Netanyahu on Iran:

They are going back to ballistic missile production. As far as the nuclear program, I think they are trying to do that. I’m not sure they’ve decided to cross the line.

They have to choose. We don’t seek escalation, but if they do, all bets are off.

Netanyahu:

Iran was a first-rate power. It was carrying itself around the Middle East and the world as though it were a superpower.

Netanyahu on Syria:

Half their army are jihadists.

Hindutva extremist group going door to door in Ghaziabad, handing out swords and and telling people they are 'to cut down Muslims.'

Sudan: UAE-backed RSF militias and the SPLM-N faction are using drones to target the el-Samasim area along the Dilling–Kadugli road in South Kordofan.

Netanyahu:

Iran is in cahoots with the Maduro regime. They’re exporting terrorism to America, to the American hemisphere, and they want Hezbollah and Hamas to get their guys into the United States.

Netanyahu:

I wouldn’t eliminate the possibility of arms shipments from Iran to Venezuela.

Netanyahu on Trump:

History will judge him well.

President of The Center for Iranian Studies Assoc. Prof. Serhan Afacan:

The Iranian administration does not want a second round of confrontation.

They do not want their cities bombed once again by the Israeli Air Force. I think the Trump administration also does not want a second round of confrontation.

If a second round of confrontation breaks out, this time Iran is going to do everything to disseminate the conflict to the region, which means they are going to use their proxies, or what they call the Axis of Resistance.

President of The Center for Iranian Studies Assoc. Prof. Serhan Afacan:

This protest, which started in Tehran, is not surprising because there’s high inflation, and there’s a collapse of Iran’s currency against the U.S. dollar.

As far as the outside powers, like Israel and the United States, are concerned, they definitely try to escalate the tension inside the country.

Once Israel and the United States start saying such things—calling for regime change—about the genuine protests in Iran, these protests are easily securitized by the Iranian government.

President of The Center for Iranian Studies Assoc. Prof. Serhan Afacan:

President Trump doesn’t have an appetite to start a second confrontation with Iran. He warned the Iranians that he would not allow the weaponization of their nuclear program.

Prime Minister Netanyahu, I think, definitely wants a second confrontation. From his perspective, a second round of confrontation is necessary to finish the job.

Netanyahu:

Christians are oppressed everywhere in the Middle East — except one place: Israel.

Israel says it will suspend the licences of 37 humanitarian organisations working in Gaza Strip, including Doctors Without Borders (MSF) and Oxfam, for failing to meet new registration and information-sharing rules.

Israel claims some groups did not properly disclose staff roles, funding or operations, and accused MSF of possible links to Hamas — allegations the organisation strongly denies.

MSF warned the move will severely damage healthcare in Gaza, where it supports a significant share of hospital beds and births.

Our intelligence indicates that three important steps have been agreed upon with Somaliland:

First, the resettlement of Palestinians in Somaliland.

If these three are implemented, what will happen in the future?

In the past year, 600,000 of our Syrian guests have returned to their homeland.
