"iraq's prime minister once again calls for the withdrawal of us forces from his country saying it is crucial for iraq's security and stability and of several palestinians are killed in israely attacks on gaza where the death tool has already passed 24,600."

hello everyone, it's 11 am the yemmeny capital son on, you're watching press tv, world news. the yemani army says is targeted an american ship in the gulf of aiden in response to us-uk strikes on the arab country. the naval forces of the yemen armed forces carried out "the targeting operation against an american ship came ranger in the gulf of eden with several appropriate naval missiles resulting in direct hits. sorry, you described as inevitable yemen's retaliation for the aggression by the us and uk. he added any new strike on yemen will not go unanswered or unpunished. the us has confirmed the attack its ship. the pentagon of says it was a third attack by yemenis this week on us own vessels. in and around the red

sea. that's a crucial lane for international trade where attentions have been spiking over the last two months. a yemen has been attacking israeli-link ships in retaliation for the regime's campaign of genocide in gaza. tensions in the red sea have escalated further in the past week after the us and the united kingdom began air strikes on yemen citing what they called threats to international shipping. our correspondent. latif al washal earlier joined us out of sona for more on tensions in the red sea. uh, even through the nine years of war that the yemenis have been facing from the satellite coalition, which was backed by washington and also uh the uk. yemenis have never attacked any ship in the red sea, they did nothing, but now they are doing this just to protect the palestinian people to support the palestinian people who are facing a genocidal war being carried out by. the israeli regime,

the yemenis will do this just to support the palestinian people, with the yemenis did nothing for themselves, but they are doing this, the attacks for the palestinian people, if you just keep following the news, you will know that the just the us is attempting to turn the region into a battlefield, and they are just pushing the countries of the region to fight each other as they did during seven or nine years or four by pushing saudi arabia to fight the '. people to kill the yemani people and now they are just attempting to support the israeli regime by uh pushing the region into new regional war. all what they care about is only the israeli regime. why don't they just stop the war that is happening against the palestinians in gaza? this will make sure, this will of course protect the international navigation and international shipping, but they don't want to do this, they just keep attacking their many people even when they... that these

attacks will never stop uh the yemeni army from attacking the israelian vessels. the attacks or the strikes of the uk and the us of did nothing, but they have just pushed the yemani army to include now the american and the british ships in the red sea and the gulf of eden. so why would they do such thing when they know that it will not be successful according to their statements? thousands of people hit the streets of yemen's northern city of saada to voice support for palestinians in the wake of israel's genocidal war on gaza. demonstrators wave palestinian and yemeny flags chanting us is the mother of terrorism. the slogan is a reminder of washington's unequivocal support for the israeli regime as well as it.

aggression against yemen, protesters also slamed us move to redesignate yemen's ancerla movement as a terrorist organization. for weeks, yemenese have been holding nationwide rallies every friday and it shows. support for the people of gaza. as we just said, the us has relisted yamizan surla movements as a global terrorist group over attacks against israely link ships in the red sea. yemeny citizens have spoken out about the us move as was ongoing strikes by washington and london against their country. they can hit as much as they want. we are ready to support the palestinian cause until the last. breath, we, along with the generations after us, will continue to confront them, their repeated attacks will never deter us. america has been striking us for a long time. the aggression against us is veiled under the name of the saudi and emirati aggression, but america has

been bombing us for a long time. this decision is a political move to cover up israel's crimes, claiming that we are a terrorist group is to justify the air strikes on. this decision is not new, it's not an objective decision and is not based any real evidence, because this decision was made before, this classification was approved during the era of former us president trump then the hutis were removed from the terror list. this proves that it was decision that was not based on practical reality, rather, this indicates that the us makes these decisions to blackmail people and to use the decision like sword against anyone, who stands against american and israeli interests. this classification on the list of terrorism is under our feet. we don't care about it. we have fought wars for nine years and from the first day we have been attacked by the us, israel and britain, and this is not counting their agents from the arab

countries. we say to them, if answer allah are classified as a terrorist group, then what about israel? what about the us that kills innocent palestinian children and that destroys home? above their residence, what do we say about them? are they not our arab brothers and is palestine not arab like us? isn't it our right to stand up and defend our palestinian people with all we've got? palestinians are our brothers and we will not be silent about them and we will not let them down. now political commentator hussen khaiti gives us his views on washington move to blacklist the answer. designation of the united states doesn't, i mean in here in yemen, they don't care about that, but they are honored uh to to to have that realisting as a terrorist organization, because we know and as said abdul malik have said, united state is just the face of the crime, united

