been his macroscopic and strategic
00:07:51view, always having a strategic perspective on issues. In the missile
00:07:55discussion, Sardar paid close attention to several points, one of which was precision targeting.
00:08:12One is speed of action, meaning he said that it should be solid
00:08:16fuel so that it can be immediately ready and installed
00:08:20on the vessel, or our coastal
00:08:36missiles shone brightly in this recent imposed
00:08:39war. That is, in the smart
00:08:43blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, these
00:08:46missiles and these drones that the Navy built
00:08:49played a fundamental role. When the Ramadan war was imposed
00:08:53on us and we entered the war,
00:08:56with the decision of the government that
00:09:00Mr. Tangsiri was the powerful executor of this section,
00:09:03they closed the Strait of Hormuz, not for the people
00:09:07of the world, but for the aggressors and those who asked for too much.
00:09:10In the name of God.
00:09:22Our dear قائد and leader Imam Khamenei, in line with the maritime sovereignty of the
00:09:25Persian Gulf and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz,
00:09:29we witnessed the destruction of the American
00:09:31oil tanker. Victory from God and
00:09:35a near victory.
00:09:39Go! Ah
00:10:14He said it was no joke that we would come and close a strait and humiliate
00:10:18a superpower. We said that if you cause mischief, we will close
00:10:21the Strait of Hormuz, and you said no, you are not in a position to close
00:10:25this Strait of Hormuz, but we showed the world that we closed it,
00:10:29and they couldn't open it. This is very
00:10:32important. The whole world, friends and enemies, all foreign media,
00:10:35especially the hostile ones, came and admitted it themselves. If we look
00:10:39at the media, it is completely evident that another Rais Ali Delvari
00:10:42has been born and is creating
00:10:46an epic. Rais
00:10:48Ali bushehr was poor, don't let England
00:10:52move towards the interior. Commander.
00:11:30They saw the missile, drone, and naval
00:11:33power of the IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary
00:11:37Guard Corps), and how
00:11:39it could push back
00:11:43the so-called powerful American army.
00:11:46From the first day of the war, he himself directly
00:11:50controlled the missile,
00:11:53the vessel,
00:11:55and the drone, knowing where, how, and at what
00:11:59time to carry out operations.
00:12:18O Fatimah al-Zahra, O Fatimah
00:12:21al-Zahra, O Fatimah al-Zahra.
00:13:14Both for blockading the Strait of Hormuz
00:13:18and for confronting American
00:13:21bases, and for planning the continuation
00:13:25of the war, they were all in control. They were in contact
00:13:28with their commanders one by one and gave
00:13:32them the necessary orders. They were not
00:13:35idle in this field
00:13:38for even one hour.
00:13:47We stand with full might against
00:13:50any enemy who wants to ignite a fire, until
00:13:53the last person and the last.
00:13:59We stand firm, and once again we will show the global
00:14:03hegemonic system and America at its head
00:14:06that here, unlike other countries and places
00:14:09where you have gone and made a quick landing, I don't know, occupied for a few
00:14:13hours and achieved your goals,
00:14:16this is Iran, and Iranians, and Islamic Iran will not allow
00:14:20you to achieve even one of your desires. America
00:14:24and history have shown
00:14:26that while they start wars,
00:14:30they will end them.
00:14:34The end of the war is with us.
00:15:03Alireza Tangsiri's courage, his fighting spirit,
00:15:07his anti-arrogance, his fight against foreigners, his fight
00:15:11against aggressors who attack his land,
00:15:14all these qualities are inherited from Raisali, from
00:15:17the school of martyr Raisali Delvari. In any
00:15:20case, he is
00:15:23his son. He says that we are the children
00:15:26of Delvar, the children of Raisali.
00:15:28I am.
00:16:25In a saga of resilience against overwhelming odds,
00:16:29delve into the gripping struggle of the Yemany forces as they
00:16:32confront the largest naval coalition in
00:16:35history.
00:16:41This powerful documentary highlights their unwavering commitment
00:16:44to justice in the face of adversity, revealing the
00:16:48human spirit's triumph over darkness.
00:17:38Across France a student protest movement has grown into a
00:17:42nationwide challenge to the
00:17:43government
00:17:46and the police response is raising serious questions about the country's
00:17:50commitment to civil
00:17:51liberties.
00:17:58On October 31st, hundreds of thousands of mostly
00:18:01young demonstrators took to the streets for a third consecutive
00:18:05weekend.
00:18:09protesting the cost of living and the state of
00:18:11education.
