Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei speaks in Tehran, 5 July 2025
Iran’s Khamenei claims ‘victory’ over Israel in first public appearance since ceasefire deal
TEHRAN — Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has said his country emerged victorious over Israel and “delivered a slap to America’s face” on Thursday.The speech in a video broadcast marked Khamenei's first public comments since a US-brokered ceasefire was declared between the two countries following 12 days of conflict.He told viewers that Washington had only intervened in the fighting because “it felt that if it did not intervene, the (Israeli) regime would be utterly destroyed.”Khamenei said that the US “achieved no gains from this war."“The Islamic Republic was victorious and, in retaliation, delivered a slap to America’s face,” he said, in apparent reference to an Iranian missile attack on a US base in Qatar on Monday, which resulted in all...

Tehran Symphony Orchestra holds free concert to honor Iranians killed in conflict with Israel
TEHRAN — The Tehran Symphony Orchestra held a free concert Wednesday at the city’s famed Azadi Square, dedicating it to Iranians killed in the 12-day conflict with Israel.As residents gathered for the performance, the orchestra played “Ey Iran,” the country’s unofficial national anthem that has long been considered a song of national pride and resistance and had once been banned by the Islamic Republic due to its association with anti-government sentiment.Established in 1933, the orchestra has survived multiple regimes, coups, revolution and wars, widely seen as a symbol of resilience.Its hardest days came during the term of hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when the orchestra was disbanded due to sanctions, financial difficulties and negligence.Three years later, reformist...

Gaza mediators intensifying ceasefire efforts, Hamas official says
CAIRO — A senior Hamas official has told the BBC that mediators have intensified their efforts to broker a new ceasefire and hostage release deal in Gaza, but that negotiations with Israel remain stalled.The comments came as US President Donald Trump said "great progress" was being made since Israel and Iran ended their 12-day war on Tuesday, and that his envoy Steve Witkoff thought an agreement between Israel and Hamas was "very close".Israeli attacks across Gaza on Wednesday killed at least 45 Palestinians, including some who were seeking aid, the Hamas-run health ministry said.Meanwhile, the Israeli military announced that seven soldiers were killed in a bomb attack on Tuesday claimed by Hamas."I think great progress is being made on Gaza, I think because of...

US strikes did not destroy Iran nuclear program, says intelligence assessment
WASHINGTON — A new US intelligence report found that Iran’s nuclear program has only been set back a few months after US strikes targeted three of the country’s nuclear sites last week.The report released by the US Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) – intelligence arm of the Pentagon – contradicts statements made by US President Donald Trump on Saturday night immediately following the conclusion of what he called a “targeted and precise” operation.Trump said in a televised press conference along with his Vice President JD Vance, State Secretary Marco Rubio and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth that Washington’s strikes had “completely and fully obliterated” Iran’s nuclear sites.Trump stated that Iran’s Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear facilities were dealt damage that...

UN condemns Gaza aid 'death trap' as dozens reported killed by Israeli fire
GAZA — At least 46 people waiting for aid have been killed by Israeli fire in two incidents in central and southern Gaza, according to rescuers and hospitals.UN agencies have condemned the US and Israel-backed food distribution system, with one official calling it "an abomination" and "a death trap".Such deadly incidents have recently become a near daily occurrence but have attracted relatively little attention outside Gaza since Israel attacked Iran more than a week ago.Without including the latest deaths, the UN has said that more than 410 Palestinians are reported to have been killed by Israeli gunfire or shelling since the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began work in late May."Why are our children's lives seen as so cheap?" demanded Umm Raed...