state is one of the country that have destroyed uh, i mean the have destruction wherever they go, so we are honored to be designated as terrorist because as al they say one man terrorist is another man freedom uh fighter and i just want to add that there are three ship that united state owned ship that has been uh targeted, two of them was after this relisting of ansarullah as a terrorist organization and there's a clear message that here in yemen they actually will can will not stop their attack but they will continue their attack against israeli linked ship or israeli own ship or ships. going toward israel and sayid abdul malik have said today that as well british ship will come under attack and as uh the spoke person of yemani army have said in his statement that the retaliation of the attack on yemen by the united states and uk it will and it's still

to come more than 500 the children were killed during the conflict what have they gone wrong, being born in gaza is not the crime, more than year after the war was waged by the israeli regime on the gaza strip, and approximately year after the cairo donors conference was held for rebuilding gaza, the reconstruction project is still teatering between the cruelty of the siege and the procrastination of the israeli regime. what we are doing here to keep people surviving, we are not talking about quality of life. in gaza, if you look deeply in what is going on in gaza, you will find out big slogan that there is no tomorrow, all agree that the slowdown in the reconstruction is due to the slow process of transferring funds pledged by the donor countries of the cairo conference,

where the unwell received only $270 million while the required budget is much more. and welcome back everyone you're watching press tv world news. eurox's prime minister has reiterated his government's opposition to the presence of us forces in the country. muhammad shih al sudani. says american troops must leave as daesh is no longer a threat to iraq. the reasons for the presence of coalitions forces were to confront daesh. today the security situation to the testimony of all specialists in iraq and friends, daesh does not pose a threat to the iraqi state. today, after the repercussions and attacks on the iraqi security headquarters, we have the right to start this dialogue. immediately in order to reach an agreement on arranging a time table for the end of the mission of

international advisors of the republic of iraq. sudan he was addressing panel discussion at the world economic forum in the swiss city of dawos, he said ending us military presence is crucial for iraqi security and stability. now his remarks came as us bases in iraq have been repeatedly attacked by iraqi resistance groups over washington support for israeli genocide. campaign in gaza. in response, us military is launch attacks on iraq's popular mobilization units, killing a number of their members. iraqi government has slammed us attacks as a grave violation of the country's sovereignty. last year sudani vowed before the iraqi parliament to put an end to us military presence in iraq. the reasons for the presence of coalitions. political commentator christopher hilali has shared his views on this issue with us. he's. "us insistance on maintaining a military presence in iraq is actually aimed at being close to iran,

everywhere the us goes, they bring with them destruction, kudatas, color revolutions and so on and so forth. the main idea here for us to analyze is why the us has stayed after all these years since the defeat of daesh, and we recognize and we can understand that..." reason isn't about daesh, the reason isn't about iraq, the reason is ultimately about iran. the reason is to have a military position close enough to the islamic republic of iran where the united states can continue to project its its power, and of course we know from the the the former national security advisor johnton that the united states has been funneling arms and equipment to... various terrorist entities across the border into iran and has been funding and

training and promoting terrorist organizations that seek to overthrow the islamic republic like the terrorist organization, the mujahadin a halk in albania, so of course we recognize that the us being there is one to project its aims at tehran, they has nothing to do with anybody else in the region. now earlier this week, iran's islamic revolution guard core fired a barrage of missiles at an espionage center of the israeli spy agency the massad in iraq's kurdistan region. and one of the people killed in that operation was a kurdish multi-millionaire oil tycoon peshral majid agadizai and now photos obtained by press tv have established his musad connections and now he was vital cog in israeli spy agency's operations in the iraqi kurdistan mainly against iran. one of the photos shows dizai who had close ties with the musad with rabbi at event held to celebrate the jewish

festival of yaom kipper. another photo shows him besides musad agent ilan nisim as well as hussein yazdon pano commander of an anti-iran terrorist group. according to inform sources, ilan was key musad officer who coordinated agency operations in iran and iraqi kurdistan. the sources say ilan was also killed in that irgc. attack along with four other members of his espinage team, dizai had made a fortune from illegal exports of iraqi oil to the regime in tel aviv, he also headed the falcon group conglomerate with business interests in security, oil, gas, construction and agriculture. 105 days into israeli war on gaza, and the regime continues with his carpet bombing campaign across a besieg palestinian territory, in the latest such attacks, at least five people were killed in an israeli air strike on a residential

