“Welcome to DC TV. This is your global news channel. I’m Amaru Tus E, and we come to you guys with some breaking news coming from the Middle East as clashes have once again erupted between the Islamic occupation forces of Iran and the United States military. Over the last 24 hours, we have had the IRGC attacking foreign vessels, attacking Kuwait, and of course the US naval assets in the region.”
“The Americans have launched major attacks in the southern parts of the country. There is a couple of reactions, of course. Axios, the media outlet, earlier today reported that the deal is finalized. The US and the Islamic Republic have agreed to a deal. I did say, ‘Don’t believe this. Calm down.'”
“Of course, President Trump said that he continues to reject the terms coming from Tehran. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps also debunked the claims by Axios saying that this is just market manipulation. We haven’t actually agreed to anything. Nothing has been confirmed. But, meanwhile, the Israeli defense forces continue to hit Lebanon, as you can see underneath.”
“We got the live feed from central Beirut. The IRGC are refusing to confirm whether the commander is still alive or dead, Ali al-Husseini. But we’re going to obviously get some confirmation at least from the Israelis or the Americans on that over the next few hours. Let’s talk about the situation first with the clashes in near the Strait of Hormuz and actually in the Persian Gulf as well.”
“First things first. Going to our interactive map, there were initial reports of explosions again over the last couple of hours Bushehr. So we obviously around Bandar Abbas, which is right in the middle as you can see the north northern parts of the Strait of Hormuz in the middle. We already had those explosions late last night and earlier this morning, but if you go to the west southwest of Iran over here we got the Kharg Island right here in the sea Persian Gulf and of course Bushehr, a major port.”
“We started getting tonight reports of explosions around Bushehr, but also just to the south of Bushehr in same province essentially in Jam, which is down here. We also had a number of explosions here. The initial reports were that the Bushehr province was attacked. The media in the Islamic Republic said that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps anti-ship missiles were directed at US warships.”
“For the record, just to clarify, the US warships are no nowhere near here. The US warships are here right now. Let me just put them there we go. Are all around the Gulf of Oman. Close to the Strait of Hormuz, but that’s it. So the Islamic Republic last night they launched from Bandar Abbas towards here, but they also in retaliation they hit again from around Bandar Abbas towards Kuwait.”
“But tonight we had a whole different situation. So if we quickly get rid of these two tonight we had a number of attacks by the IRGC from Jam and from Bushehr towards the United States. So the Americans sent out drones and there were also the F-35s that were activated to retaliate against the the IRGC. Now, quickly going to CENTCOM because we’re also going to see some fake news by the IRGC.”
“Firstly, the first video that we have is the the US Central Command showing footage from the USS Abraham Lincoln conducting flight operations today. Let’s quickly go to that. Now, this was of course to show off that, you know, we are still pretty active. Then we had the IRIB, the Islamic Republic state media, giving us this update.”
“The statement is the cause of the explosion sound in the Jam county in Bushehr was air defense fire against hostile aircraft. This was the initial. And then, the IRGC said that the an American MQ-9 Reaper drone, basically, that you can see on the screen, was shot down over the Iranian coastal city of Jam. Now, that was quite impressive by the ineffective air defense system of the Islamic Republic.”
“A few minutes ago, just before we came live, the US Central Command confirmed that that was a lie. Yes, CENTCOM has posted their claim. Iran’s state TV claimed that the Iranian forces have downed a US aircraft near Bushehr. False. Truth is, no US aircraft was shot down. All US air assets are accounted for. Now, yesterday the Islamic Republic did manage well, it’s to release footage of a downed drone.”
“Now, whether they actually did down a drone or whether this was one of the ones that were from a few weeks ago, a couple of months ago, during the air the the first wave of conflict, but they did obviously broadcast that. But tonight, they’re just talking nonsense. Now, the governor of Jam in Bushehr has said that their hostile aircraft was destroyed.”
“I can confirm and that city is currently in a normal state. Masoud Tangestani, who’s the governor of the county, has said that the events that took place tonight was related to the destruction of more enemy aircrafts. And as is repeated again, the county is currently stable. And there is no more threat. Of course, we’ve also had explosions in Bandar Abbas, which is in the central southern part of Iran.”
“It seems like the US forces are on standby tonight in case the IRGC decide to not just launch more what what the IRGC would call retaliation, even though the IRGC started this again, they might not just target the Americans in the sea, but also they might target the likes of Kuwait or or Bahrain or UAE.”
