According to a New York Post report, one of the final points of disagreement on the path to a potential agreement between Washington and Tehran is how to gradually release Iran's assets held in Qatar that are designated for humanitarian purposes. Based on this report, the financial resources in question will not be placed directly at the Iranian government's disposal, but rather will be used to purchase food supplies and medical equipment, which will then be shipped to Iran. The New York Post, citing a U.S. government official, wrote that the gradual payment of these resources will depend on Iran's implementation of commitments, including reopening the Strait of Hormuz and clearing mines from the Strait of Hormuz. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

The US Treasury Secretary also added that Washington, in close cooperation with its European allies, is tracking and seizing properties and real estate, including villas and houses belonging to these individuals throughout Europe. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

The Wall Street Journal revealed in an exclusive report on Friday, May 29th, citing informed sources, that the United Arab Emirates has conducted dozens of airstrikes against positions inside Iran during the war. Wall Street Journal sources say the UAE's role in this military campaign has been "much deeper" than previously reported. According to this report, these attacks were carried out with full coordination from Washington and Tel Aviv, relying on intelligence provided by them. UAE targets included Qeshm and Abu Musa islands in the Strait of Hormuz, Bandar Abbas, the Lavan Island oil refinery, and the Asaluyeh petrochemical complex. The strikes on Asaluyeh, which were carried out jointly with Israel in response to Islamic Republic attacks on UAE energy infrastructure, sparked intense international reactions and forced Washington to ask Israel to halt attacks on energy facilities. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump reposted a post from Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, on Truth Social, in which it was written: After examining Iran's war this week, I am convinced Trump is on the verge of a historic victory #IranIntlbrk The post that Gingrich wrote 8 hours ago, machine translation: After spending this week examining Iran's war, I am now convinced that President Trump is on the verge of a historic victory. The real turning point for me came when I examined President Trump's decisions and maneuvers not from the perspective of American unilateralism, but from the perspective of the leader of a remarkable historic coalition; the largest coalition ever formed in the modern Middle East. Everyone knows that Israel is an important ally. But what is less talked about is the depth of support from the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and other countries in the region. It must be very thought-provoking for Iran's dictatorship to realize that it doesn't even have one ally willing to challenge America's naval blockade. Slowly, gradually, and cautiously, our European allies are also lining up to help in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz. Much of President Trump's maneuvers against Iran make sense when you see him not merely as a unilateralist American president, but as the leader of a coalition. I have spent much of the past few weeks examining military options; including victory in the battle of the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz and, if necessary, using a shocking and crushing level of military power; similar to what President Nixon and Secretary of State Kissinger employed against Hanoi and Haiphong at Christmas 1972; an action that both leaders believed convinced North Vietnam to accept a ceasefire and release American prisoners. If this were a unilateral American campaign, I could enthusiastically support a more aggressive military campaign. But at the same time, it is clear that such action would tear the coalition apart, as our Arab allies are convinced that Iran can still inflict enormous damage on their oil fields and infrastructure. Coalitions inherently operate slower than unilateral campaigns. However, coalitions ultimately bring far greater power to bear. I, like everyone else, am frustrated with the pace of negotiations with this dictatorship; but after examining the balance of power and options available to the coalition on one side, and Iran's religious dictatorship on the other, I am ready to say that President Trump's coalition leadership – something virtually none of his critics want to acknowledge – is on the verge of achieving a massive historic victory. And if Iran's dictatorship ultimately proves to be desperately committed to a suicidal position, there will be ample time for a military campaign of enormous power and effectiveness. In any case, we are on the verge of an amazing victory for our values and for a safer Middle East. #NewtGingrich 📡 @VahidOnline

Esmaeil Baghaei, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman, said in an interview with IRIB that message exchanges are continuing but no agreement has been finalized yet, adding that the management of the Strait of Hormuz should be determined by Iran and Oman. He reiterated: "At this stage, we are focused on ending the war and we have no negotiations regarding the nuclear file." These statements from Iran come as Mr. Trump has presented a list of demands that he says Iran must fulfill, including Iran's commitment to not acquiring nuclear weapons, opening the Strait of Hormuz without collecting tolls, complete demining of this waterway, and the removal of Iran's enriched uranium stockpiles with US cooperation and under agency supervision, followed by the destruction of these materials. @ VahidHeadline Earlier: Fars News Agency, close to the Revolutionary Guards, also quoted another Iranian source calling the US President's remarks about a possible agreement with Iran "a mix of truth and lies." This source said that there is no clause in the agreement text about opening the Strait of Hormuz without collecting tolls and called the understanding about destroying Iran's uranium stockpiles "baseless" as well. @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

