‼️ PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYS THE U.S.-IRAN MOU IS "OVER": President Trump said he no longer believes the memorandum of understanding with Iran has a future.
Trump said: "I think the MoU is over. I don't wanna deal with them anymore. They're scum. They're liars. We make a deal. Everyone's agreed. No nuclear weapon. We make a deal. They go outside, talk to the press, they say we never even talked about it. There's something wrong with them. They're cuckoo. As far as I'm concerned it's over."
He added: "I will talk to Witkoff and Kushner if they want to negotiate with Iran, but for me, this is a waste of time."
Prime Minister Netanyahu said: "If the deal achieves its goals, then yes, Iran will get sanctions relief, and that would help the regime resuscitate itself. But I don't see that happening yet."
💥 U.S. STRIKES IRAN AFTER ATTACKS ON SHIPPING: CENTCOM announced that the U.S. military struck more than 80 targets across Iran on July 7 after Iran attacked three commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
The operation targeted air defense systems, command-and-control networks, coastal radar sites, anti-ship missile capabilities, and more than 60 Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps small boats operating in and near the strait.
CENTCOM said Iran attacked the Marshall Islands-flagged M/T Al Rekayyat, the Saudi Arabia-flagged M/T Wedyan, and the Liberian-flagged M/T Cyprus Prosperity, calling the attacks violations of the ceasefire and freedom of navigation.
The U.S. military said its forces remain postured and prepared to hold Iran accountable for any further violations.
⚠️ IRAN RETALIATES; REGIONAL ALERTS ACTIVATED: Following the U.S. strikes, warning sirens sounded in Kuwait and Bahraini air defenses engaged Iranian missiles.
The IRGC claimed it launched a coordinated missile and drone attack against 85 U.S. military targets, including the U.S. Fifth Fleet, Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, and Salman Port.
Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters warned: "Any location from which attacks are launched against us or support is provided to the American army will be a legitimate target for our forces."
Iranian state media reported that an IRGC Navy member was killed in the U.S. strikes in Mahshahr.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf accused the U.S. of violating the U.S.-Iran MoU, while the IRGC claimed it shot down an American MQ-9 drone over Bushehr Province in southern Iran.
⚓ U.S. REIMPOSES OIL SANCTIONS AS QATAR PROTESTS TANKER ATTACK: After Iran's terrorist regime attacked ships in the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. revoked a general license that had temporarily allowed certain dealings involving Iranian oil and petrochemical products.
A U.S. official told Reuters: "The U.S. Treasury Department is revoking the general license that authorized the sale of Iranian oil. Iran's actions in the Strait of Hormuz were wholly unacceptable to the US and will be met with consequences."
Separately, UK Maritime Trade Operations reported that an unidentified projectile struck a tanker transiting the Strait of Hormuz, causing structural damage.
Qatar identified the vessel as a Qatari tanker. Doha condemned the attack, summoned Iran's deputy ambassador, and handed him an official protest note.
🛡️ REGIONAL SECURITY UPDATES: U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had been scheduled to arrive in Israel and meet separately with Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz, but Israeli media report that the visit has been canceled.
The European Aviation Safety Agency issued a new warning: "Flight operators should not operate in the Iranian and Iraqi airspaces. The suspension of flights in the Iranian and Iraqi airspaces will continue until the end of August."
