00:00Welcome to the special edition of the Daily News, I'm Anthony Bitanja.
00:20And let's start with the headlines.
00:24The split between Hezbollah and Israel has been replaced by fears of a full-scale war in the region.
00:32Sanchez invites Mahmoud Abbas's meeting in Madrid to halt the rise in the Middle East.
00:41The U.S. Federal Reserve Council is lowering interest rates by 50 points in an effort to stimulate the U.S. economy.
00:55We start with the Middle East, where the Israeli army said today that it bombed six Lebanese military bases
01:02owned by Hezbollah and established to store weapons in southern Lebanon.
01:05With the spread of fears of a full-scale war.
01:09Hezbollah has announced that it has bombed Israeli military bases with missiles.
01:13Here are the details in Mariam Tassoury's report.
01:18After a series of bombings that lasted for a phone call using Hezbollah members inside and outside Lebanon,
01:25the bombing between the Israeli forces and the Lebanese party was resumed.
01:30The Israeli army announced that it had bombed six Lebanese military bases
01:36owned by Hezbollah and established to store weapons in southern Lebanon.
01:40The areas that were targeted, according to Israel, include Shehin, Tiba, Bleda, Misa al-Jabal, Itroun, and Kafr Qala,
01:49in addition to the establishment of weapons storage in the Khayyamah region.
01:53This move comes after Hezbollah bombed Israeli military bases with missiles
01:59at the beginning of a fire strike across the border after the detonation of communications devices.
02:04Israeli media confirmed the drop of 10 missiles from Lebanon on open areas in the Western Galilee, north of Israel.
02:14Faced with these rapid developments witnessed by the area on fire,
02:20the Israeli Minister of Defense, Avgalant, said that the area is entering a new stage of war.
02:27In a phone call between Avgalant and his American counterpart, Lloyd Austin,
02:32Austin reaffirmed his country's commitment to Israel in the face of threats from the Lebanese Hezbollah,
02:38Iran, and its other regional partners.
02:41The investigations come after the White House warned all parties of any escalation in the Middle East
02:48after the Hezbollah-led explosions hit Israel, killing dozens and injuring thousands in just two days.
02:59The number of killings in Hezbollah-linked communications devices in Lebanon increased to 37,
03:06and more than 3,500 injured in various parts of the country
03:11in an attack that rekindled fears of a full-scale war in the region.
03:19In addition, the Japanese company Icom announced today
03:23that it is investigating whether any of the wireless communications devices that exploded in Lebanon
03:29were manufactured.
03:31This came after media reports that these devices carry the company's trademark.
03:37Icom added that it will investigate the facts related to this matter
03:41and publish the information if available on the company's website.
03:49Regarding the other painful blow that Hezbollah received
03:53through the second wave of explosions on communication devices,
03:56we follow the statements of the journalist and political researcher Bshara Kherallah from Beirut.
04:02It is a surprise in terms of the technical superiority of Israel over Hezbollah.
04:11Therefore, it is impossible to describe the situation in Lebanon
04:15either through yesterday's explosions or through the explosions that Hezbollah demanded today.
04:23It is impossible to claim that the explosion was caused by explosives.
04:29It may have been caused by the explosion of lithium batteries.
04:33Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to claim what happened.
04:38However, it is certain that the Israeli invasion of lithium
04:44would not have been possible without the human effort of this team.
04:52It is impossible for an Israeli to enter Hezbollah's house
04:58without the help of people from this environment.
05:03We all know that Israel has proven to be technically superior,
05:08superior in cyber, and superior in everything related to technology,
05:15not only to Hezbollah, but to the whole world.
05:19Therefore, I say that Hezbollah is facing a great challenge.
05:23Hezbollah is able to confront Israel
05:29if it is defeated on the ground or in a normal classic war.
05:34Hezbollah can show some of its capabilities.
05:38I have been saying since the first day that it will not reach the full war
05:45and will not enter the limits of entering the land or the attempt to enter the land.
05:52Hezbollah has a weapon capable of hitting 5,000 elements with one blow.
06:02Why does it expose itself to the dangers of land attacks
06:06that will be imposed by expensive costs?
06:11Hezbollah may wish to enter Israel or try to enter the land
06:19because it has superior capabilities in terms of technology.
06:25In another topic, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas met today in Madrid
06:30with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez
06:32at his first visit to the country since its official recognition as a Palestinian state in May.
06:38After this meeting, Sánchez called for an escalation in the Middle East,
06:43which is increasingly dangerous, which threatens the region.
06:47Sánchez called for the launch of a new party to stop the fire,
06:52to control the self-destruction, to stop the escalation and to live in peace between the countries for peace.
06:58It should be noted that Abbas's visit is ahead of his visit to New York
07:02in the United States to attend the General Assembly meetings of the United Nations next week.
