Two Possible Invasion through Iraq: Tehran Planing Kuwait Invasion as Washington ready to invade Iran

 Iraqi PM Ali Falih Kadhim al-Zaidi has revealed 'US WAR PLANS' discussed with  President Donald Trump for INVADING IRAN through IRAQ.

According Al-Mada report  they also discussed this 'IRANIAN INVASION' of Kuwait with BACKING from Iraqi PRO-IRAN forces.

The PM has reportedly WARNED Iraqi militias against JOINING NEXT US-IRAN WAR — THREATENING ARRESTS BY GOVERNMENT. Iraq could become the road to a US ground war in Iran.

PM Ali al-Zaidi reportedly briefed Shiite leaders on US scenarios, one sending US troops across Iraq into southern Iran

 Another: Iran-aligned militias hit Kuwait from Iraqi soil. He reportedly sent four brigades to Basra to stop that

So can Baghdad stay out of a war fought across its land?

What Baghdad is doing

PM Zaidi says Iraq won't let its land be used against neighbours, and reportedly warned militias of mass arrests. But the militias answer to Tehran, not him

Iran has said:

“Attacking Iran in the middle of negotiations is what is truly illogical and ridiculous.”

Tehran questions Washington’s credibility, pointing to the contradiction between pursuing diplomacy and launching military action.

The US and Israeli war with Iran is far from being over. Report from Israel indicated that the IDF is ready to carry out a unilateral strikes against the Iran's nuclear sites.

Tehran has been up to the US and it's regional allies in this war. As US military are looking for possible ground invasion of the Persia, the Tehran are certainly ready for the worst scenario and may simultaneously invade Kuwait and any other regional allies of the United States including invasion of Israel.

While Trump is pressuring  the Iraqi PM Zaidi , Iranian FM @araghchi has said the US election results have shocked the mediators’ shuttle diplomacy; we need to wait a little.

 According to Iranian FM, There has been no movement over the past few days, and the main reason is the results of the US election, which have ultimately come as a shock to everyone. It will take some time for the situation to calm down and for conditions to become favorable again for mediators to resume their visits. We need to be a little patient.

The US cannot claimed the Monopoly of both the weapons and strategies anymore. Tehran are also on the lookout for counter invasion.

Meanwhile, report by Iranian Observer citing an Iranian journalist Alí Gholhak has it that the US has approved Iran's uranium enrichment plan, per the latest proposal.

The American proposal:

-Iran's 3.67% uranium enrichment on Iranian soil

-Dilution of the 400 kg of 60% uranium in Iran

-Lifting the US naval blockade of Iran,

-Freeing $6–10bn

-Having Iran ending Saudi/Yemen war

-Allowing IAEA inspectors in nuclear sites

-Reopening the strait

Iranians call for nuclear bomb after US-Israeli war as Tehran distributes anti nuclear radiation tablets

New Supreme Leader 

The Persians have been calling for the Islamic Republic of Iran to develop nuclear and atomic weapons following the aftermath of the US and Israel military aggression against the republic.

According to the reports, more Iranian religious leaders, politicians and hardliners are openly demanding for the country to develop nuclear weapons after US and Israeli killed Supreme leader Ali Khamenei in February 2026. 

Iran under Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his fatwa banned the development of nuclear weapons for many years.

According to report by the Times, Iran distributes ANTI-RADIATION TABLETS as it prepares for potential NUCLEAR FALLOUT. IODINE TABLETS handed out to communities NEAR NUCLEAR FACILITIES. Pickaxe Mountain may come under nuclear attacks of the US forces.

The United States is offering up to $20 million and possible relocation for information on Iran’s nuclear program, CENTCOM said Friday. 

The reward covers intelligence on nuclear facilities, equipment, personnel, scientists and their movements.

However, during Friday prayers in Tehran, leaders and members of parliament stated if Iran obtains a nuclear bomb, it won't be attacked again.  Currently, Top military officials confirmed the debate is underway with leadership but no final decision yet.

America, Israel and European counterparts only respect any other country with stockpile of arsenal and Iranians want the country to live up to the expectations that will guarantee the security of the Persians.

As potential US strikes are imminent, Iranian Health Ministry official confirmed the distribution of iodine tablets to residents living close to Nuclear facilities. Accord to officials, this was done during every war within 2-3 km radius of such Nuclear sites. They also added Trump can no longer be trusted and may go through with this crime.

Iran distributed about 180000 iodine tablets in Bushehr near its nuclear power plant.

Iodine tablets only protect the thyroid from radioactive iodine rather than shielding against other radioactive. They are standard precautions used around nuclear sites in wartime and accident incidents.

Tehran is signaling US could strike Pickaxe Mountain with nuclear weapon following months of public threats from Trump. Pickaxe Mountain remains hard target to be destroyed by conventional weapons unless nukes are used.

Meanwhile, Tehran has released a list of countries hosting US military bases that could face attacks in an eventual wider conflict.

Iran Names UK, Germany, France, Italy, Romania, Greece, Portugal & Cyprus Among Potential Targets. They are all NATO Nations.

The warning signals a potentially dramatic expansion of the Iran US confrontation across Europe and the Middle East. The middle east Arab Nations hosting the US military bases have many stories to tell about Iranian retaliatory missiles strikes hitting their territories.

As the hostilities range on, Iran has fired surface-to-air missiles at a U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet over the Strait of Hormuz, while its integrated air defense network has also shot down an American MQ-9 Reaper drone over Qeshm Island,  Iranian military sources and state media confirmed the report.

In an official statement carried by Tasnim, Iran’s military said the Reaper was intercepted and destroyed using “advanced systems” belonging to its unified air defense network over Hormozgan province. The engagements come just days after U.S. carrier aircraft struck Iranian air-defense launchers on Qeshm Island.

While the US has neither confirmed nor denied the report, President Donald Trump has  stood in front of reporters in West Palm Beach and confirmed US strikes on Iran's Qeshm Island.

He said: "I don't want to talk about it. We do minor strikes, but they built a little bit of an anti-aircraft device and we knocked it out in about 15 minutes, maybe five."

As anti radioactive iodine is been distributed, Iran issued Code 100, its HIGHEST alert, for all armed forces, per initial reports as he war that is now more than 8 months old.

American forces set to leave Iraq, leaving opening for Iran

U.S. forces are set to depart from their last bases in Iraq by Wednesday, a move celebrated as a victory by Iran and its allies, who now have deep influence in the country where 4,500 Americans died during more than two decades of war.

