🛡️ NETANYAHU, TRUMP HOLD TALKS AS ISRAEL REMAINS ON HIGH ALERT: Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump are holding direct talks regarding tensions with Iran, according to the Israeli Broadcasting Authority.
The Israeli Broadcasting Authority also reports that Israel remains in a state of high alert, with IDF Chief of Staff LTG Eyal Zamir holding discussions with senior military officials.
✈️ U.S. REINFORCES MILITARY POSTURE: The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reports that the United States has begun redeploying aerial refueling aircraft to Israel and the broader Middle East in recent hours.
Separately, more than 20 U.S. Navy warships are currently patrolling waters across the Middle East as U.S. Central Command continues promoting regional security and stability. Last month, U.S. naval warships and aircraft also transited the Arabian Sea in close formation, demonstrating American military strength and firepower.
⚠️ WASHINGTON CONSIDERING FURTHER ACTION: A U.S. official told CNN, "We are considering our next steps against Iran after strikes put the agreement between us on the brink of collapse."
‼️ IRAN THREATENS BROADER MILITARY AND NUCLEAR ESCALATION: A spokesperson for the National Security Commission of Iran's Majlis, speaking via Fars News, said Iran would respond to renewed U.S. attacks with an "all-out, surprise offensive" using options that were "unexecuted" during the previous 40-day war.
The spokesperson also said legislation is prepared for consideration in the Majlis to evaluate withdrawing from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), closing the Bab al-Mandab Strait in addition to the Strait of Hormuz if hostilities resume, and placing changes to Iran's nuclear doctrine on the agenda should the country face what it describes as an "existential threat."
🗣️ IRANIAN DEPUTY FOREIGN MINISTER RESPONDS TO TRUMP: Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs, Gharibabadi, said: "Trump's statements today, from insulting the Iranian nation to threatening further attacks, are not a sign of strength, but rather an admission of the failure of a policy built on brute force, sanctions, and threats for years, which could not bring the Iranian nation to its knees. With the criminal and murderous Trump, one must speak in his own language; apparently, he understands the language of force better!"
