Iran announces it will now attack US bases in the region if any more commercial vessels continue to transit the US-backed southern Omani corridor of the Strait of Hormuz.

"This is a serious warning," the statement adds. #Iran

Iraq will begin gradually closing all its border crossings with Iran in the coming days, starting today with al-Sheib, which is being completely shut indefinitely under orders from PM Ali al-Zaidi as a precaution due to fears of a US-Iran escalation, per an Iraqi official to Al Jazeera.

Pakistan closed its Taftan and Gabd-Rimdan crossings with Iran and suspended commercial trade a week ago.

Both of Iran's neighbours are now sealing their land borders. #Iran

Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei has refused to meet Pakistan's Army Chief Asim Munir, who is in Tehran now to help reach a US-Iran deal "breakthrough," per Tabnak.

Iran says Munir's visit was almost ruled out until Sunday evening, then suddenly finalised by Monday noon as oil prices rose toward the $110 resistance level, per a senior source to Fars.

The source said earlier mediator visits to Tehran had helped bring prices down without any progress in negotiations, and that this one is intended to reassure markets rather than signal a breakthrough.

Brent crude oil rose above $110, its highest since May 19. #Iran

BREAKING NEWS: 🇮🇱 NETANYAHU SAYS IRANIAN REGIME WILL DISAPPEAR FROM THE WORLD

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a stark warning about the future of Iran’s Islamic Republic, declaring that the regime will ultimately disappear as tensions between Israel and Iran continue to escalate.

➡️ Netanyahu described Iran’s leadership as fighting for its survival and asserted that the regime’s position has weakened significantly.

➡️ His remarks reflect Israel’s stated ambition to bring an end to the Islamic Republic’s rule, extending beyond efforts to weaken Iran’s military capabilities.

➡️ The statement comes amid continuing regional tensions involving Israel, Iran and armed groups allied with Tehran.

➡️ Netanyahu framed the confrontation as an existential struggle, using the phrase “either they or we” to describe the stakes.

➡️ However, his prediction about the Iranian regime’s future remains a political assertion, not a confirmed outcome. Iran’s political future remains uncertain.

The remarks underline the widening divide between Israel and Iran, raising further questions about regional stability, the prospects for diplomacy and the potential consequences of continued military confrontation.

BREAKING: Iran is now openly considering forcing Google, Meta and other tech giants to obtain permits, undergo technical inspections and pay “sovereignty fees” for undersea internet cables passing through Iranian waters, per Tasnim News.

Major cable systems including FALCON and GBI cross the Gulf, turning the Strait of Hormuz into a strategic digital chokepoint. More than 99% of international data traffic travels through undersea cables, giving coastal states leverage over critical global connectivity.

The move follows Mohsen Rezaee’s threat to destroy undersea cables, data centers and AI facilities across the region if the U.S. and Israel resume the war, claiming those assets are worth over $2 trillion. Iran is now threatening the Gulf’s digital infrastructure with destruction — while also seeking to charge companies for access. #Iran #Technology

Donald Trump has voiced concern that his 20-year-old son Barron is facing threats from Iran simply because he is the president’s son. Iranian state media recently aired a video highlighting locations linked to Barron and referencing a multimillion-dollar reward, prompting the U.S. Secret Service to confirm it is aware and investigating any perceived threats.
Iran has pushed back sharply, pointing to the death of Zahra Mohammadi Golpayegani, the 14-month-old granddaughter of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. She was killed in the February strikes that also claimed Khamenei and other family members, strikes Iran attributes to actions involving the United States under Trump. Officials have framed the targeting of Iranian leaders’ families as the real outrage while dismissing some reports of active plots against Barron as fabricated or exaggerated.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has taken a firm line amid the broader conflict, stressing Iran’s readiness for both diplomacy and continued confrontation while rejecting pressure tactics. The exchange underscores how the ongoing war has pulled the families of both sides into the rhetoric of retaliation and grief. #Trump #Iran

US President Donald Trump on Thursday warned that Iran would face a “very hard” US response if investigators establish that Tehran was behind the Flydubai incident.

“Oh they’ll be hit, very hard, don’t worry,” Trump said when asked what would happen if an Iranian link were confirmed. “You just ask them. They know what happened. They’ll be hit very hard.” #Trump #USA #Iran

IRAN WARNS IT COULD STRIKE FIRST

Iranian Army spokesperson Brig. Gen. Mohammad Akrami-Nia says Iran will NOT simply wait to absorb an enemy attack.