Iraqi security experts say the withdrawal — agreed to in 2024 under U.S. President Joe Biden and carried out by Donald Trump’s administration even as it wages war against Iran — could give Tehran and its allies free rein, while also allowing other U.S. enemies, including the Islamic State, to stage a comeback.

It is glaring now more than ever that the regional security is to be primarily handle by the middle east leaders with Tehran playing major roles.

Iran stands to benefit strategically from the coalition’s departure because it removes a military presence that for years acted as a counterweight to Tehran’s influence in Iraq,” said Jasim al-Bahadli, an Iraqi security analyst specialising in studying armed Shi’ite groups aligned with Iran.

He predicted that the pro-Iranian militia groups would not only portray the departure as a victory for their movement, but also “seek to translate that momentum into greater influence over security and political decision making.”

Abu Mojtaba al-Yasiri, a commander in the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an ‌umbrella group of Iran-backed armed factions, described the U.S. withdrawal as “a historic victory for the Iraqi Islamic resistance groups and honorable Iraqis, and a crushing defeat for the American project.”

“On Sept. 30, we will celebrate the turning of a black page in Iraq’s history and the failure of the occupation to impose its will on our country,” he told Reuters. “Iraq has proven that its sovereignty cannot be secured by foreign forces, but by the resistance and the will of its people.”

NOT READY

While the eventual departure of U.S. forces is broadly popular among Iraqis, those who worry about the strength of the Iran-backed groups fear the withdrawal is premature.

“We believe Iraq is still not fully ready to take over the security file at this time,” Abdulrahman al-Zobaie, a Sunni tribal leader in Fallujah, once a bastion of anti-American resistance, told Reuters.

“All Iraqis aspire to full sovereignty, and no Iraqi would dispute that. But I believe that the [U.S.-led coalition] leaving in this way and creating a vacuum is what all Iraqis fear.”

American forces invaded Iraq in 2003 to topple Sunni Muslim dictator Saddam Hussein, and went on to occupy the country, install a Shi’ite-led government and fight a years-long counterinsurgency before withdrawing at the end of 2011.

They returned less than three years later to help Iraqi forces defeat the Sunni militant group the Islamic State in a major war from 2014 to 2017.

Around twice as many Americans died in “Operation Iraqi Freedom” as in the parallel war in Afghanistan, which ended with an abrupt U.S. withdrawal in 2021.

In recent years, Iraq has been the only country to maintain close political and military alliances with both the United States and Iran, which sometimes used Iraqi territory as a proxy battlefield.

Iran offers U.S. a seven-day plan to reopen Strait of Hormuz

 

The Islamic Republic of Iran has offered a seven days plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz water way.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi said Tehran has offered the U.S. a seven-day plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz if conditions are met.

According to the Iran's FM, “Iran has conveyed to the United States, through Qatar, a concrete seven-day plan. If the necessary conditions are met, the strait can be reopened, and normal maritime passage restored within seven days.”

Araghchi said the next step depends on Washington,

“The choice now rests with the United States.”

The reported plan includes a seven-day halt to regional hostilities, the release of at least $12 billion in frozen Iranian assets, lifting sanctions on Iranian oil, and an end to the U.S. naval blockade. Iran would reopen Hormuz on the seventh day of the truce.

“If there is seriousness in the U.S. side to come to a deal and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, everything is now prepared.”

US generals WARN Hegseth Iran WAR becomes UNSUSTAINABLE — WP

Top US military officials are currently concerned that 6-month campaign weakened US's readiness for threats elsewhere, including defending the homeland.

The assessment reportedly described the situation as 'too much for too long'

In 1988's Operation Praying Mantis, the US destroyed half of Iran's navy in 8 hours.

The result? Iran spent the next 40 years mastering asymmetric warfare, naval mines, and missile blockades.

History shows tactical dominance in the Gulf never guarantees supply chain control.

Russia Will Not Attack a NATO Member - Trump

United States President Donald J. Trump on Thursday repeatedly assured reporters that Russia will not attack a NATO member, following CIA Director John Ratcliffe’s visit to Russia to warn Russian decision-makers against such a move. 

President Trump said, “I’ve had good talks with him, he won’t be attacking a NATO territory

Russian MFA Maria Zakharova said any foreign troops in Ukraine that hinder the conduct of the special military operation are to become legitimate military targets.

Russia could target British military facilities in Ukraine and beyond in response to Ukrainian strikes using British weapons.

The America led NATO members have all been fighting a proxy war against Russia using Ukraine land. 

The Patriot missiles interceptors have been drained as a result of Ukraine's war against Russia and the US military aggression against Iran in the middleeast. They entire NATO allies are probably in fear of any Russia's strike against any of the member States.

When asked by reporters whether Russian President Vladimir Putin has agreed to not attack a NATO country, President Trump said, 

“I’ve had good talks with him. He’s not going to be attacking a NATO territory

Trump assured the reports  that Russian President Vladimir Putin will not attack any NATO nation.

So far, I think Russia has behaved quite well, having to do with the Strait of Hormuz.

For everything they do, we do also. That is spying on Russia and China.

We had a good conversation with Putin, he's not planning to attack NATO, Trump said 

Trump: 'Russia’s behaved quite well having to do with Strait of Hormuz'

'For everything they do, we do also'

'What about China, they’re spying… we spy on them too'

Working Theory: Why the FBI is still locking down the Tinubu files after 33 years - Mike Arnold

The FBI is fighting to keep parts of the 1990s investigative file on Bola Tinubu sealed under FOIA Exemption 7(F) — claiming release could “endanger the life or physical safety of any individual.”

Thirty-three years later. That claim only holds if something in those records is still dangerous today.

Here’s the cleanest theory that fits every known fact:

In the late 1980s–early 1990s, a Nigerian-run network was moving **high-purity Southeast Asian white heroin** (“China White”) from the Golden Triangle — primarily sourced and staged in **Bangkok, Thailand** — into Chicago and northwest Indiana.

Adegboyega Mueez Akande ran the organization. His nephew Abiodun Agbele handled U.S. distribution and sales. Lee Andrew Edwards was a major street-level customer in Gary. Tinubu’s Chicago bank accounts were frozen because investigators believed they held laundered proceeds from the same SEA white-heroin pipeline. Agbele got arrested in 1990 selling to an undercover agent and cooperated. Tinubu was interviewed by phone, made partial admissions about knowing the players and moving money, later contradicted himself, fought the civil case, and settled in 1993 by forfeiting $460,000 with no criminal charges.