building in khan unis in southern gaza. another 12 people lost their lives in a strike at an apartment near alsifa hospital in gaza city. latest casualties bring to more than 180 number of palestinians killed in israeli raids across gaza over the last 24 hours. raids were conducted under cover of near total communications blackout over. all death told from regimes war has now passed 24,600, meanwile un rights expert says what is israel is doing in gaza is violation of international law and refugee camp in the middle of the gazo strip speak about the situation they face following the withdrawal of israeli forces from their area. this occupation army is a failing army, we are

civilians who are saying safely in our homes, but we found them raiding us without warning and striking us with shells and rockets, all the occupation forces, the situation in the market and nusirat is good after a continuous bombing by the occupation forces, buildings and houses in general were destroyed, roads, infrastructures, suit and wells were also destroyed in the nusir refugee camp, but thank god after the withdrawal the situation is getting better and people started to... was an obstacle to the enemy vehicles, the massive skill of destruction that was left after the withdrawal of the 36th division, as you can see, the infrastructure, the communication and internet networks and all the switch networks were struck and flattened, and some bodies of marters are

still under rubble. and now israel confirms new military losses and clashes of palestinian resistance fighters in the gaza strip. the military says an israeli troop died of wounds he sustained in a battle in southern gaza on wednesday. three reservists were also wounded seriously in the north and center of the besiest enclave. according to 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 the israely. hides the uh israel that is highs the true number of its military losses, meantime, a military wing of palestines hamas resistance movement has said that their fighters targeted a merkava tank with three soldiers aboard. the al-qassan brigades also detonated the mouth of a tunnel in a gaza city neighborhood as a group of israeli infantries were there. like

many countries around the world, austrians have held rallies to express solid. with palestinians in gaza, people have taken to the streets defying a ban on such demos. our correspondent in viena has asked some austrians about media bias and the lack of coverage of pro-palestine voices. since i am mainly influenced by austrian television, i think it is very onesited. i read lot of international newspapers and their reporting there is entirely different than on austrian television, namely, it is not as onesited. in austria, there is much reporting from israel's perspective and the situation in a gaza strip is only featured in very few media outlets, above all there is hardly any information about what the civilian population in gaza is doing, when you come in maybe austria uh is is a bit uh bias, yeah uh also uh the mensous where you can in nowadays

where you can find the truth is through social media because uh now uh you have access to to information uh from there also and people uh say the truth and you can see uh the murder of the child uh the children in gaza what you cannot see in the media the decision uh take in un also that uh hiding for people hide it for people and you can see it uh through social media yeah this is the this is my opinion there is some uh how can i say some major have a high agenda? yeah, some them, not all of them. yeah, i missed the media coverage of the background to the conflict, the history, the connections, horrible images are shown enough, but not enough information is given to the people about what led to the war and the attacks. i

can hardly manage to watch all the hardship and atrocities in the reports about the war. overall, i am very skeptical about them. coverage, i have the feeling that the reporting is very one-sided, only presenting israel's perspective. i do not want to defend violence, but there is a reason why this all happened. if you constantly maltreat someone, then of course you have to expect a backlash at some point. the way israel is reacting here with such exaggeration is nothing other than genocide. i admire south africans who have the courage to call out israel. in austria, the media does not have the courage to do this. "i feel like the news in the west is too pro israel, there's also a lot of fake news on next and twitter, to better understand the situation, people should see more of the gruesome images of violence and suffer." bring in gaza. in the us election season is already here, but with far more dread than hope. many believe there will be

even more turmoil this november than back in 2020, with widespread concerns about election related violence. 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 party's kickoff to primary season, 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 will 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. i 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. byden will pull out in the first quarter of this year and not be the nominee, so i think anything, anything and everything 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's 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. to be decided by less than four and a half points. i think that's that's the crypt tonight for joe biden, he's he's screwed up that that situation so badly that you know the younger generations turned 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. to support a ceasefire in gaza to those who don't by a whopping two to one margin. ramin mazahari, press tv, chicago. and that's it
