Mural honoring Ismail Haniyeh unveiled in Tehran
On the second anniversary of Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh's assassination in Tehran (July 31, 2024), a mural was unveiled at Jomhouri and Valiasr avenues. The artwork features a framed photograph of Haniyeh embracing martyred Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, flanked by Iranian and Palestinian flags. Designed by Mohammad Amin Emami and Sina Ra'yat-doost, the mural serves as a public tribute to Haniyeh's legacy and Palestinian resilience. The Art Bureau uses urban art to keep narratives of struggle present. Haniyeh, born in Gaza's Shati refugee camp in 1963, led Hamas's political bureau from 2017 until his assassination.

🔴 Baghaei: Understanding with Oman does not mean Strait is open
🔹Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmail Baghaei clarified that the understanding with Oman on a new shipping route does not mean the Strait of Hormuz is being opened or closed.
🔹"We must ensure the Strait is not exploited by aggressors against Iran," he said, stressing that the closure is due to US violations, not Oman.
🔹Baghaei warned that any country providing territory or logistics to support US aggression will be treated as an aggressor and may face legitimate defensive action.
🔹"No one should imagine that US threats or media pressure will cause Iran to deviate from its principled positions," he added.

Hybrid war arrives against Spain
This analysis argues that the July 30 Ceuta border breach—where nearly 50,000 people entered from Morocco, with at least 90 deaths—constitutes a "hybrid war" against Spain, allegedly backed by Israel to punish Madrid for its pro-Palestinian stance (recognizing Palestine in May 2024, arms embargo, banning Israeli-linked ships and military aircraft). It cites pro-Israeli analysts urging Morocco to reclaim Ceuta and Melilla, and Morocco's 2020 Abraham Accords recognition of Western Sahara in exchange for US support. The crisis has exposed EU fractures, with Italy and other nations suspending Schengen agreements. The article identifies beneficiaries: Morocco, Israel, the Trump administration (Vice President Vance blamed "radical left globalist policies"), and Spain's far-right Vox party. It concludes that distancing from the US and Israel "comes at a price."

Israel intensifies Gaza killings to quash Hamas's disarmament plan
This analysis argues that Israel has intensified attacks in Gaza—killing at least 11 Palestinians on Sunday, with over 1,200 killed since the ceasefire began (including ~260 children)—to undermine Hamas's Friday agreement to disarm and transfer power to a Palestinian technocratic "Gaza Peace Board." Former Israeli ambassador Alon Pinkas stated Israel is "absolutely not" happy with the US-brokered deal and has submitted a reservation. The article claims Israel's ruling extremists seek to depopulate Palestine, using the October 7 attack as a pretext for ethnic cleansing. It notes Israel's failure to withdraw to the "Yellow Line" buffer zone or halt attacks. The author concludes that extremists are defying the US to destroy what remains of Palestine.