“And that’s why all air defense systems are on standby. Meanwhile, while we’re waiting for more information about what’s going on in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, we had Scott Bessent, the US Treasury Secretary doing a press conference earlier, and he mentioned that when it comes to the Islamic Republic, we are being patient, but we do not have unlimited patience.”
“President Trump always prefers a peace deal, but if the president doesn’t think he can get peace, then of course kinetic is back. Essentially, the all-out war. Let’s go to Scott Bessent.”
“With the Iranian government, we do not have regime change, but we change the regime. As President Trump said at the cabinet meeting as we’ve said other times, the first layer of leadership is they was eliminated, the second layer, and we’re now at the third layer. And you know, the the way to think about it is the Iranian government such as it is, they is three pillars. It is the elected government, it is the IRGC, and it is the clerics. And they are having trouble communicating. So, we are being patient. We do not have unlimited patience.”
“President Trump always prefers a peace deal. So, everything we have done thus far has been defensive, and at present, that is what we will continue doing. But if President Trump doesn’t think he can get a peace deal, then kinetic is back.”
“Now, it’s good to know that Scott Bessent and his team watch 2 C TV because this is the exact wording that I’ve been using because when President Trump started going around saying that we’ve had regime change, obviously I translated what from usually means cuz don’t take Trump literally, take him seriously.”
“This is exactly the point. As Scott Ritter said and what 2 C TV said months ago, weeks ago, we have had no regime change in Iran, but we have had a change in the regime because the clerics have been pushed away, pushed aside by the IRGC military and Ahmad Vahidi and his gang are basically calling the shots.”
“And you got the government side, you got the clerics, and you’ve got the actual IRGC. The three pillars, completely chaotic. Clerics don’t really have a say anymore and the government they they can’t do much without the consent of the IRGC. And yeah, I mean it’s absolutely spot on by Scott Ritter. Finally, someone said it the way I’ve been saying for some time.”
“It’s not regime change, but it’s a change in the regime. That’s why they are all over the place. Now going to the regime side, we have Ebrahim Azizi, the head of the National Security Committee in the so-called parliament in Tehran. He did an interview earlier saying that it is obvious that President Trump is seeking a way out of this strategic deadlock.”
“They are now repeating the same propaganda lines coming from Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Joe Kent because they are all watching those guys. The IRGC are obsessed with that that side of the podcast world. They don’t understand that what they are doing is going to backfire. All of them. Joe Kent, Tucker Carlson, Maryam Nafal on X, and the IRGC themselves because the more they say the same thing, they are basically being parrots, like NPCs repeating the same thing.”
“There is no original thought. Everybody is repeating each other, right? They’re all saying they’ve been saying for a long time that firstly, the Islamic Republic has won. It’s not just winning, they won. It’s over. And the US has lost. Okay? And but also, President Trump wants a way out.”
“President Trump has about had about five opportunities over the last few weeks, couple of weeks, to sign a deal and get out. Then there were two occasions, one of them was last week, that what was reported in terms of the draft proposal, that was actually a good compromise if you’re President Trump, you want to get out.”
“It would have been terrible for the rest of the world, especially for the Iranian people, but it would have been perfect opportunity, right? But he still didn’t do it because he knows that he’s holding the cards because the blockade of Hormuz is doing its job. It’s paralyzing the regime. It’s creating paranoia and the split inside the regime.”
“And the war is basically still ongoing. But he doesn’t have to do anything. Not yet. There’s no rush. Let’s quickly go to Ebrahim Azizi with English subtitles. It’s kind of small subtitles, so if you can’t read it, don’t worry. At the end of it, I will give you the summary translation.”
“It’s absolutely fascinating. So, he’s basically saying President Trump, the US They’re They’re not strong. They are weak. They’ve been defeated. And he wants a way out. He needs to have a strong, powerful decision-making process. And he And he doesn’t It’s because President Trump doesn’t have to make a decision right now. He’s already decided weeks ago with the blockade.”
“He doesn’t have to do anything. He can just sit back. And obviously them Every time the IRGC, like tonight, launch an attack, he can just hit back, slap them back, tell them to sit down. And they can’t do anything else. The reason the IRGC keep doing this is because they want to provoke President Trump into returning to the air strikes in a rushed way.”
