5:32 am

5:33 am
correspondent mariam sal joined us earlier with more details and the latest israeli attacks across southern lebanon. let's take a look: around an hour ago we heard sounds of very loud explosions and there was a very heavy uh strike on the town of kamati as well as the town of kaifoon. these are towns in the area which is in mount lebanon. it is outside the area which is usually targeted in the southern suburbs of beirot, the mount lebanon area was usually in the past uh areas where the displaced seek safe haven, especially from the southern suburbs of bayrut, and so you have them basically jam-packed with displaced people, especially from the southern suburbs, we know that the result of that shell, that shelling included six marters, including women and children, of course we are still... waiting for details to
5:34 am
know exactly how many murders and injured and so on. you also have the fact that the israelies seem to be now preparing to try in other areas they have failed to try to invade or to launch incursions into the eastern side of the border more towards aadaise and maras and yarun. there is an expectation that they might try on the western side which is closer to the towns of itarun for example. and dirmesh and ramya, of course there is an expectation that they might do that, but it seems that hazbullah is also targeting and launching their rockets on all the bases that are near the border as well. our correspondent robert lakish earlier joined us from the canadian city of calgary with more on israeli aggression against lebanon and the lebanese resistance response. let's take a listen. well, evidently this is collective
5:35 am
punishment, which is being waged against the levanese people, like it was waged against the palestinian people as well, we see in the gaza strip of air minimum of around 420. people have been killed, the vast majority of those are civilians of course, in lebanon as well, this is the same thing, this is why they are blowing updahya, that's why they are taking down residential buildings, not with regular ammunitions, no, they have decided to use munitions, chemical munitions even which are banned in order to carry out their attacks and their strikes. the israelis are embolden, they have the full backing of the united states, the united states is not interested in any... form of a cease fire in gaza or anywhere else. in the case of lebanon with lebanese hesball, what we're seeing is that they are playing out a strategy at the moment which has various elements to it. they know that it's going to be a long conflict, and so they are operating a basis that it
5:36 am
will be a long conflict, and we're seeing that incrementally new kinds of operations are uh taking place, that there are new calculations, new types of missiles, different targets. that are coming into the fold, and the israelis most likely as well, when they're losing on one front or they're being batchered on one front and their soldiers are dying for instance, they'll move to another.
5:37 am
palestinians in uh in the gaza's trip continue to face relentless onslot as the us israely genocidal war on the block. the territory is about to enter its second year. in one of the attacks 10 civilians, mostly children were injured after the regime hits tens of the displaced people inside alarter's hospital in the city of balah. this war planes also struck house in the alshadi refugee camp in gaza city, killing several palestinians including woman and a girl. to the north, an israeli drone strike, targeting the jabal refugee camp killed a member. member of the un agency for the palestinian refugees, a palestinian journalist will was also killed in the northern gaza, in sassen strikes have already pushed gaza's vital infrastructure, including health facilities to the brink of collapse. 23 out of 38
5:38 am
hospitals in gaza are now out of service. authorities say nearly 1,00 healthcare workers have been killed. the war has so far claimed the lives of more than 41,800 palest. and injured some 97 thousand others our corresponding joined us earlier from the central gaza city of more details now let's take a lesson this actually the northern part of gaza strip is still the focal area of the israel attacks targeting elsewhere in gaza whereas as you know the israelation forces are still carrying out there. ground offensive against the jabala refugee camp, particularly the eastern part of the refugee camp, we are talking about continuous and heavy bombams that are still heading various parts of the area, targeting the palestinan residential buildings and as you know the last night was horrifying for the palestinian people whereas at least 30 palestinian
5:39 am
civilians have been reportedly killed when the israel incubation forces impacked on carrying out that ground offensive but there is shining is still hitting is still maintained heavily against those areas. and as you the palestinian people there are still trapped under this continuous and heavy bombardments of the israel incubation forces and they are still being stopped by the israel incubation forces which are still preventing an eng of the humanitarian supplies to the people are still trapped there the main reason behind this genocidal attack and this ground offensive carried out against jabal refugee camp is to push the palestinian people to evacuate that refugee camp it is the second time in a row for the israelic evition forces to carry out such a brutal ground. offensive against jabal refuji cam, if you still remember that over the past three months the israel incubation forces carried out one of the most horrifying and crutal ground offensives, it was a wide scale ground offensive target jabal refugee camp and it lift the entire refugee camp completely destroyed and devastated and as
5:40 am
