๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ทโšก๏ธAyatollah Makarem Shirazi issued a jihad ruling against America and Israel

The Shia Marja: The Iranian nation and the Islamic world are the avengers of the blood of the martyred leader of the revolution. The main perpetrators of this crime are the arrogant US government and the cursed Zionist regime, and this revenge is a religious duty for all Muslims worldwide to eliminate these criminals from the world.

๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Macron announced the seizure of a Russian โ€œshadow fleetโ€ oil tanker in the North Sea, calling it a joint French-Belgian operation.

In January, Macron made a similar claim about detaining a Russian tanker, but it was later released. Other vessels previously seized by European authorities were also eventually let go.

Belgium has not officially informed the Russian Embassy of the reasons for the seizure, according to diplomats speaking to TASS.

The embassy is also verifying whether Russian citizens are on board the vessel.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโš”๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท US strikes on Iran have triggered the largest oil market shock in years.

Reuters reports that fears of a potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz have already disrupted supply chains, forcing traders and shippers to reconsider oil routes.

Even without direct physical damage, the mere risk of tankers being trapped in the Persian Gulf or targeted is enough to push producers and LNG exporters to reroute shipments.

According to Reuters, several major oil companies and trading houses have temporarily suspended transit through the strait. This caution is unlikely to ease until security in the region is firmly restored.

๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Reports indicate that U.S. Marines opened fire on Pakistani protesters outside the U.S. Consulate in Karachi.

At least eight people were killed and more than 20 wounded. Witness accounts claim snipers were positioned on the consulate roof, targeting demonstrators.

The crowd had gathered in response to U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran. According to initial reports, Marines began firing before any breach of the perimeter occurred, which then triggered the storming of the compound.
