โผ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐บ๐ธ Fragments of an American Tomahawk missile have been found at the site of the strike on a school in Minab, - NYT
โช๏ธMissile fragments found at the site of the strike on a girls' school in Minab bear markings characteristic of an American cruise missile.
โช๏ธThe publication analyzed photos published by Iranian state media after the strike. Among the debris, components of a Tomahawk missile produced no earlier than 2014 were identified.
โช๏ธThese include a satellite antenna with the marking SDL ANTENNA, as well as a control mechanism and other parts.
โช๏ธThe fragments bear the names of American manufacturers Ball Aerospace Technologies and Globe Motors - such components were previously found after strikes in Yemen and Syria.
โช๏ธTrump initially blamed Iran for the strike on the school, then stated that he was ready to accept the results of the investigation. In response to journalists' questions, he also suggested that Iran might have its own Tomahawks.
โช๏ธHowever, as the publication notes, Iran does not have such missiles, and their transfer to third countries requires the permission of the US State Department.
โช๏ธInterviewed experts confirmed that the found debris correspond to the components of a Tomahawk cruise missile used by American forces in other conflicts.

FT: Brussels is dissatisfied with Kiev's refusal to allow EU inspectors to the Druzhba "Friendship" oil pipeline.
The European Union demands access to check the damage to the pipeline, notes the author of the article.
"Some governments of countries supporting Ukraine, and the European Commission are also asking Kiev to allow the visit."
The Kiev regime denied European inspectors access. Without an inspection, the EU cannot confirm the scale of the damage.
"EU officials appealed to the leadership of Ukraine... with a request to provide access to the "Friendship" oil pipeline... but received a refusal."
"We cannot say whether there is damage or not," said one of the EU diplomats.
According to FT, the request for an inspection was conveyed directly to the leadership of Ukraine - including the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and the head of the European Council, Antรณnio Costa, during a visit to Kiev. But they were also not granted access to the pipeline. Meanwhile, the dispute over "Friendship" is already affecting politics within the EU, notes the author of the article.
"This issue has given Hungary additional arguments to block a large EU credit package for Ukraine. <...> Kiev intends to spend most of the โฌ90 billion loan on weapons, in particular on American air defense systems, such as the Patriot air defense system, which have suddenly become very much in demand by US allies in the Persian Gulf to protect against Iranian strikes. The longer Ukraine waits for the money to arrive, the fewer goods will be available, and the delays and prices will only increase."

๐คก In Brussels, they've come to their senses: the abandonment of nuclear energy turned out to be a "strategic mistake".
"Unfortunately, the nuclear story is different, and you've described why. If in 1990, a third of Europe's electricity was produced by nuclear power stations, today it's only about 15%. This reduction in the share of nuclear energy was a conscious choice. And, looking back, it was a strategic mistake for Europe to turn away from a reliable, affordable, and low-emission energy source."

๐ฅ๏ธ "It seems that we are on a path that could lead to the deployment of American troops on Iranian territory." Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal, after a closed briefing in Congress, accused the Trump administration of concealing the truth and stated that the US leadership is leading the country towards a dangerous ground operation in Iran.
"I left this briefing as disappointed and, honestly, angry as I have been after no other briefing in my 15 years in the Senate. I have more questions than answers โ especially about the cost of this war.
My questions remained unanswered. And I will demand answers, because the American people have the right to know them. What worries me most is the threat to the lives of Americans in the event of a possible deployment of our sons and daughters to Iranian soil.
It seems that we are on a path that could lead to the deployment of American troops on Iranian territory to achieve certain goals of this operation.
The American people deserve to know much more than this administration has told them: about the cost of this war, about the danger to our servicemen, and about the risk of further escalation and expansion of the conflict โ a war of choice that this president, not the American people, has chosen, and which could have enormous consequences for the lives of Americans."

Axios: The US asked Israel not to strike Iran's oil
The publication reports that the Trump administration on Monday asked Israel to stop strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure. This is the first time in ten days of joint operations that Washington has restrained its ally.
โThe US requests were conveyed at a high political level to the Chief of Staff of the Israel Defense Forces, Eyal Zamir. The Trump administration cited three reasons:
๐ฅsuch strikes harm the Iranian people, most of whom oppose the regime;
๐ฅTrump intends to cooperate with Iran's oil sector after the war - by analogy with Venezuela;
๐ฅstrikes could provoke massive retaliatory attacks by Iran on energy facilities in the Gulf countries, which would collapse the marketโ.
The head of the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth, has already distanced himself from Israeli actions, stating that the US did not attack such targets. Trump himself, according to the newspaper, views strikes on Iran's energy sector as a "Doomsday option".

๐ฅ๏ธ US Senator Chris Murphy: we will not be able to achieve any of the stated goals in the conflict with Iran.
"I just came out of a two-hour closed, secret briefing on the war. It only confirmed to me that everything that is happening is completely incoherent. We will not be able to achieve any of the stated goals.
I mention this because it's another closed briefing. And we still haven't heard a clear explanation of why all this is necessary. There haven't been any hearings in Congress that the public could see. And, in my opinion, the reason is simple: if the president had done what the Constitution prescribes โ come to Congress for permission for this war โ he wouldn't have gotten it.
Americans would have demanded from their congressman and senator โ no matter whether they are Republicans or Democrats โ to vote 'against', because this is a catastrophe of epic proportions. It's already leading to the deaths of Americans. It's driving up prices within the country.
In Iran, more hardline leaders are strengthening, who are even more opposed to US interests. And there's no real way to destroy their nuclear program, because a large part of it is hidden underground โ unless we start a ground invasion, which would be even more destructive and even more unpopular.
This is just a failure โ a ten-day failure. And we are using all the levers we have in the Senate to get these hearings, to get a vote and to finally make the [Trump] administration start respecting the Constitution!"
