🏆 FIFA WORLD CUP 2026. SPAIN VS CAPE VERDE

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth: The U.S. military moved seamlessly from major combat operations to a world-class blockade. We can make that transition again very quickly and even more powerfully than ever. At the direction of President Trump, the war department will ensure that Iran never has a nuclear weapon—never. We’d prefer to do it the nice way, through a deal led by our great vice president and negotiating team, or we can do it the hard way.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth: Threatening to shoot missiles and drones at ships—commercial ships that are lawfully transiting international waters—that is not control. That’s piracy. That’s terrorism.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth: You like to say publicly, Iran, that you control the Strait of Hormuz, but you don’t have a Navy or real domain awareness. You can’t control anything.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth: To the Iranian military and the IRGC: we know what military assets you are moving and where you are moving them to.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran’s Ghalibaf: The completion and consolidation of a comprehensive ceasefire in Lebanon will be the result of the resistance and steadfast struggle of the great Hezbollah and the unity of the Axis of Resistance.

💬 🇺🇸🇮🇷 White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt: Look at how gas prices have decreased over the past year since Trump was in office.
