putting my life and the life of my son in danger, they told me to go out and take him with me. i went out and i put him in his of chair and then they started shooting, so i carried him on my shoulders and there was people in patients behind me. once we got out, they started shooting at us again, telling us that this is not a safe area and we should go right. then they started shooting again saying that this is not safe area as well. we were in the middle of the thing and we didn't know what to do. we then came to camel. at one hospital and they did what's necessary directly, he had a blockage in his intestines and today he died, his father knows nothing about him, he only knows that he's sick, he's not around, he didn't get the chance to say goodbye, and now to the occupied west bank where israely forces have shot and killed a palestinian man over alesh stabbing attack a settlement near the town of ashtad, israely sources said that at least three settlers have been seriously injured in this attack which occur a shopping mall,

to release any of the captives by military means. it has also failed to achieve any of it stated goals of the war. israel have held anti-netanyahu rallies for months. the premier is embroiled in the series. scandals and charges, including fraud and the breach of trust. hespero of resistance movement and israeli forces continue to exchange fire as tensions remain high over the war in gaza. in the latest of such attentions, the lebanese resistance has carried out several retaliatory operations against israely positions in southern lebanon. this after assassination drone assault targeted vehicle. lebanon's southern town of kin. our correspondent mariam sal has the details: the most dangerous uh aggression today from the israeli side was that an israeli drone targeted vehicle in the southern town of kunene and we're talking about an

assassination, it seems uh they we know from reports that there was one person in that vehicle and that has become part of the israeli uh policy of targeting individuals which could be members of either the hamas, as you know hamas is active in lebanon, it does have a branch here in lebanon and they are active in south lebanon, we also see that the israelies are targeting when they do have intelligence, they're targeting some vehicles that include members of hazballah, but in times there's also uh targeting of civilians in their vehicles as well, hazbullah has made it of course clear that they will continue to retaliate for the continuous israeli aggressions, and there were several operations today, the israelis, excuse me, targeted the the post of jord, they targeted specifically, they said the espionage devices, in that post, they also targeted these ibdim post and which has become a routine operation for targeting the occupied lebanese shabal farms, we also saw today

targeting of a recent post which is called the bar launching site where the israelis keep their tanks and their artillery and they launch their aggressions from that area, and hazbillah mentioned in their statement that this is a res' post and this show shows that husb that uh the israelis uh are attempting to move away from their original post perhaps trying to stave off any hizbolah operations but hiz seems to have the intelligence to be able to know about these recent posts and target them as well has israely forces have carried out fresh strikes on syria targeting the vicinity of the capital damascus, the syrian military says the rockets were launched from the direction of the occupied golden heights added that the aggression resulted in the injury of two civilians causing some material losses. the attack comes two days after the regime's fatal air strikes on sirias aleppo killed a number of civilians and military personnel. the syrian

welcome back to the newspress tv. turkish president richard taip erdogan has acknowledged that his party's poor performance in sunday's local elections, calling the outcome a turning point for the justice and development party, also known as the ak party. we will open-heartedly analyze. results of the march 31st elections within our party and make our self criticism boldly, although not finalized yet, the election results show us that we are experiencing a loss of ground in local administrations across the country, of course we will discuss the reasons for this decline we see on the local basis. erdovan issue the statement after early results squashed as parties hopes of winning municipality and mayoral seats in istanbul and ankara and some... traditional strongholds, the opposition, republican people's party has already declared victory

for ekram, the incumbint mayor of istanbul, after 96% of the ballot boxes were counted. partial official tallies also showed the chp was leading in other big cities. sunday's local elections appeared to represent a fresh blow to the president with set is sights on retaken control of urban areas. turkish people in 81 provinces took to the polls to choose mayors and provincial council members in local elections. the vote is seen by many as a test of popularity of president rejap tayyib erdogan. erdogan who started his political life as the mayor of istambul campaigned for the past few weeks to promote his party's candidates. the ruling justice and development party is seeking to win back both the economic hub of the country istanbul and capital ankara after receiving a blow from republican. people's party chp in 2019. for his turn, the chp is a scrambling to

maintain both cities and win more. all eyes are now on istanbul as the competition between the two main candidates in the city is crucial. the participation wasn't expected to the same as the previous election. however, it's not less important than the 2023 one. ardon wants to end his present term with the victory for his party, and opposition candidate, who wants to participate in the 2028 presidental. it does not matter who wins, as long as he works for the city and for our district, i want the best for my city, aside from political ideologies. mayor of istanbul, ak and the akp's candidate murad kurum. were campaigning for improving services for the city's 60 million residents a time of wide

spread economic hardship and double digit inflation. imam alu has been criticized during his term for heavily focusing on presidential election and his party's leadership rather than solving issues in the city such as transportation and traffic problems and multitude of other issues when heavy snowfall crippled life in istanbul. for the past 10 years i have been living in istanbul uh and i found that uh the previous uh mayor he didn't give the promise uh he planned to do inside istanbul uh according to the service uh the management of the city we didn't find we didn't find any change uh in this in this situation for that i preferred to give the party again because i think they lost the election last time uh it was like kind of punishment from the people uh and i think they learned a good uh from this from

