US prosecutors say Iraqi national Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi helped plan approximately 18 attacks in Europe in recent months.

Two explosions struck a cargo vessel near Iraq’s Umm Qasr, with officials saying one was caused by a drone attack.

For Israel to properly understand its security needs and future risks, it is also important to come to a dispassionate and apolitical evaluation of the major issues involved in the US-Iran deal.

After the call, Netanyahu said that he had told Trump that "if Hezbollah doesn't stop attacking our towns and citizens - Israel will attack terror targets in Beirut."

"Talks are continuing, at a rapid pace, with the Islamic Republic of Iran," Trump said in a Truth Social post.

Iran is seeking a limited interim deal with the US to ease economic pressure while avoiding major nuclear concessions.

Iran also threatened to completely block the Strait of Hormuz, claiming that there would be no talks until its demands on the cessation of Israel's operations in both Lebanon and Gaza were met.

Mehrdad Mohammadinia and Ashkan Maleki had allegedly been part of a group of demonstrators who targeted the Jafari Mosque in Tehran's Gisha neighborhood.

Although Hamas only controls half of Gaza, it still runs the lives of 2 million civilians and seeks out new leadership amid targeted eliminations by the IDF.

The attacks illustrate how Iran is seeking to keep up the pressure on Kurdish opposition groups. Many of these groups have forces and bases in the Kurdistan Region of northern Iraq.
