⚡️🇦🇫 — Taliban Spokesperson, Abdul Qahar Balkhi:

Currently, the government of Afghanistan has suspended from grade seven onwards a very specific and particular type of education for women and girls.

But there’s other sectors opened.

⚡️🇦🇫🇺🇸 — Taliban Spokesperson, Abdul Qahar Balkhi:

We were not involved in an incident that happened in the United States on September 11.

There were no Afghan nationals involved in it. There was no association with that attack in Afghanistan.

At that moment in history, geopolitics demanded something. The United States acted on it.

⚡️🇪🇺 — President of the European Commission, Von Der Leyen:

We should be under no illusions about what is happening here.

Hybrid threats facing Europe are less and less hybrid and less and less threats.

Cyber attacks, sabotage, arson, drone incursions — they are ramping up every day.

So as the threat level climbs, so must Europe's preparedness.

And this is why I will propose, together with the High Representative/Vice-President, a new European Security Strategy.

⚡️🇬🇧🇵🇸 — UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband on Gaza:

I met a group of aid workers and a doctor who’d worked in Gaza, and it’s absolutely unspeakable what they were saying.

The delay or denial of medicines, children dying, not being able to get out, waiting for relatively basic medical treatment, just the whole litany of things.

It is unspeakable and appalling.

⚡️🇬🇧🇮🇷🇺🇸 — UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband on Iran:

I wasn’t in favor of us joining the action at the start of the conflict with Iran.

I think Keir Starmer made the right call. I think it was a hard call to make because it’s not what British prime ministers tend to do.

⚡️🇮🇱🇹🇷🇶🇦 — Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett:

We need tools at the same time: economic and political tools, and if necessary, kinetics, but I don't want an endless war. I'm kicking Qatar and Turkey out of Gaza. Today, Qatar and Turkey are actually customs, and they are on the board of directors that leads the future of Gaza, called the Board of Peace. Now, this is a crazy thing because Turkey and Qatar are friends of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is also Hamas.

⚡️🇮🇱🇮🇷 — Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett:

So there are about 30 different actions that could hasten the collapse of the Iranian regime. Okay, and Iran is holding a nuclear weapon. I am advancing towards a nuclear weapon. I am attacking with an advanced weapon. Definitely not at any cost... We have information that they are advancing. Even if the United States tells you, yes, at any cost. If they get a nuclear weapon, it endangers our existence. And it will also create a kind of domino effect where many other countries in the region, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt, will all say if Iran has a nuclear weapon, we definitely want one too.

🚨🇾🇪🇸🇦 — Statement of the Yemeni Armed Forces:

The criminal Saudi enemy continues its unjust aggression and oppressive siege against our country and our people for twelve years, and has escalated its aggression this week by launching more than 450 airstrikes targeting most Yemeni governorates.

In response to this brutal aggression against our country and people, the Yemeni Armed Forces, with Allah's help, carried out two qualitative military operations:

The first targeted the Aramco facility in Yanbu with dozens of ballistic missiles and drones, the strikes were precise and direct, thanks be to Allah, causing large fires and widespread destruction.

The second targeted the Khamis Mushait Air Base with a number of ballistic missiles, and the strikes were also precise, thanks be to Allah.
The Yemeni Armed Forces will continue to defend our country and our people, and will teach the criminal Saudi enemy lessons they will never forget, relying on Allah Almighty and placing their trust in Him, the best of protectors and the best of helpers.

We will continue our military operations deep inside Saudi territory, targeting Saudi troop buildups, and maintaining the equation of "a siege for a siege" and "an escalation for an escalation" until the aggression ceases and the blockade on our beloved country is lifted.

Sana'a,
Rabi' al-Thani 5, 1448 AH