07:09Spain has admitted to the side of Ireland and Norway
07:14that on May 28 it officially recognized as a Palestinian state
07:19the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
07:24On the other hand, the United Nations General Assembly
07:28called for the end of Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands within 12 months
07:32and called for the implementation of sanctions against Israel in an unconstitutional decision
07:38The decision is based on a consultative opinion issued by the International Court of Justice in July
07:44by a request from the General Assembly.
07:46It confirmed that Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands since 1967 is illegal
07:52and that Israel is obliged to end it as soon as possible.
07:57The United Nations also calls for the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Palestinian lands
08:03and to stop the construction of new settlements and the restoration of the lands and properties
08:07that were confiscated and to allow the return of the Palestinian refugees.
08:15In another issue, the Federal Reserve Council lowered the main interest rates
08:21by 50 points in reference to a decrease in inflation.
08:26The officials also sought to stimulate the economy of the United States.
08:30This decision has been announced since 2020
08:34at the end of the meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee in the Federal Reserve Council
08:38and following a series of historical increases in interest rates
08:43launched in 2022 to combat the rise in interest rates.
08:47More details in the report by Kawthar Hammou.
08:52After years of economic turmoil related to the Corona pandemic
08:57and avoiding a possible economic rebound in the United States,
09:01the Federal Reserve encourages the American economy
09:05by lowering all expectations of interest rates
09:09by 50 points to between 4.75% and 5%.
09:16The Federal Reserve will not stop at this limit,
09:19but another reduction will be applied to the interest rate by 0.5% by the end of this year.
09:27This reduction is the first of its kind in four years
09:31and, according to experts, will affect prices in the United States,
09:35starting from real estate to car loans.
09:39It will also encourage the decrease in the interest rate of citizens and companies on borrowing,
09:44which will strengthen economic activity and raise demand for energy
09:48and revive the labor market and reverse inflation.
09:51The economic reading of the federal decision was carried out by Donald Trump politically,
09:57especially since the decision comes only weeks before the presidential election.
10:02Trump considered the Federal Reserve's decision to be a political decision
10:06that aims through it to pave the way for the White House in front of Kamala Harris,
10:11who is seeking to shed light on the economic achievements of the Democrats
10:17under Biden's administration to win these elections.
10:21Accusations that the Federal Reserve has denied in general.
10:24According to economists, this bold step by the Federal Reserve
10:30may mean that its president, Jerome Powell,
10:33wants to pave the way for a period of turmoil in the most important central banks in the world.
10:38A period in which the United States has seen the biggest economic collapse since the Great Depression
10:45and the worst wave of inflation in 40 years.
10:51The Federal Reserve reduced the interest rates by 50 points,
10:57indicating a decrease in inflation,
10:59and also helped those responsible to stimulate the United States economy.
11:03On the importance of this decision and its economic and political implications
11:08on the inside and outside of the United States,
11:10we are joined by Mr. Mahdi Fakir from the White House.
11:14Mr. Al-Mahdi, welcome.
11:19Thank you for having me.
11:21Mr. Al-Mahdi, first of all,
11:23how do you read this decision by the US Federal Reserve
11:27to reduce interest rates by 50 points?
11:32We are faced with a historic decision in all respects,
11:38and this is a decision that extends to the United States
11:42the period of inflationary pressures that it has known since the COVID-19 pandemic,
11:47and what is expected of it,
11:49as well as the economic and financial losses that the international economy has known.
11:55Therefore, it was expected that a reduction would be made.
11:58Perhaps the reduction ratio exceeded all expectations,
12:01but it was necessary to take this step sooner or later.
12:05And the hastening of this step came after reducing the levels of inflation
12:10to measurable levels,
12:12and after a tangible improvement of various indicators,
12:15as well as after the central banks around the world
12:19that raised interest rates, reduced interest rates.
12:23The evidence is that this step boosted the confidence of investors
12:28and raised interest rates higher than the Gulf Central Banks
12:33at a rate that does not exceed 24 hours.
12:36Therefore, the reductions will be made on the economic level,
12:40will encourage investors and restore their confidence,
12:44and this wave of confidence will spread internationally.
12:47Yes, we would like to speak to them more clearly
12:50about how this decision will be reflected in the reduction of interest rates
12:53by the US Federal Reserve on the American economy in particular,
12:56and on the global economy.
12:59Madam, when the interest rates are reduced,
13:03the level of confidence rises,
13:05and therefore the level of spending rises,
13:07and with income, loans and loan sizes rise.
13:11And when funds are available,
13:14the economy thrives,
13:15and the rate of consumption also rises,
13:19and with income, there is a dynamic
13:22that leads with income and by raising the domestic demand
13:26to a large dynamic and a creation of wealth and added value.
13:31As well as the wave of public confidence,
13:33of course, through the increase in the interest rates,
13:36encourages investors to make other decisions
13:40whether it is about investing in the United States
13:43or investing outside the United States.
