Iran's National team footballer Ramin Rezaeian hit back strongly at a reporter attempting to turn the interview political:
"We're here for football. What happens inside Iran is our issue, and we'll deal with it. It's not for outsiders to interfere with."

السلام علیک یا ابا عبدالله و علیالارواح التی حلت بفنائک
As the sacred month of Muharram dawns, we grieve the arrival of the month of Imam Hussain (PBUH), the eternal symbol of ultimate sacrifice, devotion, and steadfastness in preserving divine and sublime human values.
I extend my deepest and most heartfelt condolences to all Muslims, freedom-seekers, and lovers of justice across the globe on this solemn occasion.
Imam Hussain (PBUH) remains, for all eternity, an undying beacon of light, guiding humanity toward truth, justice, and the establishment of righteousness. The pure blood shed by the Master of Martyrs and his loyal companions in Karbala continues to pulse through the veins of history, serving as an enduring source of inspiration for all freedom fighters and warriors on the frontlines of truth.
The historic triumphs and steadfast resilience witnessed today within the Axis of Resistance stand as a truthful testament and a living proof of this eternal legacy. They demonstrate that the school of Karbala remains vibrant, proving that blood will forever triumph over the sword, and that the path of dignity and resistance against oppression will inevitably culminate in victory.

In a televised statement, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi affirmed that, from Iran’s perspective, the two parties to the Memorandum of Understanding are the United States and “Israel” on one side, and Iran and Hezbollah on the other.
He stressed that the end of the war in Lebanon is an inseparable part of the complete end of the war, noting that ending the war on Lebanon also includes ending the occupation of Lebanese territory.
Araghchi said that, from now on, any military attack by "Israel" on Lebanon, as well as the continuation of the occupation of Lebanese territories, will be considered a violation of the MoU.

Any ground assault or strike on Iran's critical infrastructure will lead to the immediate destruction of Saudi, Qatari, Kuwaiti, Bahraini, and Emirati critical infrastructure, resulting in the immediate collapse of these regimes and a catastrophic global economic depression.
The Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in India categorically rejects the reports and claims circulated by certain media outlets regarding the economic situation in Iran and alleged difficulties in the supply of essential goods and public necessities.
It is emphasized that, despite the imposition of three wars and extensive pressures against the Iranian nation, no shortage of essential commodities or basic necessities has occurred to date. Owing to the effective measures and responsible management of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran under the leadership of President Dr. Masoud Pezeshkian, the procurement, supply, and distribution of the goods required by the country continue in a normal, stable, and uninterrupted manner.
The Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran also urges respected Indian media organizations to obtain and disseminate news and reports concerning Iran from credible, official, and verifiable sources. In this regard, it should be recalled that Iran International is a media outlet affiliated with opponents and adversaries of the Iranian people and has a long record of disseminating biased narratives aligned with anti-Iranian political agendas. Consequently, it cannot be regarded as a credible source for accurately reflecting the realities of Iran.

So apparently the plan is now to bomb Iran and then hope it does what Washington wants.
😂😂😂
Let's be real,that is not strategy,it's arrogance, desperation, and wishful thinking rolled into one.
After all the tough talk, the answer still seems to be the same: use military force, issue demands, and then hope reality bends to political fantasies.
Decades of failed interventions have taught nothing.
The belief that you can bomb a country into compliance is not a sign of strength,it's a sign of intellectual bankruptcy.
Such a reckless and shortsighted approach is the very definition of strategic failure.....
What has happened at the 2026 World Cup over the last 48 hours:

• Iraqi national team player Aymen Hussein was held for questioning for nearly 7 hours upon entering the United States.

• Omar Abdulkadir Artan, named CAF's Best African Referee of 2025, was denied a visa. Despite travelling to the U.S. with a diplomatic passport, he was refused entry and sent back. FIFA announced that he will not be able to officiate at the tournament.
• The South African national team arrived in the United States much later than planned because part of the delegation was not granted visas.
• Members of the Senegal national team staff were forced to remove their shoes and subjected to lengthy searches, sparking accusations of racism.
• The Uzbekistan national team was searched with bomb-sniffing dogs and the footage went viral in international media.
• Some Scottish supporters, despite being eligible to enter the U.S. visa-free under the ESTA programme, had their travel authorisations revoked just days before departure.
• Many supporters who had already bought tickets and booked accommodation had their visa applications rejected, resulting in financial losses.