israel's genocidal war against gaza continues on abaded the palestinians in the besieges trip still show matchless resilience in the face of the daily. is imposed on them, press correspondent reports, it will go down in box that palestinian people in gaza faced one of... the most horrifying genocidal wars that have ever been waged against any people throughout history and remained fast in their land uh undoubtedly the palestinian people are still steadfast. this brutal war on gaza is a continuation of the israeli massacres committed during the first nakba in 1948. it is not surprising for the israeli occupation to commit these. crimes, however, we palestinians are resilient enough to survive and overcome the agonizing aftermaths of this
5:41 am
war. the opposite scene of this staggering scale of masskilling and destruction is the scene of resilience that has begun to unfold since the first days of the genocide in gaza. this astonishing resilience of the people stems from the unwavering belief they have in their right to freedom and dignity. i have lost 18 members of my family, for us as palestinian people, we have no choice but to resist and remain steadfast, simply because we are the real owners of this land. we clearly understand that the israeli occupation wants to push us to leave and load life in this territory, but this is not going to happen, at the end of the day we will prevail. and people have realized from the beginning of their struggle that the undeclared objective of israel is to make
5:42 am
staying and living in the strip unbearable for them. although the world still shrugs of the israeli atrocities against palestinians, the resilience of the palestinian people in gaza amid the ongoing genocide and destruction offers a concrete evidence that the palestinian people are the real indigenous of this land
5:43 am
israel's genocidal war has not only devastated the gaz trip but has also intensified violations in the occupied west bank where land confiscation, water shortages and settler violence have reached alarming levels over the past these combined crises have heightened the suffering of palestinians as israel's inhumane policies continue to tighten grip over palestinian land and resources. now hamed has more in this report. as the war on gaza rolls into its second year, global calls for accountability grow louder. the one movement that has surged into influence during this time is the boycott, divestment and sanctions. campaign bds: a grassroots people's initiative aimed to pressuring israel to comply with
5:44 am
international law through economic and cultural boycots. since its launch in 2005, the bds has involved into global force and amed the ongoing assault on gaza, its relevance and impact have become more profound. this approach is crucial in isolating and weakening israel, stripping it of legitimacy and curbing its regional ambitions. israel seeks dominance. in west asia through diplomacy, technology and industry, but boycots and sanctions can hinder its move. recently, israel allocated over $500 million dollars to counter the international impact of the boycott movement. as a peaceful resistance, boycott unites justice seeking people from all backgrounds, making it a key tool which can be exercised by average individuals across the world against the israeli aggression. in 2023, the bd. this campaign targeted companies like puma and helued paccord for profiting from the occupation. over 200 organizations called
5:45 am
for puma's divestment and 22% of european universities backed bds pulling millions from companies involved in israeli settlements. major firms like ben and jerry's and g4s ended operations in the occupied territories and european pension funds divested billions from israeli banks tied to the regime's settlement expansion. there has been progress in the boycott movement, but the occupation persists because it remains profitable with little international accountability or effective sanctions, while improvements are noticeable, more... effort is needed. the boycott was once more widespread, but now there's a growing popular boycott in arab and muslim countries, which we hope continues as the true nature of the occupation becomes clearer. but despite its growing momentum, the bts movement has not been without opposition. governments including the united states and germany, have passed anti-bds legislations, labeling the movement,
5:46 am
anti-semitic and accusation denied by its supporters. as israel's military operations in gaza escalate. "the influence of the bds movement has reached new heights. it's no longer just a protest, it's a global response to what many see as human rights violations, and the pressure is mounting on companies and governments alike. hamed reporting for press tv. ramallah. iran's president says his country's recent missile strike against israel was aimed at containing the brutality the regime and..." preventing it from spreading its attacks across the region. masud pizishkian added that iran's retaliatory move was based on the un charter and within the framework of international law. pesition was speaking in a phone call with dutch prime minister dick shkuf. the iranian president also said that his country is not seeking war and conflict at all. during the phone conversation. pesishion

criticized western countries for their silence on israel's terror actions including. the assassination of hamas chief ismail hania in tehran. for his part, the dutch premier said west asia does not have the capacity for more tensions, calling on all parties to avoid escalationh added, his country has asked israel to agree to a gaza cease fire deal as soon as possible. are into israel's genocide in gaza, australians continue to show. support for palestine, tens of thousands of people gathered on the streets of sydney on sunday to voister anger over the ongoing israeli bombings, protesters called for sanctions on israel urging stronger action against the regime, our correspondent shahana bad reports from sydney, emiten
