According to the Iranian leaders, Trump is saying something every day. One day he wants to destroy Iran, another day he says we are friend of Iran.
"One day he says he accept us. Another day he says he doesn't accept us."
"So we are not sure what kind of statement we should, you know, accept and proceed based on which."
The US military and IDF have met their match in the middle east as all their military and economic pressure armed at crossing Tehran proved abortive.
NATO Nations have failed to participate in the aggression against Iran weighing the dearly consequences.
Arab nations hosting the US military bases are dancing to the tunes of Iranian ballistic missiles for allowing US to use their airspace in the operations against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
"We have no problems with the UAE. We have no problem with any of the regional countries. "
"We have a problem with the American bases located in these countries and from which they are attacking our country."
*The UAE, the Emiratis and other countries of the region are our brothers. We have been living together for a long time and we have had trade. We have supported each other. "
"So this is the US which has come here and established bases, and from those bases they martyr our children, they attack our infrastructure and target our leaders, commanders and people. "
"In fact, the problem is that the friendly and neighboring countries should not allow enemies to utilize their soil to attack our country."
We are not in war with Saudi Arabia and the Houthis have their own problems.
Rhetorics by the US President have not deterred the IRGC from retaliatory attacks against the US military as the Strait of Hormuz remained closed.
President Masoud Pezeshkian said America claims to defend human rights. They want to starve our people to death or bring about some other problems for them.
They want us to yield and surrender. This is not humane. This is the most savage thing they can do.
They are blocking the routes of medicines and goods. We are doing business and trade, but they block our money. What is the logic behind that? The U.S. is doing propaganda. It is just propaganda.
If we were seeking nuclear weapons, we wouldn’t have become a member of the NPT. Now they are bringing about alibis and pretexts to attack our soil.
With their technologies, actually they are the real terrorists in the world.
You look at Israel and America. No difference what they are doing in Syria, in Lebanon, in Gaza, Iraq, Qatar, even in Iran.
They assassinate anybody they wish, and then they claim that these people are terrorists. So it’s a weird world.
They kill people very easily for a single person. They kill a whole family and they destroy a whole building, then they say they killed a terrorist.
They are real terrorists. They are state terrorists.
Earlier, President Pezeshkian speaking during the BRICS submit in Delhi, India, said Sustainable security depends on full respect for national sovereignty and rejecting the model of “security for some and insecurity for others.” Preventing the misuse of countries’ territories to threaten their neighbours is an inviolable principle.
He said BRICS must stand against the normalization of attacks on civilian infrastructure and peaceful nuclear facilities.

Tensions have reached a boiling point with Iran and its allied groups retaliating.
Following an attack on the US base at Al-Asad, Iran launched ballistic missiles at US positions in Jordan in retaliation. According to Jordan, its air defenses intercepted eight missiles.
In short, human collateral damages was reported as this marks a new phase of escalating US-Iran tensions; videos of missile launches from Tehran are being linked to this retaliatory strike.
Kuwait and Bahrain are not spared by the Iranian ballistic missiles.
Also, Iran is striking U.S. military positions in Bahrain and Kuwait with drones and missiles.
Multiple explosions are being heard as the attacks unfold, marking another major escalation against American forces across the Gulf.
Iranian media claims that a US warship attempting to enter the Strait was targeted by Iranian cruise missiles. Reports say the US destroyer attempted to seize control of the waterway, prompting the Iranian Navy to retaliate.
However, US officials have denied reports that the warship was damaged in a missile attack, and the claim has not been independently confirmed.
Iran IRGC has also claimed to have targeted a US vessel with a cruise missile near the Strait of Hormuz.
This action is being described as part of a growing US-Iran military confrontation over control of the Strait.
Direct confrontation between the two sides in Hormuz has intensified.
Iran maintained that U.S. strikes on civilian areas are brutal war crimes. Iran exercised its inherent right of self-defense and struck the bases that were the origin and support of this aggression
The US carried out airstrikes on southern Iran, killing at least 4 civilians, injured more than 70 others.
"Iran’s armed forces responded with missile and drone attacks on US bases in the region, causing heavy damage and casualties among American commanders and soldiers."
"These operations will continue until the US regrets its actions."
"Any country that cooperates with the US military will face serious consequences.Victory comes only from God, the Mighty and Wise." IRGC said in a statement
According to Iran, this is the same MQ-9 drone that was shot down during the US operation. Its estimated value is around
Tehran said the MQ-9 Reaper displayed today is a clear demonstration of what awaits any foreign military asset that enters Iranian-controlled airspace without authorization.
"This is a $30 million U.S. combat drone, designed for long-endurance surveillance and precision strikes."
"Iran have recovered and displayed it for one reason, to make our position unmistakable.
"Iran will defend its airspace, and no American aircraft should assume it is beyond our reach."

