Kremlin:

The date of the third round of negotiations with Ukraine will be agreed upon next week.

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee:

We are on the seventh day of the war. We have fired more than 400 missiles, dozens of which have passed through their so-called dome.

White House:

Trump will receive intelligence briefings from the National Security Council on the situation with Iran on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee:

We took all the materials before they hit the nuclear centers.

We still have scientists and factories.

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee:

The leader of the revolution himself is a military man, he understands and is wise, and he says we shouldn't have a ceasefire now.

NEW: An explosion occurred in the Lavizan area of Tehran.

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee:

The US entry may be able to defeat Fordow, but it cannot strengthen Israel in terms of defense any more than this.

Russia's Medvedev:

Everyone, even the Israeli defense minister, with his loud declaration about Khamenei's fate, must understand that attacks on nuclear facilities are extremely dangerous and can lead to a repeat of the Chernobyl tragedy.

Spokesman for Iran's Operation True Promise:

The airspace of the occupied territories has become defenseless and there will be no safe place.

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee:

In just the past 48 hours, you saw that we employed a new tactic—a combination of Fattah and Sejjil missiles— and when these are used together, they truly create serious disruption in the enemy’s defense systems.

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee:

To date, we have not used our land, sea, oil, and Strait of Hormuz capabilities, or our allies in other countries.

Our allies have sent requests to join the war, but we told them there’s no need yet.

Norwegian Foreign Ministry:

An explosion occurred at the Norwegian ambassador's residence in Tel Aviv, but no embassy staff were injured.

Interesting: Multiple Boeing 747s were tracked flying from China to Iran over the past week, raising concerns that China may be helping Iran move cargo or personnel amid Israeli strikes on nuclear sites.

FlightRadar24 showed at least five such flights since June 14.

According to The Telegraph, the planes followed a route through Central Asia and vanished from radar near Iran.

Though listed as bound for Luxembourg, they never entered European airspace.

BIG: The U.S. hasn’t ruled out "using tactical nuclear weapons" to strike Iran’s Fordow nuclear site.

BREAKING: Iran claims Intelligence services recently foiled a major Israeli plot to assassinate FM Araghchi in Tehran.

Could the U.S. Use Tactical Nukes on Iran’s Fordow Site?

It’s possible — but nearly unthinkable.

Fordow, Iran’s underground nuclear facility buried under 80 meters of rock, is designed to withstand conventional strikes.

While the U.S. has powerful bunker-busters like the GBU-57 MOP, doubts remain about their ability to fully destroy Fordow.

That’s why some mention tactical nuclear weapons, such as the B61-12, as a last-resort option.

These bombs can be tuned to specific yields and potentially collapse deep underground bunkers.

But the consequences would be massive:
Global backlash and isolation for the U.S.
Humanitarian disaster from fallout.
A new nuclear arms race.

Technically, the U.S. could do it. Politically and morally, it’s almost impossible.

For now, the idea remains theoretical — a capability that’s highly unlikely to be used.

MORE: Military cargo from the U.S. arrives for Israeli Army.

Fox WH Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich:

The US military has no doubt about the efficacy of bunker busters in eliminating the site at Fordow, also denying that any options (including tactical nukes) have been taken off the table.

UPDATE: Claims that Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei was targeted in Tehran bunker appear false. The video footage shared along is also old. The original post was deleted.

Steve Bannon Warns Trump Against Iran War

At a D.C. breakfast event, Steve Bannon urged Trump to avoid deep U.S. military involvement in Iran, opposing strikes on sites like Fordow with large bombs.

He said Israel should finish what it started and warned against “another Iraq.”

Still, he noted Trump’s base would likely back him if he chose military action after explaining it.

Bannon also criticized Netanyahu’s expectations and Israeli intelligence.
