๐ŸดโŒ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บโ€” Suspected Islamic State Sahel Province gunmen stormed the Diori Hamani International Airport in Niamey, capital of Niger this morning, leading to several hours of battle with security forces, details to follow. @GeoPWatch
๐ŸดโŒ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บโ€” Some of the attackers at Niamey Airport entered through the main gate in a civilian car, avoiding the 350 cameras and walls that were built around the airport in defence since the last attack.

Details continue to emerge of the success of the infiltration, however the attached photo shows a dead attacker outside the car, suggesting the plot was foiled quickly.

โžก๏ธ Khamenei stated that he granted permission for the agreement based on a commitment from President Pezeshkian, in his capacity as Chairman of the Supreme National Security Council, that Iran's rights and those of the Resistance Front would be safeguarded and that Iran would not yield to further American demands or concessions.

โžก๏ธKhamenei stressed that any future direct negotiations will not signify submission to the enemy and called on the Iranian people and officials to ensure the commitments made are upheld.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ- Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has issued a written statement acknowledging the signing of the memorandum of understanding between Iran and the United States, while making clear he personally held reservations about the process. โžก๏ธ Khameneiโ€ฆ
๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ- Mojtaba Khamenei's full statement:
Passionate and faithful people of Iran,

As you have become aware, an agreement has been signed between the Presidents of Iran and the United States. In the process of reaching this stage, the responsible officials, out of concern and with good intentions, made great efforts. It was, however, the President of the United States who, out of desperation, resorted to various means to bring about this outcome.

In principle, I held a different opinion. Nevertheless, based on the commitment given to me by the respected Presidentโ€”acting as the head of the Supreme National Security Councilโ€”on behalf of himself and the other members, regarding the safeguarding of the rights of the Iranian nation and the Resistance Front, and his explicit acceptance of responsibility for it, I authorized this course of action. He has also explicitly stated that if the American side seeks excessive concessions, they will not submit to them.

From this moment on, weโ€”that is, you, the proud nation, and this humble servantโ€”shall await the fulfillment of the stated conditions. However, it is obvious that any face-to-face negotiations that may take place in the future do not mean acceptance of the enemyโ€™s views.

We hope that the blessed prayers of our Master, may God hasten his reappearance, will bring all kinds of support, victories, and triumphs to the honorable nation of Iran.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿค๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งโŒ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ- According to informed sources cited by Al-Mayadeen, Iran has suspended its negotiating delegation's trip to Switzerland due to ongoing Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon.

โžก๏ธ The delegation had already been preparing to travel to begin the first round of 60-day negotiations before the decision was made to suspend the trip.

โžก๏ธ Iran informed the U.S. and mediators that Lebanon is central to its negotiations, warning that the continuation of Israeli operations and attacks 10 kilometers deep into Lebanese territory constitutes a clear violation of the first clause of the Memorandum of Understanding.
