I can smell this being used as a pretext for the UK or NATO to get involved against Iran somehow. Or for the U.S. to reignite the war. Very fishy.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: In accordance with the U.S. Treasury Department’s ‘Economic Outcast’, Google imposes sanctions against Iran, making it impossible for Iranians to create new Gmail accounts

@Middle_East_Spectator

NOTE: Would Scott Bessent kindly like to explain how not making a Gmail account will prevent the IRGC from producing ballistic missiles?

These ‘sanctions’ are clearly just aimed at making ordinary Iranians’ lives as miserable as possible.

So the case was referred to the normal police instead.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi:

‘There is a very reasonable offer on the table. If they reject it for no reason, that’s their own fault.

And although we heard from President Trump that he’s rejecting the deal, we are still waiting for an official response through the mediators.’

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi:

‘We don’t care about the U.S. midterm elections, we don’t care about anything except our national interests.

We are ready to negotiate—as much as we are ready to face any aggression.

We stand firm in the face of any aggression against us, even if it comes to a doomsday war.’

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi:

‘If I’m being very honest, there is no reason for us to engage in diplomacy with the United States at all.

In 2025, they offered us negotiations [on the nuclear program] and we accepted. Then, in the middle of negotiations, we were attacked.

About 8 months later, in February 2026, they offered negotiations a second time, and we once again accepted. As negotiations were ongoing, they attacked us again.

Then, after the war, we engaged in even more diplomacy. We signed an MoU, and they violated it within days. So, there is no real reason for us to go back to diplomacy.

But we are trying diplomacy one last time, because we don’t want to miss any chance for achieving peace.’

— 🇺🇸/🇬🇧 President Trump when asked about the incident at RAF Fairford earlier today:

‘It was fantastic. Working with Britain it was an amazing job. We had them under investigation. They were looking to do big damage to our fort.

Working with the British turned out great. It may have been Scotland Yard, I don’t know, we worked with a lot of them—we had them under view for a long time, and we got them.’

⚡🇺🇸🇮🇷 US President Trump:

I think what's going to happen is we're going to win this war very soon and as soon as we win it, it's going to go the oil will go down way down to what it was before the war and the key is uh Iran will not have a nuclear weapon.

That's the key to the whole thing.

I think both. I think both. I think we'll win it both ways. We've already won it really through from a military standpoint, but that doesn't mean we've stopped that, but we're certainly winning it very big.

The cause is currently unclear; it could be interceptor activity, Iranian ballistic missiles incoming, or sonic booms from U.S. / Israeli fighter jets.

@Middle_East_Spectator

It seems a single large explosion was heard, the cause is still unknown.

According to three U.S. officials, the marines were operating aboard a ‘U.S.-contracted’ vessel, rather than an actual American warship.
