00:00:00,160 –> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: Israel Defense Forces IDF has confirmed that the Middle East

2
00:00:04,280 –> 00:00:08,439
country soldiers carried out massive air strikes on multiple locations

3
00:00:08,480 –> 00:00:12,720
in yemen capital of Sanar on Sunday, while Nasradinema, the

4
00:00:12,839 –> 00:00:16,120
chairman of Yemen’s Saba news agency and the vice president

5
00:00:16,199 –> 00:00:19,359
of the media authority of answer Allah movement that has

6
00:00:19,440 –> 00:00:22,800
Huthi’s group as one of its organizations, said the air

7
00:00:22,839 –> 00:00:25,960
defenses were able to forward the majority of the Israeli

8
00:00:26,000 –> 00:00:29,839
attacks and confronted several of its combat formations, which he

9
00:00:29,879 –> 00:00:33,520
said forced Israeli soldiers to retreat with the Huthis fighters

10
00:00:33,600 –> 00:00:38,920
using locally manufactured air defense systems. According to SRIL Defense Force,

11
00:00:39,520 –> 00:00:44,520
multiple military targets belonging to the Hothi terrorist regime in Sana, Yemen,

12
00:00:44,920 –> 00:00:48,520
including a military site in which the Presidency Palace is located,

13
00:00:48,880 –> 00:00:52,359
the adarand TSAs power plants, and a site for storing fuel,

14
00:00:52,799 –> 00:00:55,799
all used for the military activity of the Hothi regime.

15
00:00:56,640 –> 00:00:59,880
These strikes were carried out in response to repeated Hothia

16
00:01:00,159 –> 00:01:04,799
tax on Israel with missiles and UAVs. The Huthis, backed

17
00:01:04,799 –> 00:01:09,120
by Iran, continued to exploit civilian infrastructure for terror purposes.

18
00:01:09,959 –> 00:01:13,439
News agencies reported that Israel launched the air strikes in

19
00:01:13,519 –> 00:01:17,920
Yemen’s capital, Sanar, hitting areas near the presidential complex and

20
00:01:18,000 –> 00:01:22,159
missile bases, with additional strikes reported in her Dada. It

21
00:01:22,280 –> 00:01:25,319
was gathered that Israel carried out the strikes in response

22
00:01:25,359 –> 00:01:28,719
to days of attempted Hothi drone and ballistic missile attack

23
00:01:28,760 –> 00:01:33,040
against Israel. Local media reported with a photograph showing the

24
00:01:33,159 –> 00:01:39,519
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Natanyahu, Defense Minister Katz and IDF

25
00:01:39,599 –> 00:01:43,519
chief Al Zamir at the Israeli Air Force Command Center

26
00:01:43,599 –> 00:01:47,239
in Tel Aviv, observing today’s strikes on yemen capital on

27
00:01:47,319 –> 00:01:51,280
a military facility near the presidential palace, a fuel depot

28
00:01:51,519 –> 00:01:56,000
and two power stations. Israeli air strikes hit Yemen’s capital

29
00:01:56,079 –> 00:01:59,400
on Sunday, just days after the Hothi rebels fired a

30
00:01:59,480 –> 00:02:02,879
missile timeward Israel that its military described as the first

31
00:02:02,920 –> 00:02:05,920
cluster bomb the rebels had fired at it since twenty

32
00:02:06,000 –> 00:02:10,520
twenty three. The rebels Al Massira satellite television reported a

33
00:02:10,560 –> 00:02:13,960
strike on an oil company, and video on social media

34
00:02:14,039 –> 00:02:18,919
showed a fireball erupting there. Nasradanaimer, deputy head of answer

35
00:02:18,960 –> 00:02:23,560
Allah’s Huthi’s media authority and chairman of Yemen’s Sarburne News

36
00:02:23,560 –> 00:02:27,680
Agency said Yemeni air defenses intercepted most of the Israeli

37
00:02:27,680 –> 00:02:32,319
air raids, forcing several formations to withdraw. He stressed that

38
00:02:32,439 –> 00:02:36,319
Yemen’s military operations in support of Gaza will continue until

