Tehran Still Ready to Mend Ties with Riyadh Despite ‘Foolish’ Moves

Seyyed Abbas Mousavi said Saturday if there is a misunderstanding it must be resolved, and we must not allow the region to undergo developments that let third parties and trans-regional countries take advantage of this situation.

“The readiness of the Islamic Republic of Iran to negotiate with the countries of the region is a matter already announced, and our initiatives and plans have always been in line with such policy.”

Mousavi made the comments in response to a question regarding the goals of Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan’s Sunday visit to Tehran.

The Iranian official said the Pakistani Prime Minister will meet with senior Iranian officials in Tehran on Sunday.

“In the framework of the longstanding and friendly relations between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Imran Khan will make his second visit to Iran this year within the agenda of close and friendly cooperation between the two countries.”

According to Mousavi, Imran Khan is scheduled to meet with President Hassan Rouhani, and the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

He also noted that regional and international issues as well as the latest developments in bilateral relations between Iran and Pakistan are the main goals of Imran Khan’s one-day visit to Iran.

Regarding the possibility of Islamabad’s mediation between Tehran and Riyadh, he said the mediation of Imran Khan is not on the agenda at this time, but the latest and most important regional and international developments will be discussed.

The mediation initiative comes as Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman had asked Imran Khan to help calm tensions with Tehran.

Iranian Scientists Invent Smart Uniform for Soldiers, Climbers

Amir Abbas Mohammadi, the project researcher, says there was a global call for the implementation of the Future Soldier Research Project and all researchers and scholars were asked to submit their ideas in this regard.

“In this project, we designed a fully smart uniform for soldiers and climbers and made a prototype that included three sections: garment, gloves and boots, each of them with special abilities.”

“In the first phase, we introduced gloves for climbers that could provide heat to the user at a temperature of minus 40 degrees; also in areas without signal they could provide vital signs and geographical indications to the climber. These gloves will prevent climbers from getting lost,” he said.

The researcher adds that the boots made for soldiers are equipped with scanners, saying “The scanners in the boots can scan mines and radioactive materials from up to 5 metres away.”

The boots are capable of scanning 30 to 40-cm depth of land to find landmines, and is capable of scanning radioactive material and mines and displaying everything with alarms on a screen, he added.

Since it is equipped with various sensors, when the soldier is shot, it uses a sensor, based on the status of vital signs such as pulse or blood pressure to shock the heart so that the soldier does not become unconscious.

The researcher says it can also send the coordinates of the injured soldier to the nearest comrade for rescue and relief operations.

“The uniform is designed in a way that it can display the vital signs, as well as geographical location on an LCD.”

Mohammadi said the uniform is able to keep the body warm in the cold or cool in the heat.

This outfit is equipped with 12 sensors for “pulse”, “blood pressure”, “humidity”, “temperature”, “geographic coordinates”, “distance” and “light and laser”.

He further stated that the project won the third place in Istanbul International Inventions Fair (ISIF’19), where 400 teams and 1,000 inventors from 30 countries had participated.

The 4th Istanbul International Invention Fair – ISIF’19 was held last month at International Istanbul Atatürk Airport.

The target group of ISIF are international and national individual inventors, R&D centres, manufacturers and commercial companies, industrialists, entrepreneurs, special researchers, patent consultants, patent offices, private or state-sponsored research institutes, science parks, technology development zones, technology transfer offices, universities, laboratories, institutions and organizations related to intellectual property rights, angel investors, venture capital groups, innovation promoters, patent attorneys, invention associations, relevant government agencies and non-governmental organizations.

Iran Vows to Retaliate Evil Acts in International Waters

Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Vice Admiral Ali Shamkhani said on Saturday, “Piracy and evil acts in international waters aimed at endangering the safety of trade vessels plying across the waters will not remain unanswered.”

He said an ad hoc committee has been set up to probe into the attack on the Iranian vessel which was hit by two missiles off the coast of Saudi Arabia in the Red Sea.

Shamkhani said the committee will soon present its report to relevant authorities to make the necessary decisions accordingly.

“By reviewing the existing video footage and the data collected, the main clues in this dangerous adventurism have been discovered,” he added.

Two separate explosions caused by missile attacks hit an Iranian oil tanker operated by the National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) near the Saudi port city of Jeddah early Friday.

The incident took place some 60 miles from Jeddah, according to a statement by the NITC.

The blasts hit the vessel’s hull, causing heavy damage to the vessel’s two main tanks, resulting in an oil spill in the Red Sea. The leak has been stopped, and the ship is returning to the Persian Gulf.

Shamkhani also touched upon other acts of sabotage against Iranian oil tankers over the past several months in the Red Sea.

“Triggering insecurity in international waters will lead to worrisome dangers for global economy, and the responsibility for its consequences will rest with masterminds, perpetrators and supporters of such provocative moves,” he said.

