    Shahrzad Shahbazi, one of the lawyers for the defendants in the "Ali Khani Square of Isfahan" case and the lawyer for Alireza Sepahi, has rejected the narrative of state media, stating that the charge of killing law enforcement officers has not been communicated to any of the defendants in this case, and the court has not addressed this charge either. So far, five of the defendants in this case have been executed, and seven others are at risk of execution.

    The lawyer's statements come in response to the publication of an interview in state media, in which a woman, introduced as the wife of one of the deceased officers, accuses the defendants of killing and burning the officers. The release of this interview follows increased criticism of the execution of sentences, particularly the execution of Alireza Sepahi.

    Shahbazi has also questioned the presence of this woman at the execution site, asking on what basis she was allowed to be present when the case was not about retribution and personal rights. On Saturday, October 10, 2025, Shahbazi wrote in a message on Instagram: "The charge of murder has absolutely not been communicated to any of the defendants in the Ali Khani Square and Shahid Square cases." She emphasized that the issue of "burning the officers in the context of premeditated murder" has neither been addressed in court nor was it among the charges mentioned in the verdict. Shahbazi stated that the reason the Revolutionary Court did not address the murder issue was due to a lack of jurisdiction to handle this charge.

    The Ali Khani Square case was formed after the killing of four special unit officers during the protests on January 7, 2025, in Isfahan. State media had previously released videos of the defendants' confessions during interrogations, scene reenactments, and trial sessions in the first branch of the Revolutionary Court of Isfahan; confessions that human rights organizations consider to be coerced and invalid. Alireza Sepahi was executed early on Tuesday, October 3. Maya Sato, the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in Iran, expressed serious concerns about the torture of the defendants and the lack of fair trial in this case in response to the execution. According to Sato, the sentence was carried out while Sepahi's lawyer was still trying to have the case reviewed. Sepahi had previously been on the verge of execution in public but was transferred to the hospital due to a heart attack. That night, citizens stayed in Ali Khani Square until dawn to prevent the execution of sentences.

    The judiciary of the Islamic Republic announced the execution of a man accused of killing a law enforcement officer in Bandar Abbas. This law enforcement officer has been identified as Reza Ehtirami, a member of the rescue unit in Bandar Abbas.

    The accused was previously referred to as "Daniel," and it was claimed that this murder occurred four years ago during a confrontation with fuel smugglers, as a result of being run over by a vehicle driven by the executed man.

    On Saturday, the judiciary of the Islamic Republic also announced the execution of Jaber Khosravi, a prisoner sentenced to qisas (retribution) in the case of the murder of a law enforcement officer.

    This case dates back to an incident at Velayat Hospital in Damghan on September 2, 2022; an incident in which, according to judicial officials, the officer's weapon was taken, and he lost his life after being hit by two bullets.

    Saturday's attack was the third attack this week by Houthi rebels supported by the Islamic Republic in Yemen on Riyadh International Airport. The Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack. Aligned with the Islamic Republic's efforts to destabilize the Strait of Hormuz, the Houthis have attempted to attack ships in the Bab al-Mandab Strait, which connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean, and is considered a vital strait.

    According to reports on Saturday, the routes of all flights from Riyadh were changed, and airport activities were temporarily halted.

    The Saudi Arabian Civil Aviation Organization confirmed on Saturday, October 10, that following an attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, which resulted in injuries to several individuals, operations at the airport have been halted.

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, has responded by stating that he is aware of the attack and will make a decision regarding it.

    In response to a question from reporters about whether the U.S. will join Saudi Arabia in its war against the Houthis, Donald Trump said, "It's possible. We will look into it. We just learned about the recent attack. We will make a decision. We will act very quickly."

    Earlier, some media outlets reported that the Riyadh government had requested the U.S. to target the Houthis with military strikes.

    Axios news agency reported a week ago that several high-ranking national security officials from the Trump administration met for several hours in an undisclosed meeting at Camp David to discuss the next steps for the U.S. in the Iran war and also in the conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis in Yemen.

    Despite the official confirmation of the attack and the injuries, Saudi officials have not yet disclosed the exact number of casualties or the extent of the damage to the airport.

    The Houthis, supported by the Islamic Republic, have not claimed responsibility for Saturday's attack at the time of this report.

