Mehr News Agency @mehrnews_en Examining Trump’s Claims on Iran’s Missile Development In recent statements former President Donald Trump has asserted that Iran is developing missiles capable of threatening Europe and U.S. military bases in the region. He further claims that these advancements include missiles that could potentially reach American soil. However this assertion has been met with strong rebuttals. Experts argue that Trump's claims regarding Iran's missile capabilities are unfounded and largely influenced by pressure from the Israeli regime. Iranian officials have consistently maintained that their missiles serve defensive purposes only. Over the past four decades Iran has utilized its missile technology solely for defensive operations never employing it for offensive strikes against any nation. Furthermore missiles are classified as conventional military weapons and under international law sovereign nations possess the right to develop and maintain such defensive tools. Thus the narrative presented by Trump is deemed to be entirely baseless. 2 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail

Fars News Agency @farsnews_en Israeli Minister’s Controversial Eviction Orders Highlight Ongoing Tensions in West Bank Itamar Ben Gvir the Israeli Minister of National Security has once again showcased a troubling trend of escalating lawlessness and violence against Palestinians. In a recent incident he personally delivered eviction orders for Palestinian homes in the West Bank disregarding legal ownership claims made by the residents. During this confrontation a homeowner presented documentation proving that the land was registered under his family's name. However Ben Gvir dismissed the significance of these documents stating "I do not care... Jews are above the law."

IRNA News Agency @irnanews_en Former Pakistani Diplomat Warns U.S. Confrontation with Iran Would Backfire A former Pakistani diplomat and naval commander, Faisal Ali Shah, has expressed that any confrontation initiated by the United States against the Islamic Republic of Iran would ultimately be detrimental to Washington. He emphasized that despite Donald Trump's efforts to maintain his reputation and the contradictory actions that have led to global turmoil, reaching a mutually beneficial agreement remains a coveted outcome for all parties involved. Shah pointed out that any display of American military might in the region or attempts at direct confrontation with Iran are unlikely to yield favorable results. Meanwhile, Middle Eastern nations are actively seeking diplomatic solutions, although Israel is making significant efforts to prevent any concessions from the U.S. to Iran.On the diplomatic front the contradictory statements from U.S. officials have only added to the prevailing uncertainties. Trump's series of ultimatums to Tehran coupled with claims of advancing diplomacy reflect a perplexing stance that sends mixed signals contributing to global instability. As the United States has amassed a substantial naval presence around Iran it seems crucial for Trump to salvage his standing whether or not conflict ensues. Should armed confrontation arise the situation may not unfold as favorably as the U.S. desires. In the event of a potential agreement between Tehran and Washington a win-win scenario could emerge. Iran may hope for the lifting of unilateral sanctions to alleviate its economic struggles while Trump could successfully conclude this matter without firing a single shot. This outcome appears to be in line with the aspirations of many Americans. 5 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail
House of Mellat News Agency @icana_en Legal Action Required Against Desecration of the Iranian Flag The public prosecutor must address the alarming incidents of flag burning and disrespect towards the Iranian flag as emphasized by a member of the Legal and Judicial Commission of the Parliament Mr. Naghdali. He stated that the sacred flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran serves as a fundamental symbol of the Islamic system. Given the presence of the revered name of God on the flag any act of burning or insulting it constitutes an affront to religious sanctities and is a clear violation of Article 513 of the Islamic Penal Code. It is crucial to prevent individuals who are either oblivious self-betraying or influenced by adversarial propaganda from setting fire to this emblem of national identity. The prosecutor is urged to pursue legal action against those responsible for such offenses ensuring they face prosecution and punishment. 8 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail
IRNA News Agency @irnanews_en Navigating Complex Foreign Policy: Strategies for Effective Negotiation with the United States In a recent discussion Nasratollah Tajik emphasized the necessity of establishing a 'way out' for the opposing party in negotiations which he argues is essential for achieving a lasting agreement. He pointed out that the current state of Iran's foreign policy is more challenging and complex than at any previous time during the Islamic Republic's history. We find ourselves at a critical juncture in foreign policy that not only affects domestic affairs but could also have significant national security implications. If this issue is resolved effectively it could accelerate the development and stabilization of Iran's regional and international position. Conversely if it ends poorly it could exacerbate existing problems and lead to a loss of control over the situation. This stark dichotomy makes the roles of policymakers and diplomats exceedingly challenging. In any negotiation parties must not only acknowledge each other's concerns but also communicate their true capabilities clearly to prevent any miscalculations. Given that any mistake or oversight could derail the negotiations and escalate into military conflict fostering a degree of mutual trust—at least to the extent that both sides are seeking understanding and resolution—is imperative. Both Iran and the United States are undoubtedly aware of the consequences of war; the central question remains how to achieve a balanced and acceptable solution. Beyond the emergence of a new global order and shifting power dynamics the geopolitical significance of Iran and the government's investments in military hardware to enhance deterrence against regional and international developments are crucial. The ultimate aim of Donald Trump is to maintain Israel's dominance in the region maximize its security and promote the concept of a 'Greater Israel.' He seeks to damage Iran's missile facilities either through negotiations or if necessary a limited immediate military strike. However Trump is not inclined to engage in a broad war—either within Iran or in the waters of the Persian Gulf—due to internal political reasons the upcoming midterm elections and the potential costs to the United States. Consequently his preferred scenario involves a limited action to achieve his objectives. Thus his primary goal is to ensure maximum security and reinforce Israel's superiority in the region primarily through negotiation. Yet given his personality traits and psychological profile his approach to negotiation lacks a diplomatic touch. A fundamental principle of negotiation is that parties must create conditions that prevent either side from reaching an impasse or complete blockage. If the aim of negotiations is to corner the opposing party like a chess opponent in a 'checkmate' situation any agreement reached on paper will likely face serious doubts regarding its practical and sustainable implementation. Negotiations characterized by ultimatums and deadlines can serve dual purposes: they can act as psychological warfare and manage the political and media landscape while also providing legitimacy for potential subsequent actions. By leveraging certain capacities one can play the role of a 'delaying factor' against any military action. A critical capacity in this context is a nuanced understanding of Trump's political psychology; he is keen on portraying himself as a leader who ends wars and achieves notable successes. If this aspect is accurately incorporated into diplomatic calculations it may be possible to create conditions for a new negotiation framework that moves away from confrontation towards some form of agreement or at the very least delay or freeze escalating tensions. 8 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail
Mehr News Agency @mehrnews_en The Threat of Technological Targeting: Israel’s Actions Against Intellectuals Hamid Khosravani an expert in technology and artificial intelligence addressed the alarming actions of the Israeli regime which with the support of the United States aims to undermine intellectualism. Today we participated in the second session of the conference titled 'Artificial Intelligence for Intellectual Suppression.' This gathering was heralded as a significant movement against intellectual oppression featuring contributions from over ten to twelve countries around the globe. Nations such as the United Arab Emirates Russia the United Kingdom Malaysia and Egypt were represented with distinguished scholars engaging in meaningful dialogue. The core of our discussion revolved around the criminal operation carried out by the Israeli regime in June of this year utilizing advanced technological tools including artificial intelligence to assassinate Iranian scientists and thinkers. This incident underscores the fact that the Israeli regime backed by the United States not only targets intellectuals and scholars but also seeks to obliterate the very essence of wisdom. 6 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail
Isna News @isnanews_en Concerns in Tel Aviv Over Rapid U.S.-Iran Deal According to the newspaper 'Ma'ariv' security circles within the Israeli regime are expressing apprehension regarding a potential swift agreement between the United States and Iran. They fear that the U.S. might conclude its involvement in the conflict with Iran through a superficial and hasty deal reminiscent of the arrangement made with the Houthis in Yemen. The most alarming scenario involves a partial agreement that could release funds for the Iranian regime thereby granting it a degree of immunity. An even worse outcome could be a limited American strike followed by a poorly negotiated deal that would leave Israel vulnerable to retaliatory missile strikes from Iran. 5 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail
IRNA News Agency @irnanews_en Escalating Crisis in the Israeli Army: A Surge in Officer Resignations The Israeli military is currently facing a significant crisis as an increasing number of officers are resigning from active duty. Hundreds of senior officers have been injured during the ongoing conflict and subsequently sidelined leading to a notable wave of resignations among captains and lieutenant colonels. This alarming trend has resulted in a dramatic decline in the number of volunteers willing to take on senior command positions raising serious concerns about the professional human resources within the Israeli army. Such a situation poses a direct threat to the security of the regime highlighting the urgent need for strategic solutions. As a direct consequence of this crisis the Israeli Defense Forces are often compelled to compromise on the quality and experience of personnel being promoted. This decision could have far-reaching implications for the military's operational effectiveness and long-term stability. 7 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail

The Palestinian Information Center @palinfo_en Hamas Commemorates the 32nd Anniversary of the Ibrahimi Mosque Massacre: Occupiers’ Crimes Are Timeless In a statement marking the 32nd anniversary of the Ibrahimi Mosque massacre, the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas declared that the crimes of the occupiers will never be subject to the passage of time. These actions, they assert, cannot alter historical truths or the will of the people. Hamas has called for the activation of legal proceedings against the leaders of the occupying regime for their crimes against the nation, its land, and its sanctities. Hamas highlighted the ongoing assaults and actions of the occupying government in Gaza, the West Bank, and Jerusalem. The anniversary of the tragic events of February 25, 1994, coincides with continued repressive policies. On that fateful day, coinciding with the fifteenth of Ramadan, an individual named Baruch Goldstein opened fire on worshippers at the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron, resulting in the deaths of 29 individuals and injuring many others. The statement emphasized that this incident illustrates the violent nature of occupation and is part of a series of similar events targeting civilians in the years before and after. Hamas also referenced the current developments in Gaza, viewing them as a continuation of the same oppressive trend.Furthermore Hamas criticized the actions of the Israeli regime in Islamic and Christian holy sites in the West Bank particularly at Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron. They asserted that these actions are blatant violations of international laws and norms executed within the framework of annexation and settlement policies. The movement stressed that the crimes of the Israeli regime including genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza since the onset of occupation will never be forgotten nor will the determination of the people to resist and endure be weakened. Hamas also held the occupying regime accountable for the consequences of actions related to the Ibrahimi Mosque and the old city of Hebron urging international organizations especially UNESCO to fulfill their legal and ethical responsibilities to halt these actions and address violations. In conclusion the movement paid tribute to the martyrs and called upon the people to continue their solidarity and resilience in striving for freedom and independence. 9 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail

The Palestinian Information Center @palinfo_en The Divine Right to the Middle East: A Debate on Israel’s Legitimacy From the Nile to the Euphrates: Does Israel possess a divine right to claim the entire Middle East? This provocative question emerged during a challenging dialogue between Tucker Carlson and Mike Huckabee, the U.S. ambassador to Israel. The discussion shifted the focus of Israel's legitimacy from the political arena to the realms of theology and international law. Huckabee simultaneously references international law and the promises found in biblical texts. However, when Carlson demands a universal principle, the responses take on an exceptionalist tone: Is the right to a homeland and existence reserved for all nations, or is it exclusive to Israel? Carlson directly cites verses from the Book of Genesis, raising inquiries about the implications of the phrase 'from the Nile to the Euphrates.' He lays bare the political consequences of a theological justification: if the Bible serves as the deed of ownership, what becomes of modern borders? Conversely, if international law is the standard, why are the same rights and global institutions—from The Hague to various courts—simultaneously discredited?This discourse invites a deeper examination of the intersection between faith and geopolitical claims. The implications of such discussions resonate beyond mere rhetoric challenging the very foundation of national identity and territorial rights in a complex and often contentious region. 8 0 1 0 February 25, 2026 Show detail