5:48 am
security, many australians took to the streets to express the solidarity with the people of palestine and... on for the past 52 weeks, these demonstrators have consistently joined the global outcry against what they describe as israel's genocide in gaza and lebanon. the streets echoed with chance for palestine and lebanon as demonstrators marched raising their voice in unison. protesters demanded regime's accountability calling for an end to the violence and urging the international community to act. the sham of western democracy. has been exposed, and i think a lot of it has to do with the fact that um war is profit and us and western australian interests are being protected, so at the end of the day if they wanted to change things and they could sanction israel and do what they've done to russia with ukraine, it's a double standard. the pro-
5:49 am
palestine demonstrations over the past year have become the largest in australia's history with numbers growing. every week, determined movement that will not be silent until australia cuts its ties with the apart state of israel, and the australian government stops its policy of uh condoning and being complicit in israel's genocide in gaza and its invasion in lebanon. this week's protest saw a large participation of children as families brought the next generation to join the movement. many here believe that the call for justice and peace must be passed on. ensuring that future generations are both avere of the ongoing struggles and prepared to stand against injustice. there's no protest in australian history that's lasted as long and has been as big as this. pro- palestinian groups in australia are set to hold a wigel on october the 7th to mark one year since the escalation of violence against
5:50 am
palestinians by israeli forces. these groups are also raising concerns the australian government's perceived complicity, calling for stronger action and accountability in response to the ongoing genocide. as the israel's actions escalate, the global demand for immediate cease fire and justice for the people of palestine has grown stronger. there are increasing calls to hold responsible the perpetrators of war crime. shahanabat, press tv, sydney. toronto's famous yungan dunda square was packed in all directions as thousands escended downtown and in the latest mass anti-israel demonstration, this time, marking year of resistance and renewing the call for canada to end its complicity in the
5:51 am
crimes of the israeli occupation. we are out here today joining um thousands and thousands of people in the street of toronto to demand cease fire first and foremost in gaza and to stop the genocide, which has been going on for almost a year, it'll be year and two days. mean, a time when israel is escalating things and it looks like the us is in. on green lighting new war in the middle east uh in order to basically reset and stop the decline of american imperialism uh and our government is going along with it, they're giving diplomatic cover, there's still arms deals going on with israel even though that they're saying that they're doing an arms embargo, so we're here to denounce canadian complicity. political organizations, unions, students and neighborhood associations and range of communities organized pro-palestinian rallies which came to a single voice, that is to express the urgent need for immediate action to be taken by the government against israel, and to cut off all resources to the regime. we certainly don't
5:52 am
think it's acceptable that one nation oppresses, occupies and in fact engages in genocidal practices against another people. i mean, we're not the big player, but we are a player, and we should not be complicit with. government in in israel that is engaging in genocide and trying to provoke a bigger war. demonstrators remember the tens of thousands of victims in gaza and also the victims in lebanon and syria. protesters also called for an end to israel's aggression against lebanon in order to stop further escalation into a regional war. among the many campaigns was a campaign of hundreds of trade unionists who are raising awareness both in their work. places and outside about the necessity of fighting for an end to the bloodshed in gaza. we are trying to show that the trade union movement is support of the struggle of the palestinian people for a cease fire. we want
5:53 am
to end the arm shipment from canada to israel and we are fighting very strongly for uh an end to the war and the end of the killings that we're seeing in gaza and now in lebanon. every aspect of life has been um completely destroyed in palestine by israel. and so it is essential for workers here to say, we will not participate in the genocide of the palestinian people, and as workers, we identify with them. um, our pensions, our pensions are enrolled in in funds that fund genocide, that's unacceptable to workers, so we're fighting that, we don't want our money, the work from our labor to go toward the genocide. today's marge kicks off series of actions. that will include vigils, student walkouts and other protest actions over the coming week to raise consciousness and to pressure the trudo government to fulfill its

5:55 am
role of the access of resistance in general, isn't it? in syria, and iraq, and iran, and yemen. the role is to try and hold the count, which the whole world should be doing. this is about people who got silenced but kept fighting. supervision and controlling of freedom of speech only comes up when you're criticizing israel. 45 palessing journalists behind israeli bars at the moment. they warn students that if they remain here they will be arrested. this is about the voices of palestine.
