hello and welcome everybody, it's 9:30 p.m. here in the iranian capital tehran, you're watching press tv's world news, our top story for this half hour 105 days into the israeli war on the gaza strip, the regime continues with its carpet bombing campaign across the besseach palestinian territory. the overall death toll from the regime's war has passed 24,760, more than 62 thousand others have been wounded and thousands of. under the rubble of their homes. israel keeps bombing residential buildings and refugee camps in areas. it had said that would be safe, hospitals are overwhelmed across the seach territory with people literally waiting on the floor for medical staff to intervene and save them. the deadly raids are being conducted while the coastal territory is under near total communications blackout imposed by tel aviv. south african politician of and youth activist. muhammad khalid said has

talked us about the israeli genocide in gaza, he also explains why the regime is imposing a communications block out there, buse this is genocide, the pictures are here, the deathtal speaks to it, but even within that context, the people of gaza and the resistance and hamas in particular have put up a brave fight and they continue to resist and we want to commend them for that with. out iran, this particular axis giving support to the suffering people of gaza, the resistance in gaza will not be possible. the aim of the israeli regime in carrying out this particular blackout is so that they can suppress the information coming out of gaza, so that their crimes, their atrocities, their genocide cannot be sent out to the rest of the world, but still the information is at our. disposal, so that's their objective, but

also, you know, um, crazy, regimes like the israeli regime, especially the one led by benjamin netanyahu does not always even think rationally, even in terms of their own interest, yes, the interest is to obliterate, to flatten gaza, to kill each and every palestinian living in gaza, but the blocking out of communication, they see it as part of that, but they do not understand. that this is simply backfiring, it's making the israeli regime yet again look um like a regime that wants to close out each and every communication. the united nations says israel may have detained thousands of palestinians in gaza since it launched a genocidal war on the besieged strip early october. during my time here i managed to meet an number of

released detainees, these are men who were detained by the israeli security forces in unknown locations for between 30 to 55 days. they describe being beaten, humiliated, subjected ill treatment and to what may amount to torture. they reported being blindfolded for long periods, some of them for several consecutive days. and human rights representative in the palestinian territories described detention conditions for these palestinians as horrific. ajit sungai cited reports saying that etanies were beaten up and humiliated. the reports say israel release palestinian men without any adequate clothing. he stressed that israel has an obligation to ensure that the detainees are treated in line with international norms and law. sungai also urged the release of those held without charge. a transparent investigation into all

instances of torture of people abducted by israel. israel confirms new military losses and clashes with palestinian resistance fighters in the gaza strip. the military says an israeli trooper died of wounds, he sustained in battle in southern gaza on wednesday. uh, three reservists were also wounded seriously in the north and center of the strip. according to the israeli military, total of 191 soldiers have been killed in the ground invasion of gaza. palestinian resistance groups however say the toll is much higher as israel hides the real number of its military losses. in the meantime, the military wing of palestine's hamos resistance movement has said. that its fighters targeted a mirkava tank with three soldiers aboard.assam fighters hit an israeli military vehicle with the rocket propelled grenade in gaza city. the resistance forces also targeted a group of israeli occupation forces hold up inside building with rocket two israeli occupation forces soldiers were also

targeted in the city of hununes. israeli forces have killed yet another palestinian teenager in the occupied bank as the regime intensifies its raids there. the palestinian teen identified a 17-year-old talfiq hafiz hijazi was fatally shot in village northeast of ramalo according to the palestinian health ministry. hajazi was shot in the head. palestinians in the west bank are being targeted and killed by israeli forces a daily basis. on thursday, the regime carried out a more than 35 hour long raid in tulkarum, killing eight palestinians. israel has intensified its steadly rates across the west banks. since october the 7th, when it began its genocidal war on gaza, israel's rates have left nearly 370 palestinians dead while injuring many others. our correspondent one of candel joined us earlier from ramala to tell us more about the israeli killing of the palestinian team. 17 year old tofiq hijazi

was surprised by israeli forces near the village. and when he saw the israeli forces maybe he was afraid let's say and he tried to return back the israels chased him and opened fire shot him in the head and unfortunately he was shot and killed according to his father he was surprised by the israeli forces near the village of almazr sharqi since the seven of october, the israeli military has escalated its aggressive measures and more policies, aggressive policies are being carried out against the palestinians, more soldiers were sent to the uh checkpoints all