13:45I am basically talking about multinational companies
13:49whose growth and development strategies exceed American soil.
13:54So, the central role of the American economy
13:59is a global importance on the global level.
14:02Okay, Mr. Al-Mahdi, what are the effects of this decision
14:06in the near and far future?
14:10In the near future, it is a return of confidence for investors,
14:15and therefore, as of January 12,
14:17the economic indicators,
14:19as far as they are concerned,
14:22on the two fronts, the middle and the far,
14:25I think we have entered a positive period
14:28that is far from being similar to the economic indicators
14:31on the international level,
14:33and therefore, many countries will strive
14:36to reduce interest rates in order to
14:39encourage their economies on the one hand,
14:42and on the other hand, we will know a certain stage
14:45that may extend five to ten years
14:47of economic stability,
14:50and therefore, there will be investment,
14:52there will be development,
14:54and as such, different markets and different sectors,
14:57especially the real estate sector,
14:59will know a certain stage.
15:01What I want to emphasize here is that
15:03the interest rate is a main indicator of confidence.
15:08When confidence is available in the financial markets,
15:11it directly affects all sectors
15:15without exception,
15:17and this is a link that enables far-reaching cities
15:20to gain a kind of prosperity,
15:22or the stability of the economy.
15:25Okay, this economic decision,
15:27what is the political implication of this decision
15:30that concerns the American economy,
15:32and the reasons that separate us
15:34from the American elections?
15:37In my appreciation,
15:39the Federal Reserve was historically
15:43not affected by politics.
15:46In fact, I am surprised by these accusations,
15:49and it is said in the United States
15:52that the person in charge of the Federal Reserve
15:55has more credibility than the President
15:57of the United States.
15:59Therefore, I believe that the decision
16:03was expected, perhaps,
16:05as a result of the situation
16:07in which the decision was made.
16:09It will have a very positive effect
16:11on the political parties,
16:13and it will support a certain political position,
16:16but I do not see a link between the two.
16:20Therefore, perhaps,
16:22the Democrats may be in a better position
16:25to defend their candidate,
16:27like Harris,
16:29in the next presidential election.
16:31Mr. Al-Mahdi Faqir,
16:33thank you very much.
16:38Let's go to Tunisia,
16:40where the Supreme Court of Tunisia
16:42issued a preliminary judgment
16:44in prison for a year and eight months
16:46in favor of the candidate
16:48for the presidential election,
16:50Ayashi Al-Zammal,
16:52charged with the use of a testimony
16:54based on incorrect information
16:56and participating in the treatment
16:58and recovery of personal data
17:00of others without permission.
17:02The court also issued the same judgment
17:04in favor of two people
17:06charged with collecting files
17:09On a connected level,
17:11the lawyers in Tunisia
17:13carried out protest stops
17:15in front of the courts
17:17raising slogans
17:19calling for the independence of the judiciary
17:21and guaranteeing fair trials.
17:23They also criticized what they considered
17:25to be complications against lawyers
17:27in their daily activities.
17:29This is the report of our correspondent
17:31from Tunisia, Fathi Al-Falahi.
17:33The lawyers in Tunisia
17:35organized a protest stop
17:37in front of the courts
17:39in all the states of the country
17:41and raised slogans
17:43calling for the independence of the judiciary
17:45and against what they considered
17:47to be complications against lawyers
17:49in their daily activities.
17:51This harmed the rights and freedoms
17:53in the country and the justification
17:55of fair trials.
17:57Today, there are big complications
17:59with clear instructions.
18:01The judges themselves say
18:03that they do not feel safe.
18:05We are upset with the Tunisian judiciary
18:07because there is no fair trial
18:09without an independent,
18:11safe and legal judiciary.
18:13Today, we saw in the last trials
18:15the trial of Mr. Sonny El-Dahmany
18:17that he was not defended
18:19and the trial was not fair
18:21in all its clarity.
18:23Mr. Sonny El-Dahmany's trial
18:25was cut off
18:27and the defense was denied
18:29the continuation of his appeal.
18:31Journalists were prevented
18:33from entering the courts
18:35of the Tunisian judiciary
18:37which led to arrests
18:39and protests in their ranks
18:41and pushed the lawyers
18:43to move their stand
18:45outside the courts.
18:47This is a decision
18:49that prohibits you
18:51from covering a protest
18:53for the Tunisian lawyer
18:55and from entering the court
18:57is a decision contrary to the law.
18:59Although we agreed
19:01that the lawyers should have
19:03an official ID card,
19:05but in the end,
19:07we were denied
19:09and our protest was justified.
19:11Lawyers' protests
19:13to defend the independence of the judiciary
19:15continued
19:17with the announcement
19:19of the candidate
19:21for the presidential elections
19:23Ayash Al-Zammal,
19:25who has been imprisoned
19:27for days for allegations
19:29against him,
19:31is trying to prevent him
19:33from carrying out his election campaign.
