    Yuri Ushakov, assistant to the Kremlin, announced on Wednesday, April 28, that there was a 1.5-hour phone conversation between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, describing the atmosphere of the call as "friendly and businesslike."
    In this discussion, Putin condemned the recent assassination attempt on Trump, expressed his support for Trump's decision to extend the ceasefire with the Islamic Republic, and presented ideas for resolving Tehran's nuclear program issue.

    In another part of the conversation, Trump expressed hope that an agreement to end the conflicts in Ukraine is close.
    Putin also proposed establishing a ceasefire in Ukraine coinciding with the "Victory Day" celebrations in May, which was met with a positive response from Trump.

    The Russian President described Ukraine's military actions as "terrorist methods."
    In addition to security issues, the leaders of the two major powers also exchanged views on potential economic projects and cooperation in the energy sector.

    U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announced that two months after the deadly attack on a primary school in Minab, which resulted in the deaths of over 165 people, the incident is still under investigation.

    These remarks were made in response to questions from Ro Khanna, a Democratic representative from California, who asked Austin about the human costs and repercussions of the attack. Austin described the event as a "tragic situation," emphasizing that no "cost or price" can be assigned to it.

    Last month, Austin told reporters that the military had assigned one of the generals outside of Central Command (CENTCOM) to investigate the incident; however, he refrained from answering questions about the cause of the attack and reiterated that the United States does not target civilians.

    Five former U.S. officials, including a senior military lawyer, have criticized the Pentagon for not acknowledging or denying the possibility of U.S. involvement in this deadly attack earlier this year. Some of these officials have stated that the failure to release even preliminary information after such a long time is unusual behavior. Over the past two months, the Pentagon has only stated that the incident is "under investigation."

    Donald Trump, on Wednesday, April 29, emphasized in an interview with Axios that the naval blockade of Iran will continue until an agreement is reached that addresses America's nuclear concerns. He rejected Tehran's recent proposal to conditionally reopen the Strait of Hormuz and postpone nuclear negotiations, noting that he considers the blockade "somewhat more effective than bombing."

    At the same time, three informed sources told Axios that U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has developed a plan for a wave of "short and powerful" attacks on Iran's infrastructure to break the negotiation deadlock.

    Although Trump had not issued a military action order by Tuesday night, he warned that he would consider military options if Iran does not comply. He also issued a warning to Tehran by sharing an AI-generated image of himself holding a weapon, with the slogan "No more Mr. Nice Guy."

    The audio file published by government sources with the following description:
    "Audio message from Qalibaf addressed to the people of Iran
    The Speaker of Parliament's account of 6 defeats of the enemy"

    And the sentences selected by government sources from this audio file:
    "
    🔹The Speaker of Parliament, in an audio file addressed to the people of Iran, spoke about the most important current issues in the country, particularly the enemy's new design to bring the people of Iran to submission.

    The main sections of this discussion are as follows:
    🔹From day one, the enemy sought to finish off the regime within 3 days by assassinating the leader of the revolution and military commanders, but they failed.

    🔹Then they aimed to destroy the country's offensive system, but as time passed, they saw that the launch of our missiles and drones continued.

    🔹Next, they attempted to turn Iran into a Venezuela-like state and again failed. They then tried to activate separatists from the west of the country, but thanks to God and the efforts of military and intelligence forces, they were defeated.

    🔹After months of planning and targeting the country's security bases during the war, they designed a coup for the eve of the Fire Festival, but the people of Iran delivered a significant blow to them in unison.

    🔹The enemy sought to bring forces into the country and tested this plan in Isfahan, but it turned into a second Tabas scandal.

    🔹Each of these designs could have brought a country to its knees, but the Iranian nation, backed by divine grace, has managed to thwart each of these enemy designs.

    🔹This defeat of the enemy had a socio-political infrastructure, and without it, no success would have been achieved, and that was the cohesive and active presence of the people. However, the enemy has entered a new phase and wants to activate maritime blockade, media propaganda, economic pressure, and internal discord to weaken or even collapse us from within.

    🔹Trump explicitly divides the country into two categories: hardliners and moderates, and then immediately speaks of a maritime blockade to force Iran into submission through economic pressure and internal discord.

    🔹The solution to counter the enemy's new conspiracy is only one thing: maintaining cohesion. From day one until today, maintaining cohesion has been the antidote to all enemy conspiracies, and today, given the enemy's new design, its importance is greater, and any divisive action is entirely part of the enemy's new plan.

    🔹As someone who is in the midst of the field, I want to tell the Iranian nation that we officials are all subject to the orders of the leader of the country, who is our guardian and the representative of the Imam of the Age (may God hasten his reappearance), and our worldly and otherworldly good lies in obeying his commands.

