they will actually be deployed to tanf, which is a us military base in syria. "the arrival of so many forces and so much military hardware comes a time when the us has officially announced that it intends to draw down its troops in syria and then withdraw from the country, which is a bit strange. even stranger is that the americans have set up base in the middle of the desert and have enlarged and equipped it to this extent within two years. cbs news came to this place called atonf with general frank mckenzie, commander of us forces in the middle east. david, we're standing on the damascus, baghdad highway, just inside uh, just inside syria, and what we're doing here is supporting our partners in the fight against isis. however, not all the people here are americans. some members of serious opposition visit the tanf base regularly, apart from their looks and uniforms, they can be recognized by their arabic language and their toyota vans. it appears they are opposed to the syrian government and have come together to fight the syrian army, but it appears that the

some members of syria's opposition visit the tanf base regularly. apart from their looks and uniforms, they can be recognized by their arabic language and their toyota vans. it appears they are opposed to the syrian government and have come together to fight the syrian army, but it appears that their main mission after protecting the american base. is controlling the roads that pass through tanv هذه الكتيبه من جيش مقاول الثوره تقوم بتجهيز عداتها للذهاب الى منطقه الزقف وتبديل نقاط الرباط في المنطقه. of course, that's how they describe their mission, but the images of damaged trailers and trucks suggest their main aim is disrupting the traffic on this trade route so that nothing passes through it, especially trucks carrying goods. the americans have repeatedly threatened to destroy anything that enters the 50 km radius of the base. what strange is that this base is built exactly a route which is the commercial and economic lifeline of syria. let's take a look at the map one more time. tanf is exactly here and these red lines leading to the base are th

including through tanf funding, the temporary assistance to needy families.e's been growing evidence and a raft of studies showing that critical tanf aid for families is being diverted to purposes not authorized by congress. one of the greatest causes of concern is the sigh ofonning of federal -- sign offing of federal -- syphoning of federal, which are a part of the global anti-abortion movement. there's a growing body of evidence that these csi centerse and coercive tactics to prevent people from accessing a full range of appropriate reproductive health care, including safe abortion care ann benign, pro-family rhetoric, these pregnancy centers distribute diapers and formula in order to disguise their underlying anti-abortion mission. e great dangers of these crisis pregnancy centers is they present themselves as legitimate health care facilities but the reality is that most are unlicensed, unstaffed by medical professionals, and unbound by the privacy laws that govern medical providers. this has led to women being misled and given inaccurate or even dangero

which meets the tanf purposes of assisting needy families and government. it is imperative that we protect this funding and the vital services pregnancy resource centers provide for our families and communities. i reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentlewoman from california is recognized. ms. sanchez: yes, mr. speaker, i yield 2 1/2 minutes to the gentlewoman from kansas, ngresswoman davids. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from kansas is recognized. ms. davids: mr. speaker, when roe v. wade was overturned, people were scared. they feared for the future of their rights and the ability to make deeply personal decisions about their own bodies. i've heard from many people who are concerned that their children and grandchildren might grow up with less rights than they had. in august of02 voices overwhelmy clear. politics and politicians have no place in the middle of health care decisions. those decisions are between a person and their doctor alone. however, despite the resounding messages delivered by

al-tanf army aircraft for the designers.is important to the white house that everyone does their duty in the circle of its allies. on the other hand, the zionists provide services to terrorists in the occupied areas near the border of jordan and syria in their hospitals and medical centers, and with the visits of their high-ranking officials , they assure these medical units and the militants involved in the syrian field that they are by their side. . they are only fooled by public opinion. the task that is the responsibility of these tourist units of the us army. they patrol the cities kilometers away from the war zones, appearing to be conquerors in the minds of iraqis and syrians. be the fight against terrorists and all these must be added to the severe censorship of the news so that, for example, what this french researcher found out is not reflected in the public opinion of the people of the world. the same image that shows american army officers in camps , even on their tents , can hide the truth of the presence of ame

