palestine is of great importance to the world's media because of the events and developments that take place there every day, these... israeli occupation leaves no room for the palestinians to spend a single day without inconveniences, and it does it through various means of repression, murder, confiscation of land, and desecration of sacred sides, and it makes it look like the palestinians are the bad guys, and the israelis, the good ones. this campaign of deliberate misinformation continued for decades, until the day came that the palestinians would provide. narrative that
9:03 am
debunked that of the occupation, through local media they reached out to the world, communicating their message, all the while aware of the risks involved, as we know, there are a number of attempts to control countries by occupying the headquarters of television or the occupation of public broadcasters, israel was working on this aspect to hit the palestinian media from the first moment through the creation of fear. these steps have failed as of the start and middle and end of these operation because palestinian media was ever present, always at of the scene, they planned for every upcoming israeli operation, and the way we can tell something is going on is when israel starts to attack or b itself before the civilized
9:04 am
world is a civilized and developed country with national humanitarian project. i think the palestinian press has managed and operated first and foremost based a national theme dedicated to the homeland and national responsibility. we portray the image as it is, when israel targets civilians and children bombards houses, mosks, hospitals, organizations and beseges and entire people, we inform the civilized and free world about what israel is doing, oh civilized people and free nations, this is what israel is doing to us, what distinguish media channel in this world was the influence it had on the zinaonist front, we were able by the grace of god almighty to infiltrate zinust media channels and broadcast to the resist we could
9:05 am
enter homes outside palestine on tv and radio and show how the resistance succeeded. and this got into the minds of the zinus enemy within their own homes and influenced their policies as part of the psychoological 2014. this is what the zionist occupation did not want their own people and the people of the world to see that the palestinian press has credibility of the news coming out of the zinust press which came from statements made by israeli settlers they don't have credibility. النظريه لم تاتي من فراغ بل اتت من مثبره واتت من تصميم. the israeli
9:06 am
occupation and its army first tried to keep the media away from the scenes of carnage during the 2014 gaza war. but when that didn't work, they went after the journalists, some of the most important facilities destroyed by the israeli occupation in 2014 were the five al-aqsa media network facilities. تم استهد مقر المرائيه, the headquarters at burgeruok financial management office, the office is at nasr and the office you are at now, were all targeted as well as the broadcast center. but we don't believe that we are more important than our children and our homes and the feature of palestine and our feelings do not shy away from embarrassment, our purpose is that our message to the people should not be disrupted
9:07 am
because we believe they need us every second. we were back after few hours of the attack which was met with a positive response from the community, media network had aired resistance operational information that allowed the palestinian resistance to defeat a group of israeli soldiers. an operational failure for israel was not an option, and so they had to put a stop to the leaking of the truth to the outside world, and then to replace the truth by way of omission or denial. repeat with me, allah the almighty, allah the almighty, allah the almighty, no true god but
9:08 am
brigades and the souls of their hero marters. i greet you from the heart. this is victory speech that we have started sharing on this blessed night, all respect and salute is due to brigades, we will start commentating after a short interval, stay tuned, that which was reflected through this war, the palestian narrative is credible when it comes to news, we were keen about that, when the zinous enemy said that five people were killed, we would replay the same information. but without exaggeration of such, reporting that in fact 50 were killed, and we believe that the narrated of the resistance that we knew was genuine. when the qassim birgates said they killed eight israeli soldiers in nahal, we published it and this was validated by designus enemy later when they were forced to
9:09 am
then confess that indeed eight of their soldiers were killed, we believe the resistance narrative because they are entitled to be beliefed. we believe. have a revolutionary privacy that distinguishes us from others, frankly we all received threatening letters to the order that several houses of colleagues were pounded with bombs. one of our colleagues in radio was bombed directly by an f16 fighterjet. this man was a journalist who was not engaging in any resistance with targeted due to his employment. the al-aqsa media network was but one of 19 media organizations broadcasting from the gaza strip, which were bombed, leaving them partial. are totally destroyed, al-shab radio was one such network building reduced to rubble.
