One of the most horrific attacks a medical facility in recent history. Back in the year 2015, us warplanes heavily bombed a trauma hospital run by Doctors Without Borders in afghanistans Northern City of cunduz, killing 42 people. Our correspondent has more from kabul. This is what remained of the msf hospital in kundus after it was hit by a barage of us air strikes on october 3rd 2 2015 for nearly an hour the hospital was under fire as 211 shells rain down on the building, among the 42 victims were patients, caretakers and msf Staff Members who were providing Life Saving Services to the wounded and patients. The brittle attack on kundus hospital not only devastated our people at that time, but it still haunts our nation because it was attack of on innocent people, attack that burned our medical professionals. Most of the targeted patients were the victims of the us war. Our nation will never forget this war crime. Hospital was mistakenly struck. The us initially denied targeting the hospital, but later admitted that it was a grave and tragic mistake, independently and impartially. The msf denounced the attack as violation of international of such move, an impartial investigation and trial is the right of the victims of this horrific attack. Unfortunately, the previous government was controlled by the us, and the current one is not recognized, so the perpeterator. The kundus hospital attack have never been punished, the attack on the msf hospital was not an isolated incident. During its 20year occupation of afghanistan, the us carried out more than 13,000 air strikes across the country. The us Drone Campaign alone claimed the lives of more than 4,000 people, many of them women and children. Afghan people have endured. Numerous atrocities committed by the us forces on their land. They say the us should be held accountable for their crimes in afghanistan. Rahmatlah bagban, press tv, kabul. U. S. House speaker Kevin Mccarthy has been austed in a historic vote triggered by a group of his fellow republicans. The group led by congressman matt gates of florida has been highly critical of micartys leadership ever since he was elected House Speaker in january. His officer has now planched congress into further chaos, just days after it averted a government shut down. A historic votes in the us house of representatives, the Lower Chamber of congress voted to remove Kevin Mccarty is speaker following motion pushed by his fellow republicans. On this vote, the yes are 2 16, the ns are 2 10, the. Resolution is adopted, without objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table, the office of speaker of the house of the United States house of representatives is hereby declared vacant. A group of hard right republicans let by congressman mads of florida pushed the motion late monday to vote on removing mccart. Gods and his allies have been critical of maccarty ever since it was chosen House Speaker in january. Thank you. Things escalated after mckartic reached a deal with democrats few days ago to avert a government shutdown. Mr. Speaker, my friend from oklahoma says that my colleagues and i who dont support Kevin Mccarthy would plunge the house in the country into chaos. Chaos is speaker mccarthy. Chaos is somebody who we cannot trust with their word. The one thing that the white house, house democrats, and many of us on the conservative side of the Republican Caucus would argue is that the thing we have in common, Kevin Mccarthy said something to all of us at one point or another that he didnt really mean and never intended to live up to, and mccarty responded this way in a press conference later on. You all know mad gates, you know it was personal, it had nothing to do about spending, it had nothing to do about everything he accused of he was doing, it all was about getting attention from you. The ausad speaker also criticized what he called the divide inconstitutional problem in congress. In todays world, if youre sitting in congress and you took a gamble to make sure government was still open, and eight people can throw you out a speaker, and the democrats they wanted to keep government open, i think you got a real divide, i think you got a real institutional problem. Has said he wont seek to reclaim his post as speaker. The Biden Administration has hoped that the house will find a replacement as soon as possible. Mccartneys alcer poses problems both for congress and for the government. Thats because november 17th is the next deadline to fund the government, or risk a federal shutdown, with the hard right republicans taking a job at the last deal between mccarty and the democrats. To keep the government go on, the next House Speaker would need to figure out how to keep the Party Colleagues happy, while at the same time prevent a government shut down. A washington correspondent Colin Cambell joined us earlier to give more details on the ouster of the us House Speaker. Well, we have to remember that mccarthy won his position, or now his former position by very. Slim margin, he was always going to be controlled by the most extreme members of his party, because one of the stipulations that was made for him to become speaker of the house was that only one member the house could uh vote in opposition or could call vote in opposition to his leadership, which is what happened with matt gates, who was part of what many consider to be the maga movement, the make America Great again movement, which has been. Uh fueled and supported by former president donald trump, so once he mccarthy made the deal with democrats to keep the government going for another 45 days, gates felt like he was overstepping his boundary and called a vote to remove him to vacate the office of speaker the house, which he did quite successfully in fact, so the ramifications here now is that the house will not be working for the next several days, it indicates broken government and the us, they plan to have uh vote next week as to who will replace mccarthy, some believe that steve scollice is the next person in line, other . People have talked about jim jordan, but it remains to be seen who will replace mccarthy. Runs National Health service bosses have for the first time said that the ongoing strike by doctors in england is causing significant disruption and risk the patients. We discussed the issue with a guest at the news review program. Lets take listen. Were watching press tvs news review where we look deeper into some of the top stories of the day on the segment of the program, britains National HealthService Leaders