Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

I will state this clearly as well: Iran’s missiles and Iran’s defense system will never be subject to any negotiations.

Iranian National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani:

The European Union certainly knows that, according to the resolution passed by the Islamic Consultative Assembly (Majles), the armed forces of the countries that took part in the European Union’s recent resolution against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) are considered terrorist organizations.

Therefore, the consequences of this action will fall upon the European countries that undertook it.

Israel will reopen Gaza’s Rafah crossing with Egypt on Sunday, allowing limited travel for Gazans who left during the war, subject to Israeli security approval.

Alleged Mossad-linked operative tells Israeli Channel 12 that he helped form an inside team and remotely strike a missile launcher in Iran on June 13, while staying in live contact with headquarters:

Our mission was to take very specific and professional weapon, to assemble everything together and be ready to launch. I was Mossad’s eyes inside this mission.

To finish the job, I only had to click on a button and leave from there. I had to wait for more than two hours… I was scared about everything.

We had just one chance to launch. I said: ‘Okay, let’s do it.’ I could see our target… a launcher ready to shoot the ballistic missile to Israel.

We eliminated it. I said: ‘We did our job.’

HQ said: ‘Yes, you did.’”

Chinese dissident Ai Weiwei:

The West is not even in a position to accuse China — just look at their own record on international human rights and freedom of speech.

They are not in a position at all, and this even gives China a stronger position.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on the Epstein files:

We did not protect Trump or anyone else.

There is a hunger for information that I don't think will be satisfied by the review of these documents.

There is nothing I can do about that.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on the Epstein files:

If we had information about men who abused women, we would prosecute them.

There is this built-in assumption that there is somehow a hidden information of men that we know about and covering up.

I don't think the public will uncover men within the Epstein files that abused women, unfortunately.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on the Epstein files:

The White House had no oversight over this review.
