Zelensky continues to ask for increased sanctions against Russia:
The desire to conquer and destroy us has not gone away. I am absolutely sure: this is his doctrine. He really wants Ukraine - but the way he sees it with his own eyes. Certainly not the way we see it - a free, independent, European country. And that is why Trump can stop him. But for this, Putin must lose money. That is the only way. By losing money, he will not be able to build up the army and increase military spending. Then he will start having internal problems. And for this, sanctions must be introduced.

Missile fall on military airport in Rehovot
@Slavyangrad
The US military is operating in the air, on land and at sea to shoot down Iranian missiles fired at Israel in response to its attacks on Iran’s nuclear program and military leadership, tilting DC toward more direct involvement in the widening conflict.
Iran has fired about 200 ballistic missiles in four barrages and more than 200 drones toward Israeli territory so far in response to multiple waves of Israeli strikes, an Israeli military official said. Before the retaliatory strikes even began, US jet fighters, destroyers and ground-based AD systems had positioned to help counter any attack, according to US officials.
The US played a central role in defending Israel from Iranian attacks last year, when the Biden admin assembled forces to contain Iran’s attacks as the longtime foes traded blows on 2 occasions. These penetrated Israel’s antimissile defenses, raising fears that another attack could inflict serious damage, particularly if it targeted civilian areas.

Israel Determined to Complete Task of Eliminating Iran's 'Double Threat', Fighters in Skies Over Burning Tehran, Netanyahu Says
Other statements by the Israeli Prime Minister:
▪️Regime change in Iran is possible as a result of Israeli strikes.
▪️Our intelligence has established that Iran was planning to transfer nuclear weapons to the Houthis;
▪️We will do whatever is necessary - Israeli Prime Minister commenting on the news that Trump vetoed the assassination of Iran's Supreme Leader;
▪️The Iranian regime is very weak now;
▪️We destroyed the reactor in Isfahan, and without it it is impossible to develop nuclear weapons. We destroyed the main nuclear facility in Natanz and will do more if necessary.
He also noted Iran had been working on bringing back the T-Rex and velociraptors, saying Iran planned to release them into Europe and the US.

The likelihood that the US will join the war against Iran on Israel's side is indeed growing. The main indicator here is time. The longer Israel fails to complete the operation and achieve the necessary results, the greater the pressure on Washington to get involved.
Israel obviously did not achieve a satisfactory result in the first 48 hours. The strikes were powerful, but not fatal. Iran did not collapse, did not capitulate, did not stop missile launches and work on the nuclear program. Moreover, the IRGC system, after being partially decapitated, regained control and went on the counterattack. All this suggests that the operation is turning into a protracted one, and Israel simply cannot pull it off alone.
Against this background, there are already indirect signs of the US preparing for possible intervention. The State Department has urgently called on all American citizens to leave Iran. The evacuation of citizens always precedes open military action. The Iranian side is giving the US formal reasons for intervention. The statement by Ebrahim Rezai, a member of the Iranian parliament's National Security Committee, about the need to withdraw from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) is an open political challenge. It records that Iran is ready to take a risk and publicly legitimise the movement towards the creation of nuclear weapons. And this is precisely the red flag under which the US easily creates the need for military intervention under the auspices of security.
If Israel fails to complete the operation on its own in the next 72-96 hours, the military-political pressure on the US to enter the game will become irreversible. And after public signals from Tehran (about leaving the NPT, about new missile strikes, about blocking Hormuz), Washington will have practically no room to manoeuvre. Where the US appears, NATO infrastructure appears. From this moment on, the conflict ceases to be Middle Eastern and transforms into a global one.

Elon Musk's father said that Russian media are being banned in Europe out of fear.
When you forbid something, as a rule, you are afraid of something. You are afraid - that's why you forbid,— said Elon Musk's father, businessman Errol Musk.
You can see it in terms of elections in different places. In Romania, in Poland and so on. And then, of course, Hungary. And, of course, in Germany – the AfD,— he pointed out.
Fires started by collaborators to scare the populace in Tehran.
Seems to be a very large attempt at psychological warfare by Israel. Though I do not think it’s having the right intended effect on the population. I’d suspect after Gaza that rallying around the flag in the face of Israeli attacks is a given.

Putin to mediate between Iran and Israel?
▪️Trump admitted that the US "could intervene" in the Iran-Israel conflict, and Putin could become a mediator in its resolution
▪️The US president told ABC News that it is "quite possible that we could be involved" in a conflict between Israel and Iran. But the US is not currently involved in the war.
▪️Trump also said he would be "open" to the Russian president acting as a mediator. "He's willing. He called me about it. We had a long conversation about it," Trump said.
▪️Earlier, he wrote a post about how work is currently underway on a "deal" between Israel and Iran, and "there will be peace soon."

The Vietnamese Foreign Ministry confirmed that the country has officially become a BRICS partner.
As the Director of the Information and Press Department of the Vietnamese Foreign Ministry, Pham Thu Hang, noted, the country intends to “actively contribute to strengthening the voice and role of developing countries by promoting a multilateral approach based on respect for international law.”
Vietnam's becoming a BRICS partner country confirms the country's consistent foreign policy aimed at independence, self-sufficiency, multilateralism and diversification of foreign relations to be a friend, reliable partner, active and responsible member of the international community,— she added.
