— NOTE: While in many cases alleged ‘massacres’ committed by the Assad regime were fabricated, the events at Tadamoun were clearly recorded and published & confirmed

The person seen shooting civilians in the video, and then throwing them into mass graves, is Amjad Youssef, and there is no doubt about it.

Regardless of beliefs, such criminals must be punished, and the fact that Assad failed to put thugs like him to justice was one of the many flaws that led to the fall of his regime.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇵🇰/🇮🇷 NEW: In an attempt to meet with Iranian officials, President Trump has ordered Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff to travel to Islamabad coinciding with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi’s visit – CNN

Iranian media confirmed earlier that meeting an American delegation is not on Araqchi’s schedule.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇵🇰/🇮🇷 Iranian media:

‘Trump’s attempt to send a delegation to Islamabad is desperate and Araqchi won’t meet with Witkoff or Kushner’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇵🇰/🇮🇷 Iranian journalist in Islamabad:

‘We have no idea why Kushner and Witkoff are being sent to Islamabad, a meeting with them is not on the Foreign Ministry’s agenda.

Furthermore, FM Araqchi will likely already have departed Pakistan by the time they arrive.’

Schrödinger’s Islamabad talks.

@Middle_East_Spectator

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 The White House to Fox News:

‘Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will travel to Islamabad tomorrow to meet with Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi.

The Iranians reached out to us and requested a direct meeting, which will take place with Pakistani mediation.

We’ll see what happens. If the talks progress, Vice President J.D. Vance will also be coming to Islamabad, and his team remains deeply involved in the negotiations process.’

@Middle_East_Spectator

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 Iran’s semi-official Tasnim News Agency:

‘Negotiations with the U.S. are not on the agenda and FM Araqchi’s trip to Islamabad is for the purpose of talking to the Pakistanis.

American officials and media outlets have been fabricating stories about new rounds of negotiations for more than 10 days, and almost daily more than a few false reports are published by them about the start of negotiations’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇮🇷/🇵🇰 Iranian diplomatic journalist, Sara Massoumi:

‘During the FM's visit to Islamabad, Pakistan will act as a mediator to convey Iran's stance on ending the imposed war.

No direct talks with the U.S. are scheduled.

This trip is essentially a reciprocal response to Field Marshal Assim Munir's visit to Tehran.’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇮🇷/🇵🇰 NEW: Araqchi has arrived in Islamabad

@Middle_East_Spectator

Contrary to claims, no new ship has been seized by the IRGC Navy.

The misunderstanding stems from the fact that the IRGC released an official statement on the ‘EPAMINONDAS’ just now, although it was seized two days ago along with the ‘MSC FRANCESCA’.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei, confirms in a post on X that NO meeting is planned with U.S. officials

Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi will meet with high-level Pakistani officials in Islamabad, and they will be given a written document with Iran’s views on recent developments.

War Monitor decline needs to be studied

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 Pakistani sources:

‘Prospects for the resumption of the second round of U.S.-Iran talks are rapidly fading, as Tehran is still not ready to meet the U.S. delegation, which was expected to arrive late tonight from Washington.

Iran continues to insist that the Americans end their naval blockade as a precondition for opening the second round of talks.’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 NOTE: There was no prospect of a meeting between Araqchi and Witkoff / Kushner to begin with

It was purely American media hallucinating and imagining, as they have done over the past two weeks.