have expressed concerns over the ongoing strike action in england by Junior Doctors and consultants for the first time nhs bosses acknowledged that the 72hour joint walkout is causing significant disruption and risk to patients. They highlighted the challenges in managing patients who require time sensitive. Urgent treatment saying the strike brings all routine care to near standstill. Hospitals also reported the cancellation of treatments and appointments for the second or third time. The industrial action owners Christmas Day cover began on monday over pay. This is the second strike action by doctors and over uh the past two weeks. On tuesday radiographers also joined them and walked out of jobs for a day. Meanwile members of the British Medical Association are taking part in rally in manchester urging. Fair pay deal, joining us on this edition of the news review, we have um prestives very own side putozos joining us from the british capital london, also we have nhs campaigner bob gill whos joining us uh from uh london as well, lets start off with uh said in the british capital, said uh nhs bosses have acknowledged this 72 hour joint walkout. Causing significant disruption, this industrial action, which has come to be known as Christmas Day cover, it seems to feel a little different this time, doesnt it . It certainly does, bardia, and these warnings have been around for a long time since these strikes began 10 months ago and an extraordinary that were still talking about them without solution to the problem uh anywhere in sight anytime soon, and doctors such as um dr. Bob gail have been also warning about shortcome. And um other problems with the National Health service for years now um we have seen um up to million cancellations of appointments and surgeries as as a result um over the past 10 months um the waiting list of course has gone up as well the governments of course has been trying to blame all of this on the strikes uh whereas uh it is Public Knowledge that even before the. Pandemic, the uh nhs waiting list had risen to 7. 2 million, and over the past uh few years since, um, it has gone up to 7. 7 million. One of the promises of the Prime Minister rushinak has been to um have inflation uh, excuse me, um, nhs waiting lists, that hasnt happened, even as early as this morning, him and his uh, secretary of health, Steve Barkley in manchester, where the tory. Party annual conference is ongoing have been blaming the doctors uh for the rise in the number of people having to wait for um surgeries uh examples of people um suffering as a result um are plenty of one person talking to the media here saying that she was suffering from gold bladder stones that she was throwing up left right and center and that she eventually had to take out a loan to carry out um some kind of surgery or keyhole surgery. Perhaps on uh to take out her gold bladder stones because she was told by the nhs that they had already cancelled so many appointments that hers would probably be one and not get her surgery done anytime soon, shed probably have to wait year for that to happen, something she didnt want to do, and that is the state of the nhs, and im sure uh, dr. Bob giil can fill us in on that, it is alleged that it is push, attempt by the conservative government. To push the nhs to the brink where it seems to have managed um and turn it into this sappar Healthcare System for everybody else whereas people with money. Can uh access better healthcare in the private sector. Lets cross over to uh dr. Bob gill. Dr. Gill give us your interpretation on uh the recent uh strikes by medical workers and of course uh your perspective on the effect that this recent 72hour joint strike has had so far. Thank you. Yes, so strike action is last resort. The government have refused to come to the negotiating. To to discuss a way out of and a way to avoid the strike action, the problem is we have a political elite which is across the political parties, they are hell bent on privatizing the nhs, and in order to privatize the nhs, you have to dismantle the Public Health provision, and that includes driving down staff wages, creating a workforce crisis in terms of retention and recruitment. And also driving up waiting list, so so these three things actually suit the political agenda, that might sound perverse, but the preventable harm and death of patients is the lubricant required to build a burgining private sector within the uk, so this is all avoidable, the government is interested in driving up cost, either through taxation and additional payment if you go privately and driving down. Standards, so there is a parallel process in this country of replacing qualified doctors and nurses with assistance, so this is a preplanned strategy of introducing deskilling and task shifting, these are important tactics from the private sector to want to run a Health Service for profit, not high quality, not with a wellmotivated and satisfied workforce. And driving standards of provision down, so this is whats going on, that is the context within which these strikes are taking part, and you, the doctors, the joint action, i welcome the joint action, but what i do not receiveed too kindly is the refusal of the unions to paint the broader picture of the assault on Public Health careare provision, the strike action and the weight suppression is part of. This drive to privatize the nhs which the public need to know and the government and the media arent telling them. All right, thanks lot, thats all the time we have for this segment the program. Press tvs are joining us from london and thanks to dr. Bob giil joining us also from the british capital. With that it brings us to an end here on this edition of the news review here on press tv, but stick around theres play more to come as well. Bye for now. The Palestinian IslamicJihad Movement is holding live fire military drills in gaza. The advanced maneuvers include firing missiles toward the sea and simulating attacks against the Israeli Regimes military sites. Lets bring in a corresponder ashraf shanin live from gaza who joins us to tell us more about these drills. Well tell us some of the technicalities or the specs behind these drills uh that uh would obviously show uh the uh strength of the. Began military maneuvers today by firing rockets towards the mediterranian as part of their preparedness for any future attack from the Israeli Regime and al also as part of their preparations and marking the. 36th anniversary of the outset the islamic uh Jihad Movement, as i said the the fire rockets