    The Saudi Arabian Civil Aviation Organization confirmed on Saturday, October 10, that operations at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh have been halted following an attack on the airport that injured several individuals.

    A diplomatic source told AFP that Houthi rebels from Yemen launched a missile attack on the airport around 3 PM local time. According to initial reports, dozens of people were injured in the attack.

    The Wall Street Journal also reported, citing Saudi officials, that the missiles fired by the Houthis directly hit Terminal 3 of the airport.

    A hospital source told AFP that five of the injured have been admitted to the intensive care unit. An eyewitness also stated that while at gate 403 of the domestic flights terminal, they witnessed a missile strike near gate 401, injuring passengers.

    The witness told AFP: "I saw gate 401 being targeted and people were injured right in front of my eyes. Everyone was running away."

    Saturday's attack occurred while Riyadh airport had already been targeted by Houthi attacks on Wednesday and Thursday. These attacks resulted in a total of four deaths and several injuries, and severely damaged a passenger aircraft belonging to the Saudi airline.

    Three Saudi citizens, including a pilot, were killed in the Thursday attacks, and one Sudanese citizen was killed in the Wednesday attack. The Houthis have claimed responsibility for these attacks.

    The escalation of missile attacks on Saudi Arabia has occurred following the resumption of widespread clashes between the Houthis and forces of the Riyadh-backed government in Yemen.

    Trump stated that after discussions with Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, it was agreed that Moscow would immediately supply over 300,000 tons of diesel to the American and global markets, with an additional 500,000 tons to be delivered in November.

    According to him, Russia will then supply another one million tons of diesel to the market, and considering the state of the country's refineries, an additional three million tons will be delivered in a short period.

    The President of the United States said that Washington's complete control over the Strait of Hormuz and the increase in Russian diesel supply will quickly reduce the price of this fuel for American consumers and other countries around the world.

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, said that if the Iranian government were to acquire nuclear weapons, it could potentially target European countries and cities like Los Angeles and San Diego in the U.S. after attacking Israel and other parts of the Middle East.

    On Friday, October 8, during Columbus Day celebrations at the White House, Trump stated that the Islamic Republic was only two to three weeks away from obtaining nuclear weapons before the U.S. B-2 bombers attacked. He mentioned that if the Islamic Republic achieved this weapon, the Iranian government would quickly use it, initially targeting Israel and then other parts of the Middle East.

    The U.S. President added that European countries would likely be at risk of such an attack before the U.S., and cities like Los Angeles and San Diego could also be potential targets. Trump said, "We no longer need to worry about this. They will not obtain nuclear weapons."

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, on Friday, October 8, during the Columbus Day event at the White House, referred to military conflicts with the Islamic Republic, stating that this situation would soon come to an end and fuel prices would significantly decrease.

    The U.S. President also commented on the military capabilities of the Islamic Republic, saying, "They have no military force, no navy, no air force, and no air defense equipment." He further indicated that the U.S. has blocked shipping routes due to a naval blockade.

    These statements come as Washington continues to impose economic pressures on the Islamic Republic, pursuing maritime restrictions and sanctions related to Iran's oil exports. The Strait of Hormuz has also become one of the main focal points of military and economic tensions between the two countries.

And if you want to know what the real heavy cost is, just imagine what would happen if they bombed San Diego and/or Los Angeles?

    Margaret Hamilton, an American scientist and a pioneer in software engineering who played a crucial role in the landing of the first American astronauts on the moon, passed away at the age of 90. She led a team of specialists who designed and developed the software used in NASA's Apollo space missions.

    The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) confirmed Hamilton's passing, stating that she died on Wednesday, October 8, 1405, corresponding to September 30, 2026. In a statement, the institute described Hamilton as a pioneer in computer science who played a significant role in the development of this field before the profession of software engineering became widespread.

    Hamilton worked at MIT from 1959 until the mid-1970s, managing the software engineering department. The team under her leadership designed the guidance and control software for the Apollo 11 spacecraft, which played a decisive role in Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's historic landing on the moon in 1969.

    During this mission, the spacecraft's computer encountered a processing overload just moments before landing, but the software designed by Hamilton's team was able to continue the landing operation by prioritizing tasks.

    Barack Obama, the former President of the United States, awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016 in recognition of Hamilton's scientific achievements and her role in advancing space technology.
