—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Ali Hashem, Al-Jazeera’s correspondent in Iran, on the details of the final MoU draft.

– End of regional war on all fronts, including Lebanon.

– Freeing several billions of dollars of Iran's frozen assets.

– Lifting the U.S. naval blockade.

– Opening the Strait of Hormuz under ‘Iranian management’ (unclear if there will be tolls)

– Withdrawal of the majority of American forces from the Middle East.

After this, the two sides will have 30 days to find an agreement on the nuclear issue, but this timeframe can be extended if mutually agreed.

‘In the Roman mind, Rome was the undisputed center of the world. Yet the Iranians shattered that illusion.

When Marcus Julius Philippus (Philip the Arab) marched east against Persia, the campaign did not result in Roman victory — it ended in a peace established on Sasanian terms: the emperor had to come to terms!’

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iranian analyst: ‘What started with a bid to overthrow our government, now ends with the withdrawal of U.S. forces from our region. Let it be known that Islamic Iran cannot be subjugated by tyrants.’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency:

‘Based on the latest exchanged text, in the event of signing a Memorandum of Understanding, the Strait of Hormuz will remain under Iranian management.

Although Iran has agreed to allow the number of passing ships to return to pre-war levels, this in no way means ‘free passage’ to the pre-war status-quo.

Accordingly, the management of the strait, route determination, timing, method of passage, and issuance of permits will remain exclusively under the planning and control of the Islamic Republic of Iran.‘

@Middle_East_Spectator

They’re saying a lot of things, but what they’re not saying is TOLLS.

Management is fun and all, but the only thing that truly matters is tolls.

Have to wait and see.

— 🇷🇺/🇺🇦 NEW: Russia launched two hypersonic ‘Oreshnik’ IRBMs at Ukraine

Crazy footage shows MIRVs (multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles) impacting Kiev region.

These missiles are normally only used for delivering nuclear warheads, and are almost impossible to intercept.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: In a delusional piece, the New York Times now claims that Iran has agreed to give up its stockpile of enriched uranium

When you actually read the article, they admit that it ‘remains unclear how or when Iran would hand it over’, and that Iran only made a commitment (which I even doubt).

The media are working around the clock to make this deal look more acceptable to the MAGA audience.

@Middle_East_Spectator

Goodnight, and good luck to those still covering Ukraine, couldn’t be me