    🔹You can be assured that we are advancing our work with complete unity among military and political officials, and our axis of unity is the orders of the guardian of the Muslim community.

    🔹With the understanding I have of the Iranian people, I say that these people, by God's grace, will also defeat this deceptive design of the enemy, and we will achieve a glorious victory in this war and be included in this divine promise: "And another [victory] that you love, is near victory from Allah and conquest. And give good tidings to the believers."

    During a hearing in the House Armed Services Committee, Pete Hegseth, the U.S. Secretary of Defense, defended the Trump administration's military strategy against Iran in a confrontation with Adam Smith.

    Hegseth pointed to the success of Operation "Midnight Hammer," stating that Iran's nuclear facilities have been destroyed and buried underground, now under constant surveillance.

    In this controversial discussion, Hegseth likened Iran's approach to a "North Korean strategy," saying, "Tehran intended to use a conventional missile shield to prevent challenges to itself while quietly moving towards nuclear weapons; however, President Trump saw Iran at its weakest moment and, in collaboration with Israeli partners, took action that only the U.S. could undertake."

    In contrast, Adam Smith criticized the outcomes of this war, emphasizing that despite heavy military operations, Iran's nuclear situation has not improved, and Tehran has now taken a more aggressive stance in negotiations. Smith noted that before the war began, the Strait of Hormuz was open, but now Washington is negotiating merely to return to the pre-war status quo.

    Scott Basset, the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, wrote on the social media platform X that under the continuation of the President's "maximum pressure" policy, inflation in Iran has doubled and the value of the national currency has rapidly declined.

    Mr. Basset states that these actions, as part of the "severe economic pressure" program, have targeted and sanctioned Iran's "shadow banking" infrastructure internationally, the country's access to cryptocurrencies, its covert transportation fleet, arms supply networks, financial resources for proxy groups in the region, as well as independent Chinese refineries known as "teapots" that support Iran's oil trade.

    According to him, these U.S. actions have disrupted the flow of tens of billions of dollars in revenue that could have been used to finance "terrorist activities."

    Previously, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that it had sanctioned 35 entities and individuals linked to Iran that play a role in the "hidden banking structure of Iran."

    He added, "Kharg Island, Iran's most important oil export terminal, will soon reach its storage capacity threshold."

    A man in India exhumed his sister's skeleton and took it to the bank as proof of death

    According to the Times of India, a man in the state of Odisha in eastern India, after being unable to withdraw his deceased sister's bank deposit, exhumed her skeleton and protested in front of a rural bank in the village of Malipasi; an action that caused panic among bank staff and led to police presence at the scene.

    The report states that his sister passed away about two months ago and had nearly 19,300 rupees, equivalent to about 200 dollars, in her account. Bank officials had refused to release the funds due to the lack of legal documentation and had asked him to provide a death certificate.

    Police stated that the man, unfamiliar with the administrative process, brought the remains of the body to the bank as evidence instead of obtaining the necessary documents. Ultimately, with police intervention, he was persuaded to re-bury the skeleton and to provide the required documentation to receive the money.

    Trump wrote on the social media platform Truth Social: "Friedrich Merz, the Chancellor of Germany, thinks that having nuclear weapons for Iran is not a problem. He doesn't understand at all what he is talking about! If Iran has nuclear weapons, the whole world will be taken hostage. I am currently doing something with Iran that other countries or presidents should have done a long time ago. It’s no surprise that Germany is in such a weak position, both economically and otherwise!"

    The rift that had previously begun within the principlist movement turned into a media dispute with the re-publication of a note in the Tasnim news agency, which continues to this day.

    On May 5, 2026, Tasnim, affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, published an article titled "People's Power in the Streets / What Lies Behind Negotiations with America?" in the "News from Other Media" section; a note emphasizing that negotiations with America should not be seen as a final solution and that "the power of the people in the streets" could be Iran's main support in negotiations. Part of this note stated, "...some are making demands similar to magic beans, from the lifting of all sanctions to a general ceasefire across the entire resistance front..."

    These two conditions referred to as "magic beans" in the note re-published by Tasnim were among the demands of Mojtaba Khamenei, the third leader of the Islamic Republic, for ending the war.

    The note "People's Power in the Streets / What Lies Behind Negotiations with America?" was re-published a few hours later by the Mashregh website, which is close to the principlists. However, after the protests escalated, both media outlets deleted the note.

    Following this, Rajanews accused Tasnim of indirectly preparing the ground for a return to negotiations with America and accused the media outlet of distancing itself from the previous positions of the so-called "Resistance Front."

    In response, Tasnim published a note titled "Points About a Magical Lie Against Tasnim," stating that the discussed article was merely published in the media re-publication section, was not the official position of the news agency, and was deleted a few hours later due to misinterpretation. Tasnim also spoke of "a small group," without directly naming Rajanews, which, according to this media outlet, is trying to undermine Tasnim's positions and create a rift within the principlist movement through "psychological operations."

