🇮🇷/🇦🇪 BREAKING: The Wall Street Journal confirms, based on informed sources, that the UAE has been carrying out strikes on Iran

One of the strikes back in April targeted the Lavan Oil Refinery Company (LORC) on Lavan Island.

The UAE had long been suspected of carrying out the attack, but it was unconfirmed until now. At the time, Iran responded by targeting an Emirati refinery.

🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Iran’s Parliament Speaker, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf:

‘There is no alternative but to accept the rights of the Iranian people as laid out in the 14-point proposal.

Any other approach will be completely inconclusive, nothing but one failure after another.

The longer they drag their feet, the more the American taxpayers will pay for it.’

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — President Trump has become increasingly frustrated with how Iran is handling negotiations to end the war, and some aides say he is now more seriously considering a resumption of major combat operations than he has in weeks, according to CNN.

➡️ Trump is particularly impatient over the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and what he sees as divisions within Iran’s leadership preventing meaningful concessions on nuclear talks.

➡️ Officials inside the administration are divided on the next step: some are advocating a tougher strategy, including targeted strikes to further weaken Iran’s position, while others are urging the White House to continue pursuing diplomacy.

🇮🇷 NEW: President Pezeshkian says Iran should negotiate with the U.S. despite ‘deep lack of trust’

He also quotes Imam Ali out of context, saying: ‘If the enemy invites you to peace, do not reject it’

(Of course, this quote does not apply to those who have repeatedly betrayed their words, and commit hostile acts at every opportunity)
