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 the roads used for transporting goods from the eastast of syria, including india, pakistan, afghanistan, and most importantly china. for centuries, the chinese would use what's called the silk road to do trade with... the silk road passes through syria and leads to the mediterranean sea and the black sea. this way people in the east could reach the ports of europe and africa in the mediterranean for trade. in fact, compared to shipping by sea, the road can get our good several times faster and cheaper to 22. with 100 ports. nowadays, the silk road is not what it used to be in the past, and much of it is destroyed or replaced. of course, the chinese, in cooperation with many other asian countries like iran, intend to revive the silk road. this is decision which is not secret, as they have talked about it openly on many occasions. till then, the road linking baghdad to damascus and from there to the mediterranean coast is still considered as the silk road. now the americans have established bases in tanth right on the main baghdad damasc

for supplies american troops in northeast syria officially, according to the ministry of defense, 900 people, that is, if they leave iraq, then in the north-easthelp, means the kurds, like these troops, and so on and so forth, and this also coincided with all these events, the iraqi government in the person of the prime minister of iraq, and this man is tough... on iran, because he put power, excuse the perhaps apt terminology, with parties and movements oriented by the so-called bloc of swedish parties towards iran, they have a parliamentary republic, that means mohammed , means sudan, yes, they say, get out of here , let the commission go, but it will be a slap, a slap, the american conclusions from afghanistan, a slap in the face, again for biden in the canon of these very elections, you can imagine that trump will shout, they left afghanistan, by the way . well, excuse me, it means that direct military clashes are already taking place in iraq, because when the americans enter into hostilities, launch an air strike against khashabi, and what is khashabi, many people think that it is just some kind of illegal formation, but no, the most inte

east of the al-burj camp in the center of the gaza strip with rpg bullets . the iraqi islamic resistance declared a military base the american has targeted atanf in the south-east of syria and shadadi in the north-west of syria. on friday, this iraqi group had announced that in continuation of its approach to confront the american occupying forces, as well as in response to the attacks of the zionist regime on the people of gaza and washington's support for the crimes of tel aviv, the fighters of the islamic resistance of iraq used a drone to the american base in harir in northern iraq. have attacked anonymous targeted two oil tankers belonging to the zionist regime in the west and northwest of maldives and caused heavy damage to them. these two tankers are on schedule they had to cross the babolmandb strait and the red sea. no one has claimed responsibility for this attack, but yemen has previously threatened to target ships and tankers belonging to this regime in the red sea until the end of the zionist regime's invasion of the gaza strip , however, these two tankers are more than 2,000 kilometers away from bab al-mandeb was targeted and they had to change their route

the american troops should pull out from east of syria and that way that it seems to be safe. the whole region would be safe and no one, no soldiers, nothing american, and no other soldiers or any ships indebted, see, or anyone who can get injured. but by supporting the support of israel by the united states and by the administration and the state department of blinking and so backed up by the congress and 8 back in the end, this region is going towards more attention and more wars. and the it said, going to start getting us, it'd be stable because both sides are increasing dimension. yeah, steven, what's behind the timing of this attack where we're almost 4 months now into the conflicts in gods. and this is the 1st deadly attack on american forces in the middle east since october 7th, but not including those 2 navy seals who went missing during an operation to seize a rainy and made weapons off the coast of somalia. so is it because of increasing tensions now? uh yes, unfortunately, the reason today after $114.00 days a $115.00 days, uh, on the were on the genocide on goes up

not everything is simple, but they are doing this and then they will gain access to the north-east of syriad, another proxy, that is it's time to liberate the middle east texas, and in the middle east there is such a perestroika going on, you know, who is doing what, where to gain a foothold and what can be done on their own, but as for pakistan, iran, well, they have one enemy, it’s called belarusian separatism. as for the exchange of pleasantries between pakistan and iran, belushian separatism is not a new topic; it has caused a lot of trouble for the iranians and pakistanis, and indeed there is quite a lot of china there too. gas sector, having failed, therefore, not to free the hostages, not to defeat hamas, to destroy which without achieving any goals in hamas, which means that israel, well, of course, with the assistance of the cia, took up terrorism, in principle, israel has always been doing this, so here, as if i have no evidence, but it’s difficult to refute, we all know that when israel needs to eliminate some -something of a nuclear physicist, he does it perfectly. well, and so

