    The judiciary of the Islamic Republic has announced that Amir Ali Mirjafari, one of the protesters arrested during the protests in December 2024, was executed on Tuesday, April 20, 2025.

    The Mizan news agency, the official organ of the judiciary, has accused Mirjafari of "setting fire to the Jameh Mosque of Qalehak" and stated that he "led the anti-security actions of the Mossad network in that area."

    No information has been released regarding the timing and conditions of the trial for this young man, how he accessed a lawyer, or his exact age.

    Mizan has claimed that Amir Ali Mirjafari confessed to "setting fire to a trash can and a motorcycle" and "attacking officers." However, the report from this news agency does not mention any confession regarding the arson of the mosque.

    In recent days, the judiciary of the Islamic Republic has intensified the execution process for those accused in the December protests, executing more than 10 individuals in recent weeks.

    UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights, May Sato, had previously stated that the recent executions in Iran "continue a long-standing pattern of using the death penalty to suppress dissenting views."

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, spoke on Monday evening Washington time, shortly before the end of the ceasefire with the Islamic Republic of Iran, in an interview with "John Fredericks' Radio Show" following Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf's statements.

    The host of the program asked the President, "What is your final message to Iran today? They say they might not negotiate, they might not go to Pakistan, they have also fired at a ship. What is your message to the Iranian regime?"

    Mr. Trump responded, "Well, they will negotiate."
    Donald Trump stated that if the officials of the Islamic Republic do not negotiate, "they will face problems they have never seen before. They will negotiate, and I hope they reach a fair agreement and rebuild their country... but during that process, they will not have nuclear weapons."

    He emphasized that "they will have no access and no possibility of obtaining nuclear weapons."

    The Washington Post reported, citing an Iranian official, that the tone of Donald Trump's public statements and the ongoing U.S. blockade are two main obstacles to progress in negotiations between Tehran and Washington.

    According to the newspaper, a Pakistani official also stated that mediators have warned Trump about the consequences of this tone and have urged him to allow the negotiations in Islamabad to appear as a "win-win" outcome for both sides.

    The Washington Post also quoted an Iranian official as saying that the two sides have largely reached an understanding on the overall framework of the agreement, but Trump's public "maximalism" could undermine the diplomatic process.

    Tim Cook announced that he will step down as CEO of Apple at the beginning of September and will serve as the chairman of the board of the company. Cook, who has led Apple since 2011, will be succeeded by John Ternus, the head of hardware.

    During Cook's management, Apple's annual profit quadrupled to over $110 billion, and the company's value increased more than tenfold to around $4 trillion.

    John Ternus, who joined Apple in 2001, has been promoted within the company's management structure while overseeing the development of the Mac and iPad. He will be the eighth CEO of Apple in the past 50 years and the third CEO since Steve Jobs' return in 1997.

    The informed source, who wished to remain anonymous, stated in an interview with Reuters that positive signals have been received from Tehran, and Pakistan is making every effort to ensure that representatives of the Islamic Republic attend the meeting before negotiations begin in the coming days.

    These diplomatic moves come as the end of the 14-day ceasefire set by U.S. President Donald Trump approaches.

    ChatGPT interpretation:
    What he means is that, according to him, Iran's actions and disruptions in energy transit in the region have led buyers and tankers to rely more on American oil and gas instead of depending on routes and supplies related to the Persian Gulf; in other words, this situation effectively benefits U.S. energy exports. His mention of Texas and Louisiana is because these two states are among the most important energy hubs and oil and gas exporters in the U.S., and Alaska is also one of the key oil-producing states. In fact, the tone of the post suggests that Iran is inadvertently creating customers for the U.S. energy industry.

    Trump's next post machine translation:
    I am winning a war by a large margin, things are going very well, and our military has performed extraordinarily. But if you read the fake media, like the declining New York Times, the truly horrendous and disgusting Wall Street Journal, or the Washington Post, which fortunately is now almost out of breath, you might actually think we are losing the war.

    The enemy is confused because they see these "reports" from the media, but at the same time, they know their navy has been completely destroyed, their air force has gone dark, they have no missile or air defense systems, their former leaders have mostly vanished — which, along with everything else, has meant regime change — and perhaps most importantly, the blockade will not be lifted until we reach a "deal," and it is delivering a devastating blow to Iran.

    They are losing $500 million a day; a figure that is not sustainable even in the short term. The fake and anti-American media wish for Iran to win, but that will not happen because I am in control. Just as these unpatriotic individuals tried with all their limited power to oppose me in the elections, they are now doing the same regarding Iran. The outcome will be the same — and in fact, it already is.