The working theory is that Tinubu provided information during that process — enough to walk away without an indictment. The records of that cooperation (or the identities it protected) remain in the file.

That is why the Bureau is still invoking a life-safety risk in 2026.

Look at what happened next. In 1995–1996 the U.S. launched **Operation Global Sea**, the first major effort that took down an entire Nigerian SEA-heroin chain from Bangkok source to Chicago streets. It targeted a sophisticated syndicate based in Bangkok that had been moving hundreds of kilograms of the same high-purity white heroin into the Midwest via Europe, Guatemala, and Mexico. Dozens were arrested in Bangkok, Chicago, New York, Detroit, and Pakistan. The Bangkok-based leader, Musiliu Balogun (aka “Olopa” / “The Policeman”), was charged as a primary supplier from Thailand/Cambodia. He stayed a fugitive until 2006, was extradited, and was sentenced in Chicago in 2013 to nine years.

Other follow-on operations (including elements later rolled into Shadow Towers) kept hitting Nigerian groups still importing SEA white heroin from Bangkok into Chicago and other cities.

Most of the original 1988–1993 players are now dead or neutralized: Akande died in 2024, Edwards years earlier. Balogun served his time and is no longer an active kingpin. But the broader Nigerian transnational networks that controlled the Bangkok-to-Chicago SEA white-heroin pipeline never fully disappeared. Residual associates, family members, or successor cells in Thailand and West Africa still operate in the drug trade. Identifying who cooperated in the original Chicago case — or revealing the exact techniques and sources used against the Bangkok suppliers — could still put people at real risk of retaliation.

That is the only explanation that makes the 33-year “endanger lives” claim coherent. The files are not being blocked over ancient bank records. They are being blocked because someone in them was protected, the protection still matters, and the Southeast Asian white-heroin networks that fed Chicago in the 1990s left behind people and structures with lasting lethal potential.

The public record is silent for a reason. The FOIA fight is the government’s way of keeping it that way.

Tehran Rejects Ceasefire, Says The War Must End, Not Paused

Araghchi 

As the 60-days ceasefire between Unites States and Iran comes to and end, Iran's Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday that "Tehran has rejected ceasefire proposals. The war must end, not be paused."

According to Sources, Iran doesn't want to extend the 60-day MOU agreement with the U.S.

This recent war showed that foreign forces and foreign bases not only could not bring security but instead turned into security disruptors.


Iran maintained that countries without U.S. military bases suffered less damage, while foreign bases were unable to defend even their own interests against attacks.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Seyed Araghchi said  the recent war changed how the region sees security with Tehran.


Araghchi says Persian Gulf securities should be collective, led by regional states without outside powers. That’s Iran’s preferred post-war vision.

Meanwhile, Gulf states are signing defense pacts and reassessing reliance on U.S. bases. Everyone is trying to shape what comes next as the old order looks shakier. 

Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan said "The era of relying on the United States is over. American bases are liabilities, not assets. This recent war showed that foreign forces and foreign bases not only could not bring security but instead turned into security disruptors."

Araghchi said, 'You're better of without U.S. involvement,' is the very clever pitch. How can Trump protect us when he is unable even to protect his own country?"


Araghchi sees one “collective” future, but the rest of the region is quietly building several others.

On the Iran's success in terms of negotiations with the US, FM @araghchi said President @drpezeshkian was our main supporter in the negotiation process.


 When the Americans proposed negotiations, President Pezeshkian believed that we should use this opportunity to find a way to end the war.


 The president proposed including @mb_ghalibaf in the negotiating team. Even in the minutes that were prepared, Pezeshkian insisted: “Mr. Ghalibaf’s name must be written as the person responsible for the negotiations so that I can sign it.”

 Araghchi says Israel “was, and remains” the biggest obstacle to implementing the memorandum of understanding between Iran and the US.

Iran's top negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, speaking in Tehran, says that the strategic Strait of Hormuz will not be opened until the United States meets Tehran’s demands, including lifting a naval blockade of the country’s southern ports.


President Donald Trump orders his team to avoid talks with Iran until Tehran is ready to sign an agreement.


The U.S. may be preparing for a significant shift in its military footprint across the Gulf following months of Iranian attacks, The Washington Post reports, citing eight American officials.


Officials say Washington is examining whether maintaining the current concentration of forces in the region remains viable, including the future of bases that suffered heavy damage during the conflict.


The Pentagon is reportedly considering relocating some forces farther from the Persian Gulf rather than restoring damaged facilities to their previous configuration.


The potential move would represent a major change in U.S. regional strategy and would also address one of Tehran’s central demands for any future arrangement over the Strait of Hormuz.


US envoy Jared Kushner says conversations between Washington and different areas of the Iranian government are more “robust” than ever, though the two sides have not yet reached an understanding.


The Trump administration is reportedly considering surrendering U.S. bases in the Gulf and weighing a pullback from the Persian Gulf after Iranian strikes crippled American bases, with allies now questioning whether U.S. forces have become a liability, per The Washington Post.


Eight people familiar with the matter told the Post that the Defense Department is assessing whether to rebuild damaged bases or scale back the U.S. military footprint in the Middle East.


According to a source close to Iranian officials insisted Donald Trump has no viable options beyond accepting Iran's conditions — $300 billion in compensation, release of frozen assets, lifting the naval blockade, and an end to hostilities across all fronts — arguing that U.S. military and economic leverage has been significantly depleted, Iranian outlets.


The source cited three factors behind Tehran's confidence:


The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve: The SPR has fallen to roughly 293.4 million barrels, its lowest level since 1982, reducing Washington's energy cushion during a prolonged Hormuz disruption.


Munitions shortages: The U.S. has reportedly fired more than 1,500 Patriot interceptors, while stocks of ATACMS and PrSM missiles have been heavily depleted. Replenishing inventories could take years.


Political pressure: With the midterms approaching and the war facing domestic opposition, Tehran sees mounting pressure on Washington to contain both the conflict and elevated energy prices.


“Trump has no option but to accept Iran's conditions,” the source said, arguing that Washington cannot escalate without risking further economic damage, but cannot withdraw without conceding Hormuz.

Iran Nemesis: President Trump speaks about North Korea's Kim Jong Un as his best friend

Kim& Trump 

US President Donald Trump speaks about North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un as his best friend. “Kim Jong Un has always treated me with great respect.