Mahdi Khanalizadeh, a member of the Islamic Republic's negotiating team's media unit, wrote that in the text of the potential agreement, eight out of 10 clauses from the Supreme National Security Council's statement that was approved by Mojtaba Khamenei have not been observed and have been trampled upon. He added that the current memorandum of understanding contradicts the Supreme National Security Council's ceasefire statement, and it has become clear that the post-Islamabad negotiations were fundamentally not conducted based on the leadership's conditions. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

☄️ Trump's post, machine translation: Iran must accept that it will never have nuclear weapons or bombs. The Strait of Hormuz must immediately open, without conditions, for the free passage of ships in both directions. All naval mines, if they exist, will be removed; we have destroyed a large number of these mines through explosions with our extraordinary underwater minesweepers. Iran must also immediately collect or detonate any remaining mines, which won't be many in number. Ships that were trapped in the Strait due to our amazing and unprecedented naval blockade ــ ❗️ a blockade that will now be lifted ــ can begin the process of "returning home"! From me, your beloved president, give my regards to your wives, husbands, fathers, mothers and families! Enriched materials, sometimes referred to as "nuclear dust" and buried deep underground; while mountains that practically collapsed due to the powerful attack of our B-2 bombers 11 months ago are located above them, ❗️ will be extracted from underground by the United States; a country that, according to the agreement, along with China is the only country with the mechanical capability to do such work. This will be done in coordination and close cooperation with the Islamic Republic of Iran as well as the International Atomic Energy Agency, and then these materials will be destroyed. ❗️ Until further notice, no money will be exchanged. Agreement has also been reached on other matters of much lesser importance. 💥 I will now meet in the situation room to make the final decision. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Scott Besent, US Treasury Secretary, announced on Thursday, May 28th, that Oman, after receiving Washington's warning about the potential consequences of participating in a plan to collect tolls from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, has assured America that it has no plan to implement such a scheme. Besent said at a White House press conference on Thursday that he had spoken with the Omani ambassador that morning and heard from him that Muscat has no plan to collect tolls in the Strait of Hormuz. He added: "I told him this matter is fundamentally unacceptable and he also does not want to put Omani individuals or Omani financial institutions at risk of sanctions." Hours earlier, Besent had warned in a message on social media platform X that the US Treasury Department would target with sanctions any individual or entity that directly or indirectly plays a role in facilitating toll collection in the Strait of Hormuz. He had specified that any potential partner in this plan would also face punishment and sanctions. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Al Arabiya network reported, citing informed sources, that the Islamic Republic wants to transfer its enriched uranium to China, on the condition that China guarantees it will not deliver these materials to the United States. According to these sources, many points related to the Islamic Republic's nuclear program have been resolved in the ongoing negotiations. Based on this report, the Islamic Republic has agreed to international oversight of its nuclear facilities to prevent their shutdown. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, the Islamic Republic's senior negotiator with America, threatened on Friday that Tehran will obtain its desired concessions in the war-ending agreement with "missiles" and will not take any action before Washington acts on this agreement. He also wrote on X: "We have no trust in guarantees and words, only actions are the measure." This stance came one day after several Western media outlets reported that the US and Iran had reached an understanding to extend the ceasefire and lift restrictions on ship transit through the Strait of Hormuz, but this agreement awaits the final decision and signature of Donald Trump, the US President. Qalibaf declared in his message that "no action will be taken before action by the opposing side." On the other hand, media outlets close to the Revolutionary Guards say reports about an agreement between Tehran and Washington are not accurate. Tasnim News Agency quoted an "informed source" saying: "The agreement text has not been finalized as of this moment." @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

🔴 The Abdorrahman Boroumand Foundation has documented the execution of 660 cases by the Islamic Republic since the beginning of this year. However, due to the secretive and non-transparent nature of Iran's judicial system, the actual number is likely much higher than this figure. 🔸 Since the war began, the execution rate of protesters and individuals accused of espionage and similar charges against national security has increased at an alarming pace. "Forced confessions" from victims have been the main "evidence" used in these deadly verdicts. 🔸 These confessions are extracted under completely ambiguous conditions and under severe physical and psychological pressure. The Islamic Republic continuously broadcasts these forced confessions on state media to use them as a tool to justify executions and suppress public opposition. #No_to_execution @IranRights
