#️⃣ 🇺🇸🇮🇷 THE WHITE HOUSE HAS NOTIFIED THE U.S. CONGRESS THAT IT CONSIDERS THE WAR WITH IRAN TO BE OVER — AP

“The military actions that began on February 28, 2026, have ended,” the message sent by U.S. President Donald Trump to Speaker of the House (lower chamber of the U.S. Congress) Mike Johnson states

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Cuba:

We will be taking it over almost immediately. On the way back from Iran, we’ll maybe have the USS Abraham Lincoln come in off shore, and they’ll give up.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran:

Maybe we’re better off not making a deal at all.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran:

We don’t know who the hell we’re dealing with.

They call up, ‘This is Mohammed so-and-so.’ I say, ‘Are you a leader? We’re looking… we’re looking for a leader.’

It’s the only country in the world — nobody wants to be a leader.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I took three cognitive tests. Aced all of them. The first question is very easy -- it's a lion, a giraffe, a bear, and a shark. They say, "Which one is the bear?"

💨 🇮🇱🇱🇧 Two Israeli airstrikes targeted Zawtar al-Sharqiyah in southern Lebanon.

#️⃣ 🇺🇸 Today: Trump posted a photo in which his face is added to Mount Rushmore.

#️⃣ 🇾🇪 Yemeni authorities reported the capture of the oil tanker EUREKA off the coast of Shabwa province by unknown armed individuals, likely Somali pirates.

💬 🇺🇸 The White House posted a video in which Trump says “winning” for an hour.

“This is evident from the way Trump ‘could not get out’ of the war with Iran because of Lebanon.”

“You cannot use the war with Iran as a pretext for seizing land from a sovereign state. This is not your country.”

#️⃣ 🇮🇷 Iran sent a 14-part reply (via a Pakistani mediator) to a U.S. proposal about ending the war. While the U.S. suggested a 2-month ceasefire, Iran wants everything settled within 30 days and is pushing for a complete end to the war rather than a temporary truce.

Its proposal includes security guarantees against future attacks, removal of U.S. forces from nearby areas, lifting naval restrictions, releasing frozen Iranian funds, compensation, lifting sanctions, and ending fighting across all fronts, along with new rules for the Strait of Hormuz.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I will soon be reviewing the plan that Iran has just sent to us, but can't imagine that it would be acceptable in that they have not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done to Humanity, and the World, over the last 47 years. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

#️⃣ 🇮🇱 Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir marked his 50th birthday with a gift from his wife: a cake depicting a gallows.

#️⃣ 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran submitted a 14-point proposal to the United States outlining a two-stage plan:

First month: Negotiate a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, lift the U.S. naval blockade, and end the wars in Iran and Lebanon.

Second phase: After that deal, begin another month of talks focused on Iran’s nuclear program.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: 85% of Iran's missile-making capabilities has been eliminated. Is that other 15% important?

Trump: Well, I'd like to eliminate it.

#️⃣ 🇨🇳 China’s Ministry of Commerce told Chinese companies: Do NOT comply with U.S. sanctions on certain Chinese oil refiners.

The U.S. had sanctioned these firms for buying oil from Iran.

China says the sanctions are illegal “extraterritorial” overreach.

China is protecting its oil trade with Iran and pushing back against U.S. pressure.

😵‍💫 🇮🇷🇵🇰 A massive convoy of fuel smugglers was filmed on the Iran–Pakistan border. The footage was taken east of the border city of Pirkor. It shows thousands of Iranians transporting fuel. Previously, the IRGC fought against such operations, but now the authorities are turning a blind eye to the smugglers’ activities, as it ultimately helps slightly relieve the overfilled oil storage facilities.

🚀 🇺🇸 The United States is working on a new nuclear “bunker-buster” bomb — The War Zone. The project in question is the Nuclear Deterrent System-Air-delivered (NDS-A), a potential successor to the existing B61-11 nuclear bomb. About $100 million is planned to be allocated for its development as part of the 2027 budget. It is noted that the new system is at an early stage (concept phase) and is intended to strike deeply fortified underground facilities.