We spent time. I understand him. He understands me.

He didn’t like anybody, but I get along with him very well.

What I'm doing is making things safer.”

According to Donald Trump, US will "substantially reduce" joint military exercises with South Korea, citing his "very good relationship" with North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un.

He also noted on Truth Social that South Korea had recently declined to join the US in the "denuclearisation" of Iran.

"These exercises are not only costly, with much of these costs paid for by the United States of America (as usual!), but send a signal that is totally inappropriate and hostile," Trump posted.

I called the president of South Korea. I said, “Would you help with Iran? If you would like, we don’t need help.” He said, “No thanks.”

I said, “What do you mean? We have 39,000 soldiers over there guarding you from Kim Jong Un, and you are not going to help us with Iran? That’s strange.”

Then why are we involved with helping you? Protecting South Korea is costing us billions of dollars.

Seoul said it was reviewing Trump's comments, adding it hoped a favourable relationship between Washington and Pyongyang could lead to meaningful talks. Pyongyang has not yet commented.

Earlier, South Korea said the drills with the US would proceed "as scheduled".

It comes after North Korea this month conducted ballistic missile tests prohibited by the United States

He also noted on Truth Social that South Korea had recently declined to join the US in the "denuclearisation" of Iran.

Trump on Sunday said it was "too late to cancel", as the US and South Korea were due to start their annual military exercises on Monday. "While somewhat unrelated (?), I recently asked the President of South Korea if they would like to join us in the Denuclearization of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and they said, 'No thanks!'"

Trump's announcement came less than 24 hours after he posted an old photograph of himself and Kim from 2019, writing the two were great friends.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Monday, Trump explicitly linked his decision to South Korea's refusal to "give us a little hand" with Iran. We have 39,000 soldiers over there guarding you from Kim Jong Un, your next door neighbour, and you're not going to help us on a very easy military operation in Iran," he said. "That's strange".

"All I want is fairness," he later added.

In its statement, South Korea's presidential Blue House said it would continue diplomatic consultations on US-Korea military cooperation related to the Strait of Hormuz, while discussing details on joint military drills with the United States.

According to a BBC report, experts suggest the walking back of joint military exercises could carry a high cost with relatively little benefit.

"US-South Korea combined defence exercises are essential for military forces to be ready and capable of doing their jobs," said Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at Ewha University in Seoul.

Scaling them back can damage alliance coordination, slow the process of South Korea taking on greater responsibility for its own defence, and weaken deterrence against possible conflicts in Asia.

"The cost savings from downsizing drills are marginal, while the diplomatic benefits for relations with North Korea are doubtful."

Last week, US and South Korean military leaders held a joint press conference announcing Ulchi Freedom Shield.

They said the 11-day event would be similar in scale to previous years, with about 18,000 South Korean soldiers participation 

During the news conference, military leaders also mentioned North Korea's deployment of troops to aid Russia's war against Ukraine.

US military spokesperson Ryan Donald said "our training accounts for that threat", referring to North Korean soldiers returning from the battlefield. About 28,500 American military personnel are stationed in South Korea.

On Friday, North Korea's foreign ministry condemned the joint military drills as "a rehearsal for an aggressive war".

The joint exercises come days after South Korea, the US and Japan detected the second North Korean missile test in days

Pyongyang has accelerated efforts to expand its nuclear and missile programmes since the collapse in 2019 of Kim's high-profile diplomacy with Trump during his first term in the White House.

He became the first ever sitting US president to set foot in North Korea when he visited seven years ago.

For Seoul, Trump's post is a mixed message. On the one hand, they have been requesting Trump engage with Pyongyang and the post raises hope that he might bring Kim back to the table

But Trump is also hinting that he is unhappy with South Korea's unwillingness to make direct military or logistical contributions to the US hostilities with Iran.

He has also expressed displeasure with other allies for their hesitance to get involved in the conflict, including Japan, France and the UK.

Trump's move to downsize joint military exercises with South Korea is not without precedent.

He suspended the exercises entirely in 2018, during denuclearisation negotiations with Kim. He said at the time that the annual drills were "provocative" towards North Korea and stopping the "war games" would save the US a "tremendous amount of money."

The exercises were again scaled back in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic.

It was predicted that President Trump would suspend or scale down US-SK joint exercise, or even reduce the size of US troops in Korea.

Last week, South Korea's president proposed talks with its northern neighbour on officially ending the war between the two, which is technically still active since an armistice was signed in 1953

Trump has noted multiple times in the past that the US is providing security to South Korea without getting much in return.

He has criticised the number of troops it has stationed in the peninsula and the money spent.

This has complicated Washington's relationship with Seoul, which sees the troops as core to its alliance with the US.

Seoul tried to defuse the tension earlier this year, committing $350bn to investing in the US. And last year President Lee Jae Myung described Trump as a peacemaker.

"US Nuclear Strike on Iran Would Lead to Seizure of American Bases Worldwide" - Tehran Warns Washington

Profile Picture: Iran's Supreme Leader 

A Senior Iranian commander and adviser to  IRGC Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi,  responded to questions during an  interview with PBS NewsHour, about the possibility of the United States using a nuclear weapon against Iran. 

He said such a move would be a major mistake. The morning after any nuclear bomb was used, all of America’s military bases around the world would be seized . 

He further  added that “Today, things are  different than World War II,” claiming the people of the world have awakened and would not allow such an act.

If the U.S. were to use a nuclear weapon against Iran, American military bases worldwide could become targets for seizure.

Tehran has consistently maintained that there is no any discussion about ceasefire with Washington. Islamic republic is all out to force Donald Trump to the Islamabad memorandum of understanding which was violated less than 48hours after it was signed. The US President Donald Trump declared it dead during a NATO submit in Turkey.

Today the united states and its military under Trump have been humiliated like never before in history and most especially since the end of second world war. Iranian ballistic missiles shattered all American military bases in the Gulf region on an account if unprovoked aggression against the Persians.

Having lost military, President Trump is now relying on Economic Pressure to force Iran to Capitulate, instead of Bombing.

Prominent Iranian journalists also Admit that Negotiations between Iran and the United States have Stalled

Top advisors have convinced President Trump that the Strait of Hormuz will become Irrelevant within Two Years and that oil will be transported Overland via Pipelines 

Economic pressure and an endless sanctions for more than forty years have proved Washington wrong as it made Tehran self dependent and self reliant.

