As with the Constitutional Committee, #Assad did not engage and #Pedersen again turned to #Moscow for help while simultaneously chasing Western donors for ever more concessions to be presented to #Damascus. This too did not work.
The vessel has been redirected into Iranian port of Bandar Abbas.
this is not the retaliation against Israel, but a signal that Israel declaration of war against Iran by destroying it's consulate in Damascus will mean no Israeli ship or israeli-linked ship will be allowed to pass the Strait of Hormoz,
Hebrew Media trying to get the Americans involved by saying: 'The Iranians with this action have sent a clear message to the US; if you intervene on behalf of Israel, we will close the Persian Gulf just like the Red Sea'

This shows once again that Palestinian lives have little to no value for the majority of "world leaders x and protection of Israeli criminal regime is far more important than anything else.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has asked China's foreign minister and other counterparts to use their influence to dissuade Iran from striking Israel, the State Department said Thursday.
Iran Foreign Minister rejects any attempts at mediation, says that countries 'should have condemned the Israeli aggression when they had the chance', and that a punishment is definitely necessary
The United States said on Thursday it had restricted its employees in Israel and their family members from personal travel outside the greater Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Be'er Sheva areas amid Iran's threats to retaliate against its regional adversary"
➡️ The Iranian state news agency IRNA wrote on Wednesday that “the time is ripe to punish Israel”. It claimed a final decision on how to respond to Israel had been made, adding a failure to respond would undermine Iran’s “deterrence.”
➡️ The Tasnim news agency, which is close to the Revolutionary Guards, also wrote that Iran’s “punishment” for Israel was inevitable and would be “heavy”.
➡️ But it said how and when Iran would act was confidential and that reports suggesting that Tehran would respond over the next few days or was planning a missile and drone strike were only speculation.
➡️ Iran’s foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian held phone conversations with foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Iraq, United Arab Emirates and Qatar on Wednesday night, with the ministry saying the consequences of Israel’s attack on the Iranian consulate were among the topics discussed. He also spoke to his Turkish counterpart on Thursday.
➡️ Israeli security analysts have said an Iranian attack could range from a strike via one of Iran’s proxies, such as Hizbollah, to a direct attack on Israel from Iran itself, which could risk an escalation of the regional conflict.

CBS News: "The U.S. has picked up intelligence that Iran is planning a retaliatory attack that would include a swarm of Shahed-136 loitering drones and cruise missiles. Officials say the timing and target are unknown, but a proportional response to the #Damascus attack would be to hit an Israeli diplomatic facility. The attack is likely to come between now and the end of #Ramadan next week.
Another important unknown is where the drones and missiles would be launched — from Iraq or Syria, which could prompt a thin claim of deniability by #Tehran — or from Iranian territory."
It's sickening to read all the garbage posts about Iranian attack against Israel which has absolute 0 intelligence value, but perfect propaganda tool, draw attention away from horrendous war crimes of Israel in and around Al Shifa hospital and the murder of #WCK volunteers.
And forgot about the fact that Israel literally declared war on Iran and there are no "proportional" response to such declaration than an all out war.
That is exactly what Netanyahu has been dreaming about so #GenocideJoe and "defensive" NATO comes to his rescue.

Iranian sources saying that Iran has informed united nations that they have the legal rights to retaliate against any legitimate Israeli targets without mentioning any geographic location.

Attacking the consulate of a foreign nation is clear declaration of war.
#Netanyahu is now openly inviting Iran into an open all out war and giving IRI the right to retaliate and attack any Israeli consulate or embassy anywhere in the world.
This is a dangerous escalation by Bibi who have already lost the war at home and in Gaza after 5 months of mass murder and destruction of 70% of all building in #Gaza, it have not been able to achieve a single military or political goal he set up at the start of the assault against Gaza.
