Qatar's Interior Ministry said a Qatari citizen was killed and another injured after their vessel went missing during military operations.

The boat was found early Sunday following a search.

Officials did not specify where the incident occurred or whether the shrapnel was linked to Iranian drone attacks on U.S. military sites in Kuwait and Bahrain.

South Korea President Lee Jae Myung has ordered a government investigation into the national team's group-stage exit from the 2026 World Cup, saying he was "utterly baffled" by the result and questioning whether "competence" had been prioritised in appointing head coach Hong Myung-bo.

Hong announced his resignation on Sunday, saying he was "stepping down" and taking "all the responsibility" for South Korea's elimination after the team finished with one win and two losses in Group A.

Reza Pahlavi on Iran War:

I think one of the main reasons for the global response—particularly by the two countries that became involved with the Islamic Republic over the past few months, Israel and the United States—was the trip I made to Israel two years ago.

Reza Pahlavi:

This tactical retreat was necessary, because you cannot keep sending people into the streets only for them to face another wave of brutal repression.

We changed our tactics based on the realities on the ground.

Reza Pahlavi:

Just as our fellow Iranians should gradually begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel, I also want the world to understand that we are getting closer every day.

At the same pace that the Islamic Republic's ship is sinking, the potential for change is becoming more real.

Turkish Foreign Ministry:

The Israeli government, which is systematically oppressing the Palestinian people before the eyes of the entire world and is being tried at the International Court of Justice for committing genocide against the people of Gaza, aims to cover up its own crimes through the political decision it has adopted regarding the events of 1915.

This ill-intentioned initiative, which disregards legal and historical facts, reveals the predicament in which Netanyahu and his accomplices find themselves, as they are the subjects of arrest warrants issued within the scope of the investigation being conducted by the International Criminal Court in connection with crimes committed against Palestinians.

Türkiye will continue to work with determination for an end to Israel's expansionist and destabilizing policies in the region and for the Netanyahu government to be held accountable before the law for the crimes it has committed against civilians, especially the Palestinian people.

Bill Clinton on midterms:

I think we're in good shape for the fall.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich:

We have not yet eliminated either Hamas or Hezbollah, but there is now international legitimacy to eliminate both of these organizations.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich:

Hamas can take over the West Bank in an instant—we saw how quickly it took control of Gaza.

We want to bring one million "settlers" to the West Bank so that won't happen.

Trump:

The Reflecting Pool is now in full use after suffering great damage from Criminal, Radical Left Vandals, people that truly hate our Country.

Putin:

Strikes on Russia's energy infrastructure are causing problems — that's obvious.

There is a shortage resulting from Ukrainian Armed Forces strikes on Russia's energy infrastructure, but it is not critical.

Putin:

All damaged energy facilities in Russia are being restored quite quickly, and everything is operating with a large margin of safety.

Putin:

Crimea's fuel needs will be met, and there is currently a several-day supply there.

Putin:

We will not give the Ukrainian Armed Forces a chance to impose their own terms for negotiations.

Putin:

The issue of supplying Crimea with energy will be resolved.

We will increase fuel deliveries by land and by sea.

A senior U.S. official said technical talks with Iran on implementing the memorandum of understanding remain on track despite recent strikes.

The official said no talks have been canceled and both sides continue communicating through deconfliction channels.

Putin:

Kyiv will pay for its crimes in the Kursk region with the loss of territory needed for a security zone.

Putin:

Proposals are coming from Kyiv to limit military operations to just four territories (the Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions).

That would allow the Ukrainian Armed Forces to redeploy units there from other fronts.

It would be a lifeline for Kyiv amid its shortage of personnel. But saving the Kyiv regime is not part of our plans.

Putin:

The main objective of the Russian Armed Forces is to fully "liberate" Donbas and "Novorossiya."

Trump:

The criminally made algae is gone.

Trump:

Janeese Lewis George, the Communist who is almost certainly going to be elected Mayor of Washington, D.C., has stated that she wants to empty the prisons, make D.C. a Sanctuary City, oppose ICE, welcome Criminal Illegal Aliens back into our beloved Capital, resist Anti-Crime Crackdowns, Defund the Police, continue and expand Cashless Bail, and so many other Capital destroying “things.”

In the end, it will never work out, nor will I let it even have a chance because I have worked too hard to make Washington, D.C., the Envy of the World, with almost No Crime, and a Beautification process that has been second to none.

I will meet with Janeese Lewis George, but must forewarn everyone that Washington, D.C., is again a Safe and Prestigious Community. Many people, including myself, have worked long and hard to get it there, and we will not let it be destroyed by a Communist adherent who has no intention to, MAKE WASHINGTON GREAT AGAIN!