Iran is preparing to outlast the Trump administration entirely, declaring it will prolong the war with the U.S. until 2029 — because "we have not yet reached our final objective, this is clear," a senior IRGC advisor told PBS.

"We will wait until we get to the next term of the presidency and cause attrition, so that if anyone else wants to attack Iran, they will know there is a cost," said Mohammad Reza Naqdi, senior advisor to the IRGC Commander-in-Chief.

Iran's strategy is now explicit, wait out the clock on Trump's presidency, keep the Strait of Hormuz closed, and bleed U.S. resources until Washington accepts Tehran's terms — or until the next administration takes office.

The Persians are restructuring the country's military for an offensive posture abroad as it threatening to prolong the war until Trump leaves office on January 20, 2029, shifting from defense to offense.

The leader of the Islamic Republic Khamenei Majtoba has approved a sweeping reorganization, appointing hardliners to top IRGC and security posts. "Whenever conditions are favorable, we must be able to take the operation into enemy territory," IRGC adviser Gen. Naqdi said.

"We will wait until the next term of the presidency and cause attrition, so that anyone who attacks Iran knows there is a cost," Naqdi added.

"The IRGC had been tasked under a new offensive doctrine with developing the capability to conduct operations from Iran's borders. We must be able to take operations into enemy territory, into the enemy’s lands, and carry out operations far from our own territory,” Naqdi stated.

“These are characteristics of an offensive doctrine that must be fulfilled. The IRGC has now been ordered to acquire this readiness, to build this capability, so that it can carry out this task when required,” he added.

New Intelligence Warning: Major US-Israeli Ground and Air Invasion Against Iran Imminent, Rapid Military Buildup Across Gulf Bases — Tehran

Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi
arrives in Tehran for talks
with Iranian officialsl
He met the country’s Foreign Minister Araghchi.

Iran has new intelligence warning of a major US-Israeli ground and air operation against Iran, citing a rapid military buildup across Gulf bases, senior Iranian officials attested.




Prof. QMohammad Marandi, an advisor to Iran's negotiation team adds "Trump regime forces in Kuwait, the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Jordan are mobilizing for a potential blitzkrieg, possibly alongside Zionist forces, against the Iranian people," warning "the Islamic Republic stands ready with a swift and crushing response."




Iran has previously warned of a major counter response to a US ground attack, saying "If the United States puts boots on the ground in Iran, we will also launch ground attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain." Iranian analyst Mahdi Khanalizadeh also warned that Iran has plans of "a ground incursion to seize US bases such as Camp Buehring, Camp Arifjan, or Ali Al Salem."




According to Israeli channel 15, Iran launches 2–5 drones every night at US ships and forces in the Strait of Hormuz, and that the US deliberately stays silent and hides the attacks including a recent drone strike on a US base in Kuwait to avoid escalation.




Pentagon has confirmed that the department has leaned on defense contractors to speed up weapons production and deliveries. Although while the military option against Iran proved abortive, the US forces are also experiencing shortage of munitions.




That the department of war embarked on direct engagement with industry leaders to accelerate production is nothing new... But from day one under Secretary Hegseth, this department has been laser-focused on transforming the speed, capability, and lethality of America's defense industrial base, and the 'Arsenal of Democracy,'" Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell told US media.




The Washington Post earlier reported, citing an internal memo, that the Pentagon had ordered contractors to accelerate arms and ammunition deliveries to US forces. Deputy Secretary Steven Feinberg, the paper noted, gave industry just 21 days to submit plans for a major surge in supply rates.




Pentagon spox also added that Feinberg is spearheading a overhaul of what he called a "broken, antiquated, and painfully bloated procurement system" — all to ensure the US can crank out weapons "at the tempo the threat demands."

The urgency stems from the grinding aggression against Iran, where US stockpiles are being drained faster than they can be replenished. NBC News, citing sources, reported that Pentagon leadership recently convened an emergency meeting over munitions shortages, shortly after President Trump personally called Feinberg, the logistics chief, to chew him out over the delays.

More than fifty thousand American service men have been deployed to the middle east for a possible ground invasion of the Islamic republic of Iran.




Already, Gulf energy producers have completely lost faith in the Trump administration and are quietly accepting Iran's permanent control over the Strait of Hormuz — because the alternative, returning to war, would be worse, per WSJ.

Tehran leadership and IRGC commanders have repeatedly said and affirmed that Strait of Hormuz will never returned to the pre US and Israeli unprovoked aggression against Iran.

Gulf states don't like the emerging deal that formalizes Iranian oversight of inbound ships. But they see it as "the least-bad option" compared to further military escalation, which would put their energy infrastructure at risk. The conflict has left the region — vital to global energy security — with no good option for countering Iran.




Crude exports through the Strait have collapsed to 2.2 million barrels per day from 8.5 million a month ago. Pre-war flows of roughly 20 million barrels per day are now a distant memory. Gulf states' alternative export routes are also under attack — Saudi Arabia's Red Sea pipeline hit by Houthi strikes, Egypt's Damietta port struck by drones.




Iranian officials have declared the new Iranian order in the Strait is "irreversible," and the U.S. has no alternative but to accept it or face "costs much greater than in the past." Iran already holds effective control over the strait, with commercial shippers refusing to cross without Tehran's assurance.




The WSJ's conclusion is stark: Gulf states are adapting to a new normal where Iran's veto over their energy exports is permanent. The U.S. has been pushed out of the Gulf militarily. And the alternative to accepting Iran's control — a return to full-scale war — is worse.

Tension as US asks Citizens to vacate the Gulf region as escalations and fresh war with Iran are imminent

United States and State of Israel are preparing for a final war with Iran. S asked citizens to consider leaving the middle east.

The chances of defeating asymptomatic Tehran is on odds.

Tensions with Iran are at a “boiling point,” and US President Donald Trump is closer than ever to approving a significant strike, though no final decision has been made, N12 reported Saturday, citing an Israeli official.

The official said Israel had raised its alert level and was unsure whether Trump wanted it involved from the outset.

According to the report, intelligence presented to Trump included a limited, targeted strike on energy facilities that could significantly affect the Iranian public without triggering a broader rise in global energy prices.

Trump is about to issue the final orders for the massive attack on Iran, per Israeli Channel 13.

Israel has raised its military to maximum alert status this weekend as the US prepares to strike Iran, with Israeli officials saying tensions at their peak and the situation "on the brink of exploding," per Israeli Channel 12.

