    Tasnims claim: America has backed down from its recent amendments!

    The Tasnim news agency, affiliated with the IRGC, has reported:
    As of this moment, the text of the agreement has not received final approval from the relevant authorities in Iran.

    ▪️ Follow-ups by Tasnim's reporter from informed sources indicate that the latest development is that the military and diplomatic pressure from the U.S. to change the 14-article text has not yielded results, and the U.S. has communicated through a Qatari intermediary that there is no need for the recent amendments.

    ▪️ According to these sources, Trump has recently begun applying pressure, threats, and military actions, and through other means, he attempted to change Iran's positions from both sides, but ultimately Iran did not accept the new changes.

    ▪️ However, this text still requires review and finalization by the relevant institutions in Iran, and until then, other speculations and news are not valid.

    ♦️Explosion sound heard near Sirik beach; details remain unclear

    🔹Local sources in Hormozgan province report hearing an explosion in the sea, about two kilometers from Sirik beach. The cause and source of this sound have not yet been confirmed.

    🔹Local sources in the Sirik area (Hormozgan province) say that the explosion sound in the sea was heard at a distance of about two kilometers from the shore.

    🔹There is still no precise information about the nature and cause of this explosion, but considering the guidelines regarding the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, this potential situation may be related.

    Ismail Baqaei emphasized that a significant portion of the text of the final agreement has been completed, but due to the contradictory positions of the U.S., there has been turbulence and disruption in reaching an agreement.

    In this interview, the spokesperson said: "Claims about the time and place of the agreement are merely media speculation, and until the relevant authorities of the system reach a final conclusion on each component of the text of the agreement, discussing the form of signing and its location is pointless."

    Mr. Baqaei pointed out that the text of the agreement was already clear to us, but the American side kept raising unreasonable demands, reiterating that Iran will not back down from its principled positions and red lines under pressure and threat.

    President Trump was asked if he could bring this agreement to fruition or not, since he had been close to it before. He said, "I am very confident."

    Axios reported, citing three informed sources, that the main disagreements between Tehran and Washington regarding a memorandum of understanding were resolved on Wednesday during discussions between officials of the Islamic Republic and Qatari mediators.

    According to the report, Iranian officials announced to several countries on Thursday that negotiations in Tehran had led to a principled agreement, but Mojtaba Khamenei must issue the final approval.

    These sources noted that both the Iranians and the Qataris emphasized that the U.S. attacks on Wednesday night significantly increased Iran's doubts about Trump's true intentions.

    In a brief phone call with the New York Post, he stated, "Almost everything is finalized."
    nypost
    CNN, citing an informed source, reported that U.S. officials believe that this week's meetings between Iranian and Qatari officials in Tehran helped clarify some of the remaining ambiguous and key points in the agreement with the United States. These disagreements mainly involve details on how to advance future negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program and the timeline for lifting sanctions and financial openings for Tehran.

    According to the report, Iran sent its latest proposed draft agreement with the U.S. through Qatari mediators earlier this week. This comes after Donald Trump had expressed dissatisfaction with the prolonged response from Iran about two weeks ago, calling for a stricter tone in the nuclear section of the agreement.

    Nevertheless, this week's consultations through Qatar helped narrow the gaps. U.S. officials remained in constant contact with the mediators throughout this period, even during days when Washington and Tehran were engaged in a series of exchanges of fire and military attacks against each other.

    Bloomberg News reported, citing "informed sources," that senior national security officials from the United Arab Emirates and Iran met for the first time since the start of the U.S. and Israeli war against Tehran.

    This meeting, which took place this week, indicates a significant shift in the approach of both sides, according to Bloomberg, occurring at a time when both countries have increasingly recognized the importance of calmer bilateral relations. The news agency states that its sources requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter.

    According to the report, UAE leaders want their ambitious economic plans, including billion-dollar investments in increasing oil production and establishing artificial intelligence data centers, to continue without disruption. This relationship is also important for Tehran, as the UAE was one of Tehran's largest trading partners and a crucial route for transferring Iran's sanctioned oil before the war began.

    Bloomberg's sources indicate that Abu Dhabi's recent contact with Iran was primarily aimed at achieving some form of de-escalation with a government it considers an enemy.

    Since the start of the Middle East war on February 28 of last year, Iran has targeted the UAE more than any other country. Abu Dhabi has also responded several times and has taken the most aggressive stance towards Iran among its Arab neighbors. However, it seems that the UAE is now following a path similar to that of Qatar and Saudi Arabia, seeking to reduce tensions through diplomacy despite being targeted by Iran and its affiliated forces.

    According to Bloomberg, Saudi Arabia, whose energy facilities and military bases have been targeted, resumed contacts with Tehran at the foreign minister level in early April. Qatar, whose large Ras Laffan natural gas facilities were attacked, has been particularly keen on reconciliation and hosted a delegation from Iran late last month, increasingly playing a mediating role between Washington and Tehran. Bloomberg emphasized that all three Arab countries recognize the necessity of coexisting with a neighbor across the Persian Gulf, with a population of 90 million and significant military capabilities, even in light of the extensive damage inflicted by U.S. and Israeli bombings.

    On Thursday, CNN reported, citing a senior Pentagon official and two U.S. government officials, that the U.S. military's plans to seize Kharg Island in southern Iran had been prepared "months ago," but were set aside due to being "too risky."

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, recently expressed his desire to take control of this island as one of the most important infrastructures for Iran's oil exports.

    CNN quoted U.S. officials as saying: "The prevailing view in the White House and the Pentagon is that seizing Kharg Island or destroying its energy infrastructure would effectively bankrupt Iran and reduce its capabilities to the point where it would no longer be able to continue the war."

    At the same time, government officials have told the U.S. President that such an operation would require a large number of ground forces and "could lead to heavy casualties among American troops."

    CNN claimed that the Pentagon and the White House have considered any action to seize Kharg Island as a "last resort"; an action that, according to U.S. officials, "could change the balance of the war, but would come at a very high cost."
