UPDATE
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman denied reports of any tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and said shipping traffic remains unaffected following the Lebanon ceasefire that reportedly took effect at 4 p.m. and the return to the previous Hormuz understanding.
According to Iranian sources on the ground and maritime radio traffic, tensions did occur in the Strait of Hormuz earlier today. The matter was reportedly resolved behind the scenes and kept out of public view.
Tehran’s official position, is that no incident took place. - Ilia Hashemi

Hezbollah releases new video: Israel must leave — and it will leave.
🇮🇱🇱🇧 That ceasefire lasted about as long as a sneeze.
We are already seeing strikes in Nabatieh, Kfar Tebnit and Kfar Sir, so much for the peace deal.
The IDF is naturally playing the hits, claiming it needs operational freedom to keep going after Hezbollah, which is just a fancy way of saying the truce is a suggestion for everyone except them.
Reporters on the ground are calling it déjà vu, since every announced ceasefire seems to come with a fresh wave of strikes attached, though honestly it is closer to a sick joke.
People in Tyre are wondering what a ceasefire even means anymore, and the answer keeps falling out of the sky.
Diplomacy, it turns out, is just nice background noise for the next round of air strikes.

🇮🇷 Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson: Today's planned meeting in Switzerland has been postponed.
The meeting's main purpose was to sign the text of the war-ending agreement, with sideline talks on arrangements for the final-deal negotiations. Since the MOU was already signed digitally on the morning of 28 Khordad (June 18), the Switzerland meeting isn't urgent — a new one is being planned for the coming days.
Per the MOU text, the start of final-agreement negotiations depends on the implementation — and continued implementation — of Articles 1, 4, 5, 10, and 11.
Necessary consultations are ongoing through mediators; an announcement will follow once the conditions for negotiations are met.
🇮🇷⚡️– IRGC Navy in a VHF radio transmission:
"This is the IRGC Navy. A complete ceasefire in Lebanon and Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon (among various other things) were part of the MoU between Iran and America.
Until these conditions are met, the Strait will remain closed. All vessels are ordered, for their own safety, to not approach the Strait of Hormuz. Any vessel that defies this order will be targeted. IRGC Navy out."
🇮🇱🇱🇧 IDF spokesperson on why they’re still striking Lebanon:
"We are also operating in order to prevent threats beyond the 'Yellow Line.'
We will continue to work according to the instructions that are currently in place."

🇮🇱🇱🇧 IDF spokesperson:
“Hezbollah is fighting a defensive battle to prevent our forces from completing the destruction of these infrastructures.”
“Hezbollah is the one that violated the ceasefire. It is trying to defend its capabilities it built over the years.”
He legit said: we had to attack them because they violated the ceasefire by defending themselves. I can’t even.

🇮🇱 IDF spokesperson:
"The IDF is prepared and ready to return to intensive combat operations, immediately, in any arena."
Let me translate that for you: We're willing to break the U.S.-Iran deal and keep doing what we do: war.

JUST IN: TRUMP:
“The War has diminished Iran! It doesn’t, any longer, have an Air Force, a Navy, Antiaircraft Equipment, Radar, or practically anything else, and yet the Dumocrats say that Iran is better off now than it was four months ago. Can you imagine getting away with that??? How stupid can some people be??? President DJT”
This is not a rant by a random genocidal lunatic. It's a public post by the national security minister of the Israeli regime.
The genocidal death cult headquartered in Tel Aviv is a threat to all of humanity. It threatens all humans. Its only interest is permanent war.
BREAKING: Iran has declared that ships cannot cross the Strait of Hormuz without its permission, setting the stage for future tolling arrangements by saying it could introduce “insurance fees," per Bloomberg.
Details include:
1. All vessels that transit the Strait of Hormuz will have to secure a mandatory insurance policy
2. This policy is currently free for the next 60 days but could involve charges in the future
3. Iran also said ships must follow its prescribed route and that alternatives are prohibited
The MoU signed with the US only says that transit through the Strait of Hormuz would be free for the duration of its 60 day term.
It appears Iran is preparing for long-term control of Hormuz.

There’s a lot of blatant incoherence here. You refuse to take a position against the RSF militia and will treat both sides the same but will also recognise that if the Sudanese Army does fail to defend a city from the RSF it will lead to genocidal atrocities.
You will write long toothless statements of condemnation against the RSF but continue to pretend that you aren’t aware that they are a UAE proxy; that is literally having weapons flown to it from the UAE as I post this.

“It’s an attitudinal problem… churches must also come in and educate their members not to throw rubbish into gutters or litter around.” — Richard, a caller from Tema, urging religious institutions to play a stronger role in public education on sanitation.
He argued that beyond government efforts, faith leaders should use their platforms to shape behaviour, noting that churches remain highly influential in Ghana and can help reinforce proper waste disposal practices among congregants.