in this tanf dollar we need toed stretch those dollars to support as many situations a and it's justir communities and support women going through very difficult situations. as best as and so continuing, you know, as we've been doing these special orders, mr. speaker, we've had anindividuals from particularly texas. as the border issue continues to just rage with communities acued every're state becoming a border state because of it. texas are so passionate about this issue and that's why i welcome!h i wl a message on both the border and a pro-life message to the gentleman from 4this representative randy weber. mr. weber: i thank the gentleman. i'm going to start with what it means when we're talking about being pro life.mr let this sink. 65 million -- 65,464,760 precious babies have been killed in abortion since roe v. wade ie children, eight grandchildren, and even a greater christian anr of those three children and grandfather of those eight and now a great grandfaer is extremy personal to me. every single unborn child isav■d worth protecting. and i can tell you from ng into the m

from the onset of the war in syria, all us military bases other than tanf were established in the countriesh case they have hell of a fight, but there's massive amounts of oil, and we're securing it for a couple of reasons, number one, it stops isis, because isis got tremendous wealth from that oil, we have taken it, secured, number two, and again somebody else may claim it, but either will negotiate a deal with whoever's claiming it if we think it's fair, or we will militarily stop them very quickly, we have tremendous power in that part of the world, we have the airporters right nearby, very big, very monstrous, very very powerful airport and very expensive airport that was built years ago, we're in there for we're in that middle east 8 trillion, so we don't want to be. let's take a look at this map. nearly all us military bases are close to syria's oil rich areas. trump justifies the us encircling and extortion of these oil wells by claiming that the united states spent 8 trillion dollars. during his presidency, trump has frequently vowed to pull out us forces from the middle east, most

al-tanf military camp is important for the designers of the white house .nists in occupied areas close to the border of jordan and syria provide services to terrorists in their hospitals and medical centers, and with the visits of their high-ranking officials , they assure these medical units and the militants involved in the syrian field that they are on their side, they are only deceiving the public opinion. like the duty of these tourist units of the us army . they hide miles away. that is at a time when the resistance fighters can infiltrate the command and control centers of the americans and obtain the images of their drones and in designing operations against the terrorists from they use for example, in different areas such as biji, anbar and romadi, the operations proceeded with the least cost and casualties. it is enough to review parts of these revealing images that are published for the first time together. in this picture, isis terrorists are planting bombs and explosive traps. they are safe from explosive traps and mines that are hidden in the

the transition period, this is will, it either exists or it does not, but as for this base from the tanfdom of access to the shrines of all three religions. fourth, all states in this region must have the right to secure independent existence. fifth, the state of war must end and there must be peace has been established. brezhnev, september 15 , 1982, look, when he said this at a meeting with the delegation of the no longer existing, unfortunately, state, the people's democratic republic of yemen, and look, what was laid down during soviet diplomacy, it remained relevant until ... no, no, no, well, some things, it’s just that comparing leonid leach and mr. biden is heaven from earth, and now i would like to move from this statement to the decision of the international court in gaga. on friday it was adopted, it caused, of course, there are different interpretations, each side is trying to interpret its own benefit, but in my opinion, even if the international court did not call on israel to stop the fighting, it made a number of interim decisions there, nevertheless this is already a pre

border triangle of jordan, iraq, syria, under the name of the nato base in iran , it is also called al-tanf, in a way that even the highway route that goes from baghdad to damascus or the madira sea ends in beirut . he finds that he is passing through this area in the space of 50 kilometers here , even the american allies do not have the right to be present. al-rukban base of aruzq which jordan hosts 3 there are a thousand people from the united states of america. our viewers should understand that jordan receives hundreds of millions of dollars in grant aid from the united states of america every year. at this point , it's safe to say that under the pretext of drugs and the pretext of fighting daesh takfiris, they are actually training the free army here. giving takfiri groups here taught them in the same base where tower 22 is next to etnaf to create a cycle of reluctance that the americans will somehow stop supporting israel in the field of fighting against the oppressed people of gaza. the americans themselves create an environment that shows that this issue has become effective. in an

