Iranians have termed the repeated allegations of weapons supply to Russia without providing any evidence a form of psychological warfare waged by the US and the EU

In a provocative move, the US announced deployment of 3,000 additional troops in West Asia on Monday, claiming alleged Iranian threat to ships in the region 

The Syrian Foreign Ministry has recently stated that the repeated Israeli airstrikes inside its territory were coordinated with extremist forces in the country that are fighting the government 

Iran asserted its right to defend itself after the failed drone strikes at the military workshop complex in Isfahan late on Saturday night

Last week, the European parliament adopted a resolution asking member countries to designate the IRGC a terrorist organization over its alleged “terrorist activities, suppression of protests, and supplying of drones to Russia”

Soleimani and Muhandis were key figures in the fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. They were assassinated in a drone attack on January 3, 2020, ordered by former US President Donald Trump

Colonel Hassan Sayyad Khodaei, who had served in the al-Quds forces in Syria against ISIS, is the second high ranking IRGC official assassinated after General Qassem Soleimani in January 2020

The bill is considered to be an attempt to block the growing US pressure on Arab countries to “normalize” relations with Israel under its so-called Abraham Accords

Israel has carried out thousands of unprovoked attacks inside Syria since the war in the country began in 2011. Thursday’s attack was the second such strike in less than a week and eighth since the beginning of 2022

Reports in Middle East Eye as well as some US media outlets claimed that Israel has been operating anti-Iranian bases in Iraqi Kurdistan and was responsible for the attack on Iran’s drone facility in Tabriz a few weeks back

Muqtada al-Sadr, whose party emerged as the largest party in last year’s parliamentary elections in Iraq, initially condemned the attack but later issued a statement asking for investigation into Iranian claims of Israeli bases in the country

According to the Tasnim News Agency, Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps personnel landed on a tanker which the US was trying to confiscate and later steered it into Iranian waters
