—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 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’

— 🇮🇷/🇵🇰 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.’

— 🇮🇷/🇵🇰 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.

@Middle_East_Spectator

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: In a report, CBS news confirms that American military bases in the Middle East suffered ‘more extensive damage’ from Iranian attacks than publicly known

The bases are said to be mostly destroyed, and their repair would likely cost in the billions of dollars.

Notably, U.S. bases even came under attack by Iranian F-5 fighter jets — despite Trump’s claims that the Iranian Air Force had been ‘completely obliterated’.

This marks the third confirmed usage of the Iranian Air Force against U.S. bases during the war. Previously, an attack by two Iranian Su-24s led to 6 American fatalities in Kuwait, before they were eventually shot down when aporoaching the coast of Doha, Qatar.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 NEW: Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi, has left Pakistan, without meeting U.S. officials

@Middle_East_Spectator

— Pakistani sources say Araqchi ‘may return’ to Islamabad tomorrow.

I sincerely doubt it, and being this desperate is unhealthy, a meeting is simply not taking place.

—❗️🇱🇧 NEW: Heavy gunfire heard in Beirut

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇱🇧 NEW: The gunfire was the result of Lebanese State Security arresting an unknown ‘wanted person’

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇱🇧 NEW: Some roads in Beirut are being barricaded by locals in response to the raid

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇱🇧 UPDATE: The person that was arrested in Saqyet Al-Janzeer, Beirut, was someone who was scamming people with the price of generators

In other words, nothing imporant.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 KANN: ‘Despite expectations in the U.S. that the two sides would meet, Iran’s FM Abbas Araqchi left Islamabad before the arrival of the American delegation’
