This is a notable turning point: Nabavian and Ebrahim Rezaei, two hardline MPs and vocal opponents of Iran-US negotiations, have been pushed out of parliament’s National Security Commission. The move may point to pressure from higher up in the regime.

In an audio post, Mahdi Mohammadi, Qalibaf’s adviser on strategic affairs, threatened that a Houthi ground attack on Saudi Arabia could take place: “A ground battle between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia and the UAE” is possible. www.mashreghnews.ir/news/1825615...

Most US attacks on Iran in recent days focused on the south. But one strike stands out: a railroad bridge linking Iran and Turkmenistan in Golestan province was hit. The railway is one of Iran’s main overland export-import routes.

The battle over narrative in Iran is getting sharper. Yesterday, state TV, controlled by ultra-hardliners close to Jalili, cut off a pre-recorded interview with Qalibaf, midway through its broadcast. Today, accounts close to the same ultra-hardline camp on EITAA, are being shut down.

Ultra-extremists in Tehran, close to Saeed Jalili, are now openly framing the current power struggle as an ongoing “coup” against the Supreme Leader position-Mojtaba-indirectly suggesting that it is already underway, driven by the IRGC/Qalibaf camp and Pezeshkian’s government.

Iran’s military forces are preparing for a potential new round of US-Israeli attacks by deploying more man-portable air defence systems, or MANPADS, drawing on lessons from the recent war and the downing of multiple US and Israeli aircraft. @france24.com www.france24.com/en/middle-ea...

As far as I can see, the reaction of most Iranians to Trump's comparison between Iran and its Persian Gulf neighbours is "pain" It was once the most advanced country in the region, but now it can no longer provide its population with water and electricity; people see the one responsible: the regime.