39
00:02:36,360 –> 00:02:40,360
the aggression ends and the blockade is lifted. Aimer dismissed

40
00:02:40,400 –> 00:02:43,680
Israel’s targeting of a civilian fuel station in Sanna as

41
00:02:43,680 –> 00:02:47,439
an act of barbarism and bankruptcy with no impact on

42
00:02:47,520 –> 00:02:52,879
military capabilities, warning it will only trigger further escalation. In quotes,

43
00:02:53,199 –> 00:02:56,639
he said, targeting a civilian fuel station on a main

44
00:02:56,759 –> 00:03:01,479
street will have no impact on military operations. Thanks to God,

45
00:03:01,800 –> 00:03:04,400
the air defenses were able to thwart the majority of

46
00:03:04,439 –> 00:03:08,639
the Zionist aggression and confront several of its combat formations,

47
00:03:08,719 –> 00:03:12,960
forcing them to retreat using locally manufactured air defense systems.

48
00:03:13,719 –> 00:03:17,039
Our military operations in support of Gaza will not cease,

49
00:03:17,400 –> 00:03:20,479
God willing, except with the cessation of the aggression and

50
00:03:20,520 –> 00:03:23,919
the lifting of the siege on it. Targeting a civilian

51
00:03:23,960 –> 00:03:26,919
fueled station on a main street will certainly have no

52
00:03:27,000 –> 00:03:31,000
impact on the military operations. Rather, a young man from

53
00:03:31,080 –> 00:03:34,080
Delta State in the oil rich Niger Delta Region in

54
00:03:34,199 –> 00:03:37,520
Nigeria has been arrested after he conspired with his friend

55
00:03:37,560 –> 00:03:40,199
to fake a kidnapping to get money from his family

56
00:03:40,280 –> 00:03:43,280
in order to be able to travel abroad. The young

57
00:03:43,360 –> 00:03:46,520
man was seen in a video the alleged kidnapper sent

58
00:03:46,599 –> 00:03:49,520
to his family threatened to be killed with a cutlass

59
00:03:49,599 –> 00:03:52,840
placed on his neck by the suspected fake kidnapper, who

60
00:03:52,879 –> 00:03:55,840
is also a native and inder Gene of Delta State,

61
00:03:55,960 –> 00:03:59,240
but faked his voice to sound like an houser Fulani

62
00:03:59,319 –> 00:04:02,919
man from Lawn, Nigeria. According to one of the popular

63
00:04:03,039 –> 00:04:07,520
human rights activists against insecurity in the West Africa country,

64
00:04:07,840 –> 00:04:11,599
Harrison Gwamnershu, the two suspects were arrested inside the bush

65
00:04:11,639 –> 00:04:15,719
after intelligence gathering indicated that the kidnapping was not genuine,

66
00:04:15,919 –> 00:04:19,079
adding that they were not mobilized by Senator ned muniir

67
00:04:19,240 –> 00:04:23,639
en Woco, the senator representing Delta North’s senatorial Zone, who

68
00:04:23,680 –> 00:04:26,480
had said in a press statement that the father of

69
00:04:26,519 –> 00:04:29,839
the supposed victim, together with two members of the Idamu

70
00:04:29,920 –> 00:04:34,120
jay Uboko community, reached out to me. I also spoke

71
00:04:34,160 –> 00:04:36,680
with the victim’s brothers as well as the police in

72
00:04:36,759 –> 00:04:41,279
islae Uku and Asaba. In addition, I contacted and mobilized

73
00:04:41,319 –> 00:04:45,160
the Idamu jay Ugboko vigilante group and held discussions with

74
00:04:45,240 –> 00:04:49,480
my police contacts in Asaba, giving clear instructions to track

75
00:04:49,600 –> 00:04:52,680
the kidnappers and insure the safe rescue of the victim.

76
00:04:53,079 –> 00:04:56,759
Throughout the operation, I received tracking updates and was kept

77
00:04:56,839 –> 00:05:00,759
informed of the rescue movements from Asaba to issla Uku

78
00:05:00,959 –> 00:05:04,480
until the eventual arrests were made. In an earlier post,

79
00:05:04,839 –> 00:05:08,519
Harrison Guamblershoe had said that for clarity, I do not

80
00:05:08,680 –> 00:05:11,560
know who he claims he mobilized for a rescue mission.

