Kamîran: We begin with the story we also covered yesterday: Iran and America. Today Tehran has put a new proposal on the table.

Ronahî: Yes. Iran has offered America a proposal to end the war and restart nuclear negotiations. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that if America accepts the plan, Iran will fulfil its part within seven days. According to Arab newspapers, part of this initiative is the opening of the Strait of Hormuz within one week.

Ronahî: But US President Donald Trump rejected the plan on his social-media account and said Iran will not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons.

Kamîran: So Washington's answer did not address the seven-day steps; it went straight to the nuclear red line.

Ronahî: And at the same time the Pentagon released new figures. According to the Pentagon, since the start of operations against Iran, which America and Israel began on the twenty-eighth of February two thousand twenty-six, eight hundred sixty-one American soldiers have been wounded.

Ronahî: Between the twenty-eighth of February and the fifth of May, fourteen American soldiers also lost their lives in Iranian attacks.

Kamîran: The number of wounded is far higher than those who lost their lives; it is understood that the cost of war is not measured only by the number of deaths.

Kamîran: From the story we were following yesterday, there is good news today.

Ronahî: The twenty-five residents of Kobani who had been stranded in a mountainous area between the administrative borders of the Kurdistan Region and South Kurdistan have reached Qamishlo.

Ronahî: They had been in that area for nearly a week. From Qamishlo they will continue on their way to Kobani.

Ronahî: In South Kurdistan, International Coalition financial aid to the Peshmerga forces has ended. General Secretary of the Ministry of Peshmerga Bakhtiar Mohammed Sadiq announced that the memorandum of understanding with the US Department of Defense has concluded.

Kamîran: Is this a sudden decision, or was the agreement itself long-term?

Ronahî: The agreement began on the twenty-first of September two thousand twenty-two and was for four years, so its time has now expired. Aid for the months of August and September this year was distributed last Thursday, the twenty-fourth of September.

Ronahî: The ministry has now asked the federal government to fill the gap left by this aid by increasing its own support.

Ronahî: From East Kurdistan and Iran, there are several reports of arrests and violations. The Association of Free Women of East Kurdistan, KJAR, reported that two of its members, Zahra Pirdehghan and Parwin Rasiq Qizilbash, were arrested in Urmia by Iranian security forces in July.

Ronahî: According to KJAR, there has been no news of them for nearly three months. The organisation holds the Iranian regime responsible. This is a statement from one side; Tehran's position is not in the reports.

Kamîran: Three months without contact or news for the families is a long time.

Ronahî: In Shiraz too, according to human-rights defenders, civil activist and artist Sheyda Saberi has been arrested at her home. She is a Lur from Yasuj. She has been taken to the women's section of Adel-Abad prison, but the reason for the arrest and the charges are still unknown.

Ronahî: And there is a new report on kolbers: in the last six months, in the border areas of East Kurdistan, twenty kolbers and workers have either lost their lives or been wounded. According to the report, eighteen incidents were the result of direct gunfire by the forces.

Ronahî: In Daraa, in the Lajat area, this morning several unidentified people attacked the home of a teacher. Teacher Jasim Samara Al-Samal, who was fifty-five years old, was wounded by gunfire and later lost his life.

Kamîran: In his own home… Is it known who did this, or why?

Ronahî: No, the attackers are unknown and the purpose of the attack has not been determined. The teacher was from the village of Shaara in the same area. Interior Security Forces teams have gone to the scene.

Kamîran: From southern Syria we return to Girke Lege, where students are raising their voices over the language of instruction.

Ronahî: Female students say they began their studies in Kurdish and want to continue studying in Kurdish all the way to university. Ilan Ahmed says, 'I have been studying in Kurdish for nine years; if the language of instruction suddenly becomes Arabic it will be difficult for me.'

Ronahî: Sidra Hussein also says she has studied in Kurdish from the first grade and has now reached the tenth grade, and asks how she is supposed to continue in Arabic.

Kamîran: For a student who has studied in one language for ten years, changing the language halfway is not an easy thing.

Ronahî: We close with two farewells. Writer and poet Nisrin Telo lost her life in Norway today due to illness. She was born in Qamishlo and was the daughter of Abdulqadir Telo, who was a member of the Khoybun Association. She wrote many poems and stories.

Ronahî: Journalist Najib Chapraz, who had worked as a journalist in Gever since nineteen ninety-one, also lost his life at his home in Esenyurt due to a heart crisis. He was born in Gever in nineteen sixty-seven and will be buried in the city cemetery.

Kamîran: One with the pen of poetry, the other with the pen of news; both worked for years on the same culture.
