ISLAMABAD - National Assembly Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq on Thursday condemned Israel’s recent attack on Iran, called it a violation of international law and reiterated Pakistan’s support for the Iranian government and people during a meeting with Iranian Ambassador Reza Amiri Moghadam at Parliament House.

Donald Trump zou Iran ‘absoluut’ opnieuw bombarderen, als blijkt dat het land nog steeds uranium kan verrijken tot het geschikt is voor kernwapens. En China bevestigt dat een voorlopige handelsovereenkomst met de Verenigde Staten rond is. Volg alle ontwikkelingen in ons liveblog.

In the early 2010s, Iran believed that a war waged against it by Israel, which would pull in the United States, was an inevitability. At the time, American newspapers were warning that Israel was on the verge of bombing Iran, the IAEA was working hand in glove with the Americans to increase pressure on the Persians, and the country was being suffocated by sanctions that were only looking to get worse. The Iranians, according to political analyst Trita Parsi, made a strategic calculation at the time — that the war would come and it would devastate them, but it would also destroy the Americans. In this book, Losing an Enemy: Obama, Iran, and the Triumph of Diplomacy, Parsi notes that Iranian officials thought the Iraq war had already turned the US into a ‘limping giant’, that another war in the region would end its superpower status, and that it would no longer be able to dominate the Middle East. Sure, they ventured, Iran would be ruined by the war, but they placed their hope on the longevity of Persia as a ci...

Israeli military officials said the IDF's opening blow blocked Iran from firing 500-700 missiles at Israel, and the war left Iran with a quarter of the missiles it had before. They also believe it will take Iran years to rebuild its nuclear capabilities

Netanyahu might say October 7 was Israel's Pearl Harbor, and the historic victory over Iran and its proxies is like the end of World War II. But the campaign against Iran wasn't as calculated as it seemed – and is far from over

TEHRAN: Iran currently has no plan to meet with the United States, Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Thursday in an interview on state TV, contradicting U.S. President Donald Trump’s statement that Washington planned to have talks with Tehran next week. The Iranian foreign minister said Tehran was assessing whether talks with the U.S. were […]

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth scolded reporters for 'breathlessly' focusing on assessments that Tehran's program was only set back by a few months, and said he had no indication that Iran had moved uranium ahead of the attack

Despite 12 days of aerial strikes, the Islamic Republic has the material, means and lack of oversight to work on a nuclear bomb, a Western official tells Haaretz – to some extent, Iran believes they won this round of fighting

US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth is set to hold a news conference on Thursday to offer a fresh assessment of strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, following a stinging row over how much American bombardment set back Tehran’s nuclear programme. After waves of Israeli attacks on nuclear and military sites and retaliatory missile fire from Iran since June 13, the United States bombed three key Iranian atomic facilities at the weekend. The extent of the damage in Iran, where Israel said it had acted to stop an imminent nuclear threat, has become the subject of profound disagreement in the United States. An initial classified assessment, first reported by CNN, was said to have concluded that the strike did not destroy key components and that Iran’s nuclear programme was set back only months at most. Another key question raised by experts is whether Iran, preparing for the strike, moved out some 400 kilogramme of enriched uranium — which could now be hidden elsewhere in the vast country. The US administration has ...

Israel seeks to use its achievement against Iran to exhaust diplomatic opportunities in the region, with Jerusalem's intention being to try, in accordance with Trump's vision, to include Lebanon and Syria in the Abraham Accords and bring about a solid normalization

„Războiul de 12 zile ” sună impresionant. Numind conflictul dintre Iran, Israel și Statele Unite în acest fel, Donald Trump atinge două obiective.

The Iran-Israel conflict reportedly cost the two nations roughly $25.5 billion, worth over 240,837 BTC at current prices, according to a report by Opportunity Cost, a digital tool that translates global spending into Bitcoin and Satoshi equivalents. According to the platform, Israel fired Arrow interceptor missiles, each costing around $3 million or 28.3 BTC, to counter Iranian missiles […] The post Iran and Israel spent over $25B during the ’12-day war,’ equivalent to 1% of total Bitcoin supply appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni stated on Wednesday that the determination demonstrated regarding the war between Iran and Israel must now also be applied to achieving ceasefires in Ukraine and the Gaza Strip.

U.S. President Donald Trump's message when joining Israel's attack on Iran was one many have longed to hear since October 7. But do his actions actually make Jews any safer in America?

A single U.S. Navy submarine launched over two dozen Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles into Iran, striking a nuclear facility at Isfahan.

While the strikes on Iran were planned meticulously for two decades, one detail was overlooked: Providing functioning shelters for much of the civilian population

US airstrikes did not destroy Iran’s nuclear capability and only set it back by a few months, according to a preliminary US intelligence assessment, as a shaky ceasefire brokered by US President Donald Trump took hold between Iran and Israel. Earlier on Tuesday, both Iran and Israel signaled that the air war between the two nations had ended, at least for now, after Trump publicly scolded them for violating a ceasefire he announced at 5am GMT (10am PKT). As the two countries lifted civilian restrictions after 12 days of war — which the US joined with an attack on Iran’s uranium-enrichment facilities — each sought to claim victory. Trump said over the weekend that the US deployment of 30,000-pound bombs had “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear programme. But that claim appeared to be contradicted by an initial assessment by one of his administration’s intelligence agencies, according to three people familiar with the matter. One of the sources said Iran’s enriched uranium stocks had not been eliminated, and the countr...

Iran’s threat to block the strait has already sent shock waves through trade and transport sectors, with broader consequences expected if the regime follows through

How would Israelis respond if the Islamic Republic called for Netanyahu's assassination? Even his harshest critics wouldn't want his removal orchestrated by their greatest enemy. Iran is no different
