At a press conference in Tehran during Supreme Leader Khamenei's funeral, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baqaei said Europe "owes" Iran for staying silent. He argued that remaining silent in the face of injustice makes countries complicit in the crimes.
🚨 TRUMP AT NATO:
🇺🇲 "Iran can't impose conditions. If they close Hormuz, they won't have a country left..."
🇮🇷 IRANIAN OFFICIAL: "Why does he keep talking? If he can do anything, let him try. Hormuz is closed to you forever..."
🚨 EXCHANGE:
🇺🇸 Donald Trump: "We had a feeling that Iran was going to attack."
🇺🇸 Ana Kasparian: "I don't care about your feelings. Innocent people died because of your absurd war. Israel already committed genocide in Gaza before."
Let me explain why Iran and the US are trading shots again.
Under the MOU, Iran was to control the Strait of Hormuz shipping corridor for 60 days. Trump instead quietly backed a second route along Oman's coast, bypassing Iran's control.
Tehran fired warning shots at a vessel using the new corridor. The US used that as justification to resume bombing Iran.
There's no way to spin this as Iran being the side that broke the ceasefire.

الروابط بين إيران والعراق تتجاوز حدود الجغرافيا والجوار إلى تاريخ متجذر وقيم مشتركة ومصير واحد. شكراً لعراق الكرم والأصالة على هذا الوفاء.
An Israeli soldier documents himself destroying civilians’ belongings in Gaza and posts the clip on his account under the caption, “Dancing in Gaza.” This behavior has sparked a wave of condemnation for the recklessness and lack of accountability it reflects.
جندي إسرائيلي يوثق قيامه بتدمير مقتنيات مدنيين في غزة ونشر المقطع عبر حسابه تحت عنوان ‘نرقص في غزة’. هذا التصرف يثير موجة من الاستنكار لما يعكسه من استهتار وافتقار للمحاسبة.
“The Moment Ahmad Raised His Hands in Surrender, an Israeli Soldier Shot Him Directly in the Head”
The Guardian reports that Palestinian aid truck driver Ahmad Esleem was shot dead by an Israeli soldier while transporting humanitarian aid into Gaza, in what eyewitnesses and Gaza’s Transport Companies’ Association describe as a field execution.
Esleem, who was delivering food for World Central Kitchen (WCK) through a fully coordinated humanitarian convoy, was ordered out of his truck after one vehicle broke down near the Philadelphi Corridor.
Witnesses say Israeli soldiers forced the drivers to strip, assaulted them, and made them stand under the sun. As Ahmad Esleem raised his hands in surrender, an Israeli soldier shot him directly in the head.
The 30-year-old, a father of two children, including a one-month-old baby, was killed despite wearing official identification, carrying all required permits, and operating under coordination approved by the Israeli military, according to his employer and Gaza’s truckers association.
Witnesses also said Israeli soldiers threatened the surviving drivers, warning they would meet the same fate as Esleem.