mientras los soldados dormian en la torre 22, una base que se encuentra cerca de la guarnicion de al-tanfnoreste de jordania y al sureste de la frontera con siria segun fuentes de nbc news, el dron utilizado en el ataque estaba cargado con explosivos. >> impacto cerca de un refugio de la algunas tropas y parecia proceder de siria. >> el gobierno estadounidense atribuyo el ataque a grupos militantes apoyados por iran este domingo, en un evento en carolina del sur, el presidente hablo del valientes en un ataque a una de nuestras bases y les pido un momento de silencio para estas tres almas y responderemos, estas son las primeras muertes de militares estadounidenses desde que hamas ataco israel el 7 de un drone pequeno. >> segun el analista militar octavio perez, fuerzas apoyadas por el iran, ya ha perpetrado mas de 150 ataques contra estados unidos, pero esta vez es diferente la intencion era causar mayor dano, que lo dispararon en contra de las barracas. >> en otras palabras si tu quieres hacer un objetivo militar tu disparas el puesto de comando tu dispara algun centro de municiones a las

al tanf, koban. and mambeg rather us forces have also been targeted at the al-umar oil field in therazul governor it. keep in mind that some of these locations you see here in syria and ones you saw before in iraq have come under multiple attacks. here's a tally of the number of times us assets have been targeted in the two countries around 130 attacks against its troops in iraq and syria since. october with 78 in syria and 52 in iraq. some 100 us soldiers have been injured in terms of the us troops presence in iraq and syria. there were roughly 2,500 american troops in iraq and some 900 their in syria. the us has a struck resistance groups in iraq and in syria, but the major us retaliation came recently when it carried out a targeted assassination in baghdad, violating the country's sovereignty. the... in the us assassinated was the iraqi leader mushtaq taleb al-saidi. the us blamed him for attacks against us forces in the country. okay, that's the end of this uh the explainer show in this news blitting. thank you so much for that, matthew, we do appreciate it. obviously that gives an i

the islamic resistance of iraq announced that the us military base in tanf in the southeast of syria and shaddadi in the northwest of syria were targeted by drone strikes. on friday, this iraqi group announced that it will continue its approach to confront the american occupation forces and also in response to the attacks of the zionist regime on the people of gaza and washington's support for the crimes of tel aviv and the survivors of the iraqi islamic resistance with a drone to the american base in harir in northern iraq. they attacked no one has claimed responsibility for this attack, but yemen has previously threatened to target ships and oil fields belonging to this regime in the red sea until the end of the zionist regime's invasion of the gaza strip. puts. however, these two oil tankers were targeted at a distance of more than 2,000 kilometers from bab al-mandeb and had to change their course due to the damage and the fear of attacks. since this morning, at least 15 palestinian civilians have been martyred in the attacks of the occupying regime's fighters in the central areas

iraq's islamic resistance said that it carried out drone strike, targeting america's al-tanf and al- shadii bases in syria. there are no reports of possible damage or casualties. resistance groups have carried out series of attacks against us bases in iraq and syria over the past weeks in response to washington's support for the israeli genicide in gaza. on wednesday, us forces in iraq also hit the headquarters of iraq's popular mobilization units, killing a senior commander of the resistance movement in baghdad. anti-us sentiment remains high and iraq, baghdad says the government. is seeking to permanently end the presence of the us led military coalition in the country. prime minister muhammad shih sudani says the government plans to set up a committee to range the outer of us forces. protesters have taken to the streets of the french capital paris to call for an end to the us israri genocidal war against the palestinian people in gaza. protesters waved palestinian flags and chanted slogans as they marched through the streets of paris. they called on israeli authorities to withdraw