81
00:05:11,959 –> 00:05:14,399
I also do not know what he meant by saying

82
00:05:14,480 –> 00:05:18,560
he mobilized the police and local vigilantes. I personally fueled

83
00:05:18,600 –> 00:05:22,439
three vehicles, paid other logistics for the operation he’s claiming

84
00:05:22,480 –> 00:05:27,079
he mobilized. According to the popular human rights and life defender,

85
00:05:27,519 –> 00:05:31,959
Harrison Gwamlershu, on Sunday, the sixteenth of August twenty twenty five,

86
00:05:32,319 –> 00:05:34,759
an alarm was raised that a man had been kidnapped

87
00:05:34,759 –> 00:05:40,800
at aniecho Obo Aniocha North Local Government Area, Delta State. Immediately,

88
00:05:41,160 –> 00:05:44,959
the police Special Anti Kidnapping and Cyber Crime Unit o Saba,

89
00:05:45,240 –> 00:05:49,279
led by the OC, swung into action, working tirelessly with

00:05:49,360 –> 00:05:53,240
a team of military offices from sixty three Brigadeer Saba,

91
00:05:53,519 –> 00:05:58,600
the Nigeria Forest Security Service NFSS and Delta State Government

92
00:05:58,639 –> 00:06:03,120
house trackers advances toiselee Uku to rescue the alleged victim.

93
00:06:03,600 –> 00:06:07,680
After hours of coordinated intelligence gathering, it was discovered that

94
00:06:07,759 –> 00:06:10,519
the incident was not a genuine abduction but a case

95
00:06:10,560 –> 00:06:14,759
of self kidnapping. The location was secured and the two

96
00:06:14,839 –> 00:06:18,040
suspects behind the act were arrested and are now in custody.

97
00:06:18,759 –> 00:06:21,639

Executive Governor of Delta State, for standing firmly behind security operations.

103
00:06:45,399 –> 00:06:48,319
As we commend these gallant men and women, we must

104
00:06:48,360 –> 00:06:52,439
also stress the need for greater support. The security teams

105
00:06:52,519 –> 00:06:57,360
involved in this operation need stronger logistics, equipment and resources.

106
00:06:57,399 –> 00:07:00,920
To sustain their work and extend their coverage across Anambra State.

107
00:07:01,000 –> 00:07:05,279
Governor Professor Charles Chukuma Soludo has dismissed eight members of

108
00:07:05,360 –> 00:07:09,199
the state special vigilante group known as Aginekember, after the

109
00:07:09,240 –> 00:07:12,600
sacked security operatives were seen in a now viral video

110
00:07:12,639 –> 00:07:17,560
allegedly assaulting a female National Youth Service Corps NYSC member,

111
00:07:17,920 –> 00:07:21,160
Jennifer Ellibore, to the level of complete nakedness after they

112
00:07:21,279 –> 00:07:24,720
torn her clothes and continued assaulting her even when they

113
00:07:24,759 –> 00:07:28,439
observed during the process nothing more was covering any part

114
00:07:28,519 –> 00:07:32,079
of her body. This the dismissed vigilantes did after they

115
00:07:32,120 –> 00:07:35,600
allegedly chased some young men on motorcycles they claimed were

116
00:07:35,600 –> 00:07:38,519

00:08:29,800 –> 00:08:33,240
an action which he described as totally outside the mandate

130
00:08:33,320 –> 00:08:37,919
of the agency and utterly condemnable. Mister Amikai stressed that

131
00:08:37,960 –> 00:08:42,039
the Soludo administration will not tolerate any form of unprofessionalism,

132
00:08:42,440 –> 00:08:46,799
brutality or abuse of office by security operatives, assuring that

133
00:08:46,840 –> 00:08:50,639

rights in all security engagements. He assured that the incident

146
00:09:42,600 –> 00:09:45,480
will be used as a turning point to strengthen discipline

