#️⃣ 🇺🇸 Trump:

When countries need help, they call America.

I don't always give it because sometimes they have not been very good to us.

NATO wasn't there for us, by the way.

#️⃣ 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran:

Nobody has any idea how successful we are in Iran.

You know who knows how well we are doing? Iran.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Iran:

One of the problems in Iran is that there is nobody to negotiate with. It's a problem.

It's the only country in the world where nobody wants to be president.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

Qatar and Pakistan, acting as mediators, are only exchanging messages and remain in contact, but this does not amount to negotiations.

We have not yet made a decision to resume negotiations with the United States.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

In the Islamabad memorandum of understanding, an “end to the war” was declared, and there is no ceasefire that would need to be extended.

What had been agreed upon was a 60-day period for negotiations toward a final agreement, which the United States violated, leading to the resumption of hostilities.

⭐️ THIS IS WHAT A DYING STAR LOOKS LIKE.

The James Webb Space Telescope captured the Lion Nebula — a cloud of gas and dust surrounding a dying star.

At its center is a white dwarf that is pushing away the surrounding gas and gradually destroying the dusty shell. Scientists estimate that the shell will completely disperse in around 10,000 years.

Experts say the Sun could look roughly like this in about 5 billion years, after it reaches the end of its life.

🔥 🇮🇹 MOUNT ETNA HAS BEEN ERUPTING CONTINUOUSLY FOR MORE THAN A WEEK.

Europe's largest and most active volcano has been erupting for over a week — something not seen since the 1970s.

Continuous ash emissions have reached Malta and even Libya, more than 400 km away, forcing the cancellation of over 1,000 flights to Sicily during peak tourist season.

There is currently no threat from lava, but scientists cannot predict when Etna will calm down. Its eruptions usually last only a few hours or days.

🥺 🇮🇷 AN OIL SLICK COVERING MORE THAN 300 SQ. KM HAS BEEN DETECTED IN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ — AN AREA EQUIVALENT TO AROUND 40,000 FOOTBALL FIELDS.

Iranian authorities said the pollution, which has reached Qeshm Island, is allegedly linked to a foreign cargo ship.

However, Reuters reported that it has not yet been independently confirmed what caused the spill or what substance is responsible for the pollution.

#️⃣ 🇮🇷🇺🇸 IRAN'S FOREIGN MINISTRY RESPONDS TO TRUMP'S PLAN TO DECLARE THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ U.S. TERRITORY:

«"The Strait of Hormuz cannot be seized by a tweet, an aircraft carrier, a decree, or an election speech. Accept reality once and for all: the Strait of Hormuz was, is, and will remain Iranian. This strait will be closed and opened only by order of Iran."»

#️⃣ 🇺🇸 The U.S. is pressuring Apple not to use Chinese memory chips, even as an AI-driven memory shortage pushes prices higher.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson quoted Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov to criticize U.S. foreign policy:

The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him.

#️⃣ 🇮🇷 Iran sent a formal complaint to the Red Cross that Qatar is holding three Iranian pilots whose Su-24s were shot down at the start of the war.

Six months later, Qatar still won't allow any contact with them.

Iran cited Geneva Convention articles requiring POWs be allowed to notify their families and file complaints.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Despite the unfriendly look on this particular picture, there are many where we’re smiling, Kim Jong Un and I get along GREAT!

#️⃣ 🇶🇦 Qatar has denied claims it detained three Iranian pilots, after Tehran called for their release.

A foreign ministry spokesperson described the claims as “misleading” amid ongoing diplomatic efforts.

#️⃣ 🇺🇸 Journalists traveling with Trump from Türkiye to Britain were kept unaware that he secretly switched planes because of a perceived Iranian threat.

The journalists said they felt deceived and potentially endangered, arguing that although they accept risks when covering the president, they had not consented to being unknowingly used in a security operation.

Some questioned whether the White House had adequately considered their safety and said the episode undermined their trust in the administration.