at the beginning of the 20th century, the levant was one of the most important regions of the middle east. syria was part of the ottoman empire in 1516 and until the end of the world war. first, in 1918, it remained a part of ottoman empire. palestine, which was a province in the south of the levant, was an active part of it was the ottoman world. in commercial centers of palestine , including quds, jaffa and haifa, the trade market was prosperous. palestine had its own nation, a lively, active, intelligent nation. thinking and very creative. but world war i changed everything. in november 1918, the allies including britain, france, italy and japan defeated the allies. allies included germany, austria, hungary, bulgaria and most importantly, the ottoman empire. britain and france conspired against china. to divide the dinner area in a way that best benefits them. but they could not agree on the future of palestine. as a result, the league of nations temporarily placed palestine under british rule or trusteeship. some christian and jewish zionist writers described palestine as a land without a na

military bases in syria have once again come under attack by resistance forces, the islamic resistance in iraq said it launched two drone strikes at us bases in the northeastern and east parts of syria. the group also claimed responsibility for rocket attack on another us base in northern alasaka province. the islamic resistance in iraq has carried out number of such strikes in response to the us support for the israeli genocide in gaza. more rallies have been held worldwide in solidarity with palestinians in gaza with protesters calling for a cease fire. thousands rallied to the us capital. urging president joe biden to call for sease fire. in the italian city of naples, 5,00 symbolic tombstones were laid out to remember the palestinians killed in the conflict. protesters called for immediate end to israel's bombardment of gaza. hundreds of iraqies took to the streets of baghdad, demanding a ceasefire while waving palestine and resistance movement's flags. also, tens of thousands gathered in central london in front of the parliament, voicing their support for the people in gaza. "the israeli regime's genocidal war in gaza is ongoing, so is the public campaign to try and stop

point of view, this attack is completely justified, because the united states of america has established bases in syria and eastthe euphrates without the permission of the official and legal government of syria, which is recognized by the united nations, and is willing to leave them. also, in lebanon, we saw that the party allah carried out large-scale attacks on the zionist lands yesterday, and the resistance is increasing its pressure on the zionist regime in order to prevent the continuation of its crimes, but the interesting thing here is that the zionists, despite suffering very severe blows, have reacted widely. they don't attack lebanon because they know that lebanon is different from qadha and hezbollah's capabilities are not at all comparable to noor gaza. by expanding the war to lebanon, this regime has committed a major suicide, so i have to express my assessment that the zionist regime after 3 months the war has not achieved anything and the continuation of the war is detrimental to the survival of this regime, but considering that mr. netanyahu is stuck in a political trap , he is trying to ensure

of the zionist regime in gaza . the iraqi islamic resistance has so far targeted american bases in the east and northeast of syria and in the west and north of iraq dozens of times with drone and rocket attacks. placed. supporters of palestine in the united states condemned the white house's support for the crimes of the zionist regime in gaza by gathering in front of the headquarters of the public relations committee of the united states, israel and aipac in manhattan, new york. this massive rally, with the intervention of the police , emphasized their support for the oppressed palestinian nation. a similar demonstration was held in bahrain. the people of bahrain shouted in their march in support of an immediate ceasefire in gaza. ali saut al-arbi j. sout al-arbi g. anti-club al-ai anti-club al-ai. the people are strong. the people are strong. al-hal in al-baduqiyah al-banduqiyya al-halal al-banduqiyah al-halqa demonstrations of supporters of palestine in nairobi, the capital of kenya , were also suppressed by the police. demonstrations were held near the german embassy. demonstrators condemned the west's support fo

try to push the united states out of the middle east. out of iraq and syria. iraq is critically important to them. second, to oppose where they can anything remotely resembling a u.s. dominated quote unquote world order. here they align with both china in many respects. and with putin's russia. it is a critical opportunity for them to flex their muscles. show their influence. they are demonstrating a missile technology. the iranians in so many respects appear to be. they are prepared to fight the israelis and the americans not to the last iranian. to the last houthi. to the last lebanese and iraqi and syrian. so far, they have been untouched. >> and yet, we do have israel hitting back. israel has not taken responsibility for the air strike in syria. we shouldn't expect it to. the assassinations are not new. but how risky are they in this environment? >> as long as the israeli gaza war goes on, you have the pretext and justification for the iranians to use their proxies. i don't think we are on the cusp of a regional war. we are not there yet. but again. there

as i look to the north, i see the fertile plains of syria and lebanon, in the east, the vast and b. valleys of the tigres and euphrades and in the west the land of the egyptians. these were the words spoken by manakam begin, the former prime minister of israel. however, his words were in contradiction with the previous discourse of the zinists. previously, the zianis spoke of exile. cost and oppression, but after formation of israel, their language and speech changed, they utilized a new terminology that reflected a dangerous ideology, the greater israel, to them, the establishment of the zionist regime on palestinian land was just the beginning of a larger plan, therefore, guurion claimed this map is not our country's map. we have another map that future generations will implement. we must expand our territory from the nile to the euphrates. look at the american declaration of independence. this declaration makes no reference to any specific boundaries. we are not compelled to define our. borders, these were the words of former israeli war minister mose dan. he spoke of america, of

it was planned, there was two roots crossing syria, one of them is north, south, which is related to qatar as you just mentioned, and the other one was east uh... uh cross roads of railways and and so on. later an interview with russia today, the wikileaks founder showed cable that revealed saudi arabia and qatar were providing military assistance to anti-government-armed groups and even isis in syria. early 2014 email from hillary clinton, so not so long after she left secretary of state, to her campaign manager, john pedesta, uh, that email, it states uh, that isel, isis is uh funded by saudi arabia and qatar, the governments of saudi arabia and qatar, now this is... the i actually i think this is the most significant email in the whole collection uh and perhaps because saudi and qatari money is spread um all over the place including including into many media institutions under hillary clinton uh and our clinton emails uh reveal significant discussion about it um the largest ever arms deal in the world was made with saudi arabia more than 80 billion. and of course the consequence of that is that this notorious terrorist group called isi

if they are supported by the countries of the region, of course, the united states and their accomplices will have to leave the middle east, from syria lebanon, iraq. therefore, the vile murder of general sulaymaniyah, committed under the orders of the president of the united states, this is a sign of the weakness and infirmity of this country. ali shirazi, iranian supreme leader ayatala ali khaminya's representative in the corps. in islam, the death of a righteous man is considered the highest reward for the sacred struggle in the name of faith and his people, but mr. sharazi could not come to terms with the loss of his closest friend even a year later. we have heard more than once from both the spiritual leaders and the political leaders of the country that iran will definitely take revenge for the death of general sulaymaniyah. how do you interpret? general soleimani has repeated more than once: my paradise is a battlefield. all this year, the iranians broadcast to the whole world that they will continue to wage the battle that sulaymaniyah started. one of the symbols of this struggle was the image of general soleimani’s hand with

they were supported by the countries of the region, of course, the united states and their accomplices would have to leave the middle east, from syriaeral soleimani, carried out under the orders of the president of the united states, is a sign of the weakness and infirmity of this country. ali shirazi, iranian supreme leader ayatala ali khaminiya's representative in the islamic revolutionary guard corps. he was a close friend of the general soleimani since the iran-iraq war. commanding. will come to kill your loved one in your family, will you remain indifferent to this issue, or will you react, commander soleimani was dear to us, our enemy came and killed this dear person, we express our anger, because if we remain silent in response to actions of the enemy, he will continue this way. they will continue to fight the battle they started in sulaymaniyah . one of the symbols of this struggle was the image of the hand of general soleimani with his personal ring, the very one by which he identified on the day of the murder at baghdad airport. in the capital region this night the temperature dropped to -30. it is now colder in moscow and

, just as their invasion of syria led to the creation of the nusra jabhat, which is now called and we know, for example, that in syria in... the united states in the middle east, they , you know, they tell everyone that we ourselves will deal with the same palestinian-israeli conflict, they stopped the activities of the quartet , international mediators, took everything into account... including the issues of border delimitation, unblocking trade transport routes, and the signing of a peace treaty, appropriate structures were created at the level of deputy prime ministers of the three countries, which deal with the economic side of the issue. lately we have seen how, after reaching all these agreements, our western colleagues. recognizes the territorial integrity of azerbaijan within the 1991 borders, which means that the nagorno-karabakh the autonomous region, as karabakh was then called, is an integral part of azerbaijan. this came as a surprise to us , because before that, various options for a final solution to the problem of the status of karabakh were discussed, but the prime minister of armenia did it on his own, since then, in general , the question o

have known around a professor of international politics of the middle east at city university of london. i'm sorry, we have air strikes, interact, syria, which we just mentioned, but also lebanon. and yemen recently, is there a risk of an original war? do you think? as i think there is certainly a risk for regional at this point where we're seeing that most of the players involved in ron is rob united states, or runs proxies. who's been around the house, these are trying to keep the conflict underneath the threshold, full blown. however, if we look at the trajectory over the last month, we've seen that the conflict has each closer to a regional been backing away from it. so we're not there yet. but the dangers considerable and there's a been a split as you know, better than i between israel, united states, on the future of guys and the 2 state solution with joe biden. and premonition didn't. yeah. who not seeing right at all? is that disagreement feeding into the overall regional tension somehow? i'm not sure which speeding into the regional tension at the moment, but certainly it is a major flash point between the united states and i