The U.S. military's top commander in Europe has directly warned the Pentagon he lacks the naval forces to keep defending Israel from Iranian missile attacks, according to The Washington Post, as Tehran warns it has prepared coordinated hypersonic missile strikes and drone swarms against Israel if the conflict escalates, per Gen. Alexus Grynkewich to WaPo.

The destroyers are equipped with SM-3 and SM-6 anti-ballistic missile interceptors, the main ship-based interceptors used against Iranian ballistic missiles aimed at Israel, and have been stretched by operations daily in the Mediterranean, Red Sea, and around Iran with major ammunition shortages and maintenance issues piling up due to the Iran war tempo.

This comes after Iran's ballistic missile attacks have already drained the Arab Dome from Patriot interceptors causing Trump's earlier halt on major escalation.

Without another destroyer in the eastern Mediterranean, Gen. Alexus Grynkewich warned he may have to prioritize defending the U.S. homeland over Israel.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem is urging Americans across the Middle East to consider leaving, warning of flight cancellations, airspace closures, and major travel disruptions as fears of a wider regional war intensify.

Confirmed sources are confirming that Iran has reduced the highly secure and secret base of the US intelligence agency CIA in Kuwait to ashes with a missile attack, in which at least fifty highly qualified CIA personnel have been burned to ashes. Since this attack, the US has stopped the attacks and is again seeking negotiations.

The United States has still not recovered from its surprise and confusion as to how Iran so successfully targeted a base that American officials themselves were unaware of.

An Israeli journalist has written that America is being badly beaten in the Middle East. Its strongest bases are being successfully withdrawn, and America is failing miserably to stop it. The bravery of the Iranians, the discipline of their forces, and the underground weapons stockpiles spread throughout Iran make Iran invincible.

Even Israel and the United States are unable to send troops into Iran together because both are convinced that if they do so, Iran will annihilate them.

Amidst the plans of US/Israel escalating war with Iran, Tehran has prepared a comprehensive plan to completely destroy the Middle East's energy infrastructure, a synchronized decapitation of the world's oil and gas supply, if the U.S. or Israel launches new strikes, per Tasnim News.

The target list includes:

· Saudi Arabia: Ghawar oil field (5%+ of world supply), Abqaiq & Khurais (7M+ bpd)

· UAE: Zakum field & Ruways refinery (1M+ bpd)

· Qatar: North Field & Ras Laffan (20% of global LNG trade)

· Kuwait: Burgan field (2M bpd)

· Bahrain: Sitrah refinery & Al-Mihaj

· Israel: Leviathan & Tamar gas fields

A senior Iranian security official said: "We have prepared a comprehensive plan to respond to any potential American recklessness" — recalling that during the 40-day war, Iran bombed Qatar's most important gas refinery, and Trump apologized on Truth Social.

The U.S. State Department has also sent out a security alert to diplomatic personnel across the gulf states, stating that ‘significant escalation’ with Iran could be expected in the near future.

The alert was issued to all U.S. missions and diplomatic staff in the following countries of the region:

UAE

 Qatar

 Oman

Iraq

Jordan

 Israel

 Kuwait

 Saudi Arabia

 Bahrain

 Egypt

Consequently, American citizens across the Gulf region have been asked to consider vacating the middle east.

US, Israel planing Human Sacrifices with over 5900km land blockade Against Iran

The US and Israel are discussing a full +5900km land blockade of Iran, with the plan requiring cooperation from Iran's 7 neighboring countries Iraq, Turkey, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan to close border crossings, per Telegraph.

This confirms what a US official said yesterday, that Trump is "exasperated" and there was "not a real strategy for how long or what they should do," as many of these countries would not agree to this, given the fact that they are not in favour of working with Israel and the US.

Retired 3-star Lt General Sean MacFarland of the US Army calls a land blockade "almost impossible," adding the US is viewing Pakistan and Iraq as "weak links" despite Iraq's Iran-aligned resistance groups, with all 7 border countries facing their own economic consequences and threat of Iranian retaliatory strikes if they cooperate.

Trump believes he has "reached the end of the road" with his current Hormuz strategy and bombing campaign, with Trump and Netanyahu having discussed 3 options this Tuesday: reaching a deal, continuing the naval blockade, or resuming strikes.

Tehran has never for once come out to face both Washington and Tel Aviv in any conventional warfare but asymptomatic with precision ballistic missiles barrages, land blockade against Iran will only end up as one of the greatest human sacrifice of all time in the face of hypersonic missiles.

US and France help Ukraine target facilities in Russia — report

Russia has authority that the United States and France are directly helping Ukraine to target facilities in Russia federation.

' The assets in the crosshairs include Russia’s oil refineries, depots, and plants of the military-industrial complex, FT admits.

The new Western plot is to try attacking the facilities in such a way so as to keep them damaged for as long as possible, in hopes to make the conflict "more costly" for Russia.

The campaign reportedly has two objectives: limit Russia’s oil trade and reduce its ability to supply troops with weapons.

Another new aspect pointed out by the outlet is that Ukrainian drone units get advice from energy Ukraine’s specialists "on which components are indispensable to refinery operations and which would take the longest to replace" — using the fact both Russia and Ukraine have similar Soviet-designed energy systems.

On June 5, 2024, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that deep strikes against Russian facilities are impossible for Ukraine to conduct on its own. Thus, such attacks transform the West into direct belligerents in the conflict.

 "If we see that these countries are being drawn into a war against us, and this is precisely their direct participation in the war against the Russian Federation, then we reserve the right to act in a similar manner," Putin said.

The war against Russia in Ukraine hg as long been sustained by NATO and EU.

Russian response:

Russia Strikes on Ukraine’s military-industrial facilities to severely degrading the Ukrainian military’s ability to carry out deep strikes inside Russia, military experts tell Sputnik.

 It is quite possible that the strikes were deliberately aimed at dismantling the production chain behind Ukraine's missile programs – Flamingo, Neptune, FP and Grom-2, notes retired Russian Navy Captain First Rank Vasily Dandykin

 Degrading Ukraine’s production infrastructure has become a primary objective, as it cripples Ukraine's ability to target Russia's rear areas, military-political observer Mikhail Onufrienko says

 The strikes will continue — and the heavier they become, the greater the Russian gains along the front line

ESCALATIONS IN MIDDLE EAST: Tehran has no plans to send a delegation to Pakistan or Qatar for negotiations with US

US military launched an attack on an empty
 sports hall in the city of Farashband,
Fars Province, southern Iran.