    Next post from Trump machine translation:
    The Democrats are doing everything they can to undermine the very powerful position we have regarding Iran. Even though World War I lasted 4 years, 3 months, and 14 days, World War II lasted 6 years and 1 day, the Korean War lasted 3 years, 1 month, and 2 days, the Vietnam War lasted 19 years, 5 months, and 29 days, and the Iraq War lasted 8 years, 8 months, and 28 days, they like to say I promised to defeat Iran in 6 weeks; while in reality, from a military perspective, this was accomplished much faster. But I will not let them pressure the United States into a rushed agreement; an agreement that could have been better than this.

    I read in the fake media that I am supposedly under "pressure" to reach an agreement. This is not true! I am under no pressure; although everything will come to a conclusion relatively quickly. Time is not my enemy; the only thing that matters is that after 47 years, we finally organize this chaos that previous presidents created due to their lack of courage or foresight regarding Iran.

    We have entered this endeavor and will see it through correctly, and we will not allow weak and pathetic Democrats — who are all traitors — who have talked for years about the dangers of Iran and said something must be done, but now that I am the one doing it, to belittle the achievements of our military and the Trump administration. This operation is being executed very precisely; on a scale similar to Venezuela, but with larger and more complex operations. The result will be the same.

    During my first term, I built the largest military our country has ever seen, including the establishment of the Space Force. In my second term, I will rightly and wisely use our military to solve the problems that others have left for us with much less understanding and competence. Let’s make America great again!

    Trump's post, machine translation:
    The agreement we are shaping with Iran will be far better than the JCPOA; the agreement commonly referred to as the "Iran nuclear deal" that Barack Hussein Obama and sleepy Joe Biden crafted; one of the worst agreements ever made regarding our national security. That agreement was a guaranteed pathway to obtaining a nuclear weapon; something that will neither happen nor can happen in the agreement we are currently working on.

    They practically loaded $1.7 billion in "green" cash onto a Boeing 757 and sent it to Iran for the Iranian leaders to spend however they wanted. He drained all the cash from the banks in Washington D.C., Virginia, and Maryland. Bankers said they had never seen anything like it before. Additionally, hundreds of billions of dollars were also paid to Iran.

    If I had not canceled that "agreement," nuclear weapons would have been used against Israel and throughout the Middle East, including against valuable U.S. military bases. Fake media, like David Ignatius, the so-called "lightweight journalist" of the Washington Post, love to talk about the JCPOA while knowing full well that it was a dangerous and complete embarrassment for our country.

    If an agreement is reached during the "Trump" era, it will guarantee peace, security, and safety not only for Israel and the Middle East but for Europe, America, and the entire world. This agreement will be something the whole world will take pride in; not like the years of shame and humiliation we have been forced to endure due to weak and cowardly leadership.

In addition to the deep historical distrust that exists in Iran regarding the past behavior and actions of the U.S. government, the unconstructive and contradictory approach of U.S. officials in recent days carries a bitter message: they want Iran to surrender.

    While the leaders of the Islamic Republic still claim they have no intention of participating in any negotiations, the President of the United States says that his high-level delegation will arrive in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, in a few hours.

    The New York Post reported on Monday, citing Donald Trump, that the American delegation, led by J.D. Vance and including Stuy Witkoff and Jared Kushner, has headed to Islamabad for another round of negotiations with Tehran.

    This comes as Iranian officials have described the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports in the Persian Gulf as a "violation of the ceasefire" and stated that they currently have no plans to participate in the second round of peace talks with the U.S.

    Trump threatened again yesterday that if this round of negotiations does not yield his desired results, power plants and infrastructure in Iran will once again be targeted.

    Hamid Asafi, a political activist, has announced that on March 5 of last year, following an armed raid by agents at his home, he was arrested without a judicial warrant and severely beaten.

    According to him, the agents broke down the door to enter and after his arrest, transferred him to one of the facilities affiliated with the Ministry of Intelligence. There, they initially mistakenly identified him as one of the signatories of a political statement regarding "transition from the Islamic Republic and holding a referendum," and then accused him of "having connections with the Israeli government."

    Asafi states that after several hours, the agents announced that his arrest was a "mistake" and that his name had been mistakenly included in the list of detainees. However, he emphasizes that during his detention, he was subjected to severe violence.

    He reports that about three weeks after this incident, he experienced severe physical symptoms and ultimately underwent surgery due to bleeding in two areas of his brain.

    This political activist, while rejecting the notion of an "administrative error," considers it a sign of a recurring pattern of violent encounters and has warned about the implications for the personal safety of individuals.

    The internet is not going to return to how it was for everyone. Only certain websites and services will be opened, and that too with specific IPs, domains, and ports. This means that if previously users could choose where to go, now the government determines in advance which places will be open and which will not. In simple terms, if the street was open before and you could choose where to go in the city, now you are only allowed to go to those few predetermined neighborhoods.

    This document also shows other restrictions. For example, the size of files sent in domestic messaging apps at any one time should not exceed 5 megabytes. While even the size of a one-minute video recorded on a mobile phone often exceeds this limit. Or, for instance, a regular photo might be between 2 to 5 megabytes, which practically means sending one or two mobile photos.
