🇺🇸🇻🇪 The US has released new pictures of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro who are now in an US jail since US arrested him at January this year

🇱🇧🇱🇧❌🇮🇱🇺🇸 — NEW: Ali al-Taher Ridge in southern Lebanon has become the most significant flashpoint in the Israel-Hezbollah conflict, with battles unfolding both above ground and inside a fortified underground complex housing Hezbollah's Badr Division command and Radwan Forces. Israeli 36th Division is besieging the area, while Washington proposes a "pilot zone" handover to the Lebanese Army — a plan Hezbollah has rejected as catastrophic to its tactical depth, according to MaxOsintIntel

🇺🇸❌🇪🇬🇮🇷 - The US Treasury Department has issued a sanction notice to Banque Misr's subsidiary in UAE, accusing it of facilitating "Iranian regime's access to US dollars." Banque Misr is Egypt's second largest bank. Its Emirati subsidiary is accused of processing $1.8 billion between January 2024 and June 2026 for 103 companies suspected of being part of Iranian shadow banking networks. The sanction notice has prompted the UAE to launch an in-depth investigation into the branch, which could potentially lead to the revocation of its banking license in the UAE. Egypt's Central Bank has clarified that the US sanction only applies to the dollar transactions of the Emirati Branch. @GeoPWatch

🇮🇷🇺🇸⚡️ — Mehr News Agency, citing a source:

The Iranian Armed Forces prevented 30 vessels that violated regulations from passing through the Strait of Hormuz over the past week. Passage through the Strait of Hormuz is restricted to the route designated by #Iran, with coordination and payment of the required fees. The current situation in the Strait of Hormuz has seen a sharp halt in maritime traffic and trade. Claims regarding mine-clearing operations in the Strait of Hormuz cannot be confirmed, and Washington has not provided any documentation to substantiate them.

🇷🇺🚫🇺🇦 — Kremlin:

The Russian Armed Forces are carrying out strikes against Ukrainian military infrastructure. Kyiv is receiving a more than adequate response to its strikes targeting Russia’s civilian economic sectors.

🇫🇮🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡️ — Finland’s President Alexander Stubb on Russia:

I don’t believe Russia will end this war because of an economic downturn, which we are actually seeing right now. You should never underestimate the Russians’ ability to endure hard economic times. You only have to go back to the Soviet period to understand that.



🇫🇮🇷🇺🇪🇺⚡️ — Finland’s President Alexander Stubb on Russia:

I'm sure we are approaching the day when it would be useful for Europeans to be in more direct contact with Russia, and especially because we need to avoid misunderstandings. So, dialogue will begin at some stage, but I just can't give you a date because I don't know it.



🇫🇮🇷🇺🇨🇳⚡️ — Finland’s President Alexander Stubb on Russia:

Russia will not use nuclear weapons. I had the Chinese foreign minister visiting me, and I raised the issue with him. He said, “We will never allow that to happen.” I think that’s a pretty good deterrent.



🇫🇮🇺🇸⚡️— Finland’s President Alexander Stubb on U.S. President Donald Trump:

Whether you like it or not, Trump is one of the most consequential American presidents in history. He does things and gets them through.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇫🇮🇺🇸⚡️ — Reporter: Why are you so sure that Russia would not attack us? Finland’s President Alexander Stubb:

Well, you can never be 100 percent certain about anything in this world, but quite frankly, from everything we see, everything we read, and everything we discuss, we simply do not see that at this point. And the reason is very simple. Russian troops are tied down in Ukraine, and right now they actually have a deficit. They have fewer and fewer soldiers in an increasingly complex world. I simply cannot imagine them suddenly mobilizing on two fronts.

🇷🇺❌🇺🇦 In the recent hours Ukraine capital Kiev was under Russian bombardment

🇮🇱❌🇱🇧 — An Israeli airstrike targeted the outskirts of the town of Nabatieh al-Fawqa in southern Lebanon.

🇫🇮🇷🇺🇺🇸⚡️ — Finland’s President Alexander Stubb on Russia:

So far, I do not see warfare. I don’t think Russia would ever want to attack the most powerful military alliance in the world, NATO. First, I have intelligence information. Second, we have deterrence, and that deterrence is stronger than that of any other military power anywhere in the world. It is based on conventional forces, missiles, and nuclear weapons. There is no reason for any power in the world to test the resolve of this alliance.

🇷🇺🇰🇵🇮🇷⚡️ — Reporter: Essentially, we now have two allies: North Korea and Iran. And many people are asking: how did we get to this point? How did we end up in such company? Russian FM Sergey Lavrov: And what’s wrong with the company? Reporter: Countries that were previously considered pariah states around the world have now become Russia’s main allies. And many people are asking why. Russian FM Sergey Lavrov: They were considered pariahs by those who imagined themselves to be the victors of the Cold War.

🇹🇷🇸🇦🇵🇰⚡️ — Turkish Foreign Ministry:

Istanbul will host tomorrow a meeting of the Strategic and Defense Committee established under the Mecca Agreement. Foreign and defense ministers, as well as military chiefs, from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan are expected to participate.

🇾🇪🇸🇦⚡️ — Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Ansar Allah (Houthi) government in the capital, Sana’a:

So-called humanitarian organizations operating in Yemen are responding to pressure from the Saudi regime and refusing to allow medicines into the country. The Saudi regime has used the humanitarian issue as a pressure tool for 12 years through entities tasked with providing humanitarian assistance. These actions reveal the extent of the violations being committed against the Yemeni people by the Saudi regime and its proxies. Yemen will not be broken by any pressure and will continue its struggle until it regains its legitimate rights.
