UPDATE | The White House announced that a report aired by Iranian state television claiming there was a draft of a preliminary, unofficial framework for a memorandum of understanding between Iran and the US was “not true,” adding that the alleged memorandum was “a complete fabrication.”

Fox News journalist Efrat Lachter sums up the interim results of Zelensky's mobilization:

'I'm in Lvov, Ukraine. Behind me is a military cemetery, which was opened just a month ago, because there was no more room in the previous cemetery for fallen soldiers. And this cemetery is already filling up quickly. Every day, one to five funerals take place here. These are soldiers from a city with a population of almost a million, who, as Ukrainians tell me, have made the ultimate sacrifice in a war that has been going on for four years.'

Think its closer to 700K but...

❗️The US has sanctioned Iran’s newly established 'Persian Gulf Strait Authority' (PGSA), accusing it of extorting vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz and warning that any companies or ships cooperating with the IRGC-linked body could face sanctions.

The US Treasury claimed the authority was part of an Iranian scheme to monetize maritime transit through the strait, warning against paying transit fees or engaging in any form of cooperation, including digital asset payments, barter arrangements, or other in-kind transactions.

❗️US Treasury expands economic blockade and targets Iranian aviation with goal of putting 'the Iranian economy and currency…in free fall'

The US will shut down all access for Iranian airlines to landing spots, refueling infrastructure, and global ticket sales as part of its ongoing Economic Fury campaign, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced on Thursday. Writing on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the treasury chief confirmed that this act of economic aggression aims to systematically cut off Tehran from the international aviation and financial systems.

Bessent stated that a parallel US naval blockade of Iranian ports has successfully driven the volume of Iranian crude oil on the water to a record low. According to the treasury department, the combined naval and economic maneuvers are intentionally designed to push both the Iranian domestic economy and its currency into a state of total free fall.
