NOW: Saudi airstrikes target UAE-aligned forces in Hadramout, Yemen.

UAE-backed forces:

We are facing an attack by a mix of the Muslim Brotherhood, al-Qaeda, and the Houthis.

We will confront and crush extremist militias.

Ali Shamkhani, senior advisor to Khamenei:

The people of Iran know the Americans’ “rescue” experience well—from Iraq and Afghanistan to Gaza.

Any meddling hand that approaches Iran’s security under any pretext will be cut off before it reaches, with a regret-inducing response.

Iran’s national security is a red line—not a stage for adventurous tweets.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo:

I remember when there were protests during President Obama’s time in office, and the Americans said nothing.

Already, our State Department has put out a statement.

It’s been made very clear by the closeness between Trump and Netanyahu that we’re prepared to do what is necessary to make sure that the Iranian people’s desires and wishes can come true if they’ll go work at it really hard.

This is so different than what we saw over 15 years ago.

Pro-regime rally underway in Iran.

What this pharaoh called Netanyahu has done will not go unpunished, because he has incurred the curses of countless oppressed people, from ages 7 to 70.

Sudan: The Sudanese Armed Forces carried out drone strikes against UAE-backed RSF positions in Kulbus, West Darfur.

Turkish President Erdogan:

We will have another talk with Trump on Monday.

Turkish President Erdogan:

Palestine is not alone; Palestine is always dear to us, like our own flesh and blood.

Israel’s hostility will not go unanswered.

Trump:

The White House Doctors have just reported that I am in “PERFECT HEALTH,” and that I “ACED” (Meaning, was correct on 100% of the questions asked!), for the third straight time, my Cognitive Examination, something which no other President, or previous Vice President, was willing to take.

P.S., I strongly believe that anyone running for President, or Vice President, should be mandatorily forced to take a strong, meaningful, and proven Cognitive Examination.

Our great Country cannot be run by “STUPID” or INCOMPETENT PEOPLE!

Turkish President Erdogan on Gaza:

We are doing everything we can. Can you imagine—we want to send containers, but permission is not granted, because Netanyahu’s approval is required.

We have the containers ready, but since he does not give permission, we cannot send them.

Somalia: SNA announced it repelled an Al-Shabaab attack in Warqaadhi, Middle Shabelle, killing the ringleader and forcing militants to retreat.

Later this week, there will be a Coalition of the Willing conference in Paris, and my Minister of Foreign Affairs will attend on my behalf.