“They want to rush him into it to ruin the strategy cuz they don’t know what the strategy Nobody knows what the strategy is long-term, medium-term at least. So, what they want to do is try to ruin it. Try to basically keep poking the bear because it’s in the interest of the IRGC for the air strikes to return. As as I’ve been repeating and saying, this so-called ceasefire with the blockade is creating uncertainty and paranoia and a massive split inside the regime.”
“If they have an external enemy hitting them, they will be united against the external enemy. That’s just natural in any dictatorship. So, they keep poking the bear, but they don’t want to be the ones that actually started because they don’t want to obviously lose that level of credibility on the international stage.”
“But President Trump is not taking the bait. So, they’re going around repeating what Joe Kent keeps saying or Tucker, it doesn’t really work. Now, President Trump was also interviewed earlier on saying that Again, this is Trump language. That the Islamic Republic are very good negotiators. is simply because they’re not negotiating, they just have their stupid red lines and then they’re just repeating the same things. And saying that well, we hold all the cards. Let’s quickly go to the president from earlier.”
“Well, a deal that wasn’t going to be good for us is the line ultimately because, you know, I’m playing it out and we’re going to see and that’s what I do. I negotiate, they negotiate.”
“They’re very good negotiators, they’re crafty. But in the end, we have all the cards because we’ve defeated them militarily.”
“So, that’s the key point. Whatever happens in the next few days, whatever proposal and negotiations stage we’re going to get to, hypothetically, let’s just say in a crazy way we’re going to get to a point where there will be a deal in order to negotiate another deal.”
“Because if if a deal is announced, it’s not going to be the deal. It’s just going to be a deal to then talk about the deal in future. It’s still the fact that the IRGC don’t know what Trump might do any moment, that’s the key point. President Trump’s keeping them waiting. And he keeps rejecting the deals that have been sent from Tehran.”
“He had every opportunity to take one of them. But he keeps saying no. And they are getting more paranoid and more paranoid. He’s playing games with them and they don’t even know what to do anymore. Because their their tactics that they’ve been using over the last few days by just launching drones and missiles at foreign vessels, US warships, and Kuwait well, it hasn’t really worked, has it? Because they’ve lost more.”
“The Americans have hit southern Iran last night and earlier today, they hit they targeted the head of the IRGC navy who was recently appointed and we haven’t seen or heard from him. Because apparently, he’s dead. But the regime are not admitting to it. He was supposed to come on the state TV earlier this afternoon.”
“Nowhere to be seen. So, where is he? Is he alive? If you could lose the head of your navy again, this is the third one in a row, that easily, you have a bit of a problem with your self-defense. Now, we obviously have the internet back in Iran relatively, still slow and massively restricted, but we are getting a lot more videos coming out from the uprising by the Iranians.”
“Of course, we also have to be the voice of the Iranians inside the country because the legacy mainstream media are not showing the real footage from the streets of Iran. And of course, over the last couple of days, we’ve been showing you guys some of the clips that we are receiving. This one tonight is from Zanjan from the 8th of January when the massacre started.”
“But, the the regime forces hiding in a police station in Zanjan shooting from the windows and the rooftops.”
“This is what happened during the uprising when millions of unarmed civilians decided to protest. The regime forces while hiding in buildings and on rooftops, even though they were fully armed, they still decided to hide. They began the massacre. The beginning of the video, one of the guys filming was saying that in one moment they took down at least 20 unarmed civilians.”
“And that’s just in one tiny city, Zanjan. Across the country in Iran, we had tens of thousands being taken out in 2 days. And this is why President Trump, when he had an opportunity again, as I said recently, to get out of this, he knows because he’s seen this. Also, President Trump is not new to the situation in Iran.”
“His position has been consistent for the past 30, 40 years. Forty 40 odd years. He’s been repeating the same thing about Khomeini, about Khamenei. He has been quite focused on the threat from the Islamic Republic and not just the nuclear issue, about the fundamentalist insane brains. And the fact that the media, now that all this footage is coming out and the media still not showing this, that’s the fascinating part.”
“And that’s what President Trump is still going ahead. He’s not ending it, at least not now. He has five opportunities to end it recently. He’s still putting the pressure, still squeezing them. It’s the right thing to do unless you actually do have a strategy for the end. Now, obviously the air strikes couldn’t have continued because air strikes were not going to bring down the regime, as I said from day one.”
“You can’t just do air strikes forever. You’re going to have to stop it at some point unless you have a different strategy. You can’t just hit keep hitting them. They’re going to go into their underground missile cities. And then the only people you’re going to have on the ground is over the ground is basically civilians. You need a new plan.”
