CENTCOM post, machine translation: 🚫 Claim: Iran’s foreign minister recently publicly claimed that Iran has not attacked civilians in neighboring countries. This claim is false. ✅ Fact: Iran has not only deliberately attacked civilian infrastructure, residential neighborhoods, and other facilities in neighboring countries along the Persian Gulf, but has also intentionally targeted civilian sailors at sea. These attacks have killed more than 20 people in recent months. Iran’s indiscriminate aggression is clear and unjustifiable. CENTCOM 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump, speaking Sunday at an election rally in Iowa, dismissed the possibility of a long, drawn-out war with the Islamic Republic of Iran like the wars in Vietnam and Afghanistan. He stressed that Washington had achieved military and financial victory, and that the confrontation would end very soon, “one way or another.” The U.S. president said that striking targets linked to Tehran had been unavoidable and had dealt a heavy blow to its capabilities. He added that achieving the military objectives would not rule out considering other options, and that the possibility of delivering a “final, heavy blow” remained if necessary. He also said that ending the crisis would lead to a significant drop in global oil prices and gasoline prices, so the conflict would not become a burden on the U.S. economy. In another part of his remarks, he warned against a repeat of what he called the “France scenario” and highlighted his administration’s achievement in bringing drug prices down to an unprecedented level over the past three decades. @ VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

According to Fox News, a private plane carrying 9 people crashed on Sunday afternoon in a residential neighborhood in South Florida, about 9 miles (approximately 14 kilometers) from Mar-a-Lago, the estate owned by U.S. President Donald Trump, and burst into flames. The fatal crash left at least 9 people dead. According to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the plane was bound for the Bahamas from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Texas when it struck the ground near the Crest Haven neighborhood. Data from the FlightRadar24 website shows that after flying at an altitude of 41,000 feet, the plane suddenly entered a steep descent to the right and slammed into the ground at tremendous speed. In the aftermath, emergency crews have closed sections of nearby roads and, declaring a high-risk, large-scale incident, have urged people to avoid the area until further notice. @VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

U.S. President Donald Trump, speaking on the sidelines of a campaign rally in Iowa, was asked by reporters about his phone call with the Israeli prime minister. “No, I’m not going to share any details. We had a very good conversation. We had a very good conversation,” he said. Asked whether he had also discussed Iran with Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump replied simply: “Yes, I did.” Trump’s positive description of the call comes after the news outlet Axios reported that the conversation focused on the status of Washington’s negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran and when military operations might potentially resume. According to Axios, citing Israeli and American sources, Netanyahu has urged Trump to attack Iran immediately after the U.S. midterm elections, while the U.S. president currently prefers to continue negotiations—a position that has raised concerns in Tel Aviv. The Israeli source described the call as “tough,” while the American side called it “direct.” At the same time, Trump is preparing for a possible return to large-scale military action alongside his diplomatic efforts. @VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline
