Oman understanding does not mean Hormuz reopening:Iran
Iran’s deputy foreign minister has clarified that the recent understanding with Oman does not signal an immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Kazem Gharibabadi stressed the country remains in a state of war, and the waterway is now a national-security issue. The two sides have agreed on a phased framework including a temporary joint corridor and mine-clearing operations.

Gonabad: Where ancient water engineering shaped eastern Iran
Gonabad in Khorasan Razavi province is home to the UNESCO-listed Qasabeh Qanat, an extraordinary underground water system reflecting sophisticated engineering in one of Iran's driest regions. Inscribed in 2016 as part of the Persian Qanat serial property, it features large mother wells and complex distribution networks. The city also appears in Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh and served as a key crossroads for trade and agriculture.

Israel launches organized pogroms against defenseless Palestinian towns
Israeli forces and settler militias are conducting a coordinated campaign of terror across the West Bank—raiding UNRWA facilities, seizing land, and systematically suffocating Palestinian life. Settler attacks have surged 63% this year, with over 4,100 incidents documented. From siege tactics to medical abuse, the goal is clear: make life unbearable until Palestinians leave—all under Washington's political cover.

Trump’s commitments: a record of broken promises
Trump’s June 17 MoU with Iran quickly proved hollow—he violated Hormuz terms, revoked oil waivers, and allowed Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