Iran has no plans to send a delegation to Pakistan or Qatar for negotiations, Nour News, which is close to Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, reported on Thursday, citing an official.


The official denied that US-Iran talks would resume in Geneva, Doha or Islamabad.


“Recent US Treasury action complicated the relatively successful talks between Iran and Oman,” the official was quoted as saying.


Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry said in Thursday US-Iran talks are ongoing to help restore stability, particularly in the Strait of Hormuz.

Islamabad urged both sides to resolve tensions through dialogue and diplomacy, reaffirming its support for a peaceful solution.

The comments come as regional tensions remain high after the US launched fresh strikes on Iranian-linked targets following attacks on American forces.


US military in the middle east launches new wave of strikes on Iran, the centcom hits residential building on Qeshm Island on Wednesday.

"U.S. forces began launching strikes against Iran at 8 p.m. ET today. The strikes are a powerful response to yesterday's attempted Iranian attacks on U.S. forces based in the Middle East." CENTCOM said in a statement.

CENTCOM confirms new strikes, calling it a "powerful response" to Iran's attempted attacks on US forces.


What was hit: Qeshm Island — residential area struck, search and rescue teams working to free 2 people trapped under rubble

Bushehr was also targeted. According to the report, US strikes caused a short power outage in Qeshm by damaging the grid.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards threatened countries assisting the United States with a “harsh response” unless they changed their conduct, according to a statement issued on Thursday.


The IRGC said the Strait of Hormuz would remain closed as long as the US continued making threats and intervening in maritime movements in the region.


It said two oil tankers attempted to leave through what it called an unsafe route south of the strait on Wednesday night under the direction of US aircraft. Both vessels turned back after a major fire broke out aboard one of them, the IRGC said, without providing evidence.


IRGC-affiliated Fars News reported on Thursday that a Qatari LNG carrier passed through the Strait of Hormuz with Iran’s permission, the first such shipment in three weeks.


The vessel transmitted tracking data and used a route designated by Iran, passing without incident and continuing toward international waters, the report said.

As CENTCOM is firing HIMARS missiles from Kuwait to targets in Iran. In response, more Iranians are demanding the full destruction of the Kuwaiti regime for its ongoing aggression and slaughter of Iranians just as it helped Saddam do in the 1980s. According to a report from an Iranian official.

According to AFP report citing Kuwait’s military source, an Iranian strike hit a Chinese firm’s building in northern Kuwait Thursday morning, killing a worker.

A report also has it that following the failure of US air defenses to intercept Iranian missiles, air navigation data shows that German and French military aircraft have headed to US bases in Jordan to assist American forces in intercepting Iranian attacks. This is a clear message of NATO allies readiness to directly involve to help the US in the war against Iran as Britain has already offered it's airbase assets for operations against Tehran.

The US Army has awarded Lockheed Martin a contract worth up to $58.6bn to produce PAC-3 Patriot Missile Segment Enhancement interceptors, marking one of the largest munitions contracts in recent years, reports Reuters. The US has been in shortage of interceptors and weapons. Hence clamouring for ceasefire.

Citing three sources familiar with recent Pentagon data and a new report by outside analysts, CNN reports that the US military's weapons stockpiles, including its inventory of crucial air defense missiles, remain severely depleted following a major flare up of the war with Iran in recent weeks.

America says it is closely watching for any attempts by Russia or China to send weapons to Iran.

This comes amid ongoing U.S.-Iran tensions and recent public warnings from President Trump against such transfers.


Israel has said the US is preparing for something "bigger than anything we have seen before" in the war on Iran, a senior Israeli security official tells Channel 15.


The official adds the US is preparing for a large-scale unprecedented operation against Iran, not just a single isolated response, with Israeli defense circles saying the US is approaching a major counter-response.


However, on the Strait of Hormuz debacles, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu outlined a long-term vision in which the Strait of Hormuz would lose much of its strategic importance by redirecting regional energy exports through alternative pipeline networks.


According to this concept, energy could be transported from the Gulf to the Red Sea, then across Israel to Mediterranean ports, creating a new export corridor that reduces reliance on Hormuz as a global chokepoint.


Supporters of this view argue that such infrastructure would transform Israel from being primarily a strategic ally into an indispensable energy transit hub. They contend that once major oil and gas flows depend on this route, protecting Israel would become increasingly tied to broader economic and energy security interests.


The argument also draws parallels with recent U.S. defense initiatives, suggesting that deeper integration through defense manufacturing, intelligence cooperation, and critical infrastructure creates relationships that are progressively more difficult to reverse. In this interpretation, the combination of military, intelligence, and energy ties strengthens the long-term strategic partnership by making disengagement increasingly costly.

Realities Forced Donald Trump not to expand strikes on Iran

A limited US ground invasion against IRAN is coming

Trump 

All have presumably been sets for further military escalations with Iran in the middle east by the US force, even for a possible group invasion of the Persian but reportedly suspended after 13days attacks and retaliatory attacks by the US CENTCOM and the Iran's IRGC forces .

The report says American President Donald Trump has ordered a halt to attack’s on Iran based on negotiations between Oman and Tehran. Citing American sources, Axios reports there is progress in the negotiations between Iran and Oman regarding the Strait of Hormuz.

On Friday night, the US appeared to pause its bombing campaign on Iran after nearly two weeks of consecutive nights of strikes. Operations are "on a hold," a Department of Defense source told CNN on Saturday


US Vice President JD Vance and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine both raised concerns about escalating the war in Iran as President Donald Trump weighed the possibility during a White House meeting on Friday, a source familiar with the matter and a US official told CNN.

Many of Mr. Trump’s advisers, including Jared Kushner, his son-in-law, say there is a plausible alternative pathway with less risk, e.i continuing negotiations and economic pressure on Iran over a longer period of time."

The US has proposed a temporary ceasefire with Iran to revive the suspended Memorandum of Understanding, possibly including Yemen and the Houthis.

Iran is reportedly unlikely to accept, having rejected all talks this week, while Trump has simultaneously warned of a massive upcoming US attack on Iran.

But what seemed to be of more truth is that Trump decided not to escalate the conflict with Iran, fearing that an extended war could deplete interceptor stockpiles, US officials said.