9:10 am
we tried to take with us some devices such as a transmitter, which is an expensive. i remember at one time a colleague started to walk upstairs when all of sudden an unmanned drone fired rockets at our building, we had escape the building with no time to take anything with us. not even archives or any electronic device, conditions were extremely bad when we were leaving, as some were injured due to the panic and stumbling around at 3:00 in the morning, seeing nothing in front of them, the tower we worked in after being hit collapsed into debris, when we couldn't grab anything from inside the radio station, we thought we had lost our important archives, we believed we had lost a voice for the people, months of work, another palestinian media organization assaulted by the israeli forces was national agency which provides services to local and international
9:11 am
tv stations, this particular site was filmed by surveillance camera while under attack by israeli wearplanes that let fly several missiles which decimated the area, compelling and hard evidence of a war crime. واحنا على مدار اللحظه بنغطي لا نحن اصلا كنا الليله الound the clock coverage of the deadly nights which they targeted more than 30 houses throughout the gaza strip. many people were displaced from their homes in the north and in al-shajay. we're not targeted as
9:12 am
journalists individually, but they bombed our whole building bringing it down with three missiles. it means the occupation is trying to silence media, audio and images. it's a crime, they want to kill the journalists in one hit. there were 36 journalists inside the building at the time. they targeted the building with no prior warning, so that we had no chance to evacuate the building. يعني حتى نحاول يعني نساعد انفوسنا. it's natural for journalists to be frightened, cautious and not want to stay long in places that clearly are a potential target of israeli missiles. many evacuated from their news desks and resorted to working out of hotels in their continued efforts to write and prevent their words and video footage from being silenced by the invading israeli forces. i come from han city, i had to move to gaza because of the very harsh security situation. as a journalist, i come to stay in a hotel where i am sure i can provide the
9:13 am
needed life and life coverage surfaces to the uh to pris tv. well, was injured in one in the morning, i was attending my work, i was doing this work in a area that is known to be full of journalists from the different media outlets, including some foreign journalists who are doing some live coverage and media coverage in general for some international and regional uh media channels. this is the area where i was targeted and injured and where i sustained my injuries, i tried my best to stay away, i tried my best also to to establish what was happening, but it was far beyond my capacity because of the very strong explosion. and because of the surprise and because of the injury. palestinian
9:14 am
journalists continued to deliver audio and video reports during the war that so displeas the israeli government and military, it issued a statement which palestinian journalists interpreted as a preface to direct targeting. prior to targeting the first journalist in the gaza strip, hamed shahab, through their media office issued a public statement ordering foreign journalists who had entered the gaza strip to go to the beach hotel for sanctuary. we issued immediate statement telling palestinian journalists that it meant they were being targeted as long as they were not included in the statement. that was our perception of this. on the eve of july. 9th 2014, the first israeli aerial bombardment took place in what
9:15 am
is considered the high-class neighborhood of al-remal in gaza city. the target of the rate was an automobile carrying a sign that red press on it and driven by journalist hamed shahab with co-worker hatim selme at his side. they had stopped by hatim's home to briefly check on his family, whom he had not seen in a while. shihaab. remained in the car outside, a minute or two later, while hatim was with his family, a missile hit their home. anhamat shahab lost his partner. day in a row without going home. i went then, returned home, had bath and changed my clothes. i saw my family, but decided not to see my mother, as i knew she would become too emotional. you know how mothers get after their sons are away for a while. hamed
9:16 am
phoneed me to say he was coming to my home. i went to the balcony to watch for him, but he said he couldn't see me. he told me he was entering the street and i was looking down both sides to find him. he entered from the kazim area from the opposite lane because he was coming from our sabra neighborhood, so he said he is now in the street, and i told him i saw him and ended the call. i was going downstairs, my mother was there, and she commented that she had not seen me in a while and that she missed me. i was touched and moved back to kiss her hands and head, and i was about to hold my brother's hand. and we were leaving the mosque after tarawi prayers, we sat with my cousins and few unkles next to a press vehicle, ladies and gentlemen, we're now going live to the gaza strip where the