40 missiles at the base. now moving to syria and the us assets targeted there, we are looking at al-tanf, kobani, mambej and al-omar oil filled. keep in mind that some of these locations, both in syria and iraq have been hit multiple times. when it comes down to it, the locations that are targeted in total or... too many to mention. taking a look at this map just shows the depth and extent of the areas targeted by the resistance groups. it almost looks like the resistance groups are at war with the us. how much of a hit has the us taken? here is tally of the strikes. 137 targets in total, 78 in syria and 59 in iraq. the number of soldiers to have been injured stand at over 102, just days ago, the pentagon made announcement and admitted that there have been approximately 140 attacks on us bases in iraq and syria since mid october, with 83 in syria and 57 in iraq. since the announcement, there have been two additional attacks in iraq which brought that total to 59. there was another announcement that was... made by the us after the major attack on us one and al-assad base, the us military

that the strike was carried out outside the kingdom of syrian territory, namely at the us base at et tanfost to italian janik ciner in the final of the australian open. the russian reached the finals of the tournament three times , losing all three times. despite the disappointing defeat, medvedev managed to set a number of records. more details about the match in stas's material redikultseva. the year's first grand slam tournament, the australian open , is doomed to become a myth. the visible embodiment is the fall of the titans on the court. twenty-two-year-old italian janik siner won the tournament for the first time. in the semi-finals he smashed record holder novak djokovic, and in the final he literally tore the silver salad bowl out of the hands of daniil medvedev. the russian starts the decisive match with a perfect 2:0 in games. before the final, the italian lost only one. that set to djokovic. by the third set, daniil medvedev had been on the court for almost a day, at the limit of human opportunities. just 2 days ago, the russian dramatically beat the german zverev in five sets

iraq's islamic resistance said it carried out a drone strike, targeting america's al-tanf and al-shadadie damage or casualties. resistance groups have carried out series of attacks against us bases in iraq and syria over the past weeks in response to washington's support for the israely genocide. gaza. on wednesday, us forces in iraq also hit the headquarters of iraq's popular mobilization units, killing a senior commander of the resistance movement in baghdad. anti-us sentiment remains high in iraq. baghdad says the government is seeking to permanently end the presence of the us led military coalition in the country. prime minister muhammad shah al sudani has said that the government plans to set up a committee in order to arrange the alster of us forces. tously owned oil tankers have reportedly been targeted by unidentified drones off the maldives, an archipelagic state and country in the indian ocean. informed official has been sited by the media as saying that both tankers were seriously damaged by explosions. the vessels were supposed to sail to the babel mandap straight and the red

also bases, as our viewers can see also on the breaking news, this news sticker in shadadi, rukban, tanf in syria, they have also come under drone attacks, so i want to ask you who is responsible for this spillover uh of the israeli palestinian conflict that's have been happening mostly in gaza, and of course it's spread to the west bank, we have some escalation, we have abduction, we have killing, maybe a smaller scale compared to gaza. but this uh resistance fighters have shown their uh natural and they had already warned about this and they have been pretty active and now you see that outside of the conflict zone uh we have uh us bases and israel of course is bases are being targeted inside the occupied territories now we have us bases in iraq in syria and elsewhere being hit who's responsible for this spillover and escalation um going back from day one of the conflict of the israeli aggression on gaza, i think everyone most uh and most seriously iran was warning of a possible spillover in the region as a result of the israeli actions. um, look, as your guest said, a resistance is a r

it became known that the american outpost tower 22 was an auxiliary base for the e-tanf garrison illegally used by the united states for sabotage activities. why the american military is in this region, white house press secretary karine jeanpierre does not understand. her words that the soldiers first gave their lives for the biden administration, and then for the country, caused a wave of indignation in the united states. on behalf of this administration, i mean on behalf of the american people. the level of awareness is also indicated by the fact that the photographs of the dead military personnel with which the media illustrated the news yesterday turned out to be completely different. the us army reserve soldiers killed in jordan actually look like this: two young men and a girl, all from georgia, their bodies. very bad, a us strike on iranian forces on land or at sea will give tehran a reason for an even tougher response, for example, the sinking of an american aircraft carrier will be an unbearable blow not only for the biden administration, but for the entire nation. no matter how

