the commissioner also urged the release of those held without charge and call for a transparent probe into all instances of torture by the israeli regime. multiple released policy detailly say that they were transferred in trucks to open air prisons where they suffer different forms of maltreatment. they took me to the truck and the truck was crowded with detail needs. they practiced the worst types of. on us, it was rainy night, so they took us to northern area and put us on the asphalt. it was raining hard and it was cold. we stayed in the rain for more than an hour, and they beat us while we were tied up. free prisoners also said that they were threatened to be shot and forced to insult palestinian groups and political figures. such accounts are backed by footage released by israeli troops and social. media which shows the mistreatment of

7:36 am
them for that, without iran, this particular access giving support to the suffering people of gaza, the resistance in gaza will not be possible, the... 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 lead by 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
7:37 am
this is simply backfiring, it's making the israeli regime yet again look like a regime that wants to close out each and every communication. israel resistance movement to continue to exchange fire along southern lebanese border, latest clashes, israeli occupation forces have conducted new strikes on several southern lebanese towns and in response hisb is fired a barage of missiles at the upper galilei, upper galilei part in northern occupied territories is really media said drone was also launched from lebanon and reached hyifa bay. the two sides have been engaged and intense fight. since israel launched its genocidal war on gaza back early october, the lebanese movement says attacks on israel will stop only once the regime ends its onslot on gazans. president correspondent, they joined us earlier with

more details about latest developments along the southern lebanese border. well, we do know that the resistance has declared in a statement that they target. movement of israeli soldiers between two of the israeli posts in the occupied shabar farms. it's between ramtha and sumaka, that area seen there was movement for soldiers, hasas said 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 an occupied lebanese territory, it's an occupied palestinian territory, and it's they also used burkan. in that instance as well, it seems hizbullah has been using the burkan rocket more often in the latest round of confrontations, but we also have other operations where they uh conducted also other resistance operations in certain areas, we do know from the israeli media that they have
7:39 am
shot down as they say a drone which flew from lebanese territory, hizballah has not denied or claimed any responsibility on that, but the... said that it was flying close to area which was in haifa, it could have been a huzballah, it could be, it could have been from hizballah to towards a strategic area, and hafa could have also been something from the iraqi 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 haifa, we're not supposed to talk about demona. كان يشتغل بدون اي نوع من انواع الاجراءات الوقايه على العكس تماما نفس الزلمه اللي كان

washali reports. thousands of yemanies have filled the streets of the capital sanna and other major cities to slam the us blacklisting of the ansarullah movement. the protesters also expressed their continuous support for the yemani army's operations in the red sea and gulf of aden. we came here today. in uh square to send a big message to the sahioni, israelian, american and british, we have a good weapon to make you under the sea, not under the ground, under the sea, the yemeni people and the whole world know who america is, its entire history is full of terrorism, murder, crime, corruption, support for criminals and the production of weapons for more killing. "there is nothing clearer than the crimes committed by israel and america in the gaza strip with no less than
7:42 am
240 marters every day, not to mention the wounded and the missing. therefore, for america to classify any group in the world as terrorist is very silly and it cannot be believed by rational person. officials say the recent us move is in line with washington's support for the israeli regime and its atrocities in gaza. they say the us is endangering the region to protect." the israeli regime which clearly exemplifies terrorism. it's a great honor for us that the sponsor and the founder of terrorism which has killed countless people around the world and use its atomic bombs in hiroshima and akazakin kill hundreds of thousands there is the one that classified us as terrorists, but we represent the most honorable position from moral and humanitarian standpoint. america's recent designation is in line with is support for the israeli genocidal war against palestinians in gaza. we stand with palestine
7:43 am
and will not back down from this position. in response to the yemeni army's relentless attacks against israeli linked vessels in the red sea, the us has announced the redesignation of the ansarullah movement as a terrorist group. the group has been stepping up its military operations against american and the british ships and the rid sea and the gulf of aden. the us and uk launched attacks on yemen following its move to target israeli link. ships in retaliation for the regime's genocide in gaza. despite the strikes by the us and the uk, people have gathered here to prove their point. they say they are not afraid of new war and are ready for all options. they also believe that the us is the godfather of terrorism and has no right to designate any of the resistance movements as a terrorist group. "the islamic resistance in iraq claim responsibility for down a us

