Hello everyone, thank you for tuning in press tv, world news. Iran condemns in the strongest terms, latest instance of desecration of the holy quran in the netherlands. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson nasir kanani said the dutch government should understand its responsibility and prevent the repetition of such hateful acts under the guise of freedom of express. He described the creation of the quran as insult to religious values and sanctities of over two billion world muslims. His remarks came after a dutch citizen who heads an islamophobic group insulted the quran in front of embassies of several muslim countries at the hag. It followed similar instances in sweden and denmark in recent months. The sacriligious acts have triggered mass protest through the muslim world with governments warning against testing the patients of muslims. Iran has successfully launched a new satellite into orbit, amid strict sanctions imposed by western states and may aimed a crippling the Islamic Republic space program. Telecom minister has confirmed the neur 3 imaging satellite has been placed into an orbit of 450 kilometers above earth. Islamic revolution guard core has carried out the launch using homeeg grown satellite carrier the cassed Aerospace Division of the irgc launch is first iranian satellite, the nur one in april of 2020, the nur two in march of last year, now this, as washington has imposed strict sanctions on irans civilian space agency, starting back in 2019, allegging that its used to advance tehrans Ballistic Missile program. Iran has time and again denied seeking Nuclear Weapons stressing its space program, just like its Nuclear Program is purely for nonmilitary purposes. Our correspondent gisu mishani earlier joined us with more details on the launch of the neur three. This is a great achievement for iran considering the fact bad that iran is under harsh sanctions. So seeing the country thrive in so many fields and high tech fields in particular is actually great news for iranians and the entire iranian nation is happy today to hear about this. This is something. That always comes to mind whenever we witness some great achievement in iran, considering the fact that iran has been under us sanction since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution since 1979, so basically what im trying to say is that for iranians as a nation is very difficult to have access to anything, anything hightech. These sanctions are so harsh that in many cases they even include medicine and food, so the fact that you see iran achieving uh these heights in hightech fields, fields like aerospace, there are only a handful of countries who actually have the technology, who actually have conquered space, so uh and Something Interesting bad deal, you have to note that many of these countries have done so with the help of the pioneers, the countries like russia and uh the United States or western countries have helped them with that. But the thing about iran is that its own achievements, it has achieved this uh, with the help of its own scientist, that iran is standing its own two feet, and that is what makes this achievement even more important and even more significant. Now yemen, leader of the huthies, abdu malik al huthi said that the yemenes will never give in to the western. Germany and western dictates and we discuss his speech earlier in our news review program. Here it is. Tim now of for the news review of the this bulletin the leader of yemens unsolar movement has reiterated that his country will not accept any form of western hegemony. Abdul malik alhuthi urged the Saudiled Coalition to stop the aggression and crippling sage. He argued that the aggression meant to prevent the formation of an independent government in yemen that does not abide by foreign dictates. Houthi also warned of plots hashed by yemens enemies to divide the country. Meanwhile he reiterated yemens. Support for the palestinian resistance, condemning any form of normalization with the israeli regime. Abdul malik althi made the remarks in a speech on the occasion of the birth anniversary of islams prophet muhammad, that was marked by huge nationwide rallies in yemen. Joining us from asana. Is an activist and political commentator who also joins us from sana. Welcome to you both. You, first to you, that was huge turn out uh. It happened, um, it was quite incredible, actually when you take, when you take a look at the images that came through, tell us uh about that, and of course highlights that you deem important, hundreds of thousands of yemenes who took to the streets just here in the capital sana, and millions of yemenese who took to the streets in a number of provinces um to commemorate the birthday anniversary of prophet muhammad, um, the speech that was made today was very specific by the leader of the revolution sayid, he directed his talk to let the uh western powers know that yemen is in the process of forming an independent sovereign Yemeni Government that will not cater to any foreign influence in yemini land and thats the problem with western nations, they seem to have a problem with countries want to establish independence from western hegemany, and the military. Effort, the political effort, the revolutionary effort that this revolution from day one set out to accomplish is is to bring an end to saudi and us and western medaling in yemens internal affairs and the supporters of the event today, they expressed condemnation at the Saudi Led Coalition and specifically to the crown prince muhammad bin salman for normalizing ties with israel and for also uh denigrating his society, denigrating saudi. Society, thank you for that, so lets break some of that down, actually, the first being the fact that we saw, not only yemen have endured these this war, which recently they marked the anniversary of the revolution, but also the fact that they are in talks right now, and our corresponent their talks about howmenese wants their nation to be free of western influence of hejamons, how much of uh of do you think is realistic given the fact . Fact that theyre talking to saudi arabia, which apparently, but i think youll agree, is a somewhat supported by the west, in particular the us, will these talks, these talks yield the results that the yemenes deserve and aspire to, i think this talks directly with saudi arabia was one of the few left option to end the war, because we remember delegation to talk with the so called government or the new. Presency of yemen which is located actually in uh hotels in kuwait one, kuwait two and geneva and stockholm, they have resulted actually in anything because what the saudi actually was using the socalled legitimate government actually to obstruct any any deal, thats why to talk directly with saudi arabia is the best way, you dont you dont need any middleman, because we know that these forces thats loyal to saudi arabia are just a tool and they do want yemen. To be stable, they do want a free government, an independent government in yemen to be formed, this is what exactly sayid abdul malik althi have said today, and as all we have mentioned that he hasnt actually mentioned what has happened in the recent talk with saudi arabia, and i believe it is clear that when he called saudi arabia to immediately end the war and aggression. And sie against jerman, its a clear message that this talk actually hasnt ended really well and i believe that if yemani government will take matters to strike saudi arabia, again i believe that saudi arabia will stop all its effort and will withdraw all its forces as well, the united arab emirates, if santa will continue a resume attacks against the united arab emirates, they have no, the only thing they can do at that time is to draw from yemen. All right, its a pleasure talking to you both. Yusuf from sauna, activist and political. Also for, thank you to you both. With that we come to an end for this edition the news review.

