„Qatar intervened on behalf of the @realDonaldTrump administration and persuaded Iran to agree to a cease-fire with Israel, according to three diplomats briefed on the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive diplomacy.
@IranIntl_En @realDonaldTrump 2).
The deal, if confirmed, would indicate that the wealthy Gulf emirate was simultaneously condemning Iran for its attack on Al Udeid and working to persuade the Islamic Republic to agree to a cease-fire.”

„Early US intel assessment suggests strikes on Iran did not destroy nuclear sites, sources say
The analysis of the damage to the sites and the impact of the strikes on Iran’s nuclear ambitions is ongoing, and could change as more intelligence becomes available.
@RonFilipkowski @Acyn 2).
But the early findings are at odds with @POTUS @realDonaldTrump's repeated claims that the strikes »completely and totally obliterated« Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities. @SecDef @PeteHegseth also said on Sunday that Iran’s nuclear ambitions »have been obliterated«.
@RonFilipkowski @Acyn @POTUS @realDonaldTrump @SecDef @PeteHegseth 3).
Two of the people familiar with the assessment said Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed. One of the people said the centrifuges are largely »intact«.
– »So the (DIA) assessment is that the US set them back maybe a few months, tops« – this person added.

„China is heavily dependent on oil and gas from the Middle East, with about half of its seaborne crude oil imports transiting the Strait of Hormuz, a small strip of waterway along Iran’s coast, according to energy analytics firm @Vortexa.
@IranIntl_En @Vortexa 2).
Tehran’s parliament mulled closing the strait this week, according to the country’s state media.
@IranIntl_En @Vortexa 3).
Iran, which is subject to a harsh international sanctions regime, also relies on China to buy its oil, with @Vortexa estimating Chinese imports will reach 1.5 million barrels in June [1], nearly all of which transit through the Strait of Hormuz [2].”

„Tehran’s notorious Evin prison known for holding dissidents should not be a target, the UN Human Rights Office said today, a day after a reported Israeli strike on the complex [1].”
@IranIntl_En 2).
„OHCHR (@UNHumanRights) spokesperson Thameen Al-Kheetan told media in Geneva that Evin prison is not a military objective, according to the laws of war.
– »Targeting it constitutes a grave breach of international humanitarian law« – he said.
@IranIntl_En @UNHumanRights 3).
Political prisoners including journalists are held at Evin prison, but whether they are detained »arbitrarily« or in connection with »crimes they've actually committed«, the inmates must be protected, Mr Al-Kheetan insisted.

„In foul-mouthed tirade, @realDonaldTrump savages Israel for striking Iran, says it violated ceasefire
The @IAFsite ended up carrying out a small strike against an Iranian radar north of Tehran around the time Trump was talking to reporters, Israeli officials confirmed.

„Netanyahu told Trump he couldn't cancel the attack and that it was needed because Iran violated the ceasefire, an Axios [2] reporter said, citing an Israeli official [3].”

In a post on Truth Social, @realDonaldTrump urged Israel »do not drop those bombs« on Iran. Speaking to reporters outside the White House shortly afterwards, Trump said he was »not happy« with Israel.

– »There was one rocket that I guess was fired overboard after the time limit and now Israel is going out. These guys [have] got to calm down« – he said.
@IranIntl_En @realDonaldTrump 3).
The @POTUS continued:
– »We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they donʼt know what the fuck they're doing«.
In a later post, he said:
– »The ceasefire is in effect«.
