6 30 p. M. In irans capital, tehran. This is press tv news. Thanks for joining us. The scenes of horrific killing of palestinians have become common ever since the israel regime launched this genocidal war in the gaza strip. The Regime Forces have massacred scores more gazans were waiting for humanitarian aid in gaza city. According to the Palestinian Health ministry. 104 people were killed after israeli snipers shot directly at a crowd waiting for aid in the early morning, hundreds of more sustained injuries. The dead and wounded have been taken to alshifah and kamalad awwan hospitals. The palestinian for ministry has condemned the attack saying that it was a cold blooded massacre. Palestinian Resistance Movements hamas and the Islamic Jihad have also censured the massacre of gazans. Palestinians are already struggling with shortages of food as the Israeli Regime is using starvation as a weapon against. Shortages have caused the surge and malnutrition among children with the un warning of alumen famon. This really genocide has so far killed over 30,100 gazons. The us managed israely genocidal war continues to take innocent lives and to leave a trail of destruction in the gaza strip. Israels bombing and shelling campaign since october the 7th has turned a large part of gaza into rubble. Spokesman for the Gaza Health Ministry gives details about the catastrophic situation in the besieg territory estimated casualties of the Israeli Aggression stand that approximately 3000 martters and over 70,500 injuries. This points to a systematic policy by Israeli Occupation of committing genocide in the gaza strip. Further more this aligns with reports indicating that disappearance of 10,000 individuals. 70 of these marters are children and women in. Addition to nearly 10 of the marters being elderly, therefore the Israeli Occupation is carrying out a clear process of executing families. There are thousands of families that have been completely annihilated. They are 30,000 marters. I dont know what the israelis want from us and why they killed this number. It is a genocide, a genocide of the palestinian people. This is what i see, a genocide, who bombs a tower on civilian resid . Weve never witnessed such number before, im 52 years old and ive lived through many wars, including the 82 war which we heard about when we were young as well as the first and second interfasas, the number of 3000 murders has never been reached in such a short period, four months, five months, the intefaza lasted for years, yet this number wasnt reached, nor was number of injuries, the goal here is killing, not just displacement, but murder and extermination. This has become a genocide unlike anything weve ever seen, everyone is suffering inside these towns, were dying slowly in addition to high cost of living and the people enduring pain, we are suffering greatly, we have been displaced about 100 times. Israel bombings of the gaza strip and the obstacles aid delivery have left palestinians without food and other essentials. The un has also warned that a quarter of gazas population is just. One step away from famon, the lack of food is forced a displaced family eat cactus leaves in order to survive. Lets take a listen to the heroing narratives. Today we are living in famon, we have exhausted everything. There is nothing left eat, we used to eat a plant called mallow. It no longer exists, they are used to be carrot and that is gone, there is nothing left in the markets, so we resorted. To the last option, the cactus. We eat cactus even with it sorns. We even feed the Young Children cactus. A little girl is eating cactus instead of milk instead of meat. Instead of eggs, today we can still find cactus, in a week the cactus will no longer be available and we will leave on nothing, we will become dead, i in approximately one month and i have a photo, have lost some 30 kilograms this month, one month, i have lost 30 kilograms, why . Because there is no food, this is our food now in the northern gaza strip, there is nothing else, everything is gone. there is nothing left, theres nothing. I have newborn babies, what should i feed them . They have become anemic, they have contracted due to lack of food and nutrition, so now we are eating cactus, i also ate from it, i ate cactus, i had cactus for lunch, we thank god there is nothing left for us eat, palestinian fighters keep putting stuff resistance to Israeli Forces in gaza as fighting. The ground rages on, the military wing of the Hamas Resistance Movement says that is targeted group of israely solders in gaza city with morters.

Israel has so far confirmed the killing of 243 of its troopers since the regime launched to Ground Invasion of gaza in late october. Palestinian groups say that the regime is intentionally hiding the real number of casualties among its forces in order to avoid the israely public anger.