9:17 am
israeli regime has continued it's in indiscriminate bombing of um residential areas and buildings. these are live images that we're getting from gaza right now as another building has been targeted by uh the uh israeli eerial attacks, we can see that uh plums a smoker builling through the air. this comes uh right on the heels of hundreds of others being killed in israeli air strike a hospital in gaza city. the health ministry in the ghaza strip says that hundreds of victims. are still trapped under the rubble as we speak of the al-ahli arabi hospital. thousands of civilians were seeking medical treatment and shelter there. the hamamus resistance movement strongly condemned the attack saying that israel is committing genocide in every sense of the world, the word this attack has received condemnations
9:18 am
from all over the world from uh various country leaders and uh un officials to people alike as uh the israelis have been continuing this uh deadly onslot on the gaza strip for if i'm to be correct 12 days now uh the attacks have been ongoing the death toll has uh risen to 3200, thousands have been injured, among those 3200, it's reported that around maybe a thousand of them are uh innocent women and children that have been killed by the israeli war machine as it has been continuously attacking and bombing the
9:19 am
gaza strip uh ever since last saturday when the gaza base resistance resistance movement uh hamas and other gaza based resistance groups launched the anti-israeli operation alasa storm and response to the israeli aggression, the decades old occupation and the the killing of palestinians a violation their rights, the list goes on and on, so the death toll from israel's bombardment as well mention is surpassed uh the 3,000 marks since the war broke out on october 7th, a third of those killed are believed to be children. the palestinian health ministry says around 13,000 people have also been injured. in a
9:20 am
recent attack that took place earlier today we had breaking news for you that 45 palestinians uh were killed uh and this is happening as anger boils worldwide after uh the israeli hospital massacre. people all over the world have uh been gathering in rallies condemning the israeli onslot on the gaza strip that's that was even before this um a targeting of of hospital under international law medical facilities targeting. such uh facilities and um venues that are designated for the assistance of those during uh wartime is - considered to be against international law, however on uh numerous occasions we've seen the israels totally and absolutely ignore international
9:21 am
law and uh unfortunately no repercussions uh for this behavior of the israeli regime, thousands right now are also rallying in the west bank city. of ranova to vent their anger over the uh israeli hospital attack, people uh in the iranian capital tehron also took to the streets immediately after israel's unprecedented attack a hospital in gaza killed hundreds of palestinians, however uh, i think that using the word unprecedented, i caution using that word, because israel has in the past attacked hospitals and medical facilities and united nations run shelters in the ghaza strip on numerous occasions, so this is not basically unprecedented, when it comes to the uh israeli behavior uh against
9:22 am
palestinians, specifically against palestinians in the gaza strip, protesters in tehran chanted slogans against the british and french embassies, outside the british and french embassy, similar demonstrations were also held in other iranian cities as well. uh, all the participants in these worldwide rallies are condemning israel's attack on the ahli arab hospital in gaza, the carnage has also drawn convennations from other countries around the world, a crowded protest was also held uh in ramalo, protesters in the joordanian capital, amman also attempted to storm the israeli embassy after the regime's bombing of the hospital in uh gaza and montreal and canada protesters took to the streets. not long after the gaza hospital attack uh there were also other protests in different countries which ultimately turned violent as well. now iran's foreign minister,
9:23 am
let's uh focus on some of the uh reactions uh from uh countries officials and world leaders, iran's foreign minister has vehemently condemned israel's bloody attack on the palestinian hospital in the besieged ghaza strip and these are like... images that we're getting from gaza, you can see the scope of destruction that the israeli attacks have left behind, this is all happening as israel has been uh has implemented a a full-out land, air and sea blockade on the gaza strip since 2007, food rations, necessities, other immunities, and even electricity uh were already very scarce, leading up to the... recent israeli onslot on uh on the besieged gaza strip and as of last monday the uh israelis uh they just uh choked