00:18:15around 70,000 police officers and gendarms were
00:18:18deployed while marches in Paris were pushed to the outskirts of the
00:18:22capital.
00:18:26Ibrahim Benati, a student activist with the student trade union
00:18:30federation, is among those demanding
00:18:32change.
00:18:37the protest, there has been completely disproportionate and horrific violence
00:18:41carried out by the police on the orders of the regime. this violence comes after more than
00:18:45four weeks of revolt by high school students, university students and some
00:18:49sections of the working class. these uprisings are not insignificant, they are
00:18:52a sign of the crisis of capitalism, they are sign of the crisis of this
00:18:56system. the movement began with a school strike in
00:18:59crat, southeast of Paris. on september
00:19:0217th, teachers at Antoine deszupeeri high school walked
00:19:06out over staff short. students and parents joined them,
00:19:10blocking the school entrance. images of the action spread
00:19:13online, inspiring protests across the country. four days
00:19:17later, pupils were calling for more teachers, smaller classes,
00:19:21and safer, better maintained buildings. demonstrations soon
00:19:24spread to Lyon, Marseille, Paris, and other
00:19:27cities, with students also denouncing overcrowded
00:19:30classrooms, exhausting schedules and the opaque university
00:19:34admissions platform,
00:19:37three weeks ago we witnessed demonstration in the fifth arrondissement where we went to support our
00:19:41comrades at Sorboun University. The police kettled us for nearly 30 minutes. We were
00:19:45beaten with batones and several of us were injured. The police fired teargas grenades at point blank
00:19:49range at students who are demanding just one thing: dignity. All we are demanding
00:19:53is funding for our universities, funding for our high schools and above all an end to a system
00:19:56that leads to crisis, death and
00:19:59exploitation.
00:20:01Behind the demonstrations lies a public education system under mounting
00:20:05strain. High school classes average around. around 30 students
00:20:08and nearly one in five has between 35 and
00:20:1139. At the start of the 2026 to
00:20:142027 school year, more than half of France's middle and
00:20:18high schools were missing at least one teacher. The previous school
00:20:22year saw more than 19 million hours of secondary education
00:20:25go untaught, largely because there were not enough substitute
00:20:29teachers. Low pay and growing threats against
00:20:33staff have made recruitment
00:20:34harder.
00:20:37The buildings themselves are also deteriorating, fewer than
00:20:4115% have been renovated over the past
00:20:43decade.
00:20:46Many lack air conditioning, insulation, or even adequate. but
00:20:50shape, leaving students to sit exams in overheated
00:20:53classrooms.
00:20:57conditions are often worse in poorer neighborhoods, including immigrant
00:21:01heavy areas such as cratail.
00:21:04students also face long school days and gaps in their time
00:21:07tables.
00:21:12despite France's relatively high spending on secondary
00:21:15education, it students recorded their lowest
00:21:18results in maths. science and reading in the
00:21:212025 Peter assessment since the survey began in
00:21:242000.
00:21:27For many young people, the crisis reflects a wider generational
00:21:30divide. They see a government prioritizing older voters
00:21:34while youth unemployment remains high and pensions consume a
00:21:38significant share of public resources. I was also
00:21:41present during the high school blockades in the suburbs of Paris where police officers attacked us with
00:21:45batons striking us all over our bodies. They also deployed tier gas grenades
00:21:48against us which explode. near our legs while we were simply campaigning for our rights as
00:21:52students.
00:21:55i was also victim of police violence on October 17th, when i was brutally
00:21:59beaten with batons by police officers. they violently threw me to the
00:22:02ground. the way we were beaten by the police, simply because we demanded dignity,
00:22:05because we asked for more funding and for decent living conditions rather than the
00:22:09appalling conditions in which we currently live, conditions that generations of
00:22:13people have endured for decades is
00:22:15unacceptable.
00:22:17by october, the protests had spread to more than of France's
00:22:20roughly 3,700 high schools, drawing hundreds of
00:22:24thousands into the streets.
00:22:28What began as a campaign for better schools had become an expression of wider anger
00:22:32over economic hardship, failing public services and a future
00:22:35many young people feel is slipping away.
00:22:38Teachers,
00:22:42parents, university students and left-wing politicians joined
00:22:46in.
00:22:50On October 17th, trade
00:22:54the rising cost of living added their voices, evoking the yellow
00:22:57vests movement. A poll earlier that month found that
00:23:0155% of respondents supported the
00:23:04protests.