This is my land and my country. It is not only the 1948 or 1967 borders from the sea to the river. I am not ready to let go of a centimeter. Israel is here like any for by the support of the europe, by the support of the united states, thats why they separate, the land, well i was at the babel shams protest last week and i myself had a my head banged against a bus by soldier. illegally on illegal stolen land and they are arresting us, the palestinians. This is historical palestine. Welcome back to the news here on press tv. Iran has launched yet another home grown satellite as the country aims to bridge the gap with other nations in the race for space dominance. Prazona ashujian. Reports, the new satellite pars one aboard sayos launch vehicle was blasted off from a Russian Space base and successfully put into orbit 500 kilometers above earth. The imaging and a Research Satellite will provide set of Remote Sensing data that can be used in various fields including land, forest, water. Monitoring and mining and Energy Transmission lines, the domestically made satellite ways nearly 150 kilograms and is capable to capture images of 95 of iranian territory, the pars one satellite is two way researching satellite built by the Iran Space Research Institute and has three types of applications for collecting data from the earth surface, the first payload of the color is. Spectrum with accuracy of 15 m, the second payload with accuracy of 150 meters for thermal imaging and a payload with 300 accuracy for imaging with short wave infrared spectrum. I hope that in the future i can play an influential role in irans Technological Developments. Pars one is designed and manufactured by experts and young scientists with the cooperation of knowledgebased companies. This is the second foreign launch of iranian satellite. Last year iran launched khayom satellite from a space launching pad in kazakhstan. Iran is among the worlds top 10 countries. Capable of developing and launching satellites. The latest launch is an important step forward in the countrys space program. Despite sanctions imposed by western countries in recent years, iran is excelling in wide range of Technological Developments including in the space sector. I see major achievement for iran. Lets bring in mohammed, hes an expert in. The most important satellite, the most important achievement is that this satellite is over 150 kilos, it was manufactured by domestic companies, and we launched it to the height of 500 kms and it was done by a russian carrier. Satellites in iran and its more applicable compareds and applied compared to other satellites uh the weight and the looks of this particular satellite launch was very different uh than the ones previous to it it seemed much heftier larger in bulk um tell us what uh differences it lied with the previous ones and the cooperation in this case that uh was done with russia. Speaking of khayam satellite, even though it had the same weight, but it was not designed by iran, it was khayam satellite was manufactured by russia, it was also launched by russia, but this satellite was manufactured by iran and it was launched by russia, and this is major. So far we did not have much interaction with other countries so this is major breakthrough and this launch indicated that by defining good interaction with neighboring and friendly countries we can have new breakthroughs and enter actually international. Interaction all right, very well, thank you very much for that, mohammed, expert in Aerospace Technology here in the studios, thank you for explaining this to us, thank you, well to further expand on this, our corresponding was present at Iran Space Research Institute, you just saw her report during the satellite launch from russian base, and she told us more about the countrys achievements in this field, actually this. Satellite is called pars one, its an imaging satellite, its a research one and uh actually um, its a Research Measurement satellite and which is designed and constructed as i mentioned by the young scientists and iranian scientists and this launch was announced uh by uh irans communication minister zarapur yesterday noting that uh this actually launch is in order to develop International Interactions and to develop the uh International Relations between the two countries between iran and uh russia and we know that this launch is uh happening uh uh despite the unilateral western sanctions and we know that this is not actually the first time that iran uh has uh done such thing and has launched a satellite uh more than 11 times this actually uh proud moment has happened and last month what i can tell about uh the history of these kind of activities that iran has last month, iran successfully put into orbit three homegrown satellites uh uh with a minimum altitude of 450 kilometers and maximum of 1,100 km above the earths uh surface and uh as i can see uh, people are still here and watching this uh proud moment and uh uh were all proud, podcast and journalist esha krishna swami joined us earlier from st. Petersburg with her take on the iranian satellite launch from a russian base. Ive been reading what western papers have been saying and they are saying that it expresses. Like concerns over irans ties with moscow etc, so they are definitely concerned about this because they want to have space hegemony or or be one of the only people who are capable of doing this, and when other countries do this, it insights fear, but for iran what it does is that because iran is victim of so much terrorism and sabotage, it can help them monitor this and put an. And to lot of these um issues where pipelines get sabotaged or get um blown up due to acts of terrorists, so for iran it is vital for their National Security interests and so i think that it is overall something iran needs um in order to confront the real threats to their nation. It says that iran is able to um defend itself very capably, top of that i think these sanctions forced iran into creating a selfsufficiency because they couldnt import parts that other nations could, and because of it they have to manufacture everything at home, and so i think it helped create a selfsufficiency that made iran ironically stronger if it werent for the strengtions.

Um, theres also a lot of talk around here about trying to instigate, for example, iranians not to turn out in large numbers, to reduce the voter turnout, because this would signif that people are not happy with whats going on, and i just think that this is message, for for iranians to be very cautious in. Internally to understand that there are different forces working towards destabilizing lot of things, but i just want to say that there are problems in every nations, Economic Issues are not limited to iran, they are a global problem at the moment, and i think internally iranian should remember that there is huge leadership that iran shows around the world in in issues of palestine, on morality on moral Politics Around the world, in science with the launch of for example the satellitees.