across the occupied westbank, and there are even metal gates, earth mounts, these are at the entrances to the villages, the towns and the refugee camps and at the same time the israel's close all the areas uh so palestinians are not able to travel from the center of the occupied west bank to the north or the south without these strict measures and military checkpoints. israel and hezballah resistance moving continue to exchange fire along lebanon's southern border. in the latest clash israly occupation force. have conducted new strikes on several southern lebanese towns. in response, hezbollah has fired a barrage of missiles at upper galilei in the northern occupied territories. israely media say a drone was also launched from lebanon and reached hifa bay. the two sides have been engaged in intense fighting since israel launched its genocidal war on gaza early october. the

lebanese movement says that attacks on israel will stop only if the regime ends its onslot on palestinians. press tv's correspondent mariam earlier joined us with more details about the latest developments along the southern libinese border, let's stick a listen. well, we do know that the resistance has declared in a statement that they targeted uh movement of israeli soldiers between two of the israeli posts in the occupied chaba farms. it's between ramtha and sumaka, that area. there was movement for soldiers, had they attacked them with the use of a burkan rocket, they also used the burkan rocket in, this is another post for the israelis, but not in occupied lebanese territory, it's an occupied palestinian territory, and it's they also use burkan in

that instance as well, it seems hazbillah has been using the burkan rocket more often in the latest round of confrontations, but we also have other uh operations where they conducted also other resistance operations in certain areas, we do know from the israeli media that they have shot down as they say a drone which flew from labanese territory, hizballah has not denied or claimed any responsibility on that, but they said that it was flying close to area which was in haifa, it could have been a husballah, it could be, it could have been from hizballah to towards a strategic area, in hifa could have also been something from the iraki resistance, since we know that they are quite active in that arena as well, we know that there was an explosion recently and near the oil refineries and in h: i am edward said. i was

born in 1935 into a christian family. most of my family left jerusalem because they had to, and it was an area that fell to the hagana in i think february of 1948. the idea of being a fugitive is just like being affected by leprosy. all palestinians feel the same sense. of exile the charge which created outrage when it was first raised, i think um, they tried to doubt relace this thing, but you see, unfortunately, i think there is something in it, so for him, the writing of orientalism was actually shaped by his engagement with the question of palestine, our homeland was lost in history and right in front of people's eyes. welcome back. the

emmy army says it is targeted an american ship in the gulf of aden in response to us uk strikes on the arab country. the naval forces the yemani armed forces carried out the targeting operation against an american ship came ranger in the gulf of eden with several. described as inevitable yemen's retaliation for the aggression by the us and uk. he added that any new strike on yemen won't go unanswered and unpunished. the us has confirmed the attack its ship. the pentagon says it was the third attack by the yemenes this week on u.s. own vessels in and around the red sea. that's a crucial lane for international trade where tensions have been spiking over the last two months. yemen has been attacking his. linked ships and retaliation for the regime's genocide in gaza. the tensions in the red sea have

escalated further in the past week after the us and uk began air strikes on yemen citing what they called threats to international shipping. the united states has launched a new wave of attacks in yemen. the fresh missile salva was fired from us navy ships, stationed in the red sea and targeted sites that were... allegedly prepared to launch attacks, over dozen locations were set to up and hit in the strikes. the yemini saba news agency reported that the areal assaulted the provinces of odeda, tas, damar, albida and sada. the aggression was accompanied by the presence of surveillance aircraft over the western part of yemen. this aggression will not change anything in the stands of our people and his spiritual obligation in supporting the palestinian people and the residence of gaza as well as the continuous targeting of ships linked to israel. "and this is clear in our continuous operations, yemy armed forces have said that they will

not hesitate to target all sources of threat in the arabian and red seats within the country's legitimate right of self-defense. they've also warned that any aggression against yemen by the us or the uk will not go unanswered and unpunished the washington designated antara movement as a terrorist organization. the anteral resistance movement has described the us move to redesignate the movements as a terrorist organization as quote a badge of honor. designation of the..." state does, mean in here in yemen, they don't care about that, but they are honored uh to to to have that realistic as a terrorist organization, because we know and as said abdul malik have said united state is just the face of the crime, united states is one of the country that have destroyed uh, i mean the have destruction wherever they go, so we are honored uh to be uh designated as terrorist because as always they say one man terrorist is another man freedom. fighter. enteraler spokesman mohammed abdul salam added that the move also proves the impact of

