Iran's Khamenei: US threats mask fear of Iran's rise
Shafaq News – Tehran On Tuesday, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei accused the United States and its allies of using nuclear and human rights claims as pretexts to undermine the Islamic Republic. Speaking at a ceremony in Tehran commemorating the 40th day since the deaths of Iranian personnel in the recent war with Israel, Khamenei asserted that the true motive behind Western hostility lies in Iran's ideological and scientific progress, adding that 'the Global Arrogance, led by America, opposes the Iranian people's religion, knowledge, and unity under the banner of Islam and the Quran.' The 12-day war had revealed the nation's resilience and strength, he emphasized, adding, 'The Iranian nation demonstrated power, determination, and capability—acknowledged by the entire world.' On July 28, during a press conference alongside British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, US President Donald Trump, speaking from Turnberry, Scotland, warned Iran against resuming its nuclear activities. Trump claimed that Tehran had been 'sending out nasty signals,' vowing a swift military response if enrichment operations resume. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi responded in a post on X, "If aggression is repeated, we will not hesitate to react in a more decisive manner and in a way that will be IMPOSSIBLE to cover up," without providing more details. Iran, a nation with a rich culture originating from 7000 years of civilization, will never respond to the language of threat and intimidation. Iranians have never bowed down before any foreigners and respond only to knows exactly what happened during the recent… — Seyed Abbas Araghchi (@araghchi) July 28, 2025

Gaza Siege Committee Chief reveals Handala Ship Incident
Shafaq News – Gaza The Head of the International Committee to Break the Siege on Gaza, Zaher Birawi, on Tuesday blamed Arab and Islamic countries for their silence over the Israeli seizure of the Handala ship and accused Western governments of enabling Israeli actions. In an exclusive statement to Shafaq News, Birawi disclosed that Israeli forces had detained the ship and its 21 passengers—comprising international activists, politicians, human rights advocates, doctors, technical crew, and officials from the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. He denounced the raid as 'an act of piracy in the high seas and international waters,' insisting that 'the occupying state has no right to carry out such action, and we hold it fully responsible for the safety of all activists.' Drawing from previous incidents, Birawi explained that those detained are undergoing initial arrest procedures and will likely be brought before an Israeli court on charges of 'attempting to enter the occupying state without a permit or prior approval.' The court, he noted, typically pressures detainees to sign a pledge not to repeat the attempt. 'They will not sign these Israeli documents,' he asserted, adding that courts usually try to persuade them, and if they refuse, issue deportation orders. 'These activists are not attempting to enter Israel,' he clarified. 'They are trying to break the blockade imposed on Palestinians,' which he described as 'illegal and immoral, and not within the rights of the occupying state.' He noted that several activists, due to political considerations and in coordination with the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, signed the documents over the past two days to leave custody and share their accounts with the media. The remaining detainees are still being held at Ashdod Port and are expected to be released within the next two days. Birawi underscored that the core of the mission lies in the message of defiance and resolve these activists embody—individuals who, he said, represent the 'free people of the world' and refuse to remain silent in the face of what he described as Israeli crimes. He confirmed that efforts to break the blockade would continue. He pointed out that governments, including those in the Arab and Islamic world, possess the means to pressure Israel but fail to use them effectively. 'We hold these governments accountable and clear our conscience before the world and history,' he stated, 'by doing all we can to end the war on our people in Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to those being starved as a method of pressure.' Birawi further accused Western governments of active complicity in 'the crimes committed by the occupying state against our people in Gaza,' and in actions against blockade-breaking vessels and international activists. He questioned France's silence despite the presence of French nationals aboard the ship, including a member of the French National Assembly and a representative in the European Parliament. 'Legally, Israel has no right to assault civilians in international waters,' he emphasized, noting that the Handala was intercepted more than 50 nautical miles from Gaza's coast—clearly within international waters. He concluded that the position of Western governments toward their citizens comes as no surprise, 'because—unfortunately—they are already actively supporting Israel, whether through arms deals, silence over its crimes, or political cover in international forums.' Handala ship had been en route to challenge Israel's naval blockade of Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians in the enclave before it was intercepted by Israeli forces last Saturday.

Netherlands bars two hardline Israeli ministers
Amsterdam – The Netherlands has declared Israel's finance and national security ministers persona non grata for inciting violence and urging ethnic cleansing in Gaza. In June, the Netherlands backed a failed Swedish proposal to impose EU sanctions on Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. 'They repeatedly incited settler violence against Palestinians, promoted illegal settlement expansion, and called for ethnic cleansing in Gaza,' Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp told parliament in a letter released late Monday. Smotrich responded on X, saying European leaders had succumbed to 'the lies of radical Islam that is taking over' and 'rising antisemitism'. Ben-Gvir said he would continue to act for Israel, even if he was banned from entering 'all of Europe'. 'In a place where terrorism is tolerated and terrorists are welcomed, a Jewish minister from Israel is unwanted, terrorists are free, and Jews are boycotted,' he wrote on X. Veldkamp said the Netherlands wanted to 'relieve the suffering of the population in Gaza' and was exploring further ways to contribute to humanitarian aid. 'Airdrops of food are relatively expensive and risky,' he said. 'This is why the Netherlands is also taking steps to further support land-based aid delivery.' Aid drops resumed in Gaza on Sunday as Israel announced temporary humanitarian pauses in parts of the besieged territory. Around 2.4 million Palestinians in Gaza are facing what UN aid agencies have warned is a deadly wave of starvation and malnutrition. The UN-backed Integrated Food Security Phase Classification Initiative (IPC) said on Tuesday that famine is unfolding across much of Gaza, with thresholds breached and over 20,000 children treated for acute malnutrition since April. Veldkamp said the Netherlands would push to suspend the trade element of the EU-Israel Association Agreement if Israel fails to meet its humanitarian obligations. 'The summons will also be used to remind Israel to comply with its obligations under international humanitarian law,' he said. After speaking by phone with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said the government's position was 'crystal clear'. 'The people of Gaza must be given immediate, unfettered, safe access to humanitarian aid,' he said. The war in Gaza was sparked by Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel, which resulted in the deaths of 1,219 people, most of them civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official figures. Israel's retaliatory campaign has killed 59,921 Palestinians, also mostly civilians, according to the health ministry in the Hamas-run territory.