Iran Investigating Attack on Its Oil Tanker: Spokesman

Speaking on Saturday, Rabiei said at a time when the region needs peace and tranquility more than ever to heal long-suffering wounds, there are individuals, groups, and governments whose survival depends on aggression because they are profiting.

He went on to say that these parties are seeking opportunities to cause more devastation.

“The last case of these evil acts was an attack on the Iranian oil tanker in the Red Sea, that suspected agents behind it once again showed they are doing their best to create another tension,” underlined the spokesman.

“Aware of this, the Islamic Republic of Iran is carefully studying the incident to find out the facts without any haste. Undoubtedly, appropriate response will be given to the designers of this cowardly attack, but we will wait until all aspects of the plot are clarified.”

“There is a question: Are those, who without any credible evidence hastily accused Iran of disrupting free shipping in the Persian Gulf and invading Aramco facilities, now ready to defend once again the principles of freedom of navigation in international waters? Are they ready to condemn such an attack on the Iranian ship?” he asked.

Two separate explosions, possibly caused by missile attacks, hit the Iranian oil tanker SABITI operated by the National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) near the Saudi port city of Jeddah early on Friday.

The NITC said in a statement the hull of the ship sustained two separate explosions about 100km (60 miles) off the Saudi port city of Jeddah.

The company said contrary to reports, “there is no fire aboard the ship and the ship is completely stable.”

Experts believe it has been a “terrorist attack”.

They are to take part in mourning ceremonies in the Iraqi city of Karbala which hosts the holy shrine of Imam Hussein, the third Shiite Imam.

“The number of pilgrims who have crossed land and air borders [into] Iraq since September 30 has crossed the 2-million mark, and the figure is expected to cross 2.2 million today,” said Hossein Sajedinia, the deputy Iranian police chief for operations.

He said border exit points are overcrowded, but that people are smoothly crossing through the gates.

He urged pilgrims to use all three border exit points to prevent overcrowding at the Khosravi border checkpoint, which is a popular exit point for Iranians leaving the country.

Arbaeen, which is one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, comes 40 days after Ashura, the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (AS).

Each year, a huge crowd of people flock to Karbala, where the holy shrine of Imam Hussein is located, to perform mourning rites.

Iran to Stop Enemy Far Beyond Country’s Borders: IRGC Chief

General Hossein Salami

IRGC Chief-Commander Major General Hossein Salami said the Iranian military will keep the enemy at bay before they get close to the country’s borders.

“We will not allow the enemy to enter the territory of our dear Islamic homeland and, with our presence kilometres away from the country’s frontiers, will stop the enemy from hatching plots and committing hostile acts,” said General Salami.

He further said the Iranian nation’s resistance against enemies is unlimited, and the resistance will lead to triumph.

“The IRGC has expanded its sphere of resistance, and when the enemy sees that the geographical domain of resistance and the ideology of Islamic Revolution dialogue has expanded, it (the enemy) will have no option, but to leave the scene,” he added.

The top general noted the Iranian nation’s grandeur, dignity, resistance and revolutionary spirit have disappointed the enemy.

“The enemy has had to turn back after seeing our resistance,” he said.

General Salami also touched upon the Yemeni nation’s recent victories against the enemies.

“Yemenis are an oppressed and resistant people that, despite coming under heavy attacks, have overcome their enemies with full force and divine will,” he said.

Why Is Double Gazing Important for Your Household?

Besides cutting the recipients’ regular monthly power bills, these assists to keep their homes warm, specifically in winter months, where heating is the key root cause of enhanced energy expenses, the program which enabled grants of this kind was the “Green Deal.”

The Fluctuation of the Green Deal

The Green Deal was a program produced by the UK government that would offer to lend to individuals so they could mount energy-saving actions in their residences. Each candidate who might meet the demands would be entitled to as much as ₤7,600 in financings. The funds would be made use of to mount one or more energy conserving procedures such as insulation, boiler improvements, roofing solar panels, dual glazing systems, and so forth. The catch was that the financial savings gained from the actions have to surpass the total price of the loan, so applicants would have had to install greater than one attribute. The debt was indicated to be made up of month-to-month repayments via the electricity costs with a fixed rate of interest.

  • You pay back only what you were forecasted to save money on expenses monthly, so there’s no total cost. If the energy bills of you were ₤1,000 a year when you got funding, all being well, your energy expenses and your Green Deal payments will not ever be more than that. So, there’s no rise in price, as well as your home is a lot more effective.
  • Repayments have topped the long-term. The house owner pays the money back over 10 to 25 years.
  • The power business makes repayments for you. You don’t, in fact, repay the loan directly, your energy company does it for you out of your electricity costs. So, to hammer it home, that indicates you need to pay the maximum at most as you did pay when you took out the loan, till the funding’s paid off and then you’ll feel a big benefit.

Sounds Excellent, so What Failed?

While the Green Deal seemed like a blessing to those that were wanting to install some great power conserving systems in their residences, the evident downsides made it “off-putting” for the common citizens. Therefore, in 2015, the program had its funding drew because of bad public engagement.

