🇮🇷🇴🇲🇺🇸⚡️ — Iranian diplomats initially welcomed the Omani-brokered proposal on the Strait of Hormuz, but Tehran has since demanded the right to collect shipping fees, potentially shared with Oman, along with guarantees against renewed attacks, an end to the U.S. naval blockade, and relief from oil sanctions, according to WSJ.

Senior regional officials said the U.S. and regional governments have rejected Iran's demand for shipping fees and want guarantees that Iran and its allied groups will not threaten their territories.

🇺🇸🫏⚡️- Election results tonight further allude to the pattern of the DSA having the most success in declining parts of the country where the Democrat Party establishment is the weakest such as New York, the Rust Belt, and certain parts of the West Coast, while areas such as the Sunbelt with healthy successful economies are still able to deflect them with proper pushback from the party.

A pattern eerily similar to President Trump's 2016 campaign through the GOP primary.

Last night, Apple briefly removed Telegram from the App Store because a single user had planted illegal pornographic content in a public group chat.

⬅️ Telegram was restored within hours. But I want to explain what happened — to warn other app developers and help protect online communities from similar attacks.

🧹Because Telegram quickly removes illegal content from public groups using all kinds of moderation tools, the attacker had to resort to a technical trick. He inserted AI-modified illegal content by editing an old message in an active group chat. As a result, the content was effectively hidden from the group’s members, preventing them from seeing and promptly reporting it.

💰 The attacker was a takedown extortionist: someone who demands ransom from group owners in exchange for not targeting their communities. These extortionists use automated accounts to plant illegal content in public groups and then report it directly to Apple, attempting to trigger the removal of legitimate communities whose owners refused to pay them.

🤝 From a practical standpoint, illegal pornographic content in Telegram’s public groups is not a systemic problem. Our moderation is effective. The fact that attackers must resort to backdated, effectively invisible content and other technical tricks proves this.

⚠️ However, there are two important lessons here for app developers and online communities:

— Extortionists have found a way to manipulate Apple into overreacting. Apple removed Telegram from the App Store before contacting us. This creates a potential systemic risk for every mobile app that hosts user-generated content. If an app used by more than a billion people can be removed from the App Store without prior warning, any app can be.

— The tactics used by takedown extortionists are evolving, putting communities across social platforms at risk. Telegram has extensive experience identifying the tricks used by coordinated reporting gangs and protecting legitimate communities (even when doing so risks our own app being temporarily removed from the App Store). Other platforms may not be equally prepared.

Stay vigilant! ☝️

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️ — The U.S. military has depleted nearly 80% of its THAAD interceptors and about half of its Patriot missile interceptors compared with pre-war stockpiles, according to CNN.

The U.S. Army has used virtually all of its precision long-range surface-to-surface missiles during the conflict, prompting warnings from senior commanders that U.S. munitions stockpiles are becoming "dangerously low."

Concerns over dwindling interceptor inventories, combined with intelligence assessments and pressure from Gulf allies worried about their own air defenses, were among the factors that persuaded some of President Trump's senior advisers to support calling off planned large-scale military operations over the weekend.

Officials from Gulf states have also warned that shortages of U.S.-supplied air defense interceptors could leave them more vulnerable to potential Iranian missile and drone attacks if the war escalates further.