this lesson. opposition party supporters consider this election as another chance to topple the justice and development party and win back power in the country. i voted for akram imam oglo and cp. i have always supported chp and will vote for them every time, for this could be our last exit from this nightmare. who was the mayor of istanbul. in 1994 said during rally that istanbul is the jewel, the treasure and the apple of our country's eye. analys say the person that rules istanbul is able to establish himself a political base. which then translates into power at the national scale. who wins istanbul wins turkey? that's what erdogan, mayor of the city in the 1990s was quoted by a pulster as saying, against that backdrop, istanbul today could be choosing turkey's future president. rusan sagam, press tv, istanbul. the us has in

recent days quietly authorized to transfer billions of dollars worth of bombs and fighter jets to israel. last week the state. department also authorized the transfer of 25 f-35 fighter jets and engines to israel. in our explainer segment, we've taken a closer look at the issue. the us government has approved new batch of military equipment to the israeli regime. the most recent aid will include bombs and fighter jets. the immediate question, what happened to the rhetoric of concern for civilian casualties? for example, the us secretary of defense lloyd austin has said that the civilian death tool in the gaza strip is far too high, that too many palestinian civilians continue to die, adding that the gaza strip continues to suffer humanitarian catastrophe, one and which can be avoided, and that the situation is getting even worse echoing the same view as other us officials, including us president joe biden. now it was within one week that the white

house authorized transfer of war planes and bombs, the sale amount two. here's a shot list, more than $1,800 mk84 200 lb bombs and 500 mk 82 500 lb bombs. this sale also included 25 f35 fighter jets. now what can these 200 lb bombs do? for starters, the immense fire power can inflict damage to people over a long distance up to a thous feet or 300 metes away. this can create civilian casualties a massive scale, something israel has done on more than one occasion. well, here's a map which shows craters created by these heavy us bombs, more than 500 craters, which are consistent with 2000 lb bombs. note that the average destruction is 39.3 ft or 12 me in diameter.

two flashbacks are in order here: first, from october the 7th to november. for the first, euromed monitor reported that israel struck at least 12,000 targets, that it had dropped more than 25,000 tons of explosives on the gaza strip, and it said this was equivalent to two nuclear bombs, like the ones us dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki, the second flashback, massive us arms deliveries, 244 transport planes from october the 7th to december the 25th, more than 10. tons of bombs and munitions delivered to occupied palestine, and that's over a three-month period only. we're now in the sixth month of the genocide. let's not forget, the us has virtually removed all the meaningful restrictions on the stock pile and the transfer of its arms to israel. this includes surplus weapons limitations, annual spending

cap on replenishing the stock pile and curtailing congressional oversight. and to add insult to injury, the us says that israel is using weapons in line with international and humanitarian law, and that israel is not blocking gaza 8, saying israel's use of american weapons meets requirements of new national security memorandum, despite overwhelming evidence that proves otherwise. the us provides israel with nearly $4 billion dolls a year in military assistance. if it wanted to stop the israeli genocide, it could do... by using that as leverage to condition us aid for israel, but it continues to provide israel with bombs, which may be why joe biden has new nickname, genocide joe. in pakistan, people have shown solidarity with palestinians in wartorn gaza by holding protests and setting up roadside iftar mails

in ramadan. they have condemned israel's brutalities and have called for immediate ceasefire in the besieg territory, particular in the holy. has more from islamabad this year, the holy month of ramadan in pakistan has been dedicated to the oppressed people of gaza with pakistanis asserting that they will never forget the plight of palestinians in war torn gaza. throughout ramadan they have continue to raise their voices against israel's brutalities and the genocidal war on. this week activists from save gaza campaign organized protest demonstrations in all major cities of the country, they also staged protest sitins to condemn what they perceive as is israel's barbarism in kaza. pakistan should move on international fora, united nation, oic and other international fora for seasfire, to save ghazza, to save

palestinian to stop this genocide. number one, number two, establish humanitarian assistance corridor, number three: start proceeding against israel, an international court of justice and international criminal court and also on the platform. the oic for their war crimes, for their crime against immunity and gaza. while leaving the comfort their houses behind, individuals from different faiths and backgrounds gather on the streets, setting up makeshift iftar meals to break their fast during ramadan. these gatherings were not just about sharing food, they were about sharing solidarity, empathy and hope for the people of gaza. this is message from deach islamabad pakistan that we are with you. "our hearts are beating in gazza and for the regimes across the globe, the our message is that you have been exposed, your so-called democracy, your

so-called freedom of speech, your so-called international humanitarian law are badly exposed. images of destruction and suffering from the israeli war sparked wave of empathy among people from various walks of life in pakistan, prompting them to increase their advocacy campaign within their communities for the pl." of oppressed people in kaza, the gesture of pakistanis holding protest demonstrations and breaking their fast on the streets to show solidarity with the oppressed people of gaza, underscores their steadfast commitment implifying voices against israel's ongoing janocide and advocating for a cease fire. nasik azmi, press tv, islamabad. the national botanical garden of iran holds a group of local plants and trees of iran. as well as exotic ones, which makes this collection quite valuable. this year, nature lovers are attending festivals there on the day of nature. fatima masome has the details.
