    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, referred to the Gaza peace agreement, stating that if the U.S. had not attacked the nuclear facilities of the Islamic Republic, there would be no peace in the Middle East today. He added that the Islamic Republic is no longer the "bully" of the Middle East, and countries do not fear it anymore.

    The U.S. President described the role of the Islamic Republic in the region, saying: "We had a bully; that bully was Iran, the bully of the Middle East. For years, it was referred to this way. Iran was the bully of the Middle East, but it is no longer the bully of the Middle East."

    Trump considered the attack on the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities as the main factor in the formation of the peace agreement, adding: "What we did was incredible, and it was because of that action that we were able to establish peace. If we hadn't done that, there would have been no chance for peace because the countries I mentioned and other countries could never have signed an agreement. They were afraid. They were really afraid."

    He continued by saying that if the U.S. had not taken this action, the Islamic Republic would have acquired nuclear weapons within two months. Trump added: "They were very close to having nuclear weapons, and we dealt a heavy blow to them, and it was a complete destruction."

    Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump's special representative for Middle East affairs, described the massacre of protesters in Iran as "horrific" on Wednesday, January 21, during the Davos summit in Switzerland, and called for a change in the behavior of the Islamic Republic government.
    Witkoff emphasized that the United States is not negotiating directly with Iran, but he has been in contact with Iranian officials.
    He added that achieving a diplomatic agreement is conditional on a serious change in Tehran's behavior, and so far, there have been no signs of the Islamic Republic's intention to change its course.

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, said on Tuesday that he has issued "very decisive" orders to ensure that the U.S. "wipes them off the face of the earth" if the Islamic Republic attempts to carry out threats of assassination against him.

    In an exclusive interview with the "Katie Pavlich Tonight" program on NewsNation, coinciding with the anniversary of the start of his second presidential term, Trump stated: "If the slightest thing happens, their entire country will explode. I will hit them so hard that it will be unprecedented. But I have issued very strong orders for this."

    Trump also criticized former President Joe Biden, saying his administration did not respond decisively enough to the threats from the Islamic Republic. According to Trump, the failure to respond firmly has emboldened Tehran to continue its threats. He added: "A president must defend the president," emphasizing that even if such threats are directed at someone other than the president, his response will be firm and uncompromising.

    Trump once again referred to the Islamic Republic's use of transnational threats and intimidation, stating that any practical action from Tehran will be met with a response that carries a heavy and deterrent cost for the Iranian regime.

    Three Days Among the Corpses; The Shocking Account of Rescuing a Protester from Kahrizak

    Exclusive: According to a narrative received by the Iran Human Rights Documentation Center, a family spent three entire days searching for their son, who had left home to protest and did not return during the nationwide demonstrations. In anxiety and uncertainty, the family first searched hospitals, then went to Behesht Zahra, and ultimately their search led them to Kahrizak; a place where shocking images of the numerous corpses of protesters killed during the demonstrations circulated on social media and in the media.

    In Kahrizak, the family was forced to search among a multitude of corpses for their child; a place where hope and terror were intertwined. Finally, despite all their fears, they found their son alive. He had been severely injured by a bullet and, according to this account, had remained motionless for three whole days without food or water, terrified of being shot in the head by the authorities, hidden inside a plastic cover designated for the deceased.

    According to this report, the family eventually succeeded in transferring him to a hospital for treatment.

    This narrative, while bitter, illustrates a rare moment of survival amidst death and simultaneously provides a shocking image of the conditions surrounding the suppression of protests, the treatment of the injured, and the pressures faced by families seeking access to medical care; families who have become lost between hospitals, morgues, and security centers in search of their loved ones.

    It is worth mentioning that due to the severe internet shutdown and restrictions in Iran, independently verifying this account is not possible.

    Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi, in a message addressed to the people of Iran, declared Friday, January 23rd, as a "national mourning" day in memory of the great massacre of the national revolution. Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi wrote: "My dear compatriots, the atrocities of the past days in our wounded homeland were crimes against humanity. The first phase of this great Iranian uprising plunged the world into shock and disbelief with a frenzied massacre. The blood shed by thousands of Iranians cannot be trampled upon. These valiant children of the homeland sacrificed their lives for Iran and poured their blood at the roots of freedom."

    Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi continued: "You, the great nation of Iran, have lovingly called me 'Mother of Iran.' Today, Mother Iran mourns her fallen children and, along with other mothers of the martyrs who have even been denied the right to grieve, I declare Friday, January 23rd, 1404, as a national mourning day in memory of this great massacre. I ask all free Iranians, wherever they are in the world, to rise at 12 noon local time and observe a minute of silence to honor the fallen children of Iran. During this important minute, let us think, reflect, and pledge to ourselves that we will not rest until the freedom of our Aryan homeland is achieved."

    Shahbanu Farah Pahlavi concluded: "I urge all Persian-language media around the world to cooperate fully in broadcasting, reminding, and executing this message. Rest assured that light will triumph over darkness."

    ♦️Donald Trump, the President of the United States, in response to a journalist's question about Iran, stated that officials of the Islamic Republic intended to execute 837 people, but after his warning, they were dissuaded from carrying out this action. Trump said he informed Iran that if these executions took place, "a very bad day" awaited them, and ultimately "no one was executed." He noted that he cannot make definitive statements about the future, but it seems the execution plans have been taken off the agenda, although last week these executions were supposed to take place on Wednesday or Thursday. Trump concluded by saying that we must wait for future developments regarding Iran. He did not respond to the journalist's question about the removal of the military option.

    🔸Mike Sato, the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in Iran, says the number of fatalities from recent protests in Iran is on the rise, and there may be grounds for an investigation into "crimes against humanity" by international bodies.
    @VahidHeadline

    🔸Members of the European Parliament stood and applauded for about a minute in honor of Iranian protesters instead of observing a minute of silence. Roberta Metsola, President of the European Parliament, addressed the members in a public session, stating: "I know many of you wish to pay tribute to the thousands killed in the streets of Iran with silence, but the people of Iran do not need silence." She had previously banned the entry of diplomats and other representatives of the Islamic Republic of Iran into the buildings of this institution.

    🔸The President of the European Commission suggested that following the bloody crackdown on protesters in Iran, further restrictions should be placed on the export of drone and missile technologies to Iran.

    🔸Prince Reza Pahlavi referred to Ali Khamenei as "an anti-Iranian criminal" whose hands are "stained with the blood of tens of thousands of Iranians." In a video message directed at Khamenei, he stated, "You, your regime, and all your mercenaries will answer for every drop of blood you have shed; without exception." He pointed out that, similar to the trial and punishment of Nazi criminals in Nuremberg, Khamenei and his accomplices have "no escape route" and "no place to hide," and they too will be tried and punished. Reza Pahlavi emphasized that "the killers of the Iranian people will have no immunity," and addressed the people of Iran, saying: "You are not alone. Your resistance has changed history. You stand at the forefront of freedom." He added: "Have faith in yourselves; in your unity; in your courage; in your greatness... This regime fears you and your power. We will not allow our sorrow to turn into despair." Prince Reza Pahlavi also mentioned that while "the grief of losing the best children of Iran is heavy, we will transform this grief into conscious anger and an indomitable will against Khamenei and all his domestic and foreign agents." He simultaneously urged the people to "be ready," as "the moment to return to the streets will come."

    🔸Shirin Ebadi, Nobel Peace Prize laureate, emphasized in a recent interview with the French newspaper Libération that the Islamic Republic system is "fundamentally unreformable," and the power structure is arranged in such a way that any attempt to improve conditions from within the system fails. This human rights activist criticized the approach of Western countries towards Iran, stating that "pragmatic" policies and attempts to "compromise" with the regime have only helped perpetuate the status quo. She calls on the international community to stand with the people of Iran and increase pressure on the core of power.
    @VahidHeadline

    🔸The National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly issued a statement addressed to Donald Trump, the President of the United States, declaring that any aggression against Ali Khamenei would mean declaring war on the entire Islamic world, and the U.S. should expect a fatwa for jihad from Islamic scholars and a response from soldiers of Islam around the world. In this statement, the National Security Commission referred to Donald Trump as "insane" and emphasized that the U.S. President should be punished for what they termed "the killing of Qassem Soleimani and thousands of innocents in Iran."