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.

Several boats were reportedly warned multiple times by U.S. Navy forces, but ignored the warnings and continued their passage.
The move comes as Washington and Tehran continue their competing claims over who controls the strategic waterway.
According to Iranian sources and video footage, Iranian paramilitary volunteers rushed to the strait of Hormuz, after Trump announced that America controls the strait. Despite the US Navy threats and warnings some of the boats continued to sail.
Tehran source also indicates that ships lineup in the Strait of Hormuz unable to pass by.

Russia demonstrated one of its mobile nuclear missiles in action as it was fired from Plesetsk in northern Russia and traveled around 5,700 km across the country to the Kura test range in Kamchatka.
They never said exactly which missile it was, but the launcher and setup look like an RS-24 Yars, one of its nuclear missiles that can be driven around instead of sitting in a silo.
The training warheads reportedly made it to the target as there was no actual nuke on it. That’s why these things are on trucks. They move around, find a spot, fire, and get out of of the spot.
Absolutely, it was a test of the strategic missile system’s performance however , every such launch also serves as a reminder that Russia’s nuclear forces remain operational and combat-ready.
According to the MOF, all assigned tasks were fully executed. The Strategic Missile Forces trained the redeployment mechanism to a remote area for an intercontinental ballistic missile launch battery, including preparation and execution of the launch.
The purpose of the launch was to confirm the tactical, technical, and flight characteristics of the missile system.
According to Moscow Times, the latest launch comes less than a week after unverified reports claimed that Ukrainian drones targeted Plesetsk, Russia’s only military spaceport.

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

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.

Among the targets for missiles strikes is Israel's Ben Gurion Airport which is currently on fire, according to a report.
An Iranian missile reached and struck an underground bunker situated beneath a building in Tel Aviv; in other words, the attack is claimed to have targeted not just the building itself, but also the secure facility located beneath it.
However, independent confirmation of the claim indicated that it was a "first in history" event—indicating that Iranian missiles damaged protected or military installations in the vicinity of Tel Aviv.
Also Iran claims that Israel's Nevatim airbase—where F-35I fighter jets and other military aircraft are stationed was targeted —causing heavy damage with missiles. However, there is no independent confirmation yet that the airbase was completely destroyed, therefore, for now, remains an Iranian claim.
Unconfirmed report aledged that Iran's hypersonic missiles that targeted an Israeli security meeting in Tel Aviv, killed more than 10 Israeli generals.
It is claimed that these officers were planning an attack against Iran's Supreme Leader.