yemen's anti-israely operations in the red sea. as part of their support for palestinians, the yeemen armed forces and antoral popular resistance movement have over the past month, targeted several ships owned by the israeli regime or bound for ports in the occupied territories in the strategic red see after multiple warnings. earlier in january, the us along with the uk attacked yemen in a theatrical show of support for the israeli regime. the issue that america and britain have joined the war directly and that we are now in direct confrontation with the americans, british and israelies does not scare us at all. the great. towards our country and our people will enhance the development of our military capabilities. this was a brutal aggression, violation of our sovereignty. mean, after 10 years of war on the yemini people, a siige on land, air and sea, and to add to that, they are targeting us with new aggression. this is new stage of the conflict. what does this

reflect? it reflects violation of sovereignty, further injustice towards people. since mid november, yemani armed forces have carried out operations against israeli linked ships in the red sea. they say the operations are aimed at forcing the israeli regime to stop its war on gaza and allow medicine and food into the territory. the amamini armed forces have also made it clear that the red sea operations will continue until those goals are achieved. washington and london have supplied money, weapon. and diplomatic cover for the zinus occupation of palestine, they are actively promoting genocide, ethnic lensing, racism, parthide, pull, dehumanization and extreme barbarism in occupied palestine. it's obvious who is on the side of genocide, britain, france, canada, the netherlands and others and germany, especially, and on the side of right, on the side of morality, as world

public opinion, the yemini government, the western hejamonic powers and their zin. ally have faced a disgraceful defeat in gaza in the face of the resilience and steadfastness of hamas and other palestinian resistance groups. germany military has single-handedly posed the biggest threat to the economic functioning of the israeli occupation by forcing it out of the red sea and further promising to stop the movement of ships to the occupied territories if the aggression against gaza continues. response to the yemini military's actions, the us formed so-called multinational coalition in the red sea under the guis of protecting international trade. which in reality was attempt to protect the status quo and regional waters that have traditionally been in the service of western interests. yemeni military's efforts have been noted for being highly sophisticated and precise. the yemeni uh attacks have been extraordinarily effective. first of all uh shipping costs uh are rising, have risen, insurance for ships

is going up uh and this will this will only uh worse, so israel is taking a a pretty significant economic hit. major shipping companies have had to halt operations in the red sea, and to take new longer routes and the us has been scrambling to pressure the saudis to avoid a peace deal with yemen. yemen's retalitary strikes has also halted all commercial activities in the port of villat in the occupied territories. yemen has in fact set new equation with global consequences and has pushed the us from a position of dominance to. of defense having to react and succumbed to the resistance demands. thousands of people have taken to the streets of yemen's capital sana to voice support for

palestinians amit israel's genocidal war on gaza. the demonstrators waved palestinian and yemeny flags chanting anti-us slogans earlier people gathered in the city of salada to condemn israel's onslot on gaza, yemeny protesters denounced washington's unequivocal support for israel in its recent air strikes against yemen, the protesters also slammed the u.s. to designate yemens and sarla movement is a terrorist group calling washington quote the mother of terrorism. jordanians also demonstrated near the us embassy in amon, they ask their government and other arab states not to normalize their relations with israel. our message is very clear, no to the american military bases on

jordanian and arab lands, no to all the treaties and agreements that are signed with the zionist entity. after 100 days of resilience and resistance, what is needed is practical steps to support the palestinian people and to support the resistance, to defeat the hostile alliance which is led by the united states. we call on our jordian government to take better stances than the ones it is currently taking. there's no doubt that these steps are being taken, but we're asking for more positive ones, especially regarding those related to design. enemy to stop these relations with the zinus enemy and to focus on hostilities with this enemy. political analyst takim sari bedia says the demonstrations held by yemenese reiterate their support for their country's anti-israel operations with that sannos says will continue until the genocide in gaza stops.

the very us government that is committing this uh you know round of violence against yemen, just because yemen is doing its part in trying to basically end the genocide. is going on in gaza, what the yemenian forces, the huti forces want is sease fire in gaza, if that happens everything is going to stop, and of course the united states government is not ready to do anything for that to happen, you know for the ending of the violence and the genocide is happening in gaza, so the people of yemen are showing to the world what everyone has to do, and of course we are seeing. scenes around the world in different you know countries, especially in western countries, people have the same opinion that

this you know corrupt and this unjust world order has to come to an end, you know when there is other way to put an end to an ongoing genocide, what should governments do, what should people do, and this is what we are seeing in yemen, that thehi you know... are doing their part and the people of yemen are doing their part in the streets, you know giving their full support to you know their representatives and showing to the world that they are still steadfast, even though they have been under so much pressure as i said for the last 10 years having their own humanitarian crisis and having their own you know rounds of attacks. by outside forces backed by the us government. the iranian military has launched day two of air defense