military drone in northern iraqi area on thursday. group said in a statement shot down mq9 reaper drone indiala province. according to the statement, aircraft was coming from us airbase in kuwait. the development comes amid heighten tensions and simmering anti-american sentiments throughout the region. in recent months, iraqi resistance forces have carried out number of attacks on american bases in both iraq and..." neighboring syria on an almost daily basis. this is in response to us support for the israeli genocide campaign in gaza. anti-israel initiatives have begun in italy's northern city of vishinzah as a 70th edition of the city's prestigious gold and diamond industry fair kicks off. protest from the stage in response to a high number of israeli jewelry dealers being present at this fair. placed in italy's wealthy northeast, vicenza is known for being the country's
7:45 am
capital of gold and for an international golden jewelry industry fair, which has been running for 70 years. this year's edition has seen a number of anti-israel initiatives organized across the city. on friday, a protest was held in the vicinity of the tradefair premises and protest to tel aviv's massacres against the civilians in gaza. israel, one of the diamond world's leading centers, occupied entire pavilion for its dealers at the jewelry boutique showcase, israel's diamond exports have increased even in the past months even when the... regime is committing a genocide against the palestinians. israel's diamonds are dired in blood. tel aviv steals the precious gems from african countries such as congo, sudan and iwary coast using children as the easiest source of cheap labor. protesters outside vicenza's jewelry industry fair are saying that most people don't know that the diamond
7:46 am
industry is a main source of funding for the israeli military. they argue. that israeli blood diamonds have bankrawled the mass murder of over 24,000 gazans since early october, most of whom were women and children. vicenza has been hosting rallys in response to israeli jewelry dealers participating in its international gold fair for nearly two decades. we are against having the israelies at the vichensa gold fair. it's immoral for everybody. mostly for our city, doing business with a country that is standing before the international court of justice is dishonorable, a country that is committing genocide now as we speak. what's the difference between our debts and the ukrainian dates? also on friday, a public assembly was held in central vicenza, the initiative was attended among the others by
7:47 am
italian healthcare workers were in gaza during the bombing carried out by israel regime in the past. months on saturday, vicenza will also host rail in solidarity with the besieged palestinians, max chivili, press tv, vicenza. a pro palestinian demonstrations has been held in austrian capital, vienna, amid ongoing israely genocide in gaza. our correspondent there is asked participants, what they think of ongoing israely bloodshed and us strikes on yemen. um. i think um the us's standsal involvement is a disgrace and um you know not only are they happy to support israel uh both vocally and materially with with weapons and money and arms but they're actually now uh preventing yemen or and those countries that are are actively supporting uh palestine or
7:48 am
actively trying to prevent uh the genocide and i'm very very disappointed. in the western politics right now and what they're doing, including austria and america and germany and so on, and how no matter how many times they uh condone genocide um just for nothing and like on blank papers and as many times as they say that all equal all lives matter equally they show their true thoughts and their intentions when they start bombing gamen and when they ship bombs to palestine and when mike pence uh signs bomb at are going to be deployed and like exploded in gaza and that children are killed with and the recent developments in the middle east and american involvement uh and american imp imperialism in the middle east is very concerning uh particularly the bombing of yemen um this sort of military strategy of bombing indiscriminately um is a recipe for
7:49 am
disaster i don't see anything happening um that will benefit for anyone apart from the exass of ation of um more conflict, more death um and continuation of what we're seeing in in gaza at the moment, which is um the us acting completely irresponsibly in terms of um protecting lives, the safety of civilians. a group of 60 democrats at us house of representatives have urged the government to reject in their... words forced and permanent displacement to palestinians in gaza. another group made the call in a letter to the secretary of state anthony blincan, comments are reaction to recent figures that show nearly two million people are internally displaced in the gaza strip due to the israely onslot. that's over 80% of the territory's population, and far right is ministers want many of them to be permanently
7:50 am
expelled from their homes. the us lawmakers also asked the government to make clarifications on a request. request to provide $14 billion dollars in new security and other aid to the israeli regime. request is despite pressures on the government, including from inside congress to halt arms sales to the israelis over their brutal campaign in the gaza strip. in the us election season is just around the corner, far more dread than hope. many believe there will be even more turmal this november than back in 2020 with widespread concerns about. election related violence, as rami mazaher reports. the united states election campaign has just... officially begun 10 months before going to the voting booth. in iowa, ex-president donald trump easily won the republican parties kickoff to primary season,
7:51 am
but he's still as controversial as ever. many openly claim that his return to the white house would produce civil war, retribution tribunals, dictatorship, and even worse. in new hampshire, a revolt against the democratic national committee means local democrats. soon hold a primary which has been stripped of its delegates. that helps reflect the deep dissatisfaction within the party towards president joe biden. many wonder if the previous elections unprecedented political activism and months of chaos will return. yeah, 2020 was crazy. hope it's not as intense as that. i think 2024 is going to look like 1968. the parallels are uncanning. chicago convention etc etc. i think very good chance biden will pull out in the first quarter of this year and not be the nominee, so i think anything, anything and everything
7:52 am
will happen. with both candidates having such high disapproval ratings and amid such economic, political and military disaster, it's widely expected that both candidates will run extremely negative campaigns. i'm expecting a brutal campaign, they... they're all garbage in in some way or another and uh hope for the best uh for the country. i mean, how i end up voting, i guess is my own particular decision when the time comes, but uh, certainly don't like where the country's at today. biden support for israel's latest war on gaza has deeply angered his critical base of young voters. many muslim and arab americans have vowed to not cast vote for biden. either group could tip the... balance in what poles expect to be the fourth consecutive presidential election to be decided by less than four and a half points. i think that's that's the crip tonight for
7:53 am
joe biden, he's he's screwed up that that uh situation so badly that, the younger generations turn against him, and i don't see, if he continues with his stance on on gaza, i don't see like the younger generation uh coming back for his his support. the war against gaza will also drastically shape congressional. elections: a recent nationwide poll found that voters prefer candidates who support a ceasefire in gaza to those who don't by a whopping two to one margin. ramin mazahari, press tv, chicago. iranian militaries launch a day two, air defense trails marked by a variety of exercises. a maneuvers featured operation is using air defense systems to counter electronic and cyber attacks units involved in the drills