00:23:06With no central leadership or program, the movement is held together
00:23:10by a shared sense that the authorities are not
00:23:12listening.
00:23:18The government's acknowledgement. that students concerns are legitimate did little
00:23:22ease tensions.
00:23:25Instead, the police response became a central focus of the arrest.
00:23:40As clashes intensified on October 17th, authorities
00:23:43imposed security restrictions and curfews and carried out mass
00:23:47arrests. Videos showing officers ass teenage
00:23:50demonstrators spread online. Official figures
00:23:53cited in the draft report, thousands of arrests and detentions, most
00:23:57involving miners.
00:24:00Today we have witnessed truly horrific acts of violence. Two people were killed during
00:24:04protests on October 17th and 18. Dozens of high school students have been
00:24:07blinded or lost their hands, dozens of protesters have suffered fractures as a result of
00:24:11police baton blows. I was personally subjected to police violence during the
00:24:14demonstration on October 17th. As I was making my way home, I was thrown to the
00:24:18ground by police officers. motorcycles who began beating me on the head and body
00:24:22for absolutely no reason. I sustained injuries to my head and abdomen, I was
00:24:26simply taking the metro to get home. We can see that high school
00:24:29students have been blinded. One high school student had his teeth smashed following point
00:24:33blank rubber bullet shot fired by the police. These are the things we must denounce
00:24:36and fight against living conditions. And the government's response to our demands is
00:24:40batton blows, rubber bullet fire and the deployment of repressive forces
00:24:44a scale that has never been seen before in this
00:24:46country.
00:24:50"the treatment of young demonstrators has raised a further
00:24:52question: are France's authorities respecting the
00:24:56rights of
00:24:57children?
00:25:00miners have the same right to peaceful assembly as adults and are entitled
00:25:04to additional protection from state
00:25:06violence.
00:25:14yet at place de la republique police were accused of trapping
00:25:18protesters without clear information. or safe roots out, then
00:25:21using tear
00:25:22gas.
00:25:26videos collected by street press reportedly show officers beating
00:25:30people as they tried to flee and leaving injured demonstrators on the ground.
00:25:44there are also concerns about the detention of
00:25:47miners.
00:25:52In Bubine, children were reportedly held in cold
00:25:55conditions without mattresses, despite international and European
00:25:59standards that say detention should be last result.
00:26:11Journalists covering the protests have also been
00:26:13targeted. Reporters without borders documented at least
00:26:1712 attacks by early October, half allegedly involving
00:26:21police. In one incident, a Wall Street
00:26:25Journal photographer was hit in the ear by a rubber bullet fired at
00:26:28close range. There has always been violence during previous social movement.
00:26:32but this movement is facing a truly unprecedented level of violence. in
00:26:36previous social movements, there were number of arrests and people being taken into police
00:26:40custody. today, however, we are facing a state-led policy of
00:26:43repression, which is part of a broader process of the growing reactionary
00:26:46shift within the bourgeois state. today, people who took a carton of milk from a
00:26:50shop on October 17th are now sleeping in prison.
00:26:54this had never happened before. even during the riots following the police killing of the young
00:26:57nahel, the repression was not as violent. even in the aftermath of the attacks
00:27:01in Palestine when demonstrations were held against the genocide in Palestine, there was
00:27:05repression, including arbitrary searches and raids, but it was not as aggressive.
00:27:09Today we are witnessing repression that is becoming increasingly aggressive and
00:27:12increasingly
00:27:13severe.
00:27:18Today we know that the regime is trying to intimidate us by implementing a policy of
00:27:22terror. This policy has taken the form of helicopter deployments over place de la
00:27:26republique, the imposition of a curfew, the deployment of facial recognition drones at
00:27:29demonstrations as well as announcements by Gerald Darman and phones would be placed under
00:27:33surveillance, none of this will stop us from fighting, and we will continue until
00:27:37victory. This is what we reaffirm every day. We are the youth of the crisis, to speak out, and
00:27:41above all, denounce the police violence, to speak out, and above all, denounce the police
00:27:45violence we have witnessed against high school students, university students and
00:27:48demonstrators during the protest we have
00:27:50organized.
00:27:54From teenagers, gravely injured by police weapons to miners
00:27:58reportedly held in degrading conditions, and journalists
00:28:01attacked while document. events, the crackdown has
00:28:04become inseparable from the protests
00:28:06themselves.
00:28:10The question facing France is no longer only how it will respond to a
00:28:14generation demanding better schools and living conditions, but
00:28:17whether it will uphold the rights and freedoms it claims to defend.
