🇵🇰🇮🇱⚡- "Israel is evil and a curse for humanity, while peace talks are underway in Islamabad, genocide is being committed in Lebanon. Innocent citizens are being killed by Israel, first Gaza, then Iran and now Lebanon, bloodletting continues unabated. I hope and pray people who created this cancerous state on Palestinian land to get rid of European jews burn in hell," - Khawaja Asif, Pakistan's Defense Minister.

Asif's comments have caused mass hysteria in the Israeli media.

🇵🇰🇮🇱⚡- "Sweetheart, I suggest you check out what happened to the last country that threatened to destroy Israel," - Yinon Mahal of Israeli Channel 14.

🇵🇰🇮🇱⚡- "Israel views very gravely these blatant antisemitic blood libels from a government claiming to “mediate peace”.

Calling the Jewish state “cancerous” is effectively calling for its annihilation.
Israel will defend itself against terrorists who vow its destruction," - Gideon Sa'ar, Israel's Foreign Minister.

🇵🇰🇮🇱⚡- "Pakistan Defence Minister’s call for Israel’s annihilation is outrageous. This is not a statement that can be tolerated from any government, especially not from one that claims to be a neutral arbiter for peace," - Netanyahu's Press Office.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱 — According to a Walla and Maariv poll released yesterday in Israel, 46% of Israelis believe the U.S. and Israel did not achieve victory, while 22% believe victory was achieved; the remaining polled Israelis did not see a clear victory for either side. 63% of polled Israelis were dissatisfied with the outcome of the war and 43% expressed dissatisfaction with Donald Trump's actions during the conflict.

A YouGov poll in the U.S. showed different results: 34% of Americans believe the U.S. won the war, compared to 14% who favored Iran as the winning side. 34% responded that no side clearly won, and 16% were unsure.

By comparison, in another Western country, 58% of French people estimate that Iran won the war in the Middle East, according to an Odoxa-Backbone poll for Le Figaro.

🇮🇱🇧🇪⚡️- Israel has been using at least one civilian cargo airline to move military equipment across the world.

Belgian media RTL revealed today that Belgian authorities uncovered military equipment from the United Kingdom that was supposed to be loaded as the cargo of a Challenge Airlines aircraft in Liège's airport in late March. Belgium had banned the transit of military equipment destined to Israel several weeks prior to this discovery.

Challenge Airlines is an Israeli civilian company specialized in non-standard air cargo but has never mentioned military equipment on their website nor on their registered cargo. This airline has been operating numerous flights between Tel-Aviv, the U.S. and Belgium for months.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷/🇵🇰 BREAKING: Two Iranian planes are now on their way to Islamabad, Pakistan

Very likely the Iranian delegation. Unclear of the exact composition of said delegation.

@Middle_East_Spectator

NEW: After a call with Trump, Netanyahu changed Israel’s strike policy in Lebanon.

From now on, every strike in Beirut requires special approvals — including Netanyahu’s personal sign-off.

An Israeli official says there is no ceasefire, but attacks have been significantly reduced and are now under tighter political restrictions.

Professor John Mearsheimer on Iran:

Trump is desperate. We are playing a losing hand.

This would destroy far more than a presidency. He knows this.

He threatened extermination — because escalation failed. By evening, he backs off.

He basically says: I concede defeat.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 BREAKING: The U.S. has authorized the release of $6 billion dollars in frozen Iranian funds

Qatari and Korean representatives are working to transfer the money to Iran within days.

With the announcement of a ceasefire in Lebanon expected tomorrow, and the release of frozen Iranian funds, negotiations in Islamabad can now begin according to Iran’s 10-points.

🇺🇸⚡️- “Trump promises mass pardons to staff before leaving office.” - WSJ.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱⚡- "The Israeli army is preparing for the possibility of a collapse of the talks between Washington and Tehran and a resumption of attacks.

If no substantial agreement is reached, we will be forced to return to Iran once again," - Israeli Channel 11.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇵🇰⚡️- Tasnim News has released the Iranian delegation for the US-Iran talks.

It should be noted that the Iranian delegation includes:

- Abbas Araghachi, Foreign Minister, who is largely considered a reformist.

- Mohammed Bagher Ghalibaf, Speaker of the Parliament of Iran, a former IRGC commander who is hardline but seen as more pragmatic.

- Mohammed Bagher Zolghadr, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, who is considered one of the most hardline IRGC figures in the country.

The participation of Zolghadr indicates top IRGC commanders want direct representation during the meetings, unlike previous rounds of negotiation.

The U.S. is reinforcing its military presence in the Middle East ahead of upcoming U.S.–Iran negotiations in Pakistan.

Fighter and attack aircraft have already arrived.

1,500–2,000 troops from the 82nd Airborne Division may deploy soon.

The USS George H.W. Bush carrier strike group is en route from the Atlantic.

The USS Boxer and the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit are also heading to the region from the Pacific.

Qalibaf exits the plane first, Araqchi follows behind.

It’s clear who’s in charge of this delegation, and by extension, the country.

(Notice the complete absence of Pezeshkian or anyone close to the reformist inner circle like Takht-Ravanchi or Aref)

The ceasefire will only be extended if JD Vance returns from Pakistan with “some sort of deliverable.”
