According to Politico's report, shortly after Donald Trump, the US President, announced in a message Thursday morning that he intended to "target Iran very hard tonight," leaders from Persian Gulf and South Asian countries made last-minute calls to him to change his mind. They assured him that a preliminary agreement that would pave the way for more detailed negotiations is actually within reach. According to Politico, these previously unreported calls were made by Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Emir of Qatar, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the UAE, and Asim Munir, Pakistan's Defense Chief, according to two US government officials and one diplomat familiar with these calls. All three sources spoke to Politico on condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the diplomatic matter. Trump then announced on Truth Social that an agreement might be signed in the coming days. @VahidOOnLine This media outlet wrote that the discussions included reopening the Strait of Hormuz and Iran's access to more than $16 billion in financial resources. @VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

According to a senior U.S. defense official, commercial ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz was clearly threatened Thursday night after the Islamic Republic of Iran fired drones toward ships passing through this strategic waterway. According to Fox News, this official said: "It appears the Islamic Republic attempted tonight to attack commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. forces shot down two Iranian one-way attack drones." The official said that despite these attacks, maritime traffic through the strait continues. This development came hours after Donald Trump said an agreement with the Islamic Republic might be signed within days and the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened as part of this agreement. Following the sound of several explosions heard along Iran's southern coasts, the Fars News Agency, affiliated with the Revolutionary Guards, earlier reported citing "local sources" in Bandar Abbas that Islamic Republic forces prevented a tanker that had entered the restricted area of the Strait of Hormuz "without coordination" from passing through. @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic said in a phone interview that despite Qatar and Pakistan's activity as mediators, the diplomatic process of negotiations has been affected due to American actions. Ismail Baghaei emphasized that the major part of the agreement text has been finalized, but due to America's contradictory positions, it has caused turbulence and disruption in reaching an agreement. The Foreign Ministry spokesperson said in this interview: "Claims about the time and place of the agreement are merely media speculation, and until the relevant authorities of the system reach a final conclusion about each component of the agreement text, talking about the form of signing and its location is useless." Mr. Baghaei noted that the agreement text was clear to us from the beginning, but the American side kept raising unreasonable demands each time, and once again emphasized that Iran will not back down from its principled positions and red lines under pressure and threats. @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

According to this report, Iran sent its latest draft of the proposed agreement with America through Qatari mediators mid-week.

Bloomberg news agency, citing "informed sources," reported that senior national security officials from the United Arab Emirates and Iran met in person for the first time since the start of the American and Israeli war against Tehran. This meeting, which took place this week, according to Bloomberg, represents a significant shift in the approach of both sides and comes at a time when both countries have increasingly recognized the importance of calmer bilateral relations. The news agency says its sources did not want their names disclosed due to the sensitivity of the matter. According to this report, UAE leaders want their ambitious economic programs, including billion-dollar investments in increasing oil production and creating artificial intelligence data centers, to continue without disruption. This relationship is also important for Tehran, as the UAE was one of Tehran's largest trading partners before the war began and an important route for transferring Iran's sanctioned oil. According to Bloomberg sources, Abu Dhabi's recent contact with Iran was mainly aimed at achieving some kind of de-escalation with a government it considers an enemy. Since the Middle East war began on February 28 last year, Iran has targeted the UAE more than any other country with its attacks. Abu Dhabi has also responded several times and has taken the most aggressive position toward Iran among its Arab neighbors. However, it appears the UAE has now taken a path similar to Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which despite being targeted by Iran and its affiliated forces, are seeking to reduce tensions through diplomacy. According to Bloomberg, Saudi Arabia, whose energy facilities and military bases have been targeted, has resumed contacts with Tehran at the foreign minister level since early April. Qatar, whose major Ras Laffan natural gas facility was targeted, has been most eager for reconciliation and hosted a delegation from Iran late last month, increasingly playing a mediating role between Washington and Tehran. Bloomberg emphasized that all three Arab countries recognize the necessity of coexistence with a neighbor across the Persian Gulf with a population of 90 million and significant military capability, even despite the extensive damage it has suffered from American and Israeli bombing. @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

CNN news network announced on Thursday, citing a senior Pentagon official and two U.S. government officials, that United States military plans to seize Kharg Island in southern Iran have been prepared "months ago" but were set aside due to being "excessively risky." Donald Trump, the U.S. President, announced his desire to take control of this island as one of Iran's most important oil export infrastructure facilities just hours ago. CNN wrote, quoting American officials: "The prevailing view in the White House and Pentagon is that seizing Kharg Island or destroying this island's energy infrastructure would essentially bankrupt Iran and reduce its capabilities to the extent that it would no longer be able to continue the war." At the same time, government officials have told the American president that such an operation would require numerous ground forces and "could lead to heavy casualties among American forces." CNN has claimed that the Pentagon and White House consider any action to seize Kharg Island as a "final option"; an action that according to American officials "could change the balance of war, but would come at a very high cost." @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

The President of the United States appeared on Fox News morning show just minutes after this post was published and explained the post and the current escalating tensions between the United States and the Islamic Republic. 🔻 "My preference is to occupy Kharg" In this interview, he emphasized that Thursday evening will bring more severe attacks against the Iranian government than Wednesday evening, June 20. Announcing that "$250 million" worth of bombs were dropped on Iran in Wednesday's attacks, he added: "They [the Iranian government] are really surrendering, they just don't know it yet." He also said Washington continues to negotiate with Tehran. When the show host asked about occupying parts of Iran, Trump said his preference is "occupying Kharg Island," but he doubts American public opinion is ready to accept such action. He added: "We would gain enormous wealth from this, but I think the American people want to see us come home." Trump then compared occupying Kharg and Iran's oil facilities to the Venezuela experience, saying America has extracted "millions and millions of barrels of oil" from that country and transferred it to refineries in Houston, Louisiana and other locations - refineries that he says "work around the clock and generate enormous wealth." Trump said he would welcome implementing the same model with Iran, but isn't sure "the country is ready for it." 🔻 "I'm now less inclined to make a deal" Trump also said he's now less inclined to reach a deal with the Islamic Republic than three or four weeks ago. He added: "I don't know if America is ready to do what I really prefer to do." In another part of the interview, the Fox News host asked Trump if he's angry at the Islamic Republic. He replied: "I'm not angry. I don't get angry." About his proposed nuclear deal, he said: "My deal is a path to not having nuclear weapons." Trump added that Iran shouldn't be allowed to "develop or purchase" nuclear weapons and said both are included in his proposed agreement text, which the Iranian government has also agreed to. Trump also claimed "the Iranian government is finished" and added: "They no longer have a navy, air force, or air defense." He also mentioned that American aircraft fly over central Tehran and Islamic Republic officials "don't even know we're there." According to Trump, America has disabled all of the Islamic Republic's radars and air defense systems, a large portion of missiles and most of the government's missile launchers, and their drone capability has also "severely decreased." 🔻 "I don't want power plants to be damaged" Later, when the host asked about the possibility of targeting a power plant, Trump said: "Yes, it's possible, but I prefer not to do it, because when you do such things, people suffer." He also said about water facilities that cutting off water would be a "devastating blow" to the Iranian people and added: "I could say in one minute to shut it down, but the problem is people can no longer drink water." In the final part of this brief interview, Trump said Iranian people are afraid to protest because, according to him, "they don't have weapons" while the other side is armed. He once again referred to the widespread killing of people in the January protests over recent months and said Iranian government forces shoot at protesters, and when people face machine guns or snipers, holding gatherings becomes difficult. He stated that the Islamic Republic has killed at least "40 to 50 thousand people" and added that Iranian people cannot be blamed for being afraid to protest. 🔻 "I'm disappointed in the Kurds" The US President continued by saying America had sent weapons for the Iranian people, but has become "very disappointed" in the Kurds. He added that he opposed delivering weapons to the Kurds and believed the Kurds wouldn't deliver these weapons. Trump said: "I think they kept the weapons for themselves. This is shameful and I will remember this." Kurdish groups opposing the Islamic Republic, including the Kurdistan Democratic Party, Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan, Komala Party of Kurdistan Toilers, and Kurdistan Freedom Party (PAK) have denied receiving weapons from America in recent weeks. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

CENTCOM Post, Machine Translation: U.S. Forces Disable Third Blockade-Running Oil Tanker in Gulf of Oman Tampa, Florida — U.S. forces at 11:20 PM Eastern Time on June 10, after an oil tanker violated the blockade against Iran by attempting to transport Iranian oil, disabled this vessel in the Gulf of Oman. This is the third commercial ship disabled by U.S. forces this week. U.S. Central Command, CENTCOM, took action against the Guinea-Bissau-flagged oil tanker M/T Jalveer; this ship was attempting to transport oil from Iran through the Gulf of Oman route. A U.S. aircraft fired two Hellfire missiles at the ship's engine room after the ship's crew repeatedly refused to comply with U.S. forces' orders. Earlier this week, U.S. aircraft disabled two Palau-flagged ships, M/T Marivex and M/T Settebello, on Monday and Tuesday respectively. Marivex violated the blockade by attempting to move toward an Iranian port, and Settebello was also attempting to transport Iranian oil. Since the blockade began on April 13, CENTCOM forces have disabled 9 non-compliant vessels, redirected 135 ships that followed orders, and allowed passage to 42 vessels carrying humanitarian aid. This blockade is being enforced impartially against vessels from all countries entering or exiting Iranian ports and coastal areas, including all Iranian ports in the "Persian Gulf" and Gulf of Oman. @VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

Abdolrahim Soleimani Ardestani, a member of the Assembly of Seminary Teachers and Researchers in Qom, has been sentenced by the Special Court for Clergy to six years in prison, defrocking, and payment of a fine. Associates of Mr. Soleimani Ardestani announced that he is only willing to appeal this verdict on the condition that a public trial is held, otherwise he will accept the ruling without protest. He has been charged with accusations including insulting sacred values, insulting Ali and Mojtaba Khamenei, insulting Shiite sanctities, insulting religious authorities, and defaming the dignity of Shiite clergy. Soleimani Ardestani was arrested by security forces in April and transferred to Saheli Prison in Qom. Before his arrest, while analyzing the first message from Mojtaba Khamenei that praised Ali Khamenei, he wrote: "Your father's most important skill was calling his opponents and critics either lacking insight or foreign mercenaries, and he considered any confrontation with them justified! Among his moral traits, I found two characteristics particularly prominent: stubbornness and spreading hatred." @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline
