Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

We have drawn important lessons and gained valuable experience from the previous war.

At present, our ballistic missiles are in place, our strength remains intact, we have reviewed our key capabilities, and we are even better prepared.

This is the clearest message we can deliver to the United States: if there is an attack, we will respond with a shocking, swift, and very powerful counterstrike.

Q: Will the Axis of Resistance — such as Hezbollah and the Houthis — be activated?

Iranian FM Araghchi: We have the capability to defend ourselves, and we do not need anyone else.

Q: Have you received military support from Russia and China, or are you receiving it?

Iranian FM Araghchi: Do you really expect me to answer that question?

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

Sometimes they claim 30,000, sometimes 50,000 people have died. All of this is false.

The death toll is 3,117, as announced by the official authorities.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

Regime change is nothing but a fantasy. Some people have fallen into this illusion.

Our system is so deeply rooted and has such strong foundations that the coming and going of individuals makes no difference.

The system remains in place and continues to function.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

We are not concerned with elections in Israel or anywhere else. We have prepared ourselves for every possibility.

I must say that there is no real democracy in Israel.

Iranian President Pezeshkian:

Justice is not proven by words, but by behavior. When we act fairly, people will see it and accept it.

Ukraine’s Minister of Energy:

Today at 10:42, a technological disturbance occurred with the simultaneous disconnection of the 400 kV line between the power systems of Romania and Moldova, and the 750 kV line between the western and central parts of Ukraine.

This caused a cascade outage in Ukraine’s power grid and the activation of automatic protection systems at substations. Power units at nuclear power plants were unloaded (reduced output).

Currently, in Kyiv city, Kyiv, Zhytomyr, and Kharkiv regions, the dispatcher has implemented special emergency outage schedules.

Energy workers from Ukrenergo are working to restore electricity supply. Power is expected to be restored within the next few hours.

Zelensky:

There were reports by Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko and Minister of Energy Denys Shmyhal on the emergency situation in Ukraine’s energy system caused by technological issues on the power lines between Ukraine’s energy system and Moldova.

All necessary response measures at the level of Ukraine’s energy system are in place, and restoration work is underway. The task is to stabilize the situation in the near future.

Iranian President Pezeshkian:

The unrest was not just social protest. Foreign actors like Trump and Netanyahu tried to exploit people’s grievances to create division and chaos.

Real protests do not involve guns, killing soldiers, or burning ambulances and markets. We must listen to genuine public concerns and work to solve them.

The death toll has risen to 29.
