Iranian President Pezeshkian attacks the IAEA in a phone call with Macron: “The IAEA’s double standards have created many problems for regional and global security. Macron urged Iran to return to cooperation with the agency but Pezeshkian insisted: “Why should Israel, which is not a member of the NPT, be the reference and basis of the IAEA’s reports?”
Grand Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi, a religious authority and professor of jurisprudence and principles in Qom, issued a fatwa against Trump and Netanyahu; it refers to Tel Aviv’s desire to eliminate Ayatollah Khamenei: “In the name of Allah, the Compassionate and the Merciful
Any individual or regime that threatens the Guide (Imam Khamenei) or the religious authority (Marja’iyyah) with the intent of harming the Islamic Ummah and the their system of government – or, God forbid, inflict any harm on them – must be treated as those who have declared war on Muslims. Supporting or cooperating with such individuals in any way is forbidden (haram) for Muslims and Islamic countries. All Muslims in the world must respond to these enemies in a way that makes them regret their words and actions. If they endure hardship or harm on this path, they will receive – God willing – the reward of those who fight in the way of Allah”.
At the same time, the Israeli Foreign Minister said that the Golan “will remain part” of Israel in any peace agreement with Syria. He was echoed by Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich:
“Syria, which once dreamed of wiping Israel off the map, today sends us envoys to talk about normalization and peace”.
The Israeli minister says that no concessions, not even symbolic ones, will be made to the Arab states and that Israel will only accept unilateral submission to its regional hegemony.
In this regard, the US ambassador to Turkey, Thomas Barrack, said: “Peace agreements with Israel are essential for Syria and Lebanon, and the Israeli-Iranian war opens a new path for the Middle East”.
The speech of Egyptian leader Al Sisi tends towards a diplomatic solution: “We draw inspiration from the experience of peace between Egypt and Israel of the 1970s, mediated by the United States”,
Donald Trump enters the legal affairs of Benjamin Netanyahu who thanked him for the message on Truth Social, in which he criticized his trial, and declared that he and Trump “will make the Middle East great again!”. On June 30, it is learned that “Netanyahu’s hearings this week have been canceled for classified diplomatic and security reasons”.
The Israeli media then reports the alarm launched by the IDF according to which “the danger will move from the north to the eastern border with Jordan. The military believes that Iran seeks to destabilize Jordan’s security and turn it into a base to launch its operations against Israel.”

The Israeli military issued warnings in several areas of Gaza City and Jabaliya on Monday, saying that the IDF is “conducting intensive combat operations” and that it will “extend the operation westward, up to city center,” Haaretz reported.
Now a look at the military scenarios.

The operation targeted a Zionist military position at the Salem checkpoint, causing significant damage. It was named “Operation Martyr Commander Nour al-Din al-Baytawi,” in honor of one of the most prominent military leaders of Saraya al-Quds in the occupied West Bank.

According to an IDF statement: “On Sunday night, several Israeli civilians set fire to and vandalized a security site containing systems that help counter terrorist attacks and maintain security in the Binyamin Regional Brigade area. The damage to the site poses a danger to the safety of civilians. The IDF condemns any act of violence against security forces and expects them to bring to justice Israeli civilians who harm security personnel engaged in the performance of their duty to protect Israeli citizens.
The IDF and all security forces will continue to focus on protecting civilians, while enforcing the law and preventing any illegal activity, wherever it occurs.”
