Switzerland has stopped approving weapons exports to the United States, citing its neutrality during the Israel–US conflict with Iran.

The government said arms exports to countries involved in the conflict cannot be authorized for now.

Ukraine says US and Gulf forces are using Patriot systems inefficiently, often firing multiple $3 million+ missiles at cheap drones and relying on automatic mode, which can waste interceptors and even lead to mistakes like friendly fire.

Ukrainian crews instead use more controlled, manual engagement tactics, typically firing fewer missiles per target and timing shots carefully to maximize success while conserving costly ammunition.

Pilots of downed Russian Ka-52 helicopter were also killed in a separate attack.

French President Macron:

This morning in the Mediterranean, the French Navy intercepted and boarded another vessel from the shadow fleet, the Deyna.

The war involving Iran will not deflect France from its support for Ukraine, where Russia’s war of aggression continues unabated.

These vessels, which evade international sanctions and violate the law of the sea, are profiteers of war. They line their pockets while helping finance Russia’s war effort.

We will not allow it.

CENTCOM released footage of strikes on underground tunnel entrances and missile launch sites at Iran’s Hajjiabad base near the Strait of Hormuz.

The strikes likely used 5,000-lb GBU-72 bunker-buster bombs.

Hajjiabad (Eagle 44) is a hardened underground Iranian base near the Strait of Hormuz, built to protect jets, drones, and missile systems.

It functions as a hardened airbase + missile hub, capable of housing:
Fighter jets (e.g., F-4).
Drones and cruise missiles.
Links to nearby underground ballistic missile launch complexes.

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot:

Iranian regime must make major concessions and adopt a radical change of posture.

NEW: Belarus freed 250 political prisoners after talks with a U.S. envoy—the largest release in its history, including activists, journalists, and opposition figures.

In exchange, the U.S. eased sanctions on key economic sectors, especially potash exports, major banks, and the finance ministry.

The deal signals a pragmatic thaw in relations, with discussions also touching on restoring diplomatic ties and cooperation.

THE SAVE AMERICA ACT MUST BE PASSED BY THE SENATE. THERE IS NOTHING THAT IS MORE IMPORTANT FOR THE U.S.A.

Zelensky:

228 Ukrainian experts are deployed across Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Jordan.

Two people, a 34-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman, were arrested after attempting to enter the UK’s Faslane nuclear submarine base in Scotland.

The man is believed to be Iranian. They did not gain access and were detained after acting suspiciously nearby.

Authorities say it’s too early to confirm espionage.

Trump:

Without the U.S.A., NATO IS A PAPER TIGER! They didn’t want to join the fight to stop a Nuclear Powered Iran.

Now that fight is Militarily WON, with very little danger for them, they complain about the high oil prices they are forced to pay, but don’t want to help open the Strait of Hormuz, a simple military maneuver that is the single reason for the high oil prices.

So easy for them to do, with so little risk. COWARDS, and we will REMEMBER!

No tankers loaded with crude oil have sailed through Hormuz in the past 24 hours.

Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Iran War:

This is an illegal war that we do not support.

A “no to war” message that is no longer just Spain’s voice, but a call—full of conviction and truth—that is now embraced by the entire world.

Even those fighting don’t know how long this war will last.

NEW: Iran warns it will target enemies globally—including officials, pilots, and soldiers—even in civilian locations like resorts and tourist areas, saying “no place in the world will be safe for you.”

Chuck Norris has died.

NEW: The F-35 fighter jet pilot, whose aircraft was hit by Iranian fire, is in stable condition with shrapnel wounds.

The jet made a “hard landing” and is unlikely to return to service anytime soon.

He calls unity across fronts the key strength of the Islamic world and “a nightmare for global arrogance and Zionism,” adding that recent actions have shocked enemies and that “greater surprises” are ahead.