For beginners, the program advertised its main advantage as being a loan, which made it immediately uninviting for possible recipients. Besides, tackling even more debt isn’t rather the eye-catching prospect, particularly when stated financial debts are for what some might take into consideration non-critical expenses, such as claimed energy-saving items and steps, rather than food, medicine, and other items that are commonly viewed as requirements.

The Green Deal fell short, not because it misbehaved in itself, but rather since it was improperly marketed.

In Conclusion

Double glazing grant is absolutely an improvement if you’re aiming to reduce your energy costs in the future, and simultaneously maintaining your residence cozy as well as warm in the winter months, and fresh in the warmth of summer. The included insulation can likewise block out the irritating exterior sound if you keep your windows closed.

Japanese Photographer’s Works on Show in Tehran

Kenro Izu is a Japanese-born photographer based in the United States. He is the founder of children’s charity Friends Without a Border, for which he has received two awards. He has also been rewarded for his photography.

In 2014, Izu won a World of Children Award. The award has been called the “Nobel Prize for Child Advocates”. It is the only global recognition honouring individuals for serving vulnerable children worldwide.

The interesting point about Izu’s photos is that in addition to the special subjects he chooses, technology and the process of photography and printing also play an important role in these photos.

By personalizing the technical aspects of the work, Izu has created unique photos that capture the audience’s attention.

Part of his fame is also due to the specific processes used in image recording and processing. He also goes beyond the existing photography capabilities and employs customized cameras in addition to the cameras available in the market. At the printing stage, there exist the same features, and Izu’s works are among the most impressive prints in the history of photography.

He has experienced various branches of photography and has excellent knowledge in each of them. Commercial photography, wildlife and fine art, each provide a platform for multiple experiences and the creation of images that have won Izu fame over the years.

The collection on show in Tehran includes photos from his series “Sacred Places”, “Still Life” and “Blue”. Some images show natural locations where human interference is less common. Mysterious and unknown places with religious significance could be seen among Izu’s photos.

In his “Blue” collection we come across two different groups of photos. Flowers and leaves are the subject of his black and white photographs and the inanimate nature (table, glass or porcelain vase, etc.) which are blue photographs. In these photos, inspired by a Japanese writer by Picasso’s period, the photographer’s treatment of simple objects is not that much different from his look at sacred places.

The exhibition has been set up by Hossein Farmani and all collections belong to the Kashan Art Gallery. It will run through November 1 at Tehran’s Nabshi Centre.

Zarif Says Iran Ready for Mediated Talks with Saudi Arabia

“We’ve always been open to discussing anything with Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is our neighbor. We’re going to be here together permanently,” Mohammad Javad Zarif said in an interview with Turkey’s TRT World.

“We don’t have any choice but to talk to each other, and we have been open to talking to Saudi Arabia either directly or through intermediaries,” Zarif noted.

“We’ve never rejected any intermediary… We’ve always been open to mediation, and we’ve always been open to direct talks with our Saudi neighbors,” the top diplomat noted when asked about the upcoming visit of Pakistan’s Imran Khan to Tehran.

Khan will embark on an official visit to Iran and Saudi Arabia as part of Islamabad’s efforts to defuse increasing tensions in the Middle East, diplomatic sources said Friday.

He will on Saturday leave Islamabad for Tehran, where he is scheduled to meet Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Sunday. The prime minister will later in the day travel to Riyadh for meetings with the Saudi leadership.

During Khan’s last visit to Riyadh, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman had asked him to help defuse tensions with Iran, Pakistan’s leading English-language newspaper Dawn reported.

The announcement of the Pakistani prime minister’s visit comes after The New York Times quoted officials of Iraq and Pakistan as saying that the Saudi crown prince had asked the leaders of those two countries in recent weeks to speak with their Iranian counterparts about de-escalation.

In his interview with TRT, Zarif emphasized that Saudi Arabia needs to start good relations with its neighbors if it wants to be secure.

“Buying weapons will not buy you security. If Saudi Arabia wants to be secure, the best way is to end the war in Yemen, to start good relations with its neighbors and the neighborhood, and not to trust the US,” he said.

The top diplomat also referred to a peace plan, officially called Hormuz Peace Endeavor (HOPE), proposed by President Hassan Rouhani during his recent speech at the annual meeting of the UN General Assembly, saying the initiative calls on “all eight countries in the Persian Gulf region to join in an attempt to bring peace through dialogue.”

“We hope it can be discussed and further enriched by our neighbors,” he added.

On Tuesday, Zarif stressed that Iran will be a companion of Saudi Arabia if the kingdom changes course and pursues regional issues at the negotiating table instead of “killing people.”

“Under the circumstances that the Saudis have developed an interest in talking with Iran, if they pursue regional issues at the negotiating table, not by killing people, they will certainly have the Islamic Republic along with them,” Zarif said.