A new report says a us capital is seen a 28 uptake in homicides this year as Violent Crimes continue to rise across the country. A report noted victims of crime upsurge in washington dc cover wide range from Little School girls to. Immigrants, it added, despite all studies carried out, thus far, american researchers and politicians have been unable to find a concrete reason behind a rise in crime rate. The latest figure show washingtons murder rate has jumped a time that its been declining in other major cities. According to police statistics, number of armed car jacking jackings that is in the us capital has more than doubled. Report added that many residents of washington now void going to gas stations at night. As theyre worried about getting carjacked. And now moving to the us district of washington where people have gathered outside the Cuban Embassy and solidarity following sundays attack on the diplomatic premises. The cuban ambassador to the us has condemned the incident is an act of terrorism. Leana turviera says a malta cocktales thrown at the embassy part of pattern of attacks directed at cubas overseas missions over the past 10 years. She stress however attack cannot interrupt the embassys work. Tuban onvoy also called on washington to secure the Embassy Staff and premises to prevent similar attacks. On monday, cuban president miguel deaz canal condemned attack and urge the us to take action. Hatred once again caused a terrorist attack against our embassy in washington, an act of violence. And weakness that could have cost precious lives, we denounce it and await action from the north american authorities, also top cuban diplomat, Bruno Rodriguez paria, blasted the Us Government, saying anticuban groups in the us can such attacks because they feel a sense of impunity, he said havana has repeatedly warned us authorities about the issue, meanwile the us Law Enforcement officials said that they are probing. This attack, no one has yet taken responsibility for throwing two molitov cocktails at the Embassy Compound on sunday. Activists and former us president ial candidate gloria la rieva joined us earlier and told us that washington welcomes anticuba terrorist attacks. I believe that the Us Government actually welcomes these instance. And the long history of terrorist attacks against cuba over 3400 exactly thousand 478 cubans privide mostly by us sponsored terrorist. I would say that the greatest act of terrorism is the us bloccade and the recently designated socalled state sponsor of terrorism that has been placed on cuba along with iran, syria and north korea. These are absolutely illegal designations that has created basically a siege of the island, and that siege, and in addition to the bloccade, has actually caused people to die from lack of medicine, from other maladies that they suffer because of the us policy, so i dont think that the us really cares that the embassy has been attacked. A year has past since attack on northstream pipelines whose perpetrators are still at large. Investigators from around the world are still probing the incident to try to solve the mystery. In late september last year, powerful explosions ripped to the pipelines of northstream network. Um, pardon me, followed by massive leaks of fuel and unprecedented damage, russia and several European Countries are called it sabotage as a. Pipelines are the center of an Energy Standoff between moscow and the west. Now uh, russia, it says investigations by scientists around the world are still underway, amid all the scientific effort though, distinguished american journalist seemore has claimed that the us partnered with norway in a top secret operation, blew up the pipelines. He argues as russia gains so much profit through gas and oil exports, washington damaged the northstream as a deterrent a mid the ukraine war. White house. Has rejected the claims hursh is a celebrated journalist who uncovered the 1969 mileage massacre in vietnam and helped expose us abuses at iraqs notorious grave prison in 2004, and earlier, we spoke to political commentator george zaly about whether there are any clues pointing at whos behind northstream explosions, here he is. I mean, how how can the United States decide that the uh, that there wont be anymore gas pipeline . I mean, its not your gas pipeline. It it belongs to russia, belongs to germany, and how can the United States decide it . He said, well, there wont be a gas pipeline, and then remember, it was a month before that, victoria newland, who is the Current Deputy secretary of state, she said exactly the same thing, that this spikel not go ahead, and again, it was very puzzling, how how can the a us assistant secretary of state, she then was, how can it, how can she decide whether a pipeline that has nothing to do with the United States goes ahead on up, so that thats that gives you a clue.