the tanf food, mostly phase, can be quite dangerous for people because these on things that we normally come into contact with. so they're likely to expose humans to pathogens. the immune system is not used to the mosquito species that leaving the rain forest kind of be like it hot and dry down on the forest floor, live other species that like it shade here in cooler. but when do the dangerous mosquitoes come down from the tree top? to find out adam and his team catch mosquitoes in different places, different types of. so when we see a so far as stage, whether it's through the fire station to build housing, precise timber, or to create 2 roads, we all to the conditions of the might to climate. so as far as the edge which has probably have previously been needs to far as kind of be again becomes houghton dry . and these a conditions fit these kind of p dwelling mosquitoes bases like when they come into contact with these hot and dry conditions. been more likely to, to sense of ground level and potentially have contacts, switching surveillance and the jungle may work, but it would be easi

himmars smart artillery here, what happened here was the burj 22 base, which was placed next to the al-tanfom the base of shiddadi , the al-rukban base, the arzuq base, which is jordan. it hosts 3,000 us troops our viewers should understand that jordan receives hundreds of millions of dollars in grants from the united states of america every year. at the same time, they are using drugs as an excuse to fight isis takfiris, but in fact , they are training the free army here. the takfiri groups used to train them here, in the same base where tower 22 is located, next to etnaf. islamic resistance iraqi islamic resistance groups have entered into a discussion that the maximum space they create for the americans can create a cycle of reluctance that the americans will not support in the field of fighting against the oppressed people of gaza, israel somehow stops paying these costs to the americans themselves, an atmosphere that shows that this issue has become effective. in an introduction , you actually pointed out that the united states has entered this conflict with all its strength and milita

called tower 22, which is a staging area for an american garrison, that may be too formal a word, in tanfthe border in syria. and the casualties were three. three dead, 30 wounded. and that's going to go up. many with traumatic brain injuries. so i think the options for the biden administration are not great here. there is going to be a response. both the secretary of defense and president have expressed there, obviously, opposition to these strikes, and said that there will be a response at a time of their choosing. i think, though, it may well go beyond, may well go beyond, what the united states has done in the past. and what do you think a reprisal would look like, though? who exactly would they be targeting? well, there are several options. number one, you can go after iranian revolutionary guard corps personnel, troops in iraq or syria. that's an option. number two, you could go after iranian naval assets, radar installations in the persian gulf, or you can do something that the united states has never done before. which is to strike iranian assets in iran proper. in 1988, we destro

[applause] what does this all mean? the road to recovery will be long. healing will take time. it's going to take courage and commitment from all of us we will get there as we come together as an ohana to help support the maui [applause] now, we have discussed in the we set aside up to $60 million for recovery cost of the continued well into 237. work with president by and visit administration directly to ensure that fe

the base at al tanf was later named by officials as tower 22.id the attack had been carried out by iran—backed militant groups operating in syria and iraq. he's vowed to retaliate. this was the latest in more than 100 attacks against us bases by iran—backed militias in the middle east since the current escalation in gaza between hamas which is designated a terrorist organisation by the us and the uk and us ally israel. the prime minister rishi sunak gave his reaction to the strike. we are concerned and would urge iran to continue to de—escalate tensions in the region. we absolutely condemn what has happened over the past couple of days. my thoughts are with all of those impacted, those who have lost their lives, their families, and those that are injured. we stand resolutely with our allies to bring stability and peace to the region, and that is what we will continue to work towards. joining me now is our chief international correspondent lyse doucet. lyse, president biden is between a rock and a hard place here. under pressure to respond but wa

in northern jordan, on the border with syria. is there a small part of syria, there is the american tanfbase, which was created by the americans in the 16th year already on the territory of syria, actually there were also some difficulties there, so the americans are unlikely to engage in any direct strikes on iran, even i would not at all ruled it out, but rather there will be some here, perhaps in coordination with israel's further attack on damascus, on the islamic revolution guards corps and on other pro-iranian forces, perhaps variations, it's just that biden also has a not very good fork here, if he does not react in any way to what has already happened, by the way, we remember american losses after the iraqi invasion, then various terrorist actions, then the war with edil, where iranian proxies fought against the americans and various other factions there, so now, if biden actually refuses any such until... a demonstrative, tangible blow, then the pro-trump republican camp will say: well, look what biden is doing, that is, they are lowering america further to nowhere, if biden doe