According to his statement, if Iranian intelligence determines that an enemy strike is being prepared, Iran could launch PREEMPTIVE OPERATIONS to neutralize the threat before the attack actually happens.

The warning raises the stakes even further as tensions remain high.

If Iran believes an attack is imminent, it says it may choose to strike first. #Iran

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says;🇮🇷

"Egypt charges between $200,000 and $700,000 per transit through the Suez Canal; for large container ships or oil tankers, this can exceed $1 million."

Turkey charges transit fees for the Bosphorus Strait in Istanbul.

Canada charges fees for using the St. Lawrence Seaway.

Panama charges between $100,000 and $450,000 per transit; passage for large New Panamax ships through the Panama Canal can cost up to $500,000.

The US charges fees for using the St. Lawrence Seaway.

Meanwhile, Iran has refused to impose fees for passage through the Strait of Hormuz for decades. It has kept transit free! And it has done so despite all the smear campaigns, sanctions and isolation it has faced. Yet you still expect me to believe that Iran is the "guilty party" here? #Iran

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Sunday Iran could have “nothing left to trade for anything” within two weeks as Tehran completes its remaining oil deliveries to China.

Speaking on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures, Bessent estimated that only about 15 million barrels of Iran’s oil remained out for delivery as the US blockades the ports.

“They are going to make their final deliveries of oil to China, and then they will have nothing,” he said.

Between 15 million and 22 million barrels of oil are now moving through the Strait of Hormuz each day, Bessent said, compared with about 20 million before the conflict.

“The score is the United States, one billion — more than one billion barrels have gotten out — Iran, zero,” he said.

He described the purpose of Operation Economic Outcast as ensuring Iran adheres to the terms of any potential future deal. #Iran #China

BREAKING UPDATE: Intelligence received by the United States indicates Israel may resume large-scale attack against Iran in the near future.

US intelligence believes Israel is trying to draw Iran into a 'TRAP' that would make Iran appear responsible for starting the escalation.

Israel is stockpiling ammunition and redeploying military units, while the home front command raises its readiness for a potentially wider war.

Meanwhile, JP also reports that Israeli intelligence detected an attempt by Iran to restart its nuclear program at Pickaxe Mountain.

China Rejects More Sanctions On Iran As Path To Peace
China has made clear that additional sanctions and pressure on Iran will not end the Middle East crisis. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian stated that such measures fail to resolve the issue and urged all parties to pursue political and diplomatic solutions instead.
Washington has pushed for broader isolation of Iran’s economy, including calls for Beijing to join the effort. China continues to reject unilateral sanctions, insisting they lack international legal basis and only heighten tensions. Beijing maintains its economic cooperation with Tehran, particularly in energy trade, while vowing to safeguard its own interests against any secondary measures.
The stance comes amid ongoing regional instability linked to the Strait of Hormuz and broader conflict. China positions itself as favoring dialogue and de-escalation over economic warfare, arguing that sustained pressure risks greater instability for the region and global supply chains. #China #Iran

Iranian Official Issues Strong Warning to Regional Leaders, Saying Iran Could Disrupt Airport Operations in Neighboring Countries That Enforce the U.S. Flight Ban on Iranian Airlines.

Iran’s Supreme Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei, speaking to Iranian state television, warned that if any regional country joins the United States in enforcing the flight ban on Iranian airlines, Iran could target its airports and disrupt their ability to operate flights.

Rezaei warned that Iran would take action against countries enforcing the U.S. flight ban on Iranian airlines, saying Tehran would not stand by and watch such measures being implemented.

The warning is coming after the United States announced secondary sanctions targeting Iran, including restrictions on Iranian commercial flights worldwide and penalties for companies that facilitate aviation services for Iranian airlines. #Iran

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Iranians on Thursday that “the power of the people will overcome the people in power,” predicting political change in Iran during his address to the UN General Assembly.

“I want to give you the good news,” Netanyahu said. “It’s only a matter of time that in Iran something incredible will happen. The power of the people will overcome the people in power.”

Netanyahu also criticized delegates who walked out during his speech and protesters outside the UN, accusing them of remaining silent over Tehran’s crackdown on dissent.

“Where were you when the Iranian tyrants butchered and maimed tens of thousands of unarmed Iranian civilians?” he said, also accusing his critics of failing to speak out over the persecution of Christians in Iran and elsewhere in the Middle East.