The recent Offer was brought to Iran by the Pakistani Military Chief
The Iranian Political System may see this as an Effort by Trump to win the Midterm Elections.
However, alternative report from Washington affirmed that there is no any ongoing or schedule talk between the US and Ira.
The Trump administration is not engaged in talks with Iran and none are currently scheduled, Al Jazeera Arabic reported Tuesday, citing a White House official who requested anonymity.
“As President Trump said, there are no talks or discussions currently under way or scheduled with Iran,” the official told Al Jazeera.
“The naval blockade remains firmly and effectively in place, the Strait of Hormuz is open, and the sea mines have been removed or destroyed,” the official added, according to the report.
Tehran has also said it has set out its conditions and position on the Strait of Hormuz to Pakistan for delivery to the United States, the IRGC-affiliated Tasnim news agency reported on Tuesday, citing a source close to the Iranian negotiating team.
The source said Pakistan's army chief, Asim Munir, who visited Iran on Monday, did not carry a threat or similar message from Washington and instead sought to help reopen space for negotiations.
"Iran's positions were clearly conveyed to the Pakistani side," the source said.
The source said one of Tehran's conditions was for the United States to return to what was described as the Islamabad memorandum and implement its provisions.
The Pakistani side was seeking to pass those conditions to Washington, Tasnim cited the source as saying.
According to Sputnik, Pakistan's Army Chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, completed a one-day visit to Tehran, reaffirming Islamabad's central role in mediating between the US and Iran. The mission focused on de-escalating hostilities and reviving stalled negotiations.
Accompanied by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, Munir held talks with Iran's top leadership, including President Masoud Pezeshkian, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, and Major General Mohsen Rezaei — the Supreme Leader's personal representative and Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), along with other senior officials.
According to Pakistan's military (ISPR), discussions centered on preventing escalation, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and achieving a swift end to the conflict. Iranian officials praised Pakistan's constructive mediation. Naqvi called the exchange "very constructive," while Tehran described the visit as "highly fruitful," citing "valuable diplomatic achievements" to be disclosed later.
A key matter was reviving the "Islamabad Memorandum"—the landmark agreement brokered by Pakistan on June 17. However, its 60-day framework expired in mid-August without renewal.
Beyond mediation, the visit boosted bilateral ties. Iran noted relations are at "one of the best stages" in their history, with both sides committed to expanding cooperation. The nations reaffirmed their goal of increasing trade from over $3 billion to $10 billion and advancing cross-border infrastructure and energy connectivity.
This was Munir's third visit to Iran this year, underscoring Pakistan's persistent diplomatic engagement. Though specific outcomes remain undisclosed, both sides express cautious optimism about the negotiation process.

Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezai has issued warning to gulf countries.
Iran’s top security official warned regional countries against taking part in Trump’s economic pressure campaign, arguing that such policies could further destabilize the region and encourage more countries to seek nuclear weapons.
Trump’s recklessness, with his attacks on Iran, increased desire of people around the world to acquire nuclear weapons esp when they saw that membership in the International Atomic Energy Agency & NPT was ineffective in preventing attacks from the US.” says Iran’s security chief.
“America has waged economic war against itself, nit the Persians” said Major General Rezaei
US President Donald Trump’s war of aggression against Iran has placed a heavy debt burden not only on the American people, but also on US allies such as Japan, Major General Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, told IRNA.
💬 “He came with the campaign slogan ‘Make America great again,’ but what has he made great? He has made their debts great,” Rezaei stressed.
The US now has to borrow at a rate 3.7 times higher than in 2020, meaning an additional $3.7 billion in annual costs for every $100 billion of debt, the major general highlighted.
He also pointed to Japan, saying the rise in its 10-year bond yield to around 3% marks the end of the US “free ride.”
Rezaei said the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement, signed by Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan, was a sign that the United States had told them it wanted to leave the region.
“The United States told them, ‘Goodbye, we are leaving,’” Rezaei said in a televised interview.
Rezaei added that Iran supported broader Islamic unity and said Iran and Egypt should be founding participants in any such regional alliance.
“Our friends come and say, ‘We have made a pact, come and approve it.’ What are we supposed to approve? We don’t even know what you signed,” he said.
We will defend Iran resolutely and will not allow American forces to set foot in Iran.
I advise the Americans not to deploy any additional forces, because we will strike them.
The Americans have completely lost hope in military attacks and now imagine that an economic blockade can support their military efforts.
Netanyahu has promised Trump that if Iran is placed under an economic blockade for six months—or even two or three months—it will surrender.
The world has realized that Trump’s bluster is empty talk.
Iran has learned over the years how to overcome sanctions and continue selling oil.

Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezai has issued warning to gulf countries.
Iran’s top security official warned regional countries against taking part in Trump’s economic pressure campaign, arguing that such policies could further destabilize the region and encourage more countries to seek nuclear weapons.

“America has waged economic war against itself, nit the Persians” said Major General Rezaei
US President Donald Trump’s war of aggression against Iran has placed a heavy debt burden not only on the American people, but also on US allies such as Japan, Major General Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, told IRNA.
💬 “He came with the campaign slogan ‘Make America great again,’ but what has he made great? He has made their debts great,” Rezaei stressed.
The US now has to borrow at a rate 3.7 times higher than in 2020, meaning an additional $3.7 billion in annual costs for every $100 billion of debt, the major general highlighted.
He also pointed to Japan, saying the rise in its 10-year bond yield to around 3% marks the end of the US “free ride.”
Rezaei said the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement, signed by Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan, was a sign that the United States had told them it wanted to leave the region.
“The United States told them, ‘Goodbye, we are leaving,’” Rezaei said in a televised interview.
Rezaei added that Iran supported broader Islamic unity and said Iran and Egypt should be founding participants in any such regional alliance.
“Our friends come and say, ‘We have made a pact, come and approve it.’ What are we supposed to approve? We don’t even know what you signed,” he said.

Iran's military chief visited an underground ballistic missile production facility, showcasing what he called a major ramp-up in weapons output since the war began with United States and the State of Israel.
Major General Ali Abdollahi is the current Chief of the General Staff of the Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces. He was appointed to this top military position on August 10, 2026, by Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei
Ali visiting the underground site said, by God's grace, they have been able to produce equipment far better than in the past, with greater capabilities and superior quality.
In terms of quantity, they have managed to scale production significantly higher than before.
State media highlighted a threefold increase in kamikaze drone production since the start of the conflict and claimed Iran now ranks among the world's top 10 missile powers and 6th in drone capability.
This is in line with what another senior military adviser to Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei said, that Iran’s armed forces should be prepared to respond preemptively to future threats rather than wait to react after an attack.
Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi said in a message marking Defense Industry Day that Iran’s military response should not be “passive,” but instead “preemptive, powerful and calculated” to deter its adversaries from attacking.
Safavi said the recent wars with the United States and Israel had demonstrated the need for Iran to equip its forces for both asymmetric and full-scale conflict and develop what he described as a more active form of deterrence.
Iran’s army spokesperson saying the country’s military doctrine is shifting from defensive toward offensive, including preemptive operations and responses that could exceed the scale of an initial attack.
US President Donald Trump on Friday said Iran could be destroyed within minutes if he gives the order, as American leader declared Strait of Hormuz as American territory.

"This is despite the fact that during the 12-day war, some limited and specific parts of our defense industry were also among the targets of the enemy's strikes."
The US claimed it was degrading Iran's military capabilities. Meanwhile, US interceptor stockpiles are down by 65%.

Iran's parliament Speaker was in Iraq where memorandum of understanding on security cooperation was signed between Iran and Iraq.
Gulf states are now quietly reaching out to Iran for new security arrangements — a direct consequence of the U.S. war against Iran, which has left America's allies questioning whether Washington can still protect them, Iran's Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf said.
"We've received numerous messages from neighboring countries about shaping new security arrangements and economic cooperation in the region," Ghalibaf said. "The United States put the security of every single one of its allies at such risk — through bullying and pure disregard for their interests for the sake of Israel — that they briefly saw their entire existence on the line."
Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain are now privately reaching out to Iran for new security arrangements, sending multiple messages almost daily to Iran out of concern that the US cannot protect them anymore due to interceptor shortages and the vulnerability of hosted US bases, Iran's Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf and a senior Iranian source in Tehran familiar with the matter can confirm.