00:10:10,919 –> 00:10:15,679
been identified. The command, however, notes that the alleged victim’s

154
00:10:15,720 –> 00:10:21,360
unavailability has temporarily stalled the ongoing investigative process. Meanwhile, the

155
00:10:21,440 –> 00:10:24,679
Command has reiterated that assault in any form remains a

156
00:10:24,679 –> 00:10:28,039
criminal offense under the Nigerian law and reserves the right

was pinned together below her private part, saying the Ybbom

166
00:10:59,120 –> 00:11:03,240
air hostess had allegedly broke her phone necklace and forcefully

167
00:11:03,240 –> 00:11:06,080
removed her wig hair from her head, which caused her

168
00:11:06,080 –> 00:11:09,080

she hit the air hostess on the cheek, adding she

170
00:11:12,679 –> 00:11:15,960
became more aggressive when she saw the airport’s staff video

171
00:11:16,120 –> 00:11:19,120
recording her nakedness while she was battling to cover her

172
00:11:19,120 –> 00:11:21,559
body as a result of her shirt that was torn

173
00:11:21,600 –> 00:11:26,600
with her chest sexual organs completely exposed. Comfort Edmanson gave

174
00:11:26,679 –> 00:11:29,120
her own side of the story in an eleven minute

175
00:11:29,200 –> 00:11:33,679
video she posted on her Instagram profile on Sunday, August seventeenth,

176
00:11:33,720 –> 00:11:37,200
twenty twenty five, which was exactly after one week the

177
00:11:37,240 –> 00:11:40,720
incident occurred. She said she was the one who begged

178
00:11:40,720 –> 00:11:43,240
the co passenger to help switch off her phone when

179
00:11:43,279 –> 00:11:45,759
the plane was about to take off at Uyo Airport,

180
00:11:46,200 –> 00:11:49,200
contrary to the narratives painted by a Bomb Air management

181
00:11:49,279 –> 00:11:51,600
that she refused to switch off her phone and a

182
00:11:51,600 –> 00:11:54,759
co passenger on board the plane forcefully took the phone

183
00:11:54,799 –> 00:11:58,320
from her and switched it off, and thereafter Comfort Emanson

184
00:11:58,399 –> 00:12:01,559
engaged the co passenger and other staff of the airline

185
00:12:01,600 –> 00:12:04,360
in a long war of words the Ibom Air management

186
00:12:04,440 –> 00:12:08,919
referred to as tirade. Details of her statement, as transcribed

187
00:12:08,919 –> 00:12:14,080
and presented by Channel’s television, reads verbatim below. Comfort Emanson,

188
00:12:14,360 –> 00:12:17,879
an air passenger embroiled in a controversial Ibom Air incident,

189
00:12:18,279 –> 00:12:20,879
has given a detailed account of the events on board

190
00:12:20,919 –> 00:12:24,080
the flight that led to her arrest, arraignment, and eventual

191
00:12:24,200 –> 00:12:27,759
discharge by a Lagos court. In a video shared on

192
00:12:27,799 –> 00:12:32,440
her Instagram page on Sunday, Emanson expressed gratitude to supporters

193
00:12:32,480 –> 00:12:34,960
who stood by her during what she described as a

194
00:12:35,120 –> 00:12:40,039
traumatic ordeal. Narrating her version of events, the real estate

195
00:12:40,080 –> 00:12:43,799
consultant recalled that on August tenth, twenty twenty five, she

196
00:12:43,879 –> 00:12:47,320
boarded a flight from Muyo to Lagos. She alleged that

197
00:12:47,360 –> 00:12:51,720
a disagreement began when a fight attendant identified as Juliana

198
00:12:52,200 –> 00:12:54,919
insisted she switched off her phone rather than place it

199
00:12:54,960 –> 00:12:58,600
in flight mode. According to her, one of her two

200
00:12:58,639 –> 00:13:01,879
phones had a faulty power but I showed her the

201
00:13:01,960 –> 00:13:05,200
phone and told her the power button was bad. She

202
00:13:05,320 –> 00:13:08,000
said I could still switch it off through the settings.