He also held up a Starlink device during his UN address, accusing Tehran of fearing Iranians’ access to uncensored information and saying he would leave the device for Iran’s delegation. #Iran #Israel

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has told reporters that he does not know how Iranian representatives at the United Nations would return home after U.S. sanctions effectively halted the vast majority of international flights in and out of Iranian airports.

Bessent said that, with an estimated 80% to 90% of international flights from Iran suspended following U.S. secondary sanctions, he could not confirm how Iranian UN delegates would be able to return home.

Note: The United States has warned that any foreign entity providing fuel, landing services, catering, maintenance, or ticketing services to designated Iranian aircraft could be cut off from access to the U.S. dollar financial system.

Bessent reiterated the United States readiness to take aggressive measures against anyone facilitating prohibited aviation activity with Iran.

What’s your view on this? Do you think the Iranian delegation will be able to leave the United States despite the restrictions on international flights to and from Iran?

Do you think the U.S. intends to prevent the Iranian delegation including the president, foreign minister and other senior officials from returning home?

What’s your opinion on this? Do you think Iran delegation will still leave the United States even with the ban on international flights in Iran airport.

Do you think US is planning to hold hostage the Iranian delegation which involves the president, foreign minister and other senior government officials. #Iran #USA

🚨Trump told Axios Thursday that he's approaching a critical juncture in the Iran war over whether to restart massive attacks in an effort to bring the conflict to a close.

"I have a big decision coming up. Do I want to go in and annihilate them [the Iranian regime] or do I not? It's a big decision. Anything could happen with me."

Trump is meeting with gulf countries on Tuesday to discuss the war and what he plans to do about it.

As CEO’s of banks and energy companies now join the call for the war to stop by any means.

Trump is at a real crossroads.

He might be trying to make it sound like he’s holding the cards and is the big shot caller.

He only really has 2 options and they are both kind of the same.

He either goes full in on a land invasion he’s ordered his troops to prepare for. A adventure we haven’t seen the likes of since the invasion of Iraq.

Or call it quits and concede to Iranian demands. Reigning in the occupation and forever changing the face of the Middle East. A result he will come to inevitably should he try to invade Iran. #Trump #USA #Iran

South Korea declined sending military to support US war in Iran despite President Trump's pressure.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung has ruled out sending troops or military assets that could involve South Korea in the ongoing war with Iran, despite continued calls from Washington for greater support.

Lee said Seoul’s principle of avoiding involvement in the conflict will remain unchanged.

South Korea is, however, considering limited measures to protect its commercial vessels, oil shipments and citizens around the Strait of Hormuz.

The decision comes after weeks of U.S. pressure on Seoul to contribute to efforts in the region. #SouthKorea #USA #Iran #Trump

China is urging the United States and Iran to step back from further escalation and return to serious negotiations, warning that the continuing conflict benefits no one.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called on both countries to remain rational, exercise restraint and resume meaningful consultations based on their earlier agreements. Beijing also wants the Strait of Hormuz fully reopened, arguing that disruption along one of the world’s most important energy routes is threatening oil supplies, global trade and economic stability.

China has significant interests in ending the crisis. It is Iran’s largest trading partner and a major buyer of Iranian oil, while its economy depends heavily on stable shipping routes through the Middle East. Beijing has also reportedly used its influence to press Tehran to reduce regional tensions.

The message is simple: continued military action risks more deaths, higher energy prices and wider instability, while diplomacy still offers a possible way out.

Should Washington and Tehran accept China’s call and return to negotiations before the conflict becomes even more dangerous? #China #USA #Iran

Trump Warns Of Far Harder Strikes If Hormuz Stays Closed As Iran Says The Strait Opens Only After Its Demands Are Met
Tensions over the Strait of Hormuz are flaring again. President Donald Trump has warned that Iran will face much heavier military pressure if the vital oil route is not reopened, while Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has pushed back that the waterway will open only after Tehran’s conditions are accepted — not because of social media posts. Iran has tied reopening to an end to U.S. military pressure, the lifting of the naval blockade, sanctions relief, release of frozen assets, and compensation for war damage. Washington insists traffic can move and that the strait remains open with or without Iranian cooperation. The standoff matters because this narrow passage normally carries a huge share of the world’s oil. #USA #IRAN
