00:01Almost a month after the ceasefire of the 12-day war between Iran and Israel,

00:06residents have returned to their homes damaged by missile and drone strikes.

00:10They questioned the Iranian authorities' level of preparedness for Israeli attacks

00:15and the lack of warning systems and bomb shelters.

00:18They said although Israel dismissed targeting Iranian civilians,

00:22many residents were killed during the fighting.

00:25The

00:53in these years why do we have a great fun with you?

00:57Why do we have a bad guy?

00:59We have a bad guy with you.

01:01But why did we have a bad guy?

01:03She says that we have a bad guy.

01:05But we had a bad guy.

01:07We're a bad guy.

01:09We could just accept this thing.

01:12My friends and my friends only in this side

01:15have 22-22 pictures in.

01:17Is that all of you should see?

01:19Is Israel bottle of man?

01:22Israel launched the war on June 13th, attacking Iranian nuclear facilities and killing top

01:42military commanders and civilians in the worst blow to Iran since its war with Iraq in the

01:481980s. Iran retaliated with barrages of missiles on Israeli military sites, infrastructure and

01:54cities, and two days after the June 22nd U.S. military strikes that devastated Iran's three

02:01nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan, Iran and Israel reached a ceasefire. On Monday,

02:09Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi said they cannot give up on its nuclear enrichment program

02:15even as it was severely damaged during the war.

02:19It is now stopped because, yes, damages are serious and severe, but obviously we cannot

02:27give up our enrichment because it is an achievement of our own scientists. And now more than that,

02:38it is a question of national pride. Our nuclear program, our enrichment program is not something

02:43imported from outside that can be destroyed by bombings. It is developed by ourselves. It is

02:48an achievement by ourselves. The technology is there. The scientists are there. You know,

02:53the people who have run these facilities are there. Buildings can be rebuilt. You know,

02:58facilities can be rebuilt. Machines can be, you know, replaced because the technology is there.

03:04The foreign ministry clarified that what Iran's supreme leader and other officials always said,

03:10death to America is in fact death to the U.S. hegemonic policies, not the people of America.

03:16They confirmed a meeting between Iran, Russia and China to discuss Tehran's nuclear program

03:22and the risks of sanctions being reimposed on Tehran, as well as a new round of nuclear negotiations

03:28with Britain, France and Germany to be held in Istanbul on July 25th.
