X Suspends Palestinian American Campaign Account After Senate Bid X suspended the campaign account of Palestinian American writer Ahmed Moor days after he announced a Democratic primary challenge against Senator John Fetterman for 2028. The @moorforpa account had gained over 33,000 followers within three days. Moor shared the notice, writing: "FRIENDS! It's official! We're a threat." X cited rule violations without specifying which. His campaign said on Bluesky: "Elon Musk is not a fan of the campaign!" Moor, born in Gaza and living in Philadelphia, is running to "end the war in Iran" and for accountability for genocide. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/532095/X-suspends-Palestinian-Americ...

Araghchi: Iran may exercise its right to self-defense 🔹 In an op-ed for Japan's Kyodo News, Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi says Iran enjoys the right to legitimate self-defense and may exercise it. 🔹 He argues US and Israeli attacks on Iran clearly violate the prohibition on the use of force and assault Iran's sovereignty, and must be judged under the UN Charter, not post-facto political justifications. 🔹 Citing Articles 2(4) and 51, the ICJ's Nicaragua ruling, and Resolution 3314, he warns that preemptive war based on unilateral threat assessments would hollow out the ban on force — a view echoed by the head of the International Law Association's American branch, who called th...

Massive explosion, fire aboard violating LPG tanker in eastern Strait of Hormuz 🔹 An LPG carrier attempting to cross the Strait of Hormuz via an unauthorized southern route exploded after striking a naval mine, the IRGC Navy says, in a blast described as very powerful. 🔹 The vessel had ignored repeated warnings, failed to learn from the fate of previously destroyed tankers, and opted for US fighter jet protection to make the crossing — unaware that sea mines never coordinate with the "American smuggling and aggressor army" when hunting their prey. 🔹 The IRGC Navy said the Strait of Hormuz is managed with full determination, and any vessel that violates Iranian regulations and enters un...

Baghaei: Responsibility for coop. with US actions lies with participating countries 🔹 Foreign Ministry spokesman says any country that helps with America's illegal and aggressive actions will bear the consequences, warning against participation in the US campaign against Iran. 🔹 Reacting to reports that some countries may yield to US pressure to intervene in regional developments and the Strait of Hormuz, Baghaei wrote on social media, quoting a Korean proverb: "A sparrow that tries to fly with a stork will break its legs." 🔹 He said any direct or indirect participation in aggression or economic terrorism against Iran — including deploying naval units, equipment, or support forces — is...

IRGC deputy chief: Enemy forced to retreat before Iran's steadfastness 🔹 IRGC Deputy Commander Gen. Izadi says the enemy today fears the movements of Islam's fighters on both sea and land, and has been forced to retreat before the Iranian nation's steadfastness. 🔹 Speaking at a funeral procession for 110 unidentified martyrs, Izadi said in the 12-day war and the Ramadan war it was the enemy itself that entered the scene directly, because its proxies could no longer manage the confrontation with the Islamic Revolution. 🔹 He said US aircraft carriers now keep hundreds of kilometers from Iran's waters and lack the courage to approach, while enemy bases in the region have come under attack...

Military and Settlers Work Hand in Hand in West Bank Israeli soldiers shot dead 14-year-old Moataz Iyad Daghlas in Burqa on November 9, blocked ambulances, and are still holding his body. The UN logged 457 settler attacks in October—the most since counting began in 2006. Since October 2023, at least 1,143 Palestinians have been killed, including 250 children. Al Jazeera found 14 of 63 Palestinians killed by settlers were shot by people in army uniform. Settlers control about a fifth of the West Bank; 93.6% of settler criminal cases close without indictment. Meanwhile, 823 more settlement homes went out to tender. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/532064/Military-and-settlers-work-hand-in-ha...

