U.S. Department of State:

Given ongoing regional tensions, the U.S. Embassy in Doha has advised its personnel to exercise increased caution and limit non-essential travel to Al Udeid Airbase. We recommend U.S. citizens in Qatar do the same.

Air India:

Due to the emerging situation in Iran, the subsequent closure of its airspace, and in view of the safety of our passengers, Air India flights overflying the region are now using an alternative routing, which may lead to delays.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

The number of deaths, although they tried hard to increase it, are only hundreds.

The exact figure will be announced very soon, perhaps tonight.

The numbers they have said is an exaggeration; it is a misinformation campaign.

Trump proved to be against diplomacy when he attacked us in June, and when now he decided to cut any communication.

If there is any real interest to promote understanding and to understand what is going on really on the ground, he has to pay attention to the realities and not to the misinformation provided to him by those who want to drag him into another war.

The NOTAM has expired.

Trump has told advisers that any U.S. military action against Iran must be swift, decisive, and avoid a prolonged war.

Advisers have not been able to guarantee that a strike would quickly collapse the Iranian regime, raising concerns about retaliation and U.S. readiness in the region.

As a result, Trump may consider limited or targeted strikes rather than a large-scale operation, while keeping options open to escalate. No decision has been made.

Iran has extended its NOTAM, keeping the airspace restriction in place for an additional two hours.

Reza Pahlavi:

In security and foreign policy, Iran’s nuclear military program will end. Support for terrorist groups will cease immediately.

A free Iran will work with regional and global partners to confront terrorism, organized crime, drug trafficking, and extremist Islamism.

In diplomacy, relations with the United States will be normalized and our friendship with America and her people will be restored.

The State of Israel will be recognized immediately. We will pursue the expansion of the Abraham Accords into the Cyrus accords bringing together a free Iran, Israel, and the Arab world.