if it took place at al—tanf, which is the base on the syrian side, it is not the first time that basetacked. it's a kind of secretive facility where the americans have been operating with a couple of hundred troops in recent years. it's been there since 2016. you know, it has been hit before. it's a place that the americans used for training, syrian opposition for mounting counterterrorist operations. it was established at the height of the campaign against islamic state, you know, more than ten... or ten years ago or a bit less than ten years ago. and so it has been a target. it is well defended. it is in the middle of nowhere. i mean, it's in the middle of the desert. so not not an easy place to to attack on the ground. but we've seen throughout this whole recent period the use of drones and ballistic missiles, sometimes with devastating effects. and it does seem as though this was a drone. president biden vowing retaliation. so i suppose the big question is, in what form would that come? well, i mean, that's already happening. the americans — and indeed the israelis — have mounted

here now in the transition period, is will. it’s either there or it’s not, but as for this base from tanfon the butt, right, but behind this pimple is jordan, i thought, then the pimple is butt, yes, then, then pimple, yes, jordan, this is the place, this is the most painful place for americans to... achieve a just and lasting peace on in the middle east, firstly, all territories occupied by israel since 1967 must be returned to the arabs. secondly, the arab people of palestine must have the right to self-determination and the creation of their own independent state. thirdly, the eastern part of jerusalem must be returned to the arabs and believers throughout jerusalem must be provided with free access to the shrines of all three religions. fourth, all states in this region must have the right to... and look, what was laid down during soviet diplomacy remains the position of the soviet union is still relevant today, the arab world respects us for this, and now i would like to move on from this, you already mentioned, that is, right not long before his death, 2 months, 2 months, he died on

administration department of health and human services has done a proposed rule that would prohibit tanffor going to pregnancy care centers. so there was a bill that was voted on yesterday in the house, and we're going to ask marchers to reach out to their senators today to allow that government funding to go to these wonderful pregnancy care centers. >> carley: just to paint a picture in a couple hours, there is going to be 50,000 people at the march for life rally and 100,000 people are expected to march from the national mall to the supreme court where you guys will be celebrating the overturning of roe v. wade. so, steve, ainsley, brian, lawrence, today is a celebration of life, of family, of joy, of redemption and hope and 100,000 people strong all marching for that very cause. the cause life. what greater thing to celebrate. right? guys, over to you. >> steve: all right, carley. thank you very much. thanks to carley and jean and jean marie. all right, still ahead on this friday, "fox & friends" exclusive, daniel penny's attorney going to join us on the marine veteran's legal strate

since october 7th, iranian-based proxies and surrogates have attacked american bases al-assad, al-tanf had to engage a whole international coalition to protect shipping in the red sea, where about 15% of the world's commerce flows through the red sea, ultimately flowing through the suez canal. the u.s. is in this fights alongside its ally, israel, to prevent iran and its surrogates and proxies from triggering a wider war. >> the united states is, alongside its ally, israel. there is a report in the new york times about the tense conversations that have been had between secretary blinken and israeli prime minister, netanyahu, the united states is alongside but are they working to gather? if you read the new york times report, blinken goes in there with specific asks and requests, and the prime minister basically says, forget about it. >> i think that's par for the course. i have been involved in many conversations that close allies and partners, whether in europe or the indo-pacific, where the middle east. with the most part, you have strong alignment. we, the united states, of providin

was a us base called tower 22, which is just across the border from the much larger us base at al—tanf course, of the main headline there, which is that three american soldiers have been killed in a drone attack injordan and 3a others injured after an overnight attack on a us outpost near the border with syria. we are hearing president biden was believed early morning in washington, dc on that and has vowed reprisals. we will bring you all developments on the story as and when they come in, and it is a moving story at the moment. let's move to gaza, but stay in the region, of course. the israeli military is pressing ahead with its operation in the south. palestinians continue to stream out of high newness, where the israeli army says it is involved in intense fighting. —— khan younis. multiple israeli air strikes have been reported there. the hamas—run health ministry says 165 palestinians have been killed in the past 2a hours, taking the total number killed since the start of the war to more than 26,400. meanwhile, diplomatic efforts to free more than 130 hostages still held by hamas