    In another note titled "The Rajai Way or the Kashmiri Method?" addressed to Rajanews, Tasnim wrote: "Hypocrisy, political maneuvering, and sowing discord, if not the Kashmiri method, is at least not the Rajai way! The name of martyr Rajai is intertwined with sincerity, piety, love for Islam, respect for the great authorities, and national unity."

    In another section of this note, it stated: "If the Kashmiri method, which is the assassination of individuals, is condemned; character assassination is no less than physical assassination; as God has said, the honor of a believer is higher than that of the Kaaba."

    Rajanews is a website close to the Stability Front, managed by Meysam Nili Ahmadabadi, a former member of the central council of the Stability Front.
    @VahidHeadline
    Tasnim news agency, affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, criticized the Rajanews site, which supports Saeed Jalili, reporting that in recent weeks "suspicious activities to undermine unity in Iran" have emerged, with serious traces of "infiltration and suspicious activities" being observed, and "even recently, some have been arrested in this regard."

    This IRGC-affiliated media described the "Rajanews" site, which supports Saeed Jalili, as an "organized and suspicious movement" that has resorted to "sowing discord" and is completing Trump's project. The Rajanews site, owned by Meysam Nili, the brother-in-law of Ebrahim Raisi, is currently very close to the Stability Front. Rajanews also stated in response to Tasnim's article that it will file a complaint against this IRGC-affiliated media.

    The Axios news website, citing five advisors to Donald Trump, reported that the U.S. President is wavering between two options: launching new military attacks against Iran or waiting to see the effects of the "maximum pressure" financial sanctions on the Islamic Republic's willingness to negotiate an end to its nuclear weapons program.

    According to one of Trump's advisors, he recently stated about the leaders of the Islamic Republic: "The only thing they understand is a bomb." This advisor described Trump's situation as "dissatisfied but realistic," noting that he does not want to use force but will not back down either.

    The report indicates that some of Trump's senior advisors want the U.S. to maintain the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz for now and to increase economic pressure and sanctions against the Islamic Republic before returning to military attacks.

    The head of the National Saffron Council, expressing frustration over the international internet outage, says: These restrictions have severely impacted exporters; the lack of internet has prevented many exporters from communicating with international customers or sending their goods on time.

    Mohsen Ehtesham emphasizes: This situation has created a new opportunity for foreign competitors like Afghanistan, allowing them to register and market Iranian saffron under their own name in the global market.

    Ehtesham states: Unfortunately, exporters have recently been unable to maintain direct contact with international customers due to the internet outage; they couldn't even communicate with them to ensure that the goods had reached them. This issue not only limited exports but also diminished the status of Iranian saffron in the global market.

    It has been exactly two months since the unprecedented internet outage in Iran, and depriving Iranians of this civic right has caused serious and, in some cases, irreparable damage to the livelihoods, economy, and mental well-being of the people.

    The United Arab Emirates announced on Tuesday, April 27, that it will withdraw from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and OPEC+.

    The UAE's exit will take effect on May 1 (May 11).

    According to Reuters, this move deals a heavy blow to these two oil-exporting organizations and their practical leader, Saudi Arabia, especially as the war in Iran has caused a historic shock in the energy market and instability in the global economy.

    The unexpected exit of the UAE, which has been a long-standing member of OPEC, could lead to turmoil and weaken the group, which has typically sought to present a united front despite internal disagreements over issues ranging from geopolitics to production quotas.

    The UAE's Minister of Energy told Reuters on Tuesday that leaving OPEC and OPEC+ gives the country flexibility, as it no longer has commitments to this group, adding that the UAE had not consulted directly with others, including Saudi Arabia, before making this decision.

    The UAE's exit from OPEC is seen as a significant victory for Donald Trump, the President of the United States, who has accused the organization of "exploiting the rest of the world" by keeping oil prices high. Trump has also linked U.S. military support for Gulf countries to oil prices, stating that while the U.S. defends OPEC members, they "exploit this situation by imposing high oil prices."

    This action came after the UAE, as a major trading hub in the region and one of Washington's closest allies, criticized Arab countries for their inadequate measures to protect the UAE from multiple Iranian attacks during the war.
    Anwar Gargash, the diplomatic advisor to the UAE President, criticized the response of Arab and Gulf Cooperation Council countries to Iranian attacks during a meeting at the "Gulf Influencers Forum" on April 26.
    He said, "The Gulf Cooperation Council member countries supported each other logistically, but politically and militarily, in my opinion, their position has historically been the weakest."
    He added, "I expect such a weak position from the Arab League, and it is not surprising, but I did not expect it from the Gulf Cooperation Council, and I am surprised by that."