Ghalibaf: Iran won't continue the "neither war, nor peace" situation; we are all ready for war 🔹 Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says the ball is in America's court after Iran sent its final response, and that Tehran will not remain in a "neither war, nor peace" limbo. 🔹 Speaking to Al Jazeera, Ghalibaf said Washington must first implement Iran's seven conditions — lifting the naval blockade, ending sanctions, withdrawing added forces, halting Hormuz interference, and ending the war on all fronts — after which talks can continue and the Strait of Hormuz reopened. 🔹 He said no change has been made to Iran's six-member negotiating team, which he still heads, dismissing report...

After the Strikes, Iran Rethinks the Nuclear Threshold More than eight months after Trump and Netanyahu's war, the US has failed to achieve its objectives: Gulf bases are destroyed, Hormuz remains Iranian-controlled, and the state survived. The assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who long opposed nuclear weapons via a 2003 fatwa, has shifted the calculus. With the attack having occurred despite Iran having no bomb, restraint's deterrent logic is harder to sustain. Officials including Mohsen Rezaei now openly discuss revising doctrine. The irony: a war pretexted on Iran's nuclear program may end up changing it. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/532071/After-the-strikes-Iran-rethinks-the...

Iran's deputy military chief: Response to any future war will be crushing 🔹 Major General Kioumars Heydari, deputy chief of the Armed Forces General Staff, says Iran's target bank for a possible future war is ready and awaiting the Commander-in-Chief's signature, drawn up without geographic limits. 🔹 Defining a "legitimate target," he said that if an aircraft from any country bombs Iranian soil, Iran may strike a similar target inside that country, including locations the US or Israel might use. 🔹 He said no American vessels remain in the Persian Gulf, claiming the US lost its most valuable air and naval assets and its nearest warship is now nearly 500 km from Iran's Chabahar border....

Flooded Tents Deepen the Misery of Displaced Gazans When a sand dune collapsed onto a tent, killing four children and a woman, it was no natural disaster. Gaza's first winter storm flooded around 70,000 tents within twelve hours; humanitarian groups estimate 200,000–300,000 new tents or caravans are needed. One million women and girls face hunger in flooded shelters without sanitation. Israel restricts cement, fuel, and machinery needed for rebuilding and rescue. The author argues a siege does not become less destructive when victims die from exposure rather than bombs, and a "peace board" that cannot protect a child from freezing has failed its most basic test. https://www.tehrantimes.com...

Has the West Launched a New Smear Campaign Against Iran? Reports claim Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was relocated to a military base over alleged Iranian assassination threats, with Stephen Miller and Marco Rubio also moved. Analysts say the accusations aim to demonize Iran and justify the illegal war, especially after Republicans' midterm defeat tied to the Iran war and high energy prices. An Iranian official told the Tehran Times that Washington has "lost face" and failed to dislodge the Islamic Republic. Unsubstantiated charges from France and Germany add to what analysts call a coordinated smear campaign. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/532070/Has-the-West-launched-a-new-smear-cam...

German Student Replaces Flag Outside Bundestag with Palestinian Flag in Protest to Berlin's Policies A 22-year-old German student, identified as Aaron, climbed a flagpole outside the Bundestag, removed the German flag, and raised a Palestinian flag to protest Berlin's stance on Israel's war in Gaza. He acted with activists from "Peacefully Against Genocide," livestreaming on TikTok before police detained him and two others. Aaron told Al Jazeera he wanted to send a direct message to lawmakers. The incident prompted investigations and a security review. On Saturday, hundreds marched in Berlin against German arms supplies to Israel. https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/532072/German-student-repl...

Pezeshkian: The environment is a silent victim of wars 🔹 Addressing the COP31 climate summit in Turkey, President Masoud Pezeshkian described the environment as "a silent victim of wars" whose destruction outlasts conflicts by generations. 🔹 He said recent US and Israeli strikes on Iran caused major environmental damage — attacks on Assaluyeh fuel facilities released about 500,000 tons of emissions, and strikes on depots near Tehran released one million tons of CO2, contradicting global climate efforts. 🔹 Calling Gaza a humanitarian and environmental catastrophe, he urged stronger mechanisms to document damage and hold perpetrators accountable. 🔹 He said Iran raised renewable capacit...