Already, during the last two weeks of attacks and retaliations, Iran’s IRGC claimed it destroyed 11 U.S. fighter jets and helicopters at regional military bases over the past 15 days. Ammunition depots of the US army in the middle east were targeted and destroyed with ballistic missiles by the Iran's IRGC 

Tehran also said additional aircraft, including an F-15, P-8, C-17 and refuelling planes, were destroyed, and claimed U.S. fatalities exceeded 200. These claims have not been independently verified.

Unfortunately for US leaders, Iran recenty unveiled Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles . A catastrophe in waiting for the US and allies beyond the Persian Gulf region into the European territories where the American Army are allowed bases for operations against Iran.

Therefore, The U.S. concerns are that escalating the war could lead to a serious depletion of the Pentagon’s already declining stockpile of Patriot missiles and other air defense munitions in the Middle East which may result in more casualties and fatalities for the American soldiers.

Specifically, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Dan Caine raised concerns about US munitions stockpiles during a White House meeting on Friday as President Donald Trump considered escalating the war with Iran, CNN reported on Saturday, citing a US official.

General Dan Caine, warns Trump that a widespread escalation of operations against Iran could dangerously deplete the capabilities of the U.S. Central Command in the Middle East, and the President still prefers a diplomatic solution.


The New York Times reported on Saturday that Gen. Caine privately warned that resuming major combat operations against Iran is possible but could dangerously deplete US air defense supplies in the Middle East.

Expanded operations could reduce the availability of Patriot missile interceptors and other air defense systems used by US Central Command. The concerns were among factors considered by President Donald Trump and senior advisers as they weighed further escalation.


Military operations are currently "on hold," and the weapons shortages can only be attributed as the main reason behind the pause in strikes.


Trump said after the meeting that US officials continuing negotiations with Iran but warned that the military could resume or intensify its bombing campaign, while some Persian Gulf countries urged restraint as the administration weighed its options, the report added.


Diplomatic efforts between Iran and Oman aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz are reportedly making progress, although negotiators say more time is needed before any agreement can be finalized, according to two regional sources cited by CBS News.


The discussions are focused on restoring maritime access through the Strait of Hormuz and surrounding territorial waters, a critical route for global energy exports. The report also says the current pause in U.S. military operations is intended to avoid undermining the ongoing diplomatic process as regional mediators continue working toward a breakthrough.


The repeated Ceasefire request by the US in the war initiated by American is a short of strategy for re- equipments of weapons as continuous and further escalations mean fatalities and real blows to the northern hemisphere forces.

Iran’s recent strikes on three Amazon Web Services data centers in Bahrain show a shift in Tehran’s targeting strategy, Fars News reported.

According to Sputnik, the strikes hit AWS nodes in northern, eastern and western Bahrain, placing data-processing infrastructure alongside military bases, ammunition depots and logistics hubs as strategic targets.

Such facilities can support the processing of satellite imagery, drone footage, signals intelligence, radar outputs and other operational data before it reaches US commanders, according to the report.

Even if distributed cloud architecture prevents a full shutdown, damage to these hubs can force rerouting, slow response times, increase costs and reduce operational efficiency during a crisis.

On the much taunted talk with Tehran as regards the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson has said "there has been no change in the status of maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz."

"Progress has been made in our talks with the Omani delegation."

 "We held several rounds of talks with the Sultanate of Oman on Friday and Saturday at the level of deputy foreign ministers."

The Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards said on Sunday that they had forced six vessels to stop in the Strait of Hormuz after issuing what they described as firm warnings, saying they had established "full control" over the strategic waterway.

The Guards' navy said vessels that violated its instructions were ordered to anchor after ignoring initial warnings.

An Iranian General, Abolfazl Shekarchi who is the spokesman for Iran’s army said on Sunday, the US has failed to achieve its goals “in the Strait of Hormuz and in weakening Iran”, adding that “the situation is chaotic and undesirable for America.”

Meanwhile, President Trump has rejected the reports that the US is running low on munitions in its campaign against Tehran. "We have far more munitions than anyone in the world, and far more than we need," he told The Wall Street Journal.

However, the impact of military offensive of the CENTCOM against Iran have reached its limit unless a broader and new offensive to set boots on the Iranian ground which are not likely to be fruitful for the US.

Powerful explosions reported at US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain, Iran says Strikes will continue until total defeat of American troops

A profile picture 

Powerful explosions were reported at the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain following missile and drone attacks, IRNA reported, citing media reports.

The reports come amid continued regional escalation as US bases across the Middle East face retaliatory strikes.

Iran said the Continuous strikes against the US facilities and troops in the Gulf region will continue until full enemy surrender, retribution for Minab and Lamerd children

Mohammad-Bagher Zolghadr, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, stated said  on Friday that "every column of smoke in the region means a US military, security, or financial center has been targeted."

"Our combatants' continuous and targeted strikes are the whips of the Iranian nation's anger, descending upon the hegemonic system. They will continue until the enemy's full surrender and until retribution is exacted for the blood of the oppressed children of Minab, Lamerd, and elsewhere—with God's help."

Beijing Rejects Trump's Claims' Says China supports Iran in protecting its sovereignty, security, and national dignity

Says Iran remains a “comprehensive strategic partner”  

China on Friday vehemently pushed back against President Trump’s claim that Chinese President Xi pledged Beijing would never provide weapons to Iran.


According to the reports, responding to the remarks, China’s Foreign Ministry reaffirmed that Iran remains a “comprehensive strategic partner” and said Beijing supports Iran in protecting its sovereignty, security, and national dignity.


The statement marks Beijing’s first public response to Trump’s assertion and underscores that China is maintaining its diplomatic backing for Tehran despite growing regional tensions as it's foreign ministry directly rejected Donald Trump's claim that Beijing pledged not to supply weapons to Iran, reaffirming its "strong support" for Tehran's sovereignty and security.


US President Donald Trump claimed Chinese President Xi and Russian President Putin told him China and Russia "would not, under any circumstances, give or sell weapons to Iran." Beijing's foreign ministry responded by declaring its support for Iran's "sovereignty, security, and national dignity" — a diplomatic posture that casts doubt on Trump's narrative.

China has previously dismissed reports of weapons transfers to Iran as "baseless smears."

Trump also denied selling weapons to Ukraine to fight Russia. The relationship between Moscow and Tehran can not be overemphasized.


Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Friday met Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov. 

Araghchi welcomed Russia’s “principled stance in firmly condemning the military aggression” of the US and Israel against Iran.
