Someone in IRGC-owned Fars News' discussion group:

"If they sign a deal, we, value-driven people will conduct acid attacks on women without hijabs. There must be no agreement with the killer of our leader."

Here's a direct link for that very message:

[Prime Minister of Israel @IsraeliPM]

The Prime Minister’s Office:
President Trump spoke this evening with Prime Minister Netanyahu regarding the emerging memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Iran to enter into negotiations.

Even though Israel is not a party to the memorandum of understanding, the Prime Minister expressed his appreciation for President Trump's commitment that the final agreement at the conclusion of negotiations will include the removal of enriched material, the dismantling of enrichment infrastructure, limits on missile production, and the cessation of Iran's support for its terrorist proxies in the region.

If all these governments have agreed on this deal, it’s amazing how all these governments signed up so fast while we were announcing we’d be bombing asap. Since it’s done can we see it?

And what is in this deal?! Can we see it?

Israel is not involved at this stage in the strikes on Iran - Israel’s public broadcaster Kan reports, citing security sources.

.@POTUS on Iran: "We hit them hard yesterday and we're going to hit them again hard today... And we'll see what happens with the deal. We were really close to a deal — but they keep tapping us along. They keep playing us for suckers because you know what? They dealt with some very stupid Presidents."

Masoud Payahoo, who recorded a viral video of a lone protester sitting before security forces during Iran’s nationwide protests in January, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison on accusations of alleged cooperation with Israel, Tehran-based Emtedad news website reported.

His lawyer, Hassan Aghakhani, said Payahoo had recorded the video spontaneously and had no intention of making it public, adding that he had shared it only with a limited number of friends in a private Instagram story.

The 10-year sentence was upheld by Branch 9 of the Supreme Court and referred for enforcement, Aghakhani said adding that Payahoo must now report to prison.

Tehran carried out more than 2,100 executions in 2025, the highest number recorded by the Amnesty International since the 1980s, the rights group’s Iran researcher Raha Bahreini told Iran International, describing the death penalty as a “tool of repression” used to instill fear after protests and dissent.

FIFA plans to again prohibit fans from bringing pre-revolutionary Iranian flags and related apparel into World Cup stadiums, The Athletic reported.

The flag, featuring the lion and sun emblem used before the 1979 revolution, is widely displayed by members of the Iranian diaspora as a symbol of identity and protest against Iran’s government.

When asked by The Athletic whether the flags or related apparel would be allowed at venues during the 2026 tournament, FIFA responded by referring to its stadium code of conduct banning political or discriminatory materials.

During the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, fans carrying the flag or anti-government messages were blocked from entering some stadiums.

.@POTUS on the ceasefire in Iran: "After reading that piece of garbage they sent us... It's on life support."

[Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47]

.@POTUS on Iran: They're very dishonorable people, the leadership. They just change their mind. I've had that in business many times. These people, you make a deal, and then they send you a document that takes 5 days to get there when it should've been there in 20 minutes.

⏱️ The internet blackout in #Iran has now surpassed the 1200 hour mark, continuing in its eighth week as of day 51.

As peace negotiations appear to flounder, one of the most important factors for Iranians, the restoration of international connectivity, is still overlooked.

[NetBlocks @netblocks]

🗓️ #Iran has now been isolated from the global internet for seven weeks with the digital blackout entering its 50th day after 1176 hours.

Metrics show the measure, unprecedented for a connected society, continues to the detriment of most Iranians' livelihoods and human rights.
