"genocide in gaza is clear for everyone to see, even in the west, people are increasingly recognizing the fact that the israeli regime is carrying..." out a holocaust, but as you rightly pointed out, the ban against the russians or bellorus or others is has been put in place not only by bodies linked to sports, but also all other institutions, european institutions and elsewhere, the russians are punished, but the israelis are not punished, the israeli regime... uh is not sanctioned, only a handful of uh people in the west bank

3:43 pm
refugee camp after killing two more palestinians you have to mention that in addition to those four palestinians who were killed in north sham's refugee camp the israeli military had already uh had also conducted another airstrike earlier in general refugee camp and killed three palestinians so it seems that we are speaking about nine palestinians were killed in the last 24 hours in order in the occupied west bank in the center of the occupied west bank and in southern the occupied west bank. the islamic resistance in iraq has announced a new operation against an israeli target and solidarity with the palestinian people in the gaza strap. the iraki resistance is said its latest operation targeted power plant in tel aviv in the occupied palestinian territories using drones. the group said that anti israel. operations will continue in support of palestinians in gaza and in response to the israeli massackers of innocent civilians.

3:45 pm
europe. earlier this week, michelle wrote an opinion editorial run by media specialized in eu affairs that if europe wants peace, it must prepare for war, arguing that although the eu's military manufacturing capacity has increased by 50% since the start of the ukraine russia war in 2022, far more was needed. our european awakening is just beginning to take shape and i would like to tell you what i feel, the time has come to create a real union of defense. michelle added that the european union must finally take responsibility for its own security. for decades, the european union has relied heavily on the united states and the western military alliance nato for its security. analysts believed that the dependency on external powers by the 27 member block has
3:46 pm
resulted in a complete loss of its own geopolitical and strategic autonomy. in questo momento, at this point in time, the eu cannot be militarily independent, it can't adopt autonomous strategies. today, europe must create its own defense system, so that in 30 years time, it can really be geopolitically autonomous. if we continue to put national interests ahead, all individual states, including italy would lose geopolitical relevance. michelle's remarks come as ukrainian and... international politicians and experts are warning that ammunition shortages are resulting in the losses of territory to russia. michelle is trying to keep germany under pressure, demanding together with the french government that berlin provide ukraine with long-range trust missiles taurus. german chancellor schholz has so far said no to this request to avoid the war escalation, adding that his

3:48 pm
pakistan, which has been murred by political friction and trade disruptions. chabahar is one of the most important economic and trade roots for afghanistan. the islamic emirate of afghanistan tries to have a strong bilateral economic and trade relations with iran as part of its economic policy. this port allows afghanistan to broaden its trade with iran, west asia and europe. that's why we are specially focused on chabahar and seek to invest there. analysts believe this could be a turning point for afghanistan's international trade relations. they say that the... has been an ideal trade partner for afghanistan and accessing chau bahar port will further facilitate afghanistan's regional cooperation. the benefits of chabahar port for afghanistan include its short distance with the country's borders. it allows goods to enter our country a low price. it is especially suitable with the overall economic situation of afghans.
3:49 pm
another benefit is that it opens a big route for our exports which is in dire need of expansion. when we become able to expand. our exports, our economy will grow rapidly, as the taliban government seeks to diversify its trade roots and reduce its reliance on pakistan, the decision to invest in iran's chabahar port marks a significant shift in afghanistan's economic strategy. experts say the outcome of this move will not only impact afghanistan's relations with pakistan, but also shif the geopolitical dynamics in the region. iran and afghanistan have the potential and opportunity to cooperate in many fields, trade and industry in particular can bring the two neighbors closer in a very volatile region. press tv, kabul. the president of the european parliament roberta matzola has traveled to the austrian capital less than three months before the eu elections. she delivered a speech to the