towards the mediterranean, they also simulated uh storming Israeli Military posts, attacking tanks and attacking Israeli Regime personnel and also simulating the the capturing of israeli soldiers. The uh the uh the drills are on the way as we speak right now uh and we only allowed to reach uh this area but in the uh coming in about half an hour or an hour they gonna have uh dozens of trucks and vehicles loaded with uh with with rockets and a brand new drones that they have introduced to their to their uh military uh ranks including the sayyad drone and also the hudood drone more details will come up in the in the next hour or so as uh the drills continues, the drills continue and and more uh military personnel come to this area in the south of of gaza city. Lets not forget that back in in may the Israeli Regime used drones to assassinate top commanders from the Islamic Jihads military wing. They killed four of them, along with their families and also dozens of innocent civilians. Uh in the ghaza trip cover um youve covered these uh types of drills over the years uh do these drills mean that uh they are getting prepared uh for an offensive or do they mean that they are getting prepared in uh prepared in case israel attacks them um in terms of uh the reason behind the drills or is it just something that they decided to do . Well the the the Islamic Jihad and as well as hamas through the years in their drills, they talk about the the drills are mainly offensive, they say they uh they are preparing for for any israeli aggression, but when you watch the these drills you can tell they are preparing to to wage a war, maybe similar to the one back in may 2021, when hamass military wing, the ezil qassam brigades launch the war against the Israeli Regime by firing wrong rage rockets towards al quds and attacking Israeli Military installations there. Thank you very much for that. Ashandar live from the gaza strip. We appreciated ashraf. Mumigon, russia says it has intercepted and shot down 31 drones launched by ukraine over the regions bordering ukraine. Russias Defense Ministry said the drones were spotted and intercepted over the regions of belgrad, ryansk and kersk. The ministry added that russian jets also averted a ukrainian attempt to penetrate into the krimia region. By assay. There were no immediate reports of potential casualties or damage from ukraines latest aerial and naval strikes. Meanwhile, the governor of russias Southern Region of briansk reported that Ukrainian Forces fired cluster munitions but caused no casualties or damage. Ukraine has stepped up crossborder drown attacks since the country launch is counter offensive early june. Russia says it has repelled most of the attacks downplaying their significance. Germanys military assistance to ukraine under growing criticism, protesters have demonstrated in a public dispate of discontempt with the arms supplies to kiev. The rallies were held in the cities of berlin and munich. The demonstrator said germanys decision to send more weaponry to ukraine risks escalation of the conflict with russia. Some protesters demanded that germany pulled out of the nato military alliance. Some said the us is benefiting from germanys intervention in the russiaukraine war. Im mainly concerned with crisis intervention and resolving this Armed Conflict on the one hand, and the other hand, of course, there are trends in the militarization of germany, after all, from a purely political point of view, germany is right in the middle, and america is shamelessly taking advantage of. Had to using citizens through media policy to perhaps ultimately use them for their own goals and ukrainian citizens were also exploited. Germany is among western countries that are provided ukraine with a wide range of weapons since the war erupted in february 2022. Russia has repeatedly said the influx of western arms will only prolong the war and add to the suffering of ukrainians. Moscow has also warned the west that such arms transfers risk a triggering. A direct conflict with nato, theres a consensus among the otherwise multiply divided opposition, that weapons to ukraine are detrimental to peace in europe, that weapons to ukraine in fact fosters war and cannot help to end it, and that logic is very simple and very clear and it applies to huge part of the population, which is in fact a little tired of demonstrating through the last three years, time and again, day and again in so many cities, so october 3rd, National German day was a day of rallying again also in this regard, and let me give you the figures, the 8. 36 billion euros german weapons. Exports to ukraine last year and 8. 76 this year alone, so we have raised sharply and one third of our weapons exports go to ukraine. Nowadays and thats a very, very bad development. And that is for this additional world news. Thanks for being with us, in just few minutes time, ill be back with a review of the top stories, this bye bye for now. As predicted riyad under pressure from washington may accept flimsy zionist american promises so that the wagon will set off towards what netanyahu called the new middle east that zionists like deceased shimon perez had always dreamed of. There is no arab world nor a palestinian cause in the map that netanyahu heralds rather there is a Regional Power solarly zionist israel support by the United States of america that plunders from arabs oil money to establish its superiority. Alas, everything is now out in the open. Normalizing relations between saudi arabia and the israeli entity will lead to the palestinians losing a friend who was only ashamed to deal with the zionists in public, and now has the chance to do it openly. Saudi arabia embraces zionists this week on the mediast stream. The us said it was going to reconstruct afghanistan and restore security to the country, but after two decades, wherever you look in the country, you only see death and destruction. Many us officials have taken. The lid off the widespread corruption under the guise of reconstruction projects, follow the details in this documentary. The iranian army has used Artificial Intelligence for suicide trounds to hit targets on the second day of joint maneuvers by different branches of the armed forces.

Also the us House SpeakerKevin Mckarthy has criticized what he called a real divide, institutional problem in congress. Mckarthy was ousted in a historic vote triggered by his fellow republicans. They were critical of his leadership, especially after mccarthy reached a deal with democrats to avert a government shutdown
