Iranian Ambassador to Iraq, Mohammad Kazem Al-Sadegh: If Trump Is Willing to Return to Nuclear Talks – We Are Prepared to Do So Following the P5+1 Negotiations Model, but Iran Will Not Succumb to Thre
Iranian Ambassador to Iraq Mohammad Kazem Al-Sadegh stated on Al-Sharqiya TV (Iraq) on March 29, 2025, that describing the resistance factions in the region as Iranian proxies is an insult, as these factions are independent and operate in complete freedom. He further emphasized that Iran's ballistic missiles are a defensive measure for the Islamic Republic, and Iran will not allow anyone to impose conditions on this. Al-Sadegh also mentioned that Iran is prepared for dialogue over the nuclear program, following the model of the P5+1 negotiations, whenever the United States or President Trump is willing to return to talks. However, he qualified that Iran will not succumb to rhetoric of threats and intimidation.

Iranian MP Mahmoud Nabavian: U.S. Should Prepare 50,000 Coffins Before Even Taking a Hostile Glance Our Way; If They Block Our Oil Flow – No Other Country's Oil Will Flow
Iranian Majles Member Mahmoud Nabavian said on Channel 3 (Iran) on June 16, 2025, that countries in the region - including Israel and the United States - should be warned that if they attempt to block Iran's oil exports or disrupt domestic supply, no other country will be able to export or access oil for domestic use either. 'They should take my threat seriously,' he warned. Nabavian said that Iranian missiles could reach American bases in the region within 2–4 minutes, making them impossible to intercept, and added that striking an American destroyer is well within Iran's capabilities. He said Iran is monitoring Diego Garcia and has plans for it. He warned the U.S. that before even contemplating aggression against Iran, it should prepare 50,000 coffins for its troops, 'before they even dare take a hostile glance at the Iranian nation.' He also said Iran would retaliate against Israel for the assassination of its Chief of Staff with assassinations of its own, whether during or after the war.

WhatsApp blocked after Iran urges public to delete app
Menlo Park – WhatsApp said it was 'concerned' that its services would be blocked in Iran after a state broadcaster urged the public to delete the messaging app, saying it was sharing data with arch-rival Israel. State television IRIB appealed to Iranians on Tuesday to delete WhatsApp from their phones, alleging that the app collected users' personal data and 'last known locations and communications,' and shared them with Israel. On Wednesday, Israel and Iran exchanged fire for the sixth straight day, with Israel saying it struck a nuclear site near Tehran. A WhatsApp spokesperson dismissed the IRIB claims, saying all messages sent on the app were 'end-to-end encrypted,' with only the sender and recipient able to access them. 'We're concerned these false reports will be an excuse for our services to be blocked at a time when people need them the most,' the spokesperson told AFP. 'We do not track your precise location, we don't keep logs of who everyone is messaging and we do not track the personal messages people are sending one another,' they said. WhatsApp also does not 'provide bulk information to any government.' Israel launched a massive bombing campaign against Iran on Friday that has hit nuclear and military facilities, as well as residential areas. Iran has responded by launching missiles and drones, and early Wednesday said it had fired hypersonic missiles at Israel. Tehran announced Friday that it was placing temporary restrictions on the internet for the duration of the conflict. Numerous sites and apps have since been at least partially inaccessible. The authorities appealed to the public on Tuesday to 'minimize their use of equipment connected to the internet and to take appropriate precautions' online. For their own safety, civil servants and their security teams have been banned from using any connected devices, including smartphones, watches and laptops during the Israeli air offensive. In the wake of nationwide protests triggered by the 2022 death in custody of Mahsa Amini, Iranian authorities had blocked several apps and online services, including WhatsApp.