203
00:13:08,399 –> 00:13:11,759
With the help of a fellow passenger, I eventually managed

204
00:13:11,759 –> 00:13:15,840
to switch off both phones. She explained. When we landed

205
00:13:15,840 –> 00:13:19,919
in Lagos, everybody was getting out of the aircraft. I

206
00:13:20,000 –> 00:13:24,440
went to pee. Coming outside, everybody had already left. I

207
00:13:24,519 –> 00:13:27,399
had to rush carry my stuff and moved to rush

208
00:13:27,440 –> 00:13:31,000
out of the aircraft. Going out of the aircraft, this

209
00:13:31,240 –> 00:13:35,279
lady Juliana, stopped me, and I asked her, why did

210
00:13:35,320 –> 00:13:38,399
you stop me? Why are you stopping me from going

211
00:13:38,399 –> 00:13:42,240
out of the aircraft. Everybody has left, so I need

212
00:13:42,279 –> 00:13:45,639
to go out. She didn’t say anything to me. She

213
00:13:45,799 –> 00:13:48,399
stared at me with a bad eye. I picked up

214
00:13:48,440 –> 00:13:51,879
my phone and started recording. That was when she pushed

215
00:13:51,919 –> 00:13:55,879
me back inside the aircraft, dragged my wig frontal, tore

216
00:13:55,960 –> 00:14:00,000
my clothes and broke my necklace. The pain was unbearable.

241
00:15:36,720 –> 00:15:40,720
men have been responsible for masterminding many terrorist attacks against

242
00:15:40,840 –> 00:15:45,519
Nigeria over the past years. According to Ribadu, the first

243
00:15:45,639 –> 00:15:50,759
is Mahmud Mohammad Osman aka Abu Barah ABIs Maktar, the

244

under foreign jihadist instructors from Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria, specializing

254
00:16:33,759 –> 00:16:38,240
in weapons handling and ied fabrication. These two men have

255
00:16:38,399 –> 00:16:42,559
been on Nigeria’s most wanted list for years. They jointly

256
00:16:42,600 –> 00:16:48,159
spearheaded multiple attacks on civilians, security forces, and critical infrastructure.

257
00:16:48,840 –> 00:16:52,519

263
00:17:11,960 –> 00:17:16,119
terrorist groups across the Makreb, particularly in Mali, Niger and

00:17:16,119 –> 00:17:20,720
Bukina Fasso. The two men who were wanted internationally are

265
00:17:20,759 –> 00:17:25,079
currently in custody. The capture of Abu Bara and Malam Mamuda,

266
00:17:25,440 –> 00:17:29,440
the group’s leader and deputy commander, respectively, marks one of

267
00:17:29,480 –> 00:17:32,839

00:17:36,119 –> 00:17:40,960
Friday in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelensky has said he

270
00:17:41,039 –> 00:17:45,000
knows the treachery of President Putin that in the coming days,

271
00:17:45,319 –> 00:17:48,920
Russia’s soldiers may try to increase pressure and strikes against

272
00:17:49,000 –> 00:17:53,960
Ukrainian positions in order to create more favorable political circumstances

273
00:17:54,000 –> 00:17:57,640
for talks with global actors. Zelensky made this statement some

274
00:17:57,799 –> 00:18:01,559
hours ago while stating that Ukrainian and soldiers have achieved

275
00:18:01,599 –> 00:18:05,559
some successes in Daranjesk region, especially in the areas of

276
00:18:05,599 –> 00:18:10,440
Dobrapilia and Pokrosk. Then ordered the Commander in Chief Alexander

277
00:18:10,519 –> 00:18:13,920
Serski to speak with combat commanders that Ukraine needs strong

278
00:18:13,960 –> 00:18:18,519
positions and truly tangible resistance to the enemy. In his words,

279
00:18:18,839 –> 00:18:22,559
Zelensky said, I received a report from Commander in Chief

280
00:18:22,599 –> 00:18:27,279
Alexander Serski the front, the defense of positions and up

281
00:18:27,319 –> 00:18:30,160
to date information on the intentions and movements of the

