Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

Jihadist organizations never raise a white flag. They fear targeted assassinations because they fear for themselves, but they don't care about their own public.

On the contrary, they use it as propaganda. They say, "50,000 were killed? Too bad it wasn't 100,000."

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

We entered Gaza with overwhelming force, remained in those areas, and destroyed both the underground and above-ground infrastructure.

Those areas have been flattened. From a security standpoint, this removes future threats, and it also sends a very powerful message.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz on Lebanon:

We are not allowing the civilian population to return.

More than that, the first line of villages inside the security zone has been completely destroyed.

We've completed it—100%.

Oman says there are no plans to impose transit fees in the Strait of Hormuz.

Reza Pahlavi:

Irrespective of whether there's support for the Iranian people or not, our struggle will continue. So we are regrouping.

We are reorganizing. I think people eventually will find another chance to come to the streets at the right time.

Reza Pahlavi:

If you reward a regime that blackmails you by promising them economic relief, it's adding insult to injury.

And if you were to give that money, it will not trickle down to the people. They'll keep it.

Reza Pahlavi on Trump:

Every few hours we have a different tweet coming from this president, and all of a sudden the headline changes from one thing to the other.

I'm not reading too much into any statement that has been made.

Reza Pahlavi:

It has never been the case for me to run for office or position. But I'm uniquely placed to be an agent of change and transition.

There's a trust in me.

Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani:

Ben-Gvir has shown himself unworthy of serving as a minister and of representing the Israeli people.

Many voices in Israel itself have publicly and firmly distanced themselves from Ben-Gvir.

Italian Deputy PM Matteo Salvini on Trump-Meloni dispute:

Whoever attacks our Prime Minister attacks the entire government and the whole country.

However, this cannot and must not call into question the good relations between Italy and the United States, which go beyond the current president or any future president.

Italian Deputy PM Matteo Salvini on Trump-Meloni dispute:

There is no war between Italy and the United States.

There are already too many wars, and I hope the United States will help bring some of them to an end, especially since, in Iran as well, things don't seem to be going very well.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

If ships are moving, then that's what we are gonna react to.

If the ships don't move, then that's a violation of the agreement, and we are gonna have a problem with it.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

Let's suppose that we went crazy and lost our minds completely and decided to agree to have a tolling or a fee mechanism.

How would that work? It's not doable. Because what's the consequence for not paying?

Let's say a ship says, "well, I'm not going to pay the fee." It's not like a toll on a road, you don't get a ticket in the mail. They get shot at.

You shoot at one ship, you sink one ship, no other ship is going to move. So that sort of system is not only unwise, it can't happen.

It's not even workable. So you might as well abandon the fantasy now.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

The Iranian system is still led by radical clerics.

That's what it's always been led by, and that's what it continues to be led by.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

They have some people on the political branches that seem more flexible and more willing to work with us.

Those are the ones we are negotiating with.

Marco Rubio on Oman:

Our relationship with Oman is fine.

They say they are not in favor of a tolling system in Hormuz.