9:24 am
off gaza from the entire world completely as they implemented a full-on siege on the besieged gaza strip cutting off uh all crossings into and out of gaza which basically means that uh gaza and have no access uh to food, water, electricity and uh much needed medicine at this point as the death toll continues to rise, the injured also the number uh keeps arising as well, and to uh to add to the suffering of the palestinians in gaza, israelis go out and attack uh a... hospital in gaza city as well, at first they were denying uh the attack, but uh there were comments uh on uh on social
9:25 am
media by advisors to the israeli prime minister uh that they were claiming the attack on the hospital in uh gaza, and so many are still tropped under the rubble as we speak, and so many have perished as a result of... the attack on the ahli al arabi hospital in ghaza city. well the iranian president is also waiting on the issue as well. he says that uh the quote sinus will soon be consumed by the flames of the israeli-american bombs dropped on the gaza hospital. so as we're speaking uh the israeles are continuing with their indiscriminate attacks on uh palestinians in
9:26 am
the gaza strip, this is day 12 of the non-stop israeli bombardment of uh palestinians in gaza ever since uh the gaza based resistance groups launched operation alasa storm against uh the uh the israelis on october 7th that saturday october the 7th uh in what is uh being deemed as collective. punishment of the entire population in gaza, israel has launched uh its uh devastating attacks against the palestinians there which many have already attributed to being genocide and are calling these attacks war crimes. well the palestinian resistance
9:27 am
movement says way. on what took place following the bombardment of the hospital in gaza that killed hundreds of people, in addition to all those who have been killed uh, ever since the israelies launched uh the uh the carnage and devastating attack on palestinians in gaza, the hamas political bureau chief ismail hannah said that the united states should be held responsible for the carnage since washington is uh giving cover to israel's relentless attacks. that too is a comment that has been echoed by many. world leaders around the globe, the iranian president has uh mentioned that what's taking place right now in gaza has obviously received a green light from the likes of the united states uh we uh focused on the demonstrations that are taking place worldwide a little earlier numerous cities are uh seeing such prop'. palestinian rallies
9:28 am
taking place in support of uh gazans and also condemning uh the israeli attacks and a little further than that are calling for the liberation of palestine, in its entirety, basically calling for the rule of international law, and demanding that israel and its occupation, that's that too is a uh a request and demand that has been echoed for decades by... both in the ghaza strip and in the occupied west bank is for the israelis to uh end the occupation of palestinian land, which is considered as the root cause of this vicious cycle of violence that we've been seeing, and now uh lebanon, lebanon's hezbollah movement has announced an unprecedented day of rage on wednesday, that's today to condemn the israeli hospital
9:29 am
raid. now as we were talking a little bit earlier about the us support for the israelis, us is now sending lethal guided bomb units to israel as the regime continues with its bloodiest onslot, against the palestinians inform sources talking to press tv said that the u.s. is deploying a group of transport aircraft from its bases in both europe and asia to deliver the munitions to israel, that's also based on some updates and intel from the international air traffic control center. these guided bombs are the most destructive munition so far used to target both residential areas and critical infrastructure in gaza. let's also not forget uh the confirmed reports of the use of white phosphorus munitions against residential populated residential areas uh in gaza by the israels and that too is not the first time that this type of munition has been used against uh the uh the palestinians this area
9:30 am
uh uh in um in the gaza strip is uh is highly densely populated and is uh considered due to this circumstances that the israelis have implemented on the 2.3 million gasons living there has been considered to be the world's largest open air prison and there we have uh more news as the uh condemnations and uh anger continues with regards uh to the israeli onslot on the ghaza strip, the palestinian president mahmoud abbas has apparently withdrawn from a meeting with us president joe biden, also jordan uh has counteled a meeting with us president joe biden as well, as we can see so many of these uh countries and these officials, they do hold the united states accountable as well for the uh scope of death and destruction and suffering of the palestinian people and the palestinians in gaz.