“So, from the outside, they’re squeezing them financially. And also in terms of the resources. There’s an oil crisis, water shortage, and there’s going to be food crisis soon in the next few months. Now, couple of reactions um We have Bill saying is 2 C TV blocked in Iran? Where do people get news? No, they can watch it.”
“But but again, big hello to all our Iranian viewers who are back. Well, some of you guys who have access to good VPN who are watching. And thank you again for all the lovely messages and emails that you guys have been sending me. We will continue our coverage to be the voice of Iran.

“Your friendly free hair cutter. Thank you, Richard. I don’t know why I’m losing my voice again. It’s I don’t know, yeah. I By the way, I’ve recovered from the from the man flu. I’m I’m back.

“Definitely not a dramatic person. I’m very chill, very calm. But yeah, I think this is the end.”
“All right. By the way, don’t forget I think you have probably 2 days left now. 2 days till the end of the world, as I said. 2 days left to take advantage of our 2C.TV offer. Well, technically, 2 days, 23 hours and 35 minutes.”

I think there were there were reports of sirens in one of the Persian Gulf Arab countries. We will wait, but I think we have a crazy crazy person as part of the Islamic Republic.”
“This is the Islamic Republic’s deputy speaker of parliament who’s now said that the Islamic Republic of Iran has become a superpower. I am not joking and I am not exaggerating. In fact, I’m going to put the video on on the screen for you guys. I don’t understand why these guys are so crazy.”
“Um let me just quickly put this so you can see. Um this is tonight in Iran the Islamic Republic state media with English subtitles. If you can’t see it, I’ll give you the summary at the end. He didn’t ask the question. Basically, in case you don’t know, there’s a big crisis right now in inside the regime. You got the three branches, the clerics, IRGC, and the government, as I mentioned before. And there is a massive problem with parliament and the parliamentarians because they’re having a meltdown. Cuz they’re clashing with both the IRGC and the clerics at the same time.”
“And this deputy speaker nobody cares by the way is saying that is repeating what the cardboard supreme leader’s office is saying, Mojtaba Khamenei, that we we we shouldn’t talk to the Americans. Even though the rest of the government keep begging the Americans for talks, and they keep begging for a deal, and President Trump keeps rejecting it. This guy is saying we shouldn’t talk. We should just return to the battlefield. Like, are are you stupid? Just just go away. Just surrender. It’s not going to work out well for you guys. I don’t understand. It’s only been 3 months, by the way, and they are falling apart. It’s so embarrassing. Absolutely embarrassing stuff by the regime in Iran.”
“We have David saying, ‘Know that your family is in my prayers.’ Oh, thank you so much. I appreciate that. And What is this? ‘Their entire navy is at the bottom of the sea, and he is foolish enough to call the IRGC a superpower.’ It’s fascinating. One of the things that they do, by the way, is the similarity between the anti-Western Islamic world and the the socialist side, the left in general, because they are both against the Western values.”
“They have similarities, even though they they will come from different ideologies. What they have in common is that they’re against the Western system and capitalism and everything else. So, they have they use words, or they misuse words, and they try to embrace them. For example, the left they use the word over overuse the word compassion. We are the compassionate side, right? And so, if you if you don’t say that you’re compassionate, or if you don’t say you’re left-wing, that means you’re not compassionate.”
“They say we believe in social justice. The word social, oh, that’s nice. The word justice sounds nice. They put them together. They always overuse words. So, in the Islamic Republic, they keep saying ‘The nation of Iran.’ They basically gaslight you, and they just speak on behalf of everybody else. And that’s what they always tend to do. They they always try to overuse and misuse words and in order to win the propaganda. It’s like Black Lives Matter, the movement. Black Lives Matter. If if you argue against it, that means you don’t think Black Lives Matter. It’s crazy.”
“And but at the same time, nobody really cares. They can keep saying this. They can keep claiming that they’re superpower. Normal people in the world can see. Yeah, there are some people with low IQ who believe what they hear from Joe Kent or CNN. But people who are smart enough, they can do their own homework and they can watch Press TV and still do their homework to find out the truth. And the truth is that the Islamic Republic has been paralyzed. Anyway, we are going to keep an eye on the situation in the Strait of Hormuz. As usual, thank you so much for watching. Don’t forget to join Press TV Plus. I’m Myat Thu See and we are the media.”