282
00:18:30,240 –> 00:18:34,119
Russian Army. We are defending our positions along the entire

283
00:18:34,200 –> 00:18:36,799
front line, and for the second day in a row,

284
00:18:37,200 –> 00:18:40,559
we have achieved successes in some extremely difficult areas in

285
00:18:40,599 –> 00:18:44,559
the Daranjesk region, in the direction of Dobrapilia and Pokrosk

286
00:18:45,279 –> 00:18:48,079
in particular, I want to commend the units of the

287
00:18:48,119 –> 00:18:51,200
first Corps of the National Guard of Ukraine, as of

288
00:18:51,759 –> 00:18:54,680
the units of the seventh Corps of the Aerosault Forces,

289
00:18:54,960 –> 00:18:58,160
the units of the thirty eighth Separate Marine Brigade named

290
00:18:58,319 –> 00:19:01,640
after Hetman Petro Sahedici, as well as the units of

291
00:19:01,680 –> 00:19:06,799
our ninety third Separate Mechanized Brigade Colony YAH. The destruction

292
00:19:06,920 –> 00:19:10,079
of the occupiers who tried to infiltrate deeper into our

293
00:19:10,119 –> 00:19:14,640
positions continues. There has also been an important replenishment of

294
00:19:14,759 –> 00:19:20,079
Ukraine’s exchange fund with Russian soldiers. The Commander in Chief

295
00:19:20,160 –> 00:19:23,359
also reported on the actions of our units in the Sumi,

296
00:19:23,640 –> 00:19:28,160
Kharkiv and Zaporigia regions. I am grateful to all our

297
00:19:28,200 –> 00:19:32,079
warriors for their resilience. Based on the political and diplomatic

298
00:19:32,160 –> 00:19:36,799
situation around Ukraine and knowing Russia’s treachery, we anticipate that

299
00:19:36,839 –> 00:19:39,160
in the coming days, the Russian Army may try to

300
00:19:39,279 –> 00:19:42,960
increase pressure and strikes against Ukrainian positions in order to

301
00:19:43,000 –> 00:19:47,480
create more favorable political circumstances for talks with global actors.

302
00:19:48,240 –> 00:19:51,880
We are documenting the movement and preparations of Russian troops.

303
00:19:52,319 –> 00:19:57,359
Of course, we will counteract if necessary asymmetrically. I asked

304
00:19:57,400 –> 00:20:01,720
the Commander in chief to speak with combat. Ukraine needs

305
00:20:01,759 –> 00:20:05,559
strong positions and truly tangible resistance to the enemy. I

306
00:20:05,680 –> 00:20:09,559
thank every one of our soldiers, sergeants and officers who

307
00:20:09,599 –> 00:20:12,960
are carrying out combat missions and destroying the occupiers in

308
00:20:13,000 –> 00:20:17,799
the way that is necessary for Ukraine’s confidence. Glory to Ukraine.

309
00:20:17,960 –> 00:20:21,839
We had a long and substantive conversation with Potis, President

310
00:20:21,920 –> 00:20:25,440
of the United States. We started with one on one

311
00:20:25,519 –> 00:20:29,799
talks before inviting European leaders to join us. This call

312
00:20:29,920 –> 00:20:32,880
lasted for more than an hour and a half, including

313
00:20:32,920 –> 00:20:36,400
about an hour of our bilateral conversation with President Trump.

314
00:20:37,200 –> 00:20:40,680
Ukraine reaffirms its readiness to work with maximum effort to

315
00:20:40,720 –> 00:20:44,720
achieve peace. President Trump informed about his meeting with the

316
00:20:44,799 –> 00:20:48,160
Russian leader and the main points of the discussion. It

317
00:20:48,240 –> 00:20:51,319
is important that America’s strength has an impact on the

318
00:20:51,359 –> 00:20:56,039
development of the situation. We support President Trump’s proposal for

319
00:20:56,079 –> 00:21:00,480
a trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the USA, and Russi process

320
00:21:00,599 –> 00:21:04,480
walk on level, bringin you, brings in a more digital

321
00:21:04,640 –> 00:21:04,839
