- 0:12Speaker 1: Iranian officials have issued direct threats of missile strikes against
- 0:15Speaker 1: Europe if European countries permit the US to utilise their
- 0:19Speaker 1: bases for operations against Iran. A map published by the
- 0:22Speaker 1: Tehran municipality-owned Hamshari newspaper reportedly marked 15 potential European targets,
- 0:29Speaker 1: including British, German and Italian military bases. Security Committee member
- 0:34Speaker 1: Ahmad Bakhshesh Ardestani told Euronews that Iran would not let
- 0:38Speaker 1: Europe's assistance to America go without consequence, stating that if
- 0:42Speaker 1: US bases in Europe are used for attacks, Iran's missiles
- 0:46Speaker 1: will be fired towards Europe. Dr Lynette Nussbacher, who contributed
- 0:50Speaker 1: to UK national security strategies, commented on Iran's capabilities, noting
- 0:55Speaker 1: that while Iran may not possess intercontinental ballistic missiles, its
- 0:59Speaker 1: shorter-range ballistic missiles could still reach parts of southeastern Europe.
- 1:03Speaker 1: She also mentioned Iran's previous launch of two long-range ballistic
- 1:07Speaker 1: missiles toward the US-UK military base on Diego Garcia in
- 1:11Speaker 1: the Indian Ocean. In developments concerning the disputed territories, Norway
- 1:16Speaker 1: has released thousands of pages of previously classified documents from
- 1:20Speaker 1: the 1993 Oslo Accords negotiations. These documents, covering the period
- 1:25Speaker 1: from 1983 to 2003, offer unprecedented transparency into the peace process,
- 1:31Speaker 1: including draft agreements, correspondence and meeting records. Separately, Yessa Council
- 1:36Speaker 1: Chairman Israel Gantz met with Argentine President Javier Millet in
- 1:40Speaker 1: Buenos Aires. Gantz used the meeting, part of a diplomatic tour,
- 1:44Speaker 1: to advocate against West Bank sanctions and seek recognition of
- 1:48Speaker 1: Judea and Samaria. He drew a parallel between sanctions on
- 1:51Speaker 1: Israeli settlements and Argentina's claim to the Falkland Islands, urging
- 1:56Speaker 1: Britain to end its occupation of the islands and cancel
- 1:59Speaker 1: sanctions on Judea and Samaria. Gantz emphasised that the Jewish
- 2:03Speaker 1: people are not foreigners in the region and invited President
- 2:06Speaker 1: Milley for a visit. Within Israel, Eisenkot's bloc is reportedly
- 2:11Speaker 1: planning to establish six to eight special Knesset committees. These
- 2:15Speaker 1: committees are intended to launch an October 7 state inquiry
- 2:18Speaker 1: and advance the reversal of judicial overhaul laws, bypassing the
- 2:22Speaker 1: need for a government vote. Meanwhile, Ahmad Tibai highlighted the
- 2:26Speaker 1: joint list's crucial position in Israeli politics, stating that no
- 2:30Speaker 1: parliamentary or political move in the Knesset can advance without
- 2:34Speaker 1: the joint list. Israeli defence and diplomatic officials reportedly have
- 2:38Speaker 1: no concrete details regarding a purported deal between President Donald
- 2:42Speaker 1: Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu concerning the termination of
- 2:47Speaker 1: US military aid this year. This uncertainty leaves approximately $ 7. 6
- 2:51Speaker 1: billion in in future assistance in question. With Prime Minister
- 2:56Speaker 1: Netanyahu remaining silent on the matter, the Israeli stock market
- 3:00Speaker 1: experienced a significant downturn, with the TA35 index falling by 3.69%
- 3:05Speaker 1: in a single day and approximately 5.6% over the past
- 3:10Speaker 1: two days. Authorities are investigating allegations at Kaplan Medical Centre
- 3:15Speaker 1: in Rehoboth, where three suspects have been detained for questioning.
- 3:19Speaker 1: The investigation concerns claims that blood samples were taken from
- 3:22Speaker 1: patients for research purposes without their consent, potentially bypassing standard
- 3:27Speaker 1: medical treatment protocols. The hospital's head of cardiology has been
- 3:31Speaker 1: suspended as part of the internal inquiry. For continuing coverage