s. troops stationed in syria and iraq have faced dozens of attacks by table and allied fighters since the start of the israel, him us war in october. as i asked the middle east expert christian hilbert, if this strikes in syria and iraq or signaling the start of a wider regional conflict, as many have feared. well actually we are seeing that this war and gaza has been spinning over as it is an old conflict that has been going on for the case between is what you ended so called excess of resistance on one side and iran. and it's so cold, excess of resistance on one side and is red and the you as on the other side. so what has happened after october 7th, is that as how must considers itself to be a member of this excess of resistance. every other militia would jump in, trying to help and step up pressure and is why you. so this is what has been happening in southern they've been known by his paula. we have seen this with a who see emily says that are attacking naval ships in the red sea. and we have been seeing this looking at the uranium back, the leases and iraq and syria that have been attacking u. s. troops in north, on iraq and ne, syria, and has tried to

day of gaza this week on the mid east stream. 10 years of chaos and war in syria, the ruins left in syriao benefits from the continuation of this war? what is the view of the west, particularly america towards war in syria and the support of many countries for creating chaos in syria? why syria, a different narrative? one you're watching, i'm your host. rest of your headlines, over dozen palestinians are killed in new israeli attacks on gaza where the death tool has already passed 24,600. mexico and chile refer israel's war on gaza. to the icc over escalating violence against palestinian civilians. yemany army says is targeted an american ship in the gulf of aiden with appropriate enable missiles and response to us lead air strikes on the country.

since the beginning of the crisis in the middle east, american bases in iraq and syria have already beenttacked 165 times. destroyed part of a residential building in rotterdam, the glass was broken by the blast wave, at least 15 cars parked nearby overturned, the fire spread to neighboring building. according to preliminary information, the cause of the explosions was a gas leak. firefighters and investigative agencies are on the scene. and now economic news. maria, within the framework of brix, russia is discussing the integration of payment infrastructures, so the central bank reported how much financial transfer our system has. messages from foreign participants. tatyana: 159 from 20 countries, more about this a little later, but for now let’s move on to other statements by the head of the central bank. a global recession has been avoided; global economic growth is slowing, but the likelihood of a hard landing has decreased. this assessment was given by the chairman of the bank of russia ilvera nabeulina in an interview with riya novosti. according to her, many expect leading central

in the northeast of syria, as well as the ashhadadi base in the east of this country, the target of a rocket attack and the drone is placed. these attacks were carried out this afternoon, but since this morning, the islamic resistance of iraq had targeted the american bases of ain al-asad and harir in iraq, as well as the bases of al-khadra al-shadadi, al-ramilan and al-malikiyeh in the depth of syrian territory. egypt refused to participate in the american coalition in the red sea. i24 channel of the zionist regime revealed: a delegation from the ministry of foreign affairs of the zionist regime traveled to cairo last week to investigate egypt's joining this coalition. but egypt has opposed. the us department of defense recently announced that in response to the attacks of yemeni forces on the huge ships of israel in the red sea have formed a coalition of 20 countries , but about half. some of these countries have not yet officially announced their membership in this coalition, and some of them limited themselves to sending a few naval officers . france, italy and spain recently with

continued news american bases continue to be the target of resistance attacks on the malikiya base in northeastern syria as well the shidadi base in the east of this country is the target of the attack. roxy and pehbadi are located. these attacks were carried out this afternoon, but since this morning, the islamic resistance of iraq had targeted the american bases of ain al-assad and harir in iraq, as well as the bases of khazra, shaddadi, remilan and malikiyeh in the depth of syrian territory. egypt refused to join the american coalition in the red sea. participate channel e24 of the zionist regime revealed. a delegation from the ministry of foreign affairs of the zionist regime has opposed to visit egypt last week to examine egypt's joining this coalition. department of defense america recently announced that it formed a coalition of 20 countries in response to the attacks of yemeni forces on ships bound for israel in the red sea , but about half of these countries are still not members of this coalition. because of the unlimited us support for israel's war against gaza , no country seems willing to participate in this military adventure

of iraq or what the takfiris are doing in syria. "we've spent trillions of dollars in the middle east, trillions, we shouldn't have ever, ever, ever goneo iraq, i said it from the beginning. in many respects, you know, they honor president obama, isis is honoring." president obama, he is the founder of isis, he's the founder of isis, okay, he's the founder, he founded isis, and i would say the co-founder would be crooked hillary clinton , this is the truth that even if trump he didn't listen to election and clinton jokes , it wasn't hard to understand. the muslims of the region, who were supposed to unite for the liberation of palestine , died. they kill each other with their own hands and destroy their cities. in this way , the occupied territories have become a more common place for the zionists, and it is possible to sell a large amount of weapons to the countries involved in the region, and for several years. future control of muslim energy resources caught in the war. it remains in the hands of american and european multinational companies. so it is natural that if the people of the region want to change the situation, america wil